During the Daoguang years, there was a scholar surnamed Lü who missed his head because he was out to visit relatives, and he lived in a deserted temple in Huaiyin County that night. That night, Lu Sheng was sleeping sweetly, and suddenly the wind suddenly blew up and thunderstorms were mixed. As he opened his eyes to look out, a woman in red suddenly ran outside the temple. The woman was breathless, saw Lu Sheng, hurried to the front, and shouted loudly. Lü Sheng was shocked to ask why, and the woman in red said that there was a monster outside the temple who wanted to catch her and worship the evil god. Lu Sheng winced slightly, and immediately laughed. He thought that the woman in red must have been so frightened by the lightning that she had lost her soul and talked nonsense. At this time, a person strode in outside the door. But I saw this man with red hair and black face, a pair of fangs protruding from his lips, and two eyes like lanterns, shining in the night. When he entered the door, he asked Lu Sheng who he was. When Lü Sheng saw his appearance, he was immediately frightened and trembled all around, and he could not speak. When the strange man saw that Lü Sheng was terrified, he ignored him and went straight to the woman in red, stretched out his fan-like palm, and was about to pull her up from the ground. At this opportunity, A flash of thunder suddenly occurred, and the Buddha statue in the temple suddenly emitted a golden light. Immediately after, a faint sound of Sanskrit chanting came from the mouth of the Buddha statue. The strange man was stunned, and Lü Sheng could hear the sound of Brahma singing in his ears, and couldn't help but urgently recite "Amitabha Buddha" urgently. The woman in red saw the situation and, like Lü Sheng, quickly recited the Buddha number. The strange man laughed and said: Fang is in chaos today, even if the Buddha has a heart, he is afraid that he will not be able to take care of these many trivial things in the world! When he reached the point of pride, he leisurely crossed his hands around his waist, as if he wanted to see if the two could really ask for the Buddha's protection. After a moment, Lu Sheng and the woman in red stopped pleading. The two of them glanced at each other and closed their eyes in despair. The strange man said lightly, Now even if you are dead, you should be blind. After he said these words, he said to Lü Sheng, "Never believe in The Buddha again in the next life," and immediately reached out his arm and pulled him up. Then, he opened his mouth and bit into Lu Sheng's neck. At this critical juncture of life and death, Lu Sheng's body suddenly burst into a golden light. The golden light soared, covering the entire temple in an instant. The strange man's eyes were shot by the golden light, and Dengshi cried out loudly. Only to hear him shout", "Buddha spare his life", then the body began to melt, until his body disappeared, and Lu Sheng returned to God. At this time, the two of you, you look at me, I look at you, I don't understand what just happened. The woman in red asked Lu Sheng, how did Fang Cai feel? Lü Sheng said that I just felt a huge golden palm in the air, holding me in the palm of my hand; and then another palm, on the strange man, gently caressed it, and with each stroke, the strange man's body disappeared a little. When the strange man disappeared, the two palms disappeared. The woman in red listened, stunned for half a day, and said to Lu Sheng with a happy smile: It must be the Buddha Mother, it must be the Buddha Mother! Lü Sheng asked her which Buddha mother was? The woman in red said triumphantly that the Buddha Mother was the leader of the White Lotus Sect, Tang Sai'er. When Lü Sheng heard Tang Sai'er's name, he was immediately frightened and broke out in cold sweat, and asked who the woman in red was. The woman in red sighed and said that she was a bodhisattva in red under the "Mother Buddha". Due to the defeat of Tang Sai'er's soldiers in recent years, the imperial court is tracking down her whereabouts, and the Red Flower Sect, which has always been at odds with the White Lotus Sect, took the opportunity to fish in muddy waters and wanted to catch Tang Sai'er. Therefore, the demons of the Red Flower Sect cast spells to drive all kinds of Yin soldiers and demons to arrest the disciples of the White Lotus Sect in various places. Lü Sheng listened carefully to the woman in red's story, and he did not feel that the sky was already light. The woman in red expressed her gratitude to him and stepped out of the temple door. Lü Sheng originally wanted to catch up with her and ask her more about the White Lotus Sect. But when he got to the door, the woman in red was long gone. This incident was later recorded by Lü Sheng in a miscellaneous record called "Zhenjiang Record", and later lost it to lü Sheng's descendants due to the scourge of war, and eventually lost it to where it was.
