"Little friend, I've heard of your name for a long time, today you come to my Emei Golden Summit, a few of us old guys are overjoyed, please take a seat! This is the new tea that I picked in the early spring of this year, and it has a bit of taste, and you can drink a cup. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

The one who spoke was an old monk with a wrinkled face, white beard and white eyebrows, thin and withered, and there were several old monks over sixty years old next to him, and Zen Master Guanghua was also among them.

This is a guest room of Guangxiang Temple, although Guanghua Zen Master is the presiding abbot of Guangxiang Temple, but today among the great monks, he is not the person with the highest seniority, nor is he the person with the greatest prestige.

The old monk is called Mingde, is the old abbot of Qingliang Temple in Wutai Mountain, these days to visit friends in Jinding Emei to discuss the Tao, and the abbot of several nearby temples have temporarily lived in the Guangxiang Temple, several masters watch the sea of clouds, appreciate the light of the Buddha, worship Manjushri, knock Puxian, talk about the scriptures, and have not yet gone down the mountain. Hearing that Zen Master Guanghua said that Li Feiyang, who wrote "Journey to the West" and "Fengshen Bang", came to worship the mountain, they all had the heart to see each other, especially in "Journey to the West", there is a scripture that is very important to Buddhism, and several people want to find Li Feiyang for verification.

Mingde Zen Master has the highest rank and great prestige, he sat opposite Li Feiyang, and the smile on his face has not been broken since he saw Li Feiyang.

The old monk smiled and said: "Feiyang, the old man came all the way from Wutai Mountain to visit friends in Emei Jinding, and before he went down the mountain, he heard Master Guanghua say that you came to worship the temple, I and a few old friends have been admiring you for a long time, and I have long wanted to see you!" Yesterday I talked about the two books you wrote, but I never thought you would be here today! The so-called broken leg has no chance, there is a fate to see each other, Feiyang, you have a fate with my Buddhism! ”

Li Feiyang saw that he put the word "fate" on himself, and secretly laughed in his heart, "The master said that he was funny, if I have a relationship with Buddhism, wouldn't I cut my hair and become a monk in the future?" I'm the only seedling in my family, so I'm afraid it's not suitable. ”

Master Mingde's hands shook again and again, "How can you become a monk if you are destined for my Buddha?" The so-called seeing nature to become a Buddha, everyone has Buddha nature, where do you have to escape into the empty door to be considered to have a relationship with the Buddha? ”

Li Feiyang said with a smile: "Where did the master see that I am related to Buddhism?" ”

Mingde said: "Where do you still need to see?" A "Journey to the West" has already revealed your Buddha nature to the world! If you don't have a little study of my Shamen Great Sect and a deep understanding of my Buddhism, how can you write a "Journey to the West" that promotes Buddhism? One of them shows that you are really related to my Buddha. ”

Li Feiyang said curiously: "I don't know what it is?" ”

The old monk Mingde said solemnly, "Little monk, we have carefully read the "Journey to the West" you wrote, and the demon subjugation and demon removal in the book are nothing, but Xiaoyou, you wrote an important scripture in the book that my Buddhism has long been missing, and we can't help but pay attention to it!" Originally, we discussed going to Tang City to find you for verification, but now that you are here, it will save us a lot of rush! ”

"Scriptures? Don't know what verse it is? How did I not know? ”

Li Feiyang's mind was racing, and he went through the book "Journey to the West" in his mind, and he already knew which scripture it was, and said, "What the master said is the Heart Sutra?" ”

Mingde clasped his hands together and smiled: "Good, good, you really know it, little layman." ”

Li Feiyang was shocked: "You haven't learned this Heart Sutra? ”

Although Li Feiyang doesn't know much about Buddhism, he still knows a lot about the Heart Sutra, because of "Journey to the West", and because of the classic Buddhist saying "color is emptiness, emptiness is color" in this scripture, Li Feiyang also deliberately looked for a book to understand it very well.

The Heart Sutra is only about 260 words in total, and it was a Buddhist classic in the previous life, and it can be said to be the essence of all Buddhist classics! In the whole Buddhism, this sutra has a very high status, and if you compare the Buddhist scriptures to a person, this Heart Sutra is the heart of this person, and its importance is self-evident.

Such an important Buddhist scripture, and such a short scripture, is missing from this world! How is this possible?

Such an important Buddhist classic, that Buddhist disciple doesn't study it after getting started? Moreover, this text is so short, only about 200 words, there is no possibility that it is missing.

Seeing Li Feiyang's incredible expression, Master Mingde said: "This matter also has to talk about the destruction of the Buddha in the previous dynasty, when the Buddha statue was smashed, the Buddhist scriptures were burned, the monks were returned to the world, and it was forbidden to re-enact the Dharma, and the people could not have Buddhist classics." It is because my Buddhist scriptures can only be passed on by word of mouth, not words. It was not until a hundred years later, when the new dynasty was established, that the children of our Buddhist sect were able to rebuild the temple to worship the Buddha. ”

Speaking of this, Master Mingde sighed and said: "It's just that this oral tradition, a hundred years, after several generations of recitation, this scripture is no longer consistent with the original text, plus there were very few Buddhists who knew how to read and hyphenate at that time, and the scriptures that have been passed down to the present have been biased, even though we are still a little unsatisfactory after several deliberations." ”

Li Feiyang said: "There is still this matter? ”

Master Mingde said: "Otherwise, we wouldn't have seen the Heart Sutra you wrote in the book "Journey to the West", and we would be very surprised. This text is complete and impeccable, much better than the sentences that we have scrutinized on the basis of the records of those who came before us! I just don't know where you got this scripture? ”

Li Feiyang smiled dryly: "I saw it in an old book by chance, so I used it in the book." ”

Master Mingde looked eager, "Oh? Is this book still there? What's the name? ”

Li Feiyang said: "This is what I saw when I was a child, and this book was burned by the guards at that time!" ”

Master Mingde looked regretful, "It's a pity that these sage classics were burned during war, and they suffered another catastrophe in peacetime." ”

Mingde shook his head and sighed, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, you have a deep Buddha relationship, and the scriptures you saw when you were a child are still fresh in your memory, which shows that the Buddha is profound." ”

Li Feiyang said: "I really don't have a deep understanding of Buddhism! I know a little bit about Daomen! ”

It's just that if this is said, it will be too hurtful, I thought about it, and said to the old monk Mingde: "Master, I wrote the book Journey to the West, only because there are Taoist disciples who are embarrassed by me, and I wrote it in a fit of anger. But for me, both Shamen and Taoism are sects that teach people to be good, and I really don't think that the two doctrines are better or worse! ”

Mingde said: "If you don't have deep Buddha nature, how can you write the story of Master Xuanzang learning scriptures from the West?" It's just that what Lao Wei doesn't understand is that you obviously have a good impression of my Buddhism, why did you suddenly change your attitude and write a "Romance of the Gods" that is not good for my Buddhism? ”

Li Feiyang said with a smile: "It turns out that the master asked me if the Heart Sutra was fake, and asked me why I wrote the "Fengshen List" is true!" ”

Mingde said: "Good and good, how dare Lao Qu blame the little layman, Lao Qu is just a little puzzled, you wrote "Journey to the West" because there are Taoist disciples who offended you, so I don't know where the people in my Buddhism can't stand you, so that you recently wrote a "Romance of the Gods"? This book has a bit of a bad influence on my Buddhism, and now it is spreading all over the world, which is really a bit inexplicable to hundreds of thousands of children of my Buddhas! ”

Mingde's words were a bit aggressive, saying that "hundreds of thousands of children feel inexplicable", giving Li Feiyang a feeling of being overwhelming.

Li Feiyang said with a smile: "I am a writer, I only write stories, and I have nothing to do with the righteousness of the orthodox sect, where will the real people in the sect believe my nonsense?" Master, why do you care too much? ”

Mingde said: "It's about the inheritance of the sect, I have to care!" ”

Li Feiyang was a little unhappy: "Master, if other Buddhist disciples come to me to argue because of the book "Romance of the Gods", I can still understand, it is because they do not practice enough and have shallow concentration; But you are a great Buddhist master, why are you still angry about me writing the "Fengshen List"? ”

The Guanghua Zen master next to him interjected; "Feiyang children, you mess with my Buddhist inheritance, but which of our children is not angry?"

Xie Fuzhi, who was beside Li Feiyang, jumped out and said: "It's just a story, you are all famous Buddhist seniors, why are you so serious?" The eldest of my family said that the convergence of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism is the right reason, the story is the story, the sect is the sect, and the two have nothing to do with each other! ”

Mingde clasped his palms together and said: "Good, good, the confluence of Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism and Buddhism is the doctrine of the Zhongnan Quanzhen School, their Taoist theory, what is the benefit of my Buddhism?" ”

Shef's way: "The three sects have factions, and the doctrines are not high or low, Master Mingde, where will there be a situation where one is dominant now?" ”

The thin Master Guanghua said: "The teachings are different, and the Dharma is boundless!" ”

As he spoke, he deviated from the point and became a situation of discussing the three religions of Taoism.

Hearing Guanghua say that Buddhism is boundless, Li Feiyang sneered: "Buddhism is boundless? Don't know what Dharma is? What is boundless? ”

Master Mingde said: "If you want to understand Buddhism, you have to read my Buddhist classics, Feiyang Xiaoyou, you wrote "Journey to the West", you also wrote "Heart Sutra", and also wrote the sentence "Buddhism is boundless", why don't you know the meaning of this sentence now?" ”

Speaking of this, Master Mingde said: "Feiyang Little Layman, we are very grateful that you wrote our long-lost Heart Sutra, but we don't agree with your slander of my Shakya's authentic novel!" ”

Li Feiyang said with a smile: "Why didn't you disagree when I wrote "Journey to the West"? Now that I have written "The Romance of the Gods", you are beginning to oppose it, hehe, it seems that the Buddha also has selfish intentions! ”

Master Guanghua said: "My Buddhism is vast, but it is the only way, where is it as unbearable as it is said in the book Fengshen?" My three major Buddhist scholars, Guanyin, Manjushri, and Fuxian have all been written as Taoist figures, betraying the infamy of abandoning the Tao and becoming a Buddha. ”

Li Feiyang asked, "Could it be that Master Guanghua has now become a Buddha?" Otherwise, how do you know that the Buddha also has fire? ”

Master Guanghua said something wrong, it was difficult to defend himself, he opened his mouth, and he didn't know how to answer.

Mingde glanced at him with hatred of iron and steel, and said to Li Feiyang: "My Buddhism is the authentic sect of Shakya, and the practice of Buddhism is the wonderful way to save people, why should the little layman write an article that belittles my Buddhism?" You must know that the Buddha is heaven and earth, the first world, where is the Taoist door comparable? It is among the three folk religions and nine streams, and there are also first-class Buddhas and second-rate immortals who say this, and the little layman should not mess up his heart and deliberately cling to the Daomen! ”

Mark was also a little unhappy when he heard this, and said to Mingde: "Several masters, our eldest brother often says, green lotus, white lotus, red lotus, the three sects were originally one family!" Master, you are Buddhist monks, you should be committed to the friendship of the three religions, and reduce religious contradictions. ”

An old monk bowed his head and said: "Amitabha, there are good and evil in the Tao, and there are high and low in the law!" ”

Mark said, "Old Abbot, it seems that you think that Buddhism is the only Fa-rectification?" ”

The old monk said: "If you prove the three contempt and three Bodike, it should be higher than the Taoist consummation of great achievements!" ”

Li Feiyang laughed, "There are masters like you in Buddhism, no wonder there have been several major campaigns to exterminate Buddhism in history!" Master, the times are different today, how can there be a reason for one to be the only one? If your obsession is not gone, I am afraid that you will never be able to attain the Three Bodikes! ”
