There's a Madman Sharpening His Knife at Night

Rudraksha Temple consists of two parts: Vajra Court and Bodhi Court.

The abbots of the past generations were created between the heads of the two houses and were directly appointed by the abbot of the previous generation.

Because it is entirely the abbot who makes the final decision, the two houses do not alternate with each other. The next Abbot Bodhi must be Abbot Vajra.

There are often several Bodhi abbots, and very few Vajra abbots.

This is not the Bodhi Temple suppressing the Vajra Temple, but the tacit understanding that each abbot chooses the next abbot: Vajra eliminates karma in troubled times, and Bodhi Temple promotes peace and prosperity.

The duration of troubled times is always shorter than that of peace, which is why there are many Bodhisattvas and few Vajras.

After hearing the news about the death of the abbot of Rudraksha Bodhi Temple, Kong Luo's face finally moved, showing compassion.

He put his hands together and said the Buddha's name.

Kukai and Hoteru also said the same thing.

"After all, the abbot still hasn't taken that step, has he succeeded in extending his life?"

"In the last stage, in addition to manpower, there is still time. Master has worked hard for many years, but after all, he still has not waited for his time!"

"Neither birth nor death, life and death are the same. The abbot cannot understand life and death, and he has attachments in his heart. What does it have to do with the number of heaven?

As the saying goes, you can’t get what you ask for, and you can get what you don’t ask for. The abbot is sitting in the temple, just meditating. He also attaches great importance to martial arts. He claims to practice both Buddhism and martial arts, but in fact, martial arts has already lined up in front of the Buddha and has entered the lower vehicle. "

Kong Ryo did not mince his words and directly commented on Kukai’s master, the abbot of Rudraksha Bodhi Temple.

As soon as these words came out, Fazhao's face changed color. The abbot was highly respected in the temple and everyone in the temple didn't respect him very much. Unexpectedly, Kong Luo actually gave a poor evaluation. This!

He was angry but did not dare to speak, so he could only go to see his master. Unexpectedly, after hearing what Kukai said, his face remained calm.

He just said lightly, "Buddhism is boundless!"

"I just didn't expect that the abbot would make such a judgment in the future. In the troubled times of the Zhou and Sui Dynasties, King Kong had not yet been born!"

"Senior brother, does he know the ghost elixir?"

"Nature knows!"

"The group of alchemists from Chaotianyuan of the imperial court have now figured out a way to swallow elixirs without dying, and they need to be reconciled with relics!"

"I see!"

Kukai clicked and understood immediately. No wonder the abbot designated himself, the person he had expelled from the temple, as the next abbot. It turned out that he did not recognize his own Buddhism in his later years, but only recognized his martial arts!

Kong Qing's brows suddenly wrinkled.

"Brother, in some small temples in Yunzhou, the relics enshrined in them have been stolen or robbed, and even worse, the temples have been massacred.

It depends on the relics. In the North, I have the most Vajrabodhi Temple, so I will definitely not let us go. It is only a matter of time before it is our turn.

Rudraksha is already in a precarious situation. I hope that my senior brother will ignore past grudges and protect the Dharma! "

"If we really let them find a way to swallow the ghost pill, wouldn't this mean that cholera will plague the world and turn the world into a ghostland?"

Kukai stood up and took out a string of large black rosary beads from his arms.

"Senior brother!" His cloudy eyes looked at Kong.

Seeing this, Kong Luo looked solemn.

"The abbot's judgment was correct. Now it seems that King Kong has reached a situation where he has no choice but to step out!"

After saying that, he also stood up and bowed to Kukai.

Kukai hung the rosary beads in his hand around Kukai's neck.

When Kong Rong stood up, he saw both Kukai and Ho Teru bowing in front of him with their palms clasped together.

They shouted in unison: "Welcome to the birth of King Kong!"

As one of the two major Buddhist temples in the north and south of the Sui Dynasty, the handover ceremony of the abbot of the Rudraksha Bodhi Temple was completed at Cangshan Mountain in Qingzhou under the witness of Kukai and Fazhao.

Compared with the five major sects in the world, this kind of ceremony is simply crude and casual to the extreme.

But it does not hinder that the Vajra Bodhi Temple has since transformed from a low-browed Bodhi to an angry-eyed Vajra!

The entire three northern states, and even the entire Sui Dynasty, will change as a result.

After the simple etiquette was over, Kukai said: "Senior brother, my disciple Ho Zhao is the one I chose to kill you. I hope that senior brother will also accept him as a disciple and teach the essence of Kongouin martial arts!"

When Fazhao next to him heard this, he was shocked and his face turned pale. What happened to Master? Does he know what he is talking about?

Who knew that Kong was not angry but smiling instead, and looked at Fazhao with a warm smile. Fazhao was so surprised that his palms started to sweat again, and his muscles all over his body tightened subconsciously.

"He can't kill me, just accept him as his disciple!"

When Fazhao heard this, he didn't know that his master would suddenly say such a thing.

But there were still complex emotions mixed with relief and loss in my heart.

So, Kukai and Kukai each came up and rated the other's master as inferior.

Before the other person left, he said that he wanted the other person to train someone to kill him.

Not to mention other words, just looking at these two sentences before and after, they complement each other perfectly. They are indeed brothers and sisters!

"Senior brother, my master has passed away. With the power of my Kurong Zen, I still can't break my brother's Vajra Zen! I must have helpers!"

As he said this, Kukai glanced at the injuries on Kong Ryo's body. During the conversation between the two, he saw the large bloody handprint on his chest, which had dimmed at this time.

As soon as the big handprint dimmed and became empty, it seemed as if it had broken free from some kind of shackles, and the fist and palm prints on the body began to recover quickly.

It's time to see that your body is about to return to its original state.

"The Dharma can't take away from my Dharma, but I still teach him the Vajra to subdue demons and keep it as a backup plan.

As for the others, I already have a candidate in mind, junior brother, don’t worry! "

"In this case, I believe that senior brother can definitely make arrangements!"

Sora and Kukai were walking and talking.

Fazhao followed closely, and he saw that his master did not mention at all who his uncle had fought with before.

I couldn't help myself and took the time to ask.

This question made Kukai sigh and Kukai smile.

"Bodhi's original nature, pure nature is Bodhi. The original pure and bright mind is not elsewhere, but in the delusional minds of all living beings."

These are the words engraved on the entrance wall of Bodhi Temple.

At this time, Kongluo said to Fazhao something that everyone in Bodhi Courtyard would see every day, which immediately made Fazhao's face turn red and he was so ashamed.

Kukai sighed: "I didn't tell you before, but now that senior brother is the abbot, you will have to work harder on Buddhism in the future!"

"Disciple, obey!"

"Haha, junior brother, there is no need to be harsh. Bodhicitta is also cultivated step by step. Fa Zhao is still young, so just take your time."

After speaking, he said to Fazhao: "A donor who came across the border has committed a lot of murders nearby in the past few days. I finally found him yesterday. Who knew that the donor's karma was too heavy and he couldn't listen to the Dharma at all?" , since it cannot be inspired by Buddhism, it can only be transcended by Buddhism!”

When Fazhao heard this, he looked at Kong's sincere face, not like he was joking with him, and suddenly took a deep breath in his heart.

My uncle, the new abbot. I do have my own unique understanding of Buddhism.
