Mystery.

Everyone was looking forward to it, hoping that Abbot Hongbian would take out the scripture and read it, but when they saw that the old abbot looked troubled and took no action, they couldn't help but feel doubtful and became even more curious about the content inside.

"Abbot Hongbian, is there anything in this scripture that you can't reveal to others? Why are you so hesitant?"

someone among the pilgrims asked.

After Abbot Hongbian thought for a long time, he said to the Dharma King Miaobao: "That's not true. The ancient scrolls are actually things that my master brought back from Tiantai Mountain. At the beginning, my master made it clear that he would keep them properly, so they were sealed with the Huayan Three Temples.

He has not been allowed to show himself to others for many years, and the old monk really does not want to go against his master's orders."

But Dharma King Miaobao seemed to understand the meaning of the words, and suddenly clasped his palms together and said to the old monk: "Senior Monk, the Master has left the Huayan Great Repentance ritual because it is said in the Huayan Sutra that 'all living beings originally became Buddhas'.

'One theory is that even if someone has great wrong views and cuts off the roots of all good deeds, there will still be room for Nirvana when his mind changes when he slanders the Dharma, and he will eventually become a Buddha after an eternity of kalpas."

"However, in my Karma Kagyu sect, there was a master who sympathized with and explained the root nature. He knew very well that sentient beings would lose the Dharma even if they strayed in their thoughts, and it would be difficult for Buddhas to save them. Therefore, he taught the Dharma of universal salvation and liberation, which can free people from slandering the Dharma.

In my heart, the young monk is willing to use the Dharma to exchange for seeing the true face of the treasure scroll today!"

When Jiang Wen heard these words, he instantly understood the reason why the other party was so confident. Chanti refers to a person who has no hope of becoming a Buddha by cutting off his good roots. The things he said about Chanti obviously pointed to the great evil view and cut off everything.

Master Anren, who is fundamentally good.

You must know that Abbot Hongbian was entrusted by Master. The two most important things in his life were to guard Sidan Temple and to cure his junior brother Anren. Now that the Dharma King Miaobao offered to help cure the disease after reading the scriptures, it was tantamount to pulling out the medicine.

He could benefit the world with just a dime, and if he were Master Hongbian, he really couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

As expected, Abbot Hongbian was silent for a long time, and finally took out an extremely ancient scroll from his arms.

Everyone looked at the damage and destruction until only half of it was left, and finally understood why Abbot Hongbian was so cautious. It was really just a glance. The lines of text on the scroll were blurred, faded and dim, and the threads of paper making were all blurred.

The branches are brittle and hard, as if they will fall apart if the wind blows.

"Amitabha, this is not an old monk's stupidity. It's just because this "Huayan Great Repentance Sutra" is not an isolated volume, but is an integral part of another "Mountains and Rivers Two Precepts Pictures", with the front and back copied. It has become fragile over time.

, so you need to be careful when opening it to avoid losing the treasure."

Abbot Hongbian first explained in a low voice the reason for his previous caution, and said to the Dharma King Miaobao again and again, "Today the old monk will boldly show the ancient scroll. If the Dharma King verifies that it is correct, he can copy the pictures and texts on his own. He must return the ancient scroll as it is...

"

Dharma King Miaobao nodded slightly, stood up and came to the side of Abbot Hongbian. The two stood side by side with their backs facing north. The pilgrims also clasped their hands and praised, stood up and came to both sides to watch from a distance, but they did not dare to block the seat of King Pingxi.

Sight.

At the moment of opportunity, the "Huayan Great Repentance Sutra", which even the Dharma King regarded as a treasure, was right in front of them. Everyone held their breath and stared at it, for fear that the breath in their mouths and noses would be too strong and damage the treasure. Only the people in the north and south sat still and looked coldly.

Watching people act.

As the broken and decayed ancient scroll slowly unfolded, Jiang Wen looked from behind and caught a glimpse of a scrawled geographical map. Only by ignoring the large damaged blanks could he barely guess the shape of the map, which was enough to see the sutras on the front.

How incomplete it must be - no wonder Mu Zeng spent so many eminent monks' efforts to restore and publish the contents.

The ancient seal script at the beginning of the volume is inscribed with six characters: "The sky hangs down like an image, and the earth takes shape." Then several official characters "Mountains and Rivers Two Rings Picture" are also presented. The picture is crossed with a giant pen, dividing the mountains and water systems of the four fields of the Central Plains into north and south.

The two major areas are like a giant river rolling through them, obviously imitating the ancient star map that divided the stars into Yunhan and Han, in which Kyushu, Wufu, Wuyue, Sidu, etc. are clearly marked, until the end of the northern and southern boundaries.

Stopped abruptly.

Jiang Wen didn't pay much attention to it at first. Although an ancient map like this is precious, it is just an early map. The traces of forced attachment to the heaven, earth, stars and fields are too obvious, and there are countless errors in twists and turns. No matter how fine the painting is,

It can never be more accurate than the satellite images I have seen.

But after taking another look, Jiang Wen found that the "Two Commandments of the North and the South" on this picture seemed to have fallen out of place, and there were many redundant lines left over, just like children's graffiti, which was as crude and ridiculous as a child's.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! These two lines are also called "Nan Ji"

"Beiji" are two fictitious mountains and rivers by ancient geographers. They are also the dividing line between the "Rong and Di" in the north and the "barbarians" in the south of the Central Plains. Since the geographical map changes frequently, there are far fewer printed ones left in the world.

There are many classics of various schools of thought, but these two boundaries have actually existed since the "New Book of Tang Dynasty: Tian Wen Zhi". They should not be so hasty and unclear.

For example, in the southern part, the records of later generations only end at "Dongxunlinggong, reaching Dongou, and central Fujian". I have never heard that it can imitate Huhu and plausibly continue to this south - it is so unclear that Huayi

The difference is that you will be punished by a gentleman.

Discovering such an anomaly naturally aroused Jiang Wen's curiosity. He looked intently and saw that the scroll was unfolding to a critical point. Jiang Wen caught a glimpse of a circle of crooked lines at Jizu Mountain, which had been painted black again.

, looked up and found that Master Anren was also staring at the back attentively. Their eyes overlapped and they suddenly said the same thing.

"Everyone, give me the Jingnan Prince's Mansion and see this place today."

At this moment, Abbot Hongbian's movements stagnated. It was Jiang Wen who for some reason suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Abbot Hongbian from unfolding the scroll. He used his skill and skill to quickly close the scroll and pressed down Hongbian's hand with his other hand.

The abbot's arms completely cut off the possibility of anyone peeking.

When everyone saw that their concentration was suddenly interrupted, they couldn't help shouting. However, the Dharma King Miaobao among them did not become angry. Instead, he smiled kindly and affectionately at Jiang Wen. He seemed to be holding flowers, smiling and asking questions silently.

Have something to say.

Abbot Hongbian also looked at Jiang Wen with great confusion, and Jiang Wen also looked at the old monk with frowning eyebrows, and shook his head slowly and solemnly, clearly expressing his strong opposition.

At this time, Master Anren also came closer, took a deep look at His Holiness Miaobao, and said sincerely and solemnly: “Thank you for your trouble, the old monk knows the matter well. Some things cannot be forced. Now I can only thank you for your kindness.”

Already."

Jiang Wen also smiled and said, "Sorry for the trouble, but I heard that the Dharma King came to Jizu Mountain to study Buddhism and exchange scriptures. There should be a round of competition tomorrow, why not use this thing as a lottery? Such a return of favor.

Favor, it’s best to rely on one’s ability.”

The four masters of Jizu Mountain were dumbfounded. They thought they would be able to turn their hostility into friendship tonight, but they didn't expect that these two people would cause trouble and mess up the matter.

The four old monks quickly wanted to persuade Abbot Hongbian to think twice, but Master Anren and Jiang Wen were the two people they trusted the most. Knowing that they had reached an agreement, they stepped aside and watched the Dharma King Miaobao remain silent.

"That's fine. The young monk heard that there is a scenic spot on Jizu Mountain called Tianzhu Buddha's Light and Huashou Qinglei. I want to go see it early tomorrow morning, but I'm not in a hurry to leave."

Dharma King Miaobao also happily agreed, "I just don't know what we will discuss tomorrow? Sutras or precepts?"

His Majesty Miaobao remained calm after being slapped in the face like this, with a calm and peaceful smile on his face, which made Jiang Wen wonder if the other party understood what he said, and he also noticed a trace of abstract and vague meaning for the first time in a long time.

The beauty of wild innocence.

"It is said that Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can obtain supernatural powers by practicing meditation. As a Living Buddha, you might as well test your magical powers tomorrow!"

"Okay, let's compare it to supernatural powers."

In praise of the kindness, the Dharma Protector Lama stood up to clear the way, and Dharma King Miaobao also saluted in all directions and turned to leave. Only the confused monks and pilgrims were left, and Jiang Wen, who was holding an ancient scroll in his hand. Jiang Wen's heart was filled with ups and downs, Master Anren

They also looked thoughtfully at the backs of Dharma King Miaobao and his entourage as they left.

Jiang Wen guessed that there was something wrong with the Dharma King Miaoba in front of him, and the thing he was looking for was even more problematic!

Just now, Jiang Wen discovered that there are some rolling mountain lines remaining in central Fujian. There seems to be a string of hidden and strange spikes hidden under the lines. They are breaking through the dangerous mountains but they cannot see the whole picture. However, these few strokes can make it clear.

It clearly outlines a certain kind of ferocious and ferocious spirit with fangs pointed upward.

At that time, Jiang Wen was startled, thoughts flashed through his mind, and he looked intently at the "Mountains and Rivers Two Rings" picture. At that time, the scroll was not long ago, and the picture on the back was just past Nanjie, not far away.

The most destroyed and damaged Central Plains was still some distance away. When Jiang Wen saw the broken lines underneath again, he suddenly realized that the traces of chaos south of Nanjie were not caused by random smearing, but were clearly caused by many manes and scales.

Weird, the shadows of insects and snakes floating and lurking in the Lingnan land finally became entangled and twisted together!

Relying on the interpretation of imagination, Jiang Wen gradually noticed the dark waves surging in Poyang Dongting, and the strange shadow of Huayue Songshan?

??, these unknown traces are like dirty ink spilled over, but they were secretly painted on by people in different shapes. If Jiang Wen Huixi hadn’t had a lot of experience, it would have been difficult to see the various mysteries. In the painting, the entire Central Plains, including the five mountains and four mountains

, they are all filled with unspeakable strangeness!
