Chapter 581: Buddha Persuasion

Faced with the old monk's sloppy answer, Sun Quan couldn't help but turn around and glance at Diao Chan and make eye contact. If you don't disclose your name or origin, you're either a liar and you're afraid that people will investigate and verify; Or, this person is really a person, and his identity may be familiar.

Therefore, Sun Quan wanted to confirm with Diao Chan that Cihang Jingzhai was familiar with Buddhism, and he must know more about Buddhist monks than Sun Quan, is there any monk who has the characteristics of this person in front of him?

Diao Chan shook her head slightly at Sun Quan, with such a little bit of information, she couldn't be sure of anything. Merely..... Diao Chan once again set her eyes on the old monk, and she always felt that this person looked a little strange. It's not that she suspects this person is a liar, it's just that it looks weird.

Sun Quan turned around, since he couldn't be sure of anything, then he simply got straight to the point and said,

"I don't know why the monk came this time?"

"Amitabha."

The old monk folded again in front of Sun Quan,

"The poor monk just wanted to come and see the general."

"Oh?" Sun Quan's eyes moved, and he suddenly said, "Then now that you see it, how do you feel?" How do I look? ”

If the monk said that there was something wrong with his face, then Sun Quan was almost ninety percent sure that this person was a liar. The usual routine of scammers is to spend money to eliminate disasters.

"The general is different from ordinary people, and no poor monk can peep into it." The old monk shook his head, "Now that I see it, the poor monk should also leave." ”

After saying that, he really turned around and left.

Sun Quan, Diao Chan, Wu Jing and others, who stayed in place, looked at each other,

"What? Don't you still want to get away with it? Sun Quan couldn't help but complain.

"I'm secretly sending someone to follow him and find out what he's really doing?" Wu Jing leaned in and said.

Sun Quan frowned, then shook his head,

"If it's a liar, it won't do us any good to find out what is false; And if it is not a liar, acting rashly, it may be a sideshow. Just send someone up and see where he is staying, and do nothing else. ”

If you really want to explore the truth and reality, Sun Quan will test it by allowing me to think twice, which is the most stable, so in reality, you don't have to do anything, you just don't need to lose people.

"I'll arrange it." Wu nodded and left.

After Wu Jing left, Sun Quan asked Diao Chan,

"What do you think?"

"This man gives me a sense of purity and holiness, not like a liar." Diao Chan said, paused, and shook his head slightly, "It's a pity, I still can't think of who this person is, maybe, just a hermit?" ”

"The hermit will come to see me?" Sun Quan couldn't help but sneer.

"And what are you going to do?" Diao Chan asked rhetorically.

"Go back first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." Sun Quan turned around and walked back, "We are new to Huaiyin, so let's not make too many moves for the time being, so as not to attract unnecessary suspicion in the city." ”

"Yes." Diao Chan nodded, following Sun Quan.

If this old monk is really a liar, then this trick wants to catch up, and Sun Quan catches up with it. Now it is a good way to take the initiative by hanging each other out like this. However, Diao Chan didn't know that Sun Quan actually had another consideration.

Night

The moment before the sub-time,

Sun Quan used the last time of the day to allow me to think twice, and then, taking advantage of the night, quickly left the City Lord's Mansion.

β€”β€”β€”β€” the Dividing Line of Illusionβ€”β€”β€”β€”

According to the information from Wu Jing's people during the day, Sun Quan came all the way to a ruined temple. The temple here is different from the temple in Sun Quan's memory: first, it is very small, not as large as the temple, and the so-called temple is almost as big as an ordinary person's house; Secondly, no one cares, it is completely open.

Sun Quan had specifically understood in advance that this was equivalent to a municipal project done by Zhenrong in those years, which was similar to the park in later generations, and there was a small Buddha statue in the temple, and anyone could come to worship at any time.

Of course, this is the situation that Zhenrong is still there, after Zhenrong left, the small temple here was gradually left uncared for, until later, it became dilapidated, and then became a sojourn for some homeless people.

Coming to the ruined temple, Sun Quan looked at the dirty and messy environment here, which made him a little surprised, that high-ranking monk who looked like a decent would actually spend the night in such a place? I remember that during the day, Sun Quan looked at the clothes on the other party's body, but there was no dirty and dilapidated look.

The broken temple was not big, and Sun Quan did not cover it up, so he directly broke into the inner courtyard. As a result, when he got inside, Sun Quan saw a scene that shocked him even more.

I saw a group of disheveled, dirty homeless people, now all sitting in danger, surrounding the old monk in the middle, who listened carefully, how could he still have a little ordinary ruffian posture, more obedient than the primary school students who faced the head teacher in later generations!

Sun Quan's sudden intrusion obviously broke the calm atmosphere here, and a group of people immediately turned around and glared angrily at Sun Quan. Well, that feeling, it's funny, Sun Quan is like facing a pack of wild dogs that are eating. Sun Quan seems to have accidentally intruded into their territory. If it weren't for seeing Sun Quan dressed nobly, he didn't look like a person to be messed with, otherwise, they would have driven Sun Quan out.

"Since the general is here, it is better to sit down and listen to the teachings of the Buddha." The old monk smiled at Sun Quan.

Sun Quan raised his eyebrows,

"The teachings of the Buddha?"

After looking around, there was no one else here. So, this old monk is a self-proclaimed Buddha? That's not your average liar! Sun Quan even wondered if all the people here were deliberately found by the old monk, so this old guy's routine was really not good!

Probably seeing what Sun Quan was thinking, the old monk shook his head and smiled,

"The poor monk is just reciting the Buddha's teachings."

"Oh? Why do you know the teachings of the Buddha? Could it be that the Buddha gave you a dream? Sun Quan asked deliberately.

"The teachings of the Buddha have long been codified, and the poor monks just brought the scriptures to the Central Plains from the West." The old monk replied.

Yo! Learn from the West!

Sun Quan was stunned, but there is no story of Journey to the West in this era, could this guy be telling the truth?

"I wonder what scriptures the master brought here?" Sun Quan continued to ask, knowing very well that if he wanted to expose a liar, he had to ask some professional questions.

"Yin Holding into the Sutra", "Abhidhamma Five Dharma and Four Noble Truths", "Twelve Causes", "Turning the Dharma**", "Eightfold Path", "Zen Practice", "Practicing the Tao Sutra" and so on." The old monk's answer did not have the slightest thought or pause, at least, to Sun Quan's ears, it definitely did not look like a current fabrication.

At this point, Sun Quan almost believed that this old monk was indeed a high-ranking monk, so he took the opportunity to say,

"Master, if you preach the Dharma like this, even if you have received the teachings of the Buddha, what can you do? But with the power of one person, he can teach several people. Now, I have a way to get thousands of people to listen to the Dharma together, I wonder if the master would be interested in talking to me in more detail? ”

The old monk's face was pale, and he suddenly said to Sun Quan very seriously,

"General, do you really know what a Buddha is?"

"I only know that if no one knows, then it is equivalent to not having a Buddha." Sun Quan emphasized. Any sect will eventually dissipate if it has no believers, so it doesn't matter what the Buddha is, preaching is the king.

"More desires are suffering, life and death fatigue, starting from greed, less desires and inaction, body and mind are at ease. General, what you are looking for is not the Buddha, but the shore. The old monk said in a deep voice.
