Three hundred and thirtieth eight chapters irritating
From that day on, Su Ji worked peacefully as the young shopkeeper in Taoran Pavilion on Zhengqi Island. On weekdays, he didn’t go out, but just sorted out the bookstore’s documents and accounts. In his spare time, Suji liked to stay in the backyard of the bookstore.
In my library, I make a cup of tea and hold a book in my hand, often staying up late at night.
The Taorange Bookshop operates, in addition to the Confucian classics of the human world, some rare miscellaneous notes of predecessors, and rare rare books; but above Mount Lu, it is the world of monks, so there are also some monks' skills and even elixirs from time to time.
Medicine formulas, Qi Men Dun Jia's books, and jade slips were all put into the library. All of them were sorted by Su Ji himself, assessed for value, treasured, sold, and organized according to business needs.
When Tong Xuan, the old shopkeeper, saw this, he praised him for being a book lover. Within a few days, he became the shopkeeper and traveled around.
On this day, a group of Confucian monks came to Taoran Pavilion. They were all dressed in white robes, with straight eyes and swords in their hands. They filed in. The guys recognized at a glance that these people came down from Haoran Peak, smiling attentively.
Welcoming each other, he hurried to the library in the backyard to inform Su Ji.
After receiving the report from the clerk, Su Ji put down the book in his hand, came to the front hall, looked around for a while, clasped his fists in salute, and was about to say hello. The leader glanced at Su Ji, saluted politely and asked,
"Your Excellency, you are now the young shopkeeper and secretary of Taoran Pavilion?"
Su Ji nodded in agreement. He only heard the man say with a smile, "A few days ago, shopkeeper Tong informed Haoranfeng that your bookstore had collected a volume of "Three Strategies of Virtue". Now, the canonization ceremony for the new inner disciples is approaching.
, I am here to beg/purchase something as a gift for the ceremony on the orders of True Lord Haoran. Thank you, Master Su."
"Three Strategies of Virtue" was written by Dong Zhongshu, a great scholar of the Western Han Dynasty. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked, Dong Zhongshu listed the three strategies, saying that "the power of kings is inspired by heaven and man, and the power of kings is granted by gods", and suggested that "the Kong family should be promoted, and hundreds of schools should be suppressed... The great unification of the Spring and Autumn Period.
"Respect the king and repel the barbarians..." It has considerable effect and significance on the dominance of Confucianism in later generations.
After hearing this man's words, Su Ji's heart sank. This volume of "Three Strategies of Virtue" was written by Dong Zhongshu himself. Not only is it of extraordinary significance, but every word and sentence on the bamboo slips also contains its awe-inspiring aura.
In the past few days, Su Ji had been holding the bamboo slips in his hand, reading and reciting with great concentration. Under the influence of conscious influence, the Confucian atmosphere that Liu Bowen judged as impure was subtly changed, and his outlook was greatly changed.
Unexpectedly, these Haoran Peak Confucian cultivators came to ask for it today. Su Ji thought for a moment and said to the man, "Please wait for a moment."
When Su Ji came out of the library in the backyard, he reluctantly handed the volume of "Three Strategies of Virtue" written by Dong Zhongshu into the hands of the man. The man stroked it gently with his hand, explored it with his spiritual consciousness, and then put it in his bag.
, smiled with satisfaction and said, "Thank you very much." Then he took out two Xian Confucian Orders from his arms, placed them on the table, and left with the Confucian cultivators.
The Xianru Order is a travel token issued by the Confucian sect Haoran Peak. Those who hold this token are under the jurisdiction of Haoran Peak's forces and are protected, and can go to Haoran Peak once after reporting permission.
A unique volume of "Three Strategies of Virtue" written by Dong Zhongshu was taken away by the Confucian monks who came down from Haoran Peak in exchange for two Xian Confucian Orders. Su Ji felt depressed and unwilling, but he had no choice but to endure it.
With anger, he sent the group of people who had come down from Haoran Peak to the door with smiles on their faces. They stood there in a daze for a long time, then turned around and walked towards the backyard with waning spirits.
Su Ji sat numbly in the library, looking at the rows of neatly arranged bookshelves. The bamboo slips and jade slips of books on them quietly exuded a unique atmosphere. He couldn't help but think of when he was a child, burying his head in his grandfather's study.
The scene of studying hard. After ten years of hard work, I tried and failed repeatedly, and I walked around in the city of Yuandu with fragrant clothes and horses wearing flowers... Suddenly, I remembered that I was taught by others, groping for practice, and went through many ups and downs until I reached Mount Lu.
Bumping and wandering..
During the Xuanyingmen massacre, Zhang Cuilu and others were captured by Qingjing Peak. He urgently summoned Master Wuxu, and then followed Liu Bowen to actively try to rescue Zhang Cuilu and others. When Zhang Cuilu and others were taken in by Master Yuanfa at Lianfa Peak, he
Then he also followed Liu Bowen to Haoran Peak. He thought he would stay at Haoran Peak and devote himself to practicing Confucianism. Who knows, but a few days later, Liu Bowen called him over.
"Although your cultivation is based on Confucianism, it is patchy and low-level. Nowadays, the six peaks are fighting fiercely. There are many factions on Haoran Peak. Zhenjun Haoran and others have deep grudges with Master Wuxu. If I keep you
At Haoran Peak, it might bring you a fatal disaster..." Liu Bowen's words seemed to still be faintly echoing in his ears.
Su Ji calmed down his mind a little, couldn't help but get up, and walked towards the bookshelf at the end of the library. This bookshelf looked the same as other bookshelves, but most of the things on it were silk bamboo slips, and a few
They are some jade slips and certificates, but there is not a single paper one. On this bookshelf are the monks' books collected by Taoran Pavilion, including Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism, as well as the three religions and nine streams. Su Ji, No.
When I first discovered it, I was overjoyed, but then I was disappointed. Su Ji, although his cultivation level is only about the fourth level of the mortal world, and as Liu Bowen said, his cultivation skills are mediocre, but he still has good eyesight.
. He browsed the books on the bookshelf carefully and realized that the exercises, formulas, and moves recorded in the books on the bookshelf were all commercial products.
But at this moment, after the Confucian monk from Haoran Peak came to ask for Dong Zhongshu's "Three Strategies of Virtue" written by Dong Zhongshu, Su Ji's heart rose again. He walked casually along the bookshelf, and occasionally put his fingers on it.
Unconsciously, I fiddled with the silk bamboo slips and jade slips.
Suddenly, Su Ji stopped, lowered his head, bent down, and picked up a piece of thin silk from the ground. What caught his eyes were four black characters in seal script, "Xuan Ying Nine Transformations". Su Ji was shocked, Xuan Ying
The incident at the door had just passed, and the word "Xuan Ying" was really frightening. But there seemed to be an indescribable energy in this thin silk.
Su Ji couldn't take his eyes away from the magic power he was talking about. He stood there motionless, like a stone sculpture. After a long time, he raised his head and murmured to himself, "Wen Tianxiang, the Black Dragon Master of Raksha Peak True Spirit, is indeed the
The former prime minister who wrote "Song of Righteousness". The nine changes of the mysterious shadow, the inner saint and the outer king, are extremely mysterious."
After Su Ji finished speaking, he woke up suddenly and looked around anxiously. The library was quiet and there was no one else. The luminous pearls inlaid on the ceiling shimmered. Su Ji's figure was curved on the ground and on the bookshelf.
Qu. Su Ji suddenly saw a gap in the bookshelf opposite, which was the second to last bookshelf in the library. He turned back and walked to the front of the bookshelf. A small yellow paper label was pasted there, saying
Four black characters in block letters read "Three Strategies of Virtue".
That's right! This thin silk recording the Nine Transformations of Xuan Ying must have been hidden in the bamboo slips by the previous owner of the "Three Strategies of Virtue". Just now those Haoran Peak Confucian monks asked for it, but they were secretly angry in their hearts, so they went into the library and took out this book. When reading "Three Strategies of Virtue", the force was a little too strong and it seemed that it hit the bookshelf.
"I didn't expect that there is God's will in the dark!" Su Ji suddenly said this sentence without any clue, calmly put the thin silk into his sleeve, looked around again, and floated out.
..
It is said that Wuxu was in the Sakya Temple on the snow-covered plateau in the human world, and together with Dorje, he practiced the art of falling stars and dispersing clouds with Master Pasiba. Wuxu practiced the art of falling stars, and Dorje practiced the art of falling clouds. On the day of success, Pasiba went up to Mount Lu. However, Wuxu and Duoji happened to talk about the four major Buddhist ashrams in the world in the past few days, except the Guanyin Bodhisattva ashram. Putuo Island.
Because on the West Lake that day, Wuxu and Duoji made an agreement with Shen/Changqi. Shen/Changqi strictly restrained the demon clan in the East China Sea, treated the Buddhists in the area under his jurisdiction quite courteously, and even ordered people to remove all the people on Putuo Island. The large and small temples were renovated. So, Wuxu and Duoji left Zhoushan Dinghai City. Far away on the sea, they saw a bright golden light in the direction of Putuo Island. A little closer, the fragrance of Buddha and the sound of Sanskrit were drifting in the wind. Wuxu was quite pleased in his heart, "I have received great kindness from Guanyin Bodhisattva, but I have never been able to repay it. What I saw today is that the Taoist priest is in full bloom, and at least a part of my deep concern has been relieved."
When they arrived at Putuo Island, they entered Baotuo Guanyin Temple with their true faces, straightened their monk robes, and put their hands together. There were dozens of monks in the temple, but none of them knew Wuxu and Duoji. The governor monk only thought they were wandering monks. He came out and walked with the two of them for a while, said a few words, then apologized and went to receive other pilgrims.
Wuxu was not angry but overjoyed. He personally led Dorje to the Mahavira Hall. After respectfully paying homage to the Lord Sakyamuni, he came to the front of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's Cihang Purdue. He stared at it for a long time and then said to Dorje, "Earlier on our trip to the East China Sea, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva first appeared in the incarnation of Zan Liu, and then appeared here, using Bodhi water in the bottle to wash the body of Wuxu who had broken the precepts." This matter was mentioned to Dorje before Wuxu, and now he is solemnly doing so in the future, even though it is only A short sentence, but it contains a deep meaning.
That day, Wuxu held the Xingyun Bamboo and rescued Duoji from Zhao Tong's demon flag formation. Duoji was like a dying person or like a newborn baby, huddled up and floating in the air of Wuxu's Dharma Realm. After coming out, he saw There seemed to be something different in Xiang Wuxu's eyes. Especially after he had endured the evil karma that eroded his body and mind, his gentle smile, set against the lotus-shaped black mark on his forehead, made Wuxu's heart tingle. , and felt extremely coquettish and weird. As early as when he was at Tianyuan Yansheng Temple in Yuandu, Wuxu accidentally heard that some eminent monks in Lamaism, who abide by the rules and take ordination and are not sexually attracted to women, secretly like men. At that time, Wuxu was still young, so he just laughed it off and thought to himself, "These lamas have been in seclusion in the temple all year round, never leaving the door or taking a step forward. They have been holding it in for so long that their psychology has been distorted. Women dare not love and cannot love." , fall in love with the people of the same sex around you.”
Unexpectedly, Duoji has shown signs of this recently. He took good care of him in Tianyuan Yansheng Temple, and later stood up for him several times. He even went so far as to start a killing spree on Handang Mountain, and a few days ago he did not hesitate to disobey Master Ba Siba's orders. , secretly followed him and himself to the cave in Lihu. When Wuxu thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Although, after returning to Sakya Temple from Lihu, Duoji got rid of the karmic obstacles of grievances, and his expression and behavior returned to normal. He was extremely clear and calm, but every time Wuxu was alone with him, he still felt strange and awkward, and couldn't feel at peace in his heart.
Therefore, when Duoji proposed a trip to Putuo Island in the East China Sea, Wuxu was very embarrassed at first. He hesitated for a long time before agreeing, thinking in his mind that he would take this opportunity to give a tactful warning.
This sentence comes from this. In front of the World Honored One and the Bodhisattva, he talks about residual sins, breaks the precepts, and cleanses.
I saw Duoji standing with his hands together, nodding silently, but there was no expression on his face.
After a moment, he slowly said, "A monk has a compassionate heart that has no distinction between birds and animals, flowers and trees, loess and bluestones, murderous bandits, high-ranking nobles, parents and brothers, relatives and friends,
Stunning beauty, fellow disciple... Junior brother, let me ask you, can a monk truly love everyone without distinction or division, and love them all with compassion?"
Wuxu naturally understood this principle of treating everyone equally and having boundless love. Just when he was about to talk about the differences between family, friendship and love, he saw Duoji standing in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva Cihang Pudu, clasping his hands and smiling, with a compassionate face.
"A compassionate heart has nothing to do with it. As a monk, the four elements are empty. When it comes to family, friendship, and love, it is all about the appearance." Wu Xu was silent in his heart and remained silent for a long time. "Could it be that he is the one who is attached to the appearance?"
Wuxu felt completely relieved, and his mood became active. He thought mischievously, "Does Senior Brother Duoji love everyone? Aila
Fang, love both men and women? Bisexuality in later generations? It seems that this can also be said to be no difference, no distinction?" Thinking of this, Wuxu hurriedly recited the Buddha's name silently, "Amitabha, it is good, it is good. It is a sin to blaspheme the Dharma like this."
But he couldn't help but smile, and together with Dorje, they bowed respectfully and paid homage to Guanyin Bodhisattva.
...
At this moment, thousands of miles away on the snowy plateau, in a monk's room in Sakya Monastery, the doors and windows were closed. In the darkness, a thin man in black and a burly fat monk were looking at each other.
Motionless.
Suddenly, the man in black said, "Basiba has already gone to Mount Lu, so why is Yang Zuoshi still hiding here with Lu?"
In the monk's room, black energy surged, and the fat monk gradually transformed into a stunning beauty. She was still wearing a large purple monk's robe, with an affectionate look on her face, "Mr. Lu, have you recovered from your injury?" Then
The man in black glanced at Yang Yingrong coldly, as if he had turned a blind eye to the dramatic living trick just before his eyes, "Thanks to Yang Zuoshi for secretly helping me this time, Lu will definitely return this favor in the future."
These two people were none other than Yang Yingrong and Lu Yeqing.
On that day, Lu Yeqing was secretly restrained by Pasiba and brought to Sakya Temple from Lushan Mountain. Then he gathered the senior monks in the temple to use Buddhist secrets to forcefully open his past life spiritual awareness. As a ghost monk, how could Lu Yeqing withstand such torture?
He almost died, but fortunately, the phoenix soul he collected by chance at Rakshasa Peak suddenly showed its power, protected Lu Yeqing and resisted fiercely. Suddenly, Sakya
An elder in the temple who participated in the spell cast raised his head and spurted blood, revealing a flaw in the magic circle. Lu Yeqing took the opportunity to escape. Unfortunately, Lu Yeqing was already seriously injured, and the Phoenix Soul fell asleep again after this battle.
, In desperation, Lu Yeqing was afraid of being intercepted by Ba Siba, so he used the Nine Transformations of Black Shadow taught by the Black Dragon Envoy in mid-air, changed direction, and secretly hid in the snowy mountains.
Ba Siba's spiritual consciousness could not catch up with him in the direction of Lushan Mountain, and he had suspicions in his heart, so he ordered people to search everywhere on the snowy plateau. Lu Yeqing hid in Tibet in the middle east of the ice and snow, and was miserable until Yang Yingrong found him. Before Yang Yingrong, she was enlightened
After being chased by Xing Yunzhu and escaping hastily, she gave up her identity as the Dharma King of Drepung Monastery, and secretly plotted and pretended to be an elder of Sakya Monastery. It was she who secretly betrayed Lu Yeqing after seeing the phoenix soul flying out of his body.
, to help him escape.
These two people had contacted each other before on Lushan Mountain. In order to seize the piece of Xingyun Bamboo in the hands of Li Bingcheng and Liang Xiaoru, Yang Yingrong tried to win over Lu Yeqing. Although Lu Yeqing showed up as promised during the attack, he did so under the guise of
My own little calculation.
Yang Yingrong knew all this, but she didn't mention it a word. Instead, she smiled at Lu Yeqing and said, "That old bald donkey from Basiba is gone. You and I can do something big on this snowy plateau by joining forces."
"
"Oh, what's the big deal?" Lu Yeqing asked calmly. He knew that Yang Yingrong, as the left envoy of the Demon Prisoner's Palace, was well-informed, and the first person she came down from was a Tibetan.
woman.
In the darkness, a white light flashed, and the purple monk's robe on Yang Yingrong slid down inch by inch.
"The ancients said that eating and drinking, men and women, can only keep great desires." Yang Yingrong's soft voice sounded in the darkness, "Late in the Zen room late at night, the so-called big things can only be determined by great joy."
Lu Yeqing, sitting calmly in his arms, sneered slightly and said, "Buddhist Great Joy Chan, I'm afraid he is not so naked and in the snow, right? If Yang Zuo has something to do, just tell him directly, Lu will fight alongside you."
Yang Yingrong couldn't help but giggle, her figure fluttering in front of Lu Yeqing, like a 28-year-old innocent girl on a swing, "Mr. Lu, I'm in trouble! I am a Buddha who is compassionate to all sentient beings. Love between men and women, the beauty of the same robe, in the end
It's just a passing cloud. Don't you hear that form is emptiness, emptiness is form." The voice became lower and lower, and gradually became a murmur.
"Easy to say, easy to say!" Lu Yeqing suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed Yang Yingrong's smooth feet, and pulled her into his arms.
As the saying goes
I only read the books of sages and sages, but in the end I still asked Xuan Ying for help.
Avalokitesvara expresses mercy, while the devil speaks of joy and makes people sad.
