Bodhi had a dream in which he was sleeping under the Bodhi tree.

Sleeping under the linden tree, he had a dream about a young girl.

The girl is not too pretty, but it is attractive, not too gentle, but cute, not too outstanding, but it happens that he likes it.

The maiden walks in front, and he chases behind.

I chased it for a long, long time, but I couldn't catch up.

At one point, the girl suddenly turned around, "Why do you always follow me?"

"I," he said, looking down at the road under his feet, "there's only one way." ”

The girl pondered, nodded, turned and continued walking, and he continued to follow.

Following, following, the girl suddenly turned back again, "I went the other way, why are you still following me?"

He looked down, and sure enough, there was a fork in the road behind him, and the road under his feet, where she was, was at the end.

So, she came from one road and out of another?

"Because there's a road here, too. ”

The girl nodded and continued walking.

Walking, walking, and suddenly turning back, "Why are you still following me?"

He bowed his head, and there was no road under the girl's feet, and the place where he walked was deserted.

But behind him, there was a long trail that he had walked.

There is no way forward on this road, and he is the end.

"I..."

He laughed and quibbled, "This is obviously the way I came out, obviously you followed me." ”

"But," the girl hesitated, "I'm in front." ”

"Do you have a path under your feet?"

She shook her head, "No." ”

"Then who walks the road under my feet? ”

"You. ”

"Then why are you on this road?"

"Because..."

The girl didn't know, stopped, didn't go, and sat on the ground in distress.

"But, I'm in front of you. ”

"Well, but that's my way. ”

"That..."

"You have gone my way, and you have to make amends to me. “

The girl was angry and puffed out, "Then you have been following me before." ”

He quibbled, "That's everyone's way." ”

"But... But then I went the other way. ”

"And what about your path?"

"You're gone. "The girl was depressed.

"Why is your path being taken by me?"

"I..."

The girl wanted to say that I just didn't want you to follow me, so I deliberately didn't leave a trace, how do I know that walking this road will become yours.

It's just that when she opened her mouth, she still didn't say anything.

"If you can't tell? Then you'll have to make it up to me. ”

The girl glared at him, "Then how do you want me to make amends?" ”

"Hmm," he pondered, looking at her, and seeing that he liked even the way she pouted angrily, "then you can follow me." ”

"Huh?"

"Follow me, where I go, where you go. ”

"But..."

"You want to play tricks?" he interrupted the girl's argument.

"No, I didn't. ”

"Then you can follow me. ”

"How long is that going to follow?"

"Hmm," he thought, "until I follow you out the other way." ”

He thought to himself, you have been following me, where can you go out of another way?

She didn't expect it and nodded, "Okay then." ”

He smiled, smiling and walking forward.

The road went farther and farther, and there were some people walking on the first big road.

Walked to the fork in the road, saw the road she had walked, and walked on the road.

He walked through the part she had walked, and walked the same path he had taken.

The road widened and widened, and more and more people followed him.

When he looked back at her, he found that he was flustered.

What's going on? Why are so many people following me?

What do they want to do? What are they doing with me?

They're not here to rob her from me, are they?

That doesn't work, I have to hurry up, I can't be overtaken by them.

He walked faster and faster, faster and faster, leaving all those people behind.

She's been following, she's been following, she's tired.

puffed out, "Can you wait for me, you're walking so fast, I'm tired to follow." ”

He stopped and waited for her.

She smiled at him and jumped in front of him.

"Okay, now I'm in front, here are my footprints." ”

Him: "....."

I really didn't expect her to learn to play tricks.

It's just that he said before that she didn't have to follow him when she walked out of a way, so there was no way.

"Alright then, you can go. ”

He wanted to... I'll go wherever she goes, and if she doesn't follow me anyway, I'll follow her.

However...

The girl pouted and glared at him, "You want to lie to me again." ”

He doesn't understand, how can I lie to you? I didn't cheat this time, and I gave you back your freedom.

However... The girl glared at him angrily, "Do you know how tired you are walking in the wilderness?"

He nodded, of course he knew that nine out of ten of this road was taken by him.

As he walked forward, he had to guard behind him so that he couldn't let the guys catch up.

What if you catch up with them and snatch her away?

"Then you're going to let me go?" the girl glared at him, "I'm not leaving, I'll follow you." ”

He was a little confused, not understanding what was going on.

In a daze, he went on again.

Walk, walk, walk.

I don't know how far I walked, I don't know how long I walked, but faintly, he heard many, many sounds.

And he heard behind him those who worshipped him, who praised him, who sang praises to him.

They didn't know what his name was, they said he was a Buddha, and they were grateful that he had walked this path and had allowed them to follow him.

He didn't bother to bother with those things, so he buried his head and walked forward, to a place where no one had walked.

Where no one has walked, there will be no one else, and without others he will be safe, and she will not be snatched away.

When he was tired of walking, he looked back and she followed him.

He didn't know how long he had been gone.

Suddenly... The light and shadow changed in front of him, and Bodhi found himself sitting on a golden lotus platform.

He was surrounded by many, many people, some people, and some people who were not.

The Draconaya, the Asura Garuda, and the Bodhisattva Bhikshu were all looking at him, as if expecting him to say something.

He panicked... What are you all looking at me for?

He was even more panicked... The girl who had been following him was gone.

There are many, many people around him, but there is no her.

Where did she go? Didn't she say she was going to follow him all the time?

Didn't you say that you were too tired to walk on your own?

He searched, searched all the beings in front of him, but could not find it.

He was depressed and didn't want to talk.

All the beings around him looked at him, but they all lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak.

He wanted to ask, to ask if anyone had seen her, but he didn't dare... He didn't know any of these people, so terrible.

He bowed his head and said nothing, and his face was calm.

Then, I don't know how long it was, a person next to him suddenly whispered.

He listened and heard the man say that he had come to his senses.

He was curious, what did he realize?

That person said that he was enlightened, and he was enlightened: the Buddha said: The four are empty.

He thought, no one is talking here, how can he realize that the Buddha said that the four are empty?

Oh no!

Who is a Buddha?

When he saw that everyone was looking at him, he panicked, lowered his head again, and said nothing.

These people look at him, they want him to speak, right?

He didn't realize anything, he didn't even know who the Buddha was, how could he know what to enlighten?

Seeing him bow his head, everyone stopped talking again.

After a long time, another person next to him whispered that he had come to his senses.

And he listened attentively, and how could anyone have come to his senses? What has he realized?

The man looked at him in the eyes of the crowd and said that he had realized - the Buddha said, "No sorrow or joy."

He nodded noncommittally, ready to get by.

These people are really, you will realize when you understand it, why do you keep looking at me?

I didn't realize anything, and I didn't want to, I just wanted to know where she had gone.

Why can't I see her in the blink of an eye?

Seeing that he nodded slightly, the man's face was happy, and just as he was about to speak, he decisively lowered his head again.

These guys must have wanted to see him laugh again, knowing that he didn't understand anything, and they all looked at him one by two.

After that, one after another, from time to time someone said that they had come to an enlightenment.

Some of them realized that the Buddha said to be compassionate.

Some people realized that the Buddha said to quit greed and hatred.

The more they realized, the more panicked his heart became.

He said to himself, what's going on? Why are these guys all enlightened?

So what should he do? He didn't realize anything, would he be looked down upon if he was mixed up with this gang?

No, don't panic! Be calm!

Although I am panicked like an old dog, I must behave calmly and calmly.

Although he didn't want to mix with these guys, he wondered if he could wait until he got acquainted with someone to ask if anyone had seen her.

In this way, there are more and more enlightened people, and he is more and more panicked in his heart, but his face is more and more calm and calm.

It doesn't matter if you're really enlightened or not, I'm pretending to understand anyway, do you know if I understand?

Even in order to pretend to be a little more like, he occasionally listens to someone's content and nods slightly, pretending to understand.

And every time he nodded, the faces of the people would be happy, and then they quickly calmed down as if they remembered something.

In this way, the scene became more and more serious, and even the seriousness made him feel a little depressed.

As more and more people become enlightened, there are fewer and fewer people who are not enlightened, and his heart becomes more and more panicked.

When they all come to their senses, they don't understand anything, will they feel stupid?

If they think I'm stupid, won't they play with me?

If you don't play with me, who do I ask?

So... Shall I also pretend that I am enlightened?

So what do I realize?

Well... They have understood many things, so what am I going to understand?

Enlighten the sky above your head?

He pointed to the sky with one hand, and shook his head slightly, no, no... I'm not familiar with this thing.

That... After all, he himself has walked out of an old elder's long path, and he is quite familiar with the ground under his feet.

And then... He shook his head again.

No, it still doesn't! There's half of her in there, and he can't have it to himself.

But... So what did he realize?

Except for heaven and earth, what others don't understand, he is familiar with, as if it is himself.

He pointed to himself and thought, "Then I realize myself... Shouldn't there be any problem, right?

This one... It seems that there can be!

Thinking, he opened his eyes and looked at everyone.

As a result, it was strange to find that everyone present looked at him in unison, and their eyes did not blink, as if he had flowers on him.

And then... He heard everyone in the room muttering in unison.

The Buddha said: Heaven and earth, I am the only one.

He's confused!

Buddha again?

Why is this Buddha so awesome? He didn't even speak, how could everyone realize what he was about to say?

And also... This Buddha actually said that he is the only one in heaven and on earth, isn't it a bit shameless?

Thinking like this, he just wanted to see where this Buddha was, why didn't he see it all this time!

Obviously, the Buddha said that I am the only one in heaven and earth, what do they all look at me for?

Could it be that I really have flowers on my face?

He touched his face, and as soon as he was about to raise his hand, he paused violently.

Because there is a person who said that he was enlightened, and he realized that the Buddha said that he should abstain from seven emotions and six desires.

He frowned, he actually wanted to quit seven emotions and six desires, this Buddha... It's not like him!

In the future, we have to leave this Buddha origin.

With this thought to himself, he continued to touch his face.

A touch... I really touched a flower.

I took the flower, put it on my nose and sniffed it.

Well?

This flower... There's her breath!

The long gloom was instantly washed away, and he laughed at once.

He smiled, and everyone in the audience was stunned, except for one person next to him, who hesitated for a short time and laughed with him.

That man, he remembered, had said when he had heard people talk about it before... He seems to be calling the family business. I don't know if it's these two words, but it's supposed to be this sound anyway.

He didn't pay attention to him, and if he squeezed his palm, he closed his eyes and sensed it.

Searching for the scent left by the flower, he found her at once.

And then... He saw her flying from afar.

There is colored light on his body, and there seems to be a golden wheel of light looming behind him.

She approached and looked at him with complicated eyes.

Ask, "Can I become a Buddha?"

He panicked all at once!

What the?

She wants to become a Buddha?

Is she a Buddha?

But... Didn't you say that the Buddha should abstain from seven emotions and six desires?

She is about to become a Buddha, what will he do?

He hurriedly shook his head, "No!"

In a word, the audience was stunned and looked at him in unison.

She looked at her, pouted and expressed her dissatisfaction, as if she had been dissatisfied with his deception, and asked, "Why? All beings can become Buddhas, why can't I become Buddhas?"

He doesn't care what sentient beings are or not, he just doesn't want to be a Buddha and she doesn't become a Buddha anyway.

Beings... What does it have to do with him?

He looked at her, "All beings can become Buddhas, but you can't become Buddhas." ”

She looked at him with a complicated look and nodded.

Turned around and left.

He was stunned and wanted to chase him, but was stopped by a group of people who surrounded him and asked questions.

He heard them surrounding him, calling them Buddha.

He froze.

He got up.

He wanted to chase it.

And he woke up.

When he woke up, he was still under the linden tree.

Under the Bodhi tree, a familiar girl walked towards him.

Looking at him and asking, "Is the Buddha good-looking, or am I good-looking?" ”

He said, "The Buddha is good-looking, and the Buddha gives birth to all beings." ”

She nodded, and he said, "But the Buddha is not like you." ”

She smiled and nodded, telling him, "I know." ”

After saying that, the man gradually became illusory, and he reached out to grab it...

The moment he raised his hand, he grabbed a cold, round thing.

When he opened his eyes, he sat on the walls of Dawning City with a wooden fish hammer in his hand.

Leaning against the battlements of the wall, he remembered a story from Myoho-renge-kyo: Devadattapin.

"The Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Dragon, both human and non-human, have seen the Dragon Girl become a Buddha from afar. ”

He threw the wooden fish and the wooden fish hammer aside, and looked up at the clouds in the sky.

He said softly, "But, it was the Buddha who made me break my vows, and it was the Buddha who asked me to find you!"
