Chapter 1943 Mahayana

"steamed stuffed bun?"

The boss's mouth twitched and his tone of voice changed a bit.

Fortunately, Qin Sang was an honored guest invited by Qingyuan, otherwise it would have been difficult to endure it given his temper.

Qingyuan laughed and shook his head, not knowing what to say.

The owner was silent for a while, "The Seven Heads Banquet has a jade bag offering treasures. It uses seven kinds of rare fish that grow in the blue lake of the capital to make fish and rice, and slices the white jade bamboo shoots from the mountain into jade pieces as thin as cicada wings.

It is made into a jade bag, and then fish, rice and other ingredients are stuffed into the jade bag. It is truly a treasure among treasures. If it is not to your liking, I will make a separate staple food for you..."

A banquet of seven heads was arranged, and the host went to the kitchen to get busy.

Qin Sang didn't really want to embarrass his boss, he just wanted to delay it for a while and think about how to deal with it next.



Qin Sang himself landed somewhere and stood with his hands behind his back, looking in the distance towards Jinxian County.

His expression was extremely solemn, and he was making deductions over and over in his mind.

No matter how many times he deduces it, there is only one answer - he can't do it!

He even doubted whether the monks in the late stage of Lianxu could actually do it.

Qin Sang has never had a real head-to-head confrontation with the Xu Lian cultivator, but based on his own inference, he can estimate the approximate abilities of the Xu Lian Xu cultivator.

There will be no essential transformation until you break through the great realm.

Unless Qingyuan has special magical powers.

It's a pity that Lin Baoshan's cultivation level is too low, and there is a huge gap between him and Qingyuan. It is impossible to judge anything more based on this one shot.

It would be really scary if Qingyuan could do this when facing the cultivator of Transformation God. Anyone who performs Taoist magic in front of him should be cautious.



Zuixiang Tower.

Qin Sang decided to wait and see what happened and see what Qingyuan's purpose was.

Before the main meal, cold dishes are served, all of which are precious ingredients rarely seen by ordinary people. The tea is also made from Yanguo tribute tea.

Qin Sangping dismissed the maid and asked Yulang to serve tea and water. Tao Qian also helped.

Qingyuan took a sip of tea and looked out the window. The houses stretched all the way to the base of the city wall.

The street below is bustling with people.

There were the cries of vendors, the laughter of children, New Year greetings to each other, and even the sounds of quarrels.

The sound of firecrackers, the sound of gongs and drums, the thump of rattles...

After Lin Baoshan left, Qin Sang removed the ban, and all the sounds poured into the private room, making it very lively.

"It's time for the world to celebrate."

Qingyuan seemed to be touched and sighed softly, "When the Taoist priest comes down the mountain, do you also feel that the mountain is too deserted?"

"We as Taoists must endure loneliness. There is another reason for the poor Taoist to go down the mountain, and it has not been long."

Qin Sang told the truth, but he concealed key information.

He turned to look at Qingyuan, "Fellow Taoist, have you been traveling around?"

"That's right, I have a good appetite. The soil and water support the customs. No matter how much I see, I will always encounter surprises."

Qingyuan smiled slightly, then stopped smiling, "It's a pity that not every place is as prosperous as the Yan Kingdom, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Even within the Yan Kingdom, there is not only joy, there are always joys and sorrows, sorrow and rain in the world."

"Is it just the human world? The sea of ​​suffering is vast, how many people can cross it?"

Since Qingyuan was so talkative, Qin Sang also put away his distracting thoughts and agreed.

This emotion comes from the bottom of my heart.

If you can escape the sea of ​​suffering by ascending to immortality, look at the entire world, how many people have succeeded in ascending?

Every realm is a difficulty, blocking countless people from the door.

"You and I are better than those people."

Qingyuan pointed at Qin Sang, then at himself, then suddenly turned his head and looked at Yu Lang and Tao Yi who were listening quietly.

"You are all scholars, studying the articles of sages and sages. The world often talks about the way of humanity, the way of humanity, but what exactly is the way of human beings?"

Yulang and Tao Qi didn't expect Qingyuan to order them, and they were both stunned.

At this moment, they felt an inexplicable pressure, even worse than when they were called by the Master, and they couldn't help but sit upright.

Yulang frowned deeply and fell into deep thought.

Tao Qi waited for a while, but seeing that his companion was silent, he boldly replied: "Father and son are related, monarch and ministers are righteous, husband and wife are distinguished, elders and young are orderly, and friends have trust."

Qingyuan said 'hmm': "This can be called the way of human relations, and it can serve the country."

Tao Qi didn't wait for the praise, so he couldn't help but scratch his head, pondered for a while, and then recited: "In the journey of the great road, the world is for the public, select the virtuous and capable, be trustworthy and cultivate harmony. Old people do not only kiss their relatives, nor do they only have children.

, so that the old will have their end, the strong will be useful, the young will be able to grow, and the widowed, widowed, lonely and disabled will all be provided for..."

Qingyuan smiled and said nothing, and looked at Yulang, "The Taoist priest seems to have a different view?"

Yulang looked at his master and then at his friends around him.

In this room, there is only one mortal, Tao Qi.

He hesitated for a moment and did not answer. Instead, he asked a question: "Mortals can only be willing to be fish and meat?"

Tao Li said that if there is no external intervention, nature will be the most ideal world that people can imagine.

But there are not only human beings in the world, but also immortals, gods and demons.

Mortals without extraordinary strength are like pigs and dogs, who can be slaughtered at will.

Even if the mortal world really achieves the universal unity mentioned by the sages, it will be like a flower in the mirror or the moon in the water without being able to protect itself.

For example, in Jinxian County, without the protection of ghosts and gods such as Yu Chenghuang, would the city be so peaceful and peaceful today?

Can this kind of humanity be considered a great way?

Tao Qi looked at Yulang blankly, a little confused. He could not understand the meaning of this question.

But Qingyuan's eyes lit up and he laughed, "It's not easy to think of this at such a young age, and I see that you have thought about it seriously. The Taoist priest has taught his disciples well. This question is in line with the principles of Mahayana and Hinayana in the world.

Argument."

At this point, Qingyuan suddenly stopped talking.

Then, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

"Come in," Qingyuan said.

A man dressed as an entourage gently opened the door and bowed to the chairperson, "I have met you two gentlemen."

Then he turned to look at Tao Qian, "Master, it's getting late and it's time to leave. Master asked me to call you down."

"I……"

Tao Qi looked reluctant. Not only did he not want to be separated from his friends, he also wanted to hear what this gentleman had to say.

His intuition told him that he, like Taoist Master Qingfeng, was an expert.

The attendant didn't even blink, and urged: "Master, I am waiting for you downstairs."

"well!"

Tao Qian couldn't help it. He stood up with a sigh and held Yulang's hand tightly. "Yulang, you must come to the capital to find me in the future!"

Then he bowed to Qin Sang and Qing Yuan, and reluctantly left with his entourage.

"Mahayana, Hinayana..."

The original deity and the incarnation in Zuixianglou were both a little distracted at this moment, repeating these two words in their hearts.

Faintly, he seemed to have caught something.

"This Mahayana is not that Mahayana, but there should be some origins."

Qingyuan glanced at Qin Sang and continued, "The Hinayana and the Mahayana have different pursuits, and there is no distinction between superiority and inferiority. Generally speaking, the Hinayana saves oneself, and the Mahayana saves others!"

Save yourself!

Save people!

It was as if a bolt of lightning flashed across Qin Sang's mind, instantly illuminating many of his past doubts.

Isn't it true that the way of Hinayana is to transform one's own body and cultivate to the extreme to become an immortal and attain the Tao, to ascend to transcendence?

What is the ultimate of the Mahayana path?

There are not only humans in this world, but also demons, witches, sentient beings, and even the entire world.

Could it be that you want to share this world with me?

"Shinto……"

Qin Sang murmured.

He has always had doubts about Shinto.

In particular, he knows the origin of Shinto and may have connections with Taoism.

Back then, why did some people in the Taoist court convert to Shintoism? What kind of Taoism did they rely on?

Shinto practice, relying on incense offerings, is obviously contrary to the immortal way that Qin Sang has always known.

Immortal cultivation pursues the goal of ascending to immortality.

But what about Shinto?

If a Shinto monk ascends by himself, but cannot bring the mortals who believe in him to the fairy world, even if he does not directly cut off his faith, I am afraid that changes will easily occur in the lower world.

Unless the fairy world and the lower world can travel freely.

Moreover, the more followers a Shinto monk has, the more entanglements he has, so how can he transcend them?

It turns out that there is still a Mahayana path in this world!

"Shinto can be called Mahayana, but in some people's opinion, now that Shinto has evolved to this day, some Shinto monks are biased and only regard humanity as the foundation of Shinto, which cannot be regarded as the orthodoxy of humanity. Mahayana is the way to the world, or to cultivate merit.

Either cultivate holy virtues, or cultivate merit, or accumulate negative virtues... It is based on the human way. When I travel around the world, I also see some signs. Some are even inspired by the divine way, or have the royal way, or the holy way, or practice various things.

We can look forward to the future. Perhaps one day, when hundreds of flowers bloom and the great avenues contend, we can solve the little Taoist's questions."

Qingyuan talks eloquently.

Qin Sang could not interrupt, nor did he want to interrupt. He just wanted Qingyuan to continue talking.

Rejoice when you hear the word!

Qin Sang feels exactly like this now.

This fateful relationship happened suddenly and unprepared.

It seems absurd to meet someone from the other side and hear the truth from a stranger, which makes people worry about whether there might be some trap.

However, Qin Sang could tell in his own mind that he had vague insights before, but it was not systematic.

Qingyuan's discussion was exactly what he thought and was more comprehensive.

It not only solved many of Qin Sang's doubts.

Even after hearing these words, Qin Sang was vaguely touched by his understanding of his own practice.

Yulang's realm is not high enough and he cannot comprehend too many profound meanings. At the moment, he is still thinking about his own problems.

Hearing these words, his brows were still furrowed.

How could his thoughts be hidden from the eyes of these two people?

"The little Taoist priest seems a little unwilling. Regardless of the divine way, the royal way, or the holy way, mortals have to depend on others and cannot truly control their own destiny, right?"

Qingyuan smiled slightly, "You only see practitioners as swordsmen and mortals as fish and meat. Don't you see that there is also strength and oppression among practitioners and mortals? I will tell the story between the Yin family lady and the ghosts and gods of Jinxian County.

In the story, what can they do to me? If everyone could practice cultivation, wouldn’t the Qi Refining monks become the mortals they are now, and would the world be able to bear it? If you don’t see the locusts passing by, not a single blade of grass will be left behind!”

Qin Sang also looked at his disciple and said in a deep voice: "Have you forgotten the Master's words? People have no ambition and will not be established, but they should not talk too much and aim too high."

"Yes, there is a saying in the mortal world: if you are not in your position, you will not seek political power. If you want to change the world, well... at least catch up with your master first."

Qingyuan drank the water in the cup and picked up the teapot.

"Disciple, I would like to learn from you," Yulang woke up from his dream, quickly took the teapot and filled it up for Qingyuan and his master.

Tea gurgling.

His mind seemed to have calmed down, and he sat down upright, no longer frowning.

Qin Sang and Qing Yuan continued the previous topic.

"In the world of spiritual practice, the debate about Hinayana and Mahayana has gradually become more and more intense, and Buddhism is particularly fierce. However, there are exceptions, such as the Taoist Danding lineage. Although they practice Hinayana Taoism, they have the magnanimity of Mahayana!"

Qingyuan showed admiration on his face.

Qin Sang's heart moved, but he couldn't hold it back and asked, "What's the explanation for this?"

Qingyuan picked up the folding fan in his hand and drew a big circle in the void.

"In the vast world, the Five Elements aura is everywhere. Cultivation through understanding the Five Elements can be said to be the easiest compared to other ways.

"After entering the road, building a bypass is equivalent to building a bridge over the chasm. Although this bridge leads to other directions, walking on land is undoubtedly much easier than flying directly across the chasm.

"It is rumored that this bridge is derived from the Taoist Danding lineage!

“At the beginning, the Taoist sect combined the five elements and created the golden elixir method, which pointed directly at the great road. Later, it spread the Taoist teachings to the world.

"Since then, human cultivation seems to have found a foundation. No matter what sect or sect, you must first practice the Five Elements Dharma to enter the door of cultivation, and then gradually clarify the path and pursue your own way. It can be called the general outline of all methods!

"The great prosperity of the human race and the overwhelming influence of thousands of other races are due to the Taoist sect's indispensable contribution!

"The Five Elements Spiritual Roots have also become the most important method for identifying human talent.

"The cultivation realm of the Danding lineage, including Qi refining, foundation building, golden elixir and even Mahayana, has also become popular in the world and is becoming more and more perfect.

"Every time you cross a realm, it is accompanied by a transformation. The regulations are clear and convincing, and are now regarded as standards by the world.

“It can be seen that when the Danding Sect named the last realm ‘Mahayana’, it was not done randomly!

"Cultivation of the Tao can save oneself, and Taoism can save others. What a merit!"

These words deeply shocked Qin Sang.

He had read Taoist scriptures in the Fulu world and had seen some records about the Danding lineage. He knew that the Danding sect and the Fulu sect were once known as the two most important sects in Taoism.

Since there were not many classics, Qin Sang could only look at the flowers in the fog, guessing that the Danding sect may have declined later, or there may have been a dispute with the Fulu sect and they parted ways.

When the Fu Lu Sect was at its peak, its strength was astonishing.

But Qin Sang did not expect that the achievements of the Danding Sect were no less than those of the later Fulu Sect!

Nowadays, most monks have entered the Immortal Sect by relying on the Five Elements, and they all have to thank the Dao Sect!

"The food and drinks are here!"

There were shouts from outside the private room.

The waiter quickly came to the door, knocked twice, and pushed the door open, holding a tray in his hand.

There is a plate of exquisite dishes that can be called works of art placed on the tray. They are steaming hot and exude a rich aroma.

In an instant, the room was filled with fragrance.

The color, flavor and aroma are all good and will whet your appetite.

With a smile on his face, the waiter said, "First course, Danfeng welcomes the spring!"

Along with this dish is a jug of wine, "This is the finest wine to drunken the spring breeze. Please use it with caution, our guests."

The waiter bowed slightly and exited the private room.

Qingyuan put down the folding fan and looked at Qin Sang.

"If the Danding lineage is like this, what must the Fulu lineage, which was known as the Mahayana Taoist sect, look like!"

"I've always been looking forward to it!"
