Miscellaneous Notes of the White Lotus School

It is said that when Minsan saw "The Precious Mirror of the White Lotus", he was suddenly enlightened. Since he has been exiled in a foreign land, why don't he come here, settle down, and have a good time here?Maybe relying on this wonderful book, I can exchange for rich clothes and fine food, with the beauty in my arms, I started to study hard that night, and gradually fell asleep with the book.In the middle of the night, when he was sleeping soundly, the dagger in his waist fell to the ground and woke him up.At this time, the lamp was also off, Min San fumbled all over the place, grabbed the handle of the knife, felt Xiao's engraving on the knife, and suddenly had another idea.

I heard that great-grandmother Xiao Lan once lived in Chengdu Mansion for a while, and opened a music workshop with great-grandfather Yiqing, named Qingfeng Bayonglou.If the Bayong Tower is still there, he will recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors based on the seal at this moment, and he will be extremely prosperous from then on.It's just that along the way, I can only spend some thought and change a few tricks for alms.When the weather cleared, Minsan stuffed the precious sword in his clothes, hung the bow and arrow in his leather hat on the horse, took out a handkerchief to wrap around his head scarf, bid farewell to Wusheng mother, and took the horse to the village at the foot of the mountain.

Walking near the village house, I saw a young man standing on the side of the mountain. He threw up the hem of his clothes and pinched it to his belt.Seeing that he was not afraid of the severe cold, Min San couldn't help but look at him a few more times.This guy was born tall and fair, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, he seems to be a gentleman; in addition, his body is very large, his body is plump, his color is red, and Jiaomin's three-color heart is darkened.But he changed his mind and thought again, he also has this thing, so what does he do?The man was so shameless, he raised his eyes and smiled at him, drained and urinated at him, and went back to the house.Min San taught him to look, but he was stupefied, and cursed inwardly as he walked, "Look at your air! When I come into the village, I'll kill you, my nemesis!"

The other side of the village entrance looked close, but the road was high mountains and low valleys, and after going around, he had already seen the village gate, but he couldn't make it through. It took him half an hour to come to the village entrance memorial archway.I saw "Xixian Village" written in the center of the archway, but there was no one inside.Min San's stomach was empty, and he felt tired again, so he sat under a dead tree to rest.Just at the time of Shu Tan, I saw a group of bandits, about 20 people, copying big knives and axes, vicious and menacing, coming towards Minsan.

Min San was startled at first, and stood up suddenly, then thought that maybe the two gangs would cut each other, and it would be another big dragon and phoenix.When he looked at the place where the bandit was going, there was no one there, but when he turned around, the bandit had surrounded him tightly.The bandit leader took out a piece of paper from his pocket, it was wrinkled like a pickle, and he fiddled with it for a long time.As soon as he frowned, the subordinate beside him immediately took it, slapped it hard a few times, handed it to him, and said, "Dwarf wax gourd, have you seen this person?"

The paper smelled of sweat and stuck to Min's face.This didn't anger Minsan, but the "short winter melon" just now hit his vital point.This Min San has been riding horses for many years, his knees are slightly bent outwards, so he was not born tall. Calculated by the current ruler, he is only more than five feet; in addition, he is still childish and has round cheeks. It is also expected to be called out like this , but made him furious and scolded: "Old pig dog, you must be blind? Are you looking at me with your eyes or your nose?"

The bandit held back his anger, held the portrait half a foot away, and said sternly: "You can see it clearly like this?" Min San looked at it carefully, and said: "Really! You are so handsome, and this gentleman has a very good surname." Who is your name?" The bandit suddenly yelled angrily: "Stop talking nonsense! Have you seen it?" Min San replied: "No chance! If you see it, remember to tell Sajiazhi." The leader gave He snatched the portrait and cursed: "*You bastard!" Then he said to his subordinates: "Come up! Follow me into the village to find it!"

Not to be outdone, Minsan scolded back: "You bastard barking like a scumbag?" Then he flew on his horse, picked up his bow and arrow, and stood in front of that line, and said, "If you dare to enter the village of the Sa family, the Sa family will not give you a good meal." Random arrows, *kill you bastard!" Seeing the momentum to suppress the group of bandits, Min San said again: "To be honest, this village is full of Khitan people, who are brave and good at fighting, and their arrow skills are first-rate. The Sa family is the worst, but It’s still more than enough to take care of you idiots. Get out of here before the Sajia arrow is fired, otherwise, do you think your pace is faster or the Sajia arrow is faster?”

The leader ignored Min San, and shouted to his subordinates: "Don't listen to this bastard's nonsense! Come with me!" Min San said, "You dare to force your way in?" As soon as he spoke, he shot an arrow, and took the leader Tian Linggai away.The arrow passed through the futou, and even his fake bun was lifted off, and the top of his head was scattered, empty in the middle, like a small lake surrounded by mountains, with a few strands of hair dancing with the wind.The crowd was in an uproar: "Leader, so you..." The leader blushed and shouted, "Don't ask!" Picking up the fake bun, put it on hastily, and said, "Don't look! Go away!"

Now that Min San has nothing to worry about, he is not afraid of offending others. Seeing that the bandit is not going well, he scolded him bitterly to relieve his anger, and then laughed wildly again, saying: "Happy! Happy! Dare to hinder the prosperity of the Sa family? It's a life-threatening Miles!" This Min San was overwhelmed with complacency, said "Sajia", slapped his heart fiercely, hit the "White Lotus Treasure Book", and suddenly realized that he should be a practitioner now, so he restrained his expression again, dismounted and straightened his clothes.Suddenly, a person behind him said, "Thank you benefactor for saving me."

Min San turned his head and saw that it was the man who relieved him just now.This son looks handsome and extraordinary from a distance, but he is actually somewhat delicate when viewed up close.It's just that he is really tall, and Minsan is only as high as his ears.The man walked up to Min San, bowed again, and said, "I'm Bai Xian, I taught my enemies to chase and kill me, and I fell here. Thank you for your kindness and righteousness, and saving the villain's life." Min San said: "The words of a benefactor are serious. My servant, Xiao Min San, But a walker."

Bai Xiandao: "Our family has just cooked rice, thanks to Brother Xiao's help, our family can eat this meal! Brother Xiao, can we have noodles together?" Min San was hungry and just wanted to have a meal. , but didn't want to appear anxious, clasped his hands together and said, "I'm very happy." Bai Xian immediately brought Min San into the village, and they entered the house together without mentioning it.

Bai Xian welcomed him into the house, took some hay, and ate it with his horses; then went to the kitchen, brought out three plates of hot dishes, and said, "Brother Xiao, please use it! You are welcome." There was only a plate of roast beef , a plate of fried chicken, delicious and tangy, made him salivate.However, he is a practitioner now, so he had no choice but to say: "Our family is a disciple of the White Lotus Sect, and we don't touch meat." Then he put it in the third plate of white lettuce.Bai Xianqi said: "White Lotus Sect? What sect and sect is this?" Min San waited for this question, cleared his throat immediately, and recited the book: "Bailian Sect is originally a branch of the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism, which advocates hermitage in the city , Layman practice, take it out of the mud and not stain it, wash the clean ripples but not the meaning of demons."

Bai Xian said: "So that's how it is." During the conversation, he picked up a piece of beef, chewed it, and asked: "If you don't eat meat, how can you know the world?" Na Min looked at his piece of beef three times, it was so fragrant, tender and juicy, Staring at him intently, I wanted to bite him in my heart, but the chopsticks could only pick up vegetables, and said: "After all, I am a practitioner. This sect has clear rules and precepts, and you should not violate them knowingly."

That Baixian stopped talking, and suddenly smiled and said: "Master is so young, he has already cultivated so much, our family really admires it." He took two big bowls and a wine cellar, and asked: "But our family has wine, Master Can we enjoy noodles and have a drink together?" Min San usually drinks alcohol, but "Bai Lian Bao Jian" clearly states that onion, milk, wine and meat are forbidden, so he had to refuse it against his will, and asked, "Brother Bai, why did those bandits kill you just now?"

Bai Xian had no choice but to pour tea with him, pour the wine again, and then replied: "Our family was originally one of them. My boss brought a few subordinates and robbed an orangery in the outskirts of Jincheng. There is a fool He stole the money, but he refused to leave, and went to pick oranges, so the officers and soldiers saw him. That guy is the elder brother's brother, and the elder brother will protect him, and let me take the blame. Our family refused, and escaped." Min Sanyi Said: "I understand. We are really the same people who have fallen in the end of the world. Why should we know each other when we meet again?" Seeing that Baixian's wine bowl was full, but he had a cup of tea, he felt really uncomfortable.

He originally thought that by familiarizing himself with "The Precious Mirror of the White Lotus" and memorizing the teachings and rules, he would be able to manipulate people into his palms, until he came down to the mountain, only to realize that the deception was not perfect, and he repeatedly showed his feet.But this son is very vigilant, if he continues to pester him, he may lose his wife and lose his army.If there is fate to meet again in the future, it will not be too late to feed him again.After he finished his meal in a hurry, he got up to say goodbye, and said: "I have something important to go to Chengdu, so I won't bother Brother Bai. But I really have a predestined relationship with Brother Bai. Brother Bai and I have a personal belonging. You pray for blessings, in order to thank you for the kindness of the meal.”

In fact, in the "Bai Lian Bao Jian", there is no mention of how to pray for blessings.Min San's posture of praying for blessings was stolen from Yelu Qianfu.Every day on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, big and small festivals, this Yelu Qianfu would take leave of his home and spend a few hours kneeling in the Buddhist hall, chanting words, and not doing production. It was called praying for the emperor and Daliao. He ignored all kinds of injustices outside the palace.Anyway, as far as Qianfu is concerned, if a person does good, it is the Buddha's help; if a person does evil, it is the person's fault.Minsan just found it ridiculous.This person is useless, but he is too lazy to be justified; but he is diligent and conscientious, but he makes many mistakes.A few good words in vain will save people?Fools fool themselves, but they win the hearts of the people.

Bai Xian paused, then agreed, except for the bracelet and him.Minsan imitated the example, pretending to be a gesture, holding the bracelet in his left hand, standing up with his right palm, and muttering in Khitan dialect: "Today, I, Xiao Minsan, came to Xixian Village, and this knight invited me to eat." Rice, three dishes and one soup, white rice is free to serve, it is very good, but there are worms in the dish. The meat is grilled deliciously, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, it is a pity that I have no luck to eat it.”

Sure enough, just now what Minsan did, Jiao Baixian's neighbors saw it, and asked Minsan to pray for them.To show his sincerity, he entangled Na Minsan with dry food and fed his mount.Min San tirelessly prayed for blessings one by one, but snickered in his heart.All the villagers were grateful to him and sent him out of the village all the way.Min San didn't dare to stay for a long time, and went straight to Jincheng.

This city of Jincheng is full of traffic and bustling, Min San has never been to the Song Dynasty, and when he entered this big city, he couldn't find his way for a while.At this time, I suddenly remembered that I heard that the Qingfeng Bayong Building has eight floors, and the attic is named "Tianbigao", which should stand out from the crowd in the city, so I looked for it from a high place; as expected, I saw a building in the distance. The octagonal tall building, shaped like a pagoda, must be the Bayong Tower.

Min San searched all the way, and gradually entered the land of fireworks, filled with smoky atmosphere.He just felt that he was going astray, and thought: "This place is so noisy, how can I listen to music?" When he was about to ask for directions, a man smelled of alcohol came out of a Xianggong hall, stumbled on the threshold, and went straight to the door. Minsan rushed forward.Min San was looking left and right, and unconsciously took a step back. The man couldn't help Min San, and threw himself straight on the ground.Min San ignored the man, looked at the signboard at the gate, it was "Qingfeng Bayonglou", he said to himself: "This is obviously the family's grandson, could there be another band with the same name?" A person at the gate said: "Then what kind of music workshop is there? Bayonglou is the only one, there is no other colony."

Min San saw that the guy was dressed brightly and looked like he was in charge. He must be Gui Gong here, so he asked, "Excuse me, are you the owner of Qingfeng Bayong Building?" The guy flicked his sleeves and said, "Exactly." Min San He asked again: "Excuse me, are the old landlords of your building Yiqing Xiaolan and his wife?" Mr. Gui sized him up a few times, and seeing that he was not here to spend money, his expression turned pale, and he asked coldly, "What are you asking them for? What are you doing?" Are you related to them?"

Min Sansan was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Lord! I am really related to the two old landlords!" And said: "I am their great-grandson!" Mr. Gui said disdainfully: "What great-grandson, do you have evidence?" Min San said "Great-grandmother Xiao Lan is a swordsmith in Daliao, and the Yin-Yang Sword of Guilou's town building was made by great-grandmother." During the conversation, he drew out the dagger, with a cold light shining in front of the turtle, and said, "Look at this The seal engraved by the Xiao family on the blade is exactly what has been passed down from my family, and it is a real fake!"

The turtle man immediately showed his face, looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "So it's the young master of the Xiao family! It's a pleasure to meet you!" Then he looked down at Minsan, his expression changed, he picked up the iron broom by the door, and greeted him, while Hurrying and scolding: "Stinky beggar, you are chasing relatives, don't get out again, watch me break your dog legs!" Min San's horse was frightened, and hissed long, startled passers-by scrambled to avoid it, and there was a chaos in front of Bayong Tower for a while. group.Min San hurriedly comforted the horse, led it to the corner of the street, and looked back at the Bayong Tower, but saw a few gentlemen leaning on the attic, full of smiles and delicate hands, but they were not looking at him, the great Liao clan, but the dandy who spent money like water .exactly:

A successful cat is worse than a tiger, and a down-and-out phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken.

Min San wanted to deceive that Xixian villager, so he gave up. Now that there is no hope of recognizing his ancestors and returning to his clan, he has memorized the treasure of Bailian and deceived a few ignorant villagers. Why not go with the flow and use the name of Bailianzong to deceive them thoroughly ?Immediately came up with a plan, and secretly said: "A group of second-generation ancestors spend money to date your husband, what are you capable of? I, Xiao Minsan, swear that I will spend no money to date your husband in Bayonglou!" After all, Xiao Min What's the trick for three?And listen next time.
