It is said that when the Buddha first entered the territory of the human country, it attracted the dissatisfaction of the indigenous sects, and the Buddha persuaded the then monarch to build this altar, and debated the Dharma with other sects on the altar every day, and repeatedly argued that others were speechless, and the monarch at that time was deeply surprised, and asked why the Buddha was so knowledgeable, but the Buddha said that it was not that he was erudite, but that he had mastered the truth of the world, and thus became invincible.

Later, Buddhism took root and flourished in the human country, and the living space of other sects was greatly squeezed, and there were fewer and fewer pagan priests who could go up to the Dharma propagation altar and debate with the monks. "Tuoba Lie said eloquently, it seems to be unintentional, but in fact there is a heart, Shen Fei went down the mountain to preach and promote the Tao, and the Dharma altar is the best place.

Shen Fei looked ahead, and saw that the stone platform was mottled and mottled, leaving traces of time, and the two simple wooden houses were far away from each other at the highest point of the stone platform.

There is an essential difference between preaching and martial arts, preaching is to spread an idea, to make others recognize my sect, to believe in the teachings of my sect, which requires that the ideas you spread are attractive to the people of the country, and martial arts is simply suppressed by force, and the strong wins.

If it is just a martial fight, Shen Fei has no chance of winning, there are tens of millions of high-ranking monks in the human country, and the heroes of his generation may not be opponents, let alone the predecessors; In the face of their own challenges, the Buddha will not give up the battle of ideas and suppress it purely by force, and if they do so, they will show fear.

High up, like a natural danger, Shen Fei saw the grand occasion of two masters with profound legal meaning sitting at one end of the high platform and debating the truth of the world. The earth and rocks rise from the ground, towering into the sky, and the wooden platform is at the highest point, and the slightest mistake can fall into the abyss, and the mage sitting on it has to bear the double pressure of both psychology and body, and meet the eyes of thousands of spectators, and only the most profound people can win in the end.

"This is where I've always looked forward to it. Shen Fei couldn't help but touch the ancient high platform, and actually felt the warmth in the mottled stones, his heart sank, and he was about to take a closer look, but suddenly heard a voice coming from a high place: "The scriptures say: One Buddha is the same, one heart is one by one true Dharma realm." From the moment I believe in the Buddha, I will never have a second thought, and I will do anything just to gain the favor of the Buddha, to gain spiritual comfort, and to wash away the debts of my past life.

Therefore, it is very appropriate to compare my Buddhism to "one", the so-called one heart and one vehicle, one true Dharma realm, and belief in the true Buddha. ”

Suddenly hearing the human voice, Shen Fei was surprised, when he just walked over, he carefully observed this place, and found no trace of human beings, and the other party actually existed there silently, which showed that he was a master with strong stealth ability.

After a moment of shock, Shen Fei stabilized the panic in his heart, and did not rush to raise his head to look around for a figure, but showed a faint smile, and said unhurriedly: "The Tao Sutra has clouds: Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, and three to all things. If Buddhism is described as one, it is only the initial stage described in the Taoist scriptures, or it can be said that it is the most primitive state, the most barbaric state. As he spoke, he released Xian Gang, and after finding the trace of the other party, Shen Fei slowly raised his head and looked straight over.

The monk sat on the high platform on the west side, as if he was one with heaven and earth, and if he did not grasp his existence and try to look at his location, he would not be able to find him at all, he was like a floating cloud above the nine heavens, a piece of azure blue on the far side of the sky, as if it was one with heaven and earth.

This is very incredible, because Buddhism cultivates one's own body, closes oneself, tortures one's body, and attains ultimate enlightenment and liberation. This process has almost no communication with everything in the world, and the supernatural powers that are opened will not have the effect of reaching heaven and earth. It is the Taoist sect that can reach the heavens and the earth, and the Tao is natural, leading the general trend of the world to its own use, and when it reaches the ultimate height, it can be integrated with the heavens and the earth and become one.

A monk has achieved the ultimate of Taoism, which is undoubtedly a terrifying and strange thing.

Shen Fei looked at the monk, knowing that he was there, but he couldn't distinguish his appearance and couldn't remember his clothes, as if the other party was just a hazy gas, a faint smoke, a false illusion that did not exist, and a fantasy in his heart. He thought about it, and said to himself that he had been led into the dream realm by the trick of dreaming, but he could not distinguish between the real and the false, and he was helpless.

Listen to the monk said: "All things begin with one, the so-called beginning is the root, is the essence, is the closest to the truth of heaven and earth, one can give birth to two, give birth to three, give birth to the world, but the world must not return to one, can not return to the essence of the source." ”

Shen Fei shook his head and said: "The rolling east flow of the Yangtze River can have a reason for the river flowing backwards! Time flies, history is always moving forward, but there is a reason to retreat! Everything is always moving forward, and if it retreats, it is a historical regression, a mistake, and a disaster." One has become two, it should be replaced by two, should know how to advance and retreat and trade-offs, should understand one's own position. Just as chaos is the beginning of Taiyi, chaos is separated, the upper line is yang, and the lower line is yin, which is known as the two poles of yin and yang. The two poles have been formed, and only then do we have the vitality we have now, but is there a reason to go back to the origin, back to a dead silence?"

"Has the benefactor been to Chaos?"

"What if you've been, what's if you've not. ”

"If he hadn't really been there, how would the benefactor know that under the chaos was a dead and empty place. When the monk said this, Shen Fei's heart was like a lightning strike, and he suddenly remembered that Jiulong was imprisoned in the depths of chaos, although it was only a small piece of chaos that lived in his body, there were still fierce beasts as powerful as Jiulong, which showed that not all creatures in the chaos were incapable of living.

......The shock in his heart would not be revealed, Shen Fei quickly thought about countermeasures, he had already noticed that during the time of the conversation between the two, many pedestrians had stopped to watch.

The so-called Dharma propagation altar, every time it gives a dialectical lecture is a touchstone for competing for the level of the teachings, it will inevitably attract the attention of the people of the world.

Shen Fei came up with a countermeasure, and said at the moment: "At the beginning of chaos, fierce beasts were raging, and the people were struggling to make a living, until the two qi of yin and yang were stabilized and the Dao Sect came into being, this phenomenon was alleviated. It can be seen that chaos, that is, the so-called place where the first is brewing ferocity and tyranny, there will always be a day when the second will replace it. ”

"What is ferociousness, what is tyranny, is it ferocious and tyrannical to treat humans as food, don't you know that in the eyes of many domestic animals, humans are also tyrannical, and they are constantly killing their companions!"

"Oh, it doesn't look like it came from the hands of a Buddhist monk. ”

"The Buddha is faith, and I believe in oneness, so I escaped into the empty door. ”

"The current faith may not be an eternal faith, I, Shen Fei, are here to change your faith. ”

"Good, good, there is another interpretation of what the donor just said, would you like to listen to it?"

"I want to hear about it. ”

"Two come from one, and if one is evil, then two come from one, and must be evil, or even more evil, and if one is clean, then two come from one, and may be clean."

The donor should not reduce himself to two, because once one becomes two, then it must go back to the origin, always return to one, return to the beginning, in other words, two is under one anyway. ”

"Wrong, wrong, monk, you have mistaken the meaning of this Tao, the Buddha is not one, the Tao is not two, the Tao is one life two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things, that is, the ten thousand laws of nature, the endless cycle and growth, is constantly growing and full.

The Tao is constantly advancing, never resting on its laurels, and advancing with the times. ”

"Donor, you are very clever to avoid the topic of poor monks by opening another question. ”

"I didn't shy away from you, I just gave up going around and around the bush and went straight to the point, distorting that it was actually you who meant me. ”

"Good is good, good is good, it means that your heart, how can it be misinterpreted. ”

"It means my heart, and I express it in language, and language is biased, so you have seized the loopholes in language. ”

"So you think what the poor monk just said is wrong, you think that all beings are not equal? Do you think that chaos is evil? Do you think that human beings are not the same as fierce beasts in the eyes of pigs, horses, cattle and sheep? You think that human beings should be above all living beings, so what are you!"

"What do you mean!" Shen Fei suddenly became alert.

"If you think from a human perspective, you have to be human. ”

"You're insulting me?"

"Haven't you seen the scene of the village!"

"This ......" Shen Fei's heart was swept by a thunderbolt, and he was inexplicably frightened, and he tried to look at the other party again, peeking through the fog to see the other party's true face, and couldn't help but gasp: "Are you ...... Pure Soul Monk!"

"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is who you are and what you want! All calamities arise from delusions, religion does not produce delusions, it is people who give birth to delusions, it is your master. The so-called sea of bitterness is endless, turning back is the shore, and sometimes, it is too late to stop early. When the words fell, the faint figure turned into a bright light and burst out, dazzling everyone's eyes, and when the light dissipated, the scorching sun hung high in the sky, and there was no longer a figure on the altar.

"Is it a pure spirit monk, it's really a ghost. Nalan Ruoxue looked at Shen Fei with a sad expression on her face and said with comfort.

Shen Fei raised his head and wiped the sweat on his forehead: "I don't know if it's him, but it's certain that we have been targeted by the people of the Buddhist Sect." ”

"It's terrifying. Nalan Ruoxue shouted.

"It's scary, it's fun. Chu Xie was happy from the bottom of his heart, after all, there were too many opponents here who could play with him.

Tuoba Lie stepped forward and said, "Several, let's talk about important things when we go back to the house, there are many people here, and it is not a place to talk." His worries are not unreasonable, this is Chang'an, it is the imperial city, and you need to be careful in your words and deeds.

"Your Highness is right, let's hurry up. ”

......

"The premise of spreading the teachings and recruiting disciples is people, is he a human being as a remnant of the Rakshasa clan?" The monk's words aroused the distress in Shen Fei's heart, all the while, he was trying to forget the past hatred, put aside the grievances between the Rakshasa clan and humans, and put the task assigned by the master when he was about to descend the mountain in the first place.

But when he arrived in the imperial capital, he was about to challenge the Buddhas in the world, but he had to face the reality and face this past that he would never want to mention. Are you human? What is the Rakshasa Clan? Is it a monster? Is it a barbarian? What is it!

Judging from the treatment of the village, the ruling class of the human kingdom undoubtedly regards the Rakshasa clan as a monster, and even low-class livestock can be freely raised and claimed, but he himself does not think so, he thinks that he is a human being, a person who is no different from the mortals around him!

Shen Fei was very melancholy, Shen Fei was very depressed, there were more and more people who knew their secrets, he was really afraid that one day when his great cause of preaching was about to succeed, suddenly a person jumped out and announced to the whole world that he was not their kind at all, but the remnants of the Rakshasa clan, then all his efforts would be in vain.

He was a little confused, his eyes were rarely wandering, his mood was rarely uncertain, before coming here, Master Pude, the host of Chaoyin Temple, had revealed to him the truth that the Buddha had not sniped him so far, it was a terrible secret, according to this calculation, maybe it was not too late to go back to the mountain at this time, and it was a reason, and it would not cause the master's dissatisfaction. It is hard to imagine that one day, when the great cause of preaching is about to succeed, and when you have finally achieved something after all the hardships, you will suddenly be scarred and beaten back to its original form by someone in the know.

Shen Fei's rare confusion, rare contradictions, the identity of the Rakshasa clan has always been a sad past that he is reluctant to mention, Shen Fei is reluctant to mention the word Rakshasa, because once he mentions it, he will remember the collapse of the holy city under the dark night and the tragic death of the clansmen!

"Brother Shen Fei, are you okay. The sensitive Nalan Ruoxue sensed that something was wrong with him from the slight tremor of Shen Fei's body, and clenched his hand very intimately: "Brother Shen Fei, do you know why people like you so much!"

"Why?" Shen Fei didn't know what she was going to say.

"Because Brother Shen Fei, you live in the world for a goal and an end point, and you don't have a strong sense of gain and loss! I've been with you for a long time, and I feel that you are a positive person, a person who can never be defeated, and a person who can be relied on. Nalan Ruoxue hugged Shen Fei tightly with both hands, looked at the sky with a blurred gaze, as if recalling an unforgettable past, and said: "I still remember when you saved someone, when you appeared in that place like a god, knowing that the enemy was outnumbered, knowing that there was a huge difference in strength, and without hesitation, you saved people from the clutches of the hot sky, and even saved Shushan, achieving a good story."
