Taoist temple in the mountains

Chapter 396, Suddenly Spring Breeze Comes Overnight
Li Yun said with a smile on his face: "This is based on the personal standpoint of the poor Taoist. Whether it is good or bad, it is all out of personal standpoint. Regarding Buddhism and Taoism, the poor Taoist just prefers the Taoist school. There is no need for a reason, it has nothing to do outside influence."

There was no sound, and even Yijie fell silent. The surrounding Taoists thought it made sense, and even the bearded old Taoist was convinced by these words to give an impeccable answer, an answer that he answered with Master Kongjian.

"At first, I thought that Buddhists were a bunch of people trying to gain fame, but those like Shi Yongxing are just individual scum," muttered a little Taoist next to him.

"At first, I also thought that Taoist sects were all self-proclaimed guys. It seems to be reasonable." One of the young monks also began to reflect.

After these words, the atmosphere at the scene was a little better, but it was only a little bit better. From the standpoint, Buddhism and Taoism are still facing each other, after all, they are competitors.

Feeling the change in the surrounding atmosphere, Yijie felt that he was really terrible. He obviously wanted to question it and show his advanced Zen principles by the way, but ended up being married to someone.

"Guanzhu Yun's words have also benefited us a lot." Qingyue on the side smiled slightly, looking at her colleagues around: "Actually, it is not only the barrier between Buddhism and Taoism, but also the division between our Taoism is too clear. Well, in the past, when we were born and entered the world, the question of who is the real Daoist sect was hotly debated, but aren’t we all so-called Daoist sects? Why are there so many barriers between Daoist sects?”

Qingyue's words also caused the people around to fall into deep thought. Many times, the sect of entering the world and the sect of leaving the world would quarrel with each other, just like the gap between lay disciples and monk disciples of Buddhism. It is impossible for a person with hair to stand harmoniously with a bald head
At this time, Yijie was also faintly jealous, and the atmosphere of the people present was mobilized. Finally, when Yijie was thinking of asking some tricky questions, Kong Jian Zen Master stood up with a look of wanting to ask. The look of the problem.

"Zen Master Kong Jian, finally can't bear it anymore, the real master who spreads Zen principles as ideals" Yijie felt a message in his heart, thinking that Zen Master Kong Jian should make the Buddhist side look up, even though he had beaten himself before, But Buddhism is Buddhism, and everyone is a teacher from the same school.
Li Yun looked at Zen Master Kongjian quietly, and Zen Master Kongjian also looked at Li Yun quietly, and said slowly.

"Guanzhu Yun, what is Tao? What is your Tao?"

The surrounding Taoists and Buddhists all quieted down. This question can be said to be the theme of this discussion, explaining the personal way, explaining one's own way, and explaining the way of the Taoist school.

Li Yun also looked at Zen Master Kongjian indifferently and said.

"Pindao once said that you are not qualified to argue with the poor."

The audience was dumbfounded, especially the monks headed by Yijie, their faces were a little excited.

"What did this bull-nosed man say?"

"How can you talk to Zen Master Kongjian like that?"

"Sure enough, this kid is very unreliable." Yijie's face was agitated, but he secretly laughed in his heart: "This is an insult to our Buddhist sect, why did such a person come out of this Taoist sect, it is simply against the Taoist sect, against the Buddhist sect Two insults."

The Taoist priests around were also puzzled for a while, no matter what the festival was in private, it was no longer a matter of disrespecting Zen Master Kong Jian, who was highly advanced in Buddhism, on this occasion, it was directly provocative.

Only Xuan Li and others who knew what happened in Dalin Temple that day knew that Li Yun's words were actually very reasonable. Using one's own desire to let others make a wedding dress, even if it has a bad influence on the surrounding No matter what, this is simply embarrassing Buddhism itself.

Hearing Li Yun's words, Zen Master Kong Jian was not angry, but said calmly with an expected expression.

"The poor monk has expelled Zhizhi from the gate of the temple, and he has stricter requirements on the people in the temple not to violate the precepts and not to harm others for selfish desires. The management personnel have also cleared it again, all of which are carried out by the poor monk himself. Now , is the poor monk qualified to discuss the Tao with you?"

Everyone, including Qingyue and Xuanli, did not expect Zen Master Kong to put on such a low profile, which is simply unimaginable.

Especially Yijie, he said in disbelief: "Abbot Kong Jian, you... can you not put on such a low profile? He is nothing! You are a master, our local Buddhist master with profound Dharma, the other party is just Just a junior."

"Just because the poor monk is a little older, does it mean that I am stronger than him, and does it mean that the poor monk's Dharma is more profound?" Zen Master Kongjian stood up, and just said indifferently: "For the poor monk To put it bluntly, the so-called [desire] is to witness and spread Zen principles, Yun Guanzhu’s way can deepen my understanding of Zen principles, so what does it matter what kind of posture I put on?”

"I don't believe that he can say any profound truths. It's obvious that they were fallacies before." Yijie was a little hard to accept. The Zen master I was in awe of, actually talked to others with such a low profile, it was simply unreasonable: " I don't believe he can say anything great."

Li Yun didn't speak, just opened the daughter Hong in his hand, and said indifferently: "See Zen Master Kong, do you want to drink?"

Even Xuanli and the others were twitching at the corners of their mouths. They didn't know what Li Yun was thinking. Asking the monk whether he drank or not, was it not finding fault? road.

"do not drink."

"You can drink it poorly." Li Yun opened the mud seal on the top of the wine jar, raised his head boldly, and poured the wine down.

A scent of wine spread, and everyone could smell it.

Some old monks were trembling with anger, what does it mean to perform drinking in front of people, got up and wanted to leave, Yijie was also thinking in his heart, how should he describe this abominable and funny scene to his master when he goes back.

Only Kong Jian Zen Master looked serious and determined.

Li Yun looked at Zen Master Kong Jian, finally smiled and said.

"Very good, then let me show you my way. I have seen many things before, and this is the way I realized in many things."

Under the unexpected eyes of everyone, Li Yun poured out the remaining wine, and the wine was poured on the floor and on the falling peach petals along with the wind.

Before I can figure it out, more flowers burst out of the ground, from the cracks in the stones, from the cracks in the wall, from the stones
Suddenly, like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear trees bloom——

"This is the way of poverty"

The flowers are in full bloom and the scenery is like spring.
