Chapter 228: The Old Monk of Yin

In the high-speed toll service area, when the five people were eating, Zhang Yuanshan smiled and said, "Li Bing, now you can always tell me where we are going." ”

Li Bing said slyly: "Brother Zhang, don't worry, let everyone guess first, and I'll give you some hints." ”

Li Bing first told Zhang Yuanshan and the yin and yang gentleman Liu Sancai that they had left their souls and possessed the corpse last night, and the two fought in Fan Zhengping's house, and finally Liu Sancai committed evil and killed himself, which made the other three people tremble and stunned.

Li Bing said with a smile: "It seems that our judgment of that Sancai did not take the wrong road at all, but why did the word 'person' finally come to the ghost city of Fengdu to be cracked, have you ever thought about it." ”

Zhao Wan'er said thoughtfully: "Li Bing, you said that when you came to the ghost city of Fengdu, you finally understood the word 'person', then we will next understand the word 'earth', so to speak, the ghost city Fengdu is not where the word 'earth' is that we guessed before, this is strange, when we arrived at the ghost city, it turned out to be 'people'." ”

Shi Liya's heart moved, thinking of her previous appearance of people and ghosts, and said with deep feelings: "I understand a little, the so-called ghost city is just a scenic spot built by people based on folklore, and it is said that Fengdu is the place where the yang world and the underworld meet, that is, it implies that although yin and yang are separated and people and ghosts have different paths, in fact, ghosts can be said to do not exist, and there will be ghosts in the human heart There will be ghosts in this world." ”

Except for Zhao Wan'er, who is not deeply involved in the world, she can hear the mountain fog cover, and several other people are deeply touched, and they can't help but admire Shi Liya's opinion.

Li Bing praised a few words, and asked Shi Liya with a smile: "Sister Shi, you are a student of history, and you have traveled to many places, have you ever thought that Fan Zhengping, who came back from the dead, described to me and Brother Zhang who the old monk was in the underworld after his death." ”

Zhao Wan'er interjected dissatisfiedly: "Li Bing, you are too underestimating people, we should all know this, that old monk should be the Dizang Bodhisattva." ”

Li Bing laughed dryly and said, "Wan'er, I'm a dog who looks down on people, don't be like me, how did you know that it would be the Jizo Bodhisattva." ”

Zhao Wan'er snorted and said: "Those who have entered the temple and sincerely worshiped the Buddha know that the Buddha will not go to hell, it is said that the Bodhisattva has already proved the Buddha's fruit, but he has mercy on all beings in the world, and voluntarily proposed to the Buddha that he will not become a Buddha, only for the Bodhisattva, and go to take charge of the underworld to surpass the dead." ”

"The Buddha praised it greatly, and he conferred the title of the Bodhisattva of the Netherworld, in charge of the Yin Division, and the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is the purification of all sentient beings, and is great compassion; The two Bodhisattvas and the two Bodhisattvas Manjushri and Puxian are the four great Bodhisattvas under the Buddha's seat. ”

"The name of Jizo Bodhisattva means 'patience and immobility like the earth, meditation is as deep as a secret treasure', and his grand wish is 'I don't go to hell, who goes to hell,', therefore, there are basically couplets on both sides of the Buddha statue for Jizo Bodhisattva in the Buddhist temple, 'Hell is not empty, and I vow not to become a Buddha; However, according to the Buddhist point of view, it is impossible for all sentient beings in the world to cut off 'greed, hatred, ignorance, slowness, and doubt', so that is, the Jizo Bodhisattva gave up the opportunity to become a Buddha forever in order to surpass the dead soul in the hell, so it is a great wish to say that the Jizo Bodhisattva. ”

The other four people were greatly admired, Li Bing couldn't help but smile and nodded, he asked Zhao Wan'er with a smile: "Wan'er, what you said is right, in the entire Netherworld, only the Dizang Bodhisattva is a Western Buddhism, and only he can emit Buddha light, but why don't I continue to stay in Fengdu, but go to a place that you still haven't guessed now, do you understand the reason?" ”

Zhang Yuanshan also said happily: "I am a Taoist priest, although I am a Buddhist Taoist, but I really don't understand so many things about Buddhism, Sister Shi, since Li Bing asked you a question, it is estimated that you should know the mysteries, you can tell us quickly." ”

Shi Liya smiled slightly: "I guess Li Bing has received the revelation of the Dizo Bodhisattva, so he knows where our next stop is, I think that Li Bing will drive us to Jiuhua Mountain in Anhui, where is the cultivation ground of the Jizo Bodhisattva among the four great bodhisattvas." ”

Zhao Wan'er asked puzzledly: "Sister Shi, when we visited Fengdu, didn't we also have a Buddha statue of Jizo Bodhisattva, why did we have to get Jiuhua Mountain." ”

Shi Liya took Zhao Wan'er's hand and said with a smile: "Sister Wan'er, you don't know this, I also traveled to Jiuhua Mountain that year to know, in the Tang Dynasty, now North Korea, then called Silla Kingdom, there was a prince Jin Qiaojue monk practice, and later he crossed the sea by boat, came to China to seek Buddhism, when he came to Anhui, saw Jiuhua Mountain peaks and peaks, is a good place to cultivate, so he chose a place to live in the mountains, and devoted himself to practice. ”

"Later, when Jin Qiaojue passed away, he instructed his disciples to bury him in a jar, which was opened three years later, and three years later, after his disciples opened the jar, they were surprised to see that Jin Qiaojue's body was not rotten, and the bone joints could still move, and the sound of golden locks was also emitted, this phenomenon was exactly the same as the situation recorded in the Buddhist scriptures when the Jizo Bodhisattva passed away, so the people in the Buddhist sect thought that Jin Qiaojue was an incarnation of the Jizo Bodhisattva."

"Buddhist believers in Jiuhua Mountain's Shenguang Ridge, for Jin Qiaojue to build a real body treasure book, to support Jin Qiaojue's body, so it is also called the body tower, therefore, Jiuhua Mountain is considered to be the practice of the Bodhisattva of the Bodhisattva, because Jin Qiaojue's surname is Jin, so the world calls the Bodhisattva of Jiuhua Mountain the Bodhisattva of the Golden Treasure."

Zhao Wan'er asked puzzledly: "Sister Shi, that Fan Zhengping just said that the old monk was covered with Buddha light, although he was tall, he was skinny, and he was riding a unicorn beast, and finally turned into a white dog. ”

Shi Liya said respectfully: "That's right, maybe the image of Jizo Bodhisattva in the world, only Jiuhua Mountain Jin Jizang is tall and skinny, this is because Jin Dizang has been a penance all his life, and that Di Ting is the mount of Di Zang Bodhisattva, Di Ting is often prostrate under the scriptures of Ji Zang Bodhisattva, it is a psychic beast, with the divine power to protect the master, drive away evil and avoid evil, and distinguish between right and wrong; It also has the spiritual signs of knowing the world, opening up the financial road, and showing auspicious luck. ”

""Journey to the West" also recorded Di Ting, saying that it is the real and false Monkey King, when the gods and Buddhas of the heavens can not distinguish their true and false, only the Di Ting and the Buddha who 'sit on the ground and listen to 800 and listen to 3,000 with lying ears' can identify the real and false Monkey King."

"At that time, Jin Qiaojue saw through the red dust, crossed the sea with a white dog to China, cut his hair and became a monk, the white dog accompanied Jin Qiaojue all the way to the bumps, Zhuo Xi Jiuhua, in the 75 years of common penance, the white dog and Jin Qiaojue accompanied each other day and night, making it vicious everywhere, until Jin Qiaojue sat down, and the white dog died with Jin Qiaojue at the same time."
