Chapter 726 Taoism and Magical Powers
When he was talking to Shi Xuanming, Yun Zhenzi and Monk Hongyun were standing opposite each other on the stage, clasping their heads and greeting each other.
Although he had been tortured by the Japanese pirates before, he did not hate the Japanese monks on the stage. The reason was undoubtedly because of his senior sister Takeda Mayumi. Takeda Mayumi was also an envoy sent by Japan to the Tang Dynasty, but she was a kind-hearted person.
of good people.
In addition, there is another reason why he does not hate the Japanese monk named Hongyun, and that is that in the final competition of Bronze Talisman, Miao Nu killed the challenger in order to kill the chicken and scare the monkey, and even the opponent had already surrendered and left.
He did not give up. When he was wielding the poisonous whip to attack the blue-shirted swordsman who had left the scene, a red-clothed monk took action in time and caught the poison-tempering whip with his bare hands before the whip could hurt the blue-shirted swordsman, saving the man.
The swordsman in blue was killed, and the monk in red who came to save him was Monk Hongyun who was standing on the stage at that time.
Yun Zhenzi and Monk Hongyun bowed to each other and then retreated. They were about ten feet apart and were on alert, ready to attack.
Although I have no prejudice against Monk Hongyun, deep down I don’t want this person to win. After all, this person is Japanese. Even if Monk Hongyun and the Japanese pirates are not from the same group, it is not a good thing for the protective silver amulet to fall into the hands of the Japanese. It is a variable.
If it is too large, it will easily lead to hidden dangers in the future.
"What do you think?" He turned to look at Shi Xuanming on his left.
Shi Xuanming said in a low voice, "This person has previously pulled the poison-tempered whip of a Miao woman with his bare hands but was not poisoned. Either he is as proficient in pharmacology as you and is not afraid of hundreds of poisons, or he is profound in Buddhism and has obtained a golden body that is indestructible. No matter
In any case, it will not be easy for Yun Zhenzi to win."
He nodded and said, "I have thought of what you said. Although I have some knowledge of Buddhism, I am limited to Mahayana teachings. What is the difference between Hinayana teachings and Mahayana teachings?"
Shi Xuanming clarified his thoughts and then said, "The correct names for Mahayana teachings and Hinayana teachings should be Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism. Hinayana Buddhism is more powerful than Mahayana Buddhism.
Ancient, Mahayana Buddhism is derived from Hinayana Buddhism. Mahayana Buddhism focuses on the Six Parasols and Four Impartments in practice, while Hinayana Buddhism focuses on the Three Learnings and Eight Paths..."
"It's concise and concise." He frowned and interrupted.
Hearing the words, Shi Xuanming could only try to be straightforward, "The Hinayana Buddha saves oneself, and the Mahayana Buddha saves people. The Mahayana Buddha teaches more compassion and ambition than the Hinayana Buddha, while the Hinayana Buddha teaches more pragmatism and truth-seeking than the Mahayana Buddha."
Seeing that he was still frowning, Shi Xuanming had no choice but to explain in detail, "The Hinayana Buddhism believes that there is only one Buddha in the world, and that is the Buddha. No matter how hard a monk practices, he cannot become a Buddha. At most, he can only achieve Arhat status. But the Mahayana Buddhism law
I believe that there are countless Buddhas in the three worlds and ten directions, and as long as they are sincere and dedicated, all living beings can become Buddhas."
"Who is right?" asked.
"I can't say who is right or wrong, I can only say that each has his or her own reasons," Shi Xuanming shook his head and said, "But I dare to tell you the truth, I feel that Mahayana Buddhism is a bit evasive and does not explain to the world how difficult it is to become a Buddha.
, ordinary people want to become a Buddha, one life is not enough, at least hundreds of lives have to be practiced. The Hinayana Buddhism practice is the three learnings and eight ways, not seeking greatness, not greedy for too much, if you want to become an Arhat, you need to practice for at least three lives, or more.
Then sixty lives are within reach."
"If the world knew that the road to becoming a Buddha is so difficult and requires hundreds of lifetimes of practice, there would be many people who would be discouraged." He said with a smile. Although Shi Xuanming is a disciple of Buddhism, he does not blindly believe in it. This is extremely rare. You must know that most of the people will be discouraged.
Monks and lay followers are blind and fanatical, and cannot hear a word of questioning. Anyone who says anything about Buddhism is like digging up their ancestral graves. There are very few people who can believe in Buddhism but remain sober like Shi Xuanming.
Very few, and this is the reason why he was expelled from the mountain gate. You must know that when everyone is closed
When you open your eyes, you are guilty.
Shi Xuanming shook his head helplessly and did not answer.
"Which one has more advantage in actual combat, Hinayana Buddhism or Mahayana Buddhism?" he asked again.
"Of course it is Hinayana Buddhism," Shi Xuanming said sternly. "Bhikkhus who practice Hinayana Buddhism aim to save themselves. All the aspiration and power are concentrated in themselves, and it is easy to enlighten to supernatural powers."
At this time, the sound of the drums had changed from slow to fast, and both parties were about to take action. They nodded and said no more.
After a while, the drum sound suddenly stopped, Yun Zhenzi followed the same method, burned the invisibility charm and disappeared.
Monk Hongyun clasped his hands together and was not in a hurry to take action. He just turned his head slightly and stared northwest.
You can also see Yun Zhenzi after being invisible, so you know that where Monk Hongyun is looking is exactly where Yun Zhenzi is.
Seeing Monk Hongyun looking at him, Yun Zhenzi frowned, and then he took two more talismans and threw them to the north and south. At the same time, he moved a few feet to the right with the sound of the wind breaking from the talisman.
Monk Hongyun was not misled by the spell, but slowly turned around and faced the west, still looking at the location of Yun Zhenzi.
Shi Xuanming said in a low voice, "If I guess correctly, he should have enlightened to the clairvoyance, and Yun Zhenzi's invisibility technique is of no use to him."
Nodding slowly, Shi Xuanming said it did make sense, and he also had this suspicion.
At this time, Yun Zhenzi also suspected that the other party could see him. In order to further confirm, he immediately took out a five-baht that had been used before from his arms, threw it out with his backhand, and took the opportunity to change his position.
Yun Zhenzi's change of position this time was to go back and forth, moving three steps south and then moving back nine feet, and finally stood in the same position.
Monk Hongyun tilted his head to the left and then moved his gaze back to the original place. This move directly confirmed Yun Zhenzi's guess.
The other party can indeed see you.
The invisibility spell is just one of Yun Zhenzi's many spells. If the invisibility spell doesn't work, Yun Zhenzi doesn't panic. He then takes out a few talismans from his sleeves and folds them quickly while reciting the spells silently. After the spell is recited, the talismans folded into square shapes follow.
He let go of his hand and flew away towards Monk Hongyun.
Monk Hongyun remained motionless with his hands clasped together. In the blink of an eye, the talisman came close to him and burst into flames.
When the smoke dissipated, Monk Hongyun stood calmly, unscathed, and even his monk's robes were not damaged.
"The indestructible magical power of Vajra?" Shi Xuanming was shocked.
He frowned slightly and did not answer. Monk Hongyun never made a counterattack, which showed that he was confident. If he did not have enough confidence, Monk Hongyun could pretend not to see Yun Zhenzi and try to trick him into getting close to him and then severely injure him. But Hongyun
The monk did not do that, which shows that this person is very confident, and Yun Zhenzi has encountered a tough situation this time.
"Namo Amitabha," Monk Hongyun clasped his hands and chanted the Buddha's name, then turned and spoke in a low voice, "Everything that has an appearance is false. If you see all appearances that are not appearances, you will see the Tathagata."
Yun Zhenzi failed to hit the target, so he immediately mobilized his body skills to go around the stone platform, taking back all the five bahts scattered around the stone platform that were still spinning rapidly, and then bit the middle finger of his left hand while spinning, and placed it on his right palm.
The copper coins quickly slid over the stone platform, and every time he turned around, a Yun Zhenzi appeared on the stone platform. After circling around Monk Hongyun, all the six burial five bahts had left his hand, including the main body.
There were seven identical Yun Zhenzi on the stage.
Since the copper coins buried with the body possess both yin and yang energy, the avatar transformed after being stained with blood and channeled is the same as the original aura. Therefore, even if the eyes of the sky are opened, it is impossible to distinguish the true from the false for a while.
