Chapter 75 Qinglianhua

A mountain is flying, and thousands of peaks are steep.!

Facing the lush hare of the clouds, the Xianglu Peak with the Silver Spring Waterfall, a century-old ancient temple lying across the Xiang Valley, red walls and green tiles, and majestic Buddhist temples. This is the ancestral courtyard of the Pure Land Sect... Donglin Temple.

In terms of scale, this temple is more than a few points higher than the Miyin Temple where he practices.

Ji Boyi stood at the door and waited for a long time before a monk with an arrogant expression came over.

"Please order or beg for food?"

The tone revealed impatience. Although it had already been gradient, there was indeed no peace between the eyebrows, just like an ordinary person.

"I didn't expect that the ancestral courtyard of Pure Land Sect had already fallen to this point. Such a person with impure six senses could also get started, sighing and sighing!"

When Ji Boyi saw the visitor, Jun Junxiu, who was hiding under the hat, couldn't help but shake her head, but she didn't feel polite at all.

"Beggar, who are you talking about?"

The words of no concealment made the already impatient monk angry. His huge fists clenched and he kept gestured to Ji Bayi, who looked thin.

"Martial arts are good, but unfortunately I haven't been able to cultivate a trace of Buddhism. After all, I am just an ordinary person."

"Looking for death, look at my demon-subduing fist!"

The monk raised his eyebrows and filled his face with anger. His fist as big as a sandbag smashed towards his head under Ji Bo's hat with the whistling wind.

"It's just aiming at the key points. Why did the Pure Land Sect accept disciples like you who have no compassion?"

As Ji Boyi sighed slightly, the gray-black flat food vessel in his hand suddenly burst out with crystal pure Buddha light. With a light roll, the monk in front of him had disappeared out of thin air.

"Monster..."

Not far away, there was a lazy monk watching laughingly. Suddenly, Ji Boyi turned a living person away. Before he could open the six consciousnesses, he had not had enough cultivation to see the Buddha's light, so he regarded it as a demon, screamed in horror and ran away.

In this regard, Ji Boyi just shook his head slightly, as if he was lamenting the decline of a Buddhist sect

As the only Buddhist sect that was once comparable to Zen, Pure Land Buddhism has gradually declined since the fifth ancestor Shaokang was destroyed decades ago.

Although the Sixth Patriarch Huineng of Zen Buddhism was also silent, at least the disciples of Nan Yue Huairang, Qingyuan Xingsi and others were all Taoist monks who had established themselves.

Especially after the establishment of the "Baizhang Qing Rules", the Zen prosperous era was created with the ten directions of jungle system.

Only the Pure Land Sect has no successor. In the past decade, it has been controlled by some foolish people. They blindly expanded the scale of monks and taught Buddhism. They wanted to find the Sixth Patriarch of the Pure Land by casting a wide net and revitalize the Pure Land Sect.

Unfortunately, the consequence of blindly teaching Buddhism and recruiting disciples is to make Pure Land Sect even more declining.

The monks of varying quality have ruined the reputation accumulated by Shaokang, the fifth ancestor of the Pure Land Sect. In recent years, due to the prosperity of Zen, they have become less famous than before.

However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

Although the Pure Land Sect has declined, it was once the only sect in Buddhism that could compete with Zen. The "Pure Land Faith" circulated is even more magical - extraordinary.

As the ancestral home of the Pure Land Sect, there is a Buddha treasure that makes the world long for.

On the day when Donglin Temple was completed, Master Huiyuan personally planted a lotus seed from the Pure Land of the West.

Today, for hundreds of years, in front of the round dragon pillar of the magnificent Heavenly King Hall of Donglin Temple, this lotus seed has turned into a lotus pond and become the most precious Buddha treasure of the Pure Land Sect.

Lotus has an indissoluble bond with Buddhism, and it is associated with many legends of Sakyamuni.

The colors of lotus in Buddhist scriptures are divided into five colors: white, blue, red, purple, and yellow, which are called "five kinds of heavenly flowers". Among them, white and blue are the most noble.

The grade of lotus can be divided into three types according to the number of lotus petals, namely "Human Hua", "Tian Hua", and "Bodhisattva Hua".

The lotus with only more than ten petals is "Humanhua". As the name suggests, it is an ordinary thing in the world and can only be used for viewing and has no use for practicing Buddhism.

The lotus with hundreds of petals is "Tianhua" and is also the treasure that every Buddhist disciple dreams of, and contains a sense of purity and purity.

Keeping it around you during meditation can make people achieve twice the result with half the effort, whether it is practicing Buddhism or comprehending the Dharma Realm of the Void. It can even help resist the demons of the mind. If you use your own Buddha power to cultivate it for a long time, you can become a protective treasure.

The white lotus in the east forest is blue and white in color, full and fragrant. Each flower has more than 130 petals, which means that every lotus in the lotus pond is the prototype of a magic weapon. It can be said to be extremely precious and can be called the first holy pond in Buddhism.

However, this is not the most critical thing. What Ji Boyi likes is the "Bodhisattva flower" that blooms in the lotus pond.

The lotus with thousands of petals is the most respected "Bodhisattva flower" in Buddhism, which is the so-called lotus in the Buddha's kingdom, and is also a symbol of Buddha.

According to legend, the thousand-petal lotus is only born in the Anutda Pond in the Buddha's Kingdom, and is difficult to see in the world, so it is also called "rare flowers".

The Buddhist scripture says: Thousands of golden light flashed from the root of Sakyamuni's tongue, and each golden thread turned into a thousand-leaf white lotus. Each white lotus contains a kind of Bodhi fruit for becoming a Buddha.

Therefore, the Thousand-leaf Lotus is a symbol of Buddha and a Buddha treasure that does not belong to the human world.

In the lotus pond in Donglin Temple, Master Huiyuan planted the lotus with his own hands! The reason why it is said that it comes from the Pure Land of the West is because four "green lotus" with 999 petals have been bloomed.

The word "green lotus" comes from the "Miscellaneous Lotus Sutra". The Sanskrit word is Utanbohua, Utanbolahua, with narrow leaves, small circles near the bottom, gradually pointed upward, blue and white, and looks like eyes. Buddhism symbolizes the eyes of Bodhisattvas and Bodhisattvas, so the eyes of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are called "lotus eyes".

Therefore, Pure Land Sect is also called "Lotus Sect".

Since Master Huiyuan planted this lotus seed in Donglin Temple, a monk would come to Donglin Temple to pick the blooming "green lotus" every tens of years.

And every eminent monk who can make the "green lotus" bloom is the ancestors of Pure Land Sect for all generations.

This is true from the second ancestor of Pure Land, the third ancestor Chengyuan, the fourth ancestor Fazhao, and the most recent fifth ancestor Shaokang.

It can be said that the meaning of this "green lotus" to the Pure Land Sect is equivalent to the heart seal of the ancestors in the eyes of the Zen Dharma.

After learning this rumor, Ji Boyi was curious and wanted to come to Donglin Temple to see the most precious "green lotus" of the Pure Land Sect.

Just so happened that he got a treasure land of blessings and needed to transform it into a pure land to gather faith and lack a Buddha treasure to suppress the vital energy of the earth and guide sentient beings to believe in it.

And no Buddha treasure is more suitable than the "Qinglianhua" in Donglin Temple.

"Master is really true. I don't give you a few Buddha treasures when I get to the master. Otherwise, why should I come to Donglin Temple to make the idea of ​​"Qinglianhua?"

Ji Bayiyitong is operating in "Ruyitong". Within three steps, he has arrived before the most magnificent and huge Heavenly King Hall.

A lotus pond is particularly eye-catching. The clear springs in Mount Lu are poured into the pond. The lotus flowers are lush and beautiful. The clear water and white flowers are shining. The rockery in the pond is towering with clay-shaped water-dripping Guanyin, with a kind face and looking down at the mountain gate.

The blue-white lotus flowers bloomed, blooming with a refreshing fragrance, making Ji Boyi feel that his soul and soul are clear, and he couldn't help but open his mind and recite a poem to express his own mood.

"The pond in the east forest is clear and clear, with three hundred stems of white lotus and trunks. The sun shines brightly and the fragrance is clear and fragrant. The fragrance of the pond is broken, and the dew is scattered, and the jade plate is poured down..."

It’s a pity that his good mood was destroyed by someone before it lasted for a few minutes.

"Who dares to trek into the Lotus Holy Pool!"

A tall and thin monk led more than 300 monks holding sticks to surround Ji Boyi, who was standing in front of the lotus pond.

"I dare to ask if the person who comes is Master Yucheng, the host of Donglin Temple."

Ji Boyi did not take off the hat he wore on his head, but a layer of crystal clear Buddha light burst out from his body, which changed the face of the visitor.

At first glance, among the more than 300 monks in Donglin Temple, only the three old monks in the head were shining with the Buddha light that attracted Ji Boyi.

The Buddha light on the other disciples and elders was dim and even mottled and messy, and even black air was scattered in their eyebrows. Just from the face, you can know that the six senses are impure and the state of mind is unstable.

"I don't care who you are. Since you dare to trek into the Holy Pool, you must be taken down."

Master Yucheng, who was in charge, had a dark face, gray hair, and his eyes shone with the five emotions of the world's people. He was inlaid with gold, silver and jade on his tin staff, shining brightly in the sun, catching the eye.

What a "Taoist Monk"!

"Amitabha Pure Land Demon Subduing Array!"

With a command, more than 300 monks waved the sticks in their hands and aimed at Ji Boyi, who was standing in front of the lotus pond from all directions.

Master Yucheng waved the tin staff shining with the precious light in his hand, activated the vitality of the earth veins under Donglin Temple and the power of faith accumulated over hundreds of years of life.

With the infinite Buddha light shining, Ji Boyi only felt that he had left the world and came to a pure land. He was pure and strict, and even more than a hundred thousand times over the jana, using the gold of the monk to form the land, flat and soft, and his aura was as fragrant as the sky. There were no evil realms or women's names, nor rubble, stones, thorns. The ranks of treasure trees, and the fruits were abundant. There were many baths, all decorated with gold, silver, pearls and treasures.

What surprised him the most was that the center of this Pure Land was actually a huge seven-treasure merit lotus pond. Each lotus flower bloomed with thousands of petals and leaves. A small Bodhisattva with crossed legs and raised her feet.

One flower, one Bodhisattva, one lotus, and one Pure Land!

"Namo Amitabha, this formation is very interesting!"

Surrounded by the formation, Ji Boyi's expression remained unchanged and he was calm and enjoying this pure land. The extremely ordinary food vessel in his hand burst out with circles of Qingsheng Golden Wheels under the infusion of his crystal clear Buddha light, which isolated the power of the formation.

And at this moment, a scent of what seemed to be the clearest fragrance in the world came into the ears and noses of everyone present.

The earth vein energy within a radius of thousands of miles suppressed by Donglin Temple and the mind power of sentient beings exploded in an instant, and then it was swallowed by a bottomless abyss. The formation automatically collapsed in the clear and holy light in the sky.

A huge blue-white lotus appeared out of thin air in the center of the pool water in front of Ji Boyi.
