Wild boar

Chapter 720 Getting Started
Zen Master Miaoling and his party of four visited the Xiaoleiyin Temple under the leadership of a young novice monk.

After a moment.

The four of them came to a small square.

This small square has a bluestone floor and is surrounded by green plum trees. There is a statue of Skanda Buddha in the center of the square.

The Veda Buddha held a golden whip, which hung down to the ground.

This means that the number of monks in Leiyin Mountain is full and no more people will be recruited.

"Exactly this place." Zen Master Bicheng nodded solemnly and said.

Zen Master Miao Ling looked around and saw that the three of them were not the only ones here. There were at least twenty more walking monks waiting, including even three second-level monks who had opened the Heavenly Door.

Zen Master Miao Ling frowned and said with a surprised look on his face: "Leiyin Mountain has not taken in any disciples for nine years. Why are they still waiting here?"

"There are always people who want to try their luck, just like you." The young novice monk from Xiaoleiyin Temple said with a smile on his face.

The little novice monk just finished speaking.

A ray of light flew into the square. It was a middle-aged monk with a golden elixir level of cultivation. After scanning the square, he set his sights here. Bicheng, who appeared to have the highest cultivation level. On the Zen Master.

"May I ask which Buddhist temple this master comes from?" the middle-aged Buddhist cultivator asked with a smile on his face.

"The poor monk comes from Fahuan Temple." Zen Master Bicheng said with a smile on his face.

"But you're here to place an order?"

"No, this poor monk won't stay overnight and will leave immediately."

"Oh..." The middle-aged Buddhist cultivator nodded with a smile on his face, and then pointed his finger at the statue of Wei Tuo Buddha.

The statue of Veda Buddha actually moved and placed the golden whip in his hands.

"Buddha is destined to be worshiped, and it is convenient to exercise his power. This temple currently has three places to register." The middle-aged Buddhist monk said loudly.

"Three?"

"So I have a chance!"

"Great, it's really the right time to come here to try your luck after opening the Tianhe." A strong man with a beard said loudly.

"Cough cough cough..." The middle-aged Buddhist cultivator coughed, interrupting everyone's excitement.

"World Honored One Moko... our sect will only accept female lay disciples this time." The middle-aged Buddhist monk announced the name of the Buddha.

"This is really unreasonable. Why do we only accept female lay Buddhists? Is it a predestined relationship for Buddha's salvation and equality of all living beings? Is it just a slogan?" A man with a beard shouted loudly.

"Yes, Lei Yun Yin Shan is not such a bully."

"I have been waiting here for two days and two nights. The rule of placing orders is always first come, first served."

Seeing the crowd making noises, the middle-aged Buddhist cultivator said with a sneer: "It's really unlucky for you, there are only three vacant beds in Lianxin Temple in our sect. Lianxin Buddha is a woman. It would be inconvenient to recruit men. Therefore, only female lay practitioners will be accepted this time, and no male lay practitioners will be retained."

"Three female masters, please come with the poor monk." The middle-aged Buddhist cultivator turned his head and said with a smile.

I saw the middle-aged Buddhist cultivator flicking his sleeves and shrouding Zen Master Miaoling, Devashina, Qimag and a harmless little suckling pig with his spiritual light, turning them into a colorful Buddha light and leaving.

But the statue of Wei Tuo, which signifies that Leiyin Mountain still needs to recruit monks, remains the same...

……

Thunder Mountain.

Zhi Ke Tang.

A scholar in his thirties read three Buddhist books in his hand.

"Which one of you is the wonderful spirit?" Zhike asked, looking at the Buddhist book.

"I am," said Mahakala Puja.

"Who is Miaojing?"

"It's me." Princess Devashina said with a smile.

"Who is Miaoyu?"

"Master Zhike, it's me." Qimage said with a sweet smile.

Zhike looked at the three female disciples, and then turned his attention to the pig held in Zen Master Miaoling's arms. "Will this monster be put into the spirit beast garden?" Zhike asked.

"I need to take this spiritual beast with me," Zen Master Miaoling said.

"That's okay...but you have to take good care of this spiritual beast and don't disturb others' peace. Otherwise, we will drive you and your spiritual beast away from the mountain gate." Zhike said with a serious face.

"I understand." Zen Master Miao Ling nodded and said.

After Zhike finished speaking, he took up his pen and wrote on the three wooden plaques.

While writing, he said: "If you register here, the Buddhist books will be temporarily retained by Zhi Ke Tang."

"I'll tell you again the rules for placing orders..."

"This temple is the Holy Land of the Three Jewels. You need to practice virtue and abide by the rules. If you disturb other people for no reason, you will be expelled from the sect immediately."

"Although you are independent disciples, all the training requirements must be the same as those of our sect. You need to do morning classes, midday classes, and evening classes, and you must not miss a single step..."

"You need to visit Buddha and worship on time, and practice the divine way on time. You must not be lazy and negligent."

"The whip of the Wei Tuo statue in Xiaoleiyin Temple has not been put down yet, which means that you have not passed the test of this sect..."

"The test time for our sect to recruit pending disciples is usually one year. During one year, you need to diligently cultivate your merits and practice the exercises. The merits and attendance must be fully fulfilled and you must not be absent. To practice the exercises, you must enter the second level. , don't slack off at all, otherwise you will be driven away from the mountain gate."

"After one year of standing orders, if you pass the upper-level examination, you can enter this sect and become my official disciple at Leiyin Mountain."

After Zhike spoke for a moment, he handed the three written wooden plaques in his hand to the little novice monk next to him.

The young novice monk hung the three red lacquered wooden plaques on the famous wall of Lianxin Temple.

"May I ask Mr. Zhike, what are the standards for upper-class examinations?" Zen Master Miaoling asked.

"Of course, within one year, I will complete all the merit cultivation courses, and in addition, I will practice the "Xindala Sutra" to the second level and practice the Heart of the Great Compassion Palm." Zhike said.

"Xindala Sutra" is a physical training method. Puya, Princess Devashina and Qimag have already practiced it at Fahuan Temple, but they have not yet started.

The practice of "Xindala Sutra" is divided into nine levels. If you can practice it to the ninth level, you can practice it to the ninth level. However, Puya, Princess Devashina and Qimag only came into contact with the first three levels in Fahuan Temple. Layers of skills.

"Thank you Zhike for informing me," Zen Master Miaoling said.

"Miao Ling, Miao Jing, Miao Yu... you three female lay disciples can now go to Lian Xin Temple to find Master Jingxin. She will arrange dormitories and homework for you tomorrow." Zhi Ke said.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhike." Zen Master Miaoling expressed his gratitude again.

Follow the little novice's lead.

Miao Ling, Miao Jing and Miao Yu headed towards the back mountain.

The majority of Buddhist cultivators in Leiyin Mountain are men, and women are only a minority after all.

The Buddha Tathagata has repeatedly warned those who come after him that the karma of adultery is the first of many karmas and should be treated with extreme caution. Therefore, in Buddhism, men and women live separately and are often far apart.

Neither the cultivation of merit nor the practice of exercises go together.

Unless Miao Ling, Miao Jing and Miao Yu reach the realm of Vajra Master, it is impossible for them to leave the back mountain and go to the main courtyard of the front mountain to meet those male Buddhist cultivators.

Miaoling, Miaojing and Miaoyu followed the little novice monk and hurried on their way.

suddenly.

A young man with a handsome face wearing a white cassock appeared in front of the four of them.

The man swung his sleeves and walked on the bluestone path with meteoric strides.

"Move over." The young novice said in a low voice.

After saying that, the little novice monk took Miaoling, Miaojing and Miaoyu to the side of the bluestone path and did not dare to look up at this person.

This person drifted away and didn't even bother to look at the four low-level disciples.

The little wild boar watched the man leave...

Is it him?

I never expected that I could meet an old friend thousands of miles away.
