Chapter 38: The Truth
"Master, your house is so simple, you usually live here by yourself, don't you feel that life is very lonely and very hard?"
Yin Yi never thought that the furnishings of a room could be so simple.
A wooden bed, a low table, a tea set, and very little else.
"If there is no loneliness in the heart, it will not be saddened by it. In the same way, if there is suffering in the heart, people will suffer, and if there is no suffering in the heart, people will not suffer. ”
Jing Ming clasped his hands together and looked at Yin Yi with a light smile.
Obviously, he was really in front of her, but she just felt that his appearance was a little ethereal.
Yin Yi stuck out his tongue, not knowing how to answer.
People say that if you discuss life with monks, they will only return to you to study Buddhism and discuss the truth with monks, and they will only block you from using philosophy.
Now it seems that she is indeed challenging authority, and she is beyond her strength.
"The master has a point......
Yin Yi smiled and complimented, although this is too unprincipled, but people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads......
Who let him have her little handle......
Jing Ming smiled slightly, didn't say anything, he bent down slightly, landed on the cushion next to the low table, and then began to meditate cross-legged, he flicked his sleeves, and very gracefully reached out to add a cup of tea for Yin Yi.
Yin Yi sat down lightly across from him, not daring to make another attempt.
She actually had a lot of questions in her heart, for example, why did he know that he was from another world, why did he know that he was the little county lord of Zhennan Wangfu, why he was his senior brother even younger than Master Jingqing, why he was still a young man even though he was rumored to be more than 200 years old, and why did he live in such a secluded place to practice meditation......
These questions crawled around her heart like little ants, but she just didn't know how to open them, and she didn't dare to open them easily.
"The little lord doesn't need to be so restrained, I am a monk, and I don't care about those worldly etiquette. Just ask me your questions, and I'll answer them for you, so you don't have to worry about offending me. ”
Jing Ming looked at Yin Yi's appearance on thin ice, a little ridiculous, obviously such a timid girl, how could she dare to dance with Jing Qing like Jing Qing just now, it was really cute.
Yin Yi didn't dare to speak rashly when she heard this, it wasn't that she didn't believe him, but she didn't believe herself.
As the saying goes, if you say too much, you will lose, and she needs to think carefully about how she can ask her way home.
She wanted to go back to her 21st century.
Yin Yi picked up the tea in front of her and licked it with her tongue, she felt that it tasted good, so she tasted it with a smile.
Foodies will never forget that eating is a very important thing.
"Master, the little girl does have a question that I can't figure out, I hope you can answer it, how did you and Abbot Jingqing see that I am not from here?"
Yin Yi put down the cup, looking serious and pious, she didn't play any tricks, that would be too stupid.
Sometimes playing one's own tricks in front of the enlightened masters is tantamount to hitting a stone moth with an egg to fight a fire, there is no need, it is better to be frank and honest.
He knew the truth, and she needed to find out the truth now, the relationship between the two was clear and clear, both in the open, and there was no need to bother to say secret words.
Jing Ming looked at Yin Yi, as if he was looking through her to see another soul.
Yin Yi felt that it seemed to be another soul in her body.
The soul of Shangguan Yi who was sleeping.
Jing Ming seems to have a different emotion towards that Shangguan Yi, is it sympathy?
Still is...... Déjà vu?
Yin Yi didn't want to guess why Jing Ming knew her, why Jing Qing also knew her, she just wanted to know, why did she come and when would she be able to leave?
This is the thing she pays the most attention to, and there is no one.
"I don't know where you're coming from or where you're going. But I know Shangguan Yi's origin and destination, that is, you, your body. Back then, my master taught me the art of natal character, that is, to discern other people's souls and divinate people's lifespan. Therefore, Jing Qing and I can use numerology techniques, and if he can see through your soul at a glance, I can naturally do it too. It's just that these are forbidden techniques such as psychic illusions, and they are not known to the outside world. The master has also repeatedly said, let us not show the outside easily. Of course, sometimes in order to save lives and help the wounded, they can't care about so much. Actually, it's not the first time you and I have met, but you shouldn't remember it now, right, how can you remember, you're no longer you, but I'm stupid...... The first time we met, I thought there was some fate. That was sixteen years ago, when you were born...... On that day, it coincided with the once-in-a-lifetime spectacle of meteor showers, and you were suddenly born and cried. Your parents thought it was a sign of good fortune, so they brought you here to see me, hoping for peace and protection. The first time I saw you, you were asleep in your swaddling clothes, your eyelashes trembling slightly, your cheeks reddening, and you were very lovely. But at that time, I found that your lifeline is really strange, I can only see your lifeline beating before the age of sixteen, but I can't see through the lifeline after the age of sixteen, and the lifeline of ordinary people will either be in a bright red beating state for the rest of your life, or it will be black and withered when you die. But your lifeline after the age of sixteen has not withered, but has disappeared, or more like hidden. I didn't know the mystery at the time, so I told your parents to take good care of you and let them bring you back when you were sixteen. After your parents came down from the mountain, I went to look through the codex left by the Master, and it was then that I realized that you were a reborn body that was rare in a century. ”
Jing Ming paused, and then looked at Yin Yi deeply, but Yin Yi knew that he was not looking at her.
"After I knew, when you were three years old, I went down the mountain to Zhennan Wangfu to look for you, and wanted to take you to the mountain to practice, to appease the elimination factors of the reborn body, so as to prolong your life and keep you safe for half a lifetime. It's a pity that year, I didn't notify the Zhennan Mansion in advance, so you went to Kyoto with your parents first, and I was in vain. So I stayed in the palace and waited quietly for you to return. But when your parents returned, I learned that you were loved by Your Majesty and ordered to stay in Kyoto for three years. At that time, due to physical reasons, I did not have the strength to go south to look for you, and because I could not determine your fate, I did not tell your parents the truth. So, that year, I missed the best opportunity to survive your catastrophe. And you, your life has been able to operate normally because of this, and the sixteen-year period of death cannot be changed, and I can only watch you walk towards your end, but there is no way. Because of what I missed back then, I regretted it for decades, and I still can't forgive myself. So, I have been cultivating hard all these years, just to be able to find a way to save you before the deadline comes. Of course, it doesn't end there, everything goes on......"
Jing Ming looked at Yin Yi, she knew that he was talking to Shangguan Yi.
"Just three months ago, you came to see me once, and because of many years of regret, I could not bear to die like this, so I decided to give it a go and try to make a final effort for you. You were in a period of discouragement, physical and mental emaciation, and your will to survive was not strong. But I still want to help you and keep you alive. I wanted to use the secret techniques of Buddhism to prolong your life, but in fact, I did, but it turned out to be ...... But it's not ideal. At that time, no one knew what would happen to the body when the reborn body died, and no one knew if the soul would be unsustainable if the soul continued to live. I didn't know the answers to these questions at the time, because I was so focused on saving you that I didn't care so much. At that time, there was no detailed record in the historical books I found, so I always thought that what I knew was the truth...... I can't bear to see you suffer from samsara, so I go against the heavens, but even if I go against the heavens, my fate will still be in vain......"
Jing Ming lowered his eyebrows, he couldn't see his expression clearly, what he did, he didn't seem to want to reveal too much.
"So, I came here from the 21st century and crossed over to this body, is it because your secret technique failed?"
Yin Yi listened very carefully, this mirror really has the ability to defy the sky!
However, since she is against the sky, why did she still cross over?
"No, my secretary didn't fail!"
Jing Ming glanced out the window, his expression seemed to be extremely complicated, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head again, looking very distressed with a frustrated face.
"The way to save you is a Buddhist secret technique, so naturally it also has its taboos and drawbacks. At that time, I specifically told you not to put yourself in danger, let alone die. Otherwise, your soul will be wiped out, and there will be no possibility of returning to your body in this life. And if your body has not been damaged by external forces, your soul will always be in this body, and you will not be invaded by another soul for the rest of your life, and you can live well and break the sixteen years of imprisonment. However, now it seems that this secret technique has been cracked by external forces. Other words...... You are no longer you, the real you, dead...... I should have known that in this world, some things are destined to happen, and it is bound to happen. I shouldn't try to go against the sky with my own strength, and in the end I hurt others and myself, I can't help but harm your Qingqing's life, and I also ruined my hundred-year cultivation ......"
Jing Ming sighed deeply, he stroked his violently vibrating chest with his hand, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was enduring some kind of pain, and seemed to regret not being at the beginning.
"Can't die unexpectedly? That is to say...... By...... Killed? ”
Yin Yi curled up for a moment, although she guessed that it might be the reason, but now that it was directly confirmed, she still felt a little creepy.
Such a beautiful little county lord, how could those murderers be able to do it?
"Amitabha! It's all sin, sin! ”
Jing Ming clasped his hands together and began to recite the secret of purifying his heart in his heart, he felt that all the evil causes were caused by him, and all the changes were indirectly caused by him, but he didn't know how to end it, he was really a little difficult.
"Master Jingming, I, can I still go back? Can I go back to minecraft? ”
What Yin Yi wants to know most is the answer to this question, and she can not care about anything else.
"How do you want me to answer such a question? Forgive me for being stupid and not knowing the answer to this question. ”
Jing Ming frowned, his expression was very distressed, it seemed that Yin Yi had given him a great problem.
"After divination to your body has changed, I can't feel at ease, and I have searched for ancient books here many times, I thought it was a problem with the secret art, so that the imprisonment became invalid, but later I found out that it was not that my method of saving you was useless, but that the theorem of calamity was not something I could break by brute force. Half a month ago, I was fortunate enough to find a famous ancient book, which recorded some supernatural things, which were somewhat different from what I knew before, and then I realized that the record of the reborn body left in the Master's Codex was incomplete and not true. It is recorded in the book that the body of rebirth is not the nature of Taoism, but a kind of calamity, or rather, its appearance is not a change of one person, but a change that will affect the entire era. Famous scholars assert that the so-called reborn body is a thousand years of bizarre, which cannot be reversed by internal forces, but can change its life due to the ferocity of external forces. If it is struck by an external force, the soul will leave the body, the host will be replaced, and the life will not stop, and the replacement will be endless, until the life element is exhausted, and the soul is empty, then it will be silent. However, if the reborn body meets its destined person, that is, the host terminator, then the two spirits merge and the soul stays together, and if the life is well, it will always be maintained. ”
