Liangzhou is located to the south of Quzhou. It has many mountains and hills, crisscrossed rivers and dense water networks.
Shi Yan drove the carriage out of Quyang City and went south along the official road. The road became more and more difficult as the road was bumpy and bumpy, but Liang Xingyang just sat in the carriage and refused to fly with his sword.
He was going to find his mother and see if he could pick her up.
After he escaped from the earth and ascended, he came to this world and was born in Liang Weixian's family in Liangzhou Prefecture.
The ancestors of the Liang family served as officials for nine generations and accumulated tens of millions of possessions. Liang Weixian was a second-ranked Jinshi, and his journey went smoothly to become a doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Liang Xingyang was born in such a family. He grew up in fine clothes and fine food, and lived a more luxurious life than the princes of the surrounding small countries.
Unexpectedly, when he was five years old, Liang Weixian was transferred to the prefect of Zhezhou. He encountered robbers on the road and died in a foreign country.
His mother, Sun Jiyao, was a devout believer in the Golden Lantern Sect. She believed that her husband had enjoyed too much in the past and had exhausted all his blessings before he died miserably. She also believed that the terrible end of the world was coming and that she had to donate all her family property to avoid disaster and gain blessings. So in a short time In just half a year, all the family’s properties, real estate, shops, manors, tea mountains and other assets accumulated over generations were donated to the Golden Lantern Sect!
Upon seeing this, Liang Weigang, the patriarch of the Liang family, quickly took people to find the prefect and wanted the fields and shops back. As a result, within a few months, Sun Jiyao donated them all again. This time, he was more ruthless and destroyed the Liang family. Wujin's big house was also donated, just like what is sung in "The Redemption Song of the Doomsday Golden Lantern": "Stop the family, get rid of the rope of work, and worship the golden lantern cleanly."
Liang Weigang went to the magistrate again to file a lawsuit. This time, the magistrate and his wife also converted to the Golden Lantern Sect. They sentenced the Liang family to blackmail. Taking into account the face of the head of the Liang family, he was not punished. The two nephews who brought him were each punished. He was rewarded with forty big boards, beaten half to death, and thrown out!
Sun Jiyao donated all her family property in accordance with the teachings, dedicated herself to the light, and accepted the Golden Lantern Sect to arrange the rest of her life.
The two mothers followed Master Jindeng to leave Liangzhou Fucheng and settled in Xiaoqingshan more than a hundred miles away. All the people who donated their wealth were arranged to live here. They built their own wooden houses, grew their own vegetables and ate their own food. It was called: Stay Away from Right and Wrong , purify the soul!
Sun Jiyao donated enough family property, and she was an orphan and a widower. The Golden Lantern Sect did not let her build a house by herself, but directly chose an old bachelor in his forties for her to marry.
She didn’t complain at all. This was the master’s arrangement, and it must be the road to the light. Even if there were some bumps on the road, they were caused by the original sin carried in her nature. As long as she devoted herself to practice, she would reach her final destination. It must be a paradise filled with light and love!
The old bachelor's name is Su Zhenchang, nicknamed "Lao Ram". He lives in a shabby little courtyard with garbage everywhere. He has a bald and oily head, a hoarse voice when he speaks, and a very bad temper. .
He turned out to be a gangster in Liangzhou City, doing nothing all day long. As soon as the Golden Lantern Sect came, he joined the sect and was established as a typical example of preferential treatment. Even such a person can get good benefits after joining the sect, and others are more willing to join.
Since Sun Jiyao came in, Lao Mang has asked her to work. The yard in front has to be cleaned, and the garden in the back has to be planted to grow vegetables. In addition to three meals a day, washing and sweeping, she also has to raise chickens and ducks to make food for him. This guy was addicted to alcohol and was lazy to eat. He asked Sun Jiyao to go to the mountains to collect mountain goods and carry them to the city to sell for money. Then he bought wine for him to drink. After drinking enough, he fell asleep and fell asleep. Otherwise, he would punch and hit him. He kicked his feet.
Liang Xingyang was brought by Sun Jiyao, and naturally he worked with his mother since he was a child. If Lao Yang didn't get his way, he would beat him to vent his anger. He endured it again and again, and finally ran out of the house last summer and wandered north, until he arrived at the Huangting River, where General Xian Jian After being refined, he is now returning home to take his mother away. If the old gangster dares to stop her, he will kill her with one sword in retaliation for the torture he has suffered over the years!
In fact, he was not sure whether he could successfully pick up his mother. Sun Jiyao believed deeply in the Golden Lantern Sect and was brainwashed very thoroughly. Lao Mang was pointed out to her by her master, so it must be right.
According to the teachings, she had enjoyed too many blessings in the Liang Mansion in the past, and what she was experiencing now, whether it was hard work, hardship, or being beaten to a bloody head, was all about repaying debts. The harder she was beaten and the harder she was beaten, the harder it was for her. The more beneficial the practice is, it is equivalent to accelerating the repayment of debts.
The master said that when she pays off all her "debts", Lao Mang will wake up and become a harmonious and beautiful couple with her. The two of them will eliminate their bad karma at the same time, and work hand in hand to make everything brighter!
Therefore, no matter how Lao Mang abused her or beat her, she never complained. Instead, she was happy when she beat her own son violently. She kept giving lectures and encouragement to Liang Xingyang, saying that this was a good thing to eliminate his karma. , every time a beating is taken, the body becomes a little cleaner. The more fierce the beating, the more thorough the cleansing. When all the karma is eliminated in the future, the soul will be completely clean, as bright and pure as glass, and then it will ascend to the paradise world full of light.
Of course, in the process of being beaten to repay the debt, you must try hard not to be beaten to death. If you are beaten to death, it proves that the "debt" is too much. If you have not paid it off in this life, you will become a pig, dog, cow, and horse in the next life, and sink into a beast. You need the guidance of the Golden Lamp Master, and you need to die one more time to be a new person, and then continue to "pay off the debt". Therefore, Golden Lantern believers cannot commit suicide. No matter how hard they are beaten, they must work hard to live!
Liang Xingyang had already made up his mind. If his mother could not bear the torture and was willing to leave with him, he would take her away and go to the north. Whether it was finding a town to settle down or building a cave in the mountains, he could do it and support his mother. It will not be a problem for him to take care of himself for the rest of his life.
If his mother disagrees and continues to be addicted to the Golden Lantern Sect and has to eliminate her karma and pay off her debts here, he will not take her away by force. He will kill the Golden Lantern Sect first and drain the firepower! Although there are many masters in the Golden Lantern Sect, they can kill as many as they can. Those masters who made her believe that wisdom is boundless and omnipotent also use their lives to "pay off the debt", and then ask her about her intentions!
The carriage did not enter Liangzhou Fucheng, but detoured to the west of the city and went straight to Xiaoqingshan.
Xiaoqingshan has a humid climate, dense vegetation, shrouded in mist all year round, and green vegetation, which is indeed very suitable for "purifying the soul."
When Liang Xingyang left, there were only about a hundred or so households on the hillside. A year later, there are now seven or eight hundred households, spreading from the slope to the river. The houses are all the simplest wooden houses, all decorated with golden lanterns. The layout of the front yard and back garden defined by the teacher.
The carriage went up the hillside and stopped at the entrance of a small courtyard.
Liang Xingyang jumped off the platform and looked into the yard, his heart suddenly tightened.
The yard is very dilapidated. A piece of the west fence has collapsed. It is covered with thorny kudzu vines. The whole yard is filled with dense wormwood. Some have grown to more than two meters high. There are bunches of fine purple flowers blooming, swaying in the wind. There is a trodden path that leads from the gate to the front of the house.
