Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang

Chapter 414 But this is my home; how can you take advantage of such an advantage?
For the vast majority of mortal monks, they are actually more human.

Unless you have great perseverance, how can you compete with the temptation of the world?
This may be why many monks with profound Taoism are always in retreat, or often in deep mountains and old forests.

Except for living Buddhas like Daoji, those who have always shown their faces in the world, most of them still can't let go of the turmoil of the world.

Even Fahai, didn't he always say that he is in the world of mortals?

But whether it's him or Daoji, he always has some perseverance in his heart.

This is an emotion that only belongs to human beings, and it is an experience that is difficult for the generation of immortals and Buddhas to feel.

Therefore, even though they are profound in Taoism, they regard the true fruit of Lingshan as nothing, and would rather be ordinary monks in the world of mortals in the three realms.

The second lady obviously has never met a monk with such firm beliefs as Master Sanzang, so she had unreasonable thoughts;
And this Voss has been hanging out in a place where fish and dragons are mixed up to now, so what he sees is naturally dirty.

Therefore, the second wife did not believe that she could not accomplish good things with Master Sanzang; and this Voss naturally believed in his heart that the second wife of the Kou Mansion colluded with the monk of the Tang Dynasty.

It can be seen from this that even at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, there seems to be a lot of dirty things in this pure place of Buddhism.

The brothers and sisters also felt bored when they heard this, Xiao Bailong sighed: "No wonder the emperor of Tianzhu country has always disliked the Buddhist temples in the country, and wants to reform. Now it is even more important to introduce Confucianism into Tianzhu. I am afraid that this is Tianzhu. It's not long before the days of peace."

Once it rises to the level of national politics and involves religious beliefs, even if it is dominated by the emperor of a country, it will inevitably be a huge disturbance.

And as for the result, we don't even know.

After all, the Buddhism in Tianzhu is not like the land of China. Buddhism is deeply rooted here, just like Confucianism in China.

"Worth, it's getting late, you'd better go first." Julia knew that the second wife was in the meditation room, and the meditation room was actually not far from her attic, and when the second wife was going back later, she had to pass by She's here. If she really bumped into her and went back to Voss privately, I'm afraid there will be a big fuss.

This stepmother kept her father so captivated that she couldn't listen to her own words. One of the reasons why the two elder brothers left home to study was to avoid this stepmother, out of sight and out of mind.

"Wait." Voss stood still and said, "I have something to tell you, and I'll leave after I finish."

"Then you have to hurry up." Julia said, "My stepmother, I'm afraid I won't stay with Master Sanzang for too long."

Although what Voss said was exaggerated, Julia is not without brains. Even if the second lady really has such a heart, I am afraid that Master Sanzang will not give her this chance.

Although she hasn't met Master Sanzang yet, the reputation of Master Sanzang has long spread throughout Tianzhu, and it should be different from those pious people who deceive the world and steal their names.

It is not uncommon for her to see Buddhist discussions of the Dharma.

In the past, those monks, even if they were defeated in the debate on the law, they would never admit defeat in their mouths, and even slandered their opponents in private.

Back then, she also liked hearing such stories very much.

But now?

The eminent monks and Master Tripitaka in those Buddhist temples did not just lose in the discussion of Buddhism, but lost completely.

But what are the rumors after that?
It is they who sincerely admire Master Sanzang and are willing to bow down, thinking that Master Sanzang is indeed an eminent monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

It is not a shame to lose in the hands of Master Sanzang. What is shameful is those who are not qualified to discuss Buddhism with Master Sanzang.

Because there is another rumor that Master Sanzang only seeks eminent monks to talk about Buddhism, so those who have not been sought by Master Sanzang will naturally be unable to sit still. Everyone is rushing, wishing to personally send their faces to Master Sanzang.

Still the same sentence, the real eminent monks don't actually care about these false names.

"Say it quickly," Julia urged him.

"Julia, let's go, let's go together."

Voss also spoke surprisingly, which startled Julia, and subconsciously asked, "Go? Where are you going?"

"As long as the two of us are together, where is better than being here?"

Julia was silent for a few breaths before slowly opening her mouth, "But this is my home."

She is not a young woman who has been dazzled by love, on the contrary. She has actually inherited her deceased mother's shrewd mind, but she has not been involved in the matter deeply. In addition, the second wife is now powerful in the mansion, so she also I don't want to see these two ladies all day long.
Out of sight and out of mind, he lives alone in the attic here.

This attic turned out to be her mother's library, and most of the books in it were her mother's collection.

Voss, a wild boy, heard that Julia was unwilling to leave with him, and he felt a little impatient in his heart, and he said directly: "You are mine! Your father refuses to admit me, don't tell me you are also ruthless?" Is it?"

"No, Vos." Julia suddenly turned serious, "I'm not yours yet, but I also want you to know that I still admit to our marriage, and I will find a way to get my father to agree to it. I I know you're in a hurry, but take it easy."

Just as Julia finished speaking, she heard footsteps not far away, and Julia immediately said, "Worth, hurry up, someone is coming."

Although Voss was reluctant, he still reluctantly left. When he said goodbye, he only left one sentence: "I will come again."

But before he walked a few steps, he was caught by Xiao Bailong.

"Who? Who are you?!"

His voice was very loud, but it couldn't be heard at all. The Great Sage and the others naturally couldn't do such a rough job.

"Boy, be honest." Xiao Bailong glared at him.

Just based on what he said just now to slander his master, Xiao Bailong didn't have a good impression of him at all. If it wasn't for the senior brother's special order, today let him have a good experience of what Tang Buddhism is.

Only then did Voss see the faces of these people clearly, and exclaimed: "Ah, it's you!"

"It seems that you recognized us." The Great Sage walked in front of him with a stern expression on his face: "Boy, tell me the truth, what is your intention to enter the Bandit Mansion at night?"

Voss bit back: "You are the ones. Since you are the guests of the Kou Mansion, why are you staying in the meditation room restlessly, but hiding here? Could it be for your master to move?"

Before Voss could finish his sentence, he felt the three murderous auras enveloping him in an instant, and his hair suddenly turned cold. Not only could he not say the following words, but he almost bit off his own tongue.

Although he didn't say the words, Voss already firmly believed in his heart that the second lady must be having an affair with Monk Tang, and they came here in the middle of the night as apprentices to avoid suspicion.

But this thought just fell, and seeing the direction he was going to run before, a woman was moving towards him. If it wasn't the second wife of the Kou Mansion, who was it?

She. Didn't stay in that meditation room?
Seeing Julia, who was about to return to the attic, and the second lady face to face, my heart tightened.

"Yo, Julia—" The second wife, who was originally in a bad mood, didn't expect to meet Julia here. She was not resting in the attic in the middle of the night, but humming here, she must have met her lover.

Goblin.

Neither of the two women is a fuel-efficient lamp, and the second lady is more experienced. Although she didn't grasp the current situation, it didn't matter.

This little hoof and that wild boy of Voss obviously have an old relationship, maybe they heard his footsteps and fled first.

Seeing Julia's indifferent expression, the second lady didn't care, but asked angrily, "Are you still asleep?"

Julia already knew the whereabouts of the second lady from Voss, and said with a chuckle: "Didn't you sleep too?"

The tone was slightly contemptuous.

Although these two wives married into the Kou Mansion, they have nothing to do after all. The four brothers and sisters were all born to the eldest lady of the Kou Mansion. They have never been close to her as the stepmother.

The second wife is also used to this, and she has never counted on these little ones, especially this Julia in front of her.

"I saw a figure passing by just now, who are you talking to?"

"Is there? Your eyes are blurred." Julia was not soft-spoken when she talked about her stepmother, "It's you. You didn't sleep in the middle of the night, but you ran here. Be careful not to be seen."

"What did you say?"

"You know exactly what I'm talking about." Julia took a step forward. Relying on her tall stature, she forcibly pressed the second wife's head, forcing her to the edge of the fence step by step, and said coldly: "Also, this is My house, I do things in my house, you don't care, and you don't care about my affairs. "

After finishing speaking, Julia snorted coldly, then turned her head and left.

"Humph!"

The second lady looked at the back of Julia leaving, and immediately snorted coldly: "Little girl, your wings are so stiff, you dare to talk back to my old lady."

The second lady didn't stay here too long, she always felt that there was something in Julia's words, obviously she was connoting herself.

But this girl is really not a good person. Relying on the love of her father and brother, she has always acted unscrupulously in the house, especially when she was against herself. It was obviously out of revenge for breaking up her and Voss that wild boy.

"tsk"

After the second lady left, the Great Sage looked at Voss at the side and said, "I really don't see what's so special about you, that you can be favored by the daughter of the Kou family."

Xiao Bailong also laughed and said: "Because he has no face, no skin, is poor, and has no fixed place to live, he wants to let people wander all over the world with him, making the world his home."

Wu Jing also said in a muffled voice, "Don't be ashamed."

"You monks, do you know what love is?" Voss obviously refused to accept, "You are not allowed to insult the relationship between the two of us."

"Love? Don't keep your mouth shut. It's just these illusory words. It's not my grandson talking about you." The Great Sage asked him: "I only ask you. If she really goes with you, what can you give others? If my grandson didn't say Wrong, you can’t even take care of yourself, can you?”

Worth was silent for a while, because he didn't know what to say for a while, and after a long time, he slowly said: "It's better than being locked in this cage, come with me, I can set her free, and don't have to visit the stepmother face."

"Do you believe it or not?" Xiao Bailong crossed his arms and looked at the young man condescendingly, "It's not like you haven't seen the scene just now. With her status as the daughter of the Kou family, do you think that her stepmother is serious?" Can you be able to restrain her? Even as you said, she has no freedom in the Kou mansion, but she puts aside the wealth and wealth in front of her, and went to live a hard life with you. He made sacrifices for your love, but yours? You want to trick other girls into leaving with you just by talking empty teeth?"

"In the world, how can you take advantage of such an advantage?"

This is also one of the reasons why Xiao Bailong wanted to arrest this kid.

This kid's nature is not bad, if he is left alone, he may make a mistake in the future, now that he has met him, I will arrest him and give him a correct view.

It's also that when they met, Julia was more assertive, and she didn't lose her head after hearing a few words from him. If the two of them really form a good relationship in the future, it is uncertain who will decide who.

Voss is numb.

He was actually told by a group of monks about his "love" with Julia, but he heard that what they said was true and reasonable, and he said every word in his heart.

Yes, why?

Voss, who was still resisting at first, couldn't help lowering his head now, and began to reflect on what he just said
"I also ask the elders to give some pointers."

"Amitabha." The Great Sage imitated his master and recited the Buddha's name, "Even though you have many faults, there is only one point here. The rest can be remedied."

"What is it?"

The Great Sage pointed to his heart: "Naturally it is your sincerity."

Seeing that the master wanted to lead the second lady into the righteous way, several of their disciples set their eyes on this melon boy. Although they met by chance, it was not a waste of time. It is boring to stay in the Kou mansion all day. There are good places to go in Tongtai mansion, this kid must be very clear about it, so he just happens to be the right one.

It takes seven or eight days to live in this Kou Mansion.

It took a long time for Kou Yuanwai to hold the Consummation Dojo, and it took a long time before the 24 Buddhist monks were appointed. At first, many monks were unwilling to come, but when I heard that Master Sanzang was co-organizing the Consummation Dojo, many monks, big and small, came uninvited .

There are many famous eminent monks in the prefecture and the area.

Because too many monks came, everyone wanted to practice with Master Sanzang. Because of competition for places, there was almost a fight.

In the past few days, the second lady also went to look for Fa Hai several times, but she always came here in good spirits, and went away to face the recalcitrant Master Sanzang. A Zen mind of Master Sanzang.

On the contrary, why did I already start reading Buddhist scriptures?

The second lady looked at a Buddhist scripture given by Master Sanzang, and had read halfway through it before realizing that something was wrong.

It can be said that Voss has been rejuvenated these days, and he has grown more and more. After being taught by several elders, he understands that he must not hang around like this anymore, otherwise, even if Julia marries him in the future, he will never be able to give her. happiness.

housekeeper.

In the past few days, the housekeeper suddenly found that he had become a marginal figure, and he was not used in the whole process of running the consummation dojo in the mansion.

In the past, the second lady who had responded to her in the past has even ignored her these days, and only put her heart on that monk. If it wasn't for the fact that she was involved, otherwise he would have wanted to go to the master to confess It's reported.

Miss Julia, on the other hand, showed up frequently in the past few days, and even helped his father organize the consummation dojo. The projects in charge were done in an orderly manner, which made Yuanwai Kou look up to him with admiration.

The monks have been writing for three or four days, and they have chosen a good day to start the Buddhist affairs——

Raise the banners and lay out the golden capacity; hold the candles together and burn incense to make offerings.Beat the drum and beat the cymbal.Blow the sheng and twist the pipe.Yungonger, the sound of the flute is clear. Play it once, blow it once, and speak loudly and Qiyu to open the scriptures.Secure the land first, and ask the generals next.Documents were issued and Buddha statues were worshipped.

Then Master Sanzang was invited to open the altar to give lectures. The officials and people in Tongtai Prefecture and surrounding counties knew that Master Sanzang was giving a lecture today, so they came early to occupy seats and it was very lively.

Master Sanzang gave lectures on the Peacock Sutra, Medicine Master Sutra, and Huayan Sutra. One sutra was taught for one day and one night, and it was considered a successful conclusion after three full days and nights.

But the common people are obviously still unsatisfied. How many years have there been no eminent monks preaching the scriptures like this?
Even if it is lectures, it is obvious that Master Sanzang can't understand the profound meaning in the Buddhist scriptures.

"Amitabha." After preaching the scriptures and consummating the ashram, Fahai was about to say goodbye: "The poor monk has been bothering you for many days, now that the ashram is over, it's time to go to Lingshan."
