Look In the Mirror

  Chapter 553 Min Pukong

   "Da Leiyin Temple must have a follower this time."

  Li Chen raised his head slightly, but saw Monk Miaodi's eyes were firm, and he didn't seem to be talking nonsense.

   Immediately responded in a low voice: "Thank you, I will be careful."

  Monk Miaodi nodded and turned to leave.

  Looking at his back, Li Chen turned his head to look in the direction of Leiyin Fozi after a little thought.

   But he saw that he had already met the second monk at this time.

  Li Chen exhaled a foul breath, and said in his heart: Soldiers come to block the water and cover them with soil.

   Now also began to look for a second opponent.

   The second one is a middle-aged monk.

  His eyes were narrowed into a slit, and a little light came out of them, looking very shrewd.

  Seeing that the other party is killing Buddha, he is not worried but happy.

  【So what if the wisdom of the Buddha who kills lives is deep? He is so young, even if he has listened to Buddhist scriptures since his mother's womb, he is no match for the old monk now! 】

  【Lao Na is the existence of the so-called 'Mobile Sutra Pavilion'! 】

   "Amitabha."

   "Little monk, Shasheng Temple, Lichen, met senior."

  【What a polite little monk~】

   "Amitabha."

   "Lao Na, Minminsi, Pukong, I have seen Master Lichen."

  The old monk nodded, looked up and down at the legendary Buddha who killed animals, and asked directly: "What is the meaning of the four fruits of sound and hearing?"

   Li Chen thought to himself: Sure enough, this Master Pukong's Zen questions are deeper.

"Xu Tuohuan's cloud pre-flow is called the first sage stream. After seven lives and deaths, he will be an Arhat. Si Tuohan will be an Arahant once this cloud goes back and forth, and after one life and death. Then you will be an arhat. An arhat is said to have no birth, and it is said that he will never return to the three realms to be reborn. This is the ultimate of the four fruits."

  The old monk Pukong was taken aback. He had expected that the Buddhist disciple who killed life must have extraordinary Dharma, but he didn't expect that when the other party answered, there was no hesitation in the slightest.

  【It seems that this Buddha-killer is much more difficult to deal with than I imagined. 】

  Just then Li Chen asked suddenly: "The people of the previous life are not the people of the present world. The people of the present world are not the people of the future. How can we eat the fruit and receive retribution?"

  When the old monk heard this question, he immediately felt tense: This question of killing a Buddha is really tricky.

  But soon he smiled at the corner of his mouth, if he wants to compete in cultivation, he may be insufficient.

   But if it is Buddhism, hum, I have not convinced anyone, even if I kill a Buddha, I have to teach him a lesson!

  At the moment, he directly said: "Although the body is different, the mind is the same, so there are people who don't know the cause, such as knotting a grass ring."

  Li Chen nodded, but saw that the monk in front of him looked indifferent, as if the question he just asked did not seem to have any hesitation for the other party.

  The old monk pondered for a while, and suddenly asked: "What is the five yin blazing?"

  This question is a bit murderous.

  Everyone in the world knows that this princess Shenxiu, who killed the Buddha's son and the concubine of Xiangfei Valley, split the bamboo and joined the scorpion. In fact, there is a worry of desire in Buddhism.

  So the old monk asked this question.

  【Young man, you probably don’t know much about love affairs, so slowly fall into the old monk’s trap. 】

   Li Chen felt amused in his heart, the old monk seemed to be completely kept in the dark.

"My body and mind can be divided into five parts: one form, two feelings, three thoughts, four elements, and five consciousnesses. Yin, covering, is always shrouded and difficult to escape, so it is called flaming. Suffering from troubles and troubles at the moment, and physical and mental illness afterwards, which is the worst of the suffering. And because of the karma created, feelings will be repaid in the future, and it is the forerunner of all sufferings.”

  The old monk was taken aback when he saw this, but he didn't expect the other party to be so calm, so he asked without mercy: "The twelve karmas are continuous. How?"

Seeing this, Li Chen naturally did not dare to be careful: "Ignorance is the condition for the generation of action, the condition for the formation of consciousness, the condition for consciousness to produce name and form, the condition for name and form to produce the six sense organs, the condition for the six sense organs to produce contact, the condition for contact to produce feeling, and the condition for To be born and loved, to be born is born by love, to be born by being born, to be born by being, to be born by being born, to grow old and die by being born.”

  His words were a little deep, but neither humble nor overbearing.

   "What is conditioned consciousness producing name and matter?"

  …

  The two of you came and went, without any hesitation, and they had already exchanged seven or eight questions in a blink of an eye.

   As the time went by, the old monk Pukong became more and more surprised.

  【This killing Buddha is young next year, but he has such profound knowledge of Buddhism. 】

  【Could it be that this Buddha is really the reincarnation of a great Buddha? 】

  When his thoughts were spinning, it was his turn to ask questions again. Monk Pukong thought about raising the difficulty a bit after pondering: "What is a pure heart?"

  This question sounds easy, but it is not easy to find the supporting scriptures in the vast Buddhist scriptures.

  After asking this question, Monk Pukong looked up into Lichen's eyes, thinking in his heart: How should this little monk respond.

  After all, I have an age advantage, and I have read more Buddhist scriptures than Lichen has eaten.

   Just when he was confident, Li Chen suddenly replied: "You can do it for the affairs of the world, but you can't do it for the will of the world."

   "A mind without waves is a pure mind."

  The old monk heard this, but his complexion changed, and he lost his pure heart.

  'It can be taken as a matter of the world, but it cannot be taken as the will of the world. ’ These words are exactly from the annotations in the Sutra of Ananda’s Inquiry about Buddha’s Odds and Good Fortunes.

  【This scripture is not a mainstream classic. According to his age, he shouldn't have read it! 】

   Li Chen secretly laughed in his heart, and said to the 'Smart Old Man', 'Good, good, good'.

  So it was Li Chen's turn to ask questions again, and he didn't intend to procrastinate any longer this time, even if he asked a difficult question: "Cultivating space concentration, how is it?"

  This question is about an unnamed scripture that Lichen saw in the Buddhist scripture pavilion of Jingang Temple.

  King Kong Temple, as one of the three hidden temples, contains many isolated Buddhist scriptures.

   It is the Pukong monk in front of him, Bo Wen, who has memorized it by force, but how to deal with this kind of scriptures that he has never seen before?

   Sure enough, when this question came up, Monk Pukong frowned suddenly, and stood there without saying a word.

  After a long time, he raised his head and let out a long sigh: "Young people are awesome!"

   "The old man lost."

  Monk Pukong shook his head slightly, but looked at Lichen calmly.

   "Please also kill the Buddha to clear up the old monk's doubts." After speaking, he bowed deeply to Lichen.

Li Chen also hurriedly returned the salute, and replied directly: "Pedestrians have attained the fourth jhāna, pondering over the faults of form and dharma, and intending to eliminate all form and dharma. , Let oneself live in the emptiness, and then suddenly correspond to the emptiness, his mind is clear and pure, neither suffering nor joy, only seeing the emptiness, without all forms, and the mind is clear and quiet, without hindrance and ease, it is the emptiness of the emptiness.

   "It is from the "Shoushurangama Yishu Sutra" in the Sutra Library of Jingang Temple."

   "It must be said that senior Pukong has not read this scripture, so Lichen is invincible."

"Hahaha."

  After laughing out loud three times, Monk Pukong said: "Victory is victory, and defeat is defeat."

   "Victory and defeat are all appearances, and all practice."

   "Master Lichen is humble."

   "I wish Master all the best in this auspicious Dharma conference."

   After finishing speaking, he turned around and left directly. It has to be said that the monk Pukong has reached the state of Zen.
