Save Datang MM

"Isn't it better for a country to have full national strength?" Shi Fei asked softly.

"For a country, the more abundant the national strength, the better." Xu Ziling said with a smile: "But for a person, the harder and simpler the better, of course, if you can maintain the enterprising heart and the spirit of struggle in the abundance, then naturally It's better, but just imagine how many people in the world can do this in good times? Among the four major clans, there are all the elites in the world, but how many talents are there? Given their education and conditions, they still lack talents. What if a commoner family becomes rich?"

"There are always more second-generation ancestors in rich families and more mediocrity." Xu Ziling laughed again: "And poor and poor families have more talents. There is a saying in the Central Plains that the rich are no more than three. It does not mean that rich people will not last long. Over three generations, the three here is a quantifier representing 'several'. What does it really mean? That is to say, when a family is very rich, it is difficult for their descendants to maintain the spirit of hard work before, and the original fighting spirit will not be and in the space of a few generations growing more and more extravagant to the point of ruining entire wealthy families."

"No wonder Mr. Xu's Huaxia Army is training so hard under such good conditions!"

Concubine Shi was surprised and said: "No wonder those residents of Hope Village keep working hard, regardless of money. It turns out that Mr. Xu believes that hard work is the best way to make people grow."

"I didn't want to force them." Xu Ziling shook his head and said, "They are free and they can leave at any time if they want to enjoy themselves."

"Then Mr. Xu thinks the unification of the world is a good thing? Or is it a bad thing?" Shi Fei asked softly.

"There are good and bad." Xu Ziling sighed softly: "The unification of the world can bring a better life, but the lack of competitors makes it easy not to make progress. If the Central Plains is unified, no matter how strong it is, within a few hundred years, it will inevitably collapse and let foreigners invade. Worse than the Wuhuhuahua. I think that unless the world is completely unified, that is to say, the people of the whole land are unified, no dynasty will be able to last.”

"Is this possible?" Concubine Shi asked loudly: "The lives of various races are fundamentally different, and some simple and contradictory sects are difficult to reconcile. Is it possible for all races and people to unify the world? Just talk about the unification of the Central Plains. It's hard to compare to ascending to the sky..."

"So the unification of the world is temporary." Xu Ziling nodded and said: "The world will be divided for a long time, and it will be reunited for a long time. The whole history will be divided and reunited like this. Even if the unification is very strong and rich now, one day the land of the Central Plains will be because of the abundance. And the corruption will cause the aliens to invade, and the people will be torn apart. Later, because some people will not be bullied and struggle to repel the aliens and reunify..."

"A person's life is limited." Concubine Xuan sighed: "Concubine Xuan doesn't care about the future and only cares about the present. All living beings are suffering in front of me, how can Concubine Xuan not spare a little effort?"

"It's not wrong to have this kind of thinking." Xu Ziling nodded and said: "But Shi Xianzi thought that without you, you can't change the fate of others at all!"

"Mr. Xu said that the concubine Xuan didn't understand." Shi Feixuan couldn't understand why Xu Ziling said that.

"What Fairy Master can do can only change the body or life of all the people in the world." Xu Ziling said in an astonishing way: "But it can't change a person's essence and soul. Not only is it useless to do so, but it is far from the Buddhist theory. thousands of miles?"

"Everything Concubine Xuan has done, Mr. Xu thinks it is contrary to Buddhism?" Concubine Shi (-) Xuan never thought that Xu Ziling would treat him like this in astonishment.

"With the ability of a fairy teacher." Xu Ziling pointed to a small ant on the table that was lured by the fragrance and asked: "Can this ant be turned into a person?"

"Of course not." Concubine Shi shook her head, she still didn't understand what Xu Ziling wanted to say.

"But you can change its life." Xu Ziling took a piece of vegetable dish with his chopsticks and held it in front of the little ant, making the little ant pounce on it with its tentacles, probing and biting desperately, trying to drag it back to the nest, but it was too much Little can't move.Xu Ziling looked at Shi Feixuan and said with a slight smile: "This change will allow them to survive better. But because they reproduce too much, the shop owner will find out; Now it's a catastrophe."

"If there is no catastrophe." Xu Ziling smiled slightly again: "then they are still ants and have not changed into humans. You let all the people in the world live a stable and prosperous life, but you can't change everything in the world if they get sick or die of old age. You can’t change all the miseries of the world. They’re still suffering because they’re suffering in a life of abundance.”

"Dharma can save people's hearts." The concubine said loudly and unconvinced: "As long as all the people in the world learn the Dharma, they will pass through the other side of Nirvana and enjoy eternal happiness without suffering or difficulty."

"Buddhism can save people's hearts, yes, I agree." Xu Ziling said lightly, "But who will promote Buddhism?"

"All the monks in the world can't preach it." The concubine Shi replied loudly.

"How many monks in the world can cross by themselves? How many can become Buddhas by self-cultivation?" Xu Ziling asked again.

"..." This time Concubine Shi was speechless.

"Even self-taught monks can't become Buddhas themselves, so how can they redeem the world who are fascinated by emotions and six desires?" Xu Ziling shook his head lightly and said, "It's hard to return to the lost way of the world! Do you dare to say that you will be able to cross by yourself? Fairy Shi, do you think that the Buddhist teachings of the monks and monks in the world can make the people of the world cross?"

"At least it can make people worship Buddha and have a heart of kindness, make the world more stable and make people more sustenance." The concubine argued loudly.

"Fairy Master, has it never occurred to me why so many great enlightened beings can become Buddhas in the world? Why can Master Buhan be able to become Buddhas? Why can't Master Liao Kong, whose martial arts is superior to him, be able to become Buddhas?" Xu Ziling waited for this day for a long time. Finally, the day came to transform this Fairy Master.It is impossible to confront Cihang Jingzhai head-on, because they represent the leaders of the world and are the spiritual sustenance of all people in the world. If you want to overthrow them openly.Then the first unlucky person is himself.

If you want to knock down Cihang Jingzhai, you must first start to disintegrate from within and make them collapse.

The first step, of course, is to make this spokesperson Shi Fei known.Thought remolding is on my side, otherwise there will be no way to talk about it.

Xu Ziling never thought that he would be able to transform Fan Qinghui and Liao Kong's old stubbornness, but he was very confident about this concubine Xuanshi Xianzi who was still new to the world.He had been working hard to dispel her wariness of him.

If you open your mouth and say the truth at the beginning.Then not only would she not be able to argue against her, but it would lead to Fan Qinghui or others behind her.

But now that Concubine Shixuan already has a certain influence in the Jianghu, the opportunity for him to slowly transform Concubine Shixuan has finally come.

"Concubine Xuan is dull, Mr. Xu will try to solve the confusion!" Shi Fei Xuan said after a moment of silence.

"Because the Dharma you are learning now is not at all the Dharma used by great enlightened beings to practice and become a Buddha." Xu Ziling said lightly, but it was like a bolt from the blue.Let the concubine's noisy appearance change continuously.

"What did you say?" Shi Feixuan couldn't believe her ears.

"It is said that there are 1000 methods of cultivating Buddhism." Xu Ziling showed a deep understanding of Buddhism, which made it impossible to underestimate: "I will not talk about primitive Buddhism. But one of the methods was established by Sakyamuni [-] years ago. Under Nifo's grand propaganda, it spread to the world. At first it was only spread in various parts of Tianzhu, and then it was introduced to China in the Northern and Southern Jin Dynasties."

"In the process of transmission, different monks have different understandings. But they did not pass down all the things of Sakyamuni Buddha, but added their own understandings and opinions. As a result, Gao Shenbo's original meaning of Buddhism became more and more It is not accepted by the world. Now it is the understanding of some monks who have changed beyond recognition, and it is not what Buddha Sakyamuni passed on." Xu Ziling said slowly.

"How is this possible..." Concubine Shi was dumbfounded when she heard that what she had learned in the Middle Earth was not the real Dharma.

"For example, Zen." Xu Ziling said with a slight smile: "Master Bodhidharma taught the world that the Zen method was created based on a sentence in all the words of Sakyamuni Buddha. Master Mo's words are regarded as the absolute truth. Shakyamuni Buddha still has a lot of things, but he didn't study Zen again. Therefore, Zen people can only cultivate the state of Master Bodhidharma at most, and never reach the state of Shakyamuni Buddha. .”

"..." Concubine Shi was stunned for a moment.

"Do you know why people in the Central Plains like the principles of Zen so much?" Xu Ziling asked his concubine again, naturally he didn't understand and just shook his head.

"Because Zen Buddhism was created by Master Bodhidharma, and the lowest level of Arhat law is the most acceptable to ordinary people." Xu Ziling said lightly: "And what Sakyamuni Buddha said is that the Tathagata's law is extremely profound, but it makes people accept it." It is difficult for the world to understand and it is difficult to realize. So the world abandons the method of the Tathagata and learns the method of an Arhat, so there is the current Zen."

"..." Shifei Xuan immediately understood and was even more shocked when she heard it.

"As for the other dozens of sects such as Pure Land, Tiantai, Huayan, Tantra, etc." Xu Ziling said softly: "These sects are established by the monks after some time of religious improvement. The sects believe in Amitabha, Medicine Buddha, Dafa Sun Tathagata and so on. They don’t believe in the original Shakyamuni Buddha who preached the Dharma at all, they have changed the original things beyond recognition.”

"As for some small sects, Confucianism and Taoism that have been integrated into the Middle Earth are everywhere, and even go evil." Xu Ziling glanced at the concubine Shi and said slowly: "As for the current cultivation method, it is very different from the beginning. Gain heaven and earth. Shakyamuni Buddha said 'precepts, samadhi, and wisdom.' When he was alive, he didn't have any temples or any external possessions. He led his disciples to wander around begging and endure asceticism while practicing Buddhism."

"But look at the current Buddhist people?" Xu Ziling sighed: "Tall temples have to be built on top of famous mountains. Monks no longer wander around and practice asceticism. Every day in the temple, they chant scriptures, chant Buddha, eat and drink, and there are people offering them. It is very comfortable. Believers have to pay for their entry and exit. Sesame oil, money, worshiping Buddha, donating Buddha statues and gold bodies, paying attention to how to cultivate these things? When Shakyamuni Buddha was alive, if the disciples begged for a bowl if it was more beautiful, they were afraid that they would like it, and their attachments would be broken. But you Look now? The whole temple is built of copper!"

"Master Xu, do you think that we who practice Buddhism are hopeless?" the concubine Shi asked in a miserable voice.

"Hopefully." Xu Ziling nodded and said, "Unless there is someone like Master Buyan who does not attach to anything and practice Buddhism intensively."

"Master Xu, can you teach Concubine Xuan?" Concubine Xuan finally said something that made Xu Ziling secretly happy after his mouth was dry.
