In the 123rd round, the two monks met and competed for the Buddha in Zhenchi, and were poisoned

The gentleman asked that the return date is not due,

Bashan night rain rises autumn pool.

Why should we cut the candles in the west window?

But when it rains at night in Bashan.

If it weren't for this special world and special period, Qin Xi, the little dragon with reverse scales, really wanted to use this song "Night Rain Sending North", which was quite popular in the middle years of the Tang Dynasty, to express this rare feeling of joy at this time. When young people with close relationships get together, they can finally relieve their nervous nerves, and everyone can drink and talk happily, what a hearty thing it should be, however, people in the rivers and lakes, even if they can have this moment of joy, how can they get around the cruel reality? When talking about the past of Shaolin Temple, Ruoling, the little master of Prajna, who has always been approachable, has a rare loneliness and entanglement on his face.

"Brother Duanmu is reasonable, Master Ruoling, according to Xiao's opinion, you don't have to worry too much about his old man, maybe Master Huiyun's departure is something important to do?" "As for the matter of your third uncle, Master Huichuan, please forgive Xiao Bo for being ignorant, although the commander of the Battle Axe Gate has been for some years, he has never heard of the death of Master Huichuan, Master Ruoling, is it convenient to inform about this?"

"My third uncle, his old man....... was killed. Ruo Ling groaned slightly, and then replied, the other four people were all shocked when they heard this, and the little grandmaster obviously expected their reaction, so he lowered his head and took another sip of wine.

Xiao Youlong listened to it with a burst of nervousness in his heart, although he had a faint guess about the death of Master Huichuan early in the morning, but he never dared to make a conclusion until he was confirmed by a conclusive statement, and now, finally listening to Ruoling say it himself, this shocking feeling is still unabated.

That's the third of the five famous monks of Shaolin, a sword immortal-level figure known as "Hand and Eye Tongtian Zhenchi Buddha" in the rivers and lakes, ranked twelfth on the list of eighteen people in Huotianlu, higher than the Golden Light and Blood Holy Mother Xi Fenglian, such a high status, such a high ability, who can kill him?

"Oops...... Master Ruoling, I heard that this Master Huichuan is not only a senior monk in Shaolin, quite a status in the rivers and lakes, but also a very calm and low-key person, when he was in Beihai, he often heard the family teacher mention his old man's affairs, saying that he has always been compassion-based, good thoughts, every major event in the martial arts, and always willing to share worries and solve problems for colleagues from all walks of life, such a bodhisattva's heart, how can he also be poisoned?"

"What Brother Duanmu said is, my third uncle's personality, how can my nephew not know it? The little monk grew up in the Shaolin General Dean since he was a child, and he has been with his master and several uncles day and night for so many years, and he is not shy about saying that in addition to my master, it is my third uncle who cares about me the most. A trace of sourness flashed across Ruoling's face, and then said, "If you want to talk about the murder of his old man, not only everyone feels strange, but even Shaolin up and down also feels very strange. ”

Then, the little grandmaster told the other four about the murder of Master Huichuan, and a few young people didn't listen, the more they listened, the more incredible they felt.

It turned out that a few years ago, the Songshan Shaolin General Institute had a meeting with a group of Buddhist portals of the Tantric sect, and the purpose of this meeting seemed to be just to discuss the Buddha's purpose. The exchange method, in fact, is the Tantric sect of the portal to Shaolin's temptation, the five famous monks are famous, their attainments in Buddhism and martial arts, but all the people in the martial arts give a thumbs up, naturally it also attracted other Buddhist portals want to exchange ideas, such a meeting was understandable, but no one thought that in such a meeting of the monks and Buddha, there was an unpleasant embarrassing episode.

"Originally, the meeting went smoothly, and although there were slight differences in understanding of some of the views in Buddhism, Shaolin, which represents Zen Buddhism, and the various portals of Tantra, after all, everyone was just different, and of course they could understand each other. However, when talking about the public case of 'the Buddha throwing flowers to the Venerable Ka Ye', my third uncle had an obvious disagreement with a representative of the Tantric sect, whose name was Xie Kun, who was a disciple of Master Chi Mani, the abbot of the Golden Wheel Monastery in the Great Snow Mountain of Tibet.

There is no difference in the understanding of this allusion between the two people, however, their views on the implementation of the gist of this allusion are very different. At first, both tried to convince the people with reason, but the difference in their positions made it impossible for either of them to convince the other, and finally a heated argument broke out. Although my third uncle is usually low-key, he has an almost paranoid attitude towards what he believes in, and Master Xie Kun is also a person with a strong temperament, and it is not difficult to see from his nickname of 'Thunderbolt Fire', just like that, the argument between the two eventually turned into a conflict between the Dharma, so that even my master couldn't get off the stage. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Youlong couldn't help but wonder a little, and said in his heart: Is there such a thing? A mere allusion can make two eminent monks disagree and blow up their hair on the spot? So what kind of allusion is this so-called 'Buddha Flowers'?

Obviously, Qin Xi is not the only one who has this kind of question, Nie Yu and Duanmu Ang on the side are also confused, of course, the two young people don't know much about this Buddhist classic, and when they noticed the doubts on everyone's faces, Ruoling also hurriedly and patiently explained:

“…… In fact, the allusion of this 'Buddha holding flowers' is a rather intriguing little story, which is about a Lingshan conference, the great Brahma King offered the Buddha with golden pineapple flowers, and asked the Buddha to teach the Dharma, but the Buddha did not say a word, just lightly plucked the pineapple flowers all over the public, the demeanor was calm, very serene, everyone did not understand its meaning, only the Buddha's eldest disciple - The Buddha gave the flower to the Venerable Kasya, and told everyone: I have the Dharma Eye Hidden, Nirvana Wonderful Heart, Reality Without Appearance, Subtle Method, No Words, No Teaching, Outer Teaching, and Transmission with the Dharma of Heart Imprint.

This allusion not only shows that you have a thorough understanding of Zen principles, but also expresses the tacit understanding of heart and mind. Among them, the so-called Nirvana wonderful mind is the explanation of enlightenment and enlightenment through the mind. But it was precisely this point that caused a disagreement between my third uncle and Master Xie Kun.

The third uncle believes that in order to cultivate Buddhism, it is necessary to cultivate the mind, cultivate the mind, and get rid of distracting thoughts and selfish desires, so that the realm can be improved, and then the comprehension of the Dharma can be further improved. In other words, Master Xie Kun is a great advocate of selfish desires, and often think about them, so that he will not make the same mistakes in his future practice, and the differences between the two eminent monks cannot reach a consensus here. ”

Qin Xi listened, but also very rewarding, this Master Huichuan and Master Xie Kun's ideas actually have their own truth, it is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong, these distracting thoughts and selfish desires they talked about are innate to people, according to the Buddhism that this little master said, people must get rid of distracting thoughts and selfish desires, in order to have the improvement of the realm, but if the distracting thoughts and selfish desires themselves are not wrong? In the years when he was studying, Xiao Youlong was able to cite many examples to illustrate the contribution of selfish desires to the promotion of the historical process, so from this point of view, the "thunderbolt fire" Master Xie Kun's understanding of Buddhism seems to be slightly higher than that of Master Huichuan, so the reason why the "Buddha of the Hands and Eyes of the Heavenly Town" had a quarrel with Xie Kun over this matter was just because he couldn't let go of it for a while? What does it have to do with the fact that he unfortunately died later? I'm afraid it's not that simple.

After a slight pause, the little master continued: "That meeting ended so awkwardly in the end, although the atmosphere was very awkward for a while, but as the host of the conference, my master still personally came forward to apologize to Master Xie Kun and the eminent monks of the Tantric sect, and criticized my third uncle, blaming him for not being serious about such a trivial matter. It affected the harmony between the gates, but the strange thing is that the third uncle, who has always respected my master the most, did not think that he was at fault, and there was even a quarrel between the two brothers.

In the next few days, the third uncle closed his door in the precept institute and went to meditation all day long, and the master and his elder brothers were also worried that he had drilled the tip of the horns, and they would often come to take a look, and one day something finally happened. On that day, the little monk accompanied the master and his old man to personally deliver a meal to the third uncle, taking this opportunity, the master also wanted the old brother and son to have a good talk, who knew that as soon as he entered the gate of the precept institute, he saw a terrible scene, the corpses of the disciples of the precept academy were all over the ground, bloodstains everywhere, and the third uncle was actually moving and fighting with a man in black. How dare the master slack off, for fear that the third uncle would suffer, he asked the little monk to hurry up and call the other disciples to come to support, and he himself went straight to the accident site to support the third uncle.

Someone trespassed into the Shaolin Temple Discipline Academy, this matter can be a big trouble, the little monk quickly called the brothers, everyone looked at those corpses, all were startled, and saw that the disciples who were killed were all killed by a move, and the recruits saw blood, and some disciples were even beaten to pieces, and even their faces were blurred by flesh and blood, and the cruelty of the means was simply outrageous. Of course, everyone was also worried about the safety of the master and the third uncle, and after leaving a few people to guard the scene, the rest of the people all went to look for the master and uncle. However, when everyone rushed to the outside of the temple for nearly ten miles, they met the master who had returned from despair, and learned from his old man's mouth that he was a step too late to catch up with him just now, and the third uncle had already been poisoned by the man in black.

And when everyone came to the place where the third uncle was killed, they were all shocked by the tragic death of the uncle, with blood and shocking wounds all over the ground, and the man in black had already fled and disappeared. A few days after that, the entire Shaolin General Institute was under full martial law, and the murderer of the third uncle was tracked down everywhere, and the discord between the previous uncle and the master Xie Kun naturally attracted everyone's attention, many people speculated that this matter was directly related to the 'thunderbolt fire' monk Xie Kun, for a while, all kinds of rumors arose, and the rivers and lakes were also boiling, and some people even suspected that there was something wrong with our Shaolin, so that it caused a disaster Xiao Wall, The tragedy of the same room, and the spearhead of many of these rumors, actually pointed directly at the family teacher, saying that his disagreement with his junior brother caused a conflict, and then escalated the conflict, and also implicated and gave his life to a disciple of the Discipline Academy, who had nothing to do with it! The little monk saw the man in black who was working with the third uncle, how could he tolerate such malicious slanderous rumors?"

When Ruo Ling said this, a trace of resentment flashed across her face, Xiao Bo and Nie Yu were also very nervous when they heard it, but Xiao Youlong had some thoughts in his heart. Qin Xi couldn't help but secretly said: Hmph, it's really indispensable to have these rumor-mongering masters, Shaolin Temple is famous, I'm afraid there are many people who want to see the excitement of Shaolin early in the morning, but even so, it really can't be ruled out that there is no relationship between the man in black that the little grandmaster saw at that time and Master Huiyun, so why did this abbot Huiyun leave later? Could it be that he really has an unknown relationship with the murder of his junior brother?

Xiao Youlong was secretly thinking to himself, but Ruoling continued to speak, and the next words of this little grandmaster made Qin Xi and the others even more dumbfounded.......
