Happy Little Scholar

The old monk of Hanshan Temple said a seemingly powerful Buddhist saying to break the situation, but unexpectedly he was defeated by a slap from the middle-aged monk in an instant.

Not only was he slapped by the middle-aged monk, but he was also slapped by himself.

One moment he was saying "no joy, no anger", and the next moment he was glaring at people, contradicting himself. This is how an old monk with profound Buddhist teachings was defeated.

The old monk was not his enemy, let alone the young monk. Even the anger on his face was forcibly put back.

"These monks are not simple..."

"They should be here for the Land and Water Dharma Assembly."

"It depends on how Hanshan Temple handles it."

"Why doesn't Master Tanyin take action?"

------

------

The monks of Jingguo were slapped in the face by foreign monks, and the faces of the people of Jingguo were naturally not good-looking. This was not only about the face of Hanshan Temple, it was enough to rise to the level of national honor.

Obviously, as dignitaries in Beijing, these people present have the highest national self-esteem.

At this moment, no one said anything about dragging these monks out and beating them to death with sticks.

The water and land ceremony held by Hanshan Temple this time is not only for monks from Jingguo, but also for foreign monks with friendly intentions.

If he really dragged them out and beat them to death, wouldn't it mean that he was afraid?

Even if it can block the mouths of one or two people, can it block the mouths of everyone present?

If this matter spreads out, the reputation Hanshan Temple has accumulated over the years will be destroyed.

Therefore, what everyone is looking forward to most at this moment is that Master Tanyin can really defeat these foreign monks with ulterior motives in Buddhism.

It had been a while since the old monk brought people to the door to provoke him, and more and more people were gathering around him. At the end of the lecture in a certain Buddhist hall, the crowd came out and saw the situation here, and gathered here with doubts. .

Li Xuan and Li Mingzhu also walked towards Li Yi. More than ten guards surrounded them, looking at everything around them vigilantly.

"what happened?"

Li Xuan glanced at the monks who were facing each other in the middle and said doubtfully.

Li Yi gestured to the audience, "Let's continue reading first."

Li Yi didn't say anything, but Princess Shouning excitedly recounted what had just happened. She just felt that listening to these monks talking was much more interesting than staying in the palace all day and listening to the lectures of those old gentlemen.

Except, of course, Mr. Arithmetic.

"The bitter monk of Qi." Li Mingzhu said.

"What?" Li Yi looked back at her.

"That man is a bitter monk from Qi State." Li Mingzhu looked at the middle-aged monk holding an iron rod and said slowly: "Holding an iron rod and shaving his hair and eyebrows, he is undoubtedly a bitter monk. Only Qi State has such a monk."

If these monks are all monks from Qi State, then it makes sense to come here to cause trouble.

This is national hatred. Buddhism has no national boundaries, but monks have national boundaries.

Monks from Qi and Jing have never dealt with them.

At this time, the old monk of Hanshan Temple who had just spoken had already retreated with a face full of shame. The old monk Zhixin looked at Master Tanyin with a smile on his face and asked, "What is a Buddha?"

"To actually turn Buddha around with Master Tanyin, you are really overestimating your abilities!"

"Master Tanyin's Dharma is so profound that this old monk will definitely be defeated."

"What is a Buddha? To ask such a simple question, I'm afraid even a monk can answer it."

Everyone still has full confidence in Master Tanyin. After all, the name of the great eminent monk did not come from the strong wind. Even His Majesty personally admitted it. How can the master's Dharma be fake?

However, unlike what everyone imagined, they did not see the scene where Master Tanyin defeated the foreign monks with a few words. After the old monk asked this sentence for a long time, Master Tanyin did not speak.

"Why doesn't Master Tanyin say anything?" Everyone began to wonder.

"Is this question difficult to answer?"

"Master won't..." Seeing Master Tanyin's expression, some people had doubts on their faces.

What is Buddha?

It's normal for them to be unable to answer this question. Master Tanyin wouldn't be able to answer it either. He is a virtuous and eminent monk!

"Why bother, monk?" Li Yi sighed. Although he didn't understand Buddhism, he was well-informed. There are many traps in this kind of problem. You can't let the other party take the initiative at all, otherwise the other party will take the lead if you are not careful. , at this time, Master Tanyin’s approach is the wisest.

"You can't say it, you can't say it. Everything you say is wrong." Li Yi muttered in a low voice.

Li Mingzhu raised her head and glanced at him in surprise. This sentence did not look like it could be said from his mouth.

"What can't be said?" When the proud Loli heard this, the expression on her face became even more confused.

Some people around who were familiar with Buddhism also heard Li Yi's words and nodded in agreement.

As the young man said, Master Tanyin cannot answer this question. As soon as he opens his mouth, he will be greeted by the other party chasing after him.

Li Yi stood next to Master Tanyin. Although his voice was soft, he still did not escape the other person's ears.

He turned his head slightly and glanced at Li Yi. This was the second time he heard this sentence from his mouth, and it was the same as what he was thinking at this time.

"Why doesn't Master Tanyin speak?" Monk Zhixin said with a smile.

It was wrong to say it, and it was also wrong not to say it------Countless people were thinking in their hearts, how about dragging these monks out and beating them to death with sticks?

Princess Shouning couldn't help it, so she pulled Li Yi's sleeve and asked, "Why doesn't Master Tanyin speak? Doesn't he know the answer? What is Buddha?"

Children's hearts are very simple and pure. She didn't know what the conversation between the two old monks meant. She was just curious about the answer to the question.

Curiosity is what children of this age have the most, even if she is a princess.

She didn't ask Li Xuan or Li Mingzhu because in her eyes, the master should know everything, just like his father.

Looking at the little Lolita's eyes full of curiosity, Li Yi couldn't say the three words "I don't know".

He touched her head and whispered, "Master Tanyin is a great monk, how could he not know the answer to this question? It's just that the master is a master. If he says the answer directly, wouldn't he be no different from those ordinary people?"

Li Yi's voice was very low, and it was only spread in a small range around him. However, as soon as he opened his mouth, several people around him focused their eyes on him.

After all, the person who could say that was not a simple person. Moreover, they also wanted to know why he made such a statement. Did he really understand what Master Tanyin meant?

"How did you know that?" Princess Shouning was even more curious. The master didn't say it, so how could you know his thoughts?

"What did the monk ask Master Tanyin just now?" Li Yi asked with a smile.

"What is Buddha?" Princess Shouning said immediately.

"Look, although Master Tanyin didn't say anything just now, he looked at me, looked at you, and looked at the people around him. But if you think about that question, it's not difficult to understand that he actually wanted to say that you are Buddha, I am Buddha, and all sentient beings are Buddha..." As a mathematics teacher, Li Yi fulfilled his responsibilities as a Buddhist teacher very well. If Princess Shouning had such a teacher.

"There was a monk in the pre-Tang Dynasty who said this: If you don't understand, Buddha is all living beings. When you understand, all living beings are Buddhas. In fact, it means that each of us has Buddha nature, but it is covered by the worldly world. This is what Master Tanyin wants to tell us. Master Tanyin is indeed a great monk who can prove the Buddha's ritual invisibly. I admire him. I admire him."

"So that's how it is..." The little Lolita nodded as if she understood.

It can't be said, it can't be said, it really can't be said. After the master said it, she was actually more confused...

"So that's it!" A man in brocade clothes behind Li Yi suddenly realized.

Another person was full of joy: "No wonder Master Tanyin looked at me just now. All living beings are Buddhas. So, I also have Buddha nature?"

"Ah, I understand, so that's what the master meant!" Several people exclaimed.

"I am guilty. I actually doubted Master Tanyin just now. I am guilty!" One person said repeatedly with a face full of repentance.

"Every move is Buddhist principles. This is the master!" Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.

Master Tanyin is indeed a great monk. Even after being seen through, he can still keep a calm face.

He smiled and glanced at Li Yi. Is this what he meant? Is this really what he meant?

Well, if Little Donor Li Yi said yes, then that's it...

The one who knows me is Little Donor Li Yi.
