Wu Beiqi said: "They want to see the jade wall without characters? Why doesn't the Great Zen Temple refuse this kind of thing?"
Zong Hui sighed softly: "They came under the guise of communicating and studying Buddhism, and they also staked Japan's important treasures. If the Great Zen Temple does not dare to agree, it will definitely be ridiculed by the world's cultivators! Therefore, we can only agree."
Wu Bei became interested: "How do Japanese people want to learn about Buddhism?"
Zong Hui: "The competition is divided into four games. In each game, three people from both sides will participate. Two out of three games will be won. The losing party will hand over a treasure of the other party to the other party."
Wu Bei: "Dachan Temple has a profound foundation, so it should have a chance of winning, right?"
Zong Hui smiled bitterly: "No, there is no chance of winning! The four competitions are mantra, chanting, martial arts, and magical powers. When it comes to mantra, the Shingon sect of Japan has obtained the true transmission of Tang Mi, and our Dazen Temple is definitely no match! When it comes to martial arts,
, the other side sent out the number one young monk in Japan, Tianhai Chi. This Tianhai Chi worshiped a Bodhisattva from Xiaoxitian as his teacher, and he is so powerful that among the younger generation, no one in the Great Zen Temple can compete with him."
Wu Bei: "What about chanting sutras and supernatural powers?"
Zong Hui: "If we recite sutras, we have a 70% chance of winning. After all, there are many eminent monks with profound Buddhist teachings in Dazen Temple. But with supernatural powers, Dazen Temple is afraid that we will lose again. Over there in Japan, there is a reincarnated Bodhisattva.
The young man is said to have mastered nine magical powers, each of which has great power."
Wu Bei couldn't help frowning: "It has been more than a thousand years since the Great Zen Temple was built, but it still can't defeat a group of Japanese monks?"
Zong Hui was very embarrassed and said: "Shenyi Wu, Buddhism in Japan has a close relationship with Xiao Xitian. In comparison, Dazen Temple does not have such convenience."
Wu Bei asked: "Yanlong is a huge country with the largest number of Buddhist believers in the world. Why is Xiaoxitian not here?"
Zong Hui said: "I, Yanlong, once had a place similar to the Earthly Immortal Realm, called the Tathagata Dharma Realm. Its entrance was at the Great Leiyin Temple. But more than a hundred years ago, the Great Leiyin Temple suddenly closed for unknown reasons. My Great Leiyin Temple
The foundation of the Zen temple is within the Dharma realm, and the sudden interruption of communication between the two sides has a great impact on our great Zen temple."
Wu Bei: "What are the things being deposited in these four events in Japan, and what are the deposits in the Dazen Temple?"
Zong Hui: "After discussing the truth, what was deposited in Japan was a Buddha finger bone relic."
Wu Bei asked: "Is this Buddha bone relic very precious?"
Zong Hui said solemnly: "If there were Buddha bones in the Great Zen Temple, the atmosphere would never be comparable to what it is now!"
Wu Bei nodded: "What about the martial arts competition?"
Zong Hui: "During the martial arts competition, Japan took out a treasure called Tianxin Pearl. It is said that this pearl originally belonged to Yanlong. Back then, Japan invaded Yanlong and took this treasure from Longhu Mountain. There are
With the Tianxin Pearl, you can sense Tianxin."
Wu Bei: "In the next two games, what treasures did Japan bet on?"
"In the last two games, Japan took a woman into custody respectively." Zong Hui looked a little embarrassed.
Wu Bei was stunned: "Two women?"
Zong Hui said: "According to the Japanese monks, these two women have the blood of the sea god, and each has a special physique. If they can be married as wives and concubines and live with them for a long time, it will be of great help to their own practice."
Wu Bei was stunned, these Japanese people are really evil.
Zong Hui: "Patriarch Guanghui is now having a headache about which monk to send to the battle. If he loses three of the four competitions, the Dazen Temple must give up the wordless jade wall and let the Japanese monks study for three years."
After saying that, he looked at Wu Bei and said, "Doctor Wu, you have practiced the magical power of indestructibility. I wonder if you could pretend to be a monk from the Great Zen Temple and fight against that Tianhai idiot?"
Wu Bei looked at Zong Hui and said: "Master Zong Hui, this is a matter of your Dazen Temple. I, an outsider, shouldn't get involved, right?"
Zong Hui quickly said: "If Dr. Wu wins, the treasure will be yours!"
Wu Bei's heart moved. The Heaven's Heart Bead was very useful to him. His next step was to ask for help from heaven and man. If he could get the Heaven's Heart Bead, he would get twice the result with half the effort!
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Okay. For the sake of Master Guanghui and Master Zonghui, I will do this favor for Dazen Temple."
Zong Hui was overjoyed and said: "Doctor Wu, please come with me!"
Wu Bei followed Zong Hui to a Zen monastery. The Zen monastery was opened up into fields, and crops such as chives, garlic seedlings, and winter melons were planted. There was a wicker chair in front of the house, and an old monk in tattered clothes was lying on it.
, listening to the old-fashioned semiconductor radio produced decades ago, rocking the wicker chair, and humming opera.
Zong Hui smiled and said: "Master Liu, you cut off the hair of this great doctor Wu."
The lying old monk opened his eyes. He glanced at Wu Bei and said, "He is not a monk."
Zong Hui: "Of course he is not a monk, but he wants to pretend to be a monk."
Old monk: "As a monk, I don't lie."
Zong Hui was helpless and said: "This matter is of great importance, Master Liu, please hurry up."
The old monk smiled: "Wait a moment."
He went back to the house and took a razor, sharpened it twice on the stone in front of the door, and said, "Young man, come here, sit down."
Wu Bei was very reluctant to part with his hair. If he shaved it off, he would look ugly.
But since he wanted to help, he didn't care about this. He sat in front of the old monk. The razor was flying in the old monk's hand, and Wu Bei's hair fell down.
In less than half a minute, his head was already smooth and bright. Zong Hui took three more sticks of incense and temporarily helped Wu Bei burn three shallow scars, which were the novice vows.
Later, Zong Hui asked someone to bring a set of gray monk robes for Wu Bei to put on. In this way, Wu Bei transformed and became a monk in the Great Zen Temple.
Zong Hui smiled and said: "We will tell you then that you are a disciple of Patriarch Guanghui."
Wu Bei nodded: "Anything is fine. Where should I go now?"
Zong Hui: "Mr. Wu, after you leave this door, you will temporarily become a monk of our Great Zen Temple. Because it is the Luohan Hall that will meet this challenge, you must first go to the Luohan Hall to register and become a member of the Luohan Hall.
Warrior Monk.”
Having said this, he smiled and said: "I know you have resentment in your heart. When you arrive at Luohan Hall, you can challenge any master there. After all, if you want to participate in the martial arts competition with Japan, you must be approved by the monks in Luohan Hall."
Wu Bei's heart moved. Zong Hui's intention was obvious. He could take the opportunity to teach Master Yuan Shen a lesson!
He sneered: "This is the best!"
Later, Wu Bei followed Zong Hui to Luohan Hall.
This Luohan Hall is a large-scale building with monks' rooms, Buddhist halls, gardens, etc., and there are hundreds of monks.
At this moment, the Luohan Hall is holding an emergency meeting. Several elders of the Luohan Hall are frowning and sighing. They are about to compete with Japan in martial arts, but their Luohan Hall cannot produce decent talents!
In recent decades, there has been a gap in the martial arts talent pool in Dazen Temple, and there has been no talented monk for a long time.
Zong Hui and Wu Bei entered the hall, and he said: "Elders, this is the disciple of Patriarch Guanghui, Ji Ming!"
All the monks were surprised. Patriarch Guanghui actually accepted a disciple. You know, Guanghui is one of the three great patriarchs of the Zen Temple, and his seniority is endless. His disciples are naturally also very senior!
Ji Ming? Wu Bei doesn't dislike this Dharma name. Anyway, it's only used this time, so it doesn't matter what it is called.
