Chapter 21 On Buddhism and the Path
The next day, the three masters talked about Buddhism, and of course the juniors listened attentively. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info juniors occasionally ask some questions, and the three masters are also patiently answered.
Ye Dong asked: "Master, the deceased Yayi quoted the "Seven Sufferings of Buddhism" to enlighten me, presumably it was you who taught her, Master, right?" Master, you are a Taoist, why do you quote the theories of Buddhism? ”
Chen Yao nodded and smiled, and praised: "You kid has a really good memory. The seven sufferings of Buddhism are birth, old age, sickness, death, resentment, love and separation, and unwantedness. The seven sufferings of Buddhism, in my opinion, are also the seven sufferings of life. ”
Master Jingxin nodded slightly and continued to listen to Chen Yao's details.
Chen Yao said: "The Buddha said that these seven sufferings are the red dust of the world, and to become a Buddha, you must first see through the red dust, that is, first understand these seven sufferings. But how many of the tens of thousands of people in the world can understand the seven sufferings like the meditation master? The reason why people become wicked people, ghosts, demons, demons, and in the final analysis is that they are trapped in these seven whirlpools of suffering, and they can't extricate themselves. ”
Everyone nodded one after another, and listened to Chen Yao again: "Our ancestors founded Buddhism and Taoism to help the world understand these seven sufferings and get rid of the death of reincarnation. Therefore, for all sentient beings, how can they be divided into cultivating Buddhas and cultivating the path? Under the alternation of history, there are many branch schools of Buddhism and Taoism, and if these schools of self-cultivation and self-discipline and the original intention of the people of the world remain unchanged, in the end it will be the convergence of stars and the unity of all streams. ”
The meditation master nodded and said, "Anitabha." ”
The Kongming Dao people also nodded again and again, and said, "What a group of stars gathers and ten thousand streams are one." ”
Ye Dong was enlightened and thanked him from the bottom of his heart: "Thank you, Master. ”
Liang Lingzhi asked again: "Three masters, are those branch schools that have changed their original intentions what ordinary people call the evil monks and demon paths?" ”
The three masters looked at each other and smiled, only to hear Chen Yao reply: "No." If he just changed his original intention, and did not have evil thoughts in his heart and harmed the world, he would just be a mediocre monk and a mediocre monk, and he would not be regarded as a demon monk. You say that, but a bamboo pole knocks out a boatload of people. ”
Liang Lingzhi smiled, and then listened to Xiaobao ask: "The three of them are full of crimes, they must be demons, right?" ”
Nian Xue snorted lightly: "The three of them are big demons. ”
Everyone smiled and continued to listen to the three masters, and they benefited a lot from the teachings of this day and night, including Nian Xue and Zilong.

After bidding farewell to meditation and emptiness, Chen Yao took out a yellowed book from the room and handed it to Nian Xue: "Nian Xue, you follow the method of this book, first improve their breath and skills." ”
Nian Xue smiled bitterly: "Isn't this the method I practiced when I was a child?" Does it still apply now? ”
Chen Yao patted Nian Xue's head lightly: "Of course this applies, you still have to urge a few of them to memorize the mantra and magic spells." There is also the enhancement of physique and courage, and no one is missing. ”
Nian Xue pouted and said, "Dad, aren't these what you should do?" It's all on my head, not to mention that Senior Brother Zilong is here! ”
The Zilong people, who were telling a few people to practice on the side, smiled slightly, but did not answer.
The four of them were also puzzled, and Ye Dong asked, "Master, are you in trouble?" ”
Chen Yao nodded: "As a teacher, there is indeed something to do, this foundation of cultivation, Nian Xue can teach you, I am also very relieved of her, she is your senior sister, before I come back, her words are equivalent to my words, understand?" ”
Nian Xue smiled slyly and looked at the four of them.
The four of them looked at each other, forced by the majesty of the master, and nodded again and again. Ye Dong asked, "What about Senior Brother Zilong?" ”
Chen Yao explained: "Zilong, Wenxing, and Hengxing go out with me to experience and experience, and you can upgrade with more experience." ”
Xiao Bao asked hee-hee, "Then how many of us, when will we be able to follow the master to experience and practice?" ”
Chen Yao soothed: "Cultivation is not an overnight thing, don't be in a hurry, not to mention that you are so smart, one day I am in a good mood, maybe I can take you out to see the world." ”
Several people instantly smiled, and Da Chunle said: "It is estimated that you can be promoted by two levels by walking outside with the master, right?" ”
Chen Yao shook his head: "No, no, no, at least you can be upgraded to three levels!" ”
Nian Xue hurriedly interrupted: "Dad, as soon as the two masters leave, have you regained your nature of fooling around?" Don't spoil them. ”
Chen Yaoyi shrugged: "Eon, let's relax, so that the relationship will be harmonious!" ”
Ye Dong thought to himself: I didn't expect that such a profound master would have such an approachable side, and he was really a master who acted in an unfathomable way.
He raised his thumbs again and again: "Master is right! Awesome! ”
Liang Lingzhi also flattered: "Master is really a master of Taoism, and he doesn't care about these details!" ”
Chen Yao said with a smile: "Learn to learn, live to live, now is life, how easy to come." ”
Ye Dong thought to himself: "Although Master's words are simple, they also contain great truths, it seems that Master not only leads us into the path of cultivation, but also educates us on the way of being a human being. ”
After Nian Xue despised them, she asked, "I was in the hospital a few days ago, and I didn't ask why you suddenly appeared on Shekou Mountain." ”
Chen Yao nodded and smiled: "When you called me that day, I knew that you had encountered a very difficult problem, and then I pushed you a hexagram, and the result was a great omen, I watched the stars at night, and noticed that there was a change in the heavens and the earth in Shekou Mountain, and after weighing it again and again, I rushed back." ”
Nian Xue blamed: "There are other things that are more important than your daughter's life!?" You have to weigh it again!? ”
Chen Yao sighed: "It's all because I calculated that although you were a great omen of evil that day, you were accompanied by a big, three, small and four lucky stars, and there were left and right protectors to help, and you couldn't die." ”
He stroked the back of Nian Xue's head again, and said with a smile: "And my daughter is so good, I believe that you can surrender those three demon paths." If it weren't for the celestial anomaly, I wouldn't have come back. ”
Ye Dong asked, "Master, what you said about one big, three, and four lucky stars, are they the four of us?" ”
Seeing Chen Yao nodded, Liang Lingzhi said again: "Then the left and right protectors are Officer Li and Xiao Li?" ”
Chen Yao replied: "That's right, and you, the big lucky star, have been stabbed three times for Nian Xue, and it's hard for you." ”
Nian Xue lowered her head and smiled: "I want to thank him well." ”
Liang Lingzhi touched the back of his head: "It's also to blame me for not having the ability." ”
Nian Xue raised her head and obstructed: "No, no, but you have the ability, your spirit of sacrificing yourself for others is also a great ability." ”
Chen Yao looked at Nian Xue strangely: "Nian Xue, don't relax your training for him just because he helped you get a knife!" ”
Nian Xue hammered Chen Yao with a punch: "You are almost sixty years old, you are not serious, and you don't look like a master at all!" Don't worry, I'll put all four of them to death. ”
Da Chun was very surprised: "Master, you are almost 60 years old?" Oh my God, I think you're 40 at most!! ”
Xiaobao was stunned: "How can there be 40, at most 30!" Couldn't have been more! ”
Chen Yao smiled: "You two! Everything is good, but there is a little bit of a bad thing, that is, I like to tell the truth too much. Haha, hahaha! ”
Liang Lingzhi whispered to Nian Xue: "Your father is still quite humorous!" ”
One big and one small looked at each other and smiled, very proud.
Ye Dong asked, "Master, did you encounter any major events before you came back?" Speaking out is an eye-opener for us. ”
Chen Yao nodded and smiled: "Just the day before the Lingzhi soul was taken away, I received a request for help from the people of the Empty Ming Dao, the situation was urgent, and the Purple Dragon and they also went with me." ”
The five of them were shocked: "What!?" A person as powerful as the Kongming Daoist also has to ask for help!? ”
Chen Yaori nodded thoughtfully: "Among the three of us, the one with the strongest mana is the Master of Meditation, and Kong Ming and I have our own strengths and weaknesses, and we are on par. ”
He added: "When I received Kong Ming's request for help, I was also a little surprised, thinking that he must have encountered a demon with extremely strong mana. ”
Nian Xue exclaimed: "It's a demon? ”
The four of Ye Dong were indeed lonely about these things, and they couldn't help but ask in unison, "Demon?!" ”
Chen Yao saw that the four apprentices looked confused, so he analyzed: "Ghosts, demons, and demons are three completely different concepts. Ghosts are transformed by the living after death, of course, there are also immortals after death, let's not talk about this first. The reason why a ghost becomes a ghost is because he has not understood the seven sufferings until he dies, so he has worries or evil thoughts, and with care and evil thoughts, ghosts are naturally unwilling to accept reincarnation, which is the reason why most ghosts stay in the world. And those who only care about us and remain in the world are called good ghosts, and those who have evil thoughts are called evil ghosts. You have also seen that the evil ghosts' grudges will deepen day by day, and this will lead to the powerful ghosts that harm people, and the powerful ghosts have much higher mana than the evil ghosts because they have harmed people, so we have to use the Tao to subdue them. ”
Everyone nodded again and again, and Chen Yao said again: "Demon, mana is much more powerful than ghosts, because demons are transformed by human beings, and this creature can be a human being, or it can be an animal that becomes a spirit, I specially explain that the demon made of animals is divided into two kinds, good and evil, one is a good demon, they are a demon made by day and night penance, and the body is disciplined. Speaking of the evil demons transformed by living beings, because they are things in the yang world and have yang energy in their bodies, they can practice the evil art of the world the day after tomorrow, turning the power of living people, animals, and even ghosts into their own use, so as to obtain yin energy, quickly improve their mana, and after hundreds or even thousands of years of cultivation, they will become demons. The evil art they practice is to harm others and benefit themselves, and the heart is not right, and the evil is born from the heart, so the demon is often more sinister and cunning than the ghost, and the yin and yang kill each other, and do all evil. ”
Liang Lingzhi asked, "The human snake that was eliminated by the master that day is also a demon, right?" ”
Chen Yao said: "That's right, she is also a demon, she became a spirit from a snake, and then cultivated from a spirit to a demon." The demon made of animals cannot come out to bring harm to the world, which is why I killed her that day. ”
Nian Xue was annoyed: "That stinky snake is so powerful, we almost died in her hands." ”
Chen Yao said with a smile: "She has been cultivating for at least eight hundred years, and it is very good that you can take her three moves." ”
Xiaobao asked, "Then according to what Master said, isn't that demon so powerful?!" ”
Chen Yao recalled: "Indeed, the demon is really powerful. According to the "Shangjing Dafa", there are ten kinds of demons, and I will tell you about them in the vernacular. ”
He took a sip of tea and said, "Demons, lead people astray." Those who fail to understand the seven sufferings have demons in their hearts, and all the evil thoughts in the human heart can be used by demons. You can imagine how powerful a person who can use his own demons to manipulate the power of the demons in the outside world is. ”
Ye Dong exclaimed: "There are still such people? Wouldn't his demons swell to the extreme!? ”
Chen Yao nodded and said, "That's right, this kind of demon madman with unfathomable mana is a human demon who is a human demon who is a disaster in the world. ”
Ye Dong muttered, "It's really chilling to think about it. ”
Chen Yao said again: "Demons are the hegemons of the underworld, and their mana is naturally unfathomable. ”
Liang Lingzhi asked, "What are the gods and demons?" ”
Chen Yao sighed and said, "Gods and demons are the gods who have fallen into the demon path. ”
Everyone couldn't help sighing, and heard Chen Yao say again: "I received Kong Ming's request for help that day, so I rushed to help, it turned out that he went to subdue the night demon and was trapped in the mountains. It took a lot of effort to get him out, and then the two of us worked together to finally bring the night demon to its knees. ”
A few masters and apprentices, you asked me and answered, and the time passed quickly.
Chen Yao has been out for a few days, and Ye Dong and the four of them are following Nian Xue to carry out all kinds of special training, meditating and refining qi in the morning and evening, going to exercise their physique during the day, and at night, it is time to practice their courage. But what they didn't expect was that this night's outing would lead to a new chapter in the story.
