Chapter 108 Hostility from Buddhism

Yue Shan finally affirmed one thing, Falin was here to make trouble.

In fact, if you think about it, you will know that he and Li Shimin are close and everyone knows that Taoism supports Li Shimin and is naturally friendly to him, and Li Chunfeng speaks very kindly when he sees him.

Buddhists support Li Jiancheng, and it is difficult to have a good impression of him.What's more, he has always claimed that his master is an old Taoist priest, and it is reasonable to trouble him.

However, Yue Shan is not the kind of person who resigns himself to it. I usually keep a low profile to avoid disasters and not to be afraid of troubles.You have been bullied to the top, so naturally I won't give you a good face.

As for Falin's fortune-telling... Don't say he doesn't know who this monk is, even if he knew, he wouldn't do the fortune-telling.

Those who believe in fortune-telling will naturally believe it, and those who don't believe it will not believe it even if you say that it breaks the sky, and it will attract ridicule instead.So today's fate is not important, what is important is how to make the other party speechless.

He has experience with the natives, that is to seize the right to speak and crush the opponent with the knowledge of later generations.And Falin is not Kong Yingda, he is willing to reason with Kong Yingda, because Kong Yingda has no malice towards him.

Falin's intentions were obviously not pure, so he naturally wouldn't be reasonable.Messing around is exactly the keyboard man's best skill.

"Master asked the wrong person. Isn't the purpose of cultivating Buddhism to change one's life against the heavens? Why do you ask me?" Yue Shan said.

Unexpectedly, this sentence of his made Falin's face change drastically, and she quickly replied: "Stop talking nonsense, Viscount Yue, my Buddhist school obeys the fate of the heavens, so how can I do something against the heavens and change my fate?"

It was only then that Yue Shan came to his senses that it was indeed inappropriate to say in front of the emperor that he would change his fate against the sky.In order to facilitate the rule, the ancient court adopted a policy of obscuring the people, telling everyone that fate is predestined, and you must accept your fate.

Yue Shan said that Buddhism teaches people not to accept fate... Well, the viciousness of their intentions is outrageous.

However, Yue Shan didn't intend to let him go just like that, and immediately asked: "Since believing in Buddhism can't change your destiny, why do you still believe in Buddha?"

"Belief in Buddhism is to seek peace of mind, and to seek blessings in the afterlife." Farin replied with a sneer.

"Oh? Then if a heinous criminal believes in Buddhism, he can also seek peace of mind and have blessings in the next life?" After hearing his answer, Yue Shan immediately asked the next question, without giving him a chance to think. .

"Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately." Falin subconsciously uttered this very popular sentence in Buddhism.

The rest of the Buddhist believers couldn't help but nod their heads, yes, put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately.nothing wrong.

But some people couldn't help frowning.For example, Xiao Yu, Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, had the intention of standing up to refute.

But before he could speak, Yue Shan scolded loudly: "The absurdity of the desolate world, you can become a Buddha by putting down the butcher knife, so what's the use of the law?"

Of course he knew that this sentence could not be understood literally, but now was the time to mess around and attack the other party, so naturally there was no need to talk so much about it.

"This... I don't mean that he doesn't have to accept the punishment of the law. It means that as long as he sincerely repents and devotes himself to the Buddha, he will also be blessed by the Buddha." Farin said with a difficult tone.

"After listening to the master's words, I finally understand why there are such tragic events in the world as 'killing people and setting fire to golden belts, repairing bridges and paving roads without corpses'.

It turns out that no matter what mistakes you made during your lifetime, as long as you believe in Buddhism, you can be blessed by Buddha.I can't help but want to believe in Buddhism. Tomorrow I will buy a few Buddhist scriptures and make a few Buddha statues. From now on, we will also be Buddhist disciples. " Yue Shan said sarcastically.

"Viscount Yue is so eloquent. If you slander my Buddha like this, won't you be afraid of Abi Hell after death?" Falin finally couldn't bear it anymore, and angrily scolded.

"Haha... I was originally a Buddha, how could I go to Avici Hell? Master, you misinterpreted the Buddha's meaning so you really have to be careful about going to hell after death." Yue Shan laughed loudly.

"Wow..." Not only Falin was stunned, everyone who heard this sentence was in an uproar.

Yue Shan said he is the 'Buddha'?This……

It's too arrogant. Although many people here don't believe in Buddhism or even despise Buddhism, no one has ever dared to say that he is a Buddha in public.Yueshan is definitely the first.

Thinking about the identity of his fairy child, everyone couldn't help but start to think about it for a while.

Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin and others also suddenly changed their colors, staring fixedly at Yue Shan trying to see something from his face.However, Yue Shan's face was calm without any panic, as if he was stating the facts.

"Put it..." Falin, who had reacted, was so angry that his face was stained with sauce, and he almost yelled, but he stopped suddenly as soon as he uttered a word, took a deep breath and folded his hands together and murmured:
"Amitabha, I, the Buddha, forgive sins. When a disciple gets angry and violates the precept of anger, he must copy the Diamond Sutra three times to atone for this sin."

Ok?Yue Shan couldn't help showing a surprised expression.He really didn't expect that Falin not only didn't scold him, but instead punished himself for copying the scriptures because of anger.

To be honest, he admired this kind of xinxing cultivation.At least this is a real monk, not the kind of person who recites Amitabha Buddha in his mouth and thinks of spicy pot in his heart.

If there is a choice, I really don't want to go against such a person, Yue Shan said with emotion.It's a pity, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes.

"Viscount Yue, please be careful with your words." Falin restrained her anger and advised.

"What scriptures did the master learn?" Yue Shan asked.

"The poor monk has read ten volumes of the "Prajna Sutra", sixty volumes of the "Avatamsaka Sutra", and both the Diamond Sutra and the Lotus Sutra." Falin didn't know why he asked this question, but still answered.

"No wonder you don't know the real Buddha." Yue Shan shook his sleeves and said, "Buddhist classics are numerous. Only the "Prajna Sutra" has [-] volumes in sixteen chapters, the "Avatamsaka Sutra" [-] volumes, and the "Shurangama Sutra." "Ten volumes, and the rest of the Diamond Sutra, Lotus Sutra and other scriptures range from a few volumes to hundreds of volumes. The few books you have read are just a drop in the ocean."

"You should have read the Nirvana Sutra, don't you remember the allusion of the blind man touching the elephant? What is the difference between you and those blind people who touch the elephant and dare to speak falsely about Buddhist affairs after reading only a few Buddhist classics?"

As a senior keyboard warrior, Yue Shan knew very well that blindly messing around would only arouse everyone's disgust, so he had to come up with some dry goods.

Just like when I was arguing with Kong Yingda at the beginning, what I said above is actually useless at all, what really works is the last sentence, "People can, let them know; if they can't, let them know".

If there is no finale in the last sentence, the previous words are no different from farting in front of the master.But with this sentence, the previous words are all real truths.

Arguing with Falin is the same, you must come up with real dry goods to prove that he is not good at learning.Otherwise, those previous words would be useless at all, and would leave people with the impression of being frivolous and unreliable.

How to prove that Falin is not good at learning?

Thank you Journey to the West, thank Wu Chengen, and thank Master Xuanzang.

Because of Journey to the West, Chinese people from eighty-year-olds to three-year-old children know that the Buddhist classics handed down to China before the monk Tang learned from them are incomplete.

It wasn't until Master Xuanzang rode a white dragon horse and led his three apprentices all the way through ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties to retrieve the scriptures that the meaning of domestic Buddhist scriptures was complete.

Because of Journey to the West, Yue Shan also deliberately learned about Master Xuanzang's experience, and roughly knew which scriptures he had retrieved.

But today, these things can be used to attack Farin.

With so many Buddhist classics, you dare to say that you understand the Buddha and comprehend the meaning of the Buddha after reading a few of them?Too thick-skinned.
