Chapter 007: The Beginning of the Buddha Terrace
Zhu Ziping opened his eyes, followed the sound and looked at the door of the teahouse, and saw that there was also a monk standing next to the monk in the long robe, the monk was wearing a robe, tall, with a long beard fluttering, his eyes flashing like lightning, staring at Zhu Ziping: "Who are you?" Come to my Jiuhua late at night to make trouble, what a big guts! ”
Zhu Ziping sneered: "Who are you?" Brag unblushingly! "Bold, don't worship my abbot!" The robed monk said angrily and bowed to the robed monk, "Senior brother abbot, I'll arrest him." ”
The abbot nodded and said, "Senior Brother Guangrun, this kid is a little weird, you need to be careful." "Thank you for the teachings of Senior Brother Abbot." Guangrun is the second-generation disciple of Jiuhua Xizong, and he is also the third junior disciple of the abbot of Guangjing, but his long sword dances, steady and open, and bursts of sword blades rush towards Zhu Ziping. At this time, some of the monks had already gotten up and stood far away, and some people exclaimed: "Songtao swordsmanship!" ”
Songtao swordsmanship is a secret technique of Xijiuhua, created forty-five years ago, created by Pu Huan, the elder brother of the first abbot Pu Cang. Legend has it that day the dark clouds were thick, the mountain rain was coming, Pu Huan stood at the gate of the mountain, and saw the pine forest being blown by the strong wind, making a burst of waves. Pu Huan frowned, waved his long sword and danced, and later named this set of swordsmanship "Songtao Swordsmanship".
Zhu Ziping saw Guangrun's long sword stabbing at him, and swung his sunset to hit the long sword, Guangrun didn't know what was in the package, but when he saw that the monks were injured just now, he didn't dare to resist, and swung the long sword to the right, and missed a blow; The sunset swung to the right again, and the long sword struck upwards and let it go.
The monks applauded in unison: "The third uncle is clever! "This boy will definitely die...... "Everyone, you say a word to me." Songtao swordsmanship is steady and contains light spirit, steady like a pine forest, light and spiritual like the wind in the forest, the forest can block the wind, the wind can also destroy the forest, this is the feeling of the Puhuan monk back then. Guangrun soaked in Songtao swordsmanship for more than 20 years, at this time the general will rise, deep in the essence.
Zhu Ziping had no choice for a while, and he missed many times, so he could only switch from attack to defense. Although Guangrun was able to control Zhu Ziping's move, he couldn't quickly defeat his opponent, and the two couldn't hold each other, and an hour was about to pass.
Abbot Guangjing saw that the two of them had been fighting for a long time, and he couldn't help but be displeased, and snorted coldly: "I can't even take a masked man, it's really a wretch!" His left hand stretched forward, and his right hand stood up. When the monks heard the abbot's words, they couldn't help but applaud loudly: "Release the palm!" Abbot Kami! ”
The release palm was created by the abbot of Guangjing ten years ago. One day, Guangjing stands next to the release pond in front of the temple, the pond has two acres, the water depth is seven feet, the carp in the pond is frolicking and chasing, soaring in the water, the pond water is rippling and shining. Guangjing sighed: "This fish is born because of the water, but the water lives because of the fish, the fish does not live without water, and the fish does not live without water." Release Pond, Release Pond...... Was the fish released or the water released? Guangjing's left hand and fingers were like fish, his right hand turned into a palm and stood in front of his chest, a finger wind struck the pine tree by the pool, the thick pine tree at the mouth of the bowl was broken at the waist, he did not stop, his right palm circled around his chest, and when he closed back, the broken trunk stood up again. Guangjing muttered: "Release the palm, I understand......"
At this time, Guangrun couldn't fight for a long time, and the monks cheered, knowing that the abbot was going to help, and shouted at the moment: "The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it!" Swing your sword and slash at Zhu Ziping.
Zhu Ziping was retreating, stunned when he heard the words, his brain flashed, and he shouted: "Let you destroy it!" The "one-style "Heaven and Earth Spinning" Meteor Sun Gong flew out of his hand, hovering and whistling, shattering the long sword, and another spin hit Guangrun's lower abdomen.
At the same time, Zhu Ziping suddenly felt a pain in his back, a wisp of finger wind drilled into his body, the pain was bone-chilling, his body couldn't help but bow, and a strong wind led him backwards. Zhu Ziping secretly said that it was not good, he stomped his left foot and stepped into the ground a foot, the strong wind swept by, and his waist was about to bend.
"Release the palm, I will release the good!" Guangjing said coldly, "Eat another palm!" Zhu Ziping's heart moved, and the sunset had flown back into his hand. Guangjing was not surprised, ordinary masters of taking things from the air would, if he knew that this package was moved at will, wouldn't he be surprised! Zhu Ziping held the sunset, only to feel a sharp pain in his back, the wisp of cold wind seemed to penetrate the body, and sucked away the blood in the body, the whole body gradually became cold, and sighed secretly: "It seems that I am going to die here today......"
Suddenly, I heard a loud shout: "Fight!" I saw a ball of fire flying from the roof to Guangjing, and at the same time, a long rope rolled around Zhu Ziping and quickly rose towards the house.
Guangjing waved his long sleeves, the fire exploded, the smoke dispersed, Guangjing took a step back to avoid the smoke, seeing that this masked man was brave and injured more than 20 people, Guangrun's life did not know how, and he didn't know how many opponents came, but he didn't dare to chase after him, and shouted angrily: "Little thief!" Don't run away if you have the ability...... If I happen again, I will take the life of a dog! ”
Zhu Ziping was caught by the long rope, his body was loosened, and his eyes were black and he fainted. Vaguely, he felt that he was standing on top of the bamboo forest, but when the green bamboo broke, he was unstable on his feet, and he fell headlong, and his body fluttered and fell in the air. Under the bamboo forest is a river, I fell into the water only to feel a pain in my back, the cold river water poured into my chest and abdomen, extremely unbearable but unable to scream, at this moment, but there was a warm spring water gushing upward. Falling sun? I don't know how long it took, but I only heard my father's voice sigh: "Bodhi is not a tree, and there is no mirror platform, who can understand the cause and effect of good, evil, bitterness, and happiness?" ”
When Zhu Ziping struggled to open his eyes, he found himself lying on a ball of soft hay, surrounded by stone walls, and a ray of light shining in from the left side, as if he was in a cave.
"Little donor, are you awake?" The voice said. Zhu Ziping was stunned for a moment, only to recognize that the voice was not his father, and turned his head to see a person sitting cross-legged on his right side, the person was about sixty years old, dressed in a gray robe, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes.
Zhu Ziping asked, "Who are you?" "Old man Hiroze." "Hiroze? Guangrun ...... Guangjing," Zhu Ziping was taken aback, "Where am I?" "Little donor, don't be afraid, you're okay now. Last night, you were badly injured, now you get up and walk around. ”
Zhu Ziping remembered that his back was injured and his whole body was weak, but now his back did not feel pain, and he also had strength in his body, turned over and sat up, and worked for a week, and it was really fine, and asked, "It's you...... Saved me? ”
Guangze smiled but didn't answer, and pointed to Zhu Ziping's right hand: "Little donor, the package in your hand is a sunset?" Zhu Ziping opened his eyes suddenly: "You, you opened it?" But after thinking about it, my father had already painted it with leaf juice many times, and ordinary people would never recognize it, so he said, "No! ”
Guang Ze smiled, turned around and walked towards the cave: "Little donor, you come with me." Zhu Ziping followed out of the entrance of the cave, outside the cave is a three-zhang square platform, look down, under the feet of a hundred zhang can see pine and bamboo into a forest, dancing with the wind, flying springs in the distance, clouds steaming haze.
Guang Ze pointed to the distance: "Little donor, can you see the big hall on the mountainside in the distance?" That's Myoko Zenji Temple. After a pause, he added, "But, rest assured, no one will come here." ”
"What is this place?" "Welcome Buddha Terrace. In the seventh year of the Tang Dynasty, the Silla royal family, who later became the Great Wish Jizo Bodhisattva, came to West Kowloon to meditate at Myoko-ji Temple. One night in the dead of night, the golden Zen master dreamed that the golden gods flew around like birds in the mountains and forests, and the golden man said, 'If you want me to come, I will come immediately, and if you let me go, I will drift away.' After waking up from the dream, the golden Zen master found this mountain cliff according to the memory in the dream, stood here with his hands folded, prayed devoutly, and saw the golden god man flying overhead, circling five times overhead, and then flying away again. Jin Zen Master received this enlightenment, and then went to East Jiuhua Mountain to meditate and finally achieved positive results, therefore, this place is also called the Buddha Terrace.
Zhu Ziping said: "Folklore, this is also credible? "The little donor is not an outsider, and it is normal not to believe in himself. But do you know where this sunset came from? Seeing Zhu Ziping shaking his head, he continued, "The Book of the Old Tang Dynasty records that in the fifth year of Tang Kaiyuan, there was a thunderous sound in the sky, and a moon-sized fireball flew eastward. This light fell on the house of a man surnamed Lee in Silla Kingdom, and the fire filled the sky with an instant, and it was extinguished three days later. There was a cave the size of a bowl on the ground, steaming hot, and no one dared to approach it. After another month, the Li family dug up a few zhang and got a round piece of iron, which was black in color and shimmering, but it was several times heavier than ordinary iron. The Li family did not dare to keep it privately, and dedicated the meteorite to the royal family, this year Jin Qiaojue was twenty-two years old, he ordered the craftsman to carefully build it, and two years later made a gong, which is the meteoric sun.
After the Meteoric Yang Gong was made, Jin Qiaojue took this Gong to China and came to this West Jiuhua Mountain several times. After that, the sunset was nowhere to be found. But there is a saying in my Jiuhua, 'When the sun is gone, who will keep a dream?' The nine-colored lotus opens, and the green bamboo and red maple are opened. Zhu Ziping said: "Once the sun is gone, who will keep a dream...... The nine-colored lotus opens, and the green bamboo and danfeng ...... What does that mean? ”
"At first, we didn't know what it meant, until twenty-one years ago, on the second day of the winter month, at noon that day, the main hall of the Jizo palace of Myoko Zenji Temple suddenly shook. Later, there are disciples of the temple to report, there is a golden light under the mountain straight to the sky, should be the direction of the valley of the dream river, when we rushed, but saw a person holding a thing in his arms, very similar to the sunset described in the scriptures, that person saw us coming, did not answer, quickly fled into the bamboo forest.
Naturally, we refused to give up and chased after him, and finally the man fled into the village outside the back mountain. We asked him to hand over the sunset, and the man didn't answer and started to kill four people from our sect in a row, but after all, we were all of us, and we fought in a rage, killing three people in his family, and the man turned back into the house, and fled from the back door with the infant child in his arms, injuring many people in my sect along the way, and finally escaped in Luzhou. ”
When Zhu Ziping heard this, he gritted his steel teeth and said hatefully: "Why do you have to persecute my father? ”
