"In order to fight this war, the imperial court has tightened its belt and tightened the rope around the throats of the people in the world. Now the political situation is turbulent and the world is uneasy. The signs of chaos have begun to gradually appear, Hui Wen

Abbot, you are an eminent monk, how do you think this king should respond?"

Monk Huiwen didn't expect that King Wen's topic would jump like this. After confirming that King Wen was not joking, he remained silent for a while, and then said: "If the prince is an ordinary person, then the poor monk's answer is that one grain of sand and one world

, one leaf and one bodhi, the troubles in the world are like gravel, only by cultivating one's body and realizing one's self can one achieve transcendence and freedom."

"But the prince is not an ordinary person. The poor monk's answer is... I don't know."

King Wen was stunned for a moment.

Obviously he was surprised by Monk Huiwen's answer.

If the previous so-called answer for ordinary people still has the style of an eminent monk, then the next sentence is really a bit outrageous.

King Wen looked at Monk Huiwen, half-smiling but not smiling, and said, "I sincerely ask for advice, but you only replied that you don't know. Isn't this a fool's errand?"

Monk Huiwen seemed to have anticipated King Wen's reaction. He clasped his hands together, bowed slightly, and said: "The Vajra Prajna Sutra says that all appearances are false. Without all appearances, all Buddhas will be enlightened."

"The so-called fame and fortune are just manifestations of all kinds of greed in the world that are blinded by desires and sins, and spurred by inner demons. Everything in the world, as small as a copper coin, as big as one's own self, is actually nothingness.

It is essentially an emptiness of emptiness, harmony, tranquility, and wonderful secrets. Since all things are empty, everything that people crave, seek, and desire are no different from dust.”

"The bodhi tree has no tree, and the mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the beginning, so how can it cause dust."

"The same is true for what the prince is thinking about."

King Wen raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "If everything is empty, as the master said, then everyone is empty, and your Buddhist sect does not need to open the door to receive offerings from pilgrims. The offerings are empty, so why pursue whether the incense is strong or not?"

Monk Huiwen smiled and said: "If that day comes, there will be a Buddhaland for everyone, a paradise of freedom, and Buddhism. Naturally, there will be no need to welcome guests and receive incense."

This eloquence is amazing.

King Wen finally understood that the skills and theoretical abilities of these old monks were truly the best in the world.

With a chuckle, King Wen asked a question calmly, "Have you ever spoken to Northern and Southern Shaolin about something similar?"

After going around in a circle, the topic came back.

Monk Huiwen sighed softly and said, "We have different paths, so we don't want to conspire against each other."

With just these seven words, everything that should be said and should not be said has been said.

Obviously, the communication between Monk Huiwen and the Northern and Southern Shaolin was definitely not pleasant.

King Wen said calmly: "What will happen if we don't hand over?"

Monk Huiwen lowered his eyebrows and replied calmly: "The Great Baoen Temple will be eliminated by the Buddhist sect, and all the monks who have made ultimatums in the Great Baoen Temple will not be recognized by the Buddhist sect."

When a monk becomes a monk, he will have an ultimatum.

The ultimatum is kept in the temple where he became a monk, and the government will also have a backup. If the monk wants to travel or visit other temples in the future, he must first transfer the ultimatum, so that the other temple will accept and recognize it, and he will also be able to enter and leave the city.

It is necessary to issue relevant certificates before being released.

Dudu is equivalent to a monk's ID card.
