Chapter 0388: Life has no love and escapes into the empty door
Time does not stand still, life goes on, Li Yanyang's death once caused a sensation, but it is only a small event in the long history.
This was true for the city of Suzhou and Hangzhou, and the same was true for the country, and in the midst of forceful measures, the noise of Li Yanyang's death was calmed down in a very short time, and then seemed to begin to fade into oblivion.
Of course, for ordinary people, there is really no one who will live in that shadow, they may have been sad, but that is also something that has been rendered, and there is awe, and it is only because of that unusual heavy rain that flooded the city.
And when all this has become thin under the baptism of the years, few people talk about that matter anymore, not to mention that there are too many topics for people to entertain in the current society, and a year is really too long for this era of rapid development.
But for those who know Li Yanyang, have a close relationship with him, and even have an unusual relationship, this year, all this has never been able to let go.
The pattern of the Northeast has been quietly changing in a subtle way, and Li Tianyou, the maker of a smash hit business empire, seems to have begun to become history, like Yang Ming and the old abbot, in the past tense.
An era will eventually come to an end one day, although this time seems to come too early, and too many people are caught off guard, so that when everyone realizes it later, they find that Li Tianyou's glory is only a short ten years.
He rose so fast, and fell so quickly, this ups and downs of ten years, like a life.
Li Tianyou disappeared from the public eye, and many people are speculating about the next low point in the life of this hero.
It's not about malice, it's not a joke, in fact, in these years, in the Northeast, most of them have respected Li Tianyou like a god, and his legendary stories have been passed on by word of mouth, and even the idols of many young people are also the benchmark of struggle.
But people still think that Li Tianyou will be miserable, because it is the pain of falling from heaven.
People think that he will be depressed, and may even suffer from depression, and there are even many versions of Li Tianyou's suicide in the past year, such as taking medicine, jumping off a building, and hanging.
People don't know that Li Tianyou is not depressed, but he is still very happy at this time, because he has added a strong stroke to his legendary life, which is destined to be unattainable. Just past the year of establishment, he has become a grandfather.
Guarding a little princess, and now with a big grandson, Li Tianyou gave birth to a kind of rush to tease his grandson, in fact, his life does seem to be a little old, except for two children, he only reads and writes most of the time, not helpless, on the contrary, he enjoys this kind of life with time to rest and time to read.
It's not that he's lost his fighting spirit, it's not that he's giving up on himself, even though he's now gradually stepping out of yin and yang and becoming more positive, but he's lost any interest in the business world.
In the past ten years, he has had ups and downs, and he has seen and experienced too many things that people can't experience in their lifetime, and it has become a bit boring.
If you say it, some people will definitely think that Li Tianyou can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, but in fact, it is just because he has eaten grapes for too many years, and he really feels sour.
Of course, this is not unrelated to the blows that have been repeated over the years.
Just like every time he came to those two graves, he would look like an old man with his hands behind his back, silent and speechless, with deep eyes.
Looking at Liu Damei, he seems to see his youth, but it has been ten years, but it seems to have been half a century.
Looking at Wang Xiaoyuan, he seemed to see his own life, and he was only in his thirties, but he felt that he was about to die.
But fortunately, fortunately, he can hold a child with a handle and tell Liu Damei that there is a successor to Yanyang, which is the only voice he dares to make to Liu Damei.
Bai Jie's life has regained its vitality, losing Li Yanyang, and welcoming the children of the two, she has put everything on this lovely new life and has everything she has.
Yang Mu didn't have time to indulge in sadness, quit his job, and devoted all his energy to the creation of "From Man to God" day and night, which lasted for a year, the skeleton has been completed, and the next thing is to enrich the flesh and blood.
In fact, a year is not a short time, but Yang Mu's requirements for this work are almost harsh to the extreme, every word, every word, has been repeatedly considered, and there is no room for a trace of flaws.
After Zhong Miaoke took a leave of absence, he studied abroad under the arrangement of his family.
Xie Jing's credit in Yang Dengqu's big case is second only to Li Yanyang, but Li Yanyang's credit can no longer be written, so in the official evaluation, Xie Jing's credit is great, coupled with his excellent performance, especially the favor of Deputy Mayor Qin, who was crowned with the word executive immediately after laughing in the bush, and has now become the director of the sub-district police station, and the spring breeze is proud.
The speed of Qin Miao's career promotion is still improving, Cong Zhongxiao's fall is a key factor, which directly benefits her, but more thanks to the well-known marriage, everyone also knows that this executive deputy mayor only added a code to her, this is already the end of her official in Suzhou and Hangzhou, with this status, she can naturally go to Shanghai, the first most expensive capital in China, to be the deputy mayor with the help of the He family, and then become the young grandmother of the He family.
Things are indeed developing in this vein, from being listed as a standing officer to being transferred to Shanghai half a year later, everything seems so natural.
However, to everyone's surprise, the wedding date at the end of the year was postponed.
The voice from the He family was that He Zu's career was at its peak, and the year was quite busy, so it was postponed.
But the truth is the same as others guessed, this is just the He family's face-saving rhetoric.
The real reason is that Qin Miao postponed her marriage, and in the face of He Zu's proposal, she said that she was not mentally prepared, and she had just arrived in Shanghai and wanted to avoid some rumors.
He Zu smiled harmlessly and chose to accept it to a great extent.
He Zu is not a fool, with the sensation caused by Li Yanyang's death, coupled with the in-depth "understanding" of Qin Miao after the blind date before, he knows that this is a hurdle in Qin Miao's heart.
But he is not in a hurry, although he is a little uncomfortable in his heart, but a man must always have a little patience, especially for the woman he is obsessed with.
Since Li Yanyang hung up, he didn't worry about regeneration, of course, he wasn't worried when Li Yanyang was still alive, although he didn't treat Li Tianyou like anything back then, but that was just a concern, if Li Yanyang really dared to rob a woman with himself, this was an insult to his ancestors, and it was also an insult to the He family, and he didn't mind letting them really understand this suffering.
However, after learning about Li Yanyang's ability to reach the sky, he was really glad that there was no conflict before, otherwise Haikou in front of his brother might have been slapped in the face, because this guy is different from his godfather, and it seems that there are some methods that ordinary people can't handle, which also makes him understand why he was able to overturn the old man with a palm in the air that time.
But no matter how the impression changes, after Li Yanyang's death, He Zu has no worries, so he has a lot of anger in his heart, and he stepped on Li Tianyou a few times when he fell into the water.
Everyone knows the former north-south contest, so they are not surprised that He Zu holds a lot of shares in Yiren Media, but it is a pity that Wei Yixiao terminated the contract before Yiren Media changed hands, otherwise in the eyes of outsiders, Li Tianyou would really lose his wife and lose his army. After all, the original conflict was because He Zu teased and said that he wanted Wei Yixiao to drink with him, and then there was Suzaku's slap and everything that followed.
The marriage was postponed, and Qin Miao gave an explanation to herself, which made her feel a little less guilty about Li Yanyang, although the two had already broken off the tacit relationship before Li Yanyang's death.
Qin Miao continued to devote all her energy to work, but at the same time she was contradictory, she hoped that time would pass faster, so that Li Yanyang's name would gradually dilute, and she hoped that time would pass slowly, hoping that the wedding could be far away.
Huangfuyue's life has returned to its previous monotony and tediousness, just like before Li Yanyang appeared, there is not much joy every day, and most of the time there is silence at two points and one line. Occasionally, I think of Li Yanyang, but I won't be as heartbroken as Qin Miao, and I can't divert my attention like Yang Mu, so I can only be alone in a daze at the sky from time to time.
Chu Zhongtian's whole person seemed to have aged several years overnight, became depressed, began to drink heavily, often muttered two names in a daze, and often locked himself in that study in a daze, as if the hearty laughter that Li Yanyang once brought him only overdrew his happiness in advance, and did not affect the overall conservation.
Li Yanyang's death changed the trajectory of many people's lives, but the biggest impact was the first woman she met in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and the woman who was hurt the most and imprinted the most by him, Lu Xi.
This year, Lu Xi didn't know how she came over, but fortunately, with Qiqi's company and constant persuasion, she didn't talk about life and death lightly, but she didn't give up all day long, and she was a walking corpse for a year.
I don't think about tea, I don't want to eat, I don't know the taste of food, I can't sleep at night, only endless tears accompany me day and night.
Finally, she couldn't help it anymore and made a decision, since she didn't have the courage to face death, she would escape from the chaos of the red dust, and she told Kiki that she was going to become a monk.
Kiki was shocked when she heard this, but she pondered for a long time and did not persuade her.
She knew how Lu Xi had come over this year, and if she could forget the pain, it would be a good choice.
After another year and a half, I will persuade her to return to vulgarity, maybe she will have come out of that shadow by then, so it is not bad.
So on this day, Qiqi accompanied Lu Xi to Lingyin Temple.
Burning incense and worshiping the Buddha just happened to have a good fate, and the abbot of Zhibai succeeded.
Hearing that the young and beautiful Lu Xi was going to become a monk, the presiding abbot was slightly surprised and recited Amitabha Buddha and asked, "Why did the donor escape into the empty door?"
Lu Xi paused when she heard this, she didn't know that she still had to take the exam if she wanted to enter the empty door, although it seemed that the question was simple, but she knew that the reason was improper or she was rejected, but in the face of the charity hosted by Zhibai, she didn't dare to lie, so she had to say: "I don't have any nostalgia outside, I just want to forget the pain in a pure place." ”
The host of Zhibai chanted Amitabha Buddha in a low voice, and persuaded: "The donor must know that all living beings are suffering, birth and death are all cause and effect, if it is only because of pain and unforgettable, you don't have to become a monk, travel thousands of miles, read thousands of books, and realize the true meaning of life, you can not be disturbed by it." ”
Lu Xi shook his head: "I still want to devote myself to worshipping the Buddha, and I hope that the Bodhisattva who saves the suffering can help me." ”
Zhibai smiled helplessly: "Since the donor insists on this, the poor monk will not persuade much, you go back and think, if it is still like this in a month, then come back on the eighteenth of the next month, remember, it is the eighteenth of the lunar calendar." ”
The two didn't know why the host was like this, they just thought that there must be a deep meaning, so Qiqi took Lu Xi to say goodbye.
For people in Buddhism, it is natural to hope that the more disciples there are, the better, but the host of Zhibai knows that most of the people who want to become monks today are not dedicated to Buddha, but just like Lu Xi, they hope to borrow Buddhism and escape from reality.
He is different from other monks, he really has good roots, has compassion, and has the heart to support the Dharma, promote the Dharma and benefit the living, he encourages you to become a monk, if not, you really don't need to become a monk, just like people in the world to offer to the Buddha, worship the Buddha, and recite the Buddha.
On the way back for the two, Qiqi said: "Xixi, you can't be like this, you should show the state of the original job search, this initial test is considered a failure, you have to prepare well for the retest." ”
Lu Xi smiled helplessly, looked at Qiqi and said thank you seriously.
She knew that Kiki was amusing herself, and in fact she wanted to be happy, but she couldn't.
"Alas, laughing is worse than crying! Kiki said.
Lu Xi said: "Take care of your business, find an ordinary man to marry, and then live a happy life, it's good." ”
Qiqi nodded, she knew that this was Lu Xi's painful experience, men, you really don't have to look for too good, ordinary is really a blessing.
Rich and powerful men are not easy to control, and you can't expect them to accompany you every day, no matter how extraordinary a man is, what Prince Charming, what superhero, just like Li Yanyang, is not in the same dimension after all, you can't expect to grow old with them.
Everyone is saving the world, where can I be with you with firewood, rice, oil and salt.
In China, the 15th day of the seventh lunar month is an important day.
This day is known as Halloween, also known as the Midyear Festival, the Olan Festival.
The Zhongyuan Festival is a Taoist saying, and in ancient China, the fifteenth day of January, July and October was called Shangyuan, Zhongyuan and Xiayuan: Shangyuan is the day of blessing of heavenly officials, Zhongyuan is the day of forgiveness of sins of local officials, and Xiayuan is the day of relief of water officials. Therefore, it will be Pudu Lonely Soul and Wild Ghost in the middle of the Yuan Dynasty, which is commonly known as Halloween.
And in Buddhism, July 15 also has a vital position, Indian Buddhist ceremonies in order to recommend ancestors to hold the "Bon Festival", Buddhist scriptures in the "Bon Sutra" to cultivate filial piety to encourage the Buddha's disciples, in line with China's cautious end of the pursuit of the common belief, so the popularization of Yijia, so this day, in China, also called the Yu Lan Festival.
Of course, compared to Halloween, the festival is not well known to everyone, after all, ancestor worship is a national activity, and the festival is limited to Buddhism.
In Suzhou and Hangzhou, every year during the Yu Lan Festival, the temple presiding officer of a province will bring some of his disciples to gather at Lingyin Temple to hold a Buddhist celebration here to promote Buddhism and celebrate the Yu Lan Festival together.
Although the meditation nunnery is not known to the public, it is also a branch of Buddhism, so it is naturally listed.
Lingfeng Shitai has a wide range of qualifications, and the host Shitai wants her to accompany her every year, but she shakes her head and refuses, she has not gone down the mountain for more than 20 years, and this time she still stays in the temple, so the presiding master explained some things to her, and then took a few disciples to Lingyin Temple to participate in the seven-day Yu Lan Festival activities.
Usually there is nothing to do, and Master Lingfeng rarely leaves the temple, and knows very little about the outside world.
But this time she heard a legendary story of Taoism, not that all the monks like gossip, but that Buddhism and Taoism have been competing since ancient times, and they all hope that their respective ideas can be respected and have been competing with each other.
To this day, Taoism has declined, and Buddhism is highly respected, but after the Qinglong master, in this Suzhou and Hangzhou, the status of Taoism suddenly pulled up, so that the monks have a sense of crisis, so this time the Yu Lan Festival, Zhibai presided over an important topic, that is, how to make Buddhism more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The times are developing, the monks are progressing, and they have learned to work together and brainstorm, and in the end they also express their own opinions, but this is not an official organization after all, and Buddhism does not pay attention to Yiyantang, so no specific resolutions have been formed.
It's just that everyone expresses their opinions, and as for who thinks which way is better, it's all up to each to digest it.
At the end of the Yu Lan Festival, the host of Zhibai left the host of the meditation nunnery behind, but did not say anything specific.
Zhibai presiding over things must have a deep meaning, and the host is too late to ask, waiting for the arrangement.
On the eighteenth day of the lunar calendar, Lu Xi really came again, and for her firmness, Zhibai was helpless, so he introduced her to the host of Jingxin Nunnery.
Lu Xi and Qiqi heard that this was the host of the Jingxin Nunnery, so they knew that they were sick and rushed to the hospital, and they didn't look for the nunnery, but actually looked for the Lingyin Temple, no wonder they didn't accept it.
The host looked at Lu Xi and asked a familiar question: "Why does the donor have his heart set on Buddhism?"
When Qiqi heard this, she thought that this monk was really a tendon, Lu Xi seemed to have been prepared, and this time she was much more familiar with the answer, and said: "The disciple has no worries in the red dust, and he just wants to escape into the empty door and concentrate on worshipping the Buddha." ”
Although Lu Xi said it tactfully, but the host teacher naturally saw the bitterness between her eyebrows, she was kind-hearted, naturally merciful, she and Zhibai are also different, in her opinion, my Buddha is compassionate, universal sentient beings, since she can't get rid of it in the world, she should be baptized by Buddhism, and immediately agreed.
Lu Xi thanked him in surprise, only to feel that he could finally get rid of this world, and he couldn't help crying with joy.
The host said: "You go back and prepare, I will wait for you here for a day, stay until tomorrow, and then leave together." ”
Lu Xi shook his head when he heard this: "The disciple is not prepared, you can leave now." ”
Hearing this, the host of Zhibai recited Amitabha, with a hint of sympathy in his voice.
Qiqi knew that Lu Xi was so urgent, just because he had nothing to love.
The host Shi Tai also nodded bitterly, and took Lu Xi back to the meditation nunnery.
