Chapter Thirty-One
That night, Xu You stayed in Benwu Temple.
If they hadn't fallen asleep in the Winter Solstice, they should have received news now that they had been locked in the temple by Zhu Daorong. Tomorrow, the Buddhist sects will come to visit, and there will be many people. If there are many people, they may find an opportunity to sneak in.
No words all night.
The next morning, Xu You woke up listening to the bells of the Buddhist temple. A little novice monk had prepared his toiletries. As soon as he cleaned his hands and face, Zhu Wuchen pushed the door and came in, put his hands together, bowed and said, "Great Vibhasha!"
Xu You coughed a few times, his face paler than last night, and said, "Master Wuchen, can you be safe after leaving for many years?"
Zhu Wuchen was still so tall and stout, but his face was much softer and calmer than he had back then. He walked over to support Xu You, and his voice was not as loud as a bell. He said, "The Sect Master asked me to take care of Davibhasha." He said, and was a little worried, and said, "Your injuries..."
Xu You forced a smile and said, "It's okay!"
"The remnants of six days, all deserve to die!"
Seeing the pain in Xu You's eyes, Zhu Wuchen was full of murderous intent. The honest and flawless little monk, who was clear and clear, was finally stained with this ugly world and turned into another appearance.
"Master Zhu, don't be angry." Xu You said softly: "You have achieved success in your practice, don't you know that life and death have a fate? If I die for six days, I will definitely be the result of this life, so why bother with me?"
Zhu Wuchen experienced life and death separation in Qiantang. When his mood was ups and downs, he was enlightened by Xu You and realized that he returned to Jinling to practice hard for five years. He was finally promoted to the young master. He was covered in copper and iron bones and was invulnerable to swords and guns. He could be regarded as one of the top figures in the world. But when he heard Xu You's statement, he immediately stopped his hands and listened respectfully, saying: "Yes!"
The two came to the backyard, where hundreds of monks stood, all of whom were disciples who followed the sect leaders or famous monks. When they saw Xu You whispering and talking, they obviously recognized him.
Zhu Wuchen now has a high status in Benwu Sect, and even the monks are not low. Seeing him by Xu You's side, the yard is covered with white clothes, and suddenly becomes silent. Everyone stands separately on both sides, leaving a passage in the middle. Zhu Wuchen supports Xu You with both hands, with a pious and respectful attitude, which clearly treats him with a polite and courteous manner, which arouses the curiosity of countless people. Many people secretly look up and watch, mostly with confusion and surprise in their eyes.
After entering the meditation hall, there were dozens of people sitting in it, including old, young, monks, and nobles. They even saw a thin curtain in the corner, where a graceful figure could be vaguely seen inside. Two maids stood outside the curtain, and they had seen it next to Princess An Yuxiu of Danyang.
It turned out that this debate not only involved monks, but also many royal families and clans. An Yuxiu came to watch the battle today, and may have made an agreement with Zhu Daorong in advance, not showing up or making a sound, but as long as her people were there, it would be a great encouragement and support to Xu You. Everyone in the Zen Hall all looked at Xu You, and Zhu Daorong sat on the middle cushion, smiling and greeted Xu You to sit beside him, and on the other side was Zhu Wulu!
Zhu Wulu lost to Qiantang and suffered the cruel and terrifying torture of Du Mingyu. He was destroyed from his body to his mind and almost turned into a useless person. However, Xu You could feel that he seemed to have recovered his martial arts and improved a lot. Although he had not yet reached the level of a young master, he was not far behind!
The Taoist sect has the Taoist scriptures, and Buddhism naturally has the supreme secret method. This is not surprising. Who can make people have a good master who is the master? Xu You just showed a slightly surprised look on his face just right, and then smiled and signaled to each other, kneeling down and sitting down with difficulty.
Zhu Wuchen sat in the middle of the two sides of the meditation hall. He was the young master and Zhu Fayan's direct disciple. He said that he was not the same as Zhu Wulu, but the treatment between the two was very different.
But this does not mean that there are too many young masters under Zhu Daorong's command to burn fire and do odd jobs, but that Buddhism emphasizes qualifications and inheritance more than Taoism, or the Buddhist scriptures are carefully studied and researched and innovated, and does not pay much attention to martial arts cultivation. Therefore, He Ru, in the tenth year of the Northern Wei Dynasty, followed Tanchen, the leader of the Northern Sect, and never practiced martial arts. Tanchen never forced him. This is the reason.
Xu You secretly speculated that Zhu Daorong intended to train Zhu Wulu to become the next leader of the Benwu Sect? But this is unreasonable. Zhu Daorong was in full swing in the spring and autumn, and stood in the first-grade mountain gate with his feet. He should have no life for more than ten years. Now that he showed such thoughts, would it be too early to pull out the seedlings and encourage growth?
You should know that Buddhism is not a monolithic part. The six schools and seven sects have been entangled for many years, and there are only a lot of dirty things than Taoism. Zhu Wuluo will never be able to convince the public, regardless of his seniority or practice. Now he is eager to introduce it to all parties to examine it. He may have a big fall one day.
Zhu Daorong first introduced Xu You, expressing his intention to respect him as the Great Vibhasha for fairness. Anyone who thinks it is inappropriate, from a young age to the sect leader can argue in person. If he cannot argue in person, he will not be allowed to deliberately find fault afterwards. If he is caught, he will be severely punished.
Then he introduced to him the people in the hall, the other six sect leaders of the six families and seven sects, and several famous monks of the world, but they were not Tan Qian. I don’t know whether they would not give Zhu Daorong face or the person was not in Jinling. In addition, there were some nobles and officials sitting in the west side of the meditation hall, dressed in gorgeous clothes, which was much brighter and more beautiful than the white clothes on the north and south side.
Xu You treated him with face, but someone asked him to take a few more glances, which was Yu Fahu, who was known as the white horse in the valley. Yu Fahu's name has been called calloused since he was reborn, but he did not expect to meet in such an occasion.
Looking at the joke master in front of him who is not inferior to Gu Yun's demeanor, Xu You has a good impression of it. It is not uncommon for people to be good at joking. What is strange is that everyone knows the good at joking and kindness, and everyone praises it. That is really a great Taoist practice.
Humor is the only way to arouse others' favor in that era!
Xu You nodded kindly. Yu Fahu obviously didn't know why Xu You's attitude towards him was completely different from others, but he also gave a positive response very freely.
There was not much gossip next. Someone was dissatisfied with the title of Xu You, an outsider, who was entitled to the title of Davibhasha. He immediately stood up and asked questions, sang the Buddha's name, and said, "Dare you ask me, I will have any right or wrong?"
Xu You asked back, "What do the mage think?"
"The meaning of the word comes from the beginning, and the hole enters the subtle, and can explore the deep and hidden things. Our younger generations only need to analyze the freedom, so how can we talk about right and wrong?"
Xu You shook his head and said, "The mage is so bad!"
The monk smiled slightly, and could see vaguely in his eyes, saying, "Please give me some advice!"
Why didn't Xu You understand his sinister intention? In today's world, most of the classics that can be circulated are translated and compiled by the ancestors of all generations of Buddhism. In addition, the explanations and principles of countless amazing people were explained and summarized, so he asked Xu You all the sects and sects, and Buddhism flourished. So he came up and asked Xu You if these classics were truthful, and then he stood in the support sect. If Xu You wanted to argue, he could only stand in the opposition. But to refute it, it was not him who refuted it, but the ancestors of all generations of Buddhism. Didn't he offend everyone in the Zen hall?
This pit was dug casually, but it was invisible. Why did Taoist and Buddhism never win the past century? This is the reason. Buddhism, no matter how old or young, is required to learn the knowledge of wisdom. The skill in verbalism is far better than that of Taoist. The gap is like the Wudaokou Vocational and Technical College and Pang Gezhuang University, which is simply incomparable.
Xu You said slowly: "It is better to praise the teachings and make you happy. The drums are playing, so why not come first? The master was trapped at the bottom of the well and could not see the vastness of the rivers. The essence of Buddhism is far more vast than that of the rivers. The "Agama" was popular in the Han Dynasty. Who knew the "Prajna" at that time? Could it be that those who came after the interpretation of the "Prajna Sutra" were not as good as those in the "Agama Sutra"? Because of Prajna, there were six schools and seven sects. Do you think that the ability of the Sect Master Zhu is not as good as those in the "Prajna Sutra" before understanding the "Prajna Sutra"? "
If you want me to offend the monks, I will offend the monks. Zhu Daorong was able to unify the monks, so he naturally had a profound attainment in Buddhist scriptures. He must have made great contributions that had not been published by his predecessors, using his spear to attack his shield. This is the art of debate.
In fact, when debating something, it doesn’t matter who the truth is on. What’s important is how to use the tactics to refute the other party speechlessly. Even if you have something to say, you have nothing to say. In the eyes of the melon-eating crowd, you will lose!
"You!" The monk glared at him, but could not speak. He could not say that Zhu Daorong was better than Xianda, so he had to sit down with his sleeves and get angry.
Another monk put his hands together and spoke: "I would like to ask you, can you translate the sutras? If not, how can you promote the doctrines, regardless of the order? If so, can you tell me how to translate the sutras so that I can not lose my true meaning, and can easily understand it, and facilitate the spread of the Dharma and all people?"
Xu You smiled and said, "I have never translated the scriptures, so I can read the three collections of classics carefully, draw some small insights from them, and summarize them into six words: "Five missing books, three not easy"!"
"I hope to hear it carefully!"
Xu You coughed violently twice, looked up at Zhu Daorong. The old guy closed his eyes and sat down. He didn't know if he heard it. He knew that he was seriously injured and wanted to engage in a round-rotary battle, for fear of living for too long, wouldn't he?
Do you want to vomit more blood?
Although he has achieved great magical skills now and vomiting some blood is not harmful, he can't stand the vomiting all day long, and he feels weak. There is also a Zhan Wenjun at home. He tastes the taste of the boudoir for the first time. It's time to be obsessed with it. Don't make your husband lose his temper. I don't know if there are Liuwei Dihuang Wans...
Xu You found that somehow, once he entered Benwu Temple, his thoughts would always spread to the point where he was unreliable for no reason. At this moment, he heard the sound of jade chimes, like elegant music, like the sound of the sky, like the sound of Zen, like the singing of Sanskrit, and directly into his heart.
Legend has it that there is a magical Buddhist chime in Benwu Temple. It was a Buddhist treasure brought back from Luyeyuan by a generation of monk Faxiang during the Wei Dynasty. It was more than two feet high and three feet wide. It was made of metal and iron. It weighed more than three hundred kilograms and was priceless. After every nine sounds, it would be at the same frequency as the human heart rate, and then ordinary people could feel the solemnity and tranquility of being with Buddhism. (Note: Xuanzang was not the first monk to travel west to seek scriptures. The first one should be the Faxian in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This strange chime is in the current Vilu Temple in Nanjing. As for whether it is really so magical, the meatball has never been to 23333)
Xu You sealed all the true energy in his body in the Purple Palace with the Xuanwei of Daoxin. It can be said that there is no flaw, but it suddenly jumped twice in the resonance of this magical Buddha chime, and the true energy almost leaked out, revealing its legs.
Zhu Wuchen looked over with worry. Perhaps he was the only one who was really good for Xu You in the entire meditation hall. But with his identity, there was nothing to do on this occasion, but An Yuxiu was different. He whispered something to the maid and saw a maid walking out. After a while, two groups followed him with a brocade couch and placed it beside Xu You, holding him leaning on the couch, and then supporting his waist with a thick pillow embroidered gold and silver thread. There was also a piece of lotus embroidered satin on his legs, which made him feel much more comfortable.
The monk waited quietly without urging him. His demeanor was far superior to the one just now. After Xu You stopped cleaning up, he asked, "Please give me advice!"
Xu You looked tired, his eyes half open and half closed, and when he looked at it, he was somewhat similar to Zhu Daorong, saying: "The translation of Brahma is Han, and there are five misrepresentations: one is that all the Sanskrit words are turned down, and the Han Dynasty is followed, and this one is lost; the second is that the Buddhist scriptures are of great quality, and the Han people are good at writing, and the public is passed down, which is not incompatible with the text, and these two misrepresentations; the third is that the Buddhist scriptures are all clear, and the comments are repeated, either three or four, and they do not bother with it. Now they are denied that these three misrepresentations; the fourth is that the Buddhist scriptures have a meaning, which is like a random word, searching for the words, and the text is not different, or a thousand five hundred, and they are cut off but not preserved. These four misrepresentations; the fifth is that the matter has been completed, and it will be further connected, and the previous words have been refuted.
Then he said, and all these were eliminated, and these five lost books. However, the three masters of the Prajna Sutra were described in the face of the three masters of the Prajna Sutra, the saints must be based on the times, and the customs are easy, and the ancients are deleted to suit the present times. This is not easy; the foolish and wise are separated, and the saints are unable to reach the level of the saints, so they want to use a subtle statement above a thousand years to convey the last customs of the hundred kings, and these two are not easy; Ananda came out of the sutra and left the Buddha for a long time, and the venerable Mahakasyapa ordered the 566 masters to read the books, which are now away from a thousand years and are determined by the close intentions. The Arhats were so cautious, and the people of life and death are as ordinary as this, so how could they not know the Dharma? These three are not easy! I think that all those who translate the sutra today should be cautious about the "five lost books, three are not easy"!"
Simply put, when translating scriptures, you must allow you to adapt to the style and habits of the Middle Land in rhetoric grammar, you must omit the repetitive sentences and messy annotations that often appear in Buddhist scriptures. In addition, you must strive to adapt to the requirements and customs of different eras, different nationalities and different peoples, and without losing the original intention and original purpose of Buddhism. You can extend to future generations and spread for thousands of years.
Otherwise, how can we talk about how to confuse our opponents? If Xu You can express it in three words just for the sake of teaching, that is: faith, enlightenment, elegance!
This monk is not an ordinary monk, but Zhi Jialuo, the leader of the Xinwu Sect among the six schools and seven sects. He is also one of the famous masters of the monks of Chu. The so-called Xia Clock cannot be said to Bing. If Xu You said this to Zhu Wuchen, if he could convince the other party, he would really see a ghost. It can be said to Zhi Jialuo, the meaning and effect were completely different. He was originally a master of the translation scriptures. He encountered various difficulties in the translation process. The more he read, the more he felt that Xu You's "Five Losses and Three Not Easy" method was extremely wonderful. He explained the true meaning of how to translate and how to spread it clearly. Not only was theories profound, but he could also immediately put it into practice. This is a good method!
Little did he know that Xu You directly stole the academic achievements of Shi Daoan from the Seal Hand Bodhisattva, and it would be perfect for such a powerful man who is unparalleled in the world to show off.
Zhi Jialuo was convinced and said, "I heard that Mr. Xu was the six-character teacher of Master Zhu. Today, he used the six-character teacher to awaken the little monk. He was also the six-character teacher of the little monk. Master Zhu wanted to add the title of honor, but Xinwuzong had no objection anymore!"
After the victory of the army, the monks dared not underestimate Xu You anymore. They looked at each other. After half an hour, someone started to ask questions again. Xu You responded one by one when he saw the move. Three days in a row, two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon, he fought against the monks without any fear, and his reputation once again caused a sensation in Jinling.
On the evening of the first day, Yu Fahu walked out of Benwu Temple with a laugh. The common people who had heard the sound had long been surrounded and asked, "Langjun Yu, how is the argument inside? Is there anything nice to hear?"
Although Yu family is one of the four top clans, Yu Fahu is good at joking and approachable, and others are all different from him. Yu Fahu caresses his belly and says, "There are not good things, but there are many delicious things."
Everyone was confused and stared at him leaving in a daze. Who would have thought that the next day, this guy came out of the temple just at noon, untied his wide robe, exposed his white chest muscles, lay on the side of the roadside, held his cheek with his hands, closed his eyes and basked in the sun, which was extremely comfortable.
Someone asked curiously: "Langjun Yu, why are you?"
"I'm too full today, I have to post a book!"
Now everyone stopped obeying, some people caught their hands and some people caught their feet, and they kept shaking, saying, "Mr. Lang, if you don't explain it clearly, we will throw you down the river!"
The moat was beside it, but it was really impossible to climb up if it was thrown down. Yu Fahu patted his belly and praised it, "Listen to Xu Wei's argument, it is like the world's delicacies entering my stomach. But in just one day and half a day, the belly is full and there is no room for nothing. This is not a filth like you, but a full belly of knowledge stolen from Xu Wei Zhi. If you don't have a good sun, what should you do if the mold insect bites it?"
Everyone scattered, but the jokes about Yu Fahu's book spread still spread, which added countless seasonings to Xu You's reputation as sunny.
On the night of the third day, the curtain fell, and the six families and seven sects reached a consensus to respect Xu You as the Great Vibhasha. Xu You was exhausted and asked Zhu Daorong to make a request:
I want to meet Tanchen!
Chapter completed!
