Chapter 377: A Guiding Light
What is hell on earth, how could He Mullan not understand.
She has already seen three lives and three lives.
The terrible thing is not that this world, but that the people of this world have become completely numb.
Hermulan had always thought that "martyr" was a very sad word, because the martyr would not know what would happen if he was alone and cohesive. Maybe the whole world will wake up because of his "martyrdom", but it is also possible that his "martyrdom" will not even appear in a bubble, and the whole world should be how it should be.
However, Hermulan only now really understood that the martyrdom of the "martyr" should be a very happy thing. When you are not in harmony with the whole world, only "martyrdom" can truly bring liberation, from "One" to "One", you are pure until death, the whole world does not pollute you, and you are not shaken by the world.
As for what will happen to the world after the death of the martyrs? That doesn't matter anymore. Because he has accomplished what he is able to do as a "person".
This is the ultimate and tragic "fulfillment".
Compared to Mulan, He Mulan is so lucky and so sad. Mulan is the hero of this world, and her ideology and values are completely in line with this world, so she will charge into battle, but she will not think about the questions of "what am I fighting for" and "is this world right".
So she can indifferently disarm and return to the field after doing what she should do, because for Mulan, her task is to "serve in the army for her father", she promised his father to go back after the war, and she has done what his father would do in the army, or even better, and the rest of the governance and reform have nothing to do with her.
Mulan's fulfillment lies in the fact that she seeks kindness, she saves her family and country, and then she has the ending she wants.
Maybe the countless "masters" in this world are the same people as Mulan, so Tuoba Tao finally died of doubt and irritability. How can a person from one world gain insight beyond this world? Is the one who is the most painful?
If the most far-sighted one is an emperor, and all the people around this emperor are working together to maintain this "backwardness", then what kind of end will this emperor end up in......
Tuoba Tao's fate is the best example.
He Mulan's luck is that she has obtained all of Mulan's martial arts and combat experience, so she has reduced a lot of setbacks and difficulties, and thus can greatly shorten the time it takes for Mulan to succeed, but the tragedy is that she can't get the kind of satisfaction that Mulan gets, as a time-traveler, as long as she can still see this kind of hell on earth for a day, she can't be numb, and her pain will be over.
He Mullan doesn't know how other time-traveling predecessors managed to completely immerse themselves in it and get by, maybe there are many people who try to change the world and end up becoming "martyrs", maybe some of them become "husband-oriented" and limit their values to one acre and three points of land in the backyard, but none of this applies to Hermulan.
She only has the vision of crossing this world, but she does not have the ability to cross this world; She has the www.biquge.info of many women in this world, but she can't find where the end is.
Her aura was too big, too wide, and all the people around her couldn't open their eyes, so they could only follow the light source, but they neglected that there were countless dark holes next to the light, each leading in a different direction.
At this point, Edan Zhiqi, who retreated bravely from the rapids, is the smartest person, he knows what he wants, what he came out for, and where he should return in the end.
Di Yefei, Na Luohun, Chen Jie, and Mangu were all shrouded in her light, and finally lost the possibility of letting others see their light.
Even Tuoba Tao, because it was too smooth, he could not gain more experience, more ability, and more help in the long-term tilting and adjustment of contradictions, but was in a hurry to achieve it overnight, almost shaking the foundation of the entire Wei State.
Cui Hao is not wrong, it is she who is wrong.
Who in this world has no selfish motives? Even Hermulan had selfish intentions.
Isn't it her selfishness to protect all her fire companions under her wings like an old hen guarding her cubs? Does she dare to say that all Fire Companions are promoted because of their own abilities?
If it weren't for her, Narahun would have been rolling in Montenegro by now, and finally won Kumoti's favor because of his excellent ability, although that was many, many years later.
If it weren't for her recommendation, a number of people would have learned the experience of the Han people in governing the country and marching in the military tent now, and began to create their own "Some Art of War", and then because of the meritorious service in governing the local area and nepotism, they would have become the parent official and local military general of Fuze.
Di Yefei would lead the Gaoche people to "fight" to gain his own place, win in battles large and small, and eventually become the "Zhenxi General" in the west.
Chen Jie, Mangu, Yuan Fang, Zheng Zong, these people took a different path because of her, but also because of her relationship, they lost their possibilities forever.
Isn't that a more terrible form of selfishness?
It turns out that she is the biggest obstacle......
It turns out that she is alive, and it is a disaster for everyone......
"Tan Yun, it's too dangerous for you to do this."
The middle-aged man dressed in white and dressed as a businessman looked at the young monk in front of him, "People come and go here, and it is easy to be seen. Your backlash has not yet healed, and Mulan is a strong man with a strong mind......"
"The stronger the light, the deeper the shadow, there is no perfect person in this world!" Tan Yun gritted her teeth and struggled to support the illusion, "Flower.[,!] The more Mulan is fearless and invincible, the greater the fear in her mind. If we want to defeat him completely, we need to know what he fears the most."
Under the city gate, people in the doorway came and went, and some passers-by would take a curious look at this monk, and when he was now squatting next to a sweaty young man, they all showed expressions of surprise and admiration.
"Need help?"
The city gate official finally couldn't help but walk over.
"This is the apprentice of the great monk just now, right? This man has been asleep for a long time, is he not asleep, he has fainted? Do you want to find Lang Zhong?"
The merchant slightly blocked the two people behind him with his body, and responded with an apologetic smile: "This monk is good at medicine, he just has an old problem, and he will be fine after a while."
"Old problem?"
The gate officer looked at Mullan, who looked healthy on the ground, in confusion.
"It's not a cool place under the city gates, you'd better take him away......"
The merchant was sweating behind his back, and he didn't know how to respond to him.
A strong person like Mulan, although they can use drugs and means to make him sleep, but there is an instinctive reaction of a martial artist, as long as she touches him, she will definitely wake up.
That's why he protects himself from being approached here, while Tan Yun keeps using spells to make him fall into the nightmare he fears the most.
"We'll stay for a while......" The merchant finally remembered what would work best, and shoved a small piece of silver ingot into the gate officer's hand. Now if you move him, you are afraid of bad things, so you will let us stay here for a while."
The city gate official received the money, his face suddenly turned good, he smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and left in three or two steps.
"Whew! At this time, I am extremely grateful to the officials of Great Wei for not having a good time." The merchant looked at Tan Yun in a muttering voice.
"It's too dangerous, let's go. The monk will come back at any time......"
"It's just a wild monk." Tan Yun closed her eyes, "Don't bother me, I've seen it...... What the hell is he afraid of......"
"Afraid that you will affect the future of others? What is this! Tan Yun thought that she would see things such as "defeated", "ruined" and the like, but she didn't expect it to be this.
After a while, Tan Yun's cold sweat became more and more, and her body began to tremble.
"He wanted to change the world on his own...... He wants the people to live and work in peace and contentment...... He wants everyone to be happy...... He wants the world to be in harmony......"
"Is he the reincarnation of the Buddha?"
The merchant's eyes widened and he blurted out.
"This should be the Buddha's wish!"
The two of them spoke in Sanskrit, so although there were many passers-by under the doorway, no one could understand what they were saying.
Tan Yun's people followed Hermulan until He Mulan and Cixin left the barracks, and then immediately set it up, and when they saw that Hermulan and Cixin were separated, they began to arrange.
When they saw that Mullin had gone to the market and was walking under the doorway, they arranged for his accomplices, dressed as ordinary Guò road merchants, to rest under the doorway with incense and some medicines, and approached Mullan's side little by little, and pulled the smoke out of the smoke to put her to sleep.
He Mulan's sleep is just the beginning, Tan Yun, who has been prepared for a long time, hopes to control He Mulan, but after the other party's will is extremely firm, she can only use the means of "dreaming" to make her collapse.
It's not that they didn't think about simply kidnapping or killing Hemulan, but it was too risky to do so. Not to mention the people coming and going at the city gate, they have all learned Hermulan's skills, and they don't think that they can kill Hermulan with such a little person, but they may be caught by her.
If you can't really control it, you can only try to use poison.
Tan Yun trembled for a while, and finally withdrew her "supernatural powers" and didn't dare to continue.
"Why don't you continue......"
The man in white was dumbfounded.
"I can't continue, I'm the same as his." Tan Yun said with a dead face: "He hopes that the Hu people and the Han people are the same, the commoners have promotion channels, the nobles have their own honor, he hopes that the war will not hurt the innocent, and the king loves the people like a son......"
"Our wishes are the same, so once I destroy his faith, I will destroy myself as I am in his dreams. So I can't make the last step."
Tan Yun glanced at He Mulan with a complicated expression.
He ...... Unlike those powerful people who are hungry for profit, maybe he can understand what we are doing and become a right-hand man to help us? Didn't he say that he and the wild monk also got along well? When he arrives at Beiliang ......"
"It's not something we can decide!"
The merchant shook his head.
"Do it, what the master gave you......"
Tan Yun struggled for a long time before taking out a long needle and quietly poking it into Womulan's temple.
The tip of the needle faintly revealed a green cold light, which made the whole body uncomfortable.
Maybe it was because he had just come out of Hermulan's dream, so in a sense, he had resonated with Hermulan, so Tan Yun's hand could barely hold the needle.
'I'm going to kill myself......
He thought.
The tip of the needle is no more than an inch from the temple.
'I'm doing this to myself......
"Puff ......"
Suddenly, the reins had been wrapped around Hemulan's hand, and the red horse, who had just fallen into a coma, suddenly swung his neck vigorously and flew up. [,! The hoof kicked away Tan Yun, who had just come over.
"Ahh
Tan Yun was knocked to the ground, the poisonous needle fell to her hand, and her face showed a bitter expression.
But if you look closely, there is a hint of relief in the expression of the pain.
The smoke does not distinguish between people and horses, so Da Hong also won the trick. Since the horse was sleeping standing up, outsiders couldn't see anything wrong with the horse, but just felt very docile.
And now this "docile" horse has broken down, not only kicked Tan Yun away, but also pulled Hermulan's hand because of the reins and made her wake up successfully!
When the merchant saw that the red horse suddenly went crazy, even He Mullan woke up, and he was immediately shocked. But their group of people are accustomed to all kinds of disguises, and the panic caused by this kind of thing is only a moment, so he stepped forward to help Tan Yun without a trace, and chattered with an indignant expression:
"What kind of broken horse is this, how to raise it! Why do you suddenly jump up and hurt someone! "
He Mulan had just woken up, and he hadn't woken up from half sleep, people and horses were different after all, and when he saw Da Hong kicking people, some people condemned him and reflexively apologized: "I'm really sorry, my horse is a war horse, and I don't get close to people, so I ......"
"Forget it! We also see that you are dead in your sleep, and we are afraid that there is something wrong with you, so it's okay."
The merchant lifted Tan Yun.
"Master, are you alright? Let's get away from this madman......"
He Mulan was still immersed in his nightmares and struggles just now, and at this time, it looked like he was still in a dream.
She didn't even know if she had met the Master of Compassion or if she had ever hugged the child.
She squinted and looked at the sky, although there was still rain in the sky, but it was indeed daytime, which was completely different from the sky when she knocked on the house blankly at night, but when she looked at the people around her, she felt that it was all familiar.
Was it me dreaming just now, or am I dreaming now?
He Mulan blinked in confusion.
Da Hong on the side couldn't stop "puffing" at the merchant who was walking away with the monk, and then put his head next to Hemulan's head and kept licking her face with his tongue.
The slippery and moist touch of the horse's tongue made He Mulan sober up all of a sudden, and reached out to push the big red head: "Don't make trouble, I came out without sugar. How can you hurt someone? I remember you've always had a good temper......"
She shook her head, and suddenly noticed that something was wrong.
But if you look up again, where else is there anyone?
"Are you awake? Wake up and go! You've slept here for a long time! "
When the gatekeeper saw that He Mulan was awake, he went over and shouted.
"Your companion said you were sick, and I think he just wanted you to sleep a little longer. Don't rush too hard, young man, and besides, you still have such a good horse with you, if they hadn't been watching from your side, your horse would have been taken away......"
"My companion?" He Mulan's suspicion became heavier and heavier, "Who told you that they are my companions?"
She didn't even see what they looked like.
"The merchant said that you are sick and need to be treated by the monk, so you will not be able to leave for a while...... the city gate official also looked nervous.
"Isn't it? Then they will help you watch the horses! "
He Mulan looked down at the traces of the reins in his hand, the red reins were always longer than those of other horses, because it was the only horse that could control zhì without the reins, so the reins were more useful for pulling it in the direction like a rope for a dog.
Hermulan's expression became heavy, and he began to search the place where the two men had just been haunting, and finally found a long needle.
He Mulan was too familiar with this needle, and when she went to see Yuan Fang, the Egret officials stuffed such a thing in her head, and the tip of this needle was usually smeared with poison.
With a cold face, she tore off a piece of her garment, picked up the needle from the ground, wrapped it and stuffed it into her saddle, and straightened up again to look around.
"So you hurt someone to save me...... "He Mulan touched the red horse's neck and pressed his face against it." You're really nice, Big Red."
Da Hong's expression rubbed his face gently, and he made a series of satisfied "puff" sounds.
It's unassuming at all times.
When He Mullan lifted his head from Da Hong's side, his eyes flashed with a shocking coldness.
The fact that there are people who are always ready to deal with themselves, and who are so varied and varied, is really unpleasant.
Especially the nightmare just now, a good "relaxation" trip has become even more depressing.
Such a nightmare, of course, cannot get out of the knot on Hermulan alone.
But luckily, she has a shining guiding light.
As a time-traveler who strayed into this time and space, this era has better characters as her benchmark. If she is already in a state of confusion and unable to struggle, then there is a foolish person who was born destined to fight against the whole world, and has gone far away.
"When I say I want to go on a personal expedition, I often just want to designate a suitable person to go to. But everybody is often worried about my own conquest, so they will compromise the result of my compromise."
"I know that reform can't be so urgent, my best expectation is the day after tomorrow, but I express my desperate hope to start today, and they will put me off until tomorrow. Then I've won."
"Of course I know it's going to be difficult, so I need to look for a team to fight with. [,! ] people. Mulan, I don't care if you're a woman or not......"
"Now, if anyone tells me what to do as the king of a country, I will reply to him, 'You yourself are the king of a country, and show me. According to the way you said that the king of a country will definitely become a king, go and build a country for me to see."
The arrogant forerunner had already felt a premonition of resistance, but never thought of them as pain, but simply danced with them in his own way.
You go in, I go back. You retreat, I advance.
Graceful co-dance, full of twists and turns of wisdom and compromise, is also a way to move forward.
Most importantly, His Majesty once said:
"You don't have to worry so much, because they're all going to listen to me."
As for Na Luo Hun, Di Ye Fei, and many more people, the pressure she was under had already been answered a long, long time ago.
"For ordinary people, we don't care about what kind of people we will become, how we will die, and how we will kill the enemy. We're just going to have to exhaust ourselves to catch up with you God-favored."
"I just thought, at least once...... I can get Mulan to rely on us for a ......."
So said the gentle fire chief.
"That's the dignity of ordinary people like us."
"At least let everyone rely on me once......"
He Mullan covered his eyes and couldn't help but laugh like a madman.
"Hahahaha! It turns out that no matter how tough I am, I'm just an ordinary person. What am I thinking of myself as a savior? "
"Hey, what are you laughing at!"
The gatekeeper looked at Womulan like a madman.
"Okay, let's go! Don't keep the pestle here! "
"How long have I been asleep?"
"It's been more than half an hour since you went out for a walk and came back."
He Mulan nodded, led the horse out of the city gate, and walked all the way to the market, and saw the Xia Guoshi who was still selling himself on his knees under the shed, so he was really sure that he had indeed been here.
She even saw the boss surnamed 6 chase him out with a few steps in his eyes, and she could only shake her head at him and leave.
He Mullan searched for the long street where he heard about compassion according to his memory, but now there is no such street at all, and there are no street scenes.
As for the people in the alley at the end, it's more like a scene she imagined.
She had made a bad mistake when she returned to the doorway after wandering around the market to no avail, and perhaps even that nightmare was caused by the monk.
As long as you find compassion, you may be able to know something.
She said that why would a person with such a cheerful and humorous nature as compassion say something like "the world is hell"? Love dyeing is raised by him on the outside and soft on the inside, and insists on his heart; Obsessed with being raised by him, he is at ease and fearless, these are the results of long-term exposure to hearing and seeing.
If a monk thinks that this world is a hell, why should he walk in hell and enjoy it? It must be full of hope for the world, thinking that it will become better, and then it will come out to "purify all sentient beings".
"Donor, do you see anything?"
A familiar voice came from in front of Hermulan.
He Mullan smiled dumbly, hurrying forward at the familiar voice.
"I ...... Then I saw a bowl."
The man who opened the door and looked curiously replied uneasily.
"No, what you see is not a bowl, but your chance to become a Buddha."
Compassion is full of unfathomable depth.
"I ...... I don't want to become a Buddha, I don't want to die......"
The man is already scared silly.
"It's a bowl, it's not a bowl. If you put something in it, you will hear a 'bang', and that sound is not a sound, but an act of kindness. You have proved that you have Buddha-nature because you have done good deeds, and those who have Buddha-nature can become Buddhas."
Kind-hearted and smiling, with a kind face.
"I'm not begging, donor, I'm looking for 'fate', and when you respond to your fate, you've become a Buddha. I'm giving you the opportunity to become a Buddha and respond to your fate."
"Ah...... Oh...... So that's ......"
The man nodded inexplicably.
"Wait, I'll see if there's anything else to eat."
After a while, the man poured a small bowl of chestnut rice into the bowl, and Cixin said a Buddha name, and stood outside the door and recited a sutra for the family.
When the compassionate heart was chanting, both the family and the smiling He Mulan who stood a few steps away felt that peace.
"I'm not begging, I'm giving you a chance to become a Buddha."
"In Buddhism, that's the Buddha; In Daomen, that's Lao Jun; In Confucianism, that is benevolence and righteousness; In generals, that's the ...... of faith"
"If you have Buddha nature, everyone can become a Buddha."
After reciting the sutra, he said some words of blessing to the family, and then asked, "What time is it?" The poor monk also has an appointment with people......"
"It's too late, Master, you're half an hour late." He Mulan walked a few steps to Cixin's side and laughed loudly.
"That's why I had to come to you."
"Amitabha Buddha ......"
Compassion smiled and turned back.
"I don't know if the donor is there during this time. [,! Rest well?"
"Well, I rested for a while, but my life was almost gone."
He Mulan smiled and looked at the bowl in his hand, full of joy for the "Buddha nature" in the bowl.
"It seems that the donor has another adventure......"
Compassion poured the chestnut rice from the bowl into the monk's bag on his waist.
"Don't talk about this yet, the master should give me my belongings, I have something to do......"
Hermulan stretched out his hand.
"What possessions?"
Compassion's eyes widened inexplicably.
"The donor is not dreaming, I am a monk, how can I take the donor's things?"
"Master, you're not kind, it's obviously you ......"
"Oops, the donor must have misremembered......"
"Hey, hey, Master, don't go! I'm penniless now! "
"The general can go and ask for fate, anyway, I really don't."
"Master, Master, I'm so hungry!"
"That's right, I've melted so much rice, let's go to the roadside with the general to change a bowl of porridge."
"Don't! Feed! Feed! "
