"That's a good thing! I can't ask for it! ”

Zhu Daolin is very supportive, although what Zu Ting did is suspected of picking fruits, but the effect is far better than that of the medical divination who is not prosperous:

"After this busy time, the disciple will make use of the vacant land on both sides of the pharmacy behind the medical hall to build two elegant courtyards, one is specially for the uncles and uncles to live, and the other is for the daily use of the elders sent by the ancestral court.

Master Bo Xuanyue liked Zhu Daolin's generous personality very much: "I didn't expect that a few of us would have such blessings to enjoy when we were old, all thanks to Daolin!" ”

"This is everyone's credit, and the disciple is just doing his duty."

After Zhu Daolin finished his humility, he suddenly remembered the interesting thing he encountered a few days ago, so he told everyone:

"On the morning of the next day when the disciple took the concubine, two distinguished guests wearing red and gold silk robes suddenly came down on the Qingliang Mountain behind the Zizhu Garden, probably because they heard that the disciples liked antique calligraphy and painting, and the two distinguished guests very politely presented the disciples with a true handiwork of the Song Dynasty monk Buddha Yin Zen Master, and invited the disciples to have time to drink a cup of tea in Qingliang Temple and chat, and exchange piano skills."

"The disciple respectfully accepted the congratulatory gift and invited the two distinguished guests to drink tea in the West Cross Courtyard, only to know that one of the two distinguished guests was the world-famous Buddhist master Zhiyan Zen Master, and the other was less than forty years old and looked very quiet and handsome, and it turned out to be the legendary Zhiling Zen Master who enlightened the Tao with the qin."

Xuanqing and the others all laughed when they heard this, and the second master, Bo Xuanji, who was very interested in anecdotes and interesting conversations of Buddhism and Taoism, asked with a smile: "What happened later?" ”

Zhu Daolin continued: "What an honor it is to have two famous monks come to the door to give gifts? So the disciple happily played a song "Zen Bells" to express his gratitude, but he didn't expect the two Zen masters who were famous all over the world to be so excited that they didn't want to sit down again, Zhiling Zen Master really lived up to his name, and immediately asked the disciple to come to paper, pen and ink, and even silently wrote the score of "Zen Courtyard Bell" at all, which shocked the disciple for a while, and Zhiyan Zen Master pulled the disciple aside, and quietly asked if he could write the story in the song and send it to him? ”

"The disciple thought of the generous gifts he had received before, and always felt that he owed something to others, so he promised to send the written story over after the Spring Festival, but he didn't expect Zen Master Zhiyan to still grab the disciple's hand and was unwilling to let go, and quietly asked the disciple again, can he get back a glass statue of Guanyin from the overseas Tianshu Pavilion that is not less than three feet high, and he is willing to pay the disciple 100,000 taels of silver!"

The disciple was taken aback at that time, thinking that 100,000 taels of silver was not a small amount, so he quietly asked Zen Master Zhiyan if he was sure? How do you know that Zen Master Zhiyan thought that his disciple thought that he was not bidding enough, so he gritted his teeth and said with difficulty, at most, he would give 150,000 taels of silver, and he couldn't do more! The disciple reluctantly agreed. ”

Everyone burst into laughter, and they all looked at the Xuanqing Taoist who had slaughtered the monks of Qingliang Temple several times with glass Buddha statues.

Xuan Qing also thought about it, and asked his beloved disciple: "Can you get back a few glass statues of Zhusheng Niangniang by the way?" My Taoist Niangniang is much more famous than the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy, in the wide and atmospheric golden hall on the right side of the Medicine Temple, there is more than one Niangniang who is about to be enshrined, and Our Lady of Taiyuan and her baby daughter Xichi Bliss Jinci Our Lady will also be high on the incense platform. ”

Several uncles and uncles and more than a dozen brothers standing behind laughed again, but Zhu Daolin, who suddenly felt something, did not smile, but solemnly asked his master: "Have you really decided?" ”

Daoist Xuanqing sighed helplessly: "My Taoism seems to be beautiful, but in fact, it has been declining day by day, and it will not be able to change anymore!" As you said, the stone of the mountain can be used to attack jade, and we must be good at learning, have the courage to change, completely put down the high shelf of the Ming State Religion, and promote the Tao with a pragmatic attitude of being close to the people and treating the people well. ”

"If you are pretentious and complacent, you can't say that one day you will let Buddhism, which is full of tricks and tricks, be left far behind, so no matter what the ancestral court thinks about this, I will start to make changes from Ziyang Temple, and I will live for the majority of Taoist doctors in this life!"

Zhu Daolin couldn't help but be in awe of the master's mind and courage, and immediately bowed down to the master:

"The disciple will do his best to support the change of the master and the uncle, if the master is willing, please give the disciple the set of scriptures brought from the ancestral court, this set of classics containing the historical inheritance of my Shangqing sect and the scriptures and mantras in the sect will be of great help to the disciple's next business."

Xuanqing Daoist immediately agreed: "You can go to my house and take it later, although this set of classics in the religion is precious, but it is not the only one, after each head of the sect is officially in charge, the classics in the religion will be comprehensively sorted out and supplemented, and then handed over to the Tibetan Scriptures Institute in the teaching to engrave thousands of sets and distribute them in the teaching." ”

"The set in hand for the master is engraved by the order of the real person in charge of the sect twelve years ago, and your master also has a set in his hand, if it is not enough, the master will ask the ancestral court to give you a few sets back."

Zhu Daolin was overjoyed: "Enough, enough!" Just one set, no more will be precious. ”

"What are you doing here?" Fifth Master Uncle Xuanfang asked curiously.

Zhu Daolin, who had been premeditated, smiled: "Uncle Shi, have you ever thought about why since the fall of the Tang Dynasty, there have been fewer classics left by my Shangqing sect?" ”

"That's because most of the imperial courts in the Tang Dynasty and after respected Buddhism, and Buddhism did everything to exclude and suppress it, right! War is an important reason......"

Speaking of which, the fifth uncle seemed to understand a little, but he didn't know what kind of help Zhu Daolin could get in exchange for this set of classics.

Zhu Daolin saw that everyone was looking forward to his answer like the fifth uncle, so he no longer concealed his purpose:

"There are also many believers in the Shangqing sect who live overseas, from the folk to the officialdom, and there are countless people who believe in ghosts and gods and feng shui...... Well, when I was walking around there at night, I overheard that their Shangqing sect has not been able to put together a relatively complete set of inheritances due to war and exile from their homeland, especially the scriptures and classics of charms, medical divination, and kanyu are missing, and the medical skills and acupuncture techniques created by my Taoist sages and doctors Bian Que, Hua Tuo, Ge Hong and other medical masters have been completely lost. ”

"So, this time, the disciple wants to bring a set and send it to the Shangqing sect over there, so that I can learn from them how to carry forward the management skills of my Shangqing sect, and maybe I can get back a few bronze statues of the Sanqing sect that are taller than real people."

Everyone was overjoyed and asked again and again if it was enough to take only one set of classics? The second master, Bo Xuanji, who had the largest collection, generously promised on the spot, and later gave Zhu Daolin a set of pushback albums of Li Chunfeng, a predecessor of the Tang Dynasty.
