Chapter 374: Ji Yan's Eyes Are Fluctuating (4) Compromise
PS: (Today, I will first continue to thank the book friend "The Group is Round" for the reward!My work "Tianlong Undefeated" released a new chapter "Chapter 374 Jiyan Exhausted Eyes (4) Eclectic", http://www./Book/3058817.aspx)
Xuzhu replied: "The root vows are relatively easy, and they are divided into four levels, the first being the five precepts, the second being the eight precepts, the next being the ten precepts, and finally the full vows, that is, the two hundred and fifty precepts. The five precepts are held by lay people, one is not to kill, two is not to steal, three is not to commit adultery, four is not to lie, and five is not to drink alcohol. As for the monks, they have to keep the eight precepts, the ten precepts, and even the two hundred and fifty precepts, which are much stricter than the five precepts. All in all, non-killing is the first precept of Buddhism. ”
Dongfang Undefeated then asked: "I have heard that if a Buddhist monk wants to achieve positive results, he must hold the Mahayana precepts, which are called the Ten Forbearances, yes or no?"
Xu Zhu felt a chill in his heart and said, "Exactly." The Mahayana vows focus on sacrificing oneself to save others, which means that in order to make offerings to the Buddhas and purify sentient beings, even one's own life can be sacrificed, but it is not really necessary to do these ten things. ”
Dongfang Undefeated continued to ask: "What is the Ten Ninjas?"
Xuzhu martial arts are mediocre, but the Buddhist scriptures are familiar, and he said: "One cuts the meat to feed the eagle, the second throws himself into the hungry tiger, the third beheads thank the sky, the four folds the bones out of the marrow, the five pick the body and a thousand lamps, the six pick the eyes to give, the seven peel the skin of the scriptures, the eight stabs of the heart to decide, the nine burn the body for the Buddha, and the ten of blood to sprinkle the ground." ”
After he finished speaking, Dongfang Undefeated asked, "What is the matter of cutting meat and feeding eagles?"
Xuzhu explained: "That was the previous life of my Buddha Shakyamuni, and he saw a hungry eagle chasing a pigeon, and he couldn't bear it. Hide the pigeon. The hungry eagle said, 'You saved the pigeon, but you starved me to death, didn't you kill me?' Feed the hungry eagles. ”
Dongfang Undefeated asked: "The story of the hungry tiger, I think it's almost the same?"
Xuzhu bowed his head and said, "Exactly." ”
Dongfang was undefeated and said: "According to ah, the rules and precepts of Buddhism are broad and profound, and they are just the words 'do not kill'." If you don't catch chickens and deer and let your child drink blood, you must follow Shakyamuni's example and give her your own blood to drink. Otherwise, you are not a disciple of Buddhism. ”
When Xu Zhu heard this, he lost his mind for a while, scratched his head and said, "This...... This ......"
Dongfang Undefeated urged: "Hurry." Whether to catch deer and sheep so that Grandma Tong can drink their blood, or give your blood to her old man to drink, you can make a decision now!"
"Okay, I'll supply Grandma Tong's seniors with my flesh and blood. Xuzhu finally gave such an answer. As he spoke, he raised the sleeve of his left hand. Showing his arm, he said resolutely: "Master Zhang will get off my arm and go to eat it for Grandma Tong!"
"What? ...... you" Dongfang Undefeated originally wanted to come up with a "way for the other and give back to the other", and used the teachings of Buddhism to force Xuzhu, a pious monk, to submit, but unexpectedly he gave an answer that ordinary people would never give.
Dongfang Undefeated raised his hand, and wanted to slap it on Xuzhu's big bald head, and scolded secretly: "You monk." It's stupid, it's stupid. Are you still stupid? Answer me like that, then how can I let you catch food?"
But when the palm of his hand fell halfway, he stopped, and thought: "Don't hit him, so as not to wake up the passengers around him and ask for trouble." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Dongfang Undefeated finally came up with a more compromise solution, so he said to Xuzhu: "Little Master, then you go to the slaughterhouse in the city every day, saying that you want to take blood to refine medicine to cure diseases, and bring a jar of blood for Grandma Tong's fate, right? Anyway, those animals will be slaughtered, their death has nothing to do with you, and you took their blood and saved a person's life, why not do it?"
This time, Xuzhu scratched the top of his head and said, "Well, this ...... Well...... "Finally, I couldn't think of any words to refute it, so I reluctantly agreed.
As soon as it was dawn on the second day, Dongfang Undefeated gave Xuzhu an empty wine jar and let him go out of the inn to turn "blood".
About an hour later, Xuzhu came back with a full jar of sheep blood, and after Dongfang Undefeated took the blood, he praised him for doing things quickly, but Xuzhu was "Amitabha" vigorously.
At noon, the girl drank the blood of the sheep, her stomach bulged high, and she went to the bed and sat cross-legged, pointing to the sky with one hand and the earth with the other, and practiced the "Heaven and Earth Eternal Immortal Exercise", and white smoke came out of her nose, which swirled around her head.
When Xu Zhu saw it, he clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, sin, sin!"
Dongfang was undefeated, but he comforted on the side: "What is the crime of saving someone's life?"
After a long time, Grandma Tong put away her cigarette and stood up, and said to Dongfang Undefeated: "Iron head boy, your martial arts are good, I will rely on you to protect the Dharma for me in the next few days." Grandma rarely thanked people in her life, but today I can't help but say thank you to you. ”
Dongfang Undefeated hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Where, where, I protect you, it can be regarded as to fulfill the promise of curing the predecessors of Wuyazi, purely for a selfish heart, why do you need to thank you?" paused, and then said: "If the seniors really want to thank you, then please thank this bodhisattva-hearted Xuzhu little master." It is thanks to him that he has taken the blood of the sheep today. ”
Grandma Tong looked Xuzhu up and down for a while, and then asked, "Where is the little master becoming a monk?
Xuzhu folded his hands and replied: "Amitabha, the little monk is a Shaolin disciple, and his legal name is Xuzhu." ”
Grandma Tong nodded and said, "Your Dharma name is Xuzhu, well, Ling, Xuan, Hui, Xu, you are the thirty-seventh generation disciple of the Shaolin School." Xuan Ci, Xuan Compassion, Xuan Bitterness, Xuan Suffering, Xuan Pain, these little monks, are all your ancestors, right?"
Xuzhu took a step back, surprised, this eight or nine-year-old girl actually knew that she was a teacher, and even called Xuan Ci, Xuan Bei and other teachers and uncles "little monks", where did she look like a little girl?
Tianshan Tong's grandmother asked again: "Do you just say yes, if you don't, why don't you answer?"
Xu Zhu replied: "You are right, just calling my abbot master 'little monk' is too much." ”
Tianshan Tong's grandmother said proudly: "Why is it not a little monk? I have a relationship with his master, Master Lingmen, how come Xuan Ci is not a little monk? What is 'too much' or not 'too much'?"
Xuzhu was even more surprised, Xuanci's master, Lingmen Zen Master, was an outstanding monk among the thirty-fourth generation of disciples of the Shaolin School, and Xuzhu knew it.
But he has never understood the miraculous effect of "eternal immortality and longevity", so he doesn't know whether to believe or blame the "arrogant" words of the girl in front of him.
After a few days like this, Dongfang Undefeated and Xuzhu witnessed that Grandma Tong's appearance changed day by day, and in only five or six days, she had changed from an eleven or twelve-year-old girl to a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, only the same body as before, still short.
In the afternoon of this day, Dongfang Undefeated was going to the kitchen to take two steamed buns and nibble on them, and when he passed by Murong Fu's room, he suddenly heard the voice of Boss Wu coming from inside.
He said: "Hey, what the hell, that iron-headed man surnamed Zhang carried the girl in the Vulture Palace on his back, as if the world had evaporated and disappeared out of thin air." (To be continued......)
