"Me?" Ye Chenfeng was surprised. Master Huiwen seemed to be very interested in him.W w★W .

Master Huiwen's move made everyone's eyes focus on Ye Chenfeng again, especially Kong Hai, with his pair of star-like eyes looking straight at Ye Chenfeng.
His sharp eyes actually made Ye Chenfeng feel the pressure, and he felt stripped naked in front of Kōkai.
Everyone looked over, and Ye Chenfeng couldn't refuse Master Huiwen's face, and couldn't help saying, "Although in the Buddhist sect, everyone will respond to their requests. But the key is to understand the principles and seek money in a reasonable and lawful way. Burning incense into ashes means selfless dedication, which is what Buddhism calls "giving".
This tells us: from the birth of seeking wealth and blessings, we must first give up wealth and sow blessings. Giving wealth is the cause, getting wealth is the result. Giving abandon is the cause, getting is the result, giving up is the result. Therefore, a person’s blessings are cultivated by himself, not given to you by Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
Buddhism often says: "Fate is created by oneself, and blessing is obtained by oneself." Is burning big incense a great fortune? This is purely "to save the belly of all Buddhas with the heart of ordinary people." How can all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas who have achieved great enlightenment and compassion, be like ordinary people, care about your big incense and small incense and give them wealth separately? Of course not."
When Ye Chenfeng finished speaking, the scene seemed to be in a state of solidification, and almost everyone's expressions were frozen.
Among the people whose expression was frozen was Kūkai, while Master Huiwen on the stage nodded repeatedly, with a full sense of appreciation in his eyes.
"Kami's doubts were solved. I didn't expect that this little donor's Buddha nature was so high. I'm afraid he was a master of Master Huiwen, right? He was also a legendary lay disciple." Kamiami asked.
Ye Chenfeng smiled: "Master Konghai may not have listened carefully. Master Huiwen just called me the donor, so I must not be his apprentice anymore."
"So that's the case, it's Kūkai's fault. Since the little donor's Buddha nature is so high, I wonder if the little donor can solve another doubt for Kūkai?" Kūkai turned his target to Ye Chenfeng.
"Master Kakukai, please speak?"
"It is said that evil people put down their butcher's knife and became Buddhas on the spot, but they have to go through eighty-one difficulties for the sake of good people?" asked Kooka.
As soon as these words came out, everyone present began to discuss in a low voice.
"What do you think about this issue?"
"In my understanding, the eighty-one difficulties are for saving others, but becoming a Buddha is for saving oneself."
"I feel that this is a kind of moral kidnapping. For example, if someone does good things all his life, but then does something bad, others will say he is a hypocrite. For example, if someone does bad things all his life, but later does something good, others will say he is a prodigal son and turn back."
"You're right. I agree with you. It feels like that's the truth."
"But what we said doesn't seem to be about the idea. Just look at the bad smile of the Japanese monk."
...
Now even the monks in the temple have become serious, and they are also thinking about this issue.
Especially those younger monks, I must have heard these two sentences, but I have never studied the hidden Buddhist principles.
Seeing their performance, Kōkai's smile became stronger and he couldn't help but say, "Kōkai won't ask you for advice on this question by Master Huiwen. There are many people who say these two sentences in Shenzhou. I believe there are many people who can solve Kōkai's doubts, right? Dear Buddhist friends?"
Kūkai cast his eyes on the other monks, but no one responded to him.
No one responded to him, and Kōki became proud and subconsciously stroked his left hand with his middle and index fingers with his right hand.
Concubine Chu Qing even snorted coldly: "Hmph, this Japanese monk is clearly here to kick the house. Asking such a question is purely a difficult person. Just the question just now, in addition to making things difficult for others, he also secretly satirized the greed of the people of China. Burning incense and worshiping Buddha is to seek wealth or do private affairs, and it is not as pure as Buddhism in their country."
Chu Renkuang was also a straightforward person and agreed, "Your analysis is very thorough, this Japanese monk is here to kick the restaurant. Whatever comes to China to appreciate the profound Buddhist teachings is all about it."
Ye Chenfeng was amused and laughed when he heard the conversation between the grandfather and grandson, but Kōhai was really here to kick the kid.
"Little donor, what do you think? This doubt has been entangled in Konghai's heart for a long time." Konghai looked at Ye Chenfeng and asked.
"Actually, it's very simple. It's the difference between gradual enlightenment and sudden enlightenment as Buddhism calls it." Ye Chenfeng smiled and said, "Of course this is just some of my simple views. Buddhism is so simple that I haven't even touched some of the fur." Ye Chenfeng added.
"The difference between gradual enlightenment and sudden enlightenment?"
Everyone present was confused, and most of them didn't know why Ye Chenfeng's simple answer.
Master Huiwen smiled and smiled at Kōkai, "Can the doubts in the hearts of Buddhist friends be resolved?"
Kong Hai was still immersed in Ye Chenfeng's answer, pondered for a moment, and nodded, "Thank you for your answer to the doubts. The Buddhist teachings in China are indeed profound. The donor selected by Master Huiwen has such a Buddha nature. Today, Kong Hai's eyes wide opens."
"It's amazing, it's still Master Huiwen is amazing!"
"That's right, the people who were randomly selected easily responded to the difficult problem of Kōkai."
"Haha, Master Huiwen's eyes are as sharp as a torch. Now the Japanese monk is stunned? He must have thought that each of us is a Buddha."
...
Everyone was discussing it, but most of them were amazed by Ye Chenfeng.
Who is Ye Chenfeng?
This is a doubt in everyone's mind. Master Huiwen actually valued him so much, and he solved the two problems raised by Kōkai.
"A ordinary donor has studied Buddhism to this level. I believe that the long-rumored Buddhist martial arts in Shenzhou will definitely surprise Kōkai. Master Huiwen wondered if Kōkai could ask about the advanced martial arts of Shenzhou Buddhism?" Kōkai's face changed and he finally said.
Master Huiwen smiled: "Friends of Buddha, I have said that Buddhism has come from the same lineage, so it is natural for Buddhist friends to learn about it. Besides, Master Konghai, the close disciple of the Buddhist demon of the Zhenyan Sect. I have long heard that Master Konghai has become a saint with martial arts, and it is no problem to open a monument and split a stone. Take this opportunity to see the strength of his Buddhist friends."
When he revealed the identity of Kōhai in one sentence, everyone was shocked. Although he didn't know how powerful Kōhai was, the title of Buddha Demon in the Shinyan Sect was really scary.
"Can the nickname Buddha Demon be fooled? Haha!" Ye Chenfeng smiled. Of course, he didn't know Buddha Demon. Compared with Japan, he knew people like the Black Sun God.
