MM Racing Chapter 44 Chaos!
Chapter 44 Chaos!
These words were spoken.
Although the old monk Miaoguang's face did not change much, there was a subtle ripple in the depths of his eyes.
His speech has become a little slow.
It was just that momentary slowness.
This gave Zhong Yuan a certainty that Old Zhong must have spoken with the old monk Miaoguang.
Otherwise, the Heart King Sutra, a secret technique that only the leaders of the Ming Cult could cultivate, could not be practiced by the Venerable Master Miaoguang solely because of his relationship with Dugu Xian as fellow disciples.
In addition, his status as the young master was given to him so easily.
Although the old monk kept saying it was because Dugu Xian had said his talent was extraordinary.
However... these reasons are probably not that compelling in the face of the Ming Cult's rules.
Just like the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth," only the leader and candidates for the leader can cultivate it.
Moreover, only the cult leader can view the entire text.
The Heart Sutra and the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth complement each other; how could they not receive equal treatment?
Without Lao Zhong's personal approval.
How could the Venerable Master Miaoguang dare to take out the Heart Sutra so easily?
now.
Chung Yuen's mind was clear, and he became increasingly curious about Old Chung.
His father is a real actor.
Whether it was when they first met at Bangyuan Cave, or when they casually brushed aside the passage of the "Mingzun's Decree" scripture.
Later, he pretended to be reckless and wanted to step down.
I almost fooled myself.
But why did he choose to play himself?
Could it be that they wanted to use this method to make him stand out in the Ming Cult and gradually gain the recognition of the people in the cult?
Zhong Yuan took a deep breath and didn't delve into it further. After all, Old Zhong had no intention of harming him; everything he did was paving the way for him.
at this time.
The old monk Miaoguang, who had been slow to react for a moment, smiled faintly.
"Back then, Master Zhong naturally came to see the Heart King Sutra, but unfortunately, Master Zhong's obsession was too deep."
"In the end, it was not completed."
Zhong Yuan nodded slightly, and as he watched the old monk Miaoguang turn to leave, he suddenly spoke again.
"Zen Master."
"You probably haven't practiced the Heart King Sutra before."
The moment Zen Master Miaoguang turned around, upon hearing these words, a fleeting look of astonishment crossed his face.
He then turned to his head and asked, "Young Master, what makes you say that?"
Zhong Yuan smiled faintly.
"With the Zen master's open-mindedness and clear-mindedness, even if he cannot cultivate the Heart King Sutra to a high level."
"But it's still possible to repair even a part of it."
"But...the Zen master did not practice it."
"But is it because of the constraints of the Ming Cult's rules?"
Master Miaoguang looked slightly embarrassed, then clasped his hands and said, "Young Master truly has a discerning mind."
Zhong Yuan smiled nonchalantly and said only one sentence.
"The Zen Master's acting is not as good as Dugu Xian's, and even less so than Lao Zhong's."
Immediately, holding the Heart Sutra, he sat down upright, closed his eyes, and held his breath.
Upon seeing this, Zen Master Miaoguang breathed a sigh of relief and quickly left.
After going downstairs.
Master Miaoguang glanced back at the Sutra Repository and said to the martial monks guarding the side, "Send some vegetarian meals and tea outside the fourth-floor door this afternoon."
The two monks responded respectfully.
Master Miaoguang turned and left with a dignified expression, but he was secretly muttering to himself.
This young cult leader is truly cunning.
His ability to read people's expressions and moods is also first-rate.
He realized that he was unable to cultivate the Heart King Scripture because of the constraints of the teachings, but he had indeed not crossed the threshold of the Heart King Scripture.
When he was young, he had read the Heart Sutra. The reason he could not cultivate it and could not achieve enlightenment even after 60 years was true, and it was also true that he was bound by the rules of the sutra.
No wonder he's the son of Master Zhong.
It truly is a case of the student surpassing the teacher.
Moreover, it seems that this young master Zhong has already realized the arrangements made behind the scenes by the sect leader Zhong.
Could it be that my acting is really inferior to Dugu Xian's?
impossible!
I'm not much different from Dugu Xian!
If there's anything lacking, it's that he doesn't wear a mask.
That's it.
In any case, he has already completed the task assigned by Master Zhong.
The Ming Cult has truly produced a genius.
What Master Zhong cannot do, Young Master may be able to do in time.
The day when the Ming Cult reaches its zenith and glory is not far off.
As for the matter between the father and son, that has nothing to do with me!
……
Inside the Sutra Repository.
Zhong Yuan closed his eyes, not feeling hungry or thirsty, and continued to enter a meditative state.
Once he entered that mystical state, everything in the outside world seemed to have no relation to Zhong Yuan.
He sat there, motionless, his face radiant, with a faint glow of precious light flowing through it.
……
The third quarter of the hour of Si (9:45 AM).
Many people had already gathered in the large square of the Mahavira Hall inside Shuanglin Temple.
Amidst the bustling crowd, Zen Master Miaoguang emerged from the main hall, surrounded by a throng of monks.
They took their seats at the head of the table and began reciting the Diamond Sutra and the Nirvana Sutra.
The monks of Shuanglin Temple sat around the perimeter, surrounded by incense smoke, chanting in unison.
On both sides, Buddhist disciples from various places also silently recited the mantra.
Chanting scriptures during the Dharma assembly is a necessary procedure.
After reciting the scriptures, the Dharma talk begins.
As the convener of this Dharma assembly, Zen Master Miaoguang sat at the head of the table, speaking eloquently and clearly.
"Two trees suddenly burst into white blossoms, the earth trembled violently, and the Eight Legions of Heavenly Dragons wailed in agony..."
Among the crowd, some pilgrims nodded frequently as they listened, though it was unclear whether they understood or not.
at this time.
At the far end of the crowd, there were two figures dressed in monks' robes and with monks' hats covering their heads.
The two women had identical faces, one with a feminine appearance and the other with delicate features. A few strands of hair peeked out from the corner of their monk's hats.
Clearly, he was not a proper monk.
The two men scanned their surroundings, looking around at the crowd.
The two then exchanged a glance and secretly retreated.
Not long after.
Walk to that deserted corner.
The monk standing on the left said in a low voice, "Indeed, we did not see any monks from Tenryu-ji Temple."
"Sister, shouldn't we go to Yiwu City and keep watch?"
The monk on the right whispered, "I have a feeling there's something fishy about this Shuanglin Temple ceremony."
"With so many monks staying in Shuanglin Temple, it wouldn't be difficult for the monks of Tianlong Temple to hide themselves."
"Chrysanthemum Sword, go and prepare to make your move."
"How can you know the answer if you don't try?"
These two were none other than Zhu Jian and Ju Jian, two of the four maids Mei Lan Zhu Ju.
Melanie is dead.
The two volunteered to stay near Shuanglin Temple to search for clues.
Ju Jian nodded and quietly ran towards the firewood shed in the temple.
Not long after.
Thick smoke was rising from the woodshed of Shuanglin Temple.
As soon as the thick smoke rose, a young monk came and shouted for help to put out the fire.
In a short time.
The Dharma assembly was forced to be suspended.
In the main square, a group of monks from Shuanglin Temple, led by their abbot, went to fight the fire.
A sense of panic arose from the scene.
Seeing this, Zen Master Miaoguang could only instruct the monks to arrange for the pilgrims and fellow Buddhists to leave the temple.
Just then.
Suddenly, a shout came from outside the temple.
"Young Master Yan has arrived!!!"
……
I don't know how much time passed.
Inside the Sutra Repository.
Zhong Yuan was awakened by the smell of smoke. He opened his eyes and heard the incessant sounds of weapons clashing outside the Sutra Pavilion.
