Chapter 588: The Old Monk's Zen
Li Zhi had a dream, a very evocative, thoughtful, and elusive dream, in the dream, Li Zhi went to a place, a place that controlled time and space, controlled the thousands of faces, and controlled everything in the world.
In that mysterious place, there is a chair, a huge metal chair, as long as he sits on it, he can control this cosmic plane, control the world, control all living beings, let these beings serve him, and be enslaved by him!
In the dream, Li Zhi didn't remember whether he had sat on the supreme ancient metal throne, only remembered that the chair was very ancient, and it exuded an aura of eternity, decay, and decay.
"Wake up!"
When she opened her eyes, Mu Xiaomei was blinking her eyes and looking at him playfully.
Li Zhi grinned and said, "What time is it?" Why didn't you wake me up when you woke up!"
"You sleep like a pig, how can you wake up?" Mu Xiaomei said with a smile: "It's not too late, it's not even nine o'clock!"
For the 9-to-5 office workers, this time is already on the way to the company, and for those who are 'lazy', it is indeed not too late.
Li Zhi laughed, Mu Xiaomei must have deliberately not woken herself up, her little caution would definitely not be able to hide from Li Zhi.
sat up, looked at Mu Xiaomei and asked, "What are your plans for today?"
"I'll go to class in a while, I'm a good student, I have a class today!" Mu Xiaomei said with a smile, she knew that Li Zhi was a busy person with a lot of things, and she definitely couldn't accompany herself all day long like before.
She doesn't want that, as long as he lives for a few days, he can come over to see himself, don't forget about himself, it's enough.
"That's right, Zhuge Meili called you in the morning and said that she had something very important to look for you. Mu Xiaomei said.
Zhuge is beautiful?
Li Zhi thought it was because of the matter of the 'Red Rain Meat Joint Factory', so he was not in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Got it!"
"Don't you have to call her back?" Mu Xiaomei sat up and asked with a smile.
Li Zhi shook his head and said with a smile: "No, if there is really an emergency, she knows to call me again!"
"You!" Mu Xiaomei rolled his eyes, got up from the bed, and walked towards the bathroom to wash.
The sun is getting high, it's long overdue!
"Boss, Miss Zhuge Meili called again, do you want to answer?" The interstellar watch in his hand flashed, and Xiaoice appeared in front of him and asked.
Compared with the 'smart watch T' manufactured by the Ice Soul mobile phone company, the interstellar watch that Li Zhi bought from the Interstellar Business Alliance is more advanced.
"Take it!"
Li Zhi leaned on the head of the bed and said.
The video call was connected, Zhuge Meili looked at Li Zhi who was leaning on the head of the bed, with his upper body in a red state, stunned, frowned, and said unhappily: "I've been calling you since the morning, why haven't you answered it now?" What time is it, you haven't gotten up yet, are you a pig?"
Li Zhi rolled his eyes and said angrily: "If you have something to say, get out of here, it's useless to talk to you if you don't have time!"
Zhuge Meiqi's teeth are itchy, and there is nothing to be done.
took a deep breath, barely calmed down his mood of being angry, and glared at Li Zhidao: "Someone asked me to bring you a message to Boss Li, he wants to see you!"
"Who do you want to see me?" Li Zhi was stunned and asked curiously, he thought that Zhuge Meili wanted to say that the matter of 'Red Rain Meat Factory' was done, and he wanted to ask himself for money!
"Old Monk Zhiweng!"
"Who?" Li Zhi sat up from the bed.
Zhuge Meili snorted, she really didn't want to talk to the other party, if it weren't for the other party's big coming, she wouldn't have anything to say to this guy!
"Zen Master Zhi Weng, one of the few high monks and living Buddhas!" Zhuge Meili explained.
High monks, living Buddhas?
Li Zhi couldn't understand why this 'Zhiweng Zen Master' wanted to see him? Everyone didn't seem to know each other, right?
frowned, and said, "Can you explain the words?"
Zhuge Meili stared at Li Zhidao: "Zen Master Zhiweng has a feeling in his heart, he has not long been in the world, and before leaving, I want to see you!"
After a little hesitation, he couldn't help but say: "Zen Master Zhi Weng is different from others, he is a living Buddha, perhaps, he can save you!"
"Save me?" Li Zhi couldn't help laughing and said, "In this world, is there anyone who can save me?"
Zhuge Meili looked at Li Zhi and said quietly: "Maybe there is!"
"See, or not, give me a clear word, and I'll get better and give it to others!" Zhuge Meili said.
"See you!"
I don't know why, Li Zhi didn't refuse.
Zhuge Meili breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, you are there, I will send someone to pick you up now, let's move faster, there is not much time!"
"College town!"
Li Zhi hung up Zhuge Meimei's video call, frowned, looked at Xiaoice beside him and asked, "Is there any information about 'Zhiweng Zen Master'?"
"Yes!"
Xiaoice directly took out what Li Zhi wanted to see.
After Li Zhi finished reading it, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then got up from the bed.
"Is there something wrong?" Mu Xiaomei came out of the bathroom after washing.
"Hmm!" Li Zhi looked at her handsome and beautiful little appearance, couldn't help but bow his head and kiss her on the face, hehe smiled and said, "It's so fragrant!"
"I hate it, I haven't brushed my teeth, I stink to death!" Mu Xiaomei blushed and smashed him with a pink fist.
The atmosphere is very ambiguous, and after knowing each other for so long, this pink tone has never dissipated, perhaps this has something to do with the efforts of both of them to maintain it.
Mu Xiaomei is gone, this is very far from the campus of Haida University, there is no need for Li Zhi to send it at all, she will have a class in a while.
Zhuge Meili personally came to pick up Li Zhi.
After getting in the car, Zhuge Meili looked at Li Zhi and asked, "Come to the university town to pick up a little girl again?"
Li Zhi was too lazy to take care of her, and asked curiously: "Why did Zen Master Zhiweng think of it and want to see me?"
Zhuge Meili shook her head and said: "How do I know this, Zen Master Zhiweng's Taoism is several times higher than mine, and everything he knows there is a heavenly machine!
As she spoke, Zhuge Meili gave a thumbs up.
For 'Zen Master Zhiweng', it can be seen that Zhuge is also very convincing.
"Hey, I really don't want the old monk to die!" Zhuge Meili was quite happy at first, but then she didn't know why, she leaned back in the seat and became a little silent, and her eyes were red.
"Do you know Zen Master Zhiweng?" asked Li Zhi.
Zhuge Meili nodded and said, "When I was very young, I knew the old monk and plucked his beard. ”
"Where is Zen Master Zhiweng now?" Li Zhi frowned.
"Little Leiyin Temple!"
Li Zhi didn't ask where Xiao Leiyin Temple was, followed Zhuge Meili directly to the airport, and then took a special plane and went to Hangzhou.
Another helicopter!
Along the way, Li Zhi didn't ask much, and Zhuge Meili didn't talk as much as before because she wasn't in a good mood.
The helicopter stopped in front of a quaint temple, and Li Zhi and Zhuge Meili walked down together.
"This is Xiaoleiyin Temple?" Li Zhi looked at the temple gate and asked.
Zhuge Meili also raised her head, looked at it and nodded, and said: "Yes, this is Xiaoleiyin Temple, one of the few places in the world where the true scriptures are still stored!"
"True scripture?" Li Zhi was stunned.
And Zhuge Meili didn't pay attention to him, and walked directly towards the temple gate.
Li Zhi thought about it, followed behind, and also walked in.
"Miss Zhuge , please stay!"
A gray-clothed bald little monk stopped Zhuge Meili and Li Zhi.
"What are you doing?" Zhuge Meili glared at the little monk and said angrily: "I want to go in to see the old monk, and you have to stop me?"
The little monk seemed to be a little afraid of Zhuge Meimei, shook his head, and said a little timidly: "It's not the little monk who wants to stop you, it's the family teacher who ordered you to stay!"
"Why?" Zhuge Meimei glared and asked with a little redness: "Miss Ben wants to see the old monk for the last time, can't she?"
Alas!
The gray-clothed little monk sighed, shook his head and said: "The family teacher said that he no longer wants to be dyed in the dust, come cleanly, go cleanly, cause and effect follow, fate gathers and disperses, does not increase or decrease, does not return to nothing, even if you go in, the master and his old man don't want to see you, even if he sits in front of you, you can't see him!"
After a slight pause, he said, "Why are you persistent!"
"Little monk, you ...... Wait for me!" Zhuge Meimei's eyes were red, and he turned around and walked towards the outside of the mountain gate!
Li Zhi touched his nose, and he really couldn't understand what the two of them meant.
After Zhuge Meili left, the gray-clothed little monk put his hands together and said respectfully: "Li Jushi, the family teacher has been a long time coming, please inside!"
"Please!" Li Zhi stretched out his hand and politely returned the salute.
In front of an ancient meditation room, the little monk stopped, and said in a slightly sad voice: "Please go in, the family teacher stays in the world, just to wait for Li Jushi to come, and outsiders will not see you!"
Li Zhi didn't ask much, pushed open the door of the meditation room, and walked in!
Looking at the familiar scene in the meditation room, but empty, the little monk sighed, stepped forward with red eyes, and closed the door of the meditation room.
Say no, see as if you don't see, see no, see no, see no!
"It's coming!"
The little monk couldn't see it, but Li Zhi could see it.
The meditation room is peaceful, the light is not dim, and there is an old monk sitting in it, making water and making tea.
"Are you Zen Master Zhiweng?" Li Zhi looked at the red-faced old monk and was stunned, the other party did not have a little dead air, his complexion was ruddy, where did he look like a person who was about to die.
"Haha, that beautiful girl likes to call me an old monk, and I also like people to call me an old monk, you can also call me an old monk, come, come and drink tea!"
Zen Master Zhi Weng smiled, beckoned to Li Zhi, and motioned for him to come and sit.
Li Zhi is not the kind of person who will be polite to the outside, so he walked over directly and sat opposite the old monk.
"I have a lot of things to ask in my heart, don't be in a hurry to say it, come, drink a cup of tea first, I have a lot of experience in making tea, the old monk I have a lot of experience in making tea, this is also the last pot of tea I drank in the world, the old monk and Li Jushi tasted it together!" Zen Master Zhi Weng smiled, picked up the teapot, and brought a cup of tea to Li Zhi, and at the same time poured himself a cup of tea.
"Please!"
Li Zhi didn't speak, picked up the teacup, put it in front of his nose and smelled it first, to tell the truth, Li Zhi didn't know how to drink tea.
This cup of tea also has no aromatic, fragrant taste, no taste at all, just like boiled water.
Tilt your head and pour a cup of tea into your mouth.
The tip of his tongue touched the tea, and a bitterness spread, through the taste buds, directly into the brain, so that Li Zhi almost couldn't help but spit it out.
Bitter, it's really bitter enough, what kind of tea is this, it's just bitter water!
"Hehe!" Zen Master Zhi Weng smiled, drank all the tea in front of him, and then said with a smile: "Isn't it bitter?"
"Yes!" Li Zhi smiled bitterly and nodded, not only was it very bitter, it was simply too bitter.
"I feel very bitter too!" said Zen Master Zhi Weng with a smile and nodded.
"The first cup of tea, so bitter, does the old monk have any meaning?" Li Zhi asked as he looked at Zen Master Zhiweng opposite.
The other party called himself, there must be something to tell, maybe the story is in this pot of tea.
Thinking about it, Zen Master Zhiweng laughed, shook his head and said, "No!"
"No?" Li Zhi was stunned.
"Yes, no, this is a pot of bitter tea, the taste is bitter, what is the meaning, it's just that the old monk I like to drink bitter tea!" Zen Master Zhi Weng shook his head with a smile.
“……”
Zen Master Zhi Weng poured another cup of tea for Li Zhi: "Come, try this second cup again!"
When Li Zhi heard this, he raised the teacup and drank the tea again, but it was still so bitter, no different from the first cup!
"Is this cup of tea still bitter?" asked Zen Master Zhi Weng as he drank tea.
"Bitter!" Li Zhi nodded.
Zen Master Zhi Weng smiled and said, "What about the first cup?"
Li Zhi thought about it for a while, and said with a wry smile: "The taste is almost the same, it's all bitter!"
"Then try this last cup!" the old monk Zhiweng smiled and poured another full cup for Li Zhi.
Li Zhi pondered, three cups of tea, the first two cups are bitter, maybe the latter cup will be sweet, bitter and sweet, as a result, the last cup is still bitter, and the taste of the first cup, the second cup, and the third cup is not the slightest difference, it is indeed a pot of bitter tea.
"Is it still bitter?" asked the old monk Zhiweng with a smile.
Li Zhi's eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled and said, "It's not bitter, the last cup is sweet!"
"Haha, it's good if it's sweet, yours is sweet, mine is still bitter!" The old monk Zhiweng said with a smile: "People, from birth, are like this pot of tea, whether it is bitter or sweet, it is just a pot of tea." ”
"The kid doesn't understand!" Li Zhi shook his head and looked at the old monk, hoping that the other party could solve his doubts.
The old monk Zhiweng said with a smile: "You don't understand, I don't understand either, we drink the same pot of tea, I drink three cups, all three cups are bitter, and you drink three cups, two cups are bitter and one is sweet." ”
"......" Li Zhi touched his nose and said with a smile: "I lied to you!"
The old monk Zhiweng smiled and said: "That's why I told you, I don't understand it either, if I really understand, isn't it just like you?"
"People, this life is like tea, bitter!"
Zen Master Zhi Weng picked up the teapot and when he wanted to pour the tea again, he found that the teapot was empty, looked up at Li Zhi and smiled and said, "Even if it is bitter, I want to drink it again!"
"Go, Li Jushi's road is too long, it is definitely not comparable to the old monk, this pot of tea of yours has just been brewed, drink slowly, drink slowly, don't rush!"
The old monk smiled, waved his hand, and motioned for Li Zhi to go!
