All the monks chanted the Buddha's name one after another and placed futons, but only Kong and the four great holy monks were there.
This is recognition.
It is also comforting.
No matter how powerful this unknown wandering monk is, it is a good thing to give him a corresponding status and absorb him into the mainstream of Buddhism.
However, the monks did not expect that the ensuing Dharma discussion session, in which they spoke every word in detail, would actually suppress everyone's attention.
Kongran is the dharma title of Doujiu Monk. As the successor of Sweeping Monk and the abbot of Shaolin Temple, he is slightly inferior to the four great sage monks when it comes to Buddhism and Zen theory alone.
However, there was a time gap of six hundred years, and especially after experiencing the most prosperous rise of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty, he was able to overwhelm the monks with his temporary discussion of Dharma.
The wine-fighting monk was unwilling to do this, but the holy order was given, and he understood that only by completing the prince's plan could Buddhism be preserved.
"Could it be that the prince wants to..."
There were all enlightened monks present, and they were very intelligent. When the wine-fighting monks had a verbal battle with the monks, a hundred blessings came into being, and all the wonderful understandings came to mind, and the novel Buddhist theories made the believers excited, but they felt that the previous practice was too narrow.
, an idea suddenly appeared in the minds of Liao Kong and the four great holy monks.
The appearance of the Drunken Monk was such a coincidence that a conference to promote Buddhism became a place for him to become famous.
Once this person establishes a sect in the future, gets the help of the imperial power, and publicizes today's fruitful results, wouldn't it soon become a holy place for Buddhism?
Until then, where will Jing Nian Chan Monastery go?
Cihang Jingzhai has been destroyed. If Jingnian Chanyuan collapses again, the power of Buddhism in this world will completely collapse!
"no!"
The momentum of the four eminent monks suddenly changed, and they faintly formed the Brahma Realm, pressing towards the wine-fighting monk.
"All conditioned phenomena are like bubbles in a dream, like dew or lightning, and should be viewed as such."
The wine-fighting monk's eyebrows were lowered, like drums at dusk and bells in the morning, making the believers look forward to enlightenment.
With the Buddha's light lingering faintly, he actually used his own power to resist the four great sage monks in the world without falling behind.
"Namo Amitabha!"
The four monks started, and then the other monks chanted the Buddha's name, chanted sutras, and used their spiritual power to remotely control the mind. It could be said that killing without blood was enough, and the drunken monk had to show off his ugly appearance.
"The three realms are based on mind, and all dharmas are based on consciousness. Don't ask for others, everything is sufficient!"
"Kongran, this is what you understand by Buddhism?"
However, at this moment, a voice with profound wisdom that transcended worldly conditions came from far away from the high platform.
Gu Cheng stood up and with just a simple word, he resolved the oppression of the four monks.
They watched the prince ask questions and explained in vain: "Everything is sufficient, nothing is missing, and you can use it freely, why should you seek it from outside? This means that everyone's heart has the conditions for enlightenment and even becoming a Buddha. There is no need to ask for help.
Others outside the heart deliberately pursue the Dharma!"
"With one thought, all living beings are Buddhas! Great goodness!"
Gu Cheng nodded, smiled to his left and right, and said, "This is a truly eminent monk!"
As soon as this statement came out, it was the final conclusion of this Dharma conference.
The wine-fighting monk stood up with a smile and bowed to thank him. All the believers present showed reverence for him, while the common people scratched their heads and wondered how they could become enlightened and become a Buddha.
The eyes of the group of monks showed complicated and unspeakable expressions, and Ling Kong and the four great holy monks lowered their eyes.
In this first round of open fighting, the original Buddhist forces were defeated.
But what follows is a more dangerous secret fight.
Jingnian Zen Monastery has been a holy place for Buddhism for hundreds of years. It is too natural to want to usurp the throne with a wild monk who comes from nowhere!
What's more, Doujiu Monk's many novel Buddhist concepts also gave them great inspiration.
When you can go back to retreat, meditate, and absorb the essence, Buddhism will surely be able to take a further step and save the world!
"Your Highness, there is a devil hidden in Buddhism!"
However, no one expected that when the ceremony was about to end, a young man suddenly jumped out and shouted loudly.
It's Wang Tong.
"Um?"
Everyone was stunned.
Then Wang Tong pointed to the direction where the monk of Dashi Temple was sitting and roared: "The great virtuous holy monk is disguised by Shi Zhixuan, a member of the Demon Sect. He forced me to take poison and lurked beside the prince. I, Wang Tong, am a loyal and good man.
How can you be greedy for life and afraid of death? Please tell me, Your Highness!"
Whoosh!
Almost instantly, the four great saintly monks stepped forward and surrounded the virtuous saintly monk in the center.
They are not people who are instigated by a few words, but the virtuous holy monk has been silent since the beginning of the Dharma Assembly.
It was not obvious before, but now that it was mentioned, they immediately felt stunned. How could they dare to be careless?
Buddhism is already suffering from internal and external troubles. If another devil appears, it will be completely over!
"Dear Virtue, do you have anything to say?"
Gu Chengze stood up slowly and looked at him.
"The old monk has nothing to say, only proof!"
The great and virtuous holy monk had been sitting down, with a solemn and compassionate look on his face. At this time, facing the questioning eyes of everyone, he raised his hands above his head, clasped tightly like flower buds, his ring fingers tilted up, and the fingers were pressed together, and he shouted: "Come!
"
Buzz!
Everyone's eardrums suddenly vibrated, and for a moment their minds went blank. However, their spines swayed slightly with the vibration of the sound, and a feeling of comfort arose spontaneously throughout their bodies.
"Amitabha!"
When the four holy monks saw it, their expressions suddenly lightened.
Because this is the direct inheritance of Dashi Temple, the nine-character mantra mudra.
Buddhism often has martial arts that use hand seals, supplemented by musical notes and mantras, to shake people's vitality and produce magical effects.
Xu Ziling learned this method at Dashi Temple, and from then on he became more and more close to Buddhism.
In the eyes of the four great saintly monks, if the great virtue in front of them is someone from the Demon Sect in disguise, they will never be able to perform the nine-character mantra mudra.
"Huh?"
Gu Cheng's eyes were focused.
In terms of martial arts alone, this was indeed the most authentic nine-character mantra mudra. Even the four holy monks were relieved of their suspicions, but something inexplicable moved in his heart, and he felt an unusually familiar feeling from it.
Gu Chengfu reaches into the soul, with five fingers spread out, Gao Miao's artistic conception is born, there is emotion and ruthlessness, the beginning of the fairy's womb.
"Um?"
Then the virtuous holy monk's eyes also fell over. As soon as their eyes touched, they both knew what kind of martial arts the other party was performing.
"The great method of cultivating demons in the heart of the Tao?"
"Cihang Sword Code!"
Among the four great books, these two are the most closely related.
Because after reading "Random Thoughts on the Demonic Way", Dini combined what he learned from Buddhism to create the "Cihang Sword Code", the fairy-born demon species all go to extremes, but the source is the same.
Just like the two sides of light and darkness, they met at this moment. Even though Gu Cheng did not really practice the sword canon, he accurately grasped the qi of the immortal fetus with the high position in the world of immortal martial arts and the divine skills taught by heaven.
The temptation to demons is by no means inferior to the original version.
"Such skill! Great achievement of the demon species! Only that person! Good! There is no place to look for after wearing iron shoes, but I didn't expect you to come to the door yourself!"
The great saintly monk was still stunned, realizing this unprecedented feeling. Gu Cheng smiled and waved his hand:
"This person is the evil emperor Xiang Yutian. Buddhist monks, if they don't get rid of the demon, how long will it take?"
