Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Five Talking about Buddha
After a while, several young men from wealthy families came in.
These people are getting more and more unbearable, and there is even a fat young man who is not only accompanied by several guards, but also surrounded by more than ten gorgeous maids. From a distance of more than ten feet, a strong fragrance of powder comes to his face.
.
After the fat man came up, he was arrogant and behaved wildly. His maids surrounded him, not shying away from the public, and their actions were very obscene.
When Li Yu saw that these people were getting more and more outrageous, he stood up and left.
This sentence was not a good one. Li Yu asked: "What's the matter?"
Feng Ziying said with a smile: "I am deeply honored to be acquainted with the Taoist priest this time. If the Taoist priest will not give up, I am willing to make friends with him."
Li Yu rolled his eyes and thought to himself that if there were no accidents, he would probably stay in Jinling forever.
I just need a local snake who is familiar with the affairs of Jinling to help me investigate.
He smiled and said: "It's rare that Brother Feng thinks highly of me, and I can't hide it from you. Now I'm staying at Qingxu Temple, but I feel a little uncomfortable."
Feng Ziying was a smart person and immediately said: "If you don't mind Taoist Master, you can stay in my house for a while. It just so happens that my old mother is also a Taoist believer."
"It's so annoying."
Feng Ziying was overjoyed. He clasped his fists and said, "Taoist master, please wait here for a moment. I'll go in and say goodbye to them."
Li Yu nodded, and Feng Ziying walked back to the restaurant. After a while, she quickly came down.
"Okay, let's go!"
Li Yu followed him and came to a courtyard. Contrary to Li Yu's expectation, this place was not very luxurious.
Feng Ziying was a little surprised and said: "My family is simple, so don't blame me, Taoist priest."
"Brother Feng is too polite."
Li Yu followed him to the courtyard. An old servant saw him coming in and said, "Master, go to the room quickly. Master, he has been waiting for you for a long time."
Feng Ziying said: "This is a friend of mine. He is a Taoist priest from Bianliang. His cultivation is unpredictable. Uncle Mo, please free up the West Courtyard and let the Taoist priest live in it."
The old servant glanced at Li Yu and when he heard that he was a Taoist priest, he did not dare to neglect him and said with a smile: "Taoist priest, please come with me."
He noticed that there were not many servants in the Feng Mansion, perhaps not as many as the maids and servants of a master in the Jia Mansion.
It seems that Feng Ziying's father came from a military career, but did not get much benefit, or he was relatively clean as an official.
He may not be involved in the business of the four major families in Jinling, otherwise just a few leaks would be enough for them to be extravagant.
Li Yu came to the west courtyard of Feng Mansion, and a maid came to help him make the bed. After she left, Li Yu took out the mirror.
Pan Jinlian's smiling face appeared inside, and Li Yu asked: "How are you today?"
Pan Jinlian raised her palms and whispered: "She has had enough of her stay and was making a fuss about leaving last night."
Li Yu said: "You comfort her and stay for a few more days until I figure things out before leaving."
Pan Jinlian pouted, rolled her eyes, and said, "I don't want to be here either. The people here are very boring and very hypocritical."
Li Yu smiled and said: "When we finish this matter, we will leave immediately, and I will reward you well then."
"real?"
"Of course."
Seeing her treacherous look, Li Yu couldn't help but feel a little funny and said, "Has anything strange happened in the Jia family recently?"
"It is said that it was because the man named Jia Baoyu dropped the jade he carried when he was born, so the house is very clean. They all said that they have not been so clean in more than ten years, and nothing has happened."
Li Yu nodded and said, "Let me know if you have anything."
Pan Jinlian held her chin, looking at her timidly with her beautiful spring eyes, her lips parted but she didn't make a sound. Li Yu knew from the shape of her lips that what she said was: Something happened, I miss you.
He coughed lightly and put away the mirror. This little girl dared to tease him while he was not around -
Tang Dynasty, Chang'an.
In Daxingshan Temple, countless eminent monks gathered together.
Among them sat a monk. He did not have a gorgeous cassock, but he had a handsome look and a superb temperament.
All the monks looked at him devoutly and listened to him opening the forum to lecture on Buddhism. Xuanzang's mouth was full of lotus flowers and his witty words were eloquent. Many monks showed understanding smiles.
Today is the third day. Master Xuanzang returned to Chang'an and held lectures on Buddhism.
Countless monks came from all over the country to participate in this grand meeting. It was also a general meeting, and this appeal could make Li Yuqian next door cry.
Xuanzang's reputation is so great that he is now the leader of Buddhism, especially Buddhism within the Six Dynasties.
Of course, most Tibetan Buddhism and Tianzhu Buddhism do not recognize him. Tibetan Buddhism, in particular, actually hates Xuanzang very much and sent people to assassinate him several times.
Of course, Master Xuanzang is not easy to kill, and he always ends in failure.
As the sun set, Xuanzang had been speaking all day, and his voice did not change at all. At the end, Xuanzang stood up, clasped his hands together, lowered his head and said, "I am the Buddha who is compassionate."
The surrounding monks all echoed, "My Buddha is compassionate."
Bursts of Sanskrit sounds soared into the sky, and everyone was bathed in the Buddha's light, with infinite joy on their faces. Listening to Master Xuanzang's talk about Buddhism was better than having spent decades meditating on it themselves.
Unlike Li Yu's heroic meeting, which was difficult and tortuous, as soon as Xuanzang said he wanted to hold a "Bodhi World", all the Buddhists responded.
With almost one sentence, he ordered the entire Buddhist sect and Buddhist temples within the Six Dynasties to be unified under the jurisdiction of the "Bodhi World".
Moreover, he copied Li Yu's grade system and divided Buddhism into seven grades:
Bhikkhu, novice, Zen master, Venerable, Arhat, Bodhisattva, Buddha
He just changed his name, but his level of strength is actually very different from Li Yu's. In fact, he used Li Yu's creativity in vain.
However, Xuanzang's move was warmly welcomed by Buddhism and became popular all of a sudden.
Comparing people with each other makes people angry
The "Bodhi World" ruled Buddhism in the Six Dynasties. This was a huge force and soon attracted Li Shimin's attention.
He first sent someone to ennoble Xuanzang and bestowed a statue of Buddha to the "Bodhi World". Then he talked secretly with Xuanzang for a day and a night.
When Xuanzang came out of the palace, Chang'an's monitoring and constraints on the "Bodhi World" ended, and this huge Buddhist headquarters officially settled in Chang'an.
No one knows what Xuanzang and Li Shimin said, which finally convinced the most powerful emperor to admit the existence of the "Bodhi World".
But the consequence of this incident is that the Bodhi World has grown unprecedentedly, and countless monks have come to seek refuge.
After Xuanzang finished speaking, he stood up. His entire body was bathed in the sunset, shrouded in golden light, and there seemed to be a halo around his head.
