Miaohua is a Zen monk. Different from the warrior monks, the warrior monks do not have to observe the precepts. They only need to make the wine and meat pass through the intestines and stay in the Buddha's heart. They can even kill when necessary.

The cultivation method of Zen monks mainly relies on meditating, chanting sutras and thoroughly studying Buddhist scriptures.

Once a Zen monk has achieved success in practice, his words and deeds can affect the people around him.

If a Zen monk keeps the precepts, others will keep them; if a Zen monk breaks the precepts, others will break them;

If a Zen monk is good, others will be good; if a Zen monk is evil, others will be evil;

The great thing about Zen monks is that they can even use their own precepts to regulate others and prevent others from being controlled!

Seeing Abbot Haixin trembling with fear and unable to speak, Zen Monk Miaohua lost his patience.

He saluted with the palm of his left hand, Sanskrit sounds came out from his mouth, and uttered a sentence that no one could resist:

"Amitabha! There is no dust in my heart, and I am at ease!"

The golden ripples of Buddha's light spread around, and Abbot Haixin, who was still panicking, instantly calmed down.

He no longer trembled, but clasped his hands together and sat cross-legged in front of Miaohua.

“The poor monk is in trouble.” Abbot Haixin lowered his head and said.

In fact, in terms of seniority, Abbot Haixin should be higher than Miaohua. After all, he is also very old.

But because Miaohua came from Hanshan Temple, which was far beyond the comparison of this small Four Virtues Temple, Miaohua was arrogant in her heart, and Abbot Haixin did not dare to discuss seniority with Miaohua.

Seeing that Abbot Haixin calmed down, Miaohua said again: "Monks do not lie!"

Abbot Haixin became energetic and replied: " So I heard."

Influenced by the precepts of Zen Monk Miaohua, Abbot Haixin now abides by the precepts extremely well. No matter what Miaohua asks him, he will answer truthfully without any lies.

This move can be resisted by those with advanced Taoism, but Abbot Haixin, as a monk in the secular world, is really no match for Miaohua. " Yes, Master."

Monk Chang Ji strode up to Abbot Haixin, clasped his hands together, and asked:

"Where is the Abbot?"

Abbot Haixin replied piously: "I was conquered by a passing master."

A passing master? ConquerAlready?

This answer was obviously beyond everyone's expectations. Monk Chang Ji couldn't help but look at his master, who also raised his eyebrows and became more focused.

　“Where is the difficulty?”

　“Killed by that expert.”

　“What happened? Tell me in detail what the master is like!"

"Yesterday afternoon, we extorted passing pilgrims according to the abbot's request, but we encountered a problem. One of the pilgrims who was blackmailed was a young man. My friend, the benefactor was a profound man and easily subdued the abbot. The benefactor originally wanted to kill the abbot, but when I mentioned the relationship between the abbot and Brother Runan, the benefactor changed his mind. He first accepted the abbot, then lurked in the temple, and waited until If you take action when trouble comes, if you are unable to defeat the benefactor and die in the hands of the benefactor, the benefactor will leave the dust and leave last night."

After listening to Abbot Haixin's answer , several people were even more surprised.

This time they followed Ru Nan’s whereabouts to the Side Temple and were already prepared for a hard fight.

I didn’t expect that Runan would be taken care of by a passing master?

Miaohua winked, and Chang Ji continued to ask for details:

"Did Ru Nan leave anything behind after his death? What are the characteristics of that expert? Or did he say something strange? Where did he go in the end?"

Abbot Haixin answered truthfully: "After Runan died, a Buddha statue fell out of his belly."
< br />When he heard the word "Buddha statue", Chang Ji couldn't hold it back for a moment. He interrupted the other answers that Abbot Haixin had originally prepared and asked: "Where is the Buddha statue?"

"By that expert Taken away."

Miaohua's eyelids twitched, and she felt like a duck that had reached its beak suddenly grew wings and flew away.

They have been pursuing the matter for a whole week, and even made a special trip from Hanshan Temple in Jinling to Huizhou.

Things must start fifty years ago.

Fifty years ago, there was a profound Zen monk in Zhengde Temple named Shi Ming.

The Zen monk Shi Ming was already old at the time. In order to fulfill his great ambition, he divided his Zen mind into two parts, retaining good thoughts and eliminating evil thoughts.

The evil thoughts were sealed by Shiming into a Buddha statue, while the good thoughts were retained in his body. Shiming, who had no more distracting thoughts in his heart, passed away on the spot. His soul went to hell and became the son of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. , his ambition is the same as that of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva - he will never become a Buddha until hell is empty!

After Shi Ming left, the Buddha statue was sealed together with his relics in Zhengde Temple. Until twenty years ago, it was difficult to steal.Taking away the relics, he also took away the Buddha statues.

After a long time, the abbot of Hanshan Temple, Abbot Yansong, suddenly found out seven days ago that the Zen monk had a dream and learned that Ru Nan had stolen the Buddha statue, so he sent Miaohua and five warrior monks. Investigate the matter.

Miaohua was worried about alerting Ru Nan, so she kept observing secretly. Finally, she determined that Ru Nan was alone and helpless when he was in Side Temple, so he chose to take action in Side Temple.

No, Miaohua came with the monks in a menacing manner, ready to catch turtles in an urn.

Guess what?

The turtle was killed by others, and the eggs in the turtle’s belly were also taken away!

I have been pursuing it for so long and spent so much effort, but when I was about to complete it and obtain a great merit, I was overtaken by an unrelated passerby.

Can he not be angry?

If Miaohua hadn’t been a Zen monk, he would have started cursing like a warrior monk.

Miaohua took a deep breath, calmed down, and signaled to Chang Ji to continue asking.

Chang Ji asked the previous question again, and this time Abbot Haixin showed hesitation.

This is not good.

As a member of the Buddhist sect, Hai Xin actually ignored the influence of the precepts and wanted to break the precepts for a stranger?

Chang Ji said coldly: "Abbot Haixin, you don't want others to know that you helped others commit evil, right?..."

Abbot Haixin was in chaos for a while. But he soon adjusted himself, recited Amitabha silently, lowered his head and remained silent.

This was the first time Chang Ji saw someone who could disobey his master's commandments, and there was nothing he could do against Hai Xin.

He looked at Miaohua with pleading eyes.

Miaohua snorted coldly, raised the six-ringed tin staff, and slapped Hai Xin hard on the body!

Abbot Hai Xin was already old and could not withstand such torture. He was immediately beaten to the ground and unable to get up.

His two monk disciples were frightened and frightened, and they all rushed forward to take the beating for Abbot Haixin.

"Monks don't lie. As an old monk, you have read the scriptures in vain for so many years?" Miaohua scolded.

Abbot Haixin stood up tremblingly, still clasping his hands: "Exalted Master did not want to cause trouble at first, but he stayed to take action because he was worried that Side Temple would be retaliated by Ru Nan, and Gao Gao The poor monk was specifically told not to expose his whereabouts... The master is kind to the poor monk, but the poor monk must not repay the kindness with enmity!"

"You can hit you if you want, but the poor monk will neverI won’t say a word. If Buddha and Bodhisattva were here, they would also approve the poor monk’s decision! "

Miaohua heard this and became furious: "Are you worthy to be compared with Buddha and Bodhisattva? Chang Ji, call me! Hit him hard! ”
