Chapter 1042: Thousands of Years of Unheard Jizo
Lin Mo was waiting for Nie San's answer, and Nie San was silent for a long time before he finally spoke slowly:
"I haven't heard of Jizo for a thousand years."
In just six words, the meaning contained in it made Lin Mo feel surprised, this was completely different from what he knew, and after Nie San finished saying this, he got up, glanced at Lin Mo, and then turned to leave.
Obviously, this is the limit of what Nie San can say, and the reason why he left is to show his attitude, and this answer is enough to offset the value of these flowers on the other side.
"I haven't heard of Jizo for a thousand years..."
Lin Mo muttered to himself, repeating what he said, Nie San left, and he didn't stop it, because the news was shocking enough.
These six words can be understood from many aspects, and no matter which aspect they are, they are enough to shock Lin Mo.
I haven't heard of Jizo for thousands of years, the simplest understanding is that in this world, there is indeed such an existence as Jizo King, but it was a thousand years ago, and there was indeed Jizo, that is, those myths and legends are not necessarily completely fake.
At the same time, it also shows that this Nie San has existed for at least a thousand years.
It's a bit incredible that an old ghost who has lived for a thousand years is just a ghost handsome, but who doesn't have a secret?
And the other point makes it clear that at this time, the underworld, that is, the status quo of the underworld, has not heard of Jizo for thousands of years, which shows that there is no legend of the Jizo King in the underworld now, and it is even possible that not many people know about the existence of the Jizo King.
It's just that Jizo is regarded as a story or a legendary existence, and ordinary people may not understand the relationship between this underworld and Buddhism, but if you think about this Buddhist theory, you can understand it.
Buddhism talks about this cause and effect, the cause of the past life, the effect of this life, the cause of this life, the effect of the next life, there is a cycle of cause and effect, and retribution is unpleasant.
It is precisely because of the existence of the six reincarnations, there are past and present lives, that there is a cycle of cause and effect, if there are no six reincarnations, then the so-called theory of cause and effect has a loophole.
It can be seen that good people are lonely and helpless all their lives, but wicked people can be rich and rich, and their children and grandchildren are full, and good people do not pay for their lives, and disasters will be left for thousands of years, there are definitely many such things, and in the case of unexplained circumstances, how can we talk about merit?
If you accumulate merit and leave it for future generations, cultivate merit, accumulate yin virtue, return the sins of the previous life, and repair the law of the future life, there is no explanation for the loopholes in this.
Therefore, Jizo sent a grand vision, and hell did not swear to become a Buddha, and then he was like an underworld, wanting to eliminate his sins.
But if it is based on mythology, it is not difficult to find that this underworld and the heavenly court are one, and the king of Hades is in charge of the underworld, but he still needs to go to the heavenly court and the gods to report, which shows that this is the jurisdiction of the same line.
In the heavenly court, although the six realms of reincarnation are useful, the heavenly court is the Taoist court, and the six realms of reincarnation are not as useful as the Buddhist family for the heavenly court.
Therefore, although the underground is not involved in the normal management of the underworld, and has never even interfered in the matter of reincarnation, it has the meaning of supervision.
Although it seems to be only for the sake of degree, it is also an important step in the layout of Buddhism.
On the other hand, in mythology, Taoism has the battle of the gods, and the Buddhists have the meaning of westward travel, although the battle of the gods seems to be the dispute between the Shang Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty, but in fact, behind it is the dispute between the exposition of religion and the interception of religion, and it is also a war of Taoism in order to rectify the court.
As for the Tang Dynasty, when he traveled west, Sanzang learned scriptures, collected the monkey king Sun Wukong, Tianpeng Marshal Zhu Bajie, the curtain general Sha Monk, and the little white dragon, all the way west, experienced eighty-one difficulties, obtained the true scriptures, and promoted Buddhism.
But in fact, it is not difficult to see that this is an exchange of interests between Taoists and Buddhists.
In the meantime, eighty-one difficulties, except for a few monsters with no background, most of them are either a certain immortal family sitting on a boy, a mount, or the demon is turned into an immortal, and the only ones who really die are those little monsters who have no background behind them.
Walking the hard road, after nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, it is the Taoist family who is used, the Taoist people are beaten, and the ownerless demon is destroyed.
A good game of chess played by the superiors, a good show played by the executor, deceived those low-level demons, people who did not obey discipline, and all kinds of miracles manifested during this period, making those ordinary people more awe of the gods and Buddhas.
The Taoists harvested a group of thugs and rectified the chaos of the goblins, and the Buddhists gave the golden body to the golden cicada, a disciple of the Buddha, with immeasurable merits.
A big picture, in which thousands of small plays, will be the unruly Monkey King to play a group of turns, the legend of the success of the scriptures, the Monkey King Sun Wukong became a fight to defeat the Holy Buddha, but at that time the real Monkey King or the fake Monkey King, no one knows.
If it is false, then the Monkey King has long since died, and if it is true, when he becomes a Buddha, this Monkey King will no longer be the Monkey King.
There is no arrogance, no momentum, although he has taken the confinement, but invisibly, he has long been entangled in chains, like an eagle dog, even if he is not dead, he is still dead.
But this is just a legend, and when future generations listen to the story, it is just a story, and time has passed, whether it is true or false, who knows?
Archaeological history, to find the truth, there is evidence, there is strong evidence, only a story, even if it is another layout, but it is only a story.
The rumors are unreliable, and the gods have not seen them, then this is true.
Lin Mo asked this question, not only to satisfy his master's doubts, but also to know whether there really were immortals and Buddhas in this world, and there was no end to the path of cultivation.
If there are ghosts, there will be reincarnation, and if there is reincarnation, there should be powerful people, and there will be the existence of the underworld, so it is inevitable that people will not wonder if there are really immortals and Buddhas.
If you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean that you really haven't, but from Nie San's answer, it seems that this matter is still a mystery.
Why is this question asked?
The existence of the Su Shi Mirror, the golden crack sealed in the mirror, made Lin Mo feel that the power did not seem to exist in the world, but after getting such an answer, Lin Mo had no way to find out, so he could only put it aside.
And this thousand years have not heard of the hidden place, but this thousand years have made Lin Mo remember it in his heart.
If you haven't heard of it for a thousand years, did it really exist a thousand years ago?
Could it be that something happened at some point in time a thousand years ago that finally caused everything to become what it is now?
Nie San had already gone to find the remaining flowers on the other side, and at this time only Lin Mo was left alone, no one could give Lin Mo an answer to this question, and he had no way to verify, in a thousand years, there were too many things that could happen, the change of dynasties, and the development of civilization.
Now the world is full of science and technology, theory, reason, science, is the mainstream of this era, believe in God and Buddha, it is better to believe in yourself, believe in hard work.
"Qi Feng!"
While Lin Mo was thinking, Liao Yu had already finished explaining to the teacher and ran back again, seeing that Nie San had left, Liao Yu was a little puzzled.
"What about Brother Nie? Why wasn't he there? ”
"He still has business to do, we should go back to the bookstore."
The corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a slight smile, Lin Mo still has a lot of good feelings for Liao Yu, but he doesn't know who this simple girl is, and who is the chess piece used to play, this feeling of being manipulated still makes Lin Mo a little unhappy.
He didn't move, but someone arranged these people to find him, and now that I think about it, when Liao Yu came to the bookstore, it was really a coincidence.
Fenglin Street is so far away from Qingda, even if Liao Yu doesn't come early, he won't come late, Lin Mo just changed her identity and took over the store, she ran over, and she ordered a book in the bookstore for some reason, and then forgot to bring money.
All this was too coincidental, as if someone in the dark was controlling all this, so that Lin Mo was involved in this chaos.
At this time, Lin Mo was already a little involuntarily, even if he saw all this, he had no way to get out, in the game, even if he jumped out of a circle, he felt that he had stayed out of the matter, but that was just your feeling.
In fact, you're just falling into another circle, and you're still on that chessboard.
is like the legendary Sun Monkey in Journey to the West, who thought that he had jumped out of the Five Fingers Mountain of the Buddha, but in the end he found that it was just a joke.
Liao Yu helped Lin Mo up, and the two walked towards the gate of Qingda, walking more than ten meters, Lin Mo stopped, turned his head to look at the girls' dormitory, shook his head and chuckled, turned around, and walked away...
