Chapter 528: Rice at the Pure Heart Temple
(2 chapters in 1)
Regarding Wang Huize's question, in Su Wen's opinion, as long as a past plot is added. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When Fahai was young, he traveled and once encountered a fox demon who tempted mortals and married him to live in a village.
However, the fox demon is wild and untamable, and often steals chickens raised in the village to eat.
After Fahai traveled there and found the demonic energy, he followed the demonic energy to find the fox demon and wanted to subdue the demon. However, under the bitter pleading of the fox demon and his father-in-law, he let go of the other party for a while, hoping that the other party could reform himself.
But when he revisited the village a few years later, he found it almost deserted, and a resentment was hanging in the middle of it.
After inquiring, he learned the result but he regretted it a lot.
The fox demon did converge for a while after that, but its nature was difficult to change, and it didn't take long for it to recur. Later, when stealing chickens and gnawing on the scene, they were discovered by the villagers and hurriedly fled home to cry with their father-in-law to explain the truth. Her husband was very affectionate to her, and immediately decided to abandon this place with her and flee to other places to live again.
But before they could escape, they were blocked by the villagers with torches.
Later, her husband was injured when he was stopped, and the fox demon killed all the villagers.
Seeing her in such a catastrophe, she suddenly woke up to the fact that she was a shemale and couldn't face her heart, and finally committed suicide.
The fox demon also committed suicide after that.
And there were orphans and widows left in that village, and the resentment after the death of the fox demon was also entrenched in it, and it didn't take long for the village to decay.
After Fahai knew what happened, he blamed himself deeply, and then he was no longer merciful to the monsters, and all the monsters were killed after they were discovered.
In addition to this, there are also some changes to the ending.
Twenty years later, Xiaoqing felt that his mana had advanced greatly and went to Jinshan Temple to fight Fahai and was defeated.
Xu Xian's son grew up, and after gaining fame in the examination, Jinshan Temple begged hard.
In the past 20 years, Fahai has also refined Buddhism again, and his thoughts have changed, and after testing the son of Xu Xian, he let Bai Suzhen go out of the tower to reunite with his family.
But Bai Suzhen was not allowed to leave Hangzhou for the rest of her life, so that Fahai could take care of her at any time and prevent the recurrence of what happened back then.
In general, Fahai's treatment of Bai Suzhen is also due to reason and effect. It may still be a bit extreme, but it's not without cause, and it's relatively easy to accept.
After finishing this, Su Wen said, "There is no one in the world who does not make mistakes. And Fahai has missed it once, as for whether this time is wrong, leave it to others to evaluate. ā
Wang Huize nodded after hearing this: "Just follow what the master said!"
I like this story in my heart, it is full of Xinhua classical elements, and the story is bizarre and fascinating. It's just that the time to make a movie is a little shorter, and it seems to be better to make it into a TV series.
When he asked Su Wen this question, Su Wen also nodded in agreement.
"Fahai's candidate, master, who do you think is better to play? I hope that the monks of your temple will participate. ā
Su Wen said regretfully: "It's a pity that Fahai Dade has returned to the Buddha Kingdom, otherwise he would definitely be interested." Now all the senior brothers in this temple, I'm afraid you won't be interested in this, so you should choose the actors yourself. ā
For Su Wen, as long as he can improve the image and recognition of Buddhism in people's hearts, he doesn't care who plays him, and he doesn't want to interfere.
Wang Huize was not very interested in Su Wen's story at first, but after hearing this, he also became interested, wanting to know what the other story was.
Su Wen sorted out his words and continued to tell the general content:
"Ma An is a 9-to-5 computer engineer on the surface, but in private he is a superb hacker-computer hacker, and he has been living an ordinary life until he contacts the mysterious characters Lin Fei and Cui Zhuo, and everything becomes different.
Lin Fei and others take him to the real world, and Ma An realizes that the world he knows is a virtual world created by a computer program. It was created by the Matrix of the Mechanical World to train humans as a source of energy, and was programmed to simulate the human world in 1999 (the real world has actually stepped into the year 2199).
Through various built-in programs, the matrix connects with the nerves of the human brain to make the signals of sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, and psychology (six roots) transmitted to the human brain as if they were real, and even the real body will die because of realistic feelings when "death......"
At first, Wang Huize thought that Su Wen's second story was also a story full of Xinhua classical charm like "The Legend of the White Snake", but he didn't expect it to be such a story about breaking through the sky.
The whole world turned out to be fake?
All people are farmed by artificial intelligence, providing bioelectricity?
It's hard for a science fiction writer to come up with such a story, and it's hard to imagine that it would appear in the mouth of an abbot of a monastery.
Yes, the second story Su Wen tells is "The Matrix".
On the surface, this movie is a story of a brain hole breaking through the sky, and it doesn't have much to do with Buddhism.
But this movie is full of Buddhist philosophical systems, and there are shadows of Buddhist theories everywhere, which are full of religious wisdom.
Of course, there are some symbols of Christianity, but these things are common to all religions. If the screenwriter of Xinhua had written this story, presumably those Christian symbols would have been replaced.
Unless that screenwriter is a Catholic.
The ubiquitous and unknown matrix in the film is the real villain. It is the ruler of all, the ultimate source of all suffering.
On the surface, it is the whole content of human life, the greatest reality, the most solid reality, but in fact it is completely illusory, just like a mirror.
This is what Buddhism calls "ignorance." We indulge in the pleasures and pains brought to us by food, money, status, and interpersonal relationships, and immerse ourselves in the sea of greed, hatred, and self-masochistic playfulness, but we don't realize that in fact, all this comes from nothingness, nothingness, and nothingness.
Buddhism believes that greed, hatred, and ignorance are the main obstacles to liberation. If you want to get rid of illusions, you have to give up those illusory pleasures.
In the movie, Lin Fei gave Ma An two pills before helping him awaken, one red and one blue, eat the blue and you go back to live your life as usual, and eat the red you will see the truth yourself, which also means that you have given up everything in the illusory world.
This is in line with the Buddhist practice of cutting off all craving for material things in order to achieve true enlightenment, even though it will be very painful at first.
When the male protagonist Ma An went to meet the prophet, a little monk even nakedly told the truth expounded by Buddhism: "Don't try to bend the spoon." It's impossible. Instead, do your best to discover the truth. The spoon doesn't exist at all, and what you see is not the spoon, but yourself. ā
It was after hearing these words that Ma An had an epiphany and became a Buddha on the spot. He saw another form of the world, where everything was data. It's just like a four-dimensional creature looks at three dimensions, and our three-dimensional creature looks at a two-dimensional one, everything is clear. This is the realization of emptiness, as the Diamond Sutra says, "All appearances are false, and if you see things that are not appearances, you see them as they are." ā
and Zhang Fu knew that sexy beauties and delicious food were just illusory numbers, but he couldn't let go, regretting why he couldn't eat the red pill that entered the illusory world, and hated Lin Fei who revealed the truth to him.
In the film, the man who indulges in fine wine and aspires to wealth and status ends up as a traitor, and the food of the resistance fighters is only nutritious gruel, which is very profound......
So this movie looks like a science fiction film on the surface, but in fact, it is full of Buddhist theories.
It can be said that as long as you understand this movie, you will have your own answers to many things.
Su Wen told Wang Huize about this movie, and he also wanted people to think about whether the world we live in is "real"
Wang Huize was shocked after listening to the story, and it took a long time to pinch himself, and said with a wry smile: "Master, after listening to this story, I am wondering if I am real now." ā
He has been in charge of an entertainment company for so many years, and he can still tell the quality of a story. For Su Wen's story, just listening to it so simple can make him doubt the world, let alone make it into a movie.
He dared to say that as long as this movie is not smashed, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire Xinhua.
He also flashed a candidate in his mind, all of whom are famous directors in China. He believes that whoever sees this story will not give up.
The only thing that makes him a little suspicious is that these directors are all famous for martial arts films, Xianxia films, action movies, historical films and other themes, but science fiction movies have not made any achievements.
You must know that Xinhua is one of the most powerful countries in the world, and it is at the top of the world in all aspects.
It's just that in the movie, Xinhua is indeed a little weak.
Or rather, science fiction movies. In martial arts, Xianxia, and action movies, Xinhua has always exported a large number of foreign countries.
Because none of the well-known domestic directors has proven themselves in science fiction themes, he also loves the story told by Su Wen very much, and is worried that the filming will not meet expectations, so so there are so many directors flashed in his mind, and none of them made him feel very suitable.
However, he quickly put the thought down, and it was not too late for him to think about it when he returned.
In his opinion, this story has little to do with Buddhism, and some don't understand why Su Wen told him such a story. But it's impossible to get him to give up the story.
Originally, he planned to come over to repay his kindness, but now that he has taken advantage of it, he feels a little awkward. What he is most afraid of is owing favors to others, and it is not easy to pay it back.
was saved by Su Wen, not to mention, and the two stories he got seemed to take advantage of him.
This made him feel a little awkward.
It's awkward, but after listening to these two stories, he couldn't sit still, and wanted to arrange someone to turn these two stories into a script earlier. Looking up at the sky, it was almost noon, thinking that he hadn't met the prince yet, so he had another lunch at the Jingxin Temple at the invitation of Su Wen, and went to see the prince after the meal.
Although Li Tianlang has become a monk and has lost the identity of the son, there is no reason why he has not seen since he came.
There is not much rice in the temple, but the rice in the temple is made from rice on the fifteenth day of the new year.
Wang Huize and Qin Yu also caught up.
When they saw the rice grains in the bowl and smelled the fragrance, the two of them didn't feel like the common rice on the market, because the rice grains were much larger than ordinary rice grains, especially if they didn't move their mouths and just smelled them, they could smell a fresh fragrance.
The two of them put the rice in their mouths, only to feel that their mouths were full of fragrant and glutinous mouths, and they couldn't even hide the taste of the dishes they had cooked.
The eyes of the two lit up on the spot, they didn't eat many dishes in one meal, but they ate two bowls of rice. And after eating, the two of them also felt that the fragrance in their mouths was always there, and the aftertaste was long.
"Abbot, what kind of rice is this, I don't know if there is anything else?" After eating, Wang Huize asked Su. The tea in the morning made him greedy, but he had already heard that the Jingxin Temple was not sold out, and he was embarrassed to speak, just looking for an opportunity to get some tea.
But after this meal, he couldn't help it.
Compared with this, the rice I used to eat was almost heaven and earth, and it was almost the same as pig food.
"This is the temple itself planted into the rice, the temple also has very little left, every fifteen monks in the temple can eat once. When the new rice comes down in the fall, I can be the master and send some to the donor. Su Wen said with a smile.
"......" As soon as Wang Huize heard Su Wen's words, he knew that there was no drama for the time being. He can't tell the monks of the Pure Heart Temple not to eat it, sell it to him, right?
If it was possible somewhere else, but if the other party was the Pure Heart Temple, there would be no hope.
In other places, as long as you have money, you can sell anything, but the Pure Heart Temple holds good things, and you can't sell them to you if you want to.
If the Jingxin Temple is willing to sell Jingxin tea, I don't know how many rich people are willing to line up to buy it, but the Jingxin Temple would rather give tea to ordinary pilgrims every day than sell a penny.
As for this rice, such a good thing, he dared to say that the palace could not eat it. But I hadn't heard of it before, and if it wasn't for a meal today, I'm afraid this rice wouldn't be known to outsiders.
In the past, not to mention what kind of rare delicacy it was, he could get as much as he wanted.
Even if it is a tribute from the royal family, in addition to supplying the royal family, there is also a part of the takeaway, and he can get some of it.
There are only things in the Pure Heart Temple, he can only look at them, but he can't get them, and it's useless to have money.
You must know that this is rice, if you go back and tell your relatives and friends that you will eat the rice well, but the people who pay for it will not sell it to you, you will have to be laughed to death.
Thinking of this, Wang Huize was also a little resentful, and he knew that it was better not to rub this meal.
After eating this regular rice, how can I eat ordinary rice when I go back?
Regarding Wang Huize's resentment, Su Wen could naturally see it, but he also laughed at it.
Regular consumption of rice has considerable benefits for the body, which can prolong life, pass through the nine tricks, and open wisdom. He wasn't going to sell this kind of thing anytime soon.
Wang Huize thought hard for a long time, and suddenly came up with an idea: "Can the abbot give me some seeds, I can buy them at a high price, and I will definitely not sell them." ā
After all, rice is no better than others, and it is inevitable that it will flow out, whether it is stolen by someone going up the mountain or some other reason, it is difficult to control.
When I go back, I will find someone to plant it, and at least I will be able to eat it at that time.
Hearing this, Su Wen smiled and said, "That's fine, but this rice is only produced in the land around the temple, and it is difficult to grow in other places." But I can give some to the donor and take them back to try. ā
Although Wang Huize felt that Su Wen would not lie to himself, he still decided to go back and give it a try.
I was also ruthless in my heart, didn't I just plant rice, and I didn't believe that I couldn't grow it when I went back to find someone from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. I really can't grow it in the East China Sea, a piece of bread in the East China Sea, with an environment similar to Baiyun Mountain, right?
Even if there is a slight difference in taste, it is better than not being able to eat it.
Seeing that he was insistent, Su Wen asked someone to take a small bag of seeds and give it to him, but about a catty, but he was carefully held as a treasure.
