2014-11-24 Introduction to Buddhism
On the afternoon of September 13, 1955, Mr. Liao and his wife, the head of Alishan Wenshan Hotel, organized their business. When they were about to have supper, they suddenly felt a huge thing rushing into the back yard at the back door because it was dusk and couldn't see clearly what it was;Mr. Liao was startled and quickly put down his bowls and chopsticks, lit up the lights in the courtyard to see what happened. It turned out to be a sika deer, running around in the backyard nervously.It was strange that when the Sika Deer saw Mr. Liao and his wife, she knelt down, and her eyes were weeping, as if she was asking for help.The couple saw clearly that the deer was pregnant and had been stabbed next to the abdomen, and bleeding was constantly flowing. While the couple was discussing how to stop the bleeding for the deer, a young man from the mountain ran in from the front door to ask if he saw the deer. Only then did they know that the deer was shot by the young man.
Because he had decided to save the deer's life, the couple of them refused to hand over it, saying that they didn't see it, and the young man refused to give up. The mountain compatriots were addicted to alcohol, so they held a banquet to entertain the young man. When he was drunk, the couple took the opportunity to take two hundred yuan and put it in the hand of the young man and said, "You hunted this sika deer and should have been handed back to you, but it was pitiful because the deer was pregnant. If you returned it, you would catch it and sell it. We would buy it with meager money. Are you willing to sell it?"The young man thought to himself that after eating a sumptuous meal of wine and food, he gave another 200 yuan, which was not much less, so he agreed to the deal.After the mountain youth left, Mr. Liao invited a veterinarian to treat the deer and set up a shed in the backyard for the deer to rest, intending to send it back to the mountain when the deer's wounds heal.This incident quickly spread throughout the mountain, and some praised their kindness;Some people laughed at them as stupid as they actually spent so much energy on animals.No matter what others say, the couple always took care of the injured deer very carefully.The neighbors include Wu and Chen. They only know how to make money and take advantage of others all day long. They are lazy and idle people.When they learned about the Sika Deer, Wu said to Chen: "Is there anyone so stupid in the world?For a deer, I invited someone to have a meal and gave me another 200 yuan, and I also paid for a special amount of money to hire a veterinarian to treat it?If it were me, I wouldn't be so stupid!"Chen said: "If it were me, I would just sell it and I could make some money!I heard that venison is very nourishing and delicious, but Mr. Liao will put it back to the mountain as long as he waits for the deer wound to heal. We might as well wait behind the deer. As long as Mr. Liao puts the deer, we will catch the deer back as soon as possible?”The wound of the sika deer was quickly healed under the careful care of Mr. Liao and his wife. Mr. Liao opened the back door to send it back to the mountain, but the deer was reluctant to leave and frequently turned around to look at Mr. Liao and his wife.Unexpectedly, the couple was caught and killed by Wu and Chen hiding under the tree as soon as they left the deer. They were divided into half of each. Afterwards, they deliberately ran to Wenshan Hotel and told Mr. Liao proudly: "Yesterday we hunted a pregnant deer. The venison was very tender and delicious!"Mr. Liao and his wife were very sad and regretful when they heard this. They knew that what they were talking about was the deer they sent back to the mountain yesterday. If they had stayed at home for raising them, they would not have been killed.Over time, this incident has gradually been forgotten by people. Only Mr. Liao and his wife will often miss the cute and pitiful sika deer.One evening, Wu and Chen had just returned from gambling in the yard. Because they didn't sleep all night and the mountain road was difficult to walk. The two were so tired that they were resting under a tree next to the road. It happened that under this tree was the place where they killed deer before. Unexpectedly, when they had just sat down, lightning and thunderstorms suddenly broke out. They were glad that they were hiding quickly, but they knew that the thunder was coming and they cut off the tree fiercely, and they both were crushed to death by the tree.According to nearby villagers, this day is the anniversary of the deer being killed, so the villagers all believe that this is the consequence of evil retribution. The so-called "A family that accumulates good will have good fortune, and a family that accumulates evil will have good fortune."Mr. Liao's career has always been smooth because of his good deeds. Everyone who goes to Alishan likes to stay in their hotels. Not only does his business prosper, his family is also a happy one, and his children are filial. After growing up, he is now a person with status and reputation in society.
