Chapter 325 The Old Abbot of Dajue Temple
Yu Liuhe has never had a good temper.
If he had a good temper, how could he have been so arrogant to gamble with the Western Buddhist Kingdom?
The old monk was no match for Ji Tinglan at all. Facing the flood-like divine thoughts, there was no other way except to kneel down.
"Creaky."
At this time, the gate of Dajue Temple slowly opened, and an old voice came from inside:
"Since everyone is here, please come in."
When this voice came out, the terrifying divine thoughts of Princess Wu'an Ji Tinglan instantly disappeared.
Yu Liuhe narrowed his eyes, looked at the gate of Dajue Temple, smiled lightly, and said: "The prince's trip to Liang State seems to be destined to be extraordinary."
Yu Liuhe knew best how powerful his wife was.
Ji Tinglan was a great cultivator who had cultivated the three realms of Dharma, body and spirit. He had basically no shortcomings in all aspects, and his divine thoughts were also extremely powerful.
But the abbot in Dajue Temple was able to dissipate Ji Tinglan's pressure in an instant, which was enough to show that the old abbot was not an ordinary refining master.
Hearing this, Li Guanxuan was extremely alert. After staring at Dajue Temple for a while, he whispered:
"So I need the help of you powerful refining masters..."
At this point, Li Guanxuan glanced at Qiu Qiong again and said with a smile: "And I hope the Qiu family doesn't play a trick on me."
Qiu Qiong frowned slightly and said lightly: "It is extremely stupid to plot against King Xiaoyao at this critical moment. King Xiaoyao can rest assured."
Yu Liuhe also smiled comfortingly: "Indeed, you can rest assured. If you have any problems, the fourth sister will definitely lead the army to the north. Anyway, the Yue land has been settled now, and there is no worry."
Li Guanxuan smiled.
Although he said so, he only has one life. For the sake of safety, he will still make many preparations.
Walking into Dajue Temple, Li Guanxuan felt more and more uncomfortable.
From the first time he saw the Dajue Temple, he felt uncomfortable all over.
A thought flashed through his mind, and the Buddha infant quickly flew over with the little orange with a mouth full of oil stains.
The two little guys have been eating and drinking in the imperial kitchen of the palace recently. Due to the special status of the two little guys, the spiritual chef in the imperial kitchen did not dare to say anything, so he had to treat them with delicious food and drinks every day.
This also made the Buddha infant and the little orange more and more plump.
"Master, do you have something to ask me?"
The Buddha infant held the little orange's tail in his left hand and a piece of monster leg meat in his right hand, which was roasted and sizzling with oil, and the aroma was fragrant.
The little orange was holding a large piece of ribs and chewing over there, eating happily.
"Follow us, don't run around." Li Guanxuan ordered.
Li Guanxuan, who felt uneasy in the Buddhist temple, had to keep the Buddha infant and the little orange by his side. If something happened, these two little guys might be able to help him a lot.
Qiu Qiong also noticed that Li Guanxuan was on guard, and at the same time glanced at Mu Xian, who nodded slightly. She didn't need too much explanation, and she knew what to do.
Following the old monk step by step into Dajue Temple, Li Guanxuan saw many Vajra Arhat Buddha statues standing around, with different expressions and various postures, and the smoke was lingering, making Dajue Temple a little hazy and extremely quiet and solemn.
In addition, there were monks in many courtyards beating wooden fish and reciting Buddhist scriptures, full of Zen.
The bell was hung in the east building and the drum was set in the west building, which also represented the morning bell and evening drum.
Li Guanxuan quickly followed the old monk to a treasure hall, and what caught his eye was a huge golden Buddha statue, sitting on a lotus, wearing a cassock, with a solemn and kind image, surrounded by Zen Buddha light.
Inside the treasure hall, there was an endless Buddha light starry sky, and the top was a Dharma wheel slowly turning.
Many arhats and bodhisattvas were sitting or standing on both sides of the Buddha, in various poses and extraordinary temperament, as if they were watching Li Guanxuan and others in the middle.
On a cushion, an old abbot in a cassock was sitting cross-legged, as if he was comprehending the profound Buddhist teachings.
"The Empress Dowager, King Xiaoyao, Princess Wu'an, Donor Yu, Donor Li... This is the abbot of our Dajue Temple." The old monk introduced.
Li Guanxuan nodded slightly, looked at the arhats and bodhisattvas around him, as well as the Buddha statue on the main seat, squinted his eyes, looked at the Buddha infant, and asked with his mind:
"Is this the Buddha of the Western Buddhist Kingdom?"
"Yes."
The Buddha infant replied silently: "The Buddhist meaning here is strong, but there is always some inexplicable feeling, the master should be cautious."
Li Guanxuan took another look at the little orange and found that after the little fat monkey finished eating, he lay on Yu Liuhe's legs and fell asleep.
Even if Yu Liuhe twisted its ears, it would not wake up.
Soon, the old abbot turned around, with his back to the Buddha statue, facing Li Guanxuan and others, his ears drooping, his eyes looking down, his eyes showing kindness, holding a string of prayer beads in his hand, and said with a smile:
"Dear donors, I am honored."
"Master Zhixuan."
The coldness on Qiu Qiong's face dissipated a little, and he put his hands together and bowed slightly to show respect.
The old abbot smiled and returned the greeting. With a light wave of his hand, many cushions appeared behind everyone, and said with a smile:
"Dear donors, please sit down."
Li Guanxuan did not sit down, and said with a smile: "Master Zhixuan should also know the reason why I came to Dajue Temple. Recently, I have been repeatedly blocked when I was comprehending the rules of heaven and earth. I want to borrow the seeds of the enlightenment tree. I wonder what conditions the master has?"
The baby Buddha didn't feel very comfortable, and Little Orange fell asleep directly. Li Guanxuan was not stupid, so he naturally understood that there must be something ulterior in Dajue Temple.
But now is not the time to expose it. After all, there is a place where the old monster of Void Refining is stationed. How can it not be a bit mysterious?
"I'm afraid King Xiaoyao will be disappointed. The seeds of the Enlightenment Tree are extremely precious and I can't give them away." The old abbot refused with a smile.
Li Guanxuan was not surprised and continued: "Master can so easily resolve the pressure of Princess Wu'an's spiritual thoughts. His cultivation should be around the level of the Great Perfection of Refining the Void, right? Keeping the seeds of the Enlightenment Tree is nothing more than wanting to plant it and participate in it. Enlightenment of the Great Way.
But after so many years, I don’t seem to see the master planting the tree of enlightenment. Master, you might as well lend me the seeds of the tree of enlightenment first. After I plant it, I will send you some enlightenment tea leaves to help the master. How about attaining enlightenment and becoming a Buddha? "
Hearing this, the old abbot smiled and said, "Oh? King Xiaoyao is so confident that he can plant the seeds of the Enlightenment Tree?"
"I don't have confidence, so I plan to give it a try. If it succeeds, the master's enlightenment tea will be available."
Li Guanxuan smiled and said: "Of course, if the master has the ability to plant the Enlightenment Tree, then just treat my words as farts."
The old abbot sighed softly: "Monks don't tell lies. My cultivation is still shallow. It is true that I cannot plant the tree of enlightenment, but it is impossible to give the seeds of the tree of enlightenment to King Xiaoyao in vain."
"What does Master need?" Li Guanxuan asked with a smile.
"A fragment of luck."
The old abbot smiled and said: "But I can't control my luck, so I need King Xiaoyao to find a way to let me control my luck."
When she heard the words "controlling luck", Qiu Qiong's expression changed slightly.
The means she needs is also to control her luck!
Now the old abbot also mentioned the need to control luck. What is the purpose of the other party?
but……
As a Buddhist, the old abbot was not interested in power at all.
Li Guanxuan sighed softly: "Master should know that controlling luck is completely dependent on fate. Some people are born to be able to control luck, but some people are born to be unable to control luck. This is not something I can control."
"This is what worries King Xiaoyao, not what worries me." The old abbot said softly.
Li Guanxuan could see that if he could not help the old abbot control his luck, it would be impossible to obtain the seeds of the Enlightenment Tree.
He can't rob it by force, can he?
Although there are many old monsters of Lianxu around him, Dajue Temple is the territory of the old abbot. Who knows whether the other party will have any terrible methods.
"All right."
Li Guanxuan looked regretful.
But Yu Liuhe said from the side: "What if Yu wants this Enlightenment Tree seed?"
The old abbot stared at Yu Liuhe and said with a smile: "Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect. If Donor Yu forcibly takes away the seeds of the Enlightenment Tree, it will only lead to disaster in the end. I hope Donor Yu will take care of it."
"Yu has already caused a lot of disasters, not less than this."
Yu Liuhe smiled, and a terrifying spiritual thought spread quietly, causing many Arhat Bodhisattvas in the treasure hall to open their eyes and look at him.
The Buddha's intention swept across the sky, like the weight of the five mountains, suppressing it.
Li Zhong and Yin Fu's expressions changed, and they immediately took action to protect Li Guanxuan.
Mu Xian was not idle either, taking a step forward and standing next to Qiu Qiong.
"Amitabha, my donor, why are you like this..."
The old abbot put his hands together and recited the Buddha's name. His face was full of compassion, but more and more of the Buddha's thoughts were released in his body.
This was intended to give Yu Liuhe a warning.
"I can't help it. What I can't stand the most in this life is people from the Buddhist sect. They ask me to borrow something from my mother-in-law, and they also put forward such embarrassing conditions. I can't do it without a fight."
With a smile on his face, Yu Liuhe had a folding fan in his hand, and with a gentle wave, he brushed away many Buddha thoughts.
However, the Buddha's light is immeasurable, pure and sacred, and the light shines on Yu Liuhe instantly.
A Dharma Appearance appeared behind Yu Liuhe. It was his own Dharma Appearance. His body was high and hidden, with regular Dharma principles intertwined around him. He had a peerless grace, and he once again spread the light of the Buddha by raising his hands and feet.
The old abbot was obviously a little angry. A golden bell fell from the sky, and the bright Buddha light swept across the sky. A fiery red magic ring came, trying to trap Yu Liuhe and Ji Tinglan here.
Ji Tinglan also sacrificed an ancient bell, and fairy sounds filled the air, blocking the intrusion of the surrounding Sanskrit sounds.
Then, the Dharma image of Yu Liuhe smashed the golden bell with one punch and destroyed the Buddha's light.
Yu Liuhe narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "It seems that the master doesn't want to get serious with Yu."
He could feel that the old abbot did not attack with all his strength, otherwise, the golden bell would not have been shattered by him so easily.
Ji Tinglan held the ancient bell in her left hand and held a sword in her right hand, staring at the old abbot with cold eyes.
"Amitabha……"
The old abbot put his hands together and recited the Buddha's name, but said nothing more.
Yu Liuhe looked at Li Guanxuan, spread his hands, and said helplessly: "There is no way, I can't snatch it away. This old monk is basically on par with Li Zhong. With the strength of my husband and I, there is nothing we can do to capture him for the time being."
"I didn't let you take action either." Li Guanxuan was also very helpless.
But now that the matter has come to this, Li Guanxuan can no longer stay in Dajue Temple. He cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry to disturb the master today. When I get back, I will ask the Queen Mother to send some incense fees."
"King Xiaoyao is in large numbers." The old abbot said with a smile.
…
After leaving Dajue Temple.
Li Guanxuan glanced at Yu Liuhe and asked with a smile: "On purpose?"
"It's just a test of this old monk's cultivation."
Yu Liuhe said with a smile: "If you have some strength, you'd better be careful. Liang Guo is the place where Buddha attained enlightenment. This is indeed true. Too many powerful Buddhist cultivators have been born in this land. Some Buddhist cultivators don't even know what they have achieved." Realm, it’s better to have more life-saving magical powers.”
Qiu Qiong heard that Yu Liuhe meant this to her.
In other words, the old abbot of Dajue Temple was much more powerful than the ordinary Dzogchen Master.
"Is it possible that the invincible hand under the land gods is still strong and weak?" Qiu Qiong frowned.
"Of course there is."
Yu Liuhe said with a smile: "The guard beside you is the Great Perfection of Refining the Void, Li Zhong is also the Great Perfection of the Refining the Xu, and even Yin Xiangqiu, the current king of Zhennan in Daheng, is also the Great Perfection of the Refining the Xu. But among these three people, Li Zhong is also the Great Perfection of the Xu. Zhong can kill Mu Xian and Yin Xiangqiu with one hand, do you think there is any difference?"
Li Guanxuan looked surprised, Li Zhong is so strong?
Mu Xian's face condensed slightly. She didn't expect that Li Zhong would go to that step.
Mu Xian said calmly: "It seems that as soon as the fate of immortality arrives, Li Zhong will become an immortal."
There was no expression on Li Zhong's face. He didn't bother to explain his thoughts to anyone except Li Guanxuan.
Hearing this, Li Guanxuan looked at Li Zhong and asked, "Abbot Zhixuan just now, how confident are you that you can defeat him?"
"I don't know yet. The old monk didn't use all his strength and was hiding something. But if he really has perfected the Void Realm, I can definitely capture him." Li Zhong bowed and replied.
"That's all, let's make peace and make money. There's no need to provoke an old monster who is refining the void."
Li Guanxuan waved his hand, and then he had a headache. Where could he find a way to help the other party control his luck?
Thinking of this, Li Guanxuan frowned and said: "But I am a little confused. Why does this old monk want to control the movement of Qi when he has nothing to do? A Buddhist cultivator like him has long been devoid of desire and is not interested in any power. He only wants to attain enlightenment and become a Buddha...can luck help him become a Buddha?"
Li Guanxuan looked at Li Zhong and found that Li Zhong shook his head slightly, indicating that he was not sure.
Li Guanxuan looked at Qiu Qiong again.
"The Ai family will secretly send someone to investigate."
Qiu Qiong didn't know either, but she had to figure out such a thing, and she would never let anyone who coveted luck stay in the Liang Kingdom.
"It's best to ask your old fairy, she might know." Li Guanxuan said with a smile.
"The Aijia will do it."
Qiu Qiong nodded slightly but did not refuse.
