After hearing this, Shen Gui frowned, and then looked at this 'Chiwu civil official' who seemed to be greedy for life and afraid of death, but was actually quite scheming.

Although what he said seems reasonable, it is also a 'self-contradictory' statement.

If the offering of the red crow was really an ordained monk, then it would be impossible for him to be tainted with the smell of alcohol; And if the other party is still a middle-aged monk, then it is even more impossible to only suffer the 'three precept scars'!

Although Shen Gui is the current great protector of shamanism, he still has some understanding of the many rules in the Shamanism. In fact, in the birthplace of Buddhism, the country of Chanda, and even different branches and schools in various places, there is no such ritual rule of 'taking the ordination of incense', and this kind of almost self-harming ordination is the 'original' rule of Zen Buddhism in the Huayu continent. Whether it is Mahayana Buddhism practiced by Nanlin Zen Buddhism or Theravada Buddhism practiced by Nanquan Zen Buddhism, all Huayu believers who are "related to the Buddha", whether they practice at home or enter the temple to cultivate, will perform such "top incense" gifts to show a sincere heart.

Although it is the same as 'top incense ordination', it also contains different meanings depending on the number of ring scars. Among the Zen rules prevailing in the Huayu Continent, there are one precepts, two precepts, three precepts, six precepts, nine precepts, and twelve precepts.

All lay Buddhists who lead the practice can only suffer two precepts in their lives. Moreover, it is not possible to take the ordination at the top like the great monks, but only on the wrists of the hands or at the wrists of the arms. Generally speaking, Buddhist believers receive their first vows at a young age, usually on their left arm, called 'pure heart', and if they still worship the Buddha sincerely and are able to pass the 'lay sutra' held at the temple, they are eligible to add the second vow to the wrist of their right arm, called 'Le Fu'.

And if a layman who has received the two precepts is favored by a great monk and is willing to devote himself to Buddhism, he is qualified to hold a shaving ceremony, raising the precepts on the top, and the name is 'shaving'; only a monk with three precept scars on his head can be called a 'novice', which is also a symbol of the status of a Buddhist disciple.

When the practice of the 'three precepts' has reached a certain level, if one can successfully pass the 'examination' within the temple and can be recognized by the ten 'monks of the six precepts', then one can add three more precept scars, and this ceremony of 'receiving the six precepts' is called the 'bhikshu vows'; that is, only the Buddhist disciples who carry the six precepts on their heads officially have the status of 'monks'.

And it is worth mentioning that only the monks of the six precepts who have the status of monks are eligible to receive the list issued by the 'Monk and Taoist Division' of the imperial court, and officially become a 'serious monk' officially recognized by the Northern Yan Dynasty!

After holding the precepts for five years, the monks of the six precepts can leave their own teachers and temples, go to temples all over the world to make orders, and debate the scriptures and learn the Dharma with the great monks; Since you want to travel the world, you naturally need the road guidance and customs defense issued by the imperial court as a basis; In this way, the seemingly useless 'list degree' can be used even if it comes in handy.

If you want to go further and 'take the nine precepts', you don't need to pass some kind of exam, and it is often after you have learned something and are jointly elected by no less than ten high-ranking monks of the nine precepts, and can also 'transform' into a temple on your own, so that you can take the nine precepts, and then become the abbot of a temple to promote the Dharma for one believer.

Of course, under certain conditions, when a great monk who has received the nine precepts passes away; If it can be recognized by no less than ten temple abbots and monks, it is eligible to receive three more precepts on the top of the body's head, a total of 12 precept scars, which is the 'Bodhisattva vow'. After the body of a great monk who has received the 'bodhisattva vows' is cremated, he often leaves behind the 'vajra relics' that represent the Dharma, merit, cultivation, compassion, and wisdom.

But now, according to what this person said, if the middle-aged 'monk' is only taking the three precepts, then he is clearly just a 'little novice', how can he be qualified to place an order in the foreign travel party? I can't even get out of the temple gate, how can it appear near Yanshan County!

So, Shen Gui shook the sharp blade in his hand again and pressed it tightly against the other party's throat; At the same time, the wrist was gently dragged outward, and a shallow wound was cut on the other party's throat......

"If you take the novice ordination, you are a monk. All Huayu Shimen believers, whether they are monks at home, will never break the abstinence of drinking, who in the world does not know about this matter? Looks like you really want to see how hard your neck is......"

After finishing speaking, Shen Gui flipped his wrist and put the Thunder Sword on the fresh wound again......

"Grandpa spares his life! The villain really didn't say half a lie! The conscience of heaven and earth...... What the villain sees and knows, he has already told his grandfather, even if you persecute the villain, what you say is all nonsense! If you like to listen to stories, the villain will tell you enough! But if grandpa wants to listen to the truth, then the villain really doesn't have half a word! ”

This person was panicked, and he didn't care about the thunder sword that was still on his neck, and he tore open his throat and kowtowed desperately to Shen Gui with tears and tears; Before he could knock a few times, his forehead had been ground by the sand and stone on the ground, and his flesh was blurred, which made people look so pitiful......

Shen Gui looked at his miserable appearance, and he actually believed eighty percent in his heart: But if what this person said is true, then that 'monk worship' may really be just a 'three-precept novice'!

"That's it, don't knock again! Let me ask you, at this moment, in this courtyard, how many people are still alive? ”

When the bloodied 'civilian' heard this, he felt that he might still have a 'delay', so he immediately raised his head and replied very quickly:

"Back to grandpa, if you can still breathe, only our 'grandfather and grandson' are left!"

"Oh? What about the Jianghu people who were escorted a few days ago? ”

"If you go back to grandpa, you will already be served by the worship lord early this morning......

After Shen Gui was silent for a long time, he squatted down and patted his face:

"Good grandson, you can sleep for a while, grandpa has other things to do!"

After saying a word, Shen Guili turned his palm into a knife and slammed it on the other party's neck artery! With this hand knife, Shen Hui returned a little more force, presumably he, the 'godgrandson' he had just recognized, after waking up from the coma, at least for half a month, his neck could not turn as usual!

Of course, although Shen Gui spared his life, he did not fully trust his 'confession', and he carefully explored all the corners of the courtyard before leaving this small courtyard. Judging from the results, his 'godgrandson' who fell asleep with a smile on his face not only has an extremely strong desire to survive, but also can be regarded as a 'good person'.

After leaving the small courtyard, Shen Gui, who was wearing a night suit, quickly walked through the biting winter night. According to the contact code that he was already familiar with when he was young, Shen Gui didn't have much effort, and he had already followed Qi Yan and the 'Three Rings Shami'.

Judging from the trivial voice coming from the front, it seems that his brother Qi Yan is leading the 'wine and meat monk' to worship, and he keeps circling in the dense forest!

Judging from Qi Yan's posture in the past, as long as he is not blocked in a dead end, there are few people in this world who can catch up with this closed disciple of Chu Zhi; And those who can catch up with Qi Yan, even if they add a Shen Gui, combined with the strength of the two brothers, they will definitely not be opponents of others. And the reason why Shen Gui dared to delay so far is precisely because he has this confidence in his heart......

"Little thief, don't take the Buddha in circles! What the hell did you steal, can't you show the Buddha? If it's not very valuable, the Buddha will let you go! Look at this ghost weather, counting nine in the middle of winter, there is still a north wind, let's go back to our respective homes and sleep on a high bed with a warm pillow? ”

When he got a little closer, Shen Gui heard an extremely rough voice. Presumably, it was the 'wine and meat monk' who was summoning Qi Yan with rhetoric; And Qi Yan also adheres to the snitch's good 'professional habit' - never speak.

According to the laws of the Northern Yan Dynasty, anyone who trespasses into a private house or steals property will be punished as 'burglary', and the stolen funds will be confiscated and sentenced to three years in prison. Therefore, whenever the snitch shows his true face in front of his own family, and is caught by mistake, even if he is beaten until he only has half a breath left, he definitely does not 'hum' out of pain!

Now listening to the tone of this 'wine and meat monk', you know that he must have said all the good and bad things; But Qi Hui didn't respond to anything at all, except for taking him around in circles......

"Hey I say! What the hell did you take? If it's not worth much silver, why don't you give it back to others? After all, this stealing monk and stealing the way is a taboo for the people of the rivers and lakes! ”

At this time, Shen Gui was already sitting on a big tree on the road that the two of them had to pass, his legs were swinging back and forth, and he was shouting at the oncoming Qi Yan with his eyebrows and eyes......

As soon as these cool words came out of his lips, the 'wine and meat monk' immediately made a 'sudden brake' and stood in place. That extremely heavy body actually plowed out two furrows in the forest land! At this time, he was looking left and right vigilantly, and at the same time, he pulled out a ring knife from his back, cautiously guarding against a sneak attack......

"Amitabha! Tonight, the north wind is howling, the cold wind is cold, and the bones of the sprinkled family have long been frozen! Dare to ask this benefactor, is there any surplus of liquor on his body at this time? ”

After snatching the white sentence, Shen Gui, who was dressed in black, folded his hands and did a somersault straight, and landed in front of the wine and meat monk in all directions; And Qi Yan, who jumped out of most of his body, raised his waist upward, and after turning a dexterous heel in mid-air, he sat in Shen Gui's position, looking leisurely ready to watch the play......

What a 'Southern Flying Goose'! In the dark night forest where you can't see your fingers, you have been going around in circles with a master for so long, and now you don't even have a red face and a beat, and you don't even take a breath of air, you really deserve to be Chu Zhi's closed disciple!
