Chapter 41 The Old Monkey's Heart Is Made of Stone

Naha's Buddha country is not actually called that.

His original name was Goku's Buddha Kingdom.

When Master Xuanzang saw Yun Chu lying at the foot of the statue of the Son of the Earth on the way back, Master Xuanzang decisively left the old monkey of Shiguo and began to prepare to establish a Buddha country in the Western Regions.

Yun Chu is twenty-four years old this year, so it took twenty-four years for this Buddha country to be built.

This was supposed to be the glory of the old monkey, but unfortunately, as his body weakened and he grew old, after the Dharma was refined, he gave this Buddha country to Naha five years ago.

The old monkey is a brutal person, which Yun Chu knows very well, he is not only Wukong in Xuanzang's eyes, but also a wild and untamable villain in the Western Regions.

He is the most powerful horse thief in the Western Regions, he is a great nobleman in the Shi Kingdom second only to the king, he is the most famous slave trader in the Western Regions, and at the same time, he is also a Buddhist fanatic who escorted Xuanzang to Tianzhu to complete the important task of learning scriptures.

Yun Chu never believed that the old monkey would have such a deep emotional bond with him as a Tang person.

At present, the friendship between him and the old monkey was cultivated little by little, when the old monkey saw Yun Chu for the first time, if there was no entrustment from Master Xuanzang, Yun Chu might really be just a slave who could go to Shiguo to participate in the selection of the war cage and earn wealth for him in his eyes.

This is the so-called impermanence of the world.

Yun Chu just started to know the Wukong, named Old Sheepskin, after getting acquainted with his nickname is called Old Monkey, and after becoming a family, I knew that his name was Shi Pantuo, until he lived in Chang'an, he didn't know that his Dharma name was called - Wukong!

It is the great disciple of Master Xuanzang!

In Chang'an, the old monkey is an eccentric monk who lives in seclusion and occasionally follows his junior brother, Master Peeji, to the fireworks field to listen to tunes.

In the Western Regions...... He is the devil incarnate.

"Where's the monkey?"

Yun Chu asked Naha, who was reluctant to leave in his arms.

"Master Monkey is in retreat at the Great Mercy and Grace Temple."

"Humph!"

Yun Chu snorted coldly.

Naha said, "I don't lie to you, he is really in retreat at the Great Mercy and Grace Temple." ”

Yun Chu raised his palm, Naha shrunk his neck and said aggrievedly: "Master Monkey didn't let me say it, and said that if I said it, my brother wouldn't like me." ”

Yun Chu tore Naha off from his arms and put it on the ground and said, "It's already a big girl, there should be a distinction between men and women." ”

"Wow, what Master Monkey said is right, I lied to you, you don't like me anymore."

Yun Chu raised his hand to wipe away the tears on Naha's face and said, "Brother likes you as always, but today, Lao Tzu is going to peel the monkey skin of the old monkey!" ”

"Don't go!" Naha hugged Yun Chu's waist and dragged him very hard, preventing him from going to the old monkey to settle accounts.

"He's dying......" there was a trilling in Naha's voice.

Yun Chu was stunned for a moment, threw Naha on the horse, and said gently to the gentleness who came to greet him, "This is up to you." ”

With a gentle smile, he said to Yun Chu: "Naha has released 20,000 slaves as civilians, you should praise her." ”

Yun Chu said: "Is it Naha's original intention?" ”

Gently nodded and said, "I'm very sure, this is Naha's intention, and at the same time, Naha also promised to give these slaves who built the Buddha Kingdom a safe and happy life." ”

Yun Chu looked back at Naha, who was still wiping her tears immediately, raised his hand to pinch her face, and patted Naha's head again, Naha immediately stopped crying, although there were tears on her face, the smile had already come out.

The scale of the building of the Buddha Kingdom was a wonder in the Tang Dynasty, and it was nothing in Yun Chu's eyes, he had seen a lot of temples larger than the Buddha Kingdom before, and there were countless Buddha statues that were larger than the statues on the top of the mountain.

Not to mention the nine-zhang and nine-high statues, he has also seen several statues of thirty zhang high.

The jujube red horse carried Naha and the little Tibetan girl, and Yun Xian traveled along the Yongdao to the Buddha country.

Speaking of which, the architecture of the Kingdom of God not only did not have a gorgeous and grand feeling for Yun Chu, but also made him see many unreasonable places as soon as he looked at it, not to mention, he even felt a little earthy.

The ground is rammed earth, and many people are holding small hammers with long handles, shouting trumpets, and lining up to beat out the ground.

Even the ground of the polo field built by the Yun clan after pouring oil on Jinchangfang can't catch up, let alone the ground paved with huge stone bars in later generations.

The walls here are generally not high, at most one person high, which can only block the sight of others, and cannot play a protective role at all.

As for the big Buddha, Yun Chu didn't see much grandeur in the Buddha standing on it, except that he felt that there was something on the huge white jade lotus seat.

There was an empty room under the lotus seat, and the old monkey was lying in a pile of furs, his face flushed, but the corners of his eyes were blue, and he looked as if he was really going to die.

Naha came to the old monkey and held his thin hand, and said aggrievedly, "I didn't say it, my brother guessed it himself." ”

The old monkey smiled and shook his head at Naha and said, "It's none of your business, I'll be disappointed if he can't guess." ”

As he spoke, he took Naha's hand and didn't let go.

Yun Chu threw a piece of licorice into his mouth, and said while chewing, "I heard that you are dying, right?" ”

The old monkey gasped and smiled: "There is no sorrow in life, and there is no pain in death." ”

Yun Chu said angrily: "I am a doctor, a doctor whose medical skills are not bad, the doctor wants to ask the four doors in this city to specialize in Wang, even the old immortals say that my skills are very good." ”

The old monkey let go of Naha's hand and looked at Yun Chu and said, "So what? ”

Yun Chu continued: "Before I left, I specially checked your pulse, looked at your appearance, and also probed your eight veins.

In the end, I came to a conclusion that you have a long life, and you will not have to worry about dying within ten years.

Now, tell me, we've only been seen for a year, why are you so sick? ”

Under the gaze of Naha's big eyes, the old monkey slowly stood up from the pile of furs, and said as he put on his shoes, "You guessed that I wouldn't miss such a big event as the establishment of the Buddha Kingdom, right?" ”

Yun Chu sneered: "You have spent your life exhausted, and there are only two things to be proud of, one is to escort Master Xuanzang to Tianzhu, and the other is to build this Buddha country."

Not to mention that you are in good health, even if you are about to die, you will climb to the Buddha Kingdom to see your life's work.

When you entrusted the Buddha Kingdom to Naha in Chang'an, I thought that you were the reason for the improvement of Buddhism and the reason for seeing through the red dust.

Now when I think back to when Master Xuanzang said that you are stubborn and difficult to change, I should know that you have never changed at all in your life. “

The old monkey put on his shoes and stretched a big lazy waist, first smiled apologetically at Naha, and then said to Yun Chu: "When you told the story of "Journey to the West", didn't you say that I was a stone monkey who jumped out of a crack in the stone?

The heart of a stone is jade at most, to put it bluntly, it is still a stone, you expect a stone to have a heart, isn't it strange? ”

Yun Chu sighed and said: "Since you are here, don't be embarrassed by Naha, you see that this child is embarrassed, he can't eat well, he can't sleep well, and he is worried about being captured by ghosts every night." ”

The old monkey smiled and said to Naha, who couldn't accept him alive: "Naha is very well-behaved, no one can do better than Naha."

Yun Chu, now that you are back, we should have a good discussion about how to clear the resentment that hangs over the Buddha Kingdom.

Naha, the child, let go of 20,000 slaves as civilians, although it is said that some of them have been eliminated, after all, in the past 20 years, the resentment accumulated in the Buddha Kingdom is too much, and it should continue to be eliminated. ”

"You lied to me!" Naha finally reacted, crying and going to Selema for comfort.

Yun Chu sighed and said: "Eliminating grievances is actually a process of eliminating the grievances of the living, and those who die are actually dead; There was nothing left, three years ago was a distant thing for the people of the Western Regions that it was almost impossible to remember, let alone twenty years ago.

So, do you want to use the way to shake the pot to eliminate the resentment in the hearts of these living people? ”

The old monkey looked at Yun Chu with a smile and said nothing, waiting for him to continue.

Yun Chu continued: "When a Bright Buddha Kingdom is established, the first thing to do is to remove the stain on oneself.

In the past 20 years, it is the twelve horse thieves under your command who have really controlled the Buddha Kingdom, and it should be those horse thieves who really persecuted those slaves to death, right? ”

The old monkey poured himself a glass of water, took a sip and said, "Go on, talk about how to use these horse thieves to dispel the resentment that hangs over the Buddha country." ”

"Kill them!"

"Killing is naturally to kill, I'm asking you how to kill in order to make their death worthwhile."

Yun Chu sighed and said, "You have lived in Datang for so many years, why do you still use the usual method of killing?" ”

The old monkey smiled: "Since it's easy to use, why don't you keep using it?" ”

"Don't forget that you are a monk and you have to be compassionate."

The old monkey smiled: "Those people only know how to live in a muddy way, and they only do bad things and nothing good in their lives, and killing them is the greatest mercy to them."

Moreover, dying early and revitalizing early, starting a new life as soon as possible, and being an upright and good person, isn't this the original intention of my Buddha to guide people to be good?

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "Leave this matter to me." ”

The old monkey turned around, looked at the small seated Buddha in the room, put his hands together and said: "The husband is the Taoist, like a tree in the water, looking for the stream, not touching the two shores, not being taken by people, not being covered by ghosts and gods, not living by migratory streams, and not corrupting.

A person who learns the Tao is not confused by lust, is not swayed by all evils, and is diligent and inactive, I guarantee that this person will attain the Tao.

Lao Wei built thousands of floating slaughterhouses, won the Buddha country, got great light, got great wisdom, but also got great sin, great darkness.

Now the old man divides the light, the wisdom is in Naha, the offense is sinful, and the darkness is in himself, if the light and wisdom can make Naha a Buddha, then let Naha become a Buddha.

If the darkness of sin will cause the old man to fall into the hell of the nose forever, then the hell of the nose will fall forever......"

Yun Chu closed the door for the old monkey, looking down at the glorious buildings under his feet, and didn't know what to say for a while.

The old monkey's heart is a stone, it was a stone before, it is a stone now, and it will be a stone in the future.

He has never changed in his life......
