Chapter 3: Debate (II)
Ma Taiqing stood up and cleared his throat: "Master, I am a junior in the temple, I have not been in the temple for a long time, and I have been following the second senior brother to visit the city for free clinics, I have seen the gratitude in the eyes of the people, and I have seen the love of the people for the second senior brother, this is right, the emperor invited someone to refine the elixir of immortality, and learned the skills to make alchemy for the emperor, it is right." If it is said that the people love and don't count, the emperor is the emperor of the people, how can the emperor be wrong?"
Wang Laodao glanced at it when he heard it: "I don't know the price of firewood and rice when I don't go home, I can't go out for a free clinic, I can't go in and out, and the monks in the temple want to eat and live, and I want money for the emperor's alchemy, right? The words were not enough, and then he said: "Look at the senior brother, kill the demons for the villagers, there are always rich businessmen and squires in the township to donate money." in order to feed our Taoists. ”
The senior brother stood up, and his face flashed with joy: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Master, the disciples think that those who do the six ways do not interfere with each other, but there are often evil demons and foreign ways, disturbing my humanity, and those who practice should kill demons and eliminate demons, after all, subduing demons is defending the way, so that the world knows that since ancient times, evil has not prevailed over righteousness, and since then they have not been afraid of demons and evils, and they have done humane things." ”
The master was overjoyed and said, "Okay, my disciple's cultivation is indeed beneficial. Senior Brother Shi Li sat back. Looking back at Wang Laodao, he was still stunned, and as soon as he looked at him, Wang Laodao woke up and sat back
The second senior brother got up: "Master, what the senior brother said is very true, but I also have some other ideas. The six realms of human beings and animals live together in the world, and the other realms do not see to guess, but immortals, demons, demons, and ghosts occasionally meet in humanity, and these six realms can be clearly distinguished? If they cannot be distinguished, why are they the outer ways of evil demons, and they want to take their lives and subdue them by force? In the animal path, people often kill and eat them, we can be described as evil demons and foreign ways? Asura for Buddhist thought)
When the senior brother heard this, he was naturally displeased, "The difference between the senior brother and the elder brother, in the animal way, I don't kill the people who practice, because they have not crossed the way, in the immortal way, my generation has not crossed the path of cultivation." This is not the case with demons and monsters, and over the years, I have encountered more demons than people. Which one has gone astray? Which one is not in debt? Even if you don't do evil today, you will still do evil in a short time. Do you have to wait for human life to be in charge? Back then, I read that it was not made, and I put that little camphor essence, and the Zhang family was destroyed, do you know what it was like?"
The second senior brother still wanted to argue, but the master got up, "Immeasurable Tianzun, I am about the same, although the apprentices have made great progress, I am also very happy, but the two of you still have their own knots to untie, I am out of the customs at this time, just to untie the knots of the two of you, Taihe, Dongcheng Jia Xiucai's house, you need to go through, this person is worried about his life, Taizhen, go to the four holy mountains in the south of the city, you will know there." ”
The senior brother was anxious, and immediately said goodbye and got up, bringing his own sword made of cold iron, named Zhiqiu, extremely sharp, sharpening iron like mud, nine turns to return the soul pill, and the magic weapon of the body, pushed open the courtyard door, hurriedly went out, recited the mantra in his mouth, the two legs are fast, enough to go to the Jia family in the east city, through the streets and alleys, and soon came to the Jia family, this Jia family, Gaomen Compound, is not the richest man in the local area, but there are people in the first ten miles, the ancestors of the Jia family have been officials for generations, and when they reach Jia Xiucai's father's generation, they are still filial piety, Jia Xiucai died at the age of fourteen, and only Jia Xiucai and his mother lived, and married his wife Bai at the age of seventeen, to be twenty-five years old this year, and have no children, Mrs. Bai's appearance is not one in ten thousand, with sharp knocks, willow eyebrows, big eyes, white and tender skin, and can be broken by blowing.
Dao Ye looked up at the Jia family's house, the black aura was shrouded, and cultivators could see things that ordinary people could not see, and there was a spectrum in his heart at this glance, and there was a goblin at home. knocked on the door of the mansion with his hand, the door opened, and an elder came out, looking at the age of about fifty, the housekeeper was dressed, this person was the housekeeper of Jiafu, and he was just in time to go out, so he met Liao Daoye. It's not easy to see the old housekeeper usually.
The old housekeeper saw that it was a Taoist master and hurriedly gave a salute: "Dao Master, what do you have to do?" Liao Daoye also saluted: "Immeasurable Tianzun, poor Dao me, looking at your mansion, there is a black gas shrouded, but there is an intractable disaster?"
When the old housekeeper heard this, his originally smiling face suddenly drooped down: "Master Dao, if you make some money for eating and drinking, I can help you, but if you say that you want to subdue demons and eliminate demons, we don't need to, please take care of yourself!"
"Eh..."Before he finished speaking, the old housekeeper closed the mansion and walked away. What's going on? It turns out that this Mrs. Bai is not a mortal, is a thousand years of brocade rat into a fine, thousands of years ago because of stealing the temple lamp oil, fell into the oil lamp, just in time to catch up with the little boy to burn incense in the temple, to save it, reincarnated after a thousand years, became today's Jia Xiucai, brocade rat to repay the kindness of the year, only to have a marriage with Jia Xiucai in this life, married to the Jia family, ingenuity, embroidery, work, cooking, family finance, all of them, and treat people well, the life of the Jia family is also tasteful, come to so many monks, come to say that there is black gas in the family, said to subdue demons, come a few deaths, and then the Bai grandmother simply explained the reason to everyone, There were a few timid and scared people, but the grandmother has been at home for a few years, and there has never been a loss of people in the family, and people have died, so you know that although the grandmother is a demon, it is not harmful. So when the old housekeeper heard this, he wanted to subdue the demon again, but he ignored it.
Liao Daoye, I have been walking for so many years, and I haven't eaten such a big deflated, I used to go to the temple to invite, and Tianjin is also famous and well-known, why is this family so faceless. Scratching his head, going out, thinking about it, the master said that this empty self saved his life, there must be a reason, I saw a tea stall diagonally opposite, drank tea in the tea stall, drank all over and observed the Jia family, this housekeeper didn't know what to do when he went out, and he didn't come back until the evening, with an old doctor, who was also a fairy wind bone, and it was estimated that he was also a famous miracle doctor, and it was not good to go in, and then came out, and the old housekeeper at the door still said good things to others, "Divine doctor, divine doctor, if you don't see it well, who else still has this ability to save our son-in-law?" Think of a way again!"
The miracle doctor frowned, and he could see that he was very embarrassed: "Okay, don't embarrass me, the doctor's parents, but I really can't help it, your son's pulse is not abnormal, and I don't want to smash my own signboard!
Liao Daoye looked at it, took three steps and made two steps to come to the housekeeper, the housekeeper was embarrassed, and when he looked at him, he was impatient, "Didn't I tell you? ”
