Chapter 1089: A Chinese Ghost Story (25)

Huang Chao and others once again established the Heavenly Court and the Earth's Mansion, using the old to bring the new, and everything was in order. In the present world, a few monks were left to discuss Buddhism, Daoxin and others pulled Baiyun, and both sides played a sharp game, and found that the other party had deep wisdom roots, and both admired each other.

Zen Master Baiyun was very disappointed in this dark world, and he and his disciples escorted the Golden Buddha to the Great Dao Temple, wanting to magnify the Dharma, but he also knew in his heart that it would be difficult. The Golden Buddha is indeed able to restrain demons, but it is a lump of gold to mortals! The people of Guobei County didn't feel the inspiration of Buddhism at all when they saw the Golden Buddha, and they all showed greedy eyes.

It was a rare occasion for him to meet four eminent monks, each of whom had a deeper understanding of the Dharma than he did! Of course, the four holy monks are still traditional monks, and their greatest skill is the Dharma. In front of them, Bai Yun felt ashamed, these four people were the enlightened Dharma, and he was more like a warlock. The four holy monks also have deep admiration for Bai Yun, the other party's mana is so wonderful, and it is really unimaginable that he cultivates Buddha and cultivates supernatural powers.

Because of this mutual admiration between the two sides, the atmosphere was very good, and Bai Yun rarely showed a smile. He said, "There is a Lanruo Temple in the mountains and forests ahead, so we might as well go there and have a good exchange, all the masters." ”

Xuanzang has long seen that the little monk of Shifang has Buddha nature, that is, "at a glance, he is suitable for being a monk". This person is really interesting, if he lives in the Lanruo Temple that his predecessors said, he will definitely interact with the demons and monsters there, Xuanzang just went over to watch the excitement, and spread the Tang Buddhism by the way.

"Shifang, you take care of the Buddha's sutras here, and I will go back with a few masters."

These five masters are not only verbal exchanges, they will also exchange their own martial arts, Baiyun Zen Master can fly, and the four holy monks can also fly with qi. Because they all have a habit of being a Buddhist man, they have to take some strange things as examples, and when they can fly, they will look for the most suitable environment.

For example, how about the spring water, how to talk in Lanruo Temple, and how to fly to the forest and land on a natural spring to speak, full of Zen?

Xuanzang began to fool Shifang: "Shifang, how do you understand the Dharma?" Of course, Shifang was confused, and he said embarrassedly: "Senior brother, I'm a wise root, let's not talk about Buddhism." I'd better go read the Bible. ”

Xuanzang had to talk to him, and he said first: "In my opinion, the most fundamental thing in Buddhism is that all living beings have Buddha nature, which is the foundation for us to cultivate Buddha and save people, just because everyone can become a Buddha, so all people are the same at the root, and there is no distinction between high and low, this is the equality of all beings, and it is the real great compassion......

Shifang listened with deep admiration, but also had questions: "Are all beings equal?" Senior brother, if there are powerful ghosts and demons, is it wrong for them to eat people? People eat all kinds of animals, and those demons eat people......"

Xuanzang: "...... hell, why did he block me from this direction?" In the original world, man was the only intelligent being, that is, standing at the top of the food chain, saying that all beings are equal, that is, man should be equal. In fact, this is the caste system of Tianzhu at the beginning of the birth of Buddhism, but unfortunately the latter is too strong, and Buddhism has not been scared.

Later, because of the rulers' own class interests, they favored to divide people into hierarchies, and Buddhism does not say that all people become Buddhas, but only that a person's wealth is the accumulation of virtue in the previous life, and a person's poverty is the creation of evil in the previous life, and the latter deserves to be squeezed by the former, which is a kind of compromise and regression.

But there are demons and monsters in this world! Xuanzang reacted quickly, and immediately made up a new rhetoric, Tang Buddhism, in fact, the core comes from the good words of the world. The principle is that the interests of the Tang Dynasty are higher than those of other races, and by extension, the interests of the human race are higher than those of other races, Xuanzang thought about the situation faced by Huang Chao and immediately realized this.

"Of course it's wrong, because man is the primate of all things, the protagonist of the Heavenly Dao, and the prosperity and development of this world is rooted in the human race. Do you see that those demon cultivators will eventually transform into human form? Human beings occupy a fundamental position in heaven and earth, not to mention that we are also human beings, and our compassion and wisdom are not enough to benefit the people, let alone those murderous aliens. Of course, if we can transform those demons who are not evil and make them merge with the human race, it will be a merit. Amitabha. ”

An important role of Datang Buddhism is to spread it widely among other races, so that they can honestly accept the rule of Datang. Xuanzang had a flash of inspiration at this moment, comprehended the essence of Buddhism, and persuaded the demons and monsters to become his subordinates, so that they would not harm Datang and contribute to Datang's efforts...... This is the "crossing" in the mysterious world!

"Wow, Senior Brother Xuanzang, are you okay?" Shifang watched Xuanzang suddenly fall into silence, with an expression of great realization on his face, and only felt chills all over his body. This situation reminded him of the scene of the death of a high monk, and those people had an epiphany before they died, which was so peaceful and quiet.

Xuanzang came to life: "I'm fine." Shifang breathed a sigh of relief, it was really not easy to be with this kind of Shinto guy. Xuanzang is also speechless, comparing the two of us, who is more anxious?

Zen Master Baiyun and the four Daoxin people came back from discussing the law, and they were very rewarding, and the four Daoxin people had more spells to ask for advice from this Buddhist fellow Taoist, so everyone stayed in Lanruo Temple.

Bai Yun looked at the four old and one young and five peers, and his face was a little worried: "I heard that there are powerful ghosts in Lanruo Temple, please gather everyone at night, our master and apprentice carry Buddha statues to exorcise demons, but they can be safe." ”

Emperor Xin said cheerfully: "Amitabha, thank you for reminding me." They each talked about their age, and the four old monks were older than Baiyun Zen Master when they broke the void, and they became "senior brothers" at this time. It's a pity that their cultivation is at the top in the martial arts world, and they are a little powerless here.

At night, Grandma's eyes suddenly widened, and she felt that a strange treasure appeared in Lanruo Temple! It intuitively felt that that kind of thing would do it a great good! This time, the robbers in the town did not see the golden Buddha carried by Shifang, so no one ran to the forest at night to die.

The Tree Demon Grandma didn't want to do anything with the old monk, but it sensed that there were seven monks in Lanruo Temple during the day, and there were five old guys among them! According to the laws of the cultivation world, the older the mana, the deeper the mana, and it was extremely jealous of this group of monks. But now she's still going to make a move!

The strong wind suddenly blew open the doors and windows of Lanruo Temple, and Zen Master Baiyun and the others who were meditating in the house suddenly opened their eyes.

"Demons are in trouble!" Bai Yun shouted, "I'm going to subdue the demons, please stay here, there are Buddha statues in the evil world!" ”
