This is Fengshen, what's the use of hard work

Chapter 365

After the Kyushu re-establishment, the luck in the world has become strong enough to rival the way of heaven.

Not to mention immortals, even saints dare not peek into the world easily.

If Western religions want to contact believers in the human world, they must go through the Chentangguan Tongtian Port. They must first contact the believers in Chentangguan, and then use the communication jade tokens in the human world to inform their believers.

Therefore, Zhunti's holy metaphors were handed down to the world, and they all arrived at Chentangguan, and then they flew to Lingshan, Chentangguan, Chaoge, and several Yixia school palaces.

however.

It wasn't long after opening these communication jade cards that Boy Bailian opened his eyes that were more indifferent than Tiandao.

There is no emotion in his eyes, but there is every emotion.

Immediately afterwards, the news was sent to the dark thread of the dark net through a messenger.

In the territory of Dashang.

These human races who received the summons from Zhunti all showed the smile of the Virgin Mary who understood the depth of life and the sobriety of life.

But they didn't know that there was also a patient-like gaze staring at him calmly.

Almost at the same time, Zishou received a message from Boy Bailian.

However, Zishou didn't intend to catch them all, so he killed them directly.

These people, because their speech is different from ordinary people, have already received the attention of the dark net, and a special person was arranged to watch them a long time ago.

Most of them are immigrants from Guishuang, and many are craftsmen in Western teaching workshops, and some are scholars supported by Western teaching workshops.

These people think they are hiding deep.

In fact, their list has already been placed on Zishou's desk.

"Master Prisoner, what seeker? You mean my great disciple Hong Chao?"

As soon as Zishou finished speaking, Hong Yi's voice reached his mind.

Zishou smiled and said, "That's right. I remember that you once said that one of your disciples has been clamoring to come to the Eastern Land to seek enlightenment."

Hong Yi couldn't help laughing and said: "He, he is not a seeker, he is a book mover... Over the years, he has transported thousands of books from the East, and he is still moving. I let him sit He insisted on carrying the Tianji car back on foot, saying that he was sincere."

"Oh yes, a few days ago when you ruled the Three Kingdoms, many Guishuang people fled with a lot of scriptures, and they were also robbed by him."

"Now, these books are hidden in the rebel army, oh no, they named themselves the Revolutionary Army. These books are all hidden in the library cave in the base of the Revolutionary Army."

Zishou: ...

Since Hong Yi was released from prison, he hardly asked about Hong Yi Xitu.

Looking at it now, Hong Yi's years in Xitu were quite difficult.

Not only do you have to run around, but you also have to carry thousands of books...

Zishou said helplessly:

"I'm looking for him."

"Now Western religion imitates the method of the fall of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Sect, directly descending the Daleiyin Temple to the human world, establishing Buddhism, and creating the Lingshan Pure Land. The situation in the West Land may change rapidly, and it will be more complicated than the coming of the Kingdom of God."

"You already know the game between the two saints of the West and me. I asked Hong Chao to be this seeker. What do you think?"

After Zishou's words fell, Hong Yi was silent for a long time before he said: "Master Prisoner... I think that lame horse is more suitable than him..."

Zishou: ...

He chuckled and said, "It seems that your apprentice is really worried. I don't know, do you have any other candidates?"

Hong Yi sighed, and said, "If the situation in the Western Lands hadn't become more and more severe, I would have wanted to be this seeker."

Zishou laughed and said, "The seeker must be an ordinary person."

Hong Yi heard this, pondered for a moment, and said:
"Then let this villain go..."

"After all, he is familiar with the road..."

"He has climbed Kunlun in the human world countless times. Once, he was almost kept by the military master and asked him to practice the way of magic. Later, for some reason, he was released again."

When Zishou heard this, he suddenly regretted it.He originally wanted to change people, but after thinking about it, he gave up. After all, the key to the success of learning the scriptures lies in the protector, and the seeker is just a mascot.

Then Zishou said:

"Then trouble Brother Hong, let Hong Chao get ready. For him, this is an opportunity."

Hong Yi nodded and said, "I don't know Mr. Prisoner, but have you arranged someone to protect the way?"

Zi Shou smiled and said, "At that time, I will know."

After Zishou finished speaking, he stopped talking, and Hong Yi's spiritual consciousness didn't come back.

He was clearly standing outside the Shouxian Palace, but the shadow of Jizhou City was reflected in his eyes.

It was Bailian boy who passed the picture of Jizhou to Zishou's mind through the messenger.

……

at this time.

world.

The lower school palace in Yizhou, Jizhou.

A master fell down on a high platform in lotus legs, with his palms folded, his face kind and compassionate, and he was about to explain his knowledge to thousands of disciples.

Lectures are a trend that gradually formed after the establishment of Yixia Academy.

In other words, it was a system formed under the instruction of Zishou.

It's called Yi Xia Lun Dao.

In Dashang, as long as there are scholars who want to publicize their ideas, they will have the opportunity to give lectures and preach to the people of the world on the podium of the Yixia Academy.

This system is extremely free and rarely restricted, and speech is not even controlled by the laws of big business.

However, all lecturers must accept questions and questions from the audience.

Because the attendees are not necessarily those who are ignorant of reading, on the contrary, most of them are well-educated people, and there are even world-renowned enlightened people.

If the lecturer’s knowledge is relatively unique, such as propagating hatred, violating human relations, provoking public outrage, and afterward, some righteous teachers and green forest heroes come to learn martial arts, and the government will not be responsible if they are killed.

As the saying goes, once on the podium, life and death are fate.

As long as you have the courage to stand up, as long as you are not afraid of causing public anger, as long as you are not afraid of being criticized and questioned all over the sky, you can go to the government to register and give lectures on stage at an appointed time.

Since the beginning of discussing Taoism in Yixia, there have been countless people who are not afraid of life and death, and there are also many scholars who even risked their lives to promote their own ideas.

Because of this, more and more great merchants realize the Tao. Reading is no longer because of worshiping Emperor Xin, or because of Zishou's cry and call, but because of the reason for its rise, forming a unique Lecture atmosphere.

This custom was once praised by inscriptions, which were posted on the podiums of every Yixia Academy.

The content of the inscription is: Yixia Xuegong, a hundred schools of thought contend.

Now, the scholar who is giving lectures at the Xiaxue Palace in Jizhou is a person who is unconventional in knowledge.

His surname is Shakya, and he is a member of the Shakya clan of the Guishuang royal family.

Back then, big merchants recruited immigrants from all over the world, and he was one of them.

The principles he taught are called the Three Vehicles Dafa.

This method is not the knowledge of Dashang, but the knowledge of Guishuang.

At the beginning, the Western gods came down to the human world to spread Taoism, and what was brought into Guishuang was not only heresy, but also the teachings of the West, the Three Vehicles and Dafa.

After he came to Dashang, he was favored by a master because he used the knowledge of the three vehicles to discuss the Tao with others, and he became a disciple.

After the master accepted him, not only did he not teach him his own knowledge, but let him spread his knowledge everywhere.

The three vehicles are the Mahayana, the Middle Vehicle, and the Hinayana.

The Hinayana method refers to the principle of hearing, seeing and seeing.

The method of the middle vehicle refers to the truth of self-understanding and the mystery of comprehension.

The Dharma of the Mahayana means that all dharmas are accessible, free from defilement and attachment, away from all appearances of dharmas, and there is no one Dharma to obtain. No matter what principles are in the Mahayana, they can come and go without hindrance and at ease, and can be used to go to the Mahayana. tell.

However, this is not what makes him unique.

After all, among the contention of a hundred schools of thought, such arguments are innumerable.

The novelty of this man's argument is that before he teaches people to enlightenment, he first teaches people to suffer.

Every time he would choose the day with the worst weather, either the scorching sun or the violent storm, and when he stepped on the podium, he would sprinkle nails on the stairs and carry a brazier on his body.

And after he has gone through all kinds of hardships to get on the podium, everything is not over yet.

He will not drink for three days and not eat for seven days. After suffering all the hardships, he will start to give lectures to the students in the audience.

The first sentence is that the world is a purgatory, a furnace, a sea of ​​suffering, full of endless suffering, and only through the sea of ​​suffering can one reach the other shore.

Today is the fourth lecture given by this person.

This time, as usual, he boarded the podium of the Yixia Academy. After seven days of hunger, he opened his eyes and looked at the audience still full of speakers, with pity and relief on his face.

He opened his mouth and said: "Everyone who is close and loyal, Sakyamuni is very pleased to see your faces again. Unexpectedly, after many days, only [-]% of your faces have been replaced by new people."

"It's a pity, there are still [-]% of people who are willing to come and discuss the three vehicles with me again."

offstage.

The futons that [-] scholars are qualified to make are already full.

Beyond the futon, the Yixia School, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, is already full of people from Jizhou.

These people are basically students of rural studies.

They have just graduated from school, or even entered school, this scene of contention among a hundred schools of thought is more attractive to them than the little ladies in the market.

After all, a good man's ambition is to realize the Tao, which is the most reasonable thing in the world.

Sakyamuni was sitting on a three-foot podium, and his voice seemed to have some kind of power, even if it was hundreds of feet away, he could still hear it clearly, even if he was under the podium, he didn't feel the sound was too loud.

No matter where it is, the sound it hears is actually the same.

"Master Shi, it's true that he hasn't eaten for seven days?"

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. This time, he didn't even drink water."

"Without eating or drinking for seven days, the voice is still so sonorous and powerful. It is worthy of enlightenment."

"He is not an enlightened person, but a scholar."

"How is this possible? It's just an ordinary scholar who can live without eating the world's fireworks for seven days, but still has a smooth body and a smooth voice..."

"Yes, according to what he said, he can control his physical body and enter a mysterious state."

Those who listened to the study talked a lot, they were most curious about this kind of unconventional person, especially a scholar who was unconventional and could still live and speak four times in a row, which was very rare.

Sakyamuni put his palms together and bowed to the audience, and then began to give lectures. All kinds of anecdotes and strange things were slowly told from his mouth. After everything was said, there was some kind of thinking and reasoning.

At the end of the day, though, it’s preaching misery.

After half a day.

The lecture is over.

This is the rule of discussing Taoism in the city.

No matter what the scholar's reasoning is, since he has gone up, since he has something to say, give him half a day.

After half a day, no matter whether you have finished the lecture or not, you will start to enter the stage of discussing the Tao.

After Sakyamuni finished his last sentence, he thanked the listeners and closed his eyes without speaking.

He knew that, based on the experience of the previous few lectures, what awaited him next was a storm of questioning.

When discussing Taoism in the city, it is often not the lecturer who is in the limelight at the beginning, but the listener who is questioning the audience.

In other words, a discourser.

Many unknown scholars became famous overnight by discussing Taoism with famous people.

If you can argue against celebrities, you will naturally become celebrities.

If they can't argue, it can also make them famous.

So... the people in the audience are not necessarily his supporters, but the Taoists.

Sure enough, after the discussion started, one audience after another immediately stood up, holding scrolls in their hands, raising their hands as a signal, and began to talk eloquently.

"Master Shi, if you cut off your lust and don't eat the fireworks in the world, is that person still a person? Isn't this... a fairy who was kicked out of the world by His Majesty?"

"Master Shi, if you accumulate virtue and do good deeds, you will receive blessings in the next life. Should you suffer in this life?"

"Master Shi, Your Majesty traveled to the south to preach, and engraved the world-renowned stele of enlightenment. I don't know what kind of Mahayana way you are talking about?"

"Master Shi, you said that life is like a sea of ​​suffering, but I don't think it is bitter, but instead feel that life is full of joy, laughter, family and friendship..."

"Master Shi, are you suffering? You are suffering, how about I tell you a joke? If I can make you laugh, does it mean that you have saved you from the sea of ​​suffering? According to Master, will I become a Buddha?"

"Master Shi, my Dashang does not have a Shi surname. I heard that you are from Guishuang. Is the reason you are talking about the reason why Guishuang lost to Dashang?"

Sakyamuni sat on the podium with a smile on his face. Although his eyes were still peaceful, anger had already set off in his heart.

None of these ignorant people care about the mysteries of the Three Vehicles Dafa, but they are all eloquent and eloquent, and even verbal attacks. They are really inferior vehicles.

If it wasn't for the afterlife, he definitely wouldn't stay even a quarter of an hour in this filthy world.

The filthy world needs to be purified by the three vehicles.

At this time, he has not started to respond to these Taoists, he just closed his eyes and rested his mind, but suddenly opened his eyes, raised his eyes, and looked towards the west, with some kind of longing and longing in his eyes.

this moment.

In his eyes, he saw a golden Buddhist golden body manifested in the void!

This Buddhist golden body is none other than Medicine Master Tathagata.

In the Three Vehicles Dafa, there is the pharmacist Liuliguang Tathagata's original vow merit scripture, so Sakyamuni immediately recognized the identity of this Buddhist golden body.

The master of the eastern glazed world is the pharmacist Liuliguang Tathagata.

He looked forward with longing eyes, and was about to stand up and salute, but the voice of Medicine Master Tathagata rang in his ears.

"Shakya, don't be too polite, don't be surprised, don't get up, you are the only one who can see the deity in this world."

"Buddha is only in the hearts of those who are destined."

Sakyamuni was taken aback when he heard the words, and asked in his heart: "Dare to ask the teacher, what is a Buddha?"

Medicine Master Tathagata nodded and said:

"Today, the Buddhist gate was established for the first time. It is not an exaggeration for you to not know the Buddha."

"Buddha, Jue Ye, the two-legged statue of Buddha's blessing and wisdom, the Buddha is the one who has perfected his merit and wisdom. All sentient beings may become Buddhas after going through the sea of ​​suffering and suffering."

Hearing the words, Sakyamuni said again: "Could it be that the Buddha is the Buddha in the three vehicles? According to the rumors, those who are self-conscious, aware of others, and aware of the perfection of actions have obtained great wisdom, and the great Buddha who can see through all phases of the three worlds. Saint?"

Medicine Master Tathagata was overjoyed, and immediately said, "No wonder the sage values ​​you so much."

Sakyamuni was delighted and said, "I don't know what the teacher is here for?"

Pharmacist Tathagata held up the flowers and smiled, and the light of the Buddha in front of him shone everywhere, saying: "The sage is playing chess with the king of men. I want to find a Buddhist believer in the east land, and go to the west land to worship Buddha and ask for scriptures."

"I don't know, are you willing to go?"

Sakyamuni said without hesitation: "The disciple is willing to go!"
