Chapter 442 Thunderbolt Bodhisattva
Li Qingcheng asked, "What are the hands and feet?"
The sweeping monk hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe I am worried too much. It's not too early and it's getting late. Mr. Li and his wife should take a break soon."
Li Qingcheng folded his hands together, bowed to the sweeping monk, and left the Main Hall.
After he left, the sweeping monk slowly came to the villa in the back mountain.
In the other courtyard, Master Xuanyin, the abbot of Shaolin, was standing in the courtyard at this moment, as if deducing something. This Master Xuanyin is burly, with a face like a red sandalwood, and has a very distinctive eyes. He was once a hot temper. He once made a nickname in the world: Pili Bodhisattva. After taking charge of Shaolin, he practiced and meditated for many years, and was full of heart. Now he has less sternness and more wisdom in his eyes.
Seeing the sweeping monk, Master Xuanyin continued to rise and greet him, "Uncle Master, are you sure?"
The sweeping monk nodded, "Eight out of ten."
"Then why do you still have to pass on her Nine Yang secret?"
The monk sweeping the floor sighed, "Isn't it accumulating merit in the world in the future? How was the Bodhidharma's relics formation prepared?"
Xuanyin said seriously, "If nothing unexpected happens, tomorrow will be fine."
He looked back.
The four pillars of heaven stand on the four corners of Shaoshi Mountain. Ordinary people think it is just a scenic spot in Shaolin Temple. If you understand some Feng Shui and geomantic geography, you will find the wonders. These four pillars of heaven seem to be different. The tops of the pillars are aimed at the four major constellations in the sky, but the bases all point to the mountain directly south of the mainland.
Taking the relics of Bodhidharma as the guide, the four major stars of the blue dragon, white tiger, vermilion bird, and black womb as the soup, and using the heroes of the world as the materials, a bowl of Bodhidharma soup for the supreme heavenly path.
This is the Bodhidharma Relic Formation.
The Buddha once predicted the end of the world for five hundred years. Five hundred years ago, Shaolin Temple made preparations. When he heard that the Supreme Heavenly Way entered the world, Shaolin Temple sent countless monks to travel around the world and find the whereabouts of the Heavenly Way. Since Xuanmiao came from Jiangnan, Li Jinping was most likely to be that person, he asked Xuanmiao to find ways to send her to Shaolin Temple and set out to prepare the Bodhidharma Relic Formation.
Once this formation is activated, dozens of grand masters from three countries will appear in the world overnight.
The way of heaven is sick and feeds on the great master.
Then he prepared a great master for him to enjoy the heavenly way and save the people of the world.
This is the Bodhidharma Plan.
Xuanyin said again, "It's just a pain for the heroes of all major sects."
The monk sweeping the floor, "The Buddha cut his flesh and feeds the eagle and feeds the tiger with his body. Now we serve the way of heaven with our bodies, which is the cause and the result. Sacrifices of dozens of people in the martial arts world to save the people of the world, and the Buddha will accept them to the Pure Land."
Shaolin Temple is the leader of martial arts in the world, and has an extremely glorious history. When I think that three days later, this thousand-year treasure temple will disappear into the world with the arrival of the supreme heavenly way, I feel a little reluctant. The monk swept the floor noticed his emotions and said, "I have a fool, but I still don't wake up?"
Xuanyin smiled bitterly.
The monk sweeping the floor, "Practice the thunderbolt method to show the heart of the Bodhisattva. This is the ability of your thunderbolt Bodhisattva back then."
Xuan Yin clasped her hands together, "My uncle, I've been taught."
After saying that, he returned to the formation and continued to prepare the formation.
The monk sweeping the floor looked at Shaoshi Mountain, with mountains continuous, sitting on the futon.
Reciting: "If I live in the world, all the Śrāvakas have all precepts, all the hearings have all the complete precepts, all the hearings have all the concentration, all the wisdom have all the wisdom, all the liberation have all the knowledge and insights have all the knowledge and insights of liberation, and all the Dharma is still in the world... I am still strong in the liberation of my Dharma. Then five hundred years, my Dharma, meditation, and samadhi have all the strength. Then five hundred years, I read and recite, and many of the hearings have all the strength. Then five hundred years, I have built many pagodas and temples in my Dharma. Then five hundred years, I have slandered the Dharma and lost the Dharma, and my Dharma is lost and weakened. I know the pure man! From then on, even though I have shaved my hair and beards, wore a cassock, and broke the precepts, and did not act in accordance with the Dharma, I have called him a monk."
Xuanyin heard him recite the Jambudvipa in the "Mahasattva Sutra", which was the last kalpa described in the Buddha's Nirvana. The devil king Pasun told the Buddha that in the last days, his disciples and grandchildren were taught to mingle in the monk treasure, wear cassocks, recite the Buddha's Dharma, twist Buddhist teachings, and break the precepts. He couldn't help but sigh, "This moment will come eventually."
...
On the ninth day of the 10th month, it started drizzling in the capital.
The autumn of the 12th year of Tiantong came lightly, purely, and sadly, but it could not stop the enthusiasm of the people in the capital.
Your Majesty's birthday is about to come, and the court issued an order to celebrate the whole world from the tenth to the fifteenth day of the day to pray for your Majesty. Not only that, Your Majesty's birthday will also be forgiven for the world, and all the crimes will be exempted from the ten evil people.
When everyone met, they would often clasp their hands and say "Blessings of the Saint". At the same time, temple fairs were held in the city, and vendors from the city and the suburbs rushed to the capital, and peddlers also walked on the streets and alleys to sell, and made some money while the emperor's birthday. Shuntian Prefecture also issued a decree to cancel the curfew within these five days, although the curfew system was not strictly implemented in the Ming Dynasty.
Chang'an Street is filled with flowers. In addition to vendors, there are also floats paraded from the 18th Road State on the birthday party, which will surely attract countless people.
In addition, there is another thing that stimulates the nerves of the people.
That is, on the night of Your Majesty's birthday party, Lingchi was going to execute the rebel traitor Li Chuntie outside the Wumen Gate. This former president of the Dengwen Academy, a powerful and powerful figure who was in power at that time, betrayed the Ming Dynasty and leaked military secrets to the Northern Zhou and Western Chu, and even intended to rebel. When Li Chuntie confiscated his house, it was said that he had also dug out yellow robes, dragon thrones and other prohibited items. Moreover, there was a rumor in the capital that there was a Hyoku under Li Chuntie's mansion, which contained 100,000 iron-armored soldiers. These became evidence of Li Chuntie's rebellion. Of course, maintaining an improper relationship with many women was also one of his sins.
Li Chuntie was originally His Majesty's private minister, and he was responsible for supervising all the officials in the city. He offended almost all the people in the capital. Now that the money is falling, the wall is falling, and everyone pushes it. Since Li Chuntie was arrested, his actions of pouring sewage on him are outrageous. It is hard to write about the people. Regardless of loyalty, treacherous, good and evil, the court said that he was a traitor, so naturally he condemned him.
Therefore, the people from Shuntian Prefecture and Wucheng Military and Masji were also busy, and the number of people entering the city increased, so they had to seconded troops from the Red Cavalry to maintain order. Three days ago, Song Renji, the son of the Minister of War, the commander of the Red Cavalry, was transferred to Yongding Gate and was responsible for the city defense with the Five City Military and Masji. Although the war between the Ming Dynasty, Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Western Chu State came to an end for the time being, the private open and secret struggle did not stop, and some spies from the two countries who were mingling among the people also took the opportunity to sneak into the capital to engage in intelligence spy work. This is a tacit secret between the Three Kingdoms.
Song Renji is naturally very concerned about this job. Among the playboys in the capital, Song Renji is an alien. He never deals with people like Zhang Shubao. He goes to the quest at a young age.
The Western Army joined the army and has now been transferred back to the capital to serve as a minor general of the Red Cavalry Army. His official position is not high, but he is one of the three main forces guarding the capital. On the night of bleeding in the palace, many people died of the Red Cavalry Army. Song Rendian, who was originally the commander, naturally became a minor general.
At noon, the light rain gradually stopped.
A dozen monks wearing hats and mahjong were lined up to enter the capital. According to the documents, these monks came from Qiongzhou. Since they got up a few months ago, they were invited to Fahua Temple to be a water and land temple to pray for His Majesty. They were all equipped with road guides, certificates of tribute and clearance documents. These monks were thin and had no expression. The lieutenant checked and paid tribute, and found more than ten swords from the rituals.
It is better to say that it is a sword than a sword.
The captain felt strange, "You are monks, why do you have weapons hidden on them?"
A monk in mai said, "Sir, we come from the south, and there are many robbers along the way. These dozens of iron swords are for self-defense and dare not hide them."
Song Renji looked up and down at the monks. There was no fluctuation in their bodies. However, their appearance was too thin, like a tree bark, which made people feel a little scared, so they noticed them, stood not far away, staring at them with vigilance.
The lieutenant said, "In the capital, there is no mechanical fighting. Now it is another sensitive period. I will collect these iron pieces first. I will issue the order to you. When you leave the city, I will come here to collect them."
Song Renji suddenly said, "A few broken swords are not in the way. Zhang Zhengwei, just let them pass the level."
The captain had to say more. Song Renji told him not to talk too much, so he had to mutter a few words, stamped the seal on the customs clearance documents, and said to them, "When I was in the capital, I abide by the law. If there is any violation of the rules and regulations, even if I am a monk, we will still be able to catch them."
The monk in Mai clad his hands together and bowed to the capital with the rest.
When they left, the lieutenant said, "Sir, it's not in accordance with the rules."
Song Renji said to the lieutenant, "Have you ever noticed that there is anything special about them?"
The captain said, "They have a very weird accent and there is no sound when they walk."
Song Renji nodded and added, "You have ignored a more important point. The heavy rain just now, other people who entered the city either had a lot of water on their bodies and had mud under their feet. Not only did they not have a little rain on their bodies, they were wearing new-sized shoes and no mud under their feet, so something must be strange."
After Song Rendian reminded him, Zhang Xiaowei said, "The great reminder is that I will send someone to recover them."
Song Renji stopped him and said, "No need, I'll follow you."
After saying that, he held his waist knife and fell far behind the monk's door of Mayi.
These monks seemed to be walking without any rush or slow, but it was very difficult for the generals like Song Renji to follow him. After walking for half an hour, these monks came straight to Fahua Temple and stopped coming out after entering a villa. Song Renji remembered their location in his heart and left here. He did not return to Yongding Gate, but went to the sect's mansion. After checking the files, he found that monks from the east, west, south, and north and north were indeed invited to the capital, and the monks from the Lengyan Temple in Qiongzhou were also among the invitations, so there was no problem with the procedures.
However, years of military experience told him that these monks from the south had a mystery everywhere, and it was not that simple.
