Chapter 53 highlights the view of the scriptures and the group of books, half practicing martial arts and half participating in Zen

On the night of entering the temple, after seeing the abbot of Sanneng and the courtyard of Sansi, the old man sat opposite the Arhat of Sanjie, and there were two cups of fragrant tea on the low table in front of him. Liu Yun and the three of them stood respectfully behind the puppet.

"Eat tea. The three-ring Arhat simply said two words. The puppet took a sip of the teacup, but did not speak, and the two looked at each other, both with serious faces. It seems that these three precepts Arhat and Pifu are the same kind of people, they don't smile, they don't be polite, no wonder they can become close friends, they haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, and they don't even say three words when they meet. The two old men stared at the incense stick with wide eyes, and did not speak for a while. Liu Yun and the others felt embarrassed, and said in their hearts that the two old men were both men who liked male style, and they had an unspeakable past when they were young, otherwise how could there be old friends meeting like this.

"Sanjie, you see these three children, they are all martial arts wizards, I brought them here in the hope that Gaoliang Temple can give them guidance on martial arts. Puff was the first to break the silence.

Sanxiao walked to the side of Sanjie, bowed down and said, "Juniors meet Master Sanjie." ”

The three-ring arhat turned his head to look at the three small ones, and looked carefully one by one. Seeing that this woman's eyes were white, but how could she hide the insight of Sanjie, she could see at a glance that she was born with false eyelids, and her eyesight was far better than ordinary people, and she was a rare genius for thousands of years. This young man with a sword on his back is full of heroism, no matter how he hides it, he can't hold it down, and he must be a person who adheres to the luck. And this shortest child, looks different from ordinary people, but I can't see how different he is, but Sansi told Sanjie that after they entered the temple gate, they stepped on a pebble while walking, and the most inconspicuous negative hammer boy unconsciously stepped on the pebble.

"Okay, these three children are not ordinary people, where did you find such a talented three?" Sanjie looked at it and asked the horseman.

"Alas, at first, I was deceived by the old fool, and promised him to take care of these three children, but after a long time, I developed feelings for them, as if I were my own apprentice. ”

Liu Yun, Wentian and Xing Yu have long regarded this uncle as a master and a relative in their hearts, and they treat them as their own, how could they not feel it.

Pifu continued: "This girl is a disciple of the Great Dark Flower Snake Hades King, named Xing Yu. This kid with the sword on his back is a descendant of Suzaku named Ma Wentian. The youngest is an apprentice named Liu Yun. ”

"Oh, when the Rat King appeared on the front line, it is said that he had an apprentice named Liu Yun with him, and at that time he started with the Rakshasa gun, and there were rumors on the rivers and lakes, but after that, the Rat King disappeared again, and all the major factions were looking for him, and he actually handed over the apprentice to you. "The Three Precepts.

"Yes, he left it alone, and lied to me that he promised him to bring up these three children, and he was fooled at that time. When I saw him later, I really wanted to beat him up. ”

"Can you beat him now?" asked Sanjie.

"Will you help?"

Sanjie thought about it seriously for a while. "No, I don't. ”

The puppet drank the tea in one go, and when he reached this realm, he was no longer afraid of boiling water. Hearing his friend say that he didn't help him in the fight, and he couldn't beat the rat king himself, he stopped talking, just lowered his head and sulked, which was quite cute.

In the early morning of the second day, under the instruction of the three precept arhats, the three elementary schools came to the practice ground of Gaoliang Temple, and saw more than 100 monks practicing in three batches, and between each two batches, the difference in the strength of kung fu could be seen. Thinking about the three precepts and looking at the breath of these three children, they will be the best in the second batch, and they will be at the bottom in the third batch. However, all three of them were not idle, so they told them to go to the most powerful ones.

As a result, three energetic children and dozens of white-bearded monks performed martial arts every day. When the monks practice, they practice, when the monks chant sutras, they read books in the scripture building, when the monks sleep, they continue to practice, and when the monks are about to get up, they sleep for a while. In this way, a month has passed, and the three small kung fu have grown a little, but it is not obvious, but I have read a lot of martial arts books, and my vision has grown a lot. Listening to the chanting of the monks every day, the subtle mind precipitates a little, regardless of the world, and the mood gradually becomes clear.

After a long time, the monks in the temple are also familiar with each other, the monks of Gaoliang Temple have a simple personality, except for the three thoughts of the courtyard, each of them can not fight back, scold not to return the mouth, will only return the smile, whether it is joking with him or talking seriously, they will do what you say. Ma Wentian and Liu Yun didn't dare to joke with them, but they respected them in their hearts. I was really bored, so I went to talk to the monk Sansi, the old man didn't look at the usual never down the mountain, but he could talk about the life of the market, which was endless, colorful.

When they had nothing to rest, the three of them always enjoyed quietly looking at the ancient cypress, which was said to be 3,000 years old. A few times when there was no one at night, they flew up to the top of the ancient cypress, watched the lights under the mountain, and had an unobstructed view of the surrounding area of Gaoliang Mountain.

Gradually, the three of them read longer and longer, and the time to practice martial arts is getting shorter and shorter, often several people enter the state of emptiness in the sound of the scriptures, and their own figures can appear in their minds at the same time, practicing the different routines and martial arts in the book, the moves are exquisite, the thinking is clear, and the flaws in reality can be found when the air is bright, and they will repeatedly practice, integrate, and break through different moves. This seems to be the epiphany in Buddhism.

One evening, the monk called the three of them to the door of the wing room, saying that there was a treasure in the room, but only women could see it. So let Xiaoyu enter the room, and after thinking twice, he asked Tian and Liu Yun about it, but he didn't let them in. Of course, Sansi Zhangyuan is also a joker, and is now teasing the two boys. Seeing them scratching their ears and cheeks anxiously, they couldn't close their mouths when they thought about it. They have to figure it out on their own, but they must not break in.

Seeing that Xiaoyu had been in the house for a while and hadn't come out yet, the two of them wanted to see what kind of treasure was inside. In a hurry, Liu Yun said: "My nickname is a woman." So he slipped into it. The monk hadn't agreed yet, and he also asked, "My nickname is Woman." "It's hard to get in, too. Master Sansi's skills can't catch them at all.

After the two entered the house, they found Xiaoyu sitting upright on the futon in front of the Buddha and holding a copy of the "Faqing Sutra". This book was originally in the most superficial place in the scripture building, it was a pure heart scripture book, and the three of them skipped this book when they went to read the book every day, and went straight to the martial arts book, never thinking of reading this book.

Today, I found that the treasure mentioned by the Sansi Zhangyuan turned out to be this "Faqing Sutra", coupled with the recent experience of the three of them entering the realm of emptiness, the two had an epiphany, it turned out that they were indeed cultivating their minds and not keeping up with their self-cultivation, so they stayed for a long time in the realm of things and could not get closer.

Sansi approached the wing, saw Sanxiao's thoughtful state, and nodded with satisfaction. Ask the trio if they think the book is a treasure for them.

Xiao Yu, who had his back to the door, said, "Thank you, Master, for your guidance." ”

As soon as the hoarse old voice came out, the monk was startled, his hands were in front of him, he put on a nondescript defensive posture, and asked, "Who is it?"

Sanxiao was funny and helpless, it turned out that Xiaoyu had almost never spoken in front of outsiders after entering the temple, Sansi originally thought that Xiaoyu was dumb, but today he suddenly heard her make such a strange sound, he was really startled, staring at Xiaoyu with a pair of eyes, and after a while, he himself laughed awkwardly.

"If the three of you find it useful, copy it yourselves and bring it back, with a blank book and pen and ink beside it. Three or four said.

So, this night, the three of them carefully copied a copy of the "Fa Qing Sutra", until dawn in the morning, when the morning bell rang, the three of them completed, feel that the progress of this night, I don't know how long it takes to exercise the effect of the body can be compared, maybe it is only a physical exercise can not get over a hurdle for a lifetime.

At breakfast, Liu Yun saw Ma Wentian's sad face, so he asked him what was wrong, Ma Wentian said that yesterday he said that his nickname was Woman, and he must have promoted it to him when he thought about the mouth of the courtyard. Liu Yun said that it was okay, and he also said that his nickname was a woman. Wentian explained, in the future, we will all be heroes, no one will say the nickname of the hero, but everyone mentions the nickname, you are like the Fulong swordsman Li Haoyuan, no one calls him Yuanyuan, chasing the soul for thousands of miles Xia Yunhai, who dares to call Xiaohai. Liu Yun said that it was right, so in the whispering of the two, they finally made up their minds, and the two went down the mountain to buy four catties of tea eggs, bribed Sansi to take charge of the courtyard, and begged him to keep people.
