Chapter 104 Don't persuade others to be kind without others suffering
Green bricks and green tiles, ancient trees towering to the sky, ancient temples,
The morning sun rises in the east and falls a little light and shadow through the gap,
The green lantern monk folded his hands and looked like a bodhisattva in the Western Elysium who rescued the suffering and was compassionate, but the funny thing was that the blood of the corpse of Master Xuan Ce beside him had not yet dried up, and there was a touch of red at the corner of his mouth, but he still didn't dare to move, because the swordsman opposite was still holding the long sword, and there was a black death intent permeating the cold sword body.
The bitterness at the corners of the green lantern monk's mouth became more and more intense, and the master Xuan Ce beside him was already the pinnacle of the three-grade body training, but now he couldn't stop it with a sword, and the vitality on his body was passing rapidly.
"Amitabha, the donor's killing intent is too heavy. ”
The old monk of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion stood in front of the abbot of the green lantern without a trace, looked at Yan Shisan, who was dressed in black and ink, and said softly, he didn't make a rash move, it was really the swordsman in front of him who gave him too much oppression, and Fang Cai's sword was obviously just done casually, but he still couldn't stop it, which can be seen.
However, Yan Thirteen's sword was originally the road to killing, and the Thirteenth Sword was his famous stunt, although it was not as terrifying as the death aura of Sword Fifteen, but it was more than enough to kill a Sanpin who was not at the peak with just the power of a sword.
The Buddha always said that all sentient beings are purified,
But if you can't even take care of the people around you,
How to benefit all sentient beings?
The young man looked at Master Xuan Ce, who was lying on the ground with a faint breath, and thought,
"I wonder why His Highness came?"
The green lantern monk asked knowingly, maybe there is still a little luck left in the bottom of his heart, the inheritance of this sect is really unwilling to be cut off in his own hands, and he is willing to pay some price if he can stop it now.
"This hall has come to repay the cause planted by the master of the three precepts. ”
The young man in the python robe squinted at the green light monk opposite, thinking carefully about the background of the Lingyin Temple should not be underestimated, the four old monks who have just woken up are all three-grade cultivation, and the monk who is like an angry King Kong at the door also has a three-grade cultivation, and now the abbot in front of him is afraid that this momentum is the peak of the three grades, as for the old monk who is not good-looking in cloth clothes on the side, he can stand in front of the green lantern monk and still maintain an indifferent expression, I am afraid that it is also a real second grade.
However, the monk of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion did not dare to make a rash move, as the last second product of the Lingyin Temple, after the death of the monk of the three precepts, he can be said to be the last foundation, once he died again, from then on the Lingyin Temple has no foundation, after all, there is a rotten Ke Temple in the west.
Two temples, three mountains, seven sects, eight factions, sixteen villages, such a ranking is naturally in the truth, counting the dead Sanjie monks, a full two second grades, five second grades, high-end combat power is even faintly better than the imperial city, the same two temples of the Rotten Ke Temple can be imagined, of course, this is just the strength on the surface.
Originally, it was impossible for the Li clan in Longxi to gather all their strength in the imperial city, you must know that in the imperial city that day, in addition to the second-grade old eunuch Li Gaoliang, there were several breaths rising, all of which were third-grade cultivation, and there were also several third-grade masters in the governor division who pursued him after escaping from the imperial city, and the strength of the army was definitely far superior to the most terrifying unknowable place in the rivers and lakes.
merely
The world is very large, the rivers and mountains are thousands of miles, the boundaries that need to be governed are very wide, and the Lingyin Temple is very small, but there are few miles in a radius and there are very few that need to be suppressed, so it will give people the feeling that the royal family is not as good as the top sect in the rivers and lakes.
But chivalry is forbidden by force,
It's not just talking,
Jianghu, Jianghu,
The rivers and lakes of this world are really like the world written by the old man Gu Long, wandering outside the court, and the two most important places of knowledge in this river and lake, the foundation of Lingyin Temple has been terrifying to such an extent, if it is put at the peak of the time, it is the imperial court that wants to do it, in addition to the gathering of masters and tens of thousands of troops to seal the mountain and encircle and suppress, I am afraid that it is not easy to help.
In addition to the weakness of Lingyin Temple due to some unknown reasons, he is more dependent on the plug-in general system, and those people on the top of the mountain are really not weak, but they are growing too fast.
"Maybe I should get to know this river and lake again. ”
The young man looked at the old monk in cloth with a vague breath and thought to himself, and suddenly remembered the far west, the highest sword mound in the whole world, maybe, maybe, there is a legendary product on the mountain, Dugu's predecessor has been gone for a long time, and he has not heard any news back, and he has to go on a trip anyway......
"When is the time for the donor to retribution? ”
The green lantern monk looked at the mountain gate at the dragon and tiger formation composed of hundreds of warrior monks had broken most of it, and nearly half of them fell under the wide-mouthed sword, but the soldiers wearing heavy armor were still making up for it, and the grinding disc was about to crush the remaining beans, and the screams of the monk's death came from time to time in the temple.
"When is the time for retribution?"
The young man retracted his thoughts and muttered softly, but his expression did not change, since the direction of this Lingyin Temple is willing to reason with him at the moment, then he doesn't mind chatting with him, dragging it down is always good for his side, and it is also excellent to wait until the dust settles to deal with the two people in front of him.
"The senior brother of the three precepts has died, and now the donor Jin Ge Iron Horse has broken through the mountain gate of my Lingyin Temple, and has slaughtered hundreds of monks in my temple. ”
"Since then, there have been no grievances. ”
The green lantern monk calmly looked at the young man opposite.
The young man in the python robe was unmoved when he heard the sound.
"Color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and it is the same when you want to know it. ”
The abbot of the green lantern recited the Buddhist scriptures in a low voice,
"All appearances are vain, all the ways of doing things are like dream bubbles, like dew and electricity, as they are, everything in the world is empty, and the obsessions in the heart of the donor are all vain, why should you pay so much attention to it, you must know the cause of the past life, the recipient of this life is, you must know the effect of the future life, and the person who does it in this life is. ”
"Don't be obsessed!"
Behind the abbot of the green lantern, there is a surge of Buddha light in the sky,
In a trance, it really looks like the Buddha came into the world,
The young man was still calm and breezy, his brows were tightly knit as if he was thinking about something, he didn't care about the vision of heaven and earth in front of him, and he was still thinking about the question at the beginning.
"When is the time for retribution......?"
The young man muttered softly, and suddenly his brows furrowed,
"If it is a national enemy, it will destroy its city and destroy its national soul,"
"If the sect breaks through the mountain gate and cuts off its inheritance,"
"When is the time to repay the wrongs, and there is no one to die who dies. ”
"If you want to come, you'll be ......"
The voice was very soft, but the sound of chanting in the sky could not be suppressed, and it was a cold man who came in the dark night in filth, so why should he be expected to be compassionate.
"Donor, put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot!"
A hoarse voice came,
Looking closely, Master Xuan Ce, who had collapsed to the ground, had already bracked up and sat up cross-legged at some point, the red blood snaked down his dry body, half of the new robe had been stained red with blood, and he couldn't see too much anger with his hands on his knees, just quietly looking at the young man in front of him.
The young man raised his hand jokingly,
I saw that my hands were empty,
I don't see where the butcher's knife is,
"Neither nor ......"
Monk Xuan Ce clenched the tip of his tongue,
Lifting the last breath of spirit, Shen said slowly.
"People in the world often have delusions, obsessions, reversals, confusions, many evil words, evil deeds, malice, and so on. ”
The young man looked slightly stunned.
"If the donor is willing to listen,"
Then the poor monk finally told this allusion to the benefactor. ”
The young man felt the few Buddhist breaths around the ancient temple that were about to dissipate, and did not refuse, before everything came to an end, let's listen to it.
Master Xuan Ce's eyes were closed, and his lips were lightly opened,
"A long time ago in a temple, there was an old monk and a little monk in it, there was a pond in the temple full of lotus flowers, there was a frog in the pond, because the frog began to scream in the morning, affecting the little monk to read the scriptures, the little monk had a heart of hatred, and he couldn't bear it anymore and caught the frog and killed it, this matter was soon known by the old monk, in order to punish the little monk for the crime of killing, the old monk asked the little monk to find a cliff and jump down by himself. ”
The little monk cried and came to the edge of the cliff, hesitating and not wanting to jump, at this time a butcher happened to pass by, and the butcher asked the little monk: "Why do you want to jump off the cliff?" The little monk said: "It was because he killed a frog and committed a felony of murder, and the old monk let him jump off the cliff to commit suicide to make up for the sin." ”
"The butcher thought to himself, 'This little monk in front of me will pay for his life when he kills a frog, and it is unforgivable, and I have killed countless pigs, sheep, cows, and horses, and so on, and my sin is not greater, and I have already created boundless slaughter?"
Thinking of this, the butcher suddenly woke up, felt that he was deeply guilty and guilty, so he said to the little monk: "You don't have to jump, my sin is more than ten million times yours, let me die for you." After saying that, he threw down the butcher knife in his hand and jumped off the cliff. ”
"When the butcher fell halfway to the cliff, a white lotus flower suddenly floated in the sky and held the butcher ......"
"Putting down the butcher's knife is a kind of enlightenment, a kind of relief!"
"It's all about letting go of ......"
The butcher jumped and let go. ”
"So he became a Buddha!"
"Becoming a Buddha is a state of mind, a state of enlightenment!"
"Has the benefactor ever understood?"
Master Xuance's tone gradually elevated, and finally it was like Hong Zhong Da Lu echoing in the sky above the ancient temple, the simple blue bricks have pale golden lines along the gaps, it is the hall in the distance, there is a golden light surging on the Buddha statues, the Buddha light shines, just like the revival of thousands of Buddhas in the land of bliss in the west, an incomparably magnificent scene.
"Guang Yi is a man who kills people without blinking, puts down the butcher knife, and becomes a Buddha on the ground. From the fifty-third volume of "Five Lantern Yuan Hui", the last two sentences are also widely circulated in this world, but the rest of this allusion is indeed little known, and now Master Xuan Ce is not in a hurry to tell it, hoping that the young man in front of him can have some understanding.
"But if the butcher puts down the butcher's knife, how can he make a living?"
The young man's eyes were not shocked, and after a moment of thought, he asked softly, just like if Xu Wu put down the butcher knife in his hand, what could he do, I am afraid that those souls under the knife in the past will tear him apart in an instant, the surging brute will go south to Yangzhou and herd horses, and the pedantic literati will poke thousands of holes in him......
Butcher?
When his father was the Marquis of Zhenbei, he was scolded as a butcher by the court and the princes, and he went south to Yong'an after the battle of the party, and he was also scolded as a butcher by thousands of Qi people.
"Donor, all beings are equal!"
"All living beings have wisdom and virtue. ”
"It's okay to make a living, but why kill?"
"If all beings are equal, what is the point of our ancestors overcoming obstacles for thousands of years to finally climb to the top of this vast number of sentient beings?"
The young man said something that seemed inexplicable to the people of this world.
"But that's not a reason for the donor to kill!"
The vitality in Xuan Ce's body has become weaker and weaker with the flow of blood, his lips are pale, his already thin body is even more rugged, and the dragon and tiger array in the distance has been completely broken, and the monk in the prison holding the demon vajra knelt down in a pool of blood.
"We have a slang saying in Liangzhou. ”
"Don't persuade others to be kind without others' suffering, a very interesting sentence......"
"What do you think of more than the master?"
The young man in the python robe smiled.
"This ......"
Silent for a long time,
Most of the vitality in Master Xuan Ce's body had passed, and the surging Buddha light behind him had also dimmed, and his pale lips opened to say something, but he couldn't say anything.
"Accumulate virtue and do good deeds in this life, and ...... in the next life"
"And why bother with all the sufferings of this life? ”
Xuan Ce looked at the red-dyed robe, the pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow could not shake his will for half a minute, but he looked up at the air as if the forty-eight great vows made by the Fazang Bodhisattva according to the cause of the cultivation of the 48 great wishes felt solemn, pure, and equal in the Western Elysium in front of him, and he only needed to give up his stinky skin to enter the Buddha country and enjoy bliss.
Master Xuan Ce has already given his answer.
"In this life, I was a cow and a horse, and I went through all kinds of hardships. ”
"Looking for an ethereal afterlife?"
The young man muttered softly and undeniably.
Master Xuan Ce didn't answer, and all his thoughts were put on the Buddha kingdom that he imagined in his heart.
"Isn't this exactly what Your Highness wants?"
The green lantern monk not far away said abruptly.
I don't know when the title has changed from "donor" to "Your Highness".
"In the previous dynasty, an emperor came to Lingyin Temple and asked me to make my Lingyin Temple the state religion. ”
"Educate all peoples!"
"Let me not fall, and the national religion will not change!"
"Now, if Your Highness is willing,"
"Don't ask for a state religion, just for everything,"
"Poor monks are willing to lobby the world,"
"Regardless of the rest, at least 700 temples and tens of thousands of monks in Daqian's territory can be attached to the imperial court, and from now on, Daqian's territory will be in the unknowable place of Wulingyin Temple!"
