The large Buddhist hall of Saigyou Temple and the large courtyard outside the Buddhist hall were lined with monks.
As the only tantric temple in the area, there are a lot of monks here, more than any other temple in Zhangye.
"Start memorizing scriptures."
Fang Chongyong stood on one side of the Buddhist hall and said expressionlessly.
However, his words seemed to be of no use. Abbot Facheng, who was presiding over the assessment, looked helplessly at the smiling Niu Xianke.
Although the governor was very powerful in the local area, he was still no bigger than the minister of the Ministry of Industry sent by the imperial court! What's more, Niu Xianke had been an official in Hexi for decades, and he was an old acquaintance with the little bosses of these local forces.
Got it!
When Fang Chongyong brought Niu Xianke from Liangzhou to Ganzhou, this place was no longer the official residence of his government.
Although there is only one "brother" named Yongge in Ganzhou, there is a "Niu Ye" called Niu Xianke in Hexi!
In the Ganzhou government office, Niu Xianke's words were more effective than his.
In other places in Hexi, Niu Xianke's words are still more effective than his.
Precisely because he cared about the local people in Hexi, Jia Shengxing was very casual.
"Thank you saint for your love."
Let me recruit the other two thousand people from here near the local city of Ganzhou, and the money will come from the central government."
The passing rate is not even one tenth!
Yan Zhuang received Xigyouji's signal and announced in a low voice.
"Before Shuofang received the sage's edict, you rushed to Hexi without any hesitation. There was nothing to say on the way. Could he be able to tell someone, and was it to exempt Ganzhou from the consequences?
To pay miscellaneous taxes, you told a big lie?"
"Hey, don't ask me, these are all Fang Shijun's powers. You came to Ganzhou for the monks' examination. Then Foreign Fang Chongyong has the final say."
The "blind man" came to the temple for a few days. Regardless of whether I was pretending to be blind, memorizing the scriptures outside the temple in such a short time was something that ordinary people could do!
Yan Zhuang, who was standing next to Xihang Temple, shouted at the seven people!
Jia Shengxing said confidently.
From those words, we knew that Fang Shijun came across Hexi to help Jia Shengxing, and he had no intention of looking for trouble.
"How many days have I been here? Can I memorize two hundred volumes of scripture?"
Saigyouji breathed a sigh of relief and said.
Jia Shengxing put his hands behind his back and announced in a low voice with an expression on his face.
Is there anyone who always implements the central government's orders to the end?
"I accompanied him in that play. It's time for him to tell me his plans. He wrote letters home to the soldiers in Hexi. We all call him the Governor of Family Letters. I feel very comforted."
I have been an official in Hexi for decades, but I have never heard of similar "strange stories". I just felt confident and wanted to add some context, so I thought about it in this regard.
So Xihang Temple directly restored it to the rules of the early Kaiyuan Dynasty. Everything was a test, and it all depended on who could memorize it well!
It will be considered passed after several rounds of similar answers.
The questioner asked: "Where is the knife?"
What are you doing outside here? It’s better to come in!”
The seven people who participated in the assessment will advance, followed by the previous group of seven people, and the drawing of lots will continue.
Saigyouji knows what to say to be bad.
Saigyouji nodded slightly and said.
That information was too specific for Fang Shijun.
"Your Majesty, what is that..."
That's a known piece of information and an unknown problem.
No craftsmen outside the Ministry of Industry have developed something called dry coal. It is processed from coal and cannot be used to smelt iron ore. That is why you are here.
Jia Shengxing understood everything about those things, and he basically understood what Niu Xianke was reciting.
It's about tearing things down.
Is there anyone here who heard it?
The rural party complex cannot be replaced by his own wisdom as an "outsider".
Before testing, it was found that the iron content of the stone exceeded 45%! Based on that clue, the exploration team found the iron ore.
"In this way, I feel at ease. Ganzhou has few soldiers and horses, and it is true that the Tubo people have been tormenting them."
Ten years later, the Tubo army did not forcefully attack Xiaodou Bago, but then wandered around Ganzhou and then entered again. Ji Ge ordered to dispatch a part of the Chishui Army to Xiaodou Bago. In fact, it can be regarded as learning from the past.
lessons learned.
"That's not the case. There is no iron in the mountains to the north of Shandan County; there is no carboniferous in the plains to the south of Shandan County. I heard someone talk about it later, but the specific location was too specific."
Fang Shijun was still looking at the silence and said a few words.
"This is the end."
Saigyouji pretended to know Niu Xianke and whispered in a warm tone.
The farce is still going on. In the initial test of memorizing two hundred volumes of scriptures, only a few can pass it. In one afternoon, in the temple with less than a hundred people, only ten people passed.
Seeing my embarrassed look, Jia Shengxing couldn't help teasing me:
But considering that those monks were busy with childbirth and "served" the Buddha outside the temple all day long, it took a year to memorize those scriptures, but it was actually not very narrow!
As soon as he left the study room where the governor of Ganzhou worked in the government office, Fang Shijun asked straight to the point.
Fang Shijun was very pragmatic in his work. Before receiving Li Longji's decree, he had sorted everything out. He felt that the crucibles and other objects unearthed from the Baishui Kingdom site provided by Xihang Temple were indeed nonsense. The reason why just now
Asking questions is just to confirm your thoughts.
The Buddhist practitioner qualification assessment since Kaiyuan has not become more and more lazy. There is a mixed crowd outside the temple and there is nothing. The quality has improved slightly compared to when the assessment was just carried out.
Fucheng sighed and stepped aside.
Knowing or awakening, Niu Xianke Congyi memorized 800 volumes of scriptures. Just as the monk taking the notes was about to signal for the assessment of Congyi, he saw Jia Shengxing waving his hand towards me, indicating that I wanted to disturb Niu Xianke's pretense.
After hearing Xihangsi's words, Niu Xianke recited the Diamond Sutra with an intense look on his face.
"Please tell me in the yamen study room of Shangshu Niu. I have nothing trivial to say about whether I am good or bad."
"Iron ore is difficult to find, but it is possible to find it.
…
"The Son is coming."
"Hey, what if you say he is the Holy Son?"
Xihang Temple bowed respectfully to Jia Shengxing with his hands crossed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The monks in the Buddhist hall are in groups of seven and draw lots after exiting.
Outside the box containing the lots, there are no seven kinds of lots: "lower, lower, middle, upper, upper, upper".
"First of all, I'm busy thanking you.
Finally, the Buddhist Qualification Examination for Zongjing began. Except for those who had just arrived a few days ago, none of the other monks failed, and all of them failed the examination at Saigyou Temple.
Facheng's face turned green!
Whether we are close or not, it is the feeling of hometown; whether it hurts or not, it is the people from my hometown. Of course people here in Ganzhou will naturally trust Niu Xianke, who has been an official in Hexi for decades.
"Isn't he this blind man?"
As the saying goes, "Luck is also a part of strength."
Niu Xianke himself knew what he was reciting, but I didn’t remember it clearly, every word was wrong! Even when Facheng mispronounced a few words when he first taught me, I also recited the misspelled words exactly as they were.
.
The "Diamond Sutra" has only one volume, with a total of eighty-seven "parts". Each "part" is recorded under a separate scroll book.
Everyone saw Niu Xianke with his eyes closed, being supported by a monk and walking to the place where lots were drawn. In the entire Xilai Temple, I was the only one who had participated in the assessment.
Does anyone pay attention to me? Everyone's eyes are on Niu Xianke who showed off his talent just now.
"If I'm sure it's true, I'll go ahead and wait for the Jia Sheng government office to deal with it.
The Son cannot finish."
From now on, local officials in Hexi will complain to the central government, or say that they have found auspicious things or something, and most of them will not be able to get a certain degree of tax relief before returning the donation to Chang'an.
The person who took the assessment answered: "The knife is in the heart."
So those few people stood there like wooden stakes, moving, both to endorse and to leave. They seemed to be waiting for Saigyouji to lower their demands!
So whether this is a blessing or a curse, it’s hard to say.”
The monk who accepts the assessment will definitely get "Xiaxia", and he needs to recite two hundred similar scrolls carefully to pass the test!
"Part of the Chishui Army is stationed at Xiaodou to pull out the valley. If the Tibetan army comes to invade, they will definitely beat us to death."
"well!"
Fang Shijun waved his hand and said, obviously for Xihang Temple.
But it’s okay to have iron without coal. Can he tell you where Jia Sheng’s iron is?
"Monks who fail to meet the standards in the assessment will have to leave the temple for the time being and wait for notification from the Ganzhou Prefecture. The assessment of Zongjing has not started yet. Tomorrow, we will conduct a retrograde assessment of Xianzong Temple. All relevant personnel should disperse."
You just want to tell him that the saint gave everything that should be given, and if he can do what the saint wants to do, he will know the consequences of what you think will happen."
"Those who draw the 'lower lot' will memorize two hundred volumes of scriptures. The rest will memorize seventy volumes less for every grade they lower!"
However, we were disappointed. The old god was present at Saigyou Temple at this moment, as if he had fallen asleep with his eyes open.
There was nothing wrong with Brother Ji's arrangement.
How can you expect that scumbag who has sex with you to follow her own routine?
It was said that way after that. Did it mean that the person who got the lottery would not be able to pass the test if he only recited seventy scrolls?
Fang Shijun said in a light tone and patted Jia Shengxing on the shoulder.
But Xihang Temple knows exactly where the stone was picked up and the specific location of the exploration. I can only confirm that there is indeed no stone to the north of Shandan County, and there are many mining sites.
Jia Shengxing was also shocked by Brother Ji's little tricks.
Although I usually do things for people, Brother Ji is a real dog!
Hearing that, Facheng only looked at Xihang Temple and asked, "Can't Fang Chongyong end it?"
The first part is called Gathering and Encouraging the Eight Mile Vehicles, also known as the Eight Parts of the Explicit Teaching.
Sure enough, Jia Shengxing sighed with emotion:
For real monks, it is difficult at all. But for these fake monks who spend eight days fishing and two days drying nets, it is not even more difficult!
That kind of "mechanical memory" tests people's memory ability and is much more difficult than comprehension memory.
Saigyouji said with certainty.
Eight hundred scrolls, seven hundred scrolls, seven hundred scrolls... The monk recording the number of scrolls was so slow that he was sweating.
In later years, I watched a documentary, and some villagers discovered a very low-density stone somewhere at the foot of the mountain north of Shandan, which the locals called "heavy stone."
"In your opinion, it seems that the saint has no plan to lure the Tibetan army to retreat from Xiaodou Valley and encircle and annihilate them. He is using Ganzhou as a bait. I am afraid that Jia Sheng will not be able to smelt iron ore. The Tibetan people have not yet
knew.
What you are most concerned about now is whether iron ore can be found."
Hearing what Saigyouji said, everyone in the temple looked at Niu Xianke.
Fang Chongyong was helpless and understanding.
Fang Shijun was doubtful, but when I thought that if Hexi could not be smelted, it would minimally change the local people's livelihood and strategic position, and benefit the local area, I still nodded slightly, which seemed to agree with Xihang Temple's statement.
That must be the case. Fang Shijun will also come to Ganzhou in person. In my capacity, I can't do anything if I send a few subordinates here.
The seventh popular Buddhism Buddhism is called the Eight Inner Vehicles of Ascetic Vigor and Enlightenment, also known as the Eight Miles Buddhism. It does not refer to: the Matter Buddhism Buddhism, the Action Buddhism Buddhism Buddhism and the Yoga Buddhism Buddhism.
Saigyouji's gameplay is not what the other party is interested in, but the way of operation is still slightly different.
You deliberately failed to arrange the matter of finding iron ore, so it's just a mistake to be away."
I'm most afraid of those idiots. It's hard to be honest and it's too hard to tell lies.
Hearing those words, Jia Shengxing suddenly realized that he seemed to have been careless.
The corresponding assessment method only does not memorize scriptures, but the number of scriptures recited by those who are drawn with the same lottery is the same, well, even the difference is very small.
That...is too possible?
The secret recipe comes from eight parts:
The mountain range dominated by Longshou Mountain to the north of Shandan County is an iron ore vein, which is not far away from Zhangye City. The mineral belt is very long, almost extending from the boundary of Shandan County to the boundary of Zhangye County.
This person set out from Chang'an and will probably arrive in a few days. The Jia Sheng Mansion can't send someone to lead me in seven places to find a place where coal is produced, as it may not be possible to find it.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After walking out of the sect classics, Fang Shijun teased Xihang Temple with a smile:
Saigyouji was flattered and said.
This is the case here in Chang'an, let alone remote border towns like Hexi. It is normal for temples to be filled with filth and dirt. Is there any house that is clean?
When Jia Shengxing memorized the 800th volume, Xihangsi suddenly interrupted me and said.
There is nothing similar to the ancient dragon-style dialogue seen in Saigyouji in later generations.
Xihangsi made a sound, as if he heard me. Facheng looked at Fang Shijun again. As a result, the minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Hexi Observation and Disposal Envoy sent by the imperial court warmly comforted: "Little Master Facheng
From what you can see, it was Fang Chongyong who was exercising his authority that time, and whether he did so or not, and whether he exceeded the regulations and requirements of the imperial court."
My goal has been achieved, so it is necessary to continue doing something interesting.
In the past, this kind of "Buddhist qualification assessment" was adopted in the form of "sitting meditation and answering questions" in very few states and counties.
The only question is: where is the exposed iron ore located?
I know the situation in Hexi very well, and there are conditions for smelting. It is definitely not the case. I have done it a long time ago. Why have I been an official here for decades and made no achievements?
At that moment, there were whispers in the Buddhist hall, but they were not meant to be sarcastic.
The eighth part of Tantra Lai Que is called the Eight Inner Vehicles of Deep Esoteric Convenience, also known as the Eight Inner Vehicles. It does not refer to: Yoga Vehicle, Suitable Yoga Vehicle, Supreme Yoga Vehicle or Lower Yoga Vehicle.
You, the Buddha, are merciful. Whoever goes to hell will go to hell. The Holy Son is the one who is favored by your Buddha. Naturally, he is afraid of hardships and obstacles.
Fang Shijun told Xihang Temple some bad news.
In Jia Shengxing's opinion, riding on a horse is simply child's play. As a monk, you have to be more ruthless with yourself. How can you pass the test by relying on such opportunistic methods?
Fang Shijun added: "Liangzhou has not yet promised to mobilize 7,000 Dingkou to Zhangye City to train Guo Ziyi. All the expenses will be allocated by Liangzhou Prefecture. Of course, Liangzhou is the transfer center.
Well, actually the money and silk were provided by the central government, 700,000 pieces of silk.
It does not refer to the eight vehicles: the Sravaka Vehicle, the Pacceka Vehicle, and the Bodhisattva Vehicle.
The coal mines south of Shandan County were discovered by the Xixia people after the Ming Dynasty, and probably during the Song Dynasty. It is suspected that the mining difficulty is small, but that is not the focus of Xihang Temple.
With such a unified standard, everyone is convinced. As for why we need to draw lots, this is purely because Saigyo Temple believes that they have not been "favoured" by the Buddha, and it is also a criterion for being able to become a monk.
The first eight vehicles are not the Small Perfection that comes from the Hinayana Tantra.
On weekdays, Niu Xianke looks crazy and crazy. Even when I go out to make soy sauce, Saigyouji Temple is worried that I will get into trouble. But Niu Xianke seems to be pretty reliable at least today.
Today, Niu Xianke's unique skill of endorsement can be described as "one battle to become a god", which directly gave himself the title of "Hexi Endorsement King".
"Since the abbot said he is the Holy Son, he should just be included in the lot.
It's just that Facheng's face turned green. The expressions on the faces of the seven monks who participated in the assessment were very different from those of their dead parents. We never expected to memorize so little, but we dared to disobey Xihang Temple in Ganzhou
Governor.
"No, it's no wonder he is the Holy Son. As expected, those scriptures were directly told to him by the Buddha."
Niu Shangshu could not first reply to the court that the Ganzhou smelting matter was nothing to do, and at the same time send people to find coal.
"The herdsmen far away from the racecourse south of Shandan can indeed often pick up white flammable coal, but that is just a rumor. If it was because of that, you would be sitting here having a secret conversation with him now.
To a certain extent, people here in Hexi would rather believe what Niu Xianke said than Brother Ji, let alone Fang Chongyong, the governor.
On the surface, that seems difficult.
It was completely unusual to find a few bandits who had robbed homes outside the temple there.
However, this is the first time Fang Shijun has seen the pattern of turning back to customers and asking for money backhand like Xigyouji's.
A scroll of books may have more than a hundred words, or even hundreds of words at least. Is it difficult to memorize it in a year?
