Beginning as a Tantric Academy Monk

Chapter 487 Ready
The monk went out generously without worrying about these monks killing him in the back. These monks would not be so mean. Seeing this, the other monks came forward one by one. Some picked it up, but some could not lift it.

When he got to Lu Feng, he took a look at the "scripture". It looked normal, but it was a "long book" commonly seen in temples. Just from the packaging, there was nothing strange about it. Lu Feng easily picked up the "long book" and put it down.

The vinaya monk wearing a yellow hat waved to Lu Feng to the side.

During this period, no one was cheating or trying to be clever. In the end, only seven or eight people were unable to lift the "long book" and they were all let go. The whole process was smooth and fast.

With the end of this first wave of screening.

The monks who stayed behind retreated back to that place on their own. The whole process was silent, no one made any noisy noise, and they all stood aside, quietly waiting for the next move.

As the last monk picked up the "long book", the "Big Buddha in the Usha Hat" sitting at the top tapped the Dharma bowl, making a crisp and heavy sound. A "Pandita Master" stood up and read some words in a loud voice, asking everyone to sit down. Someone took a bigger Dharma bowl, made of purple copper, with the image of lotus treasure all over the outside.

This is the second test.

A big Buddha held this object in his hand and asked the monks to come and see it one by one. When the monks went to see this object, he would say something to stop them from speaking. No one could hear it except the people in front of him.

No one else would want to listen to what this Buddha said.

But he saw him walking over one by one, asking people to lean over to look at the Dharma bowl. Such a simple action seemed even easier than the previous one. However, in this short period of time, Lu Feng saw three or two more monks. After seeing the scene inside the "Dharma Bowl", blue and black auras appeared on their faces. When he looked again, they had turned into "white bones"!
There was not even a bit of skin or flesh on his body.

Clean white bones.

Collapsed to the ground with a loud bang!
The big Buddha was not surprised at all. He walked by the corpses as usual. Behind him, monks came forward and took their skulls and leg bones, which they should use as ritual tools and materials. The rest of the body parts were left there. The monks around turned a blind eye to the death of the people around them, even Lu Feng.

These are all inevitable things.

Don’t let the things of the present moment disturb your present mind.

Generally speaking, everything that happened today was considered peaceful. These masters rarely treated them as human beings. Perhaps this was the good thing about the "obsession demon"! For the survival of the temple, the masters and Buddhas all became kinder. Even those who died had "a reason for their death."
This happened again and again, and the great master came to Lu Feng with a purple gold bowl.

The monks who were collecting the bones also followed the great master. The great master said to Lu Feng kindly, "Look here, but you don't need to tell me what you see.

There is naturally your fate in this.

Well, stick your head over there and take a look inside!"

Lu Feng nodded slowly and looked into the bowl calmly.

At a glance, it was Lu Feng. Although he had a blank expression on his face, his heart was in turmoil!
What kind of treasure is this? How can it have such wonderful uses?

You can actually see such a thing at a glance!

But he had seen it and knew it, but even if the master had not said the words he had been told before, he would not reveal it at all.

Before he looked at it, he thought about what he would see on it.

But he never expected that he would meet an old man who was not that old.

The clothes he wore were so natural that if he were thrown into the street, Lu Feng might not even look at him. However, this was in the "Secret Realm", in the "bowl" of the Master. Seeing this scene in such a place, Lu Feng even restrained his mind and did not want to have the delusion of "taking one more look"!

Watching the master taking the purple gold bowl away, Lu Feng suppressed all his delusions in his heart, not allowing them to appear at all, nor disrupting them.

Now is the time for testing. If you have other thoughts in your mind, you won’t know when you will die.

The great master saw that "Yong Zhen" had turned into white bones and then walked away.

After a few more monks passed away, the "Usha Hat Big Buddha" who was sitting at the top struck the Dharma bowl again, asking the great master to put away what he was holding. Only then did the remaining people sit down.

After going through all this, Lu Feng took a look and found that there were really not many people left here.

Everybody sat down facing each other, but this time, it was not "Pandita Master" who spoke and informed everyone, but "Big Buddha in Usha Hat" who spoke himself. After going through these three or four times, the real debate had just begun!
"The current question gives you some time to think about it."

After hearing what the great master said, Lu Feng immediately suppressed everything he was thinking and listened carefully to the words of the "Great Buddha" above.

This time, the examination was not restricted to any particular major treatise.

It is a collection of eleven major treatises covering teaching.

There are also many "commentaries" written by the gurus and bodhisattvas of this school, and the gurus and bodhisattvas of other school can all be debated.

There's no need to worry about saying it out loud, no one will know if it's nonsense or not.

Firstly, we have all studied Buddhism for so many years, and we can all tell whether it is nonsense or not!
The second is that the pandita guru next to him knew it in his heart.

If you make up a story at this time, there is no need for your opponent to exert any strength, because "Pandita Guru" will directly raise his "Vajra Axe" and chop off his head in one go, putting an end to it once and for all.

As for this "debate", it is still a debate between two people, but the topic is from "Nature, non-nature, etc., all kinds of nature-fixed views. Saying this color is only a name, the truth has no self-nature. The self-nature is differentiated, and it should be stopped when it is accepted. Color and color self-nature are empty as mentioned before. The self-nature is both, and the differentiation is stopped. It is neither born nor destroyed, etc. All the views of the dharma."

It comes from "The Essentials of the Complete Collection of Prajnaparamita by the Mother of Buddha".

It is to distinguish one's own nature here, and to expand it and let it come out from the mind!

This is a topic that seems to be a big topic, but in fact, there is little room for maneuver. It is all "making a fuss in a snail shell", but the monks present are not afraid. Although they are studying the "Five Great Treatises", even if it is expanded to the "Eleven Great Treatises", it is nothing.

Everyone has come this far, none of them are weak, they are all man-eating wolves, and now it's just a pack of wolves fighting for meat, how can we be afraid? If we lose courage first, then we will definitely lose the initiative before we even have to debate!
As for how to choose an opponent for "debate", it is also very simple.

Someone took out a bamboo token and blew on it, so that it fell into the hands of everyone. On it, there would naturally be someone else's Dharma name. Once you find someone, you can debate with them.

In every place, there is a "Pandita Master" "watching eagerly"!
Lu Feng took a quick look and knew that this debate would only have two rounds at most, so the number would be about the same.

Six Buddhist disciples should be left behind. If they do not leave all at once, the "obsessive demons" of the "Lotus Qin Zao Fa Temple" will not be able to take out so many people.

However, although the process seems simple and the outcome is determined in just one round, if you really think about it, this time is already dangerous enough.

The fact that these people were chosen by the "Lotus Qin Zaofa Temple" cannot be explained by just being simple monks.

Among them are the Buddha of the folk lineage and the officially canonized "Hutuktu" reincarnated Buddha. It can even be said that everyone here may be a Buddha!
Each one of them can be regarded as a strong rival.

"Lotus Qin Zao Fa Temple" is here, choosing the best among the best!

I just don’t know that the “Lion Vajra Protector Venerable” gave me the “initiation” and regarded me as his “Vajra Master” - the one who can give initiation to others is called the “Vajra Master”.

This is the same as calling those who protect the Dharma "Vajra Protectors".

Titles such as "King Kong" and "Big" should generally not be used indiscriminately.

I just don't know if there are other "Vajra Masters" to give these people "initiation". While Lu Feng was thinking, he reached out and grabbed the bamboo chips that floated in front of him.

There was a name written on it, but it was not any name that he was familiar with.

This should be someone from the temple. Lu Feng read out the name of the master, and then saw the master walking towards him and greeting Lu Feng.

The two of them sat opposite each other, and Lu Feng did not come up to question them directly. Instead, they both sat down. Lu Feng asked the other party to start first. The "Pandita Master" had already come in front of them. Lu Feng did not say that he lost, leaving his brow bone there.

He shouldn't lose.

I won't allow myself to lose.

Just success!

……

Inside the "Zhaju Monastery", there were also several people sitting in the "bedroom" of the "Dharma King" at this time.

The kind, fat elder of disciplines was now sitting at the lower position, with a bronze brazier in front of him.

He threw some herbs into the brazier, filling the whole room with a strange smell.

The smoke came out, but it turned into all kinds of strange things in this "palace".

The smell is too "strong" to the point where it's hard to tell the difference between the fragrance and the stench.

It was in this atmosphere that the Dharma King of "Zhaju Ben Temple" sat at the top, and next to him was "Elder Cangbing" who never took off his silver seal.

The three of them sat here, on the blanket on the ground.

Naturally, there was a list in their hands. "Elder Cang Bing" slowly flipped through the list in his hand and looked at the words on it.

The “Dalai Lama” looked drowsy. Although he was sitting at the top, he still nodded his head up and down from time to time.

This is a nap.

But the people present, whether it was the "Discipline Elder", the "Cangbing Elder", the housekeeper standing behind the "Dharma King", or the other monks in the "official residence", all stood still.

Let the "Dalai Lama" take a nap there.

After a while, the "Dharma King" suddenly shivered, and sweat covered his head, as if he had woken up! When he woke up, a look of pain and confusion appeared on his face. The monks present were not surprised by what was happening.

Seeing the Dharma King wake up, the steward monk immediately took out the finest silk and gently wiped the sweat from the Dharma King's head.

Then he walked to the brazier and threw the sweat towel into the brazier and burned it.

During this period, no one spoke until the "Dalai Lama" took the tea at hand, rinsed his mouth gently, and then spit it on the ground. Only then did everyone come back to life.

However, from the many things that have just happened, it can be seen that the "Dharma King" at this moment no longer looks like an enlightened monk.
It's completely different from how he looked when Lu Feng saw him on the street.

He is like an old man who is very old.

But the rest of the people present did not dare to underestimate this "King of Dharma".

The Dharma King looked outside and said with difficulty: "I heard the birds outside reporting auspicious sounds.

This must be the Bodhisattva's messenger.

Go out and feed these birds some rice and flour, don't let them starve to death.

Don't drive them away, tell them to stop here.

This is a sign that the Bodhisattva likes the temple.

Good luck. "

Immediately, a monk went out with rice and flour.

The “Dalai Lama” looked at the monk who walked out, and there was something “muddy” in his eyes.

He took out from his arms something that no one had ever seen or thought of!

Gold pocket watch.

Tick-tick! The pocket watch made no sound in his arms, but when he held it in his hand, it made a sound.

He opened it, took a look at it with great effort, and then said slowly: "The time is almost up, and the big demons over there should have already selected pack horses. Have you asked people to prepare them?"

The “Dalai Lama” did not mention his Dharma title, his name, or his position, but everyone present knew who he was talking about.

The fat "Discipline Elder" immediately said, "Yes, yes, we have already made preparations. Even if they come out, we will immediately expel them from the temple and have no connection with the temple, and we have already cut off some cause and effect."

The Dharma King said, "What about the 'grand hall' that was built?"

“It has taken shape.”

The Discipline Elder continued.

"That's good, that's good."

The Dharma King said this and then continued, "You will be in charge of the affairs at the 'Great Lotus Seat'. If there is anything, you don't need to ask me.

I don't want to know either, but as for the caravan, no one from the last caravan came back.

So we looked for some more opportunities and sent another team out - no matter what, we couldn't let this route be cut off."

This time it was "Elder Cang Bing" who responded.

After saying this, the "King of France" took back the pocket watch in his arms with great effort, and then said: "In this case, now that we have talked, I have something else to do, you can leave first!"

Elder Cang Bing and Elder Jie Lu both walked out of the "Dharma King's" bedroom. They didn't even look at each other and left the place together.

Each doing his own thing.

It seems unfamiliar!
