Chapter 303: Forbidden Law Hall (Part II)

In this era, it is rare for rich and noble families to get up early, even if they are officials, except for those who need to go to court every day in the capital, which is not the sun is high and still in the nest. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The gentlemen need nightlife, and they don't get up too early in the morning. The rich ladies are not interested in getting contaminated with the morning dew, and even if they want to worship the Buddha and ask for a signature, they have to wait until noon.

Most of the temple's income still depends on these rich and noble families, and the 28 rule will apply everywhere, especially in the feudal era.

Master Xu promised to accompany his concubine to ask for a son yesterday, but he accidentally slept over, and when he was rushed to the foot of the Thousand Buddha Temple all the way, the sun was about to reach the top of his head.

"Yan'er, or you go up by yourself, bring your four maids, I'm calling the two nurses to follow, master, I'll wait for you in the carriage!"

In the carriage, the fat old man Xu begged softly.

This concubine was just married to him, and she was allowed to wear a red dress on the day of the banquet, so you can imagine his love for her.

The concubine has a graceful figure, with an angry and funny expression on her face, and her big eyes flickering, which makes her even more attractive.

"Master, you promised me yesterday! Why did you hold back today? Oh, isn't it just donating incense money? What are you afraid of? The concubine has it in her purse!"

Master Xu shouted lightly: "Nonsense, sir, I'm just worried about money, and I can't use your own money." But I just can't get over this hurdle, the monks of the Thousand Buddha Temple are dark, with a smile on their faces, talking and being kind, but every time they come, they bluff away a few hundred taels of silver, and I feel distressed!"

The concubine grinned, took his fat hand and shook it lightly, and said coquettishly: "Master, you promised me a son, but you can't be fooled!"

Looking at her delicate and moving face, Master Xu only felt that the blood was surging upward, and the love and pity in his heart rose.

"Hey, that's it, as long as Yan'er is happy, isn't it silver?

The concubine immediately smiled like a flower, raised her voice to greet the subordinates outside to prepare, and helped the master get out of the car.

The two walked side by side and led the people up the hill.

Master Xu is really fat, with more than 300 catties, in the feudal era of lack of oil and salt, he can eat himself raw into such a body, which shows the wealth of the family.

After only a few steps, Master Xu was already a little breathless, but fortunately, the mountain was not very high, and after 128 steps, the mountain gate was already in sight.

"Don't be angry, master, long time no see!"

The monk said lightly: "Don't come unharmed, I don't know what happened when the donor came over this time?"

"Without him, the incense is still wishing!" Master Xu laughed heartily: "The last time Master Yuanwen said that I was married in the south, sure enough, I only met the destined person in Yangzhou in just two days." I was delighted. ”

The concubine stepped forward and saluted, and said gratefully: "Marriage is destined, and the guidance of the Buddha is still needed, but compassion is in the heart, and the husband saves the slave family from fire and water, Xiao Yan'er thank you!"

After saying that, it was another salute.

The monk smiled faintly, did not stop, and stretched out his hand: "Donors, please come with the little monk." ”

At this time, the Thousand Buddha Temple is already very lively, there are pedestrians in the front and rear halls, each Buddha hall is for a piece, the green smoke curls in the huge copper tripod, and the incense ash is half a tripod deep. It can be seen that the incense here is at its peak.

Master Xu and his group had a brief visit to the front hall, and then went straight to the back hall.

Before he could enter the courtyard, he had already seen the huge merit box and the two neatly dressed little monks guarding the merit box.

Xiao Yan'er gave Master Xu a look, and Master Xu nodded with a wry smile.

"Go yourself, I'll come here!"

Xiao Yan'er pursed her lips and chuckled, and walked into the hall with the two maids.

"Master Bulu, can I ask to see the abbot?"

"Unfortunately, a few days ago, the abbot traveled with most of the senior monks in the temple. ”

"It's Xu Le who is abrupt. ”

Master Xu was a little depressed, he couldn't sell well in front of the abbot, and it would be a loss to donate more or less.

The monk saluted eleven times, turned around and was about to leave.

Master Xu hurriedly shouted: "Don't be angry, master, I want to donate some incense money to pray for my Xu family and eliminate sins." ”

"The merit box is here, and the donor is free to do so. ”

The monk replied lightly, and left without looking back.

Master Xu was stunned, this is leaving? Shouldn't you persuade me to donate more silver at this time? Or do you think that what I said before is enough, and I will automatically donate a large sum of money when I come over this time?

Master Xu shook his head, he really couldn't understand what these monks were thinking.

walked forward and said to the little monk next to the merit box: "Contemptible Xu Le, donate 200 taels of incense and silver." ”

The little monk has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, although he is not very old, his temperament is quite calm, and when he heard 200 taels of silver, he was still slightly stunned and said: "The donor really wants to donate two hundred taels?"

Master Xu became proud, "It's only 200 taels, I can only talk about my sincerity to the Buddhist family." ”

"In that case, then ask the donor to sign it!"

The merit book was turned around, and the words were already written on it.

Master Xu took the pen and swept his gaze on the merit book, and in view of the fact that nine out of ten of the pages had traces of alteration, he frowned slightly recently. But he didn't think much about it, and signed his name directly.

Raise your hand to signal the butler to take the money, turn around and leave.

At this time, another person next to the little monk spoke, "Master Xu, please stay, and please pay the charity tax!"

Master Xu almost couldn't believe his ears, "What? Let me pay taxes, what kind of taxes to pay?"

The little monk next to him hurriedly took out an official hat and put it on his head, and took the sign that had been standing behind him to the front, smiling silently.

Master Xu looked at him suspiciously, turned his eyes to the billboard, and saw that it was written.

From now on, those who donate money and property to the temple will be charged twice the charity tax to show the majesty of the Son of Heaven and the gods and Buddhas.

Below is the Great Seal of the Imperial Palace.

"What? Twice the charity tax?

"Please be cautious when the donor speaks!" The little monk smiled: "The little monk is now in the position of a tax collector, collecting charity taxes, and also asking the donor to pay 400 taels of silver, in accordance with the national law." ”

"Don't you think about it!" Master Xu was furious: "In ancient times, there was a harsh government that was fiercer than a tiger, and now there is a heavy tax under the Buddha Hall, how can the court law be so nonsense, it is really unreasonable." Competing with the people for profit is not the work of the Son of Heaven, I will go back and wait for a letter to be repaired and expose this matter to the imperial court!"

Master Xu flicked his sleeves and was about to leave in a huff.

The little monk hurriedly stopped him, "The donor really doesn't pay the charity tax?"

Master Xu sneered: "It's such a mess, you can't die!"

"Then please ask Master Xu to get back the 200 taels of incense money, my Thousand Buddha Temple can't make it difficult for the donors. ”

Looking at the little monk's face, he immediately understood.

I see, that's what it is.

No wonder the former Buddhist temple will be closed for seven days for no reason, no wonder the atmosphere is strange from the beginning of the mountain, no wonder the monk does not have a smiling face from beginning to end, no wonder there are many traces of smearing on the merit book.

The court is going to attack the Buddhists, Master Xu sighed in his heart, such a whirlpool must be extremely huge, and his relationship in the court is not shallow, and he didn't hear the slightest rumor, which shows the importance of the Son of Heaven.

This is the intersection of divine power and imperial power, not a place where rich landowners in the countryside can participate, and it is better to stay away early.

Thinking of this, he felt a little grateful to the little monk in his heart, and hurriedly arched his hand to take the brush, and was about to erase his name.

"The donor doesn't have to be like this, just erase the words "donate silver taels!" Respect the Buddha sincerely, money is something outside the body, there is no difference?"

Master Xu nodded and said with admiration: "What the little master said is reasonable. ”

And he told the steward to take back the money, and beckoned them to go out.

The concubine happened to come out of the Buddha hall, with a smile on her face, talking to the maid beside her.

Seeing that delicate face, Master Xu's mood suddenly improved.

After the Buddha worshipped, the merit book was signed, but the money was not spent.

After saving money and doing things, maybe the monk temple collects charity taxes, which is not too bad.

After educating the signs, when he walked down the mountain, Master Xu paid special attention to it, and found that there were indeed some inconspicuous signs in some corners and corners.

As he passed by, he took a closer look, only to see that there were a few things on it that he had not heard before.

The Forbidden Dharma Hall stipulates that all monks who kill, commit adultery, or eat meat and fish will be expelled from their monks and forcibly returned to the laity.

Those who occupy more than 30 acres of land per person will be forcibly repossessed of the excess acres.

No one who is the only son in the family or an elder who is still alive shall not be allowed to leave the family. If there is a last resort, it is necessary to go through the imperial court assessment, and those who can recite the Tripitaka Sutra, understand Sanskrit, pass music, interpret the scriptures, recite, meditate and meditate, asceticism and other 15 examinations, can be granted the title of monk.

"Good boy! This is a monk, or a top student!"

The housekeeper stuck out his tongue, feeling that his three views had been strongly impacted.

Old Man Xu shook his head and said with a complicated expression: "Forbidden Law Hall, just by hearing this name, you will know the meaning of the imperial court! ”

The concubine nodded obediently, and she also felt that the atmosphere here was not quite right.

----

"Today, with the Thousand Buddha Temple as the center, the regulations of the forbidden law hall have been widely spread within the radiation range of the surrounding areas of Jinan Prefecture. Some merchants, landlords and squires noticed something unusual, and gradually cut off contact with the Thousand Buddha Temple, but some ordinary people were angry when they heard that the court was mistreating the Buddhists. ”

Bing Sanzhang sat on a mahogany Taishi chair, holding a banana in his hand and eating it with relish, with a large mirror hanging above his head, but in front of him was a figure composed of dozens of three-dimensional images.

asked someone to escort those monks back to White Snake City, but Bing Sanzhang himself relied on Jinan Mansion.

In the scuffle that day, the officials were basically not injured, and Bing Sanzhang did not embarrass them, after all, the influence of the Forbidden Law Hall was still needed, and the assistance of the officials below was needed.

Therefore, he simply forcibly distorted the minds of the officials and put them back.

The transformation is quite rough, and the ideological conflict will definitely leave a lot of sequelae, but Bing Sanzhang is not prepared to care about their life or death.

For the officials of feudal society, he really lacks good feelings.

"Your Majesty, the caravan sent out has reached the first stage value, and the number of people who have gained a foothold is gradually increasing, and the number of teenagers we have collected has exceeded three thousand, can we start the acceleration plan?"

"Hold it back, and we'll discuss it at the next meeting!"

Bing Sanzhang waved his hand, he felt that three thousand people were still a bit small.

"Your Majesty, the twelfth satellite launch still failed, and the reason has not been found!" The figure who spoke looked ashamed, lowered his head and did not dare to look at Bing Sanzhang.

Bing Sanzhang said: "Maybe it's a problem in this world, ask the scientific exploration team to step up research and supply them with enough detectors." I wonder if the comparison above the stratosphere will be different!"

"Yes!"

This matter is particularly strange, according to the data brought back from Datang, this plane is almost a standard ground.

Obviously, the data is very standard, but there is such a strange thing as monsters, gods and Buddhas, where is the vitality of heaven and earth? Is it air?

However, there is no abnormal data in the air analysis sample.

The failure of the satellite launch is also strange, and the Kun fighter has already completed its round-the-world voyage, which has already proved that the earth here is also round.

So, it's not a strange world with a round sky.

The Earth's magnetic field is also normal, and the disorder in the 30th parallel zone has not spread to the whole world.

The gravitational acceleration has not changed, and the first and second cosmic speeds will not change, but with the technological level of the Marvel world, there will still be twelve consecutive rocket launches and failures.

This made Bing Sanzhang puzzled.

"I still have to find problems from those monks!" Bing Sanzhang nodded to the table and said: "Those Buddhist scriptures and cultivation exercises, the artificial intelligence side has been fully translated, it is certain that the power on their bodies comes from the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, if you want to solve the problem, you have to find where the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi is!"

A figure stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the comparison experiment team has been prepared. The monk who has undergone the transformation of his mind has already begun to teach, but according to him, if you want to achieve a small success, in addition to having qualifications and a firm mind, you need more than ten years of hard work, which is a bit too long. ”

"I'll find a way to do it for a long time!" Bing Sanzhang snorted: "There are many experts and scholars in the Ministry of Science, do you want me to figure out a way myself? Don't talk about this nonsense, I just want the result!"

The figure smiled wryly, he really wasn't sure at all.

In fact, Bing Sanzhang also knows in his heart that it is not so easy to find an entry point for two completely different systems.

"The cyborg side needs to be stepped up, I want to see the finished product at the end of this year, and the combat effectiveness does not need to be too strong, as long as it is a tie with ordinary martial artists. The bionic robot stops for a moment, it is an inorganic life form, and it is very similar to the recognition of local ghosts, I have seen many cases here, you can find a way to deal with this loophole!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Bing Sanzhang stood up, threw the banana peel out and said, "In the past few months, I will go all out to promote the Forbidden Law Hall project, and all departments will pay attention to cooperation!"

"Yes!" (To be continued.) )
