6. Dafawang Temple

Qi Mu was speeding on the road, and when he arrived at a small town at dawn, he went to the street to ask for the address, and then he knew that this place was Changzi County, and it was still half a distance away from Tonglian City.

Qi Mu found a clean place on the corner of the street, and then took a stone and carved the eight words "Counting the past and the present, Bu Ji is good and evil" on the ground, and then sat down cross-legged, and then took out the Shura mask in his arms, touched it, recalled the past, sighed, and put it on his face.

I sat like this all morning, and although the streets were full of people, no one patronized them. Qi Mu wanted to take the opportunity of setting up a stall to understand the dynamics of Tonglian City and collect some information, but he didn't expect that no one cared.

In the afternoon, there was a vendor selling preserved dried fruit on the street corner. The little boss looked at Qi Mu and smiled very kindly: "Little Taoist, are you a fortune teller?" ”

Qi Mu took off his mask and said with a smile: "Yes." This big brother, count a hexagram? ”

The little boss smiled: "I won't count it." But I also know how to tell fortunes. I can figure out that you're from out of town. First time coming to us. ”

"Yes." Qi Mu smiled: "Big brother is amazing, what else can be calculated?" ”

"I can still figure it out, you don't have money to eat, but it's not for money to calculate here." The little boss said with a smile again.

"Big brother miscalculated," Qi Mu smiled: "I really don't have any money, but I don't eat." ”

"Look at you, coming from other places, aren't you hungry?" The little boss picked up a piece of preserved fruit, handed it over, and said with a smile: "This is a local specialty dried snow rice, you can taste it." ”

Qi Mu stretched out his hand to take it and said with a smile: "I can also calculate that the eldest brother is a good person." ”

The little boss smiled: "Where do I know how to tell hexagrams, I just know how to look at people." If you were a local, you wouldn't be setting up a stall here, and you would look like a foreigner passing through here. ”

"Why is that?" Qi Mu smiled and said, "I'm very good at divination, but it's a pity that no one came to give it a try." ”

"What's there to try?" The little boss said: "Our eldest son is from the county, I don't believe anything. The only one who believes in the Lama Buddha here is us, and that is really effective, much better than what you can do casually. ”

Qi Mu smiled and said, "Lama Buddha, what is that?" ”

The little boss showed a look of reverence and said with a smile: "In our county, there is the largest living Buddha temple, good guy, there are many people there." We locals often go there to make wishes, as long as we are sincere, we will definitely be able to achieve it, very spiritual, very spiritual. ”

Qi Mu thought for a while, stood up and said with a smile: "Thank you eldest brother for Xue Migan, since you are here, I will go to see your lama temple." ”

The little boss hurriedly waved his hand, sincerely afraid: "Look at what, ouch, the little Taoist priest can't speak." It's to meet, meet! ”

Qi Mu said goodbye to the kind-hearted little boss, continued to move forward in the direction of the flow of people, and arrived at the center of the county after a while, and sure enough, he saw a temple with gorgeous houses and high eaves. Most of the ordinary temples have yellow walls and red tiles, and this temple has white walls and black tiles, which is very arrogant. There is a horizontal plaque on the main entrance, four gilded characters: Dafawang Temple.

Qi Mu walked to the door, there were many people in the shops on both sides of the street, and there was an endless stream of people entering and leaving the Dafa Wang Temple. He followed the flow of people in, and the setting in this temple was very similar to the Pure Yang Taoist Temple, but it was many times larger. Most of them were ordinary people, and occasionally a few lamas wearing red clothes and yellow hats passed by, and everyone bowed their heads in awe, but those lamas were arrogant and never bowed their heads.

Qi Mu was looking at the murals on the temple, and suddenly there was warm applause next to him, and he saw a lot of people standing in the courtyard, surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, and two red-clothed lamas were sitting opposite each other in the middle. The pilgrim next to him said excitedly: "What a coincidence, just in time for the discussion of Buddhism!" ”

Another person also said: "It's really rare, hurry up and squeeze forward, no matter who wins, you can get a lot of lotteries!" ”

Seeing that there were a lot of people around, a lama raised his palm with one hand and said with a smile: "Ayiba, you ask the question first." ”

Ayiba bowed his head slightly and said with a smile: "Then it would be disrespectful." Drew, I have something in mind this morning, and I just happened to talk to you. When I woke up in the morning, I saw that the clouds on the horizon were still clouds, and when it was close to noon, I looked at the clouds again, but I found that the clouds were not clouds. Why, you say? ”

Drew said with a smile: "The Buddha said that all beings in the Six Realms are illusory, and in the heart in front of them, they are also illusions. Therefore what you see in the morning is not a cloud, and what you see at noon is not a cloud. It's just that the Buddha threw down a grain of soil and lit up ten thousand stars on earth. ”

Everyone present applauded, especially the elderly, who felt that this lama was speaking the truth of the world, and they wanted to kneel on the ground at any time, kowtow and pray.

Ayiba smiled and said, "Okay." You make the question. ”

Drew said, "I'm ready for today's question. This is the only question to ask, and if I answer it, I will lose. ”

Ayiba listened attentively, but heard Drew say: "The Buddha said that all dharmas are empty, since everything is empty, why is there still a lifetime?" ”

Ayiba smiled: "Isn't it easy? Life in the world is regarded as an experience, and the emptiness is exhausted, and the ten thousand laws are empty. ”

Drew asked, "Then why do you rejoice instead of being trained?" ”

"You and I have rejoiced in cultivating Buddhism." Ayiba replied.

"Since you have to rejoice when you cultivate Buddha, why are there fewer cultivators and more people who don't?" Drew pressed on.

Ayiba smiled: "There are few people who have the heart of Buddha, and there are many people who are greedy. ”

"How can I have a Buddha mind?" Drew asked again.

Ayiba said: "Let go of the burden around me, and return to my own freedom." ”

Drew made a look of abrupt realization: "I see, I see." Those who can understand are those who are in my door. ”

The two stood up as they spoke, facing each other with their backs, and a disciple next to them pushed a merit box in front of them. The two of them did not speak, and a pilgrim around shouted, "I understand! Money is a burden, and I donated it all! ”

He walked up to Ayiba, directly stuffed a card into it, and then said, "Master, this is the money I used to treat my daughter, and I donated it all." ”

Ayiba stretched out his hand, pressed the man's head, and said with a smile: "Your daughter is fine, go ahead." ”

The man was overjoyed and turned away.

The others all stepped forward one after another, donating money to the merit box, and the shots were all thick. The merit box is also designed with an open opening, which shows that the money is usually collected in a stack.

Qi Mu saw it in his eyes and frowned, these two lamas were muttering a lot, it was just a means to cheat money. It's just that these pilgrims around them all ate this set, and took out all the money they had.

Drew pushed the box forward, and when he got to Qi Mu, he didn't speak. Qi Mu looked down and didn't speak. The surrounding people looked at Qi Mu with disdain.

Drew smiled: "This little brother has a relationship with the Buddha. ”

Qi Mu said, "Where is the Buddha? I didn't see it. ”

An old lady couldn't help but step forward and pushed Qi Mu, but saw that Qi Mu didn't move. The old lady shouted: "You little Taoist priest, you really have no wisdom roots." Master, let this Taoist priest go out, you have polluted the air of this Great Fawang Temple! ”

Drew smiled and said, "Regardless of Buddhism, if you enter this door, you are destined." Little brother, don't you understand everything you just said? Please let go of your worries. ”

"I don't have any money." Qi Mu smiled and said: "I have troubles, and my troubles are poverty." You asked me to let go of my worries and push this box again, did you want to give me the money? ”

Drew's face turned to the side, and there was already a shouting and scolding from Qi Mu around him. Ayiba walked over, looked Qi Mu up and down, and said with a smile: "This little brother is extraordinary, and if you can meet here today, you will have a relationship with the Buddha." Regardless of the rest, please go to the side hall and try vegetarian dishes. ”

Drew was about to have a seizure, but Ayiba pulled him and shook his head slightly. Drew seemed to have an understanding, put on a humble look, and said with a smile: "Please sit in the side hall." ”

Qi Mu thought to himself: It depends on what tricks you have. He didn't answer, but strode out, went around in a circle, and then kicked open the door of the side hall and walked in.

After a while, Drew and Ayiba walked in. Ayiba closed the door tightly, turned around and smiled: "I don't know that the messenger is coming today, don't be surprised." ”

Qi Mu was stunned, messenger? What does that mean? Did these two lamas recognize the wrong person?

His mind was active, and he counted it in an instant, and then he was lukewarm, and he snorted.

Drew laughed, "Every time the messenger is different. Last month was a messenger for the elderly, and last month was a little child. This time I changed to a Taoist priest, if it wasn't for Ayiba reminding me, I wouldn't have thought of it. ”

Ayiba smiled and said, "The messenger is constantly changing his identity, which is exactly the means of being careful, and we really admire it." ”

Qi Mu stood up and turned his back to the two of them, afraid of being detected by something. He pretended to be ambiguous and said, "How's it going?" ”

Ayiba smiled and said, "Very good. With a monthly income of more than one million, the people here are really easy to deceive, and I think that in a few months, we can withdraw. ”

Qi Mu's heart sank, these people are really cheating money, not a good thing. But what is the matter with the messenger of their mouth?

Ayiba saw that Qi Mu didn't speak, but when he was not satisfied, he hurriedly said: "This month could have made another breakthrough, but I really encountered some problems, I have already told another messenger last time, I don't know how to deal with this matter?" ”
