All Heavens Start with Lu Xiaofeng

Chapter 702 The Buddha sees all living beings as domestic animals, and I see monks as ants

Seven or eight feet away from Yu Liancheng's feet, the terrain sank suddenly, forming an extremely steep cliff.

It is indeed a strange thing that a downward-sunken cliff suddenly appeared in the wilderness, but it was not the cliff itself that surprised Lu Chenjia so much that it was unimaginable.

This cliff is extremely wide, spreading out to the front of the wasteland, the two sides seem to have no boundaries, and then close together at the horizon, forming an extremely wide, deep and deep sinkhole, which is unimaginable for human beings.Even if all three Chaoyang cities were thrown into the sinkhole, it might not be able to fill it up.

And in the very center of the tiankeng stands an extremely majestic mountain.There is no doubt that this is the most majestic and precipitous mountain that Lu Chenjia has ever climbed. Because the sinkhole is too deep, only a very small part of the mountain protrudes from the ground.Among the mountain peaks, there are countless yellow temples looming.

Because of the heavy humidity at the bottom of the tiankeng and the self-generated fog, the majestic mountain peak is shrouded in clouds and mist, and it is completely invisible under the mountainside, as if it has disappeared, just like a suspended island floating in the clouds.

The Hanging Temple really lived up to its reputation.

The tiankeng was covered by fog, and Lu Chenjia's eyesight couldn't see too far.

But because Yu Liancheng wanted her to see the true face of the Xuankong Temple, so she looked through the thick clouds and saw the bottom of the tiankeng.

In the tiankeng, there are layers upon layers of terraced fields. In addition to the terraced fields, there are also gurgling rivers and simple houses.There are many crops growing in the field, and countless dark-skinned and ragged farmers are working. If you scan casually, it is estimated that there are tens of thousands of people.

In addition, there are earth-colored women who are weaving and washing clothes, with an indifferent expression.

Children without labor do not have the vitality and naughtiness of ordinary children. Many of them are looking at the mountain hidden in the clouds and mists, and seem to be chanting something in their mouths.

In this tiankeng, roughly speaking, there are probably at least seven to eight million people, or even millions of people.

Rather than saying that they are human beings, it is better to say that they are serfs, tirelessly enshrining the temple suspended in the air.

"This...this...how is this possible?!"

But anyone who admires the Dharma will be disappointed when they see this scene, just like the great virtuous monks who have visited Xuankong Temple countless times.The Buddha said to save all living beings, but why did he turn a blind eye to the suffering people under his feet?
Lu Chenjia was born in Yuelun Temple, a Buddhist country, and was baptized by Buddhism since he was a child. Like all believers in the world, he regards Xuankong Temple as a holy place and a paradise.

But now, when she actually saw the Xuankong Temple, she felt extremely disappointed...

Perhaps for the monks on the Hanging Temple, it is naturally a world of bliss to enshrine thousands of them with millions of serfs.

But for the millions of serfs below, it is really hell, and for generations, they are not allowed to turn over, from birth to death, they sit and watch the sky.

"What's impossible?" Yu Liancheng said indifferently.

"Yes, but this is for, why?" Lu Chenjia still couldn't believe it: "Why did Xuankong Temple do this?"

"The four unknowable places are holy places for practitioners, and every practitioner needs a huge amount of resources to accumulate, but they themselves have nothing to do with production."

Yu Liancheng's tone was indifferent: "The academy is enshrined by the entire Tang Empire, and the Zhishou Temple collects massive resources from the world by the Xiling Temple. As for the already destroyed Demon Sect, not only can it be plundered everywhere, but it also has the backing of the barbarian tribe.

As for the Xuankong Temple, they showed their compassion and universality, so they couldn't act as unscrupulously as the Demon Sect, and they didn't have the ability to generate huge power like the Academy or Zhishou Temple.So, they imprisoned these millions of serfs, and asked them to provide them with clothing, food, housing and transportation, so that they could practice all day long and understand Buddhism..."

Lu Chenjia was silent.

As a Buddhist believer, she even wanted to become a monk at one time, but now her belief in Buddha has been shaken like never before.
The temples in the mountain peaks appear solemn and peaceful, completely different from the world under the tiankeng.One is the Buddhist kingdom on earth, and the other is hell on earth.

The Buddhist sect claims to be merciful, so the monks living in the Xuankong Temple should be all Bodhisattvas and Buddhas.There are hundreds of thousands or millions of serfs suffering under their feet. How can they sit on the peak and step on the heads of the serfs, how can they meditate, how can they meditate, how can they say "all beings are equal" with peace of mind?
Is there no one to change all this?

Lu Chenjia didn't know that there were many truly compassionate eminent monks in Xuankong Temple who wanted to make changes.But once it changes, the Buddha will collapse, and the serfs below will become at a loss.

What's more, how can a giant like Xuankong Temple be changed by one person?
They couldn't bear it and couldn't manage it, so they left the Xuankong Temple one after another, out of sight and out of mind, but it gradually became their heart disease.For example, Master Huang Yang of the Tang Dynasty, or Master Qishan of Lanke Temple...

"Amitabha." A Buddha's name sounded, and an old and dry voice said: "People outside the donor's place only have a half-knowledge about the Buddhist holy land, so they misunderstand it."

Lu Chenjia turned his head, and saw an old monk with a dark face, shabby clothes, and dust all over his body. He didn't know when he appeared, but he was obviously an eminent monk from Xuankong Temple.

Yu Liancheng didn't answer, and didn't even bother to turn around.

However, Lu Chenjia seemed to have grasped the last straw, and asked hastily, "I have seen the master, but what does this tiankeng say?"

The old monk said leisurely: "Countless years ago, the Buddha opened up the Buddhist kingdom with great power, and built countless temples in the mountains. As for the people below, it is the Buddha who walks in the world, gathers countless sinful people, and cultivates here Let them be grazing, and let them be influenced by Buddhism, so that they can wash away their sins, my Buddha is merciful."

Lu Chenjia said: "But the people under the tiankeng are only descendants of those sinful people. They have no sins? Why do they have to live in this dark place for generations?"

The old monk said indifferently: "The sins of the previous life will be repaid in this life. You will suffer in this life and enjoy in the next life."

"Absurd, what about the afterlife and present life? It's simply nonsense." Yu Liancheng shook his head: "And the Buddha said that people have sinned deeply, so that person is sinful? It's even more nonsense. Then do I say that this Xuankong Temple is the place of sin?" In this country, the monks above are all a bunch of demons. Don’t they want to skin the monks one by one and send them to the Ten Hells?”

"Buddha has great compassion and great enlightenment, how can it be compared with ordinary people?" The old monk shook his head.

"It seems that the Buddha is superior and above all living beings. Whoever the Buddha said is a sin is a sin." Yu Liancheng shook his head and turned around slowly: "Master, do you think I have sins?"

"You are... Jade benefactor?! I didn't expect you to come here." The old monk trembled slightly.

"Hey, old monk, you want to kill me?!"

Yu Liancheng frowned slightly.

In the world, there are many people who know him.

But Yu Liancheng noticed that when the old monk saw his face, there was an undisguised killing intent flashing across his expression.

The wrinkles on the old monk's face gradually loosened, but the killing intent became stronger and stronger: "The old monk is a lecturer at the Xuankong Temple."

"Master preaching the scriptures..." Yu Liancheng's mind flashed, and he blurted out: "You are the illegitimate son of Daoshi."

The old monk's face darkened slightly, and his peaceful eyes revealed a look of compassion: "My poor child, it is very likely that he will become the next Buddhist sect walker in the future, but it's a pity... Lord Jade, your sins are serious."

"Yes, I killed Daoshi. The sins of the previous life will be repaid in this life. According to your Buddhist theory, this can only show that your son committed too many sins in his previous life."

Yu Liancheng shrugged: "But it looks like he hasn't paid off the sins of his previous life, so I want you, the father, to pay it back together. I'll send you down right now, so that you and your father can reunite and have fun."

"Amitabha." The old monk put his palms together with a dignified expression, and a very pure Buddhist aura suddenly arose spontaneously, turning into a golden mask to protect his whole body.

"Buddha looks at living beings like domestic animals, and I look at monks like ants." In front of Yu Liancheng, an inconspicuous grain of gravel floated up: "Dust and sand can break an ant."

When these words fell, he flicked his fingers, and the grain of gravel shot out, piercing the air ten feet away, and with a sharp whistling sound, it went towards the golden air shield, as if piercing the air with a divine sword.

The gas mask collided with that grain of gravel, and the gas mask rippled, and then a crack appeared, which spread rapidly and shattered, and the dust continued to go towards the old monk.

The old monk knew that the person in front of him was an enemy, so after releasing the gas mask, a golden luster appeared on his right hand, which looked like a Buddha's palm made of pure gold.

The moment the gas mask cracked, the old monk blocked his chest seemingly slowly but extremely quickly.

At this moment, the dust has arrived.

The strength of the sand and gravel is unimaginable, and it is extremely sharp, piercing the void.

Just listening to the crisp sound of "ding", the golden brilliance bloomed, and the old monk's entire palm was pierced, and the dust was still left, piercing the old monk's heart.

"Amitabha……"

With the final sound of the Buddha's name, the old monk crossed his knees powerlessly, his head drooped, and he lost his breath.

Lu Chenjia pursed his lips tightly. This guy is really strong, unbelievably strong.

"Let's go." Yu Liancheng turned around.

"Where are you going?" Lu Chenjia was startled.

"Go and be a Buddha for a while, a real Buddha."

Yu Liancheng stretched out his hand to stop Lu Chenjia's slender waist, and when the other person's face was reddish and was about to scold him, he jumped down the tiankeng, his ears immediately filled with the sound of wind.

……

In the huge sky hidden in the ground, surrounded by clouds and mist, golden temples are looming, so peaceful.

Suddenly, the very indifferent and distant sound of the Buddha's horn sounded from the highest temple. The sound spread far away, and after a while, it spread to the entire Xuankong Temple, and even spread to the Tiankeng below.When the serfs in the tiankeng heard the Buddha's name, they immediately knelt on the ground, terrified.

After a while, dozens of ascetic monks dressed in crimson climbed to the ground along the steep stone path between the cliffs.The head monk, wearing a distinctive monk's uniform and a dignified expression, is the first seven pieces in the Venerable Hall of the Xuankong Temple.

The Buddha name in the Hanging Temple earlier came from the highest position in the temple, the head lecturer.

Before a stick of incense, for some reason, the first Zen seat of the lecture was slightly disturbed, and ordered the monks and soldiers of the Hall of Venerables to see what happened.

Soon, they saw the lecturer.

The lecturer sat cross-legged with a peaceful expression, but Qi Mei could tell that the lecturer had lost his breath.

"who is it……"

Qi Mei frowned slightly, the master preaching scriptures is very powerful, and there are not many people in the world who can kill him.More importantly, there were almost no signs of fighting in the surrounding area, that is to say, the lecturer could be killed by the opponent in an instant, and he didn't have much power to resist.Moreover, the method of killing was very strange, and no scars could be seen from the outside at all.

"Go and check the body of the preacher." Qi Mei waved his hand, and asked a monk who was proficient in autopsy to come forward and inspect the body of the chief lecturer.

The monk stepped forward, narrowing his eyes slightly, smelling a trace of blood, and stretched out his two palms, intending to untie the clothes of the lecturer, and examine carefully.

"Well, wait, don't do it!!" Qi Mei suddenly had an unexpected premonition in his heart, and even caught a trace of the remaining sharp sword energy from the air, and shouted.

However, he was a bit slow in drinking, the monk's fingertips had already touched the clothes of the preacher.

The sword energy carried by a grain of flying sand in Yulian City is unimaginable, and it cannot be resisted by a master like a preacher.With only a small amount of strength, the air mask was broken, the palm was pierced, the chest was pierced, and a large part of the sword energy was contained in the flying sand.Now, the flying sand is thrown into the body of the lecturer, forming a balance with the body of the lecturer.

And when the monk's fingertips touched his clothes, the balance was broken.As a result, streams of tyrannical energy gushed out from the body of the lecturer, as sharp as a sword.

In an instant, amidst the screams, the monk was turned into a meat paste by countless sharp forces.

And these vigor continued to rush towards Qimei and the others, Qimei and a group of monks quickly dispersed, but in the end three monks could not dodge and were cut into pieces.

"Such sword energy, I'm afraid even Liu Bai can't do it, who is it..."

Qi Mei's face was gloomy. He didn't even know the identity of the intruder, and he had already lost three capable subordinates.He looked at the body of the preaching master again, and stepped forward in big strides.

"Seven heads, be careful..." The rest of the monks still had lingering fears.

"It's okay."

Qi Mei stood in front of the body of the preacher, touched it with his fingers, and the body began to turn into ashes, and there were several colorful relics in the ashes.

The previous sharp energy has completely poured out.

The body that was first injured by the strength was the body of the master who preached scriptures.

Qi Zhi lowered his eyes, looking at the relic that could not be incinerated by any flames, there were already several cracks at this time, and he couldn't help but look more serious.

"It's not Liu Bai. There are only a few people in the world who can achieve this step, even above the five realms, such as masters and temple masters, but they are not good at swordsmanship. Maybe... it's Yu Liancheng..."

Not long after, a distant bell sounded from the highest temple.

Then the ringing of the bells was passed down layer by layer, one big bell after another was ringing one after another, and finally a thousand and eight bells rang at the same time, resounding through the world.

In the Hanging Temple, a great enemy is approaching.
