As for Zhao Ran, he actually said nothing and did not mention the whereabouts of the golden bowl. You can say that Zhao Ran was deceiving himself, but in the eyes of practitioners, the question of asking questions needs to be taken into consideration.
Talking nonsense now may hinder your practice in the future.
But Mingjue definitely didn't know Zhao Ran's true intention, so he considered the problem according to his understanding, which is also the understanding of normal people, and stretched out a finger: "I, Tianlongyuan, are willing to pay 10,000 taels of silver, and I only ask Daozhang Zhao to part with me.
"
The golden bowl weighs only one and a half kilograms, and I want to buy it for ten thousand taels of silver. The price seems good, but in fact it is far from enough. This is just a test by Mingjue, waiting for Zhao Ran to counter-offer.
Zhao Ran smiled and said: "Master is joking. This is a thing for Master Xuanci to achieve enlightenment. What money are you talking about? Doesn't this blaspheme Master Xuanci?"
Mingjue understood it based on his knowledge since dealing with Zhao Ran, and he felt that he understood it. If it was just the first sentence, it means that the price is not enough, but the second sentence means that Zhao Ran does not want to talk about money, money
It cannot be exchanged for a golden bowl.
After a few more polite words, Mingjue said, "Then I won't disturb the Taoist priest's rest." Then he said goodbye and left.
Of course, what Zhao Ran was thinking about was not money, nor was he just wanting to exchange for other Louguan relics. Before he set off, he exchanged opinions with Dongfang Li Feifu. Dongfang Li had one request for him, which was to try his best to find a way to meet him.
Arrive at Cheng'an.
The last time Cheng An sent a talisman to Dongfang Li was a month ago, and he had no contact since then. Dongfang Li did not dare to send a talisman back to Cheng An. He guessed that Cheng An was already under close surveillance, or under the strict protection of the Buddhist circle.
, can’t even send flying talismans.
Dongfang Li was eager to know the current situation of Jinbo Club and what condition Cheng An was in. However, he also reminded Zhao Ran that he should not rush to see Cheng An rashly, otherwise the "window paper" would be punctured.
Danger - although this layer of window paper is actually very thin and transparent.
As for whether there is a possibility of Cheng An's "rebellion", Dongfang Li has ruled out this possibility. The reason is very simple. If Cheng An really betrays, the contact between them will be very normal and will never be like it is now.
An interruption occurred.
Therefore, Zhao Ran felt that this golden bowl might be an opportunity to meet Cheng An, but he had not yet figured out how to word it or how to find a reason.
After Mingjue returned, he reported to Hongdao the results of his discussion with Zhao Ran, and then said: "From the young monk's point of view, Taoist Zhao is not short of money."
Hongdao pondered for a moment and said: "This object is very important to my Buddhist sect. It can be of great use when preaching the Dharma. If you take this object out during the Tianlongyuan Dharma Assembly, the Dharma Assembly will be perfect. Furthermore, there is a mysterious meaning hidden on it.
If the remnants of the Buddha's teachings and insights from Master Ci's enlightenment are properly preserved, they will be a great help to me as a Buddhist monk in the future when I attain nirvana and enlightenment, so I must keep them."
Ming Jue nodded: "What you said is true, but Taoist Master Zhao doesn't want money. He only wants to get back Lou Guan's relics."
Hongdao nodded, shook his head, and murmured: ""The Promise Picture"... "The Picture of the Ten Sons of Xuanyuan"... What should we do now?"
Mingjue said: "From the young monk's point of view, the Wuji Picture should be the main one, followed by the Xuanyuan Ten Sons Picture. After all, the former is a relic of Lou Guan, and the latter is an object of the Jade Emperor Pavilion."
Hongdao sighed: "The "Promise Picture" is in the hands of Wanfa Temple, and the "Xuanyuan Ten Sons Picture" was taken by Jambudi Temple back then. How can I make them spit?"
Mingjue was silent. In order to exchange for Xuanci's rainbow body, Tianlongyuan has thought of many ways and collected more than ten pieces of Lou Guan, including "The Biography of Immortal Master Lou Guan", Ling Fei Liu Jia Su Zuo Dan Cauldron and Qing Yu Bao Wings.
Looking at the relics. Now I want to exchange for Xuanci's golden bowl of enlightenment, but I don't know how to convince Wanfa Temple and Jambudvipa Temple.
The golden bowl of enlightenment is useful in Xuanye Hall of Tianlongyuan and is also very important in Taici Temple, but it is not that significant to Wanfa Temple and Jambudvipa Temple. After all, this treasure is not used for fighting. I really want to say
When it comes to "dharma", it is also "conditional dharma". Although it is of great use in realizing Nirvana, due to the practice, only the monks of the Consciousness-only Sect such as Taici Temple can benefit greatly. And the most important thing is that
, after Buddhists get this Buddhist treasure, they will definitely not give it to Wanfa Temple or Jambudvipa Temple.
Although Tianlongyuan is the leader in Western Xia Buddhism, it is because it is recognized by all the temples that when encountering Wanfa Temple with Wenyin Buddha and Jambudur Temple with Zen Master Xu Yongming, Tianlongyuan's decree will inevitably be greatly compromised.
It’s really a headache!
Mingjue asked: "Can I ask Master Yin Guang to speak?"
Hongdao shook his head: "Even so, we have to take out the same Buddha treasure first. It's not easy for Master Yinguang to talk in vain. Now that we can't say it, we still have to negotiate with Bodhi Hall and ask them to bring out equivalent treasures.
Replacement of Wanfa Temple and Jambudvipa Temple."
The Bodhi Hall is in charge of the Buddhist treasures and Buddhist scriptures collected by Tianlongyuan. The "Biography of the Immortal Master Lou Guan", the Lingfei Liujia Suzo Alchemy Cauldron were taken out from the Bodhi Hall, and the Qingyu Baoyi was taken from the Bodhi Hall with the same Buddha treasures.
What Lin An replaced. "The Legend of Immortal Master Lou Guan" was nothing more than that. He took out these two items, the Alchemy Cauldron and the Precious Wings, in exchange for the Xuanci Hong Body. It already made Bodhi Hall almost vomit blood. On that day, everyone in Tianlong Dean Hall
The elders had a lot of arguments about this, and finally it was decided by Master Yin Guang. Now that we have to take out two equal Buddha treasures, we don't know what kind of trouble the elders' hall will cause.
But Hongdao, as the leader of Xuanye Hall, really wanted to get the golden bowl, which would be extremely beneficial to him in promoting Buddhism. After thinking for a moment, he said to Mingjue: "Go and ask Master Xuansheng to come over and discuss it together."
Hongdao planned to ask Taici Temple to contribute.
Just as Mingjue agreed to go out, he heard Hongdao smile: "No need to go, he's here."
After a while, Master Xuansheng entered Hongdao's room, clasped his hands and said: "Brother Hongdao, this poor monk is here to talk about the Golden Bowl..."
Hongdao waved his hand: "Junior Brother Xuansheng, please sit down. I am about to invite you to come over to discuss the Golden Bowl. Mingjue, please tell Master Xuansheng what Director Zhao said."
After listening to Mingjue's account, Xuansheng immediately said: "My senior brother and Master Wenyin have a very deep friendship, which is extraordinary. I will go to Master Wenyin about the matter of "The Promise Picture". Without further ado, I immediately set off for Wanfa Temple.
."
"Junior Brother Xuansheng, please wait a moment. Let me, Tianlongyuan, discuss it first and decide which Buddhist treasure to take out and hand over to Wanfa Temple."
"Senior Brother Hongdao, this is a matter for my Taici Temple. How can I let Tianlongyuan spend money on it? There are also Buddha treasures in my temple, which can be replaced with "Wuji Tu". Senior Brother, just listen to my news. I just have one request.
Please help me, senior brother."
"Junior brother, please tell me."
"Senior Brother Xuanci enters the Tianlongyuan Pagoda Forest as usual after the Hongti Sutra ritual. This is the rule of our Buddhist sect, and I have no objection. But this golden bowl needs to be kept in our Taici Temple. Of course, Xuanye Hall will keep it in the future
When it is necessary to use it, I, Taici Temple, will not refuse it, and I will ask my senior brother for permission."
Hongdao nodded immediately: "If your Taici Temple can find a way to exchange for "The Promise Picture", this golden bowl will be kept by your Taici Temple and will be handed over to you after the Tianlongyuan Dharma Ceremony. There is no doubt about this."
Xuansheng left the table immediately and took Guangzhen straight to Wanfa Temple, leaving Guangfa to follow Hongdao and take care of him.
