013 Wine and Meat Monk
"Senior Brother Chen, what do you think of this matter?" After Li Yuanbai walked away, Bodhizi took the initiative to ask Chen Tianhua and wanted to consult his opinion. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"There are pros and cons, although our faction can gain great benefits by forming an alliance with the Tang Dynasty Mansion. But once the Tang Dynasty Mansion is really replaced by the Sword Gate, once the strength of our faction is liquidated, I am afraid that there will really be no need to mix in Dongsheng Shenzhou in the future. (Dongsheng Shenzhou is basically ruled entirely by the Tang Dynasty.) ļ¼
"Yes, the king is defeated and the king is indeed reasonable!" After listening to Chen Tianhua's opinion, Bodhi Zi fell into deep thought. And I kept thinking about falling asleep, but I still didn't think of any good ideas. So I had to go to bed first.
There was nothing to do overnight, and because Zheng Xingwang had already chartered all the consumption of Bodhi Zi in Tianyi Restaurant, and also said that Bodhi Zi would bet a few days if he wanted to stay for a few days. So Bodhizi unceremoniously decided to take Chen Tianhua and Bai Yun to settle here.
And Bodhizi, who couldn't make up his mind for a while, would first go to find the location of the Fire Cloud Immortal to see if he would be entrusted by the Emperor of Heaven to do a very troublesome matter.
In this way, Bodhizi explained that Chen Tianhua and Bai Yun were allowed to move freely, and then went out alone.
It's just that when he just went down to the first floor, he heard a deafening voice: "Little Er, serve wine and meat to the sprinkler!"
Then Bodhi Zi followed the voice and looked over, and saw a very large monk?
That's right, it's a monk! Although Bodhi Zi is a little far away, he is wearing a monk's robe, and his head is bald and has the characteristics of a ring scar, but he will not look away. So this big guy is a monk, and he is also a monk of wine and meat.
But what surprised Bodhi Zi was that this monk's realm was not much lower than him, and he was also a real master of the Ascension Realm.
And although this big man looks like a middle-aged uncle in appearance, his muscles are no different from a twenty-year-old strong man, and he doesn't look like a monk chanting sutras and chanting Buddha.
However, this is not unusual, because except for those who have taken the Zhuyan Pill, almost all monks will preserve their appearance almost forever at the moment of successful ascension, and will only age rapidly when their life span is at the end of their life.
So in this world, it is a mistake to judge the age of a monk by one's appearance.
It's just that this monk came here early in the morning to drink wine and eat meat, which really attracted the attention of Bodhizi.
"Could it be that the Huasheng Temple also has this kind of monk who specializes in physical cultivation?" Because he thought that this was Chang'an, and the Huasheng Temple was nearby, combined with this person's not low realm, Bodhizi's first reaction was to think that this person was a disciple of the Huasheng Temple.
Then driven by curiosity, Bodhi Zi unconsciously walked to the monk's side, and said politely: "Poor Dao Bodhizi, I don't know what to call this master's Dharma name?"
It's just that this monk replied very casually: "My name is Jiese, I don't know what is the matter with you, a Taoist priest, looking for me?"
After seeing that the precept color was so casual, Bodhizi no longer made it so serious, but sat directly opposite the precept color.
"It's nothing, but I'm a little surprised that you've been here early in the morning to call for wine and meat. Aren't you Buddhists not allowed to drink wine and eat meat? Aren't you afraid of being punished by the people of the Discipline Institute in your temple?" Bodhizi asked curiously.
"What's this? I have a law name to quit sex, so just quit women. As for the other precepts, what does it have to do with my precepts?" explained with a powerful reason, and it really made Bodhi Zi very light.
"Besides, as the so-called wine and meat pass through the intestines, the Buddha stays in his heart. Besides, I eat this wine and meat so that my body can be stronger, and then I can better protect the temple, who said that those clear soups and lack of water are not enough for my stomach? So I think the Buddha will not blame me. ā
But speaking of which, he has been a monk for so many years, and although he has never stopped drinking and meat almost every day, he really hasn't broken any other precepts. Especially about the color ring, he really didn't think about it, and it was indeed worthy of his Dharma name.
It's just that Bodhizi, who knows the last two sentences of those two famous sayings, neither thinks that this is a fallacy like ordinary people, nor does he simply think that the precept is right and learn from him, but says seriously: "If the world learns from you, it will be like entering the devil's way." The master is really in a good realm!"
Bodhizi's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, which directly made the precept color that was still smiling and waiting for Xiao Er to bring the wine and meat to him become serious, "The poor monk is an ordinary disciple of the Huasheng Temple. ā
"To tell you the truth, I've been eating wine and drinking meat for hundreds of years, and I don't know how many times I've said it. But I have never received such an evaluation as the Taoist today, and you are a master!"
In the face of such a serious introduction and praise of the precepts, Bodhi Zi could only introduce himself seriously again: "Poor Dao Bodhizi, from Fangcun Mountain in Xiniu Hezhou, is not still the sect master of Fangcun Mountain. Therefore, I hope that the master will teach me. ā
"Fang Cunshan, how come I seem to have heard of a name somewhere, but I can't remember it?"
However, although Jiese did not get along with what kind of sect Fang Cunshan was, he never put on a stand from the sect, but talked with Bodhi Zi very respectfully.
Soon, Xiao Er also brought up the wine and meat ordered by the abstinence. And originally wanted to go out to buy some snacks for breakfast, but after meeting such an interesting person as Jiese, I ate with him here by the way. So Bodhizi asked Xiao Er to serve him a few buns casually.
Then, Bodhi Zi took a piece of meat ordered by the ring and ate it.
"Hey, I said, what did you say before, aren't you afraid of falling into the devil's path by doing this?"
But Bodhizi's face is not thin, and he doesn't care and says: "We Taoists don't quit drinking and meat, this is the rule of your Buddhism, so what do I have to be afraid of as a Taoist?"
Speaking of Taoism and Buddhism in this world, in fact, they can no longer be regarded as two ordinary schools, but the two largest schools.
According to incomplete statistics, among all the sects in this world, Taoism and Buddhism account for more than sixty percent. It can be seen how extensive the influence of these two genres is.
Although the number of Taoist sects is slightly more than the number of Buddhist tickets, in terms of the total strength of these sects, there is still little difference.
However, it is worth mentioning that there is no essential struggle between Taoism and Buddhism in this world. There is never a fight over who is the number one school in the Three Realms.
So this is also the main reason why Bodhi Zi and Jiese, this Taoist priest and a monk can sit together and eat and chat calmly.
