Today is a great day for Buddhism. If we can invite great people like you to come to the temple and discuss Buddhist teachings with us, it will be a grand event!
So my junior brother and I have come here to invite you to come to my temple to have another Buddhist exchange meeting. What do you think?"
The old bald donkey said with a smile that he looked harmless, but people around him always felt cold.
It's as if this old monk has been harboring evil intentions all along!
"Don't worry, benefactor. It's just a simple exchange. It won't attract much attention. Just think of it as a performance for the thousands of pilgrims in my temple. If it's inconvenient for you, then so be it."
Master Huiming at the side immediately added a sentence. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a shifty look. His smug expression made the solemnity of the Buddhist appearance disappear completely.
After hearing what the two old wizards said, the other people eating around them frowned slightly.
They all heard the news that the great master Miekong had come from afar and was now staying in the temple on the mountain.
Many people have seen with their own eyes this great Master Miekong display his divine power in other temples and he is also very famous among the people.
Now, why did the two masters Kong Huiming choose this time to come and communicate with Mr. Zhang Fan?
This doesn't seem like what they call a competition, it's more like a round-robin battle, or a deliberate attempt to pick a fight.
Last time, the two mages Huimin and Huikong lost face here and were completely subdued by Zhang Fan's methods.
He was also branded as someone who wanted to get something for nothing and seize other people's noodle shop business.
It has only been a short time, just half a month, and these two bald donkeys have secretly invited an expert to deliberately cause trouble for Mr. Zhang Fan.
This Master Miekong is no ordinary person!
In addition, there are many temples on the mountain today, and it is obvious that these two old guys have bad intentions.
Therefore, even the guests eating nearby began to look unhappy.
Even some pilgrims who originally wanted to climb the mountain to worship Buddha were disgusted by the behavior of these two old monks!
Buddhist and Taoist exchanges? This kind of thing is extremely rare.
Zhang Fan looked at the two old bald men who were setting a verbal trap in front of him, even using provocation and provocation, and showed an expression of interest.
A true practitioner of the Way is completely different from one who practices Buddhism!
A cultivator is good at protecting himself, and will try to influence others only within his ability.
As for these monks, they don't have much ability, but they brag about everything every day.
As far as Zhang Fan knew, the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism had already begun, and there were countless private fights.
But if it is a public occasion and they start to debate the way to amend the law, the Buddhist school will most likely win.
Part of the reason is because there are lotus flowers blooming outside the Buddha's door, and another part of the reason is that there are too few people practicing Taoism.
Nowadays, Buddhism is flourishing everywhere, but Taoism has only two or three big cats and small cats. The real Taoist masters all live in seclusion in the mountains, trying every means to improve their cultivation.
Originally, Zhang Fan had been at odds with Buddhism in the Three Realms. When he came to this world, he only wanted merit and power.
But he didn't expect that someone would come to him and want to compete with him, even though he was not a master of cultivation, and could even be called an extremely lazy cultivator with second-rate talent.
However, with his current level of cultivation and understanding of the Way of Heaven, he could probably beat these bald donkeys so badly that they wouldn't even be able to find their way back home with just a few words.
"It's really interesting, there are people who like to humiliate themselves?"
Zhang Fan smiled lightly in his heart.
"Okay!" He stood up from the chair, his face still showing the same gentle and elegant smile as before.
"Then I'll play with you guys and lead the way."
As soon as Zhang Fan said this, the two monks Huikong and Huiming showed their teeth.
Especially Master Huiming, who was not good at hiding his emotions, had a smug smile on his face.
The spectators around couldn't help but frown and look at Zhang Fan.
They didn't believe that Zhang Fan couldn't see that these two bald donkeys must have set a trap for him.
But why didn't Zhang Fan expose them, but was willing to step into this trap?
Could this be what it means when one is skilled, one is daring?
Everyone felt confused, but seeing Zhang Fan's nonchalant expression, as if he was confident about it, it was hard for them to dissuade him.
At this time, there was a commotion outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, a noble lady holding a child, led several other tall men and rushed into the noodle shop from outside.
"Mr. Zhang Fan, I came back from thousands of miles away because I was afraid that the bald donkey in the temple on the mountain would cause trouble for you. It turned out to be just as I expected!"
This woman was the noble lady who had scored the goal that day.
The child in the arms of the noble lady was also the little boy who was entangled by the starving ghost and almost died.
It was because of Zhang Fan’s intervention that the child was able to save his life.
Now this woman actually came here from thousands of miles away, which is undoubtedly a very touching thing.
The pilgrims around pointed at the child in the woman's arms and whispered to each other.
But without exception, there was no blame or disgust, but instead surprise in their eyes.
"The child is getting better, right?" Zhang Fan looked at the lady gently and asked softly.
"Thank you for your help, sir. The child has now returned to normal!"
Having said this, the lady turned to look at the two wizards and said angrily.
"Mr. Zhang, you can go up to the mountain to debate. Whether you win or lose, I am willing to bear your losses. Moreover, I will make public the fact that these two so-called monks shirked their responsibilities."
Upon hearing this, Master Huikong was shocked. He turned around and glared at the noble lady. It seemed that she wanted to quarrel with the noble lady in public in order to protect her own reputation.
Fortunately, the old monk still had some rationality. At the last moment, he retracted the ferocious expression on his face and smiled silently.
Seeing the old monk's behavior, the people around him felt that the old monk was scheming and was not a good person at first glance.
So naturally, they are more supportive of Zhang Fan.
"Don't worry, sir. We all believe in you. Even if you lose the debate today, we who witnessed you saving the child will not be disappointed in you. After all, eloquence is the symbol of Buddhism."
Upon hearing this, the two monks Huikong and Huiming were so angry that their teeth were about to break.
They couldn't understand why Zhang Fan didn't say anything when they clearly came to cause trouble for him. Instead, the ordinary people around them who had nothing to do with the matter stood up and repeatedly ruined their plans.
Even though the two admitted that they did not do their best to treat the noblewoman's child, they did not do anything bad. ?
