Chapter Seventy-Eight: Laughing at the Mahakasya
Different from Chunting's excitement, Shen Lang's expression was very depressed.
Shen Lang had a rare opportunity to show himself in front of us, but Chun Ting suddenly interrupted his opportunity to perform, so he couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved.
So like an angry child, he began to complain to Chunting.
"Brother Ting, what's the matter, you really listened to me."
Chunting got up and looked in the direction of the Lushena Buddha, and it was difficult to hide his excitement in his tone.
"No, I can roughly guess what that means."
Shen Lang had a straightforward temperament, and when he heard that it was Chunting who had made a discovery, he was no longer aggrieved, he walked in front of Chunting and asked happily.
"Brother Ting, tell me quickly, what does this mean?"
Chun Ting smiled with satisfaction, stretched out his hands and applauded Shen Lang gently, his tone was a rare appreciation for Shen Lang.
"Speaking of which, it's really thanks to you this time, if you hadn't been able to remember the full text of Yi Xiao, I really wouldn't have thought it would be like this."
Shen Lang was very proud when he heard this, he looked at us with a proud face, as if he was shouting at us silently.
I, Shen Lang, am very useful!
It's a pity that we didn't have time to take Shen Lang's expression into account, but hurriedly gathered around Chun Ting, since he had made a discovery, of course we had to urge him to tell the clues in Yebai's message.
Chun Ting turned around and looked at Shen Lang and told another story.
"At the Lingshan Meeting, the World Venerable showed the crowd with flowers, and when everyone was silent, Venerable Gyala Ye smiled."
As a result, Shen Lang's expression was blank after hearing this, and he didn't know what Chunting meant at all.
Since Chunting didn't say it to Shen Lang alone, the other people sitting naturally heard this sentence, and after hearing it, I looked at Shen Langyi and smiled.
It seems that my guess was correct, and the focus left by Yebai is not the content itself, but the hidden story in it.
I have to admit that this time it was indeed thanks to Shen Lang, because I don't remember the full text of Yi Xiao, if he hadn't recited it, I'm afraid that I would still be studying the meaning of these two sentences carefully, and I won't think of the hidden truth in them.
Lingshan has a smile on the flowers.
This is what the last two sentences are really trying to hide, and when you think about it, the puzzle is self-defeating.
Seeing my expression and knowing that I understood what he meant, Chunting smiled at me encouragingly.
"Han Chuan, tell me what you think."
Seeing Chunting's encouraging eyes, I no longer hesitated, and watched everyone slowly express my opinion.
"In fact, in the words left by Yebai, the focus is not on the content of these two sentences themselves, but on the original source of the poem, more precisely the neck couplet of the poem."
Shen Lang thought thoughtfully, and recited the neck couplet from his mouth questioningly.
"There are scholars in Lingshan who are smiling, who is in the que to drum Sexi?"
I nodded and looked at Shen Lang appreciatively.
"It's really thanks to you, that's right, that's it, Yebai is the story that hints at our smile in this way."
Although I am not a Buddhist, the allusion of Venerable Kasya's smile is too famous, and I naturally knew about it before.
One of the ten disciples of the Buddha, his full name is Mahakalpa, and it is said that he became a disciple of the Buddha in the third year after the Buddha's enlightenment, and after eight days he became an arhat, the most detached of the Buddha's disciples.
Zen Buddhism is regarded as the first person among the disciples of the Buddha to cultivate non-attachment, and the special respect is the first of the head Buddha, among which the story of smiling with flowers is still recited endlessly.
In the legend of Buddhism, the Great Brahma King once asked the Buddha Shakyamuni to speak the Dharma on the Vulture Mountain, the Great Brahma King offered a golden Bora flower to the Buddha, and after the solemn salute, everyone sat aside, and the Buddha picked up a golden Brahma flower, the mood was serene, but he was silent.
None of the people present understood what the Buddha meant, and they all looked at each other, and at this moment, Mahakala smiled lightly.
The Buddha immediately announced that I had a set of mystical mental methods that would be able to get rid of all false appearances and eventually attain positive results, the beauty of which was indescribable.
Subsequently, the Lord gave the golden robe and bowl that he used in ordinary times to the Ka Ye, which is the story of the true transmission of the Zen mantle and the mantle.
The core idea of Zen Buddhism is not to set up words to teach outside the teaching, and directly point to the human heart to become a Buddha, and in this story only the Venerable Kasa Ye smiled and understood, this is the beginning of Zen Buddhism, so Zen Buddhism revered Mahakala as the first generation of the patriarch of the Western Heavens.
Although Xue Nan had also heard the story of smiling at the flowers, he was still full of doubts after I said it.
"Han Chuan, even if there is an allusion to a smile hidden in the last two sentences, what does this have to do with our next purpose?"
"My stupid big sister, why are you stupider than me."
Before I could speak, Shen Lang actually took the first step to explain to Xue Nan, he was really unusually clever today.
"The Lushena Buddha is not carved alone, there is a statue of the Venerable Kasya, right next to the Great Buddha."
Shen Lang was right.
During the day, we have gone to investigate, this Fengxian Temple carved layout for a Buddha, two disciples, two Bodhisattvas, two heavenly kings, two wilnesses nine statues.
The seated statue of Lushena Buddha is the largest Buddha statue in Longmen Grottoes, and there are two Venerable Ananda and Ka Ye carved on both sides of Lushena Buddha, and then next to it are two Bodhisattvas Manjushri and Puxian, and on both sides of the Bodhisattva are two heavenly kings.
Qi Zhi also reacted at this time, watching us eager to try, as if we were going to the statue now.
"Brother Chuan, it seems that the place we are looking for is where the statue of Venerable Jiaye is, so when will we leave?"
Although Xie Xie usually doesn't talk much, at this time he said another question.
"Although I don't know where the night white in your mouth is sacred, but since he left four sentences, the first two sentences will not be used to make up the numbers."
The heart that was excited just now gradually calmed down, if the first two sentences are useless, Ye Bai can only leave the last two sentences, since he deliberately let Xingkong relay the four sentences to us together, then the first two sentences must have his use.
We were thinking deeply, but Shen Lang walked around the room with his head held high, and the tone in his mouth was very spirited.
"The full text of the article is as many as 1,000 words, although I don't remember the full text, but I remember the two sentences in this message clearly."
It was the first time I felt that Shen Lang was so smart and useful, but Xue Nan didn't seem to think so, she looked at Shen Lang's proud appearance, stood up and walked next to Shen Lang, and stretched out her sinful hand to Shen Lang's right arm.
"Show what, I know if you don't hurry up and say it!"
Shen Lang was in a state of pride, and Xue Nan suddenly made a move, and exhaled in pain.
"It hurts, it hurts! Sister, I was wrong, stop, how can a master pinch someone! ”
After a burst of laughter, Shen Lang rubbed his injured right arm, opened his mouth aggrievedly, and said the original text in the past chapter.
The old landmark of Huayang is made of gods, and the stone mirror moth eyebrows are really beautiful.
Zhuge Caixiong has been called the dragon, and Gongsun Yuema is called the emperor.
With Shen Lang's aggrieved voice, we finally came to our senses.
In the same way as the last two sentences, what is hidden in the first two lines is the same as the previous sentence in the original text of the poem.
That is, Mount Emei!
I am no stranger to Mount Emei, it was in the Wannian Temple of Mount Emei that I cracked the first mechanism, and it was there that I met Xue Nan for the first time, and under her leadership, we began our wonderful adventure.
And this Mount Emei is also related to Buddhism, and the place of the legendary Fuxian Bodhisattva is Mount Emei.
If I'm not mistaken, it seems that the statue carved next to the statue of Venerable Kasa is the image of the Bodhisattva. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Guanshan Chronicle Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
