Chapter 1631 The Messenger of the King of Ming
Mei Niang pressed her cheek against the wall, holding her breath and listening, but she didn't hear anything.
At this time, it was late at night, but Mrs. Feng was not in bed, which made Mei Niang feel strange, and when she got to the bed again, it was summer, and there was no brocade quilt on the bed, just a high-grade soft brocade, and she looked around, but she found that there was a dress hanging by the window, and she stepped forward and found that there were folds on the bed, and it seemed that someone had slept on the bed before.
Mei Niang's eyes rolled, and she returned to the front of the wall, thinking about whether there was a mechanism in the wall, and she was trying to find it, when she suddenly heard a strange sound, which came from the wall, Mei Niang was slightly startled, but her body was like a charm, and she quickly flashed behind the screen, holding a silver needle in her hand, and staring at the wall with cold eyes.
Soon, I saw that the wall was cracked in the sound that was not too loud.
As the crack opened, she saw the firelight coming out of it, Mei Niang's eyebrows furrowed, and she had a sneer on her lips, thinking that this wall was indeed famous.
Soon, the gap gradually widened, allowing a person to enter and exit freely, the voice stopped abruptly, Mei Niang saw that from the gap, a figure slowly walked out, the person was wearing a light veil, and was holding an oil lamp in his hand, after coming out of the gap, he turned around and raised his foot and kicked lightly in a place of the ancient wooden screen, and the sound sounded again, and the gap gradually closed.
This man was about forty-five or sixteen years old, nearly half a hundred years old, a middle-aged woman, who closed the wall and was about to leave, when she suddenly felt a chill behind her, and heard an indifferent voice behind her: "Don't move, don't scream, or you will be killed immediately!" ”
The woman was taken aback, her whole body was shocked, and the oil lamp in her hand almost fell to the ground, but she obviously also had some knowledge, knowing that since the other party was able to sneak into the governor's palace and avoid the guards, it must be a powerful character, and at this time she wanted to take her own life, as if she was looking for something, listening to the other party's voice It was a woman, so she calmed down and asked, "Who is the girl?" ”
Mei Niang had a silver needle in her hand, and said coldly: "Open the mechanism!" ”
The woman hurriedly said, "Girl......! Before he finished speaking, he felt like a pinprick in his neck, and his soul was scattered, and he almost fainted, and he didn't want to think about it, and when he kicked his toes on the screen, he heard the sound of the wall again.
Mei Niang knew at this time that this ancient wooden screen was really famous, but this mechanism was set on the screen.
When the gap opened, Mei Niang said coldly: "Go in!" ”
The woman said with a bitter face, "Girl, you ...... Who the hell are you? If you want gold or silver, I'll get you ......!" ”
"Less nonsense." Mei Niang said coldly: "Do whatever you want, don't talk nonsense, otherwise when Feng Yuanpo comes back, what you see is a corpse." ”
Mrs. Feng didn't dare to say much, took the oil lamp, and re-entered the gap in the wall, Mei Niang followed behind.
Under the light, Mei Niang soon found that behind the wall, it was a small stone room that was not large, with incense on one wall, a futon below, a portrait on the wall, and incense inside.
The interior looks very simple, at first glance, it is indeed a small Buddha hall, and when Mei Niang saw the picture hanging on the wall on the incense case, she couldn't help frowning.
I only saw that on the picture, it turned out to be a peacock with an open screen, and on the head of the peacock, it was surrounded by a circle of Buddha light.
"What is this?" Mei Niang frowned and asked coldly.
Mrs. Feng hurriedly said: "It's nothing, it's just that I have always believed in Buddhism, so I set up a small Buddha hall here, and I often worship here." The girl knows that Qin Guo believes that the saint does not like Buddhism, so we can't worship the Buddha in the open, so we can only worship ...... secretly! ”
Mei Niang sneered: "Since it is a Buddha worship, why is it a peacock picture?" ”
"We are afraid that others will find out, so we put this picture, even if it is seen, it has nothing to do with Buddhism...... Madame Feng said softly: "Girl, there is nothing here, if you need gold and silver wealth, there is no here." ”
"You're lying!" Mei Niang sneered: "Let me ask you again, what is this?" ”
Mrs. Feng said: "I have already said, girl, you ......!" Suddenly, I felt another stinging pain in my neck, and I heard Mei Niang say coldly: "I have pierced your death hole with a silver needle, if you can't dredge it within half an hour, you will definitely die, do you want to talk nonsense with me now?" ”
Mrs. Feng's face was pale, her body was soft, and she was already sitting on the futon, "Girl, you...... What do you want, we have no grievances ......! ”
"I'll say it again, if you talk about him left and right, my mother will definitely die uncomfortably for you." Mei Niang said coldly: "What does this peacock mean?" ”
Mrs. Feng was already cold at this time, and said in a trembling voice: "This ...... This is the Peacock King Bodhisattva ......! ”
"Peacock King Bodhisattva?" Mei Niang obviously knows very little about Buddhism, "Why do you want to worship the Peacock King Bodhisattva?" ”
Mrs. Feng wanted to speak and stopped, Mei Niang was impatient, reached out and grabbed Mrs. Feng's bun, turned her face, raised her hand and slapped her, "pop", crisp and loud, and five finger marks suddenly appeared on Mrs. Feng's face.
Mrs. Feng's eyes showed anger, but when she saw Mei Niang's half-masked face, she was startled, Mei Niang pulled her hair bun and sneered: "Don't play tricks with me, the flowers in your intestines, the old lady is clear, raised her other hand, held a silver needle in her hand, and without saying a word, she stabbed Mrs. Feng in the face without a head and no brain."
Mrs. Feng only felt a tingling pain on her face, and cried, "Girl......! Before she finished speaking, Mei Niang had already shouted: "Shut up, if someone hears it, kill it immediately." ”
Mrs. Feng was helpless, lowered her voice and said in a trembling voice: "If you put the Peacock King Bodhisattva, you can ...... You can live forever ......! ”
"Immortality?" Mei Niang frowned and said: "Nonsense, how can you worship a Bodhisattva and live forever, you still don't tell the truth...... He raised his hand and stabbed Madame Feng in the face with a silver needle.
Mrs. Feng hurriedly covered her face with her hand, and said with a bitter face: "I didn't lie to you, really...... It's really immortal, that's ...... This is the Bodhisattva of the West, as long as the White Peacock King Bodhisattva, her messenger will give us the ...... of immortality! ”
Mei Niang saw her eyes, but it didn't seem like she was lying, she glanced at the peacock picture again, and asked, "Who told you that you can live forever by worshipping this Bodhisattva?" You say it's a bodhisattva in the west, but what does that mean? ”
Mrs. Feng said: "Actually...... In fact, I don't know much, I only know that this Peacock King Bodhisattva is very revered in the west, and he is a Bodhisattva with high mana, yes...... It was the lord who built a small Buddha hall here, which was specially used to worship the peacock king Bodhisattva, and the lord said, this ...... This Peacock King Bodhisattva is the mother of the Buddha and the mother of the Buddha, so the mana is ...... profound! ”
"...... to the West!" Mei Niang was thoughtful, suddenly thought of something, and blurted out: "Could it be that you are talking about the Great Heart Sect?" ”
She and Shu Bojia have been together for a while, and naturally know that Shu Bojia is a disciple of the Great Heart Sect, and Shu Bojia has mentioned the Buddha's Heavenly Dragon and Dragon Relic, but she has not mentioned the Peacock King Bodhisattva, but Mei Niang naturally knows that Shu Bojia is a Buddhist disciple from the Western Regions, from the mouth of Shu Bojia, Mei Niang also knows that in the Western Regions, the influence of the Great Heart Sect is very strong, and the so-called Great Zen Buddhism is only once prosperous in the Central Plains.
Mei Niang can be said to have a shallow understanding of Buddhism, but when she got along with Shu Bojia, she had nothing to do, and naturally she talked about some Buddhist affairs.
Mei Niang understands that since Sakyamuni founded Buddhism, Buddhism is not only one sect, in fact, according to the different understandings of Buddhism, at the peak of its prosperity, there were hundreds of sects, transmitted to the Middle Earth Buddhism, after the transformation of the Central Plains, and later became the Great Zen Buddhism, just a sect of Buddhism, Zen Buddhism has a far-reaching influence in the Central Plains, but out of the Central Plains, the influence of Zen Buddhism is minimal, at least the states of the Western Regions do not know anything about Zen.
For any sect of Buddhism, other sects belong to the outer way, Zen Buddhism regards itself as an orthodox Buddhism, and regards other Buddhism as an external way, but in the eyes of other Buddhism, Central Plains Zen Buddhism is just a foreign way.
Just like the states of the Western Regions, many countries believe in the Heart Sect and regard the Heart Sect as orthodox, and Mei Niang knows from the mouth of Shu Bo Jia that the influence of the Heart Sect in the Western Regions is very strong, just like the status of Zen Buddhism in the Central Plains.
At this time, Mrs. Feng claimed that this Peacock King Bodhisattva was from the west, and Mei Niang naturally thought of the Heart Sect of the Western Regions.
When Mrs. Feng heard this, her face changed slightly, and she lost her voice and said, "You...... How do you know about Heart Sect? ”
When she asked, Mei Niang was even more sure that the Peacock King worshiped by Mrs. Feng was the Buddha of the Heart Sect.
"Of course I do." Mei Niang smiled coldly, pretending to be unfathomable, "You and Feng Yuanpo secretly worship the Peacock Ming King, that is to say, you all believe in the Heart Sect?" ”
Mrs. Feng hesitated for a moment before she said, "We'...... We know that the Peacock King can make us immortal, so ...... So worship the Peacock King ......! ”
"Is it Feng Yuanpo who said that believing in the Heart Sect can lead to immortality?" Mei Niang frowned.
Mrs. Feng nodded and said, "Yes...... It was the old man who said that the old man met the messenger of the Ming King Bodhisattva, and he had seen the mana of the messenger with his own eyes, and the old man said that the messenger's mana was profound, and it would definitely make us immortal......! ”
Mei Niang immediately asked, "Who is the messenger?" Where are you now, have you seen it? ”
Mrs. Feng hurriedly shook her head and said, "No...... No, the lord said that these words can't be said even if you die......! ”
Mei Niang snorted coldly and said, "It seems that Feng Yuanpo is also very affectionate to you, and these things have been told to you......!" His eyes stared at the peacock diagram and muttered, "Immortal...... It turns out that Feng Yuanpo wants to live forever, so where is the envoy of King Ming? ”
