After hearing what Yunhu said, I became interested.
Reciting sutras, I have listened to my grandma reciting sutras since I was a child.
I remembered that before I entered the family, I had scared away sneaky people because I recited the "Vajra Prajnaparamita Sutra".
I have some expectations for this challenge.
Lao Mo is concerned about rewards:
"Yunlong Yunhu, what is the reward?"
As soon as the two heard about the reward, they became serious.
Yunlong said excitedly:
"The rewards are awesome!"
"No, it's a Shaolin Tantric magical weapon.
Moreover, it is the Sixty-Four Buddha Patterns and Vajra Demon Subduing Pestle used by the previous Shaolin abbot, Zen Master Wuchen."
As soon as these words came out, several of us could not help but show a hint of emotion.
Since ancient times, Buddhism and Taoism have been one family.
The abbot of Shaolin used the Vajra Demon Subduing Pestle. If you think about it, you will know how powerful this magic weapon is.
No wonder there are so many people gathered here.
It seems that they are all attracted by this reward.
"Old Qin, I have to give this challenge a try no matter what!"
Lao Mo spoke and I nodded.
Xia Qiuxi and Chen Yao also looked eager to try.
Then we started to squeeze in.
Before the challenge, there was an old monk with his legs crossed at his side.
A closer look revealed that it was the kind-hearted "Master of Meditation" we saw when we came here.
Behind the master, stood a young monk.
Put your hands together and remain motionless.
From time to time, introduce the rules to those around you.
In addition, in front of and to the left of Master Meditation is a crystal Buddha.
The crystal Buddha is crystal clear and has a majestic appearance.
Just taking a look at it will give you a sense of peace.
This crystal Buddha is definitely a Buddhist treasure.
It must be the kind that has been exposed to the sound of reciting Buddhist scriptures for a long time and has opened up the true "Buddha nature".
In addition, there is a reward in front of the Crystal Buddha, the Vajra and Demonic Pestle.
Grey-brown, shaped like a cylindrical awl.
It's not very sharp, but it is engraved with Buddhist tantric patterns, a rare Buddhist magic weapon.
This thing is very effective in dealing with special types of evil spirits.
Such as Buddha demons, Buddha ghosts and other special evil spirits.
If you can keep this magic weapon in your pocket, it will be another powerful tool for exorcism.
In addition to these, there is a futon in front, and in front of the futon is a scripture book.
Now there is a disciple from Longhu Mountain who is challenging.
At this moment, he was stammering and reciting the Great Compassion Mantra;
Nawu·Hei Luo Da Na·Duo Luo Yeye, no.
Nan, Nanwu·Asi Ye, no, yeah.
Po Lu, Po Lu is a bird, forget it, I give up...
After just a few words, the Longhu Mountain disciple gave up immediately.
People around him booed.
"I'll come, I'll come."
"Nawu·heiluodana·duoluoye.
Namo Alipo, no, no, how do you pronounce the word brother?"
The onlookers around were amused on the spot.
"Hahaha" laughing next to me.
But I know very well that the Great Compassion Mantra is really difficult to read, and many of the characters are rare characters.
The pronunciation is not easy and difficult to pronounce.
Unfortunately, the challenge failed.
After that, more than a dozen people came on board one after another, without exception, none of them succeeded.
Although I am eager for rewards, the challenge is really difficult.
For some, even though they have recited the Buddhist sutras completely, it is of no use.
The crystal Buddha showed no reaction at all.
At this time, someone raised questions:
"Master Jingxin, there are many fellow Taoists in front of me who have finished reciting the Great Compassion Mantra.
The Crystal Buddha didn't react at all, can this challenge make the Crystal Buddha shine?"
"Yeah? Isn't this challenge a bluff?"
"I see that the crystal Buddha doesn't light up at all! After all, Zen is too ethereal."
"..."
Several young fellow Taoists who had failed in the challenge were complaining there.
The meditation master didn't say a word and didn't even open his eyes.
Only the young Buddhist monk next to him opened his mouth to explain:
"Donor, please don't lie.
If you meet someone with Buddha nature.
Reciting this sutra, Zen thoughts emerge.
The crystal Buddha will naturally have the light of Buddha shining."
A young comrade was still dissatisfied and spoke again:
"Everyone can tell you something, just recite it and give it a try.
If none of you can do it, then this challenge must be a bluff..."
"Yes, yes, Shaolin just makes a gimmick casually, just because he doesn't want people to succeed in the challenge."
"No, look at other sects.
You can be rewarded for any challenge, but this challenge from Shaolin looks like a lie."
"..."
Many people around started to make noises and questioned Shaolin's challenge.
As a result, the young monk narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly recited the Great Compassion Mantra;
"Nawu·heiluodana·duoluoye.
Namo Ajuye, Polu Jiedi Shuobaoluye..."
The sound is not loud, but very clear.
Every word seems to be imprinted in the mind and heart, giving people a strange ethereal feeling.
And, something even more magical happened.
The Crystal Buddha, which seemed to have no reaction before, actually had a swastika symbol appear on its chest, with a slight golden halo appearing.
"Damn it, it's lit, it's lit!"
"It really lights up!"
"Good guy, Shaolin didn't lie!"
"I'll go, this is true, is it really Zen-like?"
"..."
Dozens of people around were surprised.
As a result, the old monk Jingxin who was sitting inside slowly opened his mouth and said:
"Kong Ming."
The old monk spoke, and the young monk who was chanting sutras stopped chanting sutras.
Crystal Buddha, the halo disappears.
Monk Kongming bowed slightly to the old monk Jingxin:
"Uncle Master!"
The old monk Jingxin did not open his eyes, and continued to speak slowly in a low and hoarse voice:
"Aversion is caused by suffering and suffering. Hatred and hatred are the nature. It can hinder the absence of anger and make the nature unstable. The basis for evil deeds is karma. It's good, it's good."
Kongming heard this and said directly:
"Namo Amitabha, my uncle's teachings are correct. Kong Ming violates the precept of anger. How good is it!"
After saying that, Kongming stopped chanting sutras and continued to stand beside him.
I saw it and found it interesting.
This is an eminent monk.
This young monk is definitely a person with Buddhist teachings...
