Chapter 160 Gods and Buddhas
Zhu Huaizhen put his hands together and chanted: "Shakyamuni Buddha, Amitabha Buddha, Medicine Buddha, Dipamkara Buddha, Maitreya Buddha, Vairocana Buddha, Vairocana Buddha, Akshobhya Buddha, Ratnasambhava Buddha, Amoghasiddhi Buddha..."
Haha, she knows quite a lot of gods and Buddhas.
After saying that, Zhu Huaizhen picked up his chopsticks and ate with relish.
Wow, this goji berry sprout soup is really good.
The soup is sweet and the wolfberry sprouts are fresh and tender.
However, it is still too plain when paired with rice. I feel full after eating one bowl, and mainly my heart is full.
Well, I'd better just go to sleep. I can eat meat when I wake up tomorrow.
Zhu Huaizhen went upstairs, went to the guest room at the corner, and fell asleep.
Let’s burn incense and take a bath, or wait until tomorrow morning.
However, Zhu Huaizhen never expected that the morning in Nanchu would be just dawn.
Shariputra, form is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from form. Form is emptiness, emptiness is form. Likewise with feeling, perception, mental formations, and consciousness...
Zhu Huaizhen was awakened by this profound Buddhist teachings.
When I went downstairs, I saw that the tables and chairs had been moved to the edge and everyone was sitting on the floor meditating.
Most of them are from Southern Chu, but there are also curious foreigners participating.
Zhu Huaizhen rubbed his sleepy eyes and yawned repeatedly.
"Zhen'er, do you want to sleep a little longer?" Lou Li was a light sleeper and came out when he heard the noise.
"Ali, I can't sleep. When will breakfast be served?" Zhu Huaizhen touched his shriveled stomach.
"Zhen'er, I heard that people in Nanchu have morning prayers on the 16th day of every month and don't have meals." Lou Li sighed.
After hearing this, Zhu Huaizhen felt like crying but had no tears.
Are these gods and Buddhas here to save people, or are they specifically designed to deceive people?
So Zhu Huaizhen resigned himself to his fate and went back to sleep.
I tossed and turned, wanting to sleep but unable to.
Zhu Huaizhen attributed this feeling to not having enough meat to eat.
The suffering lasted until lunch time, when Zhu Huaizhen ordered a table full of meat and vegetables, not caring about the money.
Oh, Dongpo elbow, lotus chicken, steamed pork with rice flour, roasted tendon, drunken spareribs, pickled fish, hugged carp, fried shrimp balls, fried fish fillet, grilled venison... these are what she was talking about yesterday.
Wow, there’s also Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
Sugar-heart abalone, pineapple sea cucumber, white shark lips, young deer tendons, claw meat, golden shark fin, ivory clam meat, spider fish glue, quail eggs, ham, pork ribs, clean winter bamboo shoots, king oyster mushrooms, chrysanthemum mushrooms, wild pine mushrooms, morels, snow bamboo fungus, Shaoxing wine, eighteen ingredients, eighteen delicious flavors. The moment you lift the lotus leaf covering the jar, the rich meaty aroma is so fragrant that even a Buddha would jump over the wall.
Zhu Huaizhen ate three big bowls of white rice as if he was taking revenge on someone.
Lou Li tried to persuade him again and again, but to no avail.
As a result, Zhu Huaizhen had indigestion and rolled around in pain on the bed.
Lou Li used his internal energy to help Zhu Huaizhen feel better, but it was only a temporary solution and not a cure.
Finally, Tu Mi went to find a doctor nearby.
That doctor looked unreliable and actually used a red thread to take the pulse.
Then, the doctor gave Lou Li a box of spices, meaning that he just needed to burn incense.
Lou Li suppressed his anger at the time and did not throw the doctor out of the second-floor window.
"The evil-repelling incense might be useful." Tu Mi said in a deep voice.
The ingredients of this exorcist incense are agarwood, cloves, amomum villosum, perilla, musk, bletilla striata, and camphor. First, clean the agarwood and soak it in a musk solution for a day and a night. Remove the agarwood and dry it in the shade. Grind it into a fine powder and set aside. Next, grind the cloves, amomum villosum, perilla, and an appropriate amount of camphor into a fine powder and set aside. Next, grind the bletilla striata to extract the sticky juice and mix it with the two incense powders to make two different incense pills. Finally, place the agarwood powder incense pill on top and the mixed incense pills made with cloves, amomum villosum, perilla, and camphor below, and press them into a fragrant cake.
As far as Zhu Huaizhen knows, evil-repelling incense is often used to treat plague.
However, when the exorcising incense was half burned, Zhu Huaizhen felt that his stomach was no longer bloated and he felt calm.
