Chapter 22: Controversy
Qin Chuan pleaded, "Sir, can you give it to Qin Chuan?"
Meng Wei shook his head and said, "There is no such thing as a free lunch. ”
"Since Mr. has the lost Heart Sutra, it means that Mr. is also a person with a Buddha heart, so he should dedicate his own efforts to carry forward the Buddhist family. ”
"No, no, I'm not a Buddhist, I'm an authentic Taoist sect!"
Qin Chuan was silent, as a person who had studied Buddhism for more than ten years, it was such a big test for her to put the long-lost Heart Sutra in front of her, which could only be seen in a few words.
"So, what does the gentleman need?"
"You!"
Qin Chuan said embarrassedly: "Mr. said that he laughed, since the Heart Sutra says: color is emptiness, and emptiness is color." Presumably, Mr. is not a skin-conscious person. ”
"Well, in that case, then I want something from you. ”
Qin Chuan raised his vigilance in his heart, and said lightly: "I don't know what it is?"
A suction force suddenly burst out from Meng Nao's hand, Qin Chuan stood on tiptoe and retreated sharply, drawing his sword with his right hand and slashing it, breaking the cabin into two.
"You broke my boat. ”
Hearing a whisper in his ear, Qin Chuan directly pushed the sword back with his right hand, and a sword qi erupted, only stirring up a huge wave, but it did not hit Meng Nao.
Qin Chuan looked around cautiously, not letting go of a single place, and suddenly, his left hand slapped upward, turned around, and quickly forced away to both sides.
"You, too slow. Since you don't want to give me a burden, then I'll take the sword in your hand first!"
After finishing speaking, Qin Chuan felt that his right hand was grabbed, and without looking closely, his left hand was a punch, but it was empty, and at the same time, the elbow joint of his right arm was slammed, and his fingers were numb, and the hilt of the sword fell into the hands of the enemy.
Standing on the surface of the river, looking at it carefully, Qin Chuan half-squatted on the broken sails, panting loudly, and said, "Mr. is good at martial arts!"
"Each other, each other. Meng replied, "What's the name of this sword?"
"Color. ”
Meng Xuan smiled and said: "It's related to me, the color and emptiness must be related to the Heart Sutra, and the Heart Sutra is all over the world, and I know it." ”
Qin Chuan asked: "Sir's move, I'm afraid it's immoral, and I will take action if I don't agree." ”
"What is morality? What I do is morality, and what I say is the truth!" Meng Xuan shouted, "I have taken this sword with me, and I also want what you have on your back." In exchange, the Heart Sutra will be given to you, I think you will not be reconciled, and then give you another Sutra - "The Great Day Nyorai Sutra", this Sutra was made by Shakyamuni himself, and the meaning is incomparable, and I don't know how precious it is compared to the "Heart Sutra". ”
After finishing speaking, Meng Zhi took out two volumes of the Sutra from his arms, raised his left hand, the Sutra shot out of his hand, Qin Chuan grabbed it with his right hand, and the two scrolls were in his hand, and looked down, one wrote the "Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra", and the other wrote the "Great Ri Rulai Sutra". Look at the handwriting, but the writing is not long.
"Take care of the things in your baggage for me, and I will step on the moon to get it on another day!"
Qin Chuan suddenly realized: "You already knew. ”
Meng Nao laughed.
Luoyang, Jingnian Monastery.
Qin Chuan knocked on the door, "squeak" The two vermilion lacquer doors slowly opened, and a little monk came out and saluted, "I don't know what the donor means here?"
Qin Chuan replied: "Please tell Master Kong, say that Master Cihang Jingzhai is visiting." ”
"Donor, wait a minute. ”
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps, and a short and fat monk raised his hand and came, it was one of the four King Kongs under the seat of the empty Zen master - not stupid, and said softly after seeing the concubine: "The master fairy is visiting, the Zen master is already waiting in the hall, please come with me." ”
Shi Fei Xuan nodded, and walked to the hall without being stupid.
In the center, a tall and thin monk faces the Buddha and sits cross-legged, giving people a sense of nature, which is the empty Zen master. Bu Zhi approached and said: "Zen master, the master fairy is here." ”
Likong nodded, got up and looked at Shi Fei Xuan, who had practiced "Closed Mouth Zen" for decades without speaking, Shi Fei Xuan naturally knew, and said first: "He's Bi is correct." But a few days ago, I met Meng Jiao in the middle of the road, took away the sword of Sekong, and gave me the Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra and the Great Day Nyorai Sutra, saying, 'In the future, you will come to take the peace clan.' After finishing speaking, he took out two volumes of Buddhist scriptures and handed them to Master Kong.
The empty Zen master nodded, opened the two volumes of scriptures, with the genuine product, in which the righteousness, the mystery is extremely complicated, the empty has fallen into it for a while, not obsessed with this, silently waved his hand, the master concubine made it clear, and silently withdrew.
Outside the hall door.
Not stupid: "I don't know who this monk is?"
The concubine said: "A few months ago, he returned from overseas, his martial arts are extremely high, and when I see it today, I can't be underestimated, legend has it that he is a member of the Taoist sect." ”
"Taoism?"
"I don't know but I got the news that Taoism came from Zhang Daoling, and Taoism is actually inherited by Lao Zhuang, and Mengzhi is its successor. ”
Not inquisitive: "Taoism and Taoism are not the same?"
Shi Fei Xuan wanted to explain, but the news she got was only a few words, and she couldn't say it clearly for a while, but it was not easy to refuse, so she had to speak: "It's late, Fei Xuan is a little tired, tomorrow morning, when the Zen master comes out, I will wait to explain in detail." ”
nodded without being stupid, and arranged for the concubine to go down to rest.
A few days later, in the city of Luoyang.
Meng's waist hung the color empty sword, slowly swaying in the streets, it was really prosperous, the war in the north had started, the people could be said to be living in poverty, I didn't think that in Luoyang, I could still see this scene.
"Huh?" Meng Nao suddenly saw that in the inn, there were a few people talking, but it was Li Shimin, Li Jing, Xu Ziling and others, his heart moved, turned into the alley, and after a while, a middle-aged man wearing sackcloth, with a pale face and a sickly face, and carrying a sword wrapped in linen cloth on his back, walked out and went straight to the inn.
"Little Er, serve your best wine and food here!"
"Gotcha. ”
Li Shimin and the others were talking, and when they heard this sentence, they all looked back, but it was a middle-aged man in Mai with a sword on his back, like a poor family ordering the best wine and food, and he was puzzled.
The middle-aged man also seemed to notice Li Shimin and the others, walked to the side and said, "The wind is blowing clearly, you don't know what you mean by looking at me?"
Only then did Li Shimin and others realize that they were rude, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
Feng Qingyang chuckled lightly and said, "Are you strange, why do I look poor on the outside, but I order such expensive wine and food." ”
Everyone was embarrassed and didn't say anything.
Feng Qingyang said casually: "Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon!"
Li Shimin and others clapped their hands and said, "Good poetry, good poetry." What if you don't mind sitting at the same table with me?"
Feng Qingyang said: "Okay, I have to come here for the first time and want to hear the news, then I'm welcome." ”
Everyone gathered at a table, and Xu Ziling asked, "I don't know what Mr. wants to inquire about?"
"I have a nephew named Meng Nao, who went to the Central Plains by boat a few months ago, and there has been no news, so I came to find out his whereabouts. ”
"Huh?" Everyone was shocked, this person turned out to be Uncle Meng, Xu Ziling knelt down and kowtowed at the moment, and said, "Disciple to meet Uncle Ancestor!"
Feng Qingyang exclaimed: "You are my apprentice of my nephew?"
"Exactly. ”
"Hurry up, you don't need to make this big gift, I am a free sect that advocates purity and inaction, and is most disgusted with secular etiquette. ”
Xu Ziling got up at this time.
Feng Qingyang said: "I don't know how your master has been in the past few months?"
Xu Ziling told him everything that had happened in the past few months, Feng Qingyang nodded and listened carefully, and said, "If that's the case, then I'll rest assured." After finishing speaking, you turned her head to look at Xu Ziling.
"Although I am not strict in accepting apprentices, it is not so that everyone can worship, like your master, he is the only one in this generation, and now I will test you. ”
Xu Ziling was extremely nervous for a while, and he knew the criteria for accepting apprentices from the Carefree School, but after all, he was born in a poor family, how did he learn poetry, piano and songs?
"Along the way, I saw that the Central Plains was extremely war-torn and the people were in dire straits. I ask you, why is this the world like this?"
Xu Ziling only wanted to satisfy his uncle for a while, but he didn't notice that Li Shimin and the others were still beside him, and said casually: "The monarch is mediocre, and the officials are in chaos." ”
"Then why is the monarch mediocre and the officials unrestrained?"
"The master once said: there is a lack of supervision. ”
"And who can oversee it?"
"People, water can carry a boat, or it can capsize a boat. Only by letting the people really call the shots, will the world be stable forever, otherwise it will only be stable for a while!"
When Li Shimin heard this, a hint of strange color flashed in his eyes, but there was no expression on his face.
"Good," Feng Qingyang praised, and asked, "then how do you make the people decide?"
Xu Ziling shouted: "Abolish the imperial system!"
"Not bad, not bad. Feng Qingyang smiled, "You are qualified for the time being." ”
Xu Ziling breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly found that Li Shimin and others were not angry with him, and then he realized that his remarks just now were only afraid that they would be dissatisfied, and I am afraid that in the future, he and Li Shimin will no longer be able to talk to each other like this. Bowing his head, his uncle was eating, and Xu Ziling suddenly felt his master in his heart, but he didn't dare to think about it, so he was silent.
At this time, in the inn, a young man with a delicate face walked by, sat beside everyone, looked at Li Shimin and said: "In Xia Qinchuan, I just heard what you said, I want to ask, how to make the world rule?"
The person who came was the concubine Xuan, and Dai Cihang Jingzhai gave He's Bi to those who could rule the world.
When Li Shimin heard how to govern the world, Concubine Xuan secretly praised in her heart, and Li Shimin had already been determined.
Feng Qingyang threw his chopsticks on the side and threw them on the ground, not caring about Li Shimin's face, and shouted: "What nonsense! ”
Concubine Xuan looked at the middle-aged man, the uncle of Mengjiao, and thought that Mengjiao had taken away his Sekong Sword, but I don't know what he was doing at this time?
"I don't know why Mr. said that?" Even cats have three points of temper, not to mention that Li Shimin is the second son of Li Valve, and he is also a man of the year in the world, when has he been said like this?
Feng Qingyang said angrily: "Boy, let me ask you, if your generation can do this, will your children and grandchildren do the same?"
Li Shimin said: "I don't care what will happen to future generations, but I will educate future generations on what to do, leave them an example, and try my best to make them how to govern the world, and I will strictly control my children from the system and supervise them, as long as this is the case from generation to generation, it will be stable for ten thousand years!"
Feng Qingyang smiled in vain and said, "Emperor Qin and Han Wu also thought the same way back then!"
