Chapter 197: Entering the Buddha Country
The itinerary was boring and boring, such a long distance, not to mention Lin Yan and their disciples, even masters above the innate realm could not reach it on foot.
In addition, one of them enters the northern desert, the long yellow sand gradually becomes charming, and the environment is really bad, even if it is a horse that can travel thousands of miles a day in other places, it is difficult to move an inch here.
Therefore, people have a new means of transportation, which is the sand camel. The animal's neck is long, broad, slightly curved, its head resembles that of a sheep, its ears are short and round, and its upper lip is split like that of a rabbit.
It carries two humps on its back, its limbs are slender, its hooves are as large as plates, and its toes and planters have thick skin, all of which are suitable for walking on sand.
In addition, it is also particularly thirsty and can go without drinking water for a long time without affecting normal activities, which undoubtedly makes people living in the northern desert love it to the extreme.
However, this time, the academy group did not ride a sand camel, although this animal is suitable for walking in the desert, but the speed is a little slow.
If you really ride it, it is estimated that the martial arts competition will be over long ago. Because the Northern Desert is the territory of Buddhism, they naturally also take into account the inconvenience of transportation.
In order to facilitate the disciples of various sects who came here to participate in the martial arts, the Buddhist sect specially set up several receiving stations in the border areas of the Northern Desert to meet them, and then transported these people to the territory in batches.
These Buddhas use a method called The means of transportation of the "sand boat" is commonly called
"Ship of the Desert". From the outside, it looks like a boat in the water, but the magic is that it can be taken in the desert
"Sailing" is really amazing. Moreover, this is a unique means of transportation in the Northern Desert, and the principle of operation and how to manufacture it are secrets.
However, because it is too limited, not many people deliberately snoop on it. Horses can travel in the desert, but in the real desert, they can only rely on it.
I have to say that Buddhism is still very thoughtful! The cookie-wreck scenery along the way is still boring, and occasionally you can see some small settlements, and the houses are all built haphazardly out of stone, which is very simple.
Those people are also dark-skinned and skinny, and those who don't know still think they have fled from the famine!
This miserable appearance is probably worse than that of a beggar! The group of the academy was also embarrassed by this scene, and Lin Yan and the others frowned.
The young man has not yet been polished and lost his sharpness, and he is naturally a little unbearable and even angry when he sees this. The Northern Desert Buddha Kingdom is famous, is it possible that the people under its rule are so miserable?
Compared with the clean robes and ruddy faces of the messengers, these people looked even more miserable.
Yuan Hao's temperament was originally straightforward, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't bear it anymore, and pointed to one of the messengers and said:
"I see that you are well dressed and well fed, but why do these people have no clothes and no food? Is this the way your Buddha kingdom is governed? The messenger glanced at Yuan Hao lightly, then turned his head away, without the slightest intention of answering his question.
This can make Yuan Hao angry, and he has to roll up his arms and sleeves to go up with this guy right now
"Theoretical theory", fortunately it was stopped by Lin Yan. This is in other people's territory, if you really start a conflict, I don't know what the impact will be!
At the critical moment, it was Xie Yuan who spoke out to stop him, not only because the former was strong, but most importantly, Xie Yuan brought them back in the battle between the Abyss and Xuantian Sect, so Yuan Hao thought of his kindness and was unwilling to fight against him.
But this doesn't mean that he will give up asking about this matter, not to mention his character, and the academy has not taught them the reason to retreat in case of trouble.
This time, the group of the academy was headed by Xie Yuan, in addition to Xing Jie and Ma Chuan, two teachers and students.
is so cautious, and the root cause is still worried about what will happen to these students. After all, the previous abyss is a lesson from the past, and the other party even dares to teach in the academy, so what else is not to dare?
As for the nonsense that Xuantian Sect said, Meng Yifan didn't even believe a single punctuation mark. But now that the strength of the academy is not as good as others, some places still have to pinch their noses and admit that they are unreasonable.
Since it is impossible to eliminate external dangers, we can only start from ourselves and prevent them from happening. After all, these students are here to practice, not to die.
If these shameless old martial arts oilmen make a move and harm them at will, then the academy will lose a lot!
Xie Yuan naturally understood this Yuan Hao's temperament, so he arched his hand to the messenger and said:
"Little Master, my student is a little impatient, if there is a collision before, please ask for ten thousand Haihan!" The messenger didn't care about Yuan Hao, but who was Xie Yuan?
That is the leader of the group of the college, and the representative is the college. Even if this identity is aside, the strength of his innate realm is enough to deter most people.
Like the masters of this realm, there are not many of them in the Buddhist sect, and only the level of Venerable and above can compete with one of them.
The messenger hurriedly folded his hands and said:
"The donor's words are serious, and the little monk is ashamed!" Xie Yuan said with a smile:
"It's my student's fault first, so little master doesn't have to mind. It's just ......," he continued, as soon as his words shifted:
"I'm also very curious about this, I wonder if the little master can solve my confusion for us?" Everyone has said that this is the part, and if the messenger does not agree, he will not know how to lift!
The envoy hesitated slightly, and then said to Xie Yuan:
"If the donor doesn't dislike it, the little monk is willing to tell it!" These things are not a secret, these people only need to stay for a few more days to understand, and explaining it to them by themselves can be regarded as a sale of personal favors and a steady profit.
Thinking about this clearly, the messenger said slowly:
"These people are not exactly the people of my Buddha country, they are all sinners!"
"Sinners?" Lin Yan asked suspiciously. The people are the people, so how can we say that we are guilty? Could it be that these people are robbers who kill people and set fires?
But these people are old and young, men and women, and their bodies still look so weak and weak, are there such miserable criminals?
The messenger continued:
"Exactly! Their ancestors were all people who had committed heinous sins, and these sins were irreparable in the world and will last for generations to come, and the descendants of these people were naturally sinners! Yuan Hao sneered when he heard this:
"This will also harm the descendants, and your Buddhism is inevitably too domineering!" The envoy seemed to dislike Yuan Hao, but for Xie Yuan's sake, he still didn't conflict with him after all, but replied lightly:
"The donor's words are wrong! Since Youze was brought to life by the next generation, why didn't it harm the descendants? It's just cause and effect! ”
"Besides, if you commit a crime in the world, you will have to sit together or even punish the nine tribes at every turn, and my Buddha just allows these sinners to realize the red dust here, and does not harm their lives, isn't it merciful enough?" Yuan Hao said angrily:
"Nonsense!" The lead made disdainful and said:
"How can mortals know the true meaning of my Buddha?" Seeing that Yuan Hao was about to break out again, Lin Yan hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and persuaded:
"Tell me what you're fighting with him, if he really has the ability, he can still be a guide here?" Then he hooked Yuan Hao's shoulder and said:
"Let's just say, isn't this just the same as the shopkeeper in the restaurant, ushering in the send-off, what are you doing with him? Could it be that you still think that there is a light on his face after arguing? Lin Yan didn't deliberately lower his voice when he spoke, and the strength of the people present was not low, so he could naturally hear it clearly.
And the messenger who was the subject of the topic naturally heard it word for word, but he was rather he couldn't hear these words at the moment.
It's so infuriating! Since I entered the Buddhist sect, I have been cultivating myself, especially in recent times, I feel that my cultivation has made a lot of progress.
In time, it may not be comparable to those great monks. Who would have thought that today he would be angry with a thief!
He doesn't pay attention to that Yuan Hao, his temper is impulsive and irritable, he is a reckless man, and it is not a matter of holding a handle to regulate him.
It's just that Lin Yan is really a little difficult and very annoying! There are basically academy disciples around here, and everyone may disagree in private, but they will not speak to outsiders on this occasion.
If someone really does that, if nothing else, it depends on whether the three teachers will invite him alone
"Drink tea" and that's it! It's okay to fight on weekdays, and it's stupid to blatantly stumble at this time.
No, whether it was Bai Shan, who had fought with Lin Yan many times before, or Qin Chen, who had just married Liangzi, they all stood aside, looking at their noses and noses, and there was no superfluous reaction.
And the messenger was already about to explode, and the heart said:
"You're the shopkeeper! Your whole family is a shopkeeper! Why is this still starting to slander people? ”
"Although I am not a great monk, but you are not a Confucian sage, who do you look down on?" Just as the envoy was secretly slandering, Lin Yan then said to Yuan Hao:
"We are also disciples of the academy, we have to rely on our identity, we can't just come to any cat or dog to reason with them, the gap is here, they don't understand, the price drops!" The envoy almost spurted out a mouthful of blood after hearing this, which was so annoying!
How did this kid's mouth grow, and he soaked it in five poisons? Otherwise, why is it so poisonous! Listening to Lin Yan's words, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the more he took a step back, the more he lost, he really wanted to throw a stick at him, maybe it would be calm!
But if you think so, the envoy didn't dare to do that. Joke! This boat is full of people's people, if you start to do it, you won't be beaten up by a solid one!
Although you can retaliate afterwards, you still have to take the beating! And to be honest, with Xie Yuan here, the Buddha Sect probably won't stand up for one of his little disciples.
But just endure it like this, sooner or later you have to hold yourself out of internal injuries, and the lead can only comfort yourself in your heart:
"Don't be angry! Don't be angry! I am a monk, I am not arrogant or impatient, I am calm, and I can't be angry! Then his ears moved, and he heard Lin Yan saying again:
"Look, he stopped talking, I guess he figured it out by himself, and he felt that it was a loss, so let's stop stimulating him!" The messenger was now in tears, and his heart said:
"I owe it to your sister! I don't want to deal with you at all, okay? It's all like this, you're still small-mouthed, what's it, how can you say that? The key is that Yuan Hao nodded thoughtfully and said:
"Well, that's true!" Mingya on the side listened to the two guys singing and harmonizing, and the envoy was angry,
"Flutter" laughed, and then hurriedly covered his mouth, afraid of ruining his image, after all, there are so many people around who don't know him!
But after holding it for a while, I still couldn't hold back after all, and said in my heart:
"Xiao Yanzi is really bad, didn't you look at that guide that made his face turn green? At this moment, he estimated that he had eaten both of them alive! The envoy was about to smoke at this moment, Xie Yuan also smiled helplessly, stepped forward and said to the envoy:
"Little Master, my two students are more naughty, please bear with me!" The introduction made Wen Yan's face twitch, and he stiffly squeezed out a few words from between his teeth:
"I didn't ...... Affair! I don't mind. But looking at his expression, I guess no one thinks that he really doesn't care, he is just holding on!
Don't look at him on the surface is quite calm, but in fact, his heart has already been turbulent. God is so naughty, is this naughty?
This is a black belly, a poisonous tongue and no awe, and it is still so free to jump out in the Buddha country, it is really fearless for the ignorant!
At the moment, all he wanted was to end the journey and pray never to see them again, because he was afraid that he would be angry to death.
I wonder if the Buddha heard his prayer, and after driving some distance, he came to an oasis with a majestic city towering above it!
"It's finally here!" The envoy looked at the city in front of him, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief in his heart.
This journey is really too torturous, but fortunately, the journey has an end, which can let him get rid of these two people. Lin Yan and Yuan Hao also said pretendedly:
"Oh, it's here so soon, I'm really reluctant to you!" Again the lead makes the heart attack:
"I can't bear your sister! You guys think it's gone, I don't know who to be angry with, do you? Why, you have to me off to death? ”
"Hehe, I'm not playing with you guys anymore! Goodbye, oh no, never again! As soon as he arrived at the place, the envoy turned around and left, the speed made Lin Yan and the others dumbfounded, it seemed that he didn't want to stay longer for a moment!
As soon as he left, Lin Yan and Yuan Hao glanced at each other, and then laughed loudly without any scruples, so that Mingya couldn't help but glance at them.
Xie Yuan was also a little helpless, cleared his throat, and said:
"Alright, let's go to town!" The introduction of this Buddha sect is one by one, and when you get here, there will naturally be other connections to continue, and these people who are not familiar with the place will not be lost.
But compared to the previous envoy, this one is a bit dull now, and he won't say a word other than the necessary exchanges, so that those who don't know think he's a mute.
Could it be that he is afraid that we will scold him? Lin Yan and Yuan Hao glanced at each other, and this idea involuntarily appeared in their minds!
Don't be so vigilant, we're not looking for faults, we've always been kind to others! However, Lin Yan thought about this point a lot, there are many sects of Buddhism, and various cultivation methods are as numerous as the sands of the Ganges.
Some are good at debating, while others are not good at words
"Shut up and meditate". The unkind words that I happened to encounter may be this kind of method of cultivation. Rumors wait until they really keep their mouths shut, and when they speak again, they can show their ultimate power!
After the envoy took the academy and his party into the city to settle down, he left in a hurry, presumably because there were other teams to pick up.
These teams participating in the martial arts competition have been arranged to stay in a special Buddhist house, which saves them time to search, and even the fasting meal is ready, which is also very thoughtful!
After the group had eaten fasting, they went to rest, after all, they should be tired after such a long journey.
Lin Yan was lying on the bed, thinking about the things of the day, and he also had many doubts in his heart, and at the same time, he also had great doubts about the teachings of Buddhism.
If all living beings in the Buddha kingdom were suffering, it would be fine, but the fact is that those who are called
The people of the "sinners" are miserable and struggle to survive in scattered settlements. And in this oasis, there is such a large city.
Judging from the rough understanding when entering the city, this city is quite prosperous, and it is not at all obvious that it is in the boundless desert.
The Buddha said,
"All beings are equal!" But when they see these people in the same space but with completely different destinies, do they know that they are equal?
No, they were never equal, never! Along the way, there are countless temples in the city, which of the Buddha Venerable enshrined is not splendid?
These clay tires were molded into gold and worshipped by believers, but who ever cared about the lives of those who were flesh and blood?
Their joys, sorrows, sorrows, and joys are nothing more important in the eyes of Buddhism!
Some people say:
"They're sinners!" Yes, their ancestors may indeed be guilty, but after many generations, those sins should also fade!
The worldly people still know
"People die and debts are eliminated", but the Buddha never let go. These sinners and the people in the prosperous cities are under the rule of the Buddha, but they seem to belong to a completely different world.
It has been said:
"The joys and sorrows of the world are not the same!" Yes, if one side is in heaven and the other is in a sea of suffering, how can joys and sorrows be connected, and how can they be the same?
Perhaps, this is just his opinion; Perhaps, he stood too low and not enough level; Perhaps, it was because he did not have great wisdom and only saw the disturbances of the world...... However, he is only a mortal, and what he sees is only mortal!
The Buddha once said:
"Put it down!" While asking the world to let go, did the Buddha let go? Lin Yan didn't know, but at least the Buddha sect in the world, this great Buddha country, did not let go......
