Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

This discussion on Zen was originally just a matter between Li Yi'an and Buddhism.

But after all kinds of publicity, as well as the odds of the game, he was quickly pushed to the top spot. At this moment, everyone was watching Li Yi'an's arrival, and they were all very nervous. It seemed that they had bet a lot of money.

Li Yi'an got off the carriage, and together with Li Changge, took Wanshun's hand and walked over slowly.

"Sir, are you sure?"

Fu Yi waited here early in the morning. Whether their Chongren Department can succeed depends on whether Li Yi'an will win.

"No problem at all!"

Li Yi'an said to himself: "Don't worry, Mr. Fu, I will not let you down."

What Fu Yi was waiting for was his words.

Li Yi'an looked around and saw that Cheng Yaojin and the others were also there, then called Cheng Chumo over and asked them to protect Li Changge and Wanshun, and walked to the stage.

"Husband, come on!"

"Brother-in-law, come on!"

The sisters shouted at the same time.

Cheng Yaojin didn't know what the specific meaning of "come on" was, but he guessed that it was words of encouragement, so he also shouted: "Come on, sir."

Those who bet on Li Yi'an's victory all shouted "Come on!" with great momentum.

Fa Ya was unwilling to be left behind when she saw it, and cheered for Dao Xin. In the eyes of their Buddhists, Li Yi'an was considered a hammer, and he was also worthy of discussing Zen with Elder Dao Xin.

Li Yi'an turned back and gave them a confident smile, turned around and continued walking up the high platform.

"Elder Daoxin, you are early!"

Li Yian said again.

"The Buddha is in the heart, whether it comes early or late, as long as there is a Buddha in the heart, you can practice at any time."

Daoxin slightly opened his eyes, nodded and said.

"I am completely different from the elder. I have never had a Buddha in my heart, and it is impossible to cultivate a Buddha."

Li Yi'an asked: "Can the elders start?"

"When I came up from Tanyue, it had already started."

Daoxin nodded and said: "The poor monk didn't think about it. The incident will be known to everyone. This runs counter to the Buddha."

A large part of the reason why this happened was Li Yi'an, but he said nonchalantly, "A pure heart is a Buddha!"

Daoxin smiled slightly and said: "Amitabha, the poor monk can see that Tanyue Buddha is very strong, so the poor monk will not be polite."

He thought for a while, then said again: "Tan Yue, what is xinxing?"

"don't know!"

"Why is the Buddha the mind?"

"don't know!"

"What is Buddha?"

"I still don't understand!"

Hearing Li Yi'an's answer, the onlookers were stunned, especially Cheng Yaojin and the others.

They didn't know how much money they spent in it, but Li Yi'an couldn't understand the three questions, which made their blood pressure soar and their heartbeat speed up.

"Sir, even if you don't understand, you can answer it casually!"

Qin Qiong said anxiously.

"Sir, you don't understand Buddhism, but you can answer it with Dao, you can't say you don't understand!"

Changsun Wuji was even more anxious.

As for Cheng Yaojin, he didn't speak, if it wasn't for Yuchi Jingdala, he would have jumped on it and kicked Daoxin over.

"But I really don't understand!"

Li Yi'an said innocently.

"Hahaha……"

Fa Ya was the first to get excited, laughing so much that tears could not help but burst out of his eyes, and said excitedly: "I thought Li Yi'an was so powerful, so he is a person who doesn't understand anything, and dares to discuss Zen with Elder Daoxin, you I don't feel ashamed, and I also feel that Buddhism is ashamed by you."

The other monks laughed when they heard Fa Ya like this, and they immediately agreed, their attitude was unreasonably presumptuous, as if Li Yi'an was doomed to fail, and everything they lost in the Buddhist temple would come back.

"I don't understand, so Li Yi'an, you really don't understand anything!"

Lu Yulin also laughed loudly, feeling that he was hit on the wrong side, and then cupped his hands at Changsun Wuji and the others: "Uncle Changsun Guo, thank you for your acceptance this time, haha..."

Just now, his heart was in his throat, but now he can completely let it go, how comfortable it is!

"Lu Yulin!"

Seeing the other party mocking her so much, Zhang Gongjin couldn't help it, and was about to do something, but was stopped by Qin Qiong.

"Why, do you still want to play tricks after losing money?"

Lu Yulin said proudly: "When you placed your bet, you signed it and recorded it, but if you want to play tricks, I can't do anything about it. After all, you have a lot of people. Are you right, Prime Minister Pei?"

Pei Ji nodded slightly and said: "There is indeed no way, but doing so will tarnish the reputation of the imperial court, I hope you can be more cautious!"

Daoxin was also stunned for a moment, Li Yi'an was not like this yesterday, why didn't he understand it today, and asked again: "Why doesn't Tanyue understand?"

Li Yi'an said with a smile: "I haven't learned it, so of course I don't understand it. I have to understand it with my heart. What I understand may not be the same as Elder Daoxin's, but I never thought about it, so of course I don't understand it."

Daoxin recalled this sentence, and asked: "Yesterday Tanyue proposed that the purity of the heart is the Buddha, and the Buddha is the heart. How can this be explained?"

"This is also very easy to explain!

Li Yi'an took out a prepared piece of paper from his body, handed it to him, and said, "Elder Daoxin, after reading these eight Buddhist verses, he understands my nature, how Buddha enlightens, and how Zen enlightens. , and even allow you to go one step further!"

"As far as the current Buddhist school is concerned, most of those monks don't know how to chant and cultivate Buddha, let alone mind. I believe that many monks in the audience may not be able to explain the word "mind". "

He continued: "I hope that Elder Daoxin can understand why I must propose to rectify Buddhism after reading it."

Daoxin looked up at Fa Ya and the others. They didn't seem to be practicing Buddhism at all, and he couldn't help agreeing with Li Yi'an's thoughts in his heart.

Thinking of this, he opened the note and looked at it. His half-closed eyes suddenly widened, and he stood up excitedly, pondered for a long time, and clasped his hands together.

"Amitabha!"

Everyone was stunned by Daoxin's behavior, what happened?That's why Daoxin was so excited.

They couldn't see the note, but Daoxin's confusing behavior was definitely related to the note to a large extent.

"Li Yi'an, what did you show Elder Daoxin?"

Falla spoke loudly first.

"Did you threaten Elder Daoxin?"

Lu Yulin didn't know why, but felt a little nervous, feeling that something was wrong.

Li Yi'an ignored them and just looked at Dao Xin.

Daoxin said slowly: "The body is a bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror stand. Always wipe it diligently so as not to stir up dust."

"There is no tree in Bodhi, the mirror is not a stage, and there is nothing in it, where can it cause dust."

The voice came out melodiously, the content of course came from Li Yi'an's note, and it was also the reason why he felt that he would win.

Most of the monks in the audience didn't really know how to practice Buddhism. When they heard this Buddhist gatha, they couldn't understand the meaning of it for a while. Only Hongren, who was beside Daoxin, looked thoughtful.

"Amitabha, the poor monk lost!"

Daoxin bowed his hands and said, "Tanyue's Buddha nature is far better than that of the poor monk. This Zen mantle is more suitable for Tanyue than the poor monk. The poor monk wants to pass it on to Tanyue!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the field was stunned.

Daoxin not only conceded defeat, but also passed on the mantle of Zen to Li Yi'an, a person outside of Buddhism.

how can that be!
