Chapter 144: Triple Rebirth Buddha
There was really no one on the third floor, strictly speaking, there was no one.
The guy led Ning Qiu and the others to a private room next to them, wiped the table with the towel on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "I don't know what dishes you want, the signature dish of our restaurant, Qiankun Tender Duck, is very good, and the reputation is very high......
Ning Qiu took out a few pieces of broken silver, weighed the weight, and put them on the table: "Qiankun tender duck is okay, count it as one!" For the rest, you can serve some exquisite dishes according to the money, and there are only two of us, and too many will not be able to eat......"
A few pieces of silver were worth about four or five hundred copper coins, and the man hurriedly bent down and picked them up: "Yes, you two later, the dishes ......will come soon," and the man went downstairs with a sigh.
He spoke quickly, very quickly, and after a quarter of an hour or so, that is, about 15 minutes, he came up, holding a large plate in each hand, and walking without the slightest shaking, and his skills were solid......
Place the plate on the table and open the cover to reveal a fish and a duck.
He shouted: "Qiankun soft duck and angelfish, the two of them use slowly, and the other dishes are behind." ”
After the guy left, Ning Qiu took out two pairs of chopsticks from the wooden tube, handed a pair to the little girl, he touched the soft duck with the tip of the chopsticks, only to see that the duck was swaying like jelly, he thought about it, changed to a spoon, and dug lightly on the duck, and easily dug a spoonful of duck meat......
Sure enough, it was a soft duck, it was indeed very soft, he tasted it, and for the tongue that had tasted all kinds of delicacies and delicacies in reality, it tasted good, not greasy or oily.
When the little girl saw him move his chopsticks, she followed suit, carefully holding the fish and meat, for fear that any drop of soup would fall on the table. She chewed the fish gently, her cheeks were slightly red, and she was intoxicated when she ate something, as if what was in front of her was not eating in the mortal world, but the jade liquid in the sky, like dragon liver and phoenix gall.
Shaking his head slightly, he smiled.
Ning Qiu stroked her head: "There are many more, enough for us to eat." ”
At this time, there was a faint sound of suona and gongs and drums outside, neither like a happy event nor a funeral, he pushed open the window next to him, and used the fork rod next to him to stand it, looking at the source of the sound, only to see a group of people walking slowly from a distance, about forty or fifty people, dressed in brown-red robes, because there is only half of it, plus there are countless checkeres embroidered on it, it looks more like a robe......
Their faces were smeared with a thick white powder, and they wore high hats of the same color as their robes on their heads, their hands folded, and their mouths were full of solemnity......
The sound of suona gongs and drums came from the four people who walked in the front, they respectively held suona in their hands, held gongs, held drums, pinched flutes, and played inexplicable tunes while walking, which reminded Ning Qiu of the first time he met the Yin soldiers crossing the border......
In the center of the procession there is a large brown and yellow sedan chair, except that the bottom of the sedan chair is square, and the top is cylindrical, as if the cylindrical mosquito net is placed on the bed and carried away.
I don't know where the wind came from, and the mosquito nets ...... The curtain blows a corner, revealing what's inside.
Ning Qiu squinted his eyes, it was actually a statue of a god, dressed almost like the others, but even more gorgeous, it folded its hands, lowered its head slightly, its eyelids drooped slightly, and it couldn't tell whether it was open or closed, with the faint worried expression on its face, it gave people a feeling of pity for all beings......
The people of the town, whether men, women and children, or rich and poor, saw this procession, and they all lay on both sides of the road, clasped their hands together and prayed devoutly......
The guy happened to come up with a plate, Ning Qiu looked out the window and said, "What are the people in the town worshipping?" ”
Hearing his words, the man pricked up his ears, and heard the faint sound of suona gongs and drums outside, and he hurriedly ran to the window and prayed with his hands folded. Because of his proximity, Ning Qiu heard him come and go back and forth in his mouth, and muttered a sentence: "Ask the three-born Buddha of great mercy and compassion to bless all sentient beings with happiness." ”
The Triple Born Buddha of Great Compassion?
Is it the denomination that people in this world believe in?
The cold wind rose, and drilled into the private room through the gap in the window, and it was cold, and at this time, the curtain on the sedan chair was blown open again!
Ning Qiu raised his eyebrows and smiled, a little interesting.
I saw the statue of the three-reborn Buddha in the sedan chair, from the original look of bowing his head and worrying to looking up and smiling, and its lifeless paint painted eyes looked straight in the direction of the private room on the third floor of the restaurant......
and Ning Qiu's gaze was connected......
Eyes intertwined for a moment.
The corner of her clothes was tugged, it was a little girl, she leaned against her side in a little panic, at a loss.
Ning Qiu patted her head lightly, and then looked at the statue of the Triple Rebirth Buddha, only to see that it had returned to its original appearance of bowing its head and worrying, as if what had just met her gaze was just a temporary hallucination. But he knew that his thinking was very clear, and it was impossible for him to hallucinate, when he ate Luo Yueqi's Thousand Soul Fruits for nothing......
And while the soul strength increases, the spiritual strength also increases.
Like a ghost possession, mental interference with these means, he has a strong immunity......
The team slowly walked away with a voice, and gradually disappeared at the end of the street in the town, and the guy standing on the side woke up like a dream, and he said embarrassedly: "Guest officer, what did you ask just now, the little one who was anxious to pray for the triple rebirth Buddha, didn't listen carefully......"
Ning Qiu repeated: "Who are they, and what are the Triple Rebirth Buddhas?" ”
The guy looked at Ning Qiu and said strangely: "Could it be that the guest officer is from outside Nanyan?" In any case, this three-reborn Buddha is the state religion of our Great Southern Yan Dynasty, and the national teacher is the Venerable Master of the Triple Red Qin (Qin), who holds the Dharma Conference of the Triple Rebirth Buddha every year to pray for His Majesty the Emperor and our people......"
He said very mysteriously: "Just now it was a Buddha tour, by the monks who have attained the Buddha with the Buddha nature of the three rebirth of the Buddha, traveling around to drive away evil spirits and eliminate filth, I don't know if you know, didn't we have a big drought in the north of Nanyan a while ago, a few days ago there was no warning of the big drought, and it suddenly disappeared, do you know what's going on?" ”
Ning Qiu smiled and said extremely cooperatively: "What's going on, could it be related to the Triple Rebirth Buddha?" ”
The guy slapped his thigh hard and looked at him with the eyes of a child: "Isn't it, it is said that the Venerable Master of the Triple Red Qin, who is far away in Yandu, learned of the people's suffering, and immediately spent ten years of life to exert boundless Buddhism, influence the Buddha in the sky, and specially sent the golden-bodied Arhat down to destroy the drought ghost and collect the drought ......"
When did I become a Golden Arhat?
It's kind of interesting......
"Nonsense, the big drought obviously the uncle went to the mountains to ......"
The little girl couldn't help it, and immediately wanted to refute the guy's words.
Ning Qu reached out and scooped a spoonful of duck meat into her mouth and said with a smile: "Master Hongqin is so considerate of the common people, he is a great benevolent person who is kind from the inside to the outside...... It's really a great blessing for Da Nanyan......"
