Chapter 1: The Tragedy of Shaolin (1)
Zheng County, Henan Province is located to the west of Kaifeng. In September 333 of the Great Song Dynasty, the second crop was harvested, because last year was planted with winter wheat, and this winter was planted with rape flowers.
On the banks of the Jinshui River, there are many rape fields. Workers are in full swing to build a new bridge over the Jinshui River. With the roar of the machine, the heavy prefabricated slabs were lifted by the gas ball machine and placed on the concrete piers. Those who can do this are skilled workers, and many of them do other work. By lunchtime, workers gathered more and more on both sides of the bridge, and with the last few prefabricated slabs laid, the 30-meter-long bridge was finally completed.
Except for the skilled workers, who are members of the engineering team, the other workers are hired from the village during the off-season. Seeing that the bridge was finally able to leave, everyone happily went to the bridge deck. The reinforced concrete bridge is different from the wooden bridge, and when you walk on it, you only feel that your feet are extremely stable, as if you are stepping on solid ground.
The young man couldn't help but jump on the bridge, and the action was immediately stopped by the older man, "Are you going to collapse the bridge?" ”
Of course, the bridge can't be shaken down by such a few people jumping once, and the stomach will be hungry. It didn't take long for the cafeteria to be crowded with workers. Everyone is talking about the construction of bridges. With this bridge, it will be much easier for people nearby to cross the river in the future. Some workers are worried that after the bridge is repaired, everyone will have new jobs. There is food and accommodation on the construction site, and there is no chattering wife. For men, there is also a little merit.
While eating and chatting, someone said to a strong man next to him: "Brother Lu, you are still reading the newspaper." ”
The strong man has not participated in the chat before, but reads a copy of "Bianliang Evening News" while eating. When the others heard this, they couldn't help but say: "Don't delay Brother Lu to read the newspaper, otherwise he will be unhappy for a while, and he won't read the newspaper to us." ”
Normally, the workers from each village gather together. After lunch, I listened to Brother Lu read the newspaper, but there were all the villages. This eldest brother Lu's name is Luda, and it is said that his ancestor is also a good man in Shuibo Liangshan. However, why the descendants of Shandong heroes settled in Zheng County, Henan, and the descendants of Lujia Village and Jiajia Village on the banks of the Jialu River are not very clear.
Ruda took the newspaper and began to read it to the crowd. On the front page, Zhao Guanjia demanded a nationwide purge of feudal guilds. The migrant workers were not interested at all. This one is ignored. As a local newspaper, "Bianliang Evening News" naturally cares about the surrounding affairs. The news about the water conservancy battle in Zheng County was relatively high, and the migrant workers listened to the reports about their participation in the project, and listened very energetically.
There is not so much new news in this era, and newspapers have to have a certain page. Therefore, the report is more popular. The main rivers in Zheng County are the Jinshui River, the Jialu River, and the Bears Ears River. It is in China that the name Jinshui River has a really long history.
Zheng County was originally the capital of Zheng Guoguo, and during the 26 years that Zheng Guocheng was in power, he worked hard and was honest and honest. When Confucius passed through Zheng Guo, he produced latex paint with his son. Upon learning of the death of the child, Confucius cried: "The love of the ancients is also. ”
At that time, in order to commemorate the birth of the child, the common people took out their gold and silver jewelry for their funeral, and the children of the child did not accept it. The people threw their jewelry into the river to express their mourning, and the river was named the Jinshui River.
After hearing Ruda read this paragraph, the farmers who had lived by the Jinshui River for generations couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Is there gold in the river? ”
Ruda looked up at the excited crowd and couldn't help but smile: "The newspaper said that ancient gold refers to copper. At that time, everyone threw copper jewelry into the water. The newspaper also said that from the year of the child's death to the year of our Great Song Dynasty 333, 1815 has passed. At that time, the bronze utensils thrown into the water did not know what had changed. ”
The villagers exclaimed, "Good boy! In 1815, how did the imperial court know so accurately? There are also whole zeros. ”
Ruda didn't explain this, because he didn't know it himself. But Ruda believed that since the imperial court dared to say so in the newspapers, it must be true. The name of a river has remained unchanged since 1815, which makes Ruda feel proud. According to the newspapers, this name is second only to the 'four desecrations'.
The four desecrations are, river, Huai, and Ji, that is, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, the Huai River, and the Jishui. "Erya Shishui" contains: "River, river, Huai, and Ji are the four desecrations, and the origin of the four desecrations is also injected into the sea. According to the "Water Jing Note": "From the river into the Ji, from the Ji into the Huai, from the Huai to the river, the water path is circumferential." Therefore, there are four blasphemys.
In addition to these, the newspaper also told the reason for planting rape flowers this year. Last year, corn and winter wheat were planted in both crops. Growing a single crop in a place for a long time can also allow the insects and bacteria that damage that crop to build up. The best way to do this is to rotate different crops and fallow them regularly. Grow alfalfa or even trees for a while.
By constantly altering the environment of the farmland, pests and bacteria are suppressed as naturally as possible. Farmers will be skeptical of this claim. But as peasants, they did their best to understand what the court was saying.
After the break, everyone continued to work. The laying of prefabricated slabs does not mean the end of the work. To install the guardrails on both sides of the bridge, it is necessary to continue laying other things on the prefabricated slabs to make the bridge deck smoother and stronger. There's a lot more to come.
It's the weekend. Ruda went home. As soon as I got home, someone came to visit. Ruda hurriedly led the visitor into the house. The two sat down, and Luda opened his mouth and asked, "Senior brother, how is Master?" ”
"Senior brother. Master sent me here this time. The senior brother didn't say much, "This time, I invited the brothers and sisters back to the temple to keep the temple property in the temple." ”
Luda's expression became a little solemn, he was a lay disciple of Shaolin Temple. The master has a call, and of course he should respond accordingly. However, this time he summoned Ruda to fight against the imperial court, which made him unable to agree immediately. After a period of silence, Luda asked, "Does Shaolin Temple want to fight against the imperial court?" ”
"It's the imperial court that doesn't let us Shaolin live. In all dynasties, Songshan Mountain is the land of our Shaolin Temple. Suddenly, the imperial court was about to take Songshan back into its hands. What do we Lin disciples eat? The senior brother said indignantly.
Ruda's heart was irritable, and his thoughts suddenly jumped away. He remembered the newspaper description of 'five mountains and four desecrations'. Zhongyue Songshan is one of the five mountains, and one of the five mountains belongs to the Shaolin Temple. For the ownership of Songshan, his own division had to fight against the imperial court......
In order to determine his position, Luda asked: "Master will never say that Songshan Mountain is the mountain of Shaolin Temple. ”
When the senior brother heard this, he was angry, "Starting from the emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty, Songshan is our Shaolin Temple." Our temple can eat meat, which is the rule set by Li Shimin. ”
Hearing this, Ruda couldn't help but sigh. The newspaper made it clear that when Buddhism first arose in Tianzhu, it was said in the "Lengyan Sutra" that a true practitioner must break the five hardships. The so-called five spices are spices. Tianzhu's spices have long been a very common food in the Great Song Dynasty, if this thing is not well matched, it will be irritable after eating it often, or there will be a situation of chicken hardness. In general, it stimulates the endocrine system and makes people more excited. And Buddhist practice, of course, is against such a situation.
It is forbidden to eat meat, which is the rule made by the emperors of the Southern Dynasties during the Northern and Southern Dynasties after Buddhism was introduced to China. It belongs to the characteristics of Chinese Buddhism.
Ruda wanted to use this to persuade the senior brother not to misquote Buddhism, but Ruda didn't say it, he already knew what he thought. So Ruda said: "Senior brother, I will not go against the imperial court. I also advise you not to go against the court. Isn't it just a matter of spotting the ground? Our Shaolin Temple are all cultivators, why should we care so much about this. ”
Hearing Luda's words, the senior brother became angry, and he scolded: "I didn't expect you to deceive your teacher and destroy your ancestors after only two years of being a soldier!" ”
When Ruda heard this, he knew it didn't make sense. He pointed to the door, "Senior brother, you can go." ”
A few days later, Ruda was called away on the construction site. When he arrived at the temporary office on the construction site, Ruda was surprised to find that his former platoon commander was inside. Seeing Ruda, the platoon commander stepped forward and smiled: "It's not easy to find you." ”
Ruda was originally happy in his heart, but remembering the visit of the senior brother a few days ago, Ruda's joy also dissipated. He asked listlessly, "What is the platoon commander looking for me?" ”
"You are from the Shaolin Temple. That's right. The platoon commander asked.
The next day, Ruda woke up in a guest house in the garrison. Looking at the white wall, Ruda felt very regretful. When he was a teenager, he went to Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts, and with this martial arts, Luda saved his family and protected the village. This is the kindness of the teacher. Later, Luda joined the Song army, where he learned to read, read and write, and write simple documents and reports. Now he has become a village cadre. If it is about the kindness of both sides, Ruda feels that it is half a catty.
Now the two sides of the team Luda Youen are in trouble, and Luda is in a very difficult mood. But yesterday he still came with the platoon commander, because after listening to Luda's friendship with his master, he replied simply: "Luda, your master taught you martial arts, and let you rely on martial arts to protect your relatives and friends." Our Great Song army has eliminated the bad guys who threaten your relatives and friends by force, and even if you are not there, you still don't have to worry about their safety. Who do you think helped you more? ”
Thinking about this, Ruda couldn't refute it at all. You can only follow the platoon commander to the garrison area to report. Lying on the bed, Ruda sighed in addition to sighing.
In the garrison area of Zheng County, the Song army was already making military preparations to exterminate the Shaolin Temple. Yang Tiexin, commander of the Yinshan Theater of the Great Song Dynasty, listened to the political commissar's political request, "The official family has ordered that the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and the books in the temple must be kept in this battle. Remember, don't let these texts get damaged. ”
Zhao Jiaren was the first emperor to have the status of a formal jinshi so far, and everyone knew the attitude of the Zhao official family towards culture, so they were not surprised by this order. And the commissar also explained this order.
Shaolin Temple was founded in the 19th year of Taihe of the Northern Wei Dynasty (495), Hongwei settled the Indian monk Batuo who came to the dynasty to teach Theravada Buddhism, and built it at the northern foot of Shaomu Mountain in Songshan Mountain, which is opposite the capital Luoyang.
In the first year of Yongping (506), the Indian monks Lenamoti and Bodhi Liuzhi successively went to Shaolin Temple to open a translation field, and set up a translation hall in the Xitai Relic Pagoda of Shaolin Temple to translate scriptures. After that, Huiguang promoted the "Four Divisions" and other teachers in Shaolin Temple, and after many generations of development, later generations finally formed the Four Divisions of the Law Sect.
The most important figure for Shaolin Temple is Bodhidharma, the twenty-eighth disciple of Shakyamuni Buddha. Emperor Xiaoming of the Northern Wei Dynasty Xiaochang three years (527 years), the twenty-eighth generation of Shakyamuni Buddha Bodhidharma came to Shaolin Temple, he was created on the basis of Batuo, widely gathered believers, taught Zen Buddhism, Eastern Wei Xiaojing Emperor Tianping three years to pass the law to Hui Ke, since then Zen in Shaolin Temple traces spread.
This is the cultural heritage of Shaolin Temple. When the Zhao official family ordered the extermination of the Shaolin Temple, the scriptures of the Shaolin Temple must be protected, which is a very important cultural heritage. There is no room for error.
And the Shaolin Temple has a tradition that is not only valuable culture, but also a strong martial arts tradition. Emperor Wen of Sui worshiped Buddha and gave Shaolin Temple a hundred hectares of land, plus other rewards, Shaolin Temple became a large temple with 100 hectares of fertile land and huge temple property.
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the thirteen monks of Shaolin Temple were rewarded by Tang Taizong for helping Tang Dynasty, giving thousands of hectares of fields, grinding a body of water, and calling Shaolin monks monks monks, since then, Shaolin Temple is famous all over the world, known as the first temple in the world.
During the Tang and Song dynasties, Shaolin Temple has more than 14,000 acres of land, 540 acres of temple foundation, more than 5,000 buildings and palaces, and more than 2,000 monks. The Zen sect founded by Bodhidharma flourished in the Tang Dynasty and was the largest sect of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty.
Rich, capricious. After Shaolin Temple has a huge temple wealth, it not only invites monks from all walks of life to talk about the law, but also often holds martial arts conferences, inviting martial arts experts from all walks of life to Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts. The martial arts tradition of the Shaolin Temple was formed. After the fall of the Jin Kingdom, the Mongols also admired Buddhism, and with the Mongols'-like local management ability, Shaolin Temple soon became the owner of the entire Songshan Mountain.
Not long ago, the Great Song Dynasty held a preparatory meeting of the Religious Management Committee, at which they forced the monks and Taoists to admit that they had no supernatural powers at all. And announced that the temple and Taoist temple were not allowed to own land, which immediately set off a monstrous wave. The monks of Shaolin Temple were so arrogant that they immediately closed the road and did not allow people to enter the Songshan boundary.
It happened that the 100,000 troops in the Yinshan Theater had retreated to the south of Yinshan because of the plague, and the troops did not want to stay in Zhangjiakou, and it was inconvenient for them to stay in Hebei. I simply went to Henan, which is warmer than Hebei, to repair. The actions of the Shaolin monks were not interpreted as demonstrations, but were characterized as rebellions.
"The rebels must be eliminated. But it must not infringe on the people. In this crackdown on bandits, we will do propaganda work first. "The commissar told about the attitude of the Political Department.
Yang Tiexin felt that this was a bit troublesome. Before he could speak, some of his subordinates said, "Wouldn't it be convenient to use the method of dealing with the Mongols." ”
When the political commissar heard this, his face immediately became stern. He said: "Commander Gu, you come to tell me, what kind of army is our Great Song army!" ”
