Xilan!

The most northwestern state in the world.

The three major prefectures of Buddhism are Xilan Prefecture in the northwest and Xisha Prefecture in the southwest, as well as Huzhou in the middle of these two states.

Entering the boundary of Xilanzhou, it is no longer a majestic green mountain, but a series of snow-capped mountains.

From a distance, it was white.

Xilan Prefecture is famous for its snow-capped mountains.

Daisetsuzan Mountain.

It's a very common name for a snow-capped mountain, but as the name suggests, it's the largest snow-capped mountain in the entire state of Xilan.

The main peak of Daisetsuzan is several kilometers high, and the front and back of the mountain are also thousands of meters wide, and the surrounding peaks with Daisetsuzan as the main peak surround it.

The same is true for Buddhist temples.

Many temples are built on top of other mountain peaks, and the Leiyin Temple of the Great Snow Mountains is guarded.

These days, Leiyin Temple is very lively, even with the surrounding temples.

The birthday celebration of the Buddha is held once every ten years.

This is the greatest prosperity of the entire Buddhist sect, and not only monks from the other two states in the west will come to participate, but monks from other states will come as long as time and conditions permit.

If there is no time and conditions, then time and conditions must be created.

In fact, ordinary monks are not qualified to go to Leiyin Temple except for the day of the celebration, but choose other temples around to stay overnight, or directly in the homes of local people.

Most of the people in Xilan are believers, and some monks are very enthusiastic about staying in them, and even many people will deliberately vacate the best rooms in their homes during this time and keep them for monks who come from afar.

"I have to admit that Buddhism is much better than Taoism in this area."

On the official road, Lin Ye watched the people around him salute in a certain direction with a reverent face, and even many people knelt down step by step on the road.

It is almost difficult for believers in Taoism to do this.

"Uncle Shi, Daomen doesn't value these."

Xuan Hui, who came with Lin Ye, smiled, Buddhism cares a lot about incense believers, Daomen cares a little about incense, but he really doesn't care much about believers.

In the view of Buddhism, with a stable number of believers, there is a steady stream of incense.

The Taoist Gate is just the opposite, as long as you give incense, it doesn't matter if you are a believer or not.

Daomen, more like a transaction.

No matter what your identity background is, as long as you are willing to donate incense money, I can give you peace charms or other equivalent things, and if you can't do it, you can also give you a fortune and approve it.

As for leaving the Taoist temple, you turn around and run to the temple, and the Taoist gate will not care.

Buddhism is different, from the very beginning you will be asked to be pious, to be pious to the Buddha, to be pious to the Buddha.

Because the Buddha and the Bodhisattva are to save the suffering, there are so many suffering people in this world, if you are not pious, how can the Buddha and the Bodhisattva find you?

"The Taoist sect is reluctant to be involved in cause and effect, and is more about cultivating one's own body, and many of our Buddhist powers rely on the power of believers' faith."

The more believers, the stronger the Dharma.

"Uncle Shi, I once heard someone say that it was about Taoism and Buddhism, and I think there is some truth."

"Tell me about it?"

"People who often go to the Taoist temple are generally more intelligent, their brains turn fast, and there are many high-ranking officials and nobles, this kind of people actually only believe in themselves, go to the Taoist temple to donate incense money, in fact, it is more to buy a guarantee for themselves, if you encounter strange events in the future, you can ask the Taoist chief to help."

"And most of the people who often go to Buddhism are poor people, because Buddhism talks about the next life, and only those who live a more difficult life at the bottom expect to be reborn in a rich family in the next life."

Xuan Hui's words made Lin Ye groan for a moment, but when he thought about it carefully, it was really like this.

Take Qingfeng Temple as an example, when he was lonely, Lao Dao didn't seem to go to find some believers, and most of the time he relied on going out to solve ghosts and monsters in exchange for some money to maintain the operation of the Taoist Temple.

To put it bluntly, Taoism pays attention to freewheeling, and cultivates a self.

Of course, this does not mean that the disciples of the Daomen do not care about anything, on the contrary, it is precisely because they only cultivate themselves, they seek to reach each one, and when they encounter ghosts or injustices, the disciples of the Daomen will not stand idly by.

All the way to the foot of the Daisetsuzan Mountains.

"Uncle Shi, do you want to inform the Leiyin Temple?"

Lin Ye and Xuan Hui were both invited by Leiyin Temple, and they could go directly to the Great Snow Mountain, and the Great Snow Mountain had to be greeted by the monks in person.

"Is there any news of your Uncle Daohai?"

This time I will come to participate in this Buddha's birthday celebration, and Lin Ye's main purpose is to find Daohai.

Daohai is a devout Buddhist disciple, and generally speaking, he will not miss this kind of Buddhist event.

"Uncle Shi, let's look for it like this, I'm afraid it's hard to find, it's better for Uncle Shi to inform Leiyin Temple, I want to come to Leiyin Temple and won't hide this news, Uncle Daohai knows that Uncle Shi is coming, and he will definitely come to us."

Logically speaking, what Xuan Hui said was correct, compared to Lin Ye going to the haystack to find a needle to find Dao Hai, it was better to take the initiative to show his figure and let Dao Hai come to find him.

"Well, you inform the Lei Yin Temple."

Lin Ye nodded, Xuan Hui got permission, and immediately arranged for the two monks to quickly go to Leiyin Temple to report the news.

"Uncle Shi, this time Lei Yin Temple will arrange at least a few elders to greet you, Uncle Shi."

In Xuan Hui's opinion, his uncle is now the holy son of Buddhism, even if this identity has not been recognized by all Buddhists, but Leiyin Temple will definitely not dare to wait for him.

Not to mention that the uncle is still a martial saint and a powerhouse in the Yuan Shen Realm, in these two identities, he came to Leiyin Temple, and Leiyin Temple was also greeted with the courtesy of distinguished guests.

However, half an hour later.

The two monks of Miaoying Temple went and returned, even if they were Buddhist disciples, there was anger on their faces that could not be concealed at this moment.

"Uncle Taishi, abbot, there is too much deception over there in Leiyin Temple."

The younger monk couldn't help but speak first, in fact, the monks of Myoo Temple were not very old, and the oldest was only forty years old.

Listening to what the two monks said, Lin Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, and Xuan Hui was also furious.

"What do you mean by Leiyin Temple, they invited Uncle Shi to come!"

The two monks of Miaoying Temple, who had just gone up to the Great Snow Mountain, informed the monks in charge of welcoming the guests in the welcoming hall of Leiyin Temple, but the other party was too many people to shirk, and the temple could not entertain them.

At first, the two really believed it, but before they could go far, another monk came over and informed the abbot of Hailong Temple that he was coming, and these monks who were in charge of receiving them immediately organized other monks to go down the mountain to greet them.

Hailong Temple.

The two had also heard that it was a large temple with a golden body Elder sitting in charge.

But the abbot of Hailong Temple is not even in the golden body realm, so they all went out to greet him, his own master uncle is the holy son of Buddhism, and he is also a martial saint and a strong person in the Yuan Shen realm, but he let his own master and uncle come up by himself, isn't this too much deception?

"Uncle Shi, I'm just afraid that Leiyin Temple will be tired."

Xuan Hui also calmed down after being angry, and the receiving monks of Leiyin Temple categorically did not dare to do this, which means that this was an order given by the abbot and elders of Leiyin Temple.

From this point of view, there must be something greasy in this.

Lin Ye was not provoked, and what Xuan Hui could think of, he could naturally also think that there must be a reason why Lei Yin Temple did this.

Don't you recognize yourself as a Son?

"Since people don't welcome it, then let's not post it."

As soon as Lin Ye's words came out, Xuan Hui was a little surprised, and asked in surprise, "Uncle Shi, are you saying that we should go back?" ”

"Go back?" Lin Ye smiled and shook his head, he had already come, how could he go back.

"The temple closest to the Great Snow Mountain, and there is some contradiction with the Great Snow Mountain, do you know which one it is?"

Even if the three western states are all respected by Buddhism, even if Leiyin Temple is the first temple in Xilanzhou, Lin Ye believes that there must be temples in Xilan that are not satisfied with Leiyin Temple.

There are so many people in the whole Xilan, and Buddhism needs believers, so there will definitely be some conflicts of interest.

"Is there a contradiction with the Leiyin Temple?" Xuan Hui fell into memory, he did collect information about many temples in Xilan before he came, and after thinking about it for a while, he said: "There really is a temple, and it is only a hundred miles away from Daxue Mountain. ”

……

……

Xiyue Temple.

The temple in Xilan, which is second only to Leiyin Temple.

Of course, the gap between this is a bit large.

In Xiyue Temple, there is only one strong person in the Golden Body Realm, but there are six in Leiyin Temple, and there are tens of thousands of monks in Leiyin Temple, while there are less than 1,000 monks in Xiyue Temple.

But to be so close to Leiyin Temple, Xiyue Temple can have such strength, it is already very good.

The so-called side of the couch does not allow others to snore, Leiyin Temple must understand this truth, but it can tolerate the development of Xiyue Temple on the side, the reason is that there was a Buddhist saint son in the history of Xiyue Temple.

Based on this, Leiyin Temple just can't deal with Xiyue Temple clearly.

And at this moment, the bell rings in Xiyue Temple.

Sixteen bells rang throughout the temple and throughout the mountains and forests.

When the monks of Xiyue Temple heard the bell, they were stunned at first, and then immediately ran towards the door.

Sixteen bells, this is the temple to welcome the most distinguished guests of the etiquette, all the monks who hear the bell, must rush to Xiyue Temple as soon as possible.

In addition to the monks of Xiyue Temple, those monks from other places who came to attend the birthday of the Buddha and stayed in Xiyue Temple also followed the monks of Xiyue Temple to the entrance of the temple.

They were also curious about who was here to make Xiyue Temple greet such a big battle.

Thousands of monks flocked to the door from all over the temple at this moment, but before these monks could reach the temple entrance, they saw a Buddha light in front of them through the courtyard wall.

Feeling the bright Buddha light outside the door, many monks felt a pang in their hearts, could it be that there is a golden body realm monk coming?

"Amitabha, the abbot of the old Xiyue Temple, Huiren, with all the monks, welcomes the Holy Son to our temple!"

The magnificent Buddha name and voice spread throughout the temple in an instant.

The monks who had not yet arrived at the temple gate were all stunned.

Son?

Where did the Son come from?

……

……

The entrance of the temple of Xiyue Temple.

Many monks looked solemnly and with respectful eyes looking at the young man in front of them.

Although the man has not been shaved, there is a Buddha halo behind him, surrounded by many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and the Sanskrit sound is clear.

It's like the Buddha has descended.

The holy son of Buddhism is in the forest night!

During this time, the monks of Xiyue Temple also heard about the news of the arrival of the Holy Son, but most of the monks in the three western states took this matter seriously.

How could the Holy Son of Buddhism be a Martial Saint and a powerhouse in the Yuan Shen Realm, isn't this a big joke.

If the Holy Son is a powerhouse in the Golden Body Realm, and then cultivates the martial arts, they can still understand it, but this is the opposite, and they can't accept it.

In the eyes of many monks, this is what the Miaoying Temple came out to expand its influence, but in the three western states, there are no monks to deal with this matter.

However, at this moment, seeing the Buddha's light on this body and seeing these visions, these monks suddenly wavered a little.

If it weren't for the Son, could there be such a vision?

Isn't it the Holy Son, will the abbot Huiren of Xiyue Temple lead the monks of the whole temple to come to greet him?

You must know that Xiyue Temple has produced a holy son.

"Maybe this is really the Holy Son of Buddhism, Xiyue Temple has produced the Holy Son, and he must know more about the Holy Son than we do."

Those monks who stayed overnight in Xiyue Temple, or took this opportunity to visit Xiyue Temple, were cautious at this moment.

The battle of Xiyue Temple is so big, if something goes wrong, the reputation of hundreds of years will be ruined.

Dare to do this, Xiyue Temple must have an exact certainty, and this is the holy son of Buddhism.

"Yesterday, the old man recited the scriptures in the main hall, the statue of the Buddha had a vision, the old monk was puzzled, and then inquired about the classics left by the monks in the temple, only to know that when the holy son of my temple first entered the temple, the statue of the Buddha also had such a vision."

Huiren looked at Lin Ye, and as soon as he said this, the scene fell silent instantly.

Lin Ye came to Xiyue Temple, and the statue of the Buddha had a vision, and it was the same as the first time the holy son of Xiyue Temple went to Xiyue Temple.

These words are equivalent to confirming Lin Ye's identity as the Holy Son.

Whoever doesn't believe in Lin Ye's identity as the Holy Son is questioning Xiyue Temple.

"I've seen the Son."

Whether it was the monks of Xiyue Temple or other temples, they all bowed to Lin Ye at this moment.

There was Xiyue Temple endorsing Lin Ye, and no one present questioned Lin Ye's identity as a holy son, because they believed in Xiyue Temple.

"Abbot Huiren is polite, the abbot is my Buddhist monk, it should be a kid to salute the abbot."

"I can't do it." Huiren's face changed, and he immediately said: "The Holy Son has never been in Buddhism for a long time in the past, and the Holy Son is the most noble identity of my Buddhism, not to mention the old monk, even the old man is here at the moment, and he has to bow to the Holy Son, and this ceremony cannot be abolished." ”

"Amitabha, then listen to the abbot."

Abbot Huiren welcomed Lin Ye into the temple, and Xuan Hui, who was following Lin Ye, lowered his eyes, but there was a brilliance between those eyes.

He didn't expect Xiyue Temple to be so cooperative.

Or to be precise, Xiyue Temple actually has such a big grudge against Leiyin Temple.

As early as three hours ago, I sent a letter to Abbot Huiren of Xiyue Temple on behalf of my uncle.

Although he hadn't read the contents of the letter, he could probably guess it.

Lin Ye stepped into the temple, and the corners of his mouth were also smiling.

Lao Shi is right, the one who hates the boss the most in this world is the second child.
