Chapter 585: The Great Debate
"Obviously, the stone door can only be opened if you choose the right stone ball and put it in the center hole. Yu Yao opened his mouth.
"That's right. However, there is a Buddha and a Tao, and this place is originally strange; although it is now the mechanism pattern of the five elements and the nine palaces, it is really ยทยทยทยทยทยท for the five elements to choose one of the middle palaces."
Before, Yu Yao had cracked the copper box left by He Yidi, which was also a nine-palace pattern.
However, it was to put nine small balls of different materials into the nine palaces and nine holes, although it was also quite difficult, but there were still traces to follow, and at the same time, Yu Yao roughly knew some information about how to clean, which was also a reference.
However, the situation is very different now.
"All things are born in the earth, and the five elements are centered on the earth, and at first glance, it seems that the yellow stone ball should be put into the hole in the middle palace. However, I don't think it's that simple. Xiao Ying continued.
Yu Yao nodded, "Looking for it from the heart, I feel everything." Judging from these eight inscriptions, the person who set up the mechanism is not only clever, but also magnificent; this sentence seems to be commenting on the mechanism of our cracking entrance, and it is like giving a hint to the current mechanism. โ
Xiao Ying listened, her brows furrowed slightly, "How do I feel, these two mechanisms don't seem to be set up by one person?"
"You mean one Buddha and one together, working together?"
"Hmm. Therefore, to crack this pattern of five elements and nine palaces, we cannot simply use Taoist ideas to participate in research. โ
Both were lost in thought.
After a long time, Yu Yao slowly raised his head, "Emptiness is color, color is emptiness, five elements and five colors, and all five colors are empty." โ
Xiao Ying heard this, "You and I want to go together!"
"It's just a momentary thought, not necessarily accurate. โ
"Don't wait any longer. Just like the entrance hexagram, do not act in vain, and it is useless to think too much. โ
Yu Yao groaned slightly, "Okay! In my opinion, the people who set up the organs do not have the intention of harming people, if we can't crack it, then we can probably get out of it." โ
"You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people. Xiao Ying said, "In this way, I will first go to the boulder at the entrance and try to prepare to prevent the entrance of the cave from suddenly closing, and then you can put in five stone balls." โ
When Yu Yao heard this, he didn't object, it's not a bad thing to be careful, and besides, it was useless to let him go to the entrance, only Xiao Ying could have a way to resist it.
The two of them have their own duties.
Xiao Ying shouted when he was ready, and Yu Yao picked up five small balls and put them into the hole in the middle palace one by one.
After putting it in, there was no movement.
"Get out first!Just in case!" Xiao Ying shouted at the entrance.
Yu Yao quickly ran up the ramp, and the two went out from the entrance one after another.
Standing in front of the tombstone, Xiao Ying said, "If we can't hear the movement of the stone gate inside, then we have to go back." โ
Yu Yao nodded, "The wisdom of the ancients is already unfathomable, and this cave combines the opportunities of the two major mysteries of Buddhism and Taoism. โ
As soon as the words fell, I heard a muffled sound from inside, like the sound of a rumbling fall.
After about two or three minutes, the ringing stopped. The two waited for another ten minutes or so, and Xiao Ying spoke, "You wait outside, I'll go down and take a look!"
Without waiting for Yu Yao to speak, Xiao Ying dodged and entered the ramp.
Yu Yao shouted, but Xiao Ying didn't answer.
"his grandma!" Yu Yao didn't think twice, and also went down the ramp, heading straight for the entrance of the cave.
When I arrived at the entrance of the cave, I saw that the stone door had sunken and was flush with the ground, revealing a small stone room.
"Why don't you listen to me!" Xiao Ying looked at the stone room, but said to Yu Yao.
"Don't talk about it, it's all down!" Yu Yao looked at the stone room and found that it was very clean, with only one stone table, and a stone bench on the left and right sides.
On the stone table, there is a scroll, like silk.
Other than that, there is nothing else.
Seeing this, the two nodded to each other and entered the stone room.
Xiao Ying put on his gloves and slowly called the scroll. Yu Yao also put on gloves and stood aside.
The scroll was not wide, less than two feet, but when it was unfolded, it was more than three meters long, and it was covered with small letters written on it.
Then the two of them held one end, Yu Yao looked at the silk and pen and ink, and nodded at Xiao Ying, "This is indeed something from the Northern Song Dynasty, and the Southwest Dali Kingdom is also in the continuation period." โ
"Look at the content. Xiao Ying originally wanted to say that he would take it out to see it, but after thinking about all kinds of strange things, it would be better to take a look here first.
The scroll more than three meters long, with a small fly's head, has a lot of content, and it will definitely not be able to finish reading it for a while. However, after looking at the first part, Yu Yao and Xiao Ying roughly understood what was going on.
This is about Duan Silian, that is, the high monk Guangde, who returned to Dali at the age of 64 after traveling, built a temple, opened a Zen platform, and his disciples worshipped him, and there were countless believers. During this period, there was a rootless Taoist who chased and killed the villain to the temple, and he happened to be bumped into by Guangde, so he stopped the rootless Taoist.
Wugen told Guangde that this villain had committed many crimes and had to be killed, and Guangde said: The Buddha is merciful, and those who commit sins can also put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot.
If someone kills your whole family, insults your mother, your wife, and your young daughter, and then puts down the butcher's knife and returns to the Buddha, will you recognize him as a Buddha? Kill one person, the Buddha will accept it, kill a hundred people, and the Buddha will accept it, kill thousands of people, and the Buddha will accept it! This is not compassion, but there is no protection without principle, and if you do something wrong, you should bear the consequences.
While speaking, Wugen took the opportunity to raid and take the life of the villain.
Because of this incident, Wugen and Guangde met on the top of the valley of Wuliang Mountain to have a great debate about Buddhism, which is right and wrong, and which is better and which is inferior.
At the beginning of this debate, Guangde first asked: How do you think of Buddhism?
"Foreign teachers came to the west, lived in China, and were used by the imperial power, and the common people also received illusory blessings. That's a very unkind remark.
Wugen asked rhetorically: Master Guangde, what do you think of my Taoism?
"The local religion is the way for heaven. Guangde's answer was very simple. Simplicity sometimes doesn't mean that you don't understand, but you don't want to evaluate too much, which seems to have something to do with Wugen's killing in front of Guangde.
The content of the debate between the two is too complex, and the ancient text is concise, and the content has many mysteries, and it takes time to understand.
As a result, Yu Yao and Xiao Ying could only jump and watch, glimpsing past the main content of the debate, and then focusing on the ending.
The two of them debated for three days and three nights, and in the end, no one could convince anyone, so they jointly decided to record the content of the debate and seal it in the valley.
Because of this, the two of them joined forces to set up heavy aura barriers and mechanisms. In their opinion, if such barriers and mechanisms can be successfully broken, then they are basically worthy of judgment.
Yu Yao and Xiao Ying looked at each other, and then involuntarily stretched out their hands at the same time to point to the last sentence.
