Qiu Yue smiled, "This matter is not right with Buddhism first, originally Lao Wei just wanted the Dragon King to invite Master Qin to Buddhism and treat him with courtesy, taking this as an opportunity to make Sect Master Xu rush to Buddhism, but I didn't expect it to be self-defeating, but fortunately, Sect Master Xu still came to Buddhism after all." ”

When Xu Beiyou heard this, he suddenly realized, no wonder when he went to see the Dragon King, the Dragon King actually suggested that he come to participate in the Obon Festival Festival so simply, but he didn't expect this to be the intention of Buddhism.

Qiu Yue continued: "It's not a secret, when Lao Ke was young, he went to the imperial capital because of something, and because of this incident, he had a conflict with Brother Akiba Dao who also rushed to come, and now Lao Qu is not the opponent of Brother Akiba Dao, and Lao Qu at that time was also not the opponent of Brother Akiba Dao, so at the cost of a treasure flower, he invited the Qin Shi Lord, who was also in the imperial capital at that time, to join forces with Lao Ke to fight against Brother Akiba Dao. ”

Xiao Zhinan said: "It's a matter of pupils, the emperor's grandfather once left a few words. ”

Qiu Yue nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, in the final analysis, the matter of the year was that the river mussels competed, and the fisherman profited, and Emperor Xiao was the fisherman who benefited. ”

Xiao Zhinan smiled slightly, "Master Abbot's words are wrong, it is true that the Buddhist Gate returned empty-handed, but the Daomen is not, Autumn Leaves formed a good relationship with the Emperor Ancestor because of this matter, which led to the later joint efforts." ”

Qiu Yue pointed her fingers in the shape of a flower, and said with a smile: "What Her Royal Highness the eldest princess said is extremely true, as the so-called slow step is slow step, in that ten-year competition, my Buddhism Gate lost to the Daomen like this." ”

Back then, a ten-year competition that affected the whole world, how many power battles, how many open and secret battles, of course, would not be able to summarize the past in a sentence like Qiu Yue, but at this time, Qiu Yue said so, Xiao Zhinan naturally did not refute, just nodded yes.

Qiu Yue continued: "The old man invited the two of you to come over today, not to talk about the Dharma, not the Dharma. ”

Xu Beiyou asked, "What do you mean by what the master said?"

Qiu Yue smiled and said: "The Sword Sect and the Daomen are both from the Dao Ancestor, so the Xu Sect Master should also know that there are five factions in the Dao Gate, namely Jishan, Zhan Xian, Classic, Danding, and Fu Seal, among which the Danding and Fu Seal are powerful, but they are at the end of the five factions, although the Jishan Sect is thin, but they are all outstanding figures who are not born in the world, and they have always been at the head of the five factions.

Xu Beiyou shook his head and didn't know.

Qiuyue said: "The way of accumulating goodness is the way to take into account the world, and the way of Danding and Fu Seal is just a small way to refine itself, and the two are higher and lower, and they are distinct. ”

Xu Beiyou asked, "Dare to ask Master Abbot, what is the difference between the avenue and the trail?"

Although Qiu Yue is a person in Buddhism, Buddhism and Taoism have intersected for many years, and they know each other very well.

Xu Beiyou said: "This is nature, the ancestor once taught me, the realm of ghosts and immortals is only a person who cultivates, and the immortals are just people who cultivate the truth, only the realm of the earth and immortals can be regarded as truly entering the threshold of a fairy word, the eighteenth floor of the earth immortal is like a ladder to the sky, after reaching the top, it is to complete the road of immortality, but it has not completed the road to the sky, if you want to ascend to the sky, you have to climb the nine heavens in turn, so that you can see the boundless mystery above the nine heavens, and achieve the supreme immortal immortal who has achieved the immortal immortal palm creation." The so-called Supreme Dao Ancestor, the so-called Immeasurable Longevity Buddha, and the so-called extraterritorial Heavenly Demons are all the same. ”

Xu Beiyou paused slightly, "To make an inappropriate analogy, the way of cultivation is like doing business with God, the ghost fairy is just a merchant who walks the streets and alleys with a burden, and the human immortal is just a vendor with a fixed stall, and the earth immortal can be regarded as having a serious storefront, and the size of the store varies depending on the level of cultivation, but in the final analysis, these three have to look at the face of the heavenly dao, and only when they become immortal realms, like a rich businessman, can they barely have the capital to bargain." As for the Heavenly Immortal Realm, it is already a giant who is rich and rivals the country, and the Dao Tong and the disciples and grandchildren left behind are like the horse fleet in the south and north under his command, even if they sit behind closed doors at home, there are thousands of gold rolling in, and they can almost be on an equal footing with the Heavenly Dao. ”

Qiu Yue stroked his palm and said: "Sect Master Gongsun can be said to be in one sentence, the fundamental difference between immortals and immortals lies in the merit of a Taoist system. This is the difference between the Jishan faction and the Danding faction, no matter how deep the Danding faction is, it is just a Dao fruit of the realm of immortals, but the Jishan faction can directly point to the immortals, which is the avenue of the immortals. ”

Xu Beiyou asked again: "I don't know what this has to do with the Dharma that the abbot master wants to say?"

Qiu Yue said slowly: "The Taoist sect has the Taoist ancestors, the Buddhism also has the Buddha's teachings, the Taoist sect has five schools, there are large and small divisions, and the Buddhism of my Buddhism also has the difference between Mahayana and Hinayana Buddhism, the so-called Hinayana Buddhism, also known as the Arhat Dharma, because the Hinayana Buddhism can only be self-controlled, and can not save people, so it is called 'small', and because the Hinayana 'extreme fruit' has not reached the end, it is also called 'small', in other words, Hinayana Buddhism can only achieve the Arhat fruit. Mahayana Buddhism is not, Mahayana Buddhism pays attention to the purification of sentient beings, carrying immeasurable sentient beings to the other side of Bodhi Nirvana, hence the name 'great', if someone can see the Tao and purify the mind, then can send a great bodhicitta and make a grand vow, to save sentient beings from the sea of suffering, you can achieve the bodhisattva fruition, the greater the grand wish, the greater the supernatural power, if you can complete the grand vow, you can achieve the Buddha's fruition, not inferior to the realm of the Taoist immortals. ”

Xiao Zhinan inherited the tradition of Xiao's women's worship of the Buddha, studied the Buddhist scriptures since childhood, and was no stranger to this, and said: "Guanzi Bodhisattva is the teacher of the Seven Buddhas, only because the grand vow has not been fulfilled, so he has not become a Buddha for a long time. King Jizo Bodhisattva made a grand vow that hell is not empty, and he will not become a Buddha, so he has not become a Buddha. ”

Qiu Yue nodded in agreement and said, "What Her Royal Highness the eldest princess said is very true. ”

Xiao Zhinan said again: "The abbot master is the head of the Buddha Gate, and he is a figure comparable to the autumn leaves of the Taoist Dao, and he wants to study Mahayana Buddhism." ”

Qiu Yue clasped her hands together and praised: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, Huigen and discernment, is a person with great wisdom, if you enter the Buddhist sect to practice, you are expected to attain the Bodhisattva fruit." ”

Xiao Zhinan subconsciously glanced at Xu Beiyou beside him, shook his head with a smile and said: "Zhinan is in the red dust, and he can't break free, I'm afraid that he will live up to the master's good intentions." ”

Qiu Yue smiled slightly, and said disapprovingly: "Born in the world, the family is empty, but there is no difference between a thought. If Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has a Buddha in her heart, she is in the Weiyang Palace in the imperial capital, and she can also achieve the Bodhisattva fruit, just as Sect Master Xu holds a sharp weapon and slaughters countless people, but there is a way in her heart, and she is not unable to prove the way of immortals. ”

Xiao Zhinan was slightly stunned, and looked at Xu Beiyou again.

I saw that Xu Beiyou had no joy or sorrow, and said in a deep voice: "The master is in a good realm, I'm afraid it is not far from the realm above the so-called eighteenth floor of the Earth Immortal." ”
