Chapter Seven: The Straight Path to Heaven, the City of Buddhism, and the Killing of Bodhicitta(2/3)

On his forehead, a rune was drawn.

"Okay! You can't run away now!" The fierce monk threatened: "If you dare to run away, I will chant a spell and send them to hell, and they will never be reincarnated!"

After saying that, he recited the mantra, and the heads hanging around his neck all spoke together, making dozens of chanting sounds noisy.

However, the souls of the slaves escaped from their bodies and saw the demon monk standing high above them, while they seemed to be struggling in his hands.

Everyone was scared out of their wits.

Qian Chen could tell at a glance that this method was just to plant a blood curse in the slave's body so that he could be caught when he escaped.

With that monster monk's cultivation level, if he wanted to capture people's souls from the air, he would have to pay a lot of souls and still not get back the original value! Of course, it would be much easier to plant the illusion of hell and fear now and then cast the spell in the future.

.

And that hell is just the Gargong magic weapon in his hand, with more than twenty levels of restrictions and a hundred and eight living souls refined into it.

Moreover, the method of soul refining is extremely crude, not to mention compared to the demons refined by the devil, even the methods used by some leftists to concoct evil ghosts are cleaner and neater than this.

Seeing Qian Chen's ascetic attire, the demon monk's eyes lit up. The head of a person with strong mental power is most suitable for refining magic weapons. If he really encounters a monk who has no cultivation but no cultivation.

His Gagong bowl can be replaced with an embryo immediately!

"Where did this thing come from? It doesn't have any magic power, and it dares to pretend to be my Buddhist disciple!" The demon monk's eyes flashed with fierceness, and he went up to catch Qian Chen.

But Tuoba Tao stood in front of him and said: "Master, this person is an eminent monk I invited from overseas. He practices closed-mouthed meditation and prays for my grandmother's longevity. Master, since you are not good at praying, don't stand in front of me.

!”

Seeing Tuoba Tao holding down the long knife at his waist, the demon monk could only smile but said: "It turns out that it is the guest invited by the old lady Tuoba, but it is my blindness!"

"We are stupid and don't understand Master's Dafa. My master just mentioned the day before yesterday that he wanted to accept a disciple with good foundation!"

"I think this novice monk has a good foundation. If he has any good skills overseas, why not join me as a disciple of the master and become a fellow disciple? It will be a blessing!"

Although Tuoba Tao is not afraid of this monster monk, the master he talks about is an eminent monk with extremely high magical power and profound cultivation among the six towns. He is highly respected by the believers and trusted by the nobles of the six towns. He only accepts disciples.

Don't worry, it's just a mixed bag of people.

If he met Qian Chen, he might really be interested in accepting a disciple.

Moreover, that man was already a Yin Shen cultivator, and also practiced Buddhism and Taoism. He was known as the Patriarch of Dalabatu. Even the old lady of his family had to be careful to deal with this person.

Qian Chen raised his eyes slightly after hearing this.

I was thinking about whether I should find a well-established monk to break my first killing ritual...

After all, it is so satisfying to use Buddhist people to break the Buddhist prohibition of killing, and to end all the merits and karma with one sword!

All kinds of causes and effects arise, endless karma worries, and the murderous intention is still the same as before. This is - breaking the precepts sword technique.

To put it bluntly:

My hands are itchy!

I want to sharpen my knife!

After frightening away the monster monk, Tuoba Tao had to go back with the sun gold to recover, so he asked one of the Xianbei people to take Qian Chen to the deserted areas of the six towns to find a place to stay temporarily.

The Huangji was just outside the barracks. It was originally a gathering place for the families of the soldiers. Later, gradually, female dancers, juggling, gambling, laundry, and cooking, many Huangji people gradually moved in, forming large and small ghettos.

son.

Although this is not conducive to raising the army for combat, the upper management has tried several times to stop it.

We can only let this strange scene of a market next to the barracks be tolerated.

That is to say, the six border towns, if it is Chang'an and Luoyang, the barracks will have to be detoured from the market...

Qian Chen walked silently asking for alms. Through various practices along the way, the so-called traces of karma are just two words - influence! Karma is the various influences left by sentient beings in this world.

This influence is invisible and intangible. It is placed in matter and manifested as laws.

Only when it falls in the heart, and all dharmas are transmitted to me, can they be disturbed in the heart, and can be transmitted from heart to heart. However, all dharmas have no self, so they are called 'karma'. The manifested karma is nothing but the Buddha's cause and effect, which strengthens oneself.

Give it a carrier.

Qian Chen's journey is actually to let the influence flowing among all living beings flow through his heart and imprint it with his heart.

This influence is manifested in six kinds of magical powers.

His mind can detect everything he sees. Ordinary people have slow perception and have barriers in their hearts, so they can know their own hearts but not other people's hearts. Qian Chen's infinite karma has turned into his mind, which is what he sees and what he sees.

All living beings can hear, know, and feel all the thoughts in their hearts.

Good and evil!

True and false!

The beauty and evil of human nature all come one by one with karma.

This was also the reason why Qian Chen remained silent and indifferent. After all the previous killings and cutting off living beings, all kinds of causes and effects on them condensed into forms and landed on Nezha Xiang.

Qian Chen was troubled by the traces left by more than a hundred lives in this world.

Although these people are called sea merchants and are actually pirates, most of their worries are just like this.

But it is inevitable that some people have lingering consciences, or they have wives and children at home. Through his mind communication, he can feel their sincere concern, especially the children's expectation for their father to come home, which is not easy to bear.

What's more, Wulun also has destiny, which can evolve into various futures.

Qian Chen was aware of the fate of a girl who starved to death and was sold to all kinds of misery. He couldn't bear it several times and wanted to break out of the Yasha Ghost Department. He quickly escaped to those people and rescued her in accordance with the law.

But he can't!

If you save one person, you will save thousands of people. If you are biased, you will be partial to all kinds of thoughts.

These six magical powers add to the karma, and secretly contain various Buddhist methods. If one cannot clearly understand the difference between the original heart and other hearts in this compassionate heart, Qian Chen will be saved sooner or later.

How easy it is to say ‘I don’t want to’!

But if you really don't go against your true heart, how difficult it is to face all the miseries in the world.

At this time, Qian Chen must be hard-hearted!

"My ears listen to the suffering of life, my eyes observe all the difficulties, my heart is full of compassion, and I don't have the bodhicitta! I am fighting against the Bodhisattva in my heart!"

Qian Chen could only smile bitterly. This was the first time he had collided with the Bodhisattva's Taoist heart.

It is extremely difficult to do it consistently.

It’s not easy to remain indifferent…

Fortunately, he is not the first cause of all kinds of suffering and karma. It is just that the suffering of all living beings enters his ears and reflects in his eyes along with the karma.

If he had allowed his karma to rotate and caused these sufferings with his own hands, his inner pressure would be even heavier.

This is also the reason why Qian Chen remained silent and devoted himself to asceticism.

Whatever he does now, there is endless pressure from his heart, so he can only temporarily cut off his own karma and hone himself bit by bit until he breaks the five precepts one by one.

Just when Qian Chen was wielding the knife in his heart, facing the suffering that comes with all kinds of karma, and facing the most complex human problems in the world with his own heart.

He was also walking through the market street holding a wooden bowl as he practiced asceticism.

After all, Huaihuang Town has a profound influence from Buddhism.

Although Qian Chen looked like a novice monk of sixteen or seventeen years old, with his tattered clothes and thin body, he looked like a real ascetic monk.

Such an act with a strong sense of religious ritual is the easiest to attract believers. Soon a rich man opened his pockets and wanted to give away pearls and gems. Qian Chen raised his hand slightly and refused the gift. Another person brought the remaining water and poured it.

In his wooden bowl.

According to Buddhism, Qian Chen cannot refuse.

Although he was not a serious monk, Qian Chen decided to follow the precepts before breaking the five precepts.

There was even an old poor woman on the road who was equally skinny and showing her age, giving him food and water.

The karma turned around and almost made Qian Chen unable to hold himself any longer.

The good intentions conveyed by his telepathic message were true, but one month after the fateful telepathic message was received, the old man's granddaughter would die of hunger and thinness, and part of the karma was transferred to the food.

I need life-saving rations from others.

If Qian Chen hadn't been a wise man, he would have wanted to teach this old woman a lesson. How could he have used the remaining grain to give alms to the monks?

But in his mind, the old woman clearly understood this. Although Qian Chen looked really thin when giving alms to Qian Chen, the poor also had a kind heart, and there were various blessings from giving alms according to Buddhist teachings.

She actually had a faint despair about her granddaughter's life and death, and a kind of compassion to build her merits in the next life.

"The karma is endless!"

Qian Chen has deep roots in his heart that Buddhism cannot save the world, and magical power cannot transcend everything.

Even so, he still wants to save people...

"What if we chant mantras and apply magical powers to save people? What's the difference between me and the Buddha? We both use magical powers to create an illusory world, but in the face of the suffering of all living beings, is it too hypocritical to have magical powers but not use them?"

"In the past, when the Buddha faced the destruction of his country, he chose Buddhism between Buddhism and supernatural powers."

"But faced with the suffering of all living beings, he finally chose to combine Buddhism and supernatural powers to try to save the world."

"I can't be inferior to Buddha! Buddha also knew that supernatural powers are not as good as Buddhism, so he must put Buddhism first!"
