Chapter 42: The Strange Blind Man Dies
Blame the blind man for leaving, and Jia Le felt very depressed. Although the weather was no longer so hot and suitable for working in the fields, Jia Le didn't want to go, he felt very tired, not because he didn't have a good rest at night, but because he was tired from his heart.
Jia Le returned to the house and lay on the bed not long before falling asleep. When the sun was about to set, Jia Le's parents and brother returned.
Jia Le asked his parents and brother to rest in the house, and did not let them help, so he went to the kitchen by himself to fry several dishes and cook them, and put them on the table before calling them out to eat. After the family had a happy reunion dinner, the parents said that they were tired and went to rest.
Jia Le wanted to chat with his brother for a while, listen to his brother talk about interesting things in school, and ask about his brother's test results, but when he saw his brother's tired appearance, he knew that his brother was tired and needed to rest, so he took his brother to clean up his haode room for him today. My brother was really tired, and when he saw Jia Le tidying up the house, he praised him a few words, and his two eyes began to fight.
Tiredly, he said to Jia Le: "Jia Le, I'm very tired today and want to sleep, let's have a good chat tomorrow, okay?" Without waiting for Jia Le to answer, he fell asleep on the bed.
As soon as Jia Le was about to open his mouth to reply to his brother's words, his brother's snoring sounded, Jia Le shook his head depressedly and said, "Why are you trapped like this!" He put a blanket over his brother and went back to his house.
When he returned to the house, he took out the painting that the blind man had given him and looked at it again, and the contents of it were memorized, after all, this "Prajnapara Secret Heart Sutra" had taught him by the blind man before, but he didn't remember it well.
Jia Le hung the "Prajnapara Sutra" on the wall next to the bed, turned off the light and lay on the bed, reciting silently while thinking about its meaning, and unconsciously fell asleep.
At midnight, there was a rumbling colossus in the sky, which woke up the people in their sleep, and countless people heard a clear and distant Buddha horn in their ears, just like the sound of Buddhism from the distant heavens, and the penetrating power seemed to penetrate everyone's soul!
A golden light shrouded the house where the strange blind man lived, and the night was as bright as day, and the Buddha chanted: "Nanmo Ali Yajana."

"This ...... This is...... This is the Great Compassion Mantra: "Many devout believers got up from the kang and ran into the courtyard, prostrate themselves on the ground, and bowed to the house of the strange blind man." And chant with all the Buddhas.
At this time, Jia Le, who was asleep, suddenly sat up, sat cross-legged, raised a palm, and shouted the Buddha's name: "Prajnaparami." Tears hung in the corners of his eyes, and he began to chant along......
For a time, outside the village and village, the Buddha bells, conches, bowls, and bronze statues in all the temples in the mountains and wilderness were not honking at the same time, making a buzzing sound, and the bursts of Buddhist scripture chanting gathered together and rose to the sky, and it was clearly audible far away more than ten miles away.
The chanting lasted for more than an hour before it gradually subsided.
When the morning dawned, the villagers rushed to the house where the blind man lived, and saw the door of the blind man's house wide open, and the blind man sat cross-legged on the ground, his hands folded, and his eyes closed. Although the strange blind man is a person who has great "mana" in the eyes of the people in the village and can predict good luck and evil, he is a foreigner, and he has no relatives in this village.
When Jia Le arrived, he saw this scene, and walked directly to the strange blind man and shouted loudly, seeing that the strange blind man did not move, he reached out to the strange blind man's nose and tried it, but he was indeed out of breath, and touched the body of the strange blind man, who had already lost his body temperature, and his body was already cold, and then the village knew that the "Great Compassion Mantra" last night was sung to the strange blind man.
Jia Le remembered what the strange blind man said when he left in the afternoon: "My mission has been completed, and I am leaving." Jia Le slowly walked to the corpse of the strange blind man, squatted down, hugged the strange blind man with trembling hands, his whole body trembled, his cheeks trembled, and his misty eyes looked at the strange blind man, shouting: "... Small... "No matter how you call it, you can't call out the word uncle."
Suddenly, Jia Le only felt dizzy, and there was a heart-piercing pain in his heart. This kind of pain is a pain that has never been seen before, and for a while there was a happy smile in my mind when the blind man teased him in the past, the appearance of coaxing myself to be happy when I was unhappy, telling myself stories, telling Buddhist scriptures, and teaching myself all kinds of pictures of how to behave, and unconsciously tears could no longer be controlled, overflowing from the sockets, and shouting heartbreakingly: "Uncle..."
It turned out that the blind man said, "My mission is complete, I'm leaving." "It's not about sending him paintings, books, or a small iron box, nor is it about leaving his house, but about leaving the world.
It turned out that the death of the blind man was blamed, and he would be so heartbroken. At this time, Jia Le realized in his heart, I don't know when, the strange blind man has already entered his heart. But the strange blind man has left, and he will never see the strange blind man who is good to him, coaxes himself to be happy when he is unhappy, tells him stories, tells Buddhist scriptures, and teaches himself how to behave.
The next moment, Jia Le hugged the body of the strange blind man tightly, burst into tears, and shouted in a choked voice: "Uncle, uncle, weishenme... weishenme… weishenme, you're just leaving, aren't you going to wait for me to call you uncle? How did you go? I'm calling you now, I'm calling you uncle, do you hear that? Is it okay for you to say something, I call you uncle, can you smile and laugh......"
The surrounding villagers watched this scene and were moved, and some people with rich feelings silently left tears.
"It turns out that the blind man is a monk who has attained the Tao, and he must have been taken away by the Buddha last night!" I don't know if the Buddhist said this, everyone looked at the strange blind man's current appearance, it was really the same as the legendary monk who was taken away by the Western Blissful Shijie, and for a time the believers bowed to the body of the strange blind man.
Originally, Jia Le's parents said that they would take care of the funeral of the blind man, but the believers who united did not allow him, they said that the blind man was a monk who had attained the Tao and should be handled by them, but Jia Le's parents said that they could not do it, so they had to do what they said. Because the body of the strange blind man was as hard as iron, and it was impossible to put him flat in the coffin, those believers said that he should be cremated according to the etiquette of Buddhist monks, but Jia Le threw himself on the body of the strange blind man and refused to let them do so.
When the strange blind man came out of the funeral, Jia Le walked in front of him with the portrait of the strange blind man, and sent him to the end like a son, and after the funeral man left, he also cried in front of the strange blind man's grave.
Everyone knew that the strange blind man was on good terms with Jia Le, and after the aftermath was settled, those believers and the prestigious people in the village discussed together, and then gave Jia Le the scriptures left by the strange blind man.
Blame the blind man's house that he bought with money after he arrived in the village. Those believers and people with prestige in the village were also going to give Jia Le, but Li Buzhan, the village party secretary, said that it should belong to the village collective. Both sides were reasonable, and no one could convince anyone, but Jia Le's parents said that they would return to the village collective, and the believers and the people with prestige in the village asked Jia Le's opinion again, so Li Buzhan was dismissed and returned to the village collective.
After Jia Le went home with the scriptures, he remembered what the strange blind man said before his death, "The color is not different from the empty, the empty is not different from the color; Color is emptiness, and emptiness is color. One thought, the Buddha is in Pudu sentient beings, and one thought, the demons are born in the world. ”。” That sentence, but Jia Le almost broke his head, and still couldn't figure out what it meant.
In order to find out what the strange blind man said, Jia Le looked through all the Buddhist scriptures left by the strange blind man, but still could not find the answer.
Seeing that there was only one miscellaneous book left and hadn't read it, he flipped through it, looked at it, and a paragraph attracted Jia Le, only to see that it read: "The small is hidden in the wilderness, the middle is hidden in the city, and the big is hidden in the court." ”
Isn't that what the blind man said when he left? What does this good mean? Remembering what the blind man had said, Jia Le really wanted to know what it meant, so he continued to read it.
"The small is hidden in the wilderness, the middle is hidden in the city, and the big is hidden in the court.
This sentence has been widely circulated since ancient times, but it all means the same thing: hidden and wild means that capable people want to rely on the surrounding environment to forget about the world and indulge in the world, which refers to Xiao Yin.
The truly capable people are hidden in the market, where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, which refers to the hidden.
Only the top people will be hidden in the government and the opposition, although they are in the hustle and bustle of the current affairs, but they can be wise and foolish, indifferent, this is the real hermit.
In this era, if you hide in a place of poor mountains and bad waters, people will have to be stupid if they are not crazy. But there are too many intrigues and intrigues in the political court, intrigues, and people are exhausted. ”
"What does the blind man mean by telling me this? He weishenme told me about retreating to a little child? He weishenme said that this small mountain village is not for me, and I have to leave here sooner or later? I'm going to get out of here? Here is my father and mother, there is my home! "It's a pity that the blind man is no longer alive, and no one can tell him the answers to all these questions.
Jia Le is not a more serious person, since he can't find the answer, he will put it down for the time being. What puzzled him was that he had memorized all the scriptures after only turning them over once, and although most of them were known only and not why, there was a sense of familiarity, as if he had learned them before, but had forgotten them.
