Chapter 163: Amitabha, All Beings Are Equal

"Ahem, Master Zhiyuan, my master...... I guess it's not that far. Lu Yuan said awkwardly.

"Haha, don't be afraid, the old man is joking. Zhizheng has already told me a few of your conditions, yes, for friendship and righteousness, for Ziren and filial piety, the old Wuquan has knowledge, and he should be relieved. Zhixin looked at Lu Yuan kindly and said.

"Master Zhixin praised it falsely, the kid is just doing some duty. Lu Yuan smiled slightly.

"Your three conditions, I agreed on behalf of the Shaolin Temple. And, if the incident of Qiu Lao Wu is finally over, I will represent the Shaolin Temple and welcome his bones back and enshrine them in the ancestral land of Houshan. Zhixin said solemnly, his expression quite sincere.

"In this way, Lu Yuandai's late fifth brother thanked the abbot. Lu Yuan clasped his hands together and gave Zhixin a salute.

"Amitabha. Zhixin returned the salute, "The old man still has a matter to discuss with the donor, can the donor come close and listen to it?"

"Master, but it doesn't hurt to say. Lu Yuan was a little surprised, and said directly to Zhixin.

Zhixin heard the words and asked Lu Yuan to go over, Lu Yuan obeyed, but seeing Zhixin whispering a few words in Lu Yuan's ear, the more Lu Yuan listened to it, the more strange his expression became, and finally looked at Zhixin, and then looked at the main hall, smiled slightly, and said secretly in his heart, this is fun.

"Master rest assured, it is his blessing that such things have fallen on his head. Lu Yuan laughed and said, "I promised to come down for Naida, and the master will wait for my news." ”

"So, thank you. ”

"The master is gracious......"

......

In the next three days, people from the rivers and lakes who received information from their juniors came to Shaolin Temple, but they probably thought that they only needed to get the sword body pattern, and all the people sent by each sect were in charge of the daily affairs of the gang, but they were not very famous in the rivers and lakes.

These people come to Shaolin to watch the ceremony, naturally it is indispensable to give gifts, most of them bring rice, flour, grain and oil, a small number of generous sects, and will also attach some herbs or meteoric iron, finished weapons. Shaolin Temple also did not refuse, will list a long list of gifts, Lu Yuan estimated that the rice, flour, grain and oil alone is enough for the monks of Shaolin Temple to eat more than half a year.

Although the number of other weapons and herbs is not much, it is better to be precious, the finished weapons are well-made, although the meteorite is less, but it is a precious thing in itself, when creating weapons, ordinary craftsmen will never dare to waste at will, even a small piece can be used for a long time.

As for those who sent coral, jade, and real money, they were all returned by the Shaolin Temple. Generally, those who send these things are emerging sects that don't know much about the "rules", and the old rivers and lakes all know the temperament of Shaolin Temple, rice, flour, grain and oil, herbs and weapons, which are all needed things, except for a very small number of meteoric iron, the value is not too high, Shaolin Temple will accept it, and it will not affect their cultivation. Coral jade, real money and silver are different, these mundane things are not necessary for Shaolin Temple, and you send these, isn't it a proper intention to lure people to break the precepts?

Therefore, at this juncture, the essence between the sects that have seen the world and the emerging sects is revealed. Who understands the rules better, who is more able to give gifts, a discerning person can know at a glance.

Even so, the Shaolin Temple still treats everyone equally, and it is not rude to everyone. But after everyone sat down, Lu Yuan heard some interesting remarks.

"Eh, you see, I thought that the Shaolin Temple was very picky to the outside world, but I didn't expect them to be very picky about themselves?

"What do you know? People pay attention to 'color is emptiness, emptiness is color', so the courtyard wall should be painted this color, in order not to let the monks delay in the sound of dogs and horses. But you said that the Shaolin Temple is open to the outside world, I really believe it. "This one obviously knows a little about the Shaolin Temple.

"But isn't it? I've been in the beginner's school for more than ten years, and every time the head of the family has a birthday, I send invitations to the Shaolin Temple, but the Shaolin Temple rarely sends people to come, and if there are three or two monks who bring a gift. There were few people coming, and there was nothing in the first place, but do you know what the gifts are given?"

"What did you receive?" asked the second steward.

"In the past ten years, we have received the manuscripts of the Diamond Sutra, the Heart Sutra, the Lotus Sutra, the Enlightenment Prayer Bead, etc., one per year, and I wondered, you sent these things to us to become monks?"

"Hahaha, same question, same question! We have received many similar gifts. ”

"What do you know? People pay attention to Zen meditation and enlightenment, and send you Buddhist scriptures in order to pass on your supreme Taoism, and give you rosary beads to make you pure and have few desires, and think twice before acting. For the Shaolin Temple, these things are precious. The second spoke again, but the words were obviously more ironic.

Lu Yuan smiled and shook his head while listening to a few people. If this is the case, then the Shaolin Temple is really a little picky.

"What's the matter, but you're laughing at the conversation of a few people?" Su Xiao saw Lu Yuan shaking his head and smiling secretly, and asked.

"Yes, I never thought that the Shaolin Temple would be like this...... Frugal. Lu Yuan originally wanted to say that he was slamming the door, but when he thought that he was in someone else's territory now, it was not good to say so, so he temporarily changed his word.

"When he returned home, did he ever receive a gift from the Shaolin Temple?" Su Xiao smiled and asked rhetorically.

"Let's not talk about receiving gifts from Shaolin Temple, we just want to give the monks of Shaolin Temple a fast, and it is estimated that people may not come over. Lu Yuan laughed at himself.

"Haha, look at the people who spoke just now, what kind of sect are they?" Su Xiao pointed to a few people. Lu Yuan listened to it for a long time, but he didn't hear it.

"The first person to speak is the steward of the Kanshan Gang, a subsidiary of the Li family in Jinzhong, the second one is the steward of the Shandong Haiyu Gang, and the third one is a little famous, and it is the Dingbian Huhao Gang. Su Xiao said it to Lu Yuan, and Lu Yuan nodded slightly, suddenly realized.

"Qingzhu means that these three sects, looking lively, are actually not waiting, Shaolin Temple can send people to give gifts, which is already enough to give face. ”

"Exactly. Can you guess what the gift from the Shaolin Temple was on Su Xuan's birthday?" Su Xiao smiled and asked.

"Well? I can't guess that. Hearing this, Lu Yuan shook his head slightly.

"Zhou Tiandan, a red sandalwood box. Su Xiao said indifferently, but the words he said made Lu Yuan a little dumbfounded.

It turned out to be Zhou Tiandan? Shaolin Temple's differential treatment is really big! The so-called equality of all beings turns out to be this equality law......
