Chapter 57 Kaiyuan Book Qianjin Xishe Opera Diaolan Smile Back Anger

The poem said: "The root of the wild temple is a stone wall, and the niches are all over Cui Wei."The former Buddha is no longer recognized, and his body is covered with berry moss.

Only the ancient palace remains, and the World Honored One is also dusty.If you hear a dragon and an elephant weeping, it is enough to make believers mourn.

The public is the leader of the soldiers, and he is aggressive and open.I know that there are many Luo trees, but they lean on the lotus platform.

The heavens will be happy, and ghosts will never be suspected.

It is said that there has always been a Yongfu Temple in Dongping Prefecture, Shandong Province. It was built in the second year of Emperor Wu of Liang, and it was founded by the ancestor of Wanhui.Why is it called Wanhui Patriarch?Because when the ancestor was a child, he was only seven or eight years old. There was a brother who joined the army, and he couldn't hear or hear, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.His old mother thought about the big child and often cried at home.Suddenly one day, the child asked his mother, saying: "Mother, our family can survive this peaceful world. Why do we shed tears? Mother, if you tell us, we can share our worries."

The old lady said: "Children, how do you know? Since your old man passed away, your elder brother went to the side to become an officer. For four or five years, there is no letter. I don't know if he is alive or dead. Teach me how to hang myself." !"

Say, cry again.The child said: "It's been like this for a long time, what's so difficult! Mother, where is brother now? We are younger brothers, and we will go to find brother sooner or later, ask for a letter, and reply to your old man, isn't it good?"

The mother-in-law laughed while crying, and said, "Strange idiot, if your brother travels a hundred or two hundred miles, he can go straight to the land of Liaodong. If he goes here for more than [-] miles, even a good man will walk four or four miles." It’s only been five months, how did you get to your baby’s house?”

The child said: "Hey, if it is in Liaodong, it will not be in the sky. I will go to find my brother and return."

I saw him fasten the shoes, straighten the straps, and watch the mother-in-law make a bow and go away.The mother-in-law didn't respond to her call, and she couldn't catch up with her, which made her even more depressed.Neighbors, neighbors, mothers-in-law and women also came to persuade, saying: "The child is young, how can I go so far? I will return by myself sooner or later."

Therefore, the mother-in-law sat down with tears in her eyes.Seeing the red sun sinking to the west, the mother-in-law looked out, only to see a small child coming in the dark shadow in the distance.The mother-in-law said: "It depends on the sky and the earth, and on the sun and the moon. If my youngest son comes, it will not be in vain for me to practice vegetarianism."

I saw that Wanhui ancestor suddenly knelt in front of him and said, "Mother, are you still awake? We have gone to Liaodong to search for my brother, and we got a letter from home."

The mother-in-law laughed and said, "Boy, it's just right if you don't go, so you don't need to worry about my old man. Just don't worry about coaxing my old lady. How about a thousand-mile journey to return day and night?"

The boy said, "Mother, don't you believe me?"

He kept unloading his clothes and bags, and took out the letter from Ping'an's family. It was indeed written by his brother.I took out another undershirt and took it back to be washed. It was also sewn by my mother-in-law, and it was not bad.Therefore, the neighbors were aroused, and they were called "Wanhui". In the future, they gave up the vulgar and became a monk, and they were called "Elder Wanhui".He once swallowed two liters of iron needles in front of Emperor Shihu of Later Zhao, and took out three relics from the top of his head in His Royal Highness Liang Wuhuang.Therefore, Yongfu Temple was ordered to be built as an incense house for the ancestors of Wanhui, and I don't know how much money was spent on food.It is exactly: the divine monk is born with great supernatural powers, and the holy master is respected and holy.

I don't want time to fly by, time changes and things change.When the ten thousand ancestors passed away, some skinny and fleshy monks disappeared one by one.There are only a few tired monks, raising wives, eating soju, and doing nothing!In a few days, the cassocks were also pawned, the bells and chimes were pawned, and the rafters, bricks and tiles in the hall were exchanged for wine.It was raining and windy, and the Buddha statue fell down. It was desolate and desolate, and suddenly turned a piece of bell and drum ashram into barren smoke and decaying grass.In 40 to [-] years, which one is willing to help the decline!I don't want to have a Taoist elder who was originally from the West Indian country. Because of his admiration for China's Tsinghua University, he traveled from Liushahe and Xingxiuhai for eight or nine years before he came to China.When he came to Shandong, Zhuoxi stayed in this dilapidated temple, facing the wall for nine years, without saying a word. The truth is: there is no language barrier in Buddhism, and kung fu can be better and better.

Suddenly one day, I had a thought and said: "Ah, this monastery has collapsed into disreputable shape. It's a pity that these stupid donkeys can only eat wine and rice, and make this ancient Buddhist ashram red and white. !To this day, we don’t decide, who decides? We don’t come out, who comes out? In Shandong, there is a senior official from Ximen, who holds the position of Jinyi. Let's set up a banquet here. Seeing the ruins of the temple, he has a meaning of rebuilding the tripod. If he is the one who advocates, it will be good for us sooner or later. We have to go for a walk."

At that time, the disciples and grandchildren of the Fa were called up, the bells and drums were played, and the masses were gathered to go to the hall to publicize this idea.How did the elder dress up?But see: the Zen clothes on his body are stained with orangutan blood, and the double ring hanging ears are gold.The tin stick in your hand is as bright as a mirror, and the hundred and eight pearls shine brightly.

Open up the cash rope of Ming Road, and wake up the dream of ordinary people.Pang eyebrows with cyanotic hair and copper bell eyes, the Tao is the old holy monk of the Western Paradise.

After the elder preached, he asked Xingzhe to take the four treasures of the study and write an essay.Good elder, it is really an ancient Buddha and Bodhisattva appearing.So he resigned from the public, put on Zen shoes and a bamboo hat, and went straight to Ximenqing's house.

Let’s say that Ximenqing bid farewell to Earl Ying, went to Wu Yueniang’s room, and told about Earl Ying’s recommendation of a scholar in the water, and said: “We went to Tokyo the day before yesterday, and many relatives and friends came with us to hold the cup. I have to drink to answer him. When I have free time today, I will finish this matter."

Immediately, I called Dai'an and ordered the comprador to eat food and so on.He also ordered the servants to invite everyone separately.While pulling Yue Niang, she went to Li Ping'er's room to see Brother Guan.Li Ping'er caught it with a smile, and asked Naizi to bring out Brother Guan.I saw that the eyebrows and eyes were sparse, like makeup made of powder, smiling happily, and went straight to Yueniang's arms.Yue Niang took her hands, hugged her and said: "My son, you are so cute, you will be smart when you grow up."

Then he said to the child, "Son, when you grow up, you will serve your mother like this!"

Li Ping'er said: "Mother said that. If the son grows up, if he asks for an official position, he will be bestowed on the head first. The Fengguan Xiapei will go to the mother first."

Ximen Qing interjected and said, "Son, when you grow up, you can earn a job as a civil servant. Don't be like your old man who is Spanish-born. Although you are interested, you don't respect it very much."

As she was talking, she didn't want Pan Jinlian to hear it from outside, so she felt angry from her heart, and scolded: "Shameless, stinking whore, you know how to raise a son! Never had three Huangmei, four Xia Zhi, he never grew up to be fifteen or sixteen years old, passed the test when he was young, went to school to study, was still a blister, and was raised here with King Yama, so he became an official and bestowed on the old lady? It's a thief who has no roots. Shameless people, you can become civil servants, don't be like you!"

When he was nagging, muttering, scolding, and annoyed at the same time, Dai'an came in and called "Wu Niang" and said, "Where is Dad?"

Pan Jinlian scolded: "Strange sharp-mouthed thief Genzi, where is your father? Why did you come to my house? He has a five-flowered grandma, an old lady, eight treasures and five tripods. Those who serve him are there, and there are those who ask me to beg!"

Then Dai'an knew that it was not the way, so she looked into Liuniang's room and left.Walked to the door, coughed, and said to Ximen Qing: "Ying Er is in the hall."

Ximen Qing said: "Your second father sent him there. What are you doing?"

Dai'an said: "Father will know when he goes out."

Ximenqing had no choice but to leave Yueniang and Li Ping'er behind and went outside.Seeing the earl, he was about to ask a question, only to see that the elder Taoist who was recruiting fate had already arrived at the head of Ximen Qingmen.Loudly shouted: "Amitabha! Is this the head of Ximen Daddy's gate? The housekeeper in charge told me and said: Help Guizi, Baolansun, pray for blessings and blessings, and longevity." ──Tokyo Recruitment to see the elders."

It turned out that Ximen Qingping was originally a man who spread money and was a new official brother. He was very happy in his heart and wanted to do some good things to protect his children.The boys knew it all, and they didn't make any trouble, so they went to report to Ximen Qing.Ximen Qing said, "Let him come in and take a look."

After a while, the elder was invited to enter the flower hall, made an inquiry, and said: "The poor monk was born in the West Indies, and he traveled to Bianliang, Tokyo. Zhuoxi lived in Yongfu Temple for nine years, and he passed on his impressions. The Temple of Nayu collapsed, and the Palace of Lin collapsed. The poor monk remembered that as a disciple of the Buddha, he should contribute to the Buddha. Therefore, the poor monk came up with this idea. The old Tanyue was mourning the ruin of the temple the day before yesterday. Conscience and good belly, you want to be the master of this temple. At that time, all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have made a witness alliance. The Buddhist scriptures written by the Poor Monk said well: If there are good men and good women in the world who sacrifice the solemn Buddha statue with money, the Lord will be honored. Lansun, who is dignified and beautiful, will be enthroned early in the future, and her son will be her wife. Therefore, I knocked on the high door, not limited to five hundred and one thousand, and asked Lao Tanna to open his mind and achieve good results."

He unfolded the brocade handkerchief, took out the collection book, and handed it over with both hands.I don't want to think that those words have already moved Ximen Qing's heart, and he happily accepted the booklet without realizing it, and asked the young man to watch tea.When I opened the sparse book, I saw that it was written: Fu used the white horse camel scripture to open the elephant religion, and Zhu Tengyan's method opened the sect.All the monks in the earth are all converted to the Buddha; the three thousand worlds are all blue and solemn.Seeing how the rubble has collapsed, it has become a famous mountain and scenic spot?If you are not merciful, joyful and generous, how can you call yourself a Buddhist and benevolent person?Today there is Yongfu Temple, the ancient Buddhist temple, and the place of burning and repairing blessings.It was built by Emperor Wu of Liang, and the founder of the mountain is the ancestor of Wanhui.The rules and regulations are grand, as if the golden pavement for the lonely garden; the carved buildings are exquisite, vaguely like the white jade steps of Huanshe.The high pavilion is empty, and the sandalwood air is directly on the sky; the foundation is deep, and the Daxiong Hall can accommodate thousands of Zen monks.The two wings are majestic, and they are full of Lingong and Qingyu; the corridors are clean, and they are indeed better than the cave.The clock drums proclaim that the Tao is the Buddha Kingdom in the whole world; only this dragon flows to Chu, but it is also like the world of humans and heaven.I don't know that the years are long, and things change in a flash.The reckless monk indulges in drinking and drinking, breaking the rules; the stupid Taoist is lazy and sleepy, and can't clean up.It gradually becomes lonely and cuts off disciples; it becomes desolate and rarely looks up.It is also eroded by birds and mice, which can be shaken by wind and rain.The buildings are destroyed, one is two, two is three, supporting the exhaustion; the walls are collapsing, day after day, year after year, there is no one left.Zhu Hongling, picked up to simmer wine and tea; embraced the pillars, and exchanged salt for rice.The wind blows the Arhat and the gold disappears, and the rain beats Amitabha into dust.Wow!Jin Bikun dazzles, once it becomes a bushy hazel.Although there are successes and failures, there must be success in the end.Fortunately, Elder Youdao was so pious that he couldn't bear to see the ruins of Brahma Palace.Make great vows and kowtow at Tanna all over the place.Volunteer to be kind and compassionate.Beams, columns, rafters, and couplets, regardless of size, are happy to be high-inscribed with surnames;Relying on the mighty spirit of the Buddha, blessings and longevity will last for hundreds of years and thousands of years; relying on his Garan mirror, father, son and grandson will all be rich and high-ranking officials.The melons are endless, and the trees are tall, with three locust trees and five osmanthus trees;Whatever you seek is auspicious.When Shuwen arrives, everyone breaks his heart.Please be careful.

Ximenqing finished reading it, put it on the table respectfully, and said to the elder: "To tell you the truth, although I am not a family, I have tens of thousands of property, and I live in a military position. I don't want to be so old and have never given birth to a son. I intend to do something Good fruit. Last year, the sixth house gave birth to a child, and everything is enough for us. Occasionally, because I gave it to my friend, I got it above. Seeing that the temple has collapsed, I really have the idea of ​​donating money to help build it. Mr. Meng Gu, how dare you refuse!"

Holding the Rabbit Brush, while hesitating, Earl Ying said: "Brother, since you have such kindness to make a wish for your nephew, why not do it yourself, it is also a trivial matter."

Ximen Qing held a pen and said with a smile: "Weak, weak."

The earl said again: "It's rare to help a thousand."

Ximen Qing laughed again: "Weakness, weakness."

The elder opened his mouth and said: "Old Tanyue is above, it's not that poor monks talk too much, our Buddhist behavior, as long as we follow the fate and give up, we will not force others, but it will be done according to the old man's intention. Besides, relatives and friends, we also ask Tanyue to brag and brag. .”

Ximenqing said: "It's still the teacher's size. It's nothing less, so just write 500 taels."

Putting down the rabbit hair pen, the elder sent an inquiry and thanked him.Ximen Qing also said: "I am here with eunuchs, eunuchs, and warehouse inspectors in prefectures and counties. All of them are friends with me. I will take the booklet tomorrow and ask them to write it. If you write it, it doesn't matter if it is three hundred or two hundred or one hundred and fifty. Love and teachers have accomplished this good thing.”

On that day, the elders stayed in Suzhai and sent them out.It is exactly: be compassionate and do good family affairs, protect the blessings and eliminate disasters of parents.

Ximen Qing saw the elder off, went to the hall, sat on the ground with Earl Ying, and said, "I was about to send someone to invite you, and you came just in time. I went to Tokyo the day before yesterday, thank you all my relatives and friends for sharing the cup with us. Everyone replied that they wanted the second elder brother to accompany him here, and they didn't want to meet this elder, so they fooled around for a while."

The count said: "What an elder, I think he is really virtuous. While he was speaking, even our hearts were moved and he became a benefactor."

Ximen Qing said, "When did you come to be a benefactor? When was the sparse book written?"

Earl Ying laughed and said, "Brother, you don't know that the most important thing in Buddhist scriptures is the gift of the heart, the second is the gift of the law, and the third is the gift of money. Could it be that I did it from the sidelines, so it's not a gift of the heart?"

Ximen Qing smiled and said, "Second brother, I'm afraid you have no intentions."

The two clapped their hands and laughed, Earl Ying said: "The younger brother is here to wait for the guests to come. Brother has a business to discuss with his sister-in-law."

I saw Ximen Qing bid farewell to the earl, went to the inner courtyard, saw that Pan Jinlian was nagging, unresponsive, unknowingly stalked by the Sandman, sneezed a few times, walked into the room, and fell on the ivory bed. Fell asleep in bed.Li Ping'er cried for the child again, and sat on the floor in the room with her nanny and maid, watching Brother Guan.Only Wu Yueniang and Sun Xue'e watched the whole thing.Ximen Qing went to sit in front of him, and explained in detail about Elder Dao's relationship with him.He also said Earl Ying's jokes.Joyfully, everyone laughed for a while.After all, Wu Yueniang was a decent person, so she said a few words in a leisurely manner, and it was Ximen Qing who hit the nail on the head.It's just that: every time the wife and virtuous go to the cock to call the police, they often hear the words of medicine and stone.

Yueniang said: "Brother, you are so lucky that you gave birth to a child. You have kind thoughts again. Isn't it a blessing for my family to form a good relationship! It's just that I don't have many good thoughts and I don't fear him much. Endless. Brother, in the future, you don’t go back and forth, raise your wife in a serious way, and you don’t get greedy for money and lust. Don’t do a few things, but don’t do some evil work, it’s good with that child!”

Ximen Qing smiled and said: "Your jealous talk is coming again. But you don't know that there are yin and yang in the world, and men and women naturally cooperate. Those who cheat and have sex in this life are all determined in the previous life. They are named in the marriage book, and they will return in this life." Could it be that it was made by thorns and hu [扌chu] messing around? We heard that the Buddha in the Western Paradise only needed gold to pave the ground, and the ten halls of the underworld also needed some grievances. We just need to use up this family Doing good deeds privately, even raped Chang'e, Zhinv, abducted Xu Feiqiong, and stole the daughter of Queen Mother of the West, and my wealth will not be reduced."

Yue Niang said with a smile: "Dogs eat hot excrement, it turns out that it is sweet; raw blood falls in the teeth, how can we change it!"

While laughing, I saw Aunt Wang and Aunt Xue carrying a box, rushing in, inquiring about Yueniang, and bowing to Ximen Qing, saying, "Father, you are lying at home."

Yueniang offered to sit down.The judge heard that this Aunt Xue was not a monk since she was a child. She married her husband when she was young and sold steamed cakes in front of Guangcheng Temple.Unexpectedly, the business was shallow, and he flirted with the monks and Xingtong in the temple, flirted with each other, and got involved four, five or six times.There are often some steamed buns for offerings to him, and the money that should be paid to buy flowers with him, open the cloth of hell, and give him to bind his feet.Where does his husband know!Later, her husband got sick and died, and he became an aunt because of his familiarity with Buddhism.Focus on dealing with scholars and wives' homes, and take care of scriptures and repentance.There are also those women who are not motivated and want to steal men, ask him to lead them.Hearing that Ximenqing's family is wealthy and has many concubines, he thought of abducting some money, so he came and went frequently.There is a song that is well said: The nun is born with a smooth scalp, and the monk Tuozi is busy every night.

The three bald heads look like master and senior brother, but why are the cymbals in the bed?
Aunt Xue sat down, opened the small box, and said, "If we don't have any filial piety, we have the right to present a few fruits for the Buddha's offering to the master's family."

Yue Niang said: "If you want to come, you can do it yourself, why bother you!"

I saw Pan Jinlian sleeping, heard someone talking outside, and thought it was the previous scene, so I went to listen to it.Seeing Li Ping'er playing with the children in the room, knowing that Aunt Wang is here, she also wants to discuss with him to protect Brother Guan.Because they went to Yueniang's room together.Say hello to everyone and sit down.When Ximen Qing saw Li Ping'er coming, he said something about the elder's fate of raising money with his family to open a house and pray for blessings for his elder brother.Not wanting to annoy Pan Jinlian, she pulled away and walked away, muttering, and went by herself.When Aunt Xue heard this, she stood up, clasped her hands together and shouted, "Buddha! Daddy, you are so kind-hearted, I am afraid that you will live a thousand years, five men and two women, and the seven sons will be reunited. But I have one more thing to say." With you old man──this cause and effect cost is not much, and you will gain immeasurable blessings. Hey, old Tanyue, you have gained some of this merit, that is, the old Gautan Snow Mountain practiced Taoism, Kasyapa paved the ground, and the second patriarch threw himself into the cliff. Hu, giving an old man all over the place gold is nothing compared to your merit!"

Ximen Qing said with a smile: "Please sit down and talk about the results in detail, and I will follow you."

Aunt Xue said: "Our Buddha left a volume of "Dharani Sutra" dedicated to exhorting people to live in the Western Pure Land. Because the ordinary people with naked eyes are not born with respect and faith, so the Buddha lectured on this sutra and advised you to concentrate on reciting Buddha, and you will go to the West and never fall. Reincarnation. The Buddha said it well. If someone keeps and recites this sutra, or prints and copies this sutra, and persuades one person to tens of thousands of people to recite it, he will receive immeasurable blessings. Moreover, there is "Sutra of Protecting All Boys" in this sutra. Anyone who has a man and a woman must make up his mind from this point of view, so that it will be easy to grow and support, and disasters will come to an end. Now this set of scriptures is only printed and implemented. Dad only needs to use some materials to print thousands of volumes, and the binding is completed. , to give universally to the ten directions. That kind of merit is really great.”

Ximen Qing said: "It's not difficult, I just don't know how many paper slips, how many bindings, and how many printings are needed for this volume of scriptures. Only when there is a detailed number can we move it."

Aunt Xue said again: "Father, go there and count him carefully, stop paying nine taels of silver first, and ask the scripture workshop to print tens of millions of volumes, complete the binding, and pay him back as soon as you stir up the results later. "

While talking lively, I saw that Chen Jingji was going to talk to Ximen Qing, and when he found it under the rolling shed, he just happened to meet Pan Jinlian leaning on the railing to worry.Suddenly raised his head and saw Jingji, it was like a cat seeing fresh fish and rice, unknowingly changing the melancholy of the day into a spring breeze.Seeing that no one came, the two held hands and cuddled each other, smacking their lips and tongues.The two were stubborn for a while, and they were afraid that Ximen Qing would bump into him when he came out, so they didn't even mention the matter of settling accounts.One pair of eyes is like a mouse to guard against cats, looking left and right, but it is inconvenient to do things, so I have to go out in a hurry.

Let's say that Ximenqing heard Aunt Xue's words, and unconsciously moved his kindness again, so he asked Dai'an to take out the worship box, took out a silver coin, and gave it to Aunt Xue and Aunt Wang: "Even if we go to the scripture workshop together Here, print 30 volumes of scriptures with me, and when the time is over, I will find him as a debt."

During the conversation, I saw the book boy hurriedly came to report: "All the invited guests have arrived."

Uncle Wu, Uncle Hua, Xie Xida, and Chang Zhijie are indispensable.Ximen Qing hurriedly dressed and went out to welcome Shengtang.He asked the young man to set down the table, and asked all the people to divide into shifts and ranks, each talking about the elders and younger ones.After a while, big fish, big meat, and fashionable fruits will be brought out together.When you meet a confidant in wine, you forget all your appearance.Guessing, playing drums, pushing flowers, three punches and two lies, singing songs, singing songs, endless scenes of youthful scenes, can't be said to be drunk in the sun and the moon.It is exactly: autumn moon and spring flowers are everywhere, and the pleasures are the same at this time.
