The day before the winter solstice, the sky was hazy all day, and finally it snowed heavily at night, and on the second day, the entire Canglang Mountain was covered with snow, but this did not affect people's enthusiasm for going up the mountain.

Master Mingyu of Fazhao Temple came as promised with dozens of disciples, followed by the newly appointed Lord Thorn Shi of Anzhou Mansion, leading more than 20 officials and wealthy squires to watch the ceremony.

After receiving Master Mingyu and all the disciples and officials, and the rich squire, Ling Cang arranged for everyone to sit down, and after a brief greeting, he announced the rules of this Taoist seminar, and ordinary villagers could only watch from afar.

The head of Ling Cang and Mingyu presided over the agreement, and the disciples discussed the subtle meanings of Taoism and Buddhism in a situation of collective debate.

The competition of magic cultivation is that the disciples and grandchildren are conducted one-on-one according to the entry time, and the comparison is what they have learned in different sects in the same time. After everyone made the rules clear, the seminar officially began.

In fact, when the head of Ling Cang chose the Taoist research conference, he was not favored by the world, because many years ago, there was a high monk who held a water and land conference in the imperial capital, participated in Zen and preached the law, and went to Tianzhu to obtain the true scriptures, which is the Mahayana teaching, which is regarded as the supreme treasure by the emperor and the people, and has the merit of driving away evil spirits and avoiding demons, bless the land, and nourish all the people.

As a local Taoism, it is declining, in addition to making people sigh, everyone doesn't know the reason, and they don't know why Buddhism is so popular, so it is rumored that Ling Cang wants to prove the Taoist principles and Taoism at this seminar. Revive the Taoist majesty.

After the debate was seated, the conference officially began.

"Amitabha!" Jing Lin, the chief disciple of Master Mingyu, first clasped his hands together and sang a Buddha horn, "Life is suffering, life is suffering, death is suffering, the cycle repeats, the cycle of life and death, the enlightened, Nirvana!"

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, as soon as Master Jinglin came on the stage, he said this hardship, that hardship, did he suffer too much to have such a body?"

"You ......!" This smile made Jing Lin's white and pure face flushed, and he couldn't hold his face in front of so many people, and he couldn't help but glare at Hao Song angrily.

"Master, monks should guard against arrogance and rashness!" Hao Song continued to tease.

"Amitabha!" Mingyu spoke up, "Master Ling Cang, today your Taoist family and my Buddhist family are discussing their respective mysteries, rather than personal attacks or scolding battles, such words, like street women, don't they ruin the reputation of the monks and make ordinary people see jokes?"

Ling Cang touched his beard and said to Hao Song sternly, "Hao Song must not be rude, today's participation in Buddhism and enlightenment is to promote the righteousness of Buddhism and Taoism in Qingyun Prefecture, and winning the debate is the right way!"

Hao Song hugged his fists and said yes, so he no longer sneered between the words, for the mastery of the Tao and the eloquence of the debate, Hao Song is indeed first-class, leading a few brothers of the Hao Zi generation to fight with each other, quoting scriptures, and several disciples of Master Mingyu are also good, in the study of Buddhism is also very transparent, the discussion between the two sides from the beginning of the topic immediately attracted everyone's attention to listen.

Taoism is reasonable.

Buddhists speak the truth.

Taoists tell their followers where the path of life comes from and how one should walk on the path of life.

Buddhists tell their followers what people should do?

Taoism believes that life needs to be positive, positive, practice the individual, conform to the adult, and become an immortal, all in the reversal of yin and yang.

Buddhists believe that life is suffering, the cycle of life and death that does not reach the end, and only by attaining nirvana can we get out of the cycle of life and death, cultivate the positive result, and become a Buddha.

The Tao is the law, cultivate the Tao and refine the pill, master the laws of the world, adapt to or break through this law, not be bound by the rules of this world, seek longevity, and enjoy leisure.

A Buddha is an enlightened being, an enlightened being, an awakened person in this world, who recognizes the nature of this world, sees through the laws, and has insight into the meaning and secrets of life.

The Buddha has to control the world, and then control the world.

And the Tao is to explore the world and pursue another world.

There was no more verbal attack on the other side, it was a matter of mixed reputation, just discussing life and death, country and family, this life and the next life, reincarnation and detachment, immortals and Buddhas, demons and demons, gods and ghosts, transcendence, redemption, etc., and this debate went on for several hours.

The new Lord Assassin took the officials, the squire kept clapping and applauding, and the viewers behind also applauded, although some people didn't know what they were talking about, but when they saw someone applauding, they just did it. Some people's life is just worry-free about food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and they can't understand that kind of big truth, and if they don't understand it, isn't it a good thing? Confusion is also a kind of way!

"Several Taoist leaders and masters have worked hard, the official Li Kun, the newly appointed assassin history, because he is also a little interested in the matter of monasticism, this seminar conference, the contemptible people have benefited a lot! It is like an enlightenment, the contemptible person is the parent official of the Anzhou Mansion, for the common people of the world, for the society of the country, can you evaluate it on your behalf?" This newly appointed assassin is actually Li Kun, the county commander of the former Ping'an County, and in just over a year, he can be promoted from the county order to the assassin history, which shows that his ability is not ordinary.

The head of Ling Cang gave a salute and said, "Master Li can visit the Xuanjian Gate and pay attention to this Buddha seminar, it is really a blessing for the common people, you are a parent official who cares for the common people in the world, and you should be able to evaluate it on behalf of the common people!"

Mingyu sang a Buddha horn and said, "Amitabha, everything is arranged by Lord Li!"

This Li Kun laughed and said, "Whether it is the Tao or the Buddha, although there are differences, the general meaning is the same, they are all for the common people in the world, the two masters are like the reincarnation of the immortal Buddha, and several high-ranking disciples are also very good, for the Tao, the Dharma has a very subtle interpretation, and the official will evaluate it as a draw from it, how about it?"

"Follow Lord Li's assessment!" Ling Cang said with Mingyu as the host.

"Okay, okay, then let's take a look at the young generation of the masters!" Master Li Kun was extremely happy, the two masters could listen to themselves. This excites him even more than being promoted to the next level, and whether his career in Anzhou will be smooth or not in the future depends on these religious people.
