Chapter 266, Life Teacher (II)
Although these men spoke in a heavy dialect, it did not affect Lu Feng's understanding, Lu Feng said: "We are monks who have come to study abroad, and we have a letter of recommendation, so we specially came to the temple to find a noble master to guide us and others. β
Lu Feng took out the letters, but he didn't give them to the men in front of him, so he didn't let them see them.
These men did not understand what the "recommendation" was, but this did not affect their knowledge of what the monks were here to do. This also shows that these men themselves are "head men" and "samurai" classes, otherwise, they would not understand these words.
The "attendant monks" that Lu Feng saw in the Tantric Law Domain on weekdays, the monks who had served the "monks", they were not the lowest serfs in the Tantric Law Domain.
The serfs at the lowest level of the Esoteric Domain have no thoughts and no sorrows.
They are left with the "survival instinct".
There is no joy or joy, no pain, no thinking, and there is indifferent "nothing" in the eyes, which is "dead silence", and there is nothing about "life" and "death", let alone "communication", which requires "logic" of words.
- Ordinary is to find a person with different thinking and uneven logic, and there will be difficulties in communication, and there will be things like "you come out of your mouth" and "he listens to him", not to mention such a serf who has been tortured and has no human thinking? Lu Fengzhi had seen such serfs once, when he was studying the scriptures, when he was reciting scriptures for those tusi outside.
Only those leaders, and even "high-level slaves" like White Pearl, will have their own thoughts, no matter what this thought and careful thinking is, at least they will "think".
The men took out the colorful ribbons from their horse bags and hung them on the mounts of Lu Feng and the True Master, and then motioned for them to follow, galloping on their horses.
Those "grass stupid" also followed their masters, running in the short places of the grass,
When Lu Feng and the True Consciousness Master followed, Lu Feng even had the energy to look at these colorful ribbons, on these ribbons, there was a strong smell of incense, obviously, they should be enshrined in front of the Buddha's silk, and it is also forbidden to tie up a temple like this temple, which can be used as colorful silk to be used as ribbons.
People walk with the wind, as if they were in the wind. The speed of the group walking was very fast, with these men leading the way, there was nothing else blocking the road, Lu Feng felt all the way, and he didn't feel any treacherous atmosphere! Following these men, until they saw a sparkling river, Lu Feng knew that their destination, the Zha Ju Temple, was about to arrive!
There are three rivers next to the main temple of Zaju, the largest of which is called "Tongtian River", and there is also a river called "Jinniu River", and the last river translates to "Fat Niuyang River".
These three rivers, regardless of whether they are the "Tongtian River" or the "Jinniu River", are all the same as the rivers of the same name that Lu Feng knew before.
And these three rivers are so important that even the masters in the temple don't know where the "heavens" of this "river to heaven" are.
These "rivers" do not seem to come out of places such as large glaciers, this "Tongtian River" is in the shape of ~, and the Zaju temple is outside the floodplain of this ~ river, that is, you can see the Zaju temple when you see this completely spreading river.
After seeing this river, Lu Feng saw the green smoke in the distance.
The green smoke went straight up to the nine heavens.
The strong fragrance can be smelled even against the wind.
The invisible scripture culture made a tangible fire wind, violently blowing around the square temple of the Zha Ju Temple, and even in the wind, the sound of the scriptures is like a mosquito and fly, falling in the ears, but like the Huanglu bell, knocking in the heart, and even those green smoke fell on the nine heavens, you can still see these green smoke turned into the faces of various Bodhisattvas, and the wind moved and then dispersed, extremely special!
The man in front of him also brought Lu Feng and the others to the place, and the man explained: "Two masters, I took the two masters to the Zhacang Monastery and found the master. β
Lu Feng said: "Good! β
The square of the temple of Zaju, there are eight gates, the temple is located on the left hand side of this temple, it is the temple of the eight arms of the "Mani Jewel", is the "supreme wisdom fire", "is the spring of wisdom Prajna".
It is a "temple within a temple" that can be independent of the temple and operate on its own.
Next to this building, is the "Printing Academy", although there is no temple built by the mountain in the secret law domain in turn, built according to the mountain, but the "printing institute" of the temple is flat but profound, the outer wall of the outside, the color is extremely gorgeous, showing beeswax yellow and earth yellow, vermilion, covering an extremely wide area, stop this building, quite the local style of the secret law domain, the door is very small, a lacquered vermilion gate, even with the dark blue glazed tiles that shelter the wind and rain, hang on the door.
Prayer flags were attached to the door and to the left and right of the door. At the door, the two sheng buildings stand in front of the door, and unlike the Zhakura Monastery, where monks enter and leave from time to time, the gate of this printing institute is closed, and two navy blue curtains cover this important Buddhist holy place, and no one is allowed to enter and exit at will.
As for Lu Feng and the Zhacang Monastery they walked into, the gate is painted vermilion, but the walls are white, the whole Zhacang is divided into several parts, there are the fine houses for the big donors and senior monks, there are several monks together in the "Datong Shop", as well as the main hall when studying, the main hall when preaching, these buildings are progressive, the outermost is the "Datong Shop", to the inside, it is the fine house, the place where the scripture masters rest, the hall where the Buddhist scriptures and Buddha statues are enshrined, and the more you go inside, the more gorgeous the color is, the more beautiful the house, the more "saturated" it falls in people's eyes.
The place where they went was the resting place of the scripture masters, and they walked along the main road, turned to the top of the path, and they could see the four-story and five-story wooden buildings on both sides, the Sanskrit sound bursts, the prayer flags are lined up, Lu Feng and the true master walked in, and the yellow-clothed monks who came and went were staggered, in terms of quantity, these monks were more than the yellow-clothed monks of the Endless White Pagoda Temple, and the number was not a little more.
Seeing Lu Feng and True Knowledge, they saluted True Knowledge, Lu Feng asked Bai Ma to wait outside, guarding the luggage, and he took the letter and True Sense to find the master recommended by Elder Mingli, and walked into the wooden attic where the scriptures were resting, someone came to ask them what they meant, Lu Feng folded his hands, presented a silver ingot, and said, "Senior brother, we want to find the Master of Shangyuan." β
"Master Shangyuan?"
The monk accepted a silver ingot from Lu Feng as an offering, and naturally he was easy to speak, so he asked Lu Feng to follow him and walk along this small alley.
After a while, after turning two or three small alleys, he stopped in a secluded place, and found a small attic with a single family, knocked on it in front of it, and said, "Senior Brother Shangyuan? Senior Brother Shangyuan? β
Lu Feng and the True Consciousness Master both glanced at it, the entire Zhacang Monastery was very strange, at this distance, whether it was wooden or stone-built watchtowers, the movement in which the two monks could hear it, but here, it was not the case.
Between opening and closing the door, there is the difference between "being" and "nothing", the change between "being" and "non-existence", and before the door is opened, Lu Feng has no way of knowing where the Supreme Master is in the attic of this watchtower.
This is also something that the Endless White Pagoda Temple cannot do.
The True Knowing Guru stroked his hookah bottle.
In the past three years, his identity as a monk has long been gone, and his identity as a "monk of the precept institute" is a "monk official", he can still be a monk of the Zha Ju Monastery, but it is absolutely impossible to still be a monk of the Zha Ju Monastery, so on this trip, he is wearing no inner lining of the previous blue clothes, he is now wearing a simple bright yellow inner lining and earthy red monk robes.
Monks with the same Dharma should also be taught as "monks", so this Shangyuan Guru should have a higher status than the True Consciousness Guru.
The door opened.
The guru inside was revealed.
Lu Feng immediately explained: "Master, I am a monk from the 'Endless White Pagoda Temple', and I have come to see the Master with a letter from the 'Endless White Pagoda Temple'. β
Master Shangyuan looked at the two people outside, motioned for them to come in, and said, "It's really strange, these days, the monks from the Endless White Pagoda Temple have all been in the limelight.
Why don't you go to your Mingfa elders? Don't you know your Mingfa elders' status in the temple?
He is now able to establish his name in the templeβyou have come to seek me, but who has recommended you? Is it reasonable? β
When Master Shangyuan thought about this, he immediately thought of Mingli, and Lu Feng said, "What Master has seen is extremely clear. β
At such a time, a smile appeared on the face of the Venerable Master, and he said, "Although I have never met with your Elder Mingli, in the Endless White Pagoda Temple, there are very few people who can practice the 'Lord Ming Lord Dharma Protector Mantra' to his level, and he is a monk with great blessing and great perseverance.
It's also a great blessing for me to be friends with someone like him! He is willing to ask you to come to me to be your teacher, and even I will rejoice!
Ok, good, good! β
The Venerable Master smiled and took the front half of their bodies to the first floor of the Great Sutra Hall, where there was a Dharma Mandala Thangka enshrined in the middle of the incense, and in addition to them, there were two monks sitting in the middle of it, and when they saw the Venerable Master "going and returning", these two monks and their servants also bowed to the Guru again.
Lu Feng swept over them slightly.
The heart is like a mirror.
I know the origins of these people.
This should also be the monk who came here to find a "life teacher" - there is no rule that a "life teacher" can only bring a foreign monk!
Looking at the appearance of these monks, there were several of them, Lu Feng saw the "merits" behind them!
'Blessings of merit! β
This is what Lu Feng never imagined, and he can see someone here again with the "merit of the secret law domain"!
This "merit" can be regarded as the greatest benefit he received from surrendering to the "powerful trick" last time.
The two monks in front of him, one looked like he was in his teens, and the other looked like he was seven or eight years old, they were both wearing monk robes, but none of them were red-clothed monks like Lu Feng, but they were all mantra bearers.
Lu Feng had to turn around in his mind a little to know where they came from!
It turned out to be two reincarnated Buddhas!
The Guru of True Consciousness said that within the scope of the Dharma obscuration of the Zhagyu Monastery, there are also many ancient temples, and these ancient temples are either other sects in the past, or they are ancient lineages that have declined, and the grassland where the Zhagyu Monastery is located is also very far-reaching and unfathomable.
There are few people, or no name, but none of them can be underestimated!
What are these two ancient temple reincarnated Buddhas doing here?
Do they have to look for a "life teacher" like themselves before they can enter the Zhagyu Monastery?
Lu Feng felt that something was wrong.
It is important to know that the position of "life teacher" is to seek a person with "innocent origin" as a monk studying in the temple, so the difficulty has been raised, and the monk outside must be called to find the monk in the temple, and the master in the temple to be a guarantee.
But for the reincarnated Buddhas of the other monasteries on the grassland, how could they ever need to raise the teachers of the monastery as "life teachers" to prove their origins?
Aren't they innocent enough?
It doesn't matter if these are these, Lu Feng's focus is on the next examination.
He has no way of knowing how many people are competing with him for the "Fifth Order" examination, but he is bound to win the "Fifth Order" examination, and he must hold it in his hands!
How is the sixth order of the sixth order of the temple, Lu Feng has nothing to know, should be the sixth order of the first examination of the "authority", pinched in the temple, even if it is a temple like the endless white pagoda temple, it will also be "presided over by the Venerable" after the "Buddha's enemy" in the temple, open the door of convenience, in the current year and the next year's examination, relax the number of people, paste money for "big almsgiving", supplement the number of masters, and the temple can naturally be lifted.
But this is true for the "sixth order", but not for the "fifth order"! If you want to increase the number of "Fifth Order" degrees, you must get the consent of the "Temple of the Source of the Dharma", in other words, the "authority" to expand the number of teachers is in the hands of the "Temple of the Source of the Laws".
None of the "Zaju Temple" has the final say!
Among the three positions, one of the three positions will be released, and a monk like Lu Feng will be asked to debate and study, and the remaining two positions, there is one, which is their own in the temple, and the other is the "Hubilhan" and "Hutu Ketu" of such a big temple as the "Endless White Pagoda Temple"!
Therefore, Lu Feng saw these reincarnated Buddhas with "merit" appear here, and appeared under the same "life teacher" seat as him, which made Lu Feng feel a disturbing breath, although the breath was shattered as soon as it came out, turned into a kind of spirituality, and appeared beside Lu Feng, so that Lu Feng knew what it meant to "there must be a demon when things go wrong".
But in addition to what Master Shangyuan said just now, their "Endless White Pagoda Temple" has appeared a "limelight" and "famous teacher" like Elder Mingfa.
Lu Fengzhi felt that when he first arrived, he had not really arrived at the Zha Ju Temple, and the wind here in the Zha Ju Temple was getting stronger and stronger!
It's still a demon wind!
What is it? Is the wind and rain coming, and the building is overwhelmed?
