Volume 1 The Backs of Gods and Demons Chapter 2 The Illness of Cold Cough and the Fourth Class
In order to save the child, Nagarjuna ate the poisonous mushroom that could change, and then hid in the snow pit for half the night, missing the best time to detoxify the poison, and his hundreds of years of cultivation were greatly damaged for a while. Later, under the skillful hands of the famous doctor Jainpo in Tianzhu, he was cured and finally picked up a life to go back. However, from then on, the path of channeling the gods that he had cultivated for many years came to an abrupt end.
After Nagarjuna rescued the child, there was nothing in the swaddling clothes except for a crystal clear ink jade bracelet. Because he read the last Mizong Buddhist scriptures in the Nantian Tower, there is still something unclear, so he gave the child the surname Mi, and this son is at the top of the Snow Mountain, because fate will pick up a life, so it is named: Mi Ju Mountain.
Although Jushan escaped with his life that day, he suffered inhuman fright and fatal cold at the top of the snow-capped mountain, and the fetal light was damaged, and he fell into a cold illness that coughed up blood. When it is cold, it will cough non-stop, and if it can't be stopped, it will cough up blood.
Nagarjuna Buddhism is profound, when he was young, he served as a deacon in Nalanda Temple, the first temple in Tianzhu, and once encountered a catastrophe, he turned his fate and saved tens of thousands of monks, and his reputation in Buddhism is very high.
On weekdays, he also made good connections, compassion and relief of suffering, and was also quite respected in the countries of Tianzhu.
Nagarjuna saw that Xiao Jushan had been ill for a long time, and he also tried his best to invite famous doctors from all over Tianzhu to exhaust the medicine and methods, but they could not be cured. The famous doctor Jainva even asserted that the son would not live to be ten years old, but a young doctor, Lavigupta (hereinafter referred to as Ravi), said that there are two ways to prolong his life:
One can take snow lotus, cordyceps, safflower and other herbs with a secret recipe for tonics, boil water and drink for a long time;
The second is to live to death, not afraid of cold, hard practice magic and immortal arts, even if you can't become a god, you can also improve your internal strength and strengthen your body. So, Nagarjuna began to teach the inner strength of the Giant Mountain Honey Sect, and if he had free time, he would go up the mountain to dig snow lotus and cordyceps, and sometimes the weather was fine, and he would let the giant mountain go with him.
Because Nagarjuna is a Buddhist master, although he and Jushan are like father and son, it is still inconvenient to be commensurate with father and son, so Jushan called Nagarjuna his master. But the Master may have remembered that he was weak and sickly, but he did not give him ordination, did not shave his ordination, and did not teach him the Dharma.
It's just that he is like an ordinary child, he can learn whatever he wants, practice whatever he wants, not be confined to the door, and grow arbitrarily.
Most of the people in Tianzhu believe in Brahmanism, Jainism, etc., and a few believe in Buddhism, but they are deeply trapped by the Brahmin caste. The so-called Brahmanical caste system is probably derived from the Vedas: after the death of the giant god Prusha, Brahma the Great, one of the three major Brahmin popes, created the "Brahmin man" with his mouth—to hold the divine power;
With his hands he created the "Kshatriyas" - in charge of the military and administration;
out of their legs made "Vaishyas" - working commoners;
out of their feet made the "Shudras" - untouchables and slaves;
Finally, there are the untouchable "Dalits" who are trampled underfoot, not even as good as the untouchables, which is the source of the dignity and inferiority of the Tianzhu caste.
They divide people into these four levels, some people may say that you are not good at math, I'm afraid it was taught by the sword teacher, isn't there also a "Dalit", isn't it a proper five levels together?
Sadly, "Dalit" is not a human being at all in the eyes of those above.
Most Tianzhu practitioners follow the four stages of life:
First, teenagers learn and are born ignorant, and not learning is not enough to understand the world;
Second, young people are at home, and it is not easy for their parents to give birth to children, so they must fulfill the marriage contract and have children;
The third is that the middle-aged Lin Qi, the confusion of the world, there is no way to get rid of it, only meditation and practice;
Fourth, the old age escaped, at this time the destiny of heaven is known, devote himself to penance, if he attains the Tao, he will soar to become an immortal, if he can't and don't do a burden, he will die quietly.
Thus, unlike Middle-earth, many monks of various sects, Shaman, also had many children, such as the Buddha Shakyamuni.
In the Dalong Temple of Yunyu Mountain, outside of Nagarjuna, the giant mountain is unaccompanied, but there are many young disciples who come to the temple to study and play.
In addition to the disciples of the master's disciples, such as Deva, Ma Ming, and Yunguang monks, other disciples and many friends often tease and bully him because he is Middle-earth.
There was only a little girl with a sweet smile, Manasa, who was quite kind to him, and later passed on some yoga jiu-jitsu to him.
Humans are social creatures, born from ancient memories of being hunted by other predators, and it is not surprising that they naturally like to be in groups and reject the different. Just like the people of China in later generations laughed at the Dutch who loved to take advantage, or the Hu Jianren who ate everything, or the Yuedong people who even ate Hu Jianren, and so on.
It can be seen that the prejudice of the human race has a long history and is endless, but it is precisely because of prejudice that the human race may not be so arrogant and think that it is inherently noble......
Although the temple is located in the middle of nowhere, it has a revered status, and most of the monks who come here to practice are from the Brahmin or Kshatriya castes. Some people see the mountain as a "Vaishya" for the common people, and some see him as a lowly "Shudra", who is always a dwarf in the end.
On the contrary, the younger disciples of those disciples and grandchildren felt that Master Nagarjuna was very fond of him, and they were jealous, and because he was weak and sickly, he was often bullied by Tianzhu's companions.
In the middle of the night again, several more mournful shouts were heard from the Nagarjuna House: "Mother——, get out of here, dead bird!" The mother ...... "It was as if there was another hot blood splashed on the child's face, and it condensed into blood ice...... After Ma Ming and Monk Deva were awakened, they sighed, and everyone complained in a low voice, while gradually falling asleep......
