Chapter 122 The Holy Monk Who Breaks Precepts
Chapter 122 The Holy Monk Who Breaks Precepts
When Xuandu was sleeping alone on the bed that night, he vaguely realized something.
He seemed to have made Xi Hua unhappy again.
So that night, Xuandu tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
In their current state, if Xi Hua didn't want to see each other, Xuan Du would have nothing to do.
Fortunately, it's not a big deal for a cultivator to stay up all night, at least Xuandu looked normal on the second day, nothing unusual.
Today's weather is going to be a bit more muggy, and it seems to be raining.
Huijing brought the ice bowl that Zeng Jin mentioned before when delivering meals this time.
In addition to the ice bowl, it also brought a message.
The matter in Xianju City has been dealt with almost, only a group of disciples are left to deal with the remaining matters. As for the elders and abbot of the temple, they have returned yesterday, and it is estimated that they will be able to go to the temple today.
Nothing else but one problem...
The little monk Huijing couldn't help but glanced at Xuandu again, and then asked with some confusion: "Uncle Xuandu, the cinnabar on the center of your eyebrow..."
"Huijing, I've decided to return to vulgarity."
Xuandu's voice was very calm, as if he was saying that today's meal is delicious.
Huijing almost had a problem with her ears.
This news was really outrageous and shocking. Huijing's first reaction was, could Uncle Xuandu be joking?
"When the abbot and elders return to the temple, I will apologize to them."
The expression on Huijing's face was more confused and unbelievable, "Uncle Xuandu, you... what are you talking about?"
Huijing laughed dryly, as if she wanted to prove that this was indeed a joke.
It's just that he looked at Xuandu's calm face, even if he didn't want to admit it anymore, he had already accepted this fact in his heart.
Uncle Xuandu didn't joke with him.
Uncle Xuandu is not the kind of person who can make jokes.
Many of the previous things seemed to have found a reason at this moment.
After these days, Huijing, no matter how dull she is, could faintly feel that Master Xuandu is not as simple as the abbot said, resting in the courtyard.
In the past, every time Master Xuandu recuperated or retreated, although everyone consciously wouldn't bother him, there was never an order from the abbot like this time.
No matter how nice the words are, if you think about it carefully, this is almost like putting Master Xuandu under house arrest.
The first time Huijing thought of this, she was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.
At that time, he only felt that he had really started to think wildly all day long because there were fewer things to do.
How can it be? !
Uncle Xuandu is the most trusted disciple of the abbot, and he is the one who has the most hope of becoming a Buddha over the years.
How could I come up with such a terrible and outrageous idea?
Even if Uncle Xuandu seems to be a little different after coming back from the mountain this time, but he has heard from those senior brothers that Xianju City is indeed in big trouble this time, and it must be because of this that Uncle Xuandu came here reason.
After all, it is not uncommon for practitioners to have a big change in personality if something goes wrong in their cultivation, or if they encounter some special circumstances, or change their appearance just because of it.
They have been taught on the first day of their practice that this path is very difficult and dangerous, and it is not as beautiful as it seems.
But thinking about it now, Huijing realized that her absurd conjecture might be true!
The abbot and the others knew that Uncle Xuandu wanted to return to vulgarity, so they...
So when Huijing came out of Xuandu's courtyard this time, her steps seemed heavier than ever before.
He looked back at the small courtyard, his mind was still a little foggy, he just felt that everything was full of an extremely unreal feeling.
Since when did something go wrong?
In this deep and shallow green, a little pink color is exposed from the half-closed door.
A thunderstorm suddenly exploded in the sky.
Huijing quickly turned her head back, but her heart was beating non-stop due to extreme tension.
Big raindrops fell from the sky.
Huijing hugged the food box and didn't dare to think about it any further. There was only one thought in her mind at this moment.
It's raining.
......
There are very few monks in Tanshan Temple who will violate the temple rules, and the Law Enforcement Hall is also rarely used.
But at this time, there was one person kneeling in the law enforcement.
The temple stipulates that if a monk violates the precepts, he must openly enforce the law in the law enforcement hall. At the same time, he also warns other monks not to violate the precepts.
But this time, not only were there no other disciples watching the execution in the Law Enforcement Hall, even the other elders were not present.
This is the first time that such a situation has appeared in Tanshan Temple.
The abbot turned his back to the golden body of Buddha behind him, looked at the kneeling disciple in front of him, and couldn't help but sighed deeply.
"Xuan Du, are you guilty?"
Xuandu was taken back to Tanshan Temple by him when he was still a baby. Over the years, he had always had a very strong premonition that Xuandu would definitely become a Buddha.
So he has always devoted himself to nurturing Xuandu, and Xuandu has indeed lived up to his expectations.
Xuandu is indeed like a born Buddha, with extremely high comprehension, whether it is in cultivation or comprehension of Buddhist scriptures, it is almost astonishing speed.
And all this strengthened his belief.
This child is a born Buddhist, perhaps because the Buddha is merciful and pity the suffering of the world, so he was born here to save the suffering in the world.
But this time...
When the abbot was in Xianju City, he was very angry when he found out that Xuandu had lost Yuanyang.
But at that time, the matter in Xianju City was too urgent, so he had no choice but to hold back temporarily, and only called two disciples to bring Xuandu back to the temple first.
That night, he seemed to see the Buddha in his dream.
He asked the Buddha what to do, but the Buddha said that this is just a catastrophe on the way to becoming a Buddha, and it will be fine if you pass it.
The voice said, the reincarnation of the Buddha is to taste the ups and downs, joys and sorrows of this world.
Only when you give up can you gain, and if you pick up, you can let go.
When these illusory illusions are broken, it will naturally be consummated.
After waking up from the dream, he thought for a long time, but he couldn't make up his mind.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to delay returning from Xianju City after so many days.
But even so, when facing this disciple, you still need to have an attitude.
So the abbot brought the other party to the Law Enforcement Hall immediately.
"The disciple is guilty."
As soon as Xuandu's words eased the abbot's tightly locked brows a little, he heard Xuandu continue: "But this disciple has no regrets."
Abbot's eyebrows suddenly sank, "Xuandu!"
Xuandu lowered his head and said: "This disciple is ashamed of the teacher's teachings these years, if the master wants to punish, the disciple will never complain."
Even though the abbot was mentally prepared, he still felt flustered at this moment.
"Xuan Du, everything in this world is just a fantasy. You have been studying Buddhism for many years, but you can't even understand this? Why are you so obsessed with it!"
"The disciple has made up his mind, and I ask the abbot to allow the disciple to leave the temple and go down the mountain."
The abbot looked at his disciple for a while, and the Buddhist beads twirling in his hands suddenly stopped, "Do you know what kind of price the monks in Tanshan Temple who want to leave the temple have to pay?"
The old monk with white beard and hair said slowly: "If you realize your loss now, as a teacher, you can pretend that nothing happened."
He closed his eyes, not looking at himself, the most proud disciple he had ever had.
"You don't need to reply in a hurry, think about it... Before that, you are still a disciple of Tanshan Temple."
......
During the time Xuandu was in the Law Enforcement Hall, several elders of Tanshan Temple were standing in this small courtyard.
Their eyes were also immediately attracted by the peach tree in the courtyard.
Peach blossoms are always invincible. Although it is against common sense, it is not uncommon in some sects. After all, some people may be willing to use spiritual energy to nourish them like this.
But it is obviously a bit strange to put it in Tanshan Temple.
After all, this so-called "elegant" thing is really not in line with the style of everyone in Tanshan Temple.
"The tree demon?"
One of the elders looked at it for a long time, and asked first.
The other person shook his head, "There is no evil spirit, it doesn't look like it."
The elder who spoke at the beginning asked: "Could it be that Xuandu used some method to hide the evil spirit?"
Everyone pondered, this is really hard to say.
After all, in fact, Xuandu's current cultivation base should be No.1 in Tanshan Temple. Although the elders present are much older, but in this respect...
If Xuandu really wants to hide, it's not impossible...
"But if it's a tree demon, it's too ostentatious..."
After all, this is in Tanshan Temple, a Buddhist pure land.
They also watched Xuandu grow up from a young age, and they really couldn't believe that Xuandu would do this.
In fact, until now, they still have an extremely absurd and unreal feeling about Xuandu breaking the precept.
After all, Xuandu has been deserted all these years, at first glance he seems very gentle, but after getting in touch with him, you will find that this person is not an easy-going person at all.
It was really hard for them to imagine that Xuandu would be tempted.
"Didn't Xuanci say that Xuandu went to the Demon Realm a few days ago? Could it be that he was deluded in the Demon Realm?"
"Is there anything unusual elsewhere in the courtyard?"
"No."
"Actually, if there is any problem with wanting this tree, don't you know if you try it?"
"We came here when Xuandu was called away by the abbot. Have you forgotten what the abbot said?"
"If we make a move, we will be able to tell at a glance when Xuandu returns..."
"Why do you say the abbot is so careful? Xuandu violated the precepts, and he should take the initiative to admit punishment at this time!
It would be good if there is nothing in this tree, but if it is really evil, even Xuandu will have nothing to say when the time comes. "
"It's better to wait until the abbot is informed about this matter before making a plan. Besides, it may be evil spirits. In the past ten years, how many people wanted to seduce Xuandu and return to vulgarity? But didn't they all fail in the end? Maybe This time Xuandu was just plotting against him, he had no intention of doing so."
Xi Hua stood silently outside the door and listened to this group of old monks who were hundreds of years old and whispered together.
He went down the mountain for the first time in these days, and when he came back, he not only found that Xuandu was not here, but also had a group of unexpected guests.
Xi Hua knew that Xuandu's returning to vulgarity could not be as simple as that of ordinary disciples, but he didn't expect that Tanshan Temple would be able to endure it for this reason.
Xuandu's status and attention in Tanshan Temple seems to be a little higher than he expected before.
After all, if someone else was found to have broken the precepts, he would have been kicked out of the house long ago without taking the initiative to mention it.
Xi Hua regretted why she wanted to go out today, but now she doesn't know what's going on with Xuandu.
The group of old men murmured for a while, and one of them even took out a thunder-inducing talisman made by Qingxuguan, showing Xi Hua's eyebrows twitched.
There is no way, it was a bit miserable to be struck by lightning back then, which caused him a little psychological shadow.
And the body he's living in now is a tree!
Fortunately, the old man who took out the lightning-inducing talisman at the end put away his things, and didn't really come to one.
These old men were muttering something again, Xi Hua couldn't help frowning while listening.
"Okay, okay, the abbot just asked us to come over and see if there is anything unusual, so we have to leave quickly."
"let's go."
Xi Hua stood at the door, just watching the group of people pass by in front of him openly.
Looking at the quiet courtyard again, Xi Hua urgently felt that he needed to move the 'body' he was using now...
