Chapter 313: On Buddhism and the Tao

The hearts and minds of one thousand one hundred and eleven boys, this is really scary! The more Xuanzang thought about it, the more angry he became: "Even the king of Shang back then had never done such an unjustified thing in order to curry favor with the demon concubine Daji!" As he spoke, he remembered the monster mentioned by Ren Qinglian before he entered the city, and couldn't help but guess: "The monster that Ren Jushi said should not be the king's beautiful queen!"

Along the way, Xuanzang also learned a lot about the monsters, and knew that the monsters like to eat people are actually for the essence in the human body, and the most powerful essence is naturally the heart and liver.

Ren Qinglian opened her mouth and said in her heart: "This is really a blind cat who ran into a dead mouse, and he guessed it correctly! I don't know what the origin of the white-faced fox spirit is, whether it was killed by a monkey in vain, or if there are other calculations......

Thinking about it, a description in the original book flashed in his mind: Bajie put a dead fox in front of the deer and said, is this your daughter?

Judging from this reluctant situation, it seems that the white deer spirit and the white-faced fox spirit are not simply taking advantage of the relationship! Both demons have the word "white" in their names, could it be that they are good looks? As for dedicating their beloved to the king of the bhikshu country, this is a good explanation, after all, people are fox spirits, and some of them use spells to bewitch the king, and they will not really use any beauty tricks. Maybe the king fell into an illusion and just hugged the pillow, but the white deer and the white fox were hooking up on the side......

Thinking of the wonders, the corners of Ren Qinglian's mouth couldn't help but curl, there is really this possibility, after all, the fox spirit was beaten to death with a stick does not mean that the soul is destroyed, with the merit of Journey to the West, a good fetus in the future may not be worse than being a fox spirit!

The monkey had been observing Ren Qinglian's reaction, and when he saw the inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth, he suddenly had a creepy feeling: "Could it be that the fox spirit is very powerful......

However, Zhu Gang understood it, stepped forward and smiled: "Ren Jushi, that fox spirit is beautiful!"

Ren Qinglian straightened her mind, ignored Zhu Gangguan, coughed dryly, and said with admiration: "The mage's path is getting better, in a word, the beautiful queen is indeed a fox spirit." ”

The monkey glanced at Xuanzang, who had a somewhat smug look, and said calmly: "That Guozhang is also a monster!"

Now that she has guessed it all, Ren Qinglian didn't continue to hide it, nodded and said, "It's a white deer ......."

"Bailu?" the monkey didn't think much about it, "It's about the same as my grandson's guess!"

Ren Qinglian opened his mouth, almost how much worse, anyway, he didn't believe that the monkey just guessed that it was the white deer spirit, shook his head, and could see that although he had spoiled most of the content, the monkey still did not associate the white deer spirit who intended to eat people's hearts and livers with the smiling birthday star.

Xuanzang interrupted the discussion of the apprentices and said in a concluding manner: "Well, anyway, we always have to enter the palace tomorrow to exchange customs clearance documents with the king of this bhikshu country, and then we will meet that abbot by the way!"

The monkey was originally an acute child, but since Xuanzang had already said it, he did not object. However, this monkey is often a careful person, but when the monster heard the wind and grass, the dog jumped over the wall and killed the boys in the cage, so he drank out the little hairy gods who secretly protected Xuanzang, and told the gods to take the children to a safe place in the nearby mountains to protect them.

After doing this, the group borrowed a night at a nearby post station. There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, I went to the palace. This country of bhikshus is close to the Western Heaven Elysium, and the name of the country is bhikshu, which also shows the depth of his belief in Buddhism. Hearing about the arrival of Xuanzang and others, the king, who had always been confused, also cheered up a little and invited these devout disciples from Middle-earth to the main hall to exchange customs clearance documents.

"Your Majesty, the poor monk came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and he can be regarded as having a lot of knowledge, and these apprentices under his command are also cultivators, but no one has ever heard of what kind of immortal prescription requires the hearts and livers of 1,111 young children as a medicine guide, I heard that the Guozhang of our country has found this kind of immortal prescription, and they are all very curious, can you please ask Your Majesty to call the Guozhang over to exchange cultivation experience. "Naturally, Zhu Gangguan and others and the officials of the bhikshu country went to work on the matter of customs clearance, and Xuanzang exchanged a few words with the king, which went straight to the point.

It can be seen that Xuanzang, who successfully guessed the identity of the queen of beauty, seems to be a little self-confident, and rarely has a bit of manly spirit, and he wants to talk about Buddhism with the abbot of the country.

As the saying goes: Buddha is golden, people are clothes, the world has many shallow eyes, only skin, no bones. When the king saw Xuanzang dressed in a brocade robe and spoke with a full of anger, he naturally felt that this monk was really profound. If it was three years ago, he would even worship the other party as a national teacher and worship him respectfully, but in the past few years, he has seen the magic methods of the national abbot, and his original belief has been shaken a little, and he laughed and said: "The master is afraid that he will be humiliated now, my national abbot is unfathomable, and it has long been extraordinary, and it is not the same!"

The monkey snorted coldly and muttered in a low voice: "It's just a deer demon who can't make a climate!" The voice was very small, but Xuanzang on the side heard it clearly, signaled him not to act rashly, and said with some unconvincing: "That's not necessarily, the king just asked him to come out and theorize!"

Seeing that he insisted, the king of the bhikshu country shook his head noncommittally, and ordered the left and right to invite the abbot over, and after explaining, he smiled and said: "This master Xuanzang is a high monk from the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Soil, who is profound in Buddhism and proficient in medical techniques, and wants to ask you for advice." ”

That Guozhang looked like a fairy wind and bones, glanced at Xuanzang, and his eyes turned, but it fell on Ren Qinglian, a different color flashed in his eyes, and at the same time he didn't forget to nod and say hello.

Ren Qinglian was slightly surprised to see Xuanzang's face not changing and debating Buddhism and Taoism with that Guozhang, since the Journey to the West, this is probably the first and only time Xuanzang appeared in person, debating on behalf of Buddhism and Taoism.

Xuanzang's Buddhist cultivation is not to mention for the time being, at least in Ren Qinglian's view, he is a theoretical master, all of which are incomprehensible, and all of the Buddha's immortal sounds are incomprehensible.

However, at the beginning of the mouth cannon of these two people, Ren Qinglian was a little confused.

"Practicing gong and meditating is the origin of concentration, and giving kindness is the foundation of practice...... If the clouds pick yin and supplement yang, it is a fallacy, and if the bait lives long, it is really a false word......" This passage is Xuanzang's refutation of the country's abbot, bullying the original Ren Dagongzi is not learned and unskilled, but since Ren Qinglian crossed over, he has read all kinds of Taoist classics over the years, and even he clearly remembers the source of these words, this is in the Taoist Quanzhen Dan Sutra, which should have been a very good method of cultivating the true heart, but Xuanzang changed it randomly, but it was not very clever!

If Ren Qinglian remembers correctly, then the Taoist scriptures originally described it as follows: "Practicing gong and meditating is the madness of the Tao; giving favor and giving grace, that is, the deceit of virtue," was changed by Xuanzang to "practicing gong and meditating is the origin of concentration; giving kindness and benevolence, sincerity is the foundation of cultivation." Instead, it has fallen into the inferior position! Practicing gong and meditating is the origin of meditation? Fortunately, no one present seems to regard these arguments as a method of cultivation, otherwise they would have to practice to go crazy and fall into the devil.

According to Ren Qinglian's imagination, Xuanzang is obviously suspected of deliberately releasing water, but the performance of that Guozhang is even more strange, and he actually turns a blind eye to it, Ren Qinglian doesn't believe it, this product is from a teaching class, he will not read those Taoist scriptures, even if he doesn't find it, but at least he can hear that the other party is full of loopholes, but he just didn't break it, and he touted the Taoist magic for a long time, and he didn't refute Xuanzang.

Until the end of this cannon, Ren Qinglian didn't see who won and who lost these two, but it was the king of the bhikshu country who looked happy.

Leaving Ren Qinglian and the others inexplicable!
