Chapter 231 The old monk in Qingliang Temple
When Li Hongxiu pulled Mu Mu into the carriage, she cried again.
Li Ye looked at her and said softly: "Sister, you are a practitioner of the Golden Core Realm. You cannot shed tears casually."
Mu Mu remained silent and cried on Li Hongxiu's shoulder, just like when she left Li Ye from Tianshan that year.
Li Ye frowned, looked at her and said, "I will stay here for at most ten days, and then I will go to Vientiane City to find you. But you just don't want to participate in the Tianjiao Competition in the Central Region. All that vanity will do you no good at all."
The gentleman waved to Li Ye from the carriage and said, "When you arrive at Vientiane City, find the Wujian Inn there and ask for news about us. Mumu, Hongxiu and I will take good care of her."
Li Hongxiu nodded and said: "We don't want it. You have to be careful. Although it has been so long, if they don't give up, they may find a way to trick you."
Li Ye said coldly: "I don't care what people want to do, as long as they dare to come, I don't care."
Hearing this, Li Hongxiu shook her head, lowered the curtain of the carriage, and ordered the driver to set off.
Just listen to the sound of horse whips and the rattling of wheels.
Tang Qiuyu and Wutong sat in the carriage and looked at Li Ye. Tang Qiuyu thought for a moment and said, "Are you sure you don't want to participate in this competition? I can sign up for you."
Li Ye shook his head gently and said: "What I do here is very important. Besides, when I go to Vientiane City, I will leave for Fangcun Mountain after seeing the Tang Dynasty. It is not suitable to participate in the competition in the Central Region."
Xia Wutong bit her lip and looked at Li Ye, thought for a while and said: "When you come to the Central Region, come to me and the master. Your master knows where we are."
Li Ye nodded and said, "Okay."
Tang Qiuyu waved his hand and said: "You can go about your business, we are about to set off." After saying that, he ordered the coachman to set off.
Looking at the carriage going away, Li Ye turned to look at Nalan Yu and said, "Brother, you should go and do your own business. You don't have to accompany me to Qingliang Temple. I know you can't stay."
Nalanyu looked at him, thought for a moment, didn't open his mouth, waved his hand and turned around to enter Wujian.
...
Li Ye spent half an hour alone, walking to the Arhat Hall of Qingliang Temple. Looking at the Arhats on the Buddhist altar, he chose a quiet corner, picked up a futon, and sat down cross-legged.
The hour has passed, and many believers have come in to worship the Buddha in the temple.
Not long after he sat down, the sound of chanting sutras suddenly sounded not far away. Some believers who walked into the Luohan Hall said, "It's already past the time of morning service, how can there be still the sound of chanting sutras?"
The sound of the sutra was not loud, but it passed through the two Buddhist halls and echoed in the Luohan Hall. If it was there or not, the sound of bells suddenly joined in, and it suddenly seemed more and more peaceful.
Two monks in the Luohan Hall chanted the Buddha's name softly, showing compassion on their faces.
One of the monks said softly: "It should be someone from a certain family in the city who came to the temple to perform rituals."
Li Ye, who was sitting cross-legged in a corner, did not make a sound, but quietly stared at the Arhats on the Buddhist platform. For a moment, a feeling of laughter and anger came to his heart, and the Arhats on the stage seemed to correspond to his expressions.
He murmured: "Interesting, when I stare at the Arhats, the Arhats are also staring at me."
He grinned at the Arhat Elephant on the Buddhist altar.
The Arhat on the Buddhist altar seemed to be smiling at him.
Li Ye lowered his head and said, "Disciple Wuchen, come to see the Arhats."
The Arhats on the Buddhist altar seemed to be saying: We have seen you.
Li Ye looked at the Arhats on the Buddhist altar, slowly closed his eyes, concentrated on breathing, and released his consciousness. At this time, his mind had integrated into the Arhats on the Buddhist altar, as if he was the one on the Buddhist altar.
All Arhats.
Silently memorize the technique of "Fuhu Luohan Fist" in your mind, and concentrate all your energy on your right hand and right arm.
The right hand is close to the right waist, the palm is facing to the left, the fingertips are moved forward, and are pushed to the lower abdomen. Then the fingertips are turned up and pushed up along the midline of the abdomen to the middle of the eyes until they are level with the top of the head.
Make a "whoosh" sound like this and punch out flatly.
He sat cross-legged on the futon without getting up, and used his mental skills to strike out the Arhat Fist one by one with both hands. In an instant, a whirlwind blew up in the Arhat Hall and turned around Li Ye's head.
The monk on duty looked at Li Ye's actions without saying a word. The two of them also sat down cross-legged and watched Li Ye's every move quietly. The two nodded in admiration from time to time, but they did not look at each other, with a look of surprise on their faces.
At this time, the believers in Luohan Hall had already left and went to the main hall to watch the Buddhist temple. Only Li Ye and the monks on duty were left.
Li Ye imitated the appearances of the various Arhats on the stage, while using the punches in his heart, and softly chanted the twelve mantras.
In an instant, Li Ye's whole body suddenly burst into golden light, spreading throughout the Luohan Hall. The majestic power of the physical Buddha Dharma of the "Shadowless Dharma Body" merged with Li Ye's majestic "Fuhuhu Luohan Fist", and a strong wind blew in the Luohan Hall.
drumming.
The prayer flags on the wall moved in the wind, and for a time the entire Arhat Hall was enveloped in golden Buddha light.
At this moment, the monk on duty who was sitting cross-legged on the ground also closed his eyes and chanted the Buddha's name softly. The Buddha's name and the twelve mantras chanted by Li Ye met in the air, blended, and then turned into streaks of Buddha's light that spread out.
Come......
At this time, the sound of Buddhas filled the main hall of the temple. There were all kinds of good men and women kneeling on the ground. In the hall, there were monks giving lectures. Behind the monks were Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
At this moment, the sound of chanting sutras in the Luohan Hall continued. Two monks on duty were kneeling on the ground. Next to them, Li Ye, who was sitting in the lotus position and had fallen into meditation. In the Luohan Hall of Nuoda, there were the sounds of Buddhas chanting sutras, and there were tigers and tigers.
Roaring dragon.
Dozens of faithful men and women kneeling in front of the Buddha had no idea what was happening in the Arhat Hall. They could neither hear nor see it at this moment. Their minds had been guided by the monks chanting sutras in the hall.
They just instinctively felt that something extremely solemn and sublime was happening in Qingliang Temple, and they just bowed down to the Buddhas in front of them again.
However, the movement in Luohan Hall still alarmed the abbot of the temple, old monk Xuanbei. He opened his eyes while practicing and looked in the direction of Luohan Hall.
The Xindao Arhat Hall has been quiet for hundreds of years. I don't know where the young monk came from but he can actually make all the Arhats on the Buddhist altar resonate.
...
Li Ye sat cross-legged on the ground and practiced for two hours, while the monk on duty stayed with him quietly for two hours.
After calming down, Li Ye opened his eyes, looked at the Arhats on the Buddhist altar, clasped his hands together, and said: "Amitabha."
Then he walked up to the two stunned monks and thanked them together: "Amitabha, I apologize for disturbing the two senior brothers Qingxiu."
The two monks clasped their hands together and said, "Where do you come from, junior brother? Why do you know Arhat Boxing?"
Li Ye thought for a while and said with a smile: "I, Wuchen, come from the Great Buddhist Temple in the Eastern Region. I studied under Master Kuchan and practiced some Buddhist techniques. Luohan Boxing was also taught by the master."
After saying that, he put the futon back in place and left the Arhat Hall with his hands behind his back.
...
"What happened in the Luohan Hall just now? How come the Buddha's light is spreading?" Xuan Bei, who came in a hurry, looked at the two monks on duty and asked softly.
"Back to the abbot, today a young master came here. It is said that he came from the Great Buddhist Temple in the East Region and practiced Arhat Boxing. When practicing in this hall, he actually resonated with the Arhats on the Buddhist altar. In addition, this young master can also recite,
Ode to the twelve-character mantra.”
Xuanbei frowned and said, "Are you sure it's not the six-character mantra? How can there be any inheritance of the twelve-character mantra in the Eastern Region?"
The monk on duty shook his head and said: "We all practice the six-character mantra, but the twelve-character mantra chanted by this young master is not completely different from the six-character mantra we practice."
Xuan Bei looked up at the Arhat on the Buddhist altar, nodded, and said, "Tell the people on duty tomorrow to let me know when this young master comes." After saying that, he walked out of the Buddhist hall with his hands behind his back.
...
The next day, Li Ye went out a little early. After having breakfast in an inn, he walked to Qingliang only half way through the morning.
When he came to our Hantang, the monk on duty had not yet arrived.
Just like yesterday, he picked up a futon and sat in the corner of the hall, looking up at the Arhat on the Buddhist altar.
It's just that this day he didn't pump his fist or recite scriptures.
He just sat there quietly, releasing his spiritual consciousness to sense the images of the Arhats on the Buddha platform.
I thought in my mind about the essence of "The Formless Dharmakaya": I have an appearance, others have an appearance, everyone has an appearance, the longevity person has an appearance, all the Buddhas and Arhats also have an appearance, but the Buddha's appearance is different from that of all living beings, and all the Buddhas and Arhats have an appearance.
leak.
However, it is rare for someone to be able to achieve the perfect appearance of all sentient beings. For example, if you practice hard to achieve the perfect appearance of all living beings, when you compare it with the Buddhas and Arhats sitting on the Buddha's platform, you are actually still flawless.
He sighed secretly, as his mind revealed that there is no time to practice and no time to enter the Tao.
Sitting quietly in front of the temple and transforming into an Arhat, he had no idea that the prayer flags on the temple were automatically moving in the absence of wind, gently swaying the pieces of flags hanging from the air, as if they were dancing elves.
While he was meditating, the white clouds above the Arhat Hall condensed into an Arhat elephant. As the breeze passed by, his face changed with different faces, either happy, sad, angry, crying, shaking his fist, or lying down.
.....
Li Ye, who was sitting in the corner, was unaware of the changes in the sky above Luohan Hall. He just sat quietly for an hour before getting up and leaving. Step by step, he walked into the stone bridge by the lake in the temple and came to the outside of the stone house on the island in the middle of the lake.
flat ground.
Taking a deep breath, he assumed the posture of an Arhat subduing a dragon, with his feet spread apart in a figure-eight shape, half squatting into a horse stance. His hands naturally drooped, and he used the mental method of "The Formless Dharmakaya" to use the power of the physical body.
He moved his whole body and threw a flat punch...
When he was practicing "Fuhuhu Luohan Fist" on the island in the middle of the lake, the Qingliang Temple was already in chaos. The monks in the temple saw all kinds of illusions in the sky above the Luohan Hall, and they all sat cross-legged in the ground and chanted sutras.
Praise the Arhats for their various wonderful phenomena.
Xuanbei also heard the news and came to the outside of Luohan Hall. He raised his head and looked at the wonderful sight in mid-air. He put his hands together in admiration and asked the monk on duty if the young monk was coming again yesterday.
The monk on duty smiled bitterly and said: "This junior brother is here, but it is an hour earlier than yesterday. When I arrived at Luohan Hall, he just left. It seems that he went to the island in the lake. On weekdays,
Outside the stone house where monks practice martial arts."
Xuanbei nodded and said, "Go and do your business, I'll go take a look." After saying that, he walked towards the lake with his hands behind his back.
Outside the stone house, Li Ye had already swung a set of Crouching Tiger Arhat Fist, causing whirlwinds to blow on the ground.
Not far away from the island in the center of the lake, Xuanbei looked at Li Ye in the whirlwind from afar, and his heart thumped. "This little man from the Great Buddhist Temple has also practiced the "Shadowless Dharma Body"? It seems that he has reached the fifth level of practice.
realm."
