The Poor Monk Cultivates a Way

Although Youzhou City is big and there are many soldiers defending the city, no one wants to be with a group of refugees and disaster victims all day long. They don't know when they will be deceived, they will kill officials and rebel, and rush into the city.

With the order of Zhenbei King, Murongxuan dispatched Youzhou soldiers and horses without any scruples, dispatched elite soldiers, divided into many small teams, sneaked into the refugees, and found out who was spreading the cult and who was bewitching the people to attack the king's city.

The refugees had food and drink, jobs, wages, and the ability to support their families. They knew everything, and sold out those who had ulterior motives. All the soldiers immediately started arresting people, and not long after, they had already captured many people who were secretly instigating and bewitching the refugees. After being tortured, they realized that most of them were sent by the thirteen princes to act secretly. of.

When Murong Xuan heard about this, he immediately reported to King Zhenbei that the prince was hating the thirteenth prince. Hearing this, he said angrily: "Old Thirteen, this king is incompatible with you!" , Hanging corpses on the top of the city, as a warning and punishment.

The secrets hidden among the victims were wiped out, and the atmosphere was cleared up immediately. Qi Ze worked tirelessly to diagnose and treat the victims, and soon he made a name for himself and was revered as a miracle doctor.

Kugen Laodao lives in Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, and he is not polite. He searched all the precious medicinal materials in the mansion, and clearly said that he would refine another five-poison reducing Gu pill for the princess.

Qi Cheng helped Kugen to identify the medicinal materials, refine their properties, match up the elixir, took time to go outside the city to monitor Qi Ze's movements, and reported back to Kugen. When Kugen heard that Qi Ze had the title of "miracle doctor", he sneered and said, "How dare a mere wild monk call himself a "miracle doctor"? What a joke!"

Qi Chengdao: "I heard that the fake bald donkey went to the Murong family last night and really got rid of the Gu worms on Murong Xuan's daughter, and now the Murong family regards him as a guest of honor, and the women and children in the family are clamoring to convert to Buddhism, making Murong Qing very angry Awkward."

The old man Kugen sneered and said: "Murong Qing deserves to be cocooned, and the Gu worms in Murong Xue's body are nothing more than scabies, and he was cured by his master! Instead of begging me, he begged that fake bald donkey to embarrass me. What is it!"

Since the battle with Wan Qixiong, Taoist Kugen has gradually become wary of Qi Cheng, and he is not allowed to participate in refining medicine, but can only be a handyman.

When Qi Ze was doing medical consultations for the common people, he was idle and listening to interesting stories. Some of the common people said mysteriously: "The doctor knows that there is an eminent monk in that city who can use mantras to kill evil spirits. Healing all kinds of diseases is really powerful!"

The crowd laughed and said: "You have blind eyes, and that divine monk is the divine doctor!"

The man was shocked and said: "Since you are a genius doctor, why don't you shave your head and don't wear a monk's robe?"

Qi Ze said with a smile: "I haven't received full precepts yet, so I dress up in a vulgar way."

The man laughed and said, "What is a vulgar face? What is a Buddha's face? What is a human face? A divine doctor is a divine monk, so what is a divine monk?"

Qi Ze's heart moved, and he said: "There is no appearance of self, no appearance of human beings, no appearance of sentient beings, no appearance of longevity! Anyway, since you ask a question, you should explain it for you! Today I will explain a volume of "Diamond Sutra" for everyone, and it will be widely distributed in the future. Spreading it is also a merit!"

Immediately, imitating the image of Ruo Tuo giving the Dharma to the Lonely Garden in the only tree in the country of Sravasti, he ascended the seat barefoot, and proclaimed the "Vajra Prajna Paramita Sutra" for everyone.

The words of this sutra are simple, but they can demonstrate the subtle meaning of Buddhism. Qi Ze narrates it so eloquently that even illiterate people can understand it. There are more than 5,000 words in a scripture, and Qi Ze talked for a full day, but he only talked about a thousand words. But in order to make everyone ignorant, everyone has something to gain.

The people were fascinated by what they heard. After eating the porridge and rice, the victims had nothing to do, so they gathered to listen to the scriptures. Later, more and more people gathered, and there were thousands of people. The spies were very worried, they squeezed into the crowd and saw that it was Qi Ze who was giving a lecture, and he didn't dare to preside over it, so he hurried back to the city to report the news.

When it was time to light the lamps, Qi Ze stopped talking. He was eloquent all day long, talking non-stop, and a little tired, he said: "It's not early today, let's eat and rest first, and continue tomorrow!"

Everyone was reluctant to part with them, but in desperation, they had to go to the porridge shed to eat first. After the crowd had dispersed, Qi Ze didn't go to eat, but sat cross-legged in meditation on the spot, practicing Zen.

It's really like the Buddha's nature is running endlessly in the sedation. I feel that there are many golden things flowing down. In the calm state, let go of joy and joy, and get the heart of neither suffering nor joy.

As far as his experience of practicing meditation is concerned, there are two shortcuts to improve the realm of Xiao Wuxiang Chan, one is to collect and refine the merits of the past and future, and the other is to refine the power of incense and fire. The merits and virtues of heaven and earth can be met but cannot be sought. Once the power of incense and vows is contaminated, it is easy to fall into the evil way, and the burden is too heavy. It seems to be a shortcut, but it is not a safe way. It is a solid way to practice step by step.

In the quiet night, Qi Ze was sitting in meditation, and no one disturbed him. Suddenly, his footsteps sounded lightly, and the person who asked him the Dharma first during the day sneaked over again.

Qi Ze immediately came out of samadhi and said, "You're here!"

When the man approached, he suddenly knelt down, and when he got up, he wiped his face with his hands, and he turned into a monk Luo Hai, and said: "I have offended you a lot during the day, please forgive me, Master Qi!"

Qi Ze said: "I knew it was you, how could I blame you! It's just how did you find me?"

Monk Luo Hai said: "The disciple was studying Buddhist scriptures in a few small countries in the extreme north, and then found a secluded place to retreat and consolidate his realm. He just left the retreat the day before yesterday, and learned that Master Qi really went down to Mount Wufeng. Chase all the way. Master Qi showed supernatural powers on the front line, and there are traces of Buddhism, so it is not difficult to find."

Qi Ze nodded and said: "It's hard for you to cultivate according to the law, but you still have to worry about me, a little monk, and I have to thank you!"

Monk Luo Hai hurriedly said: "Master Qi must not underestimate himself in this way. With Master Qi's understanding of Buddhism, within a few years, there will be great achievements."

Qi Ze said: "I hope so! During the day, if you open your mouth and ask me to explain the scriptures, I will know that it is you, and you are the only one who knows the mysteries of this "Diamond Sutra."

Monk Luo Hai said: "I also have good intentions. I was afraid that Master Qi would not pass on the scriptures to all living beings, so I took the initiative to ask." It turned out that he was pretending to be the man in the daytime, and specially set up a trick to ask Qi Ze to preach the "Diamond Sutra".

Qi Ze sighed: "I only taught you this sutra before, because the opportunity was not ripe. Since you asked the Dharma on behalf of all living beings, I will spread this sutra on behalf of the Buddha, helping all living beings to fully understand the original and open up the wisdom of prajna."

Monk Luo Hai said happily: "Master Qi means that the opportunity has come, is it enough to publish this sutra in the world?"

Qi Ze said: "This is natural! This sutra is spread all over the world, it can also deter demons, and boost the authenticity of Buddhism! Tomorrow when I enter the city, I will ask King Zhenbei and the Murong family to call a bookstore in the city to publish this sutra. Forget it, but a wish."

Monk Luo Hai was overjoyed, bowed again and said: "This disciple wants to thank Master Qi for teaching the Dharma on behalf of all living beings in the world!"

Qi Ze said: "One sutra and one mantra are also taught by me from the Buddha. How can I keep it secret? If there are sentient beings who can benefit from it, it is also a blessing for me!"

Monk Luo Hai suddenly hesitated, and tried to ask: "I have a question, do you know if I should explain it or not?"

Qi Ze said: "Since you have doubts, feel free to speak up."

Monk Luo Hai said: "Since the "Diamond Sutra" was said by the Buddha, it is indeed a modest statement, but I don't know which Buddha it came from?"

Qi Ze thought for a while and said: "The universe has an eternity, and the Dharma has no birth and death. Since the beginningless kalpa, there have been Buddhas as many as the sands of the Ganges River who have awakened to the Dharma, and they have attained the supreme enlightenment. This "Diamond Sutra" is written by a Sakyamuni The Dharma preached by Neva.”

Monk Luo Hai nodded and said: "So that's the case! How can I explain the number of sands in the Ganges River?"

Qi Ze said: "The Ganges River is a big river in the world when Sakyamuni Buddha lived in the world. The number of gravel in it is used as a metaphor for the infinite number, so it is called the number of sands in the Ganges River." Which Buddha is enshrined in it?"

Monk Luo Hai said: "The one enshrined in the Great Bodhi Temple is Dingjue Tathagata. This Buddha has achieved the supreme enlightenment with the power of deep meditation, so he is named Dingjue. It is said that Nalanda Temple also enshrines this statue. The Buddha, and even all the Dharma in this world was passed down by the Buddha."

This time it was Qi Ze's turn to nod his head, and said: "I see! Although the Buddha is different, the Dharma he said is consistent, you must not give birth to a different mind, so that you can neglect your practice."

Although Qi Ze is only in the realm of the Three Zens, he behaves like a teacher to Monk Luo Hai, and Monk Luo Hai obeys awe-inspiringly, saying: "Yes, I will definitely obey Master Qi's teachings!"

Qi Ze said: "I have something here and I need your help."

Monk Luo Hai said: "But it's about the Five Poisons Sect?"

Qi Ze said: "That's right! I used the power of the Buddha's mantra to destroy the clone of Wan Qixiong, and he will definitely take revenge with hatred. Originally, I was worried that the entire Youzhou City would be affected by me alone. Now that you have left the customs, I invite you Go stop him, if you can kill him, it will be the best, and it will be his retribution."

Monk Luo Hai said: "My disciples have also heard about Wan Qixiong. He is an extremely difficult figure in the Five Poisons Sect. He vowed to cultivate five kinds of poisonous insects and refine them to become the God of Five Poisons. Hands and feet, you can try it now."

Qi Ze said: "I don't have anything to do here for the time being, so I'll trouble you to go up and stop that guy, so as not to harm the innocent!"

Monk Luo Hai said: "Yes!" He heard Qi Ze's speech on the "Diamond Sutra", and he realized something in his heart. If Wan Qixiong is not surrendered and eradicated, Qi Ze is always restless.

Monk Luo Hai didn't delay any longer, and immediately turned into a streamer and left. Qi Ze is slightly at ease with this great master of Dharma protection. Since his debut, he has upheld the idea of ​​preaching the scriptures, either actively or passively, and has caused many troubles. His own family is also troubled, but there is nothing to do. Life is so miserable, even if you cherish your body, sometimes you can't help yourself.

At dawn on the second day, before Qi Ze could enter the city, Murong Qing had already found him and said: "I heard that the master gave a lecture here yesterday, so I came here today to ask for advice."

Qi Ze said: "Buddhism and Taoism are sparse, but since fellow Taoist Murong has the heart, please stay here!" When he said that, the people who hadn't finished listening to the lecture yesterday came here again, asking Qi Ze to ascend to the seat to preach the scriptures.

Qi Ze didn't say much, and started the lecture by himself, which was still a "Diamond Sutra".

Murong Qing was originally an old god, but after waiting for Qi Ze to say a few words, his complexion changed, his ears perked up, and he listened intently. The more he listened, the more dignified his face became, and he thought: "This precious scripture..." There was a faint understanding in his heart, even the golden core state was a little loose, and it seemed that he could already glimpse the Nascent Soul state.

Murong Qing's informality fits the true meaning of cultivating the Dao, and he is loved by the elders of the Great Heaven Gang Sect, otherwise he would not have cultivated into a golden elixir in his middle-aged body. In order to be single-minded and diligent, he didn't even sacrifice the magic weapon of his own life, and even tied his hands and feet to tens of thousands of heroes.

The scriptures mentioned by Qi Ze actually have many benefits for his practice, it seems to reflect the true nature of his nature, Murong Qing was very surprised, immediately devoted himself to memorizing, fearing not to miss a single word.

At noon, Qi Ze stopped to teach the Fa, sent everyone to lunch, and only drank some water at home. Murong Qing leaned forward and said: "The scriptures spoken by the master are profound and mysterious, it seems that there is no teaching in the Great Bodhi Temple, I don't know where it came from?"

Qi Ze said: "This sutra was also proclaimed by the Buddha, there is absolutely no doubt about it, fellow Taoists don't have to doubt it."

Murong Qing smiled and said: "That's right! This sutra speaks in a subtle way~www.readwn.com~ It tells the way of the true nature, which can only be realized by the Buddha. I am a Taoist monk, how dare I doubt it? I don't know if the master is willing to share this sutra. Publish it and spread the thoughts of the world?"

Qi Ze said with a smile: "I have my wish, but I dare not ask for it!" Murong Qing exclaimed happily: "So I, Murong, would like to be the pioneer! I am willing to give up all my wealth to help the master print the scriptures!"

Qi Ze smiled secretly: "The Murong family brothers are also interesting. They just dissipate the family wealth without talking. I don't know what resentment they have for this ancestral foundation?" Patriarch Xuan discussed this matter."

Murong Qing waved his hands, and said: "There is no need to discuss it! I can make the decision myself, and you don't have to look for King Zhenbei. The printing of the scriptures will be undertaken by my Murong family alone!" If it can help him break through the shackles, how can he be willing to distribute it to King Zhenbei and let that guy take advantage of it?

Qi Ze said: "Being kind is like a stream. The more people who donate money to print scriptures, the better. King Zhenbei sits in Youzhou, and with his help, we will get twice the result with half the effort."

Murong Qing knew that this matter could not be avoided by the King of Zhenbei, so he had no choice but to say: "Forget it, you go to find the King of Zhenbei, I will go and find my elder brother. Master can print the scriptures for me, and I will immediately Organize people to open the seal!"

Qi Ze said: "That's fine! I'd like to borrow the Taoist robe from a fellow Taoist!"

Murong Qing said: "What's so difficult about this!" Then he took off his Taoist robe and handed it to Qi Ze. Qi Ze held the Taoist robe in his hands, and after a moment of concentration, there was writing on the Taoist robe, which was exactly the content of the scripture. Daoist Ningsha, Buddhist Sanzen, and printing scriptures on cloth and silk are nothing more than trivial matters.

A stick of incense passed, and a complete "Diamond Sutra" appeared on the Taoist robe. Murong Qing took it impatiently, and recited a few lines, only to feel the fragrance on his teeth and cheeks, and the entrance was meaningful, and he sighed again and again: "It's really The Peerless Treasure Sutra!"
