Chapter 60: Disciple of Emei
"Didn't you give it to Master Kong, who came to beg you?" Blue Sky said.
"This is the rule that Emei set many years ago, the Qilan that treats the cold can only be used to treat the cold disease of the disciples of the Emei faction, because, although Emei is located in the south, because of the high mountain, the winter is particularly cold, and there are often disciples who freeze to death, and they need this strange flower to treat frostbite."
As soon as Master Xuyun finished speaking, he felt that his eyes lit up, and Master Kongkong was already standing in front of him, and behind Master Kongkong, there was another person, but it was the Heavenly Monkey Wang Fengzi Wang Divine Doctor.
"Master Xuyun, don't come unharmed?" Master Kongkong folded his hands and said.
"Empty old monk, I see that you really have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, but my Qilan can't be given to outsiders."
"Amitabha, Master Xuyun, what's so difficult about this." Master Empty said with a smile.
"This old nun is really hard to do." After Xuyun finished speaking, he turned to Wang Fengzi and said: "Wang Fengzi, I didn't let you go up the mountain a few days ago, it's my apprentice Jing'er's injury seems to have improved, plus the ridiculous things you did twenty years ago, I really don't want to see you, now, Jing'er's injury is aggravated, you should come and take a look." ”
"I'm afraid this wound can't be cured unless you give us flowers." Blue Sky said.
"Humph! These are two different things, Wang Fengzi, you said it yourself, will you treat Jing'er's injury or not? Master Xuyun stared at Wang Fengzi and said.
"This? This one......! Wang Fengzi has no idea.
"Master Kongkong, Master Xuyun, it's better to let Lingyazi worship you as a teacher, won't she become a disciple of the Emei faction?" Zhu Yu said.
"yes, it's a good way to get the best of both worlds, Master Xuyun, what do you think?" The blue sky is like waking up from a dream.
"This doesn't seem to violate the rules of the Emei faction! You are a child, your heart is still alive, and you have a great future in the future. Master Xuyun looked at Zhu Yu and smiled.
"Master Kongkong, let's go and pick up the spirit tooth to come to Efeng Emei to apprentice." Zhu Yu looked at Master Kongkong and said.
"There's no need to pick it up, he and Linghuazi, Linglinzi, Lan Ling'er, Zhao Li and Luo Lin are on their way up the mountain." Wang Fengzi said.
"So you had a plan?" Lan Tian asked.
"It's too much time to come and go, so Master Kongkong asked us to come to Emei together, but I didn't expect it to be the right one."
The apprenticeship process of the Emei faction is very cumbersome.
Early the next morning, Master Xuyun asked Yi'er to accompany Lingyazi, bathe first, and then change into the clothes of the Emei sect disciples—a white skirt, and meditate in a room on the side of the main hall for four hours, called purifying the body and purifying thoughts.
Coming out of the secret room, Yi'er came to the main hall dedicated to Sakyamuni with the spirit tooth, got nine hundred and eighty-one pillars of incense, kowtowed nine hundred and eighty-one heads in front of the statue, and then came to the side hall dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva, with seven seven hundred and forty-nine pillars of incense, and seven seven hundred and forty-nine kowtows in front of the statue of Guanyin.
After the worship was completed, Lingyazi came to the Emei faction meeting hall, at this moment, Xuyun Master sat on the main seat too early, and the Buddha, Yi'er and dozens of Emei male and female disciples were in a strict manner, standing quietly on both sides.
The hall was filled with smoke, and the incense burning around it was more than halfway through, and Yi'er walked step by step to a foot in front of the Void Cloud Throne and knelt on the futon.
Xuyun Shitai stepped down from his seat, stretched out his hand, and circled the top of Lingyazi's head three times to the left and three times to the right, and then closed his eyes, put his hands together, and chanted words, but he couldn't hear what he was saying.
After Xuyun finished reciting the incantation, a disciple had already brought a plate with vermilion, and the plate contained a stick that was a little thicker than chopsticks and flat at both ends.
After doing this, Xuyun returned to his seat and said, "Spirit Tooth." ”
Lingyazi replied, "The disciple is here." ”
"From today on, you are the fourth disciple of the thirty-third generation of the Emei faction, you must respect the master, cultivate hard, punish the evil and promote the good, and abide by the twenty-two precepts of my Emei faction, can you do it?" Xuyun Shitai said.
"The disciple can do it." Lingyazi said.
"The apprenticeship ceremony is over, everyone goes back to practice, recently, there are Tibetan monks to my Central Plains to make trouble, everyone must be vigilant, guard their respective Buddhist temples, find that there is an abnormality, and pass the book to my flying pigeon." After Master Xuyun finished speaking, he waved his hand, and all the disciples said goodbye to Xuyun in unison, and withdrew from the main hall one after another, leaving only Yi'er and three or two young disciples of three generations to accompany Xuyun and Lingyazi.
"Lingyazi, you go to the guest room to rest first, and after Wang Fengzi finishes treating Jing'er's injuries, I will give Qilan to him to treat your injuries." After Master Xuyun finished speaking, she got up and walked out of the main hall with Yi'er and a few young disciples.
Seeing that Master Xuyun was out of the main hall, Hua Gu and Lan Ling'er, who were already waiting outside the door, walked into the main hall and helped Lingyazi to the backyard guest room.
Although Lingyazi used to take a daily bath in the Yandang Mountain Hot Spring to drive away the cold, but because the internal force is difficult to gather, it is only an expedient measure, this day, it is indeed a little tired, and it needs someone to support to walk, but fortunately, yesterday the master of the empty sky on the road for her to drive away the cold, controllable two days of cold, so, there is no need to drive away the cold today.
On the same day, in the process of Lingyazi's apprenticeship and Wang Fengzi's treatment of Jing'er's injuries, Master Kongkong took Zhu Yu, Lan Tian, Zhao Li, and Luo Lin to play in the mountains under the leadership of two male disciples of the Emei faction.
Mount Emei is the Guanyin Dojo, which everyone knows, but except for the master of the empty sky, everyone has never been here, and many years ago the master of the empty sky came to Emei, and he just came in a hurry, hurriedly went, and did not have a good look in the mountain.
"In Mount Emei, there are a total of thirty-two monasteries that belong to Buddhism, and there are more Taoisms, but Taoism in Mount Emei never practices martial arts, so everyone doesn't know much." A male disciple said as he walked.
This male disciple is very tall, with a fair complexion, dressed in green clothes, with long hair and no shaved head, which is also a characteristic of the Emei sect disciples that distinguishes them from other Buddhist sects.
"How many male and female disciples do you have here? How did you get apprenticed? Where do you live separately? Zhu Yu asked.
"Every temple on Mount Emei has disciples living in it, more than hundreds of people, few dozens, men and women are separated, each temple has a master with high martial arts, and he is also the master of these disciples." Another young disciple said.
This male disciple was very short, dark-skinned, and had bright eyes, and was also dressed in green clothes with long hair.
"I heard that you can accept lay disciples?" Zhu Yu asked.
"Everyone who wants to learn the martial arts of the Emei sect can go to the mountain to learn the arts, but they can only be regarded as lay disciples, and they can come and go freely." The tall young man said.
"In this way, didn't you leak the martial arts of the Emei faction?" Zhao Li asked.
"Lay disciples, they can only learn some of the Emei sect's martial arts, even if they are sect disciples, only if they are outstanding in martial arts, can they get the true transmission of Xuyun Master." The short young man replied.
"For example, the Yuntong fingering method of Emei pressing the box, at present, only the three disciples with the highest martial arts, Fo'er, Yi'er, and Jing'er, are practicing." Tall youth supplement.
As they walked, they followed the path in the mountains, climbed down the hill, and came to a temple that was more than 300 zhang away from the temple where they lived.
From the outside of the door, this temple is not big, but when the eight people pushed open the temple door, they saw a courtyard dozens of zhang wide on one side, and dozens of men were practicing various commonly used weapons such as swords, clubs, and sticks in the courtyard.
In the middle of the venue, a short and fat middle-aged male disciple in gray was holding his hands behind his back, teaching everyone in the field to practice weapons.
Seeing the eight people entering the courtyard, the gray-clothed disciple came over, folded his hands, saluted everyone, and said, "Yu Xin, Guohe, you two are so Yaxing, come to me for advice?" ”
It turned out that the tall young man was called Yu Xin, and the short young man was called Guohe.
"Yin Cai, you continue to practice, let's just take a look at the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas and Arhats in your temple." Yu Xin said as he walked into the main hall with a few people from one side.
In the hall, there are three saints in the East in Buddhism, that is, the Buddha, the Great Trend to the Bodhisattva and the Maitreya Buddha, and there are seven or eight children and virgins around the three Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, whether they are three Buddhas and Bodhisattvas or virgins and boys and girls, all of them are vivid, like real bodies, Zhu Yu couldn't help but be very interested, and asked Yu Xin and Guohe: "Two senior brothers, why are the Buddhas offered in this temple and the main temple and the temple where you are located are different?" ”
"In all the temples of Mount Emei, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas enshrined are different, and even some temples only worship Arhats, not a single Buddha." Guohe said.
"Every pilgrim, who comes thousands of miles to Emei, in addition to going to the Guanyin Hall on the mountainside and the Mahavira Hall dedicated to Sakyamuni, will also go to the temple to worship their own talisman Buddha according to their own preferences." Yu Xin added.
After watching several temples in a row, Guohe and Yu Xin took six people to a waterfall.
