Hong Yong, who received the task from the abbot of Chenghui, asked Fang Zhongjin, who had "slept" for the entire morning class, to recite the Diamond Sutra.

This is actually quite a risky move.

Although Hong Ji and Hong Du were on guard on both sides of Fang Zhongjin, he also heard Abbot Cheng Hui say that the Bodhi Twin Tree Stick Method is always the stick method in Buddhism.

This set of stick methods emphasizes tripping, catching, intercepting, and blocking, but they are all used to trap the enemy.

Even if you face an enemy whose kung fu is much higher than your own, if you form a Bodhi Thousand Tree Formation, you will not be able to get in and out of the opponent.

It's just that this stick method doesn't pay attention to killing the enemy. And when the enemy breaks out and hurts people, the Bodhi Twin Stick Method is mostly useless.

Therefore, Hong Yong made a plan to die for a lifetime, so he came to the Jingsi Hall to do morning classes.

And his task is also very simple: to arouse Fang Zhongjin Shangxia's aggressive, irritable and untamable temper.

But Hong Yong never expected that the first question he came up with failed to provoke Fang Zhongjin.

What he didn't expect was that he could chant the Diamond Sutra in Sanskrit in a subdued voice!

That's pretty weird.

The young novice in the main hall couldn't understand what the "big devil" was reading strangely, so he couldn't help but whisper to the senior brother next to him: "He can't recite a spell?"

And the senior brother came back to his senses from his astonishment, and said with an incredulous expression: "You can't talk nonsense, he doesn't recite a spell." I think it should be the Sanskrit of the Mahuni Sutra. ”

Seeing that the little novice was puzzled, the senior brother added: "You have only been here for a long time, and the uncles are afraid that you will not be able to understand the meaning of the scriptures, so they only ask you to recite the Diamond Sutra translated into Chinese."

However, this demon and the benefactor recited the Great Diamond Sutra in Sanskrit. I heard my uncle chant a few times, and I won't admit it!"

Speaking of this, Senior Brother couldn't help but show an expression of amazement on his face.

People in the world like to say: the world's martial arts come out of Shaolin.

In fact, in the Shaolin Temple, more than 1,000 monks do not regard this martial arts as heavy.

Instead, it is those masters who are proficient in the Dharma who are highly respected in the temple.

Among the young disciples, if they can read and recite Buddhist scriptures by heart, and even answer questions correctly when their teachers and uncles test the teachings, then it is the most enviable.

Some of the younger disciples who can recite Sanskrit scriptures are even the best among their peers.

Even the masters and uncles value it more.

In the final analysis, Shaolin Temple is a thousand-year-old temple. The people sitting in the temple are always monks rather than warriors.

Fang Zhongjin is young, although his martial arts are already high enough to "bloody martial arts", he still has to be monitored by two uncles on the left and right.

But no matter how much ability he has in the martial arts, he can only make these novices feel afraid, but not admire in their hearts.

It wasn't until Fang Zhongjin suddenly recited the Sanskrit version of the "Diamond Sutra" in front of everyone's eyes that these novices opened their hearts for the first time and looked directly at Fang Zhongjin, a young man.

He was only in his early twenties, about the same age as the older of their generation.

And this person is not like them who are immersed in Buddhist scriptures all day long~, but a person who practices martial arts.

This Fang Benefactor was able to recite Sanskrit, but many of them, the serious monks, could not do this.

Most of these Shaolin monks are simple in temperament, and they are influenced by Buddhism every day. Seeing this young man who was much stronger than them, not many people felt jealous and resentful.

It's just that the fear and disgust of Fang Zhongjin before involuntarily loosened a lot.

Everyone looked at Fang Zhongjin's eyes, and they were no longer like looking at tigers and evil ghosts as before.

The little novice from before reluctantly asked his senior brother again: "Then he has memorized so much, is it not wrong?"

When the senior brother heard this, his face turned red. He had only heard the master recite it once or twice, and he was more familiar with the first few sentences, but how could he remember a single word for word in such a long string at the end?

It's just that the monks don't speak, and the senior brother scratches his ear and says, "I don't know." Uncle Hong Yong must know.

It's not bad, Uncle Shi has his own conclusion, you just have to wait. ”

The little novice nodded and didn't ask any more. His bright eyes repeatedly circled on the faces of Fang Zhongjin and Uncle Hong Yong.

It seemed that he wanted to judge from the expression of the flood whether the Fang donor had really memorized correctly.

And Hong Yong is a master who has participated in meditation all his life. His meditation cultivation was quite profound, but now he was forced to sweat by Fang Zhongjin's slow and smooth recitation.

Hong Yong is proficient in Buddhism, so naturally he was not surprised because Fang Zhongjin could memorize Sanskrit scriptures.

What made him entangled in his heart was the entrustment of the abbot of Chenghui.

The abbot of Chenghui once warned Hong Yong repeatedly: Fang Zhongjin is a fierce star who has been demonic, and if he can correct him on the spot, it can be regarded as a merit.

But at this time, Hong Yong observed the young man, but he became more and more suspicious of Cheng Hui's warning.

Fang Zhongjin has starry eyebrows, sits upright, and his voice is soft without a trace of turbidity.

Such a person doesn't look like a demonic evil star in any way.

Hong Yong would never doubt the conclusion of the abbot of Chenghui.

But the facts in front of him constantly negate what the abbot said.

What's more, Fang Zhongjin can really recite the Sanskrit Diamond Sutra so smoothly, which shows that he has also been living under the influence of Buddhism.

In any case, Hong Yong did not want to believe that a person who was inspired by the Dharma every day could be a heinous murderer.

When they become monks, they will always have a benevolent heart after chanting Buddha and fasting for a long time.

Thinking that they Shaolin wanted to provoke the demonic nature in the hearts of this young man, and then the righteous Fa, Hong Yong was inevitably reluctant in his heart.

He even had some doubts about whether what the abbot of Cheng Hui was doing was the right path of Buddhism?

Of course, this thought was immediately extinguished by the flood when it came together.

Master Chenghui's prestige in the Shaolin Temple is unparalleled. The monks of Shaolin Temple respect the Buddha the most, and the second respect is Chenghui.

Whether he is virtuous, righteous or martial arts, he is the first person in the Shaolin Temple in decades.

Not to mention that he can only do it alone, and at the same time do all three to the extreme, that is definitely a person with great wisdom.

Hong Yong forcibly suppressed the contradiction in his heart, made a serious expression and said to Fang Zhongjin, who had finished reciting: "The translation of the Diamond Sutra that Lao Wei asked you to recite, but you have memorized all of them wrong. ”

As soon as these words came out, hundreds of novices whispered.

They only had a hint of admiration and appreciation for Fang Zhongjin, but they heard Hong Yong, who had always been highly respected, insist that he had all the wrong backs.

The so-called injustice is loud, and the sentence of the flood suddenly attracted a continuous whispering in the meditation hall.

Hong Yong cleared his throat and continued: "Since you are not ignorant of the Diamond Sutra, let me ask you: The Buddha advises people how to make their minds as calm as water and free from troubles?"

Fang Zhongjin heard this question, he still sat cross-legged, with a faint smile on his face, and said: "All things in the world, there are oviparous, viviparous, moisture-born, incarnated, thinking, and non-thinking, the Buddha has let them enter the realm of the unity of mind and matter, and liberate life and death. ”

In fact, Fang Zhongjin studied Confucianism when he was young, and had an attitude of respecting ghosts and gods. But his mother embraced Buddhism in her later years.

Fang Zhongjin is a filial son, so he often recites scriptures for his mother.

Before learning martial arts, Fang Zhongjin already had the talent of the champion, and he recited the Buddhist scriptures several times, and there was no truth that he couldn't memorize.

As for the various explanations and metaphors in the Buddhist scriptures, he is also somewhat familiar.

Therefore, Hong Yong's question to him did not solve Fang Zhongjin.

It's just that Fang Zhongjin slowly read out this passage by himself, but his heart suddenly moved.

He knew this interpretation of the Diamond Sutra in the past. Now that he recited it, it was as if he had entered the Dao spiritual light in his heart.
