no,73 Buddhist and Taoist debate (three)

"What questions does Master Falin have?" Huang Junming teased.

Monk Falin shook his head, and had no intention of defending it any longer. As a monk, he still had many questions about the inverted Taoism that could be stolen, but he did not dare to speak again. If Huang Junming cracked it again, Buddhism would really never be able to turn over again.

When Huang Junming saw that Monk Falin shook his head and said nothing, he breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart. He was sweating for a while. There were many contradictory and unexplainable sentences in Taoist classics. Although Huang Junming had some knowledge of some of them, he also had many omissions. Who made the Chinese Taoist divine system confused? Almost every larger Taoist temple respected a statue of a god and read a classic, so the contradictions and omissions between the classics were essential. If Monk Falin really asked about these, Huang Junming might not be able to answer. It would be miserable then.

At this point, Huang Junming suddenly thought of a crazy idea and compiled the "Daozang"! The compilation of the Daozang can just include Taoist scriptures from the Tang Dynasty, and then select, organize and modify the scriptures. Then publish the entire Tang Dynasty. In this way, within a few years, the thoughts within Taoism will naturally gradually form a unified unity. If the thoughts are unified, there will naturally be fewer flaws. However, this is a protracted process. It is most important to solve the current situation first.

Li Shimin glanced at Huang Junming with approval, as if he was very satisfied with his answer just now, but since it was a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, it was impossible to just let Buddhism ask Taoism. So Li Shimin cleared his throat and said again: "Since Master Falin has no questions, then I would like to ask the Centennial Immortal Master. I wonder if you have any questions about Buddhism?"

At this time, Li Shimin was like a third-rate host, asking both sides. Huang Junming did not make fun of Li Shimin, after all, he was the one who was about to become an emperor. Instead, he said with great face: "Sorry, I have no research on Buddhist scriptures in the past. Naturally, I couldn't ask such a profound question from Master Falin. However, when I accidentally flipped the Buddhist scriptures, I saw a small story and thought it was good. But I went to do things before I finished reading it. I wonder if Master Falin would tell you this story?" Huang Junming said in a temptation.

Originally, Monk Falin was shocked when he heard Li Shimin asked Huang Junming to ask about Buddhist scriptures. However, after hearing what Huang Junming said, he had no understanding of Buddhist scriptures and had just read a few chapters of stories, and he couldn't help but feel relieved. He heard Huang Junming say that he couldn't remember the content of the story. If he wanted to listen again, Falin had recited Amitabha Buddha many times in his heart. He squeezed out a smile in his burden and said to Huang Junming: "Immortal, I don't know which story I remembered?" It can be seen from the name Falin called Huang Junming that Falin dared not choose eleven Taoist temples in a row. Although he was not respectful to Huang Junming, he was considered to be comprehensive.

Seeing Falin taking the hook, Huang Junming stretched out his two fingers and grabbed it in his hairpin a few times, and said in a pretentious way: "It seems that a Bodhisattva and a man were walking in the desert, and he had nothing to eat..."

Falin really had an abnormal understanding of Buddhist scriptures. He knew that he had read it by just listening to Huang Junming's words. He directly said: "This is not a story, but someone talks with the Buddha, and there are Buddhist scriptures and questions. If the Bodhisattva walks in a distant land, there is no way to eat. He only has one companion. If he kills him, he will live. Otherwise, he will die. What will happen?"

"Yes, what will happen!" Huang Junming said. At this time, Falin felt something was wrong. But it was too late to regret it, so she had to bite the bullet and continue.

"Buddha... Buddha... says Bodhisattvas for......" Falin knew what the following words were, so he naturally didn't dare to say more, so he had to delay it. Several monks behind Falin also reacted. They knew how to argue with the scriptures and their faces changed drastically, and cold sweat slid down their foreheads. They looked at Falin anxiously.

The pilgrims were not fools, so they naturally discovered something was wrong and started to cheer, "Monster, tell me, what's going on!" For a moment, there was chaos in front of the entire Tianxian Palace mountain gate.

Li Shimin also saw the fun, but as a referee, he had to fulfill his responsibilities, so he coughed a few times: "Cough cough, everyone is quiet!" As soon as this was said, the messy voice naturally calmed down, but seeing that Li Shimin was just saying so symbolically, there was no further text. Regardless of Li Shimin's identity as the prince, they continued to shout: "Monk! Tell me quickly, this story is good, we like it!"

All the people who watched the fun were not afraid of big troubles. After a few shouts, Falin fainted and was rushed to the foot of the mountain by the monks behind her. In the end, the end of the story was not told. The pilgrims couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"The immortal master is good at making a plan!" Li Shimin walked to Huang Junming with a smile and said, "Since the immortal master can set a trap for these monks, I guess he knows the end of this story, right? The Lone King is very interested in this story."

Several pilgrims were closer to Li Shimin. After hearing what Li Shimin said clearly, they all agreed: "Immortal Master! Tell us, you must know!"

Huang Junming thought for a while, cleared his throat and began to say, "Master Falin just said it, this is not a story. Since you like to listen, I will just say it briefly." At this time, Huang Junming looked like a crosstalk artist who was talking on the flyover.

"The original text is like this. Listen to you. There is a Buddhist scripture that asks: If a Bodhisattva walks in a distant land, he will never be eaten. He will only be with one companion. If he kills the food, he will be born. Otherwise, he will die. What will happen? The Buddha said that in order to continue the wisdom life, he would rather kill someone to eat it. If he escapes this, he will try to save all living beings."

Huang Junming stumbled and straightened the words that were just a hundred or so words, and all of them entered the ears of the pilgrims around him. These words were no less than bolt from the blue in the eyes of the people of the Tang Dynasty. It was quite immoral to abandon his companions, and he was unforgivable to attack his companions. Li Shimin felt more deeply when he heard these words, and a face that was originally a little laughing was pulled down. Obviously, he remembered the incident of Xuanwu Gate again. So Buddhism lowered another level in Li Shimin's heart.

Huang Junming didn't care, and what everyone thought, continued to say: "In the past, the Buddha practiced in the causal realm and cut his flesh and feeds the tiger. I have a question from this, why don't he kill the tiger and save sentient beings? I hope all lay people will tell the Buddhists on their behalf."
