chewing dragon

Chapter 252
Seeing that Qi Jingzhi seemed to have fallen into deep thought, Li Shan Guangye went to the table of Shanling on his own, and took the two gall bottles left by old man Lingfeng into his bosom, and did not forget to use Qi Jingzhi before The cup of empty green that was exchanged for the girl was poured into his mouth.

In the next moment, his eyes almost burst into light: "Sure enough, it is a good thing that can cure eye diseases, increase eyesight, and activate blood orifices!"

The fellow gave a sincere admiration, walked back with joy, and naturally stared at the gall bottle filled with sweetgum balm in front of Qi Jingzhi.

After old man Lingfeng weathered and rained, the only remaining maple balm in this cup seemed to be more aura, and it looked more extraordinary. Lishan Guangye looked at it for a long time, but finally didn't dare to stretch out his hand again.

Qi Jingzhi glanced at this unobtrusive guy, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned: "Green gum can promote blood circulation, relieve pain, detoxify and build muscle. Do you want to try its effect?"

Lishan Guangye chuckled: "In addition to being the best medicinal material, maple balm is also a top-quality spice. The piece left by the old man Lingfeng is even more incredible. It is so condensed and the essence is contained that it can already be called amber. It is one of the seven treasures of Buddhism!"

"When we pass by the Fuya Temple, my elder brother will offer this strangely scented gemstone to the Buddha, and I will definitely win the favor of those great monks. In the future, I will be able to bring a lot of convenience when walking in the capital."

"Not to mention other things, Zen Master Zhenjue, one of the four eminent monks of Fuya Temple, must be happy. If Zen Master Zhenjue is happy, he will definitely be famous among the dignitaries in the capital and the high schools for his elder brother."

Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi couldn't help thinking of the tiger monk of Fuya Temple who died in his hands, and felt a little weird.

There is no impenetrable wall in the world. If the monks of Fuya Temple don't come to seek revenge, he should burn incense. How can he expect the other party to make a name for him?
What's more, in the anecdote of the "moon repairer" told by my master, the moon wheel is the essence of the seven treasures. Since the amber condensed from the maple balsam is one of the seven treasures of Buddhism, it will be very useful in repairing the mysterious mirror of heaven and earth in the future. How can it be easily given to others?
It's just that it was Qi Jingzhi's first time hearing about the four eminent monks of Fuya Temple, and he couldn't help being curious. Moreover, he had to pass by the Shiweng Valley in Dongxiu Ridge on his way to the capital, so he might have to deal with the monks of Fuya Temple.

He immediately followed Lishan Guangye's words and asked: "Who are the four eminent monks of Fuya Temple you are talking about? Why can they be called eminent monks?"

Hearing Qi Jingzhi's question, Lishan Guangye coughed lightly, and smiled strangely: "Actually, compared to what the four eminent monks of Fuya Temple said, these four great monks have a more widely spread among practitioners." They are called the Four Idiots of Fuya, because each of them has an idiotic act that people talk about."

"The first one is the Chan Master Zhenyou of 'chanting scriptures to the tiger'. The original meaning of the word you is a strange beast of the monkey genus, but now it has the meaning of reason and law, and it is called You by Taoism. True to his name, Zen Master Zhenyou is the eminent monk with the strongest Buddhist heart in Fuya Temple, and the most enthusiastic about proclaiming the principles of Buddhism and preaching to all living beings."

Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi's heart skipped a beat, and he interjected: "I have heard people say that there is a saying about the Zen tiger in the Fuya Temple, and they like to tell the disciples and believers the stories of eminent monks subduing tigers and fierce tigers practicing Zen. Is it this Chan Master Zhenyou who chanted sutras to the tiger?"

Lishan Guangye thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Zen sect has always liked this tune, and the saying of Zen Tiger has a long history, but in recent decades, Zen Master Zhenyou has the most famous reputation in it. "

"It is said that when he was a young monk with a shallow cultivation, he often chanted scriptures and sat in meditation on the bluestone outside the temple gate outside of his daily homework. One day, the sound of chanting sutras attracted dozens of tigers in the mountains to watch him. The Zen master did not change his face, and he recited the scriptures as usual."

"All the tigers were touched by their Buddha's heart, and they all fell to the ground and listened quietly. Only one tiger slept alone. Zen Master Zhenyou walked up, clasped the tiger's head with the iron ruyi in his hand, and asked the tiger, "Why don't you listen to the scriptures?" The tiger came to his senses, kowtowed to plead guilty, and listened respectfully, until Chan Master Zhenyou finished chanting, and then quietly retreated with the group of tigers."

"Since then, when Zen Master Zhenyou sat in meditation, fierce tigers often came to listen to the scriptures, especially the sleeping tiger came the most frequently, and gradually became a spectacle of Fuya Temple, attracting countless believers. If you see it, you must take it as a great blessing, and Zen Master Zhenyou has thus become the most famous preaching monk in Fuya Temple."

"It's a pity that in recent years, Zen Master Zhenyou has improved his cultivation and turned to retreat in the stone chamber deep in the Stone Urn Valley. Not to mention that outsiders can't easily see it, even the younger generation of monks in Fuya Temple only heard of him. Therefore, Now among the people in the capital, there are only some elderly people who still believe in this matter, and the younger ones can only think that the monks of Fuya Temple are bragging."

"The aristocratic family and those in the practice know that it is true, so they take a high look at Fuya Temple. Together with the name of Fuya's Four Idiots, it is usually only spread among the families with inheritance, and ordinary people can't hear it. , and have no chance to see."

Qi Jingzhi was stunned when he heard this. With such a Zen master as an example, it is no wonder that Fuya Temple will cultivate monks who are so obsessed with the way of Zen and tiger that they are willing to transform into tigers. It is no wonder that as a younger generation, the tiger spirit once said: Complaints, thinking that the story of Chanhu listening to scriptures that I have heard since childhood is just made up by the predecessors to cheat sesame oil money.

"The so-called spectacle of Zen Master Zhenyou chanting sutras to the tiger sounds like Fuya Temple deliberately did it, but from the tone of a family member of Lishan Guangye, Zen Master Zhenyou is not a bluffing and deceitful person, but a If you really have great cultivation, you really have a Buddha heart to preach to all living beings."

"Well, to be honest, apes do have some skills in taming animals such as subduing tigers and raising horses. Not to mention that mandrills use tigers as their sons, this Zen master named 'You' can influence people through chanting sutras. The fierce tiger really lives up to its name."

Qi Jingzhi held back his divergent thoughts, and asked with great interest: "Just listening to Zen Master Zhenyou's deeds, you can know that the four idiots of Fuya have their own extraordinary features, and I don't know what kind of idiots the remaining three have. ?”

Li Shan Guangye saw that he had successfully aroused the interest of this cheap brother, he couldn't help laughing, and showed off more and more proudly: "The second among the Fuya Four Idiots is the Zen Master Zhenjue mentioned earlier. He has a nickname called 'no word', but he is a saw-mouthed gourd who practices closed mantra."

"Not saying a word?"

Qi Jingzhi couldn't help being a little puzzled: "This one is exactly the opposite of Zen Master Zhenyou who chanted scriptures to tigers, but it sounds ordinary. What's there to talk about?"

Lishan Guangye smiled even wider: "I want to teach my brother to know that although Zen Master Zhenjue practices closed-mouth meditation, his identity is the Zhigu monk of Fuya Temple. In addition to receiving pilgrims, he is used to add oil and offer incense to the Buddha. When there is a shortage of incense money, they will go out for alms, and they will go to the home of the rich businessman in the relatives of the Hou family."

"When these big families met, they don't need Zen Master Zhenjue to ask, they all donate generously. It is said that Fuya Temple can have today's rich and beautiful scenery, and more than half of the money spent is Zen Master Zhenjue's alms."

Qi Jingzhi was even more puzzled when he heard this, but he also nodded and said: "If you don't say a word but do the welcoming and sending things, you can even raise tens of thousands of incense and money. How did the Zen master do it?"

Unexpectedly, Lishan Guangye sold Guanzi: "Brother Shi has maple syrup and kongqing in his hands, and there are many copper coins with mountain rhyme. Once revealed to others, he will definitely attract Zen master Zhenjue to come to alms. This Zen master has What a strange method, brother will naturally know when the time comes."

"Let's talk about the last two of Fuya's Four Idiots, namely 'Duibei Guying' Zen Master Zhenjing and 'Eating Books and Self-Fattening' Zen Master Zhenneng."

"Zen Master Zhenjing is known as the wisdom of Fuya Temple. It is said that one day he saw his own shadow projected on the stele of recommending blessings, and he suddenly became enlightened. He looked at the shadow of the stele every day and ignored common things, so he did Monk protecting the stele forest of Fuya Temple."

"About Zen Master Zhenjing's Gu Ying facing the stele, there is another saying that he actually fell in love with his own shadow, facing the stele all day long, but just fell into a magic barrier and looked at himself in pity."

Lishan Guangye paused, seeing that Qi Jingzhi had no doubts, he continued: "Zhan Master Zhenneng is just the opposite, known as the number one fool in Fuya Temple. He is the guardian monk of the Buddhist scriptures pavilion, but he guards himself and steals. He devoured the scriptures in the pavilion for pleasure, and even ate them with a fat stomach and a big belly."

"After the incident, the abbot of Fuya Temple at that time wanted to punish, but Zen Master Zhenneng said that he could not bear the harm of false scriptures and evil methods and silverfish in the book, so he ate it into his stomach and turned it into stinky feces. , The supreme merit of protecting the Dharma."

When Qi Jingzhi heard this, his eyes were wide open.

"It's no wonder that even the head of the picket department in the Yin Division of Songling County once said that Zen disciples often do things that shock the world. Fuya Temple is known as the first jungle of Zen Buddhism in Daqi. Regardless of other things, it is really ingenious in such matters. , It’s overwhelming.”

"The preaching monk recites scriptures to the tiger, the knowing guest monk does not say a word, the stele guarding monk looks at the stele's shadow, and the pavilion guarding monk feeds himself by eating books... This Zen practice concept is compared with the holy ginger based on humanity and the Taoism close to nature. , there is obviously a big difference, it seems to be more focused on a certain desire in your heart?"

Qi Jingzhi just had this thought, when he suddenly heard someone calling him.

He was suddenly in a trance, and the light and shadow suddenly changed in front of his eyes, as if he was in a dark room with no light, and the surroundings were pitch black, except for several kinds of auras blooming on his body.

Immediately afterwards, the call he had heard before turned into the whimpering of the wind. At first it was like the mournful cry of autumn cicadas, far away from the river bank, and then it was like the sound of a phoenix flute, nine days away.

Listening to it, Qi Jingzhi only felt that his body suddenly disintegrated, and he lost his form and turned into gas in an instant.

He faintly felt that something was wrong, but the thoughts in his mind became more and more sluggish, and he just stood there in a daze for a while.

The next moment, a very loud and piercing curse came from Qi Jingzhi's ear: "Qi Jingzhi, I have been enslaved by you for no reason since I was born. I have worked hard in this dark place for sixteen years, and I have not had a single day of rest."

"Now that the Lingtai Palace has finally been built here, I never thought that you are so stingy and refuse to let me stay here. What's the reason?"

Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi came back to his senses a little bit, and found that his body and the aura around him were still there. He was relieved before he had time to look at the boy in front of him.

I saw this young man who appeared at an unknown time, dressed in commoner clothes and hemp shoes, his ears, eyes, mouth and nose were exactly the same as his, as if they were carved out of the same mold, and they all respected each other.

At this time, Qi Jingzhi's thoughts were still stagnant, and he asked slowly in doubt: "Who are you?"

The commoner boy looked like he hated iron and steel, pointed at Qi Jingzhi and said indignantly: "You can't see this? What a fool! Look more clearly, I am you!"

Without waiting for Qi Jingzhi's response, the young man pointed at him without stopping and scolded him: "It doesn't matter if you forget who I am, but you absolutely shouldn't, but you shouldn't forget Master's earnest warning! "

"Master once said that the most taboo of taking impure qi is the most taboo in the practice of Banxia. Once a monk takes qi at a loss and touches everything, it is easy to have a different thought when studying secret scriptures and saving thoughts on the altar, giving birth to all kinds of inversions. Delusion and even world-hating and self-hating thoughts finally lead to the desolate end of the collapse of the Dao heart and the death of the body and soul!"

"Recently, you have completely forgotten the teachings of the master, and you have been exposed to several strange and vicious alien evil spirits one after another, especially just now. Destiny, you really don't know how to live or die!"

After being scolded and scolded by the young man, Qi Jingzhi felt as if struck by lightning, he couldn't help feeling infinite shame and hatred in his heart, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.

At this time, he had no intention of caring about the identity of the young man in front of him, and he even forgot to find out where he was, so he just murmured: "Yes, I am really an unworthy disciple, and I wasted my master's teaching!"

Seeing this, the commoner boy sneered, with a look of pride on his face: "Since you still have some sense of shame, you are not hopeless. As the saying goes, it is never too late to fix it, and your situation is not too late." There is no remedy!"

Qi Jingzhi suddenly raised his head, his eyes glowed with hope: "Dare to ask... this brother, how can I remedy it?"

The commoner boy's smile became more wanton, and he stretched out his hand to grab Qi Jingzhi's waist, took the green horn wrapped around his waist in his hand, and then honestly wrapped it around his waist.

In an instant, the youth in commoner clothes changed abruptly. You can faintly see dragons and snakes surrounding you, and the rain on your body. ", "Wind in the Pines of Ten Thousand Valleys" and all the cultivation bases of Lu Lu Tiaoyang's technique were taken away.

Qi Jingzhi was stunned on the spot, feeling that his heart had become light and empty, full of regret.

The commoner boy, however, became more and more complacent, looking back and forth at Qi Jingzhi's body, after a moment of thought, he reached out and grabbed the collar hanging on Qi Jingzhi's neck.

As soon as I got this collar, the two little snakes that make up the collar began to struggle and twist. The little snake with red skin and red skin ignited a raging fire, and the one that was shining brightly in emerald green was also shaken, its ax-shaped scales jingling Noisy, blooming cold light.

The commoner boy snorted in pain, and refused to let go. He cursed again and again: "Qi Jingzhi, you rebellious person who doesn't follow the teacher's training, what is the face of you sitting on this treasure? Why don't you give it to me quickly? ?”

Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi immediately blushed, felt sad, and became more and more ashamed, subconsciously replied: "Give it to you, give it to you!"

The resistance of the two little snakes on the collar disappeared immediately, and the boy in civilian clothes held the collar firmly in his hands, and then hung it around his neck without hesitation.

In an instant, the aura on the young man's body became stronger and stronger. Not only was his whole body ignited with red fire, but he also exuded a faint aura of priestly authority, as if he was dying of death.

The commoner boy was overjoyed, his eyes became more and more greedy, and after a short balance, he stared at the iron wing behind Qi Jingzhi.

He repeated the old trick, shouting and cursing non-stop, while holding Qi Jingzhi's shoulder and an iron wing with both hands, tearing down desperately, and even pulled the green and red two-color crossover on Qi Jingzhi's body. Brilliant surplice.

Under the traction of Qi, the ordinary, muddy and blood-stained sandals on Qi Jingzhi's feet suddenly changed. First, they turned into a pair of very eye-catching green thatched crane shoes, and then peeled off Qi Jingzhi's feet by themselves, turning into a pair of sandals. They became a pair of little cranes with angry eyes and blue feathers.

"I'll ask again..."

Candles flickered in Qi Jingzhi's eyes, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed both wrists of the commoner boy.

Facing the boy who had the same appearance as himself, he grinned silently, then gritted his teeth and asked word by word: "You...are...who?"
