Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 81: 0Bei Temple
Xumitian World Group, the Great Buddha Kingdom in the West.
Li Yuanshan, Qianbei Temple.
The brilliance of the rising sun in the early morning falls on Qianbei Temple, casting a mottled light and shadow on this ancient temple. The shadow of the bodhi tree was dancing, and a group of monks walked by knocking on wooden fish under the tree.
There is Sanskrit singing in the distance. It is the monks who are doing morning service chanting scriptures.
In front of the gate of the ancient temple, a young novice is cleaning fallen leaves in front of the gate.
The broom brushed across the ground, and the fallen leaves were flying, falling again, and they were inexhaustible. Novel/>
The little novice monk was not discouraged, he just kept sweeping like this.
A pair of walking-on-the-moon boots appeared in front of the little novice monk. The owner of the boots was wearing a pink burqa and showed an attractive face.
She looked at the rising and falling leaves with watery eyes, and thought for a moment, then said: "Why don't you sweep away the fallen leaves gently, one at a time, so that the fallen leaves will not come back again."
She did not use a positive or mocking tone to ridicule the novice for not being able to sweep the floor, but asked in a questioning manner.
The novice monk raised his head and glanced at the girl, then lowered his head and said: "I will sweep away my dust. It's none of your business."
But there is no etiquette that Buddhism should have.
The girl was not angry after hearing this, she just smiled and said: "My little master is right, little master, it's none of my business if you clean yourself up. I'm overthinking it."
After hearing this, the novice monk put away his broom and said: "The little girl is very polite, but judging from her words and demeanor, she doesn't look like a native of my country, the Great Buddha, from the outside world, right?"
The girl bowed and said: "Qixia Tang Zixi, don't you know the name of my little master?"
The novice monk smiled: "The young monk is named Jingxin. I have met the Tang Donor. The Tang Donor was so beautiful."
As a Buddhist disciple, he said that the donor was so beautiful. Even Tang Zixi was a little surprised.
But he still said: "Quiet... mind?"
"It's Jingxin! Pure and clean!" Jingxin emphasized: "Master said that my heart is always unclean and punished me to sweep the floor every day. When the ground becomes truly spotless, my heart will also be pure."
Tang Zixi was surprised: "But how can there be a truly spotless land in the world? Even if you clean it today, won't it be full of dirt again tomorrow?"
The novice monk clasped his hands together and said: "So the young monk's heart will never be pure."
Tang Zixi was stunned for a while, then said: "So that's it, the little master is not sweeping the floor, but the dust in the heart. I have learned a lesson."
Jingxin grinned: "I wonder why the donor is here?"
Tang Zixi said: "I want to ask the host about some things about your temple's past."
"Is it about the Nine Difficulties?" Jingxin said suddenly.
Tang Zixi was stunned.
Jing Xin already smiled and said: "Donor, don't be surprised. Now is the time of the Hongmeng Tribulation, and all walks of life have no time to protect themselves. At this time, people are suddenly sent to our Great Buddha Country, especially to our Qianbei Temple. I guess there is no other reason besides the Nine Difficulties. And things like this have happened several times before."
"That's it." Tang Zixi nodded: "If that's the case, then..."
Jing Xin has said: "About this time, the temple has made arrangements. Since the donor wants to know more, please come with me."
As he said that, he put down the big broom and entered the temple.
Tang Zixi followed Jingxin and asked as he walked: "By the way, speaking of it, it is the time of the Hongmeng Tribulation. Why did I see no trace of magic when I came to see the Great Buddha Kingdom in the West? Is it the Buddha? Have the powerful men of the country defeated the invading monsters?"
Jingxin replied: "The demons from the Hongmeng Realm have never invaded my Great Buddha Country."
"Oh?" Tang Zixi opened her eyes slightly: "Why is this?"
Jingxin shook his head: "The little monk doesn't know. He only knows that our Great Buddha Country has never been invaded by demons."
"Ever?" Tang Zixi chewed the word softly, and thought for a while: "Is it the past of ten thousand years, or is it the past that the existence of the Star Luo Realm relies on?"
Jingxin paused for a moment.
After a moment, he said: "This has happened for ten thousand years."
Tang Zixi took a breath.
If the Great Buddha Kingdom of Xitian has never been invaded by demons, it may only be explained by the fact that the Buddha in the Buddhist Kingdom has boundless magic power and the demons dare not invade.
But over the past ten thousand years, the meaning has been completely different.
Could it be that all this has something to do with the Nine Difficulties?
Suddenly Tang Zixi understood why in the Great Buddha Country and Qianbei Temple, there were no such things as the Nine Difficulties.
Perhaps people here also think that being able to escape from evil tribulations is related to the Nine Tribulations, right?
If this is the case, then compared to the evils Jiu Nan has done, at least on this land, he has built more fortresses.
But no one can tell whether this is actually the case.
There is one thing that Tang Zixi knows very well, that is, when Jiu Nan first entered the Demon Realm, he was just a small figure in the Purple Mansion, and he was far from being able to influence the Demon Clan's invasion plan. Even until he becomes a true immortal, he may not be qualified to let other great demon lords attack whom and who they may not attack.
Then, why did he let the Hongmeng Demon Clan not attack the Great Buddha Realm of the West for ten thousand years?
This thought flashed through Tang Zixi's mind, but she said nothing and just followed Jingxin all the way.
Through the cloister and around the main hall, Tang Zixi followed Jingxin to a monastery.
Jing Xin said: "There are all the text records about the predecessors of Jiu Nan in the house, and there are also incense couches for resting. If the donor is willing, you can read it here slowly. If the donor is used to eating, he should eat it in the temple It is also available, but you need to follow the rules of the temple. If you are not used to it, you can also go down the mountain. There are inns and shops at the foot of the mountain."
"It doesn't matter." Tang Zixi walked into the monastery and saw that it was fairly clean. There are two rooms in this monastery. The inner room is the bedroom, and the outer room is the study room. There are stacks of books on the shelves. He casually pulled out a book and read it, but it was the Milo Heart Sutra. Tang Zixi knew that the Mi Luo Heart Sutra was one of the supreme secrets of the Great Buddha Kingdom of the West. It was said that one could achieve the Bodhisattva body after practicing it, and it was a Buddhist classic. She didn't expect it to be left here like this.
However, Tang Zixi’s family background is natural, so she doesn’t need to care about this. She just puts it down and picks up another book. This time it is the Fudo Prajna Ming Wang Sutra. As the name suggests, it is a book that can directly guide the mind of the Ming Wang Dao. King Ming's status in Buddhism is equivalent to the level of Immortal. A book that can directly point to the mind of Immortal is already a treasure.
Tang Zixi was slightly surprised, how could such a thing be placed here, but she still put it down and picked up another one. This time it is simply a book of Buddhism and Taoism, which points directly to the method of becoming a Buddha, becoming an ancestor, and achieving the supreme achievement.
In the way of the mind, achieving true immortality is the highest. Beyond that, every existence must rely on self-cultivation and tempering to have a chance to break through. It is impossible to rely solely on the mind.
So this book on the true nature of Buddhism can be said to be the supreme treasure in the Dharma.
Tang Zixi's heart couldn't help but tremble.
Even if Qixia Realm already has the mental method to achieve true immortality, which is the Lian Yun Heart Sutra compiled by Tang Jie Yun Tianlan based on what he has learned, but if there is this Buddhist and Taoist Notes as a reference, it will definitely It can make the Lian Yun Heart Sutra more powerful, which will be of great help to the cultivation and improvement of cultivators in the entire Qixia world.
However, Tang Zixi still calmed down in the face of the huge temptation, and she did not forget the purpose of her trip.
Slowly putting the book down, she turned to the next one.
This time it is a Buddhist combat skill, Hongyang Vajra Fist.
Hongyang is the name of a monk. Tang Zixi has heard of it because this man has traveled to all walks of life and has made a name for himself. His self-created Hongyang Vajra Fist is so powerful that it is said that even after he was able to break mountains and rubble when he was in the heavenly state of mind, and later after he became a Buddha, the Hongyang Vajra Fist is still unstoppable and can be called a first-class combat skill.
However, Tang Zixi even put down the book of Buddhism and Taoism, so she didn't care about this combat skill. If she put it down and picked it up again, it would be another combat skill. This time, it is no longer the most powerful Buddhist boxing technique in the world, but the magical power of a goddess scattering flowers. It was a great magical power left behind by a powerful woman from the Xingluo Realm who came to the Great Buddha Kingdom in the West and challenged the Buddha, but was not defeated. She was inspired by the Buddha to be ordained. This magical power is infinitely mysterious, and it is said that it even provides a glimpse into the flower arrangement, so it is extremely valuable.
Although ikebana is a small path, it also belongs to the wood path. If you take the opportunity to understand it, you may be able to understand one of the five elements. Although it is not as good as the "Bing Zi Jue", it is still a great breakthrough.
Tang Zixi's talent time is average in other aspects of Taoism. When such a magical power suddenly appears, she can't help but be greatly moved.
However, she still shook her head and put the book down with a smile, and then said: "I came here with the intention of only dealing with the Nine Difficulties and nothing else. It is a gift from Buddhism. Zixi is very grateful, but I feel ashamed to accept it and dare not accept it."
Tang Zixi knew that on the surface, these books were placed randomly and she pulled them out at will, but in fact, the content of each book she pulled out changed with her behavior, and all had only one purpose. , just let her choose.
She didn't know what would happen if she chose to stay or read one of the books, but she believed that if this was a test, it would definitely not be a good result.
The best possibility is that she obtained a secret book, but lost the qualification to investigate the Nine Difficulties.
The worst possibility is that she can't even get the secret book.
A voice rumbled: "Donor Tang is determined and our temple respects him and will not try again."
The voice disappeared after speaking.
Tang Zixi picked up another book ~IndoMTL.com~ and found that it was no longer a magical secret book, but a Buddhist allusion, recording the historical changes of the Great Buddha Kingdom in the West over the past tens of thousands of years.
Tang Zixi then took the book and started to look through it.
Seeing her like this, the young monk Jingxin quietly retreated and returned to the door to continue waving his big broom. It's just that the broom swept out one after another, and the fallen leaves flew even more wildly. A passing monk saw it and said with a smile: "Pure your heart, your heart is not pure again."
Jingxin sighed and said with a sad face: "That female donor is so beautiful. How can I be so pure?"
"Amitabha, if you don't keep your mouth shut, I'll bite you again." The monk said hurriedly.
"How can I be unreasonable in what I say? What I say is obviously the truth." The young monk Jingxin muttered.
Seeing the monk leave, Jingxin threw away the big broom, held the back of his head and started thinking, murmuring: "The female donor is really beautiful... If I could practice a joyful meditation with her, It must be excellent."
