Chapter Seventy-One: The Green Owner
Renshoji Temple, abbot's room.
Qingwei Zhenren sat in the position of the lord of the day, with Yanagi Somasa on the left and Qingfang on the right.
Although kneeling and sitting is an ancient tradition in the Central Plains, since there are chairs, the Central Plains people are not used to kneeling.
Yanagi Sect is in a standard kneeling posture, serious and upright, and can stand up with a sword at any time.
Because of his flat feet, the owner of the green square can only sit on a basket and read the scriptures softly in the Japanese language.
Shen Yuqing, the secretary of Qingwei Zhenren, brought three cups of hot tea in.
"This is the green tea I brought from the Central Plains, you two might as well try it." Qingwei is really humane.
Yanagi Zongzheng picked up the teacup, took a sip, and after a moment of careful reflection, said, "This is ...... Freshly picked new tea? ”
Qingwei Zhenren: "Before the first crop of this year, it was picked in time for the dew buds at night. ”
The so-called pre-Ming is the fresh tea picked before the Qingming Festival, and the pre-rain tea is the tea picked before the rain. Generally speaking, the Ming ???????????????? harvested the day before Qingming The first tea is of the best quality, too early to be harvested too tender, too late to be too old. This year's Qingming Festival is February 14, this Ming Qian tea should be picked on February 13, and today is February 15, which means that Daomen will transport the Ming Qian tea in Jiangzhou to Fenglinzhou within three days.
Looking at one thing from two aspects, it can be seen as the Qingwei real person greedy for enjoyment, and why not the Qingwei real person shows the powerful strength of the Daomen through these trivial things?
Fighting a war is inseparable from money, the most intuitive embodiment is logistics, Daomen can send the Ming Qian tea just picked on February 13 to Fenglinzhou, so will there be a shortage of other materials?
With such a huge capacity, Daomen is actually not much different from fighting on the mainland
Yanagi Zongzheng understood the mystery of this for the first time, his expression changed slightly, and he sighed: "Thanks to Li Zhenren's blessing, I can actually drink fresh Mingqian." Although the maritime merchants who come and go will also sell Ming Qian tea, but the fastest transportation from Jiangzhou to Fenglinzhou is more than a month later, even if it is sealed in the jar, it is still inevitable to lose the freshness. ”
Qingwei Zhenren smiled: "If Shi Zhouzhai likes it, I can give Shi Zhouzhai a few catties." ”
"Then I'll be disrespectful." Yanagi Zongzheng leaned forward slightly.
The owner of the Qingfang did not move the teacup, stopped chanting, and looked at Qingwei Zhenren.
He was neither a public nor a martial artist, and he didn't care about any of this.
Qingwei Zhenren said: "The master said a lot of questions about Fenglin Continent before, all of which are to the point, and in fact, this is indeed what the Daomen is concerned about. In the opinion of the master, these things are independent? Or is there a relatively uniform root? ”
The owner of the green square clasped his hands together: "On the surface, these things are unrelated, but in fact, as the real person said, they are actually different manifestations of the same problem in different aspects. ”
Qingwei Zhenren asked, "What is the root cause of this?" ”
The owner of Qingfang said succinctly: "Furong Mountain." ”
Qingwei Zhenren: "I have heard of Furong Mountain, this is the name of the Central Plains, in the context of Fenglinzhou it means immortality, I heard that many people regard it as a holy mountain, and even women are not allowed to climb the mountain, is there such a thing?" Yagyu said: "There is indeed such a rule, it is not that women are not allowed to climb the mountain, but that women are not allowed to climb the peak. ”
Qingwei Zhenren asked, "Has Shi Zhouzhai been to Furong Mountain?" ”
Yagyu said, "I've been there three times. The first time I climbed to the summit of Mount Hibiscus, I didn't even reach the crown, and I went with my late father. The second time I went, I was in the prime of life, and I had a little success in kendo, so I went there to understand kendo. As for the last time I climbed to the top of Hibiscus Mountain, it was ten years ago, and I just enjoyed the scenery. The summit of Mount Furong can be described as two heavens of ice and fire, although it is covered with snow all year round, I can clearly feel the strong fire below. And according to historical records, Furong Mountain is a volcano, which has erupted flame magma many times, causing great harm each time, changing the landform, turning the sea into land, which can be described as a vicissitudes of life, ashes like snow, permeating half of Fenglin Continent,"
Qingwei Zhenren's face was calm: "Spread over half of Fenglin Continent, that is the land of several mansions in the Central Plains, it is just a volcano, and its power is indeed a bit exaggerated." ”
Qingwei Zhenren looked at the Qingfang owner again: "Master, the fire of Furong Mountain and the various differences between Fenglin Continent are ???????????????? Does the elephant matter? ”
The owner of the Qingfang nodded: "It's really related." ”
Qingwei Zhenren asked, "How much does the master know about this?" ”
The owner of the Qingfang said: "When I was a monk, I had a junior disciple named An Zhen. At that time, we were ascetic monks, and we went to Kumano to practice together, and we stayed overnight at a house with a hostess named Kiyohime. I thought it was just a passerby from the end of the world who had only seen one time in this life, but I didn't expect Qing Ji to fall in love with my junior brother An Zhen that night, and tried all kinds of ways to let An Zhen stay. ”
But An Zhen left first on the pretext that she would go to Kumano first and would definitely come back to visit Kiyohime later, leaving Kiyohime to wait. Gradually, Qingji, who couldn't wait for her lover's return, knew that she had been deceived, so she didn't even wear shoes, and chased An Zhen frantically day and night, tasting all the hardships along the way, and when she finally caught up with An Zhen on the way to Daocheng Temple, she no longer looked like a human being, and a ghost was not like a ghost. ”
Seeing that the lie was about to be exposed, Anzhen hurriedly begged Kumano God to trap Kiyohime, while she quickly crossed the Hidaka River, fled to Dosei Temple to ask me for help, and hid in the temple's big bell. When Kiyohime chased after him, there was no boat on the side of the Hidaka River, but she still resolutely jumped into the river, and as a result, she turned into an adult and continued to chase ashore. ”
Qing Ji, who has become a monster, is resentful of An Zhen, and when she enters the Daocheng Temple, she knows that An Zhen is hiding behind the big bell, so she wraps her snake body around the big bell, but the bell is strong and can't enter. In the end, although Qing Ji had nothing to do, she was unwilling to give up, so she spontaneously combusted and burned the monks An Zhen in Zhong into black charcoal. ”

Qingwei Zhenren listened to this story calmly, and did not show the slightest impatience, but said: "It is a common thing for living people to become monsters because of resentment, obsession, curses, etc., it is a common thing in Fenglin Continent, what is the intention of the master to tell me this story?" ”
The owner continued: "Because of this incident, I was very shaken, so I read a lot of classics, and personally visited many places, trying to find out the root of this humanized demon, and finally I came to a conclusion, which seems to be related to the power of incense. Real people should know that the divine power is refined from the incense wishing power, or the divine power is the more pure incense wishing power without any impurities, so where does the incense wishing power come from? It comes from the heart of a person, whether it is an ordinary person or a high-ranking immortal, as long as he truly recognizes, believes, and is attached to someone or something, he can produce incense wishing power. Divine power is almost omnipotent, logically speaking, there is no essential difference between incense power and divine power, what divine power can do, incense wish power can also do. ”
"So I came to the conclusion that the reason why so many people turn from humans to demons is because they have lost the object of their faith, they don't believe in the Buddha, they don't believe in the gods, and the incense power is not collected, but remains in their bodies. A high monk in the Central Plains once said: 'When you come out of the water, you will show the water, and you will be suspicious of the ghosts.' 'The heart is bright, and there is no room for dark ghosts, but if the heart is full of resentment and attachment, it is inevitable that they will be affected by all kinds of obsessions and resentments, and finally the incense and wish power in their bodies will be guided by obsession and resentment, turning them into a different kind of divine power, turning them into monsters. ”
"I thought that this was the answer, and the solution to the problem was nothing more than to preach the Dharma, and as long as you believe in the Buddha, you will not become a monster. After all, the Buddhist gate of Fenglinzhou is extremely large, such as ???????????????? Like the feudal town, you can marry a wife and have children, and the position of the Dharma master has changed from the inheritance of master and apprentice to the inheritance of father and son, and finally becomes degenerate, and the monk who has six roots is not pure, not only does not do production, but also does not practice, annexes the fields, and expropriates violently. It is inevitable that the Dharma will be lost, and it is reasonable for the people at the bottom not to believe in the Dharma. ”
Qingwei is truly humane: "The master just said a 'originally thought', it seems that the master later found other answers." ”
The Qingfang owner nodded slightly and said: "It wasn't until I myself turned into a monster Qingfang owner that I found out that the reason why I became a monster has nothing to do with whether I have pious beliefs, even if it is a person who is dedicated to Buddha, he will also become a monster, that is, a Buddha demon like me." ”
"I left the temple and turned into a void monk and traveled all over the world, traveled to every place in Fenglin Continent, and finally climbed to the peak of Furong Mountain, where I felt a very familiar atmosphere."
"I have vaguely felt this aura in my own body, and I have seen it in other people, but it is not strong. What really memorized me and made it unforgettable for me was Kiyohime. ”
The owner of the green house finally explained why he wanted to tell the story about Kiyohime in the first place.
Qingwei Zhenren is such a smart person, he doesn't need to be reminded by the owner of the Qingfang, and he has already connected the two stories: "Shi Zhouzhai said before that Furong Mountain has erupted into fire several times, and each time it is earth-shattering, and the ashes can fill half of Fenglin Continent, and the key to this is the flames. Master Fang Cai also told the story about Qing Ji, who eventually spontaneously ignited and created a flame, burning the monk An Zhen into charcoal, and the key to this is also the flame. The two can indeed be linked, but does the master have the evidence to prove this speculation? ”
The Qingfang owner said: "Before Jiazi, the Fenglinzhou Daofu had secretly investigated this matter and invited a cardinal from the Western Holy Court to participate in it, and I, as a disciple of the Fenglinzhou Buddhism who has been investigating this matter, was also fortunate to participate in it under the recommendation of Hiei Mountain. We have come to a conclusion that in the underground of Furong Mountain, what is hidden is not an ordinary flame, the Daomen calls it the Yin Fire, the Holy Court calls it the Mad Fire, and the Fenglinzhou Buddhism Gate calls it the Evil Fire, which is the flame of the evil god. ”
