Wei Xiaoman replied calmly, "The Bodhisattva took the ax for me, which illustrates a problem." You have to understand that Bodhisattvas will only help good people, not bad people. If I really have an improper relationship with the wild man you call me, then I am a bad person. Will the Bodhisattva save me? Since Bodhisattva saved me, it means that I am not a bad person, but a good person, and I am your upright wife.
Zhu Youneng's sad face showed a little smile line, and said Xiaoman, I now believe that you have nothing to do with that wild man. Now that you have said it, I think so too. The reason why the Bodhisattva saved you was to take an ax for you. , because you are a good person. Fortunately, Bodhisattva helped, otherwise I would have really chopped you off.
At this point, his mood became positive and excited, and he said to a policeman in front of him who was silently listening to their conversation, "Comrade policeman, I didn't kill anyone, why are you still detaining me?" Let me out quickly, let me out quickly...
Shut up. The policeman pointed at him and said, "Zhu Youneng, it's not that you didn't kill anyone, you just attempted murder, and you had an ax as the murder weapon. Can you deny this irrefutable evidence?" As long as you have the motive to kill, no matter what the outcome is, it will be considered a crime if you detain it according to the laws of the country. It's just an attempted murder, which is a lighter crime than the fact of causing the murder, but you must be brought to justice. How could you be let go? Are you making fun of the country's laws?
The words left Zhu Youneng speechless. Wei Xiaoman asked him to reform, change his ways, and be a new person, otherwise she would be determined to remarry. Zhu Youneng raised his hand and patted his bald head, which had lost its hair in the house, and said, "Honey, I am already bald. If you divorce me, won't I become a bachelor?" Don't worry, I will definitely reform and live a good life with you after I am released.
That night, Guanyin Bodhisattva used sleepy bugs to lull Wei Xiaoman to sleep and avert her murder. Then he used a trick to move the enshrined statue from there to the door of the hall, so that Zhu Youneng, who was standing in the dark outside the door, looked at the back of Wei Xiaoman with the faint candlelight that had not yet been extinguished on the candlestick. .
Just like that, Zhu Youneng angrily swung the ax and chopped hard at her neck. How does he know? It was not Wei Xiaoman who was chopped down, but the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva rescued Wei Xiaoman. Seeing that Zhu Youneng was running away in fear of crime, he wanted to use worldly law to bring Zhu Youneng to justice. With this thought in mind, an old man with crane hair walked in outside the door. He put his palms together and bowed several times to Guanyin Bodhisattva, claiming to be the little earth immortal of this solitary place. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva clasped his hands and returned the courtesy. Are you the Earthly Immortal Pei Shi En?
Xiaoxian is it. What did the Bodhisattva say? Earth Immortal Pei Shien said respectfully.
Bodhisattva, please do one thing for you. You will appear in human form and go to the Shiniuling Police Station tomorrow to report the crime, saying that the kiln master Zhu Youneng killed his wife with an ax and fled, and tell the hiding place so that the police can find him. Guanshiyin Bodhisattva had just finished speaking, and Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en said in a difficult tone, Bodhisattva, since you saved Wei Xiaoman's life, what's the point of reporting the case? Even if the murderer Zhu Youneng is caught, he will not be acquitted if he attempts to kill someone?
This statement is ridiculous! Although Zhu Youneng attempted murder, he was guilty and his behavior violated world law. If Zhu Youneng is not arrested and allowed to receive education and awaken in the process of reform, he will remain ignorant and leave a legacy of disaster. Once he finds out that Wei Xiaoman was not hacked to death that time, he will definitely plan a second murder, which is very dangerous. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva explains the truth very thoroughly.
Xiaoxian understands, thank you Bodhisattva for your enlightenment. Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en, who still had his palms clasped, nodded and said.
The next day, Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en completed his task of reporting the crime and left the Shiniuling Police Station. He looked up at the distant west and said, "Bodhisattva, the little immortal also has something to ask for. Now I want to tell you. I wonder if the Bodhisattva can hear me."
Speaking. There was an echo in the air, but the holy image of Guanyin Bodhisattva was nowhere to be seen.
Bodhisattva, can you show the little god a special way, which is the way to be reborn in the Western Paradise? Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en knelt on the ground, clasped his hands together, and spoke his heartfelt words devoutly.
Earth Immortal Pei Shi En, there are 84,000 ways to be reborn in the Western Paradise and become a Buddha. Each method has its own characteristics. If you practice diligently, you can fulfill your wish once the opportunity is ripe. As far as your situation is concerned, it is suitable to practice the Pure Land method, that is, to recite the Buddha's name exclusively, and you will surely be reborn in the Western world of ultimate rebirth. There is still the sound of Bodhisattva's teachings in the air.
Bodhisattva, from now on, if I chant the name of the Buddha, when will I be able to fulfill my wish? The Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en who asked the question looked at the sky without blinking, as if he was afraid of missing the opportunity for the Bodhisattva to appear.
You are in the divine way, and you can only fulfill your wish until the end of your immortal life. The sound in the air was still so clear and smooth, clearly the sound of nature.
As an Earth Immortal, I have a lifespan of several thousand years. Isn't a few thousand years too long? Bodhisattva, can you help me so that I can be reborn in bliss as soon as possible, and let the flowers bloom and see the Buddha? Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en said while patting his chest.
Earthly Immortal Pei Shi En, if you want to be reborn in bliss as soon as possible and have flowers bloom and see the Buddha, you can only achieve it if you reincarnate as a human being and hold on to the name of the Buddha. A person's upper lifespan is only a hundred years, his middle lifespan is no more than seventy years old, and his lower lifespan is only a few decades. Compared with Shinto practice, which has a lifespan of thousands of years, it is much easier and takes much less time. The "Buddha Speaks of Amitabha Sutra" translated by Master Kumarajiva of Yao Qin states: All living beings in the Land of Ultimate Bliss are all descended from A-tao, and many of them have faults to make up for in their lifetimes. There are so many of them that it cannot be known by counting... ...It is to tell all living beings in the world that as long as they practice diligently, they can achieve success in a short life. The Bodhisattva's eloquent voice made the white clouds in the sky stop, as if the white clouds were also listening.
Bodhisattva, help me reincarnate as a human being! I am willing to give up the life span of thousands of years as an immortal, even if I only live for a few decades in the human world, I will not hesitate, because in a short life, I can achieve the achievements of Taoism. When he said this, Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en was so excited that he smiled broadly.
At this time, the Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en, who was looking at the sky, just blinked and everything changed. Guanshiyin Bodhisattva used his divine power to bring him into the Wheel-turning King's Hall in the underworld. He was still kneeling on the ground, but he was facing the Wheel-turning King sitting upright in the tent above the hall.
Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en, aren't you performing official duties in the Jinse City area in the Central Plains of the Eastern Land? Why did you come to this palace? Do you also want to be reincarnated? The Wheel King smiled mysteriously, obviously asking questions knowingly.
Your Majesty, the little immortal really wants to be reincarnated. Of course, he must follow his karma and not fall into the lower realms. Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en spoke in a low-key manner and looked respectful.
The Wheel-turning King raised his hand to signal him to stand up, and then praised him, saying, "You have done many meritorious deeds in the underworld and the human world. You should be reborn in the heavenly path among the three good paths and become a god. Why do you come to this temple?" Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en said that the Immortal prefers this temple and hopes to be reborn as a human being.
If it’s not good to be your earthly immortal, why would you want to be a human being? King Chakravartin asked.
There are advantages to being a human being. Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en replied.
Did you know that being a good person is far worse than being an earthly immortal? Why? If you are reincarnated as a human, you will lose all your magical powers, but now as an earthly immortal, you have vast magical powers. The Wheel King was teasing him like this to test whether he really wanted to be reincarnated as a human being.
It's great to have great supernatural powers, but it's difficult to practice them. The merit of doing a hundred good deeds by a person with supernatural powers is not as good as the merit of one good deed by a person without supernatural powers, because with supernatural powers everything is easy, but without supernatural powers everything is difficult. Difficulties sharpen one's mind. Your Majesty, Xiaoxian is very good at what he does and expresses his inner feelings. I hope you can correct me. Earth Immortal Pei Shi'en said while cupping his hands.
Well said! The only good way to reincarnate in this hall is the human way. There are three, six or nine levels of humanity, three religions and nine streams. It is up to you to choose what kind of reincarnation you want in this hall. The Wheel-turning King said, and ordered several secret servants to go to the palace treasury.
In a moment, several yinmen launched three colorful chariots filled with auspicious aura, and nine sections of shelves full of items. The colorful chariot contains the official robes and seals used by civil servants and generals, and the shelves display miscellaneous items of five elements and eight types. The former is noble and elegant, while the latter is smooth and ordinary.
