When the young lady was still thinking about finding Li Ye to understand, Li Ye had already walked to the front of the main hall of the Great Buddha Temple with Agui, waiting for the summons of the monk.

The morning class in the temple has ended, the monks in the temple have gone back to the meditation room to rest, only three or two pilgrims from the city have prayed in front of the Buddha, and the Buddha's horn is floating in the main hall.

Li Ye looked up at the Buddha statue in the main hall, reciting the six-character mantra passed down by the old monk in his mouth, thinking to himself how I can practice to achieve the state mentioned in "The Phaseless Dharma Body".

After a while, a little monk came over and led Li Ye and Agui to the meditation room of the bitter meditation monk.

Agui gave the old monk a fasting ceremony, and went out of the meditation room to wait for Li Ye outside the door. The little monk brought Li Ye a bowl of tea and turned to leave.

The old monk looked at Li Ye with a solemn face that could not see joy or sorrow. Said: "Yes, it looks clean and energetic." ”

Li Ye hurriedly replied: "Master, Mr. said the same thing. ”

The old monk said, "You came here today, is there anything wrong?"

Li Ye turned around and said, "Last time, the master taught the Fa to his disciples, and he has not thanked him for his great kindness, so this time I want to ask for advice and solve my doubts." ”

"That thunder a few days ago struck you, right?" the old monk took a sip of tea.

"Master god, the disciple was careless, and he was struck by lightning again. My hair was also burnt, so I simply shaved it. Li Ye replied.

The old monk sighed lightly and said, "Thunder splits you, it's also for your good! Do you think, how many children are there in Fengyun City, why don't others split them? Also, how old are you, and you have already laid a foundation. ”

Li Ye was taken aback and asked, "Master, how do you know that I have built a foundation?"

The old monk smiled and said, "You have cultivated the phaseless Dharma body of my Buddhism and shielded your cultivation, so that others can't see it, but I can." Besides, I know that you came to me for the second problem. ”

Li Ye patted his chest and replied, "It doesn't matter if the master sees it, as long as the others in the city can't see it." ”

"Master, when I was practicing the second level of the Dharma Body, all sentient beings had appearances, such as self, human, sentient beings, and long-lived beings, and the second level of Dharma was to cultivate the self-appearance first. May I ask the master, what is my appearance?"

The old monk held a flower in his left hand, turned the Buddha beads with his right hand, and said: "Hum, well, what, horn, Mi, huh!" I saw a golden light emerging behind the old monk, and the house was full of brilliance.

Li Ye was stunned.

The old monk looked at Li Ye with a compassionate face, and said slowly: "I am the prime minister, the world has treasures, knowledge, and status, and despises everyone, and my name is my appearance.

This is the deep-seated ego, also known as self-awareness. Mortals will slowly rise from a few years old, in their daily lives.

What is my name, what my appearance is, what my talents are, how high my cultivation is, how noble my family is, and so on. As long as you think of 'me', as long as you have 'me', you don't see the reality of the Dharma.

For example, your little friend, the little princess of the General's Mansion, she will think that she is from a noble background, and now she is practicing with a master with strong martial arts, she will be more noble than many people.

For example, if you are born in the Master's Academy, you read more books than others, and you have practiced with Mr. Mo, which is also a fate that others do not have, and you will think that you have been struck twice by lightning since you were born, which is also the capital of your pride, don't you say?

The old monk smiled and came together to explain the many doubts in Li Ye's heart.

Li Ye lowered his head and pondered for a long time, raised his head, looked at the old monk, and only replied for a while: "Master, it turns out that I have always thought like this, and even I think that I am the master of Agui, and I am more noble than him." ”

After speaking, there was a face of repentance, and tears flowed down his eyes.

When the old monk saw Li Ye's appearance, he was very happy, and said in his heart: "The son can be taught." ”

After watching the two bowls of tea, the old monk said: "You have Buddha nature and can practice Buddhism." Would you like to learn the Dharma from me as a teacher?"

Li Ye hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed to the old monk, and said, "Respect the teacher, and be worshiped by the disciple." ”

The old monk lifted Li Ye with both hands, full of joy, "From today on, you are my disciple." May you be dustless and faceless on the path of cultivation, and you will be named: dust-free. ”

Li Ye thanked again, clasped his hands together, and saluted the old monk.

"You just practice Buddhism with me, you don't need to become a monk, so the precepts are not too demanding for you, remember: you have to keep not lying, respect the Buddha and respect people, and don't take the initiative to kill, can you do it?"

Li Ye nodded and said, "Master don't worry, I will definitely respect the Buddhas, respect the teacher, and not kill living beings indiscriminately." ”

The old monk also nodded, expressing his appreciation. He also said, "Just now, I said that I am the prime minister, you should practice first from now on." Wait until one day when I am successful, and then I will teach you what selflessness is. ”

The old monk took a sip of tea, looked at him and continued: "The truth of my physiognomy has been explained to you to understand, how to practice in yourself. You can go to the halls of the Buddhas, look at the Buddhas' faces with your eyes, and then practice your own self-appearance. ”

"Master, how do you practice?" Li Ye really didn't understand, I haven't started yet.

The old monk said softly: "Buddhism's practice is to say: standing like a pine, walking like the wind, sitting like a clock, I am flawless and complete." You start by carrying water, and when you return to the academy, you first carry three bowls of water, one bowl on your head, one bowl on each shoulder, and when you walk without spilling water, come again. ”

With a wave of his hand, he asked Li Ye to leave and go to the front of the hall to see the Buddha statue.

Li Ye saluted the old monk, turned around and walked out of the meditation room, called Agui, and went to the main hall to see the Buddha statue together.

The two arrived at the main hall and meditated in front of the Buddha, and Li Ye carefully observed the Buddha's Dharma while reciting the scriptures.

But see the big Buddha on the hall each is a treasure solemnity, no recognition is from the left view, or from the right view, are perfect, whether it is the Buddha's hand of the flower, or the Buddha's hand of the dervishes, or the Buddha holding the sword, all are wonderful images, the more you look at the more fascinated.

Unconsciously it was noon, Ah Gui touched his stomach and said, "Young master, it's noon, I'm hungry, let's go back." ”

Li Ye looked back at the sky, glanced at Agui again, and said, "I know how to eat, let's do this today, let's go back to the academy to cook, I guess Mr. didn't eat either." ”

Ah Gui was overjoyed, and hurriedly helped Li Ye to get up, and said in his heart: Mr. is not expected to be hungry.

The two of them walked out of the main hall, left the Big Buddha Temple, and returned to Mr. Zizhuyuan.

The two walked on the street, and in the city in the afternoon, people came and went, and everyone they knew pointed to Li Ye and smiled: Our little genius in Fengyun City is going to become a monk?

Li Ye wanted to be angry, but when he thought about what the old monk said, he didn't say anything to everyone, but just smiled faintly at everyone, telling Agui to hurry up, hungry.

Everyone laughed, and the little monk was shy.

On the way home from the Tang Dynasty of the academy, he also met Li Ye. Ran quickly, took Li Ye's hand, and shouted wildly: "Brother, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you a monk? Who are we brothers going to play with in the future?" After speaking, he wanted to touch Li Ye's bald head.

Li Ye was so angry that he immediately wanted to clean up people, and when he raised his hand to fight the Tang Dynasty, he thought to himself if I was a manifestation of my appearance?

So, he grabbed Tang Chao's hand and pretended to be serious and said: "Brother, your belly has grown again, hurry up and work hard to lose weight, maybe the princess of the General's Mansion will change her mind!"

After speaking, he let go of his hand and said, "I'll go to Mr.'s courtyard to practice, do you want to join us?"

When Tang Chao heard this, he screamed indiscriminately: "The young lady of the General's Mansion still keeps it for you, and let her beat you eight times a day! In the afternoon, you have to go back to the academy to attend the master's class, and if you miss class, you will be punished by the master's board." Let's go. ”

After walking a few steps, he looked back at you Ye and shouted, "Anyway, you won't really become a monk and become a little monk, will I call you a master in the future?"

Li Ye was so angry that he couldn't help but pick up a stone from the ground and throw it towards the Tang Dynasty. I heard a strange scream in the distance.

Agui followed behind and laughed. There is no shortage of jokes when the heart follows the young master.

The master and servant unconsciously walked to the door of the General's Mansion, only to see the young lady looking at Li Ye with her hands crossed. Li Ye wanted to turn around and run away, but he didn't expect his sister to swing her skirt, so she chased after her, shouting as she ran: "Li Ye, stop, and I'll chase you to Zizhu Courtyard again!"

Li Ye heard that there was no trick, so he had to stop and look at the young lady who ran close speechlessly. Agui slipped aside and giggled.

The young lady ran to Li Ye's side, and raised her hand like Tang Dynasty to touch Li Ye's bald head, Li Ye was frightened, jumped away at once, and shouted: "What do you want to do, there is a difference between men and women!"

The young lady didn't touch it for a while, so she didn't pout, and said to Li Yexun: "Okay, why did you shave your hair, and you want to go to the Big Buddha Temple to become a monk? Be careful that my father goes to the Big Buddha Temple, and the monk is not allowed to accept you!"

When Li Ye heard this, he also laughed angrily, and said in his heart that I am yours, but he was embarrassed to say it, so he just replied: "Your Royal Highness Princess, please respect yourself, the Big Buddha Temple is a pure land of Buddhism, is it a place forbidden by the general's order?"

The young lady was also anxious when she heard this, and jumped to her feet and said, "His old monk dares not to listen?!"

Li Yexin said in his heart, I can't afford to provoke and hide, and hurriedly replied: "Okay, your family is the biggest, I have to listen to you!"

His eyes rolled, and he replied: "Her Royal Highness the princess, you have already become a monk in the Great Buddha Temple, and you won't hold a grudge against me in the future! If not, you can consider that kid from the Tang Dynasty in our academy, wouldn't it be more fun for you to catch him to lose weight?"

After saying this, he threw a look at Agui, which means that you are not hungry? I ran first,

Give the young lady a goodbye hand pose. The young lady was so angry that she had a toothache, thinking that this princess didn't go out with an arrow, or she would give you an arrow to your ass and make you suck.

"I said Li Ye, don't be complacent, be careful when I talk to the master to talk to Mr. and ask the master to teach you to me, take you to practice archery for a few days, and see where you hide when you arrive!"

Li Ye was shocked, maybe this girl really dared to go to Mr., and her steps couldn't help but be faster.

The sun was high, and the young lady turned around and went home, and went home for dinner.
