Originally, this debate on Buddhism and Taoism was just a pastime for everyone.
In fact, regardless of Buddhism or Taoism, those who truly understand the situation know that this is not a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, but a personal dispute between Feng Zhou and Fa Hai.
There are also many people who don't say anything on the surface, but secretly say that the sea of fahai is really evil and will retaliate, and they are still petty.
There are so many monsters and ghosts. I didn’t see you, Zen Master Fahai, going to slay the demons, but you turned your nose up and raised your eyes at a few of Feng Zhenren’s friends.
Doesn’t this mean that people like Feng Zhenren are soft persimmons?
No one will give up!
No wonder Feng Zhenren wants to argue with him.
This is not an ordinary conflict. If you don't give others a real face and use Buddhist magic weapons to deal with their friends, of course they will fight back.
But no one expected that Feng Zhou's counterattack would be so sharp.
It actually triggered a thunderstorm from heaven and hit Fahai alive.
Thunder!
The thunder really hits people!
There was only a slight silence on and off the stage.
Immediately, wild exclamations broke out.
"Escort! Escort!"
The Imperial Forest Army and the officers and soldiers of the Dianqian Division shouted one after another and surrounded Zhao Gou.
The monks and Taoists on the debate stage all stood up in awe, with shock on their faces.
The people below were crying for their fathers and mothers and running away in all directions.
"My dear, where are you?"
"Chuan Wazi, stand still, mother will be there soon!"
"Mother, mother..."
The people in the audience cried for their fathers and called their mothers, and the crowd was in chaos.
In the midst of this chaos, Feng Zhou suddenly shouted, like spring thunder on his tongue: "Quiet!"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunder rolling past, and like a shocking current sweeping through everyone's hearts.
It was as if Feng Zhou's voice sounded in everyone's heart.
Almost instantly, everyone fell silent and the people stopped shouting and stood still.
Even the weapons in the hands of the imperial guards and the officers in front of the palace could not help but loosen their grip.
Zhao Gou breathed a sigh of relief.
He always felt that he should be uneasy, but at this moment, he felt very peaceful.
At this time, Feng Zhou saluted Zhao Gou and said loudly: "Your Majesty, don't be alarmed. Fahai does not respect the way of heaven. God will send down thunder and calamity to strike him. Now the dark clouds have dispersed and the thunder calamity has passed. Your Majesty, there is no need to worry."
"This..." Zhao Gou was stunned. He looked at the chopped Fahai, then at Feng Zhou, and suddenly realized: "It turns out to be a thunderstorm from heaven. How could it be like this? Could it be that this Fahai is a demon monk?"
"
When several ministers and military officers around him saw this, they all smiled and nodded, saying that this was a calamity thunder of heaven, and that Fa Hai must have done something contrary to heaven. It is true that people should not be judged by their appearance.
In fact, few people believed Feng Zhou's words.
This is obviously the magical power used by Feng Zhou, right? Everyone is discerning, who doesn’t understand the meaning behind this?
You know, it is rumored that Feng Zhou is also a god, a master of the two schools of gold and elixir, and has a deep understanding of the thunder method. After debating scriptures, he comes up to fight with lightning and strikes him with lightning. Although it is a bit despicable and shameless, it is still within the reasonable range.
If we want to blame it, it seems we can only blame Fahai for being too stupid and not being able to adapt.
Therefore, everyone's eyes flicker when they talk about it.
Your acting skills are too bad.
Feng Zhou watched Zhao Gou and the people around him perform with some speechlessness, and said in his heart.
Damn it, they were obviously trying to deal with me, they didn't really believe me.
Feng Zhou shook his head helplessly, looked at Master Kongming, the abbot of Jingci Temple, and said, "Master Kongming, monks don't lie, but that thunder just now was a tribulation thunder from heaven?"
Zen Master Kongming can sit next to Fahai, so he is profound in Buddhism and has developed magical powers. He can easily tell at a glance whether it is a thunderstorm of heavenly calamity.
He sighed, stood up, and saluted Zhao Gou: "Your Majesty, the thunder from the sky just now was indeed the tribulation thunder of heaven. Brother Fahai did not respect the way of heaven and tried to tamper with the original meaning of Buddhism, so that he was criticized by heaven.
Tribulation.”
"So this is ah!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Gou and others who were originally shocked and confused, thinking that Feng Zhou was up to something secretly, suddenly went into an uproar!
It turns out that what Master Feng said was true, Fahai was really struck by the thunder of heavenly calamity!
They wrongly blamed Zhenren Feng!
Suddenly, Zhao Gou felt ashamed.
"Amitabha! What nonsense! How could this be the thunder of heaven's calamity? It was clearly because you sealed the boat and did not follow the moral principles and attacked the poor monk!"
Following the Buddha's chant, Fahai, who was dressed in black and looked like a Kunlun slave, stood up and glared at Feng Zhou.
At this time, his whole body was pitch black, his eyebrows and beard were completely burned, and only two rows of teeth were white.
But Feng Zhou saw a murderous look in his eyes.
At this time, Kong Ming knew that Fahai was not in the right mood. He hurriedly stepped forward and said slowly: "Brother Fahai, you just violated the way of heaven and were struck by lightning. You should turn back in time, otherwise you will go astray and it will be difficult to become a Buddha...ah..."
"Shut up!" Fahai became angry and punched Zen Master Kongming who was trying to persuade him, punching him through the body.
Zen Master Kongming looked in disbelief at Fahai who punched his chest with a horrified look on his face, but without saying a word, he turned his head and died.
The abbot of the dignified Jingci Temple, Zen Master Kongming, who was a leader in Buddhist practice, was unexpectedly killed by Fahai in a surprise attack.
"Zen Master Kongming!"
The dozen or so monks who had been silent all this time suddenly screamed.
A monk took a step forward, pointed at Fahai and said angrily: "Fahai, what do you want to do? You attacked and killed Zen Master Kongming in full view of everyone!"
Fahai snorted coldly and said angrily: "Do you need to worry about it? I can kill whoever I want to kill. If you keep talking, I will kill you too!"
After he said this, he turned around and glared at Feng Zhou: "My dear Feng Zhou, you are preventing me from becoming a Buddha and ruining my practice. I am incompatible with you!"
At this time, Fa Hai can be described as angry and crazy.
I have been practicing Buddhism for thousands of years, and I have followed the Buddha's teachings step by step. I have been completely sincere to my Buddha in my heart. I have never done anything disobeying my Buddha except for the incident involving White Snake.
But even the matter of the White Snake involved deep Buddhist meanings, and it was not something he could do arbitrarily, so even if he was enlightened by the Arhat Who Subdued the Dragon who did not know the truth, he would not retreat even a step.
However, he just expressed his opinions on Feng Zhou's unreasonable words, and he was struck by the thunder of heaven!
This is a thunderbolt!
This tribulation thunder marked that he was completely out of reach of Arhat status.
How can a person who has been condemned by God achieve the state of Buddhahood?
So all the hard work and thousands of years of cultivation were just ruined in one fell swoop?
Have you been abandoned by me like this?
Fa Hai was so furious that he couldn't bear it any longer. His eyes became extremely red and he couldn't bear it anymore. He punched Zen Master Kongming to death and yelled at Feng Zhou.
But Feng Zhou smiled coldly: "You violated the way of heaven and suffered divine punishment. What does it have to do with being a poor person?"
In fact, how could it be so easy to trigger the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder?
Feng Zhou was well versed in the art of thunder, and had already secretly prepared to arouse the thunder clouds. He took this opportunity to call on the heavenly calamity thunder, and asked Fa Hai to speak out against the heavens and strike down.
The timing was perfect.
But the prerequisite for triggering the thunder of heaven's disaster is: what is the way of heaven, and what is going with the heavens and going against the heavens?
Feng Zhou was not sure before, but after going through Zhongnan Mountain, Lu Dongbin, and Han Zhongli discussing the Tao, he suddenly realized and understood the true meaning of the Tao of Heaven.
The emperor on the high platform frowned slightly, and the Minister of Rites standing nearby had already noticed it. He immediately took a step forward and shouted sternly: "Fahai, this is the emperor's presence. You dare to kill someone. You are clearly contemptuous of the imperial power!"
"Shut up!" Fa Hai roared and threw the beads in his hand suddenly. The beads flew dozens of feet away and directly hit the chest of the Minister of Rites.
"Crack!"
The Minister of Rites didn't even let out a scream, he flew several feet backwards and fell to the ground dead.
"Fahai, you..." Zhao Gou was shocked and angry, and at the same time a sense of fear arose in his heart. He couldn't understand why the monk in front of him suddenly turned black. He even dared to kill a dignified imperial official, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
born.
"Fahai, how brave are you!" Some other officials shouted in fear.
"Guard you!" Xia Hu, the commander of the front department of the palace, shouted loudly. He was as fast as flying, rushing ahead of Wang Chongyang and Xin Qiji, and rushed to Zhao Gou in two or three steps. He opened his arms and stood between Fa Hai and the emperor.
Clang Clang Clang!
Only then did the Royal Forest Army and the Palace Chief react. They tightened their weapons again and surrounded Zhao Gou tightly.
"Fahai!" the emperor roared, "what do you want?"
Xia Hu also shouted angrily: "Fa Hai! The officials treat you well like a Buddhist, and the court even rewards you Jinshan Temple. If you have any grudge against Feng Zhenren, you can tell your majesty why you were so impulsive and unwise and killed the court official."
?”
As soon as the others heard the command and asked the master to question him, they immediately understood what he meant and started to persuade Fahai with words.
Wang Chongyang shouted: "Fahai, as a disciple of Buddhism, you dare to assassinate a court official in broad daylight. Aren't you afraid that the emperor's anger will cause blood to flow from your body and your Jinshan Temple will be wiped out?"
Xin Qiji also shouted: "Fahai, you have violated the way of heaven and committed many evil deeds. Buddhism will not tolerate you. If you rein in your horse from the brink, it is still too late."
These two guys are highly skilled in martial arts and have strong internal strength. This shout clearly suppressed the others, and it also implicitly slapped a big hat on Fahai.
"Shut up!" Fahai shouted angrily and used the Buddhist lion's roar to suppress everyone's shouts.
At this time, Fa Hai could not care about others. He just turned around, glared at Feng Zhou, and roared: "I, Fa Hai, have been practicing for more than a thousand years. I am only one step away from attaining the Tao and Fruition, but you have led me into trouble.
Invoking divine punishment and causing all my thousand years of cultivation to come to nothing! Feng Zhou, son, I will cut you into pieces with a thousand knives to relieve the hatred in my heart!"
"Amitabha, Dharma Sea, you can become a Buddha with just one thought, and become a devil with just one thought. You have fallen into the devil's path. If you don't wake up early, you will regret it!" A monk shouted loudly.
He was Master Huiming of Hanshan Temple in Suzhou Prefecture. He was looking at Fahai with unclear eyes.
