Daming Temple was built in the Southern Dynasty at the beginning, because the year name was Daming, so it was called "Daming Temple". On the 60th birthday of Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian, the edict ordered the whole country to set up 30 pagodas to worship the Buddha's bone relics, one of which is in this Daming Temple, which is called "Qiling Tower". The tower is nine storeys high and magnificent. Later, because of the name of the temple from the tower, Daming Temple is also known as Qiling Temple. ”

"The ice girl is very knowledgeable, so do you know which monk in this Daming Temple was the most famous back then?"

The little girl who was praised had a little smug on her face, peeked at the child, saw him looking at herself with a smile, and said shyly:

"That is naturally the great virtue of Jianzhen who traveled to the east to spread the law, and the great master of Jianzhen traveled to the east six times before he reached the other side and saved thousands of confused believers. ”

"Master Jianzhen is a person with great perseverance, in order to travel to the east to spread the Fa, even though he is blind, even though he has gray hair, he is still determined not to change, and finally fulfills his long-cherished wish. ”

Although Lin Mu was a little puzzled why Master Jianzhen could also be gray-haired, at this time, when he saw that his teacher was on the rise, he didn't say much, and he couldn't sweep away the teacher's interest.

Lin Mu and his entourage were in the west garden of Daming Temple at this time, and the characteristics of Yangzhou gardens were vividly displayed here. It's autumn, there are a lot of pilgrims in the garden, but few people will pay attention to Lin Mu and the three people, a monk and a rich boy with a maid, such a combination is not uncommon here.

"Senior brother has been here for a few days, why doesn't the teacher meet with him?"

"I will see each other when I start to talk about the Dharma, but now we will distract him, but you, Mu boy, do you want to go to the Qiling Pagoda to have a look?"

"Tu'er doesn't like to join in the fun, not to mention that now in addition to us, the general soldiers of the Red Armor Army are also here, so it's better to be cautious for such notorious people as Tu'er. ”

When Lin Mu and his party arrived here, Lin Mu knew that the general soldiers of the Red Armor Army were also here, although the army did not accompany them. But this one, who is a first-class martial artist with superb combat power, really wants to fight, ten Lin Mu is not enough to kill one person.

As if thinking that he had neglected the little maid's thoughts, Lin Mu looked at the little maid gently and asked, "Yan Bing, do you want to go to the pillar to make incense, I see that you are quite devout in worshiping the Buddha, and the Buddha bone relics are an unavoidable opportunity." ”

The little maid shook her head gently, and the soft voice came into Lin Mu's ears,

"The wish to pray to the Buddha is close at hand, why should the servant go to the near and far. ”

Lin Mu secretly glanced at the unprecepted mage, and saw that he was calm and didn't seem to hear it, so he turned around and smiled brightly at the little girl.

The girl is pregnant with spring, and the boy is longing, that is excellent.

As for the unprecepted mage, in fact, at this time, he couldn't help but want to give Lin Mu an exclusive violent chestnut. The love between children is really beautiful, but you have to see where this is, the Daxiong Treasure Hall is not far away, and the Buddha bone relics are also enshrined in the place where you can see them.

Although I feel a little unhappy, I still have to keep the appearance of a light breeze.

"The Way of Teacher"

The bell rang, interrupting the reverie of the three of them, which meant the beginning of Wenxiu's teachings.

In front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the little monk Wenxiu in plain monk clothes sat on the futon, and the monks of the Daming Temple sat behind him.

"The little monk studied under the Liuhe unprecepted monk, did not hold the precept knife to fight the demons, and only recited the scriptures to ask the Buddhas. Today, I borrowed the treasure of Daming Temple to discuss teaching questions and study Buddhism. The little monk's voice was not loud, and the people around him could hear it clearly.

There were many pilgrims attracted by the sound of the bell, and when they saw this, someone said: "This little master is too angry, and I have also heard of the master without precepts, and he is indeed worthy of the name of a high monk." But the little master is saying such words here today, and he can't rely on the legacy of the unprecepted mage to say it. ”

Then ask the donor to ask. ”

"Let me ask the little master, what is a Buddha, what is a demon, and what is an obsession?"

"Correct knowledge and correct view are Buddhas, evil knowledge and evil views are demons, greed, and attachment can be called obsession. Everyone in the world has Buddha nature, and if you seek transcendence, you can be called a Buddha, at the beginning of life, you have a lot of good intentions, and after knowing people and knowing people, you have desires, and then you fall into the mundane. ”

"Then according to the little master's meaning, if everyone is kind to others and gets rid of selfish desires, won't this world be able to achieve the vision of the Western Heaven Elysium?"

The donor laughed, this is the so-called Confucian gentleman's country, and it will inevitably collapse in the end. The so-called good and evil have always been relative. Today, if the little monk opens a good porridge in this Daming Temple, it is good for the poor and the idle people, it is evil. All things in heaven and earth, in the vast world, have always been the best at harmonizing yin and yang. ”

"Since the little master is a member of Buddhism, how can he quote Confucianism and Taoism?"

"There are many similarities in the teachings of the three religions, and the views of the portals are not enough, and the insights cannot be blocked by the portals. ”

When one pilgrim withdrew, another questioned.

"The little master said that all things in heaven and earth should be harmonized with yin and yang, so why should we meditate and practice Buddhism?

"Sowing good causes today, he avoids evil consequences every day, and for the individual benefactor, accumulating good fortune is for a better life. As for the things of this world, it is not the power of one person that can save them. ”

Hearing this answer, the senior monks of Daming Temple in the rear also nodded again and again.

Time passed quietly in such a question and answer, and the unprecepted master below had tears in his eyes, seeing that he was in high spirits, and there was a situation where one person had debated a temple, and the unprecepted master was full of relief in his heart.

Looking at the little monk Wenxiu in the dark, as well as the chief soldier of the Red Armor Army, the appearance of the little monk sitting on the futon and talking eloquently made the chief soldier quite emotional, I said, people with ability should be so high-profile.

This is also the creed of this general soldier, his soldiers have always been the most eye-catching red armor on the battlefield, even if they attract the fiercest attacks of the enemy, they can also win the battle, which is why they are named "Red Armor Army".

"Mr. Qin, you chose this little master to take on the important task?"

"It depends on whether the abbot can convince him, and I can't wait to do the persecution of the Han people. ”

"No. ”

...

"It's time to leave, Wen Xiu's performance today is far beyond the teacher's expectations, he has been able to handle this matter perfectly. ”

"Then Senior Brother Wenxiu's next trip to other temples, we won't go either?"

"There is no need to go anymore, Buddhism also needs a Buddha who can hold up the banner at this time, and various Buddhist temples will also give it convenience. ”

Then I did as the teacher commanded. ”

Before the three of them left, they glanced at the little monk Wenxiu, more and more pilgrims gathered here, after today, in this Yangzhou, the name of the monk Wenxiu is well known!

When I got out of the temple gate, I saw a blind old monk standing here with his hands on his sleeves.

"The donor's sword, but it was held by the unprecepted mage in the past?"

Lin Mu stopped, holding a knife in each hand, and was about to unsheath. The unprecepted mage's eyes signaled that he didn't need to be nervous, and Lin Mu let go of the handle of the knife and replied:

"It is the one held by the Master of the Unprecepts, one is the one who knows his fate, and the other is the Dark. ”

"A ray of light in the darkness, appropriate to the situation, appropriate to the occasion! The benefactor invites convenience, and the poor monk is presumptuous. ”

Lin Mu and the little maid walked out in confusion, only to see the unprecepted mage who was full of happiness just now, and there was already a little haze on his face at this time...
