Out of the Sanqing Palace, I saw Li Dayin greeting one by one on the side of the road outside: "Abbot Li, don't come unharmed...... Abbot Zheng, I'm going to have a drink with you in a while......"

Zhao Ran turned around, but Li Dayin behind him rushed over with a smile: "Oh, Abbot Zhao, six years ago, Yuanfu Palace said goodbye, and so far we have to get together and go over to the banquet together?"

Zhao Ran's awkwardness is not to mention, but there is a smile on his face: "Li Viceyin, I haven't seen you for many years, it's always been good? I still have some things here, I can only forgive my sins, let's meet again another day!"

Li Dayin laughed: "It's okay, then another day, Li will be the east!"

The four palms were warmly clasped together, shaking vigorously, and Zhao Ran nodded solemnly: "That's great, I will definitely go to the appointment then!"

Back to Jingyang Building, I looked at the lake view on the platform for a while, thinking that it was better to ask the nine girls, I couldn't figure out many things, maybe the nine girls had the answer here?

When he arrived at the south room, Zhao Ran knocked on the door: "Nine girls ......"

The door opened gently, and the nine girls sat on the chair, the white light above their heads lingering from time to time, and they were flying back and forth.

The ninth girl motioned for Zhao Ran to sit down and asked him to wait for a while, Zhao Ran waited patiently, and waited for a stick of incense before the ninth girl finished her work and said to Zhao Ran: "Ask whatever you want, if you can tell you, I will answer you, if you can't answer you, either I don't know, or I don't want to tell you, understand?"

Zhao Ran was angry when he heard this, what kind of attitude is this? Did you this girl suffer anyone's loss, and the fire had no place to vent, so it was vented on me?

Is it tolerable or unbearable, and immediately asked, "Are you hungry?"

The ninth girl was stunned: "I'm not hungry." ”

Zhao Ran got up: "After asking, say goodbye." ”

Walking in the mountains, Zhao Ran pondered who it was more appropriate to ask, the question he wanted to ask was too big, too high, and even the teacher Jiang Tenghe didn't know, so he could only ask a few true teachers he knew, but so Fei Fu asked these extremely high and even the most important questions of the Daomen, and it always felt inappropriate, or because his identity and realm were too low.

A flying talisman was sent to Lu Xixing: "Senior brother, are you okay lately?"

Lu Xixing replied: "I'm rushing to catch up with the chapters, and the readers are urging me to update." What's going on?"

Zhao Ran couldn't help but want to laugh a little, this senior brother was about to become a slave of words, and he didn't know if it would delay his cultivation, so he asked, "Is Xu Zhenren free lately?" ”

Lu Xixing said: "I heard that Zhiran is in the capital? Is it to participate in that Fa lecture hall? My ancestor will come back from Shandong in a few days, and he may stay in the capital for a day or two when he passes through the capital, if he is not in a hurry, Zhiran can meet with my teacher at that time, and I will tell my teacher when I go back." ”

This is really good news! There is a special place in the capital of Helin Pavilion, Xu Zhenren will go to live for two days every time he passes by Nanzhili, and Zhao Ran has also stayed there for a few days, helping Xu Zhenren to take care of a practice court, the place is still very familiar, just on the shore of Mochou Lake.

So Zhao Ran patiently waited for Xu Zhenren, and at the same time began to study in the Fa Hall.

Beginning on the second day of July, the Dharma Lecture Hall entered into a period of penance, and in front of the monks was a large pile of sutras handed down.

The abbot class of the palace and the first and second classes of the Taoist Academy listened to the lectures together, and the temporarily rebuilt scripture hall of the Jiming Temple was crowded. The tome "The Supreme Yellow Urn Lent Licheng Yi" is the main course, and the lecture is from the Sutra Hall of the Lower Guanjing Hall, a vulgar Taoist, who is said to be a descendant of Mr. Chongjing, the master of the Three Caves, and left a speech.

"I'm a layman with no talent for cultivation. The Lord of the Scriptures got straight to the point on the platform in front of him: "It stands to reason that I am not qualified to teach you, but the temple still sent me." I was very surprised at the time, and I asked Cheng Gaogong, and then asked Shanda Dushu, and they told me that although you are all my Taoist monks, most of them really don't understand the ritual of Zhaijiao, and they said that if you don't believe it, just ask and see if they can do it. ”

After a pause, the Lord of the Sutras held up the first volume of the Lent Ceremony in his hand: "So today I would like to ask you, is there anyone who can recite the Lent Ceremony in class? If so, you don't have to listen to my class. ”

More than 100 monks looked at each other, and no one answered for a long time.

Zhao Ran thought about it, he felt that he should be able to memorize it, he memorized it when he was in Wuji Academy fifteen years ago, maybe many years later, there will be individual sentences and words in some chapters with vague memory, but it should be able to meet the requirements of the scripture master.

It's just that he definitely won't recite it in front of the court like a stunned head, and he doesn't want to cut the face of this scripture master. Because he also agreed with the other party's judgment, which most monks could not recite.

When no one in the hall answered, the Lord said, "If anyone can memorize the first volume, he may not come to my class for the first seven days." ”

Still silent, the scripture master sighed: "The request I just made is a compulsory lesson for every Taoist priest in the Ten Directions Jungle Scripture Hall, without this ability, we can't be Taoists." As a layman with no qualifications, I sometimes wonder if the status quo of my Dao is reversed? Taoist priests who can't do the Fa are painstakingly studying Jiao and learning, while monks who are capable of practicing the Dharma are not interested in these things, and many of them have never even touched them......

With a sigh from the Lord of the Scriptures, the more than 100 monks in the hall also began to think deeply.

Suddenly, I heard the Lord of the Sutra raise his tone and said loudly: "But today I want to dare to say a sentence in front of all the immortal masters and abbots, although I can't cultivate immortals, but I know one thing, with the increase of cultivation, with the improvement of the realm, sooner or later you will understand one day, you used to look down on your eyes, and felt that the useless Zhai Jiao ritual is so important to the monks, without it, you not only can't stand the Gong, but even can't soar at all! When I ascended, others worried about it, so I just waited. But I'm going to tell you, if everybody is waiting for others to worry, then when it's your turn, you're really going to have nothing to!"

The Lord of the Scriptures paused for a moment, waited for everyone to reflect for a while, and then said: "In the twentieth year of Jiajing, when I was still a Taoist priest who had just come out of the Xuanyuan Guanjing Hall, I heard four words - do not forget the original intention, after hearing it at that time, I thought seriously for a long, long time. These four words were spoken by one of the abbots present at Ye Xueguan, and he loudly questioned all the Taoist priests who participated in the great council at that time, and he said, Have you forgotten the oath you made under the throne of the Three Qing Daoists?

Zhao Ran looked at the speech in the lecture hall with some surprise, and his favor instantly soared.
