Chapter 44: Color is Emptiness

Accompanied by the five ancestors of Shaolin, Song Haiping visited the Shaolin Temple before the fire. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info today's Shaolin Temple is also a new building, the old temple has been burned down by officers and soldiers in the Yongzheng period, see the fire of the Red Lotus Temple for details. It is this new temple, if it is according to the historical development, it will also be burned down by the warlord Shi Yousan, why? Because that year, the local Shaolin monks and soldiers actually joined the warlord melee.

At noon, there was a burst of aroma wafting in the back kitchen, and the Shaolin abbot pig head meat master asked: "Amitabha, donors have a meal together?" ”

Song Haiping: "Okay, by the way, I didn't have time to ask the master just now, what is Buddhism?" ”

Shaolin abbot pig head meat master chanted the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, when you are hungry, you have to eat, this is Buddhism." ”

Thinking of the names of the five Shaolin ancestors, Song Haiping also sighed and said: "The master is really profound in Buddhism......"

In the Shaolin Temple canteen, it was a young nun who shuttled back and forth to serve food, and the pig head meat master who sat down in the main seat was not polite, and grabbed a young nun in his hand and sat on his lap with both hands on the young nun and touched the body of the young nun with both hands, and the pig head meat master kissed the nun and recited the Buddha name: "Amitabha, color is emptiness, emptiness is color." The old man was empty again today. ”

The four disciples of the abbot pig head meat master also grabbed the young nun and sat on his lap and followed the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, I will be empty today." ”

Song Haiping saw that there were some big fish and meat on the table, and he also saw that the vegetarian was both meat and vegetarian, and he immediately got up and went to catch a nun who served the dishes and sat on his lap.

This meal was eaten until the time of the palm lamp, and the sound of "pa", "pa" and various intermittent Buddha trumpets in the middle was endless. Song Haiping has figured it out, this is all empty, it's a skin. If you can't get used to it, it's a photo.

In the evening, Song Haiping proposed to invite Shaolin monks to go to Nanyang to build a temple to fight against the Western forces in Nanyang, and the abbot of Shaolin Temple, Master Pig Head Meat, happily agreed: "Amitabha, everyone in the world thinks that Western religion has a silver mess, but I don't know that my Chinese inheritance of thousands of years of unobstructed conference does not lose it." In this matter, the old man should contact the eminent monks and great virtues from all over the north to hold a grand event. ”

Song Haiping: "Master, you see that over the years, foreign religions have come to our doorstep. How can this exposition not make any achievements? ”

After hearing this, Master Pig's Head Meat burst into tears: "After Master Jianzhen crossed to the east thousands of years ago, none of my disciples wanted to spread this Buddhism all over the world, but since the Tang Dynasty was defeated in the northwest, we have lost official support for our westward expansion. In the past few hundred years, there have been tens of thousands of monks and great masters who have gone west to preach, and there are 58,000 monks and soldiers who have been sent to protect the monks to the west to preach the Dharma in the past five or six hundred years.

However, he died. All dead. The largest one was set off with a caravan in the Western Regions a hundred years ago, including 800 senior monks and 3,000 monks and soldiers of my Shaolin guards. As soon as he entered the Western Regions, he was slaughtered by local pagan officers and soldiers and horse thieves, and all 3,000 monks and soldiers were wiped out. Only the three lay disciples who fled back to the caravan to report the news, those Green Cultists lit sky lanterns and skinned the monks who were powerless...... Do all kinds of things that I can't bear to say. In the past, the monks who went west to preach the Dharma also died at the hands of these green sects.

Later, we searched the classics, and those Green Sects already existed when Master Sanzang went west to Tianzhu to learn scriptures, but the Green Sect was weak and docile at that time, and did not exterminate all the people of other sects. Now that the Green Sect has gained momentum in the local area, it kills its disciples like pigs, horses, dogs, and sheep.

The Zhu Bajie recorded in the Journey to the West in the previous dynasty is a reflection of the Green Sect in the Western Regions, and the Dharma name of my senior brother does not dare to forget the meaning of this kindness. Before his death, my master admonished: If he succeeds in Lingyunzhi, he will definitely send the Green Sect to heaven. ”

After Song Haiping stayed in Shaolin Temple for three days and emptied dozens of times, he donated a sum of silver before leaving and returned to the Sijiu City Japan Pavilion.

After returning to the Japanese Pavilion, Song Haiping first asked: "How did the celebrities of the Qing Dynasty and our newspaper scold?" ”

Yu Deqian: "It's still the same old and clichΓ©. According to our observations, most of the newspapers of the Qing Dynasty celebrities are no longer read in the teahouses, but the newspapers of our China Daily have been reading. We curse every day, but we come up with new ideas. Scolded out of the level. Scolding people without swearing words can scold thousands of words at once. The celebrities of the Qing Dynasty scolded people over there, and the common people didn't understand it.

In terms of sales, the sales volume of our China Daily has increased to 30,000 copies per issue, and it is no longer a loss to calculate advertising revenue. The sales of that Qing celebrity have dropped from 3,000 copies at the peak to 1,000 copies today, and there are still some friendly purchases from court officials. Moreover, the celebrities of the Qing Dynasty were ashamed of their words, and they ran newspapers without advertising. ”

Hearing that, Song Haiping squirted out as he drank tea, what do newspapers rely on to make money if they don't advertise, you are not an internal magazine. It can only be said that the head of this Qing Shilin is different from ours.

After reading a few official documents and signing them, Song Haiping sent a video communication to Lin Haiyang: "Hey, Lao Lin, the engineering team remembers to send to Manila to build me a big palace, yes, it is the kind that can accommodate 3,000 beauties in the wine pond meat forest." ”

Lin Haiyang: "Three thousand, you are not afraid of dying on a woman." ”

Song Haiping: "Lao Lin, you are in the picture, this is empty." ”

Lin Haiyang: "I can't say you, the engineering team and building materials will all be delivered within a month." ”

After the video call, Song Haiping said to Deqian: "Inform the caravan below and let it start collecting refugees in the northern provinces, remember that it is best for immigrants to be family-oriented, even if they pay some silver to buy out their debts, it is fine, those who know martial arts or intend to serve as soldiers to eat food, send them to Hawaii to conduct military training with the local Taiping army."

Those who were only willing to work in the fields signed a contract of five to ten years and sent to the Luzon Company in Manila for cultivation. The priority of this work arrangement should be at the front, and the two of us will personally lead the team. ”

Yu Deqian: "Hey. I'll just lay it out. When are we leaving? ”

Song Haiping: "Let's start tomorrow morning." ”

The main problem in Luzon now is that there are too few Chinese, and it seems that there are many more than 100,000 Chinese in Luzon today, but they are too concentrated. And now the Chinese in Luzon are all family and business, and may not be willing to do anything with you, as a Luzon company, it is natural to vigorously immigrate, expand their voice among the Chinese, and then clear up the local natives - this policy towards the indigenous people is relatively simple, either follow us to eat bananas, or oppose us to eat knives.

After all, as the local rulers, the natives are all kinds of unaccustomed to it, after the fall of the Spaniards, some of the Luzon tribal chiefs or village chiefs and other characters have become the Luzon kings, and now there are hundreds of Luzon kings who have the right to rule Luzon in Xuancheng, and there are even more who occupy a place and claim hegemony.
