At the same time, in the Tathagata Hall of the Blissful Buddhist Temple.
Monk Zhi Kong could not contain his smile. He placed the golden jade slips on a meditation platform and placed his palms together. "Uncle Abbot Hui Xuan, the Vairocana Sutra has been copied down by a fated person. Our temple's Dharma has finally attained Blissful Karma!"
An old monk with twelve incense scars on his head was sitting in front of the Zen platform. He did not turn around when he heard the question, nor did he open his eyes. Instead, he shook his head and sighed as he asked, "Zhikong, have you ever offended that fated person?"
Monk Zhi Kong was stunned when he heard the monk's words. He was extremely puzzled. However, he knew that Abbot Hui Xuan would not speak without thinking. He immediately thought about it carefully before replying, "Uncle Abbot Hui Xuan, I have never offended him. Everything I have done is for our Buddha. It can't be considered as offending him."
"Amitabha, there is cause and effect. Back then, you invited Jingxuan to observe the Wordless Jade Annulus. This is the cause. She comprehended the Blood-clothed Bodhi and changed her name to the Blood-clothed Bodhi. She massacred wantonly in various provinces. A few days ago, she came to the temple to ask for the Soul Cleansing Water. You heavily injured her and almost killed her. In the end, she became a half-saint in the Blissful Buddhist Temple. This is the cause and effect! That fated person claimed that the Blood-clothed Bodhi was his wife. She heard that you heavily injured him, so she bore a grudge against you! "
As Abbot Hui Xuan spoke, Monk Zhi Kong immediately came to a realization. After a long while, he placed his palms together and chanted, "Amitabha, I never thought that the Blood-clothed Bodhi, Jingxuan, would actually be that little girl from back then. Good, good."
"Although everything you do is for the sake of Buddhism, you still have your own selfish desires. Just like back then when you invited that little girl, Jing Xuan, you wanted her to comprehend some Dharma so that she could copy it down and promote the Dharma of our temple. But in the end, you didn't get what you wanted. Now, you repeated the same mistake and borrowed Wang Kai's hand to successfully obtain the Mahavairocana Sutra. Do you really think it will be so easy?"
When Monk Zhi Kong heard this, his expression gradually calmed down. He never thought that the little girl, Jing Xuan, had no intention of revealing the Blood-robed Bodhi after she comprehended it. Instead, she pretended that she had not comprehended it. After she left the Blissful Buddhist Temple, she changed her name to Blood-robed Bodhi. Because of this, it was difficult to know who the Blood-robed Bodhi's real body was. It was even more impossible to guess that she was the little girl from back then.
"Amitabha. Zhi Kong is ashamed. If we could have found the Blood-robed Bodhi earlier, we would have gained another cultivation method for the Buddha," Zhi Kong said with his palms together.
When Abbot Hui Xuan heard this, his eyes slowly opened. He twirled a string of Bodhi Beads and said indifferently, "Open that jade slip and take a look."
Patter!
As Monk Zhi Kong opened the jade slip, he was surprised to find eight large words carved at the beginning.
"If you want to cultivate this method, you must first castrate yourself? Amitabha. I never thought that our Buddha's Tathagata Sutra would have such a cultivation method, "Monk Zhi Kong said with his palms together. There was an indescribable shock on his face.
Abbot Hui Xuan shook his head gently. With a wave of his hand, the eight words on the jade slip completely disappeared. He said indifferently, "These eight words were deliberately added by the fated person. Just like how he did it, even if you found the Blood-robed Bodhi back then, if you did not have good intentions in your heart and used the wrong method, the method you obtained would not be real!"
"What? Deliberately added? How presumptuous! "
Monk Zhi Kong immediately glared angrily. However, he secretly rejoiced. His back and forehead were covered in cold sweat. If Abbot Hui Xuan had not seen through it, the Blissful Buddhist Temple would have become the laughing stock of the six states and one island!
"Revenge breeds revenge. When there is a cause, there will be an effect. Since he was able to comprehend this sutra, it proves that he is the fated person of the Buddha and has a deep relationship with Zi Neng. This matter is over. Remember not to do such a thing again in the future. You may leave!" Hui Xuan said indifferently.
…
Within the Treasure Trove Building, Wang Kai and Hao Ren arrived one after another with a nervous heart. They went up to the fifth floor and arrived before a stone room.
"Wang Kai, come in."
A gentle voice was heard, causing Wang Kai's heart to jump violently. If he had heard such a pleasant voice in the past, he would have yearned for it. However, at this moment, in Wang Kai's ears, it was as if the King of Hell had sentenced him to death.
Rumble!
The stone door slowly opened. Hao Ren, who was at the side, lowered his head deeply with a respectful expression. He did not dare to look sideways, not daring to have the slightest intention of prying.
When Wang Kai saw this, he immediately felt an itch. He wanted to go up and brag, but he could not hide from the Empress even by using Secret Voice-sending. He could only sigh in his heart and give up on this great opportunity to brag.
As Wang Kai entered the stone room, the stone door slowly closed again. Hao Ren secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead and thought to himself, "Luckily, luckily the Crown Prince came to see the Empress safely. Otherwise, I would have been finished."
"Her eyebrows are like the distant mountains, but they are black without drawing. Her lips are like powder, but they are not. Her two curved eyebrows are like smoke, but they are not. A pair of eyes that seem to be happy, but they are also full of emotions. She is really charming when she looks back and smiles. Wang Kai's eyes were a little sluggish. He opened his mouth and uncontrollably started to sing praises. In his heart, he was already deeply shocked by the Empress's appearance.
The Fan Province Empress had an indescribable smile on her lips as she looked at Wang Kai. Her white dress accentuated her aura, making her even more enchanting. Especially that face that made the heavens and earth lose their color. She was truly worthy of being called a fairy. She only existed in the heavens and was rarely seen in the world!
"Hehe, this Empress is ignorant and cannot understand what you mean. Since you are here, let's talk business." The Empress smiled faintly. She extended her slender arm and waved it. A stone stool glided over and stopped right beside Wang Kai's feet.
Wang Kai regained his senses when he heard this. His face stiffened and he was a little embarrassed. In his heart, he was speechless. Previously, when he met Jingxuan, it was the same. His praises were completely ineffective!
"Could it be that beautiful and powerful women are immune to poems?" Wang Kai secretly muttered in his heart.
"Sit!"
Bang!
Wang Kai felt his body become heavy and his body involuntarily sat on the stone stool. A trace of anger flashed in his eyes. However, since he was not as strong as the Empress, he could only grit his teeth and endure.
The Empress sat high above while Wang Kai sat below. To put it nicely, the stone stool was a stool. However, to put it bluntly, it was a stone that was only one foot tall. Sitting on it, he instantly felt uncomfortable.
"Hehe, the more arrogant a woman is, the more Benshao likes to drag her into the abyss!" Wang Kai viciously thought in his heart.
However, the Empress frowned slightly and said indifferently, "Wang Kai, in front of this Empress, don't harbor any evil intentions. Just like how you tried to harm Zhi Kong at the Blissful Buddhist Temple. Your methods are useless in front of the Sacred Master!"
When Wang Kai heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said with a surprised expression, "You even know about this?"
"Hehe, not only do I know, but Zhi Kong also found out from the Abbot of the Blissful Buddhist Temple. If Abbot Hui Xuan did not intentionally stop you, I'm afraid you wouldn't have been able to reach the Blissful Ancient City!" The Empress smiled faintly.
The Sacred Master is so powerful!
