Chapter 803: White Snake
But it was said that in that spring March, it actually snowed peach blossoms.
On the broken bridge of the West Lake, the green willows sway gently in the snow, looking at the lake, the boat is light and floating, and the scenery is beautiful.
Yang Xingzhou sat on the boat, there was a small red clay stove in front of him, and there was a pot of wine squatting on the stove, the fire was booming, and the wine was fragrant, causing fish to jump up on the lake from time to time, and it seemed that they also wanted to drink.
The boatman who was rowing looked envious and said to Yang Xingzhou: "The official brought really good wine, the villain has lived for more than fifty years, and he has never smelled such wine." ”
Yang Xingzhou was dressed in a plain white robe, wearing a scarf on his head, and a long sword hanging from his waist, the whole person looked gentle and elegant, with a humble and gentlemanly demeanor.
At this time, he was twisting a broad bean and throwing it into his mouth, and said with a smile: "My wine is a royal wine, how can I wait for an idler to drink it?" ”
The boatman smiled and said, "It turned out to be imperial wine, no wonder it's so mellow!" ”
Although he is a boatman, but for a long time in the West Lake boat, but also a little knowledge, at this time heard the word "imperial wine", when he was startled, and other idlers will never have the opportunity to drink the imperial wine, and Yang Xingzhou has an extraordinary temperament, majestic and hidden, at a glance it is not an ordinary person, maybe it is really the current emperor's relatives and relatives, so the original respectful attitude, and a little respectful.
This is the West Lake, very close to Lin'an City, the princes and nobles often come here to play, Yang Xingzhou said that he drank the imperial wine, and the boatman did not suspect him.
Yang Xingzhou saw the change in the boatman's face clearly, laughed, and didn't care.
At this moment, his heart suddenly moved, he slowly stood up and looked at the southwest: "Weird, why is there such a big movement?" Who's spying on Lao Tzu? ”
It has been more than ten days since he came to this world, and he has never figured out which copy of this world is a copy of the story, only that the background of the imperial court is the Southern Song Dynasty, and nothing else is very clear.
However, since his first stop in this world was in West Lake, it means that something will definitely happen in this West Lake, or a copy of this world originates from West Lake, which is the experience he has gained from traveling through the small world many times.
Therefore, in order to figure out what kind of world this is, I deliberately bought a house on the edge of the West Lake, and I rowed on the lake every day, enjoying the beautiful scenery and seeing if anything happened.
Today, I was drinking on the boat and enjoying the snow, but I felt that someone in the dark had "looked" at me, and I was taken aback when I boarded, and my spirit instantly followed the direction I sensed and went straight to the southwest.
At the same time, a white snake was successful in cultivating on Qingcheng Mountain in Sichuan, and deliberately found a Guanyin temple to worship Guanyin, wanting to sneak into Emei, seeking Taoism wholeheartedly, and kneeling for Guanyin Bodhisattva guidance.
The white snake turned into a human form, it was a beautiful girl, white clothes like snow, beautiful and unparalleled, after coming to the Guanyin Zen Temple, the panic was so panicked that the monks in the courtyard were born with two hearts, and they did not dare to look directly at such a beautiful woman.
The white snake has been practicing penance on Qingcheng Mountain for more than 1,700 years, and it has become the climate, and after visiting Guanyin, it really alarmed the Guanyin Bodhisattva who is very merciful and compassionate.
The Bodhisattva appeared, sat in the void in the sea of clouds, and asked softly, "Who are you and what are you calling me?" ”
The white snake knelt down and said: "The slave family was originally a white snake on Qingcheng Mountain, and I was fortunate to get a drop of Bodhisattva Yang Zhi Ganlin, and then I got the old mother of Mengli Mountain to teach the law, and practiced for thousands of years to get this body." Now the human form has been solidified, the inner Dan is complete, and I want to enter Emei to cultivate, stay away from the red dust, take refuge in the Three Treasures, and achieve the golden body, so I came to ask the Bodhisattva for guidance. ”
The Bodhisattva smiled and said, "If you don't enter the red dust, how can you get out of the red dust?" Since you have cultivated the human body, you must know that the human body is rare, and you must also know the difficulty of the human body. ”
The white snake said: "Please also ask Master Guanyin for advice!" ”
The Bodhisattva smiled and said: "Everything has cause and effect, you have to cut off the mundane fate, but you must first break the cause and effect, enter the red dust, break the cause and effect, grievances and hatreds, and laugh at it, so that the six roots are pure, and the spiritual platform is clear." ”
The white snake was stunned when he heard this, thought hard, and suddenly remembered that more than a thousand years ago, he almost lost his life at the hands of the snake catcher, and it was a shepherd boy who saved himself and got his life.
I have few debts in my life, but I have not repaid this life-saving grace.
Thinking of this, he was blessed to his heart, kowtowed, and said: "Dare to ask the Bodhisattva, where was the shepherd boy in the past?" ”
The Bodhisattva smiled: "That shepherd boy has been reincarnated for ten lifetimes, and now he has transferred to the Xu family in Zhenjiang and is a scholar. ”
White Snake asked, "Then how can I find him?" ”
The Bodhisattva said: "On the shore of the West Lake, by the broken bridge, swimming in the lake and borrowing an umbrella, it has its own line. ”
When she said this, her eyes looked at the direction of the West Lake, and she seemed to be taken aback: "Huh? How to write off the sword qi and hide the thunder qi in the good West Lake? ”
She retracted her gaze, showed compassion on her face, and said to the white snake: "If you enter the West Lake this time, you must not make a mistake, there are masters staying in the lake, it seems to be a sword immortal, but it seems to be a true disciple, like a Buddha is not a Buddha, like a demon is not a demon, and the origin is not trivial." You...... Don't provoke him! ”
The white snake was taken aback, this great mercy and compassion Guanyin Bodhisattva has boundless mana, vast magical powers, can see the reincarnation of eternity, can save boundless suffering, jade pure bottle of water from the four seas, turning thousands of demons. The willow branches are sprinkled with rain all over the sky, purifying all uncleanness, although it is a bodhisattva, but it is comparable to the Buddha, and now there is a master who she can't see clearly?
How terrifying is the master in the mouth of the Bodhisattva?
She was frightened, and she was about to ask what was going on, but she found that the Bodhisattva had disappeared in the main hall at some point, returned to Putuo Chaoyin Cave, and returned to the purple bamboo forest in the South China Sea.
"The Bodhisattva said that my fate is in the West Lake, but there is a master in the West Lake, it seems that the master is still a ruthless person, so do I still want to go? If I go, I will be skinned and torn apart by that person and practiced into an elixir, wouldn't my cultivation in this life turn into flowing water? ”
This white snake was scheming in his heart, and it was difficult to make decisions, so he finally made up his mind: "I have practiced for more than 1,700 years, how difficult it is!" How could the Dao heart be shaken because of this little obstacle? In order to turn into a human body, I endured a lightning strike once in 500 years, a yin fire forging body once in 500 years, and a yin wind blowing once in 500 years to get this human body. ”
After making up his mind, his expression was firm, and he was about to leave the Zen monastery, when he suddenly shivered, as if he had been seen through from the inside out, and he had a sense of panic, and said in his heart: "It's not good, someone is secretly peeping at me, and I don't know which master it is?" ”
In a panic, he didn't care about being in the Zen courtyard, let out an exclamation, turned into a gust of wind, and ran down the mountain.
West lake.
Yang Xingzhou collected his thoughts and looked curious: "What kind of character is this little lady in white?" Can you still control the wind, fly sand and stones, is it a monster? It wasn't she who peeked at Lao Tzu just now, although she was good, but she couldn't hide my perception, there was someone else who peeked at Lao Tzu! Hey? ”
He looked down at the lake, and saw that there was a dragon swimming under the lake, covered with scales, with two horns on its head, very vigorous, stirring the water of the lake.
"Jiaolong?"
Yang Xingzhou was overjoyed: "I was trying to fight the tooth sacrifice, I haven't eaten the dragon meat yet, but I want to try it this time!" ”
