Chapter seven hundred and ninety seventh Ji Dian(1/2)
After a good night's sleep, when he woke up and finished washing, Tang Seng was doing morning lessons, but he was still thinking about last night's dream.
In that dream, they were just farming and living like ordinary mortals, marrying, having children, birth, old age, illness and death. However, the mistress in the picture was A'e, whom she had just met yesterday.
This difference alone was enough for Tang Seng to fall into it.
"Amitabha, sin, sin, sin..."
Tang Monk confessed one after another, but he understood that he had had ordinary thoughts, and he had the intention to suppress them with Buddhist scriptures. However, this thought was too difficult to control. No matter how he chanted sutras, he could not cut it off. Until he gave up the morning class, his mind
A'e's charming smile and every smile in Zhongdu are so charming that I can't let go of them.
"Master, master has had breakfast..."
When he was feeling worried, a voice suddenly came from outside the door. Tang Monk came to his senses, opened the door and saw that it was Mo Yuan.
Mo Yuan stood at the door and said with a smile: "Master, let's have breakfast. Yesterday, my sister-in-law offended a lot of people. I hope you will forgive me."
"Amitabha, what did the donor mean by this?"
Tang's monk said: "Everyone in your house treats the poor monk very kindly. The Taibao saved the poor monk's life. The old lady treated him with courtesy. My younger sister even cooked for the poor monk herself. The poor monk had no time to express gratitude. Why?"
Talk about offending?"
"Master, don't worry. My sister got up early today and picked fresh vegetables. Master has already prepared a meal for her. Master, please move on." Mo Yuan said.
Hearing that A'e was cooking the food himself, Tang Seng couldn't help but feel a surge in his heart. He thought of those slender hands that could conquer the frost and snow, and that peerless face that would make a country beautiful. He thanked him and met with Mo Yuanchao.
Go to the lobby.
Not long after walking, the two of them arrived at the dining place, where the old lady and A'e, who were transformed into dragons, were already there.
Several people bowed to each other, and the great dragon said with a grateful face: "The master is really a god. Last night, my deceased husband asked me in a dream, saying that the master's Dharma was profound and profound. Under the circumstances of his salvation, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was extraordinarily merciful. He was originally because of the massacre."
The wild beasts in the mountains have committed too many crimes and have to suffer in hell for thirty years before they can be reincarnated as humans. But now they have their sins eliminated and their grievances calmed down by the master. They will be reincarnated in the near future. The master is so kind and virtuous, but I really have nothing to repay!
"
As he spoke, the great dragon stood up emotionally and wanted to bow to Tang Monk.
Tang Monk did not dare to accept his courtesy, but he stood up in a hurry, supported him and said: "The old lady said something serious. It is your duty to become a monk to save all living beings, so how can you talk about repaying it? Besides, you and the poor monk can save lives."
Well, it's just a simple task for the poor monk, so the old lady doesn't need to worry about it."
"No matter what, Master, I will definitely repay this kindness!" After the great dragon said this, he immediately looked at Mo Yuan and Chang'e.
Mo Yuan smiled and said: "Master, what my mother said is true. Last night, a certain family also received a dream entrusted by their father. For Master, it may be a small effort, but for us, it is a great kindness.
I have a suggestion, Master, please don’t refuse it.”
"The two donors really don't need to be so polite."
Tang Monk smiled and shook his head and said, "Donor Mo, if you have anything to say, just speak out. I'll just listen attentively."
A hint of joking flashed through Mo Yuan's eyes. He pointed at Chang'e and said, "May I ask Master, what do you think of my sister-in-law?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Monk followed Mo Yuan's finger and glanced at A'e, only to see A'e smile shyly and then lower her head, completely opposite to her lively appearance yesterday.
His heart couldn't help but blurt out: "The female donor has good character and stunning beauty. I'm afraid even the fairies in the Moon Palace can't compare to the female donor Wan Yi."
This is a very high praise. Who is the fairy in the Moon Palace if not Chang'e?
Although Jade Rabbit who was eavesdropping outside knew that it was true, he still couldn't help but feel angry and itchy in his teeth. He couldn't even compare to what was expected. Is this monk blind? What the monks said about the four elements being empty and red and pink skulls seemed to be lies.
Naturally, no one in the hall would take care of her emotions. Mo Yuan followed the script that had been written and said with a smile: "Master thinks that my sister-in-law is good, but that is the best thing. To be honest with you, my sister-in-law has been married once before.
, was also a well-known rich man in the vicinity of Liangjie Mountain. However, the young man was weak and had been sick since childhood. His sister-in-law died on the day of her wedding. The people here said that her sister-in-law killed her husband, so her sister-in-law has never died.
Get married."
Speaking of this, Mo Yuan looked at Tang Monk with a half-smile but said: "If Master Meng doesn't give up, Master will take in his sister-in-law. Although a certain family in this village is not as powerful and luxurious as Chang'an, it still has a good family background. Master and She
Living in the village, my sister must have no worries about food and clothing, but it is not as happy as going to the west and encountering countless demons and sufferings?!"
"This this……"
Upon hearing this, Tang Seng immediately panicked. He never imagined that after just a nap, someone would actually want to recruit him as his son-in-law!
If it had been someone else, Tang Seng would have refused immediately. However, this person was A'e. Tang Seng wanted to refuse, but the words of rejection rolled on his tongue several times and he couldn't say it out!
The great monk is in love...
It's just that he grew up in Buddhism since childhood, was reincarnated by Jin Chanzi, practiced in reincarnations for ten lives, had deep roots in Zen, and profound Buddha nature. At this moment, he was still able to control himself and remember his mission to obtain scriptures. If it were any other god,
Demon, I’m afraid I’ve already nodded in agreement!
Seeing that Tang Monk was hesitating, Mo Yuan winked at Chang'e and said, "Why, Master is not willing?"
"Poor monk...poor monk..." Tang Monk hesitated, unable to give a complete sentence.
Chang'e's beautiful face immediately turned cold. She snorted softly in her nose and said: "Master, don't you look down on me? It's all because of my fate. Even eminent monks like Master do this."
I thought, what’s the point of living? It’s better to die!”
After saying that, he made a gesture to hit the pillar on the side!
"Wait a minute, A'e almsgiver, wait a minute!"
At the critical moment, Tang Monk suddenly shouted loudly, but Mo Yuan, with his quick hands and quick eyes, grabbed Chang'e and pretended to be angry: "You kid, what kind of stupidity have you committed? Didn't the master refuse you yet?!"
"Brother, if the master doesn't agree, doesn't it mean he's rejecting it?!" A layer of mist appeared in Chang'e's pair of water-cut eyes, and the beauty wept. I really felt pity for her, she was so beautiful.
At this moment, Tang Monk forgot all about the Zen mind, Buddha nature, and the salvation of all living beings. He said eagerly: "It's not that the poor monk refused, but because of the talent and appearance of the donor, A'e, he is also a noble man from Tianhuang."
If you are not worthy, I am just a walking monk with nothing, how can you dare to get married to A'e's benefactor?"
"I don't mind if you don't have anything to offer."
Chang'e said: "You are an eminent monk who saved my father from the sea of suffering. You are so kind and virtuous that this little girl cannot repay you. Besides, I am also a person who has suffered a miserable life. I am not as good as the master imagined. Why should you worry about that?"
Panda?"
"Master, look at my sister-in-law taking such initiative. Could it be that Master has a heart of stone?" Mo Yuan assisted from the side.
Tang Monk sighed and said: "I naturally want to stay, but I am still responsible for the important task of obtaining Buddhist scriptures. Your Majesty has ordered me to stay here like this. If Your Majesty knows about it, I am afraid that everyone in your village will be killed."
You have to be implicated by the poor monk."
Traveling to the west to obtain Buddhist scriptures was not only ordered by Guanyin, but also decreed by the King of Tang. These two boundary mountains were still the boundaries of the Tang Dynasty. It was reasonable for Tang Monk to have such concerns.
Mo Yuan said with a smile: "Master, you don't have to worry. You can get married after all the experience. It will only take a few days. After the marriage, let my sister-in-law and the master go on the road together. They will travel a hundred and eight thousand miles to the west."
It's so far away that it's still unknown whether we can reach it in this life. You and your wife are married to each other. If you die halfway, there will be descendants to carry on your legacy. Wouldn't it be wonderful?!"
Tang Seng was immediately attracted by what this scene described. Thinking of being able to go west with this A'e and spend time together day and night, his heart was filled with strange emotions.
He nodded, and just as he was waiting for his answer, a sudden change occurred!
I heard a crazy voice coming from outside the village: "Is there anyone? Is there anyone? The monk came to ask for a drink..."
This voice contained a supreme Buddha power that calmed the mind, and it immediately calmed down all the distracting thoughts in Tang Monk's heart!
Seeing that Tang Seng's eyes were clear again, Mo Yuan and others all frowned. They had been setting up the game all night and were about to come to an end, but they were interrupted by this loud shout. It was really annoying.
"He is not afraid of death..."
Mo Yuan muttered to himself and ordered: "Come here, open the door of the village and invite this master to come in."
"Why are you not afraid of death?" Tang Seng asked puzzledly.
Mo Yuan prevaricated casually: "Wild mountains and wild ridges are infested with wild beasts. This monk is asking for a drink in the early morning. It is obvious that he is a drunkard. He is extremely dangerous in this wilderness. Naturally, he is not afraid of death."
Upon hearing this, Tang Monk deeply agreed. He was most aware of the dangers in the mountains. As soon as he entered the mountains, he had already suffered two life-threatening dangers from demons and insects. If he hadn't been rescued by people before and after, I'm afraid he would have been killed by now.
He buried his bones in the barren mountains.
After several people had eaten for a while, the servant who had been ordered to go out to bring people in came back, followed by a drunken monk.
The monk was wearing a blue monk's robe and a monk's hat, but they were all in tatters and patched, and his whole body was dirty and covered in dirt, making him look sloppy and tight.
He held a broken cooling fan in one hand and a yellow wine gourd in the other. His face was red and his eyes were wandering. Even his steps were staggering. He stood swaying from time to time. He was obviously drunk.
A stern look flashed in Mo Yuan's eyes. He naturally knew the identity of this monk, but it was the mortal identity of the Dragon Subduing Arhat who ranked first among the Eighteen Arhats, Monk Jidian, also known as the Living Buddha Jigong!
Don't think that this guy is just an Arhat, but his true identity is Lord Kasyapa, a direct disciple of Tathagata Buddha!
The allusion of Buddha picking flowers and Kassapa smiling is widely circulated in the three realms. The Buddha-nature of this Venerable Kassapa is so deep and his talent is so high that he can be said to be the third generation of Buddhism.
The leader of Daluo Jinxian has already stepped into the Daluo Golden Immortal!
Of course, after Jin Chanzi retrieved the scriptures in this way, he had the great merits and virtues to protect his body. It is not yet known which status of these two people in Buddhism will be higher or lower in the future. However, at the moment, Kasyapa’s status in Buddhism is not inferior to that of Manjushri.
Of the great virtuous Bodhisattvas.
At this critical moment when Tang Monk was bewitched, Tathagata sent this person, which shows that he had high hopes for him!
"Amitabha, the young monk pays homage to your senior brother. Do you dare to ask him his name?" Tang Monk didn't know what happened to Jigong and felt a little disgusted by his appearance. However, out of courtesy, he still saluted and asked.
The Three Realms are extremely vast, and each of the four continents is difficult to travel throughout a mortal's lifetime. Although the Tang Dynasty was powerful, it only covered a corner of the southern continent. Because of the Buddhist scriptures, Jigong rarely traveled along the Buddhist scripture routes.
It makes sense that Tang Monk didn't know about him because he traveled upstream to preach.
He smiled, waved his broken fan, and said: "The poor monk's name is Ji Dian, so he is polite and courteous..."
"It turned out to be Master Jidian..."
To be continued...
