Chapter 270: The Ninth Reincarnation Zen

Although he knew that it was impossible for others to hear the conversation with the system, Xu Xian couldn't help but glance at Yang Chan who was standing next to him with a little guilt.

"What's wrong?"

Sensing Xu Xian's weak gaze, Yang Chan asked with some confusion.

"Huh? Not..... It's nothing, since there is a problem with this Yin Yang Zimu Lake, let's go and find out. ”

Hearing this, Yang Chan did not doubt it, nodded, and raised her hand to set a trick for the two of them to avoid water.

Glancing at each other, the two of them stepped forward together.

When one foot stepped over the ground and landed on the top of the Yin-Yang Zimu Lake, Xu Xian felt as if he had broken through some kind of diaphragm.

In the next moment, the mountains and rivers reversed, and the world changed abruptly.

Obviously, he stepped into the water of the Yin-Yang Zimu Lake, but after one step, what appeared in front of Xu Xian's eyes was not the sparkling water of the Yin-Yang Zimu Lake.

At the beginning of the blue waves, it is a high city wall on all sides, the city gate bears the traces of time, and the branches and leaves of two old trees outside the city gate are coiled with each other, which has been devastated by the years.

At the open gate, there were no pedestrians in sight.

"This should be the daughter country that disappeared from the Three Realms overnight, but I don't want the daughter country to be hidden in the Yin and Yang Zimu Lake all the time.

Although it looks like there are no living creatures anymore, in such a strange place, everything has to be more careful. ”

As she spoke, Yang Chan stretched out her left hand to Xu Xian, "Let's go into the city and have a look." ”

There are many secret realms in the Three Realms, and there have been many cases where two people who obviously entered the same place were separated into two places at an unknown distance after entering the secret realm.

So to be careful, holding hands is the best option.

Seeing the slender little hand with five fingers stretched out in front of his eyes, Xu Xian's eyes flashed with unnaturalness, but he did not refuse, and stretched out his hand to hold the hand that the girl stretched out in front of him.

"Let's go."

Trying hard to suppress the throbbing in her heart and pretending to be natural, Yang Chan smiled at Xu Xian.

Nodding, the two held hands and walked towards the vicissitudes of the city gate.

The river outside the city, although it is the water of the famous Mother and Zimu River of the Three Realms, is not a weak water that cannot float with goose feathers and a reed flower that sinks at the bottom, and it cannot stop the footsteps of cultivators.

Treading on the water surface as if walking on the ground, the two quickly walked outside the city gate of the daughter country.

Outside the city gates, under the old trees.

The two holding hands stopped in unison and didn't look at each other.

"Do you feel it?"

Yang Chan looked at Xu Xian and asked softly.

Xu Xian nodded, "I feel it." ”

When walking past the two old trees with their branches intertwined with each other in the air, for a moment, Xu Xian felt as if he had become another person in a trance.

A young man, holding another girl's hand, walked in front of the city gate.

The boy and the girl each planted an acacia tree in front of the city gate and made a vow for the rest of their lives.

The picture suddenly turned, and it was still outside the ancient city gate, and it was still the two people who were at the beginning.

The girl is slim, and the boy has grown up.

She was dressed in a bright red wedding dress like fire, standing under the tree, and pulled his sleeve tightly, "Don't go, okay?" ”

There was pleading in her misty eyes.

He tied one hand to his chest, chanted 'Amitabha', turned around, and followed an old monk on the road to his home in the four seas.

The yellow sand is long, and the wind is blowing.

She shouted behind her, "Chen Xuanzang, in the next life, in the next life, don't you bear me?" ”

With a smile on his face and tears in his eyes.

His departing back paused slightly, without looking back, without saying a word.

The wind whipped up the sand, blinding her eyes, and she couldn't see the decisive back of him when he left.

Time flies, and the ancient city records the joys and sorrows of many people.

A few years later, a high monk appeared in the Three Realms, and the high monk called himself Master Wuxin.

When asked what is "no heart", the monk said: "There is no ordinary heart, no infatuation, no Buddha heart." ”

Without a Buddha mind, how can you become a Buddha?

Then he asked, "Why not?" ”

The monk said to himself, "When I became a monk, I put my heart at home and forgot to take it away. ”

"Why don't you go home and look for it?"

"Monks, homeless, don't know where their home is."

Under the old tree, the mage smiled, glanced back at the mottled gate behind him, and turned to sink into the rolling yellow sand.

......

The years are ruthless, how much history is buried in the dust, and the old tree is heartfelt, recording the lives of the masters.

Later, the yellow sand rolled, and the master did not find his mortal heart, did not pick up his own infatuation, and did not condense his Buddha heart.

A few years later, the Buddha passed down the Buddha's decree: the people of Xiliang City blasphemed the Buddha's decree and punished the eternal life without male reincarnation.

It means to destroy the Xiliang country, however, more than ten years later, a little monk who is a golden cicada passed through the Xiliang country where only women remained.

The little monk was thirsty, went into the city to ask for water, and an old woman with mist in her eyes brought well water for the little monk and filled the kettle in the hand of the little monk.

The little monk drank the well water, thanked him and left.

When he went, he gave the old woman the kettle in his hand as a token of gratitude.

Seeing the little monk grow lotus step by step, submerged in the yellow sand in the sky, the old woman's hands holding the kettle couldn't stop trembling.

The kettle fell to the ground and turned into a lake......

Under the old tree, although it was only a few incomplete pictures, it still made Xu Xian and Yang Chan feel inexplicable melancholy in their hearts.

subconsciously clenched each other's hands, and the two looked at each other, everything was silent.

Continue to raise your feet, walk through the mottled city gate, and what you see is a flower-filled pavilion.

It's just that the streets that are in full bloom and should be crowded with people are not the slightest pedestrian.

Suddenly, the two of them realized that this city had already become a dead city.

"Ding~Dong~"

Suddenly, in the high pavilion in the city, there is the sound of the piano.

Subconsciously, the two stopped and listened to the sound of the piano.

In the distance, the sound of the piano seems to be accompanied by the sound of singing, and if you listen carefully, you can still hear a few sentences occasionally.

"If you see the mountains and rivers in my heart, you see them all"

"I prayed one step at a time"

......

The sound of the piano is melodious, the singing is tactful, and the two people standing quietly on the deserted street seem to follow the song and the memories of the owner, witnessing the life and life in the memory.

She was originally a thousand gold in Xiliang City, and he was the son of Chen Guoshu.

The two have known each other since childhood, childhood sweethearts, he promised her to live for the rest of her life, and she promised him not to marry.

It's just that everything is fate, and it's not up to anyone.

When talking about the age of marriage, the wedding date has been set, the wedding dress has been cut, and the red wedding dress has been worn.

On the eve of getting married, an old monk was ushered in in his house.

I don't know what he said, but on the second day, he was dressed in a cyan monk's robe, with a six-point ring scar on his head, and he regretted his marriage and went out of the city and walked into the yellow sand.

Upstairs in the ancient city, she would stand upstairs on that day every year to gaze, idiot, etc.

Waiting is one day, and waiting is more than ten years.

She couldn't wait for his Chen Xuanzang, but only waited for a heartless mage who claimed to have no mortal heart, no infatuation, and no Buddha heart.

She stood on the tower, watching him come, watching him tell someone else's story, watching him look back at the gate and then turn away again, just as she had done then.

It's just that.....

That time, instead of crying, she stood at the city gate, and she laughed at his back as he disappeared into the yellow sand.

"Chen Xuanzang, you still can't forget me after all!"

.....

The yellow sand became his tomb, and she was gray-haired, looking at the sunset, thinking about what they had been like back then.

In the next life, he has had an obsession since he was born, as if he wants to find something and send it somewhere.

Fatherless, motherless, parental, and unreasoned, he grew up in the temple freely, and the master gave him the Dharma name Jin Chan.

Jin Chan is twelve years old, and he has already known all the Buddhist scriptures in the temple, and even inferences from one another, the master who asked did not know how to answer, so he could only put up the master's shelf, let him think more, think more, see more, and ask less.

Twelve-year-old Jin Cicada, a master of Theravada Buddhism, is proud of his cultivation and does not know it.

It wasn't until the catastrophe came, and the catastrophe was broken at a glance, that he knew that he was about to enlighten Arhat.

It's just that as the day of the righteous path Arhat gets closer, the obsession in Jin Chan's heart deepens.

Looking for instinct, he traveled all over the world, broke through the Longtan Tiger's Den, entered the land of demons, sought it in the fairyland, and searched for it in the Buddha country.

It took seven years, a lot of hard work, and several near-deaths to survive, and Jin Cicada finally found what he was looking for.

It wasn't until he found what he was looking for that Jin Chan didn't know what he was looking for.

He wanted to find a pot, a yin and yang pot that existed in legends and could only be found by those who were destined to find it and was born from the six qi.

found the yin and yang pot of the son and mother, and the golden cicada knew that he was going to send this pot somewhere.

It's just that he only knows that he wants to send the pot, but he doesn't know where he wants to send the pot.

Once again, he traveled all over Kyushu and the Three Realms, and five years later, in the midst of the yellow sand, he found an ancient city that seemed to be isolated from the world.

The moment he saw the city, Jin Cicada knew that this was the place he was looking for.

After approaching the city, the first person he saw was an old woman standing in the castle tower with white hair, her face full of wrinkles, and the marks left by the years.

However, with just one glance, he felt like he had spent a lifetime.

The heart throbbed inexplicably, and a Buddha's heart was messy.

Jin Cicada begged the old woman for water, and when the old woman saw him, with tears in her eyes and a smile on her face, she personally drew water from the ancient well for him and filled the yin and yang pot in her hand.

He drank the well water, gave the yin and yang pot as a thank you gift, and left under the old woman's misty eyes, and disappeared into the vast yellow sand.

Only he knew that from the moment he walked out of Xiliang City, his Buddha heart was shattered.

In his subsequent life, he did not prove the Arhat Buddha fruit.

In the third life, the old monk took the little novice through the daughter country, and the little novice walked through the desert with a dry mouth, saw a winding river, and drank water happily.

This drink will create an inextricable relationship.

Fourth ......

Fifth ......

Sixth ......

......

In the ninth generation, Chen mutinied, the imperial concubine was unwilling to be humiliated, put the young son in her arms into a wooden basin and went down the river, and Concubine Chen committed suicide by jumping into the river.

Children flow down the river in the wooden basin, during which the fish and shrimp help each other, the animals protect each other, the wooden basin swims to the Jinshan Temple, and is picked up by the elder Zixu, the presiding officer of the Jinshan Temple.

Elder Zixu saw a young child in the wooden basin, so he picked it up and left it in the temple, naming it Jin Cicada.

Jin Chan knew 1,000 words at the age of three, read scriptures at the age of five, and at the age of eight, the large and small books in the Jinshan Temple were already well understood.

When he was nine years old, Elder Zixu was no longer able to discuss cicadas with his disciples, thinking of the records in his ancestral hometown, hundreds of years ago there was also a holy monk named Jin Chan in the temple, and at the age of twelve, he learned all over the temple treasures, Elder Zixu not only had a sense of kinship with the master of the golden cicada holy monk back then.

It's just that he won't be speechless when asked by his own disciples like the Wuyou Patriarch back then.

In that case, how much faceless will I be as a master?

Therefore, in order to maintain his majesty as a master, Elder Zixu summoned his own apprentice when Jin Chan was nine years old.

"Disciple, the treasures in the temple, you have almost finished learning, but you must know that the world is big, there are many Buddhist temples, far more than one Jinshan Temple, the road you have to walk, it is still very long, very long!"

After some education, Elder Zixu sent the golden cicada out of Jinshan Temple.

At the age of nine, the golden cicada began to travel all over the world and visit various Buddhist temples.

This walk is nine years.

Nine years later, the name of Elder Jin Chan spread all over the world and he became one of the few eminent monks in Buddhism.

Jin Chan returned to Jinshan Temple, and when he met the master, he wanted to discuss Zen with the master again.

Zixu is not willing, he couldn't do it nine years ago, not to mention that now Jin Chan has been studying outside for nine years.

The majesty of the Master's Fa, which was finally kept, is not this theory completely exposed.

For this reason, before Jin Chan put forward the proposal of Zen, the head of the Zixu Dao preemptively spoke.

"Disciple, it took nine years to visit all the Buddhist temples in the world, and now your Dharma is almost complete.

But don't be complacent, disciple, because what you're learning now is nothing more than the Hinayana Dharma, and even if it's a great achievement, it can only save a few people.

In addition to Hinayana Buddhism, there is also Mahayana Buddhism, and those who practice Mahayana Buddhism can benefit sentient beings. ”

Hearing this, Jin Chan really forgot about Zen, grabbed his master's hand and asked how to learn Mahayana Buddhism.

Elder Zixu was asked, he wanted to know what Mahayana Buddhism was like, and he was embarrassed by his own disciples.

It's just that, for the sake of Master's dignity, Elder Zixu naturally can't say that he doesn't understand.

So.....

"Disciples, Mahayana Buddhism, not to be passed on lightly, everyone who wants to learn Mahayana Buddhism, need to personally walk to the Great Leiyin Temple, pious worship, in order to seek the true scriptures."

As soon as these words came out, Elder Jin Chan did not have the slightest doubt, and said goodbye to his master the next day, left Jinshan Temple, and walked to Da Lei Yin Temple, wanting to obtain the true scriptures.

And Elder Zixu, who sent away the apprentices who embarked on the road of learning scriptures, was also a burst of Amitabha Buddha in his heart.

Well, to ask for Mahayana Buddhism requires piety, and you need to go to the Great Lei Yin Temple in person to get the true scriptures, and you are not lying.

Moreover, I am not so religious, so I have not learned Mahayana Buddhism, although I didn't tell Jin Chan, but I should ..... It's not a sham, is it?

In Jinshan Temple, the unreliable master is still struggling with whether he has broken the vows.

Under the Jinshan Temple, the elder Jin Chan is devout to the Buddha and has embarked on the road to the Great Leiyin Temple to learn scriptures.

Along the way, there were a lot of ups and downs.

Elder Jin Cicada repaired roads in the mountains, paved bridges in the water, and took one step at a time.

It took seven years to finally get there...... Xiliang daughter country!

ps: The big chapter of 4,000 words, it's the end of the month, the last two days, is there a monthly pass?
