Among the dynasties of the Central Plains, the territory of the Daluo Dynasty is so wide that it can be said that there are no ancients, and the four directions of the east, west, north and south, have all expanded to the limit, so prosperous, naturally attracted countless foreigners to go to Daluo, and even settled here, Tubo, Uighur, Tianzhu, Fusang, Goryeo, and so on.

These people came to Chang'an from thousands of miles away, in addition to wanting to learn some things from Da Luo, naturally they also brought a lot of strange things that were not available in the Central Plains, food, spices, scriptures, etc., covering all aspects, so in Chang'an City, in addition to the cross temple of Jingjiao, there are also Wojiao temples imported from Persia, as well as Buddhist temples from Tianzhu.

Compared with the Nestorian Religion and the Wo Religion, which were hundreds of years late, although Buddhism was not born in the Central Plains, it is reliable that countless eminent monks and great masters have worked tirelessly to preach the Dharma by example, and its teachings are also more accepted by the world, so it has achieved vigorous development in the Central Plains, and even does not lose its Tianzhu ancestral court.

However, since hundreds of years ago, after the Buddhist scriptures were introduced to the Central Plains, due to fate, several branches were born from it, and the Mahayana and Hinayana are not detailed for the time being, in short, the more famous, that is, the eight major sects of sexuality, phase, Taiwan, sage, Zen, purity, law, and esoteric.

The Taishang sage once said, "The Tao is the way, the Tao is not the way, the name is famous, the name is not the name", if the truth of heaven and earth is expressed only by thousands of words, there will naturally be a certain deviation, which is the "word barrier" mentioned by Buddhism In addition, the early masters who translated the Buddhist scriptures from Tianzhu were mostly translated word by word, and they may be accurate when they look at it alone, but they can be connected together, and it is far from the original classics, not to mention the various explanations imposed by later generations, which are even more confusing.

Although in fact, all kinds of Buddhism end up on different paths, just like a mirror, and when you look at it from different angles, you will see different scenery, but at the root of it, it will always be just a mirror, but the world is ignorant and difficult to understand, and after many tangible conflicts of interest arise, they turn into mutual contempt, denounce each other as evil ways and outsiders, and regard themselves as orthodox, even at the expense of swords, and this is the source of the conflict.

After Tantra was introduced into the Central Plains from Tianzhu, because of its way to become a Buddha, it was in the limelight for a while, and it also attracted the joint suppression of other factions, which was the root of Da Luo's destruction of Buddha decades ago.

Born under the Tantric sect, the former Youzhou Town Wusi Wuhou Wei Tuo was also cut his throat at that time, but finally escaped into the mountains by relying on the firm obsession of spreading the fire, and burned the wound on his neck to stop the bleeding with the hot charcoal fire, and ate raw mountain stream fish every day, and fought with wild beasts for the cave, so he tossed for three months before he barely survived, and then went away to Youzhou, just to take refuge.

After this catastrophe, the Tantric method disappeared in the Central Plains, but the Tibetan generation still has a strict inheritance, and Wei Tuo, as a possible only surviving disciple of the Central Plains Tantric Buddhism, can imagine how strong his desire for reviving Tantra and restoring the Dharma is so strong that he willingly gave his life with a sentence from the imperial court, including dedicating his only relative.

It is better to fight to the death, and if you succeed, you will have done your best, and this is Wei Tuo's truest thoughts, so when Li Qingchen finally killed him, he was relieved and no longer obsessed.

In Chang'an City, there is a Qinglong Temple, which is the ancestral court of Tantric Buddhism in the Central Plains, and the White Horse Temple outside Luoyang City is far away, once the two temple monks gathered in one place, after bathing and changing clothes, light sandalwood, spit lotus flowers in the mouth, the scene of loud dialectic, and also pass on the throne for a while, but things are not people, now the temple has burned all the classics of the fundamental doctrine of Tantra, Chang'an City, there are no Tantric practitioners.

At night, someone outside the Qinglong Temple suddenly knocked on the door gently, and after a little novice walked out of it with his hands folded, the person who came respectfully handed the little master a prayer post.

Ordinary people naturally can't run in during this kind of curfew, but the identity of the person who came is not bad, this person is the middle-aged man who had negotiated with Mo Luo in the street tavern, this time he is still dressed plainly, but the family emblem on the envelope can still be recognized at a glance, even if this little master can't be recognized, his master, his master's master, someone will always recognize it, so he didn't wait too long outside the door, and was greeted by two big monks together.

As soon as the gate is closed, the outside of the temple returns to silence, but seeing the moon and the wind is clear, a good scene, and the dark clouds of the sky are really covered, which is the limit of the vision of all living beings.

In a palm-sized hut, two futons, a table, two teacups, and a pot of white tea are almost all the furnishings in the room, and there is a polished bronze oil lamp on the table.

The man was led by the monk in the temple to take off his shoes outside the door, and after entering the house, he stepped forward and knelt on the futon outside, put his hands folded on the top of his forehead, and lay down respectfully, which was regarded as a visit to each other, and the middle-aged monk behind the table who was extremely burly and full of majesty between his eyebrows and eyes just folded his hands and sang a Buddha name in a low voice.

The monk looked at him about thirty years old, although he was sitting cross-legged, but he looked as if he was standing up to the sky, with two thick eyebrows and deep facial features, the man just glanced at him, and then lowered his head in fright, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, recalling all the evil things he had done in his life.

There is no kindness, only infinite majesty!

Although Buddhism is not good to kill, but not pedantic, the Buddha in the Bodhi tree enlightenment when there was a demon led the demons to come, Buddhism people want to universalize sentient beings, but also to fight with the demons, in addition to the need to have great wisdom and perseverance, but also need great courage, great power!

The Buddha still has a wrathful appearance, let alone a monk in the world.

Moreover, Qinglong Temple is actually divided into two temples inside and outside, the inner is a school of teaching, studying Buddhist classics, consulting Buddhism teachings, taking the common people in the sea of red dust and suffering as their own responsibility, the old host of Qinglong Temple is a senior monk who preaches the Dharma, although he has no slightest cultivation in the body, but the Buddhism is exquisite, not ordinary people can be compared, and the debate is also unparalleled in the world.

In addition, it is a school of protectors, practicing Buddhism, vowing to fight with the demons, suppressing the demons with their own immovable heart, unlimited power, and guarding the stability of the world.

Protector of the Dharma, this person is the head of the class, its Dharma name Zonghai, the Dharma is not high or not, needless to say, in short, the cultivation of this body of the heavenly phase realm is not to be fake, not to mention that Buddhism has always been both internal and external, infinite mystery, the Buddha and Bodhisattva can lead the heavens to descend the Dharma body to suppress the strong enemy, and the next can practice itself, educate all sentient beings, martial arts third-class, cultivate the body, cultivate the qi, cultivate the mind, are its strengths, in addition to all kinds of magical powers, such as karmic fire red lotus, white bone impure view, etc., are the world's first-class learning, difficult to outline one by one.

The man lowered his head, folded his hands, and said cautiously: "Sins and sins, disturbing Master Zonghai's cultivation late at night, is not what I want, but I do have an important matter in Xia, I need to tell Master Zonghai in person, and I hope Master Zonghai will understand." ”

Zong Hai's face remained unchanged, and he didn't ask the other party what he wanted to say, but said: "Every festival, Lord Lin will give a huge amount of money, these merits, Qinglong Temple is written down one by one, if the late night visit is to talk about Buddhism, then my senior brother Zongzheng will be very happy." ”

The man hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Buddhism is supreme, I haven't purified my body today, let alone burned incense, and if I talk about it rashly, I will defile the scriptures, so I won't bother Master Zongzheng." ”

Zong Hai shook his head and said: "Buddhism is vast, endless, but there is no threshold, ordinary people can read it, and emperors and generals can also read it, even if they just chant a sentence of 'Amitabha Buddha' from time to time, but the heart is good, that is, merit, and the heart is clean, why do you need to change clothes?"

The man sneered: "Yes, what Master Zonghai said is, yes, it's for my sake." ”

Zong Hai said again: "Lord Lin Shi, have you ever been in contact with some, well, strange outsiders these days?"

As soon as the man heard this, he almost subconsciously thought of the one in the tavern who had a pair of peach blossom eyes, willow eyebrows, obviously beautiful skin, crazy and crazy, and bold enough to fight the idea of Chang'an Wudu, and also successfully said that he was a young man.

But he didn't mention the other party after all, but shook his head firmly, and said categorically: "Absolutely not!"

Zong Hai frowned slightly, but didn't ask more, but said meaningfully: "Some demons appear in the world, mortals don't know their true body, often confused by their words, slowly deviate from the right path, and finally fall into the abyss, unable to extricate themselves, at that time, Lord Lin can remember, a sentence of "Amitabha", can save life. ”

In the winter, there was no charcoal in the house, but the man was sweating profusely with heat, and while wiping his sleeve in embarrassment, he nodded and said, "Remember, remember, thank you Master Zonghai for reminding me, I will pay attention." ”

Zong Hai finally stretched out his hand at this time, and said: "Okay, Master Lin Shi is a busy man, he came so late, and he named me Zong Hai, there must be something important, please ask Lord Lin Shi to talk about it!"
