August 17 is the first day of the Vajra Puja at Dongyang Temple in Dongling.

On this day, the three gates of Dongyang Ancient Temple are fully opened, welcoming guests, meaning to give wisdom, compassion and convenience to all sentient beings.

Dongyang Ancient Temple, although it is quite influential in the Dongling Eastern Region, but the monks in the temple are only 5,000. This cannot be compared with the three major immortal gates of the Northern Wilderness, the Northern Han Sect, the Jiangxue Pavilion, and the Heavenly Wilderness Gate, which are often tens of thousands of people in terms of numbers.

However, Dongyang Temple and other Buddhist sects in Dongling have a characteristic, that is, there are almost no cultivators in the mountain gate.

The Buddhist family passed on the scriptures and clothed the law, only asked about fate, and then dictated the secret method, not the six ears. If there is a fate, wait for it to raise its roots, and then enter the mountain gate. And there are very few people like Amu who have obtained authentic ancient scrolls and entered the mountain gate to practice and cultivate roots.

In this sense, although there are no cultivators in the major temples, the entire Dongling people are cultivators. There are 5,000 monks in Dongyang Ancient Temple, none of whom are mortal, but they are much stronger than the three major immortal gates of the Northern Wilderness.

The Vajra Puja originated from the small prayer and disaster elimination ceremony at the time of the opening of the Dongyang Ancient Temple. Originally, it was just the monks of Dongyang Temple who fasted, gave food, said the Dharma, and praised the Buddha.

Later, the monks of Dongyang Ancient Temple came out one after another, and the statement was spread far and wide. As a result, the festival has grown in scale, from once a year, to every five years, to every ten years, and now once every 30 years.

The participants also developed from the monks of Dongyang Ancient Temple, to the monks of the surrounding temples, to the major Buddhist sects and practitioners in the entire Dongling Eastern Regions, and even the demon clans who have attained enlightenment.

The Vajra Festival in Dongyang Ancient Temple is a major event in the Eastern Regions of Dongling, but it lasts only for three days.

On August 17, as soon as the door of Dongyang Ancient Temple opened, monks and sages from all sides began to enter. Some friends who haven't seen each other for many years regard this puja as a day of reunion.

Although Dongyang Ancient Temple has made meticulous arrangements and receptions every year, it is still very busy.

Often, even the Supreme Spiritual Intermediate Great Perfection like Qing Han has to go out to entertain guests.

At this time, Amu was still sitting on the cliff behind the Purple Cloud Waterfall, practicing quietly.

Amu knew that the Vajra Puja would have a lot of relatively complicated rituals, with the monks reciting scriptures, the believers praying with the congregation, and perhaps some of the believers taking refuge, then having the Dharma taught by the virtuous monks, and then fasting in the monastery.

The three-day conference, various activities, was very full.

What Amu needs to participate in is the Grandmaster's Lecture on the third day.

The Grandmaster's Discussion of the Dharma is the highlight of the Vajra Puja, and many monks come from thousands of miles away to listen to the Dharma for a day in order to attain enlightenment.

On the grandmaster's discussion of the law, there are also various factions arguing with each other, and the eminent monks are talking loudly, either indifferently or fiercely, the words are flying, the stubborn stones are nodding, and the sky is falling.

Although there is no sword and sword, and the murderous aura is vertical and horizontal, but after a debate, many monks are sweating and robes, consuming a lot of spirit, no less than a big war.

A Dongyang Festival, I don't know how many people have enlightened the Dharma, had an epiphany, and thus opened their minds and realized the road. I don't know how many people shine at the conference, overwhelm the crowd, and become famous.

It is said that when the master of Dongyang Temple returned from the Brahma Temple, he once accepted the debate of 19 monks of 13 temples in the Dongling and Eastern Regions on the main hall of Dongyang Ancient Temple, but he was chic and free, cracked one by one, and shocked the audience. For a while, it was rumored to be a good story in Dongling.

Therefore, in the first two days of the Vajra Puja, Amu did not have to participate, but only waited for the third day of the Grandmaster's Dharma, and Amu went to listen to the Buddha's witty words.

This year's senior monk of Dongyang Ancient Temple is said to be the first Shuiyun master of Wanjing Pavilion. Although this Master Shuiyun is only a cultivator of the Lingsheng Initial Perfection, his Buddhist attainments can be ranked among the top three in the entire Dongyang Temple, and he can be regarded as a generation of monks.

Although Amu doesn't think that a Vajra puja will definitely be able to make him how he is, it will definitely be of great benefit to look at the demeanor of these Dongling characters. Therefore, Amu is also looking forward to such a grand event.

Quiet for two days, Amu did not hear the hustle and bustle of the mountain in front of him, chanted and chanted, and sat alone on the cliff of the waterfall. Although there has been almost no progress in the past three years, Amu still practices every day as usual.

At dusk, the cold came, although he was a mid-level Great Perfection of the Supreme Spirit. However, Qing Han is used to being clean on weekdays, and above the puja, there are many chores, and I am tired of coping. Therefore, at this time, Qing Han's face was slightly tired.

Seeing that Amu was really still meditating, Qing Han couldn't help but smile helplessly, and said secretly: "If God rewards diligence and the Buddha is merciful, this Tianya Uncle should have a bright day!"

Sighing slightly, Qing Han bowed to Amu and said, "Uncle Tianya, tomorrow at three o'clock, the Grandmaster Dharma Conference will be held in the main hall. Early tomorrow morning, I'll invite Uncle Shi to come with me!"

Amu opened his eyes, and then looked at Qing Han. Actually, for Qinghan, Amu has a good impression.

In the past three years, he has been cultivating to the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Middle Level, serving him, a mortal uncle, but he has never complained. Whether it was the two months when Amu practiced extremely fast at the beginning, or the last three years after it was almost abolished, Qinghan was respectful and respectful, and his attitude hardly changed.

Qing Han can be described as an absolutely pure heart and a person with a deep Buddha heart.

"Got it, I'll go with you tomorrow!" Amu nodded.

"Uncle Tianya, but there are still orders?" Qing Han asked again.

Usually, if Amu has nothing to do, when Qinghan comes to report something, Amu will not open his eyes. If you open your eyes, something must be something.

"Qing Han! I want to ask you, tomorrow, the Grandmaster will discuss the Fa, is it possible for everyone to discuss? If you have any doubts in your heart, can you ask them at any time?" Amu asked.

"Oh!" Qing Han said with a smile, "What Uncle Shi said is good. It is said that tomorrow will arrange haode, including our Donggu Temple Master Shuiyun, a total of three masters to discuss the Fa. Each of them had half an hour to talk about the Dharma, and the rest of the time, everyone could freely debate and ask questions and communicate with each other. It's just that in the main hall, only one person can speak at the same time. ”

"Oh, won't that turn into a scene where everyone is vying to speak, and the venue is in chaos?" Amu was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but think of the scene where some big people in his previous life were chased and intercepted by reporters.

"No!" Qing Han said with a smile, "The grandmaster's discussion of the Fa is the most profound and wonderful truth! A sentence may require everyone to think deeply for a long time! Moreover, the main hall that can enter is not a layman, how can they compete with each other without humility? Even if the master fights, it is also a question and answer, and the other people listen quietly! Therefore, the venue is chaotic and the words are noisy, and Qing Han has never heard of such a thing in the past seven hundred years. Occasionally, because there is no difficulty to argue, or the master's answer is convincing, or he is dumbfounded and speechless, there are some. ”

"Oh?" Amu smiled dumbly, it seems that quality is everything, and after all, the people who participate in the festival are people of the Tao, not laypeople.

"Qinghan, how many times have you attended the puja!" Amu asked again.

"In Donggu Temple, not all disciples are eligible to participate in the puja. Cultivation is not good, and listening to such a puja can only increase the demons in vain. Qing Han is also qualified to listen to the Dharma after entering the spiritual realm, and there are many disciples in the entire ancient temple, and they need to be rotated. Therefore, Qing Han participated in a total of seven pujas. Originally, Qing Han was not among the participants in this festival, but I borrowed your light to accompany you!" Qing Han couldn't help but smile when he said this.

"Oh?" Amu smiled bitterly when he heard this, "I didn't expect you to be able to borrow my half-ruined light?"

"Uh, Uncle Tianya shouldn't be so arrogant!" Qing Han explained respectfully.

"You will benefit from participating in the Seventh Festival!" Amu said with a faint smile.

Qinghan participated in seven Dharma ceremonies, six of which were ignorant and did not understand anything. Only the third puja, Qing Han gained a lot!" seemed to think of that puja, Qing Han's eyes shone slightly.

"What kind of harvest?" Amu said curiously.

"One hundred and fifty years ago, the disciple was still at the first level of the Spirit, and he had been practicing penance for seventy or eighty years, and he was unable to attain perfection!

"Oh?" Amu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "What kind of epiphany makes you so beneficial!"

"The cold clouds are gone, and you can see the bright moon!" Qing Han replied.

"Are those eight words?" Amu was slightly puzzled, these eight words felt too ordinary for him.

"Hmm!" Qing Han nodded and said, "The laws are impermanent, and they are mysterious! Everyone's state of mind is different, and their understanding is naturally different. ”

At this time, Qing Han already understood that Amu asked such a reason, and he must have wanted to use the Grandmaster of Tomorrow to discuss the Fa and solve the doubts in his heart.

Thinking of this, Qing Han couldn't help but bow down, and said very solemnly: "Uncle Tianya, your heart is stronger than gold, and you have cultivated diligently, no one in Dongyang Ancient Temple can beat you by half a point, and you will definitely be blessed! Temporary setbacks, don't worry about it! One day, the grand plan will be displayed, and the clouds will open and the moon will be bright! This festival may be the fate of Uncle Tianya! Tomorrow's festival, if Uncle Shi has something to say, he must speak up, so as not to give birth to demons!"

These words are by no means hypocritical flattery, but clear eyes and come from nature.

Amu looked at Qing Han, his heart was quite warm, and he smiled: "Qing Han, borrow your auspicious words! The three-year companionship of Donggu Temple will not be forgotten by the end of the world!

"Yes!" Qing Han felt that today's Uncle Tianya seemed to be a little different, and this was said as if he was saying goodbye.

But Qinghan didn't say anything, bowed and said goodbye.

Amu looked at Qing Han's back and sighed slightly.

Three years! Amu feels that time is not short!

If this Vajra puja is over, Amu really won't have much to gain.

The wisp of Buddha fire in the Danhai still can't be defined and turned into roots, so Amu has already decided not to wait for the arrival of the crows.

He also wanted to leave the Dongyang Ancient Temple alone and go to the Brahma Temple. If the Buddha cultivation fails, how can we talk about breaking the seal and resuming cultivation? The battle of the Immortal Ghost Sect has passed twenty years.

Amu always feels that all parties may soon reach Dongling, and his situation is likely to become more and more difficult.

The half-round cold moon reflected the purple clouds and waterfalls, and Amu looked at the moonlight from afar, feeling a little cool in his heart.
