The Idiot Monk is a legend, and of course, there is no shortage of legends in our circles - however, the legend of the Idiot Monk is not simple.

There are many rumors about him, some true and some false, some credible, and some unpredictable.

However, in any case, one thing is genuine, that is, he is the master of the Master of Empty Purity, as the first person of Zen Buddhism, and now the master of the leader of the Buddha world, no matter what, the obsessive monk will not be far behind.

According to the rumors, the idiot monk did not speak for the first time until he was two years old, but unlike other babbling children, the first sentence he said was not a simple "mother" or "father", but a Buddha name, and a "Amitabha Buddha", which was still spread in the era of underdeveloped information hundreds of years ago, when it was called the wonder of ten miles and eight towns, and the imperial court also sent people down to investigate.

Of course, this is only the beginning of the legend of the idiot monk, three years old began to be self-taught, although he does not know many words, but as long as the words appear on the Buddhist scriptures, he can recognize them, and there are many rare words in the Buddhist scriptures, at that time many scholars may not read correctly, but he spoke very fluently.

When he was five years old, he followed the elders of the family to the White Horse Temple for the first time, and before entering the gate, he suddenly stopped, looked at the gate of the White Horse Temple stupidly, and did not step in, and cried bitterly on the spot.

The elders of the clan hurriedly asked him, "Why are you crying?" Do you want to eat sugar? ”

But I unexpectedly heard the idiot monk crying and shouting: "As long as I go in, I won't be able to get out of this door in this life." ”

The elders of the clan laughed, and explained to him that you don't have to be a monk to enter the temple, and if you are a monk, you can also return to the vulgar, as a result, what I never expected was that he dragged the idiot into the temple gate of the White Horse Temple, but happened to meet the presiding officer of the White Horse Temple at that time to open the altar and preach, as a result, in the vast sea of pilgrims and people, he saw at a glance the idiot with tears on his face, and named him to stay, and he must be his disciple.

White Horse Temple is the first temple in the world, even in ancient times it is also a royal favored place, the successive generations of hosts are also there royal background, as a result, the idiot was left behind, since then to take refuge in Buddhism, never stepped out of Buddhism.

Of course, his legend is much more than that, however, he is special because his legend is not based on fighting, in the record he has never killed a human in his life, not even an animal, since he began to practice Buddhism, he has basically floated as a way of progress, not even an ant has ever been crushed to death, let alone with a human being.

However, whether it was the Tantric Dharma King who went down to Luoyang to discuss the Buddha hundreds of years ago, or the once popular individual Zhang Tianmo Taoist came to the White Horse Temple to discuss the scriptures, or the Heavenly Demon Sanren, one of the Seven Demon Caves in Mobei, stole into the White Horse Temple and wanted to steal the Buddha's treasures, he resolved them one by one, and the Heavenly Demon Sanren went to the door of the White Horse Temple every year after that night, and kowtowed three times in a row until the year of his death.

This series of legends may not be as good as my rebellion, or it may not be as good as Xu Buddha, Sima Tian They relied on strong spells to fight to gain fame, but they used alternative methods to achieve the name of a generation of famous monks and idiots.

But how deep is the Dharma of foolishness? Whether he is a monk who talks on paper, no one doubts this, because he taught the Master of Empty Purity, because Master Empty Pure has been asked more than once about the gap between himself and the idiot, and every time the Master of Empty Purity will smile and say, "The monks don't speak, and there is still a gap between me and my master." ”

However, such a legendary figure, his later years were extremely bleak, because in his later years, he became the first famous monk to enter the demon, although this matter was not circulated among the people, and the common people and even the emperor did not know. But the circle still heard rumors, saying that on a rainy night, when lightning and thunder were roaring, he suddenly rushed out of his meditation room, stood in the rain, stretched out his hand to the sky, and laughed wildly.

At that time, Kong Jing and many brothers witnessed this scene, and there were also monks in the White Horse Temple who saw it, saying that at that time, the idiot pointed to the sky, and suddenly shouted after a long laugh: "Lingshan is not there, the Buddha is not there, the golden light is still golden, but it has been stained with blood." This kind of Buddhahood, such immortality, what use do I want, I am stupid, I am not as good as becoming a demon! ”

After that night, he became a demon and disappeared into the sky of the White Horse Temple, after more than ten years, the empty net has become the host of the White Horse Temple, but received a message that the fool became a demon and died mysteriously, and then the body was activated, leaving two relics, and now it is still enshrined in the inner hall of the pagoda in the backyard of the White Horse Temple.

He was only 181 years old when he passed away, which is old and immortal for mortals, but for the masters in the supernatural circle, this age is considered to be a premature death.

There are many people who say that if the practice of ignorance is not complete, the emptiness may not reach the current height, and some people say that there is a separation between the practice of ignorance and emptiness, and many strange conspiracy theories have been invented.

However, 200 years ago, before the death of the famous individual Zhang Tianmo Daoren, he once said such a sentence to his disciples, which was intriguing and seemed to have spied a trace of secret.

At that time, he was full of white hair, and he said angrily: "In my life, if I really admire the person, there is only one person, and that is the foolish monk." What I admire is not his profound Dharma and innate wisdom, but his courage. Many people know the truth but don't dare to admit it, but he has already spied a trace of the secret of the Western Spirit Mountain, but he has the courage to enter the demon to fight, this boldness, I am not far less than ......"

Today, more than 200 years later, the rumors about the fool have long been gone, and many things have become unsolved mysteries, however, I, a junior in the supernatural circle, are far from expecting that I would have the opportunity to meet this legendary monk today, let alone that he has changed so much today.

In the meditation room of the White Horse Temple, the foolish person was like crazy, pointing at the empty net and laughing and scolding, but I saw that the face of the master of the empty net was a little pale, but he was not really angry.

If you are obsessed with the devil, the emptiness of the previous life will also be demonized, how will the emptiness of this life be chosen? Whether to become a Buddha or become a demon, he has already stood on the junction line, and he only needs to take one step to make a conclusion, however, he has not taken this step for a long time.

With a wave of his hand, a pure Buddha power fell on the body of the idiot, but this Buddha power did not have the effect of attacking, but had a very clear feeling, the monk was covered by this pure Buddha power, and suddenly the Buddha light on his body revealed a black fierce light, and the Buddha light played by the master of the empty purity was shattered into pieces, this scene seemed to be plain, but I could feel the danger in the meditation room.

However, after this fight, the state of the idiot settled down a little, and he sat down cross-legged again, the golden mang on his body was slightly constricted, he looked at the emptiness, sighed and said: "What you said is actually right, I am just a demonic intent left by the idiot before he died, and it takes hundreds of years of penance to recover a trace of his true body." But, at the end of the day, I still represent the will of the idiot, and I sit here and want to ask you a question. ”

Kongjing did not answer, but stared at the idiot monk, but heard the idiot monk pause for a moment and asked, "You have already stood on the dividing line, do you want to become a Buddha or become a demon?" ”

For other eminent monks, this is not a problem, who has eaten enough of the Dharma for so many years, but in the end they go to the demons?

But this problem falls on the body of the Master of Empty Purity, he has no way to escape, although I don't know the secret, but I can more or less guess some, maybe the master and apprentice have already watched the shocking changes in the Western Spirit Mountain, so they have wavered about the Buddha.

"I ......" Master Void Purification hesitated for the first time, and after a long moment before continuing, "I want to go all the way on this dividing line. ”

In this way, not only let the idiot but also surprise me who was listening in a piece, go on the dividing line, neither become a Buddha nor enter the demon, at first glance it sounds like a method, but there must be a road ahead, even I, the yin and yang agent of the people in the Daomen, know that you can walk this dividing line, but it can't go long, and the choice is a matter of time.

Even if he is a genius, even if he has the ability to fight with Xu Buddha at a young age, but after all, he is also a human being, and it is impossible to break the rules of Buddhism for thousands of years.

"Haha, it's so capricious, hahaha......"

His laughter echoed in the meditation room, but in the blink of an eye, he stopped laughing, his eyes were cold, staring at the emptiness as if scrutinizing, and whispered, "Do you understand what you mean?" Even if Lingshan is shocked, it will not allow people like you to make no choices, do you have the ability to deal with the entire Lingshan? Of course, if you rely on Xu Fo and Duanmusen and Sima Tian, you do have a chance to fight, but don't forget, on the Lingshan Mountain, the existence of the Heavenly Buddha Great Realm will suppress the cultivation of all people outside the Buddha Gate, and when the time comes, can they really help you? ”

Kongjing didn't speak, but looked at Deng Ran who was standing at the door, and said thoughtfully: "It's not that I don't have a chance of winning, I was really desperate three years ago, but I met the Ninth Buddha Soul, and I have hope of fighting against Lingshan!" ”
