Chapter 338 Mahayana and Theravada Buddhism

 He ​​just returned to the room and saw a person sitting on the leaning window of his room.

The blood-red robe fluttered slightly in the wind.

King Qin You looked at Xu Zimo quietly with a ghost head mask on.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time," he said in a hoarse voice.

"I didn't expect you to be so fast," Xu Zimo also smiled.

"When will we set off?" King Qin You asked.

"We'll go tomorrow. There's no need to rush. We'll arrive within three days," Xu Zimo said.

"How many powerful men have you prepared for the Burial Buddha Temple this time?"

"Three immortal kings, plus me," King Qin You replied calmly.

"There are three immortal kings here. It seems that your Gu Ming's strength has recovered very quickly." Xu Zimo said with a smile.

"This is the strongest power I can use, don't think about anything else," King Qin You explained quickly.

…………

The sky is gradually breaking.

The originally quiet streets gradually became lively.

The window was more than ten meters down, and the aroma of steamed buns was already drifting in through the window.

Xu Zimo finished packing and headed south with King Qin You.

Heading south from Feiyun City, passing through the territory of the Dan family, all the way to the territory controlled by the Baili family.

The Burial Buddha Temple is located there.

In fact, for most people, the Buddhist Burial Temple is relatively unfamiliar.

It is hidden in the dark, and only a few people have actually entered the Buddhist Burial Temple.

Only a few people know the entrance to the Buddhist Burial Temple.

The area around the Dan family territory seems very lively these days.

Probably the reason is also because the new Banten Conference will be held in Danta.

The Bandan Conference is known as the most prosperous event in the core area of ​​the Eastern Continent.

At that time, many alchemists from the Eastern Continent and even from other continents will visit and even participate in the competition.

This is the grand event that Emperor Dan started to hold after receiving his destiny.

It has been tens of thousands of years ago.

It is also because at every Wandan Conference there are always a few good ideas, which are eventually acquired by the Dan family.

Therefore, among the several imperial immortal sects in the Eastern Continent, the development of the Dan family relies on the Wandan Conference and is the most stable.

Xu Zimo didn't dare to be interested in this grand event. After all, alchemy didn't have much to do with him.

He and King Qin You rushed to the Buddhist Burial Temple together.

Xu Zimo rode the Dark Sky Tiger, while King Qin You walked on the air.

Two days later, the two came to a city called Lifo City.

This city is located at the foot of Wuhua Mountain and is the most famous city here.

Standing in front of the city, you can see it from all angles.

The whole city looks like a giant Buddha with hands clasped together.

…………

To be precise, this is a Buddhist city.

A city composed of believers and built by believers.

It is said that as long as you are a devout believer, you will be protected by the Buddha in the Buddha City.

Xu Zimo and King Qin You walked into the city.

Bald monks wearing monastic robes are everywhere here.

On both sides of the city's most prosperous main street, there are small Buddhist trinkets or daily necessities sold.

Amitabha is the most commonly used phrase to greet people here.

There are no inns in the city, only Buddhist temples.

For those who are in need, as long as they sincerely do good deeds, Buddha House will even provide them with free accommodation.

The whole city seemed happy and happy, and everyone was talking about Buddhism.

Promote the benefits of Buddhism and recruit new believers.

King Qin You introduced from the side: "There are no other forces in this Buddha City.

Only believers who are sincere to the Buddha.

There are just two different philosophies.”

"Two different concepts?" Xu Zimo said curiously.

"Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism," King Qin You explained plainly.

“One values ​​​​first crossing oneself, and then crossing others.

One emphasizes crossing people first, then crossing oneself.

People here only quarrel when they have different ideas."

"The limitations of thinking are too narrow," Xu Zimo said, shaking his head.

"Why not step outside Buddhism and look at something else."

"To put it bluntly, he is a selfless person," King Qin You replied.

"Buddhism embraces all things."

"Then which one do you believe in?" Xu Zimo asked with interest.

"I only respect the strong," King Qin You replied calmly.

"Buddhism cannot save me."

"Let's rest here for the night and go hiking tomorrow," Xu Zimo said.

King Qin You nodded and did not object.

The two found a Buddhist temple and opened two rooms.

By the way, I ordered some dinner downstairs.

The food here is mostly light and mainly vegetarian.

The two of them were eating when they saw the little novice monk who was serving them the meal tiptoeing over.

He was wearing a gray monk's robe, his head was shaved smoothly, and there were eight ring scars on his head.

Looking at Xu Zimo and the other two, the little novice monk asked in a gentle tone.

"You two should be from outside."

"Absolutely," Xu Zimo nodded.

"I wonder how much you two know about our Buddha City," the young novice monk asked with a smile.

"Are you interested in learning about our Mahayana Buddhism?"

Xu Zimo and Xu Zimo looked at each other, they were here to win over the believers.

"I wonder if Mahayana Buddhism can allow me to ascend to the throne of the Great Emperor?" Xu Zimo asked with a smile.

“If you don’t accumulate small steps, you can’t reach a thousand miles.

If you don't accumulate small streams, you can't form a river or a sea." The young novice clasped his hands together and said calmly.

"Buddhism is just a direction that teaches you a philosophy of life.

It's not invincible.

But as long as the donor is willing to work hard and strive towards the goal.

I believe that when the idea is clear, the donor will naturally succeed."

"You are a young novice who knows how to talk," Xu Zimo smiled and replied.

"Thank you for the compliment, donor," the little novice monk smiled modestly.

Said: "I wonder if the donor is willing to become a lay disciple of my Mahayana Buddhism?"

"What's so good about Mahayana Buddhism?" At this moment, a voice came from the door of the Buddha's house.

An old man wearing a light yellow monk's robe slowly walked in.

He glanced at Xu Zimo and the two of them, clasped his hands slightly and said "Amitabha."

Then he turned to the little novice monk aside and said with a smile: "Junior brother, you are here to confuse others again."

"Where's the talk of bewitching?" the little novice monk shook his head and said softly.

"Everything is voluntary.

Senior brother, are you envious of the grand occasion of my Mahayana Buddhism? Do you want to learn the essence?"

"Junior brother, you are too impressed," the old man in monk's robe shook his head.

“Every matter in the world must be dealt with by me first and then by others.

If you don't even understand selflessness, how can you save people?

Therefore, our Hinayana Buddhism is the most correct.

Junior brother, it’s better not to be stubborn."

Seeing the quarrel between the two, Xu Zimo shook his head helplessly.

"This donor, how about you judge our family's Dharma?"

The old man in monk's robe next to him saw Xu Zimo, his eyes lit up, and he suggested.

The young novice monk was silent for a moment and looked at Xu Zimo expectantly.

"You are like the teacup in my hand."

Xu Zimo said as he picked up the hot water next to him and poured it into the tea cup.

After filling it all the way, the water overflowed, and he continued to pour it.

No plans to stop at all.
