Wei Shuo followed the monks to walk inside, the Fahua Temple was originally not big, and after a while, everyone went to the side room of the temple to entertain guests. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Da Sima, please use tea!" Master Zhiyuan asked his apprentice to serve tea, and he and several monks such as Buddha Tucheng accompanied him.

Master Zhiyuan saw that Wei Shuo was in a good mood, and hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot: "Da Sima, in order to promote Buddhism in Liaodong, the poor monk wants to expand the temple. According to Liaodong regulations, if land is expropriated, it must be examined by the pastoral government. However, the poor monk has applied many times before, but has always been rejected by the pastor. ”

"Please also ask Da Sima to approve a piece of land in the face of the poor monks and other sincere Buddhas!"

After listening to Master Zhiyuan's story, Wei Shuo knew that this was the Mu Fu deliberately suppressing the development of Buddhism, of course, this could not be said on the table. Moreover, with the status of today's exposition, there is no longer a need to suppress Buddhism as it is now, but it is necessary to use Buddhism to stimulate the exposition.

Therefore, Wei Shuo sighed slightly: "Please rest assured, when I understand what happened, if there is no problem, I will have someone send the approval of the land use right." ”

"Really?! That's great! Poor monk, thank you Da Sima! Seeing Wei Shuo answer in person, Master Zhiyuan was overjoyed and thanked Wei Shuo again and again.

The other monks also showed joy, only the senior monk Buddha Tucheng seemed to have expected it, and his face was silent. Fo Tucheng knew very well that getting the land approval was only a prerequisite for the expansion of Fahua Temple, and then it would be necessary to invest huge sums of money to buy raw materials and recruit hired workers. With the current strength of Fahua Temple, it is simply not capable of completing this huge project, unless it has strong support from Buddhist believers in other places.

After solving the top priority of the temple, Zhiyuan was very excited, and took the opportunity to preach the mysteries of Buddhism to Wei Shuo, trying to guide Da Sima to believe in Buddhism.

"Buddha Cloud, there are dependent origins, Dharma seals, the Four Noble Truths, the Noble Eightfold Path, the Twelve Causes and Conditions, the Karmic Retribution of Karma, the Six Realms of the Three Realms, the Thirty-Seven Realms, and Nirvana."

"And everything in the world is born of the combination of causes and effects; All things are changeable, not eternal reality, they are born and destroyed, and everything is empty. Life and death are the worldly laws, and in the Buddha's view, not being born and dying is the worldly laws. ”

"All the sufferings in the world, namely birth, old age, sickness, death, and other eight kinds of suffering, are illusory, unreal, changeable, and not enough to be greedy. Therefore, sentient beings must practice to free themselves from their afflictions and reach the state of nirvana, which is silent and happy. ”

Seeing that Wei Shuo was listening to his own lecture with relish, Zhiyuan thought that his Dharma had deeply touched Da Sima, but he didn't know that Wei Shuo had long been unconscious, and his soul was out of the world.

At this time, Wei Shuo had already focused on Buddha Tucheng, or he was quite curious about the 'supernatural powers' he mastered.

In history, Buddha Tucheng relied on his wonderful powers to conquer the emperors of Shi Le and Shi Hu and Zhao, and worshiped him as a master of the world all his life, and the degree of attention was no less than that of Zhang Bin, who was unparalleled in wisdom.

It is said that when Buddha Tucheng first visited Shile, Shile did not care about the so-called Buddhism at all, and as soon as they met, he asked, "What is the effect of your Buddhism?" ”

Knowing that Shi Le did not understand the Dharma, Buddha Tucheng decided to convince him by showing his supernatural powers, saying, "Although the Dharma is profound, it can be demonstrated here a little to make you believe." ”

Saying that, Buddha Tucheng asked for a clay bowl, filled it with water, burned incense, and then picked up the sharp blade on the soldier's body, stabbed it in his chest, dug out a blood-red heart, and recited words to the bowl of clear water. It is also strange to say that the basin of calm and traceless water suddenly grew a white lotus flower, which was bright and dazzling, and suddenly filled the room.

Master Fo Tucheng did not change his face and put "Poof! Burst! The beating heart was brought to Shile and said, "My heart is as pure and unblemished as this pure lotus!" ”

Seeing this, Shi Le and the others were shocked and immediately bowed.

Although Wei Shuo does not believe in the so-called public digging out of the heart and other magical powers, it is undeniable that Buddha Tucheng is indeed a high-ranking monk, and he must also have some unknown 'magical powers'.

Otherwise, in the history books, there would not be many records of his deeds demonstrating supernatural powers.

It is said that on one occasion, the Xianbei people attacked Shile at the end of the day. Duan Mobo's soldiers were strong and strong, which made Shi Le very panicked, and he hurriedly asked Fo Tucheng for advice.

As a result, Buddha Tucheng replied as if nothing had happened: "The bell rang in the temple yesterday, and I listened carefully, saying that Duan Mobo should be caught at noon today. ”

Shi Le believed and doubted, and went to the city with his subordinates to look, only to see the Xianbei army coming overwhelmingly.

Shi Le was shocked and complained to his henchmen around him: "The enemy army is marching, the ground is shaking, how can Duan Mobo be captured? It must have been the master who comforted me. ”

When Shi Le wanted to send someone to ask Buddha Tucheng again, he suddenly learned that Duan Mobo had been caught. It turned out that there was an ambush in the north of the city, and when they were attacking, they met Duan Mobo and captured him.

An even more amazing thing happened in the battle between Shi Le and Liu Yao, when Liu Yao personally led a large army to attack Luoyang. Shi Le's nephew Shi Hu guarded Luoyang, and Shi Le planned to go to resist Liu Yao in person, but his internal and external aides objected, believing that it was too dangerous.

Shi Le had no choice but to consult Buddha Tucheng again. Buddha Tucheng said: "...... The army will definitely be able to catch Liu Yao. ”

At this time, Shi Le was already convinced of Buddha Tucheng, so he did not listen to the persuasion of the crowd and decided to conquer himself.

Who knew that Liu Yao seemed to be strong, but as soon as he fought, his army was crushed, and Liu Yao's horse was submerged in the water, and he was captured alive.

When Zhiyuan's lecture was over, Wei Shuo suddenly asked Buddha Tucheng: "I heard that Master Yi once preached the Dharma to Kahu Shile, but I don't know what the effect is?" ”

Zhiyuan and other senior monks tightened their faces when they heard this, they had been in Liaodong for so long, and everyone knew that Da Sima hated Hu Lu the most in his life, especially those national scum who worked with Hu Lu. Although Buddha Tucheng is not strictly speaking a person from the Great Jin Dynasty, it is an indisputable fact that he has too close contacts with the high-level of the Qianghu, so everyone is worried that Da Sima will blame Buddha Tucheng.

Unexpectedly, Buddha Tucheng was not frightened at all, and said very calmly: "Shi Shilong advocates violence, although he respects the poor monk very much on his face, but he is just subdued by the poor monk's divine power, and there is really no trace of respect for the Buddha in his heart. ”

Hearing this, Wei Shuo couldn't help laughing at himself: "In this way, so-and-so has nothing to do with the Buddha!" Because I, like Shile, also advocate countering violence with violence, and stopping killing with killing! ”

"Definitely! Definitely! From the point of view of the poor monks, Da Sima saved tens of millions of people and gave them a happy and peaceful life by means of vajra to subdue demons, so Da Sima is a person with great wisdom and compassion. ”

"Hahaha, the master is really different!"

Regarding Fo Tucheng's attempt to pull himself into the Buddhist family, Wei Shuo was not disgusted. And in his opinion, although Buddha Tucheng served the karma, and with the help of the power of the karma, Buddhism was greatly expanded. But this is what a Buddhist master should do, and in any case, Buddha Tucheng protected the Jin people to a certain extent, and many Jin people in the Central Plains relied on Buddha Tucheng's intercession to avoid being slaughtered by the Karma Hu.

"The master is highly respected in the Central Plains, why did he come all the way to my Liaodong?"

"Buddhism has a cloud: If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? Nowadays, Buddhism in Liaodong is not prosperous, and poor monks, as disciples of Buddhism, have the obligation and responsibility to promote Buddhism. Therefore, the poor monk accepted the invitation of Master Zhiyuan to preach Buddhism in Liaodong. ”

"The master is ambitious, and he is deeply admired, I don't know what can I do to help?"

Out of respect for the monks, or out of some policy needs, Wei Shuo is willing to give Buddhism a certain convenience. The other monks couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw that Wei Shuo valued Buddha Tucheng so much, and looked at each other with their eyes, hoping that Buddha Tucheng would take the opportunity to ask Da Sima for help to change the status of Buddhism.

Unexpectedly, in the face of Wei Shuo's kindness, Buddha Tucheng refused very simply: "The poor monk thanks Da Sima for his kindness, but everything has a fate, and whether Buddhism can prosper in Liaodong depends on its own efforts." ”

Wei Shuo was very surprised: "Huh? The master really wants to not worry about the future of Buddhism in Liaodong at all? ”

Buddha Tucheng still said expressionlessly: "Because the poor monk knows that although the great Sima has no intention of supporting the Buddhist family, and at the same time has no intention of destroying the Buddha and banning the Buddha, what is there to worry about if the poor monk is so poor?" If the opportunity comes in the future, there will be a day when Buddhism will be re-promoted in the world. ”

"Master Wisdom!" Wei Shuo couldn't help but praise that he really didn't have the heart to destroy the Buddha, and even had the intention of loosening Buddhism today, when the climate of expounding Buddhism had been established. When he visited the monks at Fahua Temple today, he was actually sending a signal to the outside world.

At this moment, everyone present was deeply admired by Buddha Tucheng, and he really deserved to be a great monk.

Later, Wei Shuo stayed in the Fahua Temple for about an hour, and most of the time he communicated with Buddha Tucheng, and everyone who listened to it benefited a lot. It wasn't until it was dark that Wei Shuo left with everyone. (To be continued.) )
