That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 1076

The abbot's room fell into silence. After a long time, Qiuyue said slowly, "It's just a thin line."

Xu Beiyou asked curiously: "Since there is only a thin line between them, why did Master Abbot take this step so long ago?"

Qiuyue slightly narrowed her handsome eyes, seemed to be in deep thought, and said softly after a long silence: "There is a thin line between life and death, between yin and yang, between good and evil, between right and wrong." There is still a thin line between the world, and even the sky and the earth are actually separated by a thin line, and this line is the human world."

Xu Beiyou was slightly stunned, and said slowly: "How high is the sky. How thick is the earth? How vast is the world. Such a line seems too big."

Qiuyue sighed softly: "What Sect Master Xu said is that the old monk is now stranded in the human world. This line, it is said to be very big, but it is said to be very small, but it makes the old monk unable to enter or retreat. It is a dilemma. To be honest Sovereign Xu, I have already reached this point ten years ago. It was true ten years ago, but it will still be the same ten years later. He came to this step earlier than the old monk, but when he wanted to cross this line, he was misled by Xuan Yin, so that he was delayed until today. Fortunately, Sect Master Xu was born, and he saw a turning point. It is because of the lessons learned from the past that I have not taken this step for a long time."

Xu Beiyou asked: "In terms of aptitude, Qiuye and Wanyan Beiyue should only be on the same level, but why can Qiuye set foot on the eighteenth floor?"

Qiuyue said: "Actually, the reason is very simple, because Brother Qiuye is the master of the Taoist sect, the master of the Taoist sect in the world, behind him is the immeasurable financial resources of the Taoist sect, and the great fortune blessing left by the ancestors of the Taoist sect in the past. "

Xu Beiyou said with emotion: "Back then, my master once said to me that during the journey of cultivating the Tao, the most important things are wealth, spouse, law, land, and treasure. Among them, the word "wealth" ranks at the top. Today, I heard what Master Abbot said. Don't lie to me."

Hearing this, Qiuyue couldn't help smiling, and said: "This is the end of the matter, the old man explained to Sect Master Xu that the Daoist sect implemented a thousand-year-old plan back then, with the fundamental purpose of supporting Xiao Qi to build a country. At that time, there were three key people who made this happen. , they are the real person Zichen, the previous head teacher of the Taoist sect, Tianchen, the peak master of the previous generation, and Qiu Ye, who was the first disciple of the Taoist school at that time. There is a great merit to protect the body, but on this point, the old man can't compare with Brother Qiuye."

Xu Beiyou said slowly: "In fact, Master Abbot also has his own advantages, that is, he has lived in a quiet place of Buddhism for these years, and has never been contaminated by karma in the secular world. On the other hand, Qiu Ye first fought against his master on the Lotus Peak of Biyou Island, and won Damage to Taoism, followed by the battle of Meishan Mingling, where he fought against Emperor Taizu, and his luck was compromised again, and finally the battle of Jundao, where Emperor Taizongwen used the posture of a martial saint to severely damage his body. In other words, he still has the merits of Fulong's founding of the country back then, but now he has no hope of ascension."

After hearing this, Qiuyue slowly suppressed the smile on her face, frowned slightly, but did not refute anything.

Xu Beiyou said softly: "Xu is not talented, if one day he can fight against the real head teacher of Taoism, although he dare not say victory, he is sure that the real head teacher will pay a lot of price, but I don't know that the real head teacher at that time can still Ascension? Master Abbot, what do you think?"

Qiuyue didn't answer directly, but put her hands together and recited "Goodness".

After a moment of silence, Xiao Zhinan brought the topic back to the right track, and said: "Master Abbot previously said that Buddhism can be divided into big and small. place?"

Qiuyue pointed at the couple, and said with a smile, "It's in the hands of Yu Xian and his wife."

Xiao Zhinan said: "Buddha has three treasures, Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha. The Dharma does not depend on external things. In the hands of my husband and wife, I have gold and silver, power, power of life and death, and the common people in the world. Only there is no Dharma taught by the abbot. .”

Qiuyue shook her head and said: "As Her Royal Highness said, Buddhism does not depend on external things, not in scriptures, but in people's hearts. As long as the Dharma exists, the Buddha will exist, and if the Buddha exists, the monk will exist. The Eldest Princess said that she holds the world in her hands. This is the Buddha Dharma that the old monk said."

"The common people are the Dharma." Xiao Zhinan smiled, "Please enlighten me, Master."

Qiuyue said unhurriedly: "There is great chaos today, swords and soldiers are everywhere, and the flames of war are endless, so the people are suffering upside down, and the common people are in distress. Mahayana Buddhism talks about saving people. The old monk thinks that saving people is not just talking about it, but it is applied in the world." In fact, some people say that saving people is sending people to the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss, but the old monk thinks this is a lie. The master of the Molun Temple at that time, the Living Buddha was reincarnated for hundreds of years, and the nine generations of cultivation bases were all added to him, so he could not go to the Western Paradise. In the world of heaven and bliss, how can ordinary mortals go there if they have no merits and virtues and no realm of cultivation? Therefore, saving people should be in the secular world. The common people often say that the Buddha and Bodhisattva who save the suffering can be said to be in one sentence. , the so-called saving people is precisely in the four characters of "rescue suffering and disaster", Her Royal Highness is also a person who learns Buddhism and practices Buddhism, don't you think so?"

Xiao Zhinan nodded and said: "Master Fangzhang's words 'rescue suffering and rescue' can be said to have fulfilled the wishes of the common people in the world. Zhinan also has the desire to save the common people in the world. Weak in strength, even with Nan Gui's help, there is still little hope, and the chaos of swords and wars cannot be quelled, making wolves and fangs rampant in the world, and I am very ashamed."

Qiuyue waved her hands and said, "You can't blame Her Royal Highness for this matter. After all, manpower is sometimes poor. Even the gods in the sky can't do what they want. And this matter can't be done in a hurry. Your Highness, do it more. One point is more beneficial, and it is also for the benefit of the common people.”

Xiao Zhinan clasped his hands together like Qiuyue, "Master Abbot is too famous, Zhinan is ashamed to be worthy of it."

Qiuyue clapped her palms and said: "Princess, don't be overly modest. Earlier, the old man said that if he wanted to put Buddhism into practice, he would put it in the hands of Princess Chang and Sect Master Xu, in order to calm down the chaos in the world and bring the world back to peace. In this way , there will be no more wolves, tigers and leopards running rampant in the world, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment, with immeasurable merit."

Xiao Zhinan understood in his heart, knowing that Qiuyue finally got to the point, but he still asked knowingly: "Master, is he going to help me?"

Qiuyue put her hands together and said: "Amitabha! My Buddha is merciful. In order to save all living beings, I also need to ward off evil spirits and subdue demons. Killing a single husband and saving thousands of people is an act of great mercy. The old monk would like to help His Highness the Eldest Princess to win the world. Peaceful, the Dharma is prosperous, and the luck of the Buddha is prosperous."

Xiao Zhinan knew in her heart that the so-called peace in the world is not true, and the truth is the prosperity of Buddhism and prosperity of Buddhism, so she pretended to be hesitant, and did not answer directly.

The abbot of the Buddhist sect with power over the three northeastern states was not in a hurry, but said unhurriedly: "Princess, I can promise you that within three months, there will be no smoldering swordsmen under the Shanhai city."
