Chapter 1 Decent people in the lascivious temple
The sun is like fire, and the fire is golden.
A good mountain, a broken temple on the mountain that no longer has a beautiful scenery.
......
"Three or two peach blossoms outside the bamboo, the prophet of the plumbing duck in the spring river. ”
In a small house on the mountain, the sound of reading poetry books came from the sound.
Looking through the open window, this is a young man in a green shirt, with clear eyebrows, and a slightly thin body.
He happened to read this poem, but on his young and immature face, beads of sweat rolled down, and he couldn't help laughing, "This sentence is out of place, it is the height of summer, the sun is like fire, it should be 'the red sun is scorching like fire, and the noda rice is half scorched'." ”
Luo Jiang is fourteen years old this year, can read and write, and can make a poem, he should be a person with ink in his chest.
That's right, he is the eleventh year of Emperor Qinxi of the Great Qin Kingdom. His background is not low, but it is just some complicated things in the middle that led to his current situation.
Daqin is prosperous and prosperous, the land is vast, vast and broad, with a population of tens of thousands, and it is the upper state of the Heavenly Empire. Luo Jiang, the current ideal is to gain fame and fame, be a good parent official, and then put pen to paper, get military merits, and be a person who makes meritorious contributions and makes speeches.
Quietly closing the poetry book, he picked up another thick book on the table, but it was a "Zhonga Han Sutra". This is a Buddhist scripture, but Luo Jiang is not a believer in Buddhism, but the place where he is staying now is a monastery, and there is nowhere to borrow books, so he has to read the Buddhist scriptures.
This "Zhonga Han Sutra", as well as two other Buddhist scriptures and a monk's note, was found by Luo Jiang in a broken hall in the temple. According to the records above, the temple has also been glorious, with a large number of titles, thousand-year-old temples, running horses and lighting incense, pilgrims like dragons, and bright all night......
Even earlier, the monastery also produced a master of cultivating Buddhism, who could go to heaven and earth, and was a sect of cultivation, and there were countless secret books for practicing boxing and cultivation stored in the library.
After reading it, Luo Jiang was moved and wanted to go into the library to take a look, but he had been suffering from no chance. The only thing that is locked in the main hall of the temple is probably the library pavilion.
However, he was not too disappointed when his mood cooled down, because most of the records were false, the library had been turned over by robbers, and Mao had not found half of it.
Reading Buddhist scriptures in desperation, Luo Jiang doesn't think it's a waste of time, he is not a dead reader, he knows the truth that the Tao is the same way, and draws inferences from one another, even if it is a Buddhist scripture, you can also understand the truth of the scriptures. You must know that many Buddhist monks are not inferior to some great Confucians in the imperial court in terms of learning. His father was a scholar of Bunkaku from the second rank in the court, and he greatly respected a monk.
To this day, Luo Jiang also read Buddhist scriptures for three months, and couldn't help but sigh, "Buddhism seems to be full of elm pimples and a tendon in the brain, but in fact, it is not." I don't dare to say anything else, just these people who compile Buddhist scriptures, they are more refined than monkeys, and they are very good at catering to the thoughts of the imperial court. ”
He held the pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote the word "fool" on the paper in front of him.
"Whether it is the imperial court or Buddhism, it can be summed up in four words, 'fooling the people'. Confucianism says that 'the monarch's power is bestowed by heaven', and under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. Loyalty is the 'common way in the world'. Confucianism catered to the emperor's thoughts, so it has been Confucianism since ancient times.
Buddhism's ability to fantasize and deceive people are much more superb than Confucianism. Buddhism believes that everything in reality is suffering, that is, 'the sea of suffering is boundless'. In life, there are birth, old age, sickness, death, resentment, love, parting, unwanting, and five extracts and eight sufferings. The cause of suffering is not the oppression of the imperial court, but 'karma', and the way to escape suffering is to endure and practice in order to achieve 'nirvana' and thus get rid of the sea of suffering. And there are also the sayings of 'twelve karmas' and 'karma', which are all accepted and used by the imperial court.
It's no wonder that the imperial court supports Buddhism!"
Luo Jiang rubbed the hard cover of the Buddhist scriptures in his hand, and said to himself: "If you study the Buddhist scriptures thoroughly, it will also cater to the thoughts of the imperial court, and it is not difficult to raise people and jinshi." ”
He folded the bookmark and saw an allusion that the Buddha had stepped on the mud when he was preaching, but when he pulled out his feet, he was still as clean as new, as if the mud had not touched the Buddha's body at all. Therefore, combined with the characteristics of the lotus flower out of the mud and not stained, the lotus flower is like the Dharma.
Seeing this allusion, Luo Jiang suddenly felt deeply, put down the Buddhist scriptures for the time being, stood up with a thin body, looked out from the window, jumped over a vegetable field, and could see the main temple on another mountain peak in the distance.
The general temple gives people the impression that it is pure, quaint, melodious bells, temples one by one, and big trees are shady. In the meantime, several small novices hold brooms to sweep the leaves, incense curls in front of the temple, monks chant sutras, and pilgrims come in an endless stream, praying for blessings and prayers.
But the temple that fell in Luo Jiang's eyes was contrary to common sense, there were many plump women in revealing clothes in the temple, women with bare arms and legs and even half-pulled breasts, and even more, a majestic monk was intercourse with these women...... A smoky scene.
Outsiders must be dumbfounded when they see it, and mistakenly think that they have walked into the place of Fengyue.
"In a temple like this, I'm not stained by the mud, right?"
Luo Jiang smiled bitterly, but then hatred flashed in her eyes, "That slut, as the eldest lady in the family, hates me, but she can't kill me openly, let alone want me to affect her status by taking the fame exam, in order to corrupt me, but she has taken great pains." ”
Speaking of which, all this smoky miasma in the temple is caused by him.
He was sent to the temple by the eldest lady of the family, on the grounds that it was close to the scientific examination, and the temple was quiet and he could prepare for the exam with peace of mind.
Along the way, Luo Jiang was guessing what kind of medicine was sold in the eldest lady's gourd. At first, I was worried that the eldest lady would send someone to kill her halfway, but I don't think about it so blatantly, you must know that although his father is not at home, there is still a righteous grandfather at home. If the eldest lady really has the mind to ignore all this, there are more opportunities to start, and there is no need to go through a series of things so troublesomely.
It wasn't until he came to the temple that Luo Jiang knew about the conspiracy of the eldest lady.
This temple is called Fawang Temple, and it has long been defeated to the extreme, with only about 20 monks and half of the pilgrims gone. Coming to the temple with Luo Jiang were ten charming women, these ten women could be played with by the monks in the temple, the purpose was to corrode Luo Jiang's mind under the influence of their ears and eyes.
A young man with strong blood will not resist this temptation.
The eldest lady holds the most hatred, but a mongrel who is a concubine can overpower her son, so that Luo Jiang can fall and become ambitious, so that she can solve her hatred the most, and if she is scolded by others, the final reason is that Luo Jiang herself is not angry, and no one will blame her.
Luo Jiangshang remembered that in the first three days when the ten women came to the temple, they and more than 20 fat monks did not stop tossing for almost a moment. No matter where Luo Jiang goes, all he hears in his ears is obscenity, and all he sees in his eyes is the Living Spring Palace, if it weren't for his tenacity and desperate support, I'm afraid he would have become one of them.
If I am obsessed with the affairs of men and women, where can I still have the heart to prepare for the exam, I am afraid it will be difficult to walk. "Luo Jiang has dabbled in miscellaneous books and strange stories, so he knows more than scholars who only read sage books.
"Let's survive under the conspiracy of the eldest lady for the time being, and after the scientific examination, I will be qualified to be an official, and with my father's sponsorship, I will be able to rise to the top, and I will be one step closer to my ideal. At that time, the sky was high and the birds could fly, and there was no need to live in the shadow of that slut all the time. ”
Luo Jiang pushed open a crooked door and walked out, in front of the house was a large vegetable field, planted with seven or eight kinds of green vegetables, and it was growing well.
"Who said that there is no use for scholars, and I grow good vegetables. Luo Jiang laughed at himself, somewhat helpless in his words.
The poor people in the monastery are eager to move the Buddha statue out of the temple and sell it, so how can he let him live in vain? He also has another identity, that is, the "vegetable head" of this Fawang Temple.
The temple is by no means as simple as outsiders think, only the abbot, the monk, or the little novice who sweeps the floor, and there are many other positions, such as the deputy temple in charge of the accounting, the straight year in charge of farming, the knowledge bath in charge of the bath, and the knowledge of the incense in the hall...... And so on, all kinds of positions, no less than two dozen positions.
And the "vegetable head" is specialized in growing vegetables, belonging to the "straight year" management, when there are many people, it is still a small leader, and when there are few people, they can only manage themselves.
At present, the remaining 20 or so monks in Fawang Temple are all eating vegetables grown by Luojiang, of course, the meat eaten by these wine and meat monks is not under his control.
The temple is now in dilapidation, from a few thousand monks to only about 20 people, and has degenerated to eat meat and drink wine, and be idle. In the past, it was just a kiln in the city, but now it is good and solved directly in the temple.
Looking around, it is said that dozens of surrounding mountains are within the scope of Howang Temple, but now the other peaks are occupied by bandits and even ruffians. Only the main peak and the mountain where Luojiang grows vegetables remain.
If it weren't for the fact that Howang Temple was still famous in the official palace, I am afraid that the only two remaining peaks would also be occupied.
If the patriarch of the temple of Fawang Temple sees today's scene, I don't know if the first Buddha will be angry and the second Buddha will ascend to heaven. Luo Jiang was quite gloating with "regret".
At this time, a big monk with a fat head and big ears, naked clothes, and a shy stomach staggered over under the mountain.
Luo Jiang's face immediately sank, he didn't have a good impression of any of the monks of Fawang Temple. This name seems to be called Yuanshan, especially not a good thing.
"Ha Luha, it's so refreshing! The woman sent by your wife is so delicious that it makes the Buddha very happy. ”
The big monk's trouser belt was not fastened, Da Lu walked up the mountain with a smile, looked at Luo Jiang and said: "Why do you bother, a showman is farming here, and even the Buddha doesn't do this kind of rough work." ”
"Hmph!" Luo Jiang snorted coldly and ignored it.
"Stinky virtue. ”
Monk Yuanshan disdainfully said to Luo Jiang again: "In this way, do you have any sisters and sisters at home, bring them over and the Buddha once, and the Buddha will be gracious, so you don't have to grow vegetables here." ”
"What did you say?"
Luo Jiang suddenly became angry, clenched his fists, and stared at Yuan Shan angrily.
Yuan Shan also saw Luo Jiang's angry appearance, but instead of restraining himself, he showed an even more disdainful expression, with an expression of "You are the one who scolds, how can you do Na Buddha?" There is no power to bind the chicken, and it is useless to be a scholar.
Luo Jiang saw a hoe on the ground, and copied it up, like an angry beast, glaring at Yuanshan. That vulgar word stung him all at once, and he wanted to kill this fat-headed and big-eared monk immediately.
Although Luo Jiang has no sisters and sisters, he can't be so humiliated. Even the books of the sages teach that the reader can understand the current affairs and seek perfection, but must not be humiliated.
"Ha Lu Ha. ”
Yuan Shan seemed to see something interesting, and he didn't look at Luo Jiang who was holding a hoe in his eyes at all, Da Lu laughed, and then his face suddenly flashed, "What's the matter? Buddha hasn't used his fists and kicks against you, you are in heaven? Dare to take a hoe to me, I think you are itchy." With your small body, the Buddha will poke it down with one finger, you dare to call me out?"
As he spoke, Yuan Shan strode forward and stretched out his big hand like a fan, and Luo Jiang suddenly felt a wave of oppression coming to his face. He can only hold the hoe in his hand tightly to bring a sense of security.
Luo Jiang felt like a flat boat in a storm, swaying under the momentum of the good and evil monks, and could be overturned at any time. Only when he was in the scene did he understand that what "the big mountain collapses in front of and the face does not change", if there is no strength to support it, it is all nonsense. I have experienced first-hand what it means to "show only when I meet soldiers, and I can't explain it reasonably." ”
"You really dare to do it to me, you are not afraid of the law of the Great Qinguo to rule you!"
Luo Jiang shouted suddenly, mentioning all the spirits, and his voice was full of emotion.
Luo Jiang's sudden voice was violent, which made Yuanshan stunned, but after a while, he laughed indifferently and said: "Don't bully the Buddha is a rough person, the law of the Great Qinguo Buddha still knows the Tao, and if you beat a scholar with a meritorious reputation, you will be beaten with thirty boards and imprisoned for three years." ...... But you can't blame me if you rolled down the mountain yourself, can you? ”
"Hmph, why don't you try it?"
Luo Jiang was still full of emotion, not afraid, "Don't forget, you have been eating and drinking well for the past three months, and those ten women are all provided by a slut." In other words, it's all because of me, master! She didn't dare to kill me, so she put me here to corrode, there is a reason for this, if you hurt me, do you really think you can bear the consequences?"
At this moment, Yuan Shan was really stunned, thinking about it, what Luo Jiang said was not right, the person who sent a pair of resources to the temple was also to corrupt Luo Jiang, it was inconvenient to kill this kid, there must be other reasons, and he still didn't want to be troublesome. Forget it, let this kid go.
Yuanshan stopped and waved his hand, "The Buddha is not as knowledgeable as you today. I'm here today to inform you that you're going to the library today, sorting out the books in them, and putting them in separate yards. ”
