Chapter 164 The Dispute Between Taoism and Buddhism
After saying that, many guests also felt that it made sense and filed in.
After entering the door, I was surprised to find that this medical clinic was completely different from the drug stores I usually go to. As soon as I entered the door, I was greeted by a lobby with a wide view.
There is a sign not far from the door, noting the waiting room.
There is a long table directly in front, where the registration is done, and there are benches in front of it.
There are corridors on both sides of the lobby, and you can go upstairs. Shopkeeper Qian first took everyone to walk through them to find out the specific conditions of the medical clinic.
The entire attic is divided into rooms, including acupuncture room, bone setting room, fumigation room, medicine decoction room, etc. The divisions are clear and the division of labor is clear.
There are also departments such as ENT, pediatrics, and gynecology.
The guests present were both surprised and immediately understood the intention of doing so.
Saving people is like putting out fire, but there is no delay. If you do this, you can indeed save a lot of time.
Later, after seeing that there were free accommodation rooms specially provided for patients on the second and third floors, I became even more fond of this new medical center.
This medical center was originally designed by Yang Jiao to directly model the layout of a modern hospital in order to save trouble. The reason for building the medical center was also to accumulate merit and obtain tickets to enter the immortal realm in this world.
As shopkeeper Qian stood in front of everyone, he said loudly and proudly that the reason why the medical center was built in this way was because of what they said, Dr. Xu.
There is a saying that human life is of the utmost importance, and the most valuable thing is speed.
Therefore, adhering to the principle of treating diseases and saving lives as quickly as possible, this medical center is now here.
After three busy days of free clinic, everyone in the hospital had a good meal and drink that night.
Yang Jiao and Ba Liang returned to Xu's house together.
After walking a few steps, they encountered two green and white snakes who seemed to be waiting for them.
"Miss Bai, Miss Xiaoqing, long time no see, what are you doing?"
Ba Liang asked with a smile.
"Big Beard, my sister and I have collected eight tears of birth, old age, illness, death, love, hate and farewell."
Xiaoqing looked excited and said happily:
"Guanyin Bodhisattva has also appeared before, saying that my sister has perfected her merits and can ascend to immortality. She will be able to report to Nantianmen in a month."
When Ba Liang heard this, he couldn't help but laugh heartily, and quickly congratulated Bai Suzhen:
"Congratulations! After thousands of years of hard work, I finally got my wish and will soon achieve enlightenment and immortality."
"I never thought that one day I would have a fairy friend."
After saying that, he couldn't help but feel happy, but when he caught a glimpse of Yang Jiao's indifferent expression, he couldn't help but ask:
"Brother, it's a great thing for Miss Bai to become a Taoist and become an immortal. Why do you look like this?"
Ba Liang seemed to have thought of something and continued to speak:
"It's not like we'll never see each other again in the future. You have to know that you are only halfway to the Yang Shen realm. As long as you accumulate your merits to perfection, sooner or later, we will be able to meet again in heaven."
"I'm not going to heaven."
As soon as Yang Jiao said this, Bai Suzhen's joy faded and she immediately asked:
"Sir, why is this?"
"That's right, brother, don't let your mind wander!" Ba Liang also urged anxiously.
"I seek immortality in order to have more choices, and not going to heaven is my choice."
When Xiaoqing heard this, she was quite angry:
"Then there must be a reason. Do you know that my sister can go to Nantianmen today?"
"Qinger."
Bai Suzhen glared at Xiaoqing, and she suddenly became angry and fell silent.
"I know that I want to truly become an immortal and perfect my merits, so I have been thinking about what merits are?"
Yang Jiao looked around the three of them and said slowly:
"The three thousand external skills that we practitioners need to complete are the incense and desire power generated when we do good deeds to help others, and virtue is to do good deeds and accumulate virtue. After doing many good things for living beings in the world, we can improve our own luck. .”
"Only in this way, when merit and virtue are perfected together, heaven and earth will open up the opportunity for immortality."
"This is why we must have perfect merit and deeds before we can become immortals."
Ba Liang looked puzzled:
"But what does this have to do with whether you go to heaven or not?"
"However, becoming an immortal is only the first step in the path of immortality. If you want to accelerate your own cultivation level, you cannot do without the incense and desire power produced by mortals. Only by getting more luck in the world can you get it. More Heavenly Beloveds will lead to stronger strength and cultivation."
Xiaoqing couldn't bear it anymore:
"Xu Xian, please stop playing riddles."
"Heaven is the hub of the three realms, where the fortunes of heaven and earth gather. It contains countless disputes. The most important point is that there is a serious dispute between Taoism and Buddhism."
"So, for me, it's not a good place to practice at all."
"What I want now is that when my merits are complete and I officially step into the path of immortality, I can become a free-spirited immortal and meditate alone."
Suddenly, Ba Liang understood that wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, not to mention the gathering of humans, gods, ghosts and demons in the heaven.
However, Xiao Qing had some doubts:
"How can you, a mortal who has not become an immortal, see the conflict between Taoism and Buddhism?"
"Ask Miss Bai, did she encounter any difficulties when she went to the Taoist Sword Tomb to get the immortal sword according to Guanyin Bodhisattva's instructions?"
Yang Jiao smiled brightly.
"Yes, the veteran guarding the Sword Tomb first said that the Bai Yi Sword could not be mine. Then after I said that I was following the instructions of Guanyin Bodhisattva, his face became even more ugly. He also said that Guanyin Bodhisattva's words did not count and he took the initiative to move against me. Get started."
Bai Suzhen frowned slightly and recalled:
"In the end, I defeated him and when he nodded, he gave me the Bai Yi Sword, and also gave me an extra Green Rainbow Sword."
Yang Jiao chuckled and said:
"Isn't it obvious that if someone asks you for something and you are not willing to give it, your first thought should be to issue an order to expel the guest? Why would you take the initiative? Doesn't it show that Buddhism and Taoism are contradictory?"
"Perhaps in the eyes of the Taoist priest, when Miss Bai went to ask for the sword, she was a Buddhist provoking him. After all, if he handed over the sword without saying hello, it's nothing if not a provocation."
"Then why did he send two fairy swords to Miss Bai one after another?" Ba Liang scratched the back of his head.
"Perhaps it was because of Miss Bai's mercy that the old Taoist noticed that Miss Bai was not a true Buddhist, otherwise she would definitely embarrass him."
"There is also the old Taoist. After knowing that Miss Bai is the person initiated by Guanyin Bo, and after some competition, he has the idea of pulling her out of the Taoist camp."
"So, I simply sold it well, and if there were any disputes between Taoism and Buddhism in the future, Miss Bai would be grateful."
"It's all too complicated." Xiao Qing heard Snake Ren's pain.
Bai Suzhen smiled and said:
"Qing'er, you must know that there are no demons who have been transformed into immortals in the world, they are just low-level immortals compiled by heaven."
"And since I have been enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva and have a backer, I will naturally have corresponding opponents. This is cause and effect. If I want to gain something, I must naturally make sacrifices."
Suddenly, Yang Jiao seemed to remember something and solemnly reminded:
"Miss Bai, do you remember what Guanyin Bodhisattva said when he wanted to inspire you to become an immortal?"
