The last rays of sunset in the west disappeared into the forest. And a bitten moon is already hanging on the tip.

With a "snort", Li Shuangmu lit a match and lit a cigarette between his lips. After taking a puff, he said, "I have something in mind about this time. Listen to it and see if there's anything to add or correct. ”

glanced at Wang Ning, and then said, "Why don't you discuss it together?" Wang Ning said: "Everyone else is not stupid. It's okay not to mention it. Once we've talked too much, it's easy for them to figure it out. When they know that they are like me, how many people do you think will be able to be as calm as me? ”

The so-called "like me" refers to Wang Ning's short life. Although the lifespan of some people in the class is no longer enough for him to die again, the amount of lifespan has become meaningless in this world of "Journey to the West". Even if you die in "Journey to the West", you don't know if you can be resurrected. In this way, the word death will have a greater impact on the spirit, and the fear will be magnified. Thinking about it this way, Wang Ning's consideration is not unreasonable.

Yin Kuang was helpless, and then looked at Li Shuangmu.

Li Shuangmu said: "The first thing I want to mention is the name of this movie. 'Demon Suppression'! This foreshadows what we are going to do. So how to subdue demons? There are two practices in the movie, one is 'killing', such as the empty boy and the silkworm foot, and Miss Duan in the early stage. The other is to awaken the truth, goodness and beauty in the hearts of the monsters, influence the demons, and let the demons put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot, the representative figure Chen Xuanzang and his master. Their two options, and ours, are also our two options. It can be seen from the task given by the principal whether to kill the white dragon or not. So, the question is, which one do we choose? To kill, or not to kill? Of course, one thing is certain, whether to kill or not to kill, is based on our ability to subdue demons. If we are killed by a youkai, everything is empty talk. ”

Yin Kuang looked at Wang Ning and said, "Killing Little White Dragon has brought us a group of potential enemies." Rewards aside, there are a lot of negative effects. The Thirteen Taibao of Huaguo Mountain is enough for us to drink a pot, not to mention the 'shrimp soldiers and crab generals' of the West Sea Dragon Palace. Then 100 points of Buddha fate are deducted, and 10 points are added to Dao Gong. If we think about it, we will be punished more than ours. I think the headmaster probably doesn't encourage us to 'slay demons' by killing. ”

Wang Ning sneered and said, "So you're blaming me for killing the White Dragon Horse?" Yin Kuang shook his head and said, "Just talk about things." Wang Ning said: "Don't forget. At the end of 'Journey to the West', Sun Wukong was not pressed under the 'Rulai Handprint' of "The Great Ri Rulai Sutra". In my opinion, this is no different from a knife kill, or **. What awakens truth, goodness and beauty. That big mudra was a slap, and it slapped loudly on the faces of those bald monks, especially Chen Xuanzang, and his fat master. So, if I had to choose, it would be a one-shot solution. Kill a white dragon horse with 15% plot reversal. I don't know how many monks killed Sha. Or even Chen Xuanzang was slaughtered! ”

Yin Kuang said: "On the contrary. On the contrary, I think that Sun Wukong was tamed by Chen Xuanzang with Buddhism. Wang Ning smiled and said, "I won't comment on your brain." Because first of all, I think you have a problem with your eyesight. So a big mudra knocked down from the universe, isn't it violence or what? If the Dharma is really so powerful, what else do I use a knife for? Directly moved his mouth. ”

Li Shuangmu said: "No." I agree more with Yin Kuang's statement. Putting aside the rest for the time being, just say that such a huge handprint is knocked down, if that handprint is real, I don't know how many innocent people will die, and most of China's area is covered by that handprint. Buddhism has always exhorted people to be good, but how could they do such a thing when they turn around? All, the so-called 'Great Ri Nyorai Mudra' doesn't exist at all, it's just the demon in Sun Wukong's heart that is doing trouble. Chen Xuanzang's 'standing to become a Buddha' recited the "Great Day Rulai Sutra", which aroused Sun Wukong's fear of the Buddha. The so-called 'demon is born from the heart', and the Buddha is also born from the heart. The scene at the end of the film does not violate the theme of the 'Demon Suppression Chapter': to punish demons and preserve goodness. It is precisely the finishing touch of the main idea. ”

Wang Ning was stunned. When you think about it, it seems that ...... It's really as Li Shuangmu said. Movies are movies, and there must be something to act. In the last scene, Chen Xuanzang couldn't just sit there and chant the scriptures, and then Sun Wukong fell down with a shout of "ah", and then there was no more, the end of the play! If this is really the case, I am afraid that the audience will have to burn down the movie theater to vent their dissatisfaction. Therefore, the demons and Buddhas in Sun Wukong's heart were embodied and presented to the audience through special effects.

"Then what the two of you mean: let's work hard, don't hesitate to die and beat the monster down, and then don't kill it, but sit down and talk to it about life and ideals, and let him go when he says 'be a good demon'. Is that so? After being deflated, Wang Ning used this way to fight back against Yin Kuang and Li Shuangmu.

That's not a very good question to answer. If Yin Kuang and Li Shuangmu agreed, they would indirectly admit that they were fools. If you oppose it, you are slapping yourself in the face. Wang Ning really didn't miss any opportunity to hit his opponent.

Li Shuangmu took a puff of cigarette, then slowly exhaled it, and said, "If that's all it takes, then these two choices are too ordinary." He glanced at Wang Ning secretly, and said secretly: "I didn't bring him if I knew it earlier." He continued: "What I care about is that behind these two choices, there is something deeper. Yin Kuang looked at Li Shuangmu and said, "What do you mean......" Li Shuangmu nodded and said, "If that's the case, it's a big trouble." Yin Kuang was silent.

Wang Ning looked at Li Shuangmu and then at Yin Kuang, without asking, leaning on the trunk slowly, waiting for them to say it themselves.

I only heard Yin Kuang say: "The religious confrontation between the Buddha and the Tao!" ”

Wang Ning raised his eyebrows and said, "Dispute? What does this have to do with those two choices? Yin Kuang said: "After killing the white dragon horse, Tang Seng will have no horse to ride, so he will deduct 15% of the plot." Then if you kill Sha Seng, Zhu Bajie, and even Sun Wukong, I assume that without their protection, can Tang Seng still learn from the scriptures? Without retrieving the Buddhist scriptures, how could Buddhism be further spread in China? All we deducted 100 points from the Buddha's fate. ”

Li Shuangmu said: "You also saw and heard it in the city today. In addition to talking about slow demons in the streets and alleys, there are also people talking about Buddhist monks. It can be seen how low the presence of Taoism among the people is. Religion depends on its adherents. Look at a leaf and know autumn. It can be seen that the number of believers in Taoism is constantly decreasing. The number of followers of Buddhism is increasing dramatically. Obviously, this is not what those Taoist immortals in the sky want to see. ”

Yin Kuang sighed and said, "However, they are unwilling to lend a helping hand to the innocent people who have been devastated by demons. Cultivators only know that they cultivate the Tao and ascend to immortals, improve their cultivation, and then compete for the blessed land of the magic weapon, and how many of them really put the life and death of the people in their eyes. There are fewer and fewer believers who deserve them. Xianxia Xianxia, not Xianxia, not Xianxia, not three, not four. Yin Kuang sighed, and then turned into disdain.

Taoism is a truly pure local religion, but regardless of the suffering of the people, the Buddhist disciples from Tianzhu ran around, exorcised demons and subdued demons, benefited the people, and were constantly loved and believed by the people. At the beginning, when I heard Na Kuai say, "If Buddhism can really save me, I am willing to eat fasting and pray for Buddha", Yin Kuang's heart was really not good.

It doesn't matter what religion you believe in, just based on the theory of local and foreign, local people must have more affection for local things than foreign things.

Li Shuangmu said: "In "Journey to the West", Tang Seng learned scriptures and received the full support of Li Shimin. ”

Wang Ning said: "Wait! Didn't you say the controversy between Buddhism and Taoism? You only talked about the Buddha, what about the Tao? I don't see where they are fighting. Even on the way to learn the scriptures, the gods in the sky also helped Tang Seng and them. ”

Li Shuangmu smiled: "Then you count, how many of the monsters Tang Seng and they encountered 'escaped' from the heavenly court to the lower realm?" Immortals can be pinched. It's even more trivial to open a heavenly eye. Do you think they really don't know that their mounts, boys, and people are running into the world to do nonsense? The ones who really brought a mortal threat to Tang Seng were almost all 'escaping' from the lower realm from the heavenly court. ”

"Ugh." Wang Ning said, "I'm not familiar with "Journey to the West". I just want to ask, what does all this have to do with us? Could it be that the principal wants us to break up the team and let them fail to learn the scriptures? ”

Yin Kuang nodded and said, "According to Senior Chongming's description, the principal attaches great importance to 'local' and 'foreign'. For us, the Taoist priest is local, and the Buddha is outside. The so-called plot reversal is only to prevent the formation of a scripture-learning team and prevent the further expansion of Buddhism in the country. ”

Wang Ning said: "Speaking of which, which of the two roads do you choose?" ”

Li Shuangmu didn't answer, and took a leisurely puff of cigarette. Yin Kuang was also silent. After a while, Li Shuangmu said: "Originally, I thought that the scene was all made up by the principal. The people inside are also NPCs. A pile of walking meat. But then ...... I found out I was wrong. ”

"They are all living people, birth, old age, sickness and death, love and hatred, there is no shortage of everything." Yin Kuang said, "If we stop Chen Xuanzang from learning scriptures from the West, then who can be the innocent people in the world who have suffered from the scourge of demons?" ”

Wang Ning was confused.
