Mirror of the Sky

Walking into the Buddhist temple is an extremely spacious courtyard, the yard is paved with black stones, and the ground is covered with countless shallow potholes.

Zhang Xuansheng has already broken into dozens of Buddhist temples, knowing that the pothole is the mark left by believers who have worshipped and bowed to the Buddha for hundreds of years, and stepped forward on the pit;

On the other hand, he thought silently in his heart: "According to the rules of the Buddhist people, only the dignitaries in the city can enter the temple to worship the Buddha.

The rest of the general public can only kneel and worship in the direction of the Sunrise Maitreya Dojo in front of their house. They are not allowed to even step into the Buddhist temple in their entire lives. Their only hope in their lives is to have a reincarnation of wealth and honor in the next life. Thinking about it, they are really pious.

If it wasn't for living in isolation on an island and being brainwashed from generation to generation, it would never be possible for the entire 70 million people to be so simple. These hard-working natures are. "

While thinking about it, Zhang Huansheng once again sighed that the Dharma King was highly skilled and became more curious about his origins. He walked faster through the courtyard, set foot on the high jade steps, and came to the front of the main hall of Foshan.

Looking inward, the Buddhist altar in the center of the main hall enshrines the nine-zhang golden body of Maitreya Buddha from Donglai as usual.

The Buddha statue was half-recumbent and half-sitting with bare breasts, only wearing a big red cassock inlaid with seven Buddhist treasures such as gold, silver, glazed, coral, amber, clam clam, agate, etc. The fat-headed and big-eared face had a smile on its face. A closer look at the facial features is very similar to Zhang Huansheng.

Beneath the Buddha statue are nine bronze jars huge enough to accommodate horses.

The harbor was half full of refined beast oil, and in the oil stood thick woollen threads as thick as the fists of strong men.

The light gathered together and shone on a square incense burner full of incense ashes in front of it, although it was only more than five feet high, but several feet long and wide.

In front of the furnace is an open space, neatly lined with many wellhead-sized futons.

Each futon is painted with different images of Upasaka, Bhikkhus, Ghati, Goddess chanting scriptures, banquets, singing and dancing, showing a blissful scene.

Originally, those Buddhist people living in the big city migrated to the Pure Land, and they tried their best to petition to take away all the Buddha statues, ever-bright lamp jars, incense burners, etc. in the temples.

For this reason, many people even knelt down for several days and nights, almost dying without any regrets.

But Zhang Huansheng was kidnapped by an evil monk since he was a child and lived a hard life. Although he practiced the supreme supernatural powers of Buddhism, he had no good feelings for Buddhism.

In addition, he knew that the construction of Buddhist temples would inevitably require extensive occupation of mountains and forests. Most of the monks in the temples were not engaged in production and depended on the support of believers. Not only did he not benefit the country and strengthen the army, but it was also a huge burden. Therefore, he did not want to move too much into the country. Buddhist temple

After thinking about it, he used his identity as Maitreya's reincarnation to falsely claim that since he has been reincarnated and fallen into the world, he will no longer be Maitreya before he attains the supreme status.

In this way, there will be no Maitreya Buddha in heaven and earth for the time being, and the Buddhist people will not need to build temples and worship Maitreya with golden bodies.

In the future, all you need to do is get up early in the morning, move towards the direction of King Zhang's Palace, and say, "Immeasurable is still alive." That's it.

Such nonsense was actually accepted by countless Buddhists even after the spread, and they were satisfied that they would not mention the relocation of the temple, and regarded Zhang Guo as a living Buddhist country on land and their life belonging.

And Zhang Huansheng, who was easily succeeded by the trick, was even more emotional about the power of belief and the blindness and deceit of believers. At this time, standing on the ground paved with white jade, he looked into the hall for a while, and couldn't help muttering to himself. He said: "The more Buddhist temples in the old city of Buddhist people, the more I feel that building Buddhist temples is too labor-intensive and wasteful.

Fortunately, I insisted on not letting these temples move to Zhang Guo, otherwise I don't know how much national power would be spent. "

When the voice fell, he turned to look at the servants behind him, and ordered, "You wait outside the temple." He stepped into the Buddhist temple.

Turning around and seeing nothing out of the ordinary, Zhang Huansheng strolled under Maitreya, looking up at him, when he suddenly smelled a fragrant smell coming from nowhere, and suddenly felt dark in front of his eyes, and his mind was muddled for a while. , with his feet empty, he fell into chaos.

When he woke up again, he was horrified and felt that his eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body had all lost his five senses. He was naked and immersed in a ball of slippery, warm water.

Zhang Huansheng, who didn't have time to explore the cause and effect, felt that he had fallen into some kind of dangerous situation inexplicably, turning his mind, using mana and qi, intending to break free from the shackles before thinking about other things, but found that whether it was cultivating the "Dragon Elephant Fundamental Sutra" or "True Likeness". The infinite supernatural powers obtained from Maitreya, or the leak-free real body cast by tempering the "Eight Nine Mysteries", have all been lost.

The only thing he can do is to float silently without moving in the endless darkness.

In such a strange situation, although the body is not painful, it is extremely tormented mentally. Zhang Yuansheng was first anxious, then angry and violent, and finally turned into a kind of despair that life is worse than death.

It is a pity that for him at this time, even death is an extravagant hope, and he can only endure the torture that seems to have no end.

The time in the emptiness is impossible to calculate, and I don't know how long it has passed, maybe only a few days, or maybe ten or eight years have passed. The force pressed down on his body from top to bottom, and kept squeezing it up.

This change instantly shattered Zhang Huan's stillness of life and death, and made him reborn with hope without a purpose. After trying to twist his body a few times, he found that he had become able to move, so he struggled desperately.

After struggling like this for a long time, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Zhang Yusheng suddenly felt that the warm water that was wrapping him burst apart. Continued and his eyes brightened, he saw a thick beam.

At the same time, Zhang Huansheng heard a surprised voice in his ears, shouting: "I'm born, I'm born, mother and son are safe, it's a little son." Then someone lifted himself upside down and patted his buttocks hard. , said in a worried tone: "The young master is very fat, his eyes are rolling, he looks very clever, but he doesn't like to cry..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by a hoarse, ecstatic and incoherent man shouting outside the room, "It doesn't matter if a man doesn't like to cry, he doesn't like to cry.

The important thing is that I have a son, I have a son, the ancestors and ancestors bless me, and my Zhang family has another descendant who will inherit the incense. Hahahaha, it is really the blessing of the ancestors.

Madam, Madam, it is really thanks to you, by the way, I have to pay my respects in person and thank Madam for her hard work. "

When the voice fell, a woman laughed and said, "The young lady has just given birth, how can a man enter, if the cold wind enters, but something big will happen, the young master is really happy and stupid."
