Chapter 222: White Horse Temple
Early the next morning, Huwei Hou Yanghu's master and apprentice left Luoyang. Before leaving, he revealed that he was going to Liaodong to find Bai Lixi, another former disciple of Xi Yingzhen. The first person in the world to refine weapons was the most famous one among Xi Yingzhen's former disciples, and it is said that Bai Lixi's relationship with Xi Yingzhen's Grand Warcist over the years has been severed. Master Yang Hu planned to try his luck in the past, and Bai Lixi seemed to know the news of Xi Yingzhen's other disciples. This time it was against the Fang Shi, even if he didn't find Xi Yingzhen Grand Karcist. Yang Hu didn't plan to end it like this.
After another three months, Cai Yin and Qin Jing, who were sent to the Western Regions, sent back the fast horse to bring news. Their mission met the Tianzhu monks Se Mo Teng and Zhu Falan in the Great Moon Clan, both of whom were Taoist monks in the Tianzhu Kingdom and were spreading Buddhism in the Great Moon Clan. Cai and Qin saw Buddhist scriptures and white felt statues of Shakyamuni Buddha beside the two eminent monks. After lobbying by two people, the two eminent monks had agreed to come to Dahan to spread the teachings of Buddhism.
After the news came. The Emperor's Dragon's Heart. Immediately issued a holy decree and came forward, and the officials at all levels prepared to welcome the Dharma and the monks. All of a sudden. The disciples of the Liberation Sect who were originally ignored in Luoyang City have become hot figures. Almost every day, officials from the DPRK and China invited these monks with shaved heads to their mansions to preach the scriptures, and the monks, who were already as down as beggars, became nobles at this time.
In the past few years, Cai Yin and Qin Jing finally returned to the foot of Luoyang with the two Tianzhu monks. Emperor Liu Zhuang actually drove the nobles and personally took the crown prince and civil and military officials to greet the two Tianzhu monks in front of the city gate. Seeing thirty white horses carrying Buddhist scriptures, Liu Zhuang issued an edict to build a temple in the north of the three-mile imperial road outside the Xiyong Gate in Luoyang. Because the Buddhist scriptures were carried by thirty white horses, the temple was named White Horse Temple. This is also the first government-run temple where Buddhism was introduced to Dongtu.
Originally, Liu Zhuang meant. I want to invite two eminent monks to be the first presiding officer and supervisor of the White Horse Temple. However, the two Tianzhu monks both said that they only came to the Han Dynasty to spread Buddhism, and had no intention of staying there. Soon after, the two will return to Tianzhu. As for the first host of the White Horse Temple, it is better to ask the Han natives to serve as the hosts.
After all, Buddhism is also a new religion, and these monks in Luoyang City can only recite a few sentences of translation that are not very smooth. As for what the sutras they recite say. I'm afraid the monks themselves can't tell. Those who can integrate the original text and translation of the Buddhist scriptures, and have searched for monks in Luoyang City, but no one can say it clearly.
In the end, it was Se Mo Teng who proposed a candidate, and Jia Yemo, who presided over the original Huainan State Xinjue Temple in Jiujiang County, was his junior disciple in the Tianzhu Temple. Master Kayama is a hybrid of the Great Han and Tianzhu. Born in Tianzhu at an early age, Jia was proficient in Buddhism as a teenager and came to Dahan to spread Buddhism decades ago. and all-night Han culture, it is really the best choice for the first host of the White Horse Temple.
After listening to Morteng's recommendation, Liu Zhuang immediately issued a holy decree. Go to the Xinjue Temple in Shouchun City, Jiujiang County. Go and ask Master Kayamo to lead all the disciples into the palace for the royal **.
More than a month later, Ka Ye Mo led his junior brother Zhiyuan and his disciples to Luoyang City. After entering the palace to meet Emperor Liu Zhuang. First, he lectured on the scriptures for the children of the Liu royal family. Liu Zhuang, who had just been enlightened under the influence of the Buddhism of the two Tianzhu monks, Shemoteng and Zhu Falan, was greatly enlightened, and he was even more shocked by Master Jiayemo. At that moment, he was appointed as the Protector of the Auxiliary Holy Zen Master, and he was appointed as the first host of the White Horse Temple. The younger brother of Kayama was obsessed with Yuan as the supervisor of the White Horse Temple, and the other temple positions in the temple were also held by several other disciples of the Protector of the Saint Zen Master.
Takemoten and Zhu Falan stayed in the White Horse Temple to translate Buddhism. Although the two do not have any temple jobs. However, it can be regarded as a great contribution to the spread of Buddhism.
The White Horse Temple was built by the emperor's holy decree, and it took many years to build it. The day of its inauguration. The emperor sent the crown prince and his civil and military officials to watch the ceremony and congratulate him. Among the congratulatory crowd, there were even a court priest who stayed in the palace. It's just that after observing the ceremony, this Fang Shi asked the emperor for leave and returned to the Fang Shi Sect. The emperor didn't hold back in the slightest, didn't say much polite words, and said that you shouldn't come back if there was nothing to do. Since then, there has been no longer the title of court scholar in the imperial palace. However, a few high-ranking monks entered the palace from time to time and walked around.
However, Wu Mian did not return to the disciples brought by Master Kayama. But I didn't see his new disciple named Guangxiao not long ago. Later in the mouths of other disciples. Only then did I learn that Zen Master Guangxiao had stayed in the Xinjue Temple, and had replaced his master, Master Jiayema, to become the presiding abbot of the Xinjue Temple.
According to the monk who inquired about returning. Although Zen Master Guangxiao became a disciple of Shimen for a short time. But under the teachings of Master Kayama. The comprehension of the Dharma is a great deal. When he came to Luoyang, Master Kayema already knew that the emperor intended to canonize himself as the presiding officer of the White Horse Temple. But Xinjue Temple can't be without someone who is in charge. At that moment, before leaving, the position of the presiding officer of the Xinjue Temple was passed to Guangxiao.
Guangxiao, who has become a monk, did not come to Luoyang with Jiayemo, which is a bit unexpected for him to return. Originally, according to the old guy's thoughts, Monk Kayama had reached his twilight years, and he would die in a few years. And the obsessive monk Yuan's character is rough, and he is not suitable to be the host of the White Horse Temple. Compared with the second generation of disciples, only Guangxiao can dare to take up the heavy responsibility of presiding over the White Horse Temple, but he stayed in Shouchun City to be a small presiding officer of the Xinjue Temple, which is really unexpected by the fact that he will not return.
After staying in Luoyang City for a while, I saw that the old monk Jiaye Mo, who was the presiding officer of the White Horse Temple, was in good spirits, and he did not have the slightest intention of summoning Guangxiao from Xinjue Temple to the White Horse Temple. At the moment, it was meaningless for them to stay in Luoyang City, and after discussing it, they left the housekeeper to watch the house in the mansion. Several of them used their respective retreats to return to Shouchun City, staring at the Guangxiao Zen Master under their eyelids. Let's see what tricks he can pull off.
returned to Shouchun City and met Peng Huayin. Gui Gui pretended to check the technique of his disciple, and after a few years, Peng Huayin's technique was almost still at the level when they left Shouchun City. The old guy regretted teaching this disciple a little, and the average disciple followed him to learn the magic for decades. Even if you can't learn, you'll almost die of old age, out of sight, out of sight, and out of mind. However, this Peng Huayin is as immortal as him, and he looks at his inch-advancing spells every day, and sooner or later he will be angry to death.
"Alright, so be it. Almost, you won't have to practice every day from tomorrow. Anyway, it's about the same as cultivating every day and once a year. After sighing heavily, he said to Peng Huayin, who was frowning: "When I left, did you finish all the things you explained?" ”
"I don't dare to slack off on this" Peng Huayin paused for a moment, and continued with a smile: "After you left Shouchun, Huayin went to Xinjue Temple every day to soak. Accompany the old monks and young monks every day to preach the scriptures, if it weren't for this, Hua Yin's magic would not have been so long and there was no improvement. ”
After finding an excuse for his sluggishness in the spell, after seeing the expression of no blame on his face, Peng Huayin continued: "Those monks are the same as before, either chanting scriptures in the temple, or coming out to turn their fate. The one named Guangxiao didn't make any moves......"
When he said this, Peng Huayin suddenly thought of something. After a pause, he continued: "But there is one thing that Hua Yin wants to explain to your old man, almost a year ago, they accepted another monk named Guan Wuming in the Xinjue Temple. This Guan Wuming said that he was a disciple of Guangxiao's former disciples, and he came to rejoin the master. However, the old monk Kayema said that the name of Guan Wuming had demonic nature, and immediately gave him a Dharma name called Shijie. The Shijie monk is a double disciple of the Guangxiao monk, and later after the old monk took someone to Luoyang, Guangxiao beat the Shijie monk out to the Taoist Enlightenment. ”
