Chapter 732 To fight or not to fight

   “I only saw Xuanzang? This **** is getting more and more suspicious!” The monkey sighed, without saying hello to the hidden companions around, and flew out straight away.

   I saw a flash of white light, and when he fell from the sky again, he had transformed into a flying insect flapping its wings and flew towards Xuanzang, who was walking slowly on the trail.

   For a moment, Lingji in the back hall seemed to sense something and was slightly stunned.

   Beside that, a tall and thin monk in a golden robe also quickly looked in the direction of Xuanzang, and muttered to himself, “Why doesn’t he hide his breath?”

After a while, Lingji smiled slowly and sighed: “Why hide it? We, don’t we hide it? Westbound Proving Dao is Yang Conspiracy. It is the same for me, and for them. Prepare Come on, welcome our distinguished guests. Anyway… Jin Chanzi.”

   “Disciple obeys.” The tall and thin monk folded his hands in a salute, and bowed out of the door.

   Not long after, Xuanzang came to the door. Under the guidance of the monk, step by step into the back hall.

   Lingji, who was sitting on the futon, glanced at the flying insects that had silently rested on Xuanzang’s shoulders, and smiled faintly.

   Walking to Lingji step by step, Xuanzang put his hands together and said, “Xuanzang sees Buddha!”

   After saying that, he had to kneel down.

   Seeing that Xuanzang was about to kneel, Lingji quickly stretched out his hand, and the futon was removed out of thin air.

   At this move, Xuanzang was stunned for a moment and stopped.

   Until this time. Lingji hooked his fingers and moved the futon under Xuanzang’s knees again. He sighed softly: “Lingji can’t stand this big gift. After all, you are also Senior Brother Jin Chanzi. Since you are here, sit down.”

   “The Venerable Xie Lingji bestowed the seat.” Xuanzang immediately understood the identity of the other party in his heart. Just nodded silently. He sat on the futon and said nothing.

   The tall and thin monk quickly brought two cups of hot tea, one on the left and one on the right, and pushed them in front of Lingji and Xuanzang respectively.

   Gently flicking his sleeves, Ling Jishen stared at the hot tea in front of Xuanzang and said: “Tast it, this is the authentic tea tasting on Lingshan, specially brought to you.”

   “The Venerable Xie Lingji bestowed tea.” Another silent salute. Xuanzang reached out and took the cup of hot tea.

   from start to finish. His every move is extremely decent, and it can even be said that he is a little indifferent.

   Holding the cup of hot tea, Xuanzang sighed softly and took a light sip.

   With this sip, his brows furrowed slightly.

   “Tasteless?” Lingji asked softly.

   This question made Xuanzang feel even more puzzled. He shook his head slowly. Answered: “Tasteless.”

“It’s just right to be tasteless.” Lingji said with a light smile: “The four major parts of Buddhism are empty, so how can Lingshan tea taste? However, the most suitable tea from Lingshan is to use Lingshan water to brew it. The water in the world. , it is still somewhat impurity. It is not pure enough. Good tea should be mixed with water. Otherwise, it will be wasted.”

   Xuanzang lowered his head and took two more sips before putting down the teacup in his hand, still staring straight ahead without saying a word. It was as if he hadn’t heard Lingji’s words at all.

Seeing this, Lingji sighed again: “Buddhism, and the good tea in Lingshan, have the same effect. The so-called Dao has no traces, Dafa has no boundaries, and it is true. Some things, once they have a relationship with the mundane world. It’s gone. The taste has changed.”

   After saying that, Lingji looked at Xuanzang meaningfully.

   After a while, Xuanzang raised his eyes slightly and asked softly, “Does Venerable Lingji mean something?”

  Lingji laughed dumbly and said, “Could it be that Senior Brother Jin Chanzi thought that Lingji came here just to have tea with you?”

   “What if you don’t drink tea?”

   “The Law.”

   “On what method?”

“The Dharma of Buddhism!” I saw Lingji’s sleeves fluttering, and he said loudly: “Lingshan is already in front of you, above Lingshan, is the Daleiyin Temple, and in the Daleiyin Temple are all the Buddhas. Brother Jin Chanzi wants to It is better to pass the Lingji level in this ‘Little Leiyin Temple’ to debate the law at Daleiyin Temple. If Brother Jin Chanzi can beat Lingji in the debate, Lingji will go up the mountain with Brother Jinchanzi. , in front of all the Buddhas, show your new method, Brother Jin Chanzi. If it doesn’t work… even Lingji can’t argue, brother, please come back!”

   After saying that, Lingji slapped her palm in front of him and propped up her body. Those eyes were as big as copper bells, and they stared at Xuanzang intently.

   Once this posture is set, it means that the debate begins.

   At the same time, on the other side, Xuan Zang still had that indifferent face, sitting motionless.

   For a moment, the atmosphere seemed to freeze, and the hall was silent.

  …

   “Report to Venerable.” On Lingshan, a monk bowed in front of Tathagata and said, “Xuanzang has arrived in Leiyin County and met Venerable Lingji, and the debate has begun!”

   As soon as these words came out, all the Buddhas present were in an uproar.

   “The debate has begun, what’s going on?”

   “Lingji wants to argue with Xuanzang before he arrives at Lingshan?”

   “This Lingji is too reckless, why didn’t you discuss it with me before going?”

   Amidst the commotion, the Tathagata just sat quietly on the lotus pedestal, closed his eyes, and smiled faintly.

   “If you say reckless, I’m afraid not necessarily.” It was Manjushri who said this.

  Suddenly, all eyes focused on Manjushri.

   He heard him sigh softly: “Xuanzang has not been proven, so I’m afraid that I will definitely lose in the debate with Lingji at this time.”

   Hearing the words, everyone turned to look at Ksitigarbha King and Zhengfa Ming Tathagata.

   After a moment of silence, both of them nodded in agreement with Manjusri’s statement.

   In the crowd, someone sighed softly: “If you say that, this is a killer move. That Xuanzang is more fortunate than fortune.”

   At this time, another monk entered the temple.

  The Buddhas thought there was news, and they all looked over at once. However, he saw the monk walking to King Ksitigarbha with small steps, and said softly, “Venerable Ksitigarbha, the person has already been delivered.”

   “Okay. You go down.”

After    simple words, the monk withdrew from the hall.

   For a time, all the Buddhas were unknown.

  …

   At this moment, in the “Little Leiyin Temple”, Xuanzang and Lingji were still facing each other.

   One side is fighting with each other. On the other hand, his expression remained the same.

After a long time, Lingji slowly let go of the hand that was on the floor, leaned back slightly, and sneered: “I think back then, when Senior Brother Jin Chanzi heard the news first, Lingji saw you. It is inevitable that you will need to be honored. Say ‘Senior Brother’. Lingshan argues the law. Lingji has never been able to argue with you. Could it be that today, you are afraid?”

   “Afraid?” Xuanzang smiled lightly and asked, “What is Xuanzang afraid of?”

   “Fear of losing!”

   “Is Xuanzang afraid of losing?”

   “It’s not that I’m afraid, so why shouldn’t we fight!” Lingji’s voice suddenly rose an octave.

   Hearing this, Xuanzang just sighed lightly and said softly, “Xuanzang is only afraid of one thing in this life and this life.”

   “What’s the matter?”

   “I’m afraid that I won’t be able to cross sentient beings.” He supported his knees. Xuanzang stood up slowly: “If Venerable Lingji wants to argue with Xuanzang, he just needs to wait in Lingshan, and there is no need to do anything more.”

   After saying that, he turned to leave.

   Seeing this, Lingji hurriedly shouted, “Stop!”

   With this shout, Xuanzang stopped and turned his back to Lingji.

   For a moment, the hall was silent again. The two stood motionless.

   For a long time, Lingji gritted his teeth and said, “There is no rain in Fengxian County when there is thunder, so the rain cloud was created by the poor monk’s magic.”

   Xuanzang stood motionless.

  Lingji took a deep breath. Then he said: “The little rain cloud can make the old county king and the rest of the people go wild with joy. The rain cloud is removed, and he is full of sadness. He even comforts himself that it is the test of the Buddha. Hmph… Such a foolish person, Jin Chan Brother Zi, why don’t you cross it?”

   Xuanzang still stood motionless.

   “It was also the poor monk who asked the king to grant the county in his dream, and it was the poor monk who made this wasteland come alive.”

   Xuanzang said nothing.

“Three thousand avenues. Thousands of people have been out of Fengxian County for several years. But they haven’t found a place to live. When they receive gifts, they only know how to be grateful. They don’t know their own blessings and disasters, but it’s just because of a debate. Changes in the past. As long as there is a slight disturbance, it may disappear with the wind. Such a shallow person, Senior Brother Jin Chanzi, why can’t he pass?”

   Xuanzang remained silent.

   “You think what they need is water, but water can’t save them at all! Their cowardice and ignorance are innate, even if they have water, they are just lingering on!”

Taking a deep breath, Lingji said again: “Pudu, you should join the WTO. This temple was built here based on this concept. It’s a pity. Hehe, a good temple, people come and go, just Just like this cup of clear tea. Even if the tea from Lingshan is soaked in this mundane water, it will lose its original meaning. The temples that people come and go can’t be empty by themselves, how can they pass people? What Buddhism?”

   After saying that, he leaned back slightly, looked at Xuanzang’s back and smiled.

After a while, Xuanzang turned around slowly, bowed respectfully, and said, “In the eyes of Venerable Lingji, Buddhism is the tea of ​​Lingshan. People in the world are the water of this world. Good tea of ​​Lingji, Paired with worldly water, wasted.”

“Is not it?”

   “Not in the eyes of poor monks.”

“what is that?”

“In the eyes of the poor monk, the tea of ​​Lingshan is empty. The water of the mundane world is empty. The Buddhadharma is empty. Even the poor monk himself is empty. In this world, only living beings are true, and only in the mouth of Venerable Lingji. The worldly people!”

   Hearing this, Lingji was stunned.

   A faint smile appeared on Xuanzang’s face.

   Before Lingji could react, he flicked his sleeves, turned and walked away. The monkey resting on Xuanzang’s shoulder almost didn’t laugh out loud.

In the    hall, only Lingji was left sitting dumbfounded, with round eyes.

Seeing Xuanzang leave, the tall and thin monk hurriedly walked in from the door and said in a panic, “Your Excellency, this Xuanzang is simply arguing. real!”

   “Shut up.”

   “He must be afraid of losing, so he brought out so many plausible things, obviously to avoid war! Venerable, you…”

   “Shut up!”

   Being yelled at by Lingji, the tall and thin monk quickly closed his mouth and did not dare to make a sound.

   Staring at the direction where Xuanzang left, Lingji gritted his teeth and said to himself: “It is up to you to fight or not to fight!” (To be continued~^~)
