Just in the Middle, You Told Me This is Journey to the West

The reason is very simple, everyone in Chang'an City is stared at by the gods in the sky.

If you want to do something at this time, you will definitely be exposed to the eyes of gods or other people.

"Forget it, let's wait for a while, wait for Tang Seng to go west and leave the gate, then do it and leave Chang'an City!"

After getting such a hexagram, Chen Qi shook his head and smiled.

In fact, even without this hexagram, he still wouldn't do anything to Fang Yiai at this point in time.

He is not stupid, Chang'an City at this point in time is even more terrifying than the two sessions held in the capital of later generations.

Whoever dares to make trouble at this time, the great supernatural power of Buddhism will dare to kill him directly.

Moreover, as Li Shimin built the water and land conference in Chang'an 0.0 City, the list became popular all over the world, and after the edict was issued, officials from all over the place were ordered to select youdao eminent monks.

In less than a few days, Chang'an City was already running around with bald heads.

Looking around, the streets and alleys are full of bald heads begging for money, pulling people to preach the Dharma.

God knows how many Buddhist monks in the human world and Arhat Jialan in the heavenly world are reincarnated among these bald heads.

You have to dare to make trouble at this time.

There is no need for the Buddha to do anything, just the bald people in Chang'an City will let you know what the Buddha's mercy is.

It's not easy for them to be bald!

On weekdays, he eats vegetarian food and recites Buddha's name. He dare not drink wine or eat meat openly.

why?

Isn't it for the sake of becoming a Buddha as soon as possible and immortality?

Now I heard that there is a bodhisattva from the heavens in the city of Chang'an who came down to choose monks. If he can take this opportunity to perform well, he will fall into the eyes of some bodhisattva and go to the west with the bodhisattva to enjoy blessings.

How can I live a hard life in the world.

A rare opportunity!

Therefore, monks and friends, for the sake of performance, rush to duck! .

Chapter 97

As there are more and more bald people in Chang'an City, the people of Chang'an are also miserable, and the shopkeepers of the shops facing the street can't wait to close their doors directly.

There is no way, the eminent monks finally came to Chang'an City, you can't make people hungry, right?

Although the imperial court arranged accommodation for the monks who came to Chang'an City to participate in the Water and Land Conference, and provided food and clothing.

However, the eminent monk said it.

We all pay attention to people, even if we are starved to death, we will not eat the food that comes from us.

Cough cough, no, there are some strings of words.

The eminent monks said: "The Son of Heaven is wise, and he wants to build a water and land conference to save the world's wronged souls. This is an act of great benevolence and righteousness, great mercy and great compassion, and it should be regarded as a boundless merit.

The monks I waited for were fortunate enough to come to Chang'an to participate in the conference. I am extremely honored. How can I trouble the court and the current emperor, stay in a private Buddhist temple, and just make alms along the way. "

Li Shimin was also deeply moved when he heard this.

Look at other eminent Buddhist monks, their awareness is high, and their words are pleasant.

Obviously it was for Li Shimin to dispel the wronged souls and come to save his elder brother, fourth younger brother and other family members, but he just said that he was going to save the world's wronged souls for the common people of the world.

Well said, well said.

It's not like those people under my own hands, who know how to hate themselves all day long, and don't even understand the way of monarch and minister. 18

No, I have to quickly let the historians record it according to this statement, and then let my good courtiers take a good look and see how kind and compassionate I, Li Shimin, is.

Therefore, on the one hand, he instructed the left and right courtiers to satisfy all the requirements of the eminent monks, and on the other hand, he granted the request of the eminent monks and allowed them to alms in Chang'an City!

In the end, the historians were brought in, and they were asked to change the previous rhetoric and replace it with the words of the great virtuous and eminent monks.

Well, that would be perfect.

The only people suffering are the people of Chang'an City.

Meow, these monks come and go in waves, come in waves, come and go, it's endless.

The most helpless thing is that the eminent monks came to beg for alms, you can't let the eminent monks return empty-handed, right?

A few days ago, our Tang court just issued a new law, "But those who slander monks and Buddha, their arms will be cut off!"

If you don't ask for alms for eminent monks, is this looking down on eminent monks or you have opinions on Buddha?

If eminent monks come to your house for alms, they definitely think highly of you.

don't give?

Do you still want this arm?

Therefore, with such a king on the stand, the people of Chang'an City really suffer in their hearts!

There are also those shops, which are the key objects of care of eminent monks for alms.

If a shop opens, eminent monks will step over the threshold and line up to explain the Dharma to the shopkeeper, hoping that the shopkeeper will invite a Buddha and Bodhisattva back to the town house.

What, you said that your family is a believer and you don’t want to invite Bodhisattvas?

Just ask if you still want this arm?

Of course, the real eminent monks of the Tang Dynasty are also very pursuing, especially those eminent monks of great virtue.

What are the low-level people and shopkeepers in Chang'an City?

These are the lower class.

If you just preach the Dharma to these people and let these people fall into the arms of the Buddha, what is the ability?

How can they show the advanced professional level of their eminent monks?

If you don't show your advanced professional level, how can you get into the eyes of the Bodhisattva and let the Bodhisattva take you to the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss?

Therefore, the real virtuous and eminent monks all set their targets on the dignitaries and officials of Chang'an City.

There is nothing to say, the government offices and the palace compound walked up.

Don't ask, asking is to beg for alms and spread Buddhism according to the order.

What, you don't want to hear it, why don't you let eminent monks in?

He meowed, and asked you if you still want your arm.

........

Jinchengfang, the small courtyard where Chen Qi lived.

"Master, why don't we also go to Huichang Temple and ask the Bodhisattva to let us in at the door!"

"Today is the thirteenth wave of eminent monks coming to alms alms. If we come again, we will really eat dirt."

"Yesterday, I heard from the neighbor next door that as long as we go to the door of the Qingzun Bodhisattva in Huichang Temple, foreign monks will not come to us for alms."

After sending away a group of eminent monks who came to beg for alms again, the little book boy Chen An couldn't bear it any longer, and went to the study to complain to Chen Qi.

Hearing this, Chen Qi couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Good guy, what do you mean by listening to this, why do you charge protection fees the same as Young and Dangerous Boys?

This Jinchengfang is covered by Huichang Temple. As long as you go to Huichang Temple to invite the Bodhisattva back and pay the protection fee to Huichang Temple, you don't have to worry about monks from other areas coming to alms.

Really good guy ha!

The way of the monks of the Tang Dynasty has really gone farther and farther.

There is still half a month before the Water and Land Conference.

If we really want to go to the back, I don't know if there are any monasteries that will fight for the territory.

Chen Qi was speechless, but he didn't plan to have trouble with the Buddhist eminent monks at this time.

If you invite a Bodhisattva, please invite a Bodhisattva.

Anyway, it is to enlarge the door, not to put the study.

It is also good to have a Bodhisattva watching the gate.

I don't know how the Bodhisattva's effect of looking at the gate is. Don't stop the thief at that time, but the Bodhisattva was stolen by the thief.

Chen Qi thought for a while, and planned to spend money to avoid disaster, and asked, "How do you invite the Bodhisattvas of Huichang Temple? Is there any explanation?"

When the little book boy heard the words, he said what he was about to inquire about, "Aunt Chen in the nearby yard said that the eminent monks of Huichang Temple will determine which Bodhisattva to invite according to the family conditions of the people in Chang'an, and how big the Bodhisattva should be."

"Families at the bottom, just ask a three-inch bodhisattva to hang on the door. The price is not high, only ninety-nine dollars."

"Ordinary families will invite a six-inch bodhisattva to hang on the door, and the price is nine hundred and ninety-nine yuan."

"A wealthy family invites a nine-inch Bodhisattva, and the price is nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine."

"Above that is the special family, the family of powerful officials. The eminent monks of Huichang Temple will send special monks to send the Bodhisattva. The price is usually at the discretion of the master. The more you give, the more respect you will have for the Bodhisattva."

Chen Qi: "..."

He meowed 507, which ghost monk thought up this note.

If you have the brains, you don't go to the imperial examination to benefit the people, but to be a monk.

Even if you don't want to be an official, you can become a merchant, so why do you have to be a monk?

Isn't this a scourge!

Could it be that there are so many talents in Buddhism now?

Really, the clown is in the palace, and the master is in the folk!

I don't know what the bodhisattvas who were invited home will think after knowing this.

The Bodhisattva who co-authored me can still clearly mark the price according to the size!

Chen Qi was speechless, thought for a while and asked: "Then what kind of family are we? Is it an ordinary family or a wealthy family?"

After he finished speaking, he also felt that it was meaningless to discuss this matter, so he directly said to Chen An: "Forget it, go to Huichang Temple and ask the Nine-inch Bodhisattva to come back. This Nine-inch Bodhisattva should be able to show our respect for Bodhisattvas." .”
