Chapter 662 Classic Zen Words from Later Generations

Xue Mei and Xiao Jingcheng separated at the entrance of the hall.

She casually found a little novice monk and asked him: "Have the abbot returned to the meditation room, or will he talk about scriptures to the princes?"

The little shaman chanted Amitabha Buddha first, and then replied: "The abbot has returned to the meditation room."

"Where is the Zen Room? Take me there." Xue Mei said.

The little novice monk did not refuse.

He was willing to lead the way, and Xue Mei was not surprised.

She knew someone was waiting for her.

The abbot's meditation room is in the courtyard group west of Cuiwei Temple.

The little shaman took Xue Mei through the stone path and went up the road, and finally arrived at a house.

It is located relatively high, overlooking the entire Cuiwei Temple. A wooden fence is used next to the Danban at the door to prevent anyone from sliding into the valley and leaving no bones.

The little novice monk shouted to the abbot outside the door: "The person has brought it."

Then, he stepped down respectfully.

Xue Mei pushed open the door.

Sandalwood lingers and tea fragrance lingers.

The handsome monk sat alone, with a tea set in front of him, and he was making tea carefully.

Xue Mei sat down opposite him.

"The princess knows that I am looking for you?" The monk spoke first, breaking the Zen technique, and the fragrance in the room suddenly became less fairy-like.

"The mage must come to me," Xue Mei smiled, "Don't the mage ask about your chronic illness, uncle Ling's illness, and Miss Cheng's heart disease?"

Master Michen: "...Everyone says Princess Chengyang is smart, you are indeed the only one in heaven and earth. The princess is keen and intelligent, and no one can match it."

"Give me too much." Xue Mei said, "The mage politely praised me like this, as if he was trying to kill me."

Master Michen: “…”

Faced with such a difficult Princess Chengyang, if you want to tell her exactly what she means, you should not be too polite.

Master Michen discusses Zen with Xue Mei.

Xue Mei does not understand Zen, but there are many classic Zen words in later generations, and she can choke Master Michen.

For example, the Zen words of Master Huineng in the Tang Dynasty, Xue Mei directly mentioned them when Master Michen was talking in a mess.

"Master, I have a question that I can't answer so far. If you can solve it for me, I will never get involved in your affairs with Miss Cheng Lanqing." Xue Mei said.

Master Michen: “…”

She still told this out.

"What's the problem with the princess?"

"Sometimes I see the wind blowing the banners, is it the wind moving, or the banner moving?" Xue Mei asked him.

Master Michen was stunned.

This classic Zen phrase is actually a classic philosophy problem, and it can make people feel embarrassed.

If you can't answer it, Mi Chen may not be able to do it, and he will be shameless in this monk's robe.

Seeing that his face became more and more serious, Xue Mei picked up the tea and took another sip.

The more Mi Chen thought about it, the more anxious he looked, and even a little confused he murmured: "Is it the wind or the banner?"

Xue Mei stood up without waiting for him to have a result and said, "Master Michen, I will say goodbye first. If you still haven't come up with the result in three days, I'll give me two flame birds and I'll tell you the answer."

Master Mi Chen bit his back teeth: "The princess teased the monks, but this question has no solution."

"There is an explanation." Xue Mei said, "I have never teased you."

After saying that, she walked out.

Standing on Danban, Xue Mei overlooked the entire Cuiwei Temple and could even see the river city not far away and the river surrounded by mountains.

She was relaxed and happy when she climbed up to look far away.

Xue Mei and others stayed in Cuiwei Temple for two days. Then, they never saw Master Michen again.

Xue Chi asked once, and the little monk actually said, "The abbot is practicing meditation."

Xue Chi: "..."

A distinguished guest came to the mountain, what kind of Zen practice?

When most people hear this, they think they have offended the abbot, so the abbot avoids it?

Xue Mei knew the whole story very well.

She told her elder brother about what happened to Cheng Lanqing that day: "Cheng Lanqing was determined to force A Meng to reveal her flaws. In order to help A Meng, I had to point out this secret.

In fact, hiding the secret is more beneficial to us. This will make the enemy clear and the enemy will have an advantage. In the future, it will be appropriate to make use of it properly, and this Cuiwei Temple is a good place."

Xue Chi: "You even plan for the monk?"

"It's not that I have to plot against the outsider, but that he has been involved in Cheng Lanqing's affairs, so I didn't treat him as an outsider." Xue Mei smiled.

Xue Chi couldn't help laughing.

When Xue Mei was in trouble, it seemed very interesting to him.

Of course, the mage may be crying now.

"...Your question has no answer, right?" Xue Chi asked again.

Xue Mei: "Since I am willing to plot against him, I will definitely have an answer. If there is no answer, it will be a pity for him, which is not a success."

Xue Chi: "What is the answer?"

"Brother can practice Zen by himself." Xue Mei said, "If you understand, your realm will be different."

Xue Chi: "You even want to plot against me?"

"You're talking too much." Xue Mei said.

Xue Chi: "..."

He used to say very little.

When did he become like this? Perhaps after spending a long time with Xue Mei, he was long-winded and vulgar. In the past, his words were very concise.

He won't ask any more questions.

Xue Mei and the others walked around the mountain. Everyone copied the scriptures and worshipped them in front of the Buddha. When they were waiting for Concubine De’s birthday, they were sent to the palace from Cuiwei Temple.

After the matter is done, they are going to go down the mountain.

Xue Mei asked the young monk to find Master Michen and deliberately asked him if he had understood it.

"I'm leaving. The master has understood it and sent someone to tell me. If I can't understand it, I can also send someone to ask me for the answer." Xue Mei smiled.

She was irritated.

I guess if Master Michen cannot understand this answer, he will not come out of seclusion.

Xue Mei couldn't help laughing.

Michen suddenly went into seclusion and left everything about Cuiwei Temple. Master Changjue, who was originally going to seclusion, had to come out temporarily and manage the temple instead of his nephew.

Master Changjue may have been working hard. At night, he felt heavy and weak limbs, his brain was dizzy, and even his chest was aching.

Master Michen was still meditating, but it suddenly rained heavily that night.

Heavy rain filled the hall, accompanied by strong winds.

The monks are blocking doors and windows to prevent heavy rain from coming in and flooding the Buddha statue.

Master Chang Jue planned to go out and supervise the disciples, but suddenly his hands were weak and his arms seemed to be suddenly removed; and his legs could not support his body, so he fell down with a clang.

The monks turned around and were shocked to see this scene.

The abbot suddenly practiced Zen, the teacher's uncle fainted, and the dragon group had no head.

"Go and call the abbot. At this time, what else can I practice? "

"If the abbot does not break this Zen opportunity, he will not come out. He hasn't left there for several days."

"What kind of Zen is that, can't we help us to explain it together?"

"When I see the wind blowing, is the banner moving, is it the wind moving, or the banner moving?" Someone mentioned the problem raised by Xue Mei.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Really tricky.

But what should I do if my teacher uncle?

The monks helped Master Chang Jue to lie down, and then wandered around Michen again.

Michen had a premonition that something was wrong.

He sighed softly.

With such a sigh, he completely defeated his efforts and admitted defeat. His Zen practice failed this time.

He didn't come up with the answer.
