Chapter 197: Peng Qi Nanming
Speaking of Shuanglong Temple, we have to start with the former dynasty Dayong.
At that time, there was neither the Chengye River nor the Kemaoyan City;
Even Fengchao County is just a small town with earthen walls.
At that time, Shuanglong Temple had not changed its name, and its name was Charity Hall. It is said that the rich households in the county raised funds to worship, in order to enjoy the longevity of the merit tablet (the living card), there are only three mud walls and black tiles, the incense is bleak, and no one cares.
One day, suddenly a high monk passed by, saw the people of Dongyuhe holding a red sacrifice of human animals, praying for rain and peace, was very angry, took out the treasure bottle, received the river dragon, and the town was in the backyard of the charity hall, and passed down a number of Buddhism, and then drifted away.
Since that day, the backyard of the Charity Hall has been gushing inexhaustibly, flowing along the depression and becoming the Chengye River;
It also irrigated 10,000 acres of fertile land, as well as the two cities of Yan and Kemao.
The Charity Hall is grateful for the kindness of the monks of Fulong, and changed its name: Shuanglong Temple, which means not forgetting the monks' advice, and wishing that the water purification treasure bottle will be guarded from generation to generation.
In the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of Shuanglong Temple, there are still several volumes of the Donghe local chronicle "Yongshi Manuscript", which is impressively written:
- Dongyu has a river dragon, can make people rich, keep the year safe, three years old and a big league, each village and each village leads a boy and a woman to worship the gods, eat the altars at night, and use people, horses, cows and donkeys as livestock.
The few words in the history books made Mo Chuan's heart chill.
Human nature is indeed selfish.
When Ssangyong met him, although he confessed that he was guilty, he avoided the important and trivialized, only said dereliction of duty, and did not mention the Great Red Sacrifice at all, which can be described as extremely sophistry.
"Dare to ask the mage, is this Fulong monk up and down? Where did it come from? β
After listening to this, Mo Chuan sighed, and also inquired about the background of the Rising Dragon Monk's name.
"Don't hide it from fellow Daoists, the Charity Hall has been sincerely afraid when it sees the Fulong monks coming, until the monks leave, and they have not asked for their names, which also makes Shuanglong Temple regret so far."
Master Shenquan shook his head and sighed.
"It's a pity!"
Mo Chuan echoed and sighed: "The treasure bottle spirit weapon will be discarded, and the Fulong monk is really a living Buddha!" β
"Amitabha, the Fulong monk is compassionate and compassionate, and his merits are naturally special! Speaking of which, Shoushan can have Shoushan Town, it is also thanks to the good deeds of the Fulong monks, but it is a pity that ......"
Master Shenquan said, showing a little regret.
"What a pity?"
"It's a pity that Shoushan Town is about to prosper anymore."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Ssangyong is dead."
When the voice fell, Mo Chuan's eyes widened in astonishment: "Dead? β
"The monks don't say anything, Shuanglong has died violently more than ten days ago, and the dragon corpse Dragon Pill can be vaguely seen in the well. Now that the water in Chengye is dry, spring plowing is imminent, and 10,000 acres of fertile land may be destroyed. Shoushan is not a farmer, and under the cold lips and teeth, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the fate of decay. β
Master Shenquan's eyes showed a trace of sadness: "Today's poor monks are here, it is precisely for this matter, and now only Taoist friends can save tens of millions of people on both sides of the Chengye River." β
Mo Chuan's eyes flickered: "The mage's words are serious, the poor Dao is just a wandering Taoist, living between heaven and earth, saving a few people, how dare you take tens of millions of lives?" β
Master Shenquan said: "Daoyou's words are bad, and the poor monk heard that Daoyou has a skill, name: drinking water." This technique may be able to relieve the drought in Chengye! β
Mo Chuan was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes showed a look of vigilance: "Mage, this is the position of the Twin Dragons of the Poor Dao Dynasty?" β
"The responsibility of guarding the river is in Shuanglong, how dare you bother your friends? The poor monk is here to seek skill! β
Without waiting for Mo Chuan to reply, Master Shenquan said again:
"After the Fulong monk placed the water purification vase, he once said, 'Peng rises from the south and turns into a kun', that is, when he comes to Shuanglong Temple again, if the Taoist friends can continue the kindness of Shuanglong, when the Fulong monk returns, there will be good fortune."
"Of course, the art of earth evil is extremely precious, and the poor monk does not dare to force it, and is willing to seek the magic method with the "Law of No Coming and Going"! If you don't want to practice Buddhism, you have been practicing hard for 800 years, and God raises a grain of relics, and you are willing to give up the relics and seek magic, and you hope that you will agree! β
As he spoke, Master Shenquan knotted a lotus seal with both hands, and a relic, as bright as a grain of rice, floated out from his fingertips, and the light was faint, like fireflies.
Seeing this, Mo Chuan's spirit was in a trance.
Relics have always been transformed by the bones of eminent monks;
A very small number of eminent monks can turn part of their bodies into relics, such as: hair relics, claw relics, and tooth relics.
But he rarely heard of any monk who could raise a relic!
It is rumored that this is the time when the wisdom of the Buddhist Dharma of the high monk is condensed, similar to the epiphany of the Taoist gate, which can be met but not sought, which can be called infinitely useful.
"Dare to ask the Master, what does the Fulong monk mean by 'Peng rises from the south and turns into a kun'?"
Mo Chuan was shocked in his heart, but he quietly asked the proverbs left by the monk of the Rising Dragon.
Master Shenquan put away the relics and said calmly: "What the monk Fulong said, Shuanglong Temple has been enlightened for thousands of years, and it has never been broken. However, combined with some rumors, there is also a little bit of gain, but what Shuanglong Temple did, after all, it is a grasshopper watching the sky, you can't believe it, do you still want to listen? β
Mo Chuan's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "I want to hear about it." β
Master Shen Quan: "The poor monk heard that a thousand years ago, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Yuan had not been completely exhausted, and at that time, the monk was directly swallowing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Yuan to practice, so he called the name Qi Refiner. β
"However, the avenue is impermanent, I don't know why the heavens and the earth have changed suddenly, the spirit yuan has dried up, and the qi refiner has been extinct in the world since then. Taoism has clouds: do it when it is time, and hide it when it is not time. Therefore, Shuanglong Temple thought that these qi refiners might be hiding between heaven and earth, waiting for the wind and clouds. β
Master Shenquan paused, and then said:
"Zhuangzi has a saying, there is a fish in the north of the underworld, its name is Kun, Kunhua Peng bird, angry flying to the sky, migrating to the south of the underworld. The change of Kunpeng is the change of the four seasons! Darkness too! Shuanglong Temple thought that the Fulong monks should use this as a metaphor for the changes in heaven and earth. [Note 1]
Mo Chuan's heart shook when he heard this, and his heart swayed.
Directly swallowing the spiritual element cultivation, how strong is the energy density of this cultivation?
This is equivalent to pointing directly to the origin of the Great Dao?
If the Fulong monk is a qi refiner, then it can be understood if he casually throws down the water purification bottle.
ββPerhaps, the extremely precious spiritual weapon for him is completely readily available to the Fulong monk, so he naturally will not cherish it!
In other words, is this the fundamental reason why there are constant myths in the world, and the incense has a master, but the person is never seen?
"What the Qi Refiner said, does the mage have any evidence?" Mo Chuan asked.
"Shi Haigou sinks, how can the poor monk have any evidence? However, there are some ancient books that are unique, with a slight sporadic record, and both worlds of Buddhism and Taoism think that it is a change of terminology. In order to prevent insects from decaying, most of the existing ancient books of Buddhism and Taoism have been copied and changed several times, and the original place has long been lost. According to the poor monk's observation, all the ancient books that record the qi refiner have a history of thousands of years, so whether this matter is a change in terms or someone secretly conceals it, the poor monk can't be sure. β
Master Shenquan shook his head, a little regretful.
There was one thing he didn't say.
The Meritorious Division once invited him to an important position and promised to open the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of the Inner Court Buddhism.
However, this was rejected by him.
The reason is no, in his opinion, the meritorious department has forgotten "virtue", only the word "merit" remains.
"Didn't the Master inquire about the twin dragons in the temple?"
Mo Chuan asked, subconsciously thinking of the Ox in his heart, its sealing time is not short, maybe he knows something?
[Note 1, the change of Kunpeng in Zhuang Zhou's "Getaway", there is an interpretation that Kunpeng is not the change of the divine beast, but alludes to the celestial universe, and only the celestial phenomena can use a magnificent sentence that does not know thousands of miles! Some people believe that this is a description of the ancient "Xuanye Theory". If you are interested, you can find your own information and see, it is very similar to the modern cosmology. γ
