I have become an immortal, you want to take me to Buddhism?

Chapter 123

"I've seen fellow Daoist!"

After the three of them entered the Lingxu Temple, they saw that the temple was very busy, taking people's pulses, checking their doctors, and prescribing medicine.Xu Xian said hello to the temple leader and then explained his purpose of coming.The master of Lingxu Temple was named Sun. He had no interest in Xu Xian and his party at first, so he regarded him as a young man visiting Taoism.

There are many people like this in Chang'an City.Although Buddhism is booming, Taoism is still the state religion, so there are still many people in Chang'an who admire Taoism.However, what they are chasing is probably immortality and kneading elixirs, which have little to do with themselves.

Although Sun Guanzhu also practiced Taoism and knew how to make alchemy and calculate calculations, he only practiced it and never used it to have anything to do with wealthy nobles.What he is best at is practicing medicine and saving people.

The main reason why Lingxu Temple is shabby is that they can only rely on the people in the temple to support themselves. There is no state religion, rewards from the court, or offerings from high-ranking officials and nobles. That's why the place is shabby.

Their place is considered a different kind of Taoist gate in Chang'an City.Not cultivating immortality or practicing elixirs, I am just silently doing what a predecessor left behind hundreds of years ago, helping more people cure their illnesses, and implementing some tips for strengthening their bodies. The main thing is to follow nature. Cultivate your mind and nature.

There are so many people in the world, and there are so many ordinary people. Not everyone can live forever, and not everyone can achieve immortality. These people all need help.The three people in front of Xu Xian were obviously not among them, so Guanzhu Sun was not interested.

But after sitting down together and chatting for a while, Guanzhu Sun immediately admired Xu Xian in front of him, because Xu Xian's understanding of medical skills was not inferior to him, and was even much better.Guanzhu Sun didn't know that the young man in front of him came from a world after the completion of traditional Chinese medicine. Although traditional Chinese medicine was weak at that time, it had accumulated more than a thousand years of experience.

It just so happened that Xu Xian knew a lot about this before he traveled through time. It was okay to use it to scare Guanzhu Sun in front of him. After all, these medical theories were all the same. This Xu Xian had already verified it in Qiantang. His Xu Mansion was here. There are also drug stores in Qiantang.

"I didn't expect that although Taoist friend is young, he is very knowledgeable in medicine. I really admire him!"

After chatting for a while, Guanzhu Sun benefited a lot.He wrote down some of the prescriptions and treatments that Xu Xian said, as well as the names of some of the patent medicines that Xu Xian said, and planned to go to the grocery store to have a look.If the effect of the patent medicine is really good, he can naturally suggest some patients with good conditions to take a look.

Lingxu Guan receives too many patients every day. If some diseases can be treated with patent medicines, then they don't have to be so busy and have time to think about more things. At the same time, the situation in the Guan may be better.To be honest, Lingxu Guan has a huge demand for patent medicines.

You know, in many cases, seeing a doctor does not increase their income. Instead, they have to pour in medicinal materials and cook them, which is quite hard.

"The master of the temple is so humble. I have been to many places and met many Taoist friends. I am the only one who admires the master of the temple and Zen Master Congxin."

After listening to Sun Guanzhu's words, Xu Xian replied that he was telling the truth.In Xu Xian's eyes, Buddhism has people who truly worship the Buddha, and Taoism also has people who truly worship the Tao.These are not about building luxurious temples or whether you can make elixirs, but whether you take the common people into consideration.

Whether you are practicing Buddhism or Taoism, it is inseparable from the common people. You need to do good deeds and accumulate merit.Once you have your cultivation and identity, you will separate yourself from the world. No matter the immortals or Buddhas, they are not real immortals or Buddhas.Yu Xuanji can be regarded as a true Taoist, but she is not someone Xu Xian admires. At best, she is admired, which is different from Guanzhu Sun.After all, Yu Xuanji has considerable spiritual attainments at a young age, and she is not someone like me who carries cheats, so her origins are somewhat unusual.Xu Xian is not in a hurry to find out the origin of Yu Xuanji. As long as she doesn't take action against him, he will wait and see first.

The origin of Yu Xuanji is nothing more than the reincarnation of gods, or perhaps the stars descending to earth. According to the mountain god in the ghost city, there have been no real practitioners in the world for hundreds of years.

Yan Chixia is already talented enough, but he has not yet reached the level of a swordsman.If Xu Xian's elixir hadn't pushed him, he might have been stuck at Jialan Temple for the rest of his life.

"Fellow Taoist, I'm sorry. Pindao just followed his master's will and used his master's things to help as many people as possible. He didn't do anything. Many times, Pindao is also powerless."

After being praised by Xu Xian, Guanzhu Sun was also very embarrassed.He didn't feel that he had done anything but try his best to help those in need. If he couldn't help, there was nothing he could do.Although Lingxu Temple has many medicinal materials and good medical skills, not all patients can be saved.For Sun Guanzhu, this was probably his most helpless time.

"Regardless of Buddhism and Taoism, aren't they all practicing according to the teachings of the masters? It's just that some people practice over and over again and still can't escape the world, but some people cultivate their heart, a heart that is directed toward the Tao. The master of the temple not only has superb medical skills, but also has a heart to help the world. The reincarnation of the medical god is nothing more than this."

After looking at Guanzhu Sun, Xu Xian smiled and replied.Then he observed Guanzhu Sun's reaction.He wanted to verify whether what he said was true.And what Guanzhu Sun did was indeed worthy of Xu Xian's evaluation.

After hearing Xu Xian's words, Li Jun next to him looked at Xu Xian in surprise.Because during the time he had been following Xu Xian, he had rarely seen Xu Xian commenting on a person like this.Even his father, Xu Xian, didn't have any deep praise from Xu Xian, and sometimes he just couldn't say it right.

"Ok?"

At this moment, Li Jun looked at the sky in shock and saw a golden light falling from the sky and falling on Guanzhu Sun.For a moment, there were flowers of merit all around Master Sun. Even though they spread to all sides, the entire Lingxu Temple was enveloped in this golden light.Those people who came to seek medical treatment, including Li Jun, felt that the spiritual platform was clear and bright after being illuminated by the golden light, and their bodies were full of vitality, and their original illness was immediately eliminated.

Seeing this scene, Li Jun was shocked!

He really didn't expect that a Taoist temple leader who he didn't like very much would attain Taoism right in front of him!You know, there are not many practitioners in Chang'an City who can reach his level.

Could it be that I am an ordinary person in Xu Xian's eyes, who only thinks that chasing emptiness of immortality and taking elixirs are powerful practices, but does not understand the true meaning of practice?
