Chapter 37 Repentance only when disaster comes

The thirty-seventh disaster is to repent, and the Buddha is intolerable.

Qin Ying walked over with steady steps and bowed deeply to them before taking a seat.

Taking a closer look at the two old men at the top of Confucianism, Qin Ying found that their images and temperaments were very different.

Master Fu is over the age of old, but his ruddy face is radiant; Master Falin is just sixty, and he is described as thin and has the feeling of old age.

Seeing Qin Ying coming, Master Fa Lin said slowly: "After all, it is on the secular podium of Daxingshan Temple, and the debate is mainly based on Buddhist scriptures."

His tone was somewhat nonchalant, as if what was about to begin was a casual conversation rather than a debate about the order of the Buddhist path.

"Whatever you want." Master Fu replied loudly.

These two words were clearly sent to the ears of the audience, and Qin Ying's hand in his sleeve couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Mainly Buddhist scriptures...... Mainly Buddhist scriptures......

Qin Ying knew that the violet cabinet contained a lot of carefully framed scriptures, but she hadn't thought of reading those things at all.

In her previous life in the palace, Qin Ying had seen many scenes of Empress Changsun copying scriptures, but she herself never leaned over to see what Niangniang's fly-headed Xiaokai wrote.

――It can be said that Qin Ying knows nothing about Buddhist scriptures.

Now she is sitting on the stage and discussing the advantages and disadvantages of Buddhism with the two. Qin Ying didn't know whose words she was going to follow.

Qin Ying is a person in the Dao Sect through and through, but she is not willing to reveal her identity in public.

Just when she was stunned, Master Fa Lin had already opened the question with the third product of the "Diamond Sutra".

"The Buddha told Su Bodhi. Bodhisattvas Mahasattva. Thus shall they subdue their hearts......"

After reciting the "Diamond Sutra" in his hand word for word, Master Fa Lin coughed and said, "Please solve the problem, Master Fu."

"'The extinction is immeasurable, innumerable, boundless beings. There are no sentient beings who have attained extinction. 'Write first about destroying sentient beings, and then about sentient beings who have no extinction...... Isn't this a contradiction? Master Fu said without thinking.

Then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he lowered his voice and said, "It's too easy to solve the problem, aren't you?"

Master Fa Lin also smiled back, and suddenly raised a somewhat hoarse voice: "Is it also a contradiction to the '**, elephant is invisible' in Lao Tzu's 5,000 texts?"

Master Fu couldn't answer. If he refutes Master Falin's rhetorical question, it is equivalent to dismantling his own platform.

This hand of Master Falin happened to make the two sides point against Maimang. No one took advantage.

Most of the people in the audience were Buddhist believers, and they didn't quite understand the deep meaning of the conversation between the people on the stage, but when they saw the changing expression on Master Fu's face, they felt that he must be deflated.

After a moment of silence, Qin Ying suddenly spoke softly: "Lao Tzu Shuyun: The Tao often does nothing but does nothing. Do nothing, and do nothing. Xisheng is doing nothing, and Dayin is doing everything. ”

She said amazing words in a straight voice, and the two old men beside her couldn't help but look at Qin Ying.

They were all amazed at how this little one, who was less than fifteen, had such a deep insight.

…… In fact, Qin Ying just memorized the silk book that Yuan Laodao gave him.

Master Fa Lin looked at Qin Ying for a long time, and didn't see anything special about him, so he thought: Maybe he came up with this sentence by chance.

And Master Fu didn't think about it so much at all, and slapped his thigh and praised Qin Ying.

After listening to Qin Ying's words to justify the name of Taoism, Master Fu's spirits were much more uplifted, and he continued to find the flaws in the "Diamond Sutra":

"'If the bodhisattva has my appearance. Physiognomy. The appearance of all beings. The longevity of the face. That is, non-bodhisattvas. This sentence first says that a bodhisattva has these four aspects, and then it says that he who has these four aspects is not a bodhisattva. Isn't that a confusion? ”

Master Falin did not back down this time: "Speaking of confusion. Isn't the beginning of Lao Tzu's five thousand texts messy? 'It's a way, it's a very way. The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. β€˜β€

Qin Ying quickly read the content of the silk book in her mind, found a more appropriate sentence and memorized it: "Famous people have white horses and non-horses, and Taoists have common ways and non-Taos." It's just the same thing. ”

She can be an audience without saying a word, but she doesn't want to see Taoism fall behind, so she took the liberty to open her mouth.

"-Whose disciple are you?" Master Falin's lowered eyebrows were raised, and his gaze at Qin Ying became extremely sharp.

Master Pharain knew in his heart that if one was a coincidence, then two times would never be a coincidence.

Qin Ying had nothing to hide under such a gaze, and she stubbornly reported to the door: "Xiaodao Qin Ying." The family teacher's surname is Yuan, and he is the elder of Qingyangfang in Chengdu Prefecture, Yizhou. ”

Abi was eating a candy painting when she was distracted and heard some whispers on stage.

However, she didn't hear clearly, and put her elbow against Mei Sanniang, and said vaguely: "... What did they just say? ”

Mei Sanniang shook her head, twisted the handkerchief in her hand and whispered, "Let's ask her when Qin Ying goes back."

As the old saying goes: The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart.

The conversation between Qin Ying and Master Fa Lin on the stage was all heard by the two people in the southeast corner of the stage.

The young man in the gray monk's robe said to the people beside him: "Li Taishi, you have a rare genius in the Dao Sect."

Li Taishi arched his hand and replied with a smile: "Master Yuan, you Hanlin Academy's geniuses are everywhere."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ each other. After the master finished speaking, he turned his head and continued to watch the vulgar speech.

The position in which they stood together was excellent, and from here they could see all the faces on the stage.

Seeing that there was one more person on the high platform here, Master Yuan said lightly: "Daoxuan Master is here." I am afraid that the geniuses of your Dao Gate will suffer. ”

Li Taishi maintained this smiling face: "Don't be afraid." Blessings and misfortunes lurk, and misfortunes and blessings rely on'. At the end of the words, he sighed again, "Why do the Buddhas have to fight for priority, can't these two families live in harmony like you and me?" ”

Master Yuanyuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Looking at the current situation, what you said is absolutely impossible."

"How could I have been friends with such a serious and boring monk as you for so many years?" Li Taishi pouted.

"Fellowship with me is just a faΓ§ade. Li Taishi, every time you go to Hanlin Academy, you are mainly looking for a hairpin lady......"

The next words were not said by the Yuan Shi, because Li Taishi's index finger had already pressed against the other party's lips.

"Monks can't have an ostomy business. The innocence of me and the hairpin lady is something to learn from heaven and earth. ”

The master snorted with his nose and ignored this person with a face like a wall.

Li Taishi suddenly poked the elm pimple beside him: "Hey, have you seen the pansy on the other side?"

The master nodded in response, "Yes."

He saw Sumire, but there was no reasonable reaction at all...... Li Taishi was completely speechless about this elm pimple belonging to the Buddhist sect.

On the vulgar podium, the Taoist Xuanshi said to Qin Ying after a double plate: "I became a Taoist priest at a young age, and my conversation is still so good. It's a promising future. Shall we make a bet? ”

- Nemesis is coming. The nemesis who scolded himself in "Ancient and Modern Buddhism and Taoism" is here.

Qin Ying said silently in her heart. I'm starting to regret that I've just recklessly come to prominence.

She knew that she had gone up to this high platform, so she couldn't get out and leave lightly. If you want to leave, you can only promise to make a bet with Dao Xuanshi.

Seeing her chin, Dao Xuanshi patted the dust on the hem of her clothes and said, "Take the future as evidence, if you lose, you will obediently convert to Buddhism."

"What if you win?" Qin Ying pretended to be calm and authentic.

He smiled, and this smile was meaningful: "If you win, I will be the east, and I invite you to Longtian Temple for a vegetarian banquet for ten years."

The master of Longtian Temple is Master Falin, and Master Daoxuan and Master Falin are old friends, and it is not a problem for him to invite Qin Ying to dinner.

Qin Ying grinned: "Okay, I'll ask my acquaintances to go there to eat together."
