Chapter 1067: The Land of Nothing
Assan-sang wanted to persuade her to change her ways, but Asa-sang also understood that if she said this, she might not be able to change anything.
"Yin Mo, why don't you listen to my story?"
"Okay, let's hear it." Asa-san looked at her, but the sister-in-law shook her head vigilantly. "Master, nine times out of ten, her words are deceitful, how can you listen to him?"
"Oh," the Rakshasa laughed instead of being angry, "it turns out that your master is really her, and I will say, you are a mortal, but you can do anything, so it is." He said so.
"I don't know anything, all I can do is faith, faith."
"Now, let's sit back and talk. Do you have the courage to go with me to a land of nowhere? The Rakshasa glanced at the maiden defiantly, and the maiden looked very disapproving, and also sneered at the look. What is there to be afraid of, if I dare to openly challenge you, I will dare to go anywhere with you, but where is this land of nothingness? ”
"As the name suggests, it is the past tense, or the future tense, in short, it has nothing to do with the present." The Rakshasa woman said: "Xi, oh, I want to come, just come." As she spoke, the Rakshasa stood up and went to the front, just now, there was still a golden temple in front of her, and there were still bright carvings, but now, everything was completely different.
Now, these beautiful scenery have withered, and the colorful colors full of vitality outside have been replaced, and the outside is a spring landscape, the sister-in-law and the Rakshasa woman are walking forward, but the light mulberry is also by their side.
Assangdao: "Don't be afraid, this is her dream." ”
"Oh, I see." The sister-in-law said, in fact, although she knew that it was a dream, the sister-in-law still felt afraid, she followed Asa-sang step by inch, and the two walked forward, to the front, it seemed to be a tunnel, it was dark here, and there was no light.
In front of him was a dazzling white light, the blazing porcelain white light, so that he couldn't open his eyes if he wanted to, Assan-sang followed the girl and continued to walk forward, and when he got to the front, what appeared in front of him was a beautiful scenery in the suburbs.
Asa Sang found that this was a banquet, and only after asking did he know that it was the birthday of the Bodhisattva, but the two didn't know where this illusion was going to lead them.
They followed the good men and women and entered a temple, which was very beautiful, carved beams and paintings, and so delicate that it was incredible. The horizontal wood is decorated with beautiful tortoiseshell and clams, extreme black, and pearlescent white, which is refreshing.
In this temple, the Bodhisattva treasure *, the eyebrows and good eyes, the so-called people rely on clothes, Buddha relies on gold, here the wind Bodhisattva shines, beautiful to the extreme.
The two walked forward, the sister-in-law reminded Qiansang to look at the temple door, Qiansang raised his eyes, and saw the shining three big characters - "Baolin Garden", entering Baolin Garden, Qiansang fixed his eyes and saw the beautiful Bodhisattva in the center, the Bodhisattva is the statue of Guanzi.
A few monks didn't see how to chant the Buddha, but they were just busy around the Bodhisattva, and Qiansang was also attracted by this Bodhisattva.
He stared.
"Girl, this Bodhisattva is really noble." The sister-in-law has been to many dojos and seen countless bodhisattvas, but as in front of her, after all, it is the first time, her eyes are completely attracted, and the bodhisattva is shining brightly, like a night pearl in the dark.
"This bodhisattva is indeed very noble." Asa-san nodded.
When the monks saw a group of people coming in, they found that they were dignitaries and nobles, so they greeted them respectfully, "Zhang Yuanwai, I haven't been here for a long time, and today the temple door is open to welcome your first stick of incense, and you are only here now." ”
"Hey, don't say it, I've been unlucky lately, come and worship the Buddha, drive away the bad luck." Zhang Yuanwai said while giving a string of copper coins to the monk, and the monk smiled happily and led Zhang Yuanwai to rejoice.
Seeing this, Asa-san sighed.
A ragged beggar walked in outside, and the group of people raised their eyebrows angrily, "What are you doing, this is the pure place of Buddhism, and is it also the place where you stinky begging for food come from?" The monks stared at the dying stinky man at the door.
The man staggered in, the broken bowl in his hand raised, "Please, please, okay, I'm already ......"
"I haven't eaten in three days, right?" In the back hall, out of a majestic old monk, the old monk's eyebrows are very elegant, his eyes are over the good men and women, and the poisonous arrow is aimed at the face of the beggar at the door, the skinny beggar, how many times has seen such a gaze, hurriedly retreated, ready to escape.
"Is this also where you came from? Why don't you get out of here, is such a quiet place in the Buddha Gate where you cry hunger and cold? The old monk waved his hand and drove away the people at the door like flies.
"Sin, sin." The old monk reproached the monk next to him, "You too, what are you doing with this person in well-behaved?" What if he brought the filth with him? ”
"Oh, Zhang Yuanwai, please be good." Here, when he saw Zhang Yuanwai, his eyes immediately became flattering, as if a mosquito had seen blood.
But Asa Sang noticed that this is a monk who judges people by his appearance, as long as he sees the poor, he ignores them, and as long as he sees the rich, he is happy to greet him.
"No wonder it doesn't work to worship the Buddha here." Qiansang pursed her lips, and even the onlooker's sister-in-law knew, and sneered: "Yes, the people outside are hungry and almost starving to death, and they don't pay attention to it, how can such an iron-hearted person move the heavens?" ”
"Let's see." Shallow mulberry reminds.
The sister-in-law stood beside Asao-san, and the two continued to watch, and the beggar was robbed of everything, and went dejectedly, and saw that the beggar had gone.
"Abbot, it's not that we are not careful today, let this beggar in, it is, today is the birthday of Guanzi, there are too many idle people outside, so there are fish that have slipped through the net." A monk who knew the guest said so.
When the abbot heard this, he said, "Deport these people, this is a clean place, how can you allow these people to come and go?" ”
"Yes, yes." A group of monks went outside with wooden sticks.
With a hypocritical smile on his face, the abbot burned incense to the Bodhisattva, and at this moment, a girl of five or six years old walked in from outside, holding a lotus flower in her hand, and she went straight to the golden bodhisattva.
Seeing this scene, the abbot was shocked and chased after him in a panic - "Little girl, what are you doing?" ”
"Lord Abbot, can I exchange the lotus flower in my hand for your golden-bodied bodhisattva?"
"Lotus for Bodhisattva? You're too whimsical, aren't you, your little girl's child? Can your lotus flower be compared to me, a golden-bodied bodhisattva? My golden-bodied Bodhisattva is cast out of 100,000 taels of gold, 100,000 taels of gold, and you, the lotus flower, are everywhere, aren't you dreaming of the autumn season? ”
"Your Excellency, that's not what you say." The little girl was not shocked, and said slowly: "How good is your golden body Bodhisattva, but it is nothing more than a dead thing, but my lotus flower, but it is endless, I use this lotus flower to exchange you for this dead thing, but you are so obsessed, so stubborn, I am afraid that my Buddha is in front of you, and you may not know it." ”
"You, you...... You little girl, get out, get out, this is not the place you should be. The abbot grabbed the little girl's shoulders and coldly pushed the little girl away, but the little girl was not frightened, obediently went to the door, turned around and said, "Abbot, you were only afraid of having a dream last night." ”
"Dreams?" The abbot didn't understand, "Dream, what dream?" ”
"The night is long and dreamy, but I am afraid that you will forget what you should remember, but you should forget all remember, the Buddha told you, today is the birthday of the Bodhisattva, there is a Bodhisattva outside your mountain gate, open the door to see him, but you turn a blind eye."
After such a reminder, the abbot stared at the little yellow-haired girl in horror, and looked at it, as if he remembered something.
"However, I opened the door today and did not see the Bodhisattva."
"Hey, who is the one who cries hunger and cold in the morning, but who is not a bodhisattva? I said, even if the Bodhisattva is in front of you, you turn a blind eye, and now, do you understand what I mean? ”
"This ......" the old monk stammered.
"Well, I won't talk to you about this, but I want to talk to you about the rest." She said, "Do you see a bodhisattva now?" ”
