Chapter 325
(In the new week, Yuyu begs everyone to support the red ticket! Sail your head and thank you!)
On the sand slope, Luo Wanxiang sat on a corpse, drinking wildly without any image. He squeezed a drop of cowhide water bag before he was discarded. Then, he found a piece of dry cake and started eating roughly.
"How did you get this kind of virtue?" Tang Cheng was extremely funny. This person could be said to be his registered disciple. Tang Cheng once taught him the Sampan Temple of Counting the Sampan Temple and the Sampan Temple of Bujing. Unexpectedly, when they met today, they looked like this.
Luo Wanxiang ignored the blood on his hands and licked the bread crumbs, and then said embarrassedly: "Master, after we retreated from the Tonggute Desert that day, I have been waiting for you on the edge of the desert, but there has been no news about you for two consecutive months. There is no gold produced in the Tonggute Desert, and the Feiying Gang cannot maintain it. The disciple dismissed the Feiying Gang and practiced alone."
"I once heard from people that the big ones are hidden in the court, the small ones are hidden in the city, and the famous ones are hidden in the desert. Isn't this a search for an official to live in seclusion and practice."
Tang Cheng smiled teasingly and asked, "Is that so? Then why are these people trying to surround you and kill you again, without any mercy."
Luo Wanxiang touched his dirty face and felt dirty, and lamented: "It's all because of the disciple who is too handsome!"
It turned out that Luo Wanxiang applied for a guardian in a noble official in Loulan. Originally, with his iron-winged eagle's strength, it was not easy to be a guardian. The only thing that Luo Wanxiang had a wild charm, which made the wife of the official family fall in love with him. The two got together after a while.
As the saying goes, when people walk by the river, how can they not get wet their feet?
After the incident was exposed, the wife of the official family was executed immediately, and Luo Wanxiang was also sent by a master to chase after him for thousands of miles. If it weren't for Luo Wanxiang's iron-winged flying eagle, he would have been captured back to Loulan and skinned.
As for practice, Luo Wanxiang has only been caring for the romantic and happy life with the beautiful woman for the past year, but still stayed in the view of counting breaths. If it were Tang Cheng's past character, Luo Wanxiang had long been abandoned. Now, the stimulation of the three demons' suicide on Tang Cheng is still there, which makes him softer. It has to be said that Luo Wanxiang is indeed lucky.
"Come on, you'll practice with me. It just so happens that I'm missing a servant who serves tea and water!" Luo Wanxiang tried to behave in every way. It was because of this that he said overjoyed: "Get orders! Master!"
Tang Cheng pointed to a guy who looked like a lama and asked, "What is the origin of this lama?" Luo Wanxiang was very angry when he saw this person and said, "This guy is the lackey of the dog official. It is said that he is a holy monk from Ziguang Temple. The disciples don't know whether it is true or not, but this person's subordinates are really hot. If he hadn't intervened, the disciple would not have been chased so embarrassedly."
Ziguang Temple? Tangcheng thought something. This is really a familiar temple. In the Tonggut Desert, it was the monk from Ziguang Temple who plundered the robes of the Great Sun Tathagata. As a result, the whole group was destroyed and the masters were wiped out.
Perhaps, now is the best time to enter Ziguang Temple. Let me also find a host. This is really a dream in life. Tang Cheng thought about it like this and smiled.
As for this lama, his hands and feet were sore and weak when he was suppressed by Tang Cheng's momentum as soon as he came up. Then Guo Zhen took action and stabbed him with a sword to make him feel cold. In terms of strength, it is probably the level of the Qi Refining Period when he first entered the world of cultivation.
“Where is Tsun Temple?”
Facing Tangcheng's question, the Iron-winged Eagle cheered up and replied: "Tiguang Temple is the place where the nobles of Loulan worship Buddha. I have been there a few times. I'll lead the way, Master!"
In Luo Wanxiang's view, Tang Cheng might want to avenge him. Luo Wanxiang's strength is extremely low and he has no way to discover the horror of Ziguang Temple. You must know that the temple also has its own masters, but they were all killed by Ba Huiming.
Guo Zhen doesn’t care where he goes. As long as there is a place to practice and someone can give him guidance, that’s enough!
The three of them walked together and drove the horses to the road. However, the horses were too busy before, and they were already a little exhausted and were extremely slow. However, none of the three of them had any urgent matters, so they sat on the saddle and let them move forward slowly.
The bandits of Luowanxiang were used to doing horses. They did not discard the extra horses, but led them into a bunch. They only disposed of the horses until they encountered an oasis and replaced them with a lot of silver to buy food, dry food tents and other items.
As a veteran in the desert, Luo Wanxiang handled all the chores in an orderly manner, which made Tang Cheng and Guo Zhen feel at home, as if coming to this desert was just a hike outside Chang'an City.
Guo Zhen is a person who is determined to waste time. He will never forget the humiliating scene of the Wutai Mountains. If he cannot obtain stronger power, then any kind of thing will happen constantly.
No matter what the situation is, Guo Zhen can enter into meditation and practice, which makes Tang Cheng stunned. This simply breaks Tang Cheng's understanding of practice.
Luo Wanxiang didn't know how powerful it was, but he also understood that Guo Zhen was an extremely amazing guy, so he was very attentive. Soon, they saw the outline of Loulan.
If you have seen Chang'an, there will be no city in the world.
In the Middle Earth continent, there is no city that can be compared with Chang'an. The majesty of watching the world is by no means a bluff. This Loulan City is also a famous city in the Western Regions, and its trade is extremely prosperous. However, compared with Chang'an, it is as ridiculous as a market. However, building a city in the desert is different from the Yellow River. There is no bluestone, no clay, and only endless yellow sand.
This Loulan City is made of yellow sand, supplemented by white ash and glutinous rice juice. It is extremely solid and is one of the rare heroic cities in the Western Regions. Outside Loulan City is a small river, which is the lifeline of the entire Loulan City. The sides of the river are green and lush with water and grass. No one knows where the source of this small river is. This is part of the underground river in the entire Western Regions, which appears on the surface because of the low terrain.
After replenishing drinking water by the river, the three of them continued to drive their horses. Instead of entering the city, they passed by, thinking about the mountains northwest of Loulan City to rush there.
The Ziguang Mountains are actually just a hundred feet high and low, not steep or famous, but the mountains in the Western Regions are mostly like this, not only Loulan.
Ziguang Temple was built along the mountain, on the hillside. No one understood why Ziguang Temple was built here, because there was no sweet well water, no crops to grow, and only purple-red rocks.
But because of this, the lamas at Ziguang Temple have received greater respect from the world. The monks here are all real monks. Only they can survive without relying on food and drinking water. This is actually a misunderstanding. Only by advancing to the Arhat Fruit can monks fast and live forever.
Unlike the Middle Earth, in the Western Regions, practicing to become a Buddha is deeply rooted in people's hearts. On the roadside, you can always see some ragged Hu people in Tangcheng. Whether they are elderly or children, they are chanting anything when they have something to do, and they can always see the prayer drums in their hands constantly rotating. What they are chanting is Om Mani Pame Hum, the six-character mantra, and the six-character mantra carved on the prayer drums of silver or gold.
The six-syllable mantra, also known as the six-syllable mantra, is: Om Mani Bame Hum.
The six-character mantras in the Western Regions are the most widely circulated. In the legend, the six-character mantras are infinite and supreme, and contain great power, great wisdom and great compassion in the universe.
According to legend, these six-character mantras are also the subtle original heart of Guanyin Bodhisattva. A long time ago, Guanyin Bodhisattva himself practiced and became a Buddha by chanting this mantra. The Buddha is called the Tathagata of the Dharma.
The legendary six-character mantra has subtle and incredible merits, and also has infinite Samadhi method. All Vajra Guardians and the Eight Tribes of the Heavenly Deity and Dragons like to support them.
All living beings in the Western Regions even believe that long reciting the Six-Syllable Mantra can realize the original Bodhicitta and realize the purity of the body, eliminate troubles and know the emptiness of appearance, eliminate all defilements, possess all merits, and be able to get rid of habits, destroy troubles, eliminate self-attachment, realize the true nature, develop joy, and achieve the pure fruit.
Because of this, in the place where mortals in the Western Regions live, on the Mani piles beside the road, the flakes of the mani are carved with six-character mantras. The Mani flags on the roof are also written with six-character mantras, and the Mani wheels on both sides of the doorway are also carved with six-character mantras. In short, some Hu people have been chanting the six-character mantras all their lives, and they believe that this can give them better results in the next life.
However, in fact, the truth is just a meaningless sound made by the Buddha or yogi with extremely high cultivation when practicing. After being sorted out by Tantric monks, the truth is found.
These six sons’ mantras do have some effect, but they are not as preached by Tantric monks, as they are fully merits, deteriorate afflictions, eliminate self-attachment, etc.
In fact, the function of the six-character mantra is to make these Hu people completely depend on Tantric Buddhism. Through this small six-character mantra, the huge Western Regions were splashed into the water run by Tantric Buddhism and could not be inserted into the needle, which was a huge profit.
This is not the first time that Tangcheng has come to the Western Regions, but this is the first time that he has entered the life of ordinary Hu people and the first time he has discovered the power of Tantric Buddhism.
All these discoveries made Tang Cheng frightened. Speaking of which, the Pure Land Sect’s Buddhist chanting Zen is very similar to this, but, in terms of actual results, the effect is far different, it is simply a small witch and has no comparison. The Buddhists in Middle Earth, whether it is Zen or Pure Land Sect, have no soil to survive in the Western Regions!
As the horse's hooves flew, the three of them quickly rushed to the Ziguang Mountains. Luo Wanxiang waved his horse's whip and pointed to the temple built on the hillside not far away, saying, "Master, that's where!"
(Note: The host is the abbot. The abbot is the one who has established abbot in the forest to keep his Dharma permanently and never destroyed. The Dharma is the way of the great sage. Precepts, concentration and wisdom are the foundation of the Dharma. Those who have the monastic community hold the Dharma. The main thing is to establish the matter and the matter is to govern, and the foundation is to strengthen. Therefore, the abbot has the most important relationship. This word is a unique word in Zen. Tantra should have another name, so it can be found in the swimmers and fish. If you know, you can inform us in the book review area and change it again. Thank you!)
