221 Fighting Law Conference

The current fighting law conference in Qingzhou City was held at the Qingyun Temple at the end of the main street in the east of the city. Qingyun Temple is the leading Taoist temple in Qingzhou, even in the entire Southern Liang Kingdom, it is also famous, ranking among the top three.

In this prosperous Qingzhou City, Qingyun Temple covers an area of nearly 100 acres, and the whole building complex is even more huge than the Qingzhou City Mansion and Liao Wangfu.

On the vermilion bronze door of the Taoist temple, a gold lacquer plaque is hung high, the four words of "Lingbu Qingyun" are written on it, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, the momentum is extraordinary, it can make people refreshed at a glance, and the trivial troubles of ordinary words are completely eliminated.

It is said that this is hundreds of years ago a famous immortal who was born in the Southern Liang Kingdom, when he visited the Qingyun Temple to preside, he wrote it himself, and it is one of the immortal signs of the Qingyun Temple. Qingyunguan got its name because of this, and its fame became famous.

There used to be rumors in the market that one of every three people in Qingzhou was a believer in Qingyunguan, and the other two were the wives and concubines and children of this person.

Of course, there are also people who scoff at this statement, and the people of Qingzhou do not believe in Qingyun Temple, but the immortal Taoism. It's just that almost half of the famous Taoist chiefs in Qingzhou place orders in Qingyunguan, so that the people of Qingzhou always run to Qingyunguan.

At this time, it was the first grand event of the Fighting Law Conference. In front of the Qingyun Taoist Temple, more than a dozen thin-looking, quite immortal wind Dao bone Taoist priests lined up to welcome guests from all walks of life.

At this time, a young man in a white shirt walked to the outside of Qingyun Temple, glanced at the four words "Lingbu Qingyun" on the plaque on the gate of the Taoist Temple, and smiled faintly. The immortal hundreds of years ago is probably also a wonderful person, and the four words on the plaque are not surprising. It's just that the plaque is engraved with a clear heart and concentration formation, and when people look at it, they naturally feel refreshed and their troubles are all gone.

This person is none other than Ye Qin.

He promised to stay in Qingzhou City for ten days, and help the Zhang brothers and sisters, Fan, Xia and others to take Qingzhou City from the hands of Liao Wangfu. At this time, only five or six days have passed, and there are still several days.

Ye Qin originally didn't plan to come to see this fighting battle held in the Qingyun Temple. Just wait for the matter here to be dealt with, and then go to the Northern Qi Kingdom. But the people of Liao Wang's Mansion shrank in the mansion and did not come out to fight, but instead made Ye Qin seem to have nothing to do for the rest of the day.

After completing the cultivation of the exercises, when he was bored, Ye Qin remembered the matter of the inn Wu Da's shopkeeper chattering all the time, and wanted to take a look at the fighting law conference in the secular world of the Southern Liang Kingdom, what was going on.

Ye Qin came to Qingyun Temple, handed a gold-inlaid door post to the Taoist priest in front of the Taoist Temple, and then entered the Qingyun Temple, and the audience went to promote the Taoist method of the immortal family's state of mind.

Such a door post, the "weight" is extremely heavy, and it is worth a hundred gold leaves to buy.

This is also a helpless move, after all, although the Qingyun Temple is large, it cannot accommodate the millions of eager people in Qingzhou.

In this Dharma Fighting Conference, only 5,000 believers are allowed to enter the Taoist temple to watch in person, and they need to hold this special door post of Qingyun Temple. The people who can enter the Qingyun Temple are not rich landlords and businessmen, but powerful officials.

Ordinary people are not allowed to enter, and can only wait outside the Taoist temple.

Of course, they also have a way to "see" the fighting methods between masters. Because there will be some scholars in the fighting field, the words and deeds of the masters will be recorded one by one, and transmitted to the many restaurants and teahouses outside the Taoist temple, and then the storyteller will perform the whole process subtly and delicately in front of all the tea guests in the restaurant teahouse, which will satisfy the ears of all believers.

When Ye Qin went, the Dharma Fighting Conference had already begun.

He entered the Qingyun Taoist Temple and came to a huge square in the temple. I saw that at this time, the square was surrounded by black pressure, almost all of which were full, filled with thousands of guests and believers, and such a crowd of people was silent, which was really magical.

In the middle of the square, there is a square-shaped high platform, and four secular monks with immortal wind bones are sitting on four sides, with serious expressions, and they sit and talk about the immortal path of their hearts. The voice is loud and infectious, and even the farthest table in the square can be heard clearly.

Ye Qin casually sat down at a table with an empty seat in the square, ordered a few plates of vegetarian side dishes and light wine, and listened while drinking.

In this Dharma Fighting Conference, the first monks on the stage will tell their own opinions on the Immortal Dao of the State of Mind, and then they will argue with each other about whose opinion is more superior, until one side is speechless, and then it will be considered a victory.

After such a fight, until the debate was made, the person with the most profound skills was argued.

It's also very funny.

He is a cultivator of immortals in the foundation period, but in this secular Taoist temple, listening to a group of mortals who have never really cultivated immortals, arguing about how to cultivate immortals, if this is spread, I am afraid that it will make secular mortals dumbfounded, make immortal cultivators laugh and lose their big teeth, and denounce it as a ridiculous and grotesque act.

Therefore, although the Fighting Law Conference of the Southern Liang Kingdom is extremely prestigious in the secular world, it has almost never been mentioned by a monk in the Lingwu Immortal Cultivation Realm, and it is not famous. It's just that Ye Qin doesn't care about the taboos of immortal cultivators, and there is nothing important now, so he came to this Dharma Fighting Conference to listen to it.

Ye Qin didn't pay much attention to the opinions of these worldly masters at first. Because the secular Taoist priest has no spiritual root, he has never really cultivated the Immortal Dao Exercises, and some of the words he said are full of loopholes, which is also normal, which naturally makes him secretly can't help laughing.

But after listening for a while, he occasionally began to be stunned and stopped the chopsticks that were holding the wine and food.

These secular Taoist priests can win such a big reputation, and it is not for nothing. Among the worldly mortals, there are also prodigies with outstanding minds and talents. Although they can't cultivate immortals, it doesn't mean that they don't have talent. Occasionally, one or two sentences of astonishing words that were enough to leave a name in the history of the Southern Liang Kingdom broke out, and Ye Qin was stunned and couldn't come back to his senses.

At the Doufa venue, once the audience heard the amazing words, they were excited and applauded loudly.

Let Ye Qin look at the secular Taoist priest on the high platform and fall into deep thought. Unconsciously, the wine and food on the table were also tasteless, and the whole person's mind was on the argument of several secular Taoist monks on the high platform.

After listening to the fighting arguments for a long time, Ye Qin's original mentality of contempt and contempt was completely reined in.

There are not many who are qualified to take the stage at the annual Dharma Fighting Conference. The most famous Taoist temples, temples, and academies on the immortal road in Qingzhou City each sent a person with a very high state of mind cultivation to participate in the competition. Counting it, there are only sixteen people with high moral standing who are eligible to participate.

In each fight, four people play at the same time. These four people, either two against two, or one against three, argued about the morality of cultivating the state of mind. Only the winner can stay on the stage.

The Dharma Fighting Conference progressed quickly, and after a few days, it was the final debate.

Ye Qin even smiled bitterly, only hating his Orion background, he couldn't study when he was a child. At the medicine collection hall in Zhuqi County, although I also learned a lot of books, I spent most of my time collecting medicine. After entering the Qingdan Gate, he was even more immersed in cultivation. After the foundation was built, I lived in the mountain gate for half a year, and I saw more.

When the masters on the stage were arguing fiercely, some extremely strange and ancient words burst out of their mouths, and he had a hard time listening. I didn't quite understand, Ye Qin could only write it down in his heart and slowly reminisce about the deep meaning.

The last battle was between a white-eyed old Taoist priest, a fat monk, a middle-aged nun, and a young scholar. The four of them sat on the high platform and debated how many realms the Immortal Dao of Mind should be, the small perfection, the great perfection, and the highest perfection realm. After reaching the realm of Dzogchen, how to leap out of the world and become an otherworldly Dacheng immortal.

In the argument of the four people, it was undoubtedly the old Taoist priest who had the most profound skills, and his mouth was eloquent and endless, making it difficult for the other three to parry. This was followed by the fat monk and the middle-aged nun. The weakest is the young scholar, who talks less and is quite passive.

However, Ye Qin focused his attention on the young scholar. The scholar didn't talk much, but he never made some low-level mistakes, he didn't confuse the real immortal cultivation with the worldly immortal way, and he didn't admit that he could simply make his mind reach perfection and become an immortal. This undoubtedly made the young scholar the target of public criticism, and was surrounded and suppressed by the other three.

And the other three, although they are very eloquent, make some low-level mistakes. It is believed that after the state of mind is cultivated to Dacheng, it can become an immortal.

Ye Qin naturally paid more attention to the young scholar on the stage.

And most importantly, when arguing about how to divide the realm of perfection, the young scholar blurted out in a fit of anxiety, "Meditation and forgetfulness, without dirt and injury, this is the small realm of perfection of the state of mind." ”

This suddenly made Ye Qin startled.

You must know that in the first part of the "Sitting and Forgetting Sutra", this sentence is the core essence of the exercises from the first to the ninth layer of the entire Qi training period.

How could the scholar say that this was the small consummation realm of state of mind cultivation?

Ye Qin couldn't calm down in his heart.

He wanted to understand why the scholar had suddenly said this.

It's a pity that the young scholar was refuted by the other three and kept silent.

This made Ye Qin very annoyed.

There are two people at the same table as Ye Qin. One is a handsome boy dressed as a scholar, with an eagle hooked nose and a smooth face. One is a chubby rich young master,. The two of them whispered idle words without saying a word, and commented on the character of the four people on the stage, which attracted Ye Qin's attention.

Ye Qin arched his hand and asked the two of them with a smile, "Two, I don't know who the four on the stage are?"

The rich young master looked at Ye Qin, Ye Qin was dressed in a simple robe, and he couldn't see what the origin was, but it was difficult for people without identity to come in. He smiled and said, "This brother, I guess your accent is from out of town." The four people on the stage are Wu Daochang of Qingyun Temple, Master Changzhi of Shuanglong Temple, Wuchen Shitai of Qingwan Nunnery, and Shen Dayuan of Baiyi Academy. ”

Ye Qin asked suspiciously, "The one who is often full of mouths and says some awkward words is Master Shen?"

The rich young master laughed: "Yes, that person is Master Shen." Do you know his origin? His real name is Shen Jun, he is a prodigy born in our Qingzhou City, he was only 16 years old when he was even in the middle of the three yuan, and he was appointed to become the champion of this dynasty, and was praised by the current saint as an example of Qingzhou's talents, with the talent of the prime minister, and even privately promised to enter the cabinet of the imperial court. But this son was extremely high-spirited, so he gave up his official career and returned to the Baiyi Academy in Qingzhou City to concentrate on studying the Immortal Dao of the Mood. Later, our fellow villagers in Qingzhou jokingly called him Shen Dayuan. Unexpectedly, he broke into the top four for the first time this year, and he has not fallen to the downside, which is amazing. ”

The handsome boy sneered: "What's so great about Master Shen, he also went to a private school in the city with this son more than ten years ago. But after that kid developed, he didn't recognize us former classmates, which is deeply ashamed. ”

The rich young master smiled and said: "Come on, you have been in the private school for more than ten years and you are still a showman, and you are a champion in the family, of course you don't have the face to recognize you as a classmate." I was fortunate enough to have a drink with him back then. It's just that now his fame is too great, but he doesn't have the time to mess with us little people. ”

The young man's face turned red, and he said a few words angrily.

After Ye Qin got the surname on the high platform, he no longer talked about these two rich children. After he took a few sips of wine, he saw that the Dharma Fighting Conference had dispersed, and the young scholar walked towards the inner courtyard of the Taoist temple.

He dropped a silver leaf on the table and followed him to the inner courtyard. He hadn't figured out the doubt just now, and wanted to ask Shen Jun face to face why the state of mind was so similar to the morality of "Sitting and Forgetting the Sutra".

A red-faced middle-aged Taoist priest was standing at the door of the inner courtyard of the Taoist Temple, and when he saw that Ye Qin was about to enter, he hurriedly stopped him and shouted: "The place where the Daomen is cultivated, idle people are not allowed to enter! Please leave." ”

Ye Qin was stunned for a moment and said, "I'll look for the scholar who went in just now." ”

The red-faced Taoist priest took a big mouth and said, "No, if you disturb the tranquility of the Dao Masters of this academy and interrupt your cultivation, you kid can't afford it." ”

Ye Qin was secretly annoyed, and he didn't want to entangle with this Taoist priest.

He pinched the magic trick in his hand, pressed it lightly on the shoulder of the red-faced Taoist priest, and a faint blue light flashed, "Ding!" and swaggered into the inner courtyard. For a worldly person, he hardly used any mana, and the immobilization spell would naturally disappear after only three or four hours.

The red-faced Taoist priest froze directly on the spot, his eyes were shocked, his mouth was open, and he maintained a strange posture. The Taoist priests who entered and exited the inner courtyard all looked at the red-faced Taoist priest strangely, not understanding which method they were cultivating.

Within a few steps, Ye Qin had already caught up with Shen Jun. "This Brother Shen, please stay, I have a question below!"

That Shen Jun was burying his head and hurrying eagerly. However, his temper was not bad, and he was suddenly blocked by someone for advice, and he didn't show his displeasure, but just arched his hand and said lightly: "This brother, please speak!"

Ye Qin asked: "When you were arguing on the stage, you once mentioned that 'meditation and forgetfulness, without dirt and injury, is the realm of small perfection'. I don't know Brother Shen, how can he have such an opinion?" At the same time, he stared at Shen Jun's expression tightly.

Shen Jun was taken aback, looked up at Ye Qin, and opened his mouth.

This sentence was blurted out by the other three people on the stage, and he was forced by the other three people of the fighting method. When he said it, he regretted it immensely. This should not have been said at all.

Now he hurried back to the inner courtyard, and was about to ask his master for his guilt.

Shen Jun thought about it for a while, he was neither willing to lie nor tell the truth, and said: "This brother, if you trace the origin of Shuoyuan, this sentence is from an ancient scholar Zheng's article, "Sitting and Forgetting Ming", Neiyun: 'Chang Mo's vitality is not hurt, and Shao Si Hui candle is light. It is not angry and smooth, and it is cool without annoyance. Don't seek no flattery, no attachment can be round and square. If you are not greedy, you will be rich, and you will not be afraid of the court'. This means: always be silent, and do not argue much about meaningless small things. Don't meditate on trivial things, and don't bother with things outside of your body. Bear anger and be tolerant, and don't worry about small gains and losses, so as not to be angry and kill yourself. In this way, the natal vitality will not be reduced as much as possible. If this ancient text is used, it is the original meaning and source of 'meditating, sitting and forgetting, without dirt and no injury'. There are still some mundane things to deal with below, so I will take my leave!"

Shen Jun didn't want to say more, and after giving it up, he hurriedly turned around and walked towards the inner courtyard. He also glanced back, and saw that Ye Qin did not follow, so he was relieved and quickened his pace.

Ye Qin stood in place and watched him leave in silence.

The first part of the "Sitting and Forgetting Sutra" also clearly states that it is required to be silent and cold, stop the heartbeat, and reduce the loss of vitality. This volume of basic immortal cultivation exercises turned out to be from a book of secular mortals, which surprised him very much.

However, what surprised him even more was that Shen Jun's expression was obviously hiding something.
