"Baiyun Temple?"

When the middle-aged monk heard this, he looked Lu Zheng up and down, and then saw the five women who got out of the car with him.

Middle-aged monk, "..."

Lu Zheng, "..."

"Outer disciple." Lu Zheng added.

"Amitabha! The poor monk is helping me." The middle-aged monk made a salute and said, "Since we are fellow practitioners, it is natural for us to come in. Fahua Temple is welcoming guests to discuss Dharma today, and there are also fellow practitioners who happened to come to watch the ceremony."

After a pause, Monk Jineng asked again, "I don't know what my friend said, Master Dejie of this temple..."

"Zen Master Dejie traveled around the world, and I was lucky enough to see his face and be saved by the Zen Master. I was also lucky enough to collect three copper coins to cast the Buddha's golden body, so the Zen Master invited me to come and offer incense to the Buddha."

What Lu Zheng was talking about was Zen Master De Jie taking action to take over the thousand-year-old corpse king. Although he could deal with it, it would definitely not be easy.

"Amitabha, that's how it is." Monk Jineng proclaimed the Buddha's name, "If that's the case, Fahua Temple and fellow Taoists are naturally destined.

But today, monks from the Brahma Temple in the Western Buddhist country came to the temple to discuss Taoism. There are many things to do, but it is difficult to entertain Taoist friends. I wonder if they intend to enter the temple or come back another day?"

"Can I still enter the temple today and watch the masters discuss Taoism with those monks from the Western Regions?" Lu Zheng asked.

"Of course you can." Monk Jineng nodded and said with a smile, "There are other Taoist friends in the temple. The temple is closed to thank guests and does not accept pilgrims. It is just because the Buddhist words have magical powers and can easily affect the souls of the people. For strangers,

But it’s okay.”

"That's it..."

Lu Zheng nodded, "In that case, since you are here, I also want to see the scene of the eminent monks of your temple defeating the Buddhist countries in the west."

Monk Jineng smiled understandingly, then called a young monk and asked him to take Lu Zheng and his party into the temple and to the Main Hall to observe the ceremony.

Lu Zheng returned the favor and then led a group of women into the temple.

The people around did not make trouble because of this, and those who were close also heard the conversation between monk Jineng and Lu Zheng, and knew that Fahua Temple encountered enemies. This matter was not something that ordinary people like them could get involved in.

Lu Zheng and a few others followed the young monk in front of him, and soon went up the mountain from the mountain gate and entered the gate of Fahua Temple.

As soon as you enter the gate, the scent of sandalwood becomes stronger instantly, and every word of Buddha's words is heard, word by word, in everyone's ears.

"It's the senior disciple who is discussing the Dharma." said the young monk leading the way.

Lu Zheng nodded, and then a glittering Golden Palace appeared in the sea of ​​consciousness of Lin Wan and Jing Qianyu's souls, helping them suppress the souls that were tempted by the Buddha's voice and were about to move.

The other three women don't need to be taken care of.

"Good fellow, is this a discussion of Tao or a battle of wits?" Lin Wan asked, smacking her tongue.

"Fighting with Dharma only targets Buddhism, while discussing Taoism targets the mind of the Tao. The most dangerous place is more dangerous than Dharma fighting."

Shen Ying held Lin Wan's arm and explained, "Lu Lang and I once participated in a Buddhist discussion. On one side were the monks from Rizhao Temple, and on the other side were the monks headed by Daliuli Temple. They were both of the younger generation and were already very mature.

It’s dangerous.”

"What was the final result?" Lin Wan asked.

"It doesn't matter who wins or loses." Shen Ying said, "But the opponent is the top master of the younger generation of Da Liuli Temple. If Guangyue doesn't lose, he has already won."

After all, Guangyue is not the first person among the younger generation in Rizhao Temple.

As they talked, they crossed several courtyards and arrived at the Main Hall in the middle of the temple.

In the square in front of the Main Hall, hundreds of monks from Fahua Temple are sitting cross-legged.

The middle door of the Main Hall is wide open.

In the front of the hall, there are more than a dozen monks wearing yellow robes, ranging in age from old to middle-aged and young. They are monks from Fahua Temple.

On the east side of the hall, there are more than 20 monks wearing bright yellow robes, but with slightly different clothing styles. They should be from Brahma Temple.

On the west side of the hall, there were more than a dozen people sitting scattered, including monks and Taoists, old and young, men and women.

The point is, Lu Zheng also knows two of them.

It turned out to be Chunyang Palace Lin Yi Zhenren and Li Lingyu whom they hadn't seen for several years.

"Little friend Lu, Miss Shen, Miss Liu." Master Lin Yi greeted via voice transmission.

"Brother Lu! Sister Shen!" Li Lingyu can also transmit sounds.

"Zhenren Lin, Lingyu."

At this time, an eminent monk from Fahua Temple was giving a lecture in the hall. Lu Zheng took a few girls to the west side of the hall quietly, found some futons, and sat next to Lin Yi Zhenren.

"Why are you also at Fahua Temple?"

"Lingyu's cultivation has grown too fast and his state of mind cannot keep up. Take him for a walk in the world of mortals." Master Lin Yi said through a message.

Lu Zheng:???

Looking back, Lu Zheng subconsciously squeezed Li Lingyu's shoulders, only to realize that he had been practicing Taoism for hundreds of years.

Lu Zheng couldn't help but be stunned. Even if he was born with a Taoist body, his speed was still a bit fast. It was definitely faster than his speed back then.

"Therefore, one after another with pure thoughts, he attained samadhi, and he became his disciple, Amitabha Buddha."

At this moment, an old monk from Fahua Temple in the middle finished his sermon, chanted the Buddha's name, and looked blankly at the people to the east.

"Senior brother, the Dharma is profound, and the poor monk admires it. But in this way, how can we explain Ananda, the four empty heavens, the annihilation of body and mind, the appearance of fixed nature, no karma, fruit, and form, and the end from now on?"

Among the monks at Brahma Temple, an old monk with a tall nose and deep eyes asked a question indifferently.

"Amitabha, this is easy. Have you never explained the eighth volume of the Sutra?" the old monk of Fahua Temple said with a slight smile.

Then there are some words that are difficult and obscure and not particularly understandable.

Although Lu Zheng has practiced "Fahuatai Sakyamuni's Prajna Heart Sutra", Lu Zheng still hasn't read much about Buddhist thought classics.

But compared to the last time he couldn't understand anything at Jiming Temple, Lu Zheng finally understood what the old monk was talking about this time.

And he could clearly see that it seemed that the old monk from Fahua Temple had the upper hand, because the more he spoke, the uglier the face of the old monk from Brahma Temple became.

Sure enough, after the old monk finished speaking, the monk from Brahma Temple retreated and said nothing.

Then, another old monk from Fahua Temple spoke a Buddhist verse about Western Dharma.

Buddhist Dharma discussion consists of three questions and three answers. After the questions and answers, the subject switches sides and continues, for a total of six rounds.

It consists of three questions and answers and six rounds, which make up the Nine-Rank Golden Lotus Dharma Assembly.

Before Lu Zheng came, two rounds had passed. Fahua Temple had just won the third round, but in the fourth round, a middle-aged monk from Brahma Temple defeated an old monk from Fahua Temple with his mouthful of lotus flowers.

The Nine-Rank Golden Lotus Dharma Assembly will not end until the sun is three poles high and the time is almost midnight.

Although neither Fahua Temple nor Brahma Temple clearly stated the specific outcome, the onlookers could also see it.

Three to three, another tie!
Chapter completed!
