Chapter 8: Liberation and Merit

"Master Su, what do you say you are cultivating Buddhism?" He Baichuan suddenly asked Su Wen. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

This sentence stopped Su Wen.

Yes, what is the practice of Buddhism?

While looking through the memories in my head, I thought hard. Huang Yijia also asked this question yesterday, he laughed and didn't answer, and today He Baichuan asked again.

The old monk was also asked this question by his predecessor, and the old monk's answer at that time was, "What is cultivated is sincerity, purity, equality, enlightenment, and compassion." ā€

But he always felt that it was wrong, it was the Buddha of the old monk, not his Buddha.

"All people have Buddha nature in their hearts, but they are obscured by desire. To cultivate the Buddha is to see the little bit of the heart that is obscured by desire. Su asked this thought, and half an hour passed, but he couldn't get the gist, so he had to answer He Baichuan with what he thought before.

"Oh? I've only heard of reciting Amitabha, and it's the first time I've heard that kind of saying. He Baichuan said: "Then how to cultivate Buddha? ā€

"Eating is cultivating Buddha, drinking water is cultivating Buddha, and sleeping is also cultivating Buddha."

He Baichuan laughed after hearing this: "Isn't that why people like me can also cultivate Buddhism?" ā€

"Why not?" Su Wen asked with a smile.

He Baichuan was just about to answer when the phone rang.

After answering the phone, He Baichuan looked happy, and said to Su Wen: "That contact is good, but the number is too large, and it will not be enough until the afternoon, and some of them are still pulled from other cities." ā€

Su Wen nodded, this kind of finger-length river fish is not like those common fish, the production is not large, and the market is small, and it is not easy to make up enough.

In the afternoon, after receiving the news that all the fish were ready, the two went directly to the river where they had saved people last time.

Dozens of people gathered around, all but a few vendors watched the excitement. There are large and small pots and buckets on the ground, which are placed out for more than ten meters. It took a lot of effort just to transport all the fish here.

Su Wen took the money from He Baichuan, settled the fish payment, and released a bucket of fish, and found that the merit had indeed become 11.

There was some excitement in my heart, and it was indeed possible.

Refusing the help of others, it took more than an hour to release all the fish in hundreds of pots and buckets, and Su Wen's head was full of sweat.

Seeing that all the fish were released, he gasped a few times and wiped the beads of sweat on his head, Su Wen's heart was full of joy.

Suwen (monks)

Skills: Elementary Buddha, Elementary Super, Elementary Arhat Boxing, Elementary Arhat Stick, Intermediate Cooking.

"Okay, just prepare another bag of fine sand." Su Wen gestured and said to He Baichuan.

Then he excused himself to be tired, and he wanted to take a break, so he found a place to sit by the river.

Call out the system

Task 1, gain 500 merit points within 3 months. Picked up. (Complete).

Reward: A raffle chest will be awarded after the task is completed.

Penalty for failure: Ten years of life deducted.

After the selection is completed, a treasure chest suddenly appears on the interface.

"Open." Su Wen said silently in his heart, his finger lightly in the air.

"Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the Intermediate Vajra Finger Skill Book."

"Learn."

Suddenly, a large number of pictures and mantras poured into Su Wen's mind, and he immediately understood all the characteristics of this set of exercises, the practice methods, and the way of exerting strength, just like his own memory.

Su Wen stood up from the ground, came to a tree, separated his five fingers, and poked at the trunk, and suddenly his five fingers were as strong as steel, and they were several centimeters deep into the trunk. Grasping hard, lifting outward, he grabbed a large piece of skin from the entire trunk.

He Baichuan, who noticed Su Wen's movements, watched this scene not far away, and his eyes were about to pop out. Is this something that can be done by a man?

When I walked in, I saw a fist-sized hole in the middle of the entire tree trunk.

"How did you do that?" He Baichuan swallowed his saliva and asked in a dry throat, if this is to catch a handful on people, thinking about the consequences suddenly hit a spirit.

"You have to practice children's skills." Su asked a word to dispel his thoughts.

Ignoring He Baichuan, who was looking at the big tree, he sat down and called out the system again

There is no change on the panel, except that there is an intermediate Vajra Finger skill behind the skill.

Instead, there is one more task in the taskbar.

The first step to becoming a monk (received)

Ten believers are grown in one year.

Reward: 1 treasure chest.

Penalty: Ten years of life deducted.

Su Wen wants to swear again, this is still one after another, there is no chance of refusal at all, is there a next task after this is completed? If he could, he would like to return to the vulgar immediately, find a girl, and pass the ordinary life for a lifetime.

After exchanging the intermediate Buddhist teachings in the Hall of Merit, countless scriptures suddenly appeared in my mind, and at the same time, countless predecessors' perceptions of the Dharma poured into my mind. plunged his whole body into an atmosphere of emptiness. It's like being in the mother's body, a piece of comfort, thinking about nothing, quiet and peaceful. A smile appeared on his face unconsciously, and it took a long time to break free from that state.

Su Wen, who came back to his senses, was shocked, the feeling just now was so comfortable that people were reluctant to leave. I thought that there would be a few more times when I really became a monk, right?

In my heart, I exchanged for the intermediate level of transcendence again, but this time there was no change. It's just that I have a deeper understanding of the paraphrases of a few scriptures.

After exchanging the blessing skill of the Golden Light Sutra, he exited the Hall of Merit and found that his personal panel had changed.

Su Wen (Junior Mage)

man

Merit: 1625

Age: 21

Skills: Intermediate Buddhism, Intermediate Transcendence, Elementary Arhat Fist, Elementary Arhat Stick, Intermediate Cooking, Intermediate Vajra Finger, Dharma Blessing.

And under the blessings of the Dharma is displayed the "Golden Light Sutra".

Looking at the remaining more than 1,600 merits, Su Wen had a plan in his heart. At that time, there were many seeds of exotic flowers and plants in the Hall of Merit, which could make him greedy at that time, and the effect was also extremely powerful. Now that you have merit, you must replace it with some when you go back. Think of the herbs that can cure cancer, how many people will pay a huge price in exchange. The spirit grass that allows people to live longer for a year will give people a lot of shock when they take it out. Although each person can only use it once, how many rich people are willing to pay half of their wealth for it?

"Let's go." Su Wen came to He Baichuan's side and said.

At this time, it was dusk, and the sunset was far away in the sky.

Looking at Su Wen, He Baichuan suddenly felt a little dazed, feeling that Su Wen seemed to be different, his temperament was even more dusty, and the whole person had a little holy feeling.

If you look closely, it's the same as before, but it still feels like something has changed.

"Okay." He Baichuan opened the car door for Su Wen and asked Su Wen to get into the car, this is an attitude that he did not have when he came just now, and now He Baichuan unconsciously made such a gesture. Neither of them noticed that a quiet change was taking place.

"Amitabha." Su Wen folded his hands and was rude.

When I came to He Baichuan's house again, I was still gloomy. The Yingyang Daoist who made trouble last time is still in the hospital, and Su Wen's mood has also changed.

Last time, I just wanted to try it, and I was curious. And now, on the one hand, the task has been completed, and a lot of thoughts have been put down, and on the other hand, the three intermediate skills and blessed Dharma have also increased my confidence. Even if you can't get rid of that ghost, it shouldn't be a problem to protect yourself.
