Master Xuanlong stood aside and felt embarrassed after hearing Xiao Chu's words. Could it be that he had to give his disciples some benefits?
You should know that with Master Xuanlong's Buddhist attainments, as long as you speak out and intend to accept another disciple, you may be able to queue up to the capital with your disciple openly.
However, the little guy Xiao Chu actually asked him what the benefits were?
Why does it seem like I have to accept this disciple?
Then Master Xuanlong thought about it and it seemed that this was true. He really fell in love with Xiao Chu's talent. After all, with this little guy's talent, I think there will be a bright future in the future.
As for such a disciple with development potential, I believe anyone would be willing to take him to his disciple.
Although Master Xuanlong is a monk and all four elements are empty, even Master Xuanlong cannot refuse when facing such a potential disciple.
After a moment, Master Xuanlong coughed dryly and said, "You little guy is a little too arrogant."
Xiao Chu curled his lips helplessly, it wasn't that I had to take you as my teacher, it was that you had to accept it.
Then Xiao Chu laughed at Master Xuanlong and said, "Master, since I have let me join you, of course I can't be too shabby, right?"
Master Xuanlong couldn't smile bitterly. Why did he feel shabby when he joined my disciple?
At this time, Xiao Chu looked like he was not in a hurry at all. It doesn’t matter whether he was a disciple or not. His current idea is to try his best to gain more benefits for himself. Haha, at least, let Master Xuanlong teach his true skills
.
Seeing Xiao Chuli standing there, as if he was thinking about something, Master Xuanlong smiled and said helplessly: "Little guy, tell me, how can you not be shabby?"
After hearing this, Xiao Chu felt that the matter was a little bit difficult and quickly continued, "Master, since that's the case, I'm not polite."
Master Xuanlong nodded, waiting for Xiao Chu's later words.
"First, I will be your lay disciple. You cannot ask me to be a monk in the future. Second, you must do your best to ask me to find out about the capital!" Xiao Chu smiled and looked at Master Xuanlong and nodded slowly.
, said.
After hearing Xiao Chu's words, Master Xuanlong thought about it, then nodded and said, "This is not difficult."
However? Xiao Chu then continued: "The third and most important point is that you should teach me more about work? Of course, it is not the kind of fancy fists like Bo Ruozhang? I want to learn the kind of fighting against others
Martial arts!”
Xiao Chu's face was full of a smug smile and he stared at Master Xuanlong.
However? Master Xuanlong's expression was a bit unnatural. You should know that the master accepted disciples but the master asked the students for what they wanted. Where did the disciples ask the master in turn?
Seeing Master Xuanlong's face gloomy and gloomy? Xiao Chu continued, "Of course? Master, if I worship you as my teacher, I will serve you well in the future and respect you."
After hearing this, Master Xuanlong's expression eased a little, and his expression that looked at Xiao Chu also calmed down? He said, "Little guy, you really have it."
Xiao Chu laughed, "So, do you agree?"
Master Xuanlong stretched helplessly and said, "There is no way, who made me look down on you so much? Well, the master's ceremony will be officially held tomorrow."
Xiao Chu nodded, "Okay, master, from tomorrow onwards, you will send someone to help me find out about the news about the capital every day."
Master Xuanlong tapped Xiao Chu's head lightly, and then said, "Is he still called Master?"
This time it was Xiao Chu's turn to embarrass him, so he had to say awkwardly to the master.
Just after the two of them finished talking about it, a little monk suddenly ran over from outside and came in a panic in the direction of the two.
"What's the matter? I'm so panicked?" asked Master Xuanlong.
Xiao Chu also stared at the man with his eyes. Seeing him panting, he thought something must have happened.
"Report to the abbot, there are many guests coming to the lobby. Judging from their aggressive appearance, it seems that the visitors are not good." The little shaman quickly said to Master Xuanlong.
Master Xuanlong also nodded and said, "I understand, you go back to the main hall first."
Then Master Xuanlong slowly walked towards the lobby, as if he was going to see what was going on.
Xiao Chu had nothing to do, so he naturally followed Master Xuanlong. He had nothing to do anyway, so it was a good thing to be able to watch the excitement.
In the lobby, the person who received the visitor was Master Xuanlong's junior brother, Master Xuanyu.
The visitor also came from the temple around the capital, hosted by Fahua Temple and Zen Master Zhiguang.
Master Xuanlong walked into the lobby and said, "Amitabha, it turns out that he is Zen Master Zhiguang from Fahua Temple. I don't know how to come to Bi Temple from afar, but what advice do you have?"
Xiao Chu followed behind and saw the Zen Master Zhiguang, and felt the other party’s fierce momentum.
In fact, the Fairy Temple and Fahua Temple are both the oldest temples near the capital and are also quite famous around them. However, the name of the Fairy Temple is vaguely above the Fahua Temple, which makes Master Zhiguang of Fahua Temple
Very dissatisfied. He came to the Fairy Temple many times to suppress the reputation of the Fairy Temple in the name of communication, but every time he was cleverly resolved by the Fairy Temple.
I think this time Master Zhiguang came here for this reason.
Master Zhiguang turned around, looked at Master Xuanlong, chanted the Buddha's name and said, "Amitabha, there is nothing special about me coming here, but people all say that the fairy temple is full of monks, which makes me envious.
So I came here without hesitation, hoping to study and exchange Buddhist principles with you to express my admiration and let me study hard. I wonder if Master Xuanlong is willing to give me advice."
Master Xuanlong smiled and said slowly: "The master has been given a high-ranking monk. I am a small temple. How can I get a master in the study of Buddhist principles? As for learning, there is no way to talk about it. Even if it is learning, it should be.
The whole temple is full of learning from the master!”
Master Xuanlong's words were extremely modest, and obviously he had no intention of competing with Master Zhiguang.
Xiao Chu was very interested in watching it. When Master Zhiguang said that he was here to ruin the situation. Master Xuanlong was even capable of this, and he was indeed not upset.
After hearing this, Master Zhiguang smiled and said, "Master Xuanlong is polite. Who knows that Master Xuanlong is a Buddhist master with the reputation of being far and near. Could it be that he will not communicate and debate with us?"
Facing Master Zhiguang's aggressiveness, Master Xuanlong did not show any anger, but said slowly without panic: "The outsider is not concerned about these things, as for debate, it is even more necessary.
, everyone has different understandings of Buddhist principles, and debate is just about both sides expressing their own opinions.”
Hearing this, Master Zhiguang quickly spoke and said, "Haha, although his understanding is different, the Buddhist principles are different. Communicating them will also help you to better practice Zen Buddhism in the future! Since Master Xuanlong doesn't want to teach you
, Then let the disciples communicate with each other, Master Xuanlong is not afraid of losing, right?”
Master Xuanlong shook his head indifferently, "Whether you lose or win, it is the right way for monks to maintain their true hearts."
After hearing Master Xuanlong's words, Master Zhiguang's face was slightly changed, and then he turned his eyes to Master Xuanyu, as if he was waiting for Master Xuanyu's intention.
Master Xuanyu looked towards the abbot. His eyes might not be sitting on the cushion, as if he had entered a meditation. He thought he did not want to participate in such fearless arguments.
However, Master Xuanyu couldn't bear it. You have to know that others have bullied them. If they keep avoiding them, they will become more aggressive. Outsiders will think that they and others really don't have much knowledge and dare not respond.
Then, Master Xuanyu said, "Since that's the case, let the disciples communicate with each other and learn from each other's understanding of Buddhist principles."
After hearing this, Master Zhiguang nodded, "Since Master Xuanyu has something to say, then let's communicate. Jueyuan, Jueqing, Juezhu, you three come out to learn from the masters of the Fairy Temple.
”
"Let's go far, go sky, and go wild, you three will communicate with the monks from Fahua Temple." Master Xuanyu said slowly.
Xiao Chu looked behind and rolled his eyes at Master Zhiguang. He was obviously here to smash the scene, but he still wanted his apprentice to learn from others. If he really wanted to learn, he would just come to the Fairy Temple directly.
, Where can I use it so troublesome?
Then, everyone in the lobby focused on the six people on both sides. They knew very well that the success or failure of this debate on Buddhist principles would directly affect the reputation of the temple. If they lost, they would spread it.
It will definitely make people laugh.
The first one to come forward was the monk named Jueyuan. He walked up and said, "Amitabha, the little monk has been greeted. I have heard that the Fairy Temple is the largest temple near the capital. Many of the masters in the temple are Buddhist teachings.
He is profound and also the disciples under Master Xuanlong are even more profound in Buddhism. It is a great honor to be lucky enough to have the honor of asking for advice and discussing today."
Xingyuan walked forward, performed a Buddha ceremony and then slowly said, "Master Jueyuan is serious. The Buddha ceremony is in his heart, and the Buddha ceremony is also in his heart. How can we discuss it? Let's study the Buddha ceremony together.
If you are arguing with the winner, there is no need for this.”
Xiao Chu stood aside, listening to Xingyuan's words, and felt a little admiring. It seemed that this monk Xingyuan had obtained the true teachings of Master Xuanlong and was very frank about these false names.
"Master Xingyuan's words are wrong. Although worshiping Buddha is in his heart, the Buddhist rituals are understood. Without discussing or debating, how can you have a deeper understanding of Buddhist rituals?" Jueyuan said slowly.
Xingyuan continued to say, "There are different personal opportunities, so naturally the understanding of Buddhist rituals is different. If everyone is required to be the same, wouldn't everyone become true Buddhas?"
After hearing this, Jue Yuan frowned, and then continued to say, "Buddhist emphasizes the equality of sentient beings. Since it is equality of sentient beings, why are there differences between abbot and a novice monk? It can be seen that it is still very necessary to discuss and learn Buddhist principles.
Master Xingyuan wants to avoid it everywhere, and he may make some unknown people know that the Buddhist practice of the Fairy Temple is not as good as that of the Fahua Temple. If this is passed on, wouldn’t it damage the reputation of the Fairy Temple?"
However, without taking Xingyuan to speak here, Xingkong, who was standing aside, couldn't sit still, so he quickly stood up and said slowly to Master Jueyuan: "The little monk Xingkong is a disciple under Master Xuanlong. I saw him.
The master's agility and change of ambition must be due to the profound Buddhist teachings. I wish to listen to the master's great views."
Jueyuan heard that someone finally responded to the challenge at the Fairy Temple, so he paced back and forth for a few steps, and then said, "Haha, the little monk has something to ask Master Xingkong for advice. Does Master Xingkong usually enjoy meditation?"
Xingyuan recited the Buddha's name and said slowly: "Although the little monk's qualifications are dull, he also practiced Zen and realized the truth under the guidance of his master every day, in order to gain something."
Master Jueyuan heard this and continued to ask, "How dare you ask Master Xingkong how to practice Zen every day?"
He didn't think much about Xingkong, and directly replied: "Sit in meditation and practice meditation."
After the words came, Master Jueyuan smiled boldly in front of everyone and said, "If meditation can achieve the effect of meditation, then all the people who are doing it will sit down, wouldn't they all become Buddhas?"
As soon as this statement came out, the person in the direction of the Fairy Temple changed his expression. During this debate, it was obvious that Master Xingkong was at a disadvantage and was trapped by Master Jueyuan without realizing it.
Xiao Chu also sighed from the side that this person, Jueyuan, has some ability and is the best in sophistry.
Xingkong stood there and wanted to refute, but he really couldn't find a suitable reason, so he had to keep silent.
With the spike condition, Jueyuan turned his goal to Master Xingyi and asked, "How do Master Xingyi practice meditation in his usual way?"
After hearing this, Xingyi also stood up and gave a Buddha ceremony to everyone, and then slowly said: "Amitabha, the Buddha is in his heart. Everything is meditation. If you close the door and sweep the floor, you can get the Buddha's rituals.
, after being baptized by great wisdom, over time, the spiritual platform will naturally become more and more profound in Buddhism.”
After hearing Master Xingyi's words, everyone in the fairy temple in the field gave him a breath. There seemed to be no loophole in Xingyi's answer. Even the so-called Jueyuan wanted to find fault, it seemed that there was no
What loopholes can be exploited?
Xiao Chu stood aside and felt something was wrong. When he saw the smile on Monk Jueyuan's face, he felt that he would definitely have a backhand.
Just as Xiao Chu was concentrating on thinking, the Master Jueyuan stood up here, smiled slowly at Master Xingyi, and then asked slowly: "Amitabha, Master Xingyi, Buddhism is pure.
Since the earth is a pure land, how can dust come from? Why should we sweep it again? Since it is an empty gate, where do we need you to close it?"
After hearing this, all the monks in the Fairy Temple looked extremely ugly. These words were very tricky, and for a moment, the atmosphere in the venue became dull.
