Nightfall Chapter 79: Causality of the Hanging Temple

Sangsang's greatest wish in this life is to turn white.

Instead of turning black chess into white chess, it turns oneself into white.

Looking at the black chess, she thought of Master Qishan's words, and smiled embarrassedly, thinking that if she can really do what she thinks is white without using Chen Jinji's powder, that would be great, and It's very convenient. No wonder the master just said that Buddhism called this convenient method.

Master Qishan was startled slightly, wondering why she was laughing. Could there be any mistakes or omissions in the convenience method she taught by this little girl?

The only person in the world who can guess the real reason for Sangsang's laugh at this time is Ning Que. Seeing Sangsang's slightly shy smile, he couldn't help laughing.

In the dark and cold cave room, there was a relaxed smile, and then gradually calmed down. The voice of Master Qishan explaining the Dharma sounded from time to time, interspersed with Sangsang's interrogative sounds occasionally.

I don’t know how long it has passed. Tonight’s explanation came to an end. Master Qishan looked at Ning Que and said, “Healing is always a long process. The cave is damp and cold, and it’s not suitable for healing. She went down to the temple to rest. If you have time before going to bed, you might as well let her think about today's affairs."

Ning Que said: "There are many inconveniences going up and down the mountain, we might as well just rest here."

Master Qishan said: "I will also go down at night, and I will meet in the temple tomorrow morning."

Ning Que was slightly startled, thinking that everyone knows that Master Qishan has lived in Washan for decades, even if he did not participate in the Yulan Festival, why did he say that he was leaving the seclusion and descending the mountain tonight?

Master Qishan said: "This is probably the last time I have been out of the house, so I have to go to the monastery to take a look at it to be at ease."

After saying this, the master picked up the sunspot from the ground in front of the futon and put it into Sangsang's palm.

Listening to the master’s words, Ning Que guessed something vaguely. After being shocked, his gratitude grew stronger, but he didn’t know what to say. He bowed solemnly, and then stood up and helped Sangsang walk outside the cave. .

Walking to the entrance of the cave, he said to Master Qishan: "You must come."

Master Qishan sighed helplessly and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come."

Ning Que reluctantly said, "Sangsang's disease is not healed yet, don't die first."

Master Qishan laughed angrily, and said with a smile: "Where do you develop a bad temper? Now I finally believe that Master will often blow your beard with anger, but there is no way to clean up you."

Ning Que said with a smile: "The teacher just likes me to be honest, and loves me so he doesn't clean up me."

Get out of the cave.

Ning Que carried Sangsang into the carriage.

Sangsang leaned on the quilt, clenching his small fist tightly, for fear of losing the black chess piece. She looked at Ning Que with a bleak expression and said, "Master...is it bad? "

After a moment of silence, Ning Que nodded and said: "Don't think too much, it has nothing to do with you. Buddhist monks have their own control over fate, let alone a master who can predict the future."

The night breeze gradually lifted, and a corner of the green curtain was raised.

Ning Que looked at the lonely Buddha statue beside the mountain road and frowned slightly. He didn't know why the precepts of the Xuankong Temple had been waiting outside, and why was there no one beside the Buddha statue?

……

……

The ascetic monks of the White Pagoda Temple in the Moon Country were all taken to the foot of the mountain by Qu Ni Madi, and the monk of Lan Ke Temple had already left. The monk who watched the sea sent a black carriage down the mountain. There was no one around the cave.

The night wind blows through the autumn forest, making a rustling sound, but it does not disturb the birds. Vaguely, there seems to be a crisp and subtle bell ringing, but the bell does not seem to be real, and it disappears instantly.

The Buddha statue outside the cave was still quiet. Suddenly a hand stretched out from the yellow drape, creating a gap, and a monk wearing a dark brown monk's clothes walked off the Buddha statue.

The monk’s eyebrows are as straight as a horizontal ruler, and his eyes are like jewels. The color of wind and frost is faintly visible between his eyebrows and his forehead has wrinkles. However, he can’t tell his age. He says it’s sixty or seventy, or three or four. Ten is also OK.

This monk is naturally the first place in the precepts of Xuankong Temple.

The monk stepped off the Buddha's robe, walked slowly into the cave, under the dim light, looked at the tiger and peach wood bracelet underground, put one hand together, and asked: "Uncle Master, what did you see?"

"Baoshu, why do you have this question?" Master Qishan answered calmly.

The first treasure tree master of the Xuankong Temple Discipline Academy, quietly looked at Qishan, and said: "The monks don’t talk about it. Master Shu played three games of Washan today, especially the chess board left by the Buddha. Not to embarrass the poor sick woman, but to see if it is that person."

Master Qishan smiled slightly and said: "You can't see the oracle. The great priest Guangming thought he saw it, but found that he was wrong, so how did I see it?"

"Did Wei Guangming really read it wrong back then?

Master Baoshu said indifferently: "What if he is not mistaken? What if the son of Hades is really born in the general mansion? What if Ning Que is really the son of Hades?"

Master Qishan shook his head and said: "If Ning Que is the son of Pluto, how could the Master accept him as a disciple?"

Master Baoshu shook his head and said: "The Master is very human and can do extraordinary things. Even if he accepts the son of Hades as his disciple, it is not hard to imagine."

Master Qishan looked at him and said: "If things are really as you imagined, then there is no point in doing anything in the Hanging Temple or Zhishouguan."

Baoshu understood the meaning of this sentence. If the Master knew that Ning Que was the son of Pluto and was still in the gate, then even if the whole world wanted to kill Ning Que, the Master would also stand on Ning Que's side.

But the Master doesn't necessarily know.

Because the Buddha said that there is no omniscient person in this world.

Baoshu said: "I want to know what you saw on the Buddha's chessboard."

Master Qishan was silent for a moment and said: "I saw a black carriage stopped between Qianmo Avenue."

Baoshu asked again: "Where is the girl of light?"

"She is waiting on the mountain."

Master Qishan said, for some reason, he didn't tell him what Sangsang had experienced in the chessboard world.

Bao Shu sat forward on the futon and was silent for a long time.

The oil lamp on the cliff cave wall was a little disturbed by the slight night breeze.

Bao Shu suddenly said: "This morning when Ning Que bent the bow to shoot at the foot of the mountain, I had a great warning sign in my heart. The bell rang but did not ring, and there seemed to be something strange in my body."

Master Qi Shan said calmly: "He has the breath of Master Liansheng."

Hearing Liansheng’s name, Baoshu Chan's heart was suddenly disturbed, and his eyebrows were raised slightly, like a iron ruler ready to strike, and he said with a cold voice: "He is a disciple of the academy, how can he have the breath of Master Liansheng? ?"

Although he is from an unknowable place, he is the first seat of the precepts of the Xuankong Temple. Facing the name of Liansheng, he is still unavoidably shocked. You must know that Liansheng has studied the three sects of Buddhism, Taoism and Demon, and he is a legend in his life. The monastery lecture halls all have a very high reputation and status, how can it be taken lightly?

Master Qishan shook his head and said, "Or is it related to Mr. Ke?"

Bao Shu gradually calmed down and said with a firm expression: "I increasingly believe that Ning Que is the son of Pluto."

Master Qishan shook his head and said: "He is not, although there is no way to prove it."

Baoshu said: "The son of Hades is about to wake up, so I will be the only one who can prove it."

Master Qishan saw his eyes suddenly become extremely sharp. Although he has been sick for many years and his true cultivation level is very low, these two eyes still have the power of thunder.

"Why is the Xuankong Temple never connected to the two generations like the academy? Because the Xuankong Temple was originally the place where my Buddhism was used to preserve the Buddha's nature in the end of the Dharma era. What I asked for was isolation from the world and an unknown place. Should be unknowable!"

Master Qishan looked at the treasure tree and said in a deep voice: "You are the first of the Xuankong Temple Commandment Academy. You are not walking around the world. You cannot enter the world unless you are entrusted by the Buddha. Why did you come to Washan? You didn't leave quickly! "

If it is another monk in the world, even the master of the Moon Kingdom or the Huangyang monk of the Tang Kingdom, facing such a big man like the first person in the precepts of the Xuankong Temple, he will certainly be respectful, not to mention such a reprimand.

However, the origin of Master Qishan's identity is different. As the rumors said, he was originally the illegitimate son of the first lecturer in the predecessor of Xuankong Temple. He has been a monk in the temple since he was a child, and he has a very high seniority, and he knows What kind of place is Xuankong Temple, so he doesn't need to care about the attitude of Xuankong Temple.

Sure enough, Baoshu didn't get angry, and said calmly: "There is a reason to come naturally."

"The seven thoughts should come from you, not you. If you are not deeply connected with the Buddha, you have a strong connection with Jingling, and become the palm of the reincarnation. With your knowledge of the cultivation base of the destiny state, how can you become a precepts? The first seat? In this case, you should be more cautious, not to move Jingling rashly, and you should not be persuaded by Qu Nimadi, from the desert to the world."

Master Qishan looked at him with a serious expression and said: "You are a Buddhist cultivator. You should understand cause and effect. You can't be blinded by hatred. Dao Shi died in Ning Que's hands. That is his cause and effect."

Baoshu frowned slightly, and then gradually calmed down.

He said: "I am the cause of Dao Shi, Dao Shi was originally my effect, then since Dao Shi's cause and effect ended in Ning Que, then this is my cause and effect with him."

"I was born in the pure land since I was a child, and I grew up in the pure land, and I can deter all evil spirits in the world. If Ning Que is the son of Pluto, then I will wake up listening to the bell. This is also the cause and effect of me and him."

"When I came to Washan on this trip, I wanted to understand these causes and effects, and then bear them."

Master Qishan shook his head slowly and said: "Since you are obsessed with this, then I have to inform the first lecture, except for your duties in the temple, and then fine you to face the wall for ten years."

Baoshu calmly said: "The good teacher knows that I am indeed here on request."

Master Qishan was slightly startled when he heard the words, and after a long time frowning, he said exhaustedly: "Even so, the Buddha's walking is still the seven thoughts, and the worldly matters are subject to his own heart."

"I will convince the younger brother."

Baoshu stood up, bowed with one hand, and then left the cave.

……

……

The cliff cave is quiet and silent.

Master Qishan, who is over a hundred years old, felt the strongest anxiety in his long life today.

Even more than a few decades ago, when the Demon Sect had washed the front ground of Kesi.

The Lumen rang slightly, and the sea monk came back.

"Master, Mr. Thirteen and the Daughter of Light, have rested in the former temple."

Master Qishan looked at his disciple and suddenly asked: "The Yulan Festival will be held soon, and I will still discuss the invasion of the underworld. What do you think of this matter?"

The sea monk looked at the haggard face of the master, thinking about letting him go to rest earlier, and said: "No one knows where the underworld is, it's just a legend."

Master Qishan smiled and said: "Idiot, the legend becomes a reality, then it is no longer a legend."

The monk Guanhai smiled honestly and said: "Wait until it becomes a reality."

Master Qishan asked again: "What do you know about Xuankong Temple?"

The sea monk was slightly startled, and found that the master seemed a little strange today, and said: "You never allowed me to ask Xuankong Temple, there are other things that are unknown."

"You have been the abbot of Lanke Temple for 20 years, or you have lived in seclusion for a few years, you will also go to Xuankong Temple one day, so it’s okay to know some in advance now."

Master Qishan said: "The origin of the Xuankong Temple is actually closely related to the legend of the invasion of the underworld."

"The invasion of the underworld is for the eternal night, which is called the Age of Doom in Buddhism. By that time, everything in the world will be destroyed. The Buddha saw the terrible picture countless years later. He pondered for hundreds of years and thought How to solve this problem, but still did not think of a way."

"The Buddha perceives the period of his own death, so that he can find a pure land in the depths of the Western Wasteland, and make a great aspiration to build a temple and provide it as a barrier for eternity. The Buddha collected the Buddhist meditation scriptures and ordered the younger Buddhist disciples The most outstanding people can enter the temple to listen to the scriptures and practice, this is the Hanging Temple."

"The reason for this is that after countless years of thinking, the Buddha still did not think of a way to prevent the end of the Dharma Era, because this was originally the cause and effect of the world, and there must be death, and even the painful reincarnation of all ages, so he hopes Buddhism disciples of later generations can use the shelter of the Xuankong Temple to survive the torrent of destruction in the Age of Doom, and can help the monks in the monastery to survive the long and almost eternal night. With perseverance and forbearance and silence, they can wait until the new whirling world. Coming."

After being silent for a long time, Master Qishan sighed softly and said: "However, today's Buddhism seems to have forgotten the teachings of the Buddha, and no longer think so. Last year, the seven thoughts entered the city of Chang'an, and this time the treasure tree entered the world. When they came to Washan, they all proved that they wanted to find the son of Hades and kill him."

"Master, I think...the great virtues of the Xuankong Temple are also good to do this."

Although the sea monk has practiced Buddhism for many years, he is young after all. Thinking of the horror picture of the invasion of the underworld in the legend, he whispered: "How suffering all living beings are, how can you be kind to yourself when you are a Cihang Pudu?"

Master Qishan laughed and said: "You kid... I think things are really simple."

Guan Hai smiled a little embarrassedly. Suddenly he thought of something and said in shock: "Master Baoshu is here for the son of Hades...Could the son of Hades be in Washan?"

Master Qishan smiled and patted him on the shoulder. He didn't say anything. He thought that there are many ways to let the son of Pluto leave this world, and it is not necessarily the only way to kill him.

Since the Master said in the letter that this method is feasible, it must be feasible, whether it is for the sake of universal living, or for the cause and effect of oneself and the Hanging Temple, always give it a try. (To be continued)
