"Buddhism can't stop me! Buddhism can't stand me? I...... Why is my life so miserable? (Silla language)
When the woman heard this, two lines of hot tears rolled down her cheeks. Clenched, his knees were weak, and he made a "poof", fell to the ground, and cried out in pain.
Although most of the people in the audience knew the woman's situation, after listening to her again, their eyes were red and speechless for a while.
The reason why Cui Geng and the people behaved like this is, of course, because the fate of this woman was too miserable, and the culprit was the Fengde Temple in the West Plains City.
Just a year ago, a monk at Bongdeoksa Temple claimed that the reason why Silla suffered from disasters year after year was because the Silla people did not have enough reverence for the Buddha. Therefore, the temple decided to use 100,000 catties of brass to cast an unprecedented bell to please the Buddha.
Of course, the four major monks are empty, where did they get any brass? The money for the casting of the bell needs to be given by the benefactors.
The monks of Fengde Temple came out in all directions to "turn fate" to the donors from all walks of life.
The "crazy woman" in front of Cui Geng has also become the object of the monks of Fengde Temple.
She said to the monk who came to turn into a relationship: "I am a widow~ woman, penniless, what can I give to you?" So be it, I am the only one in my house and my daughter, and if you have to give alms, you will kill me, or you will take my daughter away. โ
The monk walked away.
However, on the day the bell was built, the bell, which cost 100,000 taels of brass, did not sound at all.
What's going on?
The monk who had asked the woman for alms had an idea and remembered this incident.
After explaining what had happened, he said to the monks: "It must be that woman who has angered the Buddha that this bell has not sounded." โ
"And this?"
"That woman is too unreasonable!"
"She said that if she gave up her daughter, then she should give up her daughter."
โฆโฆ
The monks were immediately excited, gathered the monks, rushed into the woman's house, and took her daughter away.
Then, they smashed the giant bell, melted it into molten copper, and recast it. In order to plead the Buddha for the sins of these beasts who had lost their conscience, they threw the woman's daughter into the copper water.
After the bell was recast, it was able to make a sound. However, the sound of this bell is different from that of ordinary bells, and the sound it produces is similar to that of "Emirlai". This word translates into Chinese as "because of mother".
The monks were not ashamed, but proud, and not only publicized this matter everywhere, but also everywhere, and the bell was the little girl's accusation. Accusing his mother of disrespecting the Buddha led to his own end.
When the little girl's mother heard the news, she fainted.
When she woke up again, she was awake and confused. When he was confused, he was a madman, skewering around the streets, making himself a ghost and a ghost. When I was sober, I thought of my daughter, and my tears couldn't stop flowing, and I didn't care about myself.
Today, I heard that there was a master from the Tang Dynasty who gave a lecture, and the woman also went to the periphery.
She stared at the four black dots, and sure enough, she saw the image of the Buddha. Immediately became angry with the Buddha and scolded.
The heart is dead.
Even if it is a god and Buddha, what can I do?
Cui Geng sighed and said, "You get up." To be honest, although this matter has nothing to do with Buddhism, the culprit is the monk of Fengde Temple, and you should mainly scold them, not the Buddha. โ
(Below, skip the sergeant's translation process).
The woman snorted and said, "The monk of Fengde Temple is not a disciple of Buddhism?" โ
"Of course, it doesn't have to be ......," Cui Gengbao said solemnly and said a piece of Buddhism.
Legend has it that when Shakyamuni Buddha first attained enlightenment, the demon king Bo Xun came to see the Buddha and persuaded the Buddha to enter Nirvana quickly. He said, "What the World-Honored One has done has been done, and it has been proved that all the Dharma is lifeless, and you can quickly enter Nirvana.
The Buddha said, "My disciples have not yet attained enlightenment, so they should not enter Nirvana." โ
Bo Xun said, "Then when all the disciples of the World-Honored One have attained it, they should immediately enter Nirvana." โ
Buddha silently agreed.
So the demon king Bo Xun rejoiced and said, "After the extinction of the World-Honored One, in the period of the end of the Dharma, my demon son and demon grandson will turn into a monk and become a monk in the World-Honored Temple, put on a Buddha's robe, recite Buddhist scriptures, and destroy the Dharma. โ
So the Lord wept.
After Cui Geng finished speaking, he sighed lightly and said: "Although the world is not the end of the Dharma period, the demon son and demon grandson of the demon king Bo Xun have already begun to make waves. This is the monk in Fengde Temple, not my Buddhist disciple, but the disciple of the demon king Bo Xun. โ
The woman said angrily, "You monk, you are so unreasonable. Just now I said that the Buddha couldn't stand me, and now I excused the Buddhas again. โ
Cui Geng shook his head and said, "It's not an excuse, it's a fact." When I say that Buddhism can't stand you, I mean that Buddhism didn't notice that the Demon Son and Demon Sun were mixed into Fengde Temple, not that this matter was done by the disciples of Buddhism. โ
The woman was still a little disapproving, and sneered: "According to what you say, those who do good deeds are true monks, and those who do bad deeds are devils and demon grandsons, which can be ignored really clean." โ
"It's not intentionally left out. Now, I will declare to everyone what is the true Buddha. โ
After speaking, he glanced at Jin Qiaojue and said, "Take our fate." โ
"Fate?" Jin Qiaojue was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood.
In order to consolidate the effect, it is definitely necessary to prepare some souvenirs.
Therefore, the two prepared a lot of gadgets of different values in advance and packed them in a box.
The original plan was to wait until the puja was over and then distribute it.
Jin Qiaojue picked up the box, and Cui Geng didn't take those worthless things, but took out ten of the most valuable Buddha statues.
Cui Geng held up a Buddha statue and said: "This Buddha statue is made of pure gold, and a certain Buddha recited the "Dizang Honwish Sutra" 7749 times in front of the Buddha to consecrate it. Now, whoever wants to get married to my Buddha can exchange his beloved things for this Buddha statue! โ
"I, I'll exchange it for twenty dollars!
"Pull it down, you want to change it for twenty dollars? I'll pay fifty dollars! โ
"Fifty is nothing, I am willing to sacrifice a hundred brocade horses!"
"I have an ancestral gem, and I would like to exchange it for the Buddha statue of the master."
โฆโฆ
Judging from the size of this Buddha statue, it is about two taels, which is equivalent to twenty yuan. The most important thing is that this is a Buddha statue that can live and die and live human flesh and bones, and let everyone see the Buddha!
Take it home, bless yourself and even your family from all evils, eliminate all diseases, and all blessings will come, needless to say.
So, the people were very enthusiastic.
Cui Geng just smiled and nodded, and didn't answer. It wasn't until the voices of the people gradually lowered that he pressed down with his hands, coughed lightly and said: "Everyone may have misunderstood something, so this is to use this Buddha statue to get in touch with everyone, but it is not an auction, and the one with the highest price will get it." Next, please step forward one by one, take out your beloved things, and see if you can get in touch with my Buddha. โ
I heard that it was not the one who paid the highest price, and the enthusiasm of the people became more and more high.
Immediately, according to Cui Geng's instructions, he stepped forward in turn.
At the beginning, the few people who came up were ordinary people, and they didn't have much money on them, and Cui Geng didn't give them the Buddha statues, but just handed out some ordinary souvenirs. In terms of value, it is probably an equivalent exchange.
After a while, a man who looked like a peddler stepped up to the high platform.
He took two pears and said, "Don't dare to covet the master's treasures, it's just ...... The master preached the Dharma for a long time, and he was already tired. This pear is a rarity at this time, so it is given to the master to quench his thirst. โ
"Thank you, little brother." Cui Geng took the pears and said, "It's all May, and it's really rare to see last year's pears." โ
"Isn't it?" The peddler said proudly: "It's not that the little one is reluctant to give the master more ions, but if you look for it in the original city of Manxi, I'm afraid that only these two pears are not rotten." โ
"That little brother really has a heart."
As he spoke, Cui Geng picked up a golden Buddha statue and said, "You have a relationship with my Buddha, so I will give you this Buddha statue." โ
The peddler waved his hand again and again, and said, "No...... It's too precious for me to ask for it. โ
"Where, this little brother must not shirk." Cui Gengdao: "For my Buddhist disciples, there is no difference between everything in the world. The exchange of Buddha treasures is only about chance, not about the amount of goods. โ
"But ......"
Jin Qiaojue's face turned pale next to him, and he said, "It's nothing, don't you still want to refute the master's face?" โ
"Of course you don't dare, you don't dare!"
"If you don't dare, you can take it!"
"Yes...... Be. โ
The peddler accepted it with joy, and swore again and again that he would not sell the treasure given by the master, no matter how difficult it was at home.
Of course, Cui Geng had nothing to do with this, and after a few words of encouragement, he was ordered to retreat.
Immediately after that, there were gradually rich and noble people, who took out dozens or even hundreds of worth of property and asked to exchange Cui Geng's Buddha statue.
However, Cui Geng only refused to give them souvenirs. And if anyone felt that he had lost something, he would let them take back what he had offered.
After a while, a little beggar came up to the stage.
"Bang bang bang!"
He first kowtowed to Cui Geng a few times, and then said, "This master, I'...... Do I want to exchange this steamed cake for your Buddha statue? โ
