"What do you want me to say, I was sent to farm not long after I entered, and I didn't even enter the gate of the Zen monastery. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" said the fat man grinning.

Nanfeng nodded, Foguang Temple is divided into two areas, one is the monk's house at the foot of the mountain, and the other is the Foguang Zen Temple on the mountainside, which is the place where the relics pagoda is enshrined, and it is also the place where the monks in the temple are cultivated.

"Tell me about the daily routine of the monks. Nanfeng said.

The fat man took a sip of wine, put the cork back on, and said, "I wake up at three o'clock in the hour, get dressed and washed, and then go to the morning class of the Daxiong Treasure Hall to recite the scriptures......"

Nanfeng interrupted the fat man's words, "It's too general, let's talk about it in detail, how long does it take to get dressed and washed, and when does it take to go to the Daxiong Treasure Palace?"

The fat man knew that Nanfeng asked these questions in order to help him seek the eight golden bodies, so he carefully told the daily life of the monks of Foguang Temple, and listened to the clock to get up at three o'clock, and it would take a little more than a quarter of an hour to get dressed and wash and go to the thatched house, and it was five o'clock when he arrived at the Daxiong Treasure Hall to gather.

An hour is divided into eight quarters, five and six quarters are the time to worship the Buddha, and seven and eight quarters are the time to worship and confess.

The morning service begins in earnest and involves reciting eight scriptures, including the Heart Sutra, for half an hour.

After the end of the morning class, it is time to practice martial arts and fitness, and the duration is also half an hour.

Chenshi went to Wuguantang to eat, Wuguantang is the dining hall, and the meal time is two quarters of an hour.

The period from breakfast to noon is the time for meditation, and for foreign monks like the fat man and the novice who has not been ordained, it is the time to work.

If it's a good day, there will be a lunch at noon, but now it's a bad year, and there is no lunch.

From noon to the fourth hour of Shen, it is also the autonomous time of the monks, who can sleep or meditate and participate in meditation. Since they only eat one meal a day, most of the monks sleep in their rooms at this time, and even if they don't sleep, they lie down or sit still, and if they move, they waste their physical strength and become hungry easily.

The half-hour from the fourth quarter of the hour to the hour of the unitary hour is the time for evening classes, and it is necessary to recite the seven scriptures, including the mantra of the past life.

Then there is semi-free time, you can stay in the main hall to confess, or you can go back to your own residence to meditate.

According to the regulations, the monks fall asleep on the third watch, but after being hungry for a day, most of them go back to the room and go to sleep, and they do not wait for the third watch.

Influenced by Confucianism, the shelves of Taoist priests are relatively large, and they attach great importance to respecting the elders and the young, and Taoist priests of different levels will enjoy different treatment, and there is no equal treatment for Taoist priests.

However, Buddhism is transmitted from other countries, and it is believed that all living beings are equal, even if they are virtuous monks, there is no special treatment, and their daily routines are the same as those of ordinary monks, and they will also go to the Mahavira Hall to conduct morning classes, and they will also go to the dining hall to eat in person.

The cleaning in the Foguang Monastery was also done by themselves, and they did not send an envoy to call the little novice.

There are more than a dozen great monks living in Foguang Monastery, some of these great monks are specialized in practicing Buddhism, and the rest are practicing martial arts and practicing qi, and those monks who specialize in Buddhism do not practice qi, but they also have special abilities, called supernatural powers, supernatural powers are based on the comprehension of Buddhism, and have nothing to do with spiritual qi cultivation.

And those great monks who practice qi are very similar to Taoist priests, they borrow from the Taoist breath to practice qi, and can use their own aura to use some of the supernatural methods recorded in the Buddhist scriptures.

Those monks who specialize in Buddhism follow the old path of the Gentiles, and there are not many of them. And those monks who practice qi are to integrate foreign Buddhism and Middle-earth qi practice into one, learning from each other's strengths and complementing each other's weaknesses, which is the mainstream at this time.

The fat man was careless, and he didn't count the specific number of great monks in the Zen courtyard, but he noticed that every time he ate, the monks who fasted would put two bowls on the table of the great monk, and the big monks who came to eat did not touch these two bowls of rice, and those two bowls of rice should be kept for whom.

"Who in the Foguang Temple knows the Eight Golden Bodies?" asked Nanfeng.

What Nanfeng asked was not a secret, and the fat man naturally knew, "The abbot Yuankong and the prison temple are the same, and the same is Yuankong's apprentice." ”

"Do they practice qi?" asked Nanfeng again.

"Practice. It seems that there are only a few old monks who don't practice qi. The fat man replied.

Nanfeng nodded slowly.

Seeing that Nanfeng had been frowning, the fat man asked, "Can't you steal it?"

Nanfeng waved his hand, "I'm not worried about this, the eight-part golden body is engraved on the eight-fold treasure letter, the eight-fold treasure letter is transmitted from the Western Regions with the relics, Buddhism may not have practiced qi from the foreign countries, it is to learn from the Taoist method of practicing qi in Middle-earth, what I am worried about is that the eight-part golden body is not based on qi training, but on the premise of supernatural powers." ”

Nanfeng said profoundly, and the fat man was stunned for a moment before he understood, "Probably not." ”

"If you need to comprehend the supernatural powers to be able to perform the Eight Golden Bodies, even if we steal the Eightfold Treasure Letter, you won't be able to practice this kung fu. Nanfeng said that before doing something, the first thing to make sure is that it is worth doing, and then how to do it.

"What then?" the fat man panicked.

Nanfeng raised his hand and signaled the fat man to be calm.

Yuankong and his disciples are qi practitioners, and they can use the eight-part golden body, but this does not mean that they can practice the eight-part golden body through qi training, because it is possible for the two of them to meditate and practice qi at the same time as the Dharma.

At present, there is no direct evidence to determine what kind of premise is needed for the cultivation of the Eight Golden Bodies, but there are two circumstantial evidences, one is that the Eight Golden Bodies were created by the monks of Middle-earth inspired by the graphics on the Eightfold Treasure Letter, and they were not directly transmitted from foreign countries.

Second, although Buddhism is not as strong as the three sects of Taoism, there are also many masters of purple qi, although they have borrowed from the Taoist method of practicing qi, but they do not have the opportunity to contact the method of practicing qi above the mountain, since they cannot get in touch with the high-grade method of practicing qi, where does their purple qi come from? There is only one answer, that is, they take the six true scriptures under the Taoist family mountain as their body, and take the Buddhist supernatural power as the leader, replacing the three secret three scriptures of the cave and the Yuan Taixuan. Since it can be transferred, it means that the foreign supernatural powers and the Middle-earth qi training can be fused, in other words, it is possible to use the Middle-earth qi training method to perform the foreign supernatural powers.

"It's not a big problem, as long as you can steal it, you can practice, it's a big deal to use the Taoist qi cultivation method to urge, you go on. Nanfeng said to the fat man.

"When you're done, what are you talking about? By the way, what do you mean, why are you still involved with Taoism?" the fat man looked puzzled.

"The Eight Golden Bodies are the kung fu created by the monks of Middle-earth inspired by the Eightfold Treasure Letter, we can't steal the exercises, we can only steal the Eightfold Treasure Letter, we don't steal yellow rice, but millet, can you understand?" asked Nanfeng.

"Why am I so stupid in your eyes?" the fat man pouted, "You mean that we can't steal ready-made meat, so we can only steal pigs and kill them ourselves." ”

"Yes. Nanfeng nodded, "There are pros and cons to this matter, and the disadvantage is that we have to figure it out ourselves, which will be very troublesome." The good thing is that the exercises we have worked out will be different from the eight golden bodies, and even if you perform them in the future, Foguang Temple will not be able to hold you accountable. ”

"Then we can't steal openly. The fat man nodded.

"Is there anything that steals it?" Nanfeng glanced at the fat man.

"I mean, we can't let them find out when we steal. The fat man said.

"Nonsense, if you get caught, how will you see people in the future?" Nanfeng said, stealing art has been a taboo since ancient times, and it is more shameful than stealing people.

The fat man smiled, got up and went to the ground, put on his shoes and went to the hut.

When the fat man came back, Nanfeng asked again, "For more than a year, has Foguang Temple invited relics?"

"Please, I moved out on the eighth day of the lunar month last year and did a puja, but it was wrapped in yellow cloth, and I couldn't see what was inside. The fat man said.

"How big is the box?" asked Nanfeng, the fat man's words indirectly confirmed his previous suspicion, the eight-part golden body was derived from the eight-fold treasure letter, and the treasure letter was wrapped in cloth because it was worried that outsiders would see the pattern on it.

"It's so big. "The fat man gestured.

"That's not huge. Nanfeng said, judging from the size of the fat man's comparison, the height and width of the Eightfold Treasure Letter were no more than a foot.

"It's not big, but it's heavy, and it's carried by two people. The fat man said, seeing that Nanfeng was puzzled, he immediately explained, "I heard that those boxes are made of real money, and they must be sunk." ”

Nanfeng frowned again, even if it was very light and took it away, it would be very difficult to steal the Eightfold Treasure Letter, and the Treasure Letter would be even more difficult if it was very heavy.

"Sleep, think about it tomorrow. The fat man yawned.

Nanfeng nodded, "You go to sleep first." ”

"I blew the lamp. The fat man pointed to the oil lamp.

Nanfeng nodded again.

The fat man fell asleep, Nanfeng closed his eyes and thought, at present he has no specific method, only some scattered thoughts, the relics are the treasure of Buddhism, always under the strict care of the Foguang Temple, even if they eat, they will be guarded, it will not work to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, this thing is too important, and the tiger away from the mountain will make those monks more alert.

The fewer people there are, the more energetic the caregivers will be, and they have to start when there are many people.

You can't reveal your identity when you do it, otherwise you will leave trouble.

If you want to steal the treasure letter, you have to steal it with the relics, which is too difficult, but close to the treasure letter, it takes longer to rub the pattern or text on it, and you need to carefully consider whether to steal the treasure letter or rubbing.

At the third watch, Nanfeng got up and went out, and he wanted to go to Foguang Temple in person, observe the situation and look for loopholes......
