The so-called "Maitreya Belief in Upper Life" is outside the Elysium of Buddhism, and a virtual construction of a "Tushitian Pure Land" or "Amitabha Pure Land", this Pure Land is created by Maitreya Buddha, it is different from the Elysian World, because there are still desires in this Pure Land, such as the golden and brilliant temple, the wonderful nectar, the stunning Celestial Maiden, etc., but this Pure Land view is the most popular among the general public, and few people really want to be empty. Then as long as you worship Maitreya sincerely, you will be able to ascend to this Pure Land after death.

And the examiner who can not be reborn in the Pure Land is naturally Maitreya Buddha. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the high monk Dao'an often swore in front of the statue of Maitreya with his disciples, such as Dharma encounters, Taoist wishes, and Tan precepts, that he would die together after death. Later, before he died, he recited the Maitreya Dharma number, and his disciples asked him why he didn't make a wish to go to the Western Elysium. Tan Jie said, I once talked to Master Dao'an and other eight people, and said that after death, I would go to the Pure Land of Tushi Heaven together, and now that Master and Dao Yuan have gone, if I don't go, wouldn't I be dishonest?

Maitreya is waiting for you in the Pure Land, and it is called "Ascending Life".

The "Maitreya Belief in the Next Life" is more radical, the suffering believers in the troubled times, many people are unwilling to pin their hopes on the ethereal afterlife, they are eager to be saved in this world, so they create a story of Maitreya's birth, as long as this person comes to the world, with the support of believers, build a "pure land on earth".

It is believed that Maitreya will bring the Pure Land of Heaven to the earth, which is called "faith in the next life".

Of course, the beliefs of this next life later became more and more radical, and when combined with the rebellion against secular rule, it also formed the Maitreya uprising that we are very familiar with later.

Gao Yue couldn't help laughing, and asked the mage whether you believe in the upper life or the next life.

Who wants Mingxuan to reply very solemnly, "The upper life is for the next life, and the next life is for the upper life." Maitreya Buddha not only created the Pure Land, but also saved sentient beings, and the two became one. If there is no Pure Land, why do believers make their vows? If there is no salvation, who will the believers rely on to die? So Tan Yue, why do you want to divide it up and down! ”

"The Pure Land is salvation, and salvation is the Pure Land." At this time, Gao Yue seemed to understand something, and stood up with a mutter.

At this time, the sky was overcast, the originally brilliant sun disappeared behind the dark clouds, and the thunder gradually became louder and clearer.

And Gao Yue was still walking back and forth in the courtyard, repeating Fang Cai's words.

Originally, he would be a little sad because of the estrangement with Zheng Qi, but now the two conversations with Pan Yan and then with Ming Xuan made him completely figure it out.

Why should I bother to be entangled in personal friendship, since I think that what I am doing is right, and I can seek "salvation" and "pure land" for the whole world, then I will not hesitate to go on.

I will finish the way I need to go.

I will carry out the heart that should be kept.

I will also have no hesitation in those who should be saved.

Even if it becomes the most hated appearance of the person he once hated, he will not hesitate to do so.

At this time, a few thunders, raindrops fell violently, smashing up strings of green smoke, the smell of fresh earth floated around, the branches and leaves shook in the wind, with the sound of the tide, Gao Yue walked back to the Buddha hall of Alanta Temple in order to avoid the rain.

Ming Xuan had just lit a candle, and Gao Yue saw that on the screen of the Buddha hall, there was a first verse written on it, and he couldn't help but read it:

Maitreya True Maitreya,

Hundreds of billions of doppelgangers,

Always show the people of the time,

At the time, people did not know themselves.

At this moment, the thunder and lightning in the courtyard blew down, illuminating this verse on the screen.

"I, Gao Ziyang, could it be the Maitreya who came to this world by coincidence?" Gao Yue Daikai.

At the time, people didn't know themselves, and even his wife Yun Shao didn't know his details, even Yang Miaoer and Wang Tuantuan of Pingkangfang probably just thought that they were from an unknown place, but they didn't expect that they were from a completely different era.

"Hundreds of billions of doppelgangers......

At this time, Monk Mingxuan nodded and took over his words, "As long as you have the wish to save the world, everyone is a Maitreya clone." ”

"That's right, mage, I see, happy, happy!"

Outside the original courtyard, the wind and rain of thousands of mountains mixed in, scraping Gao Yue's clothes full of wrinkles, and also completely extinguished some of the original hesitations in his heart, and sure enough, the fire in his heart was naturally cold, and then the thunder flashed several times, and the rain immediately dissipated without a trace, and the entire courtyard of the Ming Hall returned to silence, leaving only the residual rain dripping from the eaves and branches, with a crisp and exquisite sound.

Gao Yue picked up the pen from the small table next to him, and struggled to write a poem on the side of the screen:

From nothing there are rain clouds gathered,

There is no thunder fire pin in its own,

Poly pins are all illusions,

Don't be afraid of idle talk.

Then Gao Yue threw his pen and said to Master Mingxuan, "I also hope that I am one of the Maitreya clones. ”

"That Tan Yue can call himself 'Qi this' from now on."

"Well, Master, now that the fifty-seven canals in Xingyuan Mansion are congested, and the former fertile soil has turned into a salted land, are you willing to be this Maitreya?"

"The matter of the salted land, Tan Yue has sent a letter before, and the poor monk has drawn a method to crack it from the agricultural books of the past dynasties, and he is willing to go to Xingyuan Mansion with Gao Tan Yue to stay for a year and a half."

"Go, go, let's join forces to break the rocky beach and change the soil, and I will also make a vow in Xingyuan Mansion to build a Buddhist temple."

July was originally the season of flowing fire, but the boundary of the entire Xingyuan Mansion was the season of continuous summer rain, which caused several rivers to rise and the Han River to rise a few feet.

However, the construction of the Dazhu River Boat Yard and the Tianhan Louzi City began as scheduled.

At the same time, Master Gao Yue, Master Ming Xuan, and the county commander of Baocheng County, Xie Shanji, stood on the towering mountain and river weirs.

"This weir is also known as Xiao He Yan, according to legend, it was built by Xiao He of the Han Dynasty, and Xiao He was completed by Cao Shen of the Xiangguo after Xiao He." Xie Shanji found out the earliest origin of Shanheyan from the documents of the county office.

Shanhe weir is located in the south of Baocheng County, just cross-sectional on the Baoshui water, there are six weir holes dug in total, regulate the hydraulic power, and now all are silted up and in disrepair, can not provide irrigation to the field, Baoshui is diverted from the side to the detour. After the drought, the salinity of the land became even heavier, so it was impossible to grow crops for dozens of miles around.

And when the water flows to the west of Xingyuan Mansion, it is very normal, and now there are sand weirs, Guangtong weirs, sheep's head weirs, etc., and all around are anointed fields.

But now if you want to open a military camp, you still have to think from the mountains and rivers.

Gao Yue and others climbed the mountain and river weir, it is not easy, they came up in a small boat, and now several people stand on the weir, the surging water is really like its common name, like an angry "black dragon" (Baoshui is also known as Heilongjiang), rushing from the rugged hundreds of miles of Qinling barren mountains, circling, roaring, biting and crashing against the earth embankment of the mountain and river weir, full to the top, Gao Yue and others feel that the ground under their feet is trembling, I don't know when this fierce black dragon will flick its tail angrily, and break down the mountain and river weir horizontally, Flood the land over there.

Who would have thought, after looking at the situation, Master Ming Xuan said very calmly, "First let people build five feet high, and then dig it up, and then close the sand weir, Guangtong weir and sheep's head weir downstream, and flood all the land from here to Chiya Pass." ”

What, instead of stopping the summer floods, they have to dig up the weirs and flood the land?

Even Gao Yue was a little confused at this time.
