276 Sutras
286 Buddhist scriptures
"What's the solution?" Everyone asked in unison. Originally, Xiao Zhonghua and the others had always been very quiet, but after listening to Gu Fengchun's words, they were faintly not very calm. No one can guarantee that they won't have a cranky moment, what if one guy can't control it and comes up with a giant Tyrannosaurus rex or two? Then everyone will serve it in one pot. Anyway, the situation at the moment is just to treat a dead horse as a live horse doctor, if the method is useful, then it is the best, take 10,000 steps back, the method is invalid, then it is already like this, no matter how bad the situation is, it is just like this, right?
Chen Si pondered for a moment, and said stubbornly: "It's a Buddhist scripture." This method is also a thought that suddenly popped up between the lightning and flint in his mind, and he didn't know if it really worked. In the teachings of Buddhism, everything in the world is false. Buddhism is to teach people to get out of the illusion of thinking and doing knowledge, get out of the way, and become a Buddha with an epiphany, so Chen Si thought of these. In the previous grotto, Chen Si had seen the power of Buddhist scriptures, and according to the method recorded in the inscription in the grotto, Luo Xiaodan opened the door of the grotto, and Chen Si was very impressed by that move.
Everyone was stunned. But Chen Si continued, he vaguely felt that his idea was very reasonable. The reason is simple. Luo Xiaodan has a delusional pupil. This kind of delusional pupil is also recorded in the Buddhist scriptures, distinguishing all good and evil, true and false, and true and delusional Buddha eyes in the world. In the records on the Eight Wonders, there is something related to Buddhism, which is not very usual. Therefore, Chen Si has reason to believe that this Buddhist scripture may really work.
However, Chen Si was in trouble. Although he was erudite, he also studied the Buddhist scriptures cursoly, and he could not do it if he was asked to suddenly find a complete and valid Buddhist scripture. He turned his eyes to the mammoth standing behind him and said, "Do you have any research on Buddhism, can you recite one or two Buddhist scriptures?" Chen Si thought to himself, anyway, Buddhism came from India, although Buddhism is not very popular in India now, but there are still more or less people who believe in Buddhism, right? It's just that Chen Si rushed to the doctor, and he didn't think that Mammoth is an Indian, and it is good to be able to communicate with everyone in simple Chinese, even if he understands Buddhist scriptures, he can't translate them back to teach everyone, right? If you can't translate it, it's impossible for him to teach everyone to recite Buddhist scriptures in the native Indian dialect in English, right?
Mammoth's face was embarrassed, and he hurriedly said, "I don't understand, I ......" He wanted to say that he believed in Jesus, but he was afraid of being despised by everyone, so he hurriedly swallowed the words back into his stomach. Chen Si was also embarrassed. The solution is to come up with it, but in front of me is the embarrassing scene of knowing the patient's condition and prescribing medicine, but there is no medicine to catch.
Gu Fengchun smiled indifferently. He also thinks that this option may work. Buddhist scriptures have the effect of stabilizing the divine consciousness, even if they can't solve the illusion in front of them, it can also have the effect of calming everyone's minds, which is better than making everyone think cranky. Gu Fengchun said to Chen Si: "Buddhist scriptures, I still remember how many volumes, I don't know which one I want?" ”
Chen Si was overjoyed in his heart, and said secretly: "How can I forget this guy." Gu Fengchun is also a knowledgeable and talented person, but he has one thing that makes Chen Si sigh to himself, that is, he will never forget. Of course, if something is too long, I believe that Gu Fengchun may not be able to memorize it after reading it a few times, but some short and catchy sentences, he really doesn't need to read it a second time.
"What Buddhist scriptures do you know?" Chen Si asked.
"There are "Heart Sutra", "Diamond Sutra", "Lengyan Sutra", ......" Gu Fengchun wrenched his fingers and counted them one by one.
"Okay, okay, let's have the Heart Sutra." Chen Si didn't have to weigh it, so he made a choice. Although he is not like Gu Fengchun's remorse of Buddhist classics, he knows that Chen Si knows that the several Buddhist scriptures that Gu Fengchun said have an extremely important position in the status of Buddhism. "Heart Sutra" needless to say, only just 260 words, but condensed all the essence of Buddhist teachings in it, thousands of years, countless Buddhist masters have respected it, and "Diamond Sutra" is the most important classic of Buddhism, for the "Lengyan Sutra", the ancients have made the best evaluation "Since the first reading of Lengyan, do not look at the dregs of the world!" ”
The reason why Chen Si chose the "Heart Sutra" is also Chen Si's reason, because the Heart Sutra is very short, only 260 words, and catchy, unlike other "Diamond Sutra" and "Lengyan Sutra" as many words, the "Diamond Sutra" alone has almost 6,000 words, and there are some obscure and very long sentences, and it takes a long time to learn to memorize it. And many classic sentences in the Heart Sutra, such as "emptiness is not different from color, color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is color, color is emptiness" and other sentences, even if it is a group of Qiu Ba under Xiao Zhonghua, you can learn a few sentences casually when watching TV series.
Gu Fengchun nodded and said, "Okay, let's learn from me." Listen up. Gu Fengchun cleared his throat and recited in a low voice: "Guanzi Bodhisattva. When the line is deep and the Prajnaparamita is ......" (245 words omitted here), everyone also hurriedly concentrated on reading it, and after Gu Fengchun recited it three or four times, everyone basically finished learning the Heart Sutra he taught. It's just that when everyone was reciting the Heart Sutra, they didn't notice that the images of the characters carved on the railing gradually became clearer, and those lotus flowers became even more delicate......
……
After teaching everyone to recite the Heart Sutra, everyone immediately recited the words and followed Chen Si to continue walking. Chen Si felt a little funny, but he suddenly thought, "Was it because he was proficient in Buddhist scriptures that he didn't lose his life in this place?" After thinking about it, he thought it was very likely. Otherwise, Kublai Khan would not have been so highly regarded by the Buddhist master Paspa, who gave him a very high status.
Thinking of this, Chen Si felt a little relieved, if this Buddhist scripture was effective, then they would save a lot of trouble on this trip. After walking along the stairway for about half an hour, nothing unusual happened along the way, and everyone was secretly relieved.
However, after walking for so long, we didn't encounter anything other than the endless stairway. After walking for about five minutes, suddenly there was a sound of "rustling" overhead. Everyone couldn't help but look up.
I saw that the back of the spiral-shaped stairway above my head was densely crawling with insects, which were beige and wriggling. It can be seen that everyone's scalp is numb.
…… Isn't this the same "termite" that chased them all the way in the Misty Forest?
