Chapter 225

The Thousand Buddha Temple is not very far from the capital city. With the foot strength of a Chollima, within half an hour, the scenery in front of him suddenly opened up.

Clean and tidy stone slabs are paved all the way down the wide steps, and at the end of the hundreds of steps, a majestic temple with ocher-yellow walls surrounded by cigarettes comes into view.

Climbing up the steps, it didn't take long before a magnificent vision appeared in front of my eyes.

The stacked circles of yellow walls and blue tiles delineate a large flat land, and the two Wei Tuo Bodhisattvas standing opposite each other in front of the Buddhist temple are even more mighty and extraordinary.

The gate of the temple is wide open, and you can see a Maitreya Buddha sitting on the altar, with a fat body and a big belly, smiling often, as if reading all the pleasures in the world.

He didn't bring all his subordinates to the temple, Pei Miaode relied on his martial arts, and also wanted to go to the temple as a disciple of Buddha to see if the Thousand Buddha Temple was really as ugly as the rumors said.

Hearing the movement of pilgrims going up the mountain, the two welcoming monks in front of the gate were overjoyed, and greeted them from the mountain gate, one on the left and one on the right.

Today's Pei Miaode, because of concealing the abnormality of his cultivation technique, has long flowing hair, looks no different from ordinary pilgrims on the mountain.

The Zhike monk didn't think about it elsewhere.

"This believer looks quite unfamiliar, but is this the first time you come to Bi Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha?"

People rely on clothes, Buddha depends on gold clothes, Pei Miaode's clothes are made of exquisite materials, they are all made of cloud brocade bestowed by the palace, just a palm-sized piece is worth ten gold.

The monk looked carefully, and he had already equated Pei Miaode with the nobles in the court in his heart, so he couldn't help becoming more enthusiastic.

"I'm always busy with work, but He Jiaci always likes to talk about it, so I insist on paying homage to the Buddha for her in the monastery. I don't know if Master can make it easier for me."

Pei Miaode's words were not wrong.

He has been married to Yunyao for five years and has no heirs so far. Queen Shanyin also complains about this.

It's just that this kind of thing doesn't depend on human will. Both Pei Miaode and Yun Yao are monks in the inner scene period. They have solid roots, and coupled with the different paths of the monsters, it is extremely difficult to give birth to an heir smoothly.

Although Yunyao has a way to influence people's cognition, but there are many people in the palace with mixed eyes, and they can't cover everything, so every time Queen Shanyin is nagging, she will give her a hint to let her subconsciously ignore this topic.

"A benevolent and kindhearted believer like Ling Ci will definitely be rewarded in the future. Your Excellency can occupy a high position at a young age, which is enough to see that there must be more celebrations in the family of good deeds."

To be able to become a monk who knows guests, he has a lot of words, and a few or two sentences have the meaning of persuading Pei Miaode to Buddha.

The key is to say it without showing any traces, which makes people sound very comfortable.

"Benefactor, please go this way."

Seeing that Pei Miaode didn't move, nor was he discouraged, the monk changed the subject very naturally.

As the two stepped over the threshold, the flourishing incense made the whole temple shrouded in misty white smoke, making it even more like sitting on a cloud.

Different from the few people seen along the way, there are already groups of pilgrims climbing up the steps before the time of day.

Weng women, women and children, literati, merchants, all kinds of people, holding a few sticks of lighted incense sticks in their hands, prostrating every five steps, and praising the Buddha reverently in their mouths.

The Zhike monk who accompanied Pei Miaode was obviously a famous person in the temple, no matter who met him, he would warmly come forward to say hello, and the Zhike monk would also stop and chat a few words in the same familiar way.

"Little monk Chang Zhou, I haven't asked the benefactor's name, but I have neglected the honored guest."

Sending off some acquaintances, Monk Chang Zhou seemed to remember something, and said apologetically to Pei Miaode.

"It's okay, my surname is Pei, and I used to spend a period of time in the temple to clean up."

"Senior brother Chang Zhou sees kindness with all sentient beings and has a bodhisattva's enthusiasm, so how can you be negligent?"

The Master Chang Zhou in front of him, no matter how he treats people, or solves problems with pilgrims, he does everything. He even treats the poor with scantily-clothed clothes equally.

"Is it really Buddha face to face?!"

Pei is the surname of the country, and there are even a few people who become monks and return to the vulgar. Monk Chang Zhou immediately thought of the third prince who was reincarnated by the Buddha.

This person is also a person who is well-read and memorized, and he is naturally very impressed with the day when the Buddha was born.

Even his master, who has passed away, was the one who assisted Zen Master Wuwang at the beginning. He fought against the supernatural monster with his own strength, and finally he was able to retreat completely.

"The Buddha's son came to the world to save people and universalize all living beings. It is an act of great perseverance and great ambition. I would never dare to be a senior brother like this."

Master Chang Zhou recited the Buddha's name, and treated Pei Miaode with even more respect.

"Pilgrims are human beings, monks are human beings, and Buddhist disciples are also human beings. How can there be any difference between superiority and inferiority? If you can break through the confusion in your heart and let go of your obsessions, then everyone will be a true Buddha on earth. "

Pei Miaode felt a little helpless when he looked at Master Chang Zhou who seemed to be a different person all of a sudden.

"Young monk, keep in mind the teachings of the Buddha."

Although Master Chang Zhou said so, his attitude did not change at all.

Not long after, the news of the Buddha's visit to Qianfo Temple spread among the monks. Even the current abbot, Master Changmu, couldn't sit still. The brothers greeted the Buddha himself.

"Gossip will be avoided. I am here this time not as a three-burial monk, but as an official of the imperial court and the head of the Shenyao Division. If you want to make friends, please wait for the official business. .”

Seeing that things were getting serious, Pei Miaode simply did not hide his identity anymore.

"Buddha, if Master Pei has any doubts, please tell me, but it's okay. Monks don't tell lies. If the monks of my Thousand Buddha Temple really planted the evil fruit, I am willing to bear the same fault as them."

Master Chang Mu looked quite frank.

"Miao De asked the Master for advice. I don't know where the saying that the Avalokitesvara Guanyin is sent by your temple comes from, but there are restless monks who use the name of Bodhisattva to do things that violate the precepts?"

Pei Miaode didn't play sloppy, and asked straight to the point.

Several old monks with white beard and hair looked at me and I looked at you, and after making eye contact, Master Chang Mu said again.

"I want my lord to know that most of the monks in the temple practice pure cultivation. Except for the monks, they don't even touch meat or poultry. How could they commit such a serious offense as lust and precepts?"

"However, the matter of giving away the son is also true. If outsiders are here, maybe the old monk will be a little sloppy. Since the Buddha's disciple is in front of him, what can I not say?"

Monk Chang Mu first denied the rumor that the arhat gave birth to a child, but then he revealed a secret in the temple.

"The incense in this temple is all because of the success of sending children. It is not the monks in the temple who are cultivating evil fruits. It is because the master left a sacrificial vessel before his death. It is called a lotus pond. Every three years, there are one hundred and eight seeds. There are many children. The function of blessing."
