Chapter 1146 Attracting God
Feeling cheated, Wei Tuo was very angry and went directly to the outsider for comment.
As a result, he was kicked out by the servants outside the staff, and he didn't get a penny of silver.
On the way home, I met Lu Dongbin, one of the Eight Immortals.
Lu Dongbin just came back from a trip and saw Guanyin Bodhisattva raising money to build a bridge for the people with his body, so he came down to play a joke on Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Seeing that Wei Tuo was walking home sullenly, he stopped him and said:
"Have you seen that woman on the river bank? She is also raising money for the construction of the bridge. You and her have the same idea. You also have money with you. Why don't you go to raise money? Maybe you can marry a beautiful woman." wife."
Wei Tuo said: "It's fine to marry a wife. I have sworn before the Buddha that if the bridge cannot be built, I will not marry a wife in this life. If this woman can really help raise money to build the bridge, I will be grateful."
Lv Dongbin took Wei Tuo to the riverside and asked Wei Tuo to throw silver taels.
Wei Tuo threw out the silver and said, "I just want to raise money to build a bridge, and I have no intention of marrying a wife."
Lu Dongbin pointed with his finger, and Wei Tuo's silver just hit Guanyin Bodhisattva.
The gentry on the shore sighed very much.
Lu Dongbin brought Wei Tuo to Avalokitesvara.
As soon as Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva saw Wei Tuo, he said: "Lu Dongbin and I played a prank but let me see the former Yin brother."
Then he said to Lu Dongbin: "Chunyangzi, you know that Buddhists can't get married, but you joked with me like this."
But Lu Dongbin smiled and said, "I'm sorry! Who told you not to show the body of a Bodhisattva! Then he said to the boatman and Wei Tuo, do you know who she is? She is Guanshiyin Bodhisattva."
Everyone was stunned!
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva showed his real body and said to the gentry on the shore: "I ask you to take silver taels to build the bridge. This is for you to accumulate merit and virtue, and you will get retribution in the future. I hope you can do more good deeds in the future. Afterwards, to the county The grandfather said: "As a parent officer, you don't want to benefit the people. You want to overturn my ship. If you can change your mind and become a good parent officer, I will let you go. Otherwise, you will take off your black hat and sit in a prison cage."
The county magistrate was so frightened that he quickly promised Guanyin Bodhisattva that he must be a good parent official in the future to benefit the people.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said to the boatman: "You have contributed a lot to the money raised today. I will give you a son to help Wei Tuo build the bridge."
The boatman shouted happily to the sky, my old man has seen Guanyin Bodhisattva!
Guanshiyin Bodhisattva turned around and said to Wei Tuo: "Bodhisattva speaks with dignity, I promise you."
Before Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva finished speaking, Wei Tuo said: "Bodhisattva, don't be embarrassed. I have no intention of getting married. I just want to build a bridge for the people."
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva replied: "After you build the bridge, what I said will be fulfilled, and then I will come to see you."
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva left with Lu Dongbin after speaking.
A few days later, Wei Tuo led the villagers to rush to work day and night, and finally built the bridge.
After Wei Tuo finished building the bridge, he collapsed under the bridge from exhaustion.
At this time, Guanyin Bodhisattva appeared in the air, and the boatman shouted: "Avalokitesvara, Wei Tuo is exhausted, come and save him!"
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva brought Wei Tuo to the purple bamboo forest in Mount Putuo, South China Sea.
When Longnu and Shancai saw Wei Tuo, they shouted: "Brother Yin, you don't know us anymore. This is Miaoshan, who grew up with you."
Wei Tuo stood there in a daze.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said: "Brother Yin has now reincarnated in Wei Tuo, how can he remember the past."
Avalokitesvara gave Wei Tuo mana to remind him of his previous life. After Wei Tuo woke up, he called Miao Shan.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said: "That's a matter of the human world, so don't mention it again, so I told Wei Tuo that the Buddha named you a Dharma protector, and you will guard here from now on."
Wei Tuo asked where the parents of the previous life were? Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said: "They have all cultivated to the right fruit and are in the heavenly realm. We will meet each other soon."
Since then, Wei Tuo has been a Dharma protector in the heavens, and there are also statues of Wei Tuo in every major monastery. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva saves all living beings everywhere, saving suffering and suffering. To this day, people still worship this great compassionate Guanshiyin Bodhisattva who is the great inspiration for saving suffering and suffering. The story of Guanshiyin Bodhisattva has been passed down through the ages and is well known.
Venerable Kasyapa finished telling the story to the audience in the live broadcast room, in order to tell everyone that the son-in-law who was obsessed with Princess Miaoshan back then has become the Dharma protector of the heavens.
It is precisely this matter that Eating Melons keeps fighting with Guanyin Bodhisattva, aiming to expose the hypocrisy of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Unexpectedly, the Bodhisattva has already enlightened people who refused to reincarnate into gods.
No one had thought of this, and they were suddenly speechless.
They all want to see what they will say if they don't stop eating melons.
Venerable Kassapa saw that the effect was good, and immediately released a poem praising the Bodhisattva:
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is wonderful and difficult to repay, pure and solemn, and has been cultivated for many kalpas. In the dusty temple of the thirty-two circles, he has transformed into Jambudha for hundreds of thousands of kalpas.
The nectar in the bottle is often sprinkled everywhere, and the poplar branches in the hands don't count the autumn. Thousands of places pray for thousands of places, and the sea of bitterness is often used as a boat to cross people.
What he did was really good, the situation where the group attacked suddenly turned into a nod of praise.
Venerable Kassapa strikes while the iron is hot, and sends out another post:
According to legend, a long time ago, there was an ancient ferry in a barren village named "Wan'an Ferry".
The water here is deep and the waves are turbulent. Every time a strong wind hits the passing ships, their masts will be overturned.
It turns out that this is the river monster and water monster making waves.
When Emperor Zhenwu became an immortal, he took out his intestines and threw them into the Luoyang River. Unexpectedly, over time, these intestines turned into turtle spirits and basilisk monsters, often stirring up waves in the Luoyang River.
One day, when the ferry was approaching the middle of the river from the shore, suddenly two monsters, a turtle and a snake, emerged from the water. Suddenly, the wind howled and the turbid waves emptied, and the small ferry was in danger of being swallowed.
Suddenly, repeated shouts came from the air: "Master Cai crossing the river, don't be rude!"
Hearing the sound, the tortoise and snake fled in a hurry.
All of a sudden, the weather was calm and the ferry arrived safely.
The passengers were very surprised, not knowing who "Lord Cai" is.
There was a pregnant woman in Putian, whose husband was named Cai. She thought that the child she would give birth to in the future would be an extraordinary person, so she secretly made a wish: If the child can become a tool in the future, she will teach him to build a bridge on the Luoyang River.
After the woman returned to her hometown, she gave birth to a boy named Cai Shouchang, named Junmo, nicknamed Duan, who was very intelligent and intelligent.
When Cai Shouchang grew up and became sensible, Cai's mother told him about the experience of crossing the river when he was in danger, and urged her son to realize her long-cherished wish of building a bridge.
Shouchang Cai silently kept his mother's instructions in mind.
Soon, the imperial court began to recruit scholars. Cai Shouchang was selected as an official in the imperial court due to his extensive talents and knowledge, and was highly regarded by the emperor.
He was thinking about his mother's long-cherished wish, but he also felt distressed: If he stays in the capital all the time, when will he have the opportunity to go to Quanzhou to build the Luoyang Bridge?
