Chapter 184: Misinterpreting the Doctrine

When the old man Qingfeng said this, he stopped saying a word, and just stared at Lotte, which meant very obviously, that is, to let Lotte tell him the Buddhist teachings he knew.

Of course, Lotte understood what he meant, so he said: "Senior, I don't know what the purpose of Buddhism was originally envisioned by your grandfather, so I'll tell you what I know, and compare it with yourself, right?" ”

Under the expectant gaze of the old man Qingfeng, Lotte slowly thought about the Buddhist teachings he knew, and began to say: "First of all, the Buddha warned us not to kill, but to eat vegetarian, otherwise there will be retribution in the next life!" ”

"What?"

As soon as Lotte said a word, he was interrupted by the old man Qingfeng, but he asked in surprise, "What did you just say?" Can't kill? Vegetarian? Oh my God, when did I say anything like that? No wonder Master Zu scolded me, his old man likes to eat meat the most!

This Shakyamuni, I clearly said that I can't kill people that day, when did I want him to be a vegetarian? Alas, it's my sin that everyone can't eat meat for hundreds of years! ”

Lotte was stunned when he heard this, thinking to himself, could it be that you didn't learn Tianzhu well, and said that you can't kill people as you can't kill? As a result, the monks who were harmed have no meat to eat since then, and it is indeed a great sin!

The old man Qingfeng saw that Lotte was in a daze, and immediately urged him to continue. Lotte continued: "Buddhism advocates the equality of all beings, there is no distinction between high and low, and any life is the same in the eyes of the Buddha, what pigs, horses, cows, sheep, birds, animals, what monarchs, ministers, fathers and sons, all are equal!" ”

This time, the old man of Qingfeng jumped up directly when he heard this, and shouted incredulously: "What? When did I sue him for the equality of all beings? How is this possible? Can immortals be as equal as mortals? Can humans be equal to animals? Will Master Zu be equal to me? This Sakyamuni is just nonsense!

I can swear that I have never said such a thing to him, this equality of all beings is definitely made by himself, but he has made me miserable!

All beings are equal? Hum. It's really funny, could it be said that Master Zu is equal to his mount? Could it be that in the future, Master Zu will go out and let the mount ride on his old man, and he will be the mount? Otherwise, how can it be called equality? ”

When Qingfeng said this, he suddenly remembered another question, and immediately asked: "By the way, that Shakyamuni, does he have a mount when he goes out by himself?" ”

Lotte thought for a moment and replied, "It seems that there is, right?" ”

The old man Qingfeng immediately shouted indignantly: "Doesn't he want equality? Why do you have to sit on a mount when you go out? Didn't he himself have long legs? Can't he come down and walk himself? Why didn't he use his mount as a mount? ”

Lotte thinks about it and thinks that what Qingfeng said is also right, since everyone is equal, why do you want to run on other people's bodies, Buddha? Lotte remembered what he had seen during his previous trip to India, and it seemed that the Buddha was not the only one who had a mount. But every bodhisattva has a mount, even Guanyin Bodhisattva is no exception! If this is the case alone, I am afraid that even the Buddha himself could not give a reasonable explanation for the so-called "equality of all beings", right?

The old man Qingfeng said angrily: "Go on, you go on!" ”

Lotte closed his eyes and thought about it, and said, "It seems that Buddhist followers can't get married yet, and I can't remember the rest, you know, I'm not a Buddhist." ”

The old man nodded and said, "Well, I told him that I can't get married." But I didn't say that everyone can't get married, only those who have received the true transmission of Buddhism can't get married, and if all the followers can't get married, then everyone will die in a few decades. Who else believes in Buddhism? ”

Lotte Xin said that you don't know yet, there are really few people in India who believe in Buddhism! Maybe the emergence of this situation is not unrelated to the few errors that Qingfeng just said, right?

Qingfeng was sulking for a while, and suddenly said to Lotte: "Young man, don't you want to use my tree to cultivate?" Then will you promise me a condition? If you promise me. How about I immediately hand over all my essence, that is, the Yuan Force you said, to you?

Hey, you just said that you want to use my Yuan Power to cultivate? Who are you? Why do you know to absorb Yuan Force to cultivate? ”

Lotte asked strangely when he heard this, "Senior." Have you heard of the Yuan Power of my cultivation? ”

Qingfeng nodded and said, "I suddenly remembered that the master said one thing back then, he said that he had a little uncle who practiced a strange exercise, which can absorb the power of all things!" It's just that this little uncle suddenly disappeared later, and no one knows where he went. I'm still the first person to meet a person who cultivates Yuan Li over the years, so what do you have to do with the little uncle that my master said? ”

Lotte suddenly said with some excitement: "My master calls himself a mixed yuanzi, I don't know if my predecessors have heard of it?" ”

Qingfeng was shocked when he heard this, and said in a lost voice: "What? You turned out to be the apprentice of the mixed yuanzi? Then, don't I want to call you uncle? ”

Lotte asked strangely, "Why did the seniors say that?" ”

Qingfeng replied: "I once heard Shizun say that his missing uncle is the Dao Number Mixed Yuanzi, and Shizun's uncle is my uncle and ancestor, and now since you are a disciple of my uncle and ancestor, of course I want to call you Uncle Shi!" ”

Lotte hurriedly smiled and said: "Senior, although I am an apprentice of Mixed Yuanzi, I have only obtained his inheritance, not his personal disciple, so you don't have to be so clear with me." ”

Qingfeng refused to agree, and said, "How can that be done?" Regardless of whether you are a personal disciple of Shi Shuzu, you are always his disciple, right? If I am disrespectful to you, am I disrespectful to the teacher? ”

Lotte didn't want to dwell on this topic with Qingfeng anymore, he smiled and said: "Senior, let's not talk about this, you just said that you want me to promise you a condition, why don't you come and hear it?" ”

Qingfeng nodded and said, "Uncle Shi, you can't call me a senior anymore, just call me Qingfeng." As for the condition I just mentioned, it's the same thing, just now after listening to what you said about the purpose of Buddhism in the world today, I know that I really messed up the things that my ancestor explained, and I regret it very much!

So I want to ask Uncle Shi to promise me to snatch the position of the heir of Shakyamuni's Buddhism and spread the Buddhist teachings of my ancestor again, I don't know what Uncle Shi wants? ”

Lotte was taken aback when he heard this, and said in his heart, what are you kidding? I was asked to snatch the Buddha's seat, I'm impatient, right?

Lotte hurriedly shook his head like a rattle and said, "Qingfeng senior, you can spare me." How could I possibly compete for a seat with the Buddha? Isn't that looking for death? Besides, I don't even know where his old man is, how can I rob him? ”

Qingfeng asked strangely, "Uncle Shi, why don't you know where he is?" Don't you report to Kunlun Mountain Yaochi once a year? Haven't you seen him in Yaochi? ”

Lotte was shocked again when he heard this, and looked at Qingfeng and said, "Qingfeng senior, what did you say?" How can I go to Kunlun Mountain every year? Who rules? ”

Qingfeng explained as a matter of course: "Of course it is the regulations of Heavenly Court, all the great and small immortals under Heavenly Court and their disciples have to go to Kunlun Mountain Yaochi to gather once a year, this is a rule passed down by Heavenly Court for hundreds of thousands of years, Uncle Shi, you don't even know?" ”

Lotte shook his head and said, "I really don't know, I haven't even heard of it!" ”

Qingfeng looked incredulous and asked, "Have you ever heard of it?" How is this possible? Teacher. Where is your current cave? Has your land never visited you? Didn't he tell you about the Heavenly Court? ”

Lotte asked suspiciously, "Dongfu?" Land? Qingfeng senior, do you want to talk about the land lord? After Lotte asked, he naturally remembered the old man who often appeared in the TV series "Journey to the West" to deliver food to Tang monks and apprentices, and couldn't help but laugh secretly.

Qingfeng hurriedly said: "What land lord?" In front of ordinary mortals, he is the lord of the land, can he still be regarded as a lord in your uncle? Yes, I'm talking about him, why didn't he go to your cave to explain the rules of the Heavenly Court? ”

Lotte said with a smile in his heart: "But where is the land lord now?" That's all legend! ”

Qingfeng asked in disbelief, "How is it possible?" How can there be no land? Something of legend? Then let me ask you, my master Tongtian Sect Master, his old man, uncle, you always know, right? ”

Qingfeng looked at Lotte expectantly, but Lotte shook his head and said, "I really haven't heard of this." In fact, there is no immortal in sight outside now, Qingfeng senior, you are the only immortal I have seen since I cultivated! ”

Hearing this, Qingfeng suddenly shouted loudly: "Impossible! I've only been beaten down for a few hundred years! How could there be no news of my master? And my grandfather, who has supernatural powers, how can no one know? You must be lying to me, right? ”

Lotte could only persuade with good words: "Qingfeng senior." I really didn't lie to you, maybe these immortals you said are living well in a place I don't know, but we secular people really don't know where they went? Now that mortals have landed on the moon, it is also desolate. What kind of fairy Chang'e, I haven't even seen a shadow at all! ”

Lotte's words made Qingfeng stunned instantly, and he said to himself, "How is it possible? How is this possible? Master, they all don't know their whereabouts. So what do I do? I said why didn't the master come to save me for so many years, it turned out that they were all missing! ”

Lotte said to Qingfeng: "Senior, you see that I can't complete the condition you just said, I really can't find where the Buddha is!" Why don't you change the conditions? ”

Qingfeng suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "Change the conditions? What other conditions? I told you that the conditions were just to make up for my mistakes, and I wanted to return to the master's command again, but now that you say that they don't know their whereabouts, then what's the point of me talking about these conditions? ”

Lotte stopped talking when he heard this, indeed, Qingfeng had been trapped here for hundreds of years, and it was his greatest wish to be able to go back, but now it seemed that even if he could get out of the tree, he would be homeless. This situation makes Lotte how to negotiate terms with him?

Qingfeng suddenly burst into tears, he was just a boy back then, he only learned a little bit of the master's fur, he has survived here for hundreds of years, and he is about to come to the end of his life, these days he is holding on to the belief that he can return to the master!

Originally, he still had a trace of fantasy in his heart to be able to go back, but now that his wishes were shattered, Qingfeng suddenly felt sad and couldn't help crying!

Lotte Zheng didn't know how to persuade, Qingfeng suddenly said: "Uncle Shi, I'll send you out, my life has come to an end, and this place is about to collapse!" If you have the chance to see my old man, Uncle Shi, you will trouble you to bring a message for me, and say that Qingfeng I miss his old man every day! ”

As soon as Qingfeng finished speaking, Lotte found that he had come to the cave, and before he could make any decisions, the cash cow in front of him had begun to dim, and soon the whole tree began to die, and finally all the gold coins and everything disappeared, leaving only a dead old tree standing in front of Lotte!

Lotte obviously felt that Mu Yuanli around him was disappearing sharply, but unfortunately he couldn't do anything about it, he could only watch it die! (To be continued......)
