The Cannon Fodder Big Brother collapsed again

In early spring and March, monks from Penglai Xiandao came to Gyeonggi on a treasure ship.They brought Buddha bone relics and wanted to exchange them for their own Buddha sons.

In view of the fact that the high-ranking man was not in the palace every day, and went to various circles to travel in search of geniuses and treasures, Qi Ruoyun was in charge of receiving them.It was only after the other party mentioned his intention that Qi Ruoyun remembered that there was still a Buddhist monk imprisoned in the jail that day.It stands to reason that the one who committed the serious crime of coercing the palace would have to wait for the execution after the fall, but after all, Penglai personally came to ask for someone, so it is not easy to refuse directly.

Qi Ruoyun hesitated again and again to send a message to Ji Zheng who didn't know where he went.

Unexpectedly, Ji Zheng quickly replied and agreed, the Buddha bone relic is a rare genius treasure, and it is very beneficial for the elder brother to reshape his body.

Qi Ruoyun got the imperial decree and let the prison release him without any hesitation.

After several months, Heng Ku walked out of the prison.The monk's robe on his body is already worn out, but the golden body of the Buddha is more perfect.

As soon as Hengku came out of the heavenly prison, it attracted thousands of Buddha lights.

The moment those Penglai people saw the Buddha's light, they immediately chanted the Buddha's name and bowed and kowtowed.

Heng Ku raised his eyebrows and chanted the Buddha's name as well, followed the Penglai visitors to board the treasure ship, and the treasure ship turned into a stream of light and flew towards Penglai Xiandao.

On the boat, Heng Ku turned his head and glanced behind him. At the moment when the golden core was first formed, he suddenly remembered the memory of his previous nine lives.

It turned out that he had been entangled with that person for more than a lifetime, no wonder he would lose the golden body without hesitation.

It was a long journey from Gyeonggi to Penglai, and it took only seven days to ride the treasure ship, but he seemed to have passed through several lifetimes during these seven days.

……

The first life of constant suffering was born in the era of war. At that time, the dragon clan had not been extinct, and the disputes between various clans continued, and the people suffered unspeakably.

In that life, Hengku had no name, and was just a little beggar who barely survived by stealing.When he was seven years old, there was a heavy snowfall in Beijing.

He thought he would not be able to survive, but he saw a person's cassock dimly.

That time, Heng fell asleep for three days, and when he woke up, he saw a young monk who was about his age.He put the cassock on himself, only wearing a single shirt, and his small face was pale from the cold.

"I have Buddha's light on my body, so I'm not afraid of the cold." He held up a bowl of vegetable paste that he didn't know how to make, and fed it to Hengku bit by bit.

The dish was mushy and bitter, but Heng Ku swallowed it quickly. He hadn't eaten hot food for many years.

Later he found out that the young monk was called Heng Sha, and he traveled here with his master, but he was separated from his master because of the war.The two children survived that freezing winter together, and Heng Sha could also identify herbs and edible plants. With Heng Sha around, they did not starve to death.He also taught Heng Kui to practice calligraphy and chant scriptures, and to draw Buddha's light into his body, which can also make him feel warmer.

"The poor monk's dharma name is Hengsha. Since I taught you how to practice Buddhism, you are included in my family. Why not take the name of Heng like me. You are called Hengku. All living beings are suffering, and life is always suffering, but the poor monk I hope you are doing well.”

"My name is Heng Ku." Heng Ku's eyes became brighter, and he has his own name since then.

When the spring warmed up, Hengku resumed his old business and lived a life of petty theft.The first time he went out to find two steamed buns, he originally handed one of them to Heng Sha, but he was reprimanded by Heng Sha, and then he didn't speak to him for three days.

"Those people wear gold belts and silver, but we can't eat a full meal. You say that the Buddha saves all living beings, but why doesn't he save us?"

Heng Sha heard Heng Ku's question, and finally answered Heng Ku: "I came here to save you, stealing is not good, you will understand later."

Understand what... I have lived to such a great age by relying on this craft.

Heng Ku complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it.

Because of the theft, Heng Ku was really troubled for a while, he couldn't bear to part with the only person in the world who treated him well, so he quit for a while.But he was used to petty theft. In winter, he could gnaw tree bark with Heng Sha, but he couldn't control his hands when there were people.

In order not to make Heng Sha angry, Heng Ku always excused the food and money he got from begging, completely ignoring such an era when the people were in distress.Even if there are kind people, no one will pity a little beggar every day.

Seeing it, Heng Sha saw it, and in the end it turned into a sigh. It was just that when he was explaining the Dharma to Heng Ku, he always told him some related stories intentionally or unintentionally.It's a pity that Hengku didn't understand these stories, and he would still use begging as an excuse to steal.

I often walk by the river without getting my shoes wet. After touching so many people, I finally kicked the iron board.He stole from an official's house, and the other party beat him to death to catch him.

In order to save Hengku, Hengsha put on Hengku's clothes, left the cassock to him, and then set fire to the ruined temple where the two stayed.

Heng Ku never found Heng Sha again, but was accidentally picked up by Heng Sha's master.

In troubled times, people are like worthless things. He knew it, but he never gave up looking for it.That was his most sincere life, but only he himself knew that he worshiped mountains and Buddhas only to find someone until the end of his life.

……

The second life of constant suffering was born directly in Penglai.

In the 14th year of Tianbao, the aura between heaven and earth was at its most prosperous.Buddhism is naturally the most prosperous era.

Heng Ku was born with the Buddha's light, and came on the seven-star lotus. He is a born Buddha.The birth of the Buddha is the biggest joyous event in the entire Xiandao, and the entire Xiandao is celebrating him that day.

Xiao Hengku was raised by the abbot of Dajueyin Temple since he was a child, and grew up bathed in the sound of chanting scriptures and the light of Buddha.The abbot didn't dare to recognize him as a disciple, and only called him a master, not a master.

But it is different from the dignified and respectful Buddha in the impression and expectation of others. It seems that the gods and Buddhas have mistaken the person, and Xiao Heng suffers from him... "living up to everyone's expectations".

The lotus pond behind the Dajueyin Temple was the first to be harmed by picking flowers when I was young. The lotus pond, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years, was almost bald by children.

Later, the master who took care of the lotus on a daily basis couldn't stand it anymore, so he designated that area as a forbidden area for young Buddhas.

When he was a little older and had a cultivation base beside him, the high wall behind the temple could no longer stop Xiao Hengku. He wanted to see the world outside for a long time.

A little child, for some reason, has a yearning for freedom and a wider world, as if there is someone or something he is looking for outside.

The result of the first two attempts to climb over the wall was that he was arrested by the master before he even reached the bottom of the mountain.Because he is a disciple of the Buddha, the whole temple is respectful to him, and he will not be scolded if he gets into trouble. There will only be a bunch of great monks sitting around him, chanting sutras non-stop, as if this can wash away his evil spirit. The stubborn character on the body.

From a few hours, to a few days and nights, and finally ended up sitting on the futon and falling asleep.

This time Heng Ku learned the previous lesson, deliberately chose a day when Master and several masters in the temple were going out to teach Buddhism, and sneaked out over the wall. This time, he did not encounter any obstacles.

When Heng Ku ran to the bottom of the mountain, Le Ji Sheng Bei was knocked down by a small stone.He thought he would face the ground, but he was saved by a young man holding him by the collar.

"Kid, be careful."

Heng Ku looked up and saw a man in Tsing Yi with a kind face. This man had a benevolent appearance, more like a Buddha's disciple than he looked, but he had gray hair all over his head.

"Are you here to become a monk?" Heng Ku subconsciously asked after standing upright.

The man in Tsing Yi was stunned for a moment, and said with a half-smile: "I do have this idea, but I'm not sure yet."

Heng Ku kicked the stone and said sullenly, "What's so fun about becoming a monk?"

The man in Tsing Yi looked at the little monk in front of him, and said in a strange way: "Do you want to go down the mountain to play?"

Heng Ku hadn't gone down the mountain yet, and he didn't hide much when he heard the words, and looked at the other party with bright eyes.

The man in Tsing Yi smiled, and led the child back down the mountain: "I'll take you to play, and I'll take you back at night."

Heng Ku only heard the word play, and automatically ignored the second half of the sentence to send him back.

Penglai Island itself is not big, similar to the towns in the Central Plains, but the decoration is slightly different, and there are many more aquatic products such as pearls and Buddhist supplies in the market.

After arriving here, Heng Ku realized that the appearance of the people in Tsing Yi was quite different from those on the street, and the packages were much tighter.

As if seeing his question, the man in Tsing Yi lowered his head and smiled: "I'm from the Central Plains, and I'm here to pray for Buddha."

On this day, the people in Tsing Yi took Xiao Heng to many places, saw many delicious and interesting things, and told many stories related to the Central Plains.

At dusk, the man in Tsing Yi sent him back to the temple despite his constant begging. He hesitated at the door, but he didn't step into the temple door after all: "My name is Lu Huaishan. We are destined to meet again."

Xiao Heng couldn't bear to go in, and stood at the door, refusing to leave: "Don't you want to seek Buddhism? I can ask my master for you."

Lu Huaishan shook his head: "Not yet."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left without any remembrance.

As soon as Heng Ku came back to the monastery, he alarmed the monks in the monastery. This was the first time in his history that he was punished by his master to copy the scriptures. It took him three days to get out of confinement.

But this does not alleviate Heng Ku's longing for the outside world, but intensifies it.

So he chose a dark and windy night for another month, and jumped out of the wall, but he was picked up right before he landed.Heng Ku raised his head and stared blankly at Lu Huaishan in front of him.

"Child, is this the second time you've bumped into my arms?" Lu Huaishan smiled helplessly and put him down: "Are you sneaking out again?"

Heng Ku hurriedly gestured to mute the sound, pulled Lu Huaishan and ran down the mountain, but he didn't see him turn his head to look at the temple hidden in the night, with a complicated expression on his face.

As if by agreement, Heng Ku would climb over the wall and run out every few days, finding Lu Huaishan accurately every time.

The host still took care of him at the beginning, but then he also left with Hengku.Individuals have their own fate, not to mention that he is a disciple of the Buddha and must always cultivate his own merits.

With the host's laissez-faire, Heng Ku traveled even more, chanting scriptures and practicing during the day, and wandering around with Lu Huaishan at night, he heard a lot about the outside world.

I have the urge to go out to see Xiandao again.
