144, Dewar
Coming out of Muka's lab, Aoki made his way up the mountain.
He didn't walk blindly, but followed a mysterious guide.
Around him, there was always something like a soap bubble hanging over him, a little bigger than a man and a little smaller than a house. You take a step forward, and it rolls forward a little bit, always keeping you from touching its edge. But if you don't, it will automatically drift forward, guiding you where it wants you to go.
It's a dream bubble.
It doesn't appear in the air. It appears in the consciousness of man. You can't touch it, you can't see it, but it's there, wrapping around you. The edge of it is right in front of your eyes, but you can never reach it.
It creates a membrane in your consciousness that is ready to allow you to enter the dream realm.
Aoki is certainly not afraid of being hypnotized because he is a dreamless person. But this dream bubble did affect his consciousness, which was more clever than hypnosis and more difficult to prevent.
However, Aoki was not in a hurry to remove the soap bubble of this layer of consciousness, because he felt that this dream bubble was not too malicious, but was just guiding him.
To be able to influence his consciousness in this way at such a distance is indeed a master. Aoki began to take a little interest in the woman named Dewar.
There is a temple on the mountain, the temple gate and the front hall are newly repaired, but you can still see a little bit of simplicity, which shows that it took a lot of effort to repair it.
The moment Aoki stepped through the temple gate, the soap bubble popped, creating several layers of waves in the surrounding space.
The waves came round and round, hitting his brain, like a scanner in a hospital, as if trying to scan his brain for something.
"So you're a dreamless person." The sound of Dewar coming from the temple was still peaceful, but not as ethereal as it had been.
Aoki hugged the poppy, stepped over the high threshold, and walked in on a tap.
After passing through the courtyard courtyard, you will enter the main hall of the temple. Of course, the so-called main hall is not as grand as those famous temples, but just a large square room with a Buddha statue more than three meters high in the center.
On the futon in front of the Buddha statue sat a woman in her thirties, with delicate eyebrows and delicate and smooth skin, just like a jade carving. Her hand also pinched an orchid finger, which was the same as the image in the medicine woman's dream, but it was a little more elegant and noble than the medicine woman.
"You're Dewar?" Aoki walked in and asked.
Dewar nodded, pointed to the couch in the corner of the temple, and said, "Put the child there." ”
The poppy fell asleep on Aoki's shoulder, her little face flushed, and the corners of her mouth were smiling, and she could see that she was sleeping peacefully.
Aoki put the beauty on the low couch, then went back and sat down on the futon next to Dewar.
"There is no food or wine in the small temple, only water, if you are thirsty, just drink it." Dewar pointed to a nearby water tank.
Aoki was not thirsty, but he was addicted to smoking, but he touched his pocket and found that the cigarette was gone. He looked up at the Buddha statue, scratched his head, and gave up the idea of asking Dewar if he had any cigarettes.
"I look like a master, but the apprentices you accept are really not good!" Aoki said.
Dewar smiled slightly: "Yao Pozi's father is kind to me, so I casually passed on some things to her about Qingming Awakening, but she is ignorant by nature, I am afraid that she will enter the evil path, so I pretend to trust the Dharma, but I didn't expect her to go astray." ”
"No wonder she says any spell at every turn, it turns out that you lied to her!" Aoki smiled, "She's going astray, and you, the master, won't stop it?" ”
"Everyone has their own calamity, and when she meets you, it is her calamity, and I don't need to stop it."
"And what about Muka? Muka met me and was also doomed, but you still wanted to save him just now. ”
Dewar sighed: "Muka is a natural awakening material, if you are willing to learn from me, the achievements are limitless." I have lived for more than 70 years, and it is rare to meet such a wonderful young man, and of course I would like to take him as an apprentice, so as to pass on my knowledge and complete the mission that I have not been able to complete. It's a pity that he is preoccupied with his worldly career and is not interested in the cultivation of the spiritual world. Otherwise, it may not be so easy for you to kill him today. I saved him with the hope that he would wake up after escaping death, and of course, most of this hope was in vain. ”
Aoki said, "If he agrees to be your apprentice, will you save his life no matter how many sins he has committed before?" ”
"Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground. Isn't that bad? ”
"If you put down the butcher's knife, can you really become a Buddha on the ground? Who do those who died under the butcher's knife go to redress their grievances? Looking for you? Or looking for the Buddha? Aoki asked rhetorically.
Dewar said: "Everything is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, and it should be viewed as such." ”
Aoki disagreed: "Do you think that a single sentence of the Diamond Sutra can make all sins disappear invisible? Even if a person sins in a dream, it is a sin. His sins come from his heart, and his heart is not good, and most of the sins that come later are also connived at by you. ”
Dewar smiled slightly, no longer debating right and wrong with Aoki, and said, "Speaking of which, my real apprentice is only one cuckoo. She is not a bad person, nor does she have the heart of fame and fortune in the world, but after meeting Situ, she has an obsession, and she often does things regardless of good and evil, and does whatever she wants. Naturally, it's her doom to meet you, so she must not be able to come back, right? ”
Aoki looked closely at the expression on Dewar's face and found that she was not particularly angry or sad when she talked about Cuckoo, but admired her composure and ease.
"It's true that the cuckoo can't come back, but I didn't kill him, and I have no intention of killing him." As he spoke, Aoki gave a general account of what happened in the cave of the Japanese army's pig pen.
Dewar listened quietly, sighed, and said the verses of the Diamond Sutra again: "All things are like dreams and bubbles, like dew and electricity, and should be viewed as such. ”
"You already knew about the situation in that cave, why didn't you destroy it earlier, and don't even warn your apprentice Cuckoo?"
Dewar shook his head and said, "That cave is just a broken old dream, which has been preserved with the help of the geography of the mountains and rivers. I don't really know how Situ restarted it in the first place. I went to see it later, and I didn't find anything special, it must have been your strong spiritual power that affected the stability of that space, and triggered something to activate the consciousness that remained in it from decades ago. If this is not a natural coincidence, but the designer did it intentionally, then Kitano Matake's ability is really incredible! ”
Aoki couldn't help but ask, "Do you know Kitano Matake?" ”
Dewar's eyes closed slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Yes, my mother once told me about this man. He was the greatest awakened person in the world and a respected Great Dream Teacher. Unfortunately, the war broke out, and he lost his mind in that war from which no one could escape. ”
