At this time, Chen Xiaoxu was still preoccupied with what was happening in front of him, as if people often didn't know they were dreaming when they were dreaming, and he didn't realize why he was here.The abbot briefly talked about the current situation, the money and food are currently exhausted, and all the incense money accumulated before has been exchanged for food.After speaking, he was silent for a moment, and said, "I have sent someone to invite Zen Master Huitong of Shuiyue Temple today, he has always liked these golden Buddha statues in my temple, and wants to buy them at a high price, and the money from the sale is all used to cook porridge to save people. ”As soon as the abbot said this, the audience was in an uproar, and they were so shocked that they couldn't speak.On the spot, a monk kowtowed and said, "Master, it's easy to say, this Buddha statue can't be sold, this is the day Lu Yuanwai spent 100 gold to build, donated to my temple, so practice and sell, even if Lu Yuanwai doesn't say, how can it be worthy of people's hard work." ”The abbot said, "Lu Yuanwai donated Buddha statues, originally to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, but now he has sold Buddha statues, in exchange for food, charity to the victims, but also for them to accumulate virtue, what do you know" Another monk complained, "Master is right, but there are so many victims, even if the master sells the Buddha statues, he can save a few" "Can save a day is a day, can save one is one." ”"Master said this, I am afraid that when the disaster comes, those who should starve to death will still starve to death, but the Buddha statue is gone.Besides, on the Xing my temple to open the good fate to help the victims, the water moon temple but still have the spare power to buy Buddha statues, why he does not do good deeds just because since ancient times, the monks and laymen are different, the monks have monk rules, the so-called Buddha has a fateful person, if one person and two people suffer, I monks must not be saved, if the eyes are uneven, fight for their lives to rescue, but now the famine for many years, even if I try my best to do a temple, and can save a few I am equal to this war and disaster year, when the temple is preserved, the continuation of the incense, is to the Buddha door, chanting mantras to knock on the rock, beyond the soul, this is the right reason, Master wants to sell Buddha statues, but let me wait for the future where to worship Buddha is gone, what kind of Zen do you still practice" After he finished speaking, all the monks said yes, even Chen Xiaoxu felt a little reasonable when he heard it, after all, this Buddha statue is everyone's, not anyone's alone, this monk who speaks is also for the incense of Buddhism in the final analysis, besides, Buddhism has the rules of Buddhism, and everything else is easy to say, a temple actually sold the Buddha statue, which is simply a big rebellion against the ancestors of the teacher, which is really unacceptable.When the abbot heard this, he was not angry, but laughed and said, "What is the purpose of cultivating the Buddha, the victims are like locusts, and they really can't be saved.But seeing the disaster victims suffering and starving all over the place, but guarding a pile of clay Buddha statues blindly chanting scriptures, and dare to say that the Buddha of Pudu all living beings is the Buddha above this temple, is it this clay sculpture of iron tires, I wait to bow day and night, worship him and I help the people, is it for life and death, for cause and effect, for doing good, it is not ten thousand laws of nature, the Buddha does good in it and does not think it is good, it is the great good cultivation and not obsessed with the Tao, only for the Great Daoer, etc., needless to say, I have made up my mind, those who stay far away stay, and those who are willing to get out of the way can get out" The monks looked at each other.This abbot chose a few monks, went to the Daxiong Treasure Hall to dismantle the Buddha statue to do good and not think it was good, it was the great good cultivation and not obsessed with the Tao, only for the avenue Chen Xiaoxu was stunned, thinking about these two sentences repeatedly, he felt that there was something in these two sentences, pondered for a long time, seemed to have an understanding, suddenly smelled a fishy smell, came back to his senses, but saw that he didn't know when, the world in front of him had changed, he was under a city gate, a fat monk walked in front of him, walking in the direction of the city gate.The old monk walked to the city and bowed to the city gate, "The old monk Fadu, ask to see the general." ”"The master is hard, and the general is already waiting."
After speaking, the old monk was led in.Chen Xiaoxu followed behind, listening to the monk talking, it was clear that he was the abbot before, but he was a lot fatter, could it be that he was fat Chen Xiaoxu walked a few steps quickly to catch up, and looked at his face, it was a blur again, but Chen Xiaoxu observed for a while and determined that this old monk was not a person from the previous abbot, and his figure and height were too different.He walked with the old monk, only to see that the city was in shambles, with soldiers patrolling and guarding the streets everywhere, and the doors were closed, and there was no one to be seen.The soldiers who took the lead in front chatted with the old monk and introduced the situation in the city, Chen Xiaoxu understood from the sidelines, it turned out that this was Longcheng, the so-called "general", the leader of the peasant army, and led people to capture this city a few days ago, and he was very proud from top to bottom."
Our army is coming, the soldiers and civilians here are dedicated to defense, killing many soldiers of our army, Diao people are hateful, my general is going to slaughter the city, Zen master these you know" Zen master Tao "poor monks are here to dissuade the general. ”The soldier commander smiled and said, "Zen master, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed, my general usually hates people to fake mercy the most, he doesn't listen to persuasion, I'm afraid that even you will be killed."
I advised the Zen master to go back. ”"Life and death are fateful, how can you stop doing things because you are afraid of death."
Chen Xiaoxu followed behind Special Mo and walked to the front of a mansion, this is the inner city, and there is also a city wall several stories high, and there are soldiers everywhere below, and the sound of a woman singing came from the city wall Chen Xiaoxu felt very strange when he heard it, because this singing voice was completely different from his own era, and it was completely different from those songs that imitated the ancient style.The commander of the army stepped forward to report that the Fadu Zen Master was coming, so after a while, the word came down, saying that the general had invited the Fadu Zen Master to go up to the banquet.Chen Xiaoxu also followed, and saw a large table of banquets on the tower of the city gate, with chickens, fish, meat and eggs, and a general with a wide body and fat body and wearing armor was sitting at the table with a golden sword, feasting.To be continued, Maoshan Ghost Hunter t21902181
