Chapter 178, A Different Illusion
After walking out of the White Horse Temple, as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the endless fields in front of him, and then turned around, he was actually standing in front of a small wooden house. He was no longer wearing a monk's robe, but a set of farmer's hats.
"Where is this? What's going on? ”
He frowned strangely and muttered to himself for some unknown reason.
"I'm awake."
After the sound came a woman's voice, he turned around strangely, and saw a young woman holding a bamboo basket in her hand, and walked out with a needle and thread in the bamboo basket and said with a smile: "I see that you have not woken up, but there is not much farm work today, you can rest and rest, don't be too tired." ”
"Who are you?"
Shi Xing asked curiously.
The woman was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips and laughed, then shook her head and said, "You like to joke, okay, breakfast is ready." Let's have breakfast first. ”
Shi Xing was stunned and speechless, raised his head and looked at the white clouds and blue sky overhead, this is not the White Horse Temple at all, but where is it? The young woman walked over, gently reached out and grabbed Shi Xing's arm, rested her head on Shi Xing's shoulder, and whispered, "Are you not feeling well today?" How do you look silly. ”
Shi Xing was taken aback. Pushing the young woman away, he also took several steps back in a row because of panic, looked at the woman in front of him in surprise, and hurriedly said, "Donor...... The donor is self-respecting, and the poor monk is not close to the woman...... "Push it over: Hey Yange can watch it without a bullet window."
"Master. Why did you arrange a different illusion for me and Shakyuki? Is there any purpose? ”
Deng Ran asked, having completely woken up from the illusion, he looked at the Master of Empty Purity strangely.
"Wan Lin is about to go to the Evil Land, with his current strength, I am afraid that there is still a great danger in the Most Evil Land, and the biggest threat to the Most Evil Land is not the demon or the Dao Gate, but our Dharma. If you can't become a Buddha, it's useless to help, but if you can comprehend your own shortcomings and improve your cultivation, then at least you can join forces with Shakti and pose a threat to the most evil land. ”
Master Kongjing's words are not embellished in any way, in fact, they mean double insurance, Shi Xing and Deng Ran are the two biggest guarantees that the White Horse Temple can send.
"But master, why don't you take it personally?"
Deng Ran asked strangely.
The Master of Empty Purity was silent for a while and then said, "Among them, it is inconvenient for Xuan Ao to say, if I make a move, the Yin and the Netherworld will not be weakened but will become stronger, and I can't go to the Evil Land. ”
What the Master of Emptiness said was very subtle, but the things he was hiding were very concerning.
"Then what is the purpose of these two illusions that Master Venerable arranged for me and Senior Brother Shixing?"
Deng Ran asked strangely.
"The illusion that is arranged for you is meant to make you aware of your own shortcomings. After all these years of cultivation, you are too proud and think that you should be the only person to become a Buddha, but in fact this is not the case. If you don't recognize your shortcomings, you are likely to stagnate and never become a Buddha. ”
Master Empty Purity explained, Deng Ran nodded and then asked, "What about Senior Brother Shixing?" ”
"His disadvantage lies in the aura of red dust on his body, if he can't cut off the red dust on his body, then even if he can realize the comprehension that my master left in the picture scroll, he will not be able to become a Buddha in his life, so you all have your own different problems. Different illusions are of different help to your growth, and the illusions in which the Buddha is in are different from yours. ”
After speaking, the Master of Empty Purity stretched out his hand and waved lightly, and a circular light appeared in front of him, and Shi Xing stood silently in the light. Still looking at what was happening in front of him with a look of surprise.
"What would you do if you went from being a monk to being a member of the Red Dust? Interpretation, can you see through the red dust? ”
The Master of Void Purification said softly, his tone full of anticipation.
At this time, Shi Xing, who was in the illusion, was sitting in the house, with a very simple breakfast, porridge, a duck egg, and a steamed bun in front of him. He looked around the house, there was a small television, a curtain opened the sides of the brick house, and there was a small bed in the house, and a green refrigerator was placed next to it. There is also a small house in the back, which looks like it was used to pile up clutter. On the whole, it didn't seem to be particularly rich, and then his eyes fell on the wall, and there was a photo hanging on the wall, which was actually a wedding photo of him and the young woman he had just seen, which suddenly startled Shi Xing.
Hurriedly stretched out his hand to touch his head, there was hair on the top of his head, and he didn't find any traces of the ring scar after touching it, and the ring scar was gone!
"The ring scar is gone, what's going on?"
He was more and more astonished that the young woman was sitting in the doorway, and from the very place where he was sitting could see her face, which seemed to be a dog barking, but at a distance.
"Have you eaten yet?"
The woman asked strangely when she heard that there was no sound inside, and at the same time walked in, and when she saw Shi Xing still standing stunned, she said strangely, "Why don't you eat?" I usually snort and eat in large bites, are you sick? Why don't you go to the county health center? ”
Shi Xing shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm not sick." But have I always lived here? I'm supposed to be a monk. ”
"Haha, here we go again!" Unexpectedly, the young woman pursed her lips and laughed, which made Shi Xing strange, and asked puzzledly, "Is there anything funny?" ”
"In the past, you often had some strange dreams, one moment you dreamed that you were the big boss, and the other you dreamed that you had dug up a treasure in the vegetable field you planted. This time it's good, I actually dreamed that I was a monk. Hurry up and eat, the village chief will take you to talk about things in the afternoon, isn't there a pig breeding project in the village? ”
The woman put down the bamboo basket, stretched out her hand and tapped Shi Xing's head, there was a strange touch when her fingers touched Shi Xing's temples, it was very real, but this was impossible for Shi Xing, he should be a monk of the White Horse Temple, and he should be following the order of the Master of Empty Purity to go down the mountain to practice and understand life.
"Paint, what about my painting!"
Shi Xing reacted and hurriedly shouted loudly.
"What painting?"
The woman asked curiously.
"One of my paintings, with a portrait of my grandfather, is there?"
Shi Xing asked curiously.
The woman looked at Shi Xing in front of her, frowned and said strangely: "It can't be really stupid, I think I'd better go to the county health center in the afternoon to take a look, otherwise something may really happen." It's all right, right? ”
Shi Xing was speechless in a daze, and then said, "My painting is missing?" Don't you see? A painting, a painting that is especially important to me, don't you see? ”
"No, what kind of painting do you have, if the booklet of your old man before he died, it will be locked in the cabinet, don't rummage through it, I'll sort it out......"
Shi Xing searched inside and outside the house for a long time, but he didn't find the scroll, and the whole person sat on the chair in surprise and didn't recover for a long time.
"No, but how could it be gone? How could my painting be missing? ”
Shi Xing sat on the ground in a daze, while the young woman ran out in a panic, and after a while walked in with a few people dressed as doctors, looked at Shi Xing on the ground and said, "This one in my family has suddenly gone crazy, you can take a look." ”
Several doctors walked up, stared at Shi Xing's face for a while, and asked a few questions, Shi Xing didn't have any response, and then one of them reached out and grabbed Shi Xing's arm, trying to pull it up from the ground, but Shi Xing pushed it violently, and as a result, he was even more dumbfounded, with his own kung fu and cultivation, it was not easy to push away an adult, but just now he obviously used his strength, but the man next to him did not react at all, and he could feel that he had no cultivation at all.
"What about my cultivation?"
He suddenly got up from the ground, looked at his hands in surprise, and then pinched a few tricks, he didn't feel the aura at all, and the Buddha's light did not appear, he was like a mortal!
"I've become a mortal!"
He rushed out and stood in the field, looking up at the blue sky, a little dizzy, did he really sit in a dream? When I woke up, I was a mortal!
