The meeting between Zhao Ran and Mingjue was arranged in a side hall of Yuxu Palace. If the senior cultivators saw a bald monk appearing in Wudang, it would probably cause a commotion on the spot, and the various explanations would be endless.
No, even if it is explained clearly on the spot, I don’t know how many versions will be interpreted when it is passed down the mountain.
This monk Mingjue was very familiar with Zhao Ran who was pretending to be An, and in a sense, it was precisely because of the appearance of Zhao Ran that he got the opportunity to see through the realm of nose consciousness and enter the practice of the wisdom of appearance of fear.
, leaping from the novice realm to the monk realm, in terms of cultivation level, he is roughly equivalent to the Taoist Jindan Master.
Now the great monk was sitting upright on the futon. When Zhao Ran faced him, he thought of the past events in Xixia and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Zhao Ran was smiling on his face, while Mingjue was laughing in his heart. He put his hands together and saluted cheerfully, and said with a little excitement: "Amitabha, Taoist Zhao, in fact, the young monk and Taoist Zhao are destined to be together!"
Zhao Ran was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, you really have mastered the essence of Master Zhicheng's practice. Everyone you meet says you are destined?
I also thought, maybe Cheng An's affairs in Xixia were exposed too much, and Qukong Temple had already guessed that he was Cheng An? So he asked: "I wonder where the master started talking about this?"
Mingjue hurriedly explained: "Taoist Zhao's fame is resounding throughout Xingqing. A painting of "The Mountain Guest" sells for as much as the sky. The young monk also collected Taoist Master's masterpieces and often played with them and couldn't put them down."
So that's it, Zhao Ran said with a smile: "If you have time, you should learn from the master."
Mingjue was very excited: "I don't dare to take the word "sparring" seriously. This time I must beg the Taoist Master for a calligraphy treasure. Speaking of the fate between the young monk and the Taoist Master, it is actually more than that. Taoist Master Zhao's good friend Cheng'an is also a close friend with the young monk.
When the young monk interacted with the donor, he often heard him mention Taoist Zhao. Therefore, this time, our Tianlong Academy sent people to Daming. The young monk heard that he wanted to meet with Taoist Zhao, so he volunteered to come and see him."
Facing his biggest fan, Zhao Ran was a little uncomfortable. He looked at Wu Tianshi who was sitting at attention, coughed dryly and said: "My good friend did some small business in Xingqing, please take care of me, Xiaodao
Thank you here."
Mingjue said with a smile: "Cheng Donor has a big business in Xingqing. From the officials of the government and the public, to the common people, everyone knows him. When it comes to caring, how can I use the little monk? But if there is any difficulty, the little monk can be used.
It is our duty to do our best, so we must do our best.”
Zhao Ran nodded: "Thank you so much, Master. You have worked so hard here, traveling thousands of miles and traveling across mountains and rivers. However, I have important matters on my mind and have never been able to see you. Please forgive me, Master."
Mingjue waved his hand quickly: "Where can I say it's hard work? When I think of being able to meet the mountain guests, the young monk can't sleep at night. He is only happy."
Zhao Ran felt a little helpless. The other party was so excited that he just wanted to be friendly and talk about his admiration, but forgot the main topic. It seemed that he could only take the initiative to speak.
"Master, what are your plans for Tianlong Academy when you come here this time?"
Mingjue seemed to have just remembered this matter, and said quickly: "Our Tianlong Academy was originally scheduled to hold Master Xuanci's Nirvana Ceremony on the sixth day of June, but because Master Hongti was at the Taoist Priest's place, we had to postpone it. I just don't know how long it will take.
When will I have time to return the rainbow body?"
Zhao Ran looked embarrassed: "Well... look, I just finished the ascension ceremony of the micro-manifestation master, and I still have some things to deal with..."
Mingjue said: "I know, I know! I'm not urging the Taoist priest, but my Buddhist sect is eager to see the Taoist priest go to Xingqing. I hope the Taoist priest can understand this situation. All the eminent monks in Tianlong Dean's Lao Tang have said that if Taoist priest
If you are able to go to Xingqing as soon as possible, I will treat you as a state guest."
Zhao Ran said: "Don't worry, Master Mingjue, I will definitely go to Xingqing, but I'm afraid I can't rush it. Master, you should know that I am a disciple of Lou Guan, and my master's affairs are the most important thing for me now."
Mingjue asked cautiously: "I wonder if there is something important for your master? If it is not convenient for the Taoist priest to tell you, just pretend that the young monk did not ask. However, when the young monk came, he was told by Master Yinguang that if the Taoist priest has any difficulties, just come and tell me.
Buddhism will definitely try its best to help."
This is the condition of the inquiry. This is what Zhao Ran was waiting for, so he said: "I won't hide it from you. Our Louguan sect has received the approval of all the true masters of the True Master Hall and is ready to start a new business. Now is the time when everything is waiting to be done.
…”
Mingjue immediately said: "This is a good thing. I have also read the archives of the Louguan sect. It has been passed down for a long time and has a profound foundation. The Louguan Taoism still has a wide influence to this day. For being able to re-establish the sect, the young monk congratulates the Taoist Master on behalf of Tianlongyuan.
Yes. My Buddhist sect is willing to provide 50,000 taels of silver to help your sect rebuild the mountain gate."
Zhao Ran smiled, waved his hand and said, "That's not necessary. How can fifty thousand taels be enough for me to rebuild the mountain gate? Besides, I don't lack this small amount of money for the building."
Mingjue immediately increased the number: "One hundred thousand taels!"
Zhao Ran shook his head and said: "Let's talk about this later. But I am not paying attention to this matter now. What is the most important thing about re-establishing the mountain gate? It is not money, not resources, but the renewal of inheritance. And how is the inheritance?
What about the manifestation? My teacher’s intention is to build a tower in the mountain gate to store the relics of the ancestors of the tower temple in the past generations.”
Ming Jue nodded, thoughtfully, and Zhao Ran continued: "Now that I have said this, I will not pretend to be fat. Our Lou Guan sect has withered for hundreds of years. Now it can be said that it is alone and has a very small family background. Master
You just said that Lou Guan has a profound heritage. I heard it in my ears and felt pain in my heart. These four words are no longer worthy of me. Many of the ancestors’ relics are scattered in the world without knowing their whereabouts. I, the Lou Guan disciple, are really ashamed.
To our ancestors, our ancestors."
"So, Taoist priest, what do you mean?"
"Now the most urgent task for everyone in Lou Guan is to recover these lost treasures of our ancestors. No matter where these treasures are, in whose hands they are, no matter what the price is, and what conditions are required, our Lou Guan faction will do our best.
Next, no matter how high the price is and how harsh the conditions are, we disciples will try our best to complete it! If it doesn't work in one year, we will work hard for two years; if it doesn't work in two years, we will work hard for three years, ten years, or even a hundred years! In short,
We must find these relics, so that we can be worthy of the ancestors of all generations."
Mingjue thought for a moment, put his hands together and said, "I wonder when I will leave Wudang? Where are you going to go next?"
Zhao Ran said: "It will take about two or three days. After the matter here is settled, I plan to return to Sichuan."
Mingjue nodded and said, "I wonder if the young monk can stay here and go back together when the Taoist Master comes down the mountain?"
Zhao Ran said: "Of course. If I have free time these two days, I will also come to meet the master and learn about calligraphy together."
