MTL - Prehistoric: A Stable Life, Starting From the Journey To the West-Chapter 59
Don't ask, to ask is to seek alms and to preach the Dharma.
What, you don't want to hear it, and don't let the eminent monks enter the door?
He meows and asks if you want your arm still.
........
Jinchengfang, the small courtyard where Chen Qi lives.
"Master, why don't we go to Huichang Temple and ask the Buddha to leave the door!"
"Today, this is the thirteenth wave of eminent monks coming to seek alms. If we come again, we will really eat dirt."
"I heard from the neighbor next door yesterday that as long as we go to Huichang Temple to put Qingzun Bodhisattva at the door, foreign monks will not come to us for alms."
After the little book boy Chen An once again sent away a wave of eminent monks who came to beg for alms, he couldn't bear it any longer, and ran to the study to complain to Chen Qi.
Hearing this, Chen Qi couldn't help but twitch twice at the corner of his mouth.
Good guy, what does it mean to listen to this?
This Jinchengfang is covered by Huichang Temple. As long as you go to Huichang Temple and invite the Buddha to come back and pay the protection fee to Huichang Temple, you don't have to worry about monks from other areas coming to seek alms.
Really good guy!
The way of the monks of the Tang Dynasty has really gone off-road.
There is still half a month before the amphibious conference.
If I really want to get to the back, I don't know if any temples have opened up for the sake of the site.
Chen Qi was speechless, but he was not prepared to have trouble with the Buddhist monks at this time.
If you invite a bodhisattva, please invite a bodhisattva.
Anyway, it is to enlarge the door, not to put the study.
It would be nice to have a Bodhisattva looking at the gate.
I don't know how the Bodhisattva looked at the gate. Don't stop the thief, but the thief steals the Bodhisattva.
Chen Qi thought for a while, intending to break the wealth and avoid disaster, and asked, "How do you invite the Bodhisattva of Huichang Temple? Do you have any ideas?"
When the little book boy heard the news, he said, "I heard from Aunt Chen in the yard next door that the eminent monks of Huichang Temple will determine which Bodhisattva to invite and how big the Bodhisattva should be based on the family situation of the people in Chang'an."
"Low-level families, as long as you have a three-inch-sized Bodhisattva hanging at the door, the price is not high, only ninety-nine dollars."
"Ordinary families ask for a six-inch bodhisattva to hang at the door. The price is nine hundred and ninety-nine dollars."
"The rich family invites a nine-inch bodhisattva, and the price is nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine."
"The top is a special family, the home of powerful officials, and the eminent monks of Huichang Temple will send special monks to bring the Bodhisattva. The price is generally based on the owner's consideration, and you can give it as much as you want. The more you give, the more respect you show to the Bodhisattva."
Chen Qi: "..."
He meows, this is the attention of which ghost monk came up with.
If you have the mind, you will not go to the imperial examination to become an official to benefit the people, but to be a monk.
Even if you don't become an official, you can become a businessman and everyone, why do you have to become a monk?
Isn't this a scourge!
Could it be that there are already so many talented people in Buddhism now?
Really the clown is in the palace, and the master is in the folk!
I don't know what the bodhisattvas who were invited home would think when they found out about this.
The Bodhisattva co-authored with me can also clearly mark the price according to the size!
Chen Qi was speechless, thought about it and asked, "Then what kind of family are we going to be, is it an ordinary family or a wealthy family?"
After he finished speaking, he also felt that discussing this matter was meaningless, so he directly said to Chen An: "Forget it, go to Huichang Temple and invite the nine-inch Bodhisattva back, this nine-inch Bodhisattva should be able to show our respect for the Bodhisattva. ."
Well, he has now resigned and is going back to his hometown to sell sweet potatoes, so he can't be related to special families.
A nine-inch bodhisattva hanging on the door is enough to express respect for the bodhisattva.
When the little book boy Chen An heard the words, he immediately said with great joy: "Haole, young master, wait a moment, I will go to Huichang Temple to invite the Bodhisattva!"
God knows, he's almost been nerfed by the eminent monks who came to beg for alms recently.
I just hope that the Bodhisattva of Huichang Temple can give some strength.
After you come back, you can make those foreign Buddhist monks retreat.
Well, back off! .
Chapter 98 Debate: Donor, you can't stand the nine-inch Bodhisattva in your house (please subscribe)
The little book boy Chen An went to Huichang Temple to invite the Bodhisattva.
Chen Qi didn't care too much. After all, he had a local tyrant dragon as his friend, and he was not short of money now.
Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine coins.
Let's give Shiguan directly, and the remaining penny is not needed. Quan should be the travel fee for the eminent monks to go to the Western Paradise of Elysium.
I just hope that the eminent monks can go all the way well, and don't get off the bus halfway.
It is better for such eminent monks to go to the Western Paradise of Elysium, and save money for making sins in the world.
Chen Qi took a deep breath and calmed down the injustice in his heart, and then wrote with a pen: "If you don't make alchemy, you won't sit in meditation, if you don't work for merchants, you won't plow the fields. If you write freely, you will sell it on the green hills, and you won't make money in the world."
This is a poem "Yanzhi" written by Tang Yin in the Ming Dynasty.
The title of the poem is "Yanzhi"!
Easy to understand, even ordinary people who have not read the book can understand the meaning of the poem.
This poem describes the author's ambition to be indifferent to fame and fortune, and to focus on free reading and selling paintings.
At the same time, it also expresses what the poet did not do after abandoning fame and fortune.
Chen Qi also suddenly thought of this poem "Yanzhi".
As for why he wrote this poem at this time, it is definitely an accident.
It's definitely not because he looks down on the eminent monks of the Tang Dynasty, nor does he look down on the Bodhisattva.
Because, he still wants arms.
After writing a piece of "Yanzhi", the uneasy feeling in my heart also calmed down a little.
Now in this situation, what can he do, he is also helpless.
Above, there is the Bodhisattva Buddha of the Buddhist Spirit Mountain staring, and below, the streets of Chang'an City are full of bald heads.
In the middle, there is also the "Saint Ming" emperor of the Tang Dynasty, showing the support of horses and horses.
Even if he is dissatisfied with the Buddhist monks, what can he do?
Is it possible that there will be another article "The Theory of Exterminating Buddhas and Getting Rich"?
If that's the case, even if he has 18 arms, it's not enough to chop!
So it can only be tolerated temporarily.
After about half an hour, it was almost noon, and the little book boy Chen An who went to invite the Bodhisattva finally came back.
It's just that the little book boy didn't come back alone, and beside him was a handsome young monk wearing a white robe, with red lips and white teeth.
Seeing this, Chen Qi couldn't help frowning.
The little book boy Chen An went to Huichang Temple to invite the Bodhisattva, but the nine-inch Bodhisattva did not invite back, but brought back a handsome young monk.
This made Chen Qi have to have a bad feeling in his heart.
"Master, this is the Master Debating Ji of Huichang Temple ¨〃."
The little book boy Chen An first introduced Chen Qi to the handsome young monk behind him, and then said with a bitter face: "Master, Master Guangde of Huichang Temple said that our family belongs to a special family, so we specially sent Master Defenji to join us. Come back, pray for our family's disaster relief, and see which Bodhisattva is more suitable."
Hearing this, Chen Qi couldn't help but look at the monk Bianji behind Chen An.
This Buddhist monk deserves to be a "dao" monk who can attract the favor of the Tang princess.
This appearance, this appearance, is indeed handsome and extraordinary.
Compared with the five-year-old, three-thick, muscular wife, it is no wonder that Princess Gao Yang gave her fiance a green hat.
"It turned out to be the master of the debate machine. Chen couldn't help feeling honored when the master came to the humble house."
Chen Qi put down the ancient book in his hand, got up and smiled, and then asked in a calm tone, "I wonder what kind of Bodhisattva I should invite in this small courtyard?"
Chen Qi said that here, he is ready for hemorrhage.
Bottom family, three-inch Bodhisattva, ninety-nine coins.
Ordinary family, six-inch Bodhisattva, nine hundred and ninety-nine coins.
Rich family, nine-inch Bodhisattva, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine coins.
Special families are the homes of princes, nobles and officials.
Although, special families invite the Bodhisattva, and the host family is free to give how much money.
But people say that you are a special family, and they also provide you with a house to pray for blessings and send a Bodhisattva to your home. The price cannot be less than the nine-inch Bodhisattva of a wealthy family.
"The Debating Machine has seen Patron Chen!"
Just when Chen Qi was debating a lot of machines, the debating machines were also in a lot of Chen Qi, and he glanced at the decoration of Chen Qi's study, then folded his hands in a Buddha salute, and said with a smile:
"Master Chen, the feng shui of your house is not very good. With the stupid opinion of the debate, a nine-inch bodhisattva can't hold back!"
Hearing this, Chen Qi was not surprised at all, and said with an expressionless face, "I wonder what kind of Bodhisattva Master Bianji thinks is needed to be able to hold my small courtyard?"
Now that he has made preparations for bankruptcy and disaster relief, Chen Qi never thought about saving money.
Lu Xun once said that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years.
Isn't it Huichang Temple? The money to invite the Bodhisattva should be lent to them temporarily.
Anyway, nine out of thirteen returns, the profit and the profit or something, just count it directly.
Don't let them all spit out at that time, do you really think that he, the transmigrator, is giving it for nothing?
So Chen Qi looked very wide, and waited quietly for the monk Bianji to speak.
When the monk Bianji heard the words, he was not angry, and smiled: "I once heard that Patron Chen was a jinshi in this year's examination, and a piece of advice drew applause from the whole hall and caused a sensation in the whole city of Chang'an. a job."
"'In the humble opinion of the defense, the ordinary Bodhisattva in Chen Shizhu's house really can't hold it, and he must hire a superintendent to guard the hell, and the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who saves evil ghosts, is not acceptable."
"Furthermore, the three-foot-three-inch Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is required!"
The monk Bianji said with a smile, he saw that Chen Qi was still not angry, and he snorted coldly in his heart, and he didn't care about the people of Buddhist monks. ",.5?:6.;;6,1!8,!,8?.\':?!6!.Preparation!;Use:,!中?,Turn.group,!7,6\', 6,;0!1.8:\"\"3\'\"2!,0, and said bluntly: "According to the regulations of my Huichang Temple, the three feet and three inches of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva requires ninety-nine taels of gold. "
After the monk Bianji finished speaking, he stared at Chen Qi and asked, "I wonder how Patron Chen feels?"
He had already made up his mind, as long as Chen Qi couldn't help but get angry, he would deduct a name for slandering the monk and slander the Buddha, so that he could not eat and walk around.
However, to his disappointment, Chen Qi didn't get angry when he heard the offer of Ksitigarbha King Bodhisattva, and just gave him a meaningful look.
Then he said calmly: "No problem, Chen An, you will go with Master Bianji again, and go to Huichang Temple to invite a three-foot-three-inch Earth Store King Bodhisattva to come back."
After Chen Qi finished speaking, he didn't even look at Monk Bianji, he just picked up the tea cup on the desk and took a sip of pong.
Its meaning is self-evident: serving tea to guests!
When the monk Bianji saw this, he was furious in his heart and sneered: "Then I would like to thank the donor Chen. I believe that with the suppression of the Dharma image of Ksitigarbha King Bodhisattva, the donor's family will be able to live safely, and everything will be safe."
After the debate machine finished speaking, without waiting for Chen An to speak, he waved his sleeves and turned to leave.
After the monk Bianji left, Chen Qi raised his head again and looked at the background of the departure of the monk Bianji, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He's meow, he's already prepared to break the bank and eliminate disasters, but I didn't expect that the monks in Chang Temple were not ready to let him go.
If he had to endure and retreat at this point, it would be strange if his thoughts could be understood.
Huichang Temple, monk Bianji, right?
Let's ride a donkey to read the songbook and wait and see.
Chen Qi sneered, and took out a copy of "The Great Prajna Sutra" from the bookshelf beside him.
