Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Heavenly Tribulation is Coming
The smiling Buddha was still smiling, but none of us could laugh when he said it: "I came all the way here, and you didn't prepare some food for me, but forced me to work first......
The madman hurriedly got up and went to cook, after all, there was a request for someone. Don't be too rude.
Rhubarb and the old cat and I didn't dare to say much at all, looking at the guy's temper, as if he was going to end up if he said the wrong thing.
Only my grandfather first poured a glass of water for the Smiling Buddha, then picked up the wine, and said to the Smiling Buddha: "This trip is difficult for you." "Let's say this, grandpa will do it first as respect.
The Smiling Buddha is not polite to anyone. But in the face of my grandfather, he stood up politely, raised his glass and said, "Old Lin Shi, I can't afford this." ”
My grandfather said with a smile: "You can afford it, for the sake of Tingxuan, you can be regarded as a loss of Yangshou to do this, this kind of great kindness, others don't know, don't I know?" ”
On the surface, this sentence seems to be said by grandpa to the smiling Buddha. In fact, it was he who he said to a few of us, especially Huang Tingxuan, Rhubarb originally wanted to ask this smiling Buddha to treat the madman's injuries. But he was rejected, and now he must not be very happy in his heart, but he didn't expect his grandfather to say such a sentence, which obviously made Rhubarb change his mind about the smiling Buddha in his heart. Come to the Zhen Tuan.
Grandpa continued: "Although such a thing as resurrection can be done by one person, it will damage the yang life of the person who rebels against the sky, after all, the harmony of yin and yang is the way of heaven, and if you do the opposite, you will be retributed." ”
Only then did Rhubarb realize what a great kindness the Smiling Buddha promised to bring him back to life, he quickly stood up, bowed his head and said, "Thank you to the Smiling Buddha seniors, great kindness, Ting Xuan is unforgettable." ”
The Smiling Buddha is still a smiling face. I couldn't tell whether this guy was happy or angry in his heart, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "That's it, don't listen to the nonsense of the old Lin Shi." What he said is mysterious, in fact, it doesn't necessarily really damage my yin virtue and yang longevity, in fact...... Your situation is special, maybe after saving you this time, it won't have any effect on me at all? ”
Rhubarb smiled and nodded, "That's the best." ”
The smiling Buddha suddenly pointed at my grandfather and said: "It's Lao Lin who has paid too much this time, you should really thank him, do you know, this guy reopened the eyes of heaven a few days ago, peeked into the will of heaven, and finally calculated that there will be a catastrophe in Sijiu City, and only a person who wanders in the two worlds of yin and yang, and does not belong to the camps of all parties, can stop this catastrophe......"
My grandfather looked embarrassed and silently took a sip of wine.
The Smiling Buddha continued: "Alas...... You must know that the way to peep into the sky is a great murderous technique that damages the virtue of Yangshou and Yin, and the old Lin Shizhu reopened the eyes of heaven for the future luck of Sijiu City and for the sake of the people of Limin...... He has done a lot more than I can do to save one person. ”
I broke out in a cold sweat and asked, "Grandpa, is what the smiling Buddha said true?" Have you really reopened your eyes? ”
Grandpa smiled and nodded.
"How much will it cost you to do so?" I asked even more anxiously.
Grandpa didn't speak, just waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about this, a gentleman does something and doesn't do anything, in the face of the catastrophe, these things are floating clouds, and a person's life and death are nothing at all." ”
"But...... Alas, but didn't you say that even if you know the destiny of heaven, you can't forcibly change your destiny against the sky? This can only lead to greater disaster...... Isn't it? I asked.
Grandpa nodded and said, "Yes, we really can't change our lives against the sky, but we can speed up the process of all this, not by tampering with the will of heaven, but by taking advantage of the situation...... Yang Yang, you must have heard of Dayu's water control, right? ”
I hurriedly said: "Of course I have heard that when the Kyushu flood, Dayu's father Kun used the method of encirclement and interception, and did not alleviate the flood, and waited until his son Dayu came on the field, and the situation was good, which dredged the flood ......"
"Yes, so now that we know the Mandate of Heaven, what we have to do is the same, take advantage of the situation, speed up the speed of the Heavenly Tribulation, and let this Tribulation pass as soon as possible." Grandpa said slowly, and there was a look of determination in his eyes.
"What do you mean......" Although I had a guess in my heart, I still didn't dare to say it without my grandfather's affirmation.
However, grandpa's words proved that my conjecture was right, and he said: "Since we know that this catastrophe will end because of a character who wanders in the yin and yang worlds and does not belong to any camp, then we might as well start with him, because he is the terminator of this catastrophe, as long as this person is found, then this catastrophe will really end......
Speaking of this, Grandpa looked at me, then at the old cat and rhubarb, and said, "This person may be you, the old cat, or Tingxuan...... Maybe even a madman and a smiling Buddha...... Or maybe it's me...... That's why I'm sparing no effort now to resurrect Tingxuan so that he can improve his cultivation. The catastrophe has not yet arrived, but when the catastrophe comes, we want to react, but we are afraid that we will not be able to rub our hands. ”
When we heard this, our faces immediately became serious.
Grandpa said, "Then this person, we might as well give him a name, let's call him the Savior, right?" ”
Seeing that we all nodded in agreement, Grandpa continued: "However, the time and method of the arrival of the Heavenly Tribulation are uncertain, so you must pay attention in the future. ”
We nodded hurriedly, all of us were like facing a great enemy, and we didn't dare to be careless.
The catastrophe is coming, and only by finding a savior can we stop this catastrophe that has swept the Yin and Yang realms of the Forty-Nine Cities, we must not be lazy, and we must remain vigilant at all times.
At this time, the madman came out of the kitchen with a plate of vegetarian dishes, put it in front of the smiling Buddha, and said, "Come on, please use it." ”
The Smiling Buddha was still smiling, glanced at the madman happily, and said, "Don't be so polite, you scared me to death, I really can't stand it." ”
It looks like the smiling Buddha is actually another kind of facial paralysis, similar to an old cat. The old cat has a cold face, expressionless from beginning to end, while the smiling Buddha is a smiley face, all with one expression from beginning to end, and if these two people walk together in the future, it will definitely make people think that they are playing a slideshow.
Because the Smiling Buddha wants to bring Rhubarb back to life, the crazy Taoist is now almost like serving his own father to serve the Smiling Buddha, not only accepting the pickiness of the Smiling Buddha, but also taking the initiative to give the Smiling Buddha loose and overworked legs and feet.
Rhubarb couldn't stand it anymore, so he hurriedly went over to do it for him, and the crazy man was quite conscious when he saw Rhubarb, so he simply sat aside and asked Rhubarb to massage the two old guys at once.
The smiling Buddha was eating fasting, and the grandfather suddenly asked, "Buddha, you came here this time, why don't you wait for the catastrophe to pass before leaving?" ”
The Buddha smiled, shook his head and said: "That's it, Master Lin, Lord Lin, I am not from Beijing, I am not from Beijing about the affairs of Sijiu City, to be honest, I am not as concerned as you, you let me save this kid, for the sake of your face, I will definitely not hesitate, but let me save these irrelevant people in Sijiu City, I still don't have such a high consciousness." ”
Grandpa smiled bitterly and said, "People say that their families are compassionate, it seems to be wrong?" ”
The Buddha smiled and said: "You can't say that, compassion is just a layman's statement, Buddhism pays attention to a reincarnation of karma, in fact, it is somewhat similar to the Taoist rule of inaction, since they have encountered these heavenly tribulations, it means that they are their karma, I can't interfere." ”
Grandpa couldn't persuade the Buddha to help, and he no longer made it difficult for others, so he had to bow his head silently and drink.
The Buddha also seemed to feel that he was a little unrighteous, and said: "Old Lin Shi, it's not that the Buddha doesn't give you face this time, it's just that ...... Alas, we only care about reincarnation, and the ghosts have already jumped out of the circle of reincarnation, and they are not under the control of the Buddha. If you really don't like the Buddha, you can scold me a few words, and the Buddha will scold you in vain! ”
Grandpa shook his head with a smile and said, "No, Buddha, you are too careful." After that, Grandpa suddenly pointed at us and said, "Actually, this time the catastrophe, our older generation should have withdrawn from the stage of history, and the real protagonists are a few of them......"
When I heard this, I couldn't help but get nervous, and when I looked back at the old cat and rhubarb, I found that the two of them were also frowning and nervous.
This catastrophe seems destined to be dealt with by our new generation......
