Pretending To Be a Holy Place, I Was Signed For a Thousand Years

Latest URL: The next day, the sky was clear.

"Daoist Qing Hui, Captain Xiahou didn't come back yesterday, I'm afraid something happened."

Yin Xue walked on the mountain road and said.

They set off early in the morning and climbed Shichen Mountain for a while, and they could already see the ancient temple gate.

"Captain Xiahou is an official, and there are black armored soldiers around here. Don't worry, he will be fine."

Zhang Ming said softly.

Although the strength of the Black Armored Army is far inferior to that of the Xiaohanshan Temple, they represent the Great Jin Dynasty, and the Xiaohanshan Temple will never break the surface with them before the end of the mountain.

clang--

There are dull bells ringing on the mountain.

Some monks shouted in unison on the top of the mountain: "Namo Amitabha Buddha! The honored guests come to the door, and the blessings and wisdom will increase!"

A yellow-robed monk flew up from the top of the mountain and flew towards Zhang Ming and others. His hands were folded, his face was poor, he was older, but his voice was loud, and it came from a distance: "Poor monk Huiji, welcome the Spiritual Pivot!" Watch Qing Hui Daochang!"

Green clouds and pine phantoms appeared on his body, connecting with the mountain scenery, he was clearly a strong man in the life-shaping state.

Huiji's high-profile welcome was not to compliment Lingshu Guan, but to... deter!

Xiaohanshan Temple is using actions to show that the monks they welcome are all strong ones, so that the Lingshu Temple can weigh whether this mountaineering discussion should be done with tails.

"Zen Master Huiji, lead the way ahead."

Zhang Ming was unmoved at all, and treated him like an ordinary monk welcoming guests.

Hui Ji frowned slightly and led the crowd up the mountain.

The old monk Xuandu and the young novice Xushen were already waiting at the door, and greeted them: "Old Na Xuandu, I have met Taoist Qing Hui. Brother Abbot is already waiting at Bodhi Cliff."

Zhang Ming nodded slightly. He had seen in the information that Bodhi Cliff was the place for debate and meditation in Xiaohanshan Temple. Legend has it that the patriarch of Xiaohanshan Temple became enlightened on the edge of the cliff.

"Master Xuandu, please lead the way!"

A group of people stepped into the temple gate,

Go through the arch of the outer courtyard and climb up to the steep mountain.

This trip up the mountain, Zhang Ming didn't bring everyone with him. Two grooms, four soldiers, and Su Tan'er, who had traces of magic skills on his body, were left in the poor town.

Soon a cliff appeared in view.

In front of the cliff is flat land, and there are two bodhi trees on both sides with luxuriant branches.

"Amitabha, Xuanci, the abbot of the old monk Xiaohanshan Temple, has been waiting for a long time for the spirit pivot to watch the Qinghui Taoist priest."

Abbot Xuanci, with white beard and white eyebrows, opened his eyes from sitting quietly.

Zhang Ming looked at him, and instantly felt that the old monk of Xiaohanshan Temple had deep eyes, as if he had an inexplicable ability to read people's hearts.

The fate sculpture in his body trembled slightly, resisting some invisible force.

"Pindao Spiritual Pivot watched the Qing emblem and met Abbot Xuanci!"

Zhang Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, bowed and said.

I saw three old monks sitting around Abbot Xuanci, they saw him looking over, put their palms together and said: "Poor monk Xuan Ji." "Poor monk Xuan Yin." "Poor monk Xuan Nian." "I have seen Daoist Qing Hui."

Zhang Ming's eyes moved slightly.

According to the information of Xiaohanshan Temple, besides Abbot Xuanci, there were thirteen eminent monks of Xuanci generation, apart from the two who died, there were five people who were suspected to be strong in the Yangshen Realm.

The three people in front of me are probably three of them.

"Daoist Qing Hui, I have already received the greeting card, since I came here to discuss the Dharma, please take a seat across from me."

Abbot Xuanci said.

They were sitting under one of the Bodhi trees, opposite the other Bodhi tree.

Zhang Ming nodded, walked across and sat down.

A little monk guided Guo Xiang, Yin Xue and others to sit on the outside to watch the ceremony.

However, this was not over yet, another group of disciples wearing lay clothes and hair went up the mountain path and sat down on the stone benches outside.

They were not quiet, whispering as they walked.

"What happened? I just saw Zen Master Huiji flying out of the mountain. Is there any distinguished guest coming?"

"I saw the Black Armored Army yesterday. They surrounded the mountain, as if they were patrolling."

"I'm afraid something has happened, don't worry, with Abbot Xuanci and other eminent monks here, let's wait and see what happens!"

"..."

Abbot Xuanci glanced at them, and introduced: "Master Qinghui, these are lay disciples sent by Dongling County to our temple. They usually chant scriptures and visit Buddhas to cultivate their sentiments, and this time they came here specially to increase their knowledge."

Zhang Ming also looked at them.

The children of these aristocratic families don't know that they have become bargaining chips for both parties.

"Who is that Taoist priest? Why are you sitting opposite?"

"How courageous! Today, the Holy Majesty worships Buddhism and restrains Taoism, yet he dares to appear in Xiaohanshan Temple openly!"

"Hey, looking at his appearance, could it be that he wants to debate the Dharma with Abbot Xuanci? He's really humiliating himself!"

"..."

They looked at Zhang Ming under the bodhi tree with disdain in their eyes.

The leading young man in Tsing Yi looked out, his eyes swept over Guo Xiang and Yin Xue, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"Where did this woman come from, so beautiful?"

he thought to himself.

A thin monkey face next to him leaned over and smiled: "What? Mr. Qi is interested? Or can I arrange someone to follow and bring it to you at night?"

Qi Ling lowered his face: "Stop talking nonsense."

But he blinked twice.

Yin Xuexiu was so sophisticated that she had already heard what the two said, so she couldn't help but look at them with disgust.

"It turns out that this person is the youngest son of the governor of Qi, and he is actually engaged to the young lady."

She unconsciously clenched the handle of the knife.

At this moment, Zhang Ming straightened his expression, and said: "Abbot Xuanci, since Pindao climbed the mountain today, he has also handed over invitations, so he won't beat around the bush and waste the time of all eminent monks."

Following his words, the eyes of Abbot Xuanci and the three eminent monks on the opposite side darkened slightly.

The battle between Buddhism and Taoism has finally begun.

The children of the aristocratic families who were watching saw that the atmosphere was not right, so they quickly shut their mouths and listened carefully.

Xuandu, Huiji and Xushen stood behind Xuanci, quietly watching.

Zhang Ming continued: "Everyone in the world knows that today's sage respects Buddhism and restrains Daoism. Pindao Tian is a gatekeeper of the Spirit Pivot. In Nanling City, he once had a dispute with Zen Master Huilun who was seated in Xiaohanshan Temple, and beheaded him by mistake. "

Snapped.

Zen Master Xuanji on the opposite side pressed his palm, and a piece of the ground collapsed, shouting: "Presumptuous!"

The children of the aristocratic families watching were even more silent.

This Taoist is really too arrogant, he even dared to go to the door to provoke someone who killed Xiaohanshan Temple!

They were a little confused: "Who is this Taoist?"

Zhang Ming looked at Zen Master Xuanji indifferently, and said with a smile: "Master, calm down, in fact, among the people killed by Pindao, there are not only Huilun, but also Xuanku and Xuannan, oh yes, there is another... …It’s called Xuan Jing.”

This sentence is truly heartbreaking.

Not only is he not afraid of killing people, but he also bullies them to come and count them.

Xuan Ji couldn't help it immediately, and shouted: "The poor monk killed you thief!"

He was just about to fly out, but Abbot Xuanci put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Amitabha, monks, guard against arrogance and impetuosity, junior brother don't need to be angry. Xuan Ku and the others can be reborn in bliss, it is kalpa and destiny."

Zhang Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the reactions of several people.

When he mentioned Xuan Jing just now, Abbot Xuan Ci's face was expressionless, but the eyes of Xuan Ji and Xuan Nian next to him obviously twitched.

It seems that this Xuan Jing who intercepted him halfway and sent him to wake up the world bell was really a bit tricky.

When welcoming the guests, it was the opponent's demonstration, and now the law discussion is opening. This is not only Zhang Ming's temptation, but also his demonstration!

"Abbot Xuanci is generous, since you have made your position clear, let's start the debate on Buddhism!"

Zhang Ming sat cross-legged on the futon, and said with a calm smile, "I am a guest from afar, why don't you ask Master Abbot to give you a topic for debate?"

Xuan Ji sat back on the spot indignantly.

Abbot Xuanci and Zhang Ming looked at each other, his white eyebrows moved slightly, and said: "Since this is the case, I will not be polite. I heard that the poor disciple Hui Lun once debated with the Taoist priest in Nanling City, and he lost a lot in the end."

"My old monk's Dharma is not much higher than his. There is really no need to argue with Daoist Qing Hui anymore."

Zhang Ming looked directly at him, interesting, not arguing about the Dharma, is he going to do it directly?

But Abbot Xuanci clasped his hands together, and continued: "The practice of the old monk is called the "Three Times Classic", which focuses on the three ways of confusion, karma, and suffering, the cause and effect of the three generations, and the cycle of three phases. Why don't you argue with Taoist Qing Hui today? This is the word cause and effect!"

Both Buddhism and Taoism have cause and effect.

Zhang Ming said with a smile: "This question is very good."

However, how to argue, the other party has not made it clear.

Abbot Xuanci raised his eyes and said: "What Taoist Master Qinghui said is very true, cause and effect in this world are all pre-determined. The so-called ten thousand dharmas arise due to karma, and are extinguished due to karma."

"The old monk believes that poverty, wealth, longevity, beauty and ugliness in this world are not predestined, but accumulated in previous lives, and the retribution of bad karma, and this cause has formed such a result in this life. What do you think?"

In short, whatever you sow, you will reap what you reap.

Many people feel that this life is very bitter, not because they were born badly, nor because they didn’t work hard enough, but because of the bad karma accumulated in previous lives, which will result in karma in this life.

Therefore, there is a theory of good people in the ten generations of Buddhism, which believes that as long as you do good deeds and accumulate virtue in the previous lives, or in this life, you can get blessings in the next life.

"What the abbot said, I don't agree with the poor Taoist!"

Zhang Ming sat down and said with a smile: "In the secular world, there are often people who say that the predecessors planted trees, and the descendants enjoy the shade. The poor Taoist thinks that the descendants do not enjoy the good fruit of the shade because of the good causes of the previous life, but because of the tree and the tree. predecessors!"

"If the predecessors hadn't planted this tree, where would the future generations enjoy the shade? Or they could enjoy the shade elsewhere, but not here."

"So this is not in the future generations, but in the predecessors."

"This is not cause and effect, but a burden!"

Having said that, he paused.

The three eminent monks of the Xuan family on the opposite side all showed surprises. What this Taoist said has gone beyond the word cause and effect.

Could it be that the cause and effect in this world cannot be explained by the word "cause and effect"?

The children of the aristocratic families who were watching also looked at each other in blank dismay.

According to the words of Buddhism, they can be born in rich and noble families in this life, and they have been well-clothed and well-fed since they were young, because they accumulated virtues in their previous lives.

However, according to what Daoist Qing Hui said, the reason why they are able to live freely in this life is because of the shadow of their ancestors!

"This... who is right and who is wrong?"

"However, when I think about it this way, the glory and wealth in my life are indeed obtained by three generations of my ancestors who followed the Jin Dynasty and worked hard to govern for three generations."

"That's not sure. If you didn't accumulate virtue in your previous life, how could you be reincarnated as your father's son?"

"..."

There was a lot of discussion.

Abbot Xuanci stared at the Taoist on the opposite side, his eyes seemed to see the original heart through his body.

"Daoist Qing Hui, according to what you said, the reincarnation in this world is not due to cause and effect, but due to burden?"

He calmly opened his mouth and asked, "Dare to ask what is a burden?"

Zhang Ming glanced at the children of the aristocratic family who were watching, his deep gaze made everyone quiet.

"The so-called ordinary people's deeds, or they have the power to do good, but abnormally get evil; or they have the power to do evil, but the opposite is good. Those who try to do good and reverse are evil, are bearing the faults of their ancestors. Those who do evil and turn good are bearing the responsibility of their ancestors. merit."

He quietly explained, "This is called the burden of a person."

"Some people enjoy the convenience of the region and enjoy the gift of ore, which is the credit of the location. Some people suffer from earthquakes and floods, and they are displaced for thousands of miles, and they are responsible for the punishment of the land. This is called the burden of the land."

Zhang Ming turned his head and looked at the sky beyond the cliff.

"In this world, there is the light of the polar region, the mountains of ice and snow, the moist rain, and the smooth weather, either for the benefit of the weather, or for the harm of natural disasters. This is called the burden of heaven."

He looked at Abbot Xuanci again.

"Buddhist cause and effect, Taoist responsibilities. The cause and effect are small, less than one person's past life, one person's confusion, karma, and suffering. The burden is greater than the three realms of heaven, earth and human. Unlimited karma, transcending reincarnation, and worldly fetters are all burdens. !"

Speaking of this, he slowly repeated: "The thought of bearing includes cause and effect, but is not limited to cause and effect. This is the principle of my Taoism!"

This discussion stunned everyone.

People live for a lifetime, so many fetters, do they inherit the karma of others, and also the karma of this world?

Not limited to one person, not for a lifetime!

However, Abbot Xuanci on the opposite side smiled instead.

For the first time, he showed a trembling smile with a white beard, clasped his palms together and said, "Amitabha, Taoist Master Qing Hui's sophistry is truly well-deserved! It's just discussing the Dharma today, the old monk said it just now, it's not for the benefit of the tongue."

Zhang Ming frowned: "Abbot Xuanci, if you don't argue, then you will fight?"

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.

This fighting method is the divine channel method of fighting.

This Taoist priest named "Qing Hui" is alone, dare to fight against this huge Xiaohanshan Temple?

"No, I don't argue with tongues, nor do I fight. Instead, I continue...debating cause and effect!"

Abbot Xuanci suddenly stood up, walked to the cliff, and waved his sleeves.

I saw a group of round bubbles slowly appearing in the dense mountain mist, like a mirror, reflecting a piece of green mountain scenery.

"The old monk just said that the exercises he practiced are called "Three Ages Classics."

Xuanci turned around, looked at Zhang Ming who was sitting quietly, and said calmly, "Daoist Qinghui, there is cause and effect in this world, you say it is a burden. Then the old monk will bet with you on the affairs of this world, and argue about it." debate.""

"Since the Taoist priest can go to Xiaohanshan Temple to discuss the Dharma, have you ever thought that I, Xiaohanshan Temple, can also go to Zhuoguang Mountain to discuss the level of Daoism with you Lingshu?"

Before the words were finished, a group of monks appeared in the reflected mountain scenery, climbing up the mountain path.

Zhang Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, the mountain scenery was very familiar, how could he not recognize the scenery in the mountain.

That reflection is impressively Zhuoguang Mountain!

And the monks...

"Master Xuan Bei's uncle!"

Xu Shen was unstable, and suddenly opened his mouth and shouted.

The team that was climbing Mount Zhuoguang was led by an old monk in brown robes, his eyebrows and beard were black and white, and there was a look of compassion between his eyebrows and eyes.

This person is none other than Zen Master Xuanbei who traveled to Beiyou County to give lectures, and then turned back halfway!

And he is also one of the few Yangshen Realm powerhouses in Xiaohanshan Temple!

"Daoist Qing Hui, you climbed the mountain because of the cause, and the law is the result. Now you talk about the law is the cause, and my brother Xuan Bei climbed the mountain, it is the result. But this brother's climbing is also the cause. I don’t know if you dare to fight with me. Take a gamble?"

It turned out that this was the method of debate that he had never stated clearly.

The benefit of talking is not as good as practicing.

And this practice is to use the survival and death of Zhuoguangshan Lingshu Temple to debate the word "cause and effect"!
