Chapter 206: How could it be a misunderstanding?
The old monk of the abbot panicked, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Xiao Rui, "The champion is slow." Lao Wei thanks Hou Ye for his kindness, the process does not have to go, and it is not possible to preside over the overall situation without Hou Ye. Please help me mediate the misunderstanding between the temple and the people. ”
Xiao Rui got off the donkey, "That's okay, Ben Hou will be a peacemaker." Let's talk about it for both of you. ”
"Master Hou, please."
Rao is monk in the temple hated Xiao Rui, the mastermind behind the scenes, and at this time he had to invite people in and sit on the main seat.
Xiao Yu, who was sitting precariously behind the monk, frowned and said, "What, didn't he come to find trouble?" How did you become a peacemaker? It is rumored outside that he has a personal grudge with Daxingshan Temple, but now it has become a misunderstanding between Daxingshan Temple and the people? Is this a misunderstanding? ”
Xiao Qi, who was sitting on a recliner with a broken leg next to him, said loudly: "How can this be a misunderstanding? The courtyard walls of the temple have been demolished, how can it be a misunderstanding? ”
Xiao Yue hurriedly covered the cousin's mouth, "Cousin, don't shout." The old abbot himself said a misunderstanding. ”
Many old monks glanced back at Xiao Qi, and said in their hearts, Is this the helper we invited, or the hidden stake sent by the enemy? At this time, if you don't say that it is a misunderstanding, will you let the people demolish our temple?
If the temple is demolished, what if the Dharma debate is won?
Xiao Rui gave the Chang'an County Commander who was sitting next to him a look, "It's time to start." Who is the sufferer? ”
The believers of Daxingshan Temple raised their hands and shouted: "We, we are the bitter lords. ”
The Chang'an County Commander waved his hand and pressed everyone, "Be quiet." You are not bitter masters, you are defendants. ”
"Hey, you little county magistrate, unreasonable? Someone has knocked on the door here, and we are not the bitter master? The crowd was in an uproar.
Xiao Rui coughed lightly, and the gang seemed to have thunder in their ears, and they all fell silent.
The Chang'an County Order continued: "The first bitter master is a case handled by this county, and the son of Liu Jinyuan in it. All his family property was cheated away by the Yuan Deng Temple and the Shanlian Temple. The host of the Yuandeng Temple confessed, saying that ninety percent of it was given to Daxingshan Temple. There is a signed pledge document as evidence. There is a son of Liu Jinyuan, please. ”
The case of Rich Master Liu can be said to be well-known to everyone in Chang'an. Liu Jinyuan came up and briefly repeated it, and Xiao Rui also took out the original document. The Chang'an County Order begged on the spot.
Why did the Chang'an County Order come forward to ask for it? Because this is stolen money, it belongs to Liu Jinyuan's money. If the court sentences the return to the family, even if the stolen money falls to the Daxingshan Temple, it must be demanded. Otherwise, wouldn't it be necessary to overturn the verdict against the Round Lantern Temple?
"With the prisoners, the hollow monk of the Yuandeng Temple, the presiding officer of the Yuanfa of the Shanlian Temple, and so on." With a wave of Xiao Rui's hand, the officials escorted nearly a hundred monks, all of whom were the hosts of the Buddhist temple that had recently been overthrown.
These people didn't feel that they were wrong from beginning to end, especially the hollow monk, who rushed to the front and hugged the leg of the abbot of Daxingshan Temple and cried.
"Master, Master, you have to be the master of your disciples. The disciples take refuge sincerely, and follow your teachings in full accordance with your teachings, eating and fasting every day and reciting the Buddha and respecting the Buddha. All the silver was used to repair the golden body of the Buddha, and the disciples did not dare to spend a penny in vain. From ancient times to the present, where have you heard of the incense money donated to the Buddha, and some of them have been recovered? They're robbing! ”
Open robbery? Xiao Rui sneered in his heart, when you deceived the people into donating, weren't you robbing it openly?
Xiao Rui asked loudly, "Abbot, is this your personal disciple?" You taught him all the tricks he deceived? ”
There was a hint of mockery and sarcasm in his tone.
The hollow monk said angrily: "You devil, you are all pampered, we are not lying. Respect the Buddha, and the Buddha will bless the world. ”
Without waiting for Xiao Rui to refute, Liu Jinyuan next to him couldn't help but step forward and kick the goods down, and was hurriedly stopped by the officials on both sides.
"You evil monk, are you still cheating and deceiving even now? If my father hadn't mistakenly believed your nonsense, would he have delayed the treatment and died? Buddha? My Buddha, I saw him keep collecting money, and I didn't see him save a person. ”
"Ignorant mortals, how can you people understand the great compassion of the Buddha? If you have been retributed for your own sins, it is impossible for you to ask the Buddha for salvation. After death, you can only go to hell! The hollow monk replied resentfully.
Yuan Hui, the abbot of Daxingshan Temple, stunned this crazy demon disciple with a palm, "The hollow Buddha's heart is in turmoil, and he has entered the demon path, don't listen to his nonsense." ”
Xiao Rui smiled, "Oh? Abbot, in this way, the words and deeds of the hollow monk were not taught by you? The temples of the round lamp temple and the Shanlian temple are all modeled after the peace incense of your Daxingshan Temple, and what is the matter with collecting incense money in a big way? Don't you admit that the Buddha can cross people? ”
The Chang'an County Commander hurriedly mended the knife and said, "What? The Buddha can't cross people? So how can peace incense keep you safe? Isn't that a lie? ”
The scene was in turmoil.
The old abbot calmly waved his hand and pressed everyone, and said loudly: "Master Hou, of course the Buddha exists. There is no lie in the Buddhist scriptures and the Dharma. Devotion to the Buddha will naturally be protected and blessed. ”
Scholar Liu Jinyuan retorted angrily: "Don't listen to him, my father has been devout to worship the Buddha all his life, and when he was sick, he donated all his family property to the Buddha to cultivate the golden body, where is the blessing of the Buddha?" What else does the Buddha say is an omniscient and omnipotent god? It's all a lie, don't believe his nonsense. ”
The old monk shook his head and said: "Master Liu, let Zun Shouyuan be exhausted, accumulate virtue in this life, and finally donate all his property, and all the merits will be repaid in the next life." He has escaped from the sea of suffering, gone to the Western Bliss, and enjoyed immortal blessings forever, and has been at ease ever since. This is the most enviable. ”
Listen, listen, is this set again? Not only Liu Jinyuan, but other victims also stood up to refute, who can say clearly about the afterlife of death? It doesn't work to deceive people with this.
At this moment, a slightly weak but loud voice sounded from the back of the crowd, "Dare to ask the abbot, is the Buddha really the god of compassion for the people of the world?" ”
Everyone got out of the way, it was a soft sedan chair, and the prime minister Du Ruhui who was still recuperating from his injuries was carried on it.
Emperor Li Er and Fang Xuanling panicked, why did Keming come? The body is not well, and it is just out of danger, shouldn't it be time to recuperate?
Xiao Rui had already gotten up to greet him, "Du Xiang, what's wrong with you?" Who brought you here? I can handle things here, and it's dangerous for you to do this. ”
Du Ruhui grabbed Xiao Rui's hand tightly, gave a reassuring look, and then said apologetically: "I already know what those two rebels did." I'm sorry Zangfeng. I heard that today you are going to fight the Buddha alone, how can I not come? Speaking of which, this Daxingshan Temple and I still have a period of cause and effect to be over. ”
The host of Daxingshan Temple hurriedly ran out and said, "Du Xiang, Ling Lang is here to repay his wish." You can wake up, it is Ling Lang who burned peace incense in front of the Buddha, and the Buddha blessed you to wake up, you can't take revenge and help this wicked person. ”
Du Ruhui smiled, did not rap with this person, but stared at the old abbot of Daxingshan Temple and asked, "Abbot, you haven't answered Du's question just now." Is the Buddha really the god of compassion for the universal world? ”
Fang Xuanling smiled and whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty, there is a good show to watch." Keming is a descendant of the Zongheng faction, and he personally went down to argue with this group of monks, hehe, it must be very exciting. ”
Li Er also smiled, "I'm looking forward to it very much." ”
