Chapter 620 (1/2)
iver bank.
The small fishing village where Tang Xuanzang is now located is a water village built on water and dominated by bamboo and wood. It is about seven or eight buildings high and lives more than 100 fishermen.
On weekdays, men and women weave, a happy and harmonious small fishing village. At this time, the river is stained with blood, and the air is filled with thick blood.
The fishermen screamed and fled home in panic. The scene was chaotic. Only Chen Xuanzang, who fell on the water tower because he preached truth, goodness and beauty and aroused public anger, had nowhere to escape.
”Whoosh ~ ~”
A colorful jelly like suction cup stuck to the village head who prevented the false Taoist from escaping and dragged him into the river.
The villagers who were already panicked became frightened in an instant and accelerated their escape.
”Don't run, everybody.”
”Get down, get down.”
”... will you pretend to be dead?”
Chen Xuanzang, who was hanged, shouted loudly.
Instead of being angry at the villagers' angry treatment, he sincerely cared about everyone on the scene and worried about the emergence of the next victim.
His character is commendable.
However, pan Haodong has one thing unknown
He patted the small chest of Guanyin avatar with indignation on his face and said, ”sister, why did you stop me from killing the demon? It's eating people, eating several people at a time! Why? ”
Duan Xiaoxiao slightly lowered his head and watched his brother pat his hand on his chest. He was stunned and said, ”I suspect you are taking advantage of me, and I have evidence.”
”Cough ~ ~”
Being exposed to his face, Mr. Pan looked a little embarrassed and said, ”don't change the topic, I want to explain.”
Duan Xiaoxiao shook his head and smiled. Lying on the porch, he said, ”after they die, they will vote for a good family and exchange one life for the wealth of the next life. Is this explanation enough?”
”Do you Buddhists like to use afterlife as an excuse?”
Pan Haodong's tone of voice was still dissatisfied. Buddhism did not hesitate to allow monsters to harm the people for the great plan of traveling to the West. It was utterly ungrateful.
Perhaps, Buddhism will really arrange innocent people to be reborn into a good family in the next life, but will they be happier than now?
not always.
For example, the little girl who will be swallowed by the fish demon will live forever. Her father may not be able to make more money to improve family life, but before the fish demon appeared, the Changsheng family was very happy. The Changsheng father fished to make a living, teased his clever daughter in his spare time, and his mother did housework. Ordinary and light days may not be as happy as the rich.
Ancient society is not a world full of material desires.
The health of the family here, with food and clothing, is a hard won happiness.
For the afterlife?
Pan Haodong just wanted to say two words.
——Ha ha!
”I know what you want to say, but it's a Buddhist plan. Even I can't change too much. What I can do is to screen good people and make them better in their next life.”
When this is said in a short novel, there is a trace of sadness between her eyebrows. People have a lot of things they can't help themselves. In fact, great immortals like her are the same.
Even if she wants to turn back, she will be suppressed by Buddha such as Tathagata and Maitreya Buddha.
”I can ignore others, but I will never sit idly by that little girl.”
Pan Haodong's eyes always stay on longevity. He is also a person with a daughter. When he sees a cute little girl, he can't help but give birth to father's love.
Once the fish demon stares at longevity.
He will kill.
Duan Xiaoxiao was silent for a while and said, ”you can save people, but you can't kill demons.”
While paying attention to guarding longevity, pan Haodong said, ”I don't understand that there are so many monsters in the world, and there are not a few good monsters bent on good. Why do you have to use such monsters for your journey to the west?”
”In fact, it's OK to change it, but it's more troublesome.”
Duan Xiaoxiao poked away a wisp of long hair scattered in the corners of his eyes and slowly said: ”moreover, it is easier to attract people's attention to let monsters abandon evil and follow good than recruiting good monsters to do things. Traveling westward is of great significance to Buddhism. It needs more people's attention to spread their faith to the greatest extent and let people believe in Buddhism.”
”Sister Guanyin, aren't you afraid that I'll go back to Tianting Gaomi?”
