Acting as a god and Buddha: starting from Guanzi

Chapter 125 Inheritance
"Zhao Daniu, Zhang Quan, Lu Xiaoman, Fang Ba, Zong Zifu, Feng Huai, Xiang Rong, You Jinfeng, Tu Feiyan, Hua Rui, come forward!"

Inside the Guanyin Temple, Meng Yuan stood at the main seat, Miaoyan and Miaole stood on both sides, holding a degree certificate, a monk's robe and incense candles in their hands, and ten disciples stood respectfully in front.

After hearing this, they all came forward. After a year, these children have grown a lot, and Meng Yuan and the other two people also recognized them, and today they decided to fulfill their promise and include them in the gate.

Meng Yuan stepped forward and looked at all the disciples. Their aptitude may not be regarded as the arrogance of heaven, but they are quite satisfactory. If they learn some superior methods, they may be able to cast golden pills in this life, but if not, they may spend their entire lives practicing Qi or building foundations.

But Meng Yuan didn't look at these things either. He had been retreating after returning to the Guanyin Temple after completing the Golden Elixir. While practicing himself, he also comprehended the inheritance of the Ahan Temple and the Buddhist scriptures of the Hengyuan Buddha.

Finally, he initially created a practice method that combines the strengths of various schools and Mahayana Buddhism as the root of his practice. It is also the way of his Bodhisattva practice, called "Maha Pure and Wonderful Method of Great Self-Zai Maha".

It contains the shut-mouth meditation sutra with wonderful words, the great unclean void sutra with wonderful music, and even his heart sutra for saving troubles with lotus flowers. However, if you want to practice, you must understand the true meaning of Buddhism. All scriptures need to be comprehended, not just practiced at will.

This is both a restriction and a protection. For example, Landa Temple is a negative example. Blindly pursuing power and supernatural powers will only lead to evil paths.

The method he created focuses on the wisdom of mind rather than qualifications.

When this method came out, Meng Yuan had many illusions and fell into a boundless illusion. Thousands of demons wanted to kill him, and even the heavenly demons who hadn't appeared for a long time appeared together, but Meng Yuan didn't waver at all. like a rock.

"Little monk, you don't know the harm of this method. Spreading it without authorization will cause great harm. The ancient Hunyuan Dao will be destroyed, not to mention you, hahahaha."

The words of the demon were still in his ears, but Meng Yuan just paid attention to it, and did not shrink back because of its intimidation.

Looking at the ten disciples in front of him, Meng Yuan asked them one by one from left to right if they were willing to join our sect and uphold Samana, and all the disciples said yes.

Meng Yuan nodded, and then he and Miaoyan passed on the monk's robe, rosary, and certificate to everyone. As for the name and shaving, he did not pay attention to this form in Guanyin Temple. As for the dharma title and so on, it is just a nickname, as long as it has a name.

This made the four female disciples extremely happy. Manzhu, who was standing next to her, also looked happy. I am so lucky to have met Master!
Then came the teaching of the scriptures. These days, Meng Yuan has copied many Mahayana classics with his own understanding and wisdom, and stored them in the Tibetan Pavilion. He asked his disciples to choose one and study it carefully. One copy per person.

The disciples were all very happy to finally start practicing, so that they would be able to protect the temple and their master and brothers in the future.

Meng Yuan also explained some simple practice tips to them. This is just a simple method of breathing and exhaling, which can strengthen the body and strengthen the spirit. .

After doing this, the day will pass.

"Haha, seeing them reminds me of the scene when master picked me up and taught me how to practice five years ago. Time really flies by." Miao Le sighed.

Meng Yuan's heart moved slightly: "Second Senior Brother, where did Master come from to come to this town five years ago?"

Miao Le thought for a while: "At sea, I was floating on a wooden board. Master carried Senior Brother across the sea and rescued me."

Meng Yuan didn't know this, so he looked at Miaoyan and said, "Elder brother, do you still remember where master saved you?"

Miao Yan shook his head: "No, memory."

Miao Le on the side also said: "Maybe we were all frightened by something, but I don't remember how I was floating in the sea, where I was at home, and who my last name was."

Meng Yuan nodded. The old monk came from the sea. Could it be that he originally lived in the depths of the South China Sea?
"Tomorrow we will visit Master and report this matter to him. You two brothers, please rest early."

Then the three of them dispersed.

The next day.

All the disciples had panda eyes. It looked like they had stayed up late last night to practice immortality. Miao Le immediately scolded them all.

Meng Yuan smiled and did not plead with his disciples, but turned to look at Zizhu in the courtyard.

You also need to be relaxed and moderate in your practice, not to mention that practicing his method is not something that can be done so recklessly. There is a world of difference between working hard and being the best.

I saw nine purple tender bamboos growing on both sides of the front yard, as tall as a person. The purple body seemed to be carved out of jade, and the sharp leaves were shining with a crystal luster, and there were dewdrops on them. Happy.

Meng Yuan took out a jade bottle, and immediately collected half of the dew with a flick of his hand, leaving the rest for Zi Zhu.

After breakfast, all the disciples performed their duties, and the three men, Meng and Yuan, went out to visit the old monk at Xiaofa Temple.

Meng Yuan flicked his sleeves lightly, and immediately rolled up a beam of escape light, carried the two of them with them, and landed in front of the Xiaofa Temple in a short while.

It still looked like it was in tatters, and nothing seemed to have changed.

Miao Le stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Come in, everyone." The old monk's voice came.

The three of them entered immediately, and saw the old monk sitting cross-legged in the hall with his back to the door.

"The disciple pays homage to the master and tells the master that the ten children left in the temple a few years ago have now entered my sect." Meng Yuan said.The old monk said: "Well, now you are the head of a temple and you can make decisions on your own, so you don't have to come and ask me in the future."

"Master, why don't you come and live in the temple with us, so that the apprentices can show their filial piety."

The old monk shook his head: "I know that as long as you are filial, you cannot leave as a teacher."

The three of them looked at each other, and Miao Le said: "Master, although disciples should not ask about your personal affairs, but now I am no longer a burden that can't help. If there is any difficulty, the disciples should go through fire and water and relieve the master's worries." .”

"It's very gratifying that you have such filial piety to be a teacher, but there are difficulties in being a teacher."

Meng Yuan nodded: "Since this is the case, the disciples will no longer force them, and we will visit Master in the future."

"Well, go ahead and don't worry about being a teacher."

The three of them slowly exited the main hall and came to the outside of the temple.

"Junior brother, you have always been very wise, but do you know what happened to the teacher?" Miao Le asked.

Meng Yuan shook his head. He actually had some guesses about the identity of the old monk after he came back from Ahan Temple, but he didn't ask rashly because it involved the envoy and even the Buddha's mother.

But before he went north to Lanta Temple, the old monk told him in secret that he didn't have to worry about it, and that he would be optimistic about Guanyin Temple, but later, Lanta Temple secretly attacked but failed, and even lost a Nascent Soul Realm, Meng Yuan suddenly felt old The true identity of the monk is even more mysterious.

"Master has practiced for many years. Since he didn't tell us that he has his own reasons, let's go back and cultivate."

Both Miaoyan nodded.

Immediately, Huahong returned to Guanyin Temple, but at this moment, a ray of light flew out from the town, Meng Yuan passed by that person, a faint coercion made all three of them startled, real Yuan Ying?

Fortunately, the other party just glanced at them and disappeared into the sky in an instant.

"When did a real Yuanying master come to the town?" Miao Le asked doubtfully.

"Breathe, evil."

Miaoyan guessed: "I'm afraid it has something to do with the Corpse King Sect."

In the past six months, since the disciples of the Corpse King Sect had a quarrel in front of the Guanyin Temple, they have not had any interactions with each other. They seemed to have really come to retire and practice. They had no worries about the world and stayed in the helm all day long. Even the three people Qingzhu who were originally monitoring them lost interest.

However, Meng Yuan and the others didn't bother to meddle in other people's business. Could it be that others are not allowed to be a salted fish?

After leaving the small Dharma temple, the three of them returned to the temple to continue practicing. However, a few days later, a monk came to argue the Dharma, and Meng and Yuan had to intervene.

Since he became famous in the first battle at Landa Temple, Meng Yuan and Mahayana Buddhism became famous for a while. Of course, the mainstream voice is still criticism and slander.

After Landa Temple became the leader of the Wanfa School, it even regarded Mahayana Buddhism as a heresy, and the temples of the Wanfa School were not allowed to implement it.

This made Guanyin Temple more and more famous. Landa Temple quickly stopped it when it saw something was wrong, but now it is hard to get over it. If anyone can defeat Guanyin Temple, wouldn't he be able to jump up?I did what you didn't!
However, Meng Yuan has maintained a winning streak until now, and this time is no surprise.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and all ten disciples had introduced Qi into their bodies and started formal practice.

It is also the end of the year, and the Sea God Festival is approaching again.

The incense in the Guanyin Temple suddenly increased, and almost everyone in the town came to burn incense every day, begging the Buddha to bless them to pass this year safely, but last year, no one died.

People from nearby villages and towns came all the way to burn incense and lined up directly from the main hall to the mountain gate.

But this day, a big man came one after another, which shocked the pilgrims who were burning incense, and quickly moved away, not daring to stand in front of him, for fear of being slapped to death.

I saw that this man was extremely tall, about one foot, and his body was very strong. The tight clothes revealed that his arms were thicker than a normal person's thighs, and his long hair was like steel needles. He was most afraid of people. What's more, he is carrying an iron pestle almost as big as his own body on his back. It must weigh more than a hundred kilograms?

The man lowered his head and grinned and asked, "Little Master, is the Holy Monk Miao Evil here?"

Even a few disciples rushed into the apse when they saw it: "Master, third master, a lord has come and seems to be looking for you."

"grown ups?"

Meng Yuan, who was preaching scriptures to the pilgrims, was taken aback for a moment, then got up and apologized, then followed his disciples to the front hall, and smiled when he saw the person coming.

"So it's you, Wei Tian."
