"In the fifteenth year of Zhenyuan, that is, in 799 AD, Li Shi of Tang Dezong, in order to find his mother and commemorate his beloved palace maid Qinglian, adopted the suggestion of Gao Shen, a scholar from Zhongshushe, and ordered people to build a temple in the mountain range here, and gave it the name 'Grace Temple'

"The location is a bit nonsensical, it is said that this is the place where Dezong's biological mother Shen, also known as 'Empress Ruizhen', disappeared.

"In the period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Zhu Youzhen, the late emperor of the Later Liang Dynasty, built an identical temple on the opposite hill according to the pattern of the original temple building, and later generations called it 'the Temple of Grievances'.

Later, Emperor Taizu of the Jin Kingdom Emperor Wanyan Liekang came to this temple to practice, built a gate on the road leading to the two temples on the mountain road fork, the lintel was inscribed with the name 'Temple of Grievances', which means that the Buddha Gate, the temple of many grievances in the world.

According to legend, the last place where Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty became a monk was also the Temple of Grievances. ”

Ning Ke felt very lucky, as soon as he arrived at the foot of the Grievance Temple, he met a doctoral student in religious studies from the "Jinling Theological Seminary" who had studied the Grievance Temple very well. The topic of his current research is "On the Debate of the Temple of Grievances".

This person has just passed the year of establishment this year, and he claims to be Liu Xizi. He is of medium height, very quiet, mediocre in appearance, relatively thin, wears a pair of glasses, but is very talkative.

When Hei Niang heard this person talk about Yan Liekang, her little heart trembled a little.

“...... The two sects of grievances and grievances in the temple are easy to distinguish. You see, there are two paths to enter the gate of the mountain temple, and if you go to the left, you will enter the realm of the Grievance Sect, and if you walk on the right, of course, you will enter the realm of the Grace Sect...... You see, those monks behind the gate of the temple, all the monks wearing monk's clothes that open to the left are the disciples of the Enzong, and the other way around, the disciples of the Grievance Sect......"

Ning Ke looked at the temple gate pointed by Liu Xizi, and saw the monks on the left and right sides of the road behind the gate, their clothes were as Liu Xizi said. On one side, the placket of the monk's robe is open to the left, and the other side is open to the right.

"Benevolence and resentment, since ancient times, the two sects have been debated. In order to debate the scriptures, the monks here often fight and slaughter each other. The so-called debate is not only a debate on the scriptures, but also a confirmation of the martial scriptures.

"The scriptures are debated in various Buddhist scriptures, and can be directly answered and answered. It is also divided into 'confrontation' and 'argument'.

"The argument is that two people argue against each other, you cite a verse from a certain Buddhist book as an argument, and I use another Buddhist scripture to defend it...... In this way, those who quote scriptures and classics to each other, and those who can't answer are losers. Two debaters may also have one of them ask questions directly and the other party answers, and no cross-examination is allowed. After a while, and vice versa, until one person is unable to ask a question or cannot answer.

"There is no limit to the number of debaters. The people of the sect are self-reliant, and they are to be refuted. The questioner keeps asking questions, sometimes one person asks, sometimes several people ask questions, and the person being asked has no chance to ask rhetorical questions. In the process of establishing a debate, the questioner can shout loudly, applaud and cheer, dance the rosary, pull the robe and pick up the clothes, pace back and forth, and can also use his hand to touch the other party's body and other actions to make all kinds of ridicule and even insult the other party.

"In school or at a debate held on a television station, secular people tend to talk about him in circles and around when they are debating, and they often change their concepts, so that people forget the topic of the debate. In a Dharma debate, the debater can only answer one of the three possibilities of 'yes', 'no' or 'uncertain', and must not deal with the past, so the outcome of the debater's victory or defeat is immediate.

"When the answerer is asked, the surrounding spectators will shout loudly and shout for the fall, and the loser is often forced to be embarrassed and kill himself immediately......"

When Ning Ke heard this, he couldn't help but interject: "What kind of argument is this?!" The loser who can be forced to commit suicide by the debate of the scriptures, isn't the competition that confirms the martial arts scripture to kill more people?!"

"That's what I want to figure out!"

Liu Xizi continued to talk about the grievance temple......

"There's a debate tomorrow, and you're going to be affected by that kind of heated debate on the spot. No one will sympathize with the monks who lose the debate, but only disgust and hatred......

"And distinguishing the martial arts scriptures is even more cruel, it is a real sword and real gun competition martial arts, exercises, spells, etc., to put it bluntly, it is equivalent to a duel of life and death......

"The age of the monks participating in the debate must not exceed 60 years, and the younger the more popular. The Temple of Grievances has a small debate every 12 years and a major debate every 60 years. There are three rounds of small debates and nine rounds of big debates. The loser of the small debate can still live, but the loser of the big debate will die. Some jumped off the cliff and returned to the west, some killed themselves with sharp blades, or threw themselves into the prepared firewood pile to self-immolate and sit down...... It is really despised by the Buddha world and even the cultivation world.

This practice has lasted for nearly a thousand years and has been passed down from ancient Indian Buddhism. It was only interrupted during the Revolution period, and now it is beginning to rise again. This year marks the year of the Great Debate, which is divided into three phases. The first to third rounds begin on the eighth day of the lunar month, which is tomorrow, the fourth to sixth rounds, which begin on the eighth day of the second month, and the final round of debate, which is the seventh to ninth round, begins on the eighth day of the fourth month on the Buddha's birthday. ”

"That's right, handsome guy, and two beautiful women. Zhu Xizi remembered something and said: "Ordinary secular people in the Debate Society are not allowed to enter the temple to observe, and I am afraid that you will not be able to enter when you come!"

"Uncle, can you go in?" Mu An'er asked curiously.

"Of course, I have the invitation letter from the Grievance Temple to the Huaxia Religious Association and the documents from the Religious Research Committee of Jinling Theological Seminary......"

When Ning Ke heard that this temple was not something that could be entered casually, he thought eagerly in his heart.

From the perspective of time, the monks who fought with him at the Qiantang Qian Wang Temple should not have returned to the Grievance Temple immediately. Otherwise, I wouldn't have kidnapped my mom until now.

The most likely reason for this situation is that those monks lost the treasure soul ring of the town temple. I didn't dare to go back to the temple, so I hid outside and didn't return to the temple until recently......

Ning Ke didn't think about it anymore, did he think about it, did the placket of the monk's robes worn by those monks open to the left or right?

However, the insidious and vicious nature of the monks of the Grievance Temple, Ning Ke has been taught.

Taking hostages was a common method used by the monks in this temple, and both Qin Ye and himself almost became prisoners.

They kidnapped Mom just to blackmail themselves!

Moreover, they kidnapped their mother from the Ning family, which shows that they do not care about the Ning family in the capital.

What do they rely on?!

How dare you be?!

Now I have a lot of desperate means, and I am not afraid of the monks here. After listening to Niu Xizi's words and his understanding of the monks of the Grievance Temple, he could be sure that Mu Ma was kidnapped by the monks here.

The question is, how can I save my mother safely?!

Ning Ke pondered for a long time, and said to Liu Xizi: "On behalf of the Ning family in the capital, we are going to donate a piece of high-grade Xiuyan jade to the temple, can we not wait for me to enter the temple to read the debate?!"

Ning Ke knew that as long as his mother was taken away by the monks of the Grievance Temple, the monks here would definitely know about his situation. Nowadays, no one can avoid the cameras everywhere, facial recognition software is becoming more and more accurate, and in the face of big data, people have almost no privacy.

There is no need to cover it up anymore, and directly enter the temple under the banner of the Ning family in the capital, which makes things simpler.

If you want to fight, you can fight, and if you want to kill, you will show your sword.

The reason why he wanted to show that he was a member of the Ning family was originally true, and secondly, how could the Grievance Temple not know that it was the Ning family's family members who had been kidnapped?......

Under the banner of the Ning family like this, Ning Ke is still a little weak-hearted. He couldn't figure out whether the Ning family would betray himself at a critical moment? When he wanted to kill him, the Ning family would definitely betray him, and if it was painless, they would protect him.

Sometimes he thinks that it would be nice if this is really an internal matter within the family, but in reality, unanimity is just a luxury.

I don't know what's going on, Ning Ke actually has a sense of family......

Perhaps over the years, he has been lacking the care of the big forces.

"Oh?...... That's a funny fact. I have studied almost all aspects of this temple, but I have not studied the donation of this temple. As far as I know, the Temple of Grievances has always had few pilgrims...... However, it is difficult to sustain the temple without donations and fasting. ”

"Uncle, let's tell me about the origin of the Temple of Grievances. ”

Mu An'er interjected on the side.

Usually she has little interest in history, and she hasn't read many history books at home over the years. In her heart, entering the Temple of Grievances is not a matter at all. If she is not allowed to enter, she will contact the head of the Mu family, through the Huaxia Religious Association or the religious management department of the United Front Work Department, it is impossible.

This is the attitude and method of the children of the family.

Liu Xizi saw that the little beauty was quite interested in the origin of the Temple of Grievances, and continued:

"Tang Dezong Li Shi was born in the first year of Tianbao, and was the eldest grandson of Li Heng of Tang Suzong and the eldest son of Li Yu of Tang Dynasty.

"In the fourteenth year of Tianbao (755 AD), Li Shi had just turned fourteen years old, and the biggest turmoil in the Tang Dynasty, the 'Anshi Rebellion', broke out. The following year, Chang'an was lost, Tang Xuanzong fled to Sichuan, and the world was in chaos.

Li Shi was separated from his family, he suffered from the war and the shattering of his family and country, and experienced the grinding and destruction of the war. On the way to escape, Li Shi was cared for by the palace maid Qinglian, who was four years older than him, and the two fell in love and had a relationship. Once the rebels chased him, Qinglian, who was pregnant with Liujia, let him ride his only horse away to escape in order to save Li Shi, and he died under the rebel horse.

"The Anshi Rebellion hurt the two women who were closest to Li Shi. His biological mother Shen is missing, and his lover Qinglian died tragically under the horse.

After Li Shi ascended the throne, he sent people to build a temple here to commemorate these two women. When you enter the Temple of Grievances, you will find that the gods enshrined in this temple are very different from other temples......

"During the reign of Tang Dezong, two strange things he did are worth mentioning. First, send people around to find the birth mother. In the second year of Jianzhong (781), news came that he found his biological mother Shen in Luoyang, and there was joy in Chang'an City at that time.

"It was soon confirmed that the so-called 'Empress Dowager Shen' was just an adopted daughter of Gao Lishi, who resembled Shen because of her age and appearance, and had contact with her in the palace, tempting her to impersonate for fame and fortune.

"After the matter was revealed, the government and the opposition were furious! They all asked for the punishment of this pretending woman......
