Chapter 7 Buddhas Birthday, why not call it Prosperity?

"Amitabha, with the Heavenly Protector here, we will definitely be able to protect the Buddha this time!"

At this moment, Huiming was extremely grateful that the person next to her was standing with them.

"This precious armor will indeed give me the power to fight against the Wolf Demon Lord, but when the magic circle fails in two days and the monsters outside swarm in, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive alone."

Xu Taiping said worriedly.

At present, all he can think of is to escape with the Buddha and retreat while fighting.

But the risk of doing so is extremely high. Once surrounded by monsters, it will be difficult to escape.

"There is nothing to worry about, Lord Protector of Heaven."

Abbot Huiming smiled when he heard this, then took out a dead branch from his sleeve and handed it to Xu Taiping and continued:

"After the magic circle is opened, the Heavenly Protector only needs to throw this Bodhi branch onto the small river at the entrance of the temple, and let it turn into a single-plank bridge spanning both ends of the small river."

"What's the use of doing this?"

Xu Taiping was puzzled.

"This single-plank bridge is a temple-protecting instrument left by the first abbot of Pilu Zen Temple. As long as the single-plank bridge is erected and the monks in the temple recite the Bodhi Heart Sutra in unison, outsiders who want to enter the temple can only

You can cross that single-plank bridge."

"At that time, the Heavenly Protector only needs to stay on the single-plank bridge."

Abbot Huiming explained to Xu Taiping with a smile.

"There are actually such magical weapons in this world?"

Xu Taiping was a little surprised.

When the abbot Huiming heard this, he was moved and said:

"Amitabha, on behalf of Master Huiming, I would like to thank Lord Protector of Heaven for your appreciation."

Hearing these words, Xu Taiping got goosebumps all over his body.

He always felt that even if he spat casually now, the old monk would find it fragrant.

"Wow!……"

At this moment, a baby's cry suddenly sounded in the temple.

"Amitabha

Buddha, Buddha’s son is finally born!”

Upon hearing this cry, the abbot Huiming suddenly clasped his hands together and said loudly with excitement on his face.



This night.

In a hidden Zen room in the backyard of Pilu Zen Temple.

"Abbot Huiming, both of us are illiterate, how about you give the child a name?"

A plain-looking village woman, holding a baby with a wrinkled face, looked at Abbot Huiming expectantly.

"Yes, Abbot Huiming, we are all rough people and we can't get a good name."

A barefooted man next to the village woman scratched his head and said with some restraint.

The man is an honest man, and his hands are covered with calluses, which he can tell from years of farm work.

"Then why not call..."

Huiming, who was about to speak, suddenly stopped his voice, then looked at Xu Taiping with surprise on his face and said:

"Master Heavenly Protector, could you please give me a name for my child?"

"ah?"

Xu Taiping scratched his head.

It's okay if you ask him to do other things, but when it comes to naming, it's really difficult for him.

"Master Heavenly Protector, do you have any difficulties? Or does the ancient Buddha Kasyapa have other expectations for this Buddha?"

Seeing Xu Taiping's hesitation, Na Huiming suddenly became nervous, and her voice was trembling when she spoke.

Seeing this, Xu Taiping knew that the old monk must be thinking nonsense again, so he quickly waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, let me think about it."

Upon hearing this, Abbot Huiming breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded repeatedly and said:

"The name of a Buddha is of great importance. Heavenly Protector, please think about it carefully."

But Xu Taiping was a little confused at this time.

, he couldn't think of a good name after much thought, but just when his eyes fell on the night outside the window, he suddenly had an idea:

"Why don't you just call Ye Lai."

Upon hearing this name, both the village woman and the farmer frowned, as if they didn't like the name very much.

However, when Abbot Huiming heard the name, his eyes shone with gold, and then he whispered excitedly:

"Very good, very good, this is a very good name!"

Then he excitedly explained to the couple:

"According to legend, in the dark Jiuyuan, the only thing that can shine is a little flower called night flower. The monsters in Jiuyuan don't like this night flower the most, but they have exhausted all methods, but they can't get rid of it.

This night the flowers have been completely removed."

"Our Buddha, like the flower that comes at night, will become the only light in the world that can protect the world when the demonic realm comes."

At the end of the story, the abbot Huiming was so moved that he actually shed tears.

Xu Taiping, however, looked confused and said secretly:

"I just think that since he was born at night, it's more appropriate to call him at night. Why are there so many words?"

Hearing Xu Taiping's thoughts about Fairy Lingyue, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"We... we still think it's better to call it Wangcai."

"Yes, I also think it's good to call it Wangcai!"

Abbot Huiming's impassioned speech did not make the couple change their minds, and they still felt that the name Ye Lai was not suitable.

In the end, under the temptation of the abbot to teach the children to read for free, the couple finally accepted the name Ye Lai, but at the same time they also retained the name "Wangcai" as the nickname of the Buddhist disciple.

"Wangcai, my prosperous wealth, I don't care if you are a Buddhist or not, you are my prosperous wealth, hehe..."

"Me too

of."

"That's impossible to say."

"You bitch, there are so many people here, don't talk nonsense."

"You are mean to me again!"

"Master Huiming, look, he is cruel to me, and I am the mother of your Buddha!"

Before going out, the couple suddenly had a quarrel, and the abbot Huiming had to act as peacemaker again and began to persuade them earnestly.

Seeing this scene full of human fireworks, Xu Taiping's heart suddenly felt inexplicably warm, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth unconsciously.

"Sister Lingyue, I suddenly feel that the name Wangcai is very good."

He stretched and walked out of the meditation room.

"Compared to becoming a Buddha, I think parents all over the world should prefer to let their children become carefree and prosperous."

Fairy Lingyue agreed.



Two days later.

The magic circle of Pilu Temple began to become loose.

Dozens of cracks have appeared on the dome.

Obviously, the monsters outside the temple also noticed the birth of the Buddha.

But that afternoon, Pilu Temple did something that puzzled the demons outside the temple - it opened the door of the temple and sent out a young man wearing pitch black armor.

This young man is naturally Xu Taiping.

"call……"

Looking at the group of demons on the other side of the river, Xu Taiping took a long breath and threw out the bodhi branch in his hand.

"boom!"

In just a moment, the bodhi branches turned into a single-plank bridge, spanning the river.

Immediately, Xu Taiping slammed his saber Duanshui on the ground and shouted loudly at the demons on the opposite side:

"Those who want to kill the Buddha should first ask about the knife in my hand!"
