Chapter 706: Reverence
The current emperor of the Southern Dynasty also respected Buddhism alone, whether it was the generals of the border army of the Southern Dynasty or the literati and writers of the Southern Dynasty, they were also full of complaints about the emperors of the Southern Dynasty who continued to build Buddhist temples. Especially in Jiankang, renovated ancient temples and newly built Buddhist temples can be seen everywhere, and monks in the streets and alleys are also as common as ordinary pawn peddlers.
Some of the monks of the famous temple of the Southern Dynasty traveled, Lin Yi is also common in Jiankang City, but most of the monks of the Southern Dynasty are thrifty, and the monks of many ancient temples travel on foot, rarely use a sedan chair or chariot, and the most is the magnificent atmosphere of the accompanying monks.
Now the Tantric Buddhism of the Tuoba clan has appeared, but at a glance, it is a luxurious and jeweled style.
The whole body of this chariot is also made of rosewood, which is originally heavier than ordinary wood, and this chariot is inlaid with treasures such as green pine, red coral, clams, pearls, etc., and is covered with colorful abalone shells, and the appearance is even more colorful.
The top of the seat is a huge crystal bead, the hanging curtain below the crystal bead is made of pure black yak hair, this black drape itself is very ordinary in the party, and the curtain of ordinary people is also made of this material, but on the hanging curtain of this Buddha, it is embroidered with gold and silver wire, and the dense scriptures are pierced.
The old monk in the drape was faintly in shape, and he naturally looked very old, but there was a faint purple light on his body, and it could be seen through the curtain that he was wearing a purple-gold monk's robe.
Charming fragrance comes to the face.
The golden flowers paved the way, and it didn't stop until Xia Ba Ying and Lin Yi's side.
The women in white sheepskin jackets who scattered flowers, I don't know whether they were intentional or unintentional, and the golden flowers sprinkled in front of Lin Yi seemed to be more than those sprinkled in front of Xia Ba Firefly.
Lin Yi took a closer look at these golden flowers.
At first, he thought these golden flowers were chrysanthemums, and at a cursory glance they were indeed very similar, but on closer inspection, each leaf was extraordinarily broad and fat, but it looked like a shrunken golden lotus.
"This is Buddha Lotus. ”
A voice full of vicissitudes sounded, "It is a holy flower that grows only in the most primitive glacier-covered mountains, but in the area where the earth and fire gush, where the fertile black soil meets the ice and snow." ”
Hearing this voice, the twelve yellow-robed monks carrying the chariot stopped in unison, and were pulled by a wonderful force, and the drape of the chariot parted to both sides, revealing the figure of the Buddha who spoke inside.
Just like the ebb of the tide, the Tuoba people present almost retreated cleanly, only Tuoba Xiong stood respectfully on the side of the chariot, and there were only more than ten ascetics left, and even the twelve yellow-robed monks carrying the chariot retreated the same way after putting down the chariot.
Lin Yi's gaze slowly swept over the more than ten ascetics who were waiting on the side, and finally landed on the Buddha on the seat.
Tuoba Xiongxin's self-confidence at the beginning was not unreasonable, and among the more than ten ascetics who remained, there were at least three cultivators of the Divine Mind Realm.
This Buddha is indeed extremely old, his face is full of wrinkles, his eyes are already a little cloudy, and his bones are a little deformed because of his age, except for rickets, even if he sits upright at this time, it gives people a feeling of a crooked old tree.
Like ordinary dervishes, he didn't have any hair, but the top of his bare head was not an ordinary ring mark, but a slightly concave peculiar pattern, like a map, but when you looked closely, it looked like a city map, and those lines crisscrossed and were very regular.
"This is the mandala, and in any tantric teaching, the mandala is the city where the Buddha dwells, which has the highest divine power to suppress evil, and of course only the highest tantric leader is qualified to engrave such a pattern on the top of his head. ”
Seeing Lin Yi's gaze lingering on the top of his head, the Buddha of the Tuoba clan looked at him and said slowly.
Although his voice is full of vicissitudes, it seems very gentle, and there is a feeling that people are very comfortable to listen to.
"So you talk?"
Luo Jilian's voice sounded a little abruptly at this time, she looked at Tuoba Xiongxin with a provocative look in her eyes, and said, "Tuoba City Lord, do you want to settle the rest of us first?"
The more rude and arrogant she became, the more Tuoba Xiongxin decided that she had such qualifications, and the more he thought that she was indeed the representative of the Fei Ting clan.
Tuoba Xiongxin had also comprehended her personality before, and at this time, he was afraid that she would say something rude in front of the Buddha, so he didn't even hesitate at all, and whispered twice to the back.
Two generals of the Tuoba clan swept from behind the gate of the second gate, and made a gesture of invitation to Luo Jilian.
"You're staying here with him?"
Luo Jilian quietly asked Bai Yuelu, and seeing Bai Yuelu nodding, she didn't say anything more, and took most of the Xiaba clan into the city with the two Tuoba clan generals.
Lin Yi, Xia Ba Ying, and Bai Yuelu were left behind, and there were only more than ten people left, all of whom were cultivators in the Xia Ba clan.
When the footsteps stopped, the Buddha who was waiting quietly on the seat raised his head slightly, his left hand moved slightly, his left hand stretched out the wide sleeve of the monk's robe, and turned his palm up, but in his hand he was holding a fist-sized orb.
The pearl was a dull yellow color, like the afterglow of the setting sun, and the surface looked as soft as wax, and the inside of the orb was like a lot of tiny seaweed solidified inside.
Lin Yi turned his head and glanced at Bai Yuelu, he didn't know what kind of bead it was, nor did he know what the Buddha's action meant, but between Bai Yuelu and him, there was obviously confusion in his eyes, and he obviously didn't know the origin of the bead in the hands of the Tuoba Clan.
"The party is vast and sparsely populated, and the periphery is vast, and there is just a lack of people to open up. Since the Xiaba clan has risen, it will naturally be a good thing if they can share the party project with the Tuoba clan. At this moment, the Buddha Sect had already watched him and Xia Pa Ying speak, and as he spoke, a soft True Yuan aura also rippled through him.
This kind of true yuan aura also has a sense of aging, and it does not go beyond the realm of divine thoughts, and the first feeling to Lin Yi is that as a cultivator alone, this Buddha sect is not very powerful for him.
"What do you Shaba want?" the Buddha continued in a slow voice.
"Except for the Tuoba clan, the Xiaba clan, and the Fei Ting clan, there are no other royal families in the party. ”
Xia Ba Ying remained silent, Luo Jilian's indiscriminate boasting made her learn, and she also opened her mouth at this time, "After our coalition army destroyed the rest of the royal clans, our three clans will govern the party together, but then the three clans must join forces and include Tuguhun in our party's territory." ”
This is also a reasonable request. Buddha Sect said directly.
The crispness of his speech also made Tuoba Xiongxin's face change greatly.
Although this is simple, it is not easy to do, how could he have thought that the Buddha would directly agree to this.
"It's just that the Tuoba clan and my tantric sect also have a small request. ”
At this moment, the Buddha waved his right hand again, as if to signal that he didn't need to say anything more.
Then the extremely old man looked at Lin Yi with blazing eyes, and said, "I want to know the cultivation method of the exercises you are cultivating. ”
