Chapter 4167: Cleaning the Buddhist Temple (Part 2)
Even Wan Qingya, who was holding a plastic broom, deliberately exchanged a branch broom with her mother, and cleaned it happily.
Li Yun smiled and said: "After all, rural children, this kind of thing still can't trouble me."
"Your country?" Concubine Wan Qing used the branch broom he made to sweep the tower up the stairs, teasing: "How do I remember you are a country child?"
"Countries in the countryside are also rural, almost."
In fact, branch brooms are very common, but most of them are made of tough bamboo leaves. Now many sanitation workers in cities use this broom. It is light and easy to use. It is big enough and can be cleaned very quickly. Large range.
Everyone cleaned up the tower along the stairs. To their surprise, there was still a half-sized Buddha statue on the first floor. Wan Qingya approached and worshiped very well, regardless of the etiquette, just worship.
Wan Nishang felt distressed for her two daughters and took the initiative to take the job of pulling the dense vines in the tower. However, Concubine Wan Qing also felt distressed for her master and sister, so she just snatched them. In the end, Li Yun personally broke the vines and asked them to help her .
As for Wan Qingya, she obediently opened the way in front and cleared her way first.
"Tell you about the legend of Buddha enlightening Bodhi."
In order to pass the boring work time, Li Yun continued to talk about the previous myths and legends, also called historical stories.
"Okay!" Wan Qingya was the first to respond, but she didn't stop her work. She kept cleaning the pagoda. Her whole body became dirty, but Li Yun didn't tell her to stop or let her rest. So she kept cleaning.
Li Yun said: "It was said that Sakyamuni went out of the palace. After seeing the suffering of birth, old age, sickness and death, he decided to become a monk. After six years of penance, he finally found that penance could not solve the confusion in his heart, so he came here. ."
"here?!"
The three women asked at the same time.
"Yes, this is the place called Bodh Gaya in ancient times."
Li Yun looked out from the window on the first floor of the ancient pagoda, "Maybe it is around the pagoda, or maybe not far away. In short, the Buddha sat under the Bodhi tree and vowed:'If you don't get enlightenment, don't leave this seat. ', it is said that the Buddha's cultivation base was already very high at that time. The Four Heavenly Demon King Bo Xun was afraid that Sakyamuni would gain the Tao, so he led the demon army to interfere, but he could not get close to the Buddha's body. The golden body has the Four Noble Truths, Eightfold Path, Twelve Dependent Origination, Thirty-Seven Taoism, etc.
Wan Qingya was thoughtful, but Wan Nishang disagreed, and objected: "Didn't you say that the four demon kings are invisible and innocent, and have no thinking ability? How does this demon king Bo Xun lead the demon army? Come to interfere? The typical inconsistency!"
Li Yun shrugged: "So I said it was a myth. Xiao Su said the Four Heavenly Demon King. It is invisible and innocent... Maybe," Li Yun looked at Wan Qingya, "The devil who tried to interfere with the Buddha's enlightenment. Bo Xun is also a person affected by the demon."
Just like Wan Qingya.
"Just like me?!"
Wan Qingya looked over curiously, but she was not too scared. After all... there were many reasons. First, she didn't know if she was a demon, and secondly, there was Li Yun by her side.
"perhaps."
Li Yun did not entangle this topic, and continued: "Actually, there is a more mortal legend that Shakyamuni practiced hard for many years and then meditated under the Bodhi tree for a day. He was dizzy with hunger."
