Shaolin Bajue

Chapter 19 On the Tao
After hearing his words, Qing Cheng asked, "Senior Sword God, is there really such a big beast in Canglong Valley?"

Dao Shen said: "That's still fake, the old man has been fighting with it for many years. That guy is also cunning, I turned around and ran away when I saw that I couldn't beat it, it has thick skin and thick flesh, and my supreme palm strength is not of much use to it. As soon as he moved the knife, the guy saw the opportunity and ran away."

Qing Cheng said: "I heard people say that it killed a person a few days ago and swallowed half of his body. Is this true?"

The sword god laughed, and said: "That beast has bitten many people, only that time it can be regarded as killing the people."

Everyone was surprised when they heard this, and thought to themselves: How could this happen?Could it be that the beast has done something good?Seeing everyone's suspicious faces, Dao Shen said: "How do you know that the man who was bitten to death is a big bully here, relying on his father's power to do bad things, I also wanted to go to sea for fame, but Except for one person after another, can I kill them all?
That day, the boy was chasing a woman, so he couldn't help running into the woods. He caught up with the woman and wanted to rape him, but before he succeeded, he heard a gust of wind blowing through the woods. Knowing what is good or bad, he wanted to settle the woman. The beast seemed to know that the boy looked down on it, and gave the boy who was being violent with a silver horn on his head. The boy was bleeding all over the ground on the spot, and half of his life was left. See you later It was a gigantic monster, and it was so frightening that it couldn't help but pee, and the woman was also trembling from fright.

The beast then opened its mouth, and swallowed the boy's upper body, without looking at the woman, chewing and walking away, he looks like a big man who is a hero... Haha, You say this guy did a good thing. "

After listening to him tell the story, everyone knew that it happened like this.

Wuming said: "Amitabha, there are really bad people everywhere in this world, such a remote place is bound to have bad people running amok, that beast has done a good deed, and will fall into hell in the future, and the King of Hades will also have to record it on the list of merits and virtues." , let it suffer less.”

Dao Shen said: "Old monk, this old man is so strange, don't you monks never forget to say Amitabha before speaking?"

Wuming said: "Amitabha, the almsgiver is joking. For thousands of years, eminent monks of all dynasties have admired and yearned for the Lord Buddha. Whoever has the Lord Buddha in his heart will have infinite power and can resolve everything. The Lord Buddha can be said to be the liberation of this world. Pain is the incarnation of strength. We Shaolin monks are in the rivers and lakes, so we must not forget this."

After hearing this, Dao Shen smiled and shook his head, indicating that he didn't quite understand.

Fang Jianming saw it, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Sword God, don't you like Lord Buddha?"

Wuming, Qingcheng, the expressions of the five Shaolin monks all changed.They dare not say such words, whoever speaks out will be regarded as a rebel.Dao Shen was taken aback when he heard this, and said: "I don't believe in Buddhism, but I always feel that there is a magical power in this world that controls us. No matter how good your martial arts are, you are not its opponent. Maybe this is the Buddha Lord that the monks said. "

Fang Jianming said: "Really?"

Dao Shendao: "For example, people are mortal. There is no one who is immortal. No matter how high the martial arts are, no one can escape from this circle. No one knows who controls our life and death; also, this person has smart people." , There are fools, there are good people, and there are bad people, so who decides this, the old man has lived for more than 100 years, and he still hasn’t found a clue, so the old man has no choice but to call these things that have been arranged by God as magical power, It’s not like the Buddhist school wants to find a target, such as the Tathagata Buddha, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, the spiritual power I’m talking about is invisible, it’s everywhere, and no one knows where he is and how much magic power he has.”

As soon as the sword god said this, Wuming said: "Amitabha, the sword god's benefactor, the Buddha masters of our Buddhist family are also everywhere, with boundless magic power. They have transformed into thousands of people and relieved the suffering of the world. According to the old man, the benefactor's words are miraculous. Power is also an incarnation of Lord Buddha."

Dao Shen smiled and said: "I don't know much about Buddhism, but the magical power I'm talking about is not the same as the Lord Buddha. The Lord Buddha has thousands of incarnations, but the power of spirit is invisible. He doesn't exist in any world. He looked at the world with cold eyes, sometimes angry, sometimes joyful. The Buddhist school always finds someone to serve as his substitute to preach enlightenment for them, but the power of spirit has never had a spokesperson, it is what it is, and this is what the old man thinks It is the biggest difference with the Buddha.

Ever since I embarked on the Unsurpassed Dao of the Sword 20 years ago, the old man has always wanted to break through the limits of human beings. After so many years of kung fu practice, the old man will inevitably die in the end, and the old man is unwilling.So this old man has been fighting with the Heavenly Cicada Saber and that beast for so many years in this Canglong Valley. The old man wants to get a little bit of Taoism from it, but apart from the improvement of his cultivation, he can't see anything... Sigh"

Fang Jianming smiled and said: "So, Grandpa Dao Shen, the river flowing from high to low in the mountains, the changes of mountain flowers in the four seasons, and the thunder and rain we usually see, even snow and hail, all have a kind of The power of air dominates this?"

Sword God smiled and said: "That's right, you can infer other things from one instance. But what you're talking about are things that you often see, so it's not unusual. I have been to many places in the past, and I have seen many magical things in this world. or the eruption of the flame mountain in the depths of the East China Sea, how can that power rely on manpower alone to stop them. When you grow up, you will see strange things in this world, which are not things we understand, so to speak , they are all manifestations of magical power."

Fang Jianming lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly said loudly: "Why do people grow up? Grandpa Sword God, is this also caused by magical power?"

As soon as Fang Jianming said this, even the sword god was taken aback, not to mention other people, everyone looked at Fang Jianming as if they were looking at a monster.They have never thought about this problem. These people from the rivers and lakes, from childhood to adulthood, to old age, except for practicing martial arts and making a name for themselves in the martial arts, they have hardly thought about this kind of problem. , in desperation, will ponder these things.

Now Fang Jianming, a young boy, suddenly mentioned a problem that they had long regarded as normal, but it made them stunned for a while, and they didn't speak for a long time.

After a while, Dao Shen said slowly: "You are right, but no one can answer this question, and I don't know if this is the category of magical power. I have lived for so many years, and I have never thought about it. After this question, I thought it was a matter of course for people to grow up, and there was nothing to explain, but when you asked, I became more and more confused. Since it is normal for people to grow up, there is still What is abnormal? People don’t even know their own secrets, so talking about the outside world is ridiculous.”

Fang Jianming said it unintentionally, he said it when he thought of it, how could he expect that the sword god would be stumped, and he expressed his emotion.

Hearing this, Wuming felt that the words would become more and more inaccurate, so he whispered "Amitabha".Dao: "The "Heart Sutra" has a saying: form is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from form; form is emptiness, emptiness is form; the same is true for feeling, thinking, action, and consciousness. How can we little people perceive the supreme Buddha way in the world? .Sword god benefactor, Ming children have no taboos, let him go, let him go. Why should we care about the infinite avenues in this world, or do more things with immeasurable merits. how far?"

Dao Shen smiled and said: "Okay, don't talk about this kind of thing, it's useless to talk about it. Old monk, don't be impatient. You have seen this canyon, and you will be there in a few miles."

Wuming thought: I have been waiting for decades, how can I not be impatient?
Suddenly, Fang Jianming exclaimed in surprise: "Oh...here, where, there are so many dead people, it's so scary."

Dao Shen said: "They are all people from the rivers and lakes who came to the valley to search for treasures. Some died by killing each other, some were poisoned to death, and some were bitten to death by wild animals. No matter how beautiful they are, no one will know when they die in the end. Under the wind and rain. People in the Jianghu are like this. They don’t even have a place to bury them when they die.”

After finishing speaking, the sword god reminded everyone: "Be careful, there are some flowers and plants here that you must never touch. They are extremely poisonous. I have suffered from them back then. When that boy from Tangmen entered the valley, it was at the time when the celestial cicada The knife came out of the hole, all the beasts in the valley were hidden, the poisonous weeds couldn't stop the people of the Tang Sect, that boy entered the valley that day, he was lucky and fateful, it can be regarded as a good day." He said, unfolding lightness kung fu, The unhurried leap in the valley.

Fang Jianming was pulled in front of him by Wuming, started his lightness kung fu, followed closely behind Sword God, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Sword God, why didn't I see any beasts?"

The sword god let out a long cry, and said: "Those guys are scared of being beaten by the old man, how dare they come to die, their leader is not the old man's opponent, who would dare to come out to die, hehe, follow up, the old man will open the way ahead"

I saw his tall body changing several postures in the air, splitting his palms, and a strong wind blew up, sweeping all the way, the distance of more than 20 feet was under the attack of the palm wind, his person was like an arrow that left the string , flew over the canyon ahead.The nine people behind him followed closely, not daring to fall behind.

Passing through the canyon in front, the ten people galloped all the way, the speed was extremely fast, and it didn't take a moment to come to a rather wide place.It seems that the scenery here is still very beautiful. There are small streams flowing, surrounded by mountains on three sides, countless flowers and plants, and a cave can be seen faintly on a steep slope with a height of three feet.If you think about it, that's where the Heavenly Chandao "lives".

As Fang Jianming got closer to this place, he suddenly felt an inexplicable excitement. For some reason, there was always a familiar voice calling him, and his people felt extremely sleepy.Fang Jianming yawned and said, "I seem to be sleeping, Grand Master, I want to sleep."
