The forty-second chapter, all eyes are empty, so is cause and effect

Guiling Temple is the only place for Buddhist cultivation among the seven holy places in the world. en8. The emphasis is on compassion and peace, all beings are equal, and the five aggregates are empty. The Mianfeng Corridor and Shenyinmen are generally holy places of immortality, but they have different emphasis on each other. There are many mountain gates in Xiandao, which is indifferent to the world and imitates nature.

Such two holy places that are not prone to disputes are put together, but they are in trouble. In the final analysis, the problem lies in the word "Tao Tradition".

The Shiwanda Mountain repeatedly attacked the murderers. It was the battle between Qingchuan Mountain House and the Temple of Heaven; the battle between Moling Jiange and Shenyinmen was a conflict between humanism and immortality; and Fengducheng once intervened in Tianzhu Kingdom. The replacement of the dynasty with the Great Mirror Kingdom and the transformation of more than a dozen cities into ghost realms is a dispute between ghosts and humanity.

Mianfeng Gallery and Guiling Temple are rare in the entire cultivation world, but they are common among the major holy places. After all, the cultivation world is mainly based on loose cultivators, and there is no such huge component as "Tao Lineage" in their concept. The Holy Land, as the leader of the various Dao Lineages, is naturally more concerned about this.

The other places are far apart. Mianfeng Corridor and Guiling Temple are both on the Daxue Mountain. Every day they look up and don’t see them down. They have to play a few games every day.

Originally, the Temple of Heaven was also nearby. At that time, the three-legged confrontation and the three-way check and balance were considered to be peaceful and orderly. However, such a large area in the northwest has limited resources and cannot accommodate three behemoths, so the Temple of Heaven was moved cleanly to a densely populated area in the central and southern regions. The fragile balance between the remaining two has been maintained for a hundred years, and there is fear that a major conflict will break out soon.

The good scene of the Temple of Heaven, which was moved to the Central South, has only lasted for a hundred years, and recently there has been frequent friction with the Qingchuan Mountain House further south. The fact that the 100,000-strong mountain celestial demon Hu Hanmei led a million demon army to approach the border of the human race has not yet spread, otherwise it will be another uproar.

However, these are not what Yun Qing wants to consider right now. Looking at the row of young monks from Guiling Temple in front of her now, she felt an unexpected but reasonable feeling.

Walking in the secret realm of the cold cave before, Chi Gui and Daoist Junhua stopped talking when they saw her. She didn't know why at that time, and she didn't have time to think too much. Now she finally knows what they are talking about and stopping.

The Secret Realm of the Cold Cave is used by the two holy places at the same time, while the Mianfeng Gallery only accepts female disciples, and Guiling Temple only accepts male disciples, so there must be some distinguishing secrets in it. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a pity if the female disciple with excellent aptitude ran to Guiling Temple, while the male disciple with outstanding temperament ran to Mianfeng Gallery? Yun Qing figured out this key, and used the book of heaven to explore it, and he really used the yin and yang differentiation instrument of heaven and earth.

The yin and yang creations are different, and the paths they take are also different.

This yin and yang differentiation instrument uses various great supernatural powers to evolve the principle of opening up the heavens and the earth. In the secret realm of this cold cave, let the clear yang go to the sky, the turbid yin returns to the earth, grow and collect, and end and start again.

In this way, according to the article "The turbid Yin returns to the ground", Zheng Zhenzhen and the two female disciples of the Scarlet Heaven Sect fell into the ground, completely driven by the secret method. en8. On the road that Yunqing took, he didn't see a woman at all. Older Chi Gui and Daoist Junhua belonged to "Qingyang".

It is precisely because of knowing this irreversible law of the secret realm that the two people who met Yun Qing only suspected that they had mistaken Yun Qing for a girl. After all, Yun Youth Ji Xiao, although his face is slightly feminine, his voice and behavior are almost indistinguishable. The most important thing is that she has a celestial book, and she has a great ability to conceal the secrets. Even if she investigates carefully, she can't draw any conclusions.

As for why Yunqing was classified as "Qingyang", it is estimated that it has nothing to do with Aman. They are twins in life, and they are basically one person in terms of fate. No matter how mysterious the yin and yang differentiation instrument of heaven and earth is, there is no way to separate the two of them. So Yun Qing was brought to the reception disciple of Guiling Temple by accident.

This is a good opportunity to get close to the idea of ​​the lotus heart, and of course, the crisis that comes with it is inevitable.

"This... benefactor, are you wearing the sacrificial uniform of the Temple of Heaven?"

Seeing that she appeared on the top of the mountain out of thin air, the disciple who was closest to her stopped chanting and raised his eyes to ask.

Yun Qing nodded, lowered her voice and said, "Exactly, the junior encountered difficulties and dangers, and fortunately, a female disciple in the Temple of Heaven helped him."

The face of the apprentice was very soft in the setting sun, always with a faint smile, looking compassionate and indifferent. He nodded and said, "Amitabha, the benefactor must have planted a cause before, and this is the result."

He didn't even mention the matter of accepting Yunqing's entry, just casually talking about some things.

Yunqing's deepest impression of Buddhist disciples is that they are very capable of speaking, so he also patiently said: "Master's words are bad, how do you know that she is not planting the cause this time, and wants me to bear the fruit of this matter in the future?"

"Cause and effect are not absolute. Everything can be both a cause and an effect. The cause that the female disciple planted is not the result of another thing." He fiddled with the beads one by one, and then lowered his eyebrows again. eye-catching.

Yun Qing was startled, not knowing how to refute. The disciples did not necessarily believe what she said, but they were mostly talking about the Dharma with her, testing her understanding, and examining her xinxing.

At this time, a long bell came from nowhere, and the deep end of the bell trembled softly and fell on the cold mountain top.

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it.

Yun Qing listened to the bell and sat down cross-legged, quietly. The apprentice looked at her with a little approval in his eyes.

On the top of the mountain, the long wind is blowing, the branches and leaves are leaning towards each other, and the sound of rustling is incessant.

The sound of the ancient temple bell came through the fierce wind, and every time the bell trembled, some dust was scattered in my heart, and there was a clear understanding.

After sitting for a while, she didn't speak until the sunset shone on Yun Qing's face from the front of the apprentice.

"Everything in the world is empty, and the same is true for cause and effect. There is no cause and no effect in the world, and the heart can't get rid of the mundane desires, so it becomes a cocoon and insists that cause and effect are connected."

The fetching disciple stopped turning the hand of the Buddha beads, got up and said lightly: "That's right, just come with me."

Yun Qing stood up with him, his expression was calm, and there was no trace of turbulence.

The apprentice was holding a Buddha bead in one hand and a Zen staff in the other. This staff was made of bamboo reeds and looked very simple, but Yun Qing could feel the introverted and vast Buddha power emanating from it. He walked to the edge of the cliff, bowed, and slashed the chanting stick on the stone wall, the fragile bamboo reed pierced into the frozen rock, he jumped down, and the whole person borrowed a bamboo reed chanting stick and was suspended ten thousand feet. above the sky.

Yun Qing understood that the second test had begun.

A young novice standing beside her handed her a similar bamboo reed meditation staff and clasped her hands together: "Amitabha, the donor does what he can."

Yun Qing was holding the Zen staff and was about to use the Xuanyuan Huayu Jade Technique, but he immediately realized that the disciple who received him just now had clearly not used any spells. She weighed the Zen stick in her hand. It was neither light nor heavy, and the tip was wrapped in cloth. Without magic, it would be impossible to penetrate the hard stone wall.

So how did the apprentice do it?

Yun Qing carefully recalled some of the Buddhist and Taoist books he had seen at the Temple of Heaven. This kind of Zen stick seems not to be a weapon for fighting, but a tool for alertness when sitting in meditation. Teachers often use this rod to gently wake up those disciples who have gone astray, or who have lost their minds.

Wait, Awake!

Yun Qing had some vague conjectures. She followed the way of picking up the disciple, placing the Zen stick on the stone wall, and using the bamboo reed stick as a medium, she carefully sensed the resonance between her true qi and the earth. The spiritual energy escaping from the sky and the earth drifted between the Zen staff and the stone wall. Yunqing tried to fit the true energy with nature, and slowly moved it until it was no longer separate from the earth. She didn't exert any strength in her hand, and the stone wall seemed to be cracked by itself, swallowing the bamboo reed meditation stick little by little and biting it tightly.

A device of vigilance, using the technique of daigo empowerment to turn the inanimate point into a spiritual one.

Yun Qing saw that the Zen staff was firmly pierced, so he jumped down, holding the Zen staff in his uninjured arm, hanging in the sky with the disciple.

"Very good, let's go." The apprentice took out the Zen staff and slid down about ten feet. Then he quickly inserted the Zen staff back to stabilize his body. Repeating this, he quickly pulled away from Yun Qing.

"Our temple is built in the air halfway up the mountain, and the journey is quite long, so be careful." This slightly low voice was not blown away by the mountain wind, and it clearly reached Yun Qing's ears.

Yun Qing's physical strength is a little weak, and if he fails to react for a while, and breaks the bamboo reed stick, then he really has no way to survive.

She carefully pulled out her stick, and the wind blew as she slid down, forcing her to stick it back again. Such a pump and a send, the wasted physical strength is much greater than that of the disciple.

Yun Qing gritted his teeth and froze in place, trying his best to calm down, feeling the direction of the wind, taking advantage of the momentary peace to slide down a dozen feet, and then tried to send the bamboo reed stick back, but it was difficult to make his true qi completely in such a move. Close to the fluctuation of the earth, it has been more than twenty feet before she managed to stop herself from falling.

Because the distance of the fall was too large, the burden on her arms was enormous when she stopped, and Yun Qing felt that both hands were hurting terribly. She lowered her head and swept her eyes away, the apprentice was already shadowing in the sea of ​​clouds.

From the initial debate on Buddhism, to the hints of Daigo empowerment, and now the extremely dangerous descent down the mountain, Yunqing's aptitude for inheriting the Buddhist heritage, his understanding of Buddhist allusions, as well as perseverance and perseverance were examined in turn.

Holy Land Inheritance sees the path of cultivation more thoroughly than anyone else, so it is to tell Yunqing one thing that if there is no perseverance, then the best understanding and aptitude are useless.

Yun Qing passed the first two points easily, and she didn't want to be stuck on the most important step.

At this time, her injured shoulder was cracked again, and she didn't even dare to use her true qi to adjust it a little, for fear that she would break the bamboo reed meditation stick with just a single movement.

When the blood flowed out, it was frozen by the wind, sticking to the sacrificial clothes, and it was very uncomfortable to stick to the body.

Yunqing turned his attention from the injury to the bamboo reed stick and concentrated his attention. She pulled out the Zen stick again, this time it was better than just now, and stopped after falling about ten feet. She breathed a sigh of relief, stabilized her body in the wind, and continued to adjust her infuriating energy.

When the wind is small, he will follow the previous practice. Repeating this, he will become more and more proficient in the control of his true qi, but his vigor will also become more and more difficult to support.

I don't know how long it took, Yun Qing almost felt that his hands were about to lose consciousness, and the voice of the disciple who was picking up the disciple came from his ear.

"It's here, please come down."

Yun Qing let out the strength in his hand, fell from the top, and stepped back a few steps before standing up.

The huge building in front of you is harmoniously embedded in the mountain, using hard rock to hold up the beams and columns, and the corridors between the towers and pavilions are linked, half hidden in the stone wall, and half exposed.These halls and pavilions rely on the mountains and surround the entire snow-capped mountains, twisting and turning, and they are extremely steep.It is connected to the cliff at the top and the deep valley at the bottom. It is backed by the snow-capped mountains and faces the grassland.

This is Guiling Temple.
