Monk Qiuyue asked calmly, "Does the master know how Daoist Brother Qiuye commented on Buddhism?"

Master Cangxue shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Monk Qiuyue said slowly: "Brother Qiuye said that Buddhism is domineering!"

After Master Cangxue was stunned for a moment, he shook his head and laughed: "This statement is novel. ”

Monk Qiuyue was Gujing Wubo, and said with a light smile: "In fact, in my opinion, Taoism is domineering, and Buddhism is hypocrisy. ”

Master Cangxue's face froze. Silent.

Monk Qiuyue continued: "Buddhism says that the world is a people, which world is Ji, and who is it?"

Master Cangxue was speechless.

Monk Qiuyue smiled silently.

Master Cangxue suddenly stopped and asked, "Where did you hear this?"

Monk Qiuyue shook his head and said, "What you think." ”

Master Cangxue said solemnly: "Be cautious." ”

Qiu Yue smiled: "Murong is not here. ”

Master Cangxue looked at the loess path under his feet and said, "Murong went to the grassland. ”

Qiu Yue said meaningfully: "Murong Buddhism is very good. ”

Master Cangxue said: "The old monk is ashamed, he has participated in the Dharma all his life, but he can't argue with Miss Murong for 20 years of Buddhism. ”

Monk Qiuyue said: "Therefore, the master can only be the first person in the outer gate, and only the master will have compassion for those who die." ”

Master Cangxue bowed his head and said nothing.

Monk Qiuyue returned from the eastern capital and was silent for a long time. He thought about a lot of things, and he figured out a lot of things. But he found that the more things he figured out, the more he didn't understand.

He shook his head and sighed: "The deeper you cultivate the Buddha, the more you doubt the Buddha, and the farther away from the Buddha." Now the saints do not come out, and all things are ruined. The compassion of the Buddha and the inaction of the Taoist ancestors, how many points are left?"

Master Cangxue's face was pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "There is still something after all." ”

Monk Qiuyue turned around and said, "The master has a saying, the master has one point of the Buddha's mercy, and the Taoist sect has three points of Taoist inaction. ”

Cang Xue was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and did not speak.

"The real person in charge of the sect wanted to do nothing, but the Dao Sect didn't agree, the seven peak masters didn't agree, and the countless Dao Sect disciples and Elders Keqing didn't agree. ”

"The master wants to be compassionate, but there are too many things that he can't give up. ”

Master Cangxue recited the Buddha's name for a long time.

Qiu Yue continued: "Brother Akiba Daoist is a person with great ambitions, he does not have the inaction of the Taoist ancestor, but he has the spirit of a Confucian master. This matter of rectifying the world was originally within the scope of Confucianism, but it is a pity that the backbone of Confucianism has long been broken, and it is not as good as a group of Taoist priests. ”

"And our group of monks is even worse, the peaceful and prosperous times are better, and when we get to the troubled times, we have to learn to be a turtle in the troubled times. ”

Master Cangxue said: "Zen master is a person with wisdom roots. ”

Monk Qiuyue didn't care and smiled: "Master praise." ”

Before they knew it, the two had reached the end of this loess path.

There is an old locust tree at the end, and there is a simple fortune-telling stall under the tree, and an old Taoist priest with a two-handful of goatee is sitting behind the stall with his eyes closed.

When Master Cang Xue walked past this fortune-telling booth, he suddenly stopped.

"Can this Taoist master count the poor monks? Monk Qiuyue smiled.

The old Taoist priest raised his eyelids and said with a smile: "The monk is looking for a Taoist priest to tell his fortune, this is a strange story." ”

Qiu Yue still smiled and said, "Does that long count or not?"

"Count. ”

The old Taoist priest opened his eyes, looked Monk Qiuyue up and down, and said, "Why not?"

Monk Qiuyue titheed and said, "Then ask the Taoist chief to calculate the bad luck for the poor monk?"

The old Taoist priest touched his long beard under his chin and said, "The night is long, there is a dilemma, internal and external discord, and there is a lack of credit. ”

Monk Qiuyue was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "It turned out to be a bad omen, so how about asking the Taoist to calculate the result of this trip for me?"

Lao Tao is not like other blue fortune tellers, and the Buddha is nothing more than that. He just looked at Monk Qiuyue in silence, and after being silent for a long time, he said: "The clouds cover the half moon, and the hidden turmoil is hidden, so you should be cautious and keep you safe." ”

Monk Qiuyue was silent for a long time, and said to himself: "If you do it, there is always some possibility. If it succeeds, even if it takes the life of a poor monk, what's the matter?"

Lao Dao was silent, as if he hadn't heard the muttering of Monk Qiuyue.

Under the big locust tree, an old and a young, one sits and one stands, looking at each other.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and the young monk bowed his head again and said, "Please ask the Taoist chief to calculate the last hexagram for the poor monk." ”

Lao Dao was noncommittal, and asked rhetorically: "Little monk, since you have seen through the hypocrisy of the Buddha, are you willing to learn the Tao?"

Monk Qiuyue raised his head, stared at the old Dao, and asked, "Dao Chief, but do you want to say that the Buddha is the Tao?"

A smile appeared on Lao Dao's face, and he nodded: "Yes, the little monk is a person with wisdom roots. ”

Qiu Yuefu lowered her head again and continued to ask: "Since the Buddha is the Tao, the Tao is the Tao, and the different paths lead to the same end, why should you abandon the Buddha and learn the Tao." ”

Lao Dao laughed: "But that's the reason." ”

He stood up, flicked his sleeve slightly, and tucked the humble fortune-telling booth in front of him into his sleeve. Looking directly at the Qiuyue monk: "Since this is the case, the poor Dao will send you the last hexagram." ”

Qiu Yue said: "Thank you, the head of the channel." ”

Lao Dao said with a smile: "Ups and downs, ever-changing, overcoming all difficulties, can be successful." ”

Qiu Yue silently said goodbye.

The old way turned away and didn't look back.

It's just that his voice came from afar: "Little monk Qiuyue, the evaluation is good, you must not die, Daoist Qiuye, Buddhism Qiuyue, after all, it is still you who can pick up the burden of Buddhism." ”

Master Cangxue, who had been standing aside, sighed and said: "It is rumored that the previous generation of Dao Sect masters accepted a total of nine personal disciples, the eldest disciple is now the head of the Dao Sect, the whereabouts of the closed disciples are unknown, and the remaining seven disciples are the Seven Peaks Peak Master of the Dao Sect. ”

"I heard that the peak master of Tianshu Peak is the best at divination. ”

Monk Qiuyue said flatly: "There are disciples of my Buddha in the Molun Temple, and they are in a high position. In the grassland, he can be called a big man who is regarded as a living Buddha by fools and fools. Many people know that this is the first time that the Dao Sect has made a move, and the Molun Temple is definitely not the last target, but blindly resisting the Dao Sect together with the Sword Sect can easily lead to fire and be involved in this quagmire. Actually, I don't mind joining forces with the Taoist Sect to overkill those unscrupulous disciples who betrayed my Buddha. ”

"In short, now we are in a dilemma, we are afraid that the Dao Sect will sit big, but we don't want to get contaminated with muddy waters, it is really difficult to do. ”

Master Cangxue asked calmly, "You insist on going to the grassland?"

Monk Qiuyue stretched out his right hand, and there was an ordinary rosary with eighteen beads hanging on it, and said lightly: "I can't let it go, so I want to go." I don't want to reverse the situation, I just want to make a good relationship in order to come to the future. ”

Cangxue Master Heshi: "The poor monk sends the Zen master a ride." ”
