"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south! Xiaosheng passed by this place and saw that there was a temple that came to make incense." Ouyang Xuan replied softly.

"It's afternoon class, and the donor will have to wait a little while for the incense," said the deacon.

"It's okay, it's okay!".

"Donor, please!" , the deacon monk made a gesture of please.

Ouyang Xuan took two guards and Wei Yu into the monastery with the deacons and monks, and the three guards were on guard outside. At the same time, there are still more than 100 cheetah team members in the mountains and forests who are secretly doing protection duties, this is not China, and there are many variables.

Entering the temple, Ouyang Xuan found that the scale of the temple is not small, the ancient trees in the temple are towering, quiet and quiet, there are bursts of chanting sound in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, reciting the "Great Compassion Mantra", Muyusheng and the chanting sound are intertwined, and this quiet place is very perfectly integrated together. The deacon monk settled Ouyang Xuan at the stone table under the ancient tree in the courtyard, and returned to the front hall to continue to guard.

Two chipmunks weave back and forth between the trees, looking for their food, and the birds and the forest chirp to the sound of Sanskrit, giving people a fairyland feeling. But this kind of artistic conception can be felt in any temple in China, and Ouyang Xuan and the guards do not feel leisurely. According to the Chinese law, monasteries and churches are owned by believers and parishioners in the radiation area, and whether they are newly built or demolished, they must be approved by the believers and parishioners in the radiation, otherwise no person or group has the right to interfere with religious buildings and things. Therefore, religious sites are the safest and most comfortable places in China, and out of the pursuit of beauty, Chinese religious sites are also located in places with beautiful scenery, or the places are dressed up in a quiet and pleasant place.

Ouyang Xuan sat at the stone table and quietly listened to the Sanskrit sound coming from the Buddhist hall, unlike Chinese Buddhism, the Sanskrit in the Central Plains is a blunt transliteration, which is much different from the original scripture, and it is this great compassion mantra, it sounds, there are also many ambiguities. In China, authentic Sanskrit is used, or translated into Chinese.

After a long time, the Buddha hall gradually quieted down, more than ten monks came out of the Buddha hall one after another, and began to clean the Buddha pavilion under the guidance of the host, add oil to the ever-bright lamp, and replace the incense and candle offerings. This is also different from Huaxia, where the temple is dedicated to Buddha statues, without incense candles and offerings, but with everlasting lights. Buddhism in China is still very pure, with Hinayana Buddhism as the main religion and very little Mahayana Buddhism. Because it was not influenced by Confucianism and Taoism, with the cultivation of the mind, morality, cultivation, repentance, and redemption as the core, the religious dross of bribing the gods and praying to the gods has never entered the temples of China. Chanting sutras, worshipping the Buddha, and meditating are for the cultivation of the mind, virtue, and deeds. After the combination of Buddhism and Confucianism and Taoism in the Central Plains, there was a religious dregs of bribing gods and asking for gods.

Just when Ouyang Xuan was in a daze, an old monk came to Ouyang Xuan under the guidance of the deacon monk, clasped his hands together and said: "There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south, the donor is the incense, please inside!" ”。

"Amitabha! There is Lao presiding, Zou Yuan is here to thank you", Ouyang Xuan folded his hands and looked at the old monk in front of him and said. He was dressed in a jute robe, with a string of one hundred and eight Buddha beads of dark brown nanmu on his chest, and a Bodhi bracelet on his hand. He is around fifty years old, with a charitable face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a wide Yin Tang, a square face, and not very high cheekbones.

"Poor monk law number Da Zhu, Zou Shi invited!" , the monk made a gesture of please. Ouyang Xuan followed him, "I don't know if Lord Zou is here to worship the Buddha or ask for help?" On the way, the monk asked.

"Worshipping the Buddha and cultivating the heart, seeking things is just Confucianism and Taoism dregs," Ouyang Xuan replied.

"Worshipping the Buddha is to create karma, to cultivate good causes, to obtain good results, and it is also the way to seek things. Where does it come from? ”。

"Sanskrit says that the Buddha is the philosophy of cause and effect, not God, and the Buddha and Bodhisattva are those who preach the scriptures and preach the Dharma, so how can they be blessed? The worship of the Buddha is the philosophy of the true heaven and earth, not the Holy Spirit. Could it be that the supreme reason of heaven and earth can also protect the evil thoughts in the heart? Ouyang Xuan said unhurriedly.

"Donor, it's wrong. The body of the Buddha is the body of the Dharma, and the body of the Buddha can protect everything and travel to the gods."

"Shakyamuni founded Buddhism, taking the Four Noble Truths as the truth, and later generations mixed with theology, and there were differences in cultivation and law enforcement, so that there is today's theory that the Buddha body is the Dharma body, and there are many schools of Buddhism. Is that wrong? ”。 Ouyang Xuan said with a smile. At the beginning, Fu Hong guided Shakyamuni to create Buddhism, just to let people understand the world and explore the world. Originally, it was intended to allow people to understand the reasons behind them through the appearance of things, and then change the world by eliminating internal causes, and finally to achieve a way to learn to use internal causes, which was the original meaning, and later was further elaborated by Shakyamuni to explain people's birth, old age, sickness and death, poverty and wealth. Fu Hong's theory was summarized into the theory of the Four Truths of Suffering and Extinction. Buddhism was originally intended to encourage people to explore the natural phenomena of the world, but it turned out to be used to restrain people's spirits, and it really made Fu Hong helpless, and later he had no choice but to establish Christianity again to explain the law of living things and the growth of the other, and the result was still used by people.

"Don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense, the Four Noble Truths are the foundation of the scriptures, and all the scriptures have evolved from them. The Buddha said...... "Monk Da Yu was about to continue, but Ouyang Xuan interrupted him with a wave of his hand. "That is, the misunderstanding is not too much to say, Confucius and Mencius should not be confused with Taoist metaphysics and Buddhism."

After speaking, he entered the main hall, took incense and candles, lit them on the ever-bright lamp, and inserted them on the Buddha shrine. With his hands folded, he knelt on top of the futon on both knees, and recited Professor Fu Hong's Great Compassion Mantra and Lengyan Mantra in pure Duliba before he got up to give a salute and withdrew from the Mahavira Treasure Hall.

"I wonder what scripture the donor is reading?" , the monk asked.

"The most primitive mantra of great compassion and strict mantra handed down by the Buddha."

"Does the donor have the right solution?" , Monk Da asked expectantly.

"That is, you can read, you will have it, take pen and ink, and this will be with your book", Ouyang Xuan walked to the stone table unhurriedly and said.

"Sir, but you're from Yinzhou, China?" , Monk Dazhu asked after instructing the monk next to him to get pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

"If you're from India, how can you dress like this?"

"Although the old man has been away from the world for more than 40 years, he has also seen some of the market, the hair of the donor and his entourage is dry, there is no sweat on the forehead under the scorching sun, and the color is very bright and reflective, not like real leather. It's just a hood used by Chinese merchants, but it's just better."

As soon as the words fell, the hands of the two guards and Wei Yu were already on their waists, scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes. They are not afraid of the person in front of them, but they are afraid of hidden arrows, and now Ouyang Xuan has no protection above the neck. And such a well-made hood can actually judge the authenticity through subtleties, this person is by no means an ordinary person, and he is also a person who can enter the cheetah team in Huaxia.

"The presiding officer has a unique vision, and his Buddhist cultivation is also superior, and he can see the cause and effect that ordinary people can't see."

"The donor has won the prize, and the old man is ashamed, but it is just a few subtle images, and the superficial judgment is made," said the monk with a smile after sitting on the stone bench.

"Haha, who is the host tutoring? Where is home? Ouyang Xuan also sat down and asked.

"Lao Qu's ancestral home is Xiaoshan, Zhejiang, and his ancestors were expelled to Changzhou, Jiangsu Province because of the inheritance of Cheng Zhu Lixue, when he was Chinese, and he met Du Yu Zen Master here when he was a child, and learned superior Buddhism. He followed the Zen master to become a monk here, and then respected the master and traveled everywhere. He worked as a novice in Songshan Shaolin Temple for three years, where he was integrated with Chinese Buddhism, but he had nothing to follow, so he returned here and studied Chinese Buddhism from his teacher."

Ouyang Xuan slightly, looked at Da Xuan's hand and said, "The host should also be a practitioner, at least he has practiced stick skills."

"I can't practice in Shaolin Temple, but unfortunately Shaolin is not the Shaolin of the past, but the Shaolin Temple rebuilt by a group of martial arts monks who took the reputation of Shaolin martial arts. It's just that the name is the same, but the ambition is different."

At this time, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone have been prepared, Ouyang Xuan spread out the paper, worked hard to write, and it took less than two hours to write the Chinese translation of the two scriptures, the font is vigorous and powerful, the same word is different, highlighting Ouyang Xuan's calligraphy heritage of two thousand years, integrating the calligraphy of sword calligraphy, Tai Chi, life experience, painting, personal character and many other factors, which is no longer surpassing ordinary people. Especially the sword book, if you don't have a martial arts background, it is almost impossible to write it. The monk was drunk and fascinated, a full thirty-six pages, Ouyang Xuan wrote heartily, and just about to settle the payment after writing, the guard and Wei Yu coughed on the side almost at the same time, "Childe, it's not early, we should go back", Wei Yu said.

"Well, back". Ouyang Xuan wrote casually at the check-in place: Zou Yuan traveled to Huangsangyu, met Ruiyun Temple, and left a book. The date was not written, because Ouyang Xuan did not know how many years the Central Plains was Qianlong. After the ink was dry, he said to the monk Dajiao: "Let the host see and smile, there are some mundane affairs, farewell, if he has a fate, we will see you again."

It took a long time for the monk to come back to his senses, looked at Ouyang Xuan, looked at the guards, and then looked at the handwriting just written, and folded his hands and said, "Amitabha!" The donor is a celestial man, and he understands the heavens. To be able to enter our temple today is the manifestation of the Buddha! After speaking, he knelt on the ground and bowed three times and bowed nine times. The other monks in the temple were a little surprised, and they all looked at Monk Dazhu and Ouyang Xuan.

Ouyang Xuan smiled slightly, "Flat body, that is, the known heavenly machine, the host should know what to do, and what not to do." If he wants to travel in the future, please let the shopkeeper of the West Village grocery store know, and it will definitely make your merits complete! There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south, and Xiaosheng will say goodbye! ”。 After Ouyang Xuan finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the temple under the guidance of the monk Da Yu, and went along the mountain road to the temporary base in the cave in the mountain behind the West Village.

Returning to the stone table, the monk carefully packed up the manuscript and said to the monks who gathered around: "Today's events must not be mentioned to outsiders. Go and take out the remaining nanmu in the storeroom and make a bookcase to encapsulate the manuscript", the more the monk said, the more excited he became, holding the manuscript, he couldn't help himself.

"Host, who is that benefactor? This calligraphy is unparalleled in the world," said an old monk behind him.

"There is no one in the world who is unsurpassed, when I traveled with Songshan, I heard that calligraphy in this world is nothing but the current Chinese emperor, that is, the Buddha's disciple."

"Could it be that someone is here...".

"You can know that I am reconciled, and do not make a noise, and a copy of this manuscript will be used as a text for the morning lesson. The original manuscript is a treasure of inheritance." Monk Dazhu looked at the manuscript and said slowly.

Ouyang Xuan didn't care about this, and after explaining the matter, he took Wei Yu and the guards back to Chang'an directly. The Prime Minister's Cabinet convened and proposed that the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Finance be renamed the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Finance. After many discussions, it was finally decided that the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Finance would be renamed the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Finance, and at the same time, the Ministry of National Defense would be renamed the Ministry of National Defense, and the Ministry of Education would be upgraded to the Ministry of National Education.

In this way, the province became a local regional organization, and on the basis of the three prefectures of the capital and the establishment of the northern prefecture on the basis of Mengzhou, including Shuzhou, Jinzhou, Hanzhou, and Shenzhou, with a total population of 700,000, one seat in the House of Representatives and two seats in the Senate.

Just after Ouyang Xuan finished dealing with the affairs of the court, he got a report from the secret affairs department that the sixteen monks of Ruiyun Temple were all killed, and none of them survived, and Ouyang Xuan's manuscript was missing. According to the report of the secret affairs department, three of the sixteen monks had different heads, one of the heads was missing, and the others were slashed and killed by civilian mountain knives. This was somewhat unexpected by Ouyang Xuan.

rushed to Huangzangyu overnight, but it was surrounded by new recruits of the Qing army. Through the insider's knowledge, the monk Dazhu was assassinated and had a fierce fight before he died. The perpetrators are six monks, and the government is investigating and arresting them.

Now that the government has come forward, Ouyang Xuan can only avoid it for the time being. returned to Chang'an with his manpower, and secretly investigated the matter with the Central Plains Department of the Secret Affairs Department. Half a month later, the officers and men gradually withdrew from the siege. The final investigation of the government's investigation is also inconclusive, but the intelligence of the secret affairs department shows that the attack on Ruiyun Temple is very likely to be committed by the monks of Tianmen Temple not far from Ruiyun Temple, where a group of strange monks have recently come, and they are all warrior monks. Moreover, its presiding monk Mingjue originally had a list in Songshan Shaolin Temple, and worshiped the Fayin monk as a teacher with the monk Dazhu. And this Fayin monk was originally a native of Luoyang, after Luoyang was incorporated into China, he was sent by his parents to the Shaolin Temple of Lotus Mountain in China when he was young, and returned to the Central Plains after completing his studies. During the period of Mingjue monk Yongzheng, he was originally the county magistrate of Tangyin County, full of poetry and books, and had attainments in the four books and five classics. Because of the incident involving Nian Qianyao, he was cut to the people, returned to his hometown of Haozhou, and escaped into the empty door. He traveled to many places to study Zen and Buddhism, and once worshipped the monk of the Dharma seal of Shaolin Temple as a teacher, and was the disciple of the monk of Dazhu. After Ouyang Xuan left, Mingjue had been to Ruiyun Temple, and stayed for three days before returning to Tianmen Temple, and soon after that, Tianmen Temple suddenly had more than ten strange warrior monks, and then there was a tragedy in the temple.

Ouyang Xuan has long been surprised by this kind of murderous behavior, but because of the misfortune caused by himself, Ouyang Xuan still has to intervene. Ordered someone to call a squadron of cheetah members and told them to infiltrate Tianmen Temple to find the manuscript they had written, to find out the real murderer behind the Tu Temple, and the specific origin of the group of warrior monks. Ouyang Xuan only brought Wei Yu and five guards to Huangzangyu again.

"Are you coming? Why do you have to kill people every time? Mrs. Zhou asked angrily.

"I really didn't do it this time, seeing that their understanding of Buddhism is too biased, I just wrote two volumes of scriptures for the monk Dazhu."

"Then why don't you write it for me and let me take it to the coffin ......", said Mrs. Zhou suddenly stopped, looked at Ouyang Xuan, and then nodded again.
