Shi An listened ignorantly, knowing that the Dharma was profound, and it was difficult for him to understand it for a while, so he no longer dwelled on this issue.

He then asked another question: "Buddhism is the right way, emphasizing the reward of good and punishment of evil, so how does Buddhism distinguish between good and evil?"

"The donor still has too many misunderstandings about Buddhism, Buddhism pays attention to the equality of all beings, and there is no theory of rewarding good and punishing evil. ”

"Doesn't that mean that Buddhism doesn't distinguish between good and evil?"

"It's not, it's just that the good and evil that Buddhism says are different from the good and evil in the eyes of the world, so I'll tell you about the good and evil in the eyes of the world first. In fact, the good and evil in the eyes of the world are relative, and the criterion for distinguishing between them is the gain and loss of bitterness in their eyes. Actions that are in line with one's own happiness and gain are good deeds, and actions that cause one's own suffering and loss are evil deeds. Of course, there are also so-called chivalrous and righteous people, who do not do things for personal happiness and gain, but for the people who they think should have happiness and gain. "Speaking of which, let's just take a bite and leave some time for Shi An to think.

"The great monk is right, just like when I meet a hungry person on the road, I pity his hunger, and I will fill his stomach by hunting and killing demon beasts, for this person, what I do is a good deed, and for the slain demon beast is an evil deed; on the other hand, if a demon beast eats me in order to raise its offspring, it is a good deed for its offspring, and for me it is an evil deed. ”

He continued: "Thinking about the original sect master Yuan Daozi of the Four Elephants, killing the disciples of the sect and disturbing the order of the sect is indeed an evil deed for the majority of disciples, but for the Wei family, it is a great good deed, and we want to get rid of him for the benefit of the majority of the people in the Four Elephants, which is a good deed that we recognize, and the Wei family will lose the interests of the family because of him, but for them it is a great evil deed for us to get rid of him." Therefore, the so-called distinction between good and evil is all due to personal happiness and loss, and I understand this. ”

Jing nodded and said, "It seems that the donor still has a wisdom root." Let me tell you how Buddhism views this good and evil being. Buddhism emphasizes the four Dharma seals, which can be regarded as the difference between Buddhism and other methods, namely the impermanence of all actions, the absence of self in all laws, the suffering of all suffering, and the silence of Nirvana. The root of the distinction between good and evil in the eyes of the world lies in the existence of 'me', and when 'I' am there, there will be all kinds of feelings and needs, just like if you feel hungry, you need food, and if you are cold, you need clothes, so there is a difference between gain and loss, because you like to gain and dislike to lose, which is why there are all kinds of entanglements of interests, which is the so-called standard of good and evil in the world. If there is no 'me', there is no good or evil. ”

After seeing Shi An nodding slightly to indicate that he had understood, Jingyi continued: "Then what is 'me'? 'I' is autonomous, that is, what I can control and dominate, and what I can't control and dominate is not 'me'. So, is the body 'me', and if so, what part of the body is 'me', are the limbs? When you analyze one organ at a time, you will find that as long as I live, 'I' exists, in other words, there is no 'me' in the body. ”

"Besides, can you control the body? When your fingers touch the fire, they will involuntarily retract, can you control it? If you drink too much water, you want to urinate, can you control it? These are instincts, they are not controlled by the 'me', so there is no 'me' in the body. Is 'me' outside the body? What's more, things outside the body can't be controlled, so how can it be 'me'?"

This part of the content is more profound, Jingyi waited for a long time, and after Shi An nodded again in agreement, he said: "Since 'I' is not a physical body, can it be a mind? Donor, you must know that the mind can be divided into the previous thought, the later thought, and the present thought. The mind of the previous thought is extinguished at the moment, can 'I' still dominate the previous thought? No, just like you can't control the mind of the next moment, so 'I' is not the previous thought. If the mind of the afterthought has not yet arisen, then it must not be able to dominate the present thought, so 'I' is not the afterthought. And the current heart is born and dies in an instant, and you can't be the master, so 'I' is not the current heart. ”

"There is no 'me' in the body, there is no 'me' outside the body, and even the mind in the middle is not 'me', so 'me' does not exist, and this is the so-called dharma without self. Since there is no 'me', there is no 'me' gain or loss, there is no 'me' benefit, and there is no so-called good and evil in the world. ”

Shi An knew that the teachings of Buddhism were extremely profound, and he pondered carefully for a long time, and felt that what he said was very reasonable, but there were still many questions that he didn't know where to start, and he was even more confused in his heart.

Suddenly, he remembered a few questions that Zheng Yan asked himself that day but he couldn't answer, so he asked again: "If you are hungry and have no food, will you feed on other demon beasts?"

"If it is the so-called three pure meat, that is, the meat that is not killed out of sight, deaf to the ear, and not killed for oneself, the people of Buddhism can eat it, but if it is specially hunted and obtained, it is absolutely unacceptable. Buddhism emphasizes the equality of all beings, and beasts are also sentient beings, so why can people forcibly take their lives? However, you are a worldly person, and there is nothing wrong with doing so, because it is just nature. ”

"On the other hand, if the monster is hungry and wants to feed on you, will you resist?"

"It is the instinct of all beings to know life and avoid death, so it is natural to resist, but it will not harm their lives. ”

"If your life had to come at the expense of the life of the monster, would you do it?"

"Absolutely not. ”

"If others need your life to save more people, will you fight to the end, or will you kill yourself?" Shi An threw out the last question, which was also the most perplexing question for him.

Just as Jingyi was about to answer, a thunderous roar suddenly came from the sky above the Twin Towers, "Shi Yizhi, I know you're here, come out for me, otherwise I'm going to slaughter the city!"

Shi An was shocked when he heard it, this was Yuan Daozi's voice.

How did he come to the Twin Towers City now, this was a big surprise to him.

To go or not to go? Shi Anxin quickly calculated. Go, it is estimated that there is only one death, that day after seeing Zhu Liang's power of destroying Zijun Mountain half of the power with a single blow without any sanity, Shi An deeply knew that ten of his own spiritual qi tied together was not enough for the power of one punch;

After thinking about it, Yuan Daozi shouted again: "I'll give you ten breaths of time to come out, otherwise Hugh will blame me for being rude!"

"One breath!"

"Two breaths!"

Shi An couldn't sit still any longer, he hurriedly said to Jingyi: "Master, if there is a coming day, I will ask you for advice, and now I am going out." ”

After speaking, he ran out of the main hall without waiting for Jingyi to answer. Seeing that there were no others in the courtyard, he jumped directly into the cave stone.

This move was not for him to escape, but to take Zhu Liang out to resist Yuan Daozi with him. He didn't dare to count on asking Jingyi to help in the war, especially after hearing what he said about the Buddhist concept of good and evil, and now he has understood that in the eyes of Buddhism, the fight between him and Yuan Daozi has nothing to do with good and evil, but just a conflict of interests.

Seeing Shi An come in, Zhu Liang only glanced at him, but did not answer, still using his mind on the few pages of paper that Shi An copied for him.

Shi An snatched the pages, and without waiting for Zhu Liang to show his anger, he said, "Zhu Liang, there is a great enemy outside now, and you and I need to resist together." After thinking for a while, he handed Zhu Liang's magic weapon bracelet to him and said, "This is your magic weapon, it may be used for a while, and I still need a few of your magic weapons, so I will temporarily put it in my hand, and then I will return it to you." Also, if I die unfortunate for a while, before I die, I will send this Divine Consciousness Ball into your Consciousness Sea, and your memory will be restored, and everything will be understood. After speaking, without waiting for Zhu Liangliang to react, he dragged him out of the cave.

"Eight breaths. Yuan Daozi was still counting down loudly.

"Yuan Daozi, I'm here, come here!" Shi An and Zhu Liang shouted after jumping directly onto the roof of the main hall.

"Are you really here, hurry up and return my Wei family!" Yuan Daozi said as he flew towards here.

"The people of the Wei family are not taken by me, why don't you go to the Four Elephants Temple to find someone to find me?"

"Huangkou Xiaoer, I know that today's scene was all choreographed by you, take you and then go to the Four Elephants, I don't think that Yuan Miao will disagree with the exchange with the Wei family. Yuan Daozi said gloomily.

Shi An then understood why Yuan Daozi didn't go to the Four Elephants Temple and came directly to find him, and was about to answer, but he heard Yuan Daozi's surprised voice again, "Zhu Liang! You really mixed up with this kid, saying, did he exchange that secret method for your help? You just happened to be here, I will capture you two together and have everything, hahaha!"

Zhu Liang didn't understand what was happening in front of him, and asked Shi An innocently: "Brother, who is this old man, why is he so fierce?"

Shi An was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.

Yuan Daozi was also stunned, and then laughed: "Brother, Shi Yizhi, what kind of evil art did you use to make him call you brother? It seems that you still have a big secret, give it to me, hahahaha." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, you can make a move!" Shi An said, while sacrificing the twin swords, he secretly controlled the thirty-six flying needles and the dagger with his divine sense, and quietly placed them behind him, only waiting for the other party to make a sneak attack when he was not paying attention.
