Chapter 444: Talking about Buddha

Xu Mansion in Xiaojia Village, since Xiao Yuying was released from the Criminal Department in the autumn of that year, she has lived in the Xu family after many years of absence, and she thinks that her cousin will accept her as a concubine because of her old love, and she doesn't want Xu Hao to ignore her for more than a year, so she doesn't feel discouraged.

At first, I was counting on Xu Hao to take the time to come over and say a few heartfelt words, but he was not even in the capital. Sometimes I go to Beijing to visit the old lady and other wives, but I just ask a few ordinary words, and I am not more intimate than other relatives.

Xiao Yuying's heart was very boring, and gradually stopped entering Beijing after that, whenever she thought of what happened over the years, she never closed her eyes all night after thinking about it, and a little enthusiasm turned into ice and snow, and she secretly cried every night, and spent a winter of sadness and depression.

Recently, due to the imbalance of heat and cold, the body is uncomfortable, there is no energy all day, although I can barely sit during the day, I can't sleep at night, and my diet is greatly reduced.

At present, it is the middle of spring, and the weeping willows are smoking, and the grass is sprouting. Xiao Yuying sat sick and stuffy, looking at the swallows in front of the hall to build a nest, secretly saying that Hao'er had been grinding with my ears and temples since childhood, and when I was a child, I fell in love, but I sighed that I had no eyes and was arrogant when I was young, and I neglected him repeatedly between words, and I regarded others as a lifelong trust, so that I completely offended the Xu family.

Now he is a broken flower and a willow, and his good fate has turned into a dream, fortunately he has been decent after getting married, so that Hao'er has saved himself from fire and water, otherwise even if he is with anyone, he is really speechless.

Xiao Yuying sighed in her heart, since marriage has become a painting cake, it is nothing more than the remnants of the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha, how can she become a laughing stock for her because of Long Wangshu?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuying coughed, vomited for a while, only to feel that her five organs were boiling, and her whole body was hot, and she broke out in a cold sweat for a while, and then shivered again.

The maid Cuiyu has served Mei since she was a child, and she has been getting along with the girl for the past year. Xiao Yuying treated her very easy-going, seeing that the girl was entangled by illness, sitting unkempt with her eyes blank, she couldn't help but have a sour nose and sadness in her heart when she was tortured.

However, it was difficult to persuade her to explain this matter, so she had to say: "The girl has this disease, she is weakened, her diet is not good, and her tears are not dry. It seems like this, how can it withstand the body of iron and stone? If the girl doesn't believe it. Just ask people to go, is there still the same way it used to be? Looking at this situation, this illness may not be caused by heat and cold, but the girl doesn't know it, and she still hopes to be lenient and think about it in the long run. ”

Xiao Yuying said sickly: "Where do I have something on my mind? I think it's because of the year and the moon calamity, so I'm sick, it seems that every day is like a day, and it may not be able to get better. Leave it to fate. ”

Jade said, "How can the girl say that? As the saying goes, keep the axe there, and don't be afraid of running out of firewood. If it is not good to recuperate, who will our wife rely on once it gets heavy? The girl is a daughter. ”

Only this sentence hit Xiao Yuying's heart of caring for her mother. The tears rolled down like beads of broken thread, and I couldn't help but lean on the pillow again and cough.

As a result, the illness became more serious. During the day, he was just drowsy, but at night his eyes were blazing, and he coughed all day long. Within a few days, he was described as haggard. The body is emaciated, and the two cherry lips are like white paper, and a peerless beauty is pitiful.

Mei was so anxious that he invited a number of imperial doctors to diagnose and treat him, and on the other hand, he asked for divination and drew lots in the Buddhist hall, and went to the temples to chant incense.

The spring breeze blows, the willows shake green, the clothes are not wet and the apricot blossoms are raining, and the mulberry leaves of the three springs are sent.

On this day, when the day was about to dawn, Xiao Yushi slept for a while, and felt refreshed when she got up in early spring, so she cleaned her hands, burned a stick of incense, sat in the courtyard with a cloak, and took the Diamond Sutra that her mother begged for.

Cuiyu smiled when she saw it: "The girl is better, how can she not raise her spirits?" And do you work hard to recite the scriptures? ”

Xiao Yuying smiled bitterly: "You see me struggling to sit up slightly, so you should be okay?" I myself know that even if I can survive this autumn, I don't expect to be able to survive next spring, and while I still have some strength, reciting a few more pages of the sutra is also a meritorious deed to live one more day. ”

When Cuiyu and the others heard this, they couldn't help but cry sadly, and hurriedly turned their faces away from the girl. Suddenly raindrops fell from the sky, and he hurriedly hugged Xiao Yushi into the house.

At the same time, Xu Hao and Wei talked and laughed indifferently, talked about family life for a while, talked about Shiyi for a while, and left a Fayun monk aside, cold, happy, angry, unbearable, but he couldn't attack again, his face turned red and white, and his heart was full of anger.

For a long time, Xu Hao remembered the outside and asked, "How is it outside?" What about monks? ”

The family replied, "It's gone." ”

Fayun hurriedly said: "This rain is heavier than before, how to get there?" ”

The scholar smiled: "Just now when the rain was light, there was a meal, and those women were squeezed by the monks, so they took advantage of the light rain to stumble and disperse." When the monk saw that the women were gone, he came to our boat to probe his brain, and was scolded by the little ones, and Fang ran away with a roar. The old man was talking lively, so he didn't realize the size of the rain outside. ”

Wei indifferently smiled with a long hairache on his hand: "It's really so-called hearing but not hearing, how did the virtuous nephew get acquainted with such a monk?" ”

Xu Hao said: "The monk is called Song'an, and he is the host of Zhaoqing Temple. Seeing him speak ill of himself today, I wanted to reason with him, but because it was inconvenient for the women to crowd to avoid the rain, I thought that the rain would stop and teach a lesson, and I didn't want to leave. ”

Wei said indifferently: "What is the identity of the virtuous nephew?" Wouldn't it be self-defeating to reason with him? Besides, this monk is so mad and evil, it can be seen that it is not a good kind, my generation loves the body like jade, and disdains to deal with such people. ”

Xu Hao nodded and said, "What Shibo taught is that these people are no different from beasts, so why is it difficult to be a beast?" In the future, you should take your uncle's precepts and keep them in your heart. ”

Fayun sneered and said, "The old protector and this son have also said enough, and Shang Rong is a poor monk." Our monks are the same as you Confucians, hiding filth and dirt, there is nothing, and the poor monks are all equal, not to mention that there are few good people in Confucianism, and there are few bad people in the monks. However, because there are one or two obscene monks in the monks' family, they should not look down on Buddhism, disrespect the Three Jewels, and wantonly ridicule, so that they will lose their fortunes and reduce their longevity in this life, and wear horns and fur in the next life.

If as Xu Gongzi said, he does not know Confucianism, is not good at Zen theory, and disdains to seek advice, these words are slandering the Buddha and slandering the monks, and despising the saints. For the hell after death! The so-called sentient beings are difficult to treat people, and the poor monk refused to rap, because he was the nephew of the old protector, so he did not hesitate to give advice. ”

Xu Hao smiled silently, and said indifferently: "The young minister, the blood is in full bloom, and it is inevitable that he will not meet the current affairs." If I say that I will fall into hell, I can guarantee that he will not come to this point, and my teacher can rest assured. ”

The two of you said a word, which was obviously to make Xu Hao fearful. Then take refuge in the valley king or the Buddha gate.

Xu Hao sneered in his heart, such means are too indifferent to him, so we can see how the king of the valley Zhu Lu is! However, the theory of ghosts and gods is indeed too lethal to the ancients, and even scholars only dare to worship ghosts and gods and stay away.

Xu Hao crossed over not to believe in ghosts and gods, he respected the belief of the Han people, that is, the ancestors of heaven, and the gods of the ancestors were the real gods, and there was nothing else.

So Xu Hao smiled and said: "The reincarnation of hell is a Buddhist nonsense, even if there is a region, I have no reason to fall into it." I'm afraid that I will be uncertain in the future. Confused by heresy, it is unknowable to insult the ancestors if they make a mistake for a while. How? At present, I still know that I respect righteousness and avoid evil, and I do not believe in Buddhism and other demagogic religions. ”

Fayun's face turned red. He said loudly: "What you say clearly says that both the Buddha and the monk should fall into hell!" No matter if our monks are unknown to Confucianism, and my Buddha is a saint who was born in heaven and earth, you dare to slander. It's really unholy. And there is no need to talk about my Buddha's pure wisdom and wonderful circle, and the supernatural sense, that is, the world from the emperor and the beggar. There is no one who does not want to worship in the dust, bow and respect faith, but if I neglect my Buddha a little, Buddhism should be extinguished for a long time, why should it last forever? If you want to go at this point, it's time for you to nod your head! What more do you say? ”

At this moment, the heavy rain finally stopped, and some tourists were ready to take the painting boat to continue swimming in the lake, listening to the literati and monks arguing fiercely on the boat on the shore, and couldn't help but lean over to listen.

Xu Hao said coldly: "The traitorous monk uses the Buddha to fool the world, so that he does no evil, Buddhism is still good, the sin in the world, the only god is the first evil, and my evil Buddha is even worse than the evil monk."

Mencius said: The life of the world is long, and there is chaos in one rule. Therefore, the flood flowed across the world of Yao and Shun, and the beasts were filled with Wu and Zhou. The way of heaven and earth, yin and yang, can not be clear and obscure, there is spring but no autumn, there is life without killing, there is a gentleman but no villain, this is the real world, what heaven and hell, is pure nonsense.

I told you in detail that you don't understand, who will worship you? In the past, Buddhism was destroyed in Wei, then in Yuwen, three in Emperor Wu of the Later Zhou Dynasty, all the Buddha shrines were destroyed, Tang Shizong destroyed the statue to cast money, and the Lord of Wei killed Shamen, and killed it, where did the Buddha go at that time? Dare to come out and fart? Why didn't you use your magic power to save your disciples? Can you know that Shakyamuni is just an ordinary man, what kind of knowledge will he have when he is born?

Besides, Buddhism did not originate in China, so what's wrong with Lao Tzu not believing in Buddhism? The Buddha was born in Nepal and spread to India, you say that it will last forever? However, the Buddha was born after being a saint and entered China hundreds of years, so what qualifications does he have to boast of boundless power? Buddhism in India red and yellow factions are disputed with each other, the local Hinduism is dominant, such as today the Zhu people almost all believe in Brahman, Buddhism in the hometown has long been wiped out, don't you know? The Western Elysium realm is killing and killing all day long, and the Buddha is dead, so what qualifications do you have to preach in China? Why is your Buddha a soul gone? ”

Xu Hao said witty and violent, he was stunned when he didn't listen to it indifferently, he forgot to drink the wine, and the family members who served him were eavesdropping outside the window, and they had no intention of changing the wine and serving the food, even the boatman and the tourists outside were in their ears one by one, and they were full of relish, except for Xu Hao's voice.

Only Fayun couldn't listen to it, his face turned red and white, white and red, and the round fat head was like a pig's head poured with blood, and he laughed out in anger.

Xu Hao said disdainfully: "What are you laughing at?" Nowadays, our dynasty is not ready to destroy the Buddha and punish the monks, and most of the Buddhism and the way of Confucius and Mencius have the purpose of upholding people's hearts and stopping heresies. It is also considered that the merit is in the moment, and the teaching is in the eternity, and the lesser of the two evils is the lesser of the two. Therefore, the way of Confucius always exists, and Yang Mo's words are finally abolished, that is, your Buddha was very rampant before the Tang Dynasty, and now it is just like that, and it has been assimilated into a secular religion by my China. ”

I didn't want the monk to leave his seat, so he thanked Wei indifferently and said: "Although the poor monk has no learning, he has traveled all over the world since he was a child, and he has also traveled all over the famous mountains towards the five mountains, and sometimes he is greedy for beauty. I feel that outsiders practice Sanskrit practice and want to become a Buddha and an ancestor, but they are just empty words to deceive the world.

Over the years, I have enjoyed too much Qingfu in front of me, which is really a blessing in this life. The prince values worship as a mage, but he can be too complicated and too deep in the world, and he feels that his heart is turbid, even if he is in the mountains and forests, he has no intention of appreciating it. After entering Beijing, the nobles of the palace bowed and worshipped, and gradually became delusional, because they saw that the old protector was upright and upright, kind and benevolent, and now they were retiring from the forest, so the poor monks accompanied them on the lake, and washed their minds and customs.

I don't want Xu Gongzi to say that Buddhism is so hateful, so he argues a few words, don't the poor monks know that the sages and sages are compatible with learning, and include the Shi clan and the left side door? However, it is not a good thing for the son to be dominant, for two thousand years, Confucianism has flourished day by day, and all emperors and celebrities of the past dynasties are Confucian disciples. Nowadays, although the court is quiet, the government and the opposition are peaceful, but there is no fear of God and Buddha, sooner or later the struggle for power and profit is uncontrollable, thinking that Xu Gongzi holds the power and the poor monk does not dare to argue, Gongzi must have a policy to determine the country and the country, it is too late, so he will leave. ”

Xu Hao watched Fayun drift away like a master in the world, and said that Fayun was a smart person, seeing that his attitude was so clear, how could he dare to try to get involved in secular rights, running faster than a rabbit, it is estimated that the major Buddhist temples have already touched the nail in Yao Guangxiao.

It seems that the king of the valley is supported by Buddhism, which is somewhat interesting. (To be continued......)
