Chapter 257: Literary and Artistic Youth
The meaning of the lantern monk is that it depends on the judgment of the demon fox.
This answer obviously made Master Nan Neng very dissatisfied, "The heart is not a Buddha, and wisdom is not the Tao." Raised ten, did not dare to protect each other. Carry a cane and don't turn your head. ”
The lantern monk bowed his head to be taught, but he still gritted his teeth and insisted.
The master asked him to hang up his cane, which was to tell him that the help of his fellow disciples is always indispensable on the road of cultivation, and that he cannot go far alone. And in the process of walking, you can't look left and right, this mountain is higher than that mountain, you must be firm in your beliefs, don't be easily swayed by others.
He understands the truth, but the growth process of the lantern monk is not the same as that of ordinary monks, similar to the warbler, he was hanged out in the Xinye Buddhist Gate; The difference is only that Hou Ying is really hated by gods and ghosts except for a few people in the Quanzhen Sect, and the situation of carrying the lantern is deliberately done by his teacher.
The big forces have their own set of special methods for cultivating disciples, and teaching them according to their aptitude is the core principle, and disciples like Lantern can't teach according to the traditional method, so they were thrown here, just to let him come into contact with the heterogeneity of the Quanzhen Sect, and in the future, he can also leave a room for maneuver for the Xinye Buddhism.
Of course, the current lantern monk can't think of this layer, he just does it according to his own intuition, he doesn't want to be ordinary and doesn't want to be mediocre like the Zhisun Taoist for a lifetime, so he subconsciously chose the same attitude as the Quanzhen fanatics, and his heart felt that this would be more conducive to his own cultivation.
I'd rather bear the Buddhists, not the Buddhists, as for whether it will really affect the unity within the Buddhists, it's his business;
He saw it very clearly, to say that Master Nan Neng would really sit on the stage for a demon fox who committed a crime, it would never be possible; If you can cultivate to such a realm, you have your own decision on the way to make trade-offs, and you can't even give up your own relatives in the process of mother-in-law and mother-in-law's cultivation, let alone a monster?
The reason for refusal is nothing more than a matter of face; Why did the whole Bears Ears take him here? The overlooking psychology caused by the difference in the realm makes him why he should listen to the noise of a junior? Will the aftermath of public opinion have an impact on his popularity?
Wait a minute.
He didn't believe in face, so he insisted on arraigning the demon fox, based on the facts and the law.
This is his mental journey, from the initial refusal to cooperate, to the later disputes, and then to the supervision, to the current collusion, complicity; Hou Ying had already dug a pit for him, just waiting for him to get in step by step, relying on nothing else, or his understanding of this dishonest monk, this is a restless monk, an unscrupulous monk.
What is a friend of Shinno Buddhism? It really hindered his practice, and even the Buddha could sell it!
Master Nan Neng found that the two juniors were wearing a pair of pants, which made him very disappointed, and he was more and more sure that he couldn't be strong; Yuntai is indeed a place where you don't care about the three things, but that's because you haven't violated the interests of the big forces, and if you really provoke the big forces, this place will immediately become a place under the control of the three capitals.
Seeing that the master has been shaken, Hou Ying knows that now is the time to strike while the iron is hot,
"Master, it's a matter of time. Since the Bears Ears tripartite joint decision to investigate the old case, there will definitely be this in Pujia Temple, not for you, the master, but a few unsolved cases have become the legend of Bears Ears, which is imperceptibly changing the relationship between practitioners and ordinary mortals, it is a cancer, and it will be pulled out! ”
The lantern monk on the side really frowned when he heard this, when did the three parties jointly agree? It's clear that you're making your own decisions, okay? But now he can't cut it in person, because he's already in line.
This guy is a good hand at digging pits, and his pit companions are even more proficient, and they are easy to come.
"The first complaint is about the legend of the demon fox, this is the will of heaven, but also the will of the Buddha, we and other cultivators, when the heavens obey the order, how dare you act against the sky?"
Hou Ying took a deep look, "I don't know the master, there is no injustice or hatred, and the realm is even more different.
Master, can you think about what you will get if you insist? In addition to the illusory face, it is destined to achieve nothing, and this matter cannot be ended so easily, and the further it goes, the more difficult it is to get out.
If you cooperate, what is lost? You'll get a few juniors who come with you, and you'll have a reputation for being magnanimous; And as the investigation continues, the demon fox incident is just one of the many anomalies in Bears Ears, and there are always new stories to attract the public's attention. ”
Knowing that it's time to take a step back, you have to give someone a step down, right?
"As I said before, it is just a joke to frame the demon fox and beat it into a trick, acting in Bear's Ears, those public bad habits disciples will never dare to commit it; I waited for what I wanted, but what I asked for was a fair opportunity to confront him, and I hope that the master will fulfill it. ”
The lantern monk saw that the time was ripe, and he had come to this point, so he could only hold on.
"Amitabha, we are willing to confront the demon fox in front of the master, never use any coercive means, and ask the master to fulfill it."
Master Nanneng smiled slightly, these two guys sang and harmonized, the purpose was nothing more than that, he had expected it; He has never meant to protect the demon fox, but he must show his attitude, this is a matter of order, how can it be up to the minds of the two juniors?
Moreover, the character traits of two young people can be observed in the confrontation, one is full of sharpness and sleekness; A person who hides a needle in a cotton and adheres to principles is the best among the disciples of this generation.
"So, I'll call it, and if you have any questions, just ask them face to face."
Pick up the wooden fish in your hand, gently tap three times, there is movement under the chaotic post somewhere outside the temple, there is a blue fire, swaying.
Outside the wall, the old fox blows the blue fire, and the ancient Buddha in front of the hall sits on the green lamp...... This person is a fox, and the relationship is not shallow.
After a while, a dignified young man walked in, like a teacher in the human world, full of literary atmosphere, and the trace of demonic energy was very perfect.
When I saw the two of them, I didn't panic and didn't panic, and sang, "I don't know why the master came to greet each other late at night?" ”
Demon foxes, born with the ability to change human form, do not need to go through many troubles such as metamorphosis and horizontal bones, in this point they are far superior to other monsters, especially suitable for the human world; Judging from the warbler, this demon does not seem to have become a demon pill, and it can still be dealt with.
Master Nanneng said warmly: "The two envoys have something to ask you, but they can be straightforward, but it is not good to lie and deceive; If you don't do it, no one will force you, you know? ”
The demon fox nodded and turned to the two, "Hu Wen has seen the two senior brothers, I don't know if the two of them are here, what do you have to say?" ”
Hou Ying smiled slightly. "I waited here because I actually wanted to discuss poetry with Brother Hu."
