It stands to reason that if I met the guide my father left for me, and he was such a Taoist who seemed like a god, I should be happy, but I couldn't be happy. As mentioned before, the Taoist priest
The appearance of Zhao Jianguo once again disrupted my mother's previous speculation about my father, making me think that everything was caused by the behind-the-scenes pushers. Now the possible focus has been returned to my father. When Zhao Jianguo left, I was indeed still young.
But even if a child's impression of his father is biased, it shouldn't be to such an extent. Is that lawless Kuangren Zhao really this resourceful and ruthless man who can predict twenty years?
I am very unfamiliar with such a father.
I even think that a person like him only knows some demons and monsters. The fifth uncle with the title of director of the Chinese Taoist Association, and the wise Taoist priest now. Such a group of smart people are plotting. Could it be that I
Does such a second-generation ancestor who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun really want to get involved? Even if he does get involved, what can I do?
I really don’t want to be like a dizzy grasshopper, searching everywhere, but I find that I have changed from simply wanting to find my father who has been missing for twenty years to wanting to find everyone.
I am eager to understand everything. Yes, I am curious. I want to know whether they are dead or alive, and what happened to them. This is like a suspense novel, which makes me want to put it down. But I just can’t watch it.
If there is any clue, the person behind the scenes that my eldest and second brothers are trying to guard against has not appeared yet, and the Taoist priest in front of me seems to know a lot. What can I gain?
I asked him, my father asked you to show me the way, which way?
"The road ahead."
The Taoist priest still spoke concisely. At this time, not only Zhu Kaihua, but also Zhang Kaixuan, who had always been steady, couldn't help it and said: Master, please stop being so pretentious. Can you be more specific?
"Zhao Jianguo said that if Zhao Sanliang comes twenty years later, he will be brought to the same road they took. If he does not come, he will destroy that road."
I asked eagerly: "Which way?"
The Taoist priest stood up and opened the curtain that had been hanging on the wall. As the curtain was opened, what came into view was a statue, a statue that once puzzled us and guided us to Dunhuang.
A statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva holding flowers and laughing at all living beings.
This realistically carved statue is far more impressive than that drawing, but the key point of that drawing is more clearly expressed in the statue. This is not a quiet and peaceful Buddhist statue that saves all living beings. Ksitigarbha
Bodhisattva Wang is indeed sneering, facing all sentient beings with a sneer.
The Taoist priest pointed at the statue of Ksitigarbha and asked us, do we know who he is?
We all nodded together. Who doesn’t know Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?
The Taoist priest asked again, do you know his story in Buddhism?
They were all at a loss. My father originally wanted me to study and become a scholar. In the end, I failed to study. However, I am indeed the most ink-smelling person in my family. I didn’t learn much from the book class.
, but I am quite fascinated by weird and strange things. I have also seen the story of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in Buddhism in an isolated book, but it was an ancient book and the text was very unfamiliar, so I only read it.
I understand a general idea. The general idea is that there are four great masters under Sakyamuni Tathagata, Guanyin the Great Compassion, Manjushri the Great Wisdom, Samantabhadra the Great Prayer, and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is the "Great Wish". And his main merits in Buddhism
, which are the two sentences we often hear now, "If hell is not empty, I will never become a Buddha" and "If I don't go to hell, who will?"
At this time, I answered the Taoist priest. It had nothing to do with showing off knowledge, it was just a simple answer. After listening to the Taoist priest, he seemed to be quite satisfied and nodded. He slowly said: There is Ksitigarbha in Buddhism, and he vows to influence all the people in the eighteen levels of hell. I converted to Buddhism. In Taoism, there is a spiritual treasure god who created a sutra to save people and save thousands of lonely souls. They have different paths, but they all reach the same destination. They are all for ghost things. I don’t know why you came. You only think that I know your purpose. Have you ever Have you thought about it, I also know how you were led here?
After saying that, the Taoist priest looked at us and smiled meaningfully.
What draws us here?
This sentence means so much!
But since I received the first letter.
We can also start from the tomb of Li Zhongzhi.
We can also start with the Buddhist painting my father left in the village at the foot of Yulin Mountain. What does this Taoist priest refer to?
Seeing that none of us answered, the Taoist priest added: Thousands of Yin soldiers crossed the desert, took the path to the Yang world, and disappeared into Leiyin Temple. Could it be that those Yin soldiers led you here?
The thing about us being chased by thousands of troops is still vivid in my mind. The thing was so weird that I couldn't imagine what kind of existence such a large-scale thing comparable to an army was. I even comforted myself for a while, that was just a dream. When the sun rises, all the soldiers and horses will turn into bubbles.
But the Taoist priest asked, weren't we led here by thousands of Yin soldiers?
Why did we come to Leiyin Temple?
That was indeed because of those underworld soldiers who almost killed us! At first, I had respect for this Taoist priest, but I also didn’t believe it. Growing up under the glory of the Party, we are indeed not too cold towards the idealism of the older generation, but Now, I have nothing but sincere admiration for this Taoist priest, he knows too much!
I almost trembled and said to the Taoist priest, Immortal, please stop playing tricks on us. If you have anything to say, you can finish it in one breath. Don’t you Taoists believe in the eternal light? I will set one up for you another day and respect it every day. Please Isn’t it enough for you to ascend during the day?
The Taoist priest looked at me with a very meaningful look in his eyes, and then said slowly, "I have something to say to Donor Zhao alone. Is it convenient for others to avoid it?"
When Zhu Kaihua heard that he was going to drive people away, he immediately became unhappy. At this juncture, how could I let him scold the Taoist priest? What if he offended the Taoist priest and stopped saying anything? I quickly stopped him who was about to get angry. He cast another look at Zhang Kaixuan. Zhang Kaixuan, who was like a human spirit, immediately understood and said to Zhu Kaihua: "Old Zhu, let's go out first."
Zhu Kaihua is actually an outsider in our team. He is a mercenary. He is just a bit too unruly, but he is also very kind. We did not regard him as an outsider. Now we both speak. , no matter how incompetent he was, he walked out muttering. When he reached the door, he turned around and yelled at me, "Xiao Sanliang, don't be deceived by this old man who is pretending to be a ghost." , if he refuses to say it later, I will want to see if it is his mouth or my fist that is stronger."
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this. This guy has this temper, but he definitely doesn't have any bad intentions. He doesn't have any deep grudge against the Taoist priest. He just resents the Taoist priest for saying something he didn't understand and making him look embarrassed. When they all went out, the whole room was filled with only The Taoist priest and I were left, as well as the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva statue with a ferocious face and a sneer at the people. I said to the Taoist priest, there are no outsiders in the Immortal family now, can you tell me what you have to say?
The Taoist priest smiled and said to me softly: "Just a few days ago, I met your two brothers."
I was shocked and asked quickly, "Where are they now? Nothing happened?"
The Taoist priest said: They are already waiting for you on the road. As for what happened, I don’t know. I was just entrusted by your father to wait for Zhao Sanliang twenty years ago. A few days ago, I was entrusted by your second brother to give you a
Explanation: I can’t say some things in front of them because your second brother said that the people traveling with you are not reliable.
The people traveling with me were not reliable. Now I was confused. What did my second brother mean? I thought that he was always on guard against the mastermind behind my father and his group. Could he be referring to me?
Is there anyone among Zhu Kaihua, Zhang Kaixuan, and Bai Jin who is unreliable? My second brother is not a person who is aimless. He must have his reasons for leaving such words. Then, of course, I can exclude the four of us, and the rest
Of the three, who is unreliable?
I nodded to the Taoist priest and said, "Thank you, God. I will be more careful, but I don't know. My second brother asked you to give me an explanation. What do you mean?
"From the beginning of Zhao Jianguo's journey, you can ask me all your questions."
Hearing what he said, I couldn't help but be overjoyed, but when the Taoist priest said this, I even found that I was so nervous that I didn't know how to speak. It's like you have always coveted a beautiful woman, but you really stripped this beauty naked.
I threw you on the bed, and you didn’t even know where to start. I sorted out my thoughts, and asked from the beginning. With Yulinshan and his party, I already knew that my father’s original purpose was just to be the emperor who would take over the world as soon as he mounted his horse.
They also got the Shangma Stone. They could have retired with success or been killed and silenced. They just got something else in Li Zhongzhi's tomb, so they disappeared later. Now I want to ask Taoist priests, where must they come from?
I started to ask, so I asked: My father, what on earth did he encounter in the tomb of Li Zhongzhi in Yulin Mountain?
The Taoist priest looked at me and slowly said, "I don't know what I am doing."
Damn your ancestors! I almost blurted out, but then I thought about it, don’t we still have something to ask for? Moreover, the thing my father got caused the whole group of them to disappear collectively for twenty years. It must be something extraordinary.
, and the Taoist priest also said before that he was just an acquaintance with my father, so it was normal for my father not to tell him. I endured it and asked: Where are my father and his group now?
The Taoist priest looked at me strangely and still said: I don’t know.
I was almost gritting my teeth and continued to ask: Are my father and others still alive?
"I don't know."
"You don't know a damn thing about it, and you dare to let me ask you all my questions? Didn't you know everything when we first came here? You know both Zhao Jianguo twenty years ago and Zhao Sanliang twenty years later.
How come you don’t know anything now?!”
I finally couldn't help but cursed out, this Taoist priest is so fucking fucked, you don't know what kind of big-tailed maggot you are pretending to be, you asked me to ask you everything, I asked you ecstatically, and you said you again
I don’t know, aren’t you fucking teasing me?
After being scolded by me, the Taoist priest still smiled tepidly. In my eyes just now, he was still a fairy-like Taoist. Now, no matter how I look at him, he is just pretending to be a fool. He is very shameless. He said again: "I don't know, I don't know."
You know it but you don’t know it, you don’t know it but you don’t know it. Why should Donor Zhao be angry? Since I want to tell you the matter, I have to tell you over there.
I said yes, you said, you know what to say, pick what I want to hear, I am all ears.
"Actually, Zhao Jianguo and I are just acquaintances. Twenty years ago, I was just a young Taoist priest on Longhu Mountain. The reason why I came to Leiyin Temple was because my master's master's master once set up a dojo here.
, Buddhism and Taoism are fighting against each other, fighting against Zen, fighting against mind, fighting against the world, and fighting against all living beings. In the end, there is no way to escape the word "fight". My ancestor set up the great formation of Zhoutian here, which is also a battle with Buddhism. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva will use
The power of sentient beings' thoughts can destroy the Yin soldiers. My ancestor wants to use the thirty-six heavenly gangs and the seventy-two earth evils to destroy the corpse evil. He is fighting for the fate of the two families for hundreds of years. Which one is stronger and which one is weaker?"
