Chapter 1403: Propagating the Dharma(1/2)
After reciting the magic mantra of rebirth in the Pure Land, Shaolin Abbot Zen Master Faxiang said: "Fa Yuan, Fa Zheng, two junior brothers, please welcome back the Dharma body of Master Shi Yi and send it to the merit Talin.
Three days later, I will hold a water and land Dharma Assembly and respectfully send my uncle to attain Western Paradise.”
"Abide by the abbot's order!"
The two middle-aged monks came out and walked to Jia Huan, bowed and took the porcelain jar.
Go towards the mountain gate.
Afterwards, the abbot Faxiang led three old Shaolin monks to come forward, folded their hands at Jia Huan, and bowed, "It is a blessing for Shaolin to be able to get the arrival of the Supreme Emperor and the Prince today.
I asked the prince to be kind to you, and I would like to meet the emperor."
Jia Huan nodded and said, "Please, masters."
The four of them followed Jia Huan and walked to the front of the imperial court.
From the Yuan and Wei monk Faguo kneeled down to the king and queen on the grounds that "I am not worshiping the emperor, but actually worshiping the Buddha." By the time of the Song Dynasty, it was common for monks to kneel down to the king.
Therefore, the three Shaolin monks, both Dharma images, also bowed their knees and bowed.
After he knelt down, Emperor Longzheng ordered: "All monks with great virtues and virtues do not need to be bound by common etiquette, please get up."
The four old monks stopped politely, stood up and ceremoniously said: "The Dharma appearance of the poor monk (nature balance, nature compassion, nature Zen), and I have met the Supreme Emperor."
Emperor Longzheng nodded slightly and said, "I have been traveling to the south this time to visit at least the forest, just to send the Dharma body of the Great Monk of Shinyi.
A great monk from Shaolin came from Shaolin, but he helped me a lot, both as a teacher and a friend.
I know that he always thought of Shaolin, so I sent him back to the temple."
"Amitabha!"
The four old monks chanted the Buddha's name together, and the oldest monk, the divine monk, said tremblingly: "If a junior brother of Shin-shen can get such a prosperous encounter with the emperor, it is not in vain for him to practice in the world."
Emperor Longzheng sighed and said, "The great monk was dismissed and saved me and was transformed. I really felt sorry for him.
Because he knew that his mind was promoting the Dharma of reciting Buddha, he ordered Prince Zhongyi Jia Huan to deal with this matter.
If all the monks have doubts, you can look for Jia Huan.”
When the four old monks heard this, their eyes brightened...
However, he can do things in the end. The abbot of the Dharma-Shadow bowed and said, "The highest level of Buddha that the Master of Nature has cultivated into the world is to assist the Holy Lord.
Being able to be a saint is a blessing for the uncle of his nature and Shaolin.
Although the uncle of the master has already transformed, he did not die in failure, but he has achieved success in his practice and has attained the Pure Land.
The Supreme Emperor doesn't have to be heartbroken.
As for promoting Buddhism...
I also asked the Supreme Emperor and the Prince to enter the shabby temple first, eat some vegetarian food, and rest for a while before saying anything.”
Jia Huan looked at Emperor Longzheng, and Emperor Longzheng nodded slightly and said, "Good."
...
Shaolin Temple is located in the dense forests of the Shaoshi Mountain, hence the name.
Over the past thousand years, Shaolin Temple has been burned several times, but it has become increasingly grand.
At this point, the main hall of Shaolin Temple is majestic and majestic.
There is a floor on each side, with the bell tower in the east and the drum tower in the west, which is also extraordinary.
Every morning and evening, the sound of morning bells and drums sound.
Solemn and peaceful.
After entering the Main Hall, you can see that there are three golden Buddhas enshrined in the Main Hall.
They are offering sacrifices to Sakyamuni, Medicine Buddha, and Amitabha Buddha.
The wall behind the screen wall is Guanyin, and the Eighteen Arhats are enshrined on both sides.
Jia Huan pushed Emperor Longzheng's golden car, as if he was visiting his own back garden. After watching it for a week, he smiled and said, "I heard that all martial arts in the world are from Shaolin, and I don't know if there are any magical secrets hidden in this Great Hall.
Will the Sutra Pavilion be allowed to enter?"
Seeing Jia Huan turn his head and ask himself, the abbot Zen Master Faxiang smiled indifferently and said, "Shaolin has always opened the door of convenience and welcomes all the guests."
The prince has extraordinary magical skills and becomes a saint. The "White Lotus and Golden Body Sutra" is also known as the world's number one magical skill for refining the body.
But if you are interested in the martial arts of strengthening your body, what's wrong with watching it?"
It is related to the promotion of Buddhism and the prosperity of Buddhism. Not to mention letting Jia Huan read it, even if Jia Huan copied it, it would not be necessary...
Jia Huan laughed and said nothing, but looked at Emperor Longzheng and said, "Your Majesty, let Shaolin prepare some vegetarian meals. Have you rested after you have eaten?"
After several hours of exhaustion of carriages and horses, plus the time of the trip on the road, Emperor Longzheng was indeed tired, nodded and said, "Sure."
Jia Huan slapped his forehead and said, "I almost forgot the big thing..." After saying that, after attracting everyone's attention, he looked at the Dharma and said, "Master, I heard from the snake girl that in terms of cultivating the foundation and cultivating the essence, and cultivating bones and changing muscles, there is no one in the world who can surpass Shaolin.
Your Majesty was slandered before and was injured. You Shaolin will show you?
Don't worry, you will never suffer any losses."
"Amitabha!"
After hearing this, the abbot of the Dharma Xiang looked at each other with the three monks, he nodded slowly and said, "I dare not speak lies. Although there are indeed some minor things, I dare not speak well..."
Emperor Longzheng raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "No matter whether it succeeds or fails, Shaolin will make great contributions."
After hearing this, Faxiang bowed and said, "In this way, after the meal, I would like to ask the Zen Master Xing to take action."
From all over the temple, I am the most accomplished by my uncle's "Yi Jin Jing".
The face of the monk Zen seemed to have dried up, and he could not tell how old he was. He nodded slowly and said tremblingly: "I will follow the abbot's words."
...
Outside quiet, Jia Huan paced back and forth, his face a little solemn.
Seeing him like this, the abbot of Faxiang advised: "Your Majesty just don't worry. Master Cheng has been practicing the method of resurrection and prosperity for nearly a hundred years. The technique of Xinglin is not inferior to anyone in the world.
There are actually flesh and bones, and the magic of the living dead.
Although he may not be able to solve the worries of the emperor, he will definitely be able to cultivate the emperor's dragon body well and will never lose it."
When Jia Huan heard this, he nodded and said, "I have also heard from Snake Niang about Master Cheng Zen..."
The abbot of the Faxiang smiled and said, "She Niang is the saint of Miaojiang, and all the snake Niangs of all generations are among the most powerful martial arts masters in the world.
However, the saints of Miaojiang in all dynasties have cursed and are difficult to survive in the world.
Unexpectedly, in this life, Snake Girl can get help from the prince and relieve Snake Girl's disaster.
If you exceed this disaster, the snake girl and the white dragon will be invincible in the world!"
Jia Huan raised his eyebrows and said, "Really and false? At that time, Wu Dang Tianji real person said that he could even take over if he asked the snake girl to take Bailong with him..."
"snort!"
"hehe……"
"Good, good!"
It seems that the dispute over Buddhism and Taoism is still serious. After hearing what Jia Huan said, the monks who had been silent all expressed sarcastic voices.
The oldest Zen Master Xingheng said tremblingly: "If you talk about it alone, Wudang Tianji Zhenren is indeed the best in the world, and he is the closest person to Yuhua climbing to the sky.
However, the white dragon in Miaojiang has become a spiritual beast for hundreds of years and has almost become a dragon.
In addition, it is not a false statement to cooperate with Snake Niang with the secret method of Miaojiang.
If I guess correctly, what Taoist Tianji said must be against Snake Niang and Bai Long…”
Jia Huan thought about it, but didn't think too clearly. He shook his head indifferently and said, "Whatever he is, no matter how powerful he is, he will have to bear the consequences if he dares to do whatever he wants.
So what if he is very good at martial arts? He dares to run one step, and I will kill a pair of Taoist priests. I will dare to run two steps. I will kill ten stinky Taoist priests!
If his daughter hadn't become the concubine of this prince, this time, the old man would have to commit suicide!"
This is too much information...
One sentence is heaven, and the other sentence is earth.
The last sentence, I really don’t know if it’s good or bad…
The three monks looked at each other, with excitement and worry in their eyes...
What was excited was that the Taoist ancestor seemed to have caused trouble.
Although he lost a daughter, the prince was still dissatisfied with him.
What is worried about is...
If the court can treat the supreme heavenly secrets of the martial arts world like this today, wouldn’t it be like this tomorrow?
Although Shaolin Wudang is the lord of Mount Tai in the martial arts world, it is really vulnerable to the imperial power...
If you really want to threaten the lives of monks and monks in the world, these monks in Shaolin can only sacrifice their lives to feed the tiger like the Taoist Tianji...
To be continued...
