God and mystery

Chapter 241 Going Astray
When Master Jingxian came to the meditation room, he suddenly became more irritable. Usually, this place is extremely quiet. Every time he recited the scriptures and recited the Buddha, he could make his heart extremely peaceful, eliminate worries, and let go of greed, anger, and ignorance. , Enter the empty place, and hear the wonder of freedom.

But when he came in today, he suddenly felt that the Zen room was filthy everywhere, and those dark corners, which usually didn't even accumulate a little dust, were now in his eyes, but they seemed to be hiding some ghosts, phantoms, or hearts. The emptiness caused by disturbing thoughts.

There was an old monk in the Zen room, Master Guandao of the Four Masters of Lingyin, who was reciting Buddhist scriptures at this time, but with the sound of Buddhist teachings, Master Jingxian felt a pain in his head gradually, and those Buddhist teachings The phonology of the song seems to be different from the previous method of chanting.

"Brother Guan Dao, can you feel the abnormality in the meditation room?"

Master Jingxian interrupted Master Guandao's chanting, he really felt that when the other party chanted the Buddha, the rhyme was too weird.

Master Guan Tao has a pale beard, full forehead, and is wearing a light red cassock.Hearing Master Jingxian's voice, Master Guandao stopped chanting.

"When I recite the Dharma, how can I interrupt the voice of the Buddha?"

"What is the abnormality that the younger brother is talking about? There is no abnormality here."

"Junior brother, didn't you go to Yinping Niangzi Temple, please go to the Yulong Taoist Temple with the lady of the Yue family, and verify the matter of the Phoenix Mountain monster, why are you back now? Could it be that you have already been there?"

Master Jingxian shook his head, but his eyes carefully observed his senior brother: "Using the technique of Arhat's foreknowledge, I learned that going to Yulong Taoist Temple, life and death will be unpredictable, and the devilish energy in front of me prevents me from peeking into the future."

Master Guan Tao frowned: "There is such a thing? Yulong Taoist Temple is the southern holy place of the Quanzhen sect of Taoism. Although it is not as good as the Chongyang Palace in the north, it is also a place where Taoists gather. How can there be demonic energy?"

Master Jingxian: "The demonic energy may not necessarily come from the Yulong Taoist Temple, maybe someone interfered with it."

"Actually, the man in white who came to Lingyin Temple that day, I don't think he is a monk of Yulong Taoist Academy, but he does have the aura of the Quanzhen sect in him, and he is powerful. Since we say so, we can only go to confirm it. "

"So, I decided to come back, gather the strength of the three senior brothers, and carry out the prediction of Arhat together with me."

Master Jingxian was speaking, and suddenly found that the image of Master Guandao in front of him was blurred for a moment. He raised his hand, but did not rub his eyes.

"Brother, what is this?"

Master Guan Dao was also puzzled, and Master Jingxian used his Dharma Eye to look inside and outside the meditation room. As he looked at it, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. In fact, his Dharma Eye did not see anything abnormal, but that was what made him startled.

Because what I felt before, those corners that hide maliciousness are still in the same state. Under the eyes of the law, things that should not be seen are still invisible. , belong to the illusion, or these hidden malice, the strength is much stronger than them.

"To be honest, senior brother, I came into contact with the statue of Zhenwu in the Yinping Niangzi Temple before, and I heard my Buddhist Mingwang's mantra, so I stopped drinking."

Master Guandao responded casually: "Make your troubles go away? Why is the power of Peacock King Ming in the statue of Emperor Zhenwu? I'm afraid that statue is a relic of my Buddhist predecessors. I put my life's cultivation into the statue. Waiting for those who are predestined."

"No, it's not."

Master Jingxian interrupted Master Guandao's words: "After I touched the power of King Ming, my troubled heart became stronger. When I first touched it, it seemed that there were countless demons in my heart, and I kept thinking about it. I recited Amitabha, and it took a long time before I recovered. calm."

When he said this, his eyes kept staring at Master Guan Dao, and Master Guan Dao was also full of doubts at this time:
"What are you staring at me for?"

"Don't you think I'm a demon in disguise?"

"Junior brother, are you my junior brother?"

The two guessed each other, Master Jingxian pressed down the door of the meditation room with force, and then asked: "It's not that the younger brother is suspicious, but the situation in this meditation room is not right. I see that this place is full of filth, those dark corners, as if Hiding the demon heads of the heavens, ghosts and monsters, but you, senior brother, recite Buddhist scriptures in this environment, but you seem to be calm and composed."

Master Guan Dao was stunned: "You said I was calm? When you chanted sutras here a few days ago, weren't you the same as me?"

"It seems that you think it's ridiculous that there are demons infiltrating Lingyin Temple."

"Where is this place? This is also a majestic place within the Buddhist Temple under heaven. The Subduing Dragon Arhat once practiced here. What monsters dare to mix in here?"

Master Guan Dao felt angry at this time, and reprimanded Master Jingxian: "I see, you have been influenced by the power of King Ming. King Ming is originally the Dharma image used by Buddha to punish evil people. It is still the genus of King Ming."

"Is there anyone in King Ming who is not angry? King Ming sees everything in the world as a place of filth."

Master Guan Dao said: "However, this may also show that you have an excellent compatibility with the power of the Peacock Daming King. Perhaps it is the Buddha's fate prepared for you."

"Perhaps to accept King Ming's power, you need to get rid of all troubles, so let your troubles be full first, and you have to go through many tests."

Master Guan Tao reasoned, Master Jing Xian also felt that this was the case, but there was a certain gap between the brothers and sisters, Master Jing Xian had not sat down to meditate, and at this moment he suddenly asked:
"So, brother, is it true that you can't see the filth in this meditation room?"

Master Guan Tao shook his head: "All I see in my eyes is harmony. Because I am an Arhat fruit, I have obtained all evils and realized ignorance and greed, so I can mix tranquility with afflictions, so the dharma realm is harmonious, making all things Fa Guantong, at this time I can give birth to the five aggregates and six dusts, but the five aggregates and six dusts cannot infect me."

"You must be blinded by King Ming's power. You need to recite Buddhist scriptures and practice a lot before you can be free."

After he finished speaking, he began to recite the Buddhist scriptures himself, his body was covered with a faint Buddha light, and he looked extraordinary and holy.

However, contrary to his sacred intention, Master Jingxian's old eyes were already full of astonishment!

"Brother, what are you talking about!"

Master Jingxian was almost shocked. The words of Master Guan Tao were very normal before, but now he talks about Buddhism and the like, but his words are incoherent. Arhats are evil, and ignorance and greed should be destroyed. You must not look at it. Be quiet How can afflictions be contaminated together, and the five aggregates and six dusts can pollute the Buddhadharma, how can they be born of the Buddha!

Master Guan Dao was full of doubts: "What's wrong with me, what I'm talking about is the Dharma! After becoming an arhat, there will be no mistakes in cognition of the teachings of the Buddha, and there will be no doubts. When the arhat is enlightened, so What I see is the essence of the world! It can stop the suffering of self!"

"So, what I have enlightened is that I can give birth to the five aggregates and six dusts, but the five aggregates and six dusts cannot contaminate me. After I am liberated, all suffering ceases, so I am a Buddha who has emerged from the world, and I can refine the appearance of all living beings. Is it the method we practice ourselves?"

"So all living beings are me, I am the Buddha, all living beings are the Buddha, and this becomes the Supreme True Buddha."

Master Jingxian was terrified and left the meditation room, while Master Guandao just shook his head with a puzzled expression and continued to practice his "Dharma".

"No right knowledge, no right view! How could Arhat be deceived by such stupid and evil dharmas!"

Master Jingxian finally knew where the trouble in his heart came from. He thought, King Ming's power sensed that the Dharma was disrupted, and he was naturally furious. He went to look for other arhats and found that everyone's practice of Dharma, They have all gone astray, but they don't know it at all.

Because Arhats will not misunderstand Buddhism!

At this time, Master Guan Tao didn't understand why Master Jingxian left here, he went outside, looked at the sky, and called a monk:

"Zhengkong, go and call your brothers and sisters over here, I want to give a lesson here."

On the other side, with a glimmer of hope, Master Jingxian went to meet the other two brothers, Master Zhengxin and Master Chongben, who were also discussing Buddhism.

"How to solve Sihong's vow?"

"Once I make those who have not been saved be saved, I will use my heart to control their hearts, and then their hearts will turn to my Buddha, and they will be saved and freed from suffering."

"Secondly, let those who have not been liberated be liberated. I will disperse their wisdom and transform their empty hearts, and then the afflictions and evil karma will be completely eliminated, and they will be liberated."

"Three orders for those who are not at peace to be at peace. I use my body to bear the image of all living beings. I achieve myself. I use all living beings to visualize the Buddha, that is, all living beings are at peace."

"Fourth command that those who have not yet attained Nirvana will attain Nirvana. After the Tathagata has passed away, I will save all living beings. This detachment from birth and death can save countless living beings."

"This is a great act of kindness. The so-called boundless vow to save all living beings is the determination to save all kinds of attachments in one's mind. The master and brother are already enlightened, and only after they have accomplished themselves can they bring all living beings to Nirvana together."

Master Zhengxin and Master Chongben were discussing the weird Buddhism in a serious manner. Master Jingxian backed away in shock, and immediately went to look for his apprentice, but found that his apprentice was listening to Master Tao's lecture on Buddhism, so he went to stop him immediately. Next, take him away!
Master Jingxian asked, "Has Master Guandao ever taught scriptures?"

Disciple in white: "I haven't talked about it yet."

So Master Jingxian asked several questions about Buddha nature, and his disciple answered them normally.

"Fortunately, it seems that you have not been contaminated by the evil law. Hurry up and leave Lingyin Temple with me, go to Yinping Niangzi Temple, and invite the statue of Zhenwu to use!"

Yulong Taoist Temple, here is obviously the holy place for Quanzhen Dao practice, but no Quanzhen monks have been seen, and the white-clothed immortal Chen Taichu is here, he is in the main hall of the Taoist temple, and in front of him, there is a group of people of unknown origin merchant.

"Has my medicine arrived yet?"

The merchants are members of the Longyou Merchant Gang, but they came here not because of the troubles in the temple, but because this area is the scope of activities of the Longyou Merchant Gang.

"Your Sima Shen, I heard that you are waiting for the alchemist's medicine?"

Chen Taichu frowned slightly: "You mortal. Are you sent by those alchemists to find me?"

"Alchemists, why did you let a little mortal like you deliver the letter?"

Longyou merchant Sima Shen smiled: "No, the person you were waiting for can't come."

"But your medicine, we brought it to you."

"This is the fluid of the green candle, which can make you stay in the world and get rid of worldly thoughts, but you need to use it carefully, otherwise you will be invaded by nameless resentment."

Chen Taichu's gaze paused, and he looked at this mortal: "You are not one of those alchemists."

"You weren't sent by them to find me, and you seem to know who I'm waiting for. How did you get this medicine?"

"If you don't say anything, I might turn you into meat puppets."

Sima Shen smiled and explained: "You listen to me first."

"The pearl of the cave light, the gods cannot hide their spirits; the medicine of innocence, the hearts of all saints cannot be obscured."

"The pine of Chisheng, the snake turns into a dragon, an old man becomes a child, and has the power to save the world."

"Finally. Supplemented by the legend, after the death of a loyal minister and good general, the green liver and green blood will be transformed, to drive away the flames of the Yan and Song Dynasties, and refine it."

Boom!

The sky of Yulong Taoist Temple changed color, Chen Taichu glanced at Sima Shen, Sima Shen's body was immediately shattered, but immediately after, the shattered body remained on the ground, and another Sima Shen appeared in the void.

"The Pearl of Cave Light is easy to obtain, but the medicine of innocence is hard to find. The latter is transformed by the thoughts of the people, and the people can't see it, and they don't see this medicine, and this medicine still needs to go through the process of refining."

"However, the infallible medicine you are waiting for, my lord, I want to tell you that we have it."

Chen Taichu narrowed his eyes: "Interesting, you can still be resurrected? Are you not a mortal?"

"Except for the alchemists, no one else knows about my coming from the lower realms. Even the people in this world don't know my existence. You are no longer able to see the sky with your hands and eyes, but you have the ability to peek into the future. Compared with those arhats Bodhisattva, even more tyrannical."

"You come here swaggeringly, aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"

Sima Shen: "Although I am an ordinary person, thanks to the lord who values ​​me and bestows on me the art of immortality, even though I am an ordinary person, I am not immortal. If you can't kill me, even if you crush me to pieces and make my body disappear, my lord can also be revived."

"I have taken the medicine of the black dragon. It is made from the sesame of the red dragon and the sesame of the black dragon, supplemented by the great fire of the gods. Taking it will make people enter the realm of immortality. If you want to kill me, you have to die first. Only a piece of sky above the head will do.”

"Besides, although I'm an ordinary person, the people around me have a lot of background! You must be very interested in them."

There are a few warriors from the merchant gang beside him, with dragon patterns drawn on their arms. If they are seen by the people in the court, they will definitely be arrested. Although their merchant gang can be called Longyou, the folks are Can not use dragon pattern.

These warriors from the merchant clan exuded a strong aura of resentment.

Sensing the situation of these warriors, Chen Taichu narrowed his eyes:
"The dissolution of form depends on the matter of ghosts and gods! Turning people into wishes, and wishes into resentful spirits, this is Fang Xiandao's ability in the early days. Before the pre-Qin period, few alchemists today can do it."

"So it turns out that the master behind you is that public enemy who was hunted down by alchemists a long time ago."

"Xu Fu, this is really a shocking ancient name, but if you, the master, really have the magic medicine of innocence, it is not impossible to cooperate with you."

Sima Shen was a little surprised: "You don't look surprised?"

Chen Taichu sneered: "Although Xu Fu's name is ancient, what is he like?"

"Think about it for yourself, why has he been overseas and dare not return to Middle-earth? There are people older than him alive in this world. Although the mountains and rivers are weak, they are not weak enough for him to stir up the situation here at will. Therefore, even without those four Tianxins, he would not dare to show his face."

As he said that, he grinned: "Mortals are mortals after all, only immortals can pursue the desire of immortality, but the body is immortal, but the body and spirit cannot match the years and will gradually decay, so there is the art of change."

"Your master, what does he look like now? Is he a man or a woman? Is he a child or an old man, or is he of some kind?"
