Chapter 139: Seeing the Buddha and Becoming a Demon
There are 10,000 fireworks in the Purple Ban, and the Aoshan Palace leans on the clear sky. The Jade Emperor arches on the clouds, and the characters swim in the land and sea.
When the fireworks are lit up in the night sky, the whole of Kyoto is as beautiful as the sky on earth.
"Master, the fireworks have been set off, presumably the emperor should be having fun with the people in Chengtianmen at this time, should we go over and have a look?"
Xiao Lizi went back very angrily, "What are you going to do, aren't you comfortable now?" ”
Lan Xi glared at Xiao Lizi, this kid took the wrong medicine today, so he did his best to help. Could it really be that the Holy Maiden of Southern Xinjiang succeeded in ascending to the throne, how could she have to fight, and at the critical moment, how could she be angry with His Royal Highness the Night King?
"Lanxi, Xiao Lizi is right. There were a lot of people there. Bai Luchao stood on tiptoe and looked ahead, "It seems that there is a group of nerds, meeting friends with texts, do you want us to join in the fun?" ”
Yes! Hearing this, Xiao Lizi and Lan Xi were shocked, could it be that tomorrow night, the palace will be blocked by the smoked officials and nobles who came to the door to apologize.
"Master, it's okay to go, or let's all put on a veil!"
Bai Lu nodded noncommittally.
Lan Xi hurriedly took out his handkerchief and tied it to Bai Lu, looking left and right, he felt more mysterious and attractive.
"Master, this veil is not good, today you have been asked by hundreds of people in amazement, whether it is Chang'e who has descended to earth, or let's wear a ghost-faced man!"
Bai Lu remembered the troubles along the way, and hurriedly said, "How fierce and how to choose." ”
Xiao Lizi quickly bought three fierce black skull masks from a stall not far away, and said to himself: "Fairies become witches, they won't scare crying children." ”
The three of them walked towards the restaurant on the side. As soon as I entered the door, a group of scholars were talking about the past and the present. The upstairs and downstairs were full, but they were all scholars, and occasionally a few veiled ladies were in the mix.
Bai Lu and the three of them had no choice but to crowd together with a group of scholars with heads and faces inside the gate.
On the round platform in the center of the restaurant, several boys and girls knelt upright, holding various offerings in their hands, worshipping the moon and inviting Chang'e to descend to earth.
Bai Lu looked at this strange ritual that was constantly going on curiously, it was the first time he had seen it, it was very novel. Then he asked, "Can you really invite Chang'e to come down to earth?"
Xiao Lizi whispered: "I heard that it is possible, in previous years, after Chang'e went down to earth, she would leave a miracle on the rice in the middle!" However, not every year. ”
Bai Lu stared suspiciously at the white rice in the middle flower plate, and did not dare to blink his eyes, for fear of missing the miracle.
The time for a cup of tea passed quickly, and there was still no change on the round table.
At this time, a polite scholar in Tsing Yi stepped forward and recited to the moon: "Demure is like a delicate flower shining on the water, and the action is like a weak willow supporting the wind." ”
The plate was still untouched, and the scholar was booed, "Liu Caizi, my heart is insincere!" Let's go down. ”
Then, a white-clothed scholar came up, saluted everyone, and chanted: "If it weren't for the jade mountain, I would have sent a phoenix to the moon of Yaotai." ”
The scholar waited for a while, but there was still no movement on the rice plate, and he was unwillingly booed by everyone.
Another scholar came up, shook his head at the moon and said, "A branch of red dew condenses incense, and the clouds and rain Wushan are in vain." ”
"Chang'e should repent of stealing the elixir, the blue sea and blue sky and night heart."
"Beauty is like a flower across the clouds! There is a long sky above the green and dark, and there are waves of water below. ”
"The Moon Palace is cold and Guituantuan, and the flowers bloom every year. In the world, we say that the heavens are in the sky, but I don't know that the heavens remember the world. ”
......
The scholars went up one after another, and came down one after another, and the poems of praise and contempt were sung again, but they didn't invite Fairy Chang'e to come down to earth.
The crowd began to whisper, and the originally sacred blessing ceremony soon turned into a vegetable market, and the scholars upstairs and downstairs quickly pinched each other, like a group of old mothers crossing their legs and arguing with each other.
"Liu Jieyuan, is this year's boy a boy or a girl?"
The boys and girls kneeling on the round platform and carrying the offerings trembled one by one, and their tears flowed silently, and they did not dare to move.
"Hehehe, do you want to inspect the goods on the spot? Get lost! ”
"Did someone steal the sacrifice in the back kitchen? Unforgivable! ”
"The supervision is unfavorable, change the organizer next year, change the restaurant!" The scholar's words have knocked down the lives and deaths of many people without knowing it.
"Isn't there a talented person with both ability and political integrity this year?"
"Unfortunate!"
"Hey, if you want me to say, Chang'e is a woman who has lost her morality, why bother inviting her"
.......
Gradually, these people put their mouths on the moral condemnation of Chang'e stealing the elixir.
The more Bai Lu listened, the more angry he became, these people couldn't invite the immortals themselves, so they insulted them, where did they have the appearance of reading the number of saints, and they wasted more than half an hour here.
"What's the noise, can't you catch God?" Bai Lu shouted angrily.
"The Buddha said: There is a Buddha in the heart, there is a Buddha in the eyes, there is a demon in the heart, and there is a demon in the eyes. You people, if you don't reflect on yourself, you can do this with a game of receiving gods, and read the books of the sages in vain. ”
With a blow to the head, the scholar was furious. "What are you little girl running to do, this is the land of saints, get out!"
"The land of saints, who stipulated it, the emperor?" Bai Lu sneered: "I don't respect the moon god, and I want to use the name of the moon god as a springboard, it's really a good calculation." ”
Hmph, it's just not that Zhu Ziyu is even more shameless.
When the scholars heard this, their faces were extremely ugly, and they rushed towards Bai Lu with fierce gods, Lan Xi and Xiao Lizi hurriedly blocked in front, "My master is young and ignorant, don't blame, don't blame!" ”
Master, how can you kill a boatload of people with a single rod! Isn't that an outrage?
"Oh, then you say, how is the moon god?" Liu Xie Yuan said with an arrogant expression.
Bai Lu pushed away Lan Xi and Xiao Lizi, stepped forward and said: "The Cold Food Festival is to worship the loyal monarch and patriotism of Jie Zitui, and not to ask for good rewards; The Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate Qu Yuan's concern for the country, love for the people, loyalty and unyielding; The midyear festival is to pay tribute to the ancestors' diligence and bravery, and promote filial piety; Even the Chinese New Year, in order to commemorate the defeat of the New Year beast, the ancestors lived a stable life, is it that our ancestors have a convulsion in their heads, and every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, go to worship a person whose female morality is damaged?"
"The Book of Mountains and Seas says ......"
"No matter what book says it, can you show proof that what he wrote is true? I only know that the heart is compared to the heart, if the wife of the god of war is only to become an immortal for herself and abandon her husband, even if the god of war does not care and misses it every day, will the neighbors also become lovesick and worship on this day every year? ”
Bai Lu grabbed the white, "If you want me to say, what can be remembered is beautiful after all, why don't you think about the good, you must see the Buddha and become a demon?" If you want me to say, the moon god is undoubtedly the beauty in the hearts of the ancestors back then, and it is worthy of their children and grandchildren to worship. ”
As soon as Bai Lu's words fell, the white rice plate less than a zhang in the middle turned out to be windless and no one automatically got up, and soon, a phoenix pattern appeared on the rice plate, and the whole restaurant was soaked in the strong aroma of osmanthus flowers.
"Manifest, manifest, manifest!"
The whole restaurant was amazed by surprise and incredulity.
Bai Lu looked at the white phoenix in the middle, her heart jumped suddenly, and she hurriedly pulled Xiao Lizi and Lan Xi to fly out of the restaurant before everyone came back to their senses.
God, you're in trouble again!
