Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan looked at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes.
The two never thought that the abbot of the dignified Buddhist Gate, who was comparable to the head of the Taoist sect, and the abbot of the Buddhist Gate, who was supposed to sit on the Qibao Lotus Platform, would appear in front of their husband and wife at this time and in this capacity.
Qiu Yue, who seemed to see the shock of Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan, smiled and said, "Since Sect Master Xu and Her Royal Highness the Princess can come to our Buddhist ancestral garden in an ordinary posture of casual cultivation and rush to the Bon Festival Festival on July 15, why can't the poor monk come to see the two benefactors as a monk who knows the guest? The Buddha never said that the abbot presided over the abbot and could not be a monk who knew the guest. โ
Xiao Zhinan said: "The Zen master's words are wrong, my husband and wife are not deliberately deceiving their identities, they just want to take a look at the scenery along the way, if they show their identities, they will inevitably cause some unnecessary trouble." But the Zen master is different, this place is a pure land of Buddhism, and the Zen master is the master of this place, and he is the predecessor of the two of us. โ
Qiu Yue said with a smile: "Her Royal Highness the princess is pertinent in what she said, but if the poor monk does not act like this, but meets the two donors again at the Obon Festival, then you can only see the etiquette of the two donors, but you can't see the true temperament of the two donors." โ
Xu Beiyou said: "Just a few words, the Zen master can see the true temperament of my husband and wife?"
Qiu Yue smiled slightly and said: "If the poor monk has seen through the temperament of the two benefactors, it is self-indulgent and nonsense, but it can also be seen in the tube. โ
Then he looked at Xiao Zhinan and said: "The poor monk has not been in the world for a long time, and he doesn't know much about the affairs of the world, and recently I have heard some gossip about Her Royal Highness the princess, which is quite biased and derogatory. โ
Xiao Zhinan smiled and shook his head and said: "The Zen master has won the award, and Zhinan is ashamed." โ
Qiu Yue smiled but did not speak.
At first, Xiao Zhinan asked him why he lied in the words of the Diamond Sutra, and he replied that he really had a hard time, Xiao Zhinan continued to ask him what his troubles were in the Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra, and his answer was that Buddhism did not want to participate in the general trend of the world at this time, and if he rashly participated, the disciples of Buddhism were afraid that they would be killed.
As for the last sentence, it was Xiao Zhinan who said a pair of words, which was quite sarcastic, and Qiu Yue also refuted it with verses, as the so-called Buddha in the heart, there are Buddhas everywhere, if there is no Buddha in the heart, how to go to the temple to worship the Buddha is in vain.
Although the Xiao woman has had a tradition of worshipping Buddha and worshipping Buddha since Lin Yinping, it is also amazing that Xiao Zhinan can have such Buddhist attainments at this age, only in terms of familiarity with Buddhist scriptures, even compared to Murong Xuan back then, it is not inferior, and even surpassed.
He had long heard that Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan, a young couple, worked hard and contributed alone. The hard-working one, who is in charge of the temple and commands hundreds of civil and military officials, is like the second female emperor. The laborer, one person and one sword, kills all over the world, like another great sword immortal. A man and a woman, one literary and one martial, are really a perfect match in the world.
When he saw it today, he knew that the rumors were true.
Qiu Yue opened her mouth and asked, "Can the two benefactors continue to enter the temple?" This place is still about two or three miles away from the Daxiong Treasure Hall. โ
Ordinary temple, after entering the mountain gate, pass a stone step, enter the temple gate, pass the front yard, pass through the front hall, so you come to the front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall. After Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan passed the mountain gate, they have walked more than ten miles, but there are still two or three miles away to reach the Daxiong Treasure Palace, which shows how majestic and magnificent the ancestral garden of Buddhism is.
Xiao Zhinan glanced at Xu Beiyou again, and replied: "There is Master Lao, but my husband and wife still want to go around the temple and see the holy land of Buddhism." โ
Qiu Yue seemed to have expected it, and said with a smile: "Previously, the poor monk heard the disciple come to report, saying that the sect master of the Sword Sect has arrived in the temple, and the poor monk rushed to see the two donors, and now the poor monk has seen the two donors, and he has got his wish, since he should not bother the two donors, please rest assured that the poor monks have been instructed to go down, in addition to the tallinn where the relics of the ancestors of the past dynasties are stored, the two donors can visit the temple at will, if the two donors are not disgusted, you can also go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to read the Buddhist scriptures of the temple, I think it will be beneficial." โ
Xu Beiyou thanked him and said, "The younger generation has thanked the Zen master for his kindness." โ
After the autumn moon was closed, it drifted away.
After only the husband and wife were left, the two sat back on the cobblestone under the shade of the tree, and Xu Beiyou asked, "Zhinan, in your opinion, what does this Buddhist abbot mean?"
Xiao Zhinan said softly: "Although Qiu Yue said that he didn't want to participate in the general trend of the world at this time, it can be seen that he is still obviously biased towards our side. In fact, the reason is very simple, today's Buddhism is already the second largest sect in the world, there is no need to join forces with the Daomen to fight against the strong enemy, its opponent is only one, that is, the Daomen that has been pressing on its head. Vice versa, after the Daomen truly dominates the world, the first person to deal with will not be the Sword Sect, but the Buddha Gate, because only the Buddha Gate is the opponent who can really threaten the hegemony of the Daomen, and the two families of Buddhism and Taoism will eventually have a battle. โ
Xu Beiyou nodded and said: "It seems that it is because of the previous Dragon King's matter, Qiu Yue feels that he is at a loss first, so he is so generous, and he deigned to come in person, and he opened the convenient door of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and he didn't say a word about the Dragon King who was imprisoned by me in the imperial capital, which can be said to be sincere." โ
Xiao Zhinan smiled, "Since people are so sincere, do you appreciate your face?"
Xu Beiyou laughed loudly: "Naturally, I can't live up to the kindness of my predecessors, and I want to go to the famous Buddhist Sect Scripture Pavilion." โ
While the two were talking, a gust of wind swept straight from the mountain gate, blowing the ancient trees behind the two of them to shake, and blowing the flags and tents in the temple to sway.
Xu Beiyou looked up, only to see that the sky was already covered with lead clouds at this time, and it turned out to be a late day when the sky was snowing.
Xiao Zhinan stood beside him and sighed in surprise, "This is ...... It's going to snow?"
Xu Beiyou nodded and said: "The sky is impermanent, this year is particularly evil, and the snow on the grassland in June is just that, after all, there has been a white disaster there for several consecutive years, but the same is true in the Northeast outside the Guan, the Mid-Autumn Festival has not yet passed, but it has already snowed heavily, I really can't see through what God is thinking." โ
Xiao Zhinan smiled and quipped: "If you know what God thinks, then aren't you a person who understands the mysteries of heaven? I'm afraid you don't want to ascend to the ground, preach immortality, and go to the heavens to be an immortal." โ
At this moment, pieces of fine snowflakes fell, falling on the bodies of the two people, on the trees, on the ground, and on the eaves of the temple, and quickly melted.
Xiao Zhinan looked down at the thin dress on his body and sighed, "I should have brought a fur here." โ
