Under Zhang Sleeve's arrangement, Lin Zihan soon met the Zhikong master the next day.
After seeing each other, she understood why with her friend's talent and character, she would be unable to extricate herself from a man.
Zhong Liu Shenxiu, this is her first impression when she sees this man. One can imagine how it would feel to know his sleeves for several years.
For a moment, she had a feeling that this man was too far away from them.
This distance is not distant, but spiritual.
The eyebrows are elegant, but there is a depression that cannot be hidden, she can faintly feel this, but she doesn't know what will make this man have such a feeling.
The other party has not completely shaved the degree, and it is short, it seems that he is with practice, but he can be called a master, and his Buddhist cultivation should be no less than those monks who have been shaved for many years.
"Donor, if there is nothing to do, go back, the world is like water, it is difficult to keep, it is better not to waste time"
When Lin Zihan heard this, he woke up, got rid of the shock of the first meeting, and barely settled down.
"I'm sorry, Master. I have something to ask, and I hope the master will not refuse."
"Donor, please speak," Zhikong gestured.
"I don't know much about Buddhism, but I'm just very curious, why would a person like a master escape into the void and indulge in Buddhism? Could it be that the green lantern is withered, and it really has so much charm? Lin Zihan didn't ask for Ling Chen's help at the beginning, she wanted to try to see if she could convince the other party on her own.
"What is addiction, but to seek a piece of the heart of the pure place, the green lamp withered, in my heart, is better than the light of wine and green a hundred times"
"The master is so young, presumably his family is still alive, so what about them? As a son of man, if he cannot serve his knees, how can he be called a man? With the compassion of the Buddha, there must be no separation between flesh and blood" Before Lin Zihan came, of course, he asked Zhang Sleeve, knowing that she, a senior, had both parents and did not have any major family changes.
"Before I entered here, I had already arranged a number of things, and all the things I needed were arranged, and the materials that mortal men could honor were already a hundred times greater. As for serving the knees, if you always think of your parents in your heart, you will be able to fulfill your filial piety, otherwise you will see each other every day and insult each other at every turn, which is not filial piety. If you have filial piety in your heart, why should you always be under your knees. Zhikong's face was calm, and he was not moved by this question.
When Lin Zihan heard this, he also knew that it was difficult to refute the other party from this aspect, especially in modern society, too many children and parents are separated, and even leave their nearly 8o old mother at home alone, and when they are outside, the word filial piety is no longer as binding as in the past.
"Isn't it against humanity for the master to enter the empty door and cut off the heirs?"
"How can the heirs be cut off, I have already donated my essence and blood to be left for fate"
The words almost made Lin Zihan roll her eyes, she didn't expect the other party to be so thoughtful. Just a few questions, she still used secular traditions to embarrass the other party, trying to make the other party's ordination untenable from the perspective of traditional morality. But apparently, the other party did not reply to her with the empty words of Buddhism, but also used secular standards to repay her.
"Master, I have some things, go out for a few minutes first, please wait for a while" Lin Zihan knew that he was powerless, so he could only go to move the rescuers.
……………………
Ling Chen passed the mobile phone network and saw Lin Zihan's paraphrase, he didn't say a word, this Lin Zihan didn't know his original intention of becoming a monk at that time, how could it be possible to use those questions to embarrass him, and it was destined to be impossible to succeed.
"You just need to say two words," Ling Chen said to her.
"What two words?" Lin Zihan was very curious, what words have such a strong power that can pull a wise person who has escaped into the empty door back to the world.
"Afraid of death"
……………………
After Lin Zihan said the two words that Ling Chen had taught her in front of the Zhikong monk, she felt that the atmosphere in the quiet room had changed.
Monk Zhikong, who had always maintained a calm face, changed a few times, and his eyebrows were also wrinkled.
At that moment, Lin Zihan seemed to see a tiger waking up, but it quickly fell silent.
"Donor, please go back," Zhikong directly ordered the eviction.
Lin Zihan stood up and didn't say anything, until he was about to walk to the door, he turned his head and said, "It's right, it looks like a high-ranking monk, but in fact it's just a poor worm who is afraid of death, because he is afraid of growing old in the years, so he chose the Buddha to rely on his soul to anesthetize himself, once a genius, once a famous figure, now he can only rely on the old scriptures to cover up the aging of the soul, okay, I'll go, no one will affect the master's meditation in the future, Master, just accompany your Buddha to fantasize about the afterlife."
"Stop" Lin Zihan only felt that there seemed to be thunder ringing in her ears, and the whole person was almost stunned, she looked at Monk Zhikong, the other party's eyes widened angrily, and she only felt that the tiger lurking on the other party was completely awakened for a while.
Just like a tiger lying in the wilderness, lurking minions to endure, Lin Zihan felt the change in the momentum on the other party's body, and just thought of this sentence, he saw Monk Zhikong stand up fiercely and point at her with an index finger.
"What do you know, woman? It's just a child who doesn't know the world, I don't know that there is a great terror between life and death, I read a few books, I see some things, I feel that the truth is in my chest, I feel that I can comment on history wantonly, criticize celebrities, and be extremely naïve."
"What qualifications do you have, what accomplishments do you have, to come here and teach me? When you were struggling with the sea of topics, I was already reading the world's most cutting-edge papers; When you are tossing and turning for a college entrance examination, I can choose the most famous schools and research institutions in the world; I was 2o years old when I published world-class biology papers, Newton, Einstein, these great scientists, the IQ will not be higher than mine, and my future achievements, I will not be lower than them"
Lin Zihan listened to the other party's arrogant words, but they made her feel taken for granted, and stayed there for a while, at a loss. However, the other party did not stop, and the roar became louder.
"But, but, so what? No matter how much I have ten times my intelligence, I still have to be like you stupid guys, destroyed by the years, Shaohuabai, I can't escape! What does it have to do with me to keep the so-called fame and the so-called spirit to be recited? I can't perceive it, I can't see it, and what does it mean to me? ”
Lin Zihan understood why he felt at the beginning that the other party and himself were not like people of the same world.
She was a little frightened, but fortunately, it didn't take long for the other party's violent feelings to calm down.
"Amitabha, the poor monk's cultivation has not yet reached home, and he has committed the precept of resentment, sorry, donor, I frightened you," Monk Zhikong recovered to a calm face, put his palms together, and said a Buddha name.
Lin Zihan was indeed frightened, but she could still say something.
"However, if you don't work hard, just escape into the empty door, how can you know that with the current level of science and technology, there is no way to live forever" Of course, Lin Zihan knew the difficulties of immortality, but he still said this, since the other party still has obsessions, there is hope for persuasion after all.
"Donor, how do you know that the poor monk has not made efforts before, and the reason why the poor monk chose to escape into the empty door is precisely because of the results after trying to seek in this world," Zhikong replied.
"Do you think that with the current technology, there is no way to achieve immortality?" Lin Zihan subconsciously thought that the other party chose to escape into the empty door after despairing to find the method of immortality.
"Yes," the result was beyond Lin Zihan's expectations, and the other party actually gave an unexpected answer.
"But it will take at least 100 years before the application, so I have to try to live until that time, otherwise why would I choose to study biology instead of computer science, which is more suitable for me, when I was a double Olympiad champion in physics and chemistry. It's very simple, because when I was determining the direction, I checked the statistics, among the Nobel Prize-winning scientists, 4o% of chemists have a lifespan between 6o~69 years, and the proportion of people less than 7o years old is as high as about 55%; Among the winners of the Physiology and Medicine Award, 18.6% were over 9o years old, and nearly 4o were over 8o years old. The 3 award-winning chemists over the age of 9o are all biochemists. Physicists live somewhere in between, which is why I chose biology."
The answer given by Zhikong made Lin Zihan feel helpless, and he also felt that according to the other party's previous answer, such a choice was taken for granted.
"Then why don't you continue to choose to study creatures, but escape into the empty door to become a monk? Is it also because the monk has a longer lifespan? Lin Zihan followed the other party's train of thought and gave an answer by himself.
"You're still a little smart, of course I don't believe in those Buddhist classics, although they have some philosophical significance, but for me, it's nothing, but many of the precepts of Buddhism are the way to longevity, and they are one of the very few places that can force me to persist for a long time, screen up external interference, and wait for external technological progress with peace of mind."
"But many people who are not monks can live a long life, such as those people in longevity villages, they are not monks, they are not the same longevity, you can go to those places to live and live in seclusion," Lin Zihan said.
Zhikong just smiled at Lin Zihan's words and did not answer again.
