"In your opinion, how can you be a superior Wendao?" said Jingchen Sage with a frown and looked at Bai Cangdong.

"You want to take me as an apprentice and teach me the superior Wendao, why are you asking me now?" The corners of Bai Cangdong's mouth turned up slightly, and then he said: "Okay, it's not impossible to teach you what is the superior Wendao, but I am not your master, and I have no obligation to teach you in vain, if you want me to teach you, then you have to pay some price." ”

"I am bent on seeking the Tao, I have not stepped out of Jingtai Island for ten years, I have no long things, except for the heart Chinese Dao, I am afraid there is nothing else to give you." Sage Jingchen said lightly.

"I don't want anything else, just a saint-grade exercise. Bai Cangdong said his purpose.

Trapped on this Jingtai Island, if Jingchen refuses to teach him exercises, he has no exercises to practice, even if he has the Holy Product True Life Dao Seal, it is useless, and it is impossible to be promoted to the first rank of scribe in this life. Now for Bai Cangdong, the exercises are the most important.

Seeing that the Jingchen sage was silent, Bai Cangdong waved his hand and said: "It turns out that the realm of the so-called Jingchen Sage who is the first in the Tao of Literature is nothing more than that, just because I didn't say it, you can sit in the well and watch the sky, and treat this worthless path as the Avenue of Literature to entertain yourself." ”

"Tell me, if you really have some insight, I can consider teaching you the exercises. Sage Jingchen said.

"Then you don't have to think about it. Bai Cangdong pursed his lips disdainfully, walked straight to the big tree, sat down against the roots of the big tree, found a comfortable position to lean there and close his eyes to rest, as if he had completely lost interest in talking to Jingchen Sage, but he still muttered to himself in a low voice: "Such unsightly words can be regarded as Taoist poetry? ”

"Okay, if you can really say the truth that convinces me, I will pass on your sacred exercises, but if you can't say what convinces me, from now on, you must honestly follow me to practice the Tao, and you must not have other thoughts. "As the saying goes, the Buddha also has three points of fire, not to mention that the sage of Jingchen is the first person in the literature and Taoism of Nanli Academy, even the dean of Nanli Academy has good respect for him, and others are even more respectful, where has he been so looked down and belittled, and he has been so belittled by a small scribe in the field he is best at, even if he knows that it is Bai Cangdong's method of agitation, Jingchen Sage can not do Gujing Wubo ignore it.

"Okay, we'll make up our minds, you're a virtuous man, don't be fooled if you lose when the time comes. Bai Cangdong patted his ass and stood up from the ground, looked at Jingchen Sage and said.

"I don't say a word. Jingchen Sage looked at Bai Cangdong and said indifferently: "Tell me, where is my poem unsightly?"

"This poem should be your own perception and realm, right?" Bai Cangdong asked rhetorically.

"Not bad. Sage Mirror Dust nodded.

"Then it's no wonder, it's no wonder that you write such a Taoist poem, after all, your realm is too low, and it is rare to be able to write such a Taoist poem. "Bai Cangdong has a look on his face, you have done a good job, but you have a stupid expression.

If it weren't for a person like Jingchen Sage who specializes in self-cultivation and Taoism, let alone a sage, even if he was a real person, at this time, he would have already been born by Bai Cangdong's first Buddha and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and he split Bai Cangdong with one palm.

"Well, I'll also make a Taoist poem, and you will naturally understand the difference between high and low. Bai Cangdong saw that the sage of Jingchen was a person who was dedicated to cultivating the Dao, if he reasoned with him normally, I am afraid that he would not listen to him no matter what, and would only stick to the Tao in his heart, only by breaking the Dao in his heart and letting his Dao heart fail, could he have a fair dialogue with him.

"Good. The sage of Jingchen replied lightly.

Bai Cangdong walked to the mirror stone, looked at the poem engraved on the mirror stone, and read: "The body is like a Bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror platform." Always wipe diligently, don't make dust. ”

After finishing reading, Bai Cangdong looked at the sage of Jingchen and asked, "This is the realm of cultivation you are pursuing?" So you hide in this island and don't go out of your way to cultivate the Dao of Literature, thinking that in this way you can cultivate the Dao of Literature?"

"Yes, if you practice diligently over time, and sharpen your Dao mind and body from time to time, you will naturally be able to reach a higher realm. The sage nodded again.

"Hehe, then you can see how the realm of my poem is. Bai Cangdong stretched out his hand and grabbed it, summoned the dragon scale blade, held it in his hand, and slashed directly towards the mirror stone.

Jingchen Sage's face changed suddenly, and he wanted to stop it but it was too late, Bai Cangdong was too close, and his movements were too sudden, Jingchen Sage didn't expect that Bai Cangdong would want to engrave the Taoist poems he made on the mirror stone.

This mirror stone itself is not precious, but there are poems engraved by the heart of heaven on it, and it is also the sustenance of the sage of the mirror dust, and now it has been left by Bai Cangdong on it, just like a stain on the heart of the mirror sage, which makes the mirror dust sage on the spot.

"What are you doing, don't stop it quickly. The boy cried out in surprise, he also knew how important this mirror stone was to Mirror Dust.

Bai Cangdong ignored the boy, walked away from the dragon and snake, and engraved the four proverbs on the mirror stone in a chic manner, and looked back at the sage of Jingchen and smiled: "What do you think of my poem?"

After the sage of Jingchen who was originally there looked at the four proverbs engraved by Bai Cangdong, the whole person was even more like dementia, his eyes stared directly at the four proverbs, and he didn't even blink his eyelids, but just muttered in his mouth: "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform." There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust...... Where to stir up dust......"

Looking at the stunned appearance of the sage of Jingchen, Bai Cangdong smiled secretly in his heart, the sage of Jingchen is a person with great wisdom, he Bai Cangdong thinks that he is not comparable, but the proverb he wrote is also a person of great wisdom, and it happens to be the poem made by the sage of Jingchen, and the sage of Jingchen can't accept it if he wants to.

These two proverbs are the very famous Buddhist disputes between Shenxiu and Huineng on the earth, and the proverbs made by Shenxiu are the Taoist poems written by Jingchen, and the two are word-for-word. What Bai Cangdong engraved is a new proverb made by Hui Neng in response to Shenxiu, pushing Buddhism to a new realm.

These two proverbs have also been passed down through the ages, but the proverbs made by Shenxiu only exist as a foil, and the realm is naturally far inferior to Huineng's.

And Huineng's proverb also caused the Taoist heart of the sage of Jingchen to shake, as if he had an understanding of standing in front of the mirror stone, staring directly at the proverb engraved by Bai Cangdong on the mirror stone, it was three days and three nights, not moving, not speaking, not eating, not moving, no wind and rain, people and animals have turned into stone statues, it is difficult to distinguish the appearance of the body.
