Taiqing Sword

Chapter 253, the other side of the heart

The old monk glanced at Suixin, his eyes were like ice hockey pucks, shooting a cold light, Shangguan Jinghong frowned slightly, it seemed that this old monk didn't like Suixin very much?How could the same law sect do this?
The old monk turned his head and looked at Shangguan Jinghong again: "Benefactor, since the last time I left, I have missed you so much. When will I come to the Sutra Pavilion again? I am really lonely by myself."

Shangguan Jinghong smiled: "Senior's words are serious, right? There are so many disciples in Luzong, how can senior be lonely?"

The old monk curled his lips: "Hmph, there are quite a few disciples, and there are very few who can talk. In front of the old monk, there is nothing but flattery. How can the old monk not know their thoughts after living such a long life? But I just want the old monk to point me in the right direction.” The old monk deliberately glanced at Suixin, then quickly lowered his head, the old monk continued: “Unfortunately, the old monk is old and has long given up the idea of ​​accepting disciples. , I didn’t catch my eye either.”

Shangguan Jinghong smiled awkwardly, listening to the old monk seemed to be telling Luzong's family affairs, should you listen to it yourself?Suixin is still standing here, if he doesn't listen, but the old monk said to himself: "Senior, there are many people with outstanding aptitude in the Lvzong, how can you not look down on any of them?"

The old monk seemed to be waiting for Shangguan Jinghong's words: "Bah, Amitabha, sins, qualifications? Even a fool, I can make him a master, what is talent? What I said is the heart of Buddha! , I have already lost my Buddha heart!" The old monk shook his head and sighed.

Shangguan Jinghong wanted to slap himself hard a few times, but he was sloppy, why did he ask this if he had nothing to do.

"Uncle Master, why don't we go into the main hall to talk?" Suixin finally couldn't help smiling coquettishly in front of the old monk.

The old monk laughed: "Alright, I haven't been in this hall for a long time, I wonder if I can still see people clearly now!"

Shangguan was stunned for a moment, and said inexplicably, "How do you say that?" After he finished speaking, he immediately regretted it, damn it, why is he so owed.

Sure enough, the old monk continued: "I went there once many years ago, and the atmosphere was smoky. If there is no change, wouldn't it be impossible to see people clearly now?"

Looking at Sui Xin's ugly face, Shangguan Jinghong felt embarrassed, but also had a little joy in his heart, thinking of the conditions that Sui Xin threatened him to agree to him at the beginning, and seeing that Sui Xin dared not say a word today, how could he be unhappy?

I saw that Sui Xin's face was extremely ugly, but the old monk said to himself: "I think you are not bad, how are you, are you interested in coming to Lvzong?"

Shangguan Jinghong waved his hands again and again: "Senior, don't make fun of me. I have an irresolvable hatred with Buddhism now, how can I join the Law Sect?"

The old monk raised his eyebrows lightly: "Oh? Are you talking about the Xingzong's Zhonglitu? How can he represent the entire Buddhist sect?"

"The ten sects of Buddhism are all prosperous, and they share the same spirit. I also fought against other sects of Buddhism before." Shangguan Jinghong laughed and cried.

The old monk smiled: "Really? This Zhonglitu has a lot of face, I guess he should be looking for someone from the Zen sect?"

Shangguan was stunned for a moment: "How does senior know?"

"Hehehe, it's not difficult to guess. Zen has always claimed to be the first sect of Buddhism, and it wants to have a hand in any matter of other sects. Otherwise, it is not Zen. Zhong Litu is kind-hearted and knows how to use Zen. How about it? Do you suffer? small?"

Shangguan Jinghong shook his head: "That's not true, the Zen people left without doing anything."

The old monk was taken aback: "No way? This is not like Zen's way of doing things, at least it has to shock you."

"Senior, it's because some of my friends are Zen Buddhists who helped me intervene, so I didn't cause too much trouble."

"Divided? Hehehe, you are lucky. You probably met people from Bodhiyuan. In the entire Zen sect, they are probably the only ones who can tell right from wrong."

"Bodhi Court?" Shangguan Jinghong suddenly felt a little dizzy. He knew about Buddhism before, and then he heard about the ten sects of Buddhism, and now he came out of Bodhi Court again: "Senior, is there such a fine division between each sect?"

The old monk nodded: "Well, that's right, the relationship between the chiefs of the precepts courtyard, the Bodhidharma courtyard, the Bodhi courtyard, the Arhat hall, etc., are not very harmonious. The great mercy of helping the world and saving the people is not worthy of the name of other institutes. Hmph!"

Shangguan Jinghong frowned slightly: "So that's the case, if the senior didn't tell me, the junior wouldn't know about it."

The old monk smiled and waved his hands: "These are not secrets, and there is no need to thank them. Oh, this hall is really, almost to the point where you can't see your fingers. Do whatever you want, you can still see clearly what is in front of you." What?" While the old monk and Shangguan Jinghong were talking, they arrived at the main hall, as soon as they entered the door, the suzerain chair was almost made of pure gold, the old monk was like a blind man, his hands kept groping in front of him, as if it was something real Can't see the same.

Sui Xin narrowed his eyes, and stretched out his hand to beckon to a disciple: "Quickly, move this chair away and replace it with a bench."

The disciple immediately followed suit. The old monk looked at it for a while, then nodded: "Well, it's much clearer now, but there are still some places that I can't see clearly. Maybe it's because I'm getting old and my eyesight can't work anymore."

Xunxin waved his hand again: "Empty all the things in this hall and replace them with futons." The disciples under him immediately got busy, and within a short while, the hall was empty, only a wooden bench and a few futons were left. There is nothing outside.

The old monk smiled: "So, the old monk's eyes are much clearer. It turns out that the old monk's eyes are not broken."

As long as it is the old monk's order, he will do everything according to his heart, and apart from a trace of ugly face, there is no trace of dissatisfaction at all. The teacher said.

The old monk said earnestly: "Xinxin, do you know why your suzerain can do it for so long?"

Suixin smiled: "It's all master and uncle, take care of me, otherwise, how can I occupy the position of suzerain for so long with my nephew and grandson's meager skills?"

Buddha Heart laughed loudly: "Follow your heart, that's because you are sincerely thinking about the Vinaya Sect besides being clever, and you are filial enough, and your heart is not bad, but it's a pity that you lack Buddha nature, otherwise Your achievements are far more than that, follow your heart."
