Chapter Seventy-Five: Four Things
Jia Lian, who was walking at the end, stopped when he passed by Miaoyu, who was welcoming guests on the side, and asked, "I haven't seen you for many days, Miaoyu, how are you lately?" ”
Miaoyu replied, "How is it good?" How is it bad again? ”
The two of them spoke, and followed everyone into the hermitage. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jia Lian only had time to say: "If the heart is good, it is good, and if it is not, it is not good; It's good to be happy, it's not good to be unhappy······"
However, Miaoyu didn't reply again, and was busy arranging for Jia Mu and others to pay homage to incense.
Because the temple is not large enough, it does not allow many people to worship and worship incense together.
Naturally, Jia Mu first went to worship the first pillar of incense, and after Jia Mu humbly bowed to Guanyin Bodhisattva, everyone took turns to go in and worship.
Due to the influence of the atheism of the soul in his previous life, Jia Lian experienced the most bizarre time travel himself, but deep down he still had a rejection of superstition.
At this time, even though he gradually believed that there were really some conditions in this world that mortals could not touch, Jia Lian still did not believe that if he knelt down to worship a clay statue, he would be blessed by the immortal Buddha.
It's just that Wang Xifeng couldn't stand Wang Xifeng's repeated begging, so he had to pretend to bow down.
Out of the Guanyin Niangniang Palace, Wang Xifeng went to serve Jia's mother.
Jia Lian walked to the back mountain of the Lucui Nunnery, looking at the scenery of the Daguan Garden in the distance, Jia Lian seemed to have such a feeling that was not very real.
By this time, the original Jia Lian had been Jia Lian for more than two years.
With the passage of time, Jia Lian has gradually and completely integrated into this world.
Facing these vivid characters every day, but whenever Jia Lian is alone at a certain moment, he can't help but ask himself: What is the purpose of his coming to this world of red mansions?
Whenever this happens, Jia Lian feels extremely empty.
Just when Jia Lian was alone in the back mountain, Miaoyu didn't know when she came to Jia Lian's side not far away.
I only heard Miaoyu say: "Second Master Lian, do you think you are doing well?" ”
Jia Lian turned around when he heard the sound, stared at Miaoyu, and said after half a sound: "I'm trying to make my life better." ”
Miaoyu did not dodge in the face of Jia Lian's rude direct gaze, and continued with her head held high: "What you call better, but do you mean that high-ranking official? ”
Jia Lian replied: "High-ranking officials are also one of them. ”
"Oh~ Then what exactly are you asking for?" Miaoyu asked again.
At this time, Jia Lian withdrew his gaze from staring at Miaoyu, and instead turned to the other side to look into the distance, and said: "I once heard a mother educate her son, Lian thought it was true, she said: As a responsible man, you must do four things well: first, you must honor the high hall in the world; Second, you must cherish your wife; Third, we must support our brothers; Fourth, we must protect the land under our feet!
So I don't resist high-ranking officials now, because only high-ranking officials can make me do the above four things! When I say this, does Miaoyu think I'm a vulgar person? ”
Miaoyu listened, and also followed Jia Lian's gaze into the distance, and said quietly: "The vulgar vulgarity may also be a realm, it is rare that you dare to break your heart so much." ”
I only heard Jia Lian smile and said, "Maybe in front of others, I will wear a mask to disguise one or two, but in front of you Miaoyu, it is not necessary." ”
"And why don't you have to disguise yourself in front of me?" Miaoyu asked.
"Because I said we're friends, aren't we?" Jia Lian replied.
This time it was Miaoyu's turn to be silent, and the two of them stood quietly in place, looking at the mountains and rivers in the distance, and the breeze blew the corners of their clothes.
After a long time, Miaoyu said first: "The first time I heard the name of Second Master Lian, I just thought that he was an ordinary wealthy son; After using the soap, I only thought that you had a pair of skillful hands and a head that would make money than an ordinary nobleman; Later, I met Jia Lian, and read "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" written by you and Concubine Xiaoxiang, and gradually admired your talent and erudition; Now you are highly regarded by the emperor, and you have both power and wealth; Today, after listening to your innocent words again, Miaoyu originally thought very highly of herself, but now she can't see through Jia Lian you. ”
The words came out of Miaoyu, who didn't say much, and it can be seen that Miaoyu now sees Jia Lian as different from others.
I saw Jia Lian laughing at this time: "Why should Miaoyu be arrogant, originally the human heart is the most unpredictable, and the most ordinary people have at least two sides, maybe Jia Lian and I have one or two more sides than ordinary people." ”
"Is the human heart unpredictable?" Miaoyu was attracted by Jia Lian's words.
Jia Lian said: "That's right, I have a story, how do you listen to Miaoyu?" ”
Miaoyu said: "If there is a Chinese ghost story or the legend of Shushan Wonder Heroes, Miaoyu listens." ”
I saw Jia Lian smile slightly, and then began to say: "It is said that the sect leader of the Sect of Exposition, Yuan Shi Tianzun, is one of the six supreme saints between heaven and earth, and there are twelve disciples under his door, also known as the twelve golden immortals; Among them, there is a disciple, called Cihang Daoist, who practiced in the Luojia Cave of Putuo Mountain······"
This paragraph that Jia Lian said is the story of how Cihang Taoist, one of the twelve golden immortals, betrayed Taoism, threw himself into Buddhism, turned a man into a woman, and became the Guanyin Bodhisattva among the three major scholars of Buddhism, known as the "Great Compassion Guanyin Bodhisattva".
Miaoyu listened quietly, sometimes frowning, sometimes nodding her head, obviously attracted by Jia Lian's wonderful story.
When Jia Lian's story came to an end, he only heard Miaoyu say: "You are really bold, today is the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva, but you told me about the secret story of Guanyin Niangniang's wild history, aren't you afraid that the Bodhisattva will blame you?" ”
Jia Lian said with a smile: "The Bodhisattva's mind must be as broad as the sea, and this little gossip is not enough; For example, Miaoyu, as a disciple of Buddhism, but you are mostly dressed in Taoist clothes on weekdays, and you can see that the Buddha blames? As the saying goes, as long as the heart is sincere, the rest is the appearance. ”
When Miaoyu heard this, she only felt that Jia Lian really saw something different, and suddenly had a feeling of being a bosom friend, so she asked again: "Is this story you said famous?" ”
Jia Lian replied: "Romance of the Gods." ”
""Romance of the Gods"? But what was written by the predecessors, or was it written by you? ”
"The Romance of the Gods" is a mythological novel by Xu Zhonglin in the Ming Dynasty, and now Jia Lian doesn't know if this book has appeared in the world of Red Mansions.
So Jia Lian replied: "I am fortunate to have heard an old man talk once, only remembered seven or eight out of ten, if Miaoyu is interested, I can talk to you again when I find time, maybe with Miaoyu's knowledge, you can complete and repair this Romance of the Gods." ”
"You're asking me to rewrite this book?" Miaoyu was surprised.
Jia Lian replied: "As long as Miaoyu is willing, why not?" ”
Miaoyu only listened to this paragraph, you can feel the majesty of this divine romance, in which the immortal Buddha characters are not made up out of thin air, and can tell the origin of the heel, if you can rewrite this article, it will also be beneficial for Miaoyu to understand the two religions of Buddhism and Taoism more broadly.
So Miaoyu was quite tempted and asked, "If you want to rewrite this book, why don't you do it yourself?" ”
I saw Jia Lian smile and said: "First, I don't have time, and second, text decoration is not my forte, don't you see that my previous two books were also ghostwritten by Sister Lao Lin?" ”
Miaoyu listened, and was about to ask why she didn't let Lin Daiyu ghostwrite this time, but came to find herself, but when the words came to her mouth, her face turned red for the first time, and the words became: "Let's not make a conclusion first, let's listen to your divine romance when you have time." ”
At this moment, a little nun ran back and forth panting, saying that Jia Mu and the others were going to leave after worshipping incense, so they came to invite Jia Lian and Miaoyu.
The two stopped talking and went back to the hermitage.
