Martial Arts: Immortality Begins from The Deer and the Cauldron

Chapter 1002: Deceiving Tang Monk to Eat Meat
  A few days later, the wind was calm and the sun was shining brightly. The Emperor of Tang personally drove Qin Ran and Xuanzang to the outskirts of Chang'an with his civil and military officials, and gave Xuanzang the title of Tripitaka.

After leaving Chang'an and walking for several days, the two came to a temple called Famen Temple to rest.

Qin Ran and Tang Monk entered Famen Temple. All the monks in the temple were very enthusiastic and offered tea and fast food. Although Tang Sanzang had dry food to satisfy his hunger on the way, it was not as delicious as the fast food and he wolfed it down.

At this time, Tang Sanzang was eating a vegetarian meal when he suddenly smelled an attractive fragrance. Looking back, he saw Qin Ran sitting in front of the Buddha statue, gnawing on a chicken drumstick with a contented look on his face.

The chicken legs were shiny, tender and soft, and looked extremely delicious. Qin Ran used magic to spread the fragrance throughout the palace.

These monks strictly abide by the rules and precepts and have never eaten meat.
  It was lunch time, and everyone was hungry. Smelling this aroma, the gluttons in their stomachs were aroused.

No longer in the mood to eat these bland vegetables, Kieran could not take his eyes off the chicken drumsticks in his hands.

"Amitabha! Good! Good!"

Tang Sanzang Buddha's heart was firm, with a look of sorrow on his face, and he said: "Master Qin, monks should be compassionate. How can you eat meat in front of this Buddha statue?"

"Master Sanzang, don't worry about these details." Qin Ran chuckled and continued to focus on chewing the gull leg.

"Master Qin, although you are not a monk, but you have been enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva, you should also have good thoughts in your heart and not kill at will. Only by doing more good deeds and forming more good karma according to your own strength can you achieve good results."

Tang Sanzang activated his chatterbox attribute and kept talking to Qin Ran about the rules and regulations, the Eight Precepts, Ten Goods and Six Perfections of Buddhism.

Qin Ran decided to discuss Buddhism with Master Tripitaka, "Master Tripitaka, you have been a monk since childhood and practiced Buddhism. You must be very proficient in Buddhism, right?"

Tang Sanzang was stunned. Could it be that Mr. Qin wanted to discuss Buddhism with him? He suddenly felt excited. He wanted to lead people to be good, but unfortunately he never had the chance.
  Today I want to have a good talk with Mr. Qin to make him give up his obsession and join Buddhism.

He has practiced Hinayana Buddhism since he was a child, and he knows some scriptures by heart. Even compared to the abbots of some temples, he is no less willing to give in. It is more than enough to convince Mr. Qin.

"The poor monk has been practicing scriptures for many years, and he still knows something about Buddhism." Tang Monk said with a satisfied look on his face.

"Then I'm not very talented, so I have to ask the master for some advice.

Qin Ran smiled half-heartedly and secretly activated the spell to directly shield the entire Famen Temple.

"Young Master Qin, just ask." Tang Monk suddenly felt impatient. The monks from Famen Temple were here, anxious to show off in front of others.

"I dare to ask Master, does the Buddhist scriptures say that all living beings are equal?"

"Of course I said it." Tang Monk also had some doubts in his heart. Why did Mr. Qin ask these questions?
  "Then is Buddha considered one of all sentient beings?"

"Of course it counts."

"Then why do we believe in Buddha?"

"this…"

Tang Seng was silent for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

The monks at Famen Temple also stood there, thinking hard.

Seeing a group of monks standing there stunned, Qin Ran secretly laughed in his heart and asked again:
  "I dare to ask Master, did the Buddha say that you should put down your butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately?" "Of course he said it."

"Then why bad people only need to let go of their evil thoughts to become Buddhas, while good people need to go through thousands of difficulties and dangers before they can achieve the holy path. Is this what Buddhism calls fairness?"

Tang Seng was stunned again, his mouth squirmed, but he couldn't speak.

"The Buddhist scriptures say you are not allowed to kill. If killing one person can save two people, then should we kill or not?" Qin Ran pressed forward step by step.
  In fact, these principles have flaws, but Qin Ran directly poured magic power into the voice, which directly made everyone in the temple dizzy and unconscious.

"this…"

Tang Monk and the monks in Fahua Hall couldn't help but break out in cold sweat, and there was silence in the entire hall.

All the monks always felt that something was wrong, but what Mr. Qin said was so reasonable that they couldn't think of how to refute it for a while.

Is what we have been insisting on all this time wrong?
  These monks have been cultivating the Buddha's mind for half a lifetime, but they can't help but waver.

Since they are all wrong, why are you still persisting?
  Smelling the aroma emanating from the chicken legs in Kieran's hand, he suddenly felt that the green vegetables and tofu in front of him had no taste at all. Everyone was drooling, staring at the chicken legs, just wanting to take a bite.

Qin Ran naturally noticed that all the monks were shaken. With a wave of his hand, he saw dozens more plates appearing on the table in the main hall, containing braised fish, braised pork, and spicy chicken. , Babao Duck has all kinds of delicacies, fresh color and overflowing aroma. Just one look at it will make people salivate. Qin Ran secretly cast a spell and said with a bewitching smile: "Masters, do you want to try it? How do you taste these dishes?”

At this time, the already tempted monks couldn't help it. Some younger monks, because their Buddha hearts were not firm, tentatively stepped forward, took a chicken leg in their hands, and after taking a small bite, their expressions suddenly changed. As soon as he changed, he picked up the whole plate and started to eat it hungrily.

Amitabha, it smells so delicious!
  I saw someone try it now. The monks who were watching couldn't bear it anymore, and they all walked up. After tasting the taste, their expressions changed drastically, and they scrambled to grab the plates one by one.

"Evil disciple, leave some for your master!"

"Brother, why are your hands so fast?"

"Don't steal my eight-treasure duck!"

There were crowds of people in the main hall. An old monk held a plate, his mouth full of grease, and started to cry loudly while eating meat.

Half of his life has been wasted!
  Another more senior monk, holding a pig's trotter in his hand, burst into tears.

It’s so delicious, why do you have to wait until a poor monk’s teeth fall out before you can appreciate it?
  And Tang Monk had already disappeared. Qin Ran looked around and saw him sitting in the corner. He was afraid of other monks snatching him. He was holding a crispy chicken and gnawing hard. His face was full of oil and he looked shiny. glow.

Qin Ran laughed secretly in his heart, "I, the mighty Golden Immortal, used my magic power to protect you bunch of bald donkeys from eating meat."

But fortunately, the results were good, and Tang Sanzang successfully broke the first commandment. When one day, Tang Sanzang was able to eat, drink, and cook, and he didn't know where to put his face in Buddhism.

At night, the sky outside Famen Temple was already dark, and the moonlight was like water, spreading over the mountains.

All the plates on the table in the main hall were empty, as if they had just been washed. Each of these monks had a round belly and a shiny face.

At this time, the two following waiters returned to the main hall after feeding the horses. Seeing the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but be surprised in their hearts.
