Chapter 7 Enlightenment Apprenticeship
The temple was the only temple within a radius of 100 miles, and when the foreign monks came to the country with white horses and scriptures, the first temple was established in this way. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info those monks who came here for the first time with infinite confidence, but also firmly believe that with the support of the emperor of this country, the faith that can make them devote their lives will also blossom all over this land, to use their own beliefs and methods to change and redeem the people of this land.
But they didn't know that in this country, the ancestor of the emperor who brought them to this land, the man who established this dynasty, had a subordinate named Xiao He, and the sentence derived from him was called Xiao He, and Xiao He was defeated.
They prosper because of the emperor of this country, but they also decline because of the emperor of this country, every emperor cannot live forever and sit in that position all the time, sometimes the throne changes, sometimes the dynasty changes, and not every emperor likes them, when there is a man named Tuoba Tao who thinks that these bald heads are a little in the way, and with a stroke of his pen he wants to remove them from this land, but he does not know what to do! Even if he makes them start anew again, he is cautious.
And the Huasheng Temple is one of the seeds that carefully emerged in this land after that, trying to be a pioneer, but did not dare to plant a second one around, so there is only this temple within a radius of 100 miles, but it is also a few twists and turns, sometimes the temples with many people can not live, sometimes there are only a few people, and the monks of the Dharma generation are even more pitiful, when the abbot of Fa Ming is still coming, the temple is only the abbot Fa Yi Master and the halfway monk Fa Zhen two people.
Later, after the death of Master Fayi, he entrusted the Huasheng Temple to the abbot of Faming, and began to accept the Xuanzi generation, but there were only six or seven people.
The senior brother Xuanfa is the apprentice who was accepted on the way to find the scriptures before the abbot of Faming came to the Huasheng Temple, and the abbot of Faming stayed to be the abbot of the Huasheng Temple, and he also became a senior brother!
And the second senior brother Xuande, but a family of monks who believe in Buddhism within a radius of dozens of miles, when he was a child, he sent over to shave his hair and take refuge in Buddhism, but he no longer had to practice with that family, and sometimes the member would bring Xuande's biological mother to worship the Buddha.
As for the third senior brother Xuanji, it is interesting, he was a Taoist priest, with his master wandering here, in line with the principle of being a monk to make it convenient, he settled in the temple, but the Taoist monk is close to the road is also the opposite, his master saw the abbot of Faming and inevitably had to fight over the matter of the monk's Tao, that both sides are tongues and lotus flowers, the mouth is like a river, quoting scriptures and classics in the end for three days and three nights in a row, but in the end it was the master of the mystery that was slightly inferior, and he was defeated. Looking at this ending, he decided that the Tao was not as good as the Dharma, and ********he was about to enter the Buddha's door, and his master couldn't stop him at all, seeing that he had made up his mind, and finally he only sighed and walked away!
Speaking of the fourth senior brother Xuanwu, but he is the only disciple of Elder Fazhen, he is the son of the shopkeeper of an inn within a radius of dozens of miles, because he often listens to the storyteller who sells art in the inn to tell some stories about what martial arts masters, what heroes who punch all directions, what young heroes who go to the end of the world with a sword, and what swordsmen who draw swords to help each other when they see unevenness, but they have a deep obsession with martial arts since he was a child, and hope that one day he will also learn martial arts and then see uneven roads and wander the world as those storytellers said.
For this reason, he once planned to mingle with a certain gangster leader in West Street, because he felt that the whole street was afraid of him, and he must be very powerful! But later he saw that he was chased by Butcher Zhang on East Street with a pig-killing knife from East Street to West Street, and finally he hid and did not dare to go out, and he wanted to learn martial arts from Butcher Zhang, because he felt that Butcher Zhang was a bit like a swordsman mentioned by the storyteller. But then he found that he either killed pigs or pigs every day, and in addition to looking scary, he didn't seem to have any martial arts, which made him start to believe that the storytellers said by the inn guys were all lies.
But one day, two people came to the inn, one with a knife and a hat, the other with a sword and wearing a snow-white robe, the one with a knife came first, and hurriedly asked for a room, but Xiao Er took the key to take him to see the room, and before he left the hall, the man with the sword came, and just shouted: "Bah! He fought regardless of the situation, and he was playing around at that time, but they fought regardless of others, and the adults reacted so fast that they avoided it, but they just got out of the table and stayed there in a daze, to see that the two were about to hurt him by mistake, at this time a monk who had been eating silently on the side stood up, and he didn't see many movements, but walked between the two people, a few back and forth, their swords fell to the ground, leaving the two people in a daze, not knowing what was happening for a while, and then the monk looked at them and said coldly: "You almost hurt this kid just now!" so frightened that they didn't pick up their swords, and ran out of the inn!
Although even if this matter passed like this, the guests all breathed a sigh of relief, and the innkeeper did not lose anything, but took the money for the room with the knife and picked up a knife and a sword for nothing. And that night, Xuanwu couldn't sleep at all, he carefully recalled what happened during the day, and decided that the one who held the knife was the swordsman, and the one who held the sword should be a swordsman or a young man or something, but the monk must be more powerful, didn't you see that the two people who were scared with just two or three strokes ran away without picking up the swords?
So the next morning, he came to the monk's room and knelt on the ground to beg the monk to accept him as an apprentice, the monk saw that it was just a child, so naturally he didn't agree, and finally carried the back of the neck collar to the shopkeeper to let his father persuade, and his father listened to what was going on, and his face was full of joy and begged the monk to accept his son, the monk naturally said no, but in the end he was bored and left behind: You want to worship me as a teacher, as long as you dare to find me from here alone, I will accept you. It was just perfunctory, thinking that this child should not do it! Who knows! At that time, Xuanwu was a tendon, and he really walked to the Huasheng Temple alone. The monk is naturally Elder Fazhen, when he saw that he was really coming, he didn't know what to do, so he deliberately didn't go to see him, who knew that Xuanwu had been kneeling at the door of the Huasheng Temple, saying that he really didn't see him, he didn't get up, but he thought that this was the so-called test, but this kneeling was three days, Fazhen was helpless, and finally had to accept him!
