Chapter 198: Promotion to Spiritual Mountain Disciple

Da Lei Yin Temple, just the Lingshan Buddha's transmission dojo, in fact, the Lingshan Holy Land is very vast. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Northwest behind the Great Lei Yin Temple, there are many tall and scattered fairy palace pavilions and Zen temples. The Outer Gate Discipline Academy was thousands of miles away from the peaks of the Spirit Mountain, which would take several hours for an ordinary casual cultivator, but Gao Lan had already arrived in a blink of an eye.

For her who has traveled through the starry sky, this distance is just lifting her legs. Seeing that the sky was already bright, Gao Lan finally came to the location of the outer gate of Lingshan.

Patches of Zen courtyards, temples, and walls are covered with one immortal mountain after another, even if the gods come here, it is a little dazzling. However, the biggest difference between the architecture of the immortal world and the mortal world is the word "big", which Gao Lan had seen when he entered the Scattered Cultivation Sect before. However, compared with Lingshan, the size of the scattered cultivation is far inferior to the architecture of Lingshan.

The building of Lingshan is tall, vast, broad and grand, even if the elephant demon king of Lion Camel Ridge comes here, there will be no abrupt feeling!

This is the first impression that those patchwork green tiles and red walls give Gao Lan. I searched all the way along the wide mountain path, but there were many people who also came to Lingshan to take refuge and became disciples of the outer sect. With these people as "guides", Gao Lan saved a lot of trouble, and in a short time he had already come to a building with a seven-zhang high door and a Zen courtyard covered with a hundred-mile hill.

This is the outer gate "Discipline Academy", and it is also the place where new disciples sign up. At this time, outside this immortal courtyard, there were already a lot of registered monks, and their faces were extremely excited, after all, they could come to Lingshan for further study, and it would be a lifetime of glory after they went out. However, in order to successfully become a disciple of Lingshan, you must first listen to the elders' teachings in this "Discipline Academy" and memorize the rules of the sect, which is the first step to becoming an outer disciple.

Gao Lan shook his spirits, and with many monks, he calmly stepped into this door.

The "Vinaya Temple" of Lingshan guards the quality of new disciples, so it is not a separate monastery. Therefore, it was also built so grandiosely, and there were no less than ten inner and outer Zen temples. Generally, new disciples have to register here, and after learning the relevant rules, they also have to receive some necessary learning materials. Gao Lan is still dressed as an unchanged scholar. The long robe and scarf attracted the attention of many disciples who came to sign up.

But there are very few people who really know her.

After all, only people with status can participate in the scripture transmission conference, and it is impossible for ordinary scattered immortals to know about the great gods, and naturally they don't know Gao Lan.

Ask for the path. Gao Lan walked into a Zen temple, and saw that the disciples who came to listen to the lecture here were even more crowded. The Lingshan Holy Land is not as scattered as a place, and the new disciples are all characters who have truly cultivated to become immortals, and there are even golden immortals. Some of them were converted by Lingshan monks for meritorious service, some were disciples of the Sanxian Sect who joined the Buddhist sect for further study after completing their studies, and of course, there were also those who were "forced" to take refuge like the Bull Demon King.

There are not many people like Gao Lan who directly become a disciple of Lingshan.

"Gao Lan?" lined up in front of a precept elder and handed over his book. This name is the name that Gao Lan has always used now, because everyone around him calls it that. So Gao Lan is also used to writing. The elder glanced at Gao Lan's name and then at her people. "It seems that there is no such an outer disciple entering my Spirit Mountain this year. Where did you get this letter?"

The precept elder was a somewhat old-looking monk, dressed in a robe, and he held the beads in one hand and slowly twisted them in the other, and in the other hand held Gao Lan's letter, checking the roster of new disciples. Lingshan's books are all with meager mana aura, and just a shake can distinguish the authenticity from the fake. Of course, Gao Lan's letter will not be fake, but her name is not registered on the roster.

"Elder, I am a disciple of the Golden Cicada. Master asked me to sign up here. "Gao Lan didn't report the name of the Buddha, that would be too ostentatious, but it couldn't be too low-key, it would be too troublesome. Sure enough, the name of the golden cicada was enough to make the elders here forget about it. Hurriedly took a treasure box and handed it to Gao Lan's hand. "It turned out to be an outer disciple of the inner determination, please come in, please come in!"

"Thank you. Gao Lan bowed his palms together and found that it was not bad to have a loud name, at least there was a lot less trouble. Subsequently. The elder lifted a jade pipe-like magic pen, dipped it in black and gold immortal ink, and added Gao Lan's name to the roster. "Next ......"

After that, Gao Lan and many other disciples entered one of the Zen monasteries, sat on the ground on the futon, and then the precept elders came up to the stage to give lectures. This Zen monastery is very large, with thousands of people seated, all of whom have learned and succeeded, as well as some converted monsters, and all kinds of characters. The greatest wish of these people is naturally to make merits on the Lingshan Mountain, and then bathe in the light of the Buddha to achieve the golden body of Zhengguo.

If you think that these new disciples are fleshy feet and want to bully one or two, then I am afraid that you will get a lesson that you will never forget.

Because among these disciples, Gao Lan had already discovered that there were "acquaintances". One of the young men, with two mustaches, was none other than the Yellow Wind Monster! Sitting beside him were the King of the Cold, the King of the Summer, the King of the Dust, and others. Obviously, the Bodhisattvas saw their sincerity and asked them to take refuge in Buddhism to seek positive results. On the other side, there was also a middle-aged Taoist man with a tall figure and a full beard.

This Taoist who sat there silently was none other than the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord, the master of the Yellow Flower Temple, and a powerful Nine Turns Golden Immortal. Now he has also been transformed by Vilamba Bodhisattva and converted to the Great Religion. In addition, Gao Lan actually saw Ling Liang and Song Lei, who were obviously nominated by the Dragon Girl to come to Lingshan. Ling Liang said a long time ago that he wanted a golden body, and now he finally saw hope.

"I have someone to protect me, but don't get into trouble. It is the right way to make merit earlier, to become a true disciple, and to really go to the Hall of Merit to reunite with Master and Senior Brother. Gao Lan retracted his mind, and under the instructions of the Discipline Elder, he opened a book in the treasure box with everyone. This is not a scripture for practice, but some precepts and rules of Lingshan.

Any sect has rules, especially in the Holy Land of Lingshan, where the outer disciples are mixed with dragons and snakes, and there are all kinds of characters, so it is impossible to let them go. There are many rules in Lingshan, but the requirements for these unruly disciples are not strict, the main thing is not to injure each other, to have the friendship of the same family;

After all, many converted youkai can't be left to their own devices, and relative relaxation is fine, but it's also impossible to be completely free-range. Because there are many people among the fairies who are foodies, such as the cute-looking Baipeng King.

Of course, the most important thing that the Vinaya tells its disciples is not the question of eating, but the reward of merit.

Disciples of the Buddhist sect should have the courage to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and with merit, they will be able to record it in the merit book. The amount of merit will be able to be exchanged for a considerable reward. Whether it is exercises, elixirs, magic weapons, or the Buddha's personal guidance, as long as the amount of merit is sufficient, you can get it! Of course, the greatest merit is still to seek the golden body of positive fruits. Of course, this kind of merit is not something that ordinary disciples can accumulate.

If you want to ask how much merit is of the golden body of Zhengguo, and look at the process of studying scriptures for 14 years of Tang monks and apprentices, you can understand a general idea. And only Tang Seng and Sun Wukong have achieved the golden body of the Buddha, and the others are only at the level of Bodhisattvas and Arhats.

"The rules and precepts can only restrain the weak. What kind of merit is a person like the Golden-winged Dapeng who eats the people of a country and has nothing to do, but the Buddha still gives him the golden body and the fruit to take refuge? This kind of thing can only be used, but it cannot be rigidly observed, otherwise it will not become a big thing for hundreds of years. It took about a morning for the introductory homework of the Discipline Academy to be completed, and Gao Lan put away the books and pondered the reasoning.

She came to the conclusion that the weak follow the rules, the strong take advantage of the rules, the small gods break the rules, and the big gods make the rules.

After eight days of preaching the scriptures, Gao Lan's mentality has quietly changed.

"Hey, Senior Sister Xiaolan!" Just as Gao Lan was about to go to the "Zen Heart Courtyard" with many disciples, a voice stopped her. Gao Lan turned around and saw that it was indeed the Yellow Wind Monster and the three rhinoceros. After greeting each other, Huang Feng Wei said: "Why are you bored and silent, why don't you even say hello when your old friends meet?" It's too boring." The King of Summer also said, "That's it." ā€

With that, Ling Liang and Song Lei also came to Gao Lan's side and patted her arm affectionately.

Gao Lan said with a smile: "It's not that I don't greet everyone, it's just that our master and apprentice went all the way to the West Heaven, everyone got the Zhengguo Golden Body, the master became an elder, and the apprentices became true inheritance, but I was still mixed in the outer gate." Isn't this shameless to see Jiangdong's father?" Huang Feng Monster listened, but said: "What's this, Lingji Bodhisattva has already told us about you." The two of us are connected by the same fate!"

"Well, too!" Gao Lan couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. Wasn't this weasel originally the pet of Lingji Bodhisattva? Now that he has made meritorious contributions, he has finally truly entered the Lingshan Precept Academy, become an official disciple, and have the qualifications to pursue the right result. On the other side, the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord also slowed down and looked at Gao Lan and the others, but Gao Lan was not very easy to deal with him.

Because Gao Lan was in Huanghuaguan, he beat all the seven junior sisters of the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord into meat sauce, and it was not easy to resolve this grievance. However, the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord also knew how powerful Gao Lan was, so he naturally didn't dare to come up to find him.

After passing the registration of the Discipline Academy, he can be regarded as a disciple of Lingshan. After that, I would go to the "Gonggong Yuan" to listen to the lectures every day when I was teaching the Gong, and then go to the "Gongde Yuan" to find the meritorious elders to assign some tasks within my ability. After completing this, you will be able to record the amount of merit and exchange it for remuneration according to your needs. However, the merit hall is not open today, and you will not be able to receive merit scrolls.

The merit hall is only open three times a month during the first, middle and lower tenth of the month, and if you want to receive the merit scroll, you also need to compete fiercely. However, Gao Lan and Huang Feng Monster were obviously not worried about whether they could win the merit scroll, although the Lingshan disciples were as strong as a cloud, they were not unconfident people. Of course, the current thing is to go to the Zen Heart Monastery first to settle down, and then slowly cultivate and accumulate merit in the future.

"I hope that in the future, I can receive a merit scroll similar to the Baotang monk Xitian to learn the scriptures, and achieve the golden body of Zhengguo at one time. (To be continued.) )
