"This little master, you won't be from Yin, ah no, Tianzhu, right?"

"This benefactor, the poor monk is indeed from Tianzhu."

"Then do you have a Bodhisattva named Avalokiteshvara?"

Wu Nian was a little puzzled by Wu Yuandao's words, but still replied, "I'm sorry, we don't have the Bodhisattva named Guanyin you mentioned. Wu Yuandao sighed a little disappointed after hearing this, he didn't expect that even Guanyin's supreme existence had never appeared in this world, it seemed that this world was completely different from the previous life, and even the system of those immortals, gods, Buddhas and demons was completely different.

"Little master, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Wu Yuandao, this is my uncle, Jiang Xiaolou." After Jiang Xiaolou listened, he rolled his eyes and Wu Yuan said, if this person is not clear, you will introduce it indiscriminately?

"Poor monks have no thoughts, Tianzhu monks."

"Little master, what kind of errand did you come to Daliang this time?"

"Poor monks come to Daliang to promote Buddhism."

"Little Master Wunian ......"

"It's good to call me thoughtless."

"Uh...... Well, Wunian, can there be any benefit to believing in your Buddhism? As soon as these words came out, Jiang Xiaolou spit out the tea that had just been drunk in his mouth, covering his mouth and trying not to let himself laugh, this kid is really a talent, ask if there is any benefit in front of a monk, there is really you, but Jiang Xiaolou also wants to hear how Wu Nian will answer this somewhat rude question.

But Wu Nian's face did not show the anger that Jiang Xiaolou expected, but said with a smile, "This is the purpose of my coming to Daliang." ”

This time it was Wu Yuandao's turn to be embarrassed, what does this mean? No matter how you hear it, it sounds like you're scolding yourself for being a mercenary villain, "Master Wunian, are you ridiculing me?" ”

"No, little donor, you misunderstood, people have a desire to be a person, and a person who has no desire is not a person."

Jiang Xiaolou was intrigued by Wunian's words, so he also joined the conversation, "Then Wunian little master, are you or not?" ”

"I am."

Jiang Xiaolou then asked, "Then what are you talking about as the ancestor?" ”

"Yes."

At this moment, Jiang Xiaolou stood up and looked at Wu Nian with a smile on his face, "Since you are a human being, the ancestor is also a human being, and if you cultivate a human being, you can also cultivate without cultivation, so what is the point of cultivating Buddha or not?" ”

"Jiang Shizhu is really eloquent, but for poor monks, the Buddha lies in knowing people's hearts, understanding people's will, avoiding the evil of human nature, and following the goodness of human nature. No one is born divine, a Buddha is also born from a human being, but he has done so that he does not fall into the deaf of his ears because of his desires, and I am not talking about a specific person, but a supreme ideal, as far as I am concerned, the Buddha is like this. ”

Wu Yuandao looked at the Wu Nian in front of him and thought of those religions in his previous life, were their original intentions bad? Of course not. They gave hope to many people and enabled them to have a belief in life, but why did later religions become so corrupt without exception? Isn't it because of the lust for profit that Wu Nian said? Wu Yuandao hates idealists, but he doesn't hate pure idealists. Impure idealists refer to those who claim to be idealists because of unsatisfactory reality, they do not want to enter reality but because they cannot benefit from reality, if they can get benefits, then they will call themselves realists, to criticize those idealists, this is like a loophole in the mechanism, if you can't benefit from it, then it is wrong, it should not exist, and when you can benefit from it, he is right, it should exist.

And pure idealists refer to those who can give everything for the ideal, but the ideal here refers to the lofty ideal, if the ideal is very low or can be achieved, it is called the goal, those pure idealists struggle for a seemingly impossible ideal, pay, even if they fail many times, they still have no hesitation, they often make people unable to see through, because according to the logic of normal people, it is not worth doing if something cannot be profitable, although such people are a little "stupid" But this is also the reason why Wu Yuandao admires them, because they can not pay for interests, but only for the so-called ideals.

Returning to the words of Wu Nian, these words are nothing more than the abandonment of the evil of human nature, but who can do it? The evil of human nature, the good are hypocritical, this sentence means that people are born evil, and goodness is an acquired disguise, Wu Yuandao deeply agrees with this sentence said by the sage Xunzi in the previous life, because if human nature is good, why are there so many juvenile criminals? Ask yourself, didn't you have any evil thoughts when you were a child? Isn't it a sign of greed for children who continue to steal without being blamed for stealing from others, or who do not change after being persuaded to do so, and who know how to get more and better things for themselves? Many thoughts are born with us, and if there is no law to bind man, he is no different from a wild beast.

Wu Yuandao bowed deeply towards Wu Nian, and said solemnly, "Wu Nian, I admire your words just now, and I hope you can stick to your heart so that more people can be good." ”

Wu Nian also folded his hands and saluted, "The poor monk will definitely live up to Lord Wu's expectations." ”

After that, the two discussed a lot of views on the concept, and Wu Yuandao and Wunian also talked more and more speculatively, and they forgot the time for a while. Jiang Xiaolou on the side looked at these two half-grown children, who were almost the same, he knew that what the two of them said at this time was from the bottom of their hearts, obviously the two of them were very different in identity and realm, but they could be like old friends for many years, and the greatest joy in the world was to know one or two confidants.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for dinner, and the two realized that the sun outside the window had set, so they had to stop talking, Jiang Xiaolou felt that he was not a bad person after observing Wunian for so long, so he helped Wunian arrange a guest room on the side, anyway, the money is carried by a big gold tooth, and this can also make Wu Yuandao not so boring on weekdays, after all, he is still a child, and he can't stay with an uncle like himself who is not confused all day long. As for the spies next door who had already left after the lockdown ended, it seems that eighty percent of them were sent by the city to monitor their foreign monks, and they gave up when they saw that there was no situation.

......

Zhongdu.

Meng Zhang returned to Zhongdu and went to Guantian Pavilion after explaining his errand, he wanted to hear how Shizun would reply to him, "Shizun, I ask to see you." ”

"I already know about Xuancheng."

"Do you know who I saw in Xuancheng?"

"Who?"

"Extreme Heaven Sword Sect, Cao Huayan."

"Alas~ I didn't expect him to hide in Xuancheng, what happened to him now?" The man in the cabinet showed a rare hint of sentimentality.

"He died two hundred years ago."

There was a silence in the cabinet for a while, and then a voice came out that was as unwavering as a peaceful day, "Then why did you come here today?" ”

"Master, where are the immortals?" Meng Zhang didn't beat around the bush and asked directly about the immortals.

"Immortals are above the Nine Heavens." After hearing this, Meng Zhang understood that Shizun was acknowledging the existence of immortals, and as Cao Huayan said, the immortals were really in the sky, but the next words made Meng Zhang even more shocked, "Immortals are under the Nine Springs. "What?! Under the Nine Springs? But soon he remembered what Cao Huayan had said about the Qiankun Realm, and suddenly Meng Zhang felt a surge of anger in his heart, what about that person? What are the people of this world? Do you count the playthings they watch when they are bored?

Meng Zhang said with rare anger, "Are we playthings? ”

The man in the cabinet did not answer.

Meng Zhang didn't say anything, turned to leave, and after he left, a long sigh came from the cabinet.
