Chapter 377: Seeking the Way
This sentence of the Buddha seems simple, but it contains the supreme truth as the truth, Li Qianmo and Chu Xingyao listened to it, they both tasted it silently, but this is the Buddha's wonderful words when he penetrated the entrance of life and death, if ordinary people have no special experience, how can they understand the truth, even if they are as smart as Li Qianmo, they can only shake their heads and sigh.
After a long time, Li Qianmo suddenly thought of a question: Since Lan Ruo Buddha came here from the Taixu Universe, how did he come here? Is it the same road he walked? If not, he would like to know where the other path is, and maybe he can find a way to go back.
As soon as he thought of this, he hurriedly turned around and bowed to the Dharma, and said respectfully: "Master, may I ask how the Buddha Lan Ruo came to this universe back then?"
Hearing this, Hongfa shook his head and said, "This family doesn't know the Tao, and the scriptures left by the Buddha don't mention it. ”
"Oh. Li Qianmo couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment when he heard this, and the glimmer of hope in his heart to go back was extinguished.
Seeing that he looked depressed, Hongfa came over and asked with concern, "Tan Yue, are you okay?"
Li Qianmo squeezed out a smile, waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, master, can I ask you for one thing." ”
Hongfa spread his hands and smiled: "Tan Yue, please speak, as long as a certain family can do it, it will definitely be able to help you." ”
Li Qianmo nodded and said solemnly: "Master, this place is the place where the Buddha sits, and he seems to have penetrated the entrance of life and death here, so this place is inevitably contaminated with the aura of the Buddha's life and death. ”
"Ah, this ......" Hongfa frowned slightly when he heard this, showing a look of embarrassment, and said, "This matter is not trivial, a certain family can't be the master, and you must ask the abbot senior brother." ”
Li Qianmo nodded and said: "This is the place where the Buddha sits, it is very sacred to you, I know that my request is a bit excessive, but I still have to bother the master to ask the abbot of your temple." ”
"No need, this matter has been agreed by a certain family. Suddenly an old voice came from outside the courtyard, and the three of them turned their heads when they heard the words, only to see a handsome old monk walking in slowly, although he was very old, with white eyebrows hanging down, but he was full of smiles, like a pearl of jade, faintly like a treasure flowing.
"Who is this master?" Li Qianmo looked at the old monk who had entered the courtyard with a puzzled face.
The old monk Ha Luha smiled and said: "A certain family is called Hongdao, and temporarily occupies the position of abbot of Da Lei Yin Temple. ”
When Hongfa saw Hongdao coming in, he immediately saluted him: "Senior brother, you are here." ”
"Hmm. Hongdao nodded and said with a smile, "I heard that you brought two guests to visit the place where the Buddha was destroyed, and a certain family came to see it." After he said that, he turned his head and looked at Li Qianmo with a smile, and said, "This must be the Great Elder of the Shaking Light Sect, who defeated the Shaking Light Sect on the Star Domain Battlefield with the power of one person, and the Elder of the Kaiyang Sect who shocked the Kaiyang Star, the Great Imperial Heavenly King Li Qianmo Tanyue, right?"
He said such a long name in one breath, Li Qianmo was embarrassed when he heard it, and hurriedly said: "The master is elevated, such a majestic name, I can't afford to be under it." ”
"You deserve it. Hongdao said with a smile, "Think about the Star Field battlefield is to let the monks go to death, such a miserable thing, our Great Lei Yin Temple has always had the intention to stop it, but there is nothing to be done, think about the Great Imperial Heavenly King, you are bloodless, and you ended this war, do you know that Lu Dao Your move has saved the lives of tens of thousands of monks, this is a supreme merit, so that a certain family is extremely admired." ”
Li Qianmo was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Hongdao to say such a peculiar opinion, he did it at the beginning, it was completely for his own selfish interests, where did he have such a noble idea, it was really crooked, and now he was praised by Hongdao, he felt even more ashamed, but he was speechless, simply didn't speak, and let Hongdao praise.
After Hongdao finished praising it, he continued to smile and said: "If others want to stay in this place where the Buddha is destroyed, a certain family will definitely not allow it, but the Great Imperial Heavenly King, you have immeasurable merits, and you have a relationship with my Buddha, and a certain family makes an exception for you to live here, maybe you can really understand anything from the breath left by the Buddha." ”
Li Qianmo smiled and arched his hand: "Thank you Master for your success, by the way, Master, I am no longer the guest elder of Kaiyang Sect, so in the future, the title of the Great Heavenly King should not be called." ”
"Oh. Hongdao nodded when he heard this, and said, "In a certain humble opinion, it is better not to be the Great Heavenly King, what cultivators are looking for is the principle of the Great Dao, if they always think of these ethereal things outside the body, it will delay their cultivation." ”
Li Qianmo smiled when he heard this, clapped his hands and praised: "What the master said is very true." ”
Hongdao smiled, pointed to the old houses in the courtyard, and said slowly: "How many virtuous monks have lived in these two houses, and now it is Li Tanyue's turn for you, I hope you can understand something here." ”
Li Qianmo was surprised when he heard this: "Is there a virtuous monk?
"Not really. Hongdao shook his head and said, "Although the Buddha died in this courtyard, he has never lived here. ”
Li Qianmo nodded when he heard this, and said secretly in his heart: "It turns out that the Buddha has never lived here, no wonder he agreed to me so easily, if it was really the place where the Buddha once lived, they couldn't let an outsider live so easily." ”
Hongdao saw him frowning and groaning, and couldn't help asking, "Li Tanyue, what else do you have to do?"
Li Qianmo hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay, thank you Master Abbot for letting us stay here." ”
"Why be so polite. Hongdao waved his hand and chuckled, "The living things in the house are complete, if you still need anything, just come to a certain house." ”
Hongfa smiled on the side and said, "If the senior brother is not there, it is okay to come to a certain family." ”
When Li Qianmo heard this, he saluted and said, "The two masters are really too polite, and staying here here has already caused trouble to the two of them, how dare you bother them any more." ”
"Out of the way, out of the way. Hongdao waved his hand and smiled, and said, "The two Tan Yue can rest assured to stay here, let's take our leave first." ”
When Li Qianmo heard this, he hurriedly sent them out of the city and saluted goodbye.
After sending off the two great monks, Chu Xingyao suddenly stopped being restrained, smiled at Li Qianmo, and said, "Let's go into the room and have a look." ”
Li Qianmo was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Let's live separately!"
Chu Xingyao was stunned when he heard this, and said angrily: "Who wants to live with you, you want to be beautiful!" After that, he stomped his feet, turned around and walked to the door on the left, pushed the door and rushed in, and slapped the door with his backhand.
Li Qianmo was stunned when he saw this, a little dazed, and muttered after a long time: "What's wrong with her, I didn't say anything wrong, how can I say that I get angry?"
Although he was extremely intelligent, it was difficult to guess the thoughts of his daughter's family, and after thinking for a long time, he had no clue, so he simply shook his head, walked to the door on the right, pushed the door and walked in.
The room is covered with a dust-proof magic circle, even if no one has lived in it for many years, there is no dust on all kinds of furniture, the house is simply furnished, a bed, a square table, a few stools, and a few low cabinets, and that's it.
Seeing that there was such a simple house in such a big sect as Da Lei Yin Temple, he couldn't help but sigh secretly: "The people in the Buddhist sect really live simply, there have been many monks here, and the more monks are enlightened, the more they will not care about the quality of the residence." ”
As he spoke, he jumped onto the couch and meditated cross-legged, facing the gate, which was now open to the eight linden trees in the courtyard.
Seeing these eight Bodhi trees, Li Qianmo sighed in his heart, how powerful the Buddha is to reach the sky, and there is a catastrophe that cannot be avoided, which makes Li Qianmo question the strength of the Dao Zun, what is the end of the cultivation path, is there a mysterious and powerful existence above the Dao Zun?
As soon as he thought of such an esoteric question, he couldn't help but start an endless reverie, there was really one person who could be more powerful than Dao Zun in his impression, but this person was just a legend, and he didn't know if Lu Dao really existed, that was Hongmeng Dao Ancestor.
Hongmeng is the first person in the Taixu universe, but a chaotic qi was generated in response to the creation of heaven and earth, and after he appeared, he began to realize the Tao, and later became the first person to discover the "Tao", so he was honored as the Taoist ancestor.
Although Hongmeng is known as the Taoist ancestor, he only discovered the Tao, but did not create the Tao, so where the Tao came from, is still a mystery, Li Qianmo is not a person who follows the rules, so he began to imagine wildly, guessing where the origin of the Tao is.
Li Qianmo's speculation and speculation are unlimited, but they are not boundless thoughts, he has the "Tao Sutra" as a clue, the "Tao Sutra" seems to be left by Hongmeng Daozu, and the scriptures in it do not have any cultivation methods, specifically to convey the principles of the Tao.
He extrapolated from the scriptures of the Tao Sutra and found that according to the scriptures, the "Tao" actually existed eternal, immortal and immortal.
When he found this, he immediately shook his head and said to himself: "Impossible, how can there be something in this world that exists forever, and it is impossible not to be born and immortal, everything has reincarnation, and the Tao should be the same." ”
Since the ideas of the "Tao Jing" have diverged from his thoughts, Li Qianmo simply threw away the Tao Jing and figured it out according to his own ideas.
However, the "Dao" is the existence of heaven and earth, and many people have no chance to understand it in their lifetime, even if they are as strong as the Dao Zun, they have only found their own Tao in a daze, and no one has ever been able to find the origin of the Dao.
Although Li Qianmo said that he was smart and world-famous, with his current vision and cultivation, it was like looking for the origin of the Dao, which was a little self-conscious, and after three months, he had not made any progress and returned to the original point.
Li Qianmo knows that the most taboo to drill the horns of the Taoist method is to drill the tip of the horns, since this road is not passable, then detour, this is his own way of adaptation, so he put aside this question for the time being, and came to the courtyard every day to meditate and practice, and in his spare time, he felt the breath left by the Buddha here with the Son of Heaven Wangqi technique.
Chu Xingyao is already satisfied as long as she can be with Li Qianmo, every day when Li Qianmo meditates, she is quietly watching in front of the house, for her, this is a kind of enjoyment, and she will never get tired of it.
