Chapter 35: If Zen is like this, you won’t be able to change it!

"It's really great, it's great." Wukong looked at Senior Brother Xuanshuang with a frank face and felt depressed. "You are all these things, but why don't you tell Master Daoxin?"

"Tell Master Daoxin? You must tell me." Monk Xuanshuang carried the load and walked along the steps towards the Zhengjue Temple on the mountain. "Isn't Senior Brother Hongren going back to Jiangzhou to tell Master Daoxin about this?" No mistake.

"Are you sure Senior Brother Hongren is going back to report this matter?" Wukong continued to ask seriously, "But for Master Daoxin, Senior Brother Hongren told me that there are now a group of Taoist priests in Huangmei County, and they are building Taoist temples in front of our mountain gate, intending to steal our incense."

"Those Taoist priests have something to say." Monk Xuanshuang still spoke in a relaxed tone, "They practice their Tao, and we practice our Zen, and there is something to say about this."

"They intercept our believers and incense in the road ahead" Goku raised his voice a little.

"Those, so-called." Monk Xuanshuang replied slowly, "It's just some external things, and there are important things. Our Zen Buddhism does not care about the donations and incense of believers. But junior brother, don't focus too much on these common things, as it will affect your enlightenment."

After hearing this from Monk Xuanshuang's words, even Wukong couldn't help but feel a burst of fire. Our Zen Buddhism doesn't care about giving and incense? Senior Brother, your words are so relaxed. Yes, you and Senior Brother Hongren do not need to care, because there is a junior brother, I, who is paying you money.

You, in the past fifteen years, how much money did Dalin Temple supplement Huangmei? Not to mention that for so long, how much money did I pay to Huangmei in the past three years?

When you have no money in Zhengjue Temple, or you want to give up porridge and rice, you will reach out to Dalin Temple. Haven't you ever thought that there is no money tree in Dalin Temple? Could it be that money in Dalin Temple can fall from the sky or fly out from the Western Paradise, or that the Tathagata Buddha has shown his saints?

No, no, that's all the things that Master Daoxin dug out from me, but I earned me one by one, okay?

"How long has Zhou Shaode been here for the county magistrate? Because Senior Brother Hongren remembered to go back to Jiangzhou to report, have you done it long ago?" Wukong looked up at Xuanshuang, who was sweating profusely, and still calmed down his tone, "Senior Brother Xuanshuang, I don't respect you, I deliberately find fault with you for Senior Brother."

"This Huangmei Temple is related to the development of my Zen Buddhism in the next decades. We cannot take it lightly." Wukong paused for a moment, "Since last year, junior brother, I would ask someone to send a cage of pigeons to Huangmei, and ask you to pass the Huangmei flying pigeons back to Jiangzhou. Are you, senior brother?" No mistake.

"Ah," Senior Brother Xuanshuang still answered slowly, "Didn't the pigeon be put on time?" Nothing wrong.

"Yes, there is indeed something going on." Wukong grinded his teeth, "But you either said that everything went smoothly today, or tomorrow you said that the believers are ready to welcome Master Daoxin to Huangmei to stay in Huangmei. Senior Brother Xuanshuang, do you think Huangmei's situation is really going smoothly?" No mistake.

"Yes, it was still very smooth a month and a half ago, but who would have thought that His Majesty Li Yuan suddenly issued an edict." Monk Xuanshuang replied slowly, "Then it became unsuccessful."

"So senior brother, is it time for Zhou Shaode to come here to be the county magistrate?"

"Three months ago"

"This matter has never been mentioned in Feige's Legend?"

"My junior brother, is the officials appointed by the court related to our monk?" Monk Xuanshuang always seemed to be so tepid, "If you talk about this kind of thing, will it be useful to tell you?"

"So that is to say, senior brother, you have long known that Huangmei County has been demolished into four counties, but because you think it is useless, you haven't talked to Master Daoxin and Junior Brother in the past few years?" Wukong continued to ask.

"Yes, it is the matter of the court that the county should be divided. After he divided it, isn't this Huangmei anymore? There is something easy to say about this kind of thing."

Yes, there is nothing to say. Anyway, the court will not ask your senior brother to collect personal income tax.

Wukong is really talking, not to mention Senior Brother Hongren, even Senior Brother Xuanshuang is quite optimistic about this attitude. Can you expect other monks to have the attitude?

Therefore, the current environment of Zen Buddhism is so sad that those who are not culture cannot see it, and those who are culture do not care.

But those monks who are not educated are foolish enough to see the crisis, but it's a matter of vision. But monks like Senior Brother Xuanshuang who are indifferent to everything are really cheating.

Because they were not unable to see the crisis, but they didn't think that those things were crisis at all? If they changed to a county magistrate, the so-called thing had nothing to do with my monk. Huangmei County was divided, and the so-called thing had nothing to do with my monk. A group of Taoists came to block our door. The so-called Taoists had something to do with my monk.

It is called a monk, free and easy, and it is called jumping out of the three realms and not in the five elements.

But if you are so noble, you are still alive? Since the four elements are empty and the five aggregates do not exist, then why don’t you starve to death as soon as possible and then go directly to the Western Paradise to enjoy happiness?

Sect, faith, after all, is in the word "believers"

If there was something like Senior Brother Xuanshuang who didn’t care about the believers at all, there was something to say. No matter how brave Zhou Shaode was, would he really dare to go into Zhengjue Temple openly and kill all these bald people?

Impossible, he is a stick, not a beard

This is the current situation of Zen Buddhism. After hearing the words of Senior Brother Xuanshuang, Wukong felt a chill in his heart. Just as the famous saying goes, there are powerful enemies in front of me, and behind me are companions of energy. I must fight against both at the same time.

No wonder Master Daoxin refused to allow him to come to Huangmei. First, Master Daoxin does not want to let him go. Part of the difficulties Huangmei County is facing is due to offending Zhou Shaode. As for the second, Master Daoxin is probably able to do anything when facing such difficulties, and Master Daoxin probably doesn't think he has the ability to change this matter.

Yes, even if Wukong now controls most of the private salt transactions in Jiangnan Road, Huainan Road, Shannan Road, and Qianzhong Road, even if he is the actual controller of the Jiangzhou underworld, there are more than two thousand gangsters under his command. But then?

Can he still make senior brother Xuanshuang change their ideas, who is calm and gentle in everything except becoming a Buddha?

The words were filled with gushing in Wukong's heart, but even if Wukong followed Senior Brother Xuanshuang into the mountain gate of Zhengjue Temple, he was actually talking about this Senior Brother Xuanshuang in the end.

There is something to say. This senior brother said that it is not important. There is still something to say. Can you still do it? In addition to using money to clamp him, you can also do it. But even if you don’t give Huangmei Zhengjue Temple a penny from now on, can’t Senior Brother Xuanshuang take the monks back to Dalin Temple with the monks?

In short, after all, the matter was broken by the idiot Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan. If the Chinese monks still had to knock on the door of believers with bowls for every meal and then read, "Send it a little bit", the monks would not have become what they are now.

Zen Buddhism is like this, it won't work until it's changed.

Wukong asked the sky, and felt a sigh in his heart that Li Tang could now be sure to unify the world, which means that the continuous decline of monk status has become a foregone conclusion. But now most monks are still immersed in the glory of the Buddhist temple in the past and do not want to change.

Although Zen Buddhism has made some changes under the leadership of Master Daoxin, in Wukong's opinion, these are far from enough. As the saying goes, you have to pick up soft persimmons, but now as a person, you will definitely be pinched. If you still don't make any changes, such as making the weaving harder or getting a little thorny.

Then you deserve to be pinched to death

But then, if you want to change it, should you change it?

"Junior Brother Wukong..."

Just when Goku felt his body full of strength and shouldn't have done something, he suddenly heard a familiar call. Following Goku, he felt a sturdy figure holding his shoulder. Then Goku heard the man say to him, "You kid come so late?"

"Senior Brother Zhixing?" Wukong seemed to come back to his senses after being tugged by Zhixing.

"Didn't you say you came here early this morning? It's been delayed until now..." Monk Zhixing asked Wukong with concern.

"No, it's just..." Wukong smiled and planned to explain the current situation to Monk Zhixing, he saw that Monk Zhixing's big hand had reached in front of him.

"Since you're here, take it out quickly."

"Take it out?" Goku asked strangely.

"My junior brother Daoguang and I were shocked, each of us was fifty taels." Monk Zhixing slapped Wukong on the shoulder hard, "I said you kid won't plan to pay the debt."

"Of course not this." Wukong smiled at Monk Zhixing with a strong heart, "In this way, Senior Brother Zhixing and Senior Brother Daoguang, you will go back to the county town with me later. Junior Brother, I will show you something."

"That's right, fifty stans are a big number." Monk Zhixing looked excited, "We really have to go and see it in person."

Oh, I'm not talking about money

Looking at the money-loving monk in front of him, Wukong sighed in his heart
