"Mr. Su, let's sit down and discuss the Dharma. If you can convince me then it would mean that Xiao Zhi has followed a Buddhist Great Master who is more intelligent than me and is one step closer to the Buddha and I would have no reason to punish him." Abbot Xu Yun smiled as he spoke.
Grandmaster Shengyan and several other eminent monks were surprised to hear the words of Abbot Xu Yun. However, they were soon relieved. In fact, they were hesitating about whether they should punish Xiao Zhi.
Su Jing intervened, which made them a little dissatisfied, but considering that Su Jing had given them the Prajñā Meditation Sutra, and the Buddha-Nature that Su Jing showed just now while meditating at the door was enough for them to give him special treatment.
"How dare I discuss the Dharma with Abbot Xu Yun, Wouldn't I look like a fool? Besides, it seems to me that there is a lot to be said about it. Why don't we have a meditation contest and see who can sit longer and listen to who wins?" Su Jing smiled.
Hearing this, Grandmaster Shengyan, Zhou Hongyuan, Xiao Zhi, Xiaohui, and the others were all stunned.
Su Jing actually wants to sit in meditation compared to Abbot Xu Yun, who can sit longer than him, he is the Abbot, and he spends most of his time sitting in Meditation, isn't this too much? This is Xuyun Abbot, who can turn into a stone when he sits, and stay motionless all day long.
"Hehe, interesting, then let's do as you say." Abbot Xu Yun agreed happily and pointed to the futon in front. Su Jing walked over and sat down facing Abbot Xu Yun. The two of them sat cross-legged, closed their eyes, and then remained motionless.
The others waited, they didn't expect that Su Jing and the Abbot would start talking about sitting in meditation, and for a while, everyone didn't dare to speak up.
Some young monks couldn't help but mutter in their hearts, they are really sitting in meditation, how long would this sit last?
The tourists who were blocked at the door heard the words inside, and they were shocked when they saw the situation inside.
"What's the matter, why did they suddenly sit down and stop talking?"
"I heard that Abbot Xu Yun wanted to punish Xiao Zhi, but Su Jing disagreed, and then the two started a meditation competition."
"What Competition?"
"They would see who sits longer."
"What the hell, what a boring game."
"Does Su Jing have a chance of winning? Although Su Jing seems to understand Buddhism very well, his opponent is the Abbot."
"I suddenly remembered that in Journey to the West, didn't Monk Tang also compete with a sheep in Zen meditation, and it turned out to be Sun Wukong and some other monster and they competed while using their supernatural power, will Su Jing secretly do some tricks, such as putting some little bug and let them bite Abbot Xu Yun?"
"My God, your idea is so evil, but I like it."
There was a lot of chatter outside, and there was gradually a commotion inside, because Xiao Zhi, Xiaohui, Zhou Hongyuan, and others were not very advanced in their studies, and they couldn't hold back.
It was very difficult to stay completely still. Grandmaster Shengyan and several people even prepared to lead everyone to retire. It seems that Su Jing's studies in Buddism are not shallow, and he can't tell the difference between him and Abbot for a while, so there is no need for everyone to stay here.
At this moment, several people who looked at Su Jing and Abbot Xu Yun cried with a surprised expressions on their faces and rubbed their eyes vigorously.
Grandmaster Shengyan and several eminent monks looked over and stood up suddenly with a shocked expressions on their faces. More and more people noticed the abnormality and were dumbfounded.
Because they seem to have seen the illusion that Su Jing had turned into a stone without them knowing about it and that illusion got stronger and stronger.
After taking a closer look, they could see that it was Su Jing. Abbot Xu Yun was just as quiet as a stone, but Su Jing seemed to be turning into a stone.
"How is it possible?" Grandmaster Shengyan and the others were shocked and couldn't believe it, it was even more incredible than entering meditation and becoming a Buddha.
"Huh?" Abbot Xu Yun also suddenly opened his eyes. Naturally, he didn't sit still so quickly, but felt an abnormality and was shocked. In order to verify his conjecture, he was willing to give up the game.
The moment he opened his eyes, he felt that it was worth it. He stared at Su Jing for a long time, and suddenly put his hands together and said: "Amitabha, I have lost."
"What's the matter, why did the Abbot suddenly admit defeat."
"I almost saw Su Jing turn into a stone just now, am I hallucinating?"
The monks who are not high in cultivation and the tourists outside the door are all unclear. They thought that this Zen meditation competition would last for a long time, and many of them couldn't bear it anymore and left first.
They didn't expect that Abbot Xu Yun would suddenly admit defeat, and the competition ended so inexplicably.
"Abbot Xu Yun, the game has only just started, why did you admit defeat?" Su Jing opened his eyes and smiled as he spoke.
"If we go on, I'll definitely lose. I know that you would be able to sit for at least three days and three nights." Abbot Xu Yun looked at Su Jing, unable to hide his reverence, and asked, "Mr. Su, can you tell me what exactly is it?"
"I have learned a lot about Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism." Su Jing said some preprogrammed words. He couldn't say that he practiced The Way of Silence, which was passed down from Xieyue's Three Star Cavern Ancestor Subhuti.
Sitting for three days and three nights? I'm sorry, that's just trivial for me, I can sit for seven days and seven nights.
Recently, of course, he has not neglected The Way of Silence, and he has become more and more sophisticated in its use. This is the biggest trump card for cultivating the spirit and soul and even the Supreme Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva Scripture is not comparable to it.
And Su Jing feels that the more he integrates into The Way of Silence, the more he can comprehend the Supreme Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva Scripture. It is precisely because of this that he has made some progress in it.
Su Jing has begun to understand the true meaning of the Supreme Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva Scripture. When he meditated at the door just now, he felt like a Bodhisattva, which is a natural Buddhist Artistic Conception.
Moreover, when meditating on the Supreme Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva, Su Jing clearly felt that the growth of his Divine Soul had begun to accelerate.
With the same spiritual force, the power he could put out had suddenly grown by a lot. Su Jing had also started to get his bearings in the Dragon-Elephant Law Seal.
