Chapter 199 Putuo Mountain
“The first fight was nearly 800 years ago, but the cause of the incident was probably more than 2,000 years ago, so if you ask ordinary people, you may not know.”
Taoist Mu Jing looked at Chu Tai and explained in detail the beginning and end of the conflict between the two factions.
“We all know that the founder of Mount Wutai was a monk who transferred from the Demonic Path to Xuanmen. It is said that when he was still in the Demonic Path, he had encountered the previous head of Emei, and was attacked by him with the thunder and fire swords. Defeated. Later, the Patriarch of Wutai turned to Xuanmen and planned to occupy Wutai Mountain and gather the essences of the five directions and five elements to build his own Hunyuan Yiqi Dojo with Wutai Five Peaks as the core."
"I know this. At that time, it seems that seven eminent monks in Buddhism who were equivalent to the fourth-level immortals personally ended up fighting the Wutai Patriarch more than a dozen times, and finally ended with the strong intervention of the Central Plains Dynasty. Does this have anything to do with Mount Emei? ”
Taoist Zhengyang’s question was also the content of Chu Tai’s curiosity. Taoist Mu Jing smiled and said: “Of course it is related. But I can’t say more about some of the connections behind this matter. I’ll let another Taoist friend explain it.”< br>
While speaking, Chu Tai looked into the void and said with a smile: "So that's it, Fellow Taoist Jingguang is here too."
While speaking, Sanskrit sounds emerged, and the female Jingguang Celestial Girl stepped on her feet. Jin Lian came and greeted everyone. After hearing the content of the previous discussion, he thought for a moment and then explained it to everyone.
“At that time, Buddhism spread in China, established Taoist temples in the ten directions, and handed down 84,000 Dharma doors to enlighten all living beings. However, in the end, only five Taoist temples were completely preserved, and they were dedicated to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Jiuhua Mountain, Putuo Mountain is dedicated to Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Emei Mountain is dedicated to Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, Fanjing Mountain is dedicated to Maitreya Bodhisattva, and Wutai Mountain is dedicated to Manjushri Bodhisattva."
"In the early years, The five great schools of Buddhism are closely related to each other. Among the seven eminent monks who fought with the Patriarch of Wutai, five were local sages from Mount Wutai, and two were senior Buddhists who came to support Mount Emei.”
Pure Light Goddess is proficient in the art of vocal music. Even if she does not specifically use her magical powers, she just speaks with intention, which makes people have many visions, as if they have seen the heyday of Buddhism in the past.
The most unfortunate thing is that the vision of the Sanskrit sounds was very short-lived, and it began to decline uncontrollably as he described it.
“It is also because these two seniors were forced to ascend by the Wutai Patriarch during the Dharma fight that year that the Buddhist inheritance on Mount Emei has declined a lot, which also laid the foundation for the first Dharma fight. The inheritance of Buddhism in the Wutai Mountain line is even more broken, almost broken, and the remaining traces have been absorbed by the Wutai Mountain line, which is close to heretic evil. "
Jinguang Heavenly Lady sighed when she said this. With a sound, he looked to the west and whispered: "To this day, the Fanjing Mountain lineage is gradually falling into the heretics, claiming that the green lotus purifies the world, the white lotus saves the world, and the red lotus burns the world. They have cultivated countless things from Buddhism. Shao Magic is also sinking more and more. In recent years, Shaoshishan Zen Sect and Tiantai Sect have gradually shown signs of prosperity."
What Jingguang Tiannu said was actually wrong, but everyone didn't care much. Chu Tai listened carefully to her description of the changes in Buddhism and gained a more detailed understanding of the situation in the Central Plains.
Taoist Cangxuan was a little curious: "Mount Putuo? Isn't that in the South China Sea?"
Hearing this, the Pure Light Goddess said with a smile: "The Putuo in the South China Sea you call should be the holy place where Guanshiyin Bodhisattva used to be. The current Putuo Mountain monastery, a Buddhist holy place in the Central Plains, should actually be called East Putuo. In addition, there are South Putuo, North Putuo and West Putuo. "
"The four Putuo Mountains in the southeast, northwest and northwest were originally located in the four directions of the Central Plains. It is a pity that the Xiputuo lineage took the wrong path in the early years and closely integrated with the Tantric Buddhism of the Western Regions. The entire monastery was integrated with the Buddhist land of the Western Regions, and the inheritance was discontinued in the Central Plains. The inheritance of Nanputuo and Northern Putuo was not smooth, and now they are in their respective states. It is just a bit famous in the area. As for the inheritance of Buddhism, it has been a long time since I heard about the birth of any eminent monk or great virtue."
After finishing speaking, Pure Light Goddess looked in the direction of the Zhushan Sect's dojo and whispered: "It's just me. As I know, in the early years, there were even rumors that the Zhushan Sect wanted to occupy the Beiputuo Dojo, and I studied in Beiputuo Mountain for a period of time in my early years."
I heard this paragraph. After saying that, Taoist Mu Jing and others looked at Jingguang Tiannu and their expressions suddenly became much more normal.
Everyone who was originally curious about why this female Buddhist cultivator came to interfere with this matter also found suitable reasons. She was here to take revenge for the place where she used to study Buddhism. Some people with jumping thoughts even felt that the dress of the Pure Light Goddess was somewhat similar to that of Guanyin Bodhisattva. With this idea, they felt that the Pure Light Goddess should arrive.
Only Chu Tai saw something was wrong, and later he heard the Pure Light Goddess asking a question that seemed to be very unintentional.
"When I descended the clouds earlier, I felt that there seemed to be a ray of Buddha's light flowing in the sky here. The Buddha's sound was vast and admirable. I wonder which senior brother has developed such magical powers? I wonder if he is here?"
After hearing this, everyone involuntarily cast their eyes on Chu Tai.
Jingguang Tiannv immediately understood who she was looking for, and invited Chu Tai to go out and talk.
Chu Tai, who had been prepared for this for a long time, naturally would not refuse. Upon seeing this, Taoist Mu Jing continued to explain to others the causes and consequences of the fight between Mount Wutai and Mount Emei, while Chu Tai and others walked out Where everyone gathers, stroll forward along a path.
On the way, Pure Light Goddess smiled at the corner of her mouth. She seemed not to be aware of the problem of the Buddha's light left behind by Mother Lotus's Dharma. She said casually: "I didn't know that Taoist Taoist friend Taining not only has Taoism far beyond ordinary people, but also Buddhism. Proficient, I have observed the Buddha's light you left behind. It is clear and concise. Except for being a little paranoid, it is much better than me."
Hearing this, Chu Tai chuckled and said: "It's just a little bit. Paranoid? Rather than being too persistent?”
Jingguang Tiannu looked back at Chu Tai and shook her head: “I don’t know why you have such thoughts, but I must tell you. You, the Buddha light you have evolved has compassion inside and universal light on the outside, and it is not some heretical evil method.”
"If you have to give a definition, it should be a side branch of Buddhism. Even if you enter the side branch, you will not lose the true meaning of Buddhism. As long as you let go of your paranoia, you can return to the right path."
As she said this, Pure Light Heavenly Lady stared at Chu Tai again. , hands clasped together.
"Namo Guanyin Bodhisattva!"
After the words fell, the Buddha's light surged, and the shadow of a Bodhisattva holding a willow purification bottle appeared.
Chu Tai looked back and sighed: "Difficult! There is no Guanyin Bodhisattva!"
The Buddha's light is also surging, with thousands of hands and eyes, and the appearance of Mother Lotus with lotus feet appearing, looking at the phantom of Avalokitesvara.
Buddha's light surged, thousands of hands waved, and the phantom of Avalokitesvara instantly dispersed thousands of streams of light. Part of it dispersed into the void, and part of it was captured by the thousands of hands and became part of the lotus mother's dharma.
The face of Pure Light Goddess then turned pale. She stared at the Lotus Mother Dharma and whispered: "What kind of Dharma is this?"
