Chapter 537: People with Buddhist affinity temporarily practice in the temple
Chapter 537: People with Buddhist affinity temporarily practice in the temple
"Huixin, you're finally back." Huiyun, the abbot of Xingdu Temple, hurried over. Seeing the weak Huixin, his face was filled with anxiety.
Especially when I saw Huixin injured like this, I felt so sad.
Both of them are from the same generation as Huixin. Although they are not from the same master, they grew up together. Not to mention that Huixin is a senior executive of Xingdu Temple.
If he were really missing, Xingdu Temple's advantage over Zhuhuan Academy and Lihua Temple would be further reduced.
Then the survival situation will become even more difficult.
"Brother Abbot, don't worry, it has been done." The first sentence Hui Xin said was not to report his safety or to talk about his injuries, but to reassure Hui Yun.
"He was injured so badly, fortunately he got back in time." Huiyun just nodded and didn't ask too much about this matter. Instead, she was concerned about Huixin's injuries.
Now that the matter was done, there was not much point in asking further, so Huixin's injury became the top priority.
Qi Sui'an had similar thoughts before, otherwise why would Hui Xin go out alone? It was obvious that he had some mission.
"It is all thanks to Brother Qi's help, otherwise I would never have been able to come back." Hui Xin smiled and said, "Brother Qi is a man of great fortune and destiny with me."
When Huiyun heard this, she immediately understood what Huixin meant, that is, he wanted to accept Qi Sui'an as his disciple.
But he was also hesitant, thinking that she was a little too old.
There is indeed no age limit for amending the law, and there are many people who achieve success late in life, but they are ultimately only a minority.
Being younger is still an advantage.
However, since it was Huixin who spoke, Huiyun could not refuse: "Since Huixin said that the donor is a person with a predestined relationship with Buddhism, I will practice in the temple for the time being."
Huiyun also agreed to it, but she was not given too many preferential treatments, not even a status.
It is equivalent to being just a non-staff member, who is given Buddhist teachings but no identity. If one wants to officially join Xingdu Temple, one must at least become a novice monk.
When Huixin heard this, he understood Huiyun's thoughts and was about to say something, but Qi Suian spoke first.
"Thank you, Abbot. Thank you, Abbot." Qi Sui'an said twice in a row, directly interrupting Hui Xin's words.
This made Huixin sigh and finally said nothing.
It's too late to speak now.
Originally, according to his idea, he wanted Huiyun to accept disciples on behalf of the master, and let Qi Sui'an also be of the Hui generation. Even if he could not rely on Buddhism to support Xingdu Temple, he could rely on his own blessings to add a bit of fortune to Xingdu Temple.
"Okay, I'll have someone arrange for the donor to rest temporarily in the temple. Tomorrow, a monk will come to teach the donor Buddhism." Huiyun's expression didn't change much, he just spoke in a normal tone.
In his opinion, Qi Sui'an could only be a bhikkhu at best. It was not impossible for him to become a Dharma master at this age, but it would be extremely difficult.
Judging from his impatient look, I’m afraid he won’t be able to change his temper.
Soon, a monk took Qi Sui'an to the guest rooms behind the temple, which were specially provided for pilgrims.
This means Qi Sui'an is just a guest.
"Hey, Master Brother, why are you pushing him away? I've already told you that he is blessed with great fortune."
"I was able to escape thanks to the help of Brother Qi, otherwise I would have died on the way." Huixin said with a bitter face.
When Huiyun heard this, she was annoyed: "I was only concerned about your injury, Huixin, and indeed ignored this sentence."
Then he looked relieved.
"If he succeeds, I'm lucky. If he fails, I'll die. If he can become a novice monk, he can enter my Xingdu Temple."
"It won't be too late to train him then." Huiyun thought and decided that she hadn't said anything absolute.
If he cannot even become a novice monk, then he would be a burden if accepted into the sect. It would be better to keep him in the temple.
As for saying that this would be his life forever? Considering his contribution in saving Huixin, it wouldn't matter if Xingdu Temple supported him for the rest of his life.
It's just an extra pair of chopsticks, which is an insignificant expense for Xingdu Temple.
When Huixin heard what Huiyun said, he thought about it carefully and felt that what Huiyun said made sense.
It’s easy to become a novice monk.
If one cannot even become a novice monk, it would be embarrassing for him to accept disciples on behalf of his master.
"Master, you have thought it through thoroughly. I just wanted to borrow his blessings to help my Xingdu Temple, but I ended up failing." Huixin said.
"Although our Xingdu Temple is facing many difficulties now, we don't need to rely on the blessings of just one person." Huiyun didn't really believe in blessings.
Luck is more of a icing on the cake. It is too absurd to rely on luck to provide timely help.
"Brother, you are absolutely right. I was just confused." Hui Xin couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I'll take you to heal your wounds." Huiyun changed the subject. It's not that she didn't care about Qi Sui'an, but she simply didn't have the extra energy to pay attention to him.
If the dispute over the orthodox doctrine had not been so severe, he would naturally be more careful.
Now it is more important to keep yourself alive.
On the other side, Qi Sui'an was taken to a superior guest room.
It should be where merchants or people of high status live, and the tables, chairs, benches, beds and bedding are all in better condition.
"Please stay here for a while. The monks will bring you food." "If you feel bored, you can go out for a walk, but don't go too far. Although there are no wolves, tigers or leopards in the mountains, there are poisonous snakes and insects."
"In addition," the monk briefly introduced the situation of Xingdu Temple to Qi Sui'an.
There are no restricted areas or places that you can't go to. It is a temple that opens its doors to welcome visitors.
"Thank you, Master, for your explanation." Qi Sui'an also replied.
The monk quickly said, "You are not worthy of the title of master. You are just a novice monk in the temple."
"If you have any questions, you can ask the monk. If you really don't know, you can find me in the north courtyard." The monk said politely.
Of course Qi Sui'an agreed. The other party was so polite, how could Qi Sui'an be dissatisfied?
The monk left quickly, and Qi Sui'an was thinking about one thing, that is, the cruelty among these extraordinary people seemed to be limited to the hostile sects.
On the contrary, they appear to be very united and tolerant towards their own people and ordinary people.
This made Qi Sui'an very puzzled.
You are a group of strong men, but you can be so restrained. If it were Qi Suian, you would have been defeated long ago.
As for the fact that Qi Suian saved Hui Xin, a high-ranking official of Xingdu Temple, so he received special treatment?
There are special treatments, at most the highest level of food and accommodation for pilgrims, but he is not the only one who can enjoy it.
But the treatment is not that good.
Just like the scholar he met before, when he encountered the caravan, the first thing he did was not to use his extraordinary power, but to communicate with the owner of the caravan.
It was not until he was rejected in every way and couldn't explain himself to the other party that he chose to scare them instead of actually taking action.
"In addition to the need for ordinary people to provide productivity as consumables, there must be other situations that I don't know about." Qi Sui'an touched his chin.
Not long after, another monk came and handed Qi Suian a Buddhist scripture.
Qi Sui'an flipped through it and found that it was actually the Buddha's quotations, and the content also encouraged people to be positive, do good deeds, and other positive energy behaviors.
The content has been edited, and the missing part should be related to the dispute over Taoist orthodoxy.
"Donor, can you read?" A monk walked in with a food box, looking a little strange.
His name is Mingjue, and he is a disciple of Abbot Huiyun. The abbot asked him to teach Qi Suian how to read and write this time.
How can you understand Buddhism and Buddhist scriptures if you can’t read?
"I don't know. I just flipped through it to see if there were any pictures." Qi Sui'an naturally couldn't admit it.
Mingjue put the food box down, then took out the food and said, "You have come here after a long journey, please have some hot food first."
"After you finish eating, I will enlighten you."
It was naturally impossible for Mingjue to just pick up a Buddhist scripture at random. This Buddhist scripture was actually used by monks to learn to read and gain enlightenment.
If one is a person with a high level of comprehension, he can become a novice monk just by this enlightenment.
However, there are very few people like this in their Xingdu Temple. The most recent such person to emerge is their abbot Huiyun.
It is because of this qualification, coupled with his own efforts, that Huiyun has become the abbot of Xingdu Temple today.
"Enlightenment? Are you teaching me to read?" Qi Suian asked pretending not to understand.
Since you have an extraordinary system, it is not difficult to directly infuse knowledge.
But he couldn't answer directly, so he had to ask anyway.
"You can say that, but since you will start practicing Buddhism tomorrow, I need to use some Buddhist teachings to allow the donor to skip the process of learning to read." Mingjue patiently explained to Qi Sui'an.
He just didn't say why. After all, he didn't know whether the other party could become a member of Xingdu Temple, so it was not easy to say too much.
"The Buddha's teachings are truly boundless." Qi Sui'an complimented, then sat down and started eating.
While eating, he asked, "How is Master Huixin's injury?"
"Thanks to the donor's timely delivery, Master Huixin's injuries have been treated. However, it will take some time for him to recover." Mingjue's answer was also vague.
After all, this involves the top leaders of Xingdu Temple, so they certainly cannot reveal too many details.
"That's good. I was quite frightened when I found Master Hui Xin."
"No matter how we shouted, he wouldn't wake up, so we had to send him to Xingdu Temple." Qi Sui'an echoed.
Seeing this, Mingjue continued the conversation along the lines of Qi Suian. He had received many pilgrims, so his skills in chatting, although not superb, were pretty good at it.
Not only does he speak pleasantly, he also doesn't offend anyone and he has a high emotional intelligence.
This is naturally for the purpose of training him. If nothing unexpected happens, the next abbot of Xingdu Temple will be Mingjue.
Now he just has to wait for Huiyun to retire, and then he can smoothly become the abbot of Xingdu Temple.
But in the current situation, the possibility of death is much greater than the possibility of retirement.
Of course, it is also possible that Mingjue walks in front of Huixin. After all, the swords and knives in the struggle for Taoist orthodoxy will not care about these things.
