Chapter 145 Turns out to be a disciple of Medicine Buddha (Part 1 of 2)

Xiangyun asked: "Master, how should we perform the ceremony of reporting to the ancestor?"

"I don't know much about this. How did you do it before? If there is a ready-made plan, you can refer to it for details."

Xiangyun found a book "Rituals of Ancestor Worship" in the storage bag.

Yan Zixiu looked at it and felt that it was too complicated and required a lot of manpower.

He said: "The ancients said: Respect is not as good as obedience, obedience is not as good as sincerity, and sincerity is not as good as self-confidence. At present, the sect is at a low ebb, and it is better to keep the ceremony simple. The most important thing is sincerity and self-confidence. Let's hold a small reporting ceremony, so that

All mortals in the sect will also participate."

"Respectful, obedient, sincere, confident?" Xiangyun and Lanmeng experienced it carefully. It seemed that each layer was more transcendent than the next.

Xiao Zhaoxia asked: "Brother, the leader, do you still need to be respectful when you are confident?"

"Of course. If you are confident but then disrespectful, that's called arrogance."

Zhaoxia tugged on her pigtails, thoughtfully.

"Elder Xiangyun, of the two stone statues that Zhaoxia went to pray at yesterday, which one is the Patriarch? What is the name of the Patriarch?"

"Master, you actually don't know the name of the ancestor?" Xiangyun asked strangely.

"Should I know? This is my first time here today."

"The founder of our Medicine Master Sect is the King of Medicine. He is the one standing among the two stone statues."

Yan Zixiu felt that he was getting close to the truth, and his heart trembled slightly: "What about the seated statue?"

"It seems that the leader really doesn't understand the Medicine Master Sect very well. The sitting figure is the master of the founder."

"...the ancestor's master, who is that?"

"According to the Patriarch, he is the Medicine Buddha. The Medicine Buddha was the one who imparted the Dharma lineage to the Patriarch in his dream."

Yan Zixiu suddenly realized that it was so! It turned out that the master he met unexpectedly was Medicine Buddha! It turned out that he and the Medicine King were both taught in dreams!

He quickly browsed the relevant scriptures in the Xianfu Sutra Library and found a copy of "The Sutra of the Merit and Virtue of the Original Vows of the Medicine Master Glazed Light Tathagata". After flipping through a few pages, he saw that Medicine Master Buddha had made twelve subtle vows when he was practicing the Bodhisattva path.

He understood more clearly in his heart, no wonder there were twelve towering jade pillars on the sapphire platform when he first entered the Immortal Mansion, no wonder there were twelve Immortal Palace Groups in the Immortal Mansion, no wonder there were twelve gold stars on the Qiankun Ring. Aren’t these all?

I am reminding myself of Master’s twelve great wishes.

Yan Zixiu slapped his forehead, hey, he only focused on doing good things diligently, and he was a little relaxed about studying the inner canon.

At this time, the [Sutra Library] in the Immortal Mansion’s treasure list has been updated:

【Tibetan Scripture Building】

Internal Code Department:

1. This scripture: "The Sutra of Medicine Master Glazed Light Tathagata's Original Vows and Merits"

2. General scriptures: "Huayan Sutra", "Heart Sutra", "Yogi Earth Treatise"

Yan Zixiu silently experienced the twelve great wishes of the Medicine Buddha in his heart, and found that each wish was what he was willing to do from the bottom of his heart, and could also bring temporary and ultimate happiness to all living beings.

Walking with Master, he finally found his own position and felt extremely at ease.

In his spiritual world, there seemed to be some bright companions surrounding him at a moderate distance. Everyone was doing similar things that benefited people while watching each other from a distance.

This means that although he is still an ordinary sentient being, he has also become a member of the Medicine Master Society.

This harvest is really great.

However, this is not easy, because most people follow what others say. Although these people have teachers and Taoist friends in reality, their spiritual world is very lonely. Overall, they show a difficult pattern of working alone.

He said to Wuyou in his heart: "I understand what you and Master mean. What does it mean to tell me directly? I'm not very impressed."

Only when you work hard to find the truth will you cherish it more.

Can the sutras delivered to the door be valued the same as the sutras that went to the West to retrieve them after all the hardships?

Wuyou laughed a few times, looking very pleased and satisfied.

Yan Zixiu thought again, even though hundreds of thousands of years have passed, he and the Lord Medicine King are still senior brothers. He must take good care of his senior sect.

"Master? Master?" Seeing that Yan Zixiu didn't speak, Xiangyun tried to ask.

"Oh? Ah! I just heard you talk about the origin of our ancestor's Dharma lineage, and I was inspired by it, so I was a little distracted." Yan Zixiu explained.

"What does the leader think?"

"To be honest with you, in terms of Dharma lineage, Lord Yao Wang is my senior brother."

The Venerable King of Medicine, who founded the sect hundreds of thousands of years ago, is the senior brother of the leader?! Several people were a little confused.

How should we talk about this generation? Even if one leader is born every thousand years, it still lasts for hundreds of generations.

Although it is bizarre and difficult to imagine, they believe that Yan Zixiu's words are not false.

Not to mention anything else, which one of the Master's Qiankun Ring, Xiangyun Pocket, and Immortal Binding Rope can be easily taken out?

What's more, his benevolence and integrity are obvious to all and admire him?

Yan Zixiu knew that they were in a bit of a dilemma, so he smiled and waved his hand: "It's up to everyone to decide on their seniority. By the way, Elder Xiangyun, what's the origin of these seated and standing statues?"

"The seated statue was erected by the founder of the mountain with his own hands. The mountain peak was also the place where the founder stayed and practiced practice after he obtained the Dharma in his dream. The standing statue of the founder was erected by his descendants after he ascended to heaven." Xiangyun said.

"So that's it. Why don't we go to the stone statue of the Patriarch to have a look and decide on the specific agenda for tomorrow." Yan Zixiu suggested.

"good."

The four of them rode up the four white clouds and reached the middle peak again.

They landed in the square halfway up the mountain, and then walked along the steps towards the stone statue.

Arriving in front of the stone statue, Yan Zixiu arranged his clothes, bowed respectfully nine times to the seated statue of Medicine Buddha, and bowed deeply three times to the standing statue of Medicine King.

One is the master and the other is the senior brother.

Xiangyun, Lanmeng and Zhaoxia all bowed nine times to the two stone statues.

Yan Zixiu did not interfere with them. This was because this was spontaneous respect and gratitude, not forced courtesy.

"Elder Xiangyun, I have some questions. Is the left hand of the Medicine Buddha statue holding something?"

Xiangyun said with some shame: "Yes, the master. The Medicine Buddha statue holds a hali branch in its right hand and a medicine bowl in its left hand. But the medicine bowl was stolen not long ago."

Xiao Zhaoxia remained silent.

"Stolen?! When did it happen?" Yan Zixiu and Lan Meng were a little surprised.

"It's been more than a month, thirty-three days to be exact. The person who came here was very clever, and there was no movement during the theft. It was only when Xiao Zhaoxia presented the offering that the medicine bowl was gone."

Yan Zixiu and Lan Meng looked at each other. Isn't this the moment when the space crack appears?

Is it just a coincidence?

Why is the medicine bowl in the hand of the Medicine Buddha statue here stolen, and a space crack appears over there?

Yan Zixiu activated the time retrieval technique to check, and found that there was indeed a vague figure flying down, taking the medicine bowl from the stone Medicine Buddha statue, laughing a few times, and flew away in the air.

Look at the direction of departure, which is southwest.

His time retrieval technique can clearly see the past of mortals and low-level immortal cultivators, but this time it is actually blurry. This means that the person who came here must have caused some interference.

This person stole something and laughed wildly, but Xiangyun, as a monk at the Golden Core stage, was completely unaware of the whole process. Presumably, this person must be a monk at the Nascent Soul stage or above, or he must have some kind of treasure to hide his aura.

"Elder Xiangyun, what sects of immortality are there in the southwest of us?"

"Did the master see something?" Xiang Yun was feeling ashamed of his incompetence, and he didn't know anything about the missing medicine bowl.

"I have a special method that vaguely traces back to someone who stole the medicine bowl and ran to the southwest."

Since ancient times, life and death are important matters, and peace of mind is the most difficult.
