Chapter 193 Water Monkey(2/2)
"Because water monkeys belong to the animal realm, and there are many kinds of animal realms. The "Satipaṇṭhāna Sutra" says there are four billion species, and this water monkey is a kind of animal in the animal realm. In the animal realm, because of the five rebellions and ten evils, the soul is degraded and ignorant
, so the intelligence is not high, the life is muddled, and the natural evil spirit is evil, so it is suitable to steal treasures in some cemeteries, underworlds, and corpses. Moreover, water monkeys are living creatures and are not affected by the time or the evil-proof mechanism in the cemetery. They can be used at any time.
They follow the underground cemeteries to rob tombs. Moreover, water monkeys are small and thin, and are good at digging holes and drilling into the narrow tomb passages in mausoleums. Therefore, the treasure-hunting Taoist will train some little beast-like creatures, let them understand human nature, and steal treasures for them."
"And because these little creatures often hang out with people, and are refined by Taoist Taoists, over time, they will more or less imitate some of people's words, deeds, and facial features..."
After being reminded by the abbot of Bailong Temple, Jin An suddenly remembered that he had seen a story about a treasure-hunting Taoist in "Guangping Youshuo Synaesthesia".
But the Taoist treasure-hunting Taoist whom Guangping Sanren encountered was not a water monkey, but a pangolin.
One day, a group of people walking in Guangping met a village and encountered a landslide unexpectedly. Because the road ahead was blocked, they had to stay in the village temporarily.
While the San people in Guangping were staying in the village, they heard a strange thing in the village.
It is said that there is a family of hunters in the village who have been attacked by evil spirits recently.
This matter has to be moved forward half a year. Half a year before the Guangping San people came to the village, the hunter once went into the mountains and rescued a pangolin.
In order to repay the favor, the pangolin often brought some fruits or medicinal materials to visit the hunter.
The villagers all praised Orion as a man of good fortune who was cultivated by good people in three generations.
However, most of the medicinal materials in the mountains have been harvested by the villagers for generations, leaving only some common medicinal materials, so the medicinal materials given to the hunters by the pangolins in return are all ordinary medicinal materials.
Then one day, when a hunter went into the mountains to hunt, he accidentally broke his leg. This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the hunter who made a living by hunting.
Because Orion broke his leg, he was bedridden at home all day, and he had to spend a lot of money on medicine every day. As the saying goes, there is no filial son in bed for a long time, let alone when the disaster strikes, the husband and wife will fly away.
As Orion's wife couldn't stand the hard life after her husband broke his leg, and her husband became increasingly irritable after being bedridden for a long time, her wife took away the family's last savings and ran away with another man. The Orion was disheartened.
His temper became even more violent.
Only one pangolin never left him.
I came to visit him every day and brought him various medicinal materials.
But at this time, after experiencing a series of changes, the hunter's temperament changed drastically. He threw away those worthless ordinary medicinal materials, let pangolins catch the prey, let him sell money, let him have money to eat, and asked for a new life that was more beautiful than his predecessor.
The younger woman is back.
Since his leg is broken and he can no longer go hunting in the mountains, let the pangolin hunt for him and find all kinds of precious medicinal materials for him.
Orion said, don’t you want to repay your kindness?
Then repay the favor and show it to me.
Since then, the pangolin has brought all kinds of prey every day, including rabbits, foxes, wild badgers, pheasants, etc.
In addition to hunting prey for hunters to sell their fur, pangolins also bring back one or two precious medicinal herbs every day.
Unexpectedly, this hunter really made a fortune by relying on pangolins and remarried a beautiful girl.
It's just that his limp made him have an even weirder and more irritable temper. Even after remarrying Mei Jiao Niang, he still couldn't change his bad temper. Instead, it only got worse. In the end, even Mei Jiao Niang was beaten by him.
Ran away.
Now the hunters were stimulated and became even more strict with the pangolin, asking it to hunt more prey and find more precious medicinal materials every day.
In fact, there are no wild animals in the mountains.
Villagers in the same village discovered that pangolins had long emptied the animals in the mountains near the village. Even when hunting, they had to walk for days to find prey. Even the medicinal materials in the mountains had been hollowed out and eaten by pangolins.
They were dug up and given to hunters.
People have to travel for several days to find prey and medicinal materials, let alone this pangolin?
The villagers couldn't bear it and advised the hunter that this was the end of the matter. Don't do anything wrong.
Unexpectedly, the hunter didn't listen at all, and continued to ask pangolins to hunt for him, looking for ginseng, polygonum multiflorum, polygonatum and other precious medicinal materials.
The villagers couldn't stand it anymore, and they all advised the pangolin that you had repaid the favor enough, and there was no need to stay with the Orion to repay the favor.
However, pangolins still travel hundreds of miles every day, bringing prey and medicinal materials. Their bodies are getting thinner and thinner from overwork, and the villagers cannot bear to see them.
Orion is still heartless.
soon.
Retribution has come.
Several green hills near the village that should have been lush and green first had their springs cut off, and then the vegetation withered. The original green hills were gradually abandoned. In addition to being unable to reach prey, the villagers also had problems with drinking water.
Villagers began to flee and leave the mountain.
Some villagers said that all of this was retribution from the gods in the mountains. It was all the fault of the hunter who had done everything wrong, so the entire village had to suffer, which angered the gods in the mountains.
Just last night, the villagers heard screams suddenly coming from Orion's house. Orion was dead. A mudslide collapsed and buried Orion's house alive.
The villagers all said that this was retribution, and even God could not stand his viciousness.
A worthy death.
Guangping San people were surprised when they heard this, so he asked the villagers to take him to Orion's house. As soon as he arrived at Orion's house, he saw that the entire house was buried by the mudslide, and there was really a little creature digging hard on the mudslide.
Burrow into the ground.
It was the pangolin who repaid the favor.
The San people in Quang Binh looked at the pangolins that kept digging in the soil and were amazed. They couldn't help but admire that animals are more humane than people. Then they persuaded the pangolins that people cannot be resurrected after death, so be sorry and accept the change. The kindness you want to repay is far more than what he saved you.
The grace of one life is much greater.
Unexpectedly, the pangolin cried miserably, saying that it was originally a pangolin under the Taoist Duobao Taoist's seat. They were originally a male and a female. They followed the Taoist Duobao and did so many evil things. In the end, retribution came. Taoist Duobao was greedy.
, was buried under the mouth of a thousand-year-old evil corpse in a large tomb, and her husband was also implicated and died.
God has the kindness to give birth to a child, so he was pregnant, so he was the only one left to escape from the tomb.
It originally thought that it had finally escaped the clutches of the Taoist Treasure Snatcher, and that it would no longer be forced to go to the cemetery and do those evil things in this life.
Who would have known that just after escaping from the devil's clutches, it entered the tiger's mouth again, and when it gave birth to a baby and was seriously injured, it encountered the ruthless hunter, who threatened it with its cubs and forced it to hunt for him and dig for treasures.
It knew that it and the unborn child could escape the disaster because God had the virtue of good life, and it could not do any more evil things, otherwise neither mother nor child would escape the disaster in the end.
It is a creature in the mountain. If it helps people to harm other creatures in the mountain, what is the difference between this and helping the tyrants to harm others?
At first, it thought that by picking some random fruits and ordinary medicinal materials, it would be able to fool the problem into over.
Unexpectedly, after the Orion broke his leg, his temperament changed drastically. If he fooled around again, the Orion would strangle his young son to death with his own hands.
Pangolin, as a small beast refined by the treasure hunter Taoist, has been around people for many years, and has become familiar with human nature. It knows that the hunter is not telling lies this time, so it risks retribution and begins to help the hunter to help the evildoer and harm his kind in the mountains.
When the pangolin said this, he couldn't help crying again.
To say that it is also forced and helpless.
But God was unfair, why did he take the life of his youngest son in the end?
It just wants to save the life of its young son from the hands of evil people.
It has no intention of doing evil.
The real villain is the hunter.
The three Guangping people are Taoist monks. Only the two of them could understand the conversation between him and the pangolin. The other villagers did not hear the pangolin's words.
The pangolin became more and more sad and angry as he talked, and finally, holding the body of his young son, he bumped his head against a rock and died.
This incident had a great impact on Guangping Sanren and had a profound impact on his future "Tao".
Everything has spirituality.
