Chapter 3: The Secret of the Blood Buddha
This story is pure fiction
When Dugu Xin brought people to Xuanling Temple to slaughter the temple and burn down the temple, he was catching up with the clear sky to go up the mountain to cut wood, so he escaped.
That year, he had been practicing Buddhism in the monastery for 12 years. I don't know if the clear space is the reincarnation of the Heavenly Evil Star or the way of the world, and the clear space doesn't think about it so much.
After burying the master and his brothers, he took the blood-stained mutton fat jade Buddha left by the master and walked to the mountain.
He couldn't go to the city, he was afraid that he hadn't been in the city; Second, the master did not let him enter the city and let him go to the mountains. He still listens to his master. Then he went out into the mountains.
Where to go to the mountains? Let's find a cave and settle down. There are many caves in the mountain, so you can take shelter from the wind and rain for a while, and then make plans.
Jingkong searched for a cave in the mountains, and met a few woodcutters, who had been chopping wood before, and these woodcutters had also donated incense money in Xuanling Temple. Jingkong told a few woodcutters about the situation in Xuanling Temple. The woodcutters said to Jingkong: "I don't know what evil the emperor has fallen into, he must destroy Buddhism and Taoism, Master Jingkong, your master is right, you can't go to the city, it's better to find a cave to hide." Otherwise, if you are caught by the government, you will be killed. You just find a cave near our village, so that there is still a care. You have to be vulgar too, keep your hair up, otherwise you will be arrested and killed by the government if you are discovered. The clear space is very grateful to several woodcutters and said: "Thank you donors, the donors for your kindness, the clear space will be repaid in the future." I'm going to go find the cave. ”
Leaving a few woodcutters, the clear space continued to move towards the mountain, and found a cave in the middle of the mountain, the cave is not very big, but enough to clear the space for a person to live, the hole is not very big, and the space in the cave is relatively large, so that you can avoid some wind and rain. In this way, Jingkong stayed in this cave, went out to collect some dry firewood, made a fire, and had two steamed buns in his arms that he had brought when chopping firewood that he had not eaten, so he found a branch, skewered the steamed buns and roasted them. Then he got some hay and spread it on the ground to make a bed.
Lying on the bed, thinking about what happened today, I couldn't calm down in my heart, took out the jade Buddha given by the master, and saw that it was still stained with the blood of the master, and sadness surged in my heart.
Since he was a child, the master has been very fond of the clear space, and has always taken special care of the clear space, and the clear space is also very smart, and the understanding of practicing Buddhism is also very high. Among the teachers and brothers, the clear space can also endure special hardships. Some of the chores in the temple are rushed to do the clearance, and the brothers and sisters also like the clearance.
Suddenly, he and his brothers left him like this, and Jingkong's sad mood couldn't be calmed for a long time, thinking about it, Jingkong fell asleep, and he also dreamed. The jade Buddha given by the master in the dream suddenly became very large, and then two rows of big red characters appeared on both sides of the jade Buddha, "Compare with the sun, and see each other in the eight parts", and then the clear space woke up, looking at the fire that had not been extinguished, and added some firewood to the clear space. I thought that the Buddha beads had appeared, what does this mean? Pure Hollow has been thinking about this in his heart.
Then he took out the Jade Buddha and looked at it, but he didn't see any mystery.
At this time, the sky was also dawning, and the clear space stretched his waist, then stood up and sorted out his clothes, ready to go to the nearby village to make some friends, and then inquire about the affairs of the city.
When he was ready, he left the cave and went down the mountain.
After walking for a long time, I came to a village called Taiwu, most of the village names in the village are surnamed Wu, and as soon as I entered the village, I met a woodcutter who met on the road yesterday.
When the woodcutter saw the clear space, he asked, "Master clear space, have you found the cave where you rest?" ”
The clear space returned to the woodcutter: "Donor, the poor monk has found a cave to rest in, but the temple has been burned down, and there are no items on his body. ”
After listening to this, the woodcutter said that Jingkong had come to turn into a fate, and then said to Jingkong: "Master Jingkong, go, I will take you to my house, and my family still has some clothes and dry food that can be suitable for you to wear." You have to change this monk's robe, otherwise the people in the government will see you and arrest you and kill you!" ”
When the woodcutter heard that what the woodcutter said made sense, he followed the woodcutter to the house, and the woodcutter asked his daughter-in-law to prepare some dry food and some change of clothes for the woodcutter.
The woodcutter said to the clear space: "Master clear space, you have this dry food with you, and then you keep these changes of clothes, they are all washed." He handed the dry food and clothes to the empty space.
Jingkong took the burden given by the woodcutter and returned to the cave. Then I roasted some dry food and ate it.
The entrance to the cave faces south, and the sun shines into the cave in the afternoon, which is quite warm.
At this time, Jingkong thought about the dream of last night, and then took out a piece of jade Buddha with the blood of his master and shone it on the sunlight shining in, and found that there was a small hole on the top of the head of this jade Buddha, and the sunlight was projected on the wall of the cave through the small hole.
Suddenly, the light projected on the wall was actually a gossip map, the light map was not very large, but it clearly showed that it was a gossip map.
