Chapter 2: The Plane Ring
The Buddha said that one day and the moon shine on the four heavens, covering the six desires and the beginning of Zen heaven, which is a "small world"; A thousand small worlds cover one or two Zen heavens, which is a "small thousand worlds"; A thousand small worlds cover one or three Zen heavens, which is a "middle thousand worlds"; A thousand worlds cover one or four Zen heavens, which is a "great world".

Therefore, in Buddhism, there are 1 billion small worlds in our big world.
Whether the Buddha is right or not, you don't know, I don't know.
Perhaps, only when the Creator is found, he will give an answer.
Of course, many people don't care what this answer is.
What difference does it make if there are a billion worlds or a billion worlds?
One billion billion, I can only be in this world, and I can't go anywhere.
But what if you could travel to other worlds at will?

Chen Wusheng on the ground opened his eyes.
It's still that body, and it's still a childish face. It's just that in his eyes, there is already more maturity that has gone through vicissitudes.
He sat up slowly.
Raise your hand, I don't know when there is a black ring on the thumb of my right hand.
Unknown metal, without any patterns on it, so plain that even the luster is hidden.
Chen Wusheng suddenly smiled.
He stood up, reached out and stroked the broken square table that had tripped over him, and stopped at the word "diligence" engraved on the corner of the table.
This is my desk at home when I was in elementary school. After reading Lu Xun's "Hundred Herb Garden", in order to remind himself to be diligent all the time, he imitated the young Lu Xun and carved this word. The mottled handwriting has become filthy over the years. But it still evokes the most intimate memory in Chen Wusheng's heart.
"I'm back, I'm Chen Wusheng, I'm really back."
He muttered to himself, his eyes glinting with irrepressible excitement.
Suddenly, something occurred to him. Turn and look out the hallway.
The scene of the death on the ground has been almost cleaned up. The crowd still hasn't dispersed. The subject of the discussion was nothing more than who the deceased was and what the cause of death was.
The ambulance turned into a corpse truck and roared away. The police were preparing to take away the witnesses to the incident, one of whom was his father.
Chen Wusheng was not too worried, he knew that it would not be long before his father would be released. And the police will soon find his suicide note at Xiao Sun's home.
It was a premeditated suicide.
In his suicide note, Xiao Sun explained the reason for his suicide.
When he pushed his beautiful wife, who was pregnant with someone else's child, off the cliff half a month ago, he was ready to die.
Chen Wusheng could have stopped it, but in the end he gave up the idea.
Sometimes, death is not necessarily more painful than living.
Everyone should be responsible for their own choices, and so should he and Xiao Sun.
Looking up at the big clock hanging on the teaching building opposite, it was not yet 1 p.m.
Chen's mother, like Chen's father, is a teacher. It's just that she works in a junior high school in the countryside of Zhangping, riding a bicycle, and it takes more than an hour to go back and forth. When she came back from work, it would be past six o'clock in the evening.
"Well, there's still plenty of time."
Chen Wusheng's consciousness moved, and the next moment, he appeared in a space full of futuristic atmosphere.
It's a white world, and everything is white.
Chen Wusheng is wearing a black T-shirt and cyan jeans, although it is also very simple, but in this white contrast, it is still extremely dazzling.
He appeared in the middle of an empty hall.
Nothing but a comfy-looking sofa.
The sofa is also white.
This place, Chen Wusheng has obviously been here more than once. So he sat down on the couch unceremoniously.
"I said, can you paint this place some? I feel very uncomfortable looking at the same color all the time. ”
In the space at a glance, there is no one at this time, who is he talking to?
"Host, I'm sorry. None of the settings in the Plane Ring can be changed, and this is outside your purview. ”
It was the room that spoke. It's a female voice, although it's nice but it's a little dull.
"Permissions, permissions again. Since you call me host, do you understand what the Lord means? The Lord is the Master. If you call me master, then I can command you to do anything. Chen Wusheng was a little dissatisfied.
"Yes, host, you can order me to do anything, but you don't have permission to change everything in the Plane Ring."
"Okay, then tell me, who has this permission?"
"Host, I'm sorry. You don't have permission to know the answer. ”
Permission again. Chen Wusheng said dejectedly: "Forget it, I won't ask." ”
"Host, you can order me to do anything other than these two."
Chen Wusheng said: "I'm thirsty, I want to drink some water." ”
"As you wish. Host"
Then, Chen Wusheng suddenly had a coffee table next to him that looked beautifully carved, and on it were cups filled with water.
Of course, whether it's a coffee table or a cup, there's only one color – white.
Chen Wusheng didn't seem surprised by these things that appeared out of thin air. He sat down casually on the couch, picked up the cup and drank the water in one gulp.
When the cup was placed on the coffee table again, the water inside was filled out of thin air.
"I've found my 15-year-old body, as you said. What else needs to be done next? ”
"That's enough. Host. Now you've met the requirements for plane traversal. Dimensional travel can be started at any time. ”
"Can I know which plane I'm going to?"
"I'm sorry, host. I don't know where you're going to be teleported. So specific tasks can only be released to you when you arrive. ”
Hearing that the room didn't say the word authority anymore, Chen Wusheng understood, it seemed that she really didn't know.
But it is precisely because of the unknown that it seems dangerous. He couldn't do anything about it.
But so what, he was already a dead man. No matter how bad the future is, how bad can it be.
After thinking about it, Chen Wusheng said, "I don't know why you picked me. But since I can come back from the dead and return to my fifteen-year-old body under your arrangement, I am willing to keep my promise to travel to the plane once a month that you have spoken.
But for whatever reason, I think I must be different from ordinary people. So you need me. In that case, if I die in another plane, it will probably be a loss for you.
I may grow up in the future, but this is the first time I need your help. If you still want to see me again. ”
The room was silent for a while, and then said, "I know what you said is hope." But I'm just a program in the Plane Ring, and I don't understand what this emotion is.
There's no way I'm going to help you more than that's procedurally dictated. In another plane, all I can do is convey the instructions of the mission to you. This kind of instruction will appear directly in your mind in the form of brain waves.
In addition, I would like to warn you that you will not be able to return to the Dimensional Ring space until you have completed your mission.
However, the ring can still be used as a storage space in other planes. Anything you can hold can fit into this storage space except for creatures.
While you're in the Plane Ring, I can give you anything you want. But you can't take any of these things outside.
But if it's something you put in yourself, you can take it to any other plane. Of course, you can bring things from other planes with you as well. ”
