Chapter 399: Spreading the Law
The monkey was also clever, and when he saw Patriarch Subodhi, he immediately knelt on the ground, and his mouth was already called out by the master, and said, "Master! Master! Disciple Zhixin Pilgrimage Tribute!"
Jin Ye also thought for a moment and said, "Disciple to meet the ancestor." β
After Patriarch Su Bodhi asked Sun Wukong, he smiled and gave the monkey a name, which was Sun Wukong.
Then he asked Jin Ye again, "Do you have a name?"
Jin Ye said: "The disciple's surname is Jin, and his single name is a Ye character." After thinking about it, Jin Ye added: "The disciple has admired cultivation since he was a child, so he also gave himself the name of Xuanzhen Taoist. β
But it was Jin Ye who already had his own legal name when he was in the cultivation realm.
Patriarch Su Bodhi was silent for a moment and said, "My disciples have twelve characters, which are the twelve characters of Guang, Da, Zhi, Hui, True, Ru, Sex, Hai, Ying, Wu, Yuan, and Jue. If you want to enter my door, this ceremony cannot be abolished, and the name of the law should be called Wuzhen. β
Jin Ye also underestimated the importance that the ancients attached to the inheritance of master and apprentice, if it was something else, Patriarch Su Bodhi might just turn a blind eye, but this one involves inheritance, it will be sloppy.
Seeing that there was nothing to do, although Jin Ye complained about this Dharma name in his heart, he saluted again and said: "Disciple Wuzhen has seen the ancestor. β
Since then, Jin Ye and Sun Wukong have worshiped under the Patriarch Subodhi. When the two went to the door, they worshiped a group of brothers and sisters, walked between the corridors, knew the terrain, and arranged a dormitory.
The next morning, Jin Ye and Sun Wukong got up early to sweep the floor and hoe the garden, raise flowers and trees, find firewood to light the fire, carry water and transport pulp, and really experienced the life of an ordinary disciple.
It wasn't until noon that Patriarch Subodhi slowly ascended yesterday's stone platform and started preaching.
This Su Bodhi patriarch has learned all over the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism, speaking a Tao, speaking a Zen, the patriarch preaching, since it is extraordinary, the sky is falling, and the earth is full of golden lotus.
It's a pity that Sun Wukong's hairy monkey mentality, how can he learn this meditation exercise? I can't understand it left and right, but because I have just started, I also abide by the rules, sit honestly, dare not go beyond it, and try to remember the way that Patriarch Su Bodhi preached.
And Jin Ye on the side is different, with nearly 100,000 years of experience in several worlds, learning through the ancient and modern learning, science and technology, Buddhism, Tao, all know, but also has the understanding of the Great Dao in the world of covering the sky and the cultivation world, at this time listening to the sermon of the patriarch Su Bodhi, Jin Ye only felt that there were a lot of doubts in the past, and suddenly he was able to figure it out, and suddenly there was a feeling of enlightenment, that is, the soul was also light, and the early realm of the Golden Immortal, which had been untouched, was also growing at a terrifying speed, and it broke through to the middle stage of the Golden Immortal in an instant, and then the later stageγ
Of course, because Jin Ye's mana was still silent at this time, Jin Ye's cultivation had not yet broken through, and what had broken through was only his understanding of the Great Dao and his state of mind, but once Jin Ye's mana recovered, as long as he meditated for a day, his cultivation would also be able to make a breakthrough and improve.
After six or seven years in the cave, Jin Ye began to activate the mana of the past little by little while cultivating, and now he can also mobilize the mana of the Heavenly Immortal Realm at will.
Sun Wukong is not bad, although he has not practiced the secret method of the ancestor for the time being, but Jin Ye can see at a glance that the spiritual power on Sun Wukong's body is stronger day by day, but now Sun Wukong will not invoke it.
On this day, the patriarch once again ascended the altar and sat down, summoned all the immortals, and opened the avenue.
Sun Wukong listened to it for a while, still felt unconscious, he was a little impatient, dancing with his hands, scratching his ears and scratching his cheeks and couldn't sit still, the patriarch saw it, and asked Sun Wukong: "You are in the class, why do you dance wildly and don't listen to me?"
Wukong flattered: "The disciple listened sincerely, and when he heard the wonderful voice of the master, he was overjoyed, so he didn't feel that he was so enthusiastic." I hope Master forgives your sins!"
The patriarch said, "Now that you know the wonderful sound, let me ask you, how long have you been in the cave?"
Wukong said: "The disciple was originally ignorant, and I don't know how many seasons there are. I only remember that the peach tree behind the mountain has ripened seven times. β
The patriarch said, "In this way, you have been in the cave for seven years. What will you learn from me now?"
Wukong said: "But with the teachings of the ancestors, there is just some Taoism, and the disciples will learn." β
So the patriarch asked Sun Wukong if he wanted to learn the kung fu in the words "art", "stillness", "flow" and "movement".
Sun Wukong thought that these kung fu could not live forever, so he vetoed all of them, and he was unwilling to learn any of them.
Patriarch Su Bodhi was furious, and with a loud voice, he jumped off the high platform, held the ring ruler, and designated Wukong to say: "You monkey, you don't learn like this, you don't learn like that, but what are you going to do?"
Jin Ye saw it, and knew that Su Bodhi was preparing to teach Sun Wukong the method, and his heart was also anxious, and he hurriedly went out to persuade Su Bodhi Patriarch: "The ancestor is angry, Wukong is like this, I and Sun Wukong entered from the bottom of the mountain together, I only want to seek an immortality technique, avoid the disaster of Hades, Wukong saw that he couldn't get the art of immortality for a while, and he was anxious to offend the patriarch, and I hope that the patriarch will not blame Wukong, if the patriarch still has fire in his heart, the disciple will be punished and will never dare to complain." β
"You're angry with me too!" Patriarch Su Bodhi seemed to be angry, and glared at Jin Ye fiercely. stepped forward, raised the ring ruler and hit Wukong on the head three times, and then hit Jin Ye's head again, turned his hands behind his back, walked inside, closed the middle door, and left the crowd behind, as if Jin Ye and Sun Wukong didn't want to preach.
Su Bodhi's actions frightened everyone in the group who listened to the lecture, and they all thought that the patriarch was angry and didn't want to preach anymore, complaining about Wukong and Jin Ye: "You two are really very formless! Master preached your Taoism, why didn't you learn it, but you talked back to Master? This time it collided with him, I don't know when it will come out!"
At this time, Jin Ye and Wukong, who were complained, despised and disgusted by everyone, were not annoyed at all, and the two glanced at each other, both with smiles on their faces.
It turned out that Jin Ye and Wukong had already broken the mystery on the plate, knew the meaning of Patriarch Su Bodhi, and secretly knew it, so they didn't compete with everyone, but just endured and were silent.
The patriarch beat him a few times, that is, Jin Ye and Wukong were looking for him at the third watch, and he walked inside with his hands behind his back, and closed the middle door, which was to teach Wukong and Jin Ye to progress from the back door and teach him the Tao in secret.
