It had been more than half a month since he returned to Beijing. The items had been handed over to Jin Daya and Old Hu to deal with. This saved Sun Weimin a lot of trouble. He had also become a monk halfway through his life. It was better to hand over this risky "illegal" work to the "old revolutions". He could deal with the "trampling on wealth" himself.
Speaking of this " trodden wealth ", it had been a year since Sun Weimin had it, and he had not had the time to " dispose " of it. This creature was extremely evil. If it were to wander outside again and let some heartless person go down to harm people, who knew what kind of disaster it would cause. It seemed that he had to find a good place for it.
Sun Weimin thought that since there was no " work " now, it seemed that Old Hu would not be able to move for ten days or half a month. He might as well go to Mount Wutai.
Sun Weimin had no choice but to go to Wutai Mountain. One reason was that the " Treading Wealth " was too overbearing. It was not that Luo Guangbao was surprised to suppress it. Another reason was that " there were many monks in the famous mountains in the world ", especially in the north. Near Beijing, Mount Wutai was the only place with many Taoist temples and Buddha walls. The Buddha's Light was also exuberant. There were many devotees and laymen, so the Qi was naturally prosperous. It was not strange that the Buddha's Light was revealed.
Buddhism was also very particular about Feng Shui."If you want to build a mandala, you must first choose the place, measure your own desires, and choose the corresponding place. First, you must receive the blessing from your teacher. Your heart must be unwavering. Then, you can choose the right time and auspicious day to build it.”It meant that to build a training ground, one had to choose a place and a date.
At the beginning, our Buddha told Sariputta to go to the temple according to the geomancy in order to spread the Dharma and establish a dojo in Sariputta City. Sariputta went from the east of the city to the west of the city, and then from the north of the city to the south of the city. He spent a lot of effort to find the best piece of land. Sariputta was very cautious and said,"I am Xiao Guo, and my dao power is low. When I enter a meditative state to observe, I will know whether it is good or evil.”Sariputta collected his mind and meditated. After a while, he looked at the garden pavilion and saw that there was no fault. In the past, hundreds and thousands of Buddhas have stopped to talk about the Dharma. So he reported,"This garden is not only suitable for my Master in this life, but also for a thousand Tathagas who have been through virtuous calamities. Jixiang is the best, and there is nothing wrong with it. The construction of the temple is only here.”From this, it could be seen that Buddhism also valued feng shui very much. (Geomancy is the meaning of Feng Shui. Kan is the Heavenly Dao.) The carriage is a tunnel. The human path, the three paths combined, meant the unity of heaven and man.
As for Mount Wutai, it was recorded in the Qingliang Mountain Annals that it was located in Yandai, surrounded by several states, and surrounded by four passes, with a circumference of more than five hundred miles. On the left is Hengyue Mountain, showing thousands of peaks; On the right is the Hutuo River, a long stream. North Ling purple plug, curb thousands of miles of smoke and dust; To the south is the Central Plains, which is the barrier of the great powers. The terrain of the mountain is difficult to describe. The five peaks stand in the middle, surrounded by thousands of peaks, curved and graceful, locking the long stream of thousands of roads; The verdant trees turn back to the mist, and the mountains are covered with hundreds of layers of mountains. The mountain is lofty and honest, and no other mountain can compare with it, so it has a big shape.”This was the Feng Shui of this place. Therefore, whether it was Taoism or Buddhism, they were all familiar with Feng Shui. Moreover, the ultimate art of Feng Shui was often hidden in Buddhism. Chen Tuan, who was the most proficient in the Book of Changes in Taoism, had learned it from a Buddhist monk. (Chen Tuan, also known as Tuman, is from Zhenyuan, Bozhou. Interested friends can take a look at the History of Song Dynasty.) Biography of Chen Tuan)
Sun Weimin observed Feng Shui while thinking about the similarities between Buddhism and Taoism. Unknowingly, he came to Huaitai Town in the hinterland of Wutai.
When he entered the town, he saw a white pagoda standing tall. It was very eye-catching. He felt strange and went to look for the pagoda. He saw a monastery called Pagoda Temple. Sun Weimin was very interested. He entered the temple and found that the temple faced north and south. There were many halls and pavilions. It was huge, estimated to be more than 20 acres. The construction was not too special from other temples. There was only a tall building called "Qinglong Building" in the east. It was shaped like an ancient city building, and the lower part was a brick square tower. Its height was similar to the mountain beams on both sides of the pagoda temple.
Azure Dragon House? This name was so strange. It seemed to be a Feng Shui house. Sun Weimin felt strange. Green Dragon was the god of the East, and it was located in the east. This building was named Green Dragon. No matter how he looked at it, it should be Feng Shui.
Sun Weimin, who was puzzled, thought of this and couldn't help but look at the terrain of the pagoda temple. He understood at a glance that this was indeed a feng shui house.
Fengshui houses were built when the feng shui of a place was difficult to take shape. When it was not a treasure land, people would build some buildings to supplement it and make it a treasure land with feng shui. It could also be said to be their own feng shui. In fact, there were many such situations. After all, there were not many natural Feng Shui treasures. Even if there were, they had long been occupied by others. Therefore, the Feng Shui was also very particular. Take the Pagoda Temple as an example. The west side of the temple was protected by a mountain beam (White Tiger Sand Mountain), while the east side seemed empty and helpless. Under the guidance of Feng Shui, in order to make up for the lack of weightlessness in the east, the Green Dragon Building was built to supplement the Feng Shui treasures. The meaning of the Green Dragon left plate, the White Tiger right lying, this was the Feng Shui of its own. (When you reach Wutai Mountain, you can go to the Pagoda Temple to take a look. The situation is indeed like this.)
Sun Weimin, who understood the reason, was happy. An old monk walked over and politely said,"Little benefactor, you have a murderous aura. Are you here to resolve the disaster?"”
Sun Weimin was shocked and thought to himself,"It seems that this old monk is also a person of the same path. Since he said my purpose, I don't need to hide anything." He opened his mouth and said,"Master, do you think there is a solution?"”Sun Weimin didn't take out the [Treading Wealth] either. It seemed like he wanted to try the old monk's [craftsmanship].
"Haha, little benefactor, since you're here, do you know the origin of this object?”The old monk was testing Sun Weimin. It seemed that he was not an ordinary person.
Sun Weimin was sweating profusely. He really didn't know the origin of this thing. He thought, Since the old monk could say this, then he must know. Why not ask him? He politely said,"Master, teach me."
When the old monk saw Sun Weimin admit defeat, he smiled and said,"Okay, then I'll tell you."
It turned out that the lions above the " Stepping on Wealth " really had a great background. They were originally a pair, and they were originally the " Wealth Spreading Children " under the God of Wealth. Because they were too greedy, they put the money distributed to the poor into their own pockets. When the God of Wealth found out, he was furious and banished them to the human world. They turned into a pair of stone lions and were placed on Kaifeng Imperial Street, outside the noon gate in front of Longting Lake, guarding the Forbidden City.
Even if they went to Longting Lake in Kaifeng now, they could still see a pair of majestic stone lions that were eye-catching. The stone lions stepped on embroidered balls and looked into the distance. Unlike the stone lions guarding the houses and warding off evil spirits in front of the ancient buildings of the Celestial Dynasty, the two stone lions had different expressions. The other one on the west side was glaring at him angrily. The one on the east side had its eyes closed and its mouth opened wide. It was like a sleeping lion that had suddenly woken up and stretched its waist. It also seemed to be looking down on the front as it whistled away.
There was a reason why they were like this. Speaking of which, this year, the Lantern Festival in Kaifeng, Tokyo, was especially lively. Whether it was the nobles or the commoners, all of them had lit up lanterns of various colors early on. The entire capital city was filled with colorful lights and glistened like stars. People crowded the streets to look at the lights. Not only did all the men and women of Tokyo come out, but even foreigners far away from Tokyo came to see the lanterns. The streets and alleys of Tokyo were packed to the brim, and even the pair of lions in front of the noon gate were alarmed. The two of them ignored the God of Wealth's ban and secretly turned into ordinary people to mingle with the crowd, wandering around and enjoying the pleasures of the human world.
They had seen enough and discussed privately under the lamp,"Look at the people of the Song Dynasty. They don't know how to be thrifty at all. Just for this Lantern Festival, who knows how much money they spend in a year! If they knew that we spit out ingots every year on the 16th night of the first lunar month, it would be strange if they didn't fight to the death to snatch them!”It turned out that when the God of Wealth banished them to the mortal world, he wanted them to spit out a gold ingot each year during the Lantern Festival until they spat out all the money they had embezzled. The God of Wealth had given them a rule that the ingots they spat out could only be picked up by the poor and could not be given to the greedy. Unexpectedly, their conversation was heard by a profiteer peeing in the corner. He came to the door of the afternoon court early on the 16th night of the first month and hid in the dark. He saw the stone lion with stars in its eyes and a gold ingot in its mouth. He was greedy and eager. Before the stone lion spat out the ingot, he jumped in front of the lion impatiently and used his hand to pull the ingot out of the lion's mouth. Seeing that it was a greedy person, the lion suddenly bit the ingot with its teeth and refused to let go. When the lion in the west saw this, it quickly shut its mouth and stopped vomiting. In the end, this profiteer fell in love for nothing.
Until today, one of the stone lions still had its eyes closed, while the other was clenching its teeth tightly onto Yuan Bao. (Friends who are going to Kaifeng can go and take a look. They are still here. It's best to go on the 16th of the first month. Maybe you can get some ingots. Don't forget to give me some when you get them ~)
Sun Weimin understood a lot after hearing about the lion's origin. He quickly took out Tacai and respectfully asked," How did this item come about?”
The old monk took a look and sighed." The world is vicious. They want to borrow the greed of the lions to obtain the money they demand. That's why they're like this. They don't even care about the cycle of karma and retribution. They're really dying for money." The old monk sighed and explained in detail to Sun Weimin.
Sun Weimin also completely understood that this " Stepping on Wealth " was deliberately done by people to borrow the greed of the greedy lion. Therefore, the " Wealth Spreading Boy " carved under the lion's feet meant that the nature would not change. They were originally children who distributed wealth. If they made mistakes, they would be punished in the lower realm. When the disaster was over, they could return to the upper realm and become children again. Now that it was carved like this, it meant that he had given up on the idea of repentance and would continue to be greedy for money.
Sun Weimin finally understood the origin of the object, and it was inevitable that he was happy. He stayed in the pagoda temple and talked with the old monk for many days. He really benefited a lot. The old monk had also helped him suppress the " Stepping Wealth " under the court, which could be considered to have eliminated a disaster.
