Chapter 267: Dharma Assembly (V)

It was snowing heavily on this day.

The entire sky was covered by heavy snow like goose feathers, making people look up and unable to see the original color of the sky.

The heavy snow fell chaoticly, blocking pedestrians' vision. Few people walk on the streets.

Nanyuan gradually became lively at this time.

On a bluestone road leading from the gate to the main hall, heavy snow fell into a thick layer, and when I stepped on it, it creaked.

At this Dharma Assembly, Nanyuan was short of staff, and some people were temporarily transferred to clean it.

At the gate of Nanyuan, a notice was posted that innocent young people from nearby families could sign up to participate in the service and cleaning. Although the wages were not high, they were also wages, so naturally some people were willing to do so.

At this time, a group of people were cleaning the falling snow on the road, but after sweeping one layer, another layer would fall.

"When will this snow fall?" A young man looked up and rubbed his cold red face with his hands, with a sad face: "In this way, the snow on the road is really impossible to clean. After we sweep this area, wouldn't we be working in vain? Otherwise, we can wait until the snow stops before sweeping?"

The companion behind him was about the same age as him. He heard what he said and laughed: "You obviously want to be lazy! You said that you should stop the snow and then sweep it. Could it be that if you want the snow to stop, the snow can stop? I am afraid that the snow will not stop for only three days. If you wait for the snow to stop, you and I will be punished by the adults in the yamen, and you will not have to pay for the wages!"

"This snow keeps falling, it's so anxious!"

Another boy said, "Don't be anxious. Although the snow has been falling all the time, as long as we are not lazy, it doesn't matter if there is some snow on the ground, but we don't clean it up and let the snow fall all the time. I'm afraid that the foot will be lost in a while. Then will the adults punish you and me?"

"Besides, this job is not hard, it's just a little colder, but now you can sweep it casually, and you can get a salary and have some food when you go back. This is a good thing. Do you think this is the reason?"

"Well, what I said is, since this is the case, let's continue to scan!" They chatted while scanning, slowly no longer felt that the work was hard.

Originally, if it weren't for the heavy snowstorm these days, how could he recruit people and send money?

How can this be the reason for thinking too much money and not working hard?

"...Several Taoist priests, please go from here."

Several people were talking, and a sound of footsteps, along with a man's voice, came from the road in the forest. They quickly raised their heads and looked in the sound.

I saw a soldier showing the way to several people in the distance of this road.

These people were wearing Taoist robes, old and young, and looked like a Taoist sage. They all bowed their heads and bowed, and after thanking each other, they came in.

There was a face with white beards and a childlike face, with a bit of a fairy aura. Seeing this attitude, several people did not dare to neglect them, so they hurriedly retreated to the side of the road and gave way to them.

Watching them walk over, their backs gradually fade away, and the few people come back.

"I heard that today is the day of Dharma Assembly. Do you know what Dharma Assembly is?" The young man who asked at the beginning was not very old and rarely saw these things, so he didn't understand and asked his companions.

How old is his companion older than him? He has some knowledge. While sweeping the floor, he casually replied: "The Dharma Assembly is just a matter of monks participating? Isn't I know these? People from poor families have to run around for food since childhood, so how can they know these?"

"That's right." The two of them sighed a few times and continued to work. Let the adults see that they are lazy and they will be punished. It's better to be diligent.

The signals of the several Taoist people walking past the gate were the same as those of them. Since they came in, more monks and Taoists have passed by this road.

At this time, waves of bells came from a melodious distance, spreading throughout Nanyuan, which was a signal of formal convening.

The middle hall is the core, with four roads distributed, separated by forest roads, and it has a solemn and solemn nature. At this time, more and more monks and Taoists were.

After a moment, a group of monks appeared on the west road, and they all hung Buddhist beads with their hands, their eyes were watching the nose, their noses were watching the heart, their treasures were solemn, and their palms were woven together.

There was a great monk in the middle, wearing a cassock, looking only about forty years old, with a slender figure and a little thin face. His deep eyes, with some kind of divine light, showed a transcendent posture that stood out from the crowd.

Although they were walking, the monks kept reciting, and the rhythm rose and fell.

In the distance, Tongxuan and Pingzhen looked at each other and couldn't help but sneer. Both of them were happy or angry, with a slight expression of excitement.

"The Emperor's Heart is here!" After a moment, Tong Xuan said, his tone calm.

Ping Zhen sneered and said, "When I get here, I'm still so arrogant and arrogant!"

Tong Xuan said calmly: "He is the Lord of Emperor Xin. He is still the dragon son and grandson of the Dayan of the previous dynasty. It is easy to understand a bit of air."

"The airs are given by people, and those who dare to get close to you now are people who are ignorant."

After the decree was promulgated, the entire Jinling moved.

This matter does not seem serious, but the King of Chu respects monks and Taoists, invited them to hold a Dharma Assembly to preach the two Dharmas.

But those who are thoughtful should think about whether the King of Chu's actions have a deeper meaning.

In connection with what I heard vaguely, some people who usually interact with monks and Taoists all have sweat on their foreheads.

Regardless of whether they guess the deep meaning or not, they secretly ordered them, but the children of the clan, who have stayed away from monks and Taoists during this period, must not be involved in this matter.

The situation in the Chu Dynasty is now stable, and the King of Chu is strong. Even if some families and people have had some thoughts, most of them have given up their thoughts.

Among the princes, in terms of strength and national strength, is there a comparable king of Chu?

Do you want to join the Hu people?

The State of Chu was already the strongest and would not be in trouble with him. He placed his family on the fire to cook.

Therefore, no matter what happens after the Dharma Assembly is over, some families and individuals who notice that the atmosphere is not right before the end have made some preparations.

These undercurrents are surging, and it is impossible for monks and Taoists who participated in the Dharma Assembly to know about it.

Ping Zhen's eyes flashed and she said, "Some people are still following, but the king has dispatched two armies, one cavalry and one guard, a total of six thousand people. It's really a problem. Even if the monks here are eight thousand, they will be destroyed in a blink of an eye."

The monks and Taoist Dharma Assembly was held. During the period, elite Chu troops were sent to patrol the outside of Nanyuan. One was a cavalry of three thousand people and the other was a armored soldier wearing armor.

However, most practitioners are just practicing and are not good at fighting skills. Not to mention six thousand people, even three thousand people can be killed.

Of course, Wang Hongyi would not do this. Behind these people is the entire religious and practice circle. Unless they are unified and willing to take risks, they will not be able to do this.

For Wang Hongyi, it is enough to achieve the first step now.

Tongxuan and Pingzhen looked at him. Of course, Venerable Dixin had a sense of emotion. He lowered his head and recited the Buddha's name. This small Buddha's name was not contrary to the chanting scriptures, but it was as clear as a tiger among the beasts.

The Buddha's name was shaken, and the ear drum of Tongxuan and Heping in the distance suddenly shook. In an instant, my mind was blank. Although I woke up immediately, I couldn't help but change my color.

"This person's fruit is a great achievement of great merit. Is it true that the words are spoken?" Tong Xuan showed a hint of surprise and watched the group of people enter the hall.

Venerable Dixin stepped in and suddenly his whole body shook.

When I opened my eyes, I saw the rich dragon energy in the hall, which shocked a black dragon in my body - the black dragon in my body was only an inch, with its teeth and claws.

"It's almost the same as the emperor's aura?" Emperor Xin thought silently. Although his dragon energy was small, he first cultivated it with his dragon energy, and then absorbed a treasure close to the emperor, with a trace of authentic emperor's aura.

Now its reaction is almost quite good, which is not good news.

I thought to myself, but I didn't reveal it and entered the hall.

The hall used three hundred pillars to create a huge space, and thousands of people standing inside gave people a feeling of emptiness.

This hall can accommodate 3,000 or 6,000 monks and Taoists, and there are many disciples and followers watching the fun. Therefore, the backbone has more than 3,000 people to enter.

Wang Hongyi was not a stingy person in this regard. After this empty hall was finalized as a venue, Wang Hongyi issued an order to repair and clean up.

Now at first glance, the floor is all new. There is a brazier in the middle corridor every few meters, with a high platform on it, which is used for discussion on the stage, and there is a row of seats below, which are seated by monks and Taoists.

There are dense cushions below for monks and Taoists with lower status to use below, but there are vaguely separated by monks and Taoists.

When they arrived at the seat above, the monks around them stood up and clasped as a courtesy.

Venerable Dixin looked at the two monks and bowed together: "It turns out that the two senior brothers have arrived and are polite."

Both monks were in their fifties, with both beards and eyebrows, and their faces were solemn and peaceful. Their eyes were half open and half closed, and there was a clear light in their eyes. They clasped together: "Senior brother is polite."

After a separate seat, I sat down. After a while, with a whip, several officials came on stage and the hall suddenly became quiet...

Yu Liangbo went up and glanced at everyone. Now he was only about thirty years old. After so many years of practice, he became more and more profound and serious, and was not smiling. At this time, his luck was completely promoted to blue. Even when facing so many monks and Taoists, he did not feel any restraint or oppression. He said, "According to the will of the king, this Dharma meeting cannot be distinguished clearly, and the Taoist Taoists do not understand it. Therefore, I ask all monks and Taoists to explain their own Dharma to distinguish the high and low."

"If you have any temple, temple and viewing, and if you have a master prayer to be effective, or you have obtained the fruit of the Dharma, but you have not received the fruit, you can tell the above news from the Dharma Assembly. After the Dharma Assembly, you can verify it. The King's Association can be given special orders and granted the title according to the level."

"This is divided into four levels, first-level plus a seal, second-level plus a number, third-level plus a plaque, and fourth-level plus a gold!"

After saying this, the monks below immediately discussed.

The meaning of this is that you can determine the level of each sect by distinguishing it. And your master has achieved the right result, but there is no formal name. You can all mention it. As long as you are sure, you will have different degrees of additional seals.

This is an unprecedented grace, and for a moment, everyone was talking about it.

Even the holy monks couldn't help but clasp themselves and recited the Buddha's name lowly, feeling a little strange.
