Chapter 74 Preaching the scriptures is better than talking about poetry, and it is better to talk about the true Buddha realm of holding precepts
Ye Haotian walked to the front of the stage with a calm demeanor, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and he said loudly: "Before I start to preach the scriptures, let me ask you a question: Can anyone tell me how many Buddhists there are in your country?"
The audience didn't know what he meant by asking, but they all stared at him, and none of them spoke.
Mr. Kameyama first glanced at Ashikaga Yoshimitsu and saw that his face was expressionless, so he stood up and replied, "Zen Buddhism is extremely popular in our country, and the number of Buddhists is not less than half of the total population. ”
Ye Haotian shook his head: "I don't think it's that much." Even in Middle-earth, the number of Buddhist disciples is less than 30% of the total population......"
Before the words fell, he saw Ashikaga Yoshimitsu raise his head violently and refuted loudly: "Our country is making rapid progress, and naturally the blue is better than the blue!"
Ye Haotian still shook his head in disbelief: "I think that less than one percent of the real Buddhas in your country are! Not even one percent!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the audience was in an uproar.
Someone shouted: "O Han thief, you have only been here for a few days, how dare you be arrogant and talk nonsense?"
Someone scolded: "Who do you think you are? A living Buddha, a high monk, or a bodhisattva, why do you say these things? Don't go back to Middle-earth! Don't be embarrassed here!"
Ye Haotian raised his voice amid the noise of the crowd: "Who knows, what is a Buddha, what is the essence of a Buddha, and what are the benefits of cultivating a Buddha?"
At this point, he paced back and forth on the stage and asked in a loud voice, "Who can answer these questions? I will reward him with a thousand taels of silver!"
Hearing this, the audience became a mess.
Someone shouted: "Lao Tzu will have tens of thousands of silver for a trip to the beach, who is rare about your stinky money?"
Some people said: "Nonsense! What do you say is a Buddha? Everyone says that there is no answer to this question at all!"
Lan'er frowned when she heard this, and she was worried about Ye Haotian in her heart: "Childe is too reckless!
Ye Haotian saw that the situation at the scene was almost out of control, so he didn't hurry to take out the 'Buddha Chime', one of the three treasures of the earth, and knocked it gently, and suddenly made a crisp and pleasant sound. Although the voice was not loud, it could penetrate the bottom of the heart, making everyone in the audience quiet a lot.
Then, I heard him say in a loud voice: "Let me tell you: The so-called Buddha is 'an enlightened person.'" Knowing that all afflictions are caused and combined, and thoroughly proving that the consciousness of stillness and light is pervasive, and that it is able to stay away from afflictions and realize greatly, is called a 'Buddha'. ”
After saying these words, he knocked on the Buddha chime again, suppressing the noisy voices of the crowd.
Zhong Chi kept in his ears, causing nearly half of the audience to fall into deep thought.
However, half of the people were shouting: "Who doesn't understand this truth? But who can really become a Buddha? In my opinion, it's just a fool's dream!"
Ye Haotian ignored everyone's troubles, slightly raised his true qi, and his voice sounded like a bell, resounding in the sky above the Lower Duck Shrine: "The essence of the Buddha is a heart, and the purpose and result of cultivating the Buddha are for the eternal and supreme Buddha heart." The main content of Buddhism is to teach people to rest their delusions and realize that they are not born and destroyed, that they are not real or empty, and that they are carefree. In other words, it is to ask people to regain their long-lost hearts, that is, to see their surnames clearly!"
As he spoke, he walked around the stage like Chenghai National Teacher, tapping the Buddha chime from time to time.
The chime sound is melodious and melodious.
Unconsciously, everyone in the audience gradually quieted down.
There are fewer and fewer people clamoring. Those people probably have a deep demon surname, so they can't calm down all at once.
Ye Haotian tried hard to recall the theory about Buddhism obtained in the Jiuhua Pure Land, and he did not stop in his mouth, and said endlessly: "What is the Buddha's mind? The Buddha's mind is the fruit of Buddhism's practice, and it includes the three realms of precepts, concentration, and wisdom. To be pure and untainted is to take precepts, to be immobile is to be fixed, and to contemplate without hindrance is to be wise. If the Buddha is compared to a tree, the precepts are the roots of the tree, the trunk of the tree, and the wisdom is the flowers that bloom on the tree. Therefore, if you want to practice Buddhism, the first step must be to lay a good foundation for the precepts. The main thing I'm going to talk about today is the precepts!"
At this time, some people in the audience were pointing fingers and sneering loudly: "Look! The person in China doesn't know how to be flexible, and what the Buddhist scriptures say is what it is, and he doesn't even have a little understanding of himself!"
As if he hadn't heard, Ye Haotian smiled and took out the Heavenly Prison Ruler, and shook it twice in the wind with his strength.
The ruler contains more than 20 billion Buddha hearts, and after the wind spreads, the shrine is filled with a rare peaceful atmosphere.
The hearts of the people who were clamoring in the audience trembled, and they suddenly became a little shorter! It felt as if a child had lied and been exposed by his parents.
The Chenghai National Teacher on the stage was even more heartbeat, and the whole person became panicked.
Ye Haotian gently patted the prison ruler and asked in a deep voice: "Do you know what I am holding in my hand? This is a precept ruler, which was given to me by a bodhisattva when I passed through Putuo Mountain on my way here. It reminds me to always be on the lookout for delusions. ”
"What are the precepts? The precepts are the 'foundation of righteous liberation' and the 'supreme bodhi book', and they are the foundation of Buddhism! The precepts are like the earth, like the foundation of a house, and whether the house is built firmly depends on whether the foundation is dug deep enough. ”
"In the past, before the World Venerable went to extinction, his disciples asked, 'Who will we rely on when you are old?' My Buddha's compassionate teaching: 'Take the precepts as a teacher'!"
The words spread far and wide, echoing over the shrine of Nuoda!
At the same time, he gently struck the Heavenly Ruler with the Buddha Chime, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
Although the voice is not loud, it has the function of cutting hair and washing the marrow, which makes everyone in the audience feel refreshed and gradually settle down.
It was only at this time that Ye Haotian's preaching became relatively easy.
I just listened to him calmly explain: "Keeping the vows can calm our scattered minds. No matter whether you do good or cut off evil, whether you are free from suffering or happy, the precepts have the effect of determining your surname. From the perspective of Buddhism, the high status of a person in the world does not depend on whether his race is noble, whether his complexion is solemn, and not how much wealth he has, but whether he has lofty virtues and whether he has the heart of a Buddha who practices. A person who has no precepts, concentration, and wisdom, even if he is rich and has a strict appearance, is not much different from a beast in the eyes of the Buddha! On the contrary, a person who can strictly observe the pure precepts and has noble morals, even if he has a humble status and has little knowledge or knowledge, can still be respected as a victor in the world and worthy of everyone's respect!"
Before the words fell, suddenly a person stood up from a distance behind the stage and retorted loudly: "Holding the precept is a binding on a person's surname. There are so many precepts in Buddhism! There are so many precepts in the way! Good 'free people' don't do it, but they find precepts and tie themselves to death, this kind of thing that our Yamato nation can't do! We don't bother to do it!"
Ye Haotian took a closer look, and found that it was his defeated general Mu Gu Xu, who spoke, and it seemed that the heavy blow he suffered from losing chess was no longer hindered, but he felt that he had no face, so he sat so far away.
He smiled in his heart, but said, "What Mr. Kitani said seems reasonable at first glance, but it is not true. Actually, there are many benefits to taking ordination. If we do not kill and protect others, we will naturally be able to live a long and healthy life; if we do not steal and give alms, we will naturally be rich and enjoy wealth; if we respect the names and integrity of others without spurious silver, we will naturally have a harmonious and happy family; if we praise others without lying and praise others, we will naturally gain a good reputation and reputation; if we do not drink alcohol and stay away from drugs, we will naturally be healthy and wise. ”
As he spoke, he held the Buddha chime in his left hand and the Jiantian ruler in his right hand, struck the chime with the ruler, and gently played a song "Great Compassion Mantra". He is proficient in music theory, and he can make his own tune by simply tapping it with his hand, and with the heart of the Buddha, that is the Buddha's sound Sanskrit.
The melodious chime sound spread far away, and before you knew it, flocks of birds and finches gathered around Shimogamo Shrine, all of them listened silently.
Listening to the beautiful music, everyone in the audience felt very comfortable, and it felt as if from the sultry and hot Huangmei rainy season to the cool Mid-Autumn Festival, and there was no one in the 36,000 pores of the body that was not refreshing.
Even Mu Gu Xuan did not continue to refute, but sat down slowly thoughtfully.
At this moment, the old monk on the stage was like a heavy injury, his hands and feet and muscles "suddenly" jumped non-stop, his whole body was painful and numb, and he just wanted to jump off the high platform and escape quickly.
After Ye Haotian finished playing a song, he then played a song "Morning Bell and Dusk Drum", and at the same time said meaningfully: "The ring is like the bright moon, releasing a bright light in the dark night, guiding the night to return to a bright road." A person who keeps the precepts strictly will never do anything that hurts nature and reason, and will not harm others. Those who keep the pure vows will surely exude a solemn and cool fragrance!"
Before the words fell, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, who had been sitting proudly in the audience, suddenly became angry: "You said so much, but you just said to strengthen your practice and be a good person." What I care about is not to be a gentleman, but how to improve my skills! As a samurai, everything is nonsense without skills!"
Hearing this, the already quiet crowd in the audience became restless again.
"The general is right! We are all samurai who fight for their lives, no matter how high the Buddha's heart is, if you go down with a knife, your head will fall off, what is the use?"
Ye Haotian strengthened his skill to urge the Heavenly Ruler, emanating the Buddha's heart condensed in the ruler, enveloping the entire Xiaya Shrine, and at the same time said loudly: "Even if the purpose of studying Buddhism is to improve your skills, you should also follow the right path of precepts, concentration, and wisdom! The Buddha had an epiphany under the Bodhi tree and attained enlightenment. Buddhism has a unique way, without cultivating fists and swords, but can subdue the dragon and subdue the tiger, meditate and chant sutras and can communicate with ghosts and gods, the key to this is only in 'knowing the original heart', 'knowing the heart and seeing the surname', relying on meditation! The bodhisattvas and Buddhas are all boundless in their magical power, not because they kill a lot, but because they have the supreme Buddha heart!"
Hearing this, everyone in the audience was stunned, although they couldn't fully understand the meaning, but they also felt that his words made sense.
At this time, the eaves of the Lower Duck Shrine were already full of birds, and there were hundreds of cranes flying in the air, watching Ye Haotian "chirp" non-stop, as if he understood his words.
Everyone present raised their heads in shock, and they were in awe of Ye Haotian.
Ye Haotian raised the prison ruler again, added a little strength, and kept knocking on the Buddha chime, and at the same time said in an aggravated tone: "As a Buddha, you can't put the precepts aside! As far as I know, the Tang Dynasty monk Jianzhen once established strict precepts in your country, but as time passed, the law of the precepts was gradually ignored, and now it has reached the point of existing in name only. What is the difference between the monks of your country who know nothing about the precepts, whether they drink alcohol, marry wives, make money, do business, buy property, and buy property?"
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but shout: "Some so-called Buddhas only know how to recite 'Amitabha'. They said, 'If a person who eats fish can be reborn in the Pure Land, then a monkey can definitely be reborn in the Pure Land.' So it doesn't matter whether a person eats fish or not, but a person who recites Amitabha Buddha is destined to be reborn in the Pure Land. So they killed like mustard, and they were shameless. Where are these disciples of the Buddhist family? They are really standard demon sect traitors!"
When he said this, the heroic righteousness on his body had been exerted to the extreme, and his body was shrouded in a faint layer of purple qi, coupled with the mysterious power emanating from the Buddha chime and the prison ruler, the whole person became hazy, and it was not too much to say that he was a bodhisattva.
As soon as the words fell, the birds and finches in the treetops began to chirp in unison, and the cranes circling in the air also let out a terrible crane cry, and even a few deafening tiger roars were heard in the distance, which made the hearts of the Japanese people present jump wildly, and their faces changed greatly, and almost half of them knelt on the ground with a "plop" sound, and their faces showed repentance and shame.
Many people have already worshiped Ye Hao's zenith!
The old monk on the stage became more and more depressed, only feeling weak and unable to stand up, and regretted in his heart: "I'm going to die, why didn't I run away earlier?"
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu in the audience only felt deflated, but he was still a little unwilling in his heart, so he stood up and said: "The rest of the five precepts of Buddhism are good to say, but this killing precept is very difficult, our country is many people and the land is narrow, and the killing is continuous all year round, if you don't kill people, others will kill you." It's even more difficult not to drink, and as a samurai, how can you not drink?
Ye Haotian turned the simple tapping of the prison ruler into the sound of the warning "Diamond Sutra Song", and replied in a softened tone: "The main thing to abstain from killing is to cultivate our compassion. 'The one who kills the living, cut off the great mercy seed, walks, sits and sits down, and all living beings are terrified when they hear their murderous aura. Giving up drinking clearly refers to drinking, but in fact it means abstaining from drugs and everything else that makes people lose their minds. Only in this way can we see the surname clearly and achieve the Buddha's fruit......" Then he elaborated on several key points of the Buddhist family, and people nodded frequently and were convinced.
The old monk on the stage was pale, and he had reached the point of emaciation. The previous all-out attack had consumed more than half of his demonic skills, and this hour, after Ye Haotian urged the Heavenly Ruler and the Buddha Chime to play the Buddhist songs with all his might, his demon surname was greatly reduced, and his demonic skills were almost wiped out.
The audience in the audience had already knelt down in a large area, and everyone's faces were as gray as gray but full of eagerness, waiting for Ye Haotian to continue to preach.
Someone wept bitterly and said, "Bodhisattva, what should I do if I kill someone......?" Can I still take refuge in Buddhism?"
More were silent.
Because these people were all masters of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, and it was not just one or two living people who died at their hands? Every famous samurai rose from a mountain of dead people!
Ye Haotian did not answer directly, but changed the Buddhist song into "Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra", and at the same time slowly played the song: "Seeing that the five aggregates are empty, and all suffering is overcome, the color is not different from the emptiness, the emptiness is not different from the color, the color is the emptiness, and the emptiness is the color." Receiving, thinking, acting, and knowing are also the same, which are the emptiness of all dharmas, unborn and imperishable, and impure and impure...... Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot......"
The people in the audience gradually followed the singing, and the voice became louder and louder, and later the Buddha's voice and Sanskrit chanting resounded throughout the lower duck shrine. Even Ashikaga Yoshimitsu closed his eyes and folded his palms and chanted, while Kitani was already on his knees with a face full of shame.
Ye Haotian knew that these people were deeply sinful, and it was difficult for the demon surname to be completely removed, so he played the Sanskrit music one after another, refusing to stop for a long time, until finally, a loud bang suddenly came from behind him!
When I looked back, it turned out that the old monk couldn't help it, desperately climbed to the edge of the stage, rolled off the stage, but fell to the ground and couldn't get up!
A few Japanese people were waiting to come forward to support, but they saw Ximenlong walking forward quickly, and picked up the Zen staff beside the old monk, and with a slight force with both hands, he pulled the Zen staff into several sections, showing a slightly curved jade ruler!
He raised his hand and threw the jade ruler to Ye Haotian on the stage.
"Eight-foot Qiongqu Jade!Ah, the national treasure is actually hidden in the Zen staff!" Everyone was in an uproar, and all of them were surprised.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was stunned for a moment, then bowed deeply to Ye Haotian on the stage, and said: "This is a national treasure of our country, I have been missing for fifty years, I didn't expect it to be here! ”
Ye Haotian nodded, and at the same time combined the eight-foot Qiongqu jade and the prison ruler together, so that the prison ruler quickly sucked away the demon surname in the Qiongqu jade, until the jade ruler returned to its smooth and clear natural color, and then walked off the stage and presented it to Ashikaga Yoshimitsu with both hands: "Protect it well, don't lose it again." This jade can calm the mind and calm the mind, if you can go to Zen every day, it will be of great benefit to the Buddha's entry into the realm. ”
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu only should be, and said gratefully: "I ask the envoy to come to my house, and I will welcome you with the most authentic tea ceremony." Tomorrow's tea ceremony is not a competition, we have already lost the competition, and we dare not make an axe again. Thank you, Envoy, for giving us a taste of the breadth and depth of your country's culture, which we are still far behind. Matters of trade and trade are naturally subject to what the envoy says. As for the detailed rules and how to restrain our samurai from disturbing your country, we can also discuss them in detail. ”
Ye Haotian said yes in a loud voice, and then pointed to the old monk lying on the ground and said, "This person is only afraid that he is a member of the Demon Sect, so he must be carefully guarded and not let him escape." ”
When he said this, he had been thinking about how to control the old monk in his own hands, and then dig out the secrets of the Divine Sect. But because the matter involves eight-foot Qiongquyu, it is estimated that Ashikaga Yoshimitsu and others will not give up easily. It seems that the only way to hand over the old monk to the other party for interrogation is to get it over.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu glared at the old monk with angry eyes, and just wanted to say something, but saw Mr. Kameyama walk forward with a smile, and quickly pulled out a long knife like lightning, and cut off the head of the old monk with one sword!
A cavity of hot blood gushed out, and it was suddenly splashed all over the radius around the high platform!
The corpse fell to the ground in two places, and a skull rolled twice and came to the feet of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu!
Even if Ashikaga Yoshimitsu has been on the battlefield for a long time, he can't help but be shocked and retreat!
At the same time, Ximen Long's figure suddenly turned into a gray shadow, and flew out of the Xiaya Shrine with the old monk's vague primordial spirit.
This sudden change made everyone stunned.
Most people couldn't bear it in their hearts, and began to chant the sutra with both palms together.
There are also some people whose demon surnames have revived, and their eyes have gradually sharpened.
Several of the senior monks present, including Master Kuang Xuan and Elder Shenguang, chanted the Buddha loudly, and it took a long time to calm people's excited moods.
Ye Haotian's eyes were like knives staring at Mr. Kameyama, but he saw him walking quickly to Ashikaga Yoshimitsu and kneeling down to report: "Eliminate evil, it is not easy for such demons to guard, it is better to kill it with a knife, and it can be regarded as a great harm in the world." ”
This was said in a strict manner, making it difficult to find loopholes, so Ye Haotian had no choice but to give up with a long sigh.
When he and Lan'er returned to the accommodation, Ximenlong was already waiting in the room, holding the jade bottle and smiling: "The original god is here, you can watch and dispose of it." ”
Ye Haotian was very happy and sighed: "The matter was in a hurry, I didn't react at all. Fortunately, there was Long Lao, otherwise he would have escaped. After speaking, he turned his head to look at the jade bottle and asked, "Master Chenghai, who are you?"
There was silence in the bottle, not a single sound.
After waiting for a while, Ye Haotian asked the same question again, but no one answered.
He couldn't help but glance back at Ximenlong, meaning that there was no one in it?
Ximenlong immediately became a little anxious, and then recited a few incantations to the jade bottle, and scolded: "Thief bald donkey, do you want to die? Hmph! It's not so easy to die! If you don't open your mouth, I'll let you die a miserable death!"
Ye Haotian hurriedly stopped him, and said to the person in the bottle again: "Master Chenghai, whether you are really a monk or not, you should always understand the truth of 'put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground', right?"
After a long while, I heard a faint and weak voice coming from the Yuan Shi Yujing bottle, first with a long sigh, and then intermittently: "'A man is about to die, and his words are also good. ’...... I used to refuse to believe this old saying, but now I know it's true...... To tell you the truth, I am the tenth of the eighteen disciples under the throne of the true God. As for the origin, alas, it is shameful not to mention it......
Ye Haotian said in a deep voice: "If you are willing to change from evil to good, I will let you live." ”
Bi Di said: "It's useless, it's too late......"
Ye Haotian wanted to get the secret of the Divine Sect from the other party's mouth, so he persuaded him with kind words: "The jade pure bottle is not a good place, and great changes will occur in a moment or three. Don't you want to talk more? Talking about your own demon cultivation can be regarded as leaving a little warning to the world. ”
Bi Di was silent for a while, and sighed deeply: "No wonder it's sour and numb, weak and weak, it turns out that the body and spirit are going to be destroyed." Leave a last word, "Do I still have the qualifications to do that?" What can I say?"
Lan'er next to her also helped persuade: "If you still have any unfulfilled wishes, you might as well talk about it, maybe we can help you do it." ”
Bi Di seemed to be touched, sighed for a long time, and said in a low voice: "At this moment, I suddenly feel sorry for the White Emperor. I won't be able to see him anymore, if you can see him, please convey my apologies to him......"
Ye Haotian heard that the other party had something to do with the White Emperor, so he hurriedly said: "Okay, I'll take the words that I will tell you later." ”
"Since you want to hear it, I will tell you what has been in my heart for many years. Alas, you won't understand that as a demon, there is also a bitter tear......"
Ye Haotian's heart sank, he didn't expect that it would not be easy to cultivate demons.
But Wen Bi said quietly: "It goes back a thousand years. At that time, I was still an ordinary scribe, and I didn't have any internal strength, but I happened to get acquainted with the White Emperor who was privately interviewed by Weifu, and was appreciated by him, and soon became one of the top ten civil supervisors of the White Tiger Seven Stars.
Fifty years later, the White Emperor founded the "Divine Religion" with the purpose of "equality, freedom, and fraternity", which is a real "Divine Religion" that is not inferior to Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism, and is completely different from the Divine Religion that the true God says today.
Emperor Bai trusted me very much, and handed over all matters related to the Divine Cult of Kui and Lou Erxing to me in charge. I was grateful for the newspaper and worked very hard.
It's a pity that I didn't have any skills at that time, and although I practiced hard according to the teachings of the White Emperor, I always felt that my progress was slow.
All the generals around me and even any of the Heavenly Soldiers were much better than me, so they sometimes made fun of me, intentionally or unintentionally.
Seeing them move mountains and reclaim the sea with ease, I am always envious, and I just want to improve my skills quickly, even if it costs a heavy price.
It wasn't until one day that I met Tiankui Xingjun, the righteous son of the White Emperor, that the son was really different from usual. ”
Speaking of this, Bi Di stopped, as if caught in a memory.
Ye Haotian's heart brightened when he heard this, but he felt that he could roughly guess what was going on.
Lan'er asked softly, "What happened later? Could it be that Tiankui Xingjun framed you?" You're one of the directors of the Cult, and I think he should woo you. ”
Bi replied, "You are right. At the beginning, he surrounded me in every possible way, three for a big feast, five for a small feast, and gave me a lot of interesting things. Later, he said that he couldn't bear to see that my kung fu was too poor, and he intended to teach me a set of exercises, so that I could make rapid progress after practice. In order to attract my attention, he insisted that the exercise was extremely simple and could be learned in just three days.
Of course, I couldn't ask for it, so I didn't hesitate to learn from him.
After practicing for a few days, I felt that Tiankui Xingjun's exercises were really peculiar!
As he described, I started with rapid progress, and in less than three months I was able to split a two-foot-thick bluestone with one palm!
The White Emperor was very surprised when he saw it, and said that he had never seen someone as smart as me, and his skills entered the realm so quickly. He didn't know that I had already learned the exercises of another sect.
A year later, the day Tiankui Xingjun made his birthday.
In the evening, when the birthday celebrants gradually left, I was left behind to taste the newly brewed 'White Tiger Divine Brew'.
There are only me and Tiankui Xingjun here. At that time, he had only taken a few sips and went out, saying that he would come back in a while and let me drink myself.
I waited for a long time and couldn't see him, and I didn't want to leave, so I had no choice but to drink slowly.
As I drank and drank, I suddenly felt dizzy, in a trance, and an inexplicable irritability came to my heart, and I felt that my hands were itching terribly, and I only thought about killing!
I knew that the killing intent was wrong all my life, and hurriedly meditated and adjusted my mind according to the exercises of Tiankui Xingjun. But I didn't expect that the more I practiced, the more the killing intent became!
Later, I finally couldn't hold it anymore, walked out in a daze, killed more than a dozen sergeants in a row, and then became delirious. ”
Speaking of this, Bi Di was full of remorse, and at the same time indignant, unable to describe it for a while, and then continued: "When I woke up, I found myself tied to a pillar, and Tiankui Xingjun stood not far away, and said in a tone of righteous indignation: 'You dare to kill thirty heavenly soldiers in a row! and also killed two of my concubines......
I was stupid when I heard it!
Because the Heavenly Soldiers belong to the soldiers officially established by the Heavenly Court, they cannot be killed!
Not to mention the Thirty Heavenly Soldiers, according to the rules of heaven, killing a Heavenly Soldier will be imprisoned for a thousand years! If I kill so many, it is a capital crime! Even the White Emperor will not be able to save me.
I was crying bitterly, but I didn't understand what was wrong with me, how I could suddenly commit such a big sin.
Tiankui Xingjun kept watching me cry bitterly, until my eyes were straight and I wanted to apologize for my sin, he came forward to untie me, saying that it was not a big deal to kill a few people, as long as I did what he said, nothing would happen. He can help me cover up the past.
At that time, I felt that I was at the end of my rope, and where else could I think of? Naturally, I was grateful to him, and I was willing to worship him as a teacher and obey his teachings for the rest of my life.
But he didn't expect to get on the thief ship from then on, and he fell deeper and deeper.
The matter passed peacefully.
And I continued to practice the exercises passed down by Tiankui Xingjun.
Because I'm addicted to it, I can't do it without cultivating.
Three years later, my practice hit a bottleneck that I couldn't break through. When I went to Tiankui Xingjun, I was told that there must be 'bad achievements' in that set of exercises before I could continue to cultivate.
I asked him what 'deeds' were.
He said bluntly: "The deeds of iniquity are the deeds of murder and evil." It can be divided into murder and injustice. If you like to create and kill evil, it is best to cultivate the Ming Demon, and if you don't like to kill people yourself, you can cultivate the Dark Demon to accumulate injustice, that is, to use all kinds of evil methods to harm people. ’
At that time, I had been at war with the heavens and men for a long time, and I couldn't resist the temptation to continue to survive, so I chose to cultivate dark demons.
Since then, my evil deeds have been out of control, and to this day, I have seen the end of being completely destroyed. ”
Speaking of this, there was a sigh from the jade bottle.
Ye Haotian heard what he said miserably, and couldn't help but feel sorry in his heart, and persuaded: "Why don't you refuse to change evil to good? As long as you can give up the demon skill and completely eliminate the demon surname on your body, I will let you out." ”
Bi Di sighed: "It's late! It's useless!**It's lost, it's all over, and it's too late to regret it." ”
Ye Haotian still refused to give up, and continued to persuade: "As long as the Yuan Shen is there, you can still cultivate the Scattered Immortals!"
Before the words fell, he had already noticed that Ximen Long next to him looked a little wrong, his eyes narrowed into a line, and his face seemed to be smiling, probably because he had said the wrong thing.
Sure enough, I heard Bi Huang reply weakly: "'Once you cultivate demons, you will be demons for life'." It is almost impossible to change evil to good. Especially since I'm cultivating dark demons, it's even more inadequate. ”
Ye Haotian was very puzzled and asked, "Why?"
Bi Di's voice became weaker and weaker: "The Ming Demon Skill comes from cultivation, and the Dark Demon comes from the accumulation of the Demon Surname. The accumulation of the demon surname is the accumulation of evil achievements, and only when the evil deeds are serious, the demon surname accumulates more...... If you change from evil to good, the demon surname will die, and the magic will cease to exist. If it is still there, you can still change the immortal Buddha, and once it is gone, you will lose the last chance......"
Lan'er was a little unbearable, and gently pulled Ye Haotian's sleeve: "Childe wants to think about ......."
Ye Haotian understood what she meant, and said to Bi Di after a moment of silence: "I really want to let you out, but I can't do that." If you don't get rid of the demon surname, you will still hurt people after you go out. Now that this is the case, what can I do for you?"
A dead silence ensued.
After a long time, I heard Bi Di say: "I understand these truths, the day I decided to cultivate demons, I knew that there might be such an ending, but I was stuck in the quagmire and couldn't get out, so I had to take one step at a time, and one day at a time." To be honest, I'm not a natural demon, so I suffer myself when I hurt others, so it's not a good thing to be free. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be completely liberated. It's not a pity for me to die, it's just ......," he stopped.
Lan'er listened to his repentance getting stronger and stronger, and hurriedly asked: "What else do you want, please say it, if we can do it, we will do our best." ”
Bi Di's low voice came: "A thought of death...... Do I have a chance to die?"
Ye Haotian and Lan'er glanced at each other, and their mood became very heavy.
Because Bi Di is one of the eighteen disciples of the True God, he has committed a great sin, and people like him will be deprived of the opportunity to reincarnate and thrown directly into the incinerator at the bottom of the sea of the unjust soul and turned to ashes.
But Bi Di obviously has the intention of repenting, and if there is no chance of reincarnation, it will be a little regretful.
So both of them felt sorry for him.
Just when Ye Haotian was uncertain, the voice of Jiupin Liantai suddenly came from the bottom of his heart: "Bi Di has done a total of 19,300 things in his life, which directly caused 70 people to be killed or committed suicide, and the indirect death toll caused by provoking, provoking or instigating the hatred of others is 760 people, and at the same time causing 18,000 people to be in pain, 30,000 people to leave angry, 100,000 people to be sad and disappointed, 200,000 people to be afraid and uneasy, and 2 million people to be psychologically unbalanced...... It can be said that the sins are heavy and difficult to write, but according to the provisions of Article 3 of the Buddha's "Law of Death - Reincarnation", he still enjoys the power of the six realms of reincarnation. There is only one reason, and that is that he repented before he died. This thought is very important because it can take away ninety percent of his sins.
However, given that his sins are too deep, the remaining Ichiten is appalling enough, so even if he enters reincarnation, he will start from the hellish path of suffering. Unless there are eminent monks and living Buddhas who are willing to transcend him, there may be the possibility of reincarnation of evil ghosts, or livestock paths, or even humanitarian paths. ”
Ye Haotian looked back at Lan'er's expectant gaze and said, "It's a pity that I'm not an authentic monk, and the accumulated Buddha heart is not pure enough to help him chant the scriptures." ”
He knew in his heart that he had previously shown his might on the stage, relying on the power of the Heavenly Ruler and the Buddha Chime, as well as the heroic righteousness of Confucianism.
Lan'er expressed her understanding, and said softly: "Childe, why don't we go to the Golden Pavilion Temple and ask Master Kuang Xuan to help together, then the effect will be better." ”
Ye Haotian felt that this was a good idea, because no matter what, Zhu Ying had also been a monk for more than a hundred years, and he thought that he should have accumulated a lot of Buddha's heart.
At this moment, the voice of Jiupin Lotus Platform came again: "Zhu Ying can't do it either, don't look at him practicing for so long, in fact, he has just eliminated his own sins." Back then, he killed too many people all over the world, if he hadn't stopped in time to take refuge in Buddhism, he would have died a tragic death!"
Ye Haotian frowned when he heard this, what can I do?
Lan Er didn't know it, and urged on the side: "Let's go quickly." According to Buddhism, the thought of rebirth has an effect only at the moment of death. ”
Ye Haotian reluctantly explained the statement of the Jiupin Lotus Platform.
Lan'er was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Zhu Ying's situation to be like this! No wonder many ministers at that time were struggling to keep him, and the temptation of the yellow robe could not change Zhu Ying's determination to become a monk.
Just when the two of them felt deflated, Ximenlong next to him suddenly said: "Leave this matter to me, I'll go find a few monks, it's not too difficult to think about it." If you are lucky, you may be able to find a well-known Bodhisattva, and that is his creation. ”
Seeing the reluctance on Ye Haotian and Lan'er's faces, he pretended to be relaxed and said "hehe" and smiled: "The old man's mission is over, and the family is inseparable from people, so it's better to go back like this." ”
Ye Haotian opened his mouth to say something to save him, but when the words came to his mouth, they became: "Take care of Long Lao, I wish you a prosperous old business, hehe, my share will be a little more......"
Ximen Long scolded: "Boy, my Ximen family is the number one armor forging family in the heavenly realm, and none of the treasure armor I have recently created have been sold, so I keep them for you, what else?"
Ye Haotian was overjoyed when he heard this, and rushed up to hug Ximen Long and said with a smile: "Elder Long didn't say it earlier! I need 100,000 armor, that's not a small amount...... You've worked so hard......" he said, grabbing Simon's hand and kissing him close to his mouth.
Ximen Long shook his hand and shook him away: "Don't be numb! Keep these tricks and use them elsewhere." As he spoke, he glanced at Lan'er intentionally or unintentionally, and then walked out of the door and walked away.
Lan'er smiled at his gaze, and then a pair of wonderful eyes fell on Ye Haotian.
