Chapter 33: Buddha is not Buddha

After a while, everyone saw that the monks of the temple came to invite them to participate in the mystery of the Jade Buddha, so they went to the Pilu Pavilion one after another. When he arrived at a courtyard, he put his hands together and turned back to face the crowd. But I saw that the gate of the courtyard was closed, and the four Vajra Hall disciples were lined up to guard the left and right.

The guide Vajra said: "Amitabha, this enlightenment of the Dharma is a matter of brains, and there are a large number of donors, in order to avoid extraneous branches, you have to be wronged to accept a test first. ”

"Oh? What test? Why is it so troublesome...... "When I heard that there was a test, many people shouted and disagreed, and some were even ready to do it.

"Donors, please be impatient, since you are participating in the Dharma, of course, you have to understand the Dharma, this test is not difficult, it is just to do a few Dharma test questions, in order to maintain order and save time, you can only enter one person at a time, so please wait in this pavilion one by one, otherwise, this Jade Buddha may not be seen by anyone."

It is also reasonable for everyone to listen to this arrangement, although they are reluctant, but it is not good to blaspheme the Buddha, so they go to the pavilion in front of the courtyard to wait, and each time they go in one person, they pass the name, and answer the question of Master Huicheng, which is nothing more than the common knowledge of Buddhism such as the two attachments, the three Tibets, the four greats, the five aggregates, the six roots, the "Diamond Sutra", and the six ancestors of Zen Buddhism. But even so, it has already separated the one that has a bit of a good root from the one that elucidates it. Like Dongshan Temple Xuan'en, Duzun Shan Huizhong and other senior monks are ready to capture, but there are also Tie Lian, Wang Yisi and other considerable people have no chance to continue to enter, and Lin San, Tang Sai'er and other White Lotus disciples often study Buddhism, Zeng Jinyi is also in the boudoir to read a wide range of books for fun, naturally it is difficult to fall, Chen Quanzhong, Zou Sansheng, Ming Zongxia and others have come to see a lot of knowledge, and secondly, the family education is strict, and they have a lot of knowledge, but they can also pass the test and enter the courtyard in the Mida Nunnery.

At that time, Wang Yisi hated so much that he actually fought and confronted a group of King Kongs. Hui Cheng hurriedly went to the gate of the courtyard and announced: "Someone deliberately picked quarrels and provoked trouble, and did not follow the rules to participate in the Zen machine, in order to ensure the safety of the Jade Buddha, he has moved to another place." Only then was Chen Quanzhong stopped at the gate of the hospital, so the test was carried out as usual.

Namida Nunnery is actually just a room built on the exit of the cave, everyone entered the nunnery, and followed a guide King Kong into the cave, the cave is also spacious, the lights on the four walls are shining, just a way forward, there is no fork in the road. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he came to an underground hall, which was enough for more than 200 people, and the candlelight on the four walls was lit up at once, and more than 20 disciples under Huicheng and King Kong Hall appeared in front of him.

"All the donors, who can come here, are people who are destined for my Buddha, next, the road we have to walk is not easy, if there are people who do not know kung fu, they have to wait here for tea, and if there is some enlightenment later, the poor monk will send disciples to inform for you to study together."

"Hmph, I think your Guanghua Temple is deliberately playing tricks on people, since you want to enlighten together, why do you want to move it into this deep hole?"

"Friends don't know, this natural jade Buddha is not quite the same as other objects, this is found in the next from an abandoned cave, there was no luster at that time, only a person said that there are many words vaguely seen on the base, but those people are not literate, just dug out the jade Buddha, the cave collapsed at that time, and then look at it, the base is as before, and there is not a word, and then I dedicated the jade Buddha to Guanghua Temple, and Huicheng Master mentioned this matter, but also the master of Buddhism is reluctant to study, tried a variety of methods, Fang found a place in this cave that could reproduce the handwriting of the base, but the situation under the ground was complicated, and the road to the place of offering to the Buddha was not easy to walk, so Master Huicheng had to make such an arrangement. The words of Jin Yuanwai dispelled most of everyone's concerns, so Master Xuan'en, Zeng Jinyi, including Jin Yuanwai and some other people who did not know martial arts stayed, and the rest continued to walk forward.

Jing Yunpeng followed everyone forward, suddenly stopped, looked back at Zeng Jinyi, seemed to have made up his mind, and said to Li Rufeng: "Senior brother, Jinyi stays here alone, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, or I'll stay." ”

Li Rufeng and Fang Lingyan glanced at each other and nodded, and couldn't help but have more respect for Jing Yunpeng.

After walking about a hundred steps, the cave wall gradually narrowed, only felt cold, the four walls were wet rocks, the soles of the feet were also rugged, and went forward for a while, only heard the sound of flowing water, after approaching, by the candle flame, it turned out to be a huge underground dark river crossing, the riverbed was uneven, the drop was as high as more than 20 zhang, the river was more than 50 steps wide, the suspension bridge formed by two ropes crossed the river, swayed under the blowing of the water vapor and the wind in the cave, everyone knew that this was the basis for crossing the river, It is really a dangerous place, and if you don't have the exercises in your body, it will be difficult to get through it safely. After crossing the suspension bridge, I passed through an underground karst cave, some places the stalagmites were inserted upside down, and some places had to step on the suspended stone bridge, and a few people like Zhuge Ningmu who had not cultivated enough almost died. Some people are also starting to wonder that in this place, there are actually underground rivers and karst caves, no wonder the jade Buddha can show words in it, and it can be regarded as a strange place.

After the cave, the space in the cave gradually became open, and the surroundings gradually dried and flattened, and after a while, they came to a stone gate.

Hui Cheng stopped first and said: "The Jade Buddha is in the middle", and then touched, knocked, and twisted on the stone wall next to the door, and with a squeak, the stone door rose upward, and another open hall appeared in front of him.

The hearts of the people put down, walked quickly, entered the hall, the stone door closed again, and a gust of wind blew the lights on the four walls of the hall flickered, printed on the lonely jade Buddha in the middle.

"All the donors, after delaying this precious time, the poor monks will not say more, now everyone can look at the words of the jade Buddha base by themselves. Please follow the poor monks and salute. ”

Under the leadership of Huicheng, everyone gave the Buddha ceremony, recited the vow, and under the control of several disciples of the Vajra Hall, put down the Jade Buddha flat, put it on the wooden frame that had been spliced, and put the lamp on the base of the Jade Buddha, only to see a few lines of words appearing on it, "The Buddha's heart is above, the dust heart is below, and now it has been down, why not go up again." ”

Everyone looked at these sixteen characters and began to think hard.

If there are people in this group of people who don't believe that this jade Buddha is related to the treasure of Tianwan, then Hui Zhong must be one, he has long heard that this jade Buddha is not as Jin Yuanwai said, he found it from an abandoned cave, and he already knows that this is just a careful design of Guanghua Temple, but now if you want to figure out the purpose of this design of Guanghua Temple, you really have to follow their design to figure out this poem, thinking of this, he also thought hard about the true meaning of this sixteen characters.

Hui Zhong's thinking suddenly stopped on the "now it has fallen", which seems to be saying that the current state, as far as this jade Buddha is concerned, has now been put down, everyone is looking at the bottom of it, and everyone is struggling to find the secret of this is really the Buddha's heart? I'm afraid it's more of a dusty heart that pursues worldly fame and fortune! Thinking of this, the meaning of the first three sentences is basically understood, if you really want to continue to pursue worldly fame and fortune, then why not go up? This should be the meaning of the last sentence. What's up? If you can find the treasure through this jade Buddha, then the trick to finding the treasure must be to go up.

Hui Zhong approached the jade Buddha, looked up along the base, everyone looked at him and thought he had found the answer, so they followed him to look up, looked at the head, and did not see any valuable clues, suddenly a flash of inspiration, remembering that the inscriptions on the base are all in a circle, so he quickly returned to the base, pressed with his hand in the circle, and saw that the circle of the base was recessed downward and then popped out, protruding beyond the bottom.

Everyone knows that this was opened by Hui Zhong, and they also admire it for twelve points. Hui Zhong looked back and saw a strange smile flashing on Hui Cheng's face, as if he was secretly happy and mocking. He couldn't help but regret it, so it seems that he has solved this mystery by Huicheng, if this is really his design, then he happened to be used by him at this time. Thinking about these things in his heart, Hui Zhong didn't let go easily, and since he opened it, he first saw what was inside.

Hui Zhong took out the raised part again, but saw that it was a cylindrical tube, and there was a poem around it: "There are seven treasures in the ten directions, and the Maha immeasurable Buddha is good." But if you want to see Jinshi, why do you need to find the meeting between master and apprentice. The prestige is immediately accepted without quality, and this body is like coming. He looked and found nothing, and then pondered the meaning of the words.

Hui Cheng saw that the purpose was basically achieved, and Gao Xuan Buddha said: "Master Huizhong is really a deep study of Buddhism, and sincerity is spiritual", saying that this came over and reached out to pass the cylindrical tube. Hui Zhong couldn't solve this for a while, and in front of everyone, in the name of enlightening Buddhism, he couldn't refuse, so he could only give it to him.

Hui Cheng knocked, it seemed to be empty, and the material was not jade, it seemed to be copper, it turned out that this cylindrical tube was part of the beeswax-colored lacquer on the picture. He looked at the other end of the cylindrical tube again, and there was only a retractor hook on it, which was evident to open the lid. Huicheng did not hesitate to open the lid and took out a piece of brown paper from it, but on the paper was a painting, and the famous monks of the monasteries present could see that this was a "Diamond Sutra Diagram", and the content of the painting was the scene of the Buddha preaching the Dharma to Subodhi in the country of Shewei. However, this warp diagram does not look very well painted, and there are a few lines and knots in it that are too obvious to seem like a famous painting.

"Donors, according to the poor monk's opinion, this sutra diagram may have another mystery, and it must be consulted together with this barrel-body Buddha or can be understood, I don't know what you think?"

After Huicheng took the painting tube, Huizhong thought about it carefully, and found that this Buddha was not clever at the time, and it can even be said to be shallow, which is seven treasures, gold and stone, and prestige, and its orientation to treasure hunting is very obvious, and it does not conform to the realm of Buddhism without desire at all, either it is made by Huicheng himself, or there is such a song in the treasure of Tianwan that cannot be climbed to the elegant hall, but if he Guanghua Temple really stole the "Golden Stone Sutra" from Duzun Mountain, what did he spend this week doing? Could it be that there are other objects that open the treasure of the end of the heavens? Why did Xu Ying, who is the eldest grandson of Xu Shouhui, never mention this song in Duzun Mountain for so many years? Many questions plagued Hye-sung, and he couldn't think about what this was meant for a while.

The crowd began to rack their brains again. Here, Chen Quanzhong seemed to have an understanding, and walked towards Zou Zhe and said, "Second uncle, what do you know?" ”

Zou Zhiguo shook his head, he was conceited and erudite, and he wholeheartedly followed the meaning of Buddhism to seek any truth, and like those great monks who came together, he had no experience. On the contrary, those who have no good roots and have unbridled thinking have seen some fame.

"The Ten Directions refer to the Ten Directions Pure Land, right? There are seven treasures, and it is said that there are seven kinds of treasures? Li Rufeng asked Fang Lingyan, he also knew a little about Buddhism, he knew the Pure Land of the Ten Directions but did not know the Seven Treasures.

Without waiting for Fang Lingyan to answer, Feng Yanlang replied: "The Seven Treasures, also known as the Seven Treasures, have different references in different Buddhist scriptures. ”

Fang Lingyan knew this, and seeing that Feng Yanlang was so familiar with Buddhist scriptures, she couldn't help but take a closer look. Li Rufeng knew that he was ugly, but fortunately he continued to break the jar and break it a little sourly, so what this side said must be that when the Pure Land of the Ten Directions is gone, there will be seven kinds of treasures, heh, the Buddha has given so many karmas, it's really good, if you can get ...... "Golden Stone...... Sutra ...... At a glance, our master and apprentice met, where to look everywhere, so we can immediately enjoy the majesty and go to see the Buddha. As he spoke, his voice became higher and higher, and after he finished speaking, he glanced at Feng Yanlang proudly, and then winked at Fang Lingyan.

Chen Quanzhong couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Li Rufeng seem to have mentioned the "Golden Stone Sutra" intentionally or unintentionally, what is this guy crazy about, knowing that these people are all coveting the treasure of Tianwan, is this going to set himself on fire?
