Chapter 186: Master and Apprentice
Cao Benshan didn't say it directly, but his lips moved, and he used the method of transmitting sound into the secret, Yu Sheng was surprised after hearing it, and lowered his eyes and arched his hand and said: "If it's just like this, Yu will naturally go all out!"
After a while, it was still the golden hall, this hall was located in the middle of the entire Caodong Sect, and it was also the highest place, and as far as the eye could see, there was only one solitary place.
Cao Ben stood in front of the hall, bowed to the Buddha statues on both sides, Cao Dong spread Mahayana Buddhism, it is not strange that there are Buddha statues everywhere, after all, the so-called "Mahayana" has a hierarchical taste, before the Mahayana Buddhism appeared, Hinayana Buddhism did not practice, and there were not many Buddha statues and faith worship.
It is worth mentioning that Zen Buddhism especially respects the Buddha, they are more like Buddha-oriented, or "God-oriented", while the Taoist Gate also asks for immortals, but it is people-oriented, just as Yu Sheng said before: "This life does not cross to this?
The Buddha talks about the afterlife and the Tao seeks this life, which is the essential difference, so even if the Caodong Sect is one of the five major sects, it has a faint tendency to be isolated, and its status is only higher than that of the Zao Forget Sect.
Cao Benshan is obviously a qualified monk, and the monk does not worship the Buddha when he sees it, as if he does not have a bowl and chopsticks when he eats, which has become a habit that melts into his blood.
"Since you're here, come in!"
At this moment, a gentle voice came from the hall, it had been less than two hours since Cao Benshan left, but the old monk's voice did not appear impatient.
Cao Benshan did not have the slightest accident, insisted on bowing to the Buddha statues on both sides, and then raised his legs and walked into the threshold......
The old monk looked directly at Cao Ben Lin in front of him, his eyes were much wider than before, but his rickety body was even more rickety, and Ben Lin found that the master was actually thinner than the last time they met, and he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Ben Shan, your heart is in turmoil......" The old monk's voice was slightly hoarse at this time, but his eyes were unusually shining.
Cao Benshan asked with some surprise, "How does Master know?"
The old monk smiled and said: "Every time you pass the Buddha beads, you pass them one by one, and at that moment just now, you passed two." ”
Cao Ben was silent suddenly, and then heard the old monk say: "But you have no worries, it seems that in just two hours, you have untied the knot in your heart!"
While the old monk was speaking, he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the blood fell black on the ground, Cao Benshan was shocked when he saw this: "Master, ...... you?!"
"Hehe, don't you want to know the answer?" the old monk's smile became more and more weird.
"What's the answer?" Cao Ben asked subconsciously, and at the same time took a step back without missing a trace.
The old monk's eyes were like torches, and the flames in his eyes burned more and more, as if he wanted to burn off his eyebrows: "The foundation of the survival of my Caodong Sect and the hope of carrying it forward are all in the old man!"
The old monk almost gritted his teeth and said these four words, and before the words fell, he saw the Buddha light flickering around him, and a row of bells next to the main hall suddenly burst into Sanskrit sounds, and countless tadpole-like words emerged from his body, compiled into a large net to cover it.
"Master...... Don't!" Cao Ben was full of mixed feelings, how could he have the slightest indifference in his previous leisure? He wanted to break the big net, but his means couldn't shake the golden net in the slightest.
"Ben Lone! People who don't have a heart can't live in this world! You are no longer suitable to be the abbot of the Caodong Sect!" the old monk said unhurriedly, the golden light on his body became more and more dazzling, as if a golden Buddha was sitting cross-legged, and his stretched neck seemed to look down on all beings.
When Cao Ben heard this, his emotions gradually calmed down, and he sighed: "Master really wants to bring so many people to accompany the funeral?"
"Funeral, woman's opinion! They will only live in another way!" The old man wanted to wait a little longer, but the arrival of the boy at the foot of the mountain disrupted the old man's plans...... "The old monk said strangely.
"So you already knew......" Cao Ben lowered his head and fell silent.
"Hehe, a fly broke into the mountain protection array, how could I not know? It's you, where did you hide that person? If you hand it over now, the old man may be able to do this kind of thing later!" the old monk's tone was no longer mixed with any emotion.
"Hey~ You really fell into the magic ......" Cao Ben sighed, his gaze became firm and powerful.
The old monk was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "Ben Lone! Do you know how much of a joke you have told? Do you really think that the Caodong Sect is a Buddhist sect?"
"Otherwise?!" Cao Benlin sandwiched the Buddha beads between his thumb and index finger, his gaze resolute, not affected by the other party's words in the slightest.
The old monk was indeed stunned, and sighed in admiration: "Sure enough, we are a genius that we have never met in ten thousand years, if we kill you, the old monk is really a little reluctant......"
Cao Ben recited a Buddha name in silence and said bitterly: "If the master gives me the token, the disciple can treat it as if nothing has happened, and he will stay by your old man's side for the rest of his life......"
"Token, what token?!" The old monk suddenly squinted his eyes, and Cao Ben made a pun, and immediately broke through: "The token of Luo Tian Dajiao and the token of the true demon!"
When the old monk heard this, the corners of his dry mouth suddenly turned upward, and he shook his head and said, "I see...... The boy came to get a token...... Those bull noses finally can't hold their breath, but this also means that they are desperate......"
After the old monk finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head and stared at Cao Benlian, and said sternly: "Compared to this, what the teacher didn't expect was that you actually knew the true demon token, and it seems that you are not as simple as you seem......"
"The disciple is doing this for the sake of the master!" Cao Ben Lin also emitted a golden light, different from the old monk, the golden light on his body was more like a golden flame, not only solemn, but also a killing aura.
"Karmic fire?!Do you want to use what the teacher taught you to deal with the teacher?" Although the old monk said this, his eyes were a little jealous, as if he was very afraid of this golden flame.
"Master said that everyone's karmic debts are different, and their karmic fire is also different, although you taught it, it may not be your opponent!" Cao Ben said intently.
When the old monk heard this, the golden light on his body converged a little: "I underestimate you as a teacher......"
At this moment, the aura on the old monk's body changed suddenly, and the aura suddenly climbed to the top, and the palm bathed in golden light stretched upward, and countless tadpole-like words burst up, passing through the golden dome of the main hall, straight into the sky.
The mist in the sky suddenly disappeared, revealing the huge golden Buddha on top of the Caodong Sect, and the entire Caodong Sect suddenly fell into a panic.
