Chapter 49 Offering to the Three Treasures
Hase Shuichi lay on the ground for a long time until Pinggong Chiye walked over and pulled him up, and then he got up.
"You knew that guy must have exaggerated what he said, so why did you beat me up?"
Hase Shuichi's attitude is no longer as arrogant as it was at the beginning.
"Because I think people like you won't obey unless you give them a beating."
Hiramiya Chiya replied calmly. In his opinion, Akechi Mitsuhide and Hase Shuichi were essentially people of the same character.
"Who is like him!"
“Who wants to be like him?”
Two people spoke almost in unison.
After they finished speaking, the two looked at each other, then turned away tacitly and chose silence.
Hiramiya Chiye, who was walking in front, said nothing more and led Akechi Mitsuhide and Hase Hideichi into the hall to pay homage.
Vairocana Tathagata is the supreme deity of Tantric Buddhism and the highest Tathagata revered by Tantric Buddhism.
Hase Shuichi paid homage to Mahavairocana and glanced slowly across the entire hall.
Simple and visibly poor.
Not only this statue of Vairocana has no external decorations, but other Buddhist supplies and details also exude a sense of poverty.
This Master Liansheng is very short of money.
Yes, Weilian Ancient Temple is just a small family temple. According to the current rate of disappearance of small temples in Japan, it is already quite difficult for small temples to survive.
The temple is small but the monks are great.
Hase Hideichi glanced at Hiramiya Chiye who was walking in front of him and felt emotional.
Although he did not fully inherit his master's true teachings, he was not weak among the younger generation, but he was still easily thrown down three times.
There is no ability to resist at all, the gap is too big.
Perhaps even his master with his old arms and legs would not be a match for Master Liansheng.
With such accomplishments, it is not an exaggeration to call him a master.
But he was too young, only 16 years old...
I was 16 years old at that time. I had made my master angry and was punished to copy scriptures.
When the world is about to fall into chaos, evil will surely appear.
This sentence really makes sense.
After paying homage to Vairocana Buddha and touring the entire Weilian Ancient Temple, Pinggong Qianye led them out of the temple and to the shadow of the large banyan tree at the entrance.
He didn't like to bring things happening outside back home to deal with, as that would disturb his mother.
"I know why you are here, but you will be disappointed. I don't know the whereabouts of the great monster Qingxuande now." Pinggong Qianye said frankly.
Hase Hideichi smiled awkwardly, "I think you guys have misunderstood something. Do you really think that someone with my strength can be a match for the great monster Aoandon?"
"Dream on!" Akechi Mitsuhide sneered disdainfully.
"I am only here on the orders of my master to investigate the mystery of the life and death of the great monster Qingxuandeng. All I want is a definite result."
Hase Hideichi chuckled and said, "With Master Liansheng's words, my mission has been accomplished."
"..."
Akechi Mitsuhide, who was standing by, was speechless.
This person made such a big fuss in Tokyo just to get such a sentence?
Are you stupid?
If I had known this would be the case, would I have needed to play so many tricks on him?
Hase Hideichi ignored Mitsuhide Akechi's gaze and said, "Master's mission has been completed. Now it's my own business."
He asked seriously, "Master Liansheng, may I ask how you practice?"
"Why can you have such a high level of cultivation at such a young age?"
"Could it be that you are really like your online name, born from a lotus, the reincarnation of some great Buddhist master?"
Akechi Mitsuhide also became interested and looked over.
Pinggong Qianye thought seriously for a while and said, "Reciting scriptures, reading books, practicing, enlightenment, and exorcising evil spirits."
"Is that it?" Hase Hideichi and Akechi Mitsuhide were stunned.
"There aren't many shortcuts on the path of cultivation."
"..."
Faced with such remarks, the two remained silent. They would not have asked about this topic if they had known earlier.
The sheer talent gap makes people even more desperate! Hase Hideichi chatted with Pinggong Qianye for a long time, exchanged mobile phone numbers, and finally left Weilian Ancient Temple with a sense of unfulfilled desire.
"Hiragiya, where is my cultivation method?"
Akechi Mitsuhide approached Hiramiya Chiye with an excited look on his face.
After what happened today, his enthusiasm for cultivation was particularly high.
The cultivation method that Pinggong Qianye mentioned made him look forward to it even more than partying all night long.
His goal at this stage is to practice well and then beat up Hase Shuichi.
Heimiya Chiye asked Akechi Mitsuhide to wait here, and he went home to get the "Great Sage's Joyful Offering Method" and the booklet and gave them to Akechi Mitsuhide.
"This is simply a supreme method tailor-made for me!"
Akechi Mitsuhide was so engrossed in reading after only a few pages that he looked very excited.
"Ping Gong, don't refuse."
Akechi Mitsuhide directly took out a check, wrote a string of numbers on it, lowered his head slightly, held the check in both hands and handed it to Pinggong Qianye, and said very seriously: "Master Liansheng, today you taught me the method of offering, so I will also offer to the Three Treasures of the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha of Weilian Ancient Temple."
Pinggong Qianye took a look and saw that it was a check for exactly 1000 million yen.
silence.
This is the way the world is, the rich are very rich and the poor are very poor.
The amount of money I have earned from exorcising evil spirits for three years is roughly this amount.
So, when it comes to making money, it should be earned by whoever has money.
Pinggong Qianye did not refuse this offering. He used the money to purchase Homa instruments and save enough money to build a pagoda.
He had always wanted to build a pagoda, but an ancient temple without a pagoda always felt like something was missing.
Then he will use his great magical powers to consecrate the entire pagoda and use it to suppress the area covered by the Weilian Ancient Temple.
……
Beams of light from the setting sun penetrate deep into the forest.
An old bell in an ancient temple deep in the mountains, an old monk in a light grey cassock, holding a sutra in his left hand with his thumb pinched inward, and gently stroking it with his right index finger.
His eyes are focused and his expression is serious, as if he is appreciating some great wisdom, great light, and having some sudden enlightenment.
Until an untimely cell phone ring sounded, the old monk moved his index finger slightly, switching the screen from the hot dance video to the call interface.
"Master, I saw Master Liansheng with my own eyes."
The old monk smiled and said, "It is your fate to meet Master Liansheng."
"Master, do you really know the true identity of this Master Liansheng?"
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little strange.
"Foolish boy, why bother about his identity? He is Master Liansheng, he is Master Liansheng."
"Master, I am grateful for your instruction."
Hase Shuichi originally wanted to tell his master that the so-called Master Liansheng was just a 16-year-old high school student.
But with his master's admonition, he suppressed the thought.
"According to Master Liansheng himself, the great monster Qingxuandeng has indeed been resurrected, but its whereabouts are unknown now."
"Well, that's enough."
"Master, why do you care so much about the mystery of the life and death of the great monster Qingxuandeng?"
"Because it represents the mystery of life and death."
The call was quickly hung up, and the old monk put away his phone, no longer in the mood to enjoy the hot dance.
Instead, he looked towards a pagoda at the foot of the mountain with a thoughtful look on his face.
In the conversation just now, there was a detail that concerned him.
Akechi Mitsuhide, a young monk who was friends with Master Rensheng.
This person's name is not simple, and it has a special connection with him, which makes him have to think deeply about it.
Because his secular name was Oda Sohe, the Oda of Oda Nobunaga.
He is also the abbot of Honnoji Temple.
When people in the present world overlap with historical figures inexplicably, it always gives people a trance feeling of traveling through time and space.
