Chapter 440: "Ten Thousand Monks Do Not Stop"
You see, the three brothers really all bowed their heads and did not look up. The master and apprentice turned the corner, and sure enough, they saw a north-south street.
When the master and apprentice were walking, they saw a tiger sitting on the gatehouse, and there was a big sign hanging on the shadow wall inside the door, which said that ten thousand monks do not hinder.
Jin Chanzi said: "In the Western Buddha Land, the sages and fools are not deceitful. When the two elders said, I still didn't believe it, but when I got here, it was exactly as they said. ”
Bajie Village, you have to go in.
Wukong grabbed it and said: "Bajie is slow, wait for someone to come out and ask what is the case, so that you can go in." ”
Sha Seng also stepped forward and said to Bajie: "Senior brother is reasonable, I am afraid that I will not distinguish between inside and outside for a while, and cause trouble to the donor." ”
The master and apprentice rested their horses and luggage at the door.
After a while, a man came out, carrying a scale and a basket, and suddenly saw Wukong's appearance, and ran in to report in a panic: "Lord, there are four strange monks outside!"
The man was walking in the patio with crutches outside, chanting Buddha incessantly, and when he heard the report of his subordinates, he lost his crutches and came out to greet him, and when he saw the four of his masters and apprentices, he was not afraid of ugliness, but shouted: "Please come in, please come in." ”
Jin Chanzi was humble and humble, and they all entered the mansion together. Everyone turned an alley again, led the way, went to a room, and said: "This hand-started room is the Buddha hall, scripture hall, dining hall, and starting point for all the masters, and it is my disciples who live in it. ”
The golden cicada praised it, and hurriedly took the robe and wore it to worship the Buddha, and walked up to the hall to watch.
But see that: incense clouds, candle flames. The hall is full of flowers, and the gold shop is colorful. Vermilion frame, hanging high purple gold bell, color lacquer canon, set up flower cavity drum.
A few pairs of flags, embroidered into eight treasures, a thousand Buddhas, all gold. Bronze furnace, bronze bottle, carved lacquer table, carved lacquer box. In the bronze furnace, it is often sunk continuously, and in the bronze bottle, there is a lotus flower in every color. The carved lacquer table is fresh and the fragrant petals accumulate in the carved lacquer box.
Glass lamp, clear water, glass lamp, bright sesame oil. A golden chime, the rhyme is empty. It's really a red dust that doesn't reach Saizhen Building, and the family is bullied by the Buddha Hall.
The golden cicada cleaned his hands, took the incense, kowtowed, and then turned back to salute the staff.
The staff hurriedly stopped: "Elder, please come to the scripture hall to meet you." ”
The golden cicada saw it again: "The square platform vertical cabinet, the jade box and the golden letter." The square platform is a vertical cabinet, piled up with countless scriptures, and the jade box and gold letter contain many simple notes.
On the lacquer table, there are paper, ink, pen and inkstone, all of which are exquisite and delicate study rooms; in front of the pepper powder screen, there are calligraphy, painting, piano and chess, all of which are full of wonderful and mysterious real interest. Put a light jade floating gold fairy chime, and hang a cloak and a dragon hair cloak and moon. The fresh air makes people feel refreshed, and the fasting heart is consciously leisurely.
When the golden cicada arrived here, he was about to salute, but the outsider hugged him and said, "Please loosen the Buddha's clothes first."
When the golden cicada heard this, he secretly wondered what this was about, but he also nodded and took off his robe.
The member greeted Jin Chanzi, and invited Wukong and the three of them to salute, and then asked someone to feed the horses, and the luggage was placed under the corridor, and then he asked, "I don't know where did the elder come from."
Jin Chanzi clasped his palms together and said: "The poor monk is the Great Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Soil, and the treasure Fang Lingshan saw the Buddha seeking the truth." Passing by, I heard that the Zunfu respects monks, so I came to meet and ask for a fast meal. ”
When the staff heard the origin of the golden cicada, their faces were happy, and they said with a smile: "The disciple's name is Kou Hong, the word is big and wide, and he is sixty-four years old. Since the age of forty, Xu Zhai ten thousand monks have done perfection. Now I have been fasting for twenty-four years, and I have a book of accounts of the monks. There was nothing to do for a few days, and the names of the monks who had fasted were counted, and there were 9,996 members who had fasted, and there were four fewer people, so it was not complete. Today, the four elders of Cocoa descended from the sky, after completing the number of ten thousand monks, please leave the elders to respect, so that they can stay for more than a month, and when they are completed, the disciples let the sedan chair send the elders up the mountain. There are only 800 miles to Lingshan here, not far away. ”
When Jin Chanzi heard this, he was very happy, and he was all in power and did not accept the topic.
His small and large servants went to the house to carry firewood and water, take rice, flour and vegetables, and make fasting offerings, when they suddenly mobilized their grandmother and asked, "Where is the monk from there, in such a hurry?"
The servant replied: "Just now there are four monks from afar, Daddy asked him where he came from, he said that he was sent by the Tang Emperor of Dongtu, to Lingshan to worship the Buddha Grandpa, and now to us, I don't know how many distances." Daddy said that he was a holy monk from heaven, so he told us to fast quickly and make offerings to them. ”
The old woman was also happy when she heard it, and called the maid: "Take the clothes for me to wear, and I will also go to see what the Tang monk looks like." ”
The servant smiled and said, "Grandma, only one can see it, and those three can't see it, and they look so ugly." ”
When the old woman heard this, she hurriedly smiled and said, "You don't know, but those who look ugly and strange must be in the lower realm of heaven and man." Go and report it to your dad first."
When the servant heard this, he hurriedly ran to the scripture hall and said to the staff: "Grandma is here, I want to see Master Dongtu." ”
When Jin Chanzi heard this, he got up and sat down. After a while, the old woman arrived in front of the hall, and raised her eyes to see the golden cicada with a lofty appearance and a heroic appearance. turned to see Wukong, Bajie, and Sha Seng The three of them looked extraordinary, although they knew that he was a celestial and human nether, but they were also a little frightened, and bowed down.
When Jin Chanzi saw it, he hurriedly returned the salute and said: "There is a mistake in respecting the Bodhisattva." ”
The old woman asked the clerk and said, "Four masters, why don't you sit together?"
Bajie pursed his lips and said, "The three of us are apprentices. ”
His voice was like a tiger roaring in the mountains, and the mother was scared.
As he was talking, he saw another servant come to report: "Two uncles are also here." ”
When Jin Chanzi heard it, he turned around to look, and it turned out to be two young talents.
Na Xiucai walked up to the scripture hall and bowed to the golden cicada, so panicked that the golden cicada hurriedly returned the salute.
The staff stepped forward and grabbed the golden cicada, and said with a smile: "Elder, these are my two children, named Kou Liang and Kou Dong, who are studying in the study and come back for lunch, knowing that the elder is coming, so I came to worship." ”
After hearing this, Jin Chanzi nodded and said happily: "Virtuous! ”
Er Xiucai stepped forward and asked the outsider, "Where did this elder come from?"
The staff said with a smile: "The road is far away, and the Tang Emperor of the Eastern Soil of Nanbu Continent sent him to Lingshan to worship the Buddha and his grandfather to learn scriptures." ”
Na Xiucai said: "I look at "Shilin Guangji", there are only four continents in the world. We are called Xiniu Hezhou here, and there is also a Dongsheng Shenzhou. I don't know how many years I've been walking here in the south of Ganbu Continent?"
Jin Chanzi shook his head and said with a smile: "The poor monk is on the road, and there are many days of delaying the pavilion and few days of walking. I was often subjected to demons and monsters, and I suffered a lot of hardships, and it was thanks to the protection of my three high-ranking disciples that I was able to reach the treasure land. A total of 14 times of cold and heat before the true scriptures can be obtained. ”
When Xiucai heard this, he praised the award and said: "What a divine monk!
Before they finished speaking, another small one came to ask: "The feast has been arranged, please go to the fast." ”
Outside the staff asked his mother and son to transfer into the house, but he himself accompanied the four of Jin Chanzi's master and apprentice into the dining hall to eat fast.
There is neatly paved, but see: gold lacquer table case, black lacquer chairs. In front is a five-colored high fruit, a new outfit of a craftsman. The second row has five plates of side dishes, the third row has five plates of fruits, and the fourth row has five plates of idle food. It's so sweet and fragrant.
Vegetarian soup rice, steamed steamed buns, spicy stoves, all delicious, really full of intestines. Seven or eight servants rushed to and fro, and four or five servants did not stop. Look at the soup on the soup, the rice on the rice, one by one, it is really like a meteor catching the moon.
One bowl of these eight precepts is a whirlwind, and the master and apprentice have used it all.
Jin Chanzi got up and thanked the staff for fasting, intending to continue walking.
The outsider stopped and said, "Elder, don't worry about staying for a few days." As the saying goes, it's easy to get started, but it's hard to get started. Only when I have done the consummation will I dare to send you away. ”
Seeing that he was sincere, Jin Chanzi had no choice but to live.
After five or seven more days and nights, the other member invited 24 members of the Buddhist monks to set up a complete dojo.
The monks have been writing for three or four days, choosing a good day, opening the Buddha's affairs, he has the same world as the Tang Dynasty, but it is also: raising the flag, laying the golden face, Qi Bing candles, burning incense offerings.
Drums and cymbals, blowing sheng and twisting pipes. The cloud gong, the transverse flute has a clear sound, and it is also the word ruler. Hit once, blow a swing, and open the scriptures in unison. The first is to settle the land, and the second is to ask the gods.
Documents were handed out and Buddha statues were worshipped. Talk about a "Peacock Sutra", sentence by sentence to eliminate disasters and obstacles, light a pharmacist lamp, the flames glow. Worship the water and confess, relieve grievances, and satirize "Huayan". Except for defamation.
The three vehicles are very diligent, and the first and second shamans are the same. I did this for three days and nights, and the dojo was finished.
Jin Chanzi wanted to go to the Spirit Mountain to fulfill the agreement, and went to thank him.
The outsider saw that Jin Chanzi had come to resign again, and the advisor said: "The elder has resigned three times and twice, thinking that it is because the Buddhist affairs of the past few days are tedious, and they are simple and slow, which is strange. ”
When Jin Chanzi heard this, he waved his hand again and again and said: "No, the poor monk is deeply disturbing the Zun Mansion, and I don't know how to repay him, how dare I say that it is strange! It's just that at that time, the Holy Monarch sent me out of the customs and asked me when I could return, and I mistakenly replied that I could go back for three years, and I didn't want to be in the Lu Tan Pavilion, this year is already 14 years! I don't know whether I have learned the scriptures, and I have to go back for another 12 or 3 years, wouldn't it be against the holy decree?
Bajie couldn't help but shout: "Master is too disobedient to people's wishes! Not close to people! The old man is very rich, and he has made such a wish for a monk, and now it has been fulfilled. Why don't you just leave? You don't eat such ready-made fasting meals, but you raise money from other people! What kind of old man and old lady are you in front of you?"
As soon as Jin Chanzi heard this, Bajie was about to arrive at Lingshan, and he actually retreated, and said aggressively: "You rammer, you know that you want to eat, and no matter what the reason, it is the beast that eats in the trough and rubs the itch in your stomach! Since you want to be so greedy and obsessed, I will leave alone tomorrow." ”
Wukong saw that Jin Cicada's face had changed, and hurriedly grabbed Bajie, punched his head, and scolded: "The idiot doesn't know what to do, and the master even blames us!"
Sha Seng also smiled on the side: "Good fight! Senior brother played well! This can't speak, and it is annoying, so let you interject!"
