Nearly a hundred years after the founding of this dynasty, the world was peaceful and the country was prosperous. However, it also became noble and military, which is why Jia Zhu said this. It seems that he no longer takes Jia Ke seriously, thinking that he will never be as good as himself in the official career.
.It shows that he thinks highly of himself.
Jia Ke felt the contempt in his bones and was very angry. So he didn't say anything to him, turned around and left.
Jia Ke didn't believe in the nonsense about the nobles and the lowly military. He only knew that the great ancestor of the Earth said, "Political power comes from the barrel of a gun." He believed this sentence to be the truth.
The following days were spent waiting for the Chinese New Year. Jia Ke was very peaceful every day. After practicing martial arts in the training ground every day, he went to the study to read the war books collected by the two old princes. He lived a very comfortable life. Occasionally he and Jia Lian were together.
At a party together, I heard from Jia Lian that in order to allow Jia Zhu to concentrate better on his studies, Mrs. Wang used the relationship between the Wang family to obtain a strange medicine for Jia Zhu, called Afurong, which was said to be a tribute from foreign countries.
, the price was extremely expensive, and the Wang family had to go through many connections to get this strange medicine.
Jia Ke finally understood why Jia Zhu's body was so strange. It turned out that he had taken medicine, and others didn't know how powerful this medicine was. But how could Jia Ke, who came from modern society, not know?
If Jia Zhu took this medicine, he would probably be useless in the future. The ancients didn't know how powerful it was, and they really thought it was a good medicine for concentration. That's why they abused it, but they didn't know that it was a devil that harmed people.
However, this aphrodisiac still has a certain effect. It seems that Jia Zhu’s talent test is set this time. No wonder people are arrogant. They think that with this magical medicine, they can rise to the top all the way. But they never consider that the higher they climb, they will fall.
The worse it gets.
Since Jia Zhu is no longer a threat, Jia Ke no longer pays attention to him.
On New Year's Eve, a big event happened when worshiping ancestors. Jia She wanted to put Aunt Zhang's spiritual tablet into the ancestral hall. Jia's mother was fiercely opposed to it, but this time Jia She was so stubborn that she ignored the opposition and even threatened to resign. Later, he resigned from the Taoist temple
Jia Jing, who came back from the hospital, adjusted the situation and placed Aunt Zhang's spiritual tablet at the edge of the ancestral hall, which finally settled the dispute.
After that, all the procedures were peaceful and there was no trouble. But Jia Ke saw from it that another big beam in Jia's house was broken. When Jia Ke first met Jia She, he was arrogant and arrogant. Although it is not a good thing? But?
He still has an enterprising spirit, but now his eyes are dim and full of despair. It seems that he is really passionate about this Aunt Zhang. But Jia Ke feels very strange. Jia She has seen countless women, how could he be tied up by Aunt Zhang?
It's so tight. I'm afraid he doesn't know all of Aunt Zhang's secrets.
After that, just like in previous years, we can rest until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
After the New Year, I started to be busy with two things. One was Jia Zhu's imperial examination in February. The other was that Mrs. Wang was giving birth in April.
During this time, Jia Ke always felt that someone was secretly peering into their small courtyard. Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao had stopped greeting each other, and Jia Zhu no longer saw anyone else.
The two of them were protected very closely, for fear that something might go wrong. Jia Yuanchun had moved back to Mrs. Wang's courtyard and was guarding her day and night.
Jia Ke waited quietly. After these two things were over, he asked Jia Zheng to help him clear the way so that he could get a practical position in the army.
On this day, Aunt Zhou called Jia Ke to her side and asked him to do something. It turned out that she had heard someone said that the incense in Guangji Temple was the most abundant and the most effective. So she asked Jia Ke to take her to burn incense and offer it to her.
Pay tribute to protect Jia Ke from any disease and keep his heart happy.
Jia Ke is very resistant to this matter. It's not that he doesn't believe it, but he believes it too much, so he is afraid. After all, he came here to seize the body, and he has been to the underworld, and he knows that there are ghosts and gods in this world.
.When he went to worship Buddha, wasn't he throwing himself into a trap? But Aunt Zhou couldn't win over her, so she had to agree to let him go tomorrow.
The next day, Jia Ke reluctantly took Qian Mao with him.
Guangji Temple is located on Fuchengmen Inner Street in the west of Beijing. It is a famous ancient temple in Beijing. It covers an area of 35 acres and faces south. On the central axis, there are Shanmen Hall, Maitreya Hall (Tianwang Hall), Main Hall and Yuantong Hall.
Hall (Guanyin Hall). Pilgrims gather every day and there are many believers.
Jia Ke entered from the mountain gate and prepared to bow when he met the temple. It is not surprising that there are many people who follow the Tao. He entered the temple of gods and Buddhas as a lonely ghost. If he didn't bow to the gods more often, he would probably have a hard time if he offended any gods.
.
However, something went wrong when he was passing through the Heavenly King's Hall. As soon as he entered the Heavenly King's Hall and was about to kneel down and bow to the Maitreya Bodhisattva enshrined in the hall, an old monk suddenly appeared from the side.
Seeing that Jia Ke was about to worship Maitreya Bodhisattva, he immediately stepped forward to support him. Jia Ke didn't understand why and looked at the old monk.
It turns out that this old monk is not a mortal, but the oldest and oldest monk in Guangji Temple. He has practiced meditation all his life and has never stepped out of Guangji Temple. Yesterday, he was restless in the meditation center. At night, he dreamed of being released.
Golden light, surrounded by two golden dragons in front and behind, and protected by countless gods, came to Guangji Temple and knelt down to Maitreya Bodhisattva in front of the Heavenly King's Hall. After just one bow, the Maitreya Bodhisattva statue was shattered into pieces. When I woke up, I was sweating all over my body. Today
He came out specifically to wait in front of the Heavenly King's Hall. Of course he didn't stop him when he saw others. When he saw Jia Ke, he was vaguely the person in the dream. When he saw that he wanted to worship Maitreya Bodhisattva, he stepped forward to support him and stopped him from worshiping.
Go down.
Jia Ke asked the old monk: "Master, I went into the temple to pay homage to the Bodhisattva. It was my intention, why did you stop me?"
The old monk replied: "The donor has great luck and great merits. If Maitreya Bodhisattva accepts your worship, this clay body will be destroyed. Therefore, the donor comes to stop me. Don't blame me."
Jia Ke had no idea what the old monk was talking about. What about having great luck and great merits? What is all this about? It turns out that Jia Ke was carrying the Heavenly Dao with him at this time, and his worship represented not only himself, but also a part of the world.
Therefore, if he bows down, the clay body of Maitreya Bodhisattva will be destroyed.
Seeing Jia Ke's doubts, the old monk said, "Donor, don't bother thinking about it. This matter will definitely come true in the future." Then without saying anything else, he invited Jia Ke to his Zen room for tea.
Jia Ke couldn't put it off and went with him. When they arrived at the Zen room, the old monk asked Jia Ke to sit down. Jia Ke dared not accept the postponement. The two declined, but neither of them sat down, so they had no choice but to sit face to face on the old monk's bed.
sit.
After sitting down, the old monk asked: "Why did the donor come to my Guangji Temple?"
Jia Ke answered him: "My mother at home is a devout Buddhist. But she can't come here, so let me offer incense and pray on her behalf." After that, he presented incense money and tribute.
The old monk clasped his hands together and said, "My lady is a devout Buddhist. She will be blessed with great blessings in the future. I will offer the tribute to the Buddha right now. Please give the donor your mother's name so that I can pray for her in front of the Buddha."
Jia Ke then told Aunt Zhou her name. The old monk carefully wrote it down and put it aside with the tribute.
Then the old monk asked Jia Ke his name again, and Jia Ke told the truth.
While the two were talking, they heard someone making a loud noise outside the Zen room. The young monk came in to report. It was said that a donor was possessed by an evil spirit. All methods had been tried, but to no avail. I heard that the Dharma of Guangji Temple was
The most clever person was sent to Guangji Temple and asked eminent monks to practice the method to avoid disasters and eliminate evil spirits.
However, all the eminent monks in the temple tried their own methods, but none of them worked, so they came to the Patriarch and asked the Patriarch himself to take action.
The old monk was embarrassed. He looked at Jia Ke and said to the young monk: "I have a distinguished guest here. Let them wait for a while."
When Jia Ke saw that the old monk had something to do, he said to him: "Master, if you have something to do, just go and take care of it. I'll just wait here for a while. It's more important to save people."
After hearing what Jia Ke said was reasonable, the old monk saluted Jia Ke and said, "I have offended you so much. Please wait here, I'll come back when I go." After that, he went with the young monk.
