Chapter 70 The City God Makes Way
Qingyun, Henan is an important stop in Suyang's practice.
After being decided by the Wheel King as his son-in-law, Su Yang learned of his "fake identity" in Zipa's life and death book. The underworld could find out that "Su Yang" was from Qingyun, Henan, but Su Yang came to verify in person that the real name of "Su Yang" was "Su Ming", and followed the people to the capital.
As a wearer, he naturally knows that he is not "Su Ming".
Later, Su Yang asked for confirmation that Dong Shuangcheng, who lived next door, might know the real situation, but when he met Dong Shuangcheng in his dream, Su Yang was busy doing something else and forgot to ask.
After verifying his identity, Su Yang was an intimately served as the city god in Qingyun for a while. Until Chunyan sent a message and knew that Guanyin had broken off his marriage proposal, he left Qingyun because Su Yang offended the fifth hall master of the underworld, borrowed the sword of Emperor Guan Sheng in Guangping County, and then went to the underworld and killed the original Yan Luo.
Now that he has arrived in Qingyun territory again, Su Yang is also very moved.
It was clear at this time, and some people had already gone to the ground with hoes. They saw nearly a thousand people rushing on the road, and some people were carrying hoes for a while and stopped, looking at the large group of people in front of them.
"Honor."
Why did Yan come in step, smile and graceful figure, look at Su Yang and say, "Let's go..."
"There is Baiyan Mountain in front."
Su Yang pointed at Baiyan Mountain and said, "It is rumored that this is the place where Guanyin Bodhisattva subdue demons. Since we have come here, we will go to the Baiyan Mountain to take a look. I heard that someone has built an inn in Baiyan Mountain, which is specially for people to stay overnight. Let's take a break in Baiyan Mountain during the day."
Baiyan Mountain has erupted by the flames of the earth's veins, and Guanyin Bodhisattva has lowered nectar. Now there are dense branches of trees and lush greenery. The hot spring water mist in the mountains rises, just like a grand scene. Su Yang returns to Baiyan Mountain again, wanting to visit the old place again and go for a walk.
He Yiyan smiled charmingly, and said, "If you want to visit the grand scene, how can I not follow me? But we have a thousand people. If we go up the mountain in the daytime and are in the place of Qingyun Scenic Site, we will inevitably be suspected. The Venerable can go to the Dizang Temple with us first. The journey will be exhausted, and everyone is tired of being trapped. Everyone needs to rest. After settling these people, I will take the Venerable and we will go to Baiyan Mountain together. How about it?"
Su Yang examined He Yiyan, looked at him twice, and smiled and said, "Okay, let's go to Dizang Temple."
There are four temples in Qingyun Mountain: Manjushri, Samantabhadra, Guanyin and Ksitigarbha.
Guanyin Temple was burned in the fire on Baiyan Mountain. Samantabhadra Temple is not far from Chenghuang Temple. Su Yang once killed monks there. Manjusri Temple is in the deep mountains. Su Yang has never been to it. Although this Ksitigarbha Temple is good, the entrance mural of Ksitigarbha depicts the Brahmin girl and Guangmu girl saving her mother. In the mural, hell is vivid and scared that few people go there.
When Su Yang was the City God, he never went to the Dizang Temple, but Su Yang also knew that the Dizang Temple was not a place where dirt was hidden.
He Yiyan nodded with a smile when she heard Su Yang's permission, and said, "Last night we decided to come to Qingyun Mountain, so I knew the people on Qingyun Mountain. Someone had already booked the Dizang Temple for us to rest for a day. There were not many rooms in Dizang Temple, but now it was hot and hot. I lived in the room and felt bored. I and these brothers and sisters were both from poor families and could deal with them in the shade of trees and corridors."
Su Yang didn't say anything and followed He Yiyan toward Dizang Temple.
Luo Shier followed Su Yang closely, fearing that Su Yang would be hooked away by He Yiyan.
Dizang Temple is located on the north of Qingyun, on the left side of the official road.
Su Yang saw the building of Dizang Temple from a distance. He walked closer and saw the full view of Dizang Temple.
The whole body of Dizang Temple is covered with brick and stone structure, and one gate is built with a high and spacious style. Su Yang walked into the gate and saw that the left side of the gate was blocked, with only a corridor on the right, which was filled with light on the other side of the corridor. It should be regarded as the gateway to the inner courtyard of Dizang Temple. The corridor in front of Su Yang is a mural that makes the people of Qingyun Mountain stop.
Brahmin girl, Guangmu girl saves her mother.
This Brahmin girl, Guangmu girl, saves her mother, is a story told to people in the Ksitigarbha Sutra.
The Brahmin girl's mother believed in evil sayings and despised the Three Jewels, so she was sent to the Avici Hell after her death. The Brahmin girl was dedicated to chanting the Buddha's name and knew that her mother did not believe in the Buddha's sayings and would inevitably enter the hell after her death. Therefore, she bought many incense flowers to worship the Tathagata, King Awakening and Dingyi.
Su Yang didn't know who the Tathagata, the King of Awakening Hua Ding and Freedom, was.
In short, it was this Tathagata who was moved by the Brahmin girl and asked the Brahmin girl to see her mother's situation. After the Brahmin girl entered hell, a ghost king greeted her. The ghost king took the Brahmin girl to see the situation in hell one by one. The Brahmin girl wanted to know the whereabouts of her mother, and the Ghost King told her that because you offered to the Tathagata, your mother had ascended to heaven.
The Brahmin girl woke up, and this Brahmin girl was Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
The matter of Guangmu's saving his mother is even more nonsense.
Guangmu's mother fell into hell because her mother ate fish and turtles, cooked or fried, and ate meat in big mouthfuls. Therefore, she was thrown into hell after her death. Guangmu's mother received the Buddha's enlightenment and sold everything she loved in the center of her family, and then sculpted and painted for the Buddha. Then Guangmu's mother came out of hell and was reborn at Guangmu's maid. The mother and daughter recognized each other and regretted it.
So who is this Guangmu Nu? The Buddha said that Guangmu Nu is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
Therefore, when Su Yang understands these stories, he feels very funny when he sees the mural. Even if the hell inside is vivid, it almost makes Su Yang laugh.
According to the three seals of Dharma that Tathagata gave Su Yang, this "Dikksitigarbha Sutra" is a false sutra.
Even if "I hear this", it cannot be fulfilled.
What the whole scripture conveys is how to protect the interests of monks and how to bring benefits to monks.
"ah……"
When He Yiyan saw these murals, she seemed to be frightened and leaned into Su Yang's arms.
Luo Shier stretched out his hand and stopped He Yiyan coldly.
"The temple has no century of life, and the corridor should be immortal."
Su Yang saw the words opposite the corridor and pronounced them out loud.
"Amitabha."
The Buddha's name came from the other side of the corridor, and an old monk said, "The person who came to paint this painting back then was an old monk. This monk was punished by the Sei for three years because of his sins during his lifetime. After he was reincarnated, he began to learn Buddhism. This mural was left by him at that time. With the blessing of the Buddha, it was as hard as iron and will not be damaged for a thousand years."
An old monk appeared opposite the corridor, wearing a cassock and looking wrinkled in his face. He could not tell the difference in his current age for a while, but what the old monk said made Su Yang laugh.
He reached out and knocked on the painting wall. Su Yang smiled and said to the old monk: "Master, do you know Wu Daozi?"
The old monk looked at Su Yang and nodded, saying, "I naturally know that Wu Daozi was from the Tang Dynasty. He has great achievements in Buddhist and Taoist murals. All the murals left behind are priceless treasures."
Su Yang nodded, reached out and knocked on the mural, and said to the old monk: "Wu Daozi is just an ordinary person. His paintings do not have the blessing of Buddha's power, but they can still last for thousands of years and be immortal. Do you know the reason?"
The old monk shook his head. He had never seen Wu Daozi's murals, so he could not guess it.
Su Yang smiled and said, "Wu Daozi used yellow sand to pulp the walls to cast the walls. Therefore, the murals will not be damaged for a long time, just like these two murals in Dizang Temple."
In front of Su Yang, these supernatural abilities that show the "Buddha" can be seen through at a glance, and because Su Yang doesn't like these two murals, he directly exposes them.
After hearing Su Yang's words, the old monk knew that he had been exposed, and was both ashamed and retreated outside.
Su Yang and his men walked straight through the corridor and walked towards the Dizang Temple.
He Yiyan's eyes were cold behind Su Yang and Luo Shier. She was not a silly white sweet person like Luo Shier. She could be brainwashed by the teachings of the White Lotus Sect. After entering the White Lotus Sect, He Yiyan understood what the White Lotus Sect should do, and the White Lotus Sect leader Xu Hongru told her about her plans.
Such as the appearance of a king appears in the mirror, which was planned by Xu Hongru for himself earlier, so he repeatedly talked about this to the people and believers of the White Lotus Sect.
He Yiyan knew that the "Maitreya" of the White Lotus Sect was artificial, so when the Maitreya Venerable came to the world, He Yiyan naturally doubted that he wanted to approach Su Yang several times and find out the details, but Luo Shier interfered in it, which made her not do her best.
Today I have to question who you are.
Walking through the corridor, He Yiyan saw many mud statues placed in the Dizang Temple. Looking at these mud statues, they were the statues of the City God, the judge of civil and military affairs, and the ghosts. For some reason, these statues were not placed in the City God Temple, but were placed here.
These god statues are all tall, and they blocked the road directly into the Ksitigarbha Hall so that only one person could pass through.
He Yiyan frowned and felt that it was inconsistent. When he was ordering someone to move all the statues of the Chenghuang Temple away, He Yiyan saw a strange scene.
Whether it is the statue of the City God or the judge of civil and military affairs in the City God Temple, these clay statues naturally gave up a way in front of Su Yang. Originally, this road could only be tolerated, but now the road is spacious. He Yiyan can clearly see that Su Yang did not use any magic power, but the statue of the City God naturally moved.
Su Yang looked calm and walked directly through the path given by the city god. He walked into the Zen room inside in three steps. In his opinion, there was nothing to be surprised about the giving way to the statue.
... Could this person be indeed a god?
He Yiyan is knowledgeable and has never seen such an odd image. She was originally full of suspicion of Su Yang, but now she is beginning to doubt herself.
