Chapter 827 Buddha sees a bowl of water and forty-eight thousand insects
Today's four great leaders of the righteous path are Qiankunzi, the leader of the Xuantian Sect, Yujizi, the leader of the Cangyun Sect, Guan Shaoqin, the leader of the Piaomiao Pavilion, and the last one is Master Kongyuan, the abbot of Kasyapa Temple.
As the head of the four great divine monks of Kasyapa Temple today, Master Kongyuan's status in the world can be said to be extraordinary. He is the kind of master that mortals will kneel down to worship when they see him.
Ye Xiaochuan and others were all juniors of Cangyun Sect, so they naturally did not dare to neglect the etiquette at all. When they walked into the main hall, everyone straightened their clothes and straightened their hair. They were very happy just now.
All expressions disappeared at this moment, and his face was solemn, so as not to lose etiquette.
Walking into the main hall, I saw three people wearing redbud cassocks sitting cross-legged on the futons of the Mahavira Hall. Facing the gate, behind them was the tall golden body of Buddha. On both sides were the golden bodies of Manjushri and Samantabhadra. On both sides of the huge hall
, there are also many golden figures of Arhats holding knives, forks and sticks. Some Arhats have ferocious expressions, like ghosts from hell, which is intimidating.
A group of people all bowed to the ground, and Du Chun said: "Junior Cangyun Sect disciple Du Chun, see Master Kongyuan, Master Kongwu, and Master Kongjian."
All the sects of Zhengdao have the same spirit, and those of the same generation can be called masters and brothers, so Du Chun called Kong Yuan, Kong Wu, and Kong Jian the three uncles, which is not wrong.
At this moment, in the Main Hall, except Master Kongming, the other three of the four great monks are here.
Master Kong Yuan clasped his hands together, nodded slightly, and said: "Everyone has come a long way and the temple is simple. Please forgive me for any slights."
Everyone quickly said: "Master, you're welcome."
Master Kong Yuan asked about the status of Yu Jizi and others who had just been separated for five days, and Du Chun answered them one by one. In front of these three divine monks, no one dared to be presumptuous, even Ye Xiaochuan lowered his head.
Jiekong seemed to have thought of something and walked to Master Kongyuan and whispered a few words. Master Kongyuan was stunned and glanced at Ye Xiaochuan and Yun Qiyou.
Then he said to Jiekong: "Jiekong, please make arrangements to let all the apprentices and nephews stay in Mount Xumi for a few more days. Don't neglect it."
Jie Kong clasped his hands together and said, "Yes, Master."
Everyone stood up to bid farewell to the three masters. Zhu Changshui and others kept their heads lowered. When they came out, they realized that they had not had time to take a look at the decorations in the main hall. They beat their feet and chests and shouted, "What a pity!"
As soon as he came out, he found that two people were missing. Yang Shijiu asked curiously: "Where are the younger senior brother and senior sister Yun?"
Everyone looked around, and sure enough they didn't see Ye Xiaochuan and Yun Qiyou. At this time, Jiekong came out of the Main Hall and said, "Don't worry, everyone. The master has something to say to Donor Ye and Donor Yun. Please go to the wing first."
Bar."
Although everyone didn't understand the meaning, they thought it was nothing serious. They just left Ye Xiaochuan and Yun Qiyou alone, which made everyone feel a little amused.
In the Main Hall, there are only five people left at this moment, namely the three great divine monks, Ye Xiaochuan and Yun Qiyou.
Master Kongyuan looked at the two young people in front of him with a smile and said: "Two donors, Jie Kong and Lao Na just said that they are very interested in the grotto of the living beings in our temple. It seems that the two donors have discovered the grotto."
The two stone sculptures inside are almost identical to the two of you."
Ye Xiaochuan was slightly startled and couldn't help but glance at Yun Qiyou beside him. He saw that Yun Qiyou's face was also full of surprise and confusion.
After a while, Ye Xiaochuan finally said: "Master, please clarify."
Master Kongyuan said: "Do you know the origins of the edgeless swords you are carrying and the Chenchen Sword?"
"As expected."
Ye Xiaochuan murmured secretly in his heart. It seemed that the people who knew about the curse between Zhan Chen and Wu Feng were not the two of them plus Xuan Ying. The Buddhist sect also knew about it.
Master Kongjian on the side said: "Ten years ago, I went to Cangyunmen to watch the young disciples of your sect fight, and realized that the sword in the hands of the donor Ye was the magic weapon Wufeng that had been lost to the world for more than six thousand years. This sword
Divine Sword and Zhan Chen in the hands of Donor Yun are a pair of swords with deep quarrels and deep grievances. As the last heirs of these two swords, you two must also be very aware of the curse between the two swords.
, this time Northern Xinjiang may also have something to do with the twin swords."
Ye Xiaochuan didn't expect that these masters would know about such a secret thing, and couldn't help but change his expression.
He said: "Master Mingjian, I wonder where the master learned about it? I thought that the only people who knew the secret of these two swords were me and Senior Sister Yun."
Master Kong Yuan and the other three looked at each other, and then they all smiled.
Master Kong Yuan said: "The secret of these two swords has been lost in the world for many years. Naturally, Lao Na and others don't know about it. However, Wu Feng was born ten years ago, which still alarmed some people, including a person from our temple.
The old senior who had been in seclusion for many years, Lao Na and others also heard what the old senior said, and then they knew that there was a subtle connection between the two swords of Wu Feng and Zhan Chen. According to what the old senior said, the inscriptions on the swords were
, it is the Ghost Cloud Text that has been lost for many years in Southern Xinjiang. The only person who can decipher the Ghost Cloud Text now is probably the high priest of the Elf Tribe in Northern Xinjiang. That old senior had expected that you two would definitely come here ten years ago.
You will definitely discover the secrets in the grotto of all sentient beings.”
Yun Qiyou suddenly said: "I wonder if the old man that the master is talking about is the Wuxiang Divine Monk of your sect?"
There was no surprise among the three masters. They all nodded slightly, acknowledging Yun Qiyou's guess.
Yun Qiyou said: "I wonder if the Wuxiang Divine Monk has anything to advise us two?"
Master Kongwu laughed and said to Kongyuan: "Senior brother, you have been waiting for the messenger for ten years. Today, you have completed your merits. Please tell the two little donors."
Kong Yuan nodded and said: "Uncle Wuxiang Master indeed has something to say. Let me tell you two. There are only ten words: Buddha sees a bowl of water, forty-eight thousand insects. Amitabha."
Ye Xiaochuan and Yun Qiyou were both stunned. How could the Wuxiang Divine Monk imitate others in playing riddles?
He said: "Master, this junior is stupid and what is the meaning of these words of the formless monk?"
Master Kongyuan shook his head and said: "This statement is a Zen saying from my Buddhist school. Lao Na was also quite confused at the time, but Master Wuxiang said that he wanted to resolve the 9900-year-old grudge between Wufeng and Zhanchen.
You must start with this sentence. If you are really a person who is destined to be in trouble, you will understand its meaning."
Ye Xiaochuan asked some more about the double swords. It turned out that the three masters didn't know much. When he asked about the stone carvings in the All Living Beings Grotto, the answer he got was similar to what Jiekong said. The stone carvings came from a place in the back mountain of Mount Wutai.
It was copied from the cliff carvings.
When Ye Xiaochuan asked Jie Kong what he said before about the text on the stone carvings on Mount Wutai, Master Kongyuan still said the same thing: "Buddha sees a bowl of water, and there are forty-eight thousand insects."
It was only then that Ye Xiaochuan and Yun Qiyou figured out that this sentence was not what Master Wuxiang wanted to convey, and that these ten words should be the words originally engraved on the cliff of Mount Wutai.
