Chapter 949: Authority, Bodhi Island

"Goodness."

Master Huai Kong put his palms together.

"So free and easy."

Shan Ying and Qu Qu Zhaoxue were unwilling to move their steps, their eyes shining, both feeling moved.

The four-grid charcoal drawing, simple objects and words, actually gave people a free and easy heart.

Livestock are like this.

How are people different from livestock? Why do they need to be different? What do they need to be different?

Liang Qu wiped off the black ash on his hands. He lived in Yixing Town, Pingyang Prefecture for seven years, ate countless treasure fish, changed the small mud house into a three-entry courtyard. In the Six Demon Trials, Whether Wuzhiqi asked him what he did with this power, and he couldn't think of a second sentence that was more fitting.

"Earl Baron Xingyi's seven words are comparable to Gatha (Buddhist verses), the essence of life is all in it, worthy of being the Ninth Buddha!" Ji Ji Zuibo of the Heavenly Sword Tomb praised, "However, the trajectory of life, everyone's personality is different."

"This sentence is too peaceful and too soft for me. Although there are countless feelings, it does not reach sudden enlightenment, and it is incomparably fitting for Daoist cultivators like Brother Yuan who are usually free and easy."

Liang Qu laughed.

The so-called Gatha is Buddhist scripture singing, a provincial abbreviation of Gatha.

It is a summary sentence written from some reading feelings of Buddhist scriptures or realizations obtained in the practice of cultivation.

Buddhist scriptures are the trunk and green branches, Gatha is the fruit and flowers. Behind every Gatha is a story,

and it becomes a beautiful story of monks' sudden enlightenment.

Himself—

"Overpraised."

"No!" Ji Ji Zuibo said seriously, "It is because Earl Baron Xingyi rose too fast and did not realize his own influence. In the eyes of familiar relatives and friends, it seems that nothing has changed."

"But in our eyes, at the time of meeting each other, Earl Baron Xingyi, who realized the Heart Fire, was already a Perfected Form Grandmaster of the world's first class."

Liang Qu was stunned.

Shan Ying looked sideways. Ji Ji Zuibo didn't speak much on weekdays, didn't see that he was so good at flattering.

However...

The truth is not bad.

Perfected Form Grandmaster, placed in the five great true lineages, is also a key elder level, a leadership level.

Some people are geniuses when they are born, they are freaks, but no one is born a master, knowing how to read and write.

Everyone needs to enter the school, needs to be disciplined by teachers, taught one by one, and deep in their hearts, they naturally establish the authority of the Perfected Form.

People meet each other, the mode of interaction, always based on the first impression.

The first impression Liang Qu gave to the local villagers in Pingyang Prefecture and to his relatives and friends was completely different from the one he gave to outsiders, especially those he met after the Perfected Form.

Swish.

Draining the last fries from the pot, Tatta Kai packed them into oil paper bags, about three potatoes per bag, one for each person.

Liang Qu weighed them, the sound was crisp, and he always felt that today's appetite had a few familiarities.

Thought about it.

"Uncle Master took ten years of detours less."

"This thing is fragrant, but it's dry, it's not bad with noodle soup." Xu Xu Zishuai drank the last mouthful of soup in the bowl and threw the fries into his mouth.

People from the Tower View Terrace ran over to protect the way for their own senior brother, the rest of the true lineages returned to their homes, took the fries and went back to share.

The old monk took a pack of oil paper, went back to prepare, Liang Qu and others finished breakfast, and also rushed to the location of the scripture lecture assembly.

Extinguished the kitchen fire.

The charcoal drawing of the four-grid remained in this small courtyard of the Hanging Temple, left for future residents.

The Hanging Temple is not just located on one floating island, but has many, gathered by unknown means.

The location of this scripture lecture is exactly on one of the huge floating islands, more than a mile long and wide. The floating island is very empty, without half a building, just a very thick Bodhi tree in the center, its crown is wide, the light and shadow cast down, beautiful and magnificent, full of imagery.

Today.

Two long tables and several small tables were set beneath the Bodhi tree. Outside the tables, golden cushions were arranged neatly, each position had a corresponding number to prevent disputes over seating.

The core circle is for the imperial court and the five great true lineages.

Further out are the various forces temporarily residing in the Fulong Temple and even outside the temple.

A few people walked all the way, all the monks respectfully bowed to Liang Qu, bowing to ninety degrees.

"Strange, Ah Shui is amazing."

Xu Xu Zishuai looked back, several monks did not stand up after bowing, and watched them for a distance before standing up.

"I don't see the Buddha child Master Huai Kong like this either."

"Nonsense, people are their own people, we are guests, naturally different."

"It must be because of inviting the Buddha!"

"Master!" Xu Xu Zishuai smiled playfully, "When will our martial arts hall also have a ritual?"

Yang Yang Dongxiong kicked him directly.

Laughter rose and fell.

Today's scene can no longer be explained by the connection with the old monk alone.

Two days ago, the Fighting Buddha was taken out from the Wuzhu Nirvana, which had a different significance for the entire Hanging Temple.

Although the image of the Fighting Buddha was a bit broken, not to mention the specialty of Liang Qu inviting the Buddha alone.

Vairocana Buddha!

When discussing in the temple in the past, there was absolutely no thought that the result would be so wonderful.

Originally, it was just a try without hope. It would be best if it came out. It hasn't happened for thousands of years. It just happened to promote Buddhism and manifest power. If it didn't come out, it would be fine. It was actually ordinary. Strictly speaking, Liang Qu is not a Buddhist orthodox, although everyone can become a Buddha, it is a bit exaggerated to say that he hasn't read many Buddhist scriptures.

Who would have thought that it was actually a hand of Vairocana Buddha that was invited out!

This result is even better than inviting everything out!

To put it secularly, it not only demonstrated the power of the Buddha, forbade all rituals, magnificent and brilliant, but also demonstrated the honor of the Buddha, even if the Baron Xingyi Earl could hardly invite the whole frame!

Reveal one part, hide three parts.

Buddhism is prosperous, and there is honor in it. Believers on the road also have three points of reverence.

That night.

I don't know how many great monks made a Maitreya shape, and such a thought popped up in their minds.

"There is actually such a win-win good thing in the world?"

Living Buddha in the world!

On the floating steps.

The crowd surged from Fulong Temple to Hanging Temple like black sesame seeds, noisy and clamorous.

Liang Qu's group was arranged on the side of the imperial court.

Reasonable.

Liang Qu is the Great Shun Baron Xingyi Earl, a real-power official of the fourth rank, Yang Yang Dongxiong is also more senior, and his strength is stronger than many people in the mission.

"Beautiful, this artistic conception, I feel like I'm about to have sudden enlightenment." Xu Xu Zishuai's butt touched the cushion, like a tumbler, looking around.

The entire floating island does not seem to be formed naturally, the surface must have been cut, very flat.

On the ground, the four rows of colorful forest trees folded and reflected a faint light; between looking up and down, the sky was vast and the earth wide, the field of vision unobstructed and unhindered, with white clouds drifting leisurely and the blue sky looking magnificent.

"The Bodhi Island of the Hanging Temple is broad and refreshing, naturally extremely good-looking. Since ancient times, I don't know how many literati and ink guests have written poems and lyrics under the Bodhi tree."

A middle-aged man wearing a green robe, with soft jade on his waist, and a small goat beard, walked quickly under the guidance of the monks, and bowed to Liang Qu first.

"Datong Department Magistrate Inspector Bian Ka Youning, met Earl Baron Xingyi."

"Department Magistrate Inspector Bian is polite."

Liang Qu stood up to return the salute, when the other party came, the style of his official uniform proved his identity.

Since he works for the imperial court, he is his own person.

A few greetings.

Inspector Bian Ka Youning sat down next to the crowd, faintly with a gesture of accompaniment.

Although he is a Department Magistrate, his rank is higher than Liang Qu's, but power will not come out of thin air. There can only be one local leader. Where the true lineage is, the presence of the Department Magistrate is often not high, mainly supervising.

Ordinary people judge the attitude of the imperial court, basically looking at the relationship between the Department Magistrate and the local true lineage.

Before coming, Liang Qu inquired, it is said that Inspector Bian Ka Youning is a Buddhist believer, and the relationship between them is self-evident.

Of course.

It has been less than a hundred years since the founding of the country, and it is impossible for the relationship between them to be bad. The five great true lineages are all in the honeymoon period.

Inspector Bian Ka Youning talked eloquently, born from the imperial examination, his knowledge is extremely rich, citing classics,

from Buddhist masters to Buddhist legends, the stories told are vivid and interesting, and everyone listened with relish.

"Does Earl Baron Xingyi know how the people of Datong Prefecture call you now?"

The topic turned.

Liang Qu raised his eyebrows: "I don't know about this, I have been in a deep sleep for two days, and haven't gone to stroll around Datong Prefecture yet."

"That's a pity." Inspector Bian Ka Youning saw Liang Qu didn't know, didn't sell it, "Ninth Buddha! Inviting the Buddha alone, and the Buddha is different from others, the people of Datong all talk about it like this, no one doesn't know, no one doesn't know!"

"Ninth Buddha—"

Liang Qu's eyes flashed.

He has a connection with the word nine, he was the ninth disciple in the past, and now he is the ninth Buddha.

However.

"The joke of the villagers."

Listening is fine, but you must not take it seriously, and you must not wear a tiger skin.

"Haha, I think so too!"

Inspector Bian Ka Youning laughed.

A quarter of an hour later.

Liang Qu saw the Dragon-Elephant Martial Saint and the mission. The imperial court mission had already arrived during his sleep.

Nodded to each other, didn't have much to say.

Instead, Inspector Bian Ka Youning went to greet the high officials in the mission, his heart for progress burning.

Not long after.

Daoist Ge from the Tower View Terrace, who is the "lecturer" of the assembly, arrived with a whisk, first bowed, thanked Yuan for his sudden enlightenment, and then came to the right table under the Bodhi tree, flipping through the scriptures.

Master Huai Kong led several monks to sit at the small table, lined up on both sides, holding pens to record.

Finally.

"Great Master!" ===== CHAPTER 950 =====
