Chapter 49: Mahayana

When night fell, the main streets of Husu County were empty, but there was an inexplicable movement in the Chenghuang Temple in the north of the city.

"Lord Chenghuang, then Cui Shen is too much to deceive the ghosts, it is better to let the little ones ask for his life for you, so as to vent this evil breath!" The ethereal tone, the angry words, accompanied by the ghost crying wolf, made this originally silent city god temple look ghostly.

"You must have waited outside to cause trouble for me, so you recruited such a murderer! Ask for his life? It's wonderful, but I told you that although Cui Shen is only a county order, his little son is not trivial, that is the future prime minister, born with a noble personality, just rely on a little ghost like you can't enter Cui's mansion at all, let alone his treasure mirror to kill demons! ”

"Lord Chenghuang, in this way, this breath can't come out?"

"If you can't get angry, it depends on the person! Although Cui Shen smashed the sculpture today, he left a line for the deity, I think he has other plans, and I will go to meet him for a while tonight! ”

In the house of Cui's house, Cui Shen was reading documents in the study, due to a few days of fatigue, he felt deeply sleepy, and unconsciously, he actually fell asleep on the desk.

"Cui Gong, Cui Gong!" In his sleep, Cui Shen heard someone calling for him, he looked up and woke up, but saw a flickering figure standing in front of the desk under the candlelight.

"Who is it?" Cui Shen broke out in a cold sweat and stood up suddenly.

"Don't be afraid, a certain county is a city god in Husu County, and I came to meet with Cui Gong for today's matter!"

Hearing this, Cui Shen's eyes widened suddenly, it was true, although the face of the person in front of him was a little blurry, but his official uniform that was not similar to the dynasty was clearly revealed.

"You're here to get revenge on me?" Cui Shen was surprised, but there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

"Oh, yes! Cui Gong smashed a temple today, because a certain ghost was at fault first, and he was the same county parent as Cui Gong, but also a small-bellied chicken intestine? The so-called grievances should be resolved rather than settled, and this time I came with sincerity! ”

"I don't know what sincerity the Chenghuang Gong holds?"

"Cui Gong's picture is really the whereabouts of the Rakshasa ghost!"

Cui Shen opened his mouth and smiled: "Chenghuang Gong is worthy of being a god!" ”

"Cui Gong, the Rakshasa ghost is committing murder in Husu County, not only hurting your official authority, but also damaging a certain yin virtue, and a certain wants to get rid of it just like you!"

"Oh?" Cui Shen looked puzzled, "Chenghuang Gong, then why do you still let the Rakshasa ghost go so far?" Although Shen has the intention to eliminate harm, it is a pity that he is a mortal, and the public is a god, so why not? ”

Chenghuang sighed softly, this sounded a little trance to Cui Shen, could it be that the gods were also worried?

"Chenghuang Gong, can you tell me about the origin of the Rakshasa ghost?"

"But also, can Cui Gong know about the Faqing Rebellion?"

"The Faqing Rebellion?" Cui Shen was a little dizzy when he heard this.

"That's the story of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Faqing is Jizhou Shamen, the Tao is profound, claiming to be the reincarnation of Maitreya, advocating murder and chaos, thinking that the person who kills one person is a Bodhisattva, and the person who kills ten people can be a Bodhisattva who lives in ten lives. Faqing founded the Mahayana religion, in the Northern Wei Dynasty Yanchang four years, the Bohai people Li Guibo as the ten living Bodhisattva, with the rebellion of the army, under the slogan of "the new Buddha is born, get rid of the demons", slaughtered the monastery, beheaded the monks and nuns, burned the scriptures, did everything, for the great harm of the world. However, in September of the same year, Mahayana was suppressed by the imperial court, Faqing and others were arrested and killed, and the Faqing Rebellion came to an end. ”

Cui Shen narrowed his eyes, listening more and more puzzled, but he knew that Chenghuang must have something to do, so he was not in a hurry to speak.

Sure enough, Chenghuang continued: "Although Faqing and the others died, Li Guibo still has a daughter under his knees, whose original name is unknown, and he once worshipped Faqing as a teacher and changed his name to Li Fonu. After the death of Faqing and her father, Li Fonu fled all the way to the location of present-day Husu County, hid in the mountains, secretly recruited believers, and tried to make a comeback, but was exposed before the matter was completed, and was finally burned to death by the government. After the Buddha was burned beyond recognition, her followers secretly buried her body and buried her with the Mahayana Rakshasa secret technique, and her burial place is now a poplar forest in the wilderness of ten miles outside the city. After a hundred years of wind and rain, Li Fonu slept underground, and really cultivated the body of Rakshasa, and some time ago, because a descendant of Hejiazhuang accidentally bumped into his tombstone, let it be stained with yang energy, so as to wake it up from the ground. ”

"I see!" Cui Shen finally understood the ins and outs, and he couldn't help asking: "Since it is a rakshasa and a ghost, why can't the city god help her?" ”

"Rakshasa is a demon in Buddhism, and Mahayana is different from Buddhism, in fact, it has entered the path of demons, and it is not a ghost in the Buddha girl, but a demon! A certain person was only a mortal in his lifetime, and Li Foshan had already cultivated the Tao before his birth, and his Taoism can be said to be far better than that of a certain person, and a certain person is also powerless! Now I'm afraid that only the treasure mirror in Cui Gong's hand can deal with her! ”

"Then dare to ask where the Rakshasa ghost is now?"

"She is still hiding in the Yanshuang Building in Yancuifang. She has sucked a lot of flesh and blood, most of her own flesh and blood have been regenerated, and there are many beauties in Yanshuang Building, what she wants is a skin! ”

After Cui Shen listened, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"Cui Gong, I'm going to quit first! I don't blame Cui Gong for today's mistakes, but I hope that Cui Gong can get rid of his previous suspicions and help someone rebuild the City God Temple, don't forget, don't forget! ”

Cui Shen wanted to say a few more words, but suddenly he was so excited that he actually raised his head from the bookcase. He looked at the candles on the desk that were almost burned out, and found that the candles were burning red, but the doors and windows in front of him were closed, and there was still the shadow of the city god, it turned out that everything was just a dream.

But Cui Shen didn't believe that it was just a dream, he remembered everything Chenghuang said to him in the dream clearly, he couldn't help but say, he got up and put on his robe, took out the treasure mirror and hid it in the robe, and went out of the study.

"Husband, it's so late, where are you going?" Cui Shen had just come out of the study door when he happened to meet his wife Lu coming with a supper.

"I'm going back to the yamen to do something. Oh, and by the way, it's just the right time for a late-night snack! Cui Shen picked up a few bites of supper and ate them, and then went all the way out of the house.

When he was about to leave the house, he happened to meet Xie Qiao again, and seeing that Xie Qiao had recovered as before, he briefly explained his purpose, and Xie Qiao expressed his willingness to go together.

So, the two went out of the house together and came to the yamen in front of the house.

Cui Shen counted the dozen or so martial marquis on duty in the yamen, and then gave an impassioned order: "That Rakshasa ghost is now hiding in Yancuifang Yanshuang Building, and you will follow me to subdue demons and eliminate demons!" ”
