Erli Zhang is only willing to help the self-respecting, self-loving and self-reliant people, but the second is to say that Liu Fengle wants to go to Putuo Mountain for the second time this time, not for other attractions of Putuo Mountain, but to pay homage to one of the symbols of Putuo Mountain again, the large bronze statue of Guanyin in the South China Sea completed at the end of the old year of the blade.

The bronze statue of Guanyin in the South China Sea is made of a new type of imitation gold and bronze casting. The total height of the Nanhai Guanyin statue is Numi, of which the Buddha statue is old rice, the lotus platform is 2 meters, and the base is four square meters of calcium. The Buddha statue weighs more than 70 tons. The statue of Guanyin Buddha in the South China Sea shows the Buddha, the left hand holds the Falun, and the right hand applies the fearless seal, which is wonderful and kind, and embodies the spirit of Guanyin Bodhisattva "seeing all beings with discerning eyes and vowing to be as deep as the sea".

Liu Fengle stood in the square in front of the statue of Guanyin, raised his head, stared at the face of the bronze statue of Guanyin, refused to say anything, and did not make any other movements. Liu Kunyun and Jiang Meihan stood behind Liu Fengle and silently accompanied the old father.

After standing for about half an hour, Liu Fengle breathed a sigh of relief, clasped his hands together, and prayed silently, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, may you ensure that my two sons, two daughters-in-law, and two grandsons and one granddaughter will be safe and sound for the rest of my life."

"Dad, let's go, Liu Kunyun hugged his father's arm.

Liu Fengle nodded, "Let's find a place to rest for a while." Yun'er, let Shiqing and them go play, you don't have to accompany me here, a bad old man, they are still young, and it is the time when there is nowhere to volatilize with a lot of energy, let's play. ”

Liu Kunyun said to Liu Shiqing, let Liu Shiqing take someone to play, he, Jiang Yuanhan and Mu Kangzhu accompanied the old man to drink tea and rest in the teahouse at the bottom of the mountain, and when Liu Shiqing had fun, he went to the teahouse to find them.

Liu Shiqing nodded, and then led everyone around. Liu Shiqing was very interested in this meter-high bronze statue of Guanyin, and walked around the bronze statue of Guanyin a few times, and the more he looked at it, the more interesting he felt.

Uncle Xiaoshi, what are you looking at? Are you thinking about deducting a piece of gold from the bronze statue? Chen Junjie does not believe in Buddhism and has little interest in this Guanyin statue.

Liu Shiqing also doesn't believe in Buddhism, but he is not under the bronze statue of Guanyin, and he abruptly surprises this female bodhisattva who enjoys a good reputation among the people. "Junwei, you don't look at the occasion when you're joking. If you let the followers of Buddhism know that you are so abrupt, Guanyin beware that they tear you apart

Sister Chen shrugged her shoulders, "I'm telling you the truth, Uncle Xiao, I've heard of this bronze statue of Guanyin, the gold content of the face alone is as high as a kilogram of diamonds, thirteen catties, how much does it cost to convert it into money?"

Liu Shiqing shook his head helplessly, and talked about the Guanyin statue with Chen Junjie, a little bit of a feeling about the cow playing the piano, let him go. Anyway, Chen Junwei has his own measure, and this joke is just to talk to himself, and other people can't hear it if they want to.

"Mr. Liu, which Guanyin do you say this Guanyin bronze statue is? Is it Guanyin for sending a child or for marriage Guanyin? Tao Haotian leaned over to Liu Shiqing and asked in a whisper.

"Does Guanyin manage marriage?" Liu Shiqing was confused, "I've only heard of Guanyin sending children, Shuiyue Guanyin, Guanyin in white, Guanyin in fish baskets, and I haven't heard of Guanyin in marriage?" ”

Chen Junjie patted Tao Haotian, "Taozi, I knew that you wanted to marry a daughter-in-law and wanted to go crazy, but the gods in this heaven have their own responsibilities, if you want to ask for marriage, you should go to worship the old moon, if you want to believe in the words of the Western gods, you can also worship Cupid."

"Amitabha, the layman's words are bad As soon as Chen Junwei's voice fell, a loud voice sounded. Everyone followed the sound and saw an old monk dressed plainly, bald. There are incense scars on his head, and his feet are on monk's shoes. Dressed in gray monk's robes. At this time, the old monk was sitting cross-legged on the ground, with an incense burner the size of a bowl beside him, with sandalwood inserted in it, and in front of the old monk, it was a wooden fish.

This old monk has been here for a long time, and the last time Liu Shiqing accompanied his grandfather to worship the bronze statue of Guanyin in the South China Sea, he saw this old monk chanting and chanting Buddha here.

Liu Shiqing is very interested in this, the old monk is very interested, because as early as the Zhao year, the Buddhist Association in the mainland abolished a rule, that is, to burn incense scars on the top of the monk's head, the reason is that the practice of burning the scar on the head of the ordained person when taking the ordination "is not the original ritual system of Buddhism, because it is harmful to physical health, it will be abolished in the future, and from now on, the newly ordained Han monks will never have a scar on the top of their heads." This old monk is extraordinary, the incense scar on the top of his head is extremely dazzling, and it is difficult for people not to pay attention.

The incense scar is a typical marker of monks and nuns, but since the abolition of the decay year, it is a confusing question to meet a person wearing monk's robes, whether it is a real monk or a real nun, which is one of the reasons why many people pretend to be monks and nuns in modern times. Without the incense scar, anyone pretending to be a monk or nun will have one less insurmountable difficulty, and it will be much easier to cheat. However, this old monk has a scar on his head, and there is basically no possibility that he is a liar.

"Master, are you talking to us?" Tao hattian turned his head and asked.

"All laymen, "Lengyan Sutra" Guanyin said, "I have the heart of the Buddha, after all." It can make offerings to the ten directions with all kinds of treasures, and reach the sentient beings of the six realms of the Dharma Realm. Ask for a wife to get a wife and a son, ask for samadhi to get samadhi, ask for a long life to live a long life, and so on, ask for a great nirvana to get a great nirvana.

In the future, you will recite more Buddhist scriptures, and you will know that Guanyin Bodhisattva is merciful and compassionate, as long as you are sincere, you will respond to your request. Do more good deeds and less evil deeds, and after death you will be able to go to the Western Heaven Elysium

The old monk probably knew that Liu Shiqing didn't look like a Buddhist, so he didn't say too many obscure Buddhist scriptures, but the sentence "Ask for a wife and get a wife, ask for a son and get a son." But it was Liu Shiqing and a few of them who listened to it.

Tao hated the sky and was overjoyed, and pulled Chen Junyan away, "Did you hear what the master said?" Guanyin Bodhisattva has everything you need, you are not too young, it is time to marry a wife, follow me to beg. When the time comes, the two of us will get married together and have a group wedding, if my wife can have a son in the future, if your wife gives birth to a daughter. Let's let the two of them get married, and we will be in-laws

Sister Chen took a sip, "Do you want to be beautiful?" Why did your wife give birth to a son, not mine?

Tao hattian said half-seriously and half-jokingly: "I am here to give you the benefits for the sake of the two of us who have been comrades-in-arms for so many years."

"The benefits? The benefits of fart, why didn't I see it Chen Junjie scolded with a smile.

"Haven't you heard a saying? The daughter is China Merchants Bank, and the son is China Construction Bank. You said that if I had a son, it would be needless to say that he would study, and when he grew up in the future, he would still have a "heart: a house and a daughter-in-law." Don't you know how expensive the lunch is now?" Giving it to his daughter-in-law, isn't this equivalent to attracting investment for your daughter? Tao hattian said with a smile.

Everyone burst into laughter, and Liu Shiqing joked to Sister Chen Jun: "Junwei, did you hear it, my daughter is China Merchants Bank." You have to seize the opportunity, when you marry your daughter in the future, you must do a good job of attracting investment, and you must not squeeze out the pockets of hating the sky, and you must not give up. ”

Chen Junwei and Tao Haotian went aside to pray, they didn't believe in Guanyin, they just regarded this matter as a matter of time. Anyway, the bronze statue of Guanyin in the South China Sea is right in front of you, and if you are willing to make a wish to Guanyin Bodhisattva, you need to be flexible.

Xia Kangtian looked left and right, walked to the old monk's side, squatted down and asked in a low voice, "Master, I asked you something." Guanyin Bodhisattva can really manage marriage?

The old monk didn't look back at Xia Kangtian, but said lightly: "Female layman, sincerity is spiritual."

Xia Kangtian nodded, got up and walked to the front of the bronze statue of Guanyin, clasped his hands together, closed his eyes, and began to pray. Several other people also joined in the fun.

Some pray for the well-being of their families, some pray for a successful career, and some pray for a happy marriage.

When everyone finished praying and the time was almost up, just when Liu Shiqing beckoned everyone to leave, there was a sudden sound of howling and crying, and there was a heart-rending cry for help in the middle, "Bodhisattva, what should I do?" She and I swore an oath in front of your old man, and now she has betrayed her oath, what should I do? Please, old man, sue me

"What's going on? One, how could a big man cry like this? Although everyone didn't see what that person looked like, they could hear that the man was a man, and he didn't seem to be old." Why don't we go over and have a look? Wang Fujiati said.

Liu Shiqing nodded, took Guo Qianrong's hand, and followed the voice to find it. Just below the pedestal where the bronze statue of Guanyin in the South China Sea is located, where his back is facing the bronze statue of Guanyin in the South China Sea, there is a man in his thirties who kneels on the ground, bursting into tears and crying, which makes people listen very sad.

In Liu Shiqing's group of people, Duan Liyi and Shen Jiuqiang are about the same age as this man, Duan Liyi is inconvenient to go over, and Shen Jiuqiang took on the responsibility of inquiring. He walked up to the man, "I said, brother, what are you doing here?" This is the pure land of Buddhism, what kind of system are you crying like this?

The man raised his head, "I'm here to complain to Guanyin Bodhisattva, what do you care?" ”

Juan Jiuqiang smiled and said: "Guanyin Bodhisattva is made of copper after all, when have you ever seen Guanyin Bodhisattva manifest your spirit?" There are any difficulties that we still need to solve by ourselves. You are a big man with hands and feet, as long as you are willing to endure hardships and contribute to your efforts, what hurdle cannot be overcome? Why do you have to hide here and complain to Guanyin Bodhisattva. Don't say whether there is really Guanyin Bodhisattva in this world, even if there is, Guanyin only helps those who are self-respecting, self-loving and self-reliant, you are so cowardly, you will cry when you encounter difficulties, Guanyin Bodhisattva will not help you

Amitabha Buddha chanted the old monk on the pedestal, and the Buddha recited the Buddha horn appropriately.

The man in his thirties barely stopped crying, "Big brother, it's not that I don't know self-love and self-improvement, but what I encountered, even if it is self-respect and self-love, it won't help." Gong Liren ruined our whole family, and I had to complain to Guanyin Bodhisattva and her old man

"Tell me what's going on? Maybe I can give you an idea. "Judging Jiuqiang is also a person, in a warm mood, knowing that a man who has been standing for a long time, if he doesn't encounter particularly difficult things, he will never be like this, a man.

The man wiped his tears and sighed, probably he also needed to find someone to talk to, seize the opportunity, and start vomiting as fast as possible.

This man's name is Gao Dayuan, a fisherman in Zhoushan City, his family is average, and because his academic performance is not good, he stopped going to school after graduating from high school, and followed his parents to go to sea to make a living. Gao Dayuan's cultural Cheng is not high, and he is a bit wooden, and his family has no money, so he has no partner until he is twenty-five or sixteen years old. The family was very anxious, at this time, Bu Dayuan saw a marriage notice in the newspaper, saying that it was a female student in the third year of high school, called Gong Liren, who was admitted to college, but the cost of going to college was too high, and there was a sick mother at home, although she wanted to go to college, but she didn't have the financial strength, so she came up with an idea of marriage. If anyone can provide for her to go to college and pay for her mother's medical treatment, then after graduating from college, Gong Liren will marry him.

Gao Dayuan's parents moved their minds, so they instigated their son to meet with that Gong Liren. Gong Liren looks pretty good, she was admitted to a national key university, and when she was in a hurry, she went to the doctor, and when she met Gao Dayuan, she directly asked Gao Dayuan if she could study for her.

As soon as Gao Dayuan saw Gong Liren's face, he fell in love with this prospective college student who was seven years younger than him, and without saying a word, he reached an agreement with Gong Liren. All the expenses of Gong Liren's college years are responsible for the Ministry of Dayuan, and the expenses for Gong Liren's mother's medical treatment will be borne by Xi Dayuan. After Gong Liren graduated from university, the two parties received a marriage certificate and organized the wedding. In order to show their sincerity, the two sides also rushed to Putuo Mountain and made a promise in front of the bronze statue of Guanyin in the South China Sea. Whoever repents will be condemned by Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Not long after the agreement was reached, Gong Liren took the more than 10,000 yuan raised by the Gao family for her and went to Shanghai to study. Gao Dayuan was left behind to help him take care of his sick mother.

Gao Dayuan did his best, like a son, to take care of Gong Liren's mother, to Gong Liren's sophomore winter in the winter, Gong Liren's mother was seriously ill, it was Gao Dayuan in front of her hospital bed filial piety, sent Gong Liren's mother on the last journey, Gong Liren's mother raised tens of thousands of yuan, or the ministry for Gong Liren.

After Gong Liren went to college, at the beginning, the contact with the Ministry of Dayuan was quite diligent, and then the contact became less and less, and the tone became more and more rusty, more and more formulaic, almost as long as she called or wrote a letter, she asked for money, and there was nothing else to say to Gao Dayuan, and every winter and summer vacation, she always found an excuse to stay in Shanghai and refused to return to Zhoushan City. During this period, Gao Dayuan went to Shanghai to see Gong Liren several times, and every time Gong Liren spoke coldly to him, and later, he refused to talk to Gao Dayuan. (To be continued)
