The old monk from Hanshan Temple said a seemingly powerful Buddhist saying to break the situation, but he was defeated in an instant by a slap from the middle-aged monk.
Not only was he slapped by the middle-aged monk, but he was also slapped by himself.
One moment he was saying "no joy, no anger", and the next moment he was glaring at people, contradicting himself, and this was the defeat of an old monk with profound Buddhist teachings.
Even the old monk was not his enemy, let alone the young monk, even the anger on his face was forcibly put back.
"These monks are not simple..."
"They probably came for the Water and Land Dharma Conference."
"It depends on how Hanshan Temple copes with it."
"Why doesn't Master Tanyin take action?"
------
------
The monks of Jingguo were slapped in the face by foreign monks, and the faces of the people of Jingguo were naturally not good-looking. This was not just about the face of Hanshan Temple, it was enough to rise to the level of national honor.
Obviously, as dignitaries in the capital, these people present have the strongest national self-esteem.
At this moment, no one said anything about dragging these monks out and beating them to death with sticks.
The Water and Land Dharma Assembly held by Hanshan Temple this time is not only for Jingguo monks, but also for foreign monks with friendly intentions.
If they were really dragged out and beaten to death, wouldn't it mean that they were afraid?
Even if it can block the mouths of one or two people, can it block the mouths of everyone present?
If this matter spreads, the reputation Hanshan Temple has accumulated over the years will be destroyed.
Therefore, what everyone is looking forward to most at this moment is that Master Tanyin can really defeat these foreign monks with ulterior motives in Buddhism.
It had been a while since the old monk brought people to the door to provoke him, and more and more people were gathering around him. At the end of the lecture in a certain Buddhist hall, the crowd came out and saw the situation here, and gathered here with doubts.
.
Li Xuan and Li Mingzhu also walked towards Li Yi, with more than ten guards surrounding them, looking at everything around them vigilantly.
"what happened?"
Li Xuan glanced at the monks who were facing each other in the middle and said doubtfully.
Li Yi gestured to the audience, "Let's continue reading first."
Li Yi didn't say anything, but Princess Shouning excitedly recounted what had just happened. She just felt that listening to these monks talking was much more interesting than staying in the palace all day and listening to the lectures of the old gentlemen.
Of course, except Mr. Math.
"The bitter monk of Qi." Li Mingzhu said.
"What?" Li Yi looked back at her.
"That man is a bitter monk from Qi State." Li Mingzhu looked at the middle-aged monk holding an iron rod and said slowly: "Holding an iron rod and shaving his hair and eyebrows, he is undoubtedly a bitter monk. Only Qi State has such a monk."
If these monks are all monks from Qi State, then it makes sense to come here to cause trouble.
This is national hatred. Buddhism has no national boundaries, but monks have national boundaries.
The monks of Qi and Jing have never dealt with them.
At this time, the old monk from Hanshan Temple who had just spoken had already retreated with shame on his face. The old monk Zhixin looked at Master Tanyin with a smile on his face and asked, "What is a Buddha?"
"To actually turn Buddha around with Master Tanyin, you are really overestimating your abilities!"
"Master Tanyin's Dharma is so profound that this old monk will definitely be defeated."
"What is a Buddha? To ask such a simple question, I'm afraid even a monk can answer it."
Everyone still has full confidence in Master Tanyin. After all, the name of the great eminent monk did not come from the strong wind. Even His Majesty personally admitted it. How can the master's Dharma be fake?
However, unlike what everyone imagined, they did not see the scene where Master Tanyin defeated the foreign monks with a few words. After the old monk asked this sentence for a long time, Master Tanyin did not speak.
"Why doesn't Master Tanyin say anything?" Everyone began to wonder.
"Is this question difficult to answer?"
"Master won't..." Seeing Master Tanyin's expression, some people had doubts on their faces.
What is Buddha?
It’s normal for them to be unable to answer this question. Master Tanyin wouldn’t be able to answer it either. He is a virtuous and eminent monk!
"Why bother, monk?" Li Yi sighed. Although he didn't understand Buddhism, he was well-informed. There are many traps in this kind of problem. You can't let the other party take the initiative at all, otherwise the other party will take the lead if you are not careful.
, at this time, Master Tanyin’s approach is the wisest.
"It can't be said, it can't be said. It's wrong to say anything." Li Yi muttered in a low voice.
Li Mingzhu raised her head and glanced at him in surprise. This sentence did not look like it could be said from his mouth.
"What can't be said?" When the tsundere loli heard this, the expression on her face became even more confused.
Some people around who were familiar with Buddhism also heard Li Yi's words and nodded in agreement.
As the young man said, Master Tanyin cannot answer this question. As soon as he opens his mouth, he will be greeted by the other party chasing after him.
Li Yi was standing next to Master Tan Yin. Although his voice was soft, it still did not escape the other person's ears.
He turned his head slightly and glanced at Li Yi. This was the second time he heard this sentence from his mouth, and it was the same as what he was thinking at this time.
"Why doesn't Master Tanyin speak?" Monk Zhixin said with a smile.
It was wrong to say it, and it was also wrong not to say it------Countless people were thinking in their hearts, how about dragging these monks out and beating them to death with sticks?
Princess Shouning couldn't help it anymore. She pulled Li Yi's sleeve and asked, "Why doesn't Master Tanyin speak? Doesn't he know the answer? What is a Buddha?"
A child's heart is very simple and innocent. She didn't know what the conversation between the two old monks meant, she was just curious about the answer to the question.
Curiosity is what children of this age lack the most, even if she is a princess.
And she didn't ask Li Xuan or Li Mingzhu because in her eyes, the husband should know everything, just like his father.
Looking at the little Lolita's eyes full of curiosity, Li Yi really couldn't say the three words "I don't know".
He touched her head and whispered: "Master Tanyin is a great monk, how could he not know the answer to this question? It's just that the master is an expert. If he tells the answer directly, wouldn't he be like ordinary people?
Is there any difference?"
Li Yi's voice was very quiet and only spread within a small area around him. However, as soon as he spoke, several people around him turned their attention to him.
After all, the person who could say what he just said is not a simple person. Moreover, they also want to know why he said such a thing. Does he really understand what Master Tanyin meant?
"Then how did the gentleman know?" Princess Shouning was even more curious. The master didn't say it out loud, so how could the gentleman know what he was thinking?
"What did the monk ask Master Tanyin just now?" Li Yi asked with a smile.
"What is Buddha?" Princess Shouning said immediately.
"Look, although Master Tanyin didn't speak just now, he looked at me, you, and the people around him. But thinking about that question, it's not difficult to understand that he actually wanted to say, you are
Buddha, I am a Buddha, and all living beings are Buddhas..." As a math teacher, Li Yi fulfilled his responsibility as a Buddhist teacher very well, if Princess Shouning had such a teacher.
"An eminent monk in the former Tang Dynasty once said that if you are not enlightened, Buddha is a living being, and when you are enlightened, all living beings are Buddha. In fact, it means that each of us has Buddha nature, but it is covered up by the world of mortals, which is the sandalwood seal.
What the master wants to tell us--Master Tanyin is truly an eminent monk, and he can actually demonstrate Buddhist rituals invisibly. I admire him. I admire him."
"So that's it..." Little Loli nodded in understanding.
It can't be said, it can't be said, it really can't be said. After the husband said it, she actually became even more confused...
"That's it!" A man in brocade clothes behind Li Yi suddenly realized.
Another person's face was full of joy: "No wonder Master Tanyin just looked at me and said that all living beings are Buddhas. So, I also have Buddha nature?"
"Ah, I understand, that's what the master meant!" Several more people exclaimed.
"I'm guilty. I actually doubted Master Tanyin just now. I'm guilty!" One person said repeatedly with a face filled with remorse.
"Every action is based on Buddhist principles. This is the master!" Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement.
Master Tanyin is indeed a generation of eminent monks. Even after being seen through, he can still maintain a calm face.
He glanced at Li Yi with a smile, did he mean it, did he really mean it?
Well, little benefactor Li Yi said yes, that’s it...
The one who knows me is Li Yi’s little benefactor.
