Chapter 44: The Wicked Smile in Front of the Arhat's Statue

With the sound ......of the bamboo stick gently hitting the stone slab, the blind Uncle Zhu walked into the inconspicuous quaint courtyard of the provincial capital.

The little boy of Jixiangtian, who was barefoot and white, gently combed his black hair with his fingers, and asked softly, "How many days has that student entered Guiyuan Temple?"

"I didn't leave the temple for three days and three nights. Uncle Zhu replied respectfully.

Xiao Gongzi's face was like ice and snow, and he said softly: "Uncle Zhu is right, this student is not an ordinary person, the upper triple Mu Qing Gu can be silently dissolved by him, it is because I am careless, but let a master die under the door, and it is not convenient to explain to Yungui Sect after rì." ”

Uncle Zhu said: "Childe doesn't need to worry, everyone under the door contributes to Childe, and he still has no regrets even if he dies." ”

"Guiyuan Temple still refuses to agree to lend us a robe?"

"Yes, Master Bin Ku has practiced meditation for many years, but he is still stubborn. ”

"Well, it looks like I'll have to pay a visit in person. ”

Uncle Zhu hesitated and said, "There is still a persuasion from his subordinates. ”

"Please. ”

"The old master has a clear decree not to disturb the Guiyuan Temple, it seems that there is something strange in that temple. After the death of the old master immortal, Ling Zun took over the throne, but he has always paid tribute to Guiyuan Temple. If it is just to get rid of Taiwan's Lin Bo, he will make a reckless move, and his subordinates will think it is unwise. ”

"Uncle Zhu is thoughtful, I understand. The little boy put his slender hands together in front of him, and said softly: "It's just that Lin Bo's subordinates don't kill, the killing in Taiwan is too heavy, I went to Taiwan for three days, and more than 30 people were burned to death in the flower sea in Puli, such a big revenge, how can I not take revenge? ”

Uncle Zhu saw that he was persistent, and he didn't persuade much, bowed down, and then said: "I did a hexagram yesterday, although this trip did not see any danger, but it is a big obstacle to the little boy's practice, why don't the little boy let the old slave go to the Guiyuan Temple monks for a while." ”

The little boy smiled slightly, his eyes flowed, and he said softly: "I know that you are afraid of that young man named Yi Tianxing." Someone went to see him in person. Although the young man's body is extremely hot, his body is dry and warm, and he obviously doesn't know how to control it. But he doesn't know the Five Elements Dao Law, if he continues like this, he will die in a few months, why should you and I worry?"

Uncle Zhu frowned and said no more.

The little boy gently lifted his heels, and his feet slid on the thick blanket: "It's just a little wolf." ”

.................................................................................................................................

Yi Tianxing has indeed stayed in Guiyuan Temple for three days and three nights, but as for the reason, it has to start from the fact that Xiao Suzaku booed in the Guanyin Dashi clay sculpture net bottle three days ago.

"Baby, dad will take you to the toilet, although the toilet in this Guiyuan Temple is more difficult to find, but you can't run Guanyin's face to do bad things!" Yi Tianxing called the little red bird under the Bodhisattva statue, but he wondered in his heart, "You kid is strong, I haven't seen you eat, drink and Lazar, yes, this is good, I actually stained the net bottle of Guanyin." Thinking of being so arrogant and not losing face to himself, Yi Tianxing couldn't help but feel a trace of pride on his face.

Master Bin Ku watched anxiously beside him, saw his face, and then listened to what he said about the secret damage to his mountain gate, he was angry, snorted, turned to the Guanyin statue and bowed, and bowed to the little red bird that cooed very strangely, and then shook his right arm, and the monk's robe on his arm was rolled.

The monk's robe rolled up, and the wide cuffs spun rapidly.

"Sleeve Qiankun, collect!"

Master Bin Ku Zhenyuan is in a hurry, the open sleeves of the robe are round and flowing, and the cuffs hiss, like a wind tunnel to absorb the air inward!

In an instant, the wind in the side hall of Guiyuan Temple was loud, the incense candles were shaking, and the little Suzaku standing on the mouth of the net bottle did not stand firmly, and the air around him was all sucked into the sleeve of Master Bin Ku. Master Bin Ku held the cuffs with his left hand, watching the little Suzaku keep arching his robe sleeves, and the monk's sleeves were arched out of a small circle from time to time, and his face was guarded.

Yi Tianxing hurriedly said: "Master, be careful!"

Master Bin Ku gave a salute to Yi Tianxing with one hand, replied to the appearance of a worldly master, and said gently: "Don't worry, the little donor, the old man has his own measure." ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, there was a bang, and Bin Ku's wide monk's sleeves burned violently.

......

......

Master Bin Ku's face was depressed, and the monk's sleeve on his right arm was all burned to ashes, and he was bare and bare. Yi Tianxing hugged the little red bird that was cooing, looked at him with an innocent face, and softly flattered: "Children are not sensible, and it is not important to have a 'mouth'." ”

Bin coughed bitterly twice, went to the meditation room to change into a robe, and asked Yi Tianxing and the little ancestor who could breathe fire to sit down in the Huxin Pavilion in the back garden.

Yi Tianxing looked at the surrounding scenery and said with a smile: "It collapsed a few days ago, and it was repaired so quickly, Guiyuan Temple is really a place to make a fortune." ”

Bin had a solemn face, didn't answer his jokes, and lowered his voice and said, "Master Yi, do you know what this fiery bird in your arms is?"

Yi Tianxing looked confused.

Bin sighed bitterly: "I don't know where you got it from, but you are born with a lot of fire xìng true yuan, but it is similar to this divine thing." ”

"Fetish?" Yi Tianxing's eyes widened.

"Not bad. Master Bin Ku looked at the scarlet bird in his palm and said quietly: "This artifact has not appeared in the world for thousands of years, and I can't imagine that it will obediently lie in your palm." ”

Yi Tianxing frowned and said, "I'm here...... Phew, since it's a fetish, don't do it, what the hell is it?"

"It's Suzaku. Master Bin Ku said mysteriously, but there was still a trace of puzzlement on his face, "It's just that the sound of the classic Vermilion Bird should be clear and clear throughout the sky, why is this one cooing like a chicken?"

Yi Tianxing smiled.

.............................................................................................

In the traditionalization of the country, the Vermilion Bird is one of the four elephant mythical beasts, and it is the southern spirit animal. The bird is made vermilion, like a fairy pheasant, colorful and colorful feathers, raw xìng high and clean do not like yù things, non-still springs do not drink, non-cold branches do not perch. In the 28th Nakshatra of the Starry Heaven, the Vermilion Bird is the general vein of the seven southern stars (Jing, Ghost, Liu, Xing, Zhang, Wing, and Zhen).

Yi Tianxing is well-read, and naturally knows the origin of the Vermilion Bird, but this kind of divine object that only exists in the classics, this kind of existence is just a legend, is it a little red thing that is well-behaved and lovely to stay in the palm of his hand at this moment?

Gently stroking the red feathers on the top of the little red bird in his palm, Yi Tianxing thought for a long time, but it was still difficult to accept this fact, and said: "The Vermilion Bird in the book looks like a golden chicken, but it is too far from the appearance of my son. ”

Bin listened to him stubbornly call the divine beast Suzaku his son, and couldn't help but laugh, carefully took the Suzaku from his hand, rested it on the tea tray on the stone table, and exclaimed: "Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha, it really deserves to be a divine beast, this is still a nascent state, so he easily used the Heavenly Xuan Fire to break my ten years of cultivation." ”

Yi Tianxing was cunning, and when he saw that this bitter monk showed an expression that he was about to chant "two sun ...... inside and outside the plane", he knew what he was thinking, and quickly put the little red bird back into his aluminum lunch box.

Master Bin Ku was shocked and said: "Master Yi Shi, what are you going to do? Such a holy relic must not be placed among the people at will, it will disturb the flow of true qi between heaven and earth...... Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Yi Tianxing waving his hand: "Let me ask you, this little red bird...... Okay, let's make me think it's a Suzaku, who gave birth to it and who raised it? If you don't have an answer that convinces me, of course I'll have to continue to raise him and teach him, and train him to be a progressive Suzaku who loves xx, loves xx, has xx, and has xx, right?"

He didn't wait for Master Bin Ku to answer, and said, "Don't mention anything about all beings in the world. When you recognize the real body of this bird, I know what your old monk is thinking, I told you clearly, I will not give my son to others, and you will die of this heart. ”

Master Bin Ku smiled bitterly and said: "But such a divine object, how can the donor feed it? It is still safer to put it in our temple, and it is also convenient for the divine beast to absorb the aura of heaven and earth and grow up and transform into shape." ”

"There are no doors, and I nailed you the windows. I raised it so hard a few days ago, I almost didn't turn the provincial university into a big sauna, why didn't I see you come to help? Yi Tianxing pretended to be indignant and said.

Master Bin Ku thought for a while, and made a detour to attack: "The high fever on the donor's body has not faded, and now it seems that it is naturally the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast that absorbs the fire element inside the donor's body, and then disturbs the external fire." If you don't want to separate the donor from the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast, I'm afraid that this high fever will still be a trivial matter, and it will be a ......little later."

Yi Tianxing was waiting for him. He pretended to look up at the blue sky outside the pavilion, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he sighed and said: "Buddhism is merciful, I want the Buddha to feed eagles with his body, why don't I feed the birds with fire?"

Master Bin Ku heard that the young man was laughing naughtily, and he couldn't help but laugh and said, "What does the donor mean?"

"Trouble the master carefully teach the Buddha Sect jīng righteousness to the kid, and I will let my Suzaku son practice well, so that everyone will be happy?" Yi Tianxing said with a salivating face.

Bin Ku heard the taste, thinking that your kid originally wanted to learn his own convenient door spell around the bend, but thinking that the matter of Suzaku was really important, he couldn't help but hesitate - he just wanted to keep this young man in the temple to make the ancestor happy after the mountain, so that he could cope with the three-day act of asking for things, and the convenient door practice method would never dare to be passed on to outsiders. But after seeing Suzaku today, Monk Bin Ku had a good impression of this young man for no reason. His idea was very simple: the Vermilion Bird is a sacred relic of Buddhism, and he can let the holy relic choose its day and night as a companion, and this young man's heart wants to be great--so he was silent for a long time and then said: "The donor can stay in the temple to practice the Fa." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "Thank you." ”

"But I advise the little donor, the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast is fire, although it is difficult to see the prosperity of the fire element in the main body, but the Vermilion Bird cannot control its own fire before it is transformed, and you get along with it for a long time, I am afraid that it will be extremely harmful to the body. ”

.............................................................................................

Yi Tianxing really wanted to relieve his illness as soon as possible, and with a so-called divine beast in his arms, he was also worried about himself. He made up his mind, so he called the school in the office of Guiyuan Temple, and asked his classmates in the dormitory to help him take a few days off, and take advantage of these few days to hide in the mountain gate of Guiyuan Temple to practice Buddhist scriptures and Zen.

Guiyuan Temple has rare copies of the Heart Sutra, the Moraine Sand Collection, the blood book Huayan Sutra and the Lotus Sutra. Since the host of Bin Ku acquiesced in his practice, he naturally no longer hid his secrets, led him into the scripture collection in the back garden, and went to the auspicious place with him. Although Yi Tianxing is talented, after all, he is new to Buddhism, and some sentences that do not know the beginning and end of the sentence still need to be consulted by Master Bin Ku, who thoroughly understands the subtleties of the Buddhist scriptures one by one, and uses his own cultivation to conjure up various Dharma seals for comparison.

Half a rì down, Yi Tianxing accepted all the methods of controlling the true yuan, although he benefited a lot, but according to the method of the Heart Sutra to look inside himself, his heart was still faintly very doubtful and fearful, just yù spoke, Bin Ku presided over and led him into the Arhat Hall on the west side of the temple.

Yi Tianxing looked at the countless Arhat statues around him, the Arhats had different expressions, there were people sitting cross-legged, most of them were holding Buddhist scriptures, and their faces were majestic and solemn or gentle and simple or vicissitudes of life.

Slowly walked to the front of an arhat, and found that this arhat was lying on the stone looking at the sky, his eyes seemed to be closed, Yi Tianxing suddenly gave birth to a leisurely heart, full of joy.

After a pause in front of this Arhat statue, Yi Tianxing's body body qi moved, and he faintly noticed that the Arhat statue flowed with the lines of his clothes, and there seemed to be countless Dao or soft true qi running with it.

There is another Arhat who is the Venerable Tuonu, surrounded by a boy who covers the mouth of the Arhat and pulls the Arhat's ear...... The naïve and innocent state suddenly appeared, and Yi Tianxing praised with a smile: "The great monk has a childish heart to attain the Tao." ”

"It's more than that. The monk Bin Ku, who had been following him, smiled and said: "This play Maitreya refers to blinding his eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind, and not being disturbed by external evils, so that he can devote himself to the Tao." ”

Yi Tianxing stopped abruptly and stood silently in the courtyard.

......

......

On the porcelain-blue sky, a few wisps of white clouds float freely, a bell rang from Guiyuan Temple, and the breeze in the courtyard was blowing, mixed with cinnamon incense......

"Guan Yinzi has a way: but if you are deaf, you don't hear the sound, but if you are blind, you don't see the sè, and if you are blind, you don't speak. He who does not hear the voice does not hear the word, does not hear things, does not hear me; Those who don't see sè don't see the way, don't see things, don't see me; He who does not speak does not speak, does not speak, does not speak, and does not speak to me. Yi Tianxing chanted softly.

Bin bitterly knew that this young man had already learned the door, and titheed: "Amitabha, the ancestor of Taoism, Lao Tzu, once asked the Buddha. After the spread of Buddhism to the east, after the Tang Emperor burned the temple and destroyed the sect, rì gradually decayed, and returned to its essence from Taoism, so the physiological cycle is the truth. ”

Yi Tianxing seemed to be swimming out of his body at this time, with a hint of a smile on his face, his lips moved slightly, and he continued to read: "People know that there is truth and loss in falsehood, but they don't know that there is truth and loss in truth. It is true to know that there is truth and wrong, but it is true and wrong. ”

Suddenly, he laughed, like a fox who had eaten smoked meat.

The little Suzaku in her arms barely squeezed out a hairy head, stared curiously at the young man's smiling cheeks, and cooed softly.

Many years later, the statue of Maitreya in Guiyuan Temple became a place of pilgrimage for practitioners.

The reason why this is so is all because there is a young man named Yi Tianxing who once stopped in front of this Arhat statue and meditated for a long time, and then laughed a few times, entered the meditation room of Guiyuan Temple without eating or drinking, and retreated for three years.

................................................................................................

I heard that someone recommended it, where is it? I looked around at a loss, the traces of the immortals have been scattered, dare to ask which brother to leave an address for me to pay homage to?
