935 The Way Jun Mo cultivates Buddha Dharma (2/2)

Jun Mo was so wise that he understood her intention immediately. He commented, ”It is a stupid way to cut off her ties with the human world.”

Ning Que sighed and said, ”I agree.”

Jun Mo asked, ”It seems that she has not found the way to return to the Divine Kingdom. What about you? Have you found a way to keep her in the world?”

Remembering what he was thinking in front of Chang'an, Ning Que answered, ”Not yet. I intended to come to Xuankong Temple to get some inspiration, but now it appears to be in vain.”

Is there not a way in this mortal world to embrace both my faith and my beloved? If there is any, it must be far more profound than the Buddha Dharma.

Jun Mo said, ”I observed the night moon these days and found that the Headmaster is struggling. If she ever goes back, the human world would be destroyed. So you have to be careful.”

Ning Que went silent for a while and said, ”If the day ever comes, I have no other choice but to make the final decision.”

Jun Mo said, ”That would be a breach of human relationship. You shouldn't do it.”

Ning Que said, ”You are a man with noble character, but I am not.”

Looking at the iron sword in his hand, Jun Mo thought about it and said, ”I still think it is wrong.”

Ning Que didn't want to discuss this issue and changed the subject. ”You have been in Xuankong Temple for some time. Seen anything new?”

Jun Mo raised his iron sword and pointed to the majestic mountain in the distance. ”This filthy place has nothing but filthy people and filthy things.”

Ning Que realized that he had asked a stupid question, for his Second Brother wouldn't have the mood to explore a place where the people who lived there suffered greatly. So he said, ”You must be very happy to preach and eliminate the bad people in the field.”

Jun Mo shook his head and said, ”I have been telling the stories in the Buddhist scriptures to the herdsmen and serfs these days. Today is the first time I have killed someone here.”

Ning Que was surprised. You hate Buddhism and monks the most. You didn't even read much Buddhist scriptures before, so how could you preach to these devoted Buddhist followers?

Jun Mo said, ”I have read some Buddhist scriptures in the Back Hill and read some more on the journey here. These herdsmen don't even know how to read. It is most effective to tell the simple stories.”

Ning Que praised him. ”The Buddhist scriptures must have dawned on you.”

Jun Mo said indifferently, ”In my opinion, the Buddhist scriptures are deceptive. How could I let it dawn on me?”

Ning Que was puzzled.

”The people here had lived underground for generations. They used their flesh and blood to worship Xuankong Temple, but they have never heard of anything about Buddha Dharma. So they were thrilled to listen to my preaching and treated me as a Guru.”

Looking at the field that gradually became cold and dark, Jun Mo's voice also gradually became colder. ”Buddha said he would love all human beings equally but treated people here as pigs and dogs. Buddhism said that inexhaustible meanings were contained in the Buddhist scriptures but even didn't allow its followers to read them. What is the difference between these Buddhist scriptures and wastepapers? What is the difference between the monks and liars?”

Ning Que asked, ”What's your next move?”

Jun Mo answered, ”I originally came here to cultivate Buddha Dharma, but I would have never thought that Buddha was so abominable. How could I meditate after seeing such a miserable underground world? These bold donkeys deserve to die”

Ning Que reminded him. ”Seventh Sister said we can't curse like this.”

Jun Mo touched his newly regrown hair gently and said, ”I can call them bold donkeys since my hair grew back.”

Ning Que agreed, ”You do have a point.”

Jun Ge looked up at the crescent moon and said, ”The Headmaster is fighting against Haotian. As his disciple, I should have helped him, but I don't have the power to go up to Heaven or to defeat her. All I can do is to serve the human world as the Academy should do. I shall destroy Xuankong Temple first.”

Ning Que praised him again. ”You are truly compassionate.”

Jun Mo turned around and said to him, ”I started killing today, and I must keep killing henceforth. I can't help you with your troubles for now.”

Ning Que knew that Second Brother injured the nobleman and allowed him to run away deliberately or else the nobleman would have been dead. Jun Mo's purpose was to draw more people back and kill them all.

”Killing the nobles will inevitably attract soldier monks, and killing the soldier monks will inevitably attract the Gurus and Living Buddhas. Eventually the Xuankong Temple will come after you. I am afraid you can't kill them all on your own.” Ning Que was a little worried.

”I told the herdsmen that if they have the courage, they can climb to the top no matter how high the cliff is. The same is true for killing. I can kill them all as long as I keep trying.” Jun Mo looked at the giant peak in the night and said, ”Look at the dark mountain over there. After I killed these dogs down here, I will climb up to the mountain peak, kill all the bold donkeys in the temple and set the mountain on fire.”

Ning Que praised Jun Mo again. ”Cultivating Buddha Dharma means eliminating Buddhism.”

Jun Mo said, ”No. Eliminating Buddhism is my way of cultivating Buddha Dharma”

Ning Que said, ”Or maybe it is what the compassion of Buddhism truly means.”

Jun Mo said, ”You are right. I will stick to my point even though Buddha has reborn and stands in front of me.”

Ning Que went silent for a while and said, ”Maybe Buddha…is still alive.”

”Don't be naughty.” Jun Mo replied, ”But I will kill Buddha if he were still alive.”

The Buddha Dharma that Jun Mo cultivated was meant to eliminate Buddhism.
