Chapter 521: No Buddha in the Living World (2)
Chapter 521: The Buddha in the world has no gain (2)
As for Mrs. Xu, he didn't know him, but just nodded slightly, which was considered a greeting.
Yue Peng asked in surprise: "Two seniors know this senior?"
Hong Wutian smiled and said, "I had the honor of visiting the living Buddha in my early years."
There are heavenly masters in Taoism and there are living Buddhas in Buddhism. It can be imagined how high the old monk is in Buddhism.
Yue Peng did not dare to be negligent and bowed, "I will report to the emperor after taking it for a moment to take it."
At this time, Zhao Dongting had already walked off the dragon chariot and walked forward.
Yue Peng had just dismounted, and he had arrived in front of the army. He was really surprised to see Wude.
Just by this look, I know that I am an alien.
Zhao Dongting has seen horses, cows, and donkeys, but has never seen turtle riding.
Can ordinary people have such an aura?
He also heard Hong Wutian’s loud greetings just now, and smiled at Wude and said, “It turns out that the Buddha in the world has arrived.”
After coming to the Southern Song Dynasty for so long, he also knew what the living Buddhas meant. Such beings as Wude were all at the level of Zhao Tianshi, Longhu Mountain.
The Buddha in the world has a supreme position in the Buddhist sect.
Buddhism emphasizes the equality of all beings, but in fact, the level of Buddhism is very strict.
Of course, even if it is a living Buddha, Zhao Dongting will not be able to bow to him.
This is mainly because Zhao Dongting does not believe in heaven.
There were many emperors in previous dynasties who regarded Buddhism as bright lights and set off their status in a very noble way. Zhao Dongting would not do this.
He does not seek heaven or immortality. He only believes in what he wants and needs to strive for it himself.
Therefore, he was just polite to nothing.
After all, the Song Dynasty was still the world of secular emperors, and it was not as good as Dali. Buddhism had a status that could dominate the royal family.
Wude put his hands together again and bowed: "I don't know the emperor."
Zhao Dongting said, "I just heard that the Buddha in the world wanted to see me, but I don't know what it means?"
He really can't say he's passionate.
When the Taoist sect entered the world and the Buddhism was born, why didn’t this gain come when the Song Dynasty was in danger?
Although I couldn’t help anything on the other side of Longhu Mountain, I made a promise, right?
Furthermore, in Zhao Dongting's view, Buddhism eventually flowed in from abroad, while Taoism was the local one.
So Zhao Dongting still had a little bit of a Taoist sect in his heart.
Wude didn't know if he realized that Zhao Dongting's attitude towards him was not very enthusiastic, so the old turtle under his seat suddenly raised his head and sniffed.
Wudedao: "I ask my priest to go to Dingjun Mountain to save the dead souls."
"this……"
This was indeed beyond Zhao Dongting's expectations.
He originally thought that Wude came to seek luck for Buddhism. Now in Leizhou, the Taoist sect completely suppressed Buddhism.
Relief of the dead souls?
Is this considered being good at it?
Zhao Dongting would not refuse Wuge's kindness and said, "In this way, I will have to work for the Buddha in this world."
He will not worship such a transcendent sect, but he will not offend him.
There are many Buddhist believers, and it is not a good thing to offend them.
Moreover, Zhao Dongting agrees with the view that Buddhism has the virtue of being virtuous. Teaching people to be kind will benefit the people.
"Thank you, Master."
No one can bow to the Buddha's principles anymore, "Amitabha."
After saying that, the old turtle turned around and seemed to stagger towards the beach. However, its speed was not slow.
Zhao Dongting looked at Wude and the old turtle's back for a few glances, and turned around and went into the dragon chariot.
The army continued to move forward and quickly left the city.
Zhao Dongting muttered in the dragon chariot, "Riding a turtle, well, it's very cool..."
He lifted the curtains and looked out of the car, and asked Hong Wutian: "Senior, which temple is this Senior Wude from?"
Hong Wutian replied: "The Buddha Wude is a traveling monk who travels all year round and has not been listed in any temple."
"oh?"
Zhao Dongting was surprised again.
There is no temple, but he is reborn for the dead. From this point of view, this Buddha who has no place to live is really a great man who compassions with the world.
Then Zhao Dongting asked again: "He traveled all year round and rode the old turtle?"
Hong Wutian looked at Zhao Dongting's eyes and knew that Zhao Dongting was curious. He chuckled and said, "When talking about this old turtle, there is a story. It was also since then that Wude's living Buddha became famous in Buddhism. After experiencing several arguments on Buddhism, he was regarded as a living Buddha by Buddhist monks."
"What story?"
Zhao Dongting was even more curious.
There are only six Buddhas in the world who live in the world, but because of the old turtle, he quickly became a Buddha in the world?
Hong Wutian said: "It was rumored that this old turtle was a demon turtle that was a disaster in Dongting Lake. It often chose people to eat it, especially children. For decades, there were hundreds of people in the lake that died because of it. It happened that the water in the year was heavy. Senior Wude traveled to the shore of Dongting Lake and saw the demon turtle hidden in the water of Hunhuanghuang Lake. He heard the demon turtle proclaiming the Buddha's name, and waded alone into the mourning water, leaving the head of the big water barbarian until the demon turtle approached. For two consecutive days, the water suddenly retreated. Senior Wude came out of the lake, and the old turtle followed him, one man and one turtle sitting cross-legged by the lake. Senior Wude did not eat or drink, recited Buddha's verse for six days to save the dead souls, and left. After that, the old turtle became a divine beast under his seat."
Zhao Dongting was stunned when he heard this.
After a while, he nodded and retracted his head back into the dragon chariot.
If it were in his previous life, he would definitely not believe such a story. This was definitely a fabrication, but what he saw, heard and experienced in this life really made him feel a little confused.
If it were those peerless masters, it would be impossible to go on a hunger strike for six days. It would be impossible to stay under the water for two days.
As for fetal breathing technique, Zhao Dongting will do this technique.
However, if you can fight with the old turtle in the water for two days, and after subduing the old turtle, the water will retreat. This is a bit amazing.
Although the old turtle was indeed magical, Zhao Dongting still didn't think it had the ability to rise up floods.
A capable person, a capable person.
In the dragon chariot, Zhao Dongting nodded vigorously with emotion.
He is undoubtedly still far from the realm of gain.
In front of the army, the old turtle staggered step by step, but always walked in front of the army.
When we arrived at the beach, more than ten warships had already stopped side by side on the sea.
Zhao Dongting got off the dragon chariot and got on the boat. He looked at the sea and found that the old turtle was carrying Wudi and heading far away to the sea.
The sea surface is not calm, but the old turtle is always stable.
This is the master of life.
Undoubtedly, in terms of appearance, Wuge still has more than Hong Wutian and Mrs. Xu.
Zhao Dongting thought that it was probably Jun Tian who let the dragonfly squint the water on the lake and the elegance of the cloth shoes without sticking the water can be compared with this.
At this moment, he really envied the Buddha who was alive.
He also wanted to have a mount like the old turtle, but such a strange beast was destined to be hard to meet in the world. Even if he was an emperor, he would not be able to find it at his fingertips.
