Story: The hard-working woman refused to accept the verdict after her death
In a distant and mysterious eastern country, surrounded by mountains and shrouded in mist. In this land, there are many magical legends about Maoshan art. Maoshan Taoist priests practice mystical Taoism, exorcise evil spirits, and protect the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Among the many legends, one story is particularly fascinating, about a hard-working woman who refused to accept the verdict after her death, and finally uncovered a mystery of cause and effect in her past life.
This woman's name is Wan'er, she was born like a flower, smart and clever, but she had a bad fate. Since she was a child, her family was poor, her parents died early, she was lonely and bullied. However, Wan'er has a tough personality and never bows to fate. She toiled hard during the day and read at night, eager to change her destiny through knowledge.
Time flies, Wan'er grows up, and her beauty and wisdom have attracted countless suitors. However, she has only one thought in her heart: to find true love and spend the rest of her life together. Finally one day, she met a gentle scholar, and the two fell in love at first sight and made a private decision for life.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and Wan'er's happy time was like a flash in the pan. The scholar died suddenly, leaving Wan'er alone to face the warmth and coldness of the world. Wan'er, who lost her lover, was like ashes, and she washed her face with tears all day long. Her grief attracts the attention of evil spirits, and an evil spirit takes advantage of the opportunity to possess her and pushes her into the endless abyss.
After Wan'er's death, her soul was taken to the Netherworld. The king of Hades looked through the book of life and death and judged that she was suffering in this life because of the sins of her past life. Wan'er was filled with grief and indignation when she heard this, and she protested loudly: "I have never done evil in my life, why should I be so unjustly punished after death?"
Hades sneered and said, "Do you know what you did in your previous life? You were a noble concubine in the palace in your previous life, and because of jealousy, you framed Zhongliang, causing turmoil in the country. Your sins are too numerous to mention, and the suffering you have suffered in this life is nothing but karma. ”
Wan'er was struck by lightning when she heard this, and then she realized the crimes she had committed in her previous life. She felt remorseful in her heart, but she was still unwilling to accept such a fate. She knelt in front of Hades and pleaded with tears streaming down her face: "I know I was wrong in my previous life, but I have tasted enough suffering in this life, so don't I have a glimmer of life?"
Hades pondered for a moment and said, "If you are truly repentant and willing to change your mind and become a new person, it is not impossible. You can go to Maoshan Mountain, find a Maoshan Taoist priest with profound Taoism, and ask him for help. If he can help you exorcise evil spirits and purify your heart, you may still have a chance of life. ”
Wan'er was hopeful after hearing this, she kowtowed to the king of Hades to thank her, and then turned into a wisp of green smoke and drifted to Maoshan in the distance.
Above Maoshan Mountain, the clouds and mist are shrouded, and the fairy spirit is fluttering. Wan'er wandered in the mountains for many days, and finally found a Maoshan Taoist priest with profound Taoism - Qingyun Daochang. Qingyun Dao Chang saw that Wan'er's soul was not gone, and knew that there must be a secret in it. He closed his eyes and pinched his fingers, and knew what happened to Wan'er in her past and present life.
Qingyun Dao Chang said to Wan'er: "You have sins in your previous life, and you are haunted by evil spirits in this life, and it is indeed difficult to get rid of it. But if you are truly repentant, I may be able to help you. ”
Wan'er was grateful when she heard this, she kowtowed again and again: "The Taoist is merciful, if you can help me get out of the sea of suffering, Wan'er is willing to pray for the Taoist for the rest of her life." ”
Qingyun Dao Commander nodded and said, "You are possessed by this lantern and follow me to exorcise evil spirits and demons." ”
Wan'er possessed the lantern according to her words, and embarked on the road of exorcism with the Qingyun Dao Chief. They trekked through mountains and rivers and went through hardships and dangers, and finally found the evil ghost that possessed Wan'er. The Qingyun Daoist performed the Maoshan Dao method and started a fierce battle with the evil ghosts. After some fighting, the demon was finally subdued by the Qingyun Dao Chief.
After the demon was exorcized, Wan'er felt a sense of relief. She thanked the Qingyun Daoist and asked herself what she could do next to clear her sin. Daoist Qingyun told her, "You need to repent sincerely, do more good deeds, and accumulate merits. Only in this way can your sins be gradually lightened. ”
Wan'er thought so much after hearing this, she decided to be a new person after reincarnation, and use her actions to make up for the mistakes of her previous life. Under the guidance of Daoist Qingyun, she gradually learned how to do good deeds and how to help others. Her soul was purified, and the sins of her previous life were lightened little by little.
Finally, one day, Wan'er's soul was sublimated. She turned into a golden light and disappeared into the sky. And her kindness and repentance also touched the gods of heaven and earth, and she was finally able to get rid of her suffering and live a happy life in her next life.
This fantasy folk tale spread among the people, and Wan'er's experience became a profound warning: the cause of the past life, the result of this life, the retribution of good and evil, and the cycle of cause and effect. People should cherish the present moment, do more good deeds, accumulate merits, and at the same time, bravely face their own mistakes and shortcomings, and strive to correct and make up for them. Only in this way can we go wider and brighter on the road of life.
The years have passed, and the legend of Wan'er has spread widely in the Maoshan area, and has become a good story to warn future generations. And Qingyun Daoist has also won the respect and love of the people because of his profound Taoism and compassion.
However, things in the world are always unpredictable and unpredictable. Just when Wan'er's story gradually faded out of people's sight, another bizarre thing happened on Maoshan Mountain.
One day, Daoist Qingyun was in retreat and cultivating, when he suddenly heard a cry for help from the bottom of the mountain. He hurriedly went out to check, only to see a group of villagers running in a panic, claiming that a fierce demon beast had appeared in the mountain and had injured many innocent people.
When Qingyun Dao Chang heard this, he was shocked. He knew that although there was aura in the land of Maoshan, there were also occasional evil things lurking. He immediately gathered his disciples and prepared to go to the mountains to subdue demons and eliminate demons.
At this moment, a familiar figure floated in. Wan'er, the woman who once lived a hard life, has now been reincarnated and returned to Maoshan again. She told Daoist Qingyun that this demon beast was the result of the sins she had committed in her previous life, and now that it had come to seek revenge, she had to end this cause and effect herself.
Daoist Qingyun looked at Wan'er's determined eyes and knew that she was no longer the hard-working woman, but a cultivator with good intentions and the courage to take responsibility. He nodded in agreement and went to the mountains with Wan'er to subdue the demons.
After a fierce battle, Wan'er and Qingyun Dao Chang finally subdued the demon beast. When the demon beast was dying, Wan'er said to it: "In my previous life, I framed Zhongliang out of jealousy, causing you to suffer. Although I have changed my mind in this life, this sin must be brought to an end after all. Now that you and I have karma, may you have a good end in the next life. ”
After speaking, Wan'er closed her eyes and recited a spell, resolving her cultivation and the resentment of the demon beast together. Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged in the mountains, and thunder and lightning were combined. When the wind and rain stopped, everything was calm. The corpse of the demon beast turned into a puff of green smoke and dissipated into the air, and Wan'er also felt that the burden in her heart was finally lifted.
Daoist Qingyun looked at Wan'er, his eyes full of relief. He knew that Wan'er had truly stepped out of the shadow of her previous life and become a true cultivator. He stepped forward and patted Wan'er on the shoulder and said, "You've done a good job." Let's continue to work hard in the future. ”
Wan'er nodded yes, she thanked Daoist Qingyun for his guidance and help, and decided to continue to practice in Maoshan and use her own strength to protect the peace of this land and the people.
Since then, Wan'er and Qingyun Daoist have practiced and preached together in Maoshan Mountain, and their good deeds and cultivation have also spread all over the world. People have come to Maoshan to seek Taoism and apprenticeship, hoping to embark on the path of cultivation under their guidance.
And Wan'er's story has also become a legendary story in Maoshan that has been passed down through the ages. It tells people that no matter what sins they committed in their previous lives, as long as they sincerely repent and practice hard, they will eventually be able to cleanse their hearts and regain their lives. And the cycle of cause and effect, good and evil are rewarded, and it is the unchanging truth of the world.
Wan'er and Qingyun Dao Chang practiced together in Maoshan Mountain, and as the years passed, their reputation became more and more famous. On Maoshan Mountain, the incense is flourishing, and there is an endless stream of seekers. And Wan'er, with her firm belief and unremitting efforts, the Tao is becoming more and more sophisticated, and her soul has been truly sublimated.
One day, while she was in retreat, Wan'er suddenly felt a strong surge of qi. When she opened her eyes, she saw a distant sky, surrounded by auspicious clouds, as if a vision had occurred. Wan'er's heart moved, knowing that this was a sign of auspiciousness from the sky, she hurriedly went out of the customs and informed Qingyun Daoist of the matter.
When Daoist Qingyun heard this, he was also very surprised. He pinched his fingers and counted them, and his face showed joy: "This is the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, the appearance of karma." It seems that our Maoshan is about to usher in a big opportunity. ”
The two discussed it and decided to go to the auspicious land to find out. They trekked through the mountains and forests for several days, and finally came to a mysterious valley. I saw that in the valley, the aura was compelling, and a huge spirit tree stood in it, and the tree was full of crystal clear fruits.
Wan'er and Qingyun Dao Chang glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes. This spirit tree fruit is a rare spiritual object in heaven and earth, and after taking it, it can be greatly increased and cultivated, and it is even possible to get a glimpse of the secret of the Heavenly Dao.
However, just as the two were about to pick the fruit, a sudden gust of wind blew, and a fierce demon beast rushed out from the depths of the valley and rushed straight at the two. Seeing this, Wan'er and Qingyun Dao Chang immediately cast their Dao methods and started a fierce battle with the demon beasts.
After a thrilling battle, Wan'er and Qingyun Dao Chang finally subdued the demon beast. They discovered that this demon beast was not an ordinary thing, but a spirit beast that guarded the spirit tree. Although the spirit beast was subdued, there was a pleading look in its eyes.
Wan'er felt pity, she stepped forward and stroked the head of the spirit beast, and said softly: "You have merit in guarding the spirit tree, we will not harm you." But this Spirit Tree Fruit is a gift from Heaven, and we can't give it up easily. Would you like to share this opportunity with us?"
When the spirit beast heard this, a trace of gratitude flashed in its eyes. It nodded, in agreement. So, Wan'er and Qingyun Dao Chang, under the protection of the spirit beast, picked the fruit of the spirit tree and formed a deep friendship with it.
After returning to Maoshan, Wan'er and Qingyun Dao Chang distributed the Spirit Tree Fruit to their disciples and seekers. The cultivation of the people has increased greatly, and the Maoshan faction is even more prosperous. And Wan'er also broke through the bottleneck of cultivation and reached a new realm because of this opportunity.
After that, Wan'er continued to devote herself to cultivation, and her good deeds and cultivation also touched the gods of heaven and earth. During a retreat, she received guidance from the gods and comprehended a higher level of Taoism. Her soul was further purified and sublimated, and the sins of her previous life were completely cleansed.
In the end, Wan'er achieved positive results and soared to the fairy world. Her deeds are passed down as a good story in Maoshan and have become a model for future generations to practice. And her experience also tells people: no matter in the past or present life, as long as you are sincere and kind, and practice hard, you can get the favor and protection of the Heavenly Dao.
In this fantasy-filled oriental country, Wan'er's story has been passed down through the ages, inspiring countless practitioners to forge ahead and pursue the truth. And Maoshan is also famous all over the world because of the existence of Wan'er and Qingyun Dao Chang, and has become a holy place in the hearts of cultivators.
