Chapter 185: Taskmaster
"Isn't that right?" The elders of the foundation building period questioned: "I have also ventured to fly to the sky to observe, and from the birthday star, it is clear that the sun, moon and stars are revolving around our birthday star.... The birthday star is the center of the entire universe, how can it be that the birthday star revolves around the sun? ”
"Huh,"
In the main hall.
Before Su could explain to the elder, the monkey sneered and mocked: "You juniors, if you have carefully observed the sun, moon and stars, and even made an image to record it, it is not difficult to find that all stars do revolve around the sun, and the only star in the universe that does not move is the sun."
Although the monks of Pure Land Temple spend most of their energy on Buddhism.
But there are also a small number of monks, who will be involved in astronomy, geography, arithmetic and other miscellaneous studies.
As soon as the monkey put forward the 'revolution theory', a junior in the Qi refining period echoed: "The trajectory of the sun, moon and stars, the younger generation has also recorded it carefully for a period of time on a whim, and the result is indeed as Wukong's predecessor said!"
First, there was a monkey to confirm the 'revolution theory', and then, there was the Buddha cultivation in the Qi refining period from the side.
At this time, no one in the palace questioned what Su Xing said.
Elder Mu De asked, "The monk suddenly talked about the movement of the sun, moon and stars, I don't know what it has to do with the 'wind blowing and moving'?"
"Let's just keep talking."
After Su Xing answered, he smiled at the monkey: "Brother Monkey, in fact, what you just said is not accurate.... It is true that the sun, moon and stars revolve around the sun, but the sun is not stationary, it also revolves around certain things. ”
"Really?"
Seeing that Su Xing knew such a secret thing, the monkey, who was originally lazy and lazy, suddenly came to his senses.
Seeing that Su Xing's tone didn't seem to be fake, he asked, "Then tell me what the sun revolves around."
"Milky Way."
Su Xingdao: "If the planets revolving around the sun are collectively called the solar system.... Then the countless solar systems that revolve around the Milky Way can be collectively called the Milky Way. ”
The monkey wondered, "Then what is the Milky Way you are talking about?" A river? ”
"No one can say exactly what the Milky Way is, because it's so far away."
Su Xingdao: "From the birthday star to the Milky Way, even if you are ten times stronger than Brother Monkey, from now on to fly in that direction, it is impossible to reach the destination until you die of old age.... Not even half the way, not even a third of the way. ”
The monkey thought for a moment, and then nodded after a long time: "Yes, if the universe is so big, we are just a drop in the ocean, and then who can say clearly about the center of the galaxy..."
"It's too far away."
Su Xing looked around at the monks and returned to the topic: "Since the birthday star where we are is revolving around the sun, do you know why we can't feel that the birthday star is turning?"
"This...."
Su Xing's voice fell, and all the monks, lay disciples, and even the abbot of Mude present didn't know how to answer.
After a long time, Su Xing inspired: "Everyone, when you ride the carriage, when you sit in the carriage, can you feel that the carriage is moving forward?"
"I see."
Abbot Mude's face showed a sudden expression, and said: "If we sit in the carriage, we can't feel the carriage moving.... So in the same way, we naturally don't feel that the birthday star is moving. ”
Su Xing said again: "So, what if you fly up on the carriage and hang in mid-air?"
Mu De pondered for a moment, revealing a look of shock: "In this way, I don't move, and the carriage moves.... That way, even when I'm in the carriage, I can feel the carriage moving! ”
"Yes."
Su Xing nodded and smiled: "So, movement is always relative, and the passengers sitting in the carriage are stationary for the carriage.... And the person suspended in mid-air, for the carriage, the carriage is in motion. ”
"Amitabha!"
After Mu De pronounced the Buddha's name, he asked, "According to the meaning of the monk, how should this 'wind blow and move' be explained?"
Su Xing said: "As far as I am concerned, if I sit cross-legged and still in place, then the wind moves forward, and the wind banner shakes on the flagpole.... And if I follow the direction of the wind, then the wind is still to me. ”
Speaking of this, Su Xing showed a sarcastic expression: "So, things are not as you said, if everyone's heart does not move, the wind banner will not move.... You are not the people who have the means to penetrate the heavens and the earth, and can you still rely on your consciousness to control the movement of the wind and the wind flags? ”
The so-called word wakes up the person in the dream.
In the main hall.
After listening to Su Xing's theory of 'relativity of motion', a few monks such as Xuanzang and Mude sat cross-legged and muttered to themselves as if they had just woken up from a big dream.
"Motion is relative, so everything can be relative.... Although the foundation building period monks are powerful, they are only compared to mortals and Qi cultivation period monks, and if they are compared to the Jindan stage monks, then the foundation building period monks can only be regarded as weak. ”
Mu De sat cross-legged on the ground, and his momentum continued to rise.
Suddenly, the ground surged with golden lotus, and there was a burst of Sanskrit sound in the entire hall.
A monk said incredulously: "Unbelievable, unbelievable! I look at the momentum of Abbot Mude, it seems that he has an epiphany directly! It seems that it is going to break through to the Jindan period!
”
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
It is not a trivial matter for a monk in the foundation building period to break through to the Jindan stage.
As soon as these words came out, the monks in the entire hall were in an uproar.
And the monkey, as a great power, added: "Strictly speaking, Mude can only be regarded as having obtained the key to open the door of the Jindan period, and it cannot be regarded as a breakthrough.... In order to truly break through, you need to collect enough 'black threads'. ”
Although Mude's situation at this time is indeed as the monkey said, it is not a real breakthrough.
But once he had an epiphany and got the golden pill spoon, he could already make countless foundation building period monks out of reach.
- After all, the epiphany is too much of a matter of chance, and its difficulty is far greater than collecting the 'black silk thread'.
Just imagine, there are more than ten elders in the foundation building period in the entire Pure Land Temple, but none of them can break through to the Jindan stage, you can see how difficult it is to have an epiphany.
In the main hall, Mu De was the only one in the midst of a breakthrough.
Some of the Qi cultivation disciples present also had an epiphany on the spot because of Su Xing's words, and successfully broke through to the early stage of foundation building.
At this moment, when the monks looked at Su Xing again, their expressions were no longer just in awe as before, and they were even a little unconvinced.
In the birthday star that respects strength, those who can make people have an epiphany and break through with a word are god-like existences.
And when the monks looked at Su Xing, they also regarded him as a living Buddha.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a sage and a saint with great wisdom.
…
Gao Cheng, Gao Fu.
In the boudoir of Gao Lan, the eldest lady of the Gao family.
At this moment.
Gao Lan, the eldest lady of the Gao family, was kneeling on the ground, looking at the naked man in front of her, and said coquettishly: "Master, why did you suddenly become so brave today?"
"Ugh."
The man took a deep breath and sighed, "It's not that you're about to get married, so I'm quite reluctant."
Gao Lan didn't answer, just touched his belly, and said, "Master, we haven't taken any precautions this time, if we are pregnant with your child, wouldn't it be the son of the Zhu family..."
The man laughed, "Don't you let him know?" He married you such a beautiful and knowledgeable wife, and gave away a fat boy for nothing, and he met all the good things in the world, what else is there to be dissatisfied with? ”
"The master is right."
Gao Lan smiled: "Then when will the master take over the Zhu family's property?" You can't let me stay in the Zhu family all the time, right? ”
"Don't worry, when I've had enough, I feel it's time, and I'll naturally do it.... You just have to be your Mrs. Zhu family, this is the task! ”
"Yes!"
