"I wonder if Mr. Shen taught me about my new and old acquaintance?"

Shen Zhezi asked loudly. When he heard his question, everyone else turned to Zhu Fashen, hoping that this monk with superb Buddhist principles would make another discussion. Based on their achievements, they only felt that this Buddhist verse had a kind of insight into everything, and was open-minded outside the world, and after careful consideration, it was difficult to argue.

Zhu Fashen's thoughts were interrupted, and his expression was quite unexpected. This Buddhist verse touched him deeply, but if he talked about comments, he no longer knew where to start.

Zhu Fashen was afraid to speak, but Shen Zhezi was not surprised. Buddhism is not localized nowadays, and the lack of important scriptures is an innate flaw, which is insufficient to form a complete meaning of preaching scriptures. Important scriptures such as the Diamond Sutra and the Lotus Sutra are not translated and passed down now.

Therefore, people in Jiangdong often explore the understanding of Buddhism from a metaphysical perspective. Metaphysics had reached a peak in the Western Jin Dynasty. From this perspective, there were still some shortcomings in interpreting it. A rough Buddhist system would lead to the phenomenon of thousands of meanings and many Dharmas. In Jiangdong alone, there were six schools and seven sects.

Such a chaotic situation set a tone for the localization and development of Buddhism. Buddhism is the most complex religion with factions, with hundreds of schools of thought, many different opinions, and even attacking each other.

In other words, the current eminent monks like Zhu Fashen are still confused about their understanding of Buddhism, and they are confused and make people clear. Although this method of meaning is temporary expedient, it also forms a style of localization of foreign theory like Buddhism.

Even if the Buddhist scriptures in later generations have been polished and mature, this phenomenon is still difficult to completely eliminate. It cannot be said that this method is superficial, but can only be said that the local culture is tenacious.

The great charm of the Buddhist verse of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng is not that it has a superior interpretation of Buddhism. The reason why it can be spread throughout the world is probably that it can make people understand something. In comparison, the Buddhist verse of the monk Shenxiu seems not transcendent enough, not out of the world, and there are still things in the heart. You must wipe it diligently to avoid dust.

If you understand it from a metaphysical perspective, the Buddhist verse of Monk Shenxiu is a little hard and pragmatic. However, the poem Huineng has increased sharply, and the mystery and essence are extremely profound. To interpret it in common words, I know that Monk Shenxiu is quite awesome, while the poem of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng is very awesome.

Even the so-called accomplishments of monks are just like this. As for those Buddhist enthusiasts, it is probably equivalent to the jokes that "Young man asks Zen Master" that are widely circulated in later generations.

He was watched by everyone, and although he didn't know how to comment in his heart, Zhu Fashen could not remain silent for a long time. After pondering for a while, he sighed and said, "Shen Lang had some awareness before, but later he realized it. I don't know what to do to make a certain understanding. Everyone who hears it will have their own understanding."

I would rather admit that this Buddhist verse is exquisite and beyond the scope of my ability to guide me. So the onlookers had different reactions, but it was obviously difficult for them to accept this result.

"Mr. Shen said nothing, but I still have some gains."

Shen Zhezi smiled slightly, and had no intention of calming down. He looked around everyone and then said with a smile: "Anyone who admires Buddha is the first level to keep his actions, the second level to keep his words, the third level to keep his words, and the second level to be obsessed with the appearance. If you are a person who can practice and follow the scriptures, it is considered to be the best. As for me, you should have the Buddha nature of the body, and the ordinary people may feel that they are full of interesting things. For me, it is still a theory that is equal to the lower level. I wonder if Shen Gong has any objections?"

When Zhu Fashen heard this, he smiled bitterly. Even though he was determined to refute it, he was suffering from the fact that there was no Buddhist saying to quote and refute it. He just hesitated a little and said, "It should be so."

"You are equal to the Buddha's path, and you can understand the meaning of being nothing but a word, or holding gifts and giving money and only carving gold and earth, and then the low-flowing things, how can you understand the wonderfulness of the flashing nature of Buddha? How dare you talk about the Buddha's words in front of me!"

Shen Zhezi dared to speak out loudly about Buddha nature because no one now has Buddha nature. The convenient method of "everyone can become a Buddha" is not even a mature view accepted by everyone. Since he has seized a high ground in this theory, why does Shen Zhezi have to keep a low profile? To make everyone ashamed to discuss Buddha in front of him in the future, he can keep his ears clean.

When everyone heard this, their expressions were resentful, but even Zhu Fashen could not impress the other party with Buddhist principles. What could they say in this regard?

Seeing that everyone was silent, Shen Zhezi sneered twice, then left. Before leaving, he spat at the feet of the Wang brothers without hesitation. Although spitting everywhere was not hygienic, the contempt brought by this action was full of contempt. For a moment, the Wang people changed their colors, but they could only stand there and look at them with their eyebrows.

Yu Tiao watched Shen Zhezi and fought with everyone, feeling happy. Seeing Shen Zhezi leaving, he hurriedly chased after him. Walking on the road, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Donald Shen is a famous monk in the capital. Mr. Zhezi's husband can actually impress him in this way, so it's hard to say a word. After today, the man's reputation will surely be passed down to the capital!"

After hearing this, Shen Zhezi couldn't help laughing in his heart. Even if he didn't understand Buddhism, he felt that the profound attainments of Zhu Dharma were really hard to say. It was probably because his family's origins had developed a good metaphysical cultivation, and then he used analogy to quote Buddhist scriptures, and his conversation gave people a refreshing feeling. However, this Buddhist attainment that was completely dependent on metaphysics was completely illusory and disillusioned, and could only provide people with a set of theories that escape reality and act inaction, which was not very clever.

In the final analysis, he was not very interested in this set of Buddhist theories. Even if he admired and admired some eminent monks in his heart, it was only aimed at the character and ethics of this person, not the theory. As for Zhu Fashen, it was obviously not listed here.

This kind of so-called eminent monk has a particularly annoying appearance. He wanders among the powerful and powerful families and adopts other families' talents to promote the style of talking more. Even those who truly believe in Buddhism cannot agree with this trend: "You are the one who divides the Dharma and does not use sincerity, but seeks offerings for the glitz!"

There are many turtles in the water. The more chaotic the times are, the more people who are false and deceive the world wander around the world and invite fame and money. Just like this, Zhu Fa is deep, people mock him for traveling to the rich family outside. This man looked at him as a rich family, and I saw him as a tent. But to be honest, the most in this era is a tent. How many families have he been to? He pointed to a deer as a horse and made a false pretense. Shen Zhezi didn't scold him for being blind and confused, and he also left some face to the other party.

However, after this incident, Zhu Fashen saw Shen Zhezi in Jiankang City in the future and would probably have to walk around and avoid a place. Even if he was angry, he would not dare to say it, otherwise he would slap himself in the face and lose his elegance.

After leaving, Shen Zhezi lost the mood to visit the garden, but because there was no one around him, he was afraid of getting along with Yu Tiao, so he walked into a small pavilion by the pond to sit quietly. Occasionally, when people who passed by walked here, their expressions were a little abnormal, either bypassing the place, or pointing in the distance, and few people came forward to say hello and greet him, and Shen Zhezi was also happy to be quiet.

I sat there for about half an hour. In the afternoon, the maid of the royal palace, Yun Zhi, who had disappeared before, walked back again. After entering the pavilion, he apologized repeatedly, and then said, "The king is waiting in the hall. Please follow me."

Hearing this, Shen Zhezi and Yu Tiao stood up and followed Yunzhi to the main hall. They also met other people who were walking to the main hall along the way, but because of the previous incident, their attitude towards Shen Zhezi was a little distant and cold. Shen Zhezi had no intention of gaining the attention of people in this place where overseas Chinese gathered, so they didn't care much about it, which made others feel uncomfortable, but they still criticized him without saying a word. No matter how he calculated, he wouldn't feel depressed.

When he entered the hall again, Shen Zhezi saw that there were new arrangements in the hall. Some useless furnishings were removed, but nearly a hundred seats were placed in the magnanimous hall. The original couch covered by screens in the hall was also sitting there, and it was the protagonist of today's King Donghai.

Some of the above-mentioned seats were already sitting there, either an important official from the Taiwan Provincial Department like Dai Miao, or a famous scholar like Yang Chen. The seats of the Wang family brothers were also relatively high. When Shen Zhezi walked into the hall, his face became gloomy again, as if he was dead.

"Please take two of you."

The maid Yunzhi didn't talk much at this moment, so she led Shen Zhezi and Yu Tiao to the Se Xun next to the Wang brothers.

Seeing this arrangement, Shen Zhezi was slightly surprised. Then he looked at the King of East Sea in the hall. He saw King of East Sea also staring at him, with a gentle expression and kindness, which surprised Shen Zhezi a little. It was naturally impossible to hide the previous storm from his master, but Shen Zhezi's performance was quite ostentatious, but it would be impossible to win the favor of King of East Sea because of this.

Although he was a little strange in his heart, Shen Zhezi simply sat down in the seat. As soon as he sat down, he heard Wang Biaozhi beside him snorting coldly, as if he was extremely unhappy. At this time, Shen Zhezi became calm and smiled at the Wang brothers, looking generous and unconcerned.

There are many guests this time, and only a small number of people who can enter the hall and be personally received by the King of East China Sea. Others are either difficult to enter, or they don’t want to do so at all. For example, Yu Yi, the youngest Yu family who arrived earlier than Shen Zhezi and others, has no idea where he has wandered, and Shen Zhezi has never seen him at all.

When everyone was in the seat, King Donghai laughed a few words in the hall, and then ordered people to pass on the meal. Not long after, many servants and maids came from outside the hall and shuttled between the seats, serving meals, wine, butterflies, etc.

Nowadays, the taste of the north and south is quite large. Shen Zhezi is not picky about the noodles and the rice soup and fish. The staple foods of Shen Zhezi is not picky. He is a little hungry anyway. He is just a little incompetent in the drink butterfly. He has a slightly muttony smell and is too oily. He just stops by tasting it lightly.

Wang Biaozhi looked at Shen Zhezi frequently on the table, and finally couldn't help but sarcastically said, "Can raccoons get used to northern food?"

After hearing this, Shen Zhezi sneered: "The Taibao also wants to make a clever Wu language. The southerners eat the north. What's so surprising?"

"You are also worthy of Yu Taibao?" Wang Biao suddenly said disdainful.

"Peach and plum trees do not speak, but they will make their own paths. Those who have ambition follow the virtuous traces. As for the dogs guarding the house, they are used to barking in the courtyard, which is rare and strange."

Shen Zhezi replied with a sneer.

When Wang and his brothers heard this, they looked ashamed and angry, but they had to admit that they could not gain the upper hand in words and only looked coldly on the mat.

Since he was purified, Shen Zhezi was too lazy to pay attention to these people. It was important to fill his stomach. There was no more twists and turns in the meal. But just as he put down the tableware, he heard the maid Yun Zhi whisper in his ear: "If the man has finished the meal, can he leave the table temporarily? If there is a noble person to invite him?"
