Chapter 53 The Importance of Buddhism
Gu Baiguo was stunned for a moment, then became nervous, and said, "What's wrong?" ”
Unexpectedly, after saying this, the little carpenter closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, so angry that Gu Baiguo wanted to beat this stinky brother-in-law viciously.
It wasn't until the evening that the little carpenter went out to breathe, and then he told Gu Baiguo that someone was following them.
At first glance, those people, whether they were dressed or talked and behaved, were basically no different from the other passengers in the cabin, and even the accent of their speech was full of Sichuan flavor.
But when the gang of Kan Dashan just now talked about Wandehu as Xiao Dongyang's lackey, the little carpenter happened to look back, and saw that there was a fierce light in the eyes of one of them......
Seeing this, the little carpenter didn't look at it more, and didn't make any moves except for reminding Gu Baiguo.
He even took a nap for a while, and waited until he fell asleep before talking to Gu Baiguo.
After listening to the little carpenter's speculation, Gu Baiguo was a little apprehensive and asked, "Then what should we do?" ”
But the little carpenter smiled and said, "What to do, just do it, as if you don't know." ”
Gu Baiguo was a little nervous, but since her brother-in-law said this, she didn't think much about it anymore and returned to the cabin safely.
The small steamer went upstream, starting from Yucheng, all the way to the west, crossing Jiangyang, going to Xuzhou, and then came to Leshan.
The trip is here, even if it is only terminated.
It could have been possible to continue the boat ride, but the little carpenter chose to go ashore here.
After the two landed, just as they guessed, the three guys who had been following from Yucheng actually got off the boat at the dock.
The little carpenter was basically sure that the other party was not good, but he pretended not to know, ignored it, and then took Gu Baiguo to the south and walked towards the confluence of the three rivers in the distance.
When he was a child, he had come here with Lu Da to build a house, so even if many years had passed and he had revisited the old place, he was just as familiar.
After walking for a long time, they came to a riverside flat dam.
Not far away, there is a head and the mountain, feet on the river, hands on the knees, the body is well-proportioned, the posture is solemn, the mountain is chiseled into a huge stone statue of the river and sitting.
This is the most famous Leshan Lingyun Giant Buddha.
This cliff stone carving statue into a sitting state, level with the mountain, the height is full of twenty or thirty zhang, the earliest excavation in the first year of the Tang Dynasty, lasted more than 90 years, it was completed, it is simply a miracle in the world.
Previously, when the little carpenter saw the three-eyed witch totem stone statue in the belly of the mountain under the mountain temple, the first thing that came to mind was this thing.
So here he came.
Traveling all the way, I finally came to a short distance under the Buddha statue, looking at the huge Buddha statue that had not been repaired for a long time, so it looked a little dilapidated, the little carpenter stood there silently and quietly.
He looked up and saw that the stone statue was like a mountain, rising from his feet, like the whole world.
Such a stone statue, even if it is broken, can give birth to a mood that makes people worship and worship, and feel that the Buddha is like a mountain, and it is like the whole world.
The little carpenter watched quietly, feeling the beauty of this unique building, while Gu Baiguo next to him was a little dazed, looked at it for a while, and couldn't help asking: "Brother-in-law, you said that it took more than 90 years and the hard work and energy of several generations from the excavation to the completion of this Foshan Mountain...... Why? If you have that kind of effort, why not take some time to do something else, something more meaningful? ”
The little carpenter pointed to the surroundings and patiently explained: "At the foot of Lingyun Mountain, there are three rivers converge, the Min River, the Tsing Yi River, and the Dadu River, and the water potential is quite fierce, and the boat series is often subverted so far. Whenever there is a summer flood, the river water hits the mountain wall, often causing the tragedy of boat destruction and death. At that time, Haitong Zen Master initiated in order to reduce the water potential and purify all sentient beings, and recruited manpower and material resources to cultivate and chisel here......"
Gu Baiguo still couldn't understand: "That can be done something practical and simple, and there is no need to spend nearly a hundred years of effort......"
The little carpenter couldn't help but laugh and said, "This statement is naturally an excuse for Zen Master Haitong, and more importantly, it must be to promote Buddhism." ”
Gu Baiguo nodded and said, "It's really a great achievement, abusing people's power......
The two of them were talking here, but they heard a faint hum, and then an old monk covered in ashes appeared in the distance, with one hand on his chest, and shouted loudly: "Amitabha Buddha......"
With this Buddha horn, the little carpenter suddenly turned his head and looked into the distance.
The three guys who followed them to get off the boat in Leshan were also sneakily hiding on the rocky beach by the river, looking over this way.
The little carpenter ignored the monk in the distance, but with an arrow step, the man rushed to the river.
It's time to get rid of these tails.
The little carpenter used all his strength to lift the ladder, and with a little tiptoe, the man flew like an arrow, and soon rushed closer.
He was menacing, and when a few people by the river saw it, they immediately panicked.
One of them turned and ran, while the other two were so brave that one of them put his hand directly behind his waist, and then pulled out a pistol and shot at the little carpenter.
Bang, bang, bang......
The gunfire was intense, and the bullets slashed past the little carpenter, as if they were about to knock him to the ground.
However, in the next second, the little carpenter suddenly came, and then suddenly raised his foot, and with a poke leg, he kicked the gunman in the chest, and with a burst of energy, the man's internal organs were all shattered, and the man also flew into the air, and finally fell into the river.
At this moment, the man next to him roared "Baga", but he took out a sharp small knife and slashed at the back of the little carpenter in front of him.
The little carpenter did not look back, but with his hand he stretched out, and grabbed the wrist of the man wielding the knife.
The other party seemed to want to struggle, but the little carpenter's side suddenly exerted his strength, and the man's wrist bone was directly broken, not only did the little knife fall to the ground with a "clang", but the person couldn't help but let out a howl like killing a pig.
But that guy is also a ruthless character, after screaming a few times, a pool of black blood flowed from his mouth, and then there was no breath at all.
This is suicide......
When the little carpenter saw this, he did not look too much, but suddenly turned around and rushed into the distance.
After a few ups and downs, he caught up with the fleeing man, reached over, grabbed the man with one hand, and then fell over the shoulder, slamming the man the mud.
The man slammed into the ground, his eyes flashed with stars, and when he saw the little carpenter leaning over, he shouted in a panic: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I'm Chinese......"
When the little carpenter saw that this guy was afraid of death, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Did I say I was going to kill you?" Get up! ”
This guy is a soft bone.
But that's what makes it easier for him to be as strong as the poison-swallowing guy just now, how can he ask for something?
However, at this moment, suddenly something flew through the air and smashed heavily into the little carpenter's side.
The little carpenter thought that he was an accomplice of these people, took a step back, and then fished it with his right hand, and then turned his palm over, and saw that it was actually a polished sandalwood Buddhist bead.
Seeing this, the little carpenter was a little surprised, turned his head, and saw that it was the tall and thin monk just now, who came to him.
The monk was also a little surprised when he saw the little carpenter receiving the Buddha beads he threw with his bare hands, but he still stepped forward and said in a loud voice: "Amitabha, the Buddha is important, the donor must not kill in vain, the sea of suffering is endless, turn back to the shore, please let go of the anger in your heart, otherwise don't blame the old man for being polite......
When the deserter on the ground desperately begged for mercy saw this posture, his eyes rolled, and he immediately shouted: "Zen master save me, Zen master save me......"
He cried out miserably and cried blood, but the monk had to walk briskly a few times, and then stopped between the little carpenter and the man, and then said, "You don't have to be nervous, I am here to keep you safe!" ”
When the man heard this, his heart was overjoyed, and he shouted happily, "Thank you, thank you, Zen Master, ......."
After speaking, he got up from the ground and turned to leave.
At this time, the little carpenter, who had not spoken, raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Did I let you go?" ”
The man was shocked, and his face was frightened, but the person was frozen on the spot and did not dare to move again.
The monk was a little annoyed when he saw that this fierce young man was so faceless, and said, "Young man, you are so angry, do you need the old man to help you spend a while?" ”
After the little carpenter drank the guy, he looked at the monk in front of him and asked, "I don't know what the master is called?" ”
He has been enlightened by the great monk of the precept color, and he still respects the people in Buddhism.
The monk saw that the little carpenter's attitude was quite polite, and the posture that was originally about to make a move was also somewhat restrained, but he still maintained his vigilance to prevent the other party from suddenly breaking out, and then said: "The old man's name is Yongfu, and he is the guardian of Lingyun Temple. Your Excellency is in this important place of Buddhism, as soon as you make a move, you will kill two people in a row, and you are ready to kill the third one, what is this going to do? ”
When the little carpenter heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Which eye did you see that I had killed two people in a row?" The guy who shot me, if I don't kill him, then I'll die, as for the one lying on the ground, he committed suicide by poisoning, okay? ”
This explanation did not satisfy Master Yongfu, and he said coldly: "Anyway, Buddhism is important, and it is easy to kill people at every turn, and the donor is too much. ”
The little carpenter looked at the man behind Master Yongfu with a smile and said, "Master, why don't you ask what this person is for?" Why don't you ask them why they pulled out their guns and killed me? ”
That guy probably had the protection of Master Yongfu, thinking that there was a turnaround, and he shouted loudly at the moment: "I don't know, I'm just passing by......"
The smile on the little carpenter's face froze, and he said, "Speak well." ”
The man was still crying out, and when the little carpenter heard it, his face turned cold, and he said, "You don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, right?" ”
He took a step forward, and the Yongfu Master immediately stopped him and said coldly, "Before the Buddha, you dare to make a time? ”
The little carpenter smiled and said to Gu Baiguo, who rushed over: "Baiguo, help me stop this nosy master, I'll let him take a look, what kind of thing he wants to save......"
Gu Baiguo stepped forward and smiled sweetly: "Okay, brother-in-law." ”
Master Yongfu's face changed: "Demon? ”
