"Bao'er, go pour tea for the guests, um... use my snow lotus."
The weirdo inflated his chest and abdomen and made another sound. Although he could not speak, he was proficient in the art of ventriloquism.
The little girl glanced at Luo Kai cautiously and asked in a low voice: "Master, this may be a powerful guy. Could he be the one who arrested you from Tianlei Palace?"
The weirdo had a smile on his face and said, "No, go get some tea."
The little girl breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and walked towards the back hall.
The weirdo's dark eyes turned to Luo Kai and said, "My little friend, please come in and talk."
Luo Kai walked into the hall and sat across from the weirdo. The Buddhist practice method is completely different from the Taoist physical skills that focus on body training. If he is not mistaken, this weirdo practices a mind-eye method, although he cannot see with his eyes. , his ears cannot hear, but all changes in external things cannot be hidden from his "eye of the soul."
The eye of the mind is also called the five eyes. It comes from the Buddhist classic "Diamond Sutra". It refers to the insight into the beginning and end of things and phenomena from ordinary people to the Buddha. There are five levels, including the physical eye, the heavenly eye, the wisdom eye, and the Dharma eye. and Buddha Eyes.
Needless to say, the naked eye is the eye of ordinary people. When promoted to the celestial eye, it is not limited by distance, volume, luminosity, nor is it restricted by hiding or revealing. It does not need to be reflected by light and shadow. It is spiritual power. The reflection or refraction effect, as for the higher levels of wisdom eye, Dharma eye, and Buddha eye, is beyond his ability to guess.
Just when Luo Kai was meditating, the weirdo was also "observing" him. After a while, he suddenly said: "Look at my little friend, his spirit is restrained and his mind is empty. He has reached the state of discernment that can break through illusions. Discuss Buddhism." Your cultivation level is still above mine."
Luo Kai smiled faintly and said: "But I don't know what level the master's mind has reached?"
The weirdo shook his head with a look of shame on his face: "Ashamed, I have practiced hard since I was a child, but my qualifications are really poor. I was restless, stubborn, and unstable when I was fifteen years old. After I first came into contact with Buddhism, I made up my mind to cut off my limbs. I thought that I would At this time, I could concentrate on practicing Buddhism, but when I was eighteen years old, I felt deeply the temptation of the world of mortals, so I blinded my eyes again, but I still couldn't stop the sound of darkness. Later, I completely cut off all external perception and practiced hard to silence the cicada. Hundreds of years have passed by in a hurry, and now I have finally caught a glimpse of the supreme magic of Buddhism, and I have barely reached the level of wisdom."
Luo Kai was a little shocked. These ascetic monks are really beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. Regardless of any religion, self-discipline is emphasized. Self-discipline is excellent, but to the extent of self-abuse, it is too much. In his understanding, the real path of cultivation should be Taoism. Follow nature, follow your heart, do what you like, and get twice the result with half the effort, instead of chasing the last at the expense of others. Of course, you can't be too casual. You need to find a balance.
The girl named Bao'er walked in and glanced at Luo Kai with some fear. She heard what the two of them said just now. She didn't expect that this young man who looked delicate could actually achieve the same level of wisdom as the master. With a clear understanding of the situation, he carefully poured him a cup of tea with a refreshing scent and quickly retreated to the weirdo's side.
There was a white petal floating in the tea, which was very fragrant. Luo Kai took a sip, and a cool breath rushed straight to his forehead. His slightly tired mental strength seemed to have recovered a little, and he was a little surprised. Mental strength is a level of consciousness. It is difficult to restore energy by external force. The white petals of this flower are not ordinary. He praised it: "Good tea."
The weirdo smiled and said: "As long as you like me, little friend. As soon as I see you, you will know that you have met the right person. According to my Buddhist teachings, according to the root of wisdom, one can connect to the heaven and the earth. My silent meditation has only been able to do this so far in my life." It has been broken twice, the first time was when it was a matter of life and death in Tianlei Palace, and now it is the second time."
Luo Kai shook his head and said: "Master is overly praised. In my opinion, wisdom root is not something you are born with, but you need to grow to see wisdom."
The weirdo's expression became solemn: "It's not an exaggeration. There are not many people in the world that I can't see through. My friend is one of them. To be honest, I want to ask my friend to do me a favor. This matter concerns Tianlei Palace. The danger is also related to the danger of hundreds of millions of people!"
Ever since he met this strange man, Luo Kai had a premonition of trouble coming, so he drank all the tea, stood up and said: "Thank you for the tea, I'm really sorry, I'm just a passerby, and I don't want to involve too much. "Lifting your feet to leave.
The weirdo straightened up and said deeply: "Since my little friend is deeply familiar with the essence of Buddhism, he naturally knows the cycle of cause and effect. Your arrival may be to end a period of cause and effect."
Luo Kai paused, hesitated for a moment, sat down again, and said, "Master, please tell me. I don't like trouble. If it's too much trouble, I can't do anything."
The weirdo sighed and told the story. His name was Zakun, and he was an elder of the Moko Sect of Tianlei Palace. He had been hunted by another major faction, the Kashyapa Sect, over the years and had to hide here.
As one of the three holy places of human physical arts, Tianlei Palace is far less famous and powerful than Shangjing University and Longyang Temple. This is just because the saints of Tianlei Palace do not choose to educate sentient beings, but to escape from the world. Unlike the other two major The Holy Land gathers talents from all over the world, but it gradually declines from generation to generation, and even the inheritance of saints has problems.
After reaching the saint, you can pass on your own cultivation memory through some kind of secret treasure. Like the Book of Universe given by Yun Zhen to Luo Kai, it can greatly increase the inheritor's growth rate of mind and understanding of external things. Tianlei The inherited treasure of the palace is a Bodhi relic, which contains the cultivation memories of several generations of Buddhist saints.
Today, Tianlei Palace is divided into three major sects. Among them, the Moko sect still respects the ancient inheritance, emphasizes escaping from the world and practicing asceticism, and recognizes that all potential dharma is like a dream. As long as you are not contaminated by it, you can naturally understand your mind and nature. To enter the world, one can only witness the Buddha's heart and carry forward the essence of Buddhism through the experience of the mortal world. The remaining Luo Zha faction is the guardian Vajra of Tianlei Palace, and has been responsible for walking around the world to hunt heretics and resist evil beasts.
Among the three major sects, the Luozha sect has the smallest number and has never participated in the inheritance of saints. The Bodhi relics have always been passed on to the Moko sect. However, the saints of the Tianlei Palace of the previous generation were not naturally enthroned, and no arrangements were made for the inheritance of the Bodhi relics. Matters, now the trouble arises.
The Kasyapa sect, which emphasizes joining the world, is the most powerful, and its physical masters far surpass the other two sects. Today, the highest military and political officer in Yunling Province, the Grand Duke of Skanda, is from the Kasyapa sect.
All kinds of things in the secular world have long been beyond the eyes of these ascetic monks, but the secret treasures of Buddhism that involve the promotion of life levels are different. The Kasyapa sect used extremely strong means to suppress the other two major factions and wanted to seize the Bodhi relic. For a time, there was a bloody storm. The entire Yunling Province fell into turmoil.
It was not until the intervention of the Taishu Association and the arrival of disciples sent by Longyang Temple, who was also a Buddhist, that the dispute was stopped. However, the Bodhi relic was passed on to a disciple of the Luozha sect by the elder of the Moko sect. The other two major factions are different. They focus on physical training, not the spiritual power that Buddhism majors in...
