"Sure enough, it's the same as I guessed, monks and Taoists are couples, complementing each other, but the two of you want to double cultivate Buddhism and Taoism?"

Jin Daochang put down the teacup and waved his hand at everyone: "Fei Ye, Fei Ye, Yuan Wu Dao Chang is obsessed with Buddhism, and he is really not interested in Taoism, he is willing to live in the Compassion Temple, all because I want to listen to his Buddhist scriptures and teachings, so as to eliminate the karma of Taoism." ”

"Dao karma? Jin Dao Chang Gu Dao is enthusiastic, and he hasn't done anything evil, so he doesn't need to eliminate karma. ”

Sun Daqiao looked at the old Taoist priest, and his kind eyebrows and kind eyes could be seen Haoran righteousness, and he was by no means a treacherous and hypocritical person who was superficial.

"That is now, if it is placed on the young age of Jin Daochang, his hands will not be less contaminated with human life."

Monk Hua interjected and talked about the past of Jin Daochang.

Jin Daochang, whose real name is Jin Shouxuan, was born in the land of Baiyue in Lingnan when he was young, where the people are fierce, hot-blooded and martial, and every household has people who practice martial arts.

There are pros and cons, good and evil.

If a group of people collude to bully men and women, this is evil.

Jin Daochang's family, the era lives in Lingnan, for hundreds of years, the family multiplication is thriving day by day, the Jin family has already built a round tulou with strong barriers, the clansmen are born at sunrise and make daily income and rest, although they are not rich and noble, but they can also enjoy the countryside and live alone.

This kind of life, if placed in the era of peace, should be perfect, but it is a pity that this is the end of the previous dynasty, coinciding with the troubled times, the Taiping rebellion from the Lingnan Liangguang uprising, quickly spread to the south of the Yangtze River, straight to Jinling, Jin Shouxuan's entire childhood, in the Taiping army and the official army to spend the pull.

Civilians are often victims of war, the Jin family was plundered by the Taiping army several times, and when the Taiping army withdrew from Lingnan, the official army came to plunder again, the capital bandits were like combs, and the soldiers were like grates, although the Jin family fought desperately, after the Taiping army, the official army, bandits, and thieves plundered several times, they had already been defeated.

The children were no longer sheltered by the tribesmen, who were either sent to their relatives to be fostered or sold into slavery and disappeared.

Jin Shouxuan was unwilling to bear the fate of being able to see the head at a glance, so he went up the mountain with a burden and a dagger to become a Taoist priest, and in the past ten years, he has practiced his muscles and bones in one breath, and learned a martial art of fists and feet, and Xuan Miao Taoism.

Before leaving, the master erected a hairpin for him, and followed the instructions: "This time down the mountain, although it is a mortal experience, do not draw a knife to hurt people as a last resort. ”

Although Jin Shouxuan promised not to draw the knife easily, he made up his mind in his heart, he has practiced kung fu hard in the past ten years, and he is to do chivalrous righteousness and kill all the evil people in the world.

This ambition has been set as early as when he went up the mountain, and in the past ten years, with the improvement of martial arts, his obsession has become more and more determined.

Since then, Jin Shouxuan has walked in the mountains and countryside, but whenever he encounters injustices, he must draw a knife against each other, bullying men and women can be killed, robbing homes and houses can be killed, bandits and thieves can be killed, greedy beetles can be killed, bullying women and children can be killed, greedy and merit can be killed, and officials and people can be killed...... In the end, the hilt of the knife weeps blood, the blade cries, as long as the knife is flashed, the beast of a hundred miles will definitely be interested and timid, and hesitate.

Along the way, he killed a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, although he killed traitors and evil people, but human life is karma in his hands, the more he kills, the more grudges will be accumulated, gradually, there have been strangers to seek revenge, bluntly said to avenge their families.

One day, he chased and killed the evil bandits up the mountain, and happened to meet the flower monk meditating in the mountains, he wanted to kill these evil bandits, but was stopped by the monk.

Jin Shouxuan was puzzled, and asked why Monk Hua stopped him, shouldn't the thieves deserve to die if they do evil?

He thought that the flower monk was taking out the Buddhist's set of boundless sea of suffering, turning back to the shore, putting down the butcher's knife, and becoming a Buddha on the ground to persuade himself, but he didn't expect to find another way and asked the thieves to lead them into the cottage.

Jin Shouxuan originally thought that the cottage was full of thieves and robbers who were sitting on empty mountains and wasting money, but unexpectedly it was all old and weak, women and children, five disadvantages and three shortages, these people who couldn't survive in the troubled times were all raised by these thieves in the cottage, which gave them a way to live.

After some inquiry, the thieves did evil and really had another hidden secret, they were originally the county government officials to arrest quickly, after the rebel army crossed, the county government was broken, the county lord was nowhere to be found, they saw the old and weak women and children in the county miserable, so they fell into the grass for the cottage and robbed the passers-by.

Jin Shouxuan looked at those trembling women, children, old and young, remembered his family when he was a child, and immediately took a mouthful of blood in his throat, if he killed these bandits, wouldn't he be the same as those officials and bandits who did evil? If this is the case, then his so-called chivalrous deeds are nothing more than a lone man and a thief, who fights with force and kills, and what chivalrous deeds there are.

When is the time for retribution!

Only then did he understand why the master didn't let him draw the knife easily, as long as he pulled out the knife, there would be no turning back.

At this moment, Jin Shouxuan put down the butcher knife, and there was no killing intent in his heart.

Monk Hua bluntly said that it is indeed wrong for the bandits to block the road and rob the house, but they did not want to fall into the grass, but they did not want it in their hearts, but the world just made people, and there was also a small high hall to feed in their bandit village, if it were not for the government to exploit and the squire to harm people, these people might be a good citizen.

He saw that the thieves were indeed pitiful, so he had to promise that as long as they stopped robbing ordinary people, he would not trouble them again, and if they committed it again in the future, he would not be spared.

After this incident, Jin Xuanshou found that his cultivation actually began to progress rapidly, and after thinking about it, it was the monk's words that solved the doubts in his heart, telling him to know that cause and effect are in front and retribution in the back.

Since then, every time he has the idea of killing, he will think that all living beings are suffering, and only self-crossing to suppress the killing intention, but began to comprehend the Taoist opportunity, since the two can be in tune, he simply found the flower monk, and the flower monk practiced together to cross the world, and the two of them temporarily lived in the concept of mercy and grace in Kamakura Mountain, and became a good teacher and helpful friend with the friendship of monks and Taoists.

When Yue Qingshan led his gang up to Kamakura Mountain, Jin Shouxuan deliberately used being chased by wild beasts as bait, and wanted to kill these grave-digging thieves, until he saw the totems on their bodies, he knew that they were the Golden Rat Society that robbed the rich and helped the poor.

He remembered what Monk Hua said that all living beings are suffering, and decided to pull them and make a fortune for them, so that the Golden Rat would go to the Temple of Mercy to recuperate, otherwise, these people would have all died in the tomb of Prince Gu Chu about thirty years ago.

Yue Qingshan looked at Jin Daochang, no wonder there has been such a big change in the past thirty years, the former young Taoist priest was sharp, jealous and hateful, after the Buddha and Taoism rested, he became kind and kind when he got older, and he had the feeling of compassion and bodhisattva Buddha.

After the flower monk finished speaking, Jin Dao Chang raised the floating dust, and said "Immeasurable Tianzun": "Poor Dao was lonely and poor when he was young, and after entering the Tao with martial arts, he had a demon, and half of his life was spent in bloodthirsty killing, for which he wasted his Taoist heart and increased his karma, leaving only countless grievances, so far the harm is endless, and there is no desire to kill in the second half of his life, in order to save the suffering and save the suffering. ”

"Jin Dao Chief, then the totem of the Golden Rat Society, appearing on these corpses, you are not curious at all? The rat fairy is going to set up the temple, won't you go down the mountain to do chivalrous righteousness? ”

Yue Guanchao interjected and asked, although this old Taoist priest has cultivated Buddha, at least his eyesight is still there, he knew the guise of the Golden Rat Society when he was young, and probably knew the purpose of their coming.

Jin Daoist took a deep breath and explained: "The Golden Rat Society was in the limelight decades ago, and the accumulated grudges must be not small, since someone is in the name of the Golden Rat Society, it is the karmic cause and effect created by the Golden Rat Society, coincidence and causal cycle, everything has its creation, not that you people can deal with, if you forcibly fork your hands, you must stick to new cause and effect, you just got rid of karmic debts, and you really have to be contaminated with new karma?" ”

Although these words did not mean it explicitly, Yue Guanchao could feel that what Jin Dao Chang said was the shattering of the tiger talisman, and the last words, the words seemed to be beating Yue Qingshan.

"Jin Daochang, since Jin Daochang doesn't want to say more, we won't bother and leave."

Yue Qingshan saw that Jin Laodao had already lost his youthful righteousness, and he had no intention of saying more, so he had to take these people to say goodbye to Ci'en Temple.

On the way back, Yue Guanchao couldn't help but ask: "Jin Laodao has probably calculated what is going on, depending on what he means, he didn't want us to participate in this matter at all, second uncle, you really don't plan to fork your hands?" ”

"You kid, the meaning of Jin Laodao is already very clear, the matter of the Golden Rat Society, it is up to us whether to meddle or not, but if we intervene, we must also be prepared for endless harm, I estimate that this matter is not so simple, and the cause and effect involved will not be less."

"Second uncle, are you afraid?"

Yue Qingshan deliberately teased him, causing Lao Yuetou to turn around and glare at him: "I'm afraid of a fart, if I'm afraid, what are you doing in Yueyang, isn't it good to stay in the Northeast Cat Winter directly?" ”

"We, just wait for the full moon night, I want to see what kind of demons are in this Rat Immortal Temple."

Went down the mountain and rushed back to Yueyang City, Yue Guanchao thought that it was still early, and took Song Siyuan to the dock, planning to rent a boat to go to Junshan Island at night three days later.

"Girl~"

When they were distressed, a deep voice sounded in the distance, and the two looked back to see Zhu Fushun and Ma Yanghua standing on the board of the boat to collect fishing nets.

"Sister-in-law Yanghua, why are you here?"

Under Song Siyuan's inquiry, Ma Yanghua touched her apron: "We all heard your words, I don't think they will drive your boat, I guess they have encountered some difficulties, where are you going?" ”

"On the night of the full moon, go to Junshan Lake and Broken Island."

"Hey, then don't ask, now those who dare to approach Junshan Island at night are the fishing boats of foreigners, we little fishermen were all eaten by the rat fairy, and they didn't dare to go if they were afraid."

Some people died, but not completely......
