Zhao Yun didn't mean to stop talking, and continued: "Let me tell you, old bald donkey, I'm a teacher, and I have studied history very much, how can you, an old monk, not have a scar? ”

It turns out that the ring scar is also known as the incense scar. It refers to the scars left on the body by Buddhists who burn incense in order to purify their bodies. Their actions are either based on the idea of sacrificing one's self or on the idea of cutting off self-grasping.

The number of incense burns is generally one, two, three, six, nine, and twelve, and the twelve points indicate that it is the highest "bodhisattva vow" in the vows.

"Amitabha, although the old man has not received the precept of burning, but he is also a true monk, in fact, Buddhism does not burn the precept scar, and in the Buddhist precepts, there is no provision for burning the precept scar on the head of the person being taught." The old monk was not angry at Zhao Yun's words, but patiently explained.

The custom of burning ring scars is said to have originated in the Yuan Dynasty, when a monk Zhide was revered by Yuan Shizu, and when he passed on the ordination, he stipulated that each person who received the ordination burned incense on the head, and the novice ordination burned three pillars of incense, and the bhikshu ordained burned twelve pillars of incense, as a lifelong vow.

Such a small invention, later quietly spread, and passed down from generation to generation, this is of course a kind of bad habit that mutilates the body, is a native product of Han Buddhist culture, but in December 1983, the enlarged meeting of the Council of the Buddhist Association of China made the "Resolution on the Issue of the Transmission of Ordination in Han Buddhist Temples". The resolution stated that the practice of burning a scar on the ordination person's head at the time of ordination "is not an original Buddhist ritual and will be abolished in the future because it is harmful to physical health." From then on, the newly ordained Han monks will no longer have a scar on the top of their heads.

"I don't care if you're a real monk or not, anyway, I want to talk to you, please leave!" Zhao Yun really couldn't think of anything to refute, and people always greeted him with a smile, how could he be embarrassed to say something radical?

Zhang Lin glared at Zhao Yun, bowed deeply, and said, "Master, please forgive him for his ignorance, we still have something to do, so let's take the first step!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Lin gave Brother Rat a look, and pulled Zhao Yun to leave.

"Wait!" The old monk's voice was like a bell, and Zhao Yun's ears were buzzing, and at this time, the old monk was already in front of the three of them.

"Master, you and I don't interfere with the river water, what do you mean by doing this?" Brother Rat asked with a somewhat gloomy face.

The old monk laughed and said, "This son has a deep Buddha relationship, but his inferiority is stubborn, and I want to be transformed into him." ”

"My brother doesn't have the heart to become a monk, so I won't bother you!" Brother Rat frowned and said.

Zhao Yun was not happy when he heard it, it turned out that he had just understood that this old bald donkey wanted to make himself a monk?

"Are you sick? Even if you become a monk yourself, you still want me to become a monk? No way, you hurry up and go away, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind! Zhao Yun couldn't help but say angrily.

"I'm not leaving, the old man has made up his mind!" The old monk shook his head and said.

Brother Rat stepped forward and said angrily, "You! ”

Zhang Lin hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and whispered to Brother Mouse: "This old monk is by no means ordinary, and there are too many people here, and it is not good for us to fight!" ”

"May I ask what the master's name is?" Zhang Lin Shili asked.

"Old Guy Hyde!" The old monk replied with his hands folded.

Zhang Lin searched hard in his mind, but he still hadn't heard of the old monk Haide, but he still said politely: "Hello Master Haide, my name is Zhang Lin, and I am the daughter of the contemporary Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain, I hope you will see the face of your father, don't embarrass us!" ”

Zhang Lin said that it is sonorous and powerful, neither humble nor arrogant, but it is also soft and hard, the meaning is obvious, we have a backer, don't look for our trouble, and at the same time are very respectful to the old monk, not only to give the old monk enough face, but also not **.

But the old monk's actions made people helpless, the old monk didn't speak, just looked at Zhao Yun with a smile and shook his head.

Zhang Lin couldn't help frowning, thinking to herself, why is this old monk so difficult.

As soon as Zhao Yun was about to get angry, he felt two fresh winds blowing, and Zhang Lin looked anxiously at the open space next to him.

Looking at Brother Rat and Old Monk Haide, they both stood motionless on the spot, but Zhang Lin was staring at the open space anxiously.

"What's going on? Why didn't Brother Rat and the old bald donkey move? Zhao Yun asked Zhang Lin.

"The two of them are out of their bodies fighting! See for yourself! Zhang Lin explained without replying.

Zhao Yun then understood what was going on, but when he thought that the old monk could get out of his body, he knew that the big thing was not good, and this old guy was definitely not easy to mess with!

"The sky is clear, the yin and the yang are clear, open my eyes, everything is clear! Haste as a law! Zhao Yun pinched the trick and recited, but what puzzled Zhao Yun was that he cast two spells in a row, but he didn't open the magic eye, and then tried to open the ghost eye, and found that it still didn't work!

Zhao Yun anxiously said to Zhang Lin: "I can't perform the spell now, what should I do?" ”

Zhang Lin didn't have time to take care of Zhao Yun, and directly helped Zhao Yun open the ghost eye, and Zhao Yun saw the situation in the field clearly.

At this time, Brother Mouse's primordial spirit has turned into a white-haired rat more than one person tall, and is fighting with the old monk Hyde, don't look at the old monk Hyde is old and frail, but when he fights, he is whirring between raising his legs and feet, and he doesn't feel tired at all.

I saw that Brother Mouse's whole body was full of white gas, and the Buddha light flashed on the old monk Haide's body, and every time Brother Mouse's fierce offensive could be easily resolved by the old monk, but the old monk did not attack, but took defense as an attack, which made Brother Rat a little overwhelmed, so he had to compete for endurance.

Zhao Yun and Zhang Lin were in a hurry, Zhang Lin's Taoism seemed very powerful to ordinary people, but in a fight at this level, he couldn't rely on it at all.

"What to do? Let's figure out a way? I think the old bald donkey has always had the upper hand! Zhao Yun asked anxiously.

"I'm also in a hurry, I can't participate at all, now all we can do is wait!" Zhang Lin replied helplessly.

Zhao Yun's hands were sweating, for fear that Brother Rat would be in any danger, although he had not been in contact with Brother Rat for a long time, he had an indescribable emotion with Brother Rat from the bottom of his heart, and it seemed that he had been a brother of life and death for many years, so Zhao Yun was extremely worried about Brother Mouse's safety.

"Brother Mouse, come on! Can't be like Bai Suzhen, who was caught by Fahai and pressed under the Leifeng Tower! Zhao Yun thought of the legend of the White Snake and muttered a little hysterically.

Zhang Lin glared at Zhao Yun and said, "Shut your crow's mouth!" ”

At this moment, the old monk Haide conjured a golden bowl out of nowhere, threw it into the air, and suddenly emitted a thousand feet of Buddha light from the golden bowl, enveloping Brother Mouse, no matter how hard Brother Rat struggled, he couldn't get rid of it.

"Boom!" The old monk Haide recited the six-character mantra, and the golden bowl shone again, and at the same time, a 'swastika' symbol slowly came out of the golden bowl and went straight to Brother Mouse!
