Chapter 720 Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet

Xuanzang was sitting in the Pingfeng Pavilion of Qingfengguan, looking at the big tree rattling and asking the old man opposite: "Is this the wind of hundreds of miles?"

Li Chunfeng smiled and shook his whisk and said, "Ten miles."

Xuanzang said again: "How do you know that this kind of wind can travel ten miles a day? What if someone only travels eight miles?"

Li Chunfeng said: "How do you know that after you die, you will definitely be able to see Buddha instead of Sanqing?"

Xuanzang said with a smile: "The monks belong to the monks, and the Taoists belong to the Taoists."

Li Chunfeng said: "Now I can't tell the difference, the monk's will belong to the monk, and the Taoist's will belong to the monk."

Xuanzang said again: "During times of troubled times, Taoist priests go out of the mountains to travel the world, seeking a ray of life for the people in troubled times. When the prosperous times come, Taoist priests hide in the mountains and forests, drink clear springs, and those who read Huangting are not seen by others. This is not a preaching way."

Li Chunfeng laughed and said: "You monk, you sent the monks from the north to the Western Regions, and you brought the monks from the south to the north. Now, you still feel that it is not enough, and you have brought your idea to my Taoist school?"

Xuanzang said again: "Faxiang Weishi School monopolizes the Buddhist kingdoms in the Western Regions, don't you, an old Taoist, feel the decline of Taoism?"

Li Chunfeng laughed loudly and said: "If your Buddhism continues to prosper like this, there will be no one who truly cultivates Buddhism. Your Dharma and Consciousness-Only Sect is nothing more than that. You still need a little wisdom and luck, like those who just put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately after chanting." Are those who can become Buddhas worried that there are too many people in hell?"

Xuanzang said with a smile: "A virgin under my seat said that the so-called preaching is to make our people more numerous. The poor monk thinks so."

Li Chunfeng smiled and said: "Isn't she just a tired girl from a different race, she became your disciple by chance, what's there to show off."

Xuanzang said: "Buddhism is flourishing in the Western Regions, don't fellow Taoists be happy for Buddhism?"

Li Chunfeng said: "The calculation is still in vain, Xuanzang, I heard that you have a glimpse of the secret, why don't you take it out and let us participate in the research together?"

Xuanzang clasped his hands together and said: "There is a giant baby in the Western Regions, ten feet long, three feet high, red all over, iron birds flying in the sky, iron dragons winding underground, black giant mirrors in the desert, and giant windmills... It's not like the world. realm."

Li Chunfeng frowned and said, "Monks don't lie."

Xuanzang clasped his hands together and said, "Monks don't tell lies."

Li Chunfeng shook his head and said: "For decades, a certain family has watched the stars every new moon, and the star map has not changed."

Xuanzang said: "The sun has no moon, you don't even look at such a huge moon, do you want to see the movement of heaven from those dim and uncertain stars?

This is like a blind man feeling an elephant, not knowing why.

Since there is a glimmer of mystery in the Western Regions, why don't fellow Taoists go to the Western Regions to investigate, but why do they always stay in the Central Plains? "

Li Chunfeng looked at Xuanzang and said: "Chang'an is chaotic, unspeakably chaotic, the qi mechanism is chaotic, and the earth veins are rushing. It seems that it is about to be out of control, but suddenly the qi mechanism is smooth and the earth veins are smooth. This is the root that the old Taoists are looking for.

As for the great opportunity you mentioned in the Western Regions, so what if you leave it to Buddhism alone? The more prosperous Buddhism is, the more cruel it will be when the Dharma-ending era comes.

You, Xuanzang, are not ignorant of this truth, but Buddhism is now flourishing like brocade with flowers, and the fire is cooking oil, but you don’t know that these flowers are the lives of your descendants, and this fire is the lifeblood of your future Buddhism.

Once the Dharma-ending era comes, your Buddhism will no longer be able to resist, and destruction is just around the corner, don't you know? "

Xuanzang frowned and said, "If you speak well, you won't listen, will you?"

Li Chunfeng said: "Taoism is natural. Who will go north with you? Ever since Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty dug the Grand Canal, the north and south qi have merged, the south is no longer hot, and the north is no longer bitterly cold. What poor Taoists have to do is go south, not go north.

Your Buddhist school has your Buddhist chance, and my Taoist school also has my Taoist luck, the two are irrelevant. "

Master Xuanzang threw a copper bowl at it... Li Chunfeng fought back with a whisk.

In short, Master Xuanzang knew that he could not persuade Li Chunfeng to go to the Western Regions to seek gold with him, and Li Chunfeng did not know that he could not persuade Master Xuanzang to go fishing in the south.

They are all masters born in the world, so naturally they can only compete with one another in terms of fists and feet.

The Chang'an incident was a catastrophe for both Buddhism and Taoism.

The Daxingshan Temple of Buddhism is only a deficit of the Xiangji Kitchen this time, and it has already emptied the savings of the northern Buddhism for many years.
Because, when Yunchu and Rourou borrowed money from Daxingshan Temple on behalf of the two counties, the price was good. When Yunchu and the others borrowed money from Daxingshan Temple, the price of rice was only twelve yuan. At that time, the price of rice was 120 yuan, but at this time, the Xiangji Kitchen of Daxingshan Temple did not accept copper coins, only materials, so [-] material warehouses in the two counties were evacuated, and the cotton textiles produced by the cotton spinning factories in the two counties for the next six years were emptied. Take it away forcibly at the current price.

Then, Yunchu stabilized the price of grain in one day, and Daxingshan Temple would buy the cotton textiles from the cotton mill for the next six years at a six-fold premium, and gave all the money in advance.

Therefore, if merchants still want to ask Daxingshan Temple to borrow money, they will not be able to borrow half of the money at all, and countless people who put their money in Daxingshan Temple have come to withdraw money.

The Xiangji kitchen in Da Ci'en Temple is relatively better. Before that, the crown prince Li Hong exchanged the copper coins for gold in the name of Naha.

Go to fill Lou Shide's huge farmland.

Before Da Ci'en Temple replenished with copper coins, the disaster in Chang'an broke out, and in this way, Da Ci'en Temple was spared.

It's a pity that although Daxingshan Temple and Daci'en Temple have different Dharma sects, they are still a family of Buddhism. After helping Daxingshan Temple's Xiangji Kitchen with 20 taels of gold, it finally saved the face of Daxingshan Temple's Xiangji Kitchen.

Immediately, a problem arose, the lineage of the Da Ci'en Temple could no longer continue to cultivate the fertile land of Buddhism in the Western Regions.

Therefore, Master Xuanzang wanted to give advice to Li Chunfeng, hoping that the Taoist sect could increase its investment in the Western Regions. The big guy will first make the Western Regions a world like the Central Plains, and then the Buddhist sect will rely on their own methods of preaching, and then a little bit more. Take your heart back.

As a result, Li Chunfeng was not fooled, and he planned to send a large number of Taoist disciples, with Zhang Daoling's lineage in Longhu Mountain as the vanguard, to enter the south first.

"Master Xuanzang couldn't beat Li Chunfeng, his head was smashed by the bowl, and he fell when he wanted to catch Li Chunfeng. Two teeth are not very safe."

The fight between Xuanzang and Li Chunfeng quickly spread throughout Chang'an for some reason, and now after hearing Naha's account of the outcome of their fight, Yunchu was very sure that the news must have come from the Taoist sect.

The fight between immortals did not become a popular story, on the contrary, it scared many people to tears.

Because nothing is right in Chang'an City recently, even the prostitutes in Pingkangfang have been whipped, unable to entertain the public, and the big guys will naturally not be happy.

After finally waiting for the price of food and supplies to drop, everyone is desperately spending money to hoard supplies, for fear of another horrible experience of worthless money.

Nowadays, when it comes to large transactions, everyone is using gold at the risk of breaking the law.

"Master Xuanzang took the initiative to ask me to borrow 6 taels of gold, Li Hong took the initiative to give me back 10 taels of gold, Master Xuanzang gave the borrowed gold to Daxingshan Temple, Daxingshan Temple returned with interest Give me back 8 taels of gold, my gold was left untouched in the warehouse of Da Ci’en Temple, so there was an extra 12 taels.”

Naha held a small abacus and finally figured out her own accounts. The child was still kind-hearted, and did not count the 6 taels of gold borrowed by Master Xuanzang as his own property, but returned Li Hong to him. The 10 taels counted as income...

Therefore, she is actually losing money.

But it was such a muddled account, which made Wu Mei, who was calculating the property of each family, very satisfied, and decided to put Naha's money bank into a separate account instead of accounting with the rest of the accounts.

Anyway, that is a muddled account.

When Yunchu heard that Master Xuanzang was suffering, he specially carried the medicine box and prepared to treat Master Xuanzang's injuries as a doctor of the Tang Dynasty.

I thought that Master Xuanzang would use various excuses to shirk, but unexpectedly, Master Xuanzang received Yunchu naturally with a big green bag on his bald head.

Looking at the big bag, Yunchu felt pain and wanted to talk, but because Master Xuanzang was sitting opposite an extremely sloppy old monk, he knelt quietly to the side, picked out the medicines that were suitable for Xuanzang, and prepared them for Xuanzang. Master Zang boiled a pot of good soup for pain relief and blood stasis.

"The master has practiced for many years, and he must have gained something. I don't know that the master came from the original way, so what can he teach Xuanzang?"

The old monk in black robe took out something from his wide sleeve, held it up in front of Xuanzang and asked, "What is this?"

Master Xuanzang watched intently for a long time before he asked in doubt, "Dog poop?"

The old monk in black said: "A monk has a Buddha in his heart, and he sees everything as a Buddha, but you only have dog shit prongs in your chest, so everything you look at is a dog shit prong."

Just when Yunchu thought that Master Xuanzang, whose temper was getting worse and worse, would hit the black-clothed old monk's bald head with the bowl at hand, he found that Master Xuanzang said in surprise: "The letter covers the universe and cuts off the flow of people. , you want to find another way?"

The old monk in black said proudly: "The northern Buddha has already gone to the Western Regions, so the old monk has to go to the south to find the door of all wonders."

While speaking, he took out a black and dirty iron bowl from his arms and put it in front of Xuanzang. Xuanzang sighed, and put a string of Buddhist beads polished from Hetian jade seeds that Naha gave him on the black clothes. In the bowl of the old monk.

The black-clothed old monk didn't even say a word of thanks, as if Xuanzang should have done so, he got up and left the Buddhist hall, and when he reached the door, he held on to the door frame and looked at Xuanzang, saying, "Poor, poor."

After all, he stepped on a pair of broken straw sandals with a stench of body odor, and walked away in such a big way.

Seeing that Master Xuanzang was deep in thought, Yun Chu said in a low voice when Master Xuanzang suddenly realized, "Master is not good at martial arts, so if there is such a thing, I will leave it to my disciples."

Master Xuanzang looked at Yunchu with eyes like looking at dog shit and said: "The poor monk has a Buddha in his heart. The poor monk has no doubt about it. The black-clothed monk said that I only have dog shit prongs in my heart, that is to say, in his heart, Buddha is a shit prong.

Where did my Buddha come from?I came to enlightenment after reciting countless Buddhist scriptures. Since he said that my Buddha is a shit peg, it means that he thinks that my Buddha practice is wrong. If my Buddha practice is wrong, it means that all Buddhist schools in the north Cultivating the wrong Buddha... He made a big wish, willing to rearrange Buddhist theories.

Amitabha Buddha is truly a supreme virtue. "

Yunchu looked at Xuanzang suspiciously and said, "What if he is talking nonsense?"

Xuanzang looked into Yunchu's eyes and said, "Do you think an eminent monk who has attained the Tao came all the way from the Yunmen Mountain and the Mercy Peak in Lingnan just to talk nonsense in front of the old monk?"

Under Xuanzang's fierce gaze, Yunchu had to lower his head, admitting that he was treating the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

It’s just that I was very unconvinced. The string of white jade Buddhist beads carved from the best seed material that Master Xuanzang threw into the dirty bowl of the black-clothed old monk was enough to make a dozen black-clothed old monks come to Chang’an from Lingnan to fool him. of.
