Chapter 38 All sentient beings are Dharma protectors, and all Dharma protectors are sentient beings
The pen is printed in ink, and the words are remarkable.
This word, the sergeant's mouth, is an auspicious word.
In this word, take kindness, and interpret it as obedience. But there is 'mouth' in the word, and this person is only afraid that he will get a quarrel when he travels far away. Another 'scholar', and when he was young, he met himself again, which is 'man into the earth', which is a sign of great evil. Seeking good fortune in the fierce, and seeking the number of poles...... "Wedge Anthology: Yin Understanding" said: What you want, you can gain, not full, otherwise it will flourish and decline. ”
The master contemplates the meaning of the words, and his eyes do not read, but he understands what this person wants in his heart.
"I'm afraid that what this person asks for is beyond my reach. ”
Shi Zixuan sighed in his heart, thought about it, and his soul sense jumped out of Dudou and entered the magic sword.
Looking at people with soul sense, this look was shocking.
Why?
Shi Zixuan's soul sense, I saw that the middle-aged man's head was three feet long, and there was a dragon lying on his stomach, with a green and yellow body and white lines.
"This person actually has a Dharma protector with him!"
Shi Zixuan was shocked.
In this world, no matter whether it is a practitioner or an ordinary person, but all sentient beings have protectors.
Protecting the Dharma, amending the Dharma, and protecting the roots of goodness are also mutual gains, and they are also mutual Dharma, and they take each other as the meaning of protecting the Dharma.
This Dharma protector is not a designation, but a cause and conditions.
It can be earth immortals, ghosts, heavenly immortals, true immortals, arhats, bodhisattvas, and Buddhas.
Due to the different causes and veins of human chances, their own Dharma protection is also different.
Some people, who are associated with spiritual things, have a life of Qing cultivation, and have the protection of the Dharma, or a snake fairy, or a fox fairy, or other earth immortals, depending on the fate.
Some people are not cultivators in the first place, and they have never had the idea of cultivating. However, the ancestors were great benevolent people who accumulated yin virtue, and they were determined to practice, and they did not give up their descendants in their hearts, and secretly supported them, blessed and sheltered their descendants, and also protected the Dharma.
Practitioners, on the other hand, have feelings in the Tao and in the dark, or they have the opportunity to support each other and protect each other, or they lead the righteous gods to protect the Dharma, one accumulates merits, the other increases the Tao, and increases each other's good results.
As for the Dharma protectors above the heavens and men, the Tao is full of divine powers and great wishes, not just the Dharma protectors of one person, but the Dharma protectors of all sentient beings.
This is also why there are scriptures that praise the supreme merits of the heavenly immortals and Buddhas, that is, the immortals and Buddhas use great magic power and great wisdom to protect all sentient beings, bless the supreme power, and transcend suffering.
As long as you have a thought to practice, you can get the support of the immortal Buddha.
And the people of the world, if they have to be supported, revise the Fa diligently, and recite the Dharma Sutra, they can also feed back the void of the Dharma Realm and increase the goodness and gain. Therefore, the people of the world are also the protectors of the heavens.
Shi Zixuan was shocked when he saw this middle-aged man, because the human body protector was not usually manifested in him.
Because after all, the mortal fetus has limitations, the bones are not connected, the magic is occluded, and it can't withstand the great mana.
If this is done for a long time, it will damage the spirit and spirit, and the life span will be short, and it will die early.
"Look at this dragon, the horn is four inches long, and it is the way to turn into a real dragon, why do you not know the importance of it?"
Shi Zixuan was very puzzled, and only after careful investigation did he understand the reason.
"This dragon has been hit hard!"
Shi Zixuan suddenly realized that this middle-aged man's dragon protector lying three feet above his head was mysterious, and he was unaware of Shi Zixuan's prying eyes, which was nothing more than a great loss of his true spirit, and in desperation, he could only recuperate on his own protector.
"I see. No wonder I see that although this person has a blessed face, his qi has greatly decreased, and he has a sign of death. ”
Shi Zixuan suddenly regretted a little, should he say anything to this person?
If you tell us calmly, you can't guarantee that you won't be involved. And he was able to hurt a dragon, and he was afraid that his deeds were not low, at least Shi Zixuan was not sure that he could subdue a dragon with his own ability.
"Originally, the wisher took the bait, but I really caught a dragon. Shi Zixuan secretly smiled bitterly: "This scale of gold is really hard to earn." ”
When Shi Zixuan was thinking nonsense, the middle-aged man was also observing Shi Zixuan.
I saw this person, looking at the top of his head, first shocked, then stunned, then hesitant, not knowing what to think.
Just when he was wondering, the middle-aged man overheard this person say, "Layman." I'm shallow, and I really can't understand this word. ”
He said to Liu Shusheng: "Liu Shusheng, and return the word gold to this layman." ”
Not only was Liu Puzhi surprised, but even the middle-aged man was puzzled, and said secretly: "What's going on with this person, does he really see the difficulty, or do he want to get away with it?"
I was puzzled, so I asked directly: "Dao Chief, if you see anything, you might as well say it directly, although this scale of gold is a lot, it is not in my eyes." ”
Liu Puzhi also nodded again and again: "Yes, Dao Chief." This is an open business, how can you not do it?"
Shi Zixuan glared at the scholar and said to the middle-aged man: "I won't lie to you, it's not that I can't solve it." It's about not wanting to get involved. ”
After thinking about it, he said: "There is a saying that if a real person does not speak, a word will become a prophecy." I won't talk much to you, but I'll be auspicious with you. Although your wish may not come true on your journey to the west, you can keep you safe. ”
The middle-aged man's face changed suddenly, and he wondered: "Dao Chief, how do you know that I want to go west! Do you really know what is difficult for me?"
Shi Zixuan shook his head and said, "I don't know." I also made it clear, it's just auspicious. ”
Shi Zixuan said this, but the middle-aged man was convinced, and arched his hand: "If the Taoist chief says so, then he will inherit the auspicious words of the Taoist chief." ”
Shi Zixuan was staring at the top of the middle-aged man's head, only to see him say auspicious, the dragon seemed to feel something, opened the dragon's eyes, and nodded slightly at Shi Zixuan.
"Ashamed, ashamed. Lay people and collect the money, may you have a smooth journey. Shi Zixuan handed the money bag back to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man touched the money bag and suddenly smiled: "A scale of gold in exchange for a sentence of auspiciousness, it's worth it, it's worth it." How can I take it back? If I really solve the disaster in the future, I will have the opportunity to meet the Taoist in person, and then I will come to thank him. ”
With an arch of his hand, the middle-aged man put down his money bag and turned to leave.
Shi Zixuan sighed secretly in his heart, and did not chase him, and said straight to Liu Pu: "Liu Shusheng, put the money away." ”
"This is a scale of gold?" Liu Puzhi held the money bag, and he really had a feeling of dreaming.
Shi Zixuan checked the money bag, frowned, and said, "It seems to be more." ”
The scholar and Taoist sold a word and got a pound of gold, and the news was like growing legs, but after a while, it spread throughout the county.
With the first one to eat crabs, there is no shortage of people who follow the trend.
There are a few passing merchants, and they are not short of money, and when they heard this strange thing, they held the money to ask for words, but Shi Zixuan said: "One word a day, today's fate has ended." If you want to ask for words, come back tomorrow. ”
Saying that, let Liu Pu collect the stall and leave.
Everyone looked at each other, puzzled, and said secretly: This person has money or not, isn't his head kicked by a donkey?
On the way back from the stall, when Shi Zixuan passed by the money village, he went in and exchanged some broken silver for gold cakes.
Shi Zixuan handed over the broken silver to Liu Puzhi's hand and said, "This is your word gold, you can put it away." ”
Liu Pu looked at Shi Zixuan in a daze, and stammered: "Dao Chief, what do you mean by this?
Shizi Xuanqi said: "When that person came to buy your words, the price was one or two silver, how to weigh gold?"
Liu Puzhi said without thinking: "How can it not be?
Shi Zixuan said: "A scale of gold is true, but it is not owned by you and me. The man begged me to explain the words, although he asked for something, but this person did not really believe me, but had already made a decision, but asked for peace of mind. Therefore it is not with you, nor with me, and it should not be received by you or me. ”
Liu Puzhi really doesn't know what he feels at this time, is he reluctant, is it agree, or is it difficult to understand?
Fortunately, this scholar is a scholar, and it took him a long time to suppress his greed, nodded, and said: "What the Taoist chief said is reasonable, but what should I do with this gold?"
Holding a gold bag in your arms, the road is downtown, and it's really hot.
Shi Zixuan thought for a while and said, "Originally, I planned to send it to the temple to support the monks, but when I heard my father-in-law say it before, I hesitated. If I don't have a pure mind, if I get all this money and have greed, isn't it because I have broken other people's money vows? ”
Liu Puzhi agreed: "Those monks, all fat oil, what do you give them for?"
Shi Zixuan said with a smile: "Liu Shusheng, not all monks are like that, you don't want to be beaten to death with a stick, that's prejudice." ”
Liu Puzhi laughed twice and said, "Yes, yes." Michijo, I thought of a place. ”
"Where?"
"Sian Chay Zhai. Liu Shusheng said.
"Listening to the name, it seems to be a place to do good deeds, can you tell me carefully?" Shi Zixuan was interested when he heard it.
"This Sian Chay Zhai is a good house opened by a few great benevolent people in the city. It mainly supports those orphans and widows from poor families, and students who cannot afford to study. In disaster years, we will also give porridge to the victims. Liu Puzhi was a little embarrassed and said: "Don't joke about it, Taoist chief, I have nothing now, and I have taken the relief money from Sian Chay Zhai." ”
Shi Zixuan smiled and said, "What's so embarrassing about this." Winning relief from others is not necessarily inferior, and when you have the ability, you can also give back and help more people. ”
After thinking about it, he said, "Listen to you, this Sian Chay Jai is really a place to do good deeds. As the saying goes, good steel is used on the blade, and if this money is given to a greedy person, it is also squandered, so it is better to send it to Sian Chay Zhai to do something practical. ”
Liu Puzhi also nodded in agreement.
In this way, the two went to Sian Chay Zhai. This is on the outskirts of the county, the place is not big, just an ordinary courtyard.
But when Shi Zixuan went in to take a look, there were a lot of people. Most of them are poor families, and there are homeless people who live here and receive three meals a day.
As soon as the two entered the door, they saw a middle-aged man in a white coat walking over and arching his hand: "Liu Shusheng, you are here." But to get this month's money? Wait, now there are a lot of people, I'm going to get a sign for you. ”
He also said to Shi Zixuan: "This Taoist chief, are you here to transform your fate? May I ask how much money you need, first register the Dao number, and then check the pass, you can get 500 yuan a month, and you can receive it three times." ”
Shi Zixuan said secretly: "I only give alms three times, it is for emergency relief, not just giving alms." It's excellent. This Pushan Zhai, even if it is not worthy of the name, it will not be too bad to think about. ”
As soon as he thought of this, Shi Zixuan said: "This layman, I am not here to turn my fate, but I have something to discuss, can I ask the principal to speak?"
The middle-aged man said: "What's the matter with the Taoist chief? My lord is not here today, just tell me if you have something, and the Taoist chief can call me to take care of things." ”
"In that case, Steward Fang, please take a step to speak. ”
Although Steward Fang was curious, he still led the two into the inner room.
Seeing that there was no one else, Shi Zixuan took out his money bag and opened it, and said, "Xiaodao occasionally got a bag of gold, but there was nowhere to use it. I heard that Sian Chay Zhai is a house of true kindness, so I asked the steward to accept this bag of gold so that he could help some poor people. ”
Even the steward Fang, who handled an unknown amount of gold and silver, was a little stunned when he saw a Taoist suddenly take out a bag of gold and hand it over.
Shi Zixuan was afraid that this steward would misunderstand, so he said: "Don't be embarrassed by stewards, this money is coming from the right way, not stolen goods." ”
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I know it's not stolen goods. Steward Fang came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "The Taoist chief sold a pound of gold with one word, and this matter has already spread all over the world." When I heard it before, I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true. ”
Steward Fang's expression was correct, he bowed to the end, and said: "The Taoist chief does not take a penny, he is a true moral person. But I can't take it. My lord had earlier made a rule that this Sian Chay Zhai would only pay and not accept donations. ”
Shizi Xuanqi said: "Why is this? Good people send money, but also send kindness, why don't you accept it?"
Steward Fang smiled bitterly: "The Taoist chief doesn't know, but he received some donations in his early years. But as soon as there is a lot of money, some people have bad intentions, secretly make false accounts, and squander the money themselves. At that time, it was the villain who benefited, but my lord carried the black pot and got a reputation for being a hypocrisy and cheating money. Later, the old man learned from the pain, and only then did he make a decision and set up this rule. ”
When Shi Zixuan heard this, he also sighed: "It's not easy to do good deeds. ”
After thinking about it, he said, "Well, you don't collect money, you always have to collect clothes, etc." I'll go to the clothing store and rice shop, order clothes and food of the same price, and let the store deliver them directly to Sian Chay, what do you think?"
When Steward Fang heard this, he said happily: "It's so good! It's just that it's troublesome to the Taoist chief, and the Taoist chief is really a moral person." ”
Shi Zixuan waved his hand again and again: "No trouble, no trouble." Compared to you, the trail is far behind. Besides, this money is also a good deed by someone else's hand under the guise of me. ”
After negotiating and agreeing, Shi Zixuan and Liu Puzhi left Sian Chay Zhai and went to find grain and clothing stores.
Steward Fang sent the two away, and secretly admired: "In this world, there is really no shortage of virtuous people. ”
Just thinking about it, suddenly someone behind him patted him and said, "Uncle Fang, what are you sighing here alone?"
When he turned around, he saw a beautiful little maid, looking at him puzzled.
"Gu Sui'er, why are you here? Why aren't you serving Miss at home?"
This little maid is the maid Gu Sui'er of the Miss Bai family.
"Miss was grounded, and I ran out secretly. Gu Sui'er stuck out her tongue, grimaced, and said curiously: "Uncle Fang, who are you sending it? Is it a friend of the master?"
Steward Fang shook his head and told Fang Cai about it.
Gu Sui'er was secretly surprised, and said secretly: "Is there really someone who sent a scale of gold to measure a word? But this Taoist person didn't take a penny, but sent it to Shantang, is it really a Taoist person?"
After thinking about it, his heart moved: "Miss is distressed now, and I don't know how to solve it." Since this Taoist priest really has Taoism, why don't you let the young lady also test a word?"
After making up her mind, the little maid went back to the White Gate Mansion and went straight to the young lady's boudoir.
Exactly: the world is unpredictable, and it is difficult to measure oneself. Good fate is tied by a thousand miles, and peers have no chance to part.
