"Amitabha, good, good!"

Hearing this, the smile on Zhixuan's face suddenly dimmed, and he sighed lowly, then he folded his hands and bowed slightly to Xingxing, and said in a deep voice: "Thanks to Gongzi, everything is fine with the old man, but it's a pity that Yingzen Temple!" Saying that, Ji Hyun sighed again, gloomy and sad.

I couldn't help but be silent when I heard this, Yuwen Yong did the thing of destroying the Buddha, and Zhixuan, as the leader of the Buddhism, naturally suffered a lot. Compared with three years ago, Jihyun looks a little thinner, his jaw has become smooth and slippery, and his original snow-white beard is gone.

"I guess it's to avoid the wanted pursuit of the Northern Zhou!" Thinking so in his heart, he comforted: "The master doesn't need to be so sentimental, everything in the world, whether it is flowers and trees, or mountains and seas, how can there ever be eternal? As long as the master has a Buddha in his heart, my Buddha is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. ”

Zhixuan's whole body was suddenly shocked, as if he had been struck by lightning, and his eyes with the vicissitudes of life suddenly burst out with two rays of light that were like substances, brilliant as stars, sharp as sharp swords, so that everyone who was close to him felt that his eyes were burning in an instant, and it was not until the immortal true qi in his body was running that the discomfort was resolved.

"As long as there is a Buddha in my heart, my Buddha is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, where is the practice different? Hahahaha, the old man has been practicing for decades, and he claims that there is no less than anyone who has taught Buddhism, but today he realized that the past few decades have been so muddy! After a while, the dazzling light in Zhixuan's eyes disappeared, and he said with a smile and a sigh, the expression on his face kept changing.

After hundreds of years of vicissitudes, the development of the hundred schools of thought is different from the past. Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism are integrated into the culture of the Chinese nation, in the blood, even if Yuwen Yong destroys the Buddha with iron and blood, he can demolish the temple and force the Shamen disciples to return to the world, but how can he cleanse people's hearts, and how can Buddhism be completely extinct?

As for the other theories, although they are not powerful, their ideas have gradually been integrated into Chinese culture, but the once pure schools have now transformed into huge underground power organizations, and what they seek is no longer a simple academic idea of governing the country and benefiting the people, but more of luck and power for development and growth.

In the past, Zhixuan refuted the Confucianism and Taoism several times, and even the famous Yu Wenyong respected him.

Although years of war and turmoil have allowed Buddhism to flourish, it has not been too much, and the expansion of Buddhism has also brought great disadvantages to this society, and the most important thing is that its existence threatens the imperial power and restricts the development of the country. In the end, Yu Wenyong dared to risk the disapproval of the world, subdued Zhixuan with imperial power, and issued an order to abolish Buddhism and Taoism. That's what the so-called boom and bust is.

Although Yu Wenyong issued an order to destroy the Buddha, he did not take drastic measures against Zhixuan, who was an important and respected person in the Buddhist sect. The destruction of the Buddha has already shaken the whole world, and if there are too many killings, the country will inevitably fall into turmoil, which will not only be detrimental to development, but may also give potential enemies an opportunity to take advantage of. But Rao is like this, and Jihyun has also suffered a lot.

Leaving Chang'an Ying Zen Temple, Zhixuan first went all the way south, slipped down the Yangtze River, then turned north, and finally came to Xuyi, where miracles were rumored.

In the Linggui Temple, Zhixuan and the monks in the temple are invincible, and the monks in the temple admire and admire, so the public promotes Zhixuan as the abbot. The Northern Qi Dynasty was chaotic, the people were not able to make a living, and Gao Wei highly respected Buddhism, which was a good place for teaching and disciples. More than a year ago, Ji Hyun passed on the abbot to Hui Lun, who had returned from his travels, and he himself lived in seclusion and carefully studied Buddhism in order to go further.

Although Zhixuan is a monk and transcendent from the outside world, it is impossible for him to be ruthless, which can be seen from the fact that he has argued with Taoism and Confucianism several times, otherwise how can he take the status of Buddhism to heart? Therefore, it is impossible for Zhixuan to be indifferent to Chang'an's blow, and he did not collapse all at once, and going to the extreme shows the tenacity and open-mindedness of his heart.

Zhixuan has always been obsessed, and he has a hidden hatred for Yu Wenyong. Some time ago, it was reported that Yuwen Yong's soldiers were defeated and died, and Zhixuan still had a trace of excitement and happiness in his heart, but when he thought of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who died on the battlefield, he felt a little heavy and sad in his heart, and he was very contradictory. These days, Jihyun has been thinking about whether to return to Chang'an and regain the prosperity of Buddhism.

At this moment of confusion and wandering, the few words of happiness are indeed like a slap in the face, awakening and empowerment, and deafening, so that Jihyun's heart, which is gradually losing, regains its original color in an instant.

Buddhism emphasizes the cycle of cause and effect, good and evil are rewarded, the Buddha often said that the world is full of suffering, and all sentient beings are universal, so why bother to care about the temple used to live in? As long as everyone has the Buddha in their hearts, devotion to the Buddha, follows the Buddha's wishes, does good and eliminates evil, and abstains from their own bodies, the Dharma can be propagated and Buddhism will naturally flourish, so what difference does it make when you practice?

"Amitabha, good, good, the old man lost his temper, let the son laugh!"

Jihyun had a look of apology on his face, paused, folded his hands and bowed very solemnly to Xing, his gentle tone revealing an indescribable ease.

"Childe's words made Lao Qu Mao pause, and Lao Qu is very grateful!"

happily returned the salute, shook his head and said: "The master is serious, Gao is just a mistake!" ”

Ji Hyun just smiled at the happy and modest words, and then looked around, and his clear and gentle voice spread around: "It's here, everyone please go back!" ”

"Disciple retires!"

The surrounding audience saw Jihyun speak, although they were surprised about the victory or defeat between Happy and Hye-lun, but they still bowed and retired, and their faces were respectful.

"Amitabha!" Zhixuan proclaimed the Buddha's name and returned the salute.

At this time, Hui Lun also came to Zhi Hyun and said to Zhi Hyun with a look of shame: "Master, the disciple is at fault, please punish him!" ”

"You should be punished, you are a disciple of Buddhism, greed and hatred are the three poisons, you are the abbot, but you don't practice your own heart, and you fight bravely in front of everyone, you really shouldn't apologize to Gao Gongzi?!" Ji Hyun's voice was very gentle, and he couldn't hear the slightest anger or reproach, but when Hui Lun heard this, he trembled a few times, and hung his head deeply, and the shame on his face became heavier and heavier.

Happy raised his eyebrows slightly, although Ji Hyun was criticizing Hui Lun, but it also vaguely pointed out that Happy was respected, and it was really a loss of identity to fight with Hui Lun in front of the public.

He didn't think about it, and smiled happily and gently: "Master, although the disciples of Buddhism are far away from the red dust, as long as Wei Deng is blissful and achieves positive results, he must pursue the laws and disciplines of the world. Gao said goodbye, master take care! ”

After speaking, Happy turned around and walked towards the Zheng family not far away, gathered a few women, and walked down the mountain together, never looking back.

Ji Hyun was stunned, knowing that the relationship between Hui Lun and Happy was by no means a simple competition, and the word Happy was full of a deep meaning, which made him not only frown, but also think about it carefully.

"Huilun, why is it fighting with Gao Gongzi today, and let's talk about it in detail with the teacher?" After thinking for a moment, Jihyun turned his head to look at Hyelun and asked.

"Master." Hui Lun looked at the collapsed hall, Zhi Xuan was surprised, and said "Come to the teacher's house" and walked to the side, and Hui Lun hurriedly followed.

"Master, everything started because of the release of color." After returning to the house and making sure that the partition wall had no ears, Huilun said in a low voice.

"Release?" Zhixuan frowned, his eyes were full of doubts, but the next moment a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he said a little hurriedly: "But Shi Se wanted to take revenge on Gao Gongzi but failed, and was killed by Gao Gongzi in the end?" ”

"Master's eyes are like torches." Huilun sighed and said: "The apprentice originally wanted to release his lust and follow me for three years, eat fasting and recite the Buddha, and his anger and resentment have long since disappeared, who would have thought that he still has a grudge against Gao Gongzi." If it weren't for Gao Gongzi's vigilance today, I was afraid that the princess would make some mistakes, and more than 100 monks in Linggui Temple would be unable to escape death! ”

"No wonder, no wonder Gao Gongzi left those words when he left!" There was no need for Hye-lun to continue, Ji-hyun probably guessed what was going on.

Sweeping the floor is afraid of hurting ants, and cherishing the moth gauze lamp. Buddhists say that all living beings are equal, and it is taboo to kill. Although Shakse made a big mistake, Hui Lun believed that punishment was enough, so that he would repent, and he would not have to pay with his life. However, such a decision will never be agreed upon by joy, and it is a violation of the law.

"Alas, the storm is coming!" Thinking about the reason, Jihyun couldn't help but sigh gloomily.

Hui Lun asked in surprise, "Why is Master sighing?" ”

Ji Hyun didn't answer and asked, "Have you ever had an agreement with Gao Gongzi?" Since the two of them use force as the final solution, they think there should be an agreement, and it is Zhixuan who asks this question.

Huilun's breath stagnated, and he said gloomily: "Master, the apprentice is not filial, and it has affected everyone, so the apprentice will pack his bags today and leave tomorrow morning!" ”

"Sure enough, the one who should come is still coming, I'm so happy!" Hearing Hui Lun say this, Ji Hyun's heart sank, and there was a touch of bitterness and melancholy on his face.

Hui Lun was even more puzzled: "Master, what are you coming?" ”

"Destroy the Buddha."

If he is as smart as he is, how can he not see clearly the various shortcomings in Buddhism, and how can he not know the purpose of Yuwen Yong's destruction of the Buddha. Happy father and son are in the sky, the new defeat of the Zhou State, the vitality is greatly damaged, and the Northern Qi is likely to break and stand up, soaring into the sky, then the Buddhism of the Qi State will face the same problems as the Zhou State, and the words of the happy departure faintly reveal the meaning of this aspect.

One day you will not become a Buddha, you will not attain bliss, as long as you live in this world, everyone must obey the emperor and must be bound by the law.

After that, no matter how Hyelun asked, Jihyun never said a word, but told him to rest early and pay attention to safety all the way when traveling alone. Huilun could only keep his mouth shut and silently go back to clean up his salutes, but in his heart he was very unhappy, it was loss, resentment, anger, everything.
