Chapter 1605: Becoming a Buddha

“In addition to this man, there were many other men who came together. These men were surprisingly enthusiastic. They scrambled for donations of incense money while squeezing towards the temple gate.”< br>
“They all clamored that they needed to perform rituals at home and hoped that the monks in the temple would follow them back to the village. In short, they had all kinds of excuses, but there was only one thing. They all named Huicong.”

The tone of the abbot. It became heavier and heavier, "Although the poor monk has escaped into Buddhism for a long time, I know very well what these villagers are thinking. I asked my disciples to stop them all outside the temple gate and return all the incense money. I can't look at myself His disciples made mistakes again and again. "

"But before I could persuade the villagers to come down the mountain, these villagers suddenly seemed crazy and started shouting. When I turned around, Hui Cong...it was actually my disciple Hui Cong who came out. .”

"He walked straight into the villagers. Surrounded by the villagers, he just... went down the mountain with them."

"Master didn't stop him?" Jiang Cheng was a little incredulous.

"I have thought about it, but just as I was about to speak, my disciple turned back. He glanced at me, and it was still... the same feeling. I was immediately stunned." The abbot's tone became urgent. , with a rare hint of fear, "He knew what I was going to say. Words, no, he even knows what I’m going to say next, I mean... he knows every word I’m going to say next!”

“Amitabha” seemed to suppress his frightened heart. , the abbot chanted the Buddha's name in a hoarse voice.

Jiang Cheng was not carried away by the abbot's story. He was looking for loopholes in it. "Master, there is something I don't understand. The peasants in the village should be extremely traditional. How can such a thing be carried on..."

"How could you use your hands on others?" The abbot did not hesitate and directly added what Jiang Cheng had not finished.

"That's right."

First he sighed, and then the abbot said slowly: "Does the donor know why the villagers sent the stone girl to this temple for meditation?"

"Does the donor think they are stupid? Do they really think that Is it possible to have a fat son just by practicing meditation?”

“The peasants in the village do pay attention to tradition, but they are not stupid at all. Compared with their reputation, they still have this problem. Things are more real, to be precise, more urgent! ”

"The donor thinks that there is harmony in the village? Are the blood relatives who live in the same courtyard really blood thicker than water?"

"Haha, has the donor ever heard of uncovering the death tiles?" The abbot's attitude changed, and he was actually a little confused. gloomy.

Jiang Cheng nodded, "I've heard that after the death of the head of a family, if he has no descendants, his family property will be controlled by the people in the same village. The closest relatives will choose first, and then the relatives. Neighbors nearby, and then the same village Man, after all this trouble, there was nothing left in this man's house, let alone valuables. Even the better tiles on the house had to be lifted off, so it was called Jie Si Tile. There was also a The name is Chijuehu.”

The abbot took it. The words added: "Or maybe the squire in the village took the lead and sold off all the land and property left by this person during his life, exchanged it for silver, and then used the money to hold a flowing banquet in the village, from the beginning of the village to the end of the village, and entertained all the people in the village. For each household, it can take as little as a few days or as many as ten months. In short, it won’t stop until all the family’s savings are used up.”

After a pause, the abbot continued: “The property mentioned by the poor monk also includes women like these stone girls, they are not counted. A true village man.”

"So in order to have a future, these seemingly stupid farm men can tolerate a lot and let go of a lot. Does the donor know why the leading man was willing to let Huicong and the two village girls go up the mountain that night?"< br>
“That It’s because the poor monk used money to buy the two stone girls!”

“A monk should not do such a thing, but this is the condition put forward by the man, the husband of the two women, otherwise! In front of me, Huicong and the other three people will be killed Beat him to death with a stick!"

"And with this money, the man can buy another woman to continue his incense."

"Huh——" the abbot said. He exhaled a breath, as if he wanted to collect all the energy in his heart The frustration was gone, "These villagers will do anything to have a future. The donor knows that he is not far from here. There are some barefoot doctors, lad-carryers, and some wearing fairy hats who have been wandering around all year round. The wide-sleeved Taoist.”

"These guys have no real abilities, they are just strong and have thick beards and hair. Everywhere they go, they will be invited to live in a certain master's house. In the name of driving away evil spirits, they will live in the same room with those stone girls. On the 2nd and 3rd, most of the time, these people will leave. "< br>
"Of course, the people in the village are not surprised. Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. Even if those stone girls are really happy, the people in the neighborhood will keep their mouths shut and never talk about what happened before. Don’t mention it.”

Hearing these things gave Jiang Cheng a headache. Chi Nu chatted for a long time without getting to the point. All he cared about was Monk Hui Cong, "Master, let's talk about your disciple Hui Cong."

"Hey, from that day on, Hui Cong, his disciple He rarely came back to the temple. I also sent people to look for him at the foot of the mountain, but those Disciples...Those disciples returned without success every time. It was obvious that Huicong was there a moment ago, but when they arrived, Huicong disappeared."

"It is said that he lived a very happy life, and everyone around him was very happy. The village invited him repeatedly and regarded him as an honored guest.”

"It was also from that time that all the stone girls in those villages disappeared. The village was peaceful with men farming and women weaving. Those fake doctors and fake Taoists who defrauded money no longer dared to go there, fearing that they would be beaten out with sticks. "

Jiang Cheng endured it for a long time, and finally said seriously: "Master, your disciple is so powerful. "

Abbot. I don’t know if he paid attention to Jiang Cheng’s words. After a long time, he heard the abbot sigh heavily, “No way, no way, he...he shouldn’t kill people!”

Jiang Cheng’s expression changed, “Kill people?”

Killing is a serious crime, let alone murder. When Jiang Cheng thought of Monk Huicong's frail appearance, he never expected that he would kill someone.

"Who did he kill?" Jiang Cheng asked: "Those men who forced Shi Nu to do that kind of thing?"

The abbot's tone was full of misery and deep self-blame, "No, more than that, he killed There were many people, including men, women, and... a baby who was just a few months old and waiting to be fed."

"Why?" Jiang Cheng was shocked.

“The poor monk couldn’t understand it at the time, let alone understand it. When I came down the mountain to see him, he was sitting on the ground, his whole body was stained red with blood, and there was a hatchet thrown in front of him. There were corpses lying everywhere, and no one dared to approach him."

"It wasn't until I appeared that his frozen face finally had an expression. He cried, heartbreakingly, saying I'm sorry, master, and the disciple didn't want to do this, but... but the disciple didn't There is no way, my disciple will become a Buddha!" ​​(End of Chapter)
