As Xuan Bei led everyone to the inner room of Prajna Hall, several old monks filed in after a while.
This time, the inner room was packed to the brim, but even so, except for the greetings from the monks, the whole room was still as quiet as a bird.
After a while, as the last old monk walked into the room, Xuan Bei opened his eyes.
At this moment, the light in his eyes was focused, as if he had recovered from his sadness. I saw him looking around the room solemnly, taking in everyone's expressions, and then pointed at Huikong and introduced
"This is our young disciple Huikong. This time we went to Xiaowanzhong and encountered an extremely difficult thing."
After the introduction, he turned to Huikong and said, "Huikong, why don't you explain in detail to all the masters and uncles the various situations you have encountered these days."
Following Xuan Bei's instructions, Huikong stepped out from the crowd, bowed to him and said, "Yes!" Then he straightened up and told the old monks what he had told Xuan Bei before.
This time Huikong spoke in more detail, and there were even other monks adding to it. Coupled with the testimony of Saint Youping, I kept talking for several hours before finally stopping.
The more the eminent monks heard, the more surprised they became. They didn't expect that they were just arresting an evil traitor, and with the Wenxin Pearl in hand, the monks had already surrounded Xiaowan City like an iron barrel. In the end, they actually let the evil traitor be killed. Ran.
Not only that, everyone didn't expect that this was not the end. When they heard that Huijian passed away and that the Wenxin Pearl recognized someone else after successfully transcending the tribulation, they all felt as if they were just hearing a fairy tale.
After Huikong finished speaking, he was the first to kneel down on the ground and bowed to all the eminent monks.
"My disciple is ignorant and has many obstacles, and his own cultivation is not enough. As a result, he is unable to eliminate demons and defend the way, and he is unable to save his senior brothers from emergencies. Furthermore, he has made the master sad. This is really a heinous crime. I still ask the master and all my uncles to punish me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he knelt on the ground with cheers and cheers behind him. Every monk who came back from Xiaowan City looked sad and said loudly, "Please punish me, the leader and all the masters and uncles!"
Huikong knelt down, but Xuanbei couldn't be the first to express his stance. Sitting next to him was Master Xuannian from the Discipline Academy. This matter also fell under the jurisdiction of the Discipline Academy, so he put his hands together and asked Xuannian.
"Junior Brother Xuannian, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Xuannian sat aside and listened for a while, already knowing what he was talking about. He considered the precepts in his mind before holding on to Amitabha's teachings.
"Senior Brother Xuanbei, based on what I heard, even if these disciples have their faults, it is not their own fault."
"So junior brother feels that not only should they not be blamed, but they should also be comforted and urged to practice diligently in the temple."
"It's just that the Wenxin Bead was lost in their hands, but this has to be punished. But this matter is also because the Wenxin Bead chose its own owner, so Junior Brother feels that if the two items are added together, a light punishment is enough."
The Discipline Academy itself is in charge of punishments, and Xuannian is an elder in the academy and is very familiar with the temple laws. Therefore, Xuannian's words were upright and fair.
Xuan Bei was waiting to answer, when Xuan Jing on the other side of him answered:
"Senior Brother Xuannian's words are wrong. I think that these nephews not only have no faults, but also have merits!"
"Especially the nephew Huineng, who was injured several times, and it can be said that he has tried his best. And the nephew Huijian, who even risked his life in order to overcome the tribulation of Wenxinzhu, these are all tragic things!"
"For me, Leiyin Temple, as long as we are not afraid of the enemy, but do our best in the face of a strong enemy, I think we should not be too harsh on even a momentary mistake."
"So Junior Brother feels that even if there is a punishment, the most they can do is face the wall in the Extreme Night Cave for three months to serve as a warning."
After hearing this, all the monks were moved in their hearts. Although this Extreme Night Cave is an extremely terrifying place, those who enter must use their kung fu at all times to resist the extreme night chill inside.
But precisely because of this, many monks from Leiyin Temple regard this place as an excellent place for body training. Even today, if you want to get a chance to enter the hole, you still need to exchange for merit.
Therefore, when the monks heard that Xuan Jing was going to treat this place as punishment, they couldn't help but raise their eyebrows. This is not a punishment, it is almost a reward!
However, everyone also understood in their hearts that Xuanjing was the elder of Yaowangyuan. In his life, he was dedicated to saving lives and healing the wounded, and hanging pots to help the world. Therefore, he treats his disciples the most generously, which is not surprising.
Xuan Nian was an upright man. Amitabha said to Xuan Jing, "But it was a big mistake for them to lose the Pearl of Questioning. Junior Brother, have you ever thought about it, if we don't know how to handle things, how can we convince the public?"
When Xuan Nian said this, everyone nodded slightly, feeling that this was the right principle. Even Xuan Jing frowned, feeling that it was difficult to argue with Xuan Nian's words.
Seeing that the two elders were arguing, Elder Xuanku, the dean of Bodhi who bowed to Xuannian, spoke up.
"This punishment can wait for now. The poor monk feels that something is quite strange. That is, why did the Wenxinzhu suddenly run away and recognize an outsider as his master for no reason?"
"It makes sense to say that the Heart-Questing Pearl was worried about being taken away by demons from outside the territory, so it had to recognize its owner. But why did it have to recognize an outsider when there were so many monks there?"
"Could it be that this bead is in my Leiyin Temple and has some resentment towards my temple?"
Xuan Bei pondered and said
"Junior Brother Xuannian is right. Even if the soul of this casual cultivator did not return to his shell at that time, it would be easier to recognize him as his master."
"But there are so many disciples like me. If this Wenxinzhu says something, everyone will definitely not guard their hearts and prevent them from recognizing their master. This reason seems far-fetched indeed!"
Saint Youping was sitting aside because she was invited by Huiyuan and others to testify. The old monks were surprised to see this, so they stood up, saluted everyone, and then said to Xuan Bei
"Master Xuanbei, based on my impression of being there and looking back now, is it possible that this Qian layman was clear about the problem and that's why the Wenxin Pearl moved his heart?"
"You must know that we were waiting in its Asking the Heart Dojo. It can be said that we were retreating steadily, and even Senior Brother Huijian lost his life because of it. But it seems that this casual cultivator has a deep knowledge. Although the questions and answers are mixed with Buddhism and Taoism, the question about the Asking the Heart Pearl But it was hard for him."
After hearing this, the old monks looked at me and I looked at you, but they still had expressions of disbelief on their faces. Although Huikong had introduced it before, this time Saint Youping solemnly proposed it again, but everyone couldn't help but re-evaluate this possibility.
So Xuan Bei's face moved, he clasped his hands towards You Ping and asked, "Amitabha, holy lady, do you think this casual cultivator's knowledge is even more advanced than yours?"
Saint Youping lowered her head in shame and said, "Monks don't lie and ask questions about the dojo. This little girl finally knows what it means to have people outside the world and heaven outside the world."
This time, the expressions of the old monks were even richer.
You must know that Saint Youping is one of the representatives personally selected by the Dharma King to come to Leiyin Temple to participate in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Conference. Learning and martial arts are naturally a temporary choice. Unexpectedly, she would directly admit that her knowledge is not as good as that of a casual cultivator.
Xuan Nian sat aside and asked, still a little worried.
"I still feel that everything is too much of a coincidence. Could it be that this is a hidden gem in the ocean, and such a good seedling has really fallen into the outside world? Is there anything fishy about it?"
Sitting under Xuan Bei is Master Xuan Ben of the Sutra Pavilion. As he listened, his eyes shone with an extremely wise light. I saw him saying quite excitedly
"Is this really possible, or is it something else? Instead of guessing here, we might as well reach out and test it. Then it will all be clear."
The speaker on the other side was Master Xuanwen of Bodhidharma Academy. He also looked interested and said:
"This matter is indeed a bit strange. Judging from the situation when Wen Xinzhu suddenly went through the tribulation in Xiaowan City, since everyone was unprepared, the original possibility of success was less than 30%."
"Especially when it comes to the Heart Tribulation level, all of you brothers know how unpredictable and unpredictable it is. Even if I wait to take action, I have to be cautious, fearing that if I make the slightest mistake, all my previous efforts will be wasted."
"I didn't expect that this time Wenxinzhu would overcome the tribulation, but a casual cultivator would directly prove its mind and help it successfully overcome the tribulation. If this is the case, I think there is no reason why Wenxinzhu chose him."
"It's just whether this person is really so wise, or has a lot of wisdom, or is just being mysterious. I think that if Senior Brother Xuanben and I test it together, we should be able to get an answer."
When Xuan Bei heard that Xuan Wen was willing to take action, he couldn't help but nodded slightly, pondered for a while and said to Huikong
"Let's write down how to punish him for now. Tomorrow, you can invite the casual cultivator here, and you can also be there to bear witness."
"After the two uncles test the casual cultivator, we will decide together on how to punish him."
After saying this, all the monks shouted Amitabha Buddha together before they dispersed.
