Abbot Ruoshan also said with a smile on his face: "Abbot Hui is here to make this temple flourish, so why bother? Everyone, please come in!"

This old monk Changshoumei is the abbot of "Leiyin Temple", and his seniority is a generation higher than Abbot Ruoshan, but both of them are abbots, representing the face of their own temple, so they are equals.

Abbot Laihui nodded slightly, did not say anything more, and led a group of monks from "Leiyin Temple" into the gate. The believers in the square didn't know what was going on. What are they doing? They all backed away.

The first thing Abbot Laihui saw was the place where the relics of Patriarch Yanfan were stored. He immediately left Abbot Ruoshan of "Shaolin" and a group of people, and walked up quickly. The monks of "Leiyin Temple" behind him also followed. Ruoshan The abbot and the others did not stop.

I saw Abbot Laihui and others kneeling respectfully in front of Patriarch Yanfan's relic, chanting something, but it was so low that people couldn't hear what they were saying.

After a long while, Abbot Laihui and others stood up, folded their palms together and bowed to Abbot Ruoshan, and said, "Amitabha, thank you Abbot Ruoshan, the poor monk is able to see the true face of the patriarch."

Abbot Ruoshan returned a salute and said, "Amitabha, Abbot Hui is very polite. If Abbot Hui wants to meet Patriarch Yanfan, he can come to Shaolin anytime, and the poor monk will sweep the couch to welcome him."

Abbot Laihui nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "It would be a great thing if I could see the patriarch every day, but the poor monk is old and inconvenient to travel long distances. It could not be better."

Abbot Ruoshan shook his head slightly and said, "I'm afraid this is not enough to satisfy Abbot Lai Hui. The relic of Patriarch Yan Fan is the most precious treasure of this temple. How can he leave this temple easily? Of course, if Abbot Lai Hui is willing to live in this temple, poor monks are also welcome." .”

Abbot Laihui chuckled and said: "Abbot Ruoshan is very polite, but although 'Shaolin' is good, it is not a place where poor monks would like to live for a long time. The patriarch's relic is also the treasure of 'Leiyin Temple'. This time the poor monk came, I just want to welcome the patriarch's relics back."

"Abbot Laihui was just joking. Patriarch Yanfan's relics have always been owned by my 'Shaolin'. My 'Shaolin' has always been the authentic Buddhist teaching passed down by Patriarch Yanfan. How can the patriarch's dharma body leave?" Abbot Ruoshan smiled slightly. , said unhurriedly.

Abbot Laihui said: "Abbot Ruoshan's words are wrong. The lineage of 'Leiyin Temple' is also passed down from the patriarch. Naturally, it is also the authentic Buddhism. There is no essential difference from the 'Shaolin'. It is due to welcome the patriarch's relics back. Things."

The two smiled and looked at each other, then Abbot Ruoshan shook his head slightly and said, "It's useless to talk too much, so let's talk about it after arguing."

Abbot Laihui also nodded and said: "The poor monk also has this intention, abbot Ruoshan, please!"

The two talked and reached the front of the square. The monks from "Leiyin Temple" and "Shaolin" were separated behind them, and in front of them were two altars. Then a man in cassock came out from behind the two abbots. The monk came and walked up to the altar without saying a word.

After the two sat down, they greeted each other, and then stopped being polite. They did not want to fight, but began to defend the Dharma, from the 72 Mahayana Dharma books left by Patriarch Yan Fan, to various witty code words, Dharma All the verses were debated, and the monks in the monasteries on both sides were fascinated when they heard it. When it came to the profound things, they all thought hard and thought of ways to debate.

But these words fell into the ears of people who are not monks, and they heard them in a fog, and they didn't know what the two people on the altar were talking about!
Just like Pang Kong and others, Pang Qinglian has always been interested in Buddhism, but most of the time she couldn't understand it, so she was very distressed, just like now, she listened to the two eminent monks' high-spirited talks for a long time, and her head was swollen. , and finally couldn't listen anymore, stomped his foot and said, "Speaking of it this way, we can compete with each other? I think it's better to go up and fight directly!"

There is also a person beside her who thinks the same as her. Hearing this, he nodded and said: "Yes, yes! I don't know anything about Buddhism anyway, and I can't figure out Abbot Ruoshan. They are all here to snatch your orthodox position. You have entered the land of eternal doom, and you can still greet you with a smile! This mentality is too good! If I would have beaten the other party out of the way! And now, two people talk about it, I see who will be the end You can't win anyone, and you still have to compete with each other, so what's the use of talking about it?"

But Pang Kong shook his head and said: "'Leiyin Temple' is also a group of monks, how could it be possible to shout and kill? Besides, it is not impossible to distinguish the superior from the Buddhist scriptures debate. The reason why it cannot be distinguished is that That can only show that the two people's understanding and understanding of Buddhism are evenly matched, so neither can convince the other, and as for the final fist fight, it is a last resort."

Regarding Pang Kong's words, the person before him seemed a little dismissive, but he didn't say anything to refute. After all, he also understood that what Pang Kong said was still reasonable.

But now, it is clear that the monks of "Leiyin Temple" are on par with the monks of "Shaolin" in the study of Buddhism, so this debate lasted from noon to night, and no one could convince anyone. People, the two of them are still not satisfied, they don't seem to be having fun, and they seem to be sympathetic to each other, and they look at each other with admiration.

So both monasteries made a decision, and the debate will continue tomorrow!

The night passed like this, and the debate continued the next day, but the result was still the same. The two eminent Buddhist monks still couldn't convince each other. In the end, they could only shake hands and make peace. Best friends like friends!
There was no winner in the debate, so the winner could only be decided by fists and feet. Abbot Laihui clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, the poor monk really didn't want to go to this point, but he didn't expect that your temple would have people in the same way of Buddhism." The poor monk really admires such a powerful monk!"

Abbot Ruoshan also nodded and said: "The eminent monks in your monastery are also very good, but the poor monks also don't want to go to this point, they have more fists and feet, and it's not good for anyone to hurt anyone."

Seeing that the two were still in the ink stains, Pang Qinglian couldn't stand it anymore, and muttered: "Will you fight or not! Since you are so close, then don't fight at all. It doesn't matter if both of them are Buddhist orthodox!"

Pang Kong quickly glared at his daughter, telling her to stop saying a few words. Can this kind of thing be fooled?Fortunately, they were a little far away from the two abbots and the monks. The other party probably didn't hear this, or they might have to talk to this little girl.

Seeing that her father was angry, Pang Qinglian knew she had said something wrong, but she was not worried, she stuck out her tongue, made a grimace, and hid behind her mother.

Pang Kong shook his head helplessly. He had nothing to do with this daughter because his wife was spoiled!

Someone next to him said: "The orthodox position of Buddhism cannot be given away casually. For example, the reason why 'Shaolin' can attract so many believers to watch the Dharma Conference held on the birthday of Patriarch Yan Fan is that so many People come to offer incense and give incense money, it is precisely because 'Shaolin' is orthodox Buddhism, and 'Leiyin Temple' is also handed down by Patriarch Yanfan, but it is because it is not orthodox Buddhism, so even if the Dharma meeting is held, The effect is far inferior to that of 'Shaolin'."

"This is not only a matter of reputation, but also involves a lot of interests, such as status in the world, even in the court, and many other things. It is not something that can be resolved by saying that both sides are orthodox. Ah! So even if you are a monk, you cannot be exempt from this, because this is not only related to the affairs of their monastery, but also to many people and many forces."

What this person said obviously meant something. For example, the people who came to "Shaolin" to help boxing this time, apart from those invited by Abbot Ruoshan or other monks of "Shaolin" like Pang Kong, there were also some Those who come spontaneously, they not only represent themselves, but also represent the people behind them, including the strength in the world, and the strength in the court.

Among other things, for example, Zhao Wufeng, the former Prince Rong, has always had a good relationship with "Shaolin". Therefore, in the face of the challenge of "Leiyin Temple", Prince Rong will definitely come to help!
It's a pity that because of the "Human World" killer organization that happened before, all of Prince Rong's family were arrested, and they were almost ransacked!Even if he was not beheaded in the end, Prince Rong himself is now in prison, so naturally he cannot help "Shaolin".

When they first heard about Prince Rong's accident, "Shaolin" should of course offer a helping hand, but that incident was Prince Rong's fault after all, even if "Shaolin" wanted to help, they couldn't find a way!So much so that when facing "Leiyin Temple" now, "Shaolin" has lost a help invisibly.

It is precisely because of this that many people and many forces have seen that "Leiyin Temple" has continued to grow and develop in recent years, and its momentum has a tendency to surpass "Shaolin". With the emergence of this dispute over Buddhist orthodoxy, and now that "Shaolin" lacks the support of Prince Rong, many people are not optimistic about "Shaolin" and are more optimistic about "Leiyin Temple". The current situation is that "Leiyin Temple" should have a certain advantage!

And following this person's introduction, it seems that to match his statement, at this time, many people from the world came from outside the gate of "Shaolin". After Pang Kong saw these people, he couldn't help frowning slightly, His complexion became a little ugly, obviously these people came to help "Leiyin Temple".
