Several masters rushed out without caring about their image.
Gutuo City, the center.
Li Xiaobai stood on the high platform, and more and more people gathered below. Leaflets fell like snowflakes, ensuring that everyone had a copy.
Every citizen's face showed excitement and surprise, while the monks could only stare. As Buddhist disciples, they could not step forward to stop and dismiss the people, otherwise the character they usually established would collapse.
"Where did this man come from and come to the Buddhist realm to preach? Is there something wrong with his mind?"
"I heard that he is the spokesperson of the materialistic god in the world. Recently, the materialistic god has a high prestige among the people. It is best for the young monk and others not to get into trouble."
"I hope Master Baimei can come here quickly. Judging from the mood of the people, I'm afraid they will all become believers in materialism within a day."
The monks whispered among themselves and had nothing to do against Li Xiaobai. If there were no people around, they would definitely swarm him, but with so many believers present, they could do nothing.
Not long after.
A total of five old monks rushed to the scene, walked through the crowd, and walked to Li Xiaobai.
"Amitabha, why does this benefactor preach in Gutuo Temple?"
"Buddhism is a pure place. If you want to communicate with Buddha and Dharma, I will naturally welcome it. However, the donor's move is suspected of poaching the corner of Buddhism, and it may be talked about in the world."
The white-browed old monk clasped his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name.
"Master, I am the leader of the Theistic Religion. You are destined to join our Religious Religion."
"I know you respect the ancient Buddha, but I want to tell you that your ancient Buddha cannot protect you. Not long ago, the gods gathered on the coast. I believe you all know it."
"But you know, the ancient Buddha was at a loss when facing the intruders in the starry sky who had not yet become gods, and could not use his abilities. After that, the four monkeys appeared and suppressed them with one move. After that, the Father God led the twelve gods to the end. , and there is no chance for him to perform."
"Even during this flood disaster, your Buddha has not saved the world. There is no doubt that he has given up on you. He has realized that his own strength is insufficient, and now he is focused on improving himself and preparing for revenge. I dare not say that there will be more in the next thousand years. , he will not bless you."
Li Xiaobai said calmly, he was an eyewitness to the incident, and he spoke clearly and logically, which made the old monk with white eyebrows stunned for a moment.
Although this was half true and half false, Li Xiaobai didn't think it was false. The gods did not care about the common people in the world. Their focus was the same as that of ordinary people. It was still who was stronger than whom. Today you torture me, and tomorrow I will take revenge.
Where do you have time to pay attention to natural and man-made disasters?
"Amitabha!"
"Shuzi, how dare you insult my Buddha!"
"Who are you and who asked you to come!"
An old monk in yellow robes behind the white-browed old monk couldn't help scolding him. When he heard someone slandering the ancient Buddha, he blew his beard and glared in anger.
Saying this in front of the people, isn't this a clear attempt to dismantle his Buddhist sect?
"who I am?"
"You ask me who I am, but you don't know who I am?"
Li Xiaobai shook the flyer and looked at the people around him.
The old monk was furious and wanted to say something, but he saw the white-browed old monk's eyebrows wrinkled, and then his face suddenly changed as if he had thought of something.
The faces of the other old monks also turned pale.
"I don't care who you are. This is Gutuo Temple, the realm of Buddhism. If you go to the realm of Buddhism to preach, it's your fault!"
"And you were disrespectful to Senior Brother Gude, why don't you quickly apologize to Senior Brother Gude!"
When the young monks saw that the old monk was silent, they all spoke indignantly.
Now that the abbot and the masters are here, they have a backbone, and their attitude has become tougher, and they want to stand up for the abbot.
But before they could finish speaking, the white-browed old monk sternly reprimanded: "You are presumptuous, you don't know your true meaning, you speak lies, and you still won't back down!"
As soon as this statement came out, the young monks were confused, the common people were confused, and Li Xiaobai was also confused.
What did he do? Didn't he just want to emphasize his identity as the leader? Why did these old monks suddenly become nervous?
"Amitabha, I didn't know that the donor also studied the Dharma diligently. It was my fault for being abrupt."
"The donor asked me who I was just now. In fact, it was not a question of my ignorance of his identity, but a Zen saying."
"The word "I" can refer to the benefactor, Lao Monk, or the people in this city. After the benefactor finished speaking, he looked at the positions of the people, which just confirms this."
"What the donor wants to say is that the Buddha is you, the Buddha is me, and the Buddha is all living beings in the world. Everyone in the world has Buddha nature. Everyone is a Buddha, regardless of you and me. In this case, the donor comes here to preach, and he is also considered to be teaching his own family. Human beings are also part of all living beings.”
"But the monks in our temple fail to understand clearly that by clinging to this three-acre land and excluding outside sects, they are dividing you and me. This is a sign. It is a pity that I have been an abbot for hundreds of years and have not been able to see through this. , it’s really a sin.”
"I am impressed by the high level of the benefactor. You are worthy of being the spokesperson of materialism. You are destined to be a Buddhist, and everything you do is Buddhist. Can you stay in Gutuo Temple temporarily and discuss Buddhism with me?"
The white-browed old monk looked pious and bowed in a very respectful manner.
At this time, the whole audience was shocked. That short sentence "Who am I" actually contained such a huge philosophy. It was too scary.
As expected of the leader of materialistic theism, even Buddhist Zen principles are at his fingertips. His level is too high!
The old monks didn't look very good. They had just realized this, while the young monks lowered their heads in shame. They didn't even know what they were asking, so they just scolded them. It was so embarrassing.
"Um, no need, just practice the iron fist of materialism together."
Li Xiaobai scratched the back of his head, he couldn't handle Master Baimei's operation.
How could he not know that there was such a mystery in his words, but he soon understood the other party's intention.
"No, donor, the Buddha-nature in you is too strong. Please be sure to explore Buddhism with me. I will personally help you with the missionary work in a few days."
The white-browed old monk's eyes were sincere.
But Li Xiaobai knew that this was the other party's trick. This guy first praised him fiercely, and then pointed out his deep connection with Buddhism. I am afraid that once he leaves with Master Baimei, these old monks will immediately find ways to enlighten themselves and convert him He is too familiar with this routine of becoming a Buddhist.
Today is different from the past. Can you harness our invincible power?
"Well, since I have a predestined relationship with the master, I will teach you about Buddhism. However, Buddhism is not only heard by enlightened monks, but ordinary people can also learn it."
"The path to simplicity is to return to the original nature. This leader hopes that the monks in this city will receive this enlightenment. They line up outside Gutuo Temple and come one by one. Today, our leader will unite the two religions and teach the truth of Buddhism and materialism at the same time. .”
"Master has the world in his heart and will not refuse. Everyone, hurry up and prepare."
