Chapter 198: Reply (5000 words)
The host of Xiaoleiyin Temple, the Fahai Divine Monk is an antique-level existence.
He became famous 10,000 years ago, earlier than the Linglong Holy Lord.
Back then, the Fahai Divine Monk fought with a supreme snake demon in the Heavenly Demon Continent and suppressed him under the forbidden ** tower of the Little Leiyin Temple.
That battle completely demonstrated to the world the strength of the Western Desert Buddhism.
As the most powerful existence in the Western Desert, the Fahai Divine Monk didn't know how many years he had cultivated.
10,000 years ago, the Fahai Divine Monk had become the strongest in the Western Desert.
At this moment, five Buddha rays appeared behind the head of the Fahai Divine Monk.
This meant that he already possessed the strongest terrifying strength of the Immortal Realm Five Realms.
Just go one step further and you'll step into the legendary realm of the Emperor!
The strength of the Fahai Monk and the profundity of the Dharma are so profound that people can't see through them at all.
At this moment, the Fahai Divine Monk has an extremely old face, and his body exudes the light of Buddha.
In the eyes of outsiders, the flesh and blood of the Fahai Divine Monk are close to drying up.
It seems that even the vitality is about to disappear.
This scene naturally does not mean that the Fahai Divine Monk is about to die.
After the martial artist reached the immortal realm, his strength was undoubtedly thorough.
How could it be so easy to die!
At this moment, the Fahai Divine Monk sat cross-legged on the quaint futon, and his expression did not change in the slightest.
In those cloudy eyes, there was astonishing wisdom.
At a glance, others can understand the truth of life from it!
By Fahai's side, sitting are the two great monks of Fatian and Fadi!
These two great monks are contemporaries of the Fahai monks.
At the same time, he is also the younger brother of the god of the sea!
At this moment, when the Fahai Divine Monk heard the words of the Fatian Divine Monk, a smile suddenly appeared on the old man's face.
"This man may surprise us, his theory of Taoism is unprecedented!"
"The poor monk is sure that this Haotian Holy Son must be the person we are looking for!"
The Fahai Divine Monk spoke slowly, and his tone was very firm.
Hearing this, Fa Tian and Fa Di nodded, but thinking of Jun Haotian's identity, they frowned again.
Even if the Holy Son of Haotian was the one they were looking for.
But the identity of Haotian Holy Son is a little difficult to handle.
After all, he is the only holy son of the Langya Holy Land!
If this matter is not dealt with properly, it will cause big trouble!
"Your worries are naturally understood by the poor monks, and you can relax, the poor monks have their own methods!"
Seeing the expressions of the two, the Fahai Divine Monk slowly spoke, and his originally old face seemed to be a little older again.
Infinite wisdom flashed in his cloudy eyes, and the Fahai Divine Monk spoke: "The specific disposition depends on how this person behaves in the defense hall!"
When Fatian and Fadi heard this, they immediately nodded.
Not bad.
Compared with the defense hall of Xiaoleiyin Temple, the conscience test of Langya Holy Land is just the beginning.
The real test.
It begins only after entering the defense hall.
Then, the three monks slowly closed their eyes and muttered the scriptures in their mouths.
It seems to be quietly waiting for something.
............
Compared with the exterior of the Little Leiyin Temple, the inside of the Little Leiyin Temple is undoubtedly much quieter.
There is no weird Buddha sound.
However, inside the Xiaoleiyin Temple, there are also many monks who come and go!
These monks, after seeing Xuanzang monks, all folded their hands to show their respect!
After all, Monk Xuanzang is the chief disciple of Xiaoleiyin Temple.
This kind of identity is equivalent to Jun Haotian's status in the Langya Holy Land.
Following behind Xuanzang Monk, soon, Xuanzang Monk brought Jun Haotian to the defense hall.
Inside the defense hall is a large oval room surrounded by various statues of the Buddha.
Each Buddha statue is a golden body, and the body is blooming with endless Buddha light!
Just one glance, it makes people admire!
In front of the statue of the Buddha, there are also many futons.
At this moment, there are many monks sitting cross-legged on these futons.
They were closing their eyes tightly and muttering something softly.
Could it be that these people have also come to go through the test of the defense hall?
Looking at this scene, Jun Haotian guessed in his heart.
In the center of the main hall, a monk stood, his eyes contemplative.
In front of the monks, a Buddha incense was burning, which was slowly burning.
Seeing this, Jun Haotian suddenly thought in his mind.
In normal times, there will be some monks in Xiaoleiyin Temple, who will solve the doubts of those who enter the defense hall.
Or someone from the outside world comes to defend and the results are very good, then you will be rewarded by Xiaoleiyin Temple.
Compared to other strengths, the cultivation methods of Buddhism have always been completely different.
At this moment, the monk standing in the center of the main hall should be the monk who came to reply.
Moreover, he should have encountered a difficult problem and couldn't answer it.
This was the first level, and it stumped him.
Around the defense hall, there are also four gates, and monks gather in twos and threes.
The reply is above board.
And every time the problem is completely different. So you can allow others to watch it.
"Smack!"
At this moment, a crack sounded in the air.
The monk standing in the defense hall was struck by lightning.
There was a blood mark directly on his back, which was a whip.
"Time has passed, the defense has not been successful, and the first level has failed. ”
In the defense hall, an old monk announced.
Looking at the old monk, Jun Haotian's eyes froze!
The strength of this old monk is very strong, at least the powerhouse of the Immortal Realm.
Compared with other forces, although the Western Desert Buddhism has never had a supreme existence.
But the foundation of Buddhism is also extremely rich.
Take the power of the Immortal Realm as an example, the number of powers of the Little Lei Yin Temple will definitely not be lost to a certain holy land, the Ancient Dynasty.
Looking at the monk who was whipped, Jun Haotian showed a trace of doubt in his eyes.
This answer is wrong, and he will still be beaten, and he will be whipped by the power of the Immortal Realm!
"This is the rule of the defense hall, as long as the defense fails, you will be whipped!"
"However, as long as you successfully pass the three levels, you can directly erase the punishment of whipping!"
As if seeing the doubts in Jun Haotian's eyes, Xuanzang began to explain.
Hearing this, Jun Haotian nodded understandingly.
But there was an uncomfortable feeling in my heart.
This powerful whip of the Immortal Realm is no joke, the skin is open.
And it is the people of the Immortal Five Realms who make a move, no matter how they can't dodge.
As the Buddhist saying goes, compassion is cherished!
Now it seems that this Buddha is afraid that it is the most ruthless existence.
For the whipping of the power of the Immortal Realm, Jun Haotian is naturally a little taboo.
But thinking of the purpose of his trip, Jun Haotian finally took a deep breath.
"Monk Xuanzang, don't forget what you said, as long as I pass the defense hall, the host must see me. ”
Looking at Xuanzang Divine Monk, Jun Haotian said in an extremely serious tone.
"Holy Son, please relax, the monks don't speak, what the poor monk said is naturally true!"
Hearing this, the monk Xuanzang suddenly clasped his hands together, and his attitude was very solemn.
Hearing this, Jun Haotian nodded, and then stepped into the defense hall without hesitation!
The moment he stepped into the defense hall, Xiaoleiyin Temple shouted: "Langya Holy Son, contemporary Holy Son, Haotian came to defend!"
As soon as Jun Haotian's voice sounded, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Not only the people who came to the assessment, but even the senior monks in the defense hall also looked at the coming Jun Haotian.
At the same time, many monks also walked out of other places, and they all looked towards Jun Haotian.
"Haotian Holy Son of Langya Holy Land, why did he come to Xiaoleiyin Temple?"
"I don't know, it is said that the abbot asked Senior Brother Xuanzang to personally invite him. ”
"Really? Isn't Tianjiao like to come to challenge the Defense Hall? A few years ago, wasn't there a Kunlun Holy Son who also came to challenge?"
"Kunlun Holy Son, that is the first day of the Eastern Wilderness, when he first replied, he cleared twelve levels in a row!"
"That's right, that's the best result an outsider can get in the defense hall. ”
At this moment, the surrounding onlookers opened their mouths to discuss.
Hearing this, Jun Haotian couldn't help but be a little surprised.
He didn't expect that the Holy Son of Kunlun would actually come to Jun Haotian today.
Moreover, I also challenged the defense hall in the same way!
"The defense begins!"
But just when Jun Haotian was thinking, a voice came from the defense hall.
In the defense hall, in the land of Buddhism, all living beings are equal.
Even if it is the Holy Son of Haotian, it is treated equally.
In front of Jun Haotian, a Buddha incense was lit in the copper furnace, and a stick of incense was almost a quarter of an hour.
If you can't answer within a quarter of an hour, then it's considered a failure!
If it is successful, the Buddha incense will be extinguished, and it will be counted as a pass.
Soon, a high monk sitting in front of Jun Haotian opened his eyes.
From time to time, his eyes shone with wisdom!
He glanced at Jun Haotian and asked the first question!
"May I ask the Holy Son of Haotian, what are the eight sufferings?".
Chapter 2 "Customs Clearance"
What are the Eight Sufferings?
Hearing this senior monk's question, Jun Haotian suddenly fell into thought.
In fact, this problem is not very difficult for Jun Haotian.
There are no pitfalls in the words!
In his previous life, Jun Haotian had also seen a lot of Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures
I don't like these, I'm just a little interested.
At the beginning, on the canonization ceremony of Langya Holy Land, he relied on these memories to obtain the recognition of the nine sages of Langya Holy Land.
Although the memories in my mind have been a little blurry.
But at this moment, Jun Haotian has already reached the cultivation of the Dharma Realm.
As long as he remembers with his heart, the things he has seen before will come to his mind.
There won't be a single thing missing!
Thinking of this, Jun Haotian replied without thinking.
"The so-called eight sufferings are birth, old age, sickness, death, love and separation, long-term resentment, unwanted, and unable to let go. ”
Jun Haotian spoke slowly, a little easy!
He was very confident in his answer, and there was no hesitation at all.
At the moment when Jun Haotian's words fell, a note of Buddha incense in front of him was extinguished.
This means that Jun Haotian has passed the first level!
Seeing this scene, the big stone hanging in Jun Haotian's heart finally landed.
In fact, Jun Haotian still has a trace of worry in his heart.
He also knew that Buddhism seemed to be very good at the art of sophistry, which was very mysterious!
As he had seen in his previous life, sometimes no matter how you answered, it was not right.
There will be contradictory answers!
Perhaps, now is just the beginning.
Buddhism does not need to resort to sophistry.
If he came to sophistry from the beginning, then Jun Haotian would have a headache.
"Haotian Holy Son, you won a game, it's up to you to solve the problem next. ”
After Jun Haotian answered correctly, the senior monk suddenly opened his mouth to remind Jun Haotian.
Answer one question correctly and beat the level!
If the other party answers a question correctly, even if it is standing still, it will not be added or subtracted.
But if the other party answers incorrectly or incorrectly, even if you continue to pass through a level, so there are a total of eighteen levels.
In this first level, the other party is obviously waterproof.
That Jun Haotian naturally didn't want to embarrass the other party.
Thinking of this, Jun Haotian began to ask: "Dare to ask the monks, the Tao is high and the Buddha is high?"
As soon as Jun Haotian said this, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly.
The people present are all practicing Buddhism, and naturally they are dedicated to the Buddha.
Therefore, in their hearts, it is natural to think that the Buddha is higher than the Tao.
"My heart is to the Buddha, so the Buddha is one foot high. ”
Obviously, the monk thought the same way.
Without the slightest hesitation, he spoke directly to his answer.
And the words of this eminent monk did not cause any uproar.
Everyone felt that what the monk said was right.
The other party has made it very clear that my heart is towards the Buddha, so I think the Buddha is one foot taller.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this explanation.
Moreover, this is the Xiaoleiyin Temple, which belongs to the Buddhist forces.
When this eminent monk said this, he was also unspeakable!
Of course, the same question, for different people, will get different answers.
In the same way, Buddhism can say it, but Taoism can't.
If you are in the land of Taoism, this sentence naturally cannot be said.
That's the difference between home and away.
However, after hearing this, Jun Haotian showed a strange smile on his face.
He asks this question, which seems simple, but in fact there are hidden pitfalls.
Thinking of this, Jun Haotian suddenly said: "The master is wrong, your heart is to the Buddha, so the Buddha is one foot taller." ”
"But you are hypocritically oriented to the Buddha, so there is no way in your eyes, so you say that the Buddha is one foot taller.
"But if you are sincere to the Buddha, you should have the Tao in your eyes and embrace all things, this Buddha is one foot higher!"
The answer to this question should be straightforward, and there is no high or low. ”
Jun Haotian's words were sonorous and powerful.
The other party's meaning is very simple, I am a disciple of Buddhism, and I put the Buddha in my heart, so Buddhism is high!
And the meaning of Jun Haotian's justification is also very simple.
You are a disciple of Buddhism, but you are a hypocritical disciple of Buddhism.
Because the true disciples of Buddhism are vast, like the vast ocean, boundless and boundless, containing everything.
Doing so is just a Buddha who is a foot higher, and you are hypocritical to worship the Buddha simply.
Therefore, the Buddha can only be one foot high, and this foot is only one foot in your heart.
"Wonderful!"
"That's a wonderful answer!"
"Hey, this sub-argument method is simply a whimsical idea, with great wisdom!"
"He is worthy of being the Holy Son of Haotian, he can have such an achievement, it is really extraordinary!"
At this moment, after hearing Jun Haotian's words, the onlookers outside suddenly exclaimed.
However, there were still some monks who heard Jun Haotian's words and fell into deep thought.
They didn't want to agree with the theory of the Little Lei Yin Temple.
But Jun Haotian's explanation is very much in line with their Buddhist philosophy.
The more they think about it, the more they can't find fault with it.
In the end, I can only sigh one after another!
"A good sentence of false heart to the Buddha; Therefore, there is no way in the eyes, and the Buddha is one foot high!"
At this moment, the senior monk who asked the question also spoke slowly.
He looked at Jun Haotian, folded his hands, and his attitude was very polite.
"Haotian Holy Son is sincerely to the Buddha, there is a way in his eyes, and the Buddha is one foot higher!
"The benefactor is wise, and the poor monk is ashamed. ”
After the ancient monks failed in the debate, not only did they not have any anger at all.
Instead, I realized it carefully.
Then he took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Jun Haotian, who was extremely sincere.
There is no pretentious feeling at all, it is a heartfelt gratitude.
Like a true Buddhist monk.
"Knowing mistakes and correcting them, good is great, this is great enlightenment, good!"
Jun Haotian nodded, his gaze flat.
The defense is not a quarrel.
He won't be aggressive either!
"Bell!"
"Bell!"
At this time, a Buddhist bell rang outside the defense hall.
Two voices in a row, on behalf of Jun Haotian passed two levels in a row!
The ancient monk closed his eyes.
And next to the old monk, another monk opened his eyes.
"What is fate?"
Here comes the second question!
Jun Haotian, who heard the question, thought carefully.
Buddhism talks about fate, and fate is cause and effect.
But what is the reason for this, the question is too broad, and it is a debate topic.
But soon, Jiang Chen thought of the answer.
"If the fate comes, it goes, when it gathers, it disperses, when it arises, when it arises, when it falls, it dies!
"All laws are born by fate, and fate is destined to come!"
"Fate goes to people to take it by themselves, planting is like the cause, reaping it is like the effect, everything is made by idealism!"
"Bell!"
Jun Haotian's voice just fell, and he didn't wait for the Buddha incense in front of him to go out.
Outside, a Buddha bell rang.
This means that Jun Haotian's answer has been recognized again.
Seeing this scene, the onlookers immediately looked at each other.
This Haotian Holy Son's answer actually directly bypassed the person who asked the question and was recognized by the Buddha Bell.
It's incredible!
And for this answer, Jun Haotian used a commentary in the Buddhist Diamond Sutra.
Because the original text is a little more complicated.
So Jun Haotian is talking about annotations!
"Good!"
"That's a wonderful answer!"
"If fate comes, it goes, and when it gathers, it disperses, good, good, good. ”
At the entrance of the defense hall, there were many monks watching, some of whom were highly cultivated, and some of whom were of low cultivation.
Buddhists like to look for questions and like to answer them.
Jun Haotian directly passed three levels in a row.
And in this fourth level, it's his turn to have a problem again!
