I don't know that after a few days, Pu Xingwen, who was successfully trapped by Ye Mingsheng, still has no intention of coming back.

There was Su Ling pacing in the courtyard waiting for him to come out of the illusion, but Ye Mingsheng on the side couldn't help but laugh when he saw it.

"He's different from you, he's just an ordinary human being," even though he knew that Su Ling had done a lot of things secretly to make Pu Xingwen become a demigod promoted to the ancient wilderness, but now it was only halfway through, and Pu Xingwen was still some distance away from becoming a real demigod, "If you want to wait for him to come out of it, you have to go through the test of Meng Brahmasha and impermanence, but if you wait for him to complete it, I'm afraid you will have experienced three lives." ”

"Three lives?" Su Ling's brows furrowed slightly, "Is this the condition for being promoted to a demigod?" She knew that Ye Mingsheng also had insight into what she was thinking before she dared to act so blatantly, and she would not stop it. Only by becoming a demigod Pu Xingwen can he continue his lifespan permanently, and to become a demigod, he must go through the test from the underworld, which is why Ye Xingwen tried his best to let Pu Xingwen enter the illusion hidden in the wanted warrant.

"That's right, it's the condition for promotion, I just want him to pass the test of becoming the king of Hades, and by the way, go through the conditions of becoming a demigod, and see which one he can pass in the end, if both of them have gone through and passed smoothly, then I will let him choose for himself."

"What if it doesn't make it?" Su Ling asked.

Ye Mingsheng's expression flickered after hearing this, "If he doesn't pass, he has no choice." ”

"You mean that if he doesn't pass it, he will have to be the king of Hades?" Su Ling couldn't help but speak in shock, he didn't expect that the inheritance of the Hades King would actually take such a forced route.

Ye Mingsheng nodded, "That's right, the Hades King has always chosen to come here this way, because he didn't pass, so ordinary people like Pu Xingwen will definitely be trapped inside." ”

There is Su Ling: "...... So? Is this a no-go option? "Damn, so she pushed Pu Xingwen directly into a pit that she couldn't climb out of? Forehead...... Or did she push it herself, and when she pushed it, she also said that she had a clear conscience, and she was even a little happy?

"And what else can I do to help him out?" Su Ling felt a little guilty, in order to make Pu Xingwen a demigod as soon as possible, he took a shortcut, who knew that there was such a condition, after all, she made it like this herself, if she could save it, it would be negotiable to slowly accumulate virtue and become a demigod in the future.

"Loving others is like holding a torch against the wind, there will be the danger of burning your hands, all evil should not be done, all good will be pursued, and self-purification will be the meaning of all Buddhists, such as one man fighting against ten thousand. Hang up the armor and go out, or cowardly, or retreat halfway, or die in battle, or return victorious. To learn the Tao, Shamen should adhere to his heart, be diligent and courageous, not afraid of the future, destroy all demons, and obtain the fruit of the Tao. The wicked harm the sage, still looking up to the heavens and spitting, not spitting to the sky, and falling from the fallen; Dust is raised against the wind, and the dust does not reach the other, but also to oneself. The virtuous cannot be destroyed, and the evil will destroy itself. Knowledgeable and loving, the Tao will be difficult; Keeping the will and serving the Tao, its way is very great......"

Su Ling frowned slightly thoughtfully, "Can you say something I understand?" ”

Nightshade, "......"

"You mean you can pass this test as long as you see through life and death, right?" Leaning against the table with his arms crossed, he quietly looked at Ye Mingsheng, and there was inevitably some curiosity in his tone, but it was only curiosity.

Ye Yingchen chuckled, "It's rare that you still sit like this, if you were in the past, I'm afraid you would have jumped up a long time ago, but your guess is not right." ”

Listening to the words of Ye Yingchen, Su Ling rolled his eyes, "If I just know you, I will definitely beat you first until I can't even recognize my mother, and at this time, you will still fight with me haha." ”

Ye Yingchen shook his head lightly when he heard the threatening meaning of her words, and said something that had nothing to do with what Su Ling asked.

"A tortoise can only move forward if it sticks out its head; Ants can be killed even by lions when they gather together; No matter how many sheep there are, there is no threat to lions. With the toad, the swan became so noble. The snake can't fly, but it can catch birds that call the sky home. With the right stage, the duck will also be a croaking character. Around what you crave the most, there are always traps. Only the fish that have escaped from the net are qualified to talk about freedom. ”

Su Ling grinned when he heard this, "I understand what you mean by this!" ”

"This feels like the story I'm going to tell below, in the early years of the Republic of China, a young farmer who was proud of his intelligence was wandering around the village, and he happened to see a mad cow tied to a tree with a thick rope, which seemed to be very painful.

He had an idea, and thought of a monk in the temple next to him who seemed to have Taoism, so he wanted to test it.

After entering the temple, he saw that the monk was meditating under the tree, so he stepped forward to say hello, and casually asked according to what he had just seen: "Ami camel Buddha!" Why do you want to do it? ”

Unexpectedly, the monk didn't raise his head, he still looked fixed, but there were words in his mouth: "Ami camel Buddha!" Because the rope is not broken. ”

The farmer was shocked and hurriedly asked, "How does the master know what I'm asking?" ”

"I don't know what you're asking." The monk shook his head and said. "But I know that everyone who is dizzy all day long, no matter people, gods, ghosts, animals, they are all bound by something, either a rope noose, or fame and greed."

The farmer was a little confused, but he seemed to be a little awake. He muttered, "Master, I'm talking about the cow, which is tied to a tree, so it's going round and round. ”

"Everything is the same. You're talking about cows, I'm talking about everything. The master opened his eyes and smiled slightly. Whether it is a cow or a person, as long as there is persistence, it is like being on a set, and it is inevitable to turn around. The more greedy and absurd the attachment is, the deeper the group will turn. If this continues, the cow will become a mad cow, and the man will become a mad dog, and eventually fall into hell. So much for. ”

"Oh, Master, I get something. So, how to get free? The farmer became humble and whispered.

The monk stood up, coughed lightly, and said, "Amitabha, the path to liberation is very simple. "Journey to the West" is well known to the world, and there are three brothers in it: "Wujing", "Bajie", and "Wukong", and Wukong has the highest ability, so doesn't it tell you the way to liberation? ”

"First of all, we must be sincere and good, cleanse ourselves of delusions, and make our state of mind spotless; Then we must quit bad habits and do nothing; Only then can we realize the Buddha realm where everything is empty and achieve a soul without greed and desire. The monk didn't care if the farmer understood, and continued.

The young farmer was stunned, he originally watched "Journey to the West" just to watch the excitement, how did he know that there was such a profound Buddhist principle in it! At this time, he thought about the cow under the tree, as if he had seen an insatiable ghost.

"I'll ask you." The farmer's ears rang with the monk's words, "I know you call us 'monks' or 'monks', but do you know what 'monks' or 'monks' are?" ”

"I don't know, please teach the master." The farmer hurriedly said.

"Monks and monks are foreign Sanskrit, monks are 'pro-teachers', and monks are 'pure and clean people', so if you want to not go around, you must first have the state of mind of monks; if you want to be liberated, you have to worship your 'pro-teacher'. Hehe. The monk shook his head and said with a playful smile.

The farmer was a little embarrassed. But he was satisfied, because he had said goodbye to the "mad cow" in his heart, and he knew how not to go around. As the saying goes: "There are flowers in spring, there is a moon in autumn, there is a cool breeze in summer, and there is snow in winter; If there is nothing to worry about, it is a good time in the world. ”

Ye Mingchen couldn't help but frown and wonder, "What do you mean by this story?" He suspected that Su Ling had an idea that he didn't know how to pretend to understand......

Who knew that Su Ling opened his mouth, "How do I know what it means, just open your mouth, don't you come when you open your mouth, I thought it was more than anyone who had heard more stories." ”

Night Dawn: "...... Can you be serious...... I'm talking about how to break this illusion now......"

“？？ You say you say it! Su Ling said busily, although she admitted that it was for fun at the beginning, who knew that Ye Yingchen had inadvertently talked about how this Zen illusion was broken.

"The levels of this test are all related to Zen, and in the past, I have overheard a few stories about it, which means that if you understand the meaning thoroughly, you will succeed."

"What's the story?" Su Ling asked, although she has no fate with the Buddha all her life, there is nothing to lose when she hears this story, and she understands it thoroughly......

Seeing her ready to give it a try, Ye Mingchen shook his head, if this Zen was so easy to understand, wouldn't many people be able to easily demigodize.

First story:

Shakyamuni said at a Dharma meeting: "There was a wealthy businessman in a certain place who had four wives together: the first wife was clever and lovely, and she accompanied her all day long, never leaving an inch; The second wife was snatched and is a big beauty; the third wife, who indulges in the trivial things of life, allows him to live a stable life; The fourth wife worked so hard and was so busy that her husband forgot that she existed.

Once, when a businessman was going away from home, he decided to choose one of his four wives to accompany him on a long journey. The merchant told his four wives what he thought.

The first wife said, "Go by yourself, I won't accompany you!"

The second wife said, 'I was robbed by you, and I was not willing to be your wife, so why didn't I go?'

The third wife said, "Although I am your wife, I don't want to suffer from eating and sleeping in the open, and I will send you to the outskirts of the city at most!"

The fourth wife said, "Since I am your wife, I will follow you wherever you go." So the merchant took his fourth wife and set out on a journey!

Finally, Shakyamuni said, "Ladies and gentlemen, who is this merchant? It's you. ”

"In this story, the first wife refers to the flesh, and after death she is separated from herself; The second wife refers to property, which is not brought with her in life and not in death; The third wife refers to his wife, who depends on each other when he is alive, and he still has to part ways after death; The fourth wife refers to the nature of the person, who is often forgotten to exist, but who is always with him. ”

A person's life is in confusion, if one day he can see through everything, get rid of the haze of life, he can be enlightened, this enlightenment is not what people say to leave everything behind, if you don't care about anything, everything has lost its original meaning.

If there is anything that Su Ling doesn't understand about the truth in this, it is probably that she never knows what Zen is meant to make people understand......
