Looking at such a grand scene, Li Xian's heart also rose a touch of pride, one day, he will hold this Buddhist event in the 'There Temple' on Yue Mountain, and the orthodoxy of Buddhism will be erected in the Central Plains, which will never be worse than Yaqing Temple!

When Li Xian's heart was full of pride, Leng Hao Zaba came to his side, so quietly, Li Xian was still taken aback.

"Amitabha, you're scared as a teacher. "Li Xian always speaks so directly in front of his apprentices.

Zaba's tall stature, knotted muscles, and a black felt hat made him think that if he didn't look closely, he would have thought that the robbers came from somewhere.

And Zhaba, who was supposed to be infinitely beautiful, had a bitter face at this time, pointing to the monks behind him who were sitting around playing Zen and waving to him, and said helplessly: "Amitabha, please forgive me, master, and the poor monks don't want to." ”

Amitabha, poor monk?

Li Xian keenly captured the difference in the names in Zaba's words. Isn't he a lay disciple like the second battalion commander and Zhu Bajie, but a monk who is a monk?

Seeing Li Xian staring at the black felt hat on top of his head, Zaba also took off the hat to reveal his bald head, put his hands together and said with a smile: "Amitabha, without the consent of the master, the apprentice shaved his hair first, and asked the master to forgive him."

But fortunately, there is no scarring, the law name has never been taken, the rules have not been broken, and there is still some room to make up for it. ”

Seeing that Zaba was not so literary when he spoke to him, he didn't have to guess the meaning himself, Li Xian was still quite satisfied.

As for what he said about breaking the rules of master and apprentice, Li Xian, who was already careless, didn't care much about it, but became a little interested in what he said, 'Hurry up with power'.

is used to playing meditation with those old monks, and when he sees a person like Li Xian, who will float on the surface when he sees anything in his heart, Zaba can guess what he is thinking.

But after all, he is a master, and Zaba doesn't dare to be disrespectful, so without waiting for Li Xian to ask, he hurriedly sang a Buddha horn and explained: "Tell the master, because the poor monk also wants to participate in the election for the Living Buddha."

After making the decision, it was not far from the lama conference, so it was too late to communicate with the master, so I could only make a decision on my own and shave my head first. ”

When Zaba said that he was going to run for the Living Buddha, it was tantamount to dropping a bombshell in Li Xian's heart, and he was immediately bombarded.

However, if you think about it carefully, you can understand what Zaba did.

Becoming a monk is a common thing among the common people in the Western Barbarian Land, and even among the nobles and nobles of the barbarian country, but it is divided into hair and no hair.

But it is precisely because of this universality that the whole barbarian country believes in Buddhism, which will cause a crisis in the royal family......

It is his own will that Zhaba wants to become a monk, but it is probably the family's intention to run for the Living Buddha.

It is necessary to mention here that not everyone is qualified to become a living Buddha.

One year after the death of each living Buddha, the ceremony of running for the living Buddha is initiated, and the interval is about once every 100 years, and it is always set up in the thousand-year-old temple Yaqing Temple.

When running for the Living Buddha, each temple in the world will first select itself, and select two to five through competitions such as Buddhist scriptures and meditation, and young monks who have not yet reached the age of 20 since the death of the previous Living Buddha will go to the birthplace of Buddhism - Yaqing Temple under the leadership of the abbot or steward!

And every living Buddha will leave behind some Buddha relics when they are cremated and ascended after they pass away. For example, the most common relics, or the crystalline phalanges, the metamorphosis of the Yuan Infant suit, and so on......

Those who are candidates only need to walk through these things, and those who have a response to the Buddha will advance to the next stage of the election, and if not, they will be eliminated.

As for the next stage, I heard that they were dragged to a small black house, and the meditation and enlightenment of a pillar of incense lasted for an hour, and after all the participation, the current abbot of Yaqing Temple would announce the final result.

As for what happened in the little black room, it was as if the candidates had collectively lost their memories after they came out, and no matter how much they recalled, it was difficult to think of a single remaining memory. This little black house, on the contrary, has become a mystery that no one knows.

Of course, the reincarnated living Buddha is not necessarily selected from among the young monks from all over the world, for example, the fourth and tenth living Buddhas, and the sixteenth generation of Li Xian's cheap master are all selected among the people.

If you don't spend a few months in the barbarian sea election, don't think about completing the ritual, and if you haven't found the reincarnated living Buddha, you have to choose from the Central Plains Five Elements Kingdom, which has a larger population.

Once such a large project is launched, it is not simply a matter of completing it in a month due to the mixed interests.

And Li Xian's cheap master, the 16th Living Buddha 'Pure Heart', was selected under the layers of Taoism in the Tianshui Kingdom of the Central Plains......
