Gourmets in the Heavens

At this time, at the foot of Taishi Mountain in Zhongzhou, the ruins of the Dachan Temple, a group of envoys was preparing dinner, because Zhao Youqian wanted to see what the former holy place looked like now, so the envoys changed their route for a while, passing here, which also attracted many envoys Chinese curiosity.

Together with going up the mountain to see the situation of the former head of Buddhism.

With the two masters Hong Yi and Zhao Yougan present, they were not worried about their safety, even the packs of wild wolves that used to walk through the Taishi Mountain did not dare to approach, they could only hear howling wolves in the distance.

oooooooo!

There were not many people in the group, Zhao Youqian and Hong Yi walked in the front, and they didn't see any lanterns, Zhao Youqian simply cast a talisman to illuminate the surroundings.

Dozens of flickering spots of light illuminate the surroundings brightly, like daytime.

It even dispelled the somewhat gloomy atmosphere, and among the few people whispering, it really seemed like a little outing.

"In the past, the magnificent scenery of Zhulou and the majestic Buddha statue disappeared overnight, which is really embarrassing..."

Zhao Youqian stood still at a place that looked flat, and how many tiles were broken under his feet.

Waved the light source talisman away, and only then did the people behind them see clearly that they were already on the ruins of the Great Chan Temple.

There are mottled stone statues everywhere, broken walls, and on the rubble, you can still see the appearance of the goddess Buddha carved in the past, and one piece after another, the remaining broken walls are continuous on the top of the mountain, as if there is no end.

What's more, there are huge Buddha statues covered with moss, branches, cauldrons and other things mixed in it.

It gives people a sense of incomparable desolation and a sense of absurdity that was once unimaginably brilliant...

Chapter 57 Fate is like this, Secrets of the Underground Palace

"Prosperity and decline, the sky is impermanent, that's how it is!"

Hong Yi's expression was very calm at this time, and it didn't make any difference because this was the place where he had the greatest opportunity.

"Back then, the leader of the Buddhist temple, running a horse and burning incense, was so spectacular and luxurious that some people still remember it."

"However, in the pure place of Buddhism, it collects property, does not produce, does not pay taxes, but practices martial arts and medicine every day, and even takes in the royal figures of the previous dynasty to fight against the new dynasty. If you think about it carefully, you can know that this extravagant place Now, in the grandeur, how many innocent people's flesh and blood are concealed, and so many hidden secrets are concealed!"

Xu Shi saw this scene of ruins, but Hong Yi said something that should not have been said, causing many people present to look sideways.

But thinking about it carefully, all of what Hong Yi said was true. When the people present looked at the ruins of the Great Chan Temple, they felt a little less regretful and more deserving of it.

However, among the envoys who came to play together, there were also Buddhist believers. Hearing Hong Yi's words, he couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

"Then is doing such a big act counted as eliminating harm for the people?"

"The Great Zen Temple is not limited to monks who practice martial arts. There are also many Buddhist masters who do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and practice meditation without doing martial arts!"

Hong Yi was not annoyed when he saw someone refute, and he didn't say that those eminent monks can practice hard, or even practice martial arts.

Instead, he spoke softly.

"Naturally there are innocent people in Dachan Temple, there will always be, so I didn't say that it's right to do it!"

"If a country wants to be strong, it should not be based on plunder. Today's Dachan Temple has contributed to the current court's raging fire, but this has also disturbed the hearts of the people who were originally doing it slowly..."

"Especially for those people who were trying to refine weapons, magic weapons, and even the sacrificial pagodas of the Great Zen Temple. The relics and bodies of countless eminent monks were excavated and used as materials. Where did such behavior come from the righteous way, where did the law come from? "

Now that he mentioned this, Hong Yi was not afraid that what he said would be cruel.

Cultivating the mind has reached his level. He has always followed his original heart in every word and action. The unity of knowledge and action was proposed by him, so of course he must practice it personally.

Questioning the soul with conscience, there are simple criteria for judging whether it is right or wrong.

"The Great Zen Temple has made a mistake. The mistake is that it deviates from the Buddhist philosophy, becomes extravagant, exploits the people, and gnaws the bones and sucks the marrow to make it feel at ease."

"But there are also mistakes in the imperial family. The mistake is to treat the deer as a horse, to plunder the king's deeds, to disturb the undead, to destroy the resting place, to dig the grave, and his actions have entered the path of the devil!"

"In this world, wrong can't cover up right, but right can't cover up wrong either!"

Hong Yi's words resounded loudly, above the empty hall, there seemed to be a Sanskrit voice echoing.

"When I go to Yujing City, I will investigate the faults of the Daqian royal family for the dead, but I will not let go of the past of the Dachan Temple. Are you convinced?"

Suddenly he questioned nothingness, as if there were dead souls responding, countless glowing fireflies came out from nowhere, hovering around Hong Yi's body, as if nodding and thanking.

Seeing this scene, Hong Yi nodded silently, then turned to look at Zhao Youqian.

"Brother, here are the rest..."

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Zhao Youqian did not expect Hong Yi to do such a behavior, but it was because of this that Zhao Youqian was more satisfied with Hong Yi now.

He doesn't copy what others say, and he doesn't just look at one side. If there is right and wrong, he will be punished.

Never generalizing, it shows that Hong Yi's way has gradually begun to become more mature and complete.

Didn't they see behind them, those envoys from overseas countries were only shocked by Hong Yi's speech, and didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said?

This is a kind of aura formed by Hong Yi's words and deeds, without hypocrisy and without affectation.

In order to maintain this kind of aura, one must combine Tao and action, that is, to truly achieve the unity of knowledge and action.

From this point of view, Hong Yi really has a way to defend his soul, and he is even better than the original Hong Yi!

This kind of Hong Yi can truly undertake the great wish of immortality and lead all the spirits in this world to the other side where everyone is like a dragon, instead of making a great wish to achieve one person, all spirits will still perish!

So seeing that Hong Yi's interest is not high now, Zhao Youqian also walked out with a smile on his face.

"It is rumored that the founder of the Great Zen Temple once built an underground palace, hidden in Taishi Mountain, and absorbed the dragon soul of Taishi Mountain, intending to step into a higher realm, but now... the Great Zen Temple has been destroyed, and it has been a great struggle in the past. The army dug three feet into the ground here and searched for several months but still couldn't find the underground palace, so everyone in the world thought it was nonsense."

Just after Hong Yi's heartbreaking words were over, those overseas envoys who followed him up the mountain, their little hearts had not calmed down, heard Zhao Youqian tell the shocking secret again.
