Seilai Temple, late at night.

In the monk's room.

Yi Bai and the abbot of Xilai Temple sat down on the futon.

Before the two had yet to talk about Buddhism, the abbot first taught Yi Bai how to 'sit in meditation'.

Eber quickly mastered this method.

After learning zazen.

Yi Bai discovered the magic of zazen.

The so-called zazen is a special meditation posture and a special method of breathing, so that he can get rid of distracting thoughts and comprehend the Dharma.

When Ibo was doing zazen, he was able to perceive that his thoughts of the word were running unconsciously.

It's just that he can't sit on the pillar incense time, so he feels that his body is sore and unbearable.

"Abbot, I know the wonder of zazen, but this kind of zazen is too unbearable."

Yibo complained.

"Tan Yue comprehended zazen at the beginning, it was excusable, distracting thoughts, and the demon obstacle was self-generated, and it was zazen that could be reasoned with the remnants of the scriptures, and the demon obstacle was refined, so the demon obstacle did not follow, so Tan Yue could not sit still and stand unsteadily."

The abbot of Xilai Temple clasped his hands together and said with a smile.

"Is that reasonable?"

Yi Bai was surprised.

"Since there should be, the old monk I couldn't sit still at the beginning, to speak, Tan Yue's talent for this Tao is really outstanding, recall that I first learned zazen, but I learned for a month, I didn't think about Tan Yue, now I will learn."

The abbot praised.

He was really frightened by Yi Bai's talent.

"Abbot praise, I don't know how long the abbot can sit in meditation now?"

Yibai asked.

"A year and a half is fine, ten or eight years is fine, I sit in meditation if there is nothing to do, and I will take care of it if there is something."

The abbot said calmly.

Yi Bai was surprised when he heard this, but feeling the strong Buddha nature in the abbot's body, he only felt peaceful.

"Tan Yue, please, you and I will talk about Buddhism."

The abbot said with a smile.

"Please!"

Yi Bai sat in meditation, but he was distracted and concentrated on dealing with the abbot.

The abbot also sat in meditation.

The two talked in the monk's room, preached the scriptures and participated in Zen, talked about the mysteries, and for a while, the sound of the scriptures echoed in the room, and the Buddha's light shone brightly, and the day was like the day.

The black bear spirit guarding the door was forced back by the Buddha's light, and it looked at the Buddha's light in the monk's room in amazement.

"How can there be such a Buddha light? My demonic spirit is pure, the golden pill is about to be completed, and the earth immortals are all in front of me, but this kind of Buddha light can make me afraid and timid. ”

The black bear spirit was stunned.

It has not experienced this kind of pure Dharma for many years.

It felt confused in its heart, but it knew that it was okay, and understood that this was Yi Bai talking about Buddhism with the abbot of Xilai Temple, and he didn't know it, and thought it was two Buddhas and Bodhisattvas talking about it.

"Why is Yuanchen so strange, the monster has cultivated a good Dharma."

The black bear spirit muttered.

It didn't dare to overstep, but stood farther away, guarding the door, not letting anyone disturb Yi Bai.

……

In the monk's room.

The conversation between Yiber and the abbot lasted for a day and a night.

That's when it stopped.

At the end of the discussion, Yi Bai felt that his body was warm, and the Sanskrit word 'A' was still in his mind, and he didn't really know much about Buddhism.

He was able to talk to the abbot because of his own understanding of the Buddha's teachings.

So he felt that this time he talked about it, in the end, he earned it.

That's how Imber feels.

But the abbot of Xilai Temple on the opposite side didn't feel that way.

He looked at Yi Bai in amazement.

He could see that Yi Bai hadn't read many Buddhist scriptures, but when he took out just one of them, Yi Bai's understanding of it made him refreshed and surprised.

From a Buddhist scripture, he can see how strong Yi Bai's Buddha nature is.

'Pity, pity! If this demon takes refuge in my Buddhism, his Dharma attainments will never lose to Taoism. ’

The abbot murmured in his heart.

He looked at Yi Bai with regret in his eyes.

He knew that Yi Bai was now a heavenly immortal, and there was no reason to talk about taking refuge in Buddhism.

"Thank you Abbot for your teaching!"

Yi Bai stood up from the futon and saluted.

"How can Tan Yue say such things, listening to Tan Yue's understanding of Buddhism is also of great benefit to the old monk."

The abbot folded his hands in return.

"Abbot, now that the Dharma has been discussed, it's time for me to say goodbye."

Yibai was leaving.

The abbot stopped Yi Bai and left Yi Bai to fast in the temple before leaving.

Yi Bai had no choice but to listen to his persuasion and fasted in the temple.

The abbot immediately walked out of the monk's room and personally brought the fasting meal for Yi Bai to eat.

The abbot brought two servings of food, one for Yi Bai and one for the black bear spirit.

Yi Bai didn't think anything of it, and ate happily.

It's the black bear spirit, looking at the fasting in his hand, he can't eat.

Yi Bai ignored the black bear spirit.

As he ate his meal, he suddenly remembered in his heart that there were more than a dozen water tribe demons in the underworld that were eager to become adults.

Yi Bai looked at the abbot beside him and asked, "Abbot, you have profound Dharma, may I ask you something." ”

The abbot replied with a smile, "Tan Yue, excuse me." ”

There was curiosity in his eyes, as if he wanted to know what Yi Bai wanted to ask.

"Abbot, you said that there is a way for the monsters in the world?"

Yibai asked.

"Huh??"

The abbot paused.

"Don't hide it from the abbot, I once met more than a dozen little demons in the land of Chu County......"

Yi Bai told the abbot about the dozens of little demons.

He felt sad when he mentioned that the dozen little demons of the water tribe would rather devote themselves to reincarnation and give up penance for a hundred years than become demons.

The little demon of the water tribe said 'I don't want to be a demon', which echoed in his mind from beginning to end.

When the abbot heard what Yi Bai said, he shook his head and opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't say anything.

"Abbot, you say, there is a way for the monsters in the world?"

Yi Bai asked again.

"The old monk doesn't understand this, but His Majesty in the sky should have given a way, and Twelve Yuanchen is not the best way to say."

That's all the abbot could say.

"Abbot, there are only twelve demons, and there are more than twelve demons in the world? It's a million of them! ”

Yi Bai put down the fasting food in his hand and said.

"Don't hide it from Tan Yue, I don't understand this matter, I read thousands of Buddhist scriptures, the Buddha often says, practice the Dharma to cross by yourself, out of the sea of suffering, but by chance, I have read a sentence in the Buddhist scriptures, Buddhism is divided into 'Hinayana' and 'Mahayana', Hinayana is self-crossing, Mahayana Buddhism is to cross people, or need to practice Mahayana Buddhism, in order to solve Tan Yue's question."

The abbot was very ashamed, but he was self-aware and could not solve Yi Bai's confusion.

"Mahayana Buddhism? Abbot, can you borrow a book from me? ”

Yibo pleaded.

"I have no choice, please stay less than I can."

The abbot walked out of the monk's room and went to get the book.

Yi Bai watched him leave, picked up the fasting meal in his hand, and continued to eat.

……

Not much.

Ebot finished his meal.

The abbot walked back, holding an ancient book in his hand.

"Please take a look, the book is here."

The abbot said.

"There is an abbot of Lao."

Yi Bai was very grateful, and after he thanked him, he picked up the ancient book and looked at it.

There are many scriptures written in ancient books.

Finally, he saw it on a page in the middle, and it was really said in the book that the Dharma is divided into 'Hinayana' and 'Mahayana', and the Hinayana Dharma crosses itself, and the Mahayana Dharma crosses him.

However, there is only one vague sentence in the record of Mahayana Buddhism, that is, Mahayana Buddhism is rare, and if you get Mahayana Buddhism, you can cross it by yourself, teach people to see the nature of the mind, survive death and get rid of suffering, and live without damage.

But how to find this Mahayana Dharma, there is no record in the book.

"Abbot, please take the book, I have read it."

Yi Bai handed over the ancient book to the abbot.

"Can this book be helpful to Tan Yue?"

The abbot took the book and asked.

"Yes, it's just that I don't know where this Mahayana Dharma is, and I want to go to the west when I return to heaven."

Yibai said.

He is an immortal, so there is no problem at all in going to the Western Spirit Mountain.

"So good, so good! Please Tan Yue to the land of the Ling Mountain, see the Bodhisattva Buddha, Wan Wang Tan Yue for me to say hello, said that there are Xilai Temple disciples Daokong day after day chanting, in order to see the Bodhisattva Buddha. ”

The abbot rejoiced.

"The abbot has entered the immortals, why do you need me to speak? Can't you do it, the abbot can't enter the Buddhism? ”

Yibai asked.

"Tan Yue, I can enter by myself, but this huge temple is still here, how can I abandon the temple and escape into the spiritual mountain, I still need to wait here for someone to carry this temple, I can go to see the Bodhisattva Buddha."

The abbot shook his head and said.

"So that's the case, then please rest assured, if I can see the Bodhisattva Buddha, I will definitely say a word or two for the abbot."

EPay should take it down.

When he had finished speaking, he was about to say goodbye and leave.

The abbot is self-sufficient.

He sent Yi Bai and the black bear spirit out of the temple gate, and then left.

……

Outside the Sailai Temple.

Yi Bai stood outside, looking up at the temple, thinking in his heart.

Although he did not have to visit the relics of the old Taoist monk this time, he was still very satisfied with the theory of 'Mahayana Buddhism'.

He has long known that Buddhism is divided into Hinayana and Mahayana.

But the specific division, he knows today.

Mahayana Buddhism, you can cross him by yourself!

If the demons in the world want to have a road, then Mahayana Buddhism is the road.

"Let's go, Zilu-kun."

Yi Bai waved his hand and said.

"Yes."

The black bear spirit is like a pioneer of Dharma protection, following Yi Bai's side, vigilant around.

"Zilujun, you say, the monsters in this world, are they difficult or not?"

As he walked, he said that his cloth shoes were stained with a lot of mud, and the new shoes had become old shoes.

"It's hard, it's not hard!"

The black bear spirit touched his head and said.

"What do you mean by that?"

Yi Bai stopped and asked.

"It's the demons of the world that are difficult, and we are also demons and demons of the world, so the difficult ones are demons, and the ones who are not difficult are also demons."

"You will be clever, and you will be able to shake your wit, and you will be rich first, and now you are about to become an immortal, how can you not see you, the demon who came first, think about it, how to let the demon in the world have a right way."

"Monsters have not always been like this since ancient times."

Black bear essence is a matter of course.

Yi Bai didn't speak again, but his mind often flashed the appearance of the dozens of water tribe demons when they said 'I don't want to be a demon'.

He pulled the black bear spirit on the road and walked up, intending to go to Guangxu County after inspecting Lingpei County.

……

Yi Bai spent a month in Lingpei County before entering Guangxu County.

After entering Guangxu County, it was night.

Seeing the evil spirit rushing to the sky all around, Yi Bai saw this and knew that there were many evil demons.

"Zi Lujun will go, but all the demons who are quite evil, ask the reason, if it is a wrongdoer, get rid of it!"

Yi Bai reached out and took out the halberd of the former black bear spirit from the pot and threw it to the black bear.

"Command!"

The black bear spirit caught the halberd, bowed his hand, rode away in the wind, and escaped into the mountains.

Yi Bai saw the black bear spirit leaving, there were still doubts in his eyes, he walked through several counties, but these counties were completely different from Guangxu County.

A few years ago, but there were several Yuanchen who went down to the earth every year to eliminate filth, how could there be so many evil demons.

"Land Mountain God, come and see me!"

Yi Bai stretched out his hand to make the exorcism.

Soon.

An old man came out of the ground.

"The land of Sanliwaimen Village here, meet Tiangang Yuanchen."

The old man saluted.

"Land, I ask you, why is there so much evil in this place? Didn't Xia Fan Yuanchen pass by here before? ”

Yi Bai asked aloud.

He swept away with the eyes of the law.

You can see three mountains.

Every mountain has more than a dozen evil qi floating, and the demonic qi is almost overwhelmed by the evil qi.

"Tiangang Yuanchen, if this is not the case, every year Yuanchen will come down to this place, but this year is different, there are human soldiers in Guangxu County fighting, corpses are all over the field, there are many demons taking the opportunity to go down the mountain, take the corpses away to eat, so there are so many evil spirits."

The Land Princesses explained.

"I see."

Yi Bai nodded clearly.

"Please Tiangang Yuanchen help me Guangxu County! Demons gradually appeared, and many man-eating demons, tasted the sweetness, and began to haunt the villages, feeding on people. ”

The landlord knelt on the ground and pleaded.

"Don't worry, I've sent one of my generals to slay the demons, and you get up first."

Yi Bai helped him up.

"Xie Yuanchen, Xie Yuanchen!"

The land lord thanked him again and again.

"There is no need for this, this is my duty, the land lord, I don't know what the name of the soldiers who are fighting in Guangxu County?"

Yibai asked.

"Don't hide it from Yuanchen, there are two soldiers who fought here, one is 'Huang Xu', and the other is 'Wang Ping'."

The land lord replied.

Yi Bai secretly said in his heart, 'Sure enough'.

He had heard from Shusheng Miaozhu before that Chu County, Dongjie County, Sanjiang County, Lingpei County, Guangxu County and other places were all controlled by Huang Xu.

Then the warring princes here must be Huang Xu and the other side.

I didn't talk to Huang Xu in the underworld before.

Now that I know where Huang Xu is, I should talk to him.

"I already know here, please return the land to my duty, and I will clean up this place as a demon."

Yi Bai said.

The land lord did not dare to disobey, so he said 'goodbye' and left.

Yi Bai looked around, cheered up, and showed the true dragon appearance.

Roar!!

The roar of a cow exploded.

Yi Bai twisted the dragon's body into the sky and disappeared into the clouds.

He went to the place where the evil qi was full of evil qi with the body of a true dragon, and wanted to sweep away the evil qi in this area.

……

Guangxu County.

Late at night.

In the woods, in front of a village.

Three or four demons are showing off their martial arts, besieging a three-foot old fox.

The old fox was unable to support himself, and was beaten by three or four demons to spit blood, but he refused to retreat.

"You Hu Xian, how can you be like this? If you don't eat people, you still stop us from eating people? We don't eat people, how can we transform! ”

A rat stood up and said very fiercely.

"I promised the heavenly gods to do good deeds for the villagers of Guangxu County to compensate for my sins, how can I allow you to enter the village and eat people!"

The old fox did not retreat, and stood in the way with bared teeth.

"What kind of bullshit fairy, people say you believe it? You deserve to be an immortal, you can't transform for a long time! ”

The three or four demons sneered at the old fox's words.

"There are gods in the head! You will die violently sooner or later! ”

The old fox snapped.

"If there is a god three feet above your head, then you call the god to come down to me!"

The mouse pointed to the old fox and said.

"Really?"

A voice came from the sky.

Along with the sound, there was a dragon groan.

The three or four demons looked up at the sky and saw a real dragon soaring into the air, showing its teeth and claws, so it was not mighty.

The real dragon soared into the air, reached the ground, and turned into a human form, which was Yi Bai.

Yi Bai recognized the old fox as the monster from the original 'King of the Nine Mountains' incident.

He had only just taken off, and before he had gotten rid of many evil demons, he ran into this old fox.

He hid in the clouds and observed the old fox, but the old fox's actions undoubtedly warmed his heart.

The old fox had not forgotten what had been promised to him.

How many people died because of the disaster of the Nine Mountains King, for every ten people, this old fox has to do a good deed.

It has been more than eight years since the old fox promised him.

Unexpectedly, this old fox still remembers, and has been doing good.

Yi Bai looked at the old fox with admiration.

But when he turned his head to look at the other three or four youkai, he froze.

These monsters.

It's really bad.

Since eating dead bodies on the battlefield, luckily becoming a climate, they have to inch in, and they start eating the living.

"Meet Tatsujin!"

When the old fox saw Yi Bai, he recognized it, looked at it in surprise, and knelt on the ground.

"Chen, Chenshen?"

The three or four demons didn't know the word 'Chenshen', but they could feel the oppression on Yi Bai's body, and they all crawled to the ground, not even having the courage to escape.

"Hu Xian, after a long time, are you still fine?"

Yi Bai said to the old fox.

"I'm worried, I'm fine, unharmed!"

The old fox was agitated and somewhat incoherent.

"It's good to be fine, then let's talk about what your good and evil deeds are."

Yi Bai looked at the three or four demons......
