Chapter 269: Discuss countermeasures
"Destruction?" said Master Abbot and the other elders in unison.
Elder Lifa shook his head vigorously and said, "It's easy to say, what if we can't get out after the destruction?"
Elder Lihong also thought for a moment and said, "The elders who are guarding the teleportation circle are also going in together, maybe a new magic circle can be built in it." ”
Master Abbot lowered his head and said, "Everyone knows that the secret realm is composed of the powerful Buddha domain of the gods and monks of Nanzong Temple thousands of years ago, and the laws of heaven and earth and the laws of the Great Dao in it are different from the outside world.
"The teleportation circle was also the entrance set aside at that time, and after thousands of years of improvement, it has become what it is today. Speaking of which, the teleportation circle is the only exit from the secret realm, and it has been the foundation for thousands of years, so it may be difficult to re-establish it. ”
Yifeng nodded and said, "The meaning of the elders has been understood, but now, there is no perfect way. Escaping into the secret realm is already a good strategy.
"Disciple's thoughts, in the secret realm, there are many resources that can be used, as long as you are careful, it will not be a problem to stay in it for three or five years. It's just that the environment is more difficult, and there is no longer the time when it was pampered before.
"Moreover, there are dangers in the secret realm from time to time, maybe when collecting survival resources, you will encounter all kinds of difficulties, I hope that after you enter, the elders can be mentally prepared to clear the mental obstacles for the disciples.
"As for destroying the teleportation entrance, it is a last resort, at least inside, there is still a chance to study the magic circle. ”
Elder Lihong said: "There is a space to survive, there is an opportunity to study the magic circle, this method is already very rare at present. ”
Yifeng continued: "The disciple will also find a way to improve his cultivation outside, maybe soon, the disciple will be able to solve the dilemma of the secret realm teleportation." ”
"Aren't you going in with us?!"
Master Abbot and Elder Lihong asked together, and Elder Lifa also raised his eyes to look at Yifeng.
Yifeng shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The disciple doesn't have this life. Since I promised my senior brothers, Elder Ran and Yuchuni, that I want to cultivate and grow well, I have to work hard day and night.
"In the secret realm, although there are also opportunities for cultivation and training, it is too slow.
"What we lack most now is time, the Dawu Legion has all dispatched its core forces, and I don't know how many Buddhist monks die tragically under the sword every day.
"My Buddha path is under the sword and gun of the Dawu Legion, and I can't live in a corner and sit in a well and watch the sky. ”
Elder Lifa frowned, his face displeased.
Yifeng saw it and said, "Elder Fa, don't blame, the disciple doesn't mean to insinuate anyone. It's just that all the elders know that the disciple is a Buddha sent by the Heavenly Buddha Kingdom, and he should take on the major matter of the survival and destruction of the Buddha's path.
"The elders and the senior brothers of Nanzong Temple entered the secret realm, and they also reserved the fire for the Buddha's path. Now the situation outside is stormy, and the fire must be properly kept. As long as the flame is not extinguished, the light of faith and hope will one day be reborn. ”
Master Abbot looked at Yifeng with great satisfaction and said, "Yifeng, they are really right. You used to be like a cowardly child hiding behind adults, but now you have become a man who stands up to the sky. My Buddha is merciful, may the twenty heavenly gods and Buddhas bless you. ”
Yifeng folded his hands and saluted the abbot master and the other elders, got up and said, "Since the destiny of heaven is in you, you will move forward!"
Elder Lihong patted Yifeng's shoulder and nodded.
Master Abbot also patted him on the shoulder and asked, "In that case, you can practice outside, but do you have any plans?"
Yifeng thought about it, shook his head slowly, and said: "The disciple doesn't have it for the time being, I'm afraid I will have to travel all over the Bafang Prefecture of the Great Martial Kingdom, and when the time comes, I may be able to find a way while walking." ”
Seeing the abbot's worried looks, he added: "It's okay, as long as I don't die, the Great Martial Kingdom Buddha Dao will not die!"
Master Lihong was about to stop, and finally said: "Then you must pay attention to safety outside, be flexible and flexible, and not be reckless." ”
Master Abbot turned to the elders and said, "Let's start acting, gather all the disciples, and prepare to enter the secret realm." ”
"Slow!"
Yifeng suddenly stopped them and said, "With all due respect to the disciple, the most important thing at the moment is not the disciple moving in. ”
Elder Lifa sneered, "Say a few words to you, and you will start to get carried away! The most important thing now is not people, or what?
Yifeng shook his head and said, "The foundation of Buddhism does not lie in people, but in Buddhism. Buddhism is boundless, but so are people. Only the scriptures that record the Dharma are the most important foundation of the Buddhist path.
"The cruelty and viciousness of the Golden Dragon Order lies in this, the so-called killing and punishing the heart, and destroying the Dao is destroying the scriptures.
"Whether it is Confucianism or Taoism, as long as all the missionary books based on the religion are destroyed, and the believers are also mutilated, the foundation of a religion is destroyed.
"My disciple has heard that if you want to completely destroy the Buddha's path, you only need one generation of Buddhist monks to have no scriptures to read.
"So the most important thing at the moment is the Buddhist scriptures in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. As long as the Buddhist scriptures are there, the Dharma will not be extinguished. ”
Master Abbot bowed his head and was silent, and after a while, he raised his head, his eyes looked at Yifeng, but his eyes had changed.
If he had seen Yifeng's growth before, he had just grown from a well-behaved and simple little disciple to a responsible Buddhist monk.
Now in his eyes, Yifeng has made great strides towards becoming a giant of Buddhism.
The real responsibility is to shoulder a huge responsibility.
Thinking of this, Master Abbot said, "Yifeng, you're right. The old monk is indeed old, and the situation outside is chaotic and confusing, and he didn't even think of this.
"These Buddhist scriptures in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of Nanzong Temple are the great power of the masters of Nanzong Temple, and the Buddhist classics that have been found after a lot of hard work, are the foundation of Buddhism.
"When the master was there, he once said that the Nanzong Temple can be destroyed, and the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion cannot be destroyed. The old monk didn't quite understand the meaning of this at the time, but now I think about it, in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, we put the Buddhist scriptures on the Nanzong Temple's magical secret books, which is the good intentions of the ancestors of the Nanzong Temple.
"The supernatural exercises of Buddhism can be recreated, but the foundation of Buddhism's morality is recorded in the Buddhist scriptures, and without the accumulation of thousands of years and generations, even if the number of Buddhist monks who survive, they will not be able to create such a grand Dharma after spending their entire lives. ”
Master Liao Hong said: "In this case, then we will quickly gather our disciples and move the book of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion into the secret realm as soon as possible." When people are there, the Buddhist scriptures are there, and they must protect these scriptures to death. ”
Elder Lifa frowned, snorted coldly, and calculated an account: "It's easy to say, there are as many as one million scriptures in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, even if you add monks and soldiers, and five thousand disciples carry them together, not counting the time it takes to enter the secret realm, you can only transport them twice a day."
"Books come in all sizes, and even if each person carries three or four boxes of scriptures, it will take at least a month to carry them. And that's just the Buddhist scriptures, and the exercises and supernatural books are not counted.
"But how much time can we have now? It's only five days at most, and besides, we still have our own preparation time, don't we want the remaining medicines, magic weapons, and spiritual treasures?
"The secret realm is not a good place, there are many dangers inside, even if we are in the outermost periphery, don't we need to go inside to find food to eat? What should we do if we are injured, what should we do if the magic weapon is consumed? Don't we need to think about it all?"
Hearing this, everyone was silent for a while, although Elder Fa's tone was not very kind, but the words were all on the point, and there was indeed no way to solve it.
Yifeng also bowed his head and pondered with the elders, and after a while, he raised his head and said to the elders: "Master Abbot, all the elders. The disciple heard Wei Huang, the prince of Junzhou, say that there is sacrifice in changing the law.
"Now we are not changing the law, we are guarding the way, and we are desperately defending the way under the iron hooves of the First Empire of Unai.
"The sacrifice is so great that none of the tens of millions of Buddhist monks in the Dawu Kingdom have been spared, or forced to return to the world, or hide in the mountains and forests, and many have been trampled under the iron hooves, covered with liver and gall, and their heads are bleeding - this is what I have seen with my own eyes.
"Sacrifice is inevitable, whether it is a person or a thing. Therefore, the abbot master is also asked to choose the most important scriptures and transport them to the secret realm as soon as possible.
"For the rest, let the strong man break his wrist. ”
Everyone's faces are not very good-looking, but they all understand that it is difficult to preserve them all today.
Master Abbot nodded and said, "Then please invite Senior Brother Hong to preside over the screening of Buddhist scriptures in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and other junior disciples will assist, and Senior Brother Li will be responsible for leading people to transport medicine and other materials, so act quickly, time is not waiting." ”
Everyone was about to go out, but Yifeng suddenly said: "Master Abbot, after the big thing is over, the disciple has one more thing to ask for." ”
Master Abbot reluctantly smiled and said: "Yifeng, now you are the pillar of Nanzong Temple, and the old monks and brothers are no longer very useful." The Buddha's path must belong to you. Don't be so polite, just say anything. ”
Yifeng looked at them with his eyes, nodded slightly, and said, "Master Abbot, the disciple still wants to borrow the forbidden land of Nanzong Temple!"
Master Abbot was taken aback.
