Chapter 9

Wu Zhai was very pleased, he caressed Lue's back and laughed, as if he had returned to a month ago, that Yingying Yanyan, feasting and feasting...

Suddenly woke up, thinking that he was Qiu Qianchi.

Suddenly, it was dull.

Then he said sternly:

"Girl, have you finished copying the Heart Sutra?"

Lu'e didn't want to raise her head and said in a low voice:
"It's over!"

Wu Zhai said again:

"Go find Juekong and ask him to call Jueyuan to come. Don't take the scriptures this time."

Green Calyx wondered:

"Mom, shall we stop copying now?"

Wu Zhai said:
"I suddenly thought of a scripture written by the Patriarch Bodhidharma himself. Later, I will ask Jueyuan if there is a Sutra Pavilion, or maybe I remembered it wrong..."

Not long after, Jueyuan followed Gongsun Lue out of the mountain gate.

It was probably the first time for Jueyuan to walk with a woman, he was very cautious, and wanted to stay far behind, but Gongsun Lue wanted to wait for him.

So, after a short distance, the two arrived after walking for a long time.

Arriving in front of the Yiwei Pavilion, Jueyuan clasped his hands together and saluted, but Lue ran over, took Wu Zhai's arm, and whispered in his ear:
"Mom, this monk is very pedantic and rigid, as if he came from our Heartless Valley..."

Wu Zhai patted the back of her hand lightly, and said:
"Don't talk nonsense, Master Jueyuan is proficient in Buddhism and is an eminent monk who has attained the Tao."

Lue stuck out her sweet tongue and stood behind Wu Zhai.

Wu Zhai saw Jue Yuan's ears twitching but said nothing. He thought that because of his profound internal strength, he must have heard Gongsun Lu'e's complaints, so he leaned forward and said:
"The little girl has lived in the deep valley for a long time, and she doesn't understand the etiquette. If she offends, the old woman will apologize to the master!"

Jueyuan said together:
"Gongsun benefactor is innocent and kind, there is nothing wrong with what he said, the monk is like this, so don't worry about it."

Only then did Lue realize that the whispered words had been heard by the great monk, her cheeks flushed immediately, pretending to enjoy the scenery, she went out of the pavilion and walked into the distance...

Jue Yuan said:
"I don't know that Qiu benefactor called the little monk to come, can I ask you something?"

Wu Zhaidao sighed:
"Forgive me, master. I have gained a lot from reading the scriptures in the past few days. Yesterday in this reed pavilion, I suddenly remembered that Bodhidharma crossed the river with a reed in the past, and I couldn't help being fascinated..."

Jueyuan proclaimed the Buddha's name.

Wu Zhai said again:

"It is said that there is a "Langa Sutra" handed down by Patriarch Bodhidharma, which contains the gist of the Tathagata Buddha's teachings on Langa Island. Is there such a scripture in the Sutra Pavilion?"

Jue Yuan said:
"So that's the case. Donor Qiu didn't mention it. In a few days, the young monk will also bring this sutra. The "Langa Sutra" clarifies the mind and sees the nature, and preaches Mahayana Buddhism. It is suitable for Donor Qiu to recite here."

After thinking about it, he said:

"There are four Chinese translations of the "Langa Sutra", and three of them are still in existence today. The first is the translation by Nabhathara during the Liu Song Dynasty. The second is the translation of Bodhiliuzhi in the Yuan and Wei Dynasties, and it is called "The Ruo Lenga Sutra". Seven volumes, known as the "Seven Volumes of Langa". Among these three translations, the Seven Volumes of Langa is the most clear and easy to understand. In addition, there are still four volumes of the "Langa Sutra" that Bodhidharma brought when he traveled east. The book is written in Indian script. I wonder which one Qiu Shi mainly reads?"

Wu Zhai said:
"I'm stupid, just like the master said, let's start from the seven volumes of Lankavatara!"

Jue Yuan went back to the Buddhist Scripture Pavilion and took out seven volumes of "The Mahayana Sutra of Entering the Lankavatara". Gongsun Lue copied it for two days, and then went back to get another ten volumes of "The Sutra of Entering the Lankavatara" and copied it for three days.

On the sixth day, Wu Zhai ordered Lv'e to transcribe the four volumes of the "Langa Abadara Sutra", and he recited the first two translations aloud in the pavilion.

Jue Yuan came once, and Wu Zhai discussed with him the unclear points in the scriptures.

Jueyuan is dull by nature, but he is very proficient in Buddhism, citing scriptures, talking eloquently and witty words, which is clear to the ears and ears.

If it wasn't for this ugly woman's skin, Wu Zhai would like to live in this Shaolin Temple for a long time, listening to Jueyuan preaching Buddhist scriptures every day, he would feel very relaxed and comfortable.

On the seventh day, Jueyuan personally delivered the original book of Bodhidharma——

Four volumes of the Langa Sutra.

Wu Zhai's heart was full of enthusiasm, eager to read the "Nine Suns Manual", but Jue Yuan was so enthusiastic that he even wanted to teach Wu Zhai Tianzhu characters!
It took Wu Zhai a lot of effort to persuade him to leave. He lied that he admired the miracles of Bodhidharma. He had to first observe the "Langa Sutra" in an incomprehensible state, and then learn the Indian characters and read it carefully. There will be a difference comprehend.

Jue Yuan took it for granted, and then remembered that he didn't have such understanding and wisdom back then, he didn't expect this method, he missed a good match, and he was depressed and came back feeling disappointed...

This is:
Therefore, a gentleman can deceive him with the right way, but it is difficult to ignore the wrong way!
After Jueyuan left, Lue opened the "Langa Sutra" and said in surprise:

"Mom, I can't copy this one!"

Wu Zhai said:
"There is no need to copy this book, I can read it myself."

Green Calyx asked:

"Mom, you actually know Tianzhu characters?"

Wu Zhai replied casually:

"Know a little..."

Lue has long been used to all kinds of miraculous things about her mother, so she stopped talking and went to the side to sort out the scriptures recorded in the past thirty days.

I also remembered that today is the 30th day of No.[-], but Yang Guo was nowhere to be seen, secretly worried.

Wu Zhai opened the "Langa Sutra", and found that there were many small characters in the cracks, so he calmed down and recited silently, as if in meditation.

It was getting late, Wu Zhai put down the last volume of "Langa Sutra", and he had memorized the "Nine Suns Sutra" recorded in it, so he asked Lu'e to find Abbot Tianming to come.

Zen master Tianming was in evening class, when Juekong, a guest monk, came to report that the benefactor Qiu in Yiwei Pavilion had important matters to discuss, and he did not dare to treat him slowly, so he brought Zen master Wuxiang.

Wu Zhai was also polite, and said to Juekong:
"Master Juekong, please come back, I have some Buddhist discussions with two Zen masters."

Juekong looked at Abbot Tianming, and when he saw the latter nodded, he put his hands together, saluted, and went back to the temple.

Wu Zhai said again:

"Lue, why don't you go play in the distance for a while?"

Lu'e knew that her mother must have something very important to say, so she saluted the two masters and walked straight down the mountain...

When Zen Master Tianming saw that Wu Zhai had separated Juekong and Lu'e, he knew that what he said must be extremely secret, so he winked, and Zen Master Wu Se stood up and walked outside the pavilion, keeping watch everywhere.

Wu Zhai said:

"Master, please sit down. Here is a scripture for you to read."

Zen Master Tianming sat down and took the scriptures, but found that it was the original book of the "Lenga Sutra" written by Bodhidharma in the monastery.

Wu Zhai said in a low voice:
"The master doesn't need to look at the Indian characters, but the Chinese characters written in the cracks."

Zen Master Tianming looked at it for a while, then raised his head to look at Wu Zhai in horror, and said in a broken voice:
"The Nine Suns Manual?"

Wu Zhai nodded and said:
"Not busy, Master will ask after reading."

Zen Master Tianming nodded, and continued to read until he finished reading four volumes of the "Langa Sutra", closing his eyes and falling into samadhi directly...

 The signing status has been changed. From today onwards, it will be updated in the morning and evening O(∩_∩)O~, frantically looking for collections, book lists, and recommendation tickets O(∩_∩)O~
