Chapter 53: The Orchard Debate

Uncle Pig, a philosopher, cooks in the high-end kitchen of Mount Meru, which has been smokeless for a long time, and washes the dust for visitors who have rarely seen him for hundreds of years.

Yi Tianxing walked alone on the top of the mountain and pressed the grass. Now that he has come to Mount Meru, he will be able to see his master, and he is not as anxious as he was at the beginning.

Five hundred years is also a snap of the fingers, so why care about the number of idle hours.

It's just that some people want their wives and children to be on the kang, and the emotions of the young man now occupy Yi Tianxing's head. When he was alone, he held on to the black slate for a while, his eyes flashed with Lei Lei's Xiu Ming eyes and Xiao Yi Zhu's hateful appearance, and then thought about Ye Xiangseng's more and more handsome face, and snickered and thought, if he returned to the world, Ye Xiang's guy would become a little baby, right?

Homesick, he frowned, and carefully lowered his consciousness into the black stone under his elbow.

The black stone is not pure black, there seems to be a lot of strange blue light flowing slowly in it, like the eternal change of stars in the universe.

But to Yi Tianxing's surprise, when he entered the black stone, he found that this strange black stone was actually empty, and no matter how much he indulged in his divine sense, he couldn't touch anything real.

The black stone was like a door, and there was nothing behind it.

He touched his nose, a trace of coldness flashed in the corner of his eyes, and for some reason, he didn't continue to try again, but walked towards the back of the extremely wide summit of Mount Meru with both hands.

......

......

Walking among the barren grass, he unconsciously came to a mountain forest. There was wind in the forest, but the wind had no direction, but it blew softly in all directions, blowing the trees in the forest to the east and west. It seems that the jΔ«ng spirit is dancing.

A gust of wind was a little stronger, blowing down a hard object, and it fell in front of Yi Tianxing with a thud.

He looked at it and found that it was a ripe fruit that was about to rot, so he smiled slightly and said to himself: "You helped Newton solve the problem, are you going to help me solve the problem again this time?"

As soon as the words came out, he suddenly thought of the conversation between him and the old ancestor in the back circle of the Guiyuan Temple after returning from xΔ«zΓ ng that year, and he couldn't help frowning. Raise your eyes and look around.

The trees around it bear all fruit.

It may be red, green, or yellow, round, flat, or oddly shaped.

Countless fruits. Born among the trees, he showed his distinctive smiling face, dragging the branches heavily, pressing them into countless curved curves, as if he was saluting Lin Zizheng's Yi Tianxing.

Yi Tianxing stretched out his hand, and an invisible force broke through the air, picking a green and yellow wild fruit from the bent treetops. I rubbed it twice with my hand, brought it to my lips, and took a bite.

With a sigh, he almost fell into his teeth with acid, snorted twice, spit the flesh to the ground, and scolded: "What a sour fruit." ”

He chuckled in his heart, remembering what the old monkey had said.

......

......

"I gave the sour fruit to the Buddha to eat, hehe. ”

......

......

Yi Tianxing's eyes were in a trance. His consciousness was uncertain, as if he could see five hundred years ago, in this broken fruit ball. The boring conversation between the Buddha and the old monkey.

The trees shook gently, and a Buddha and a monkey sat opposite each other.

There are fruits scattered around the two of them, and there are several bottles of good wine stolen by the old monkey from the Heavenly Palace, and the clear light on the top of Mount Meru is pervasive, and the two of them drink in the light, and occasionally talk.

"Wukong, after eating this fruit, what will happen to the kernel?"

The Buddha's treasure statue is compassionate but vague, and the facial features can be seen clearly, but a faint quiet and elegant aura emanates from the Buddha's body.

Although the old monkey was wearing a robe, he still looked like a stubborn beast, and his body was full of untamedness, and he grinned and screamed: "What does the Buddha think? After the fruit is eaten, the core of the fruit is thrown away." ”

The Buddha smiled slightly, and was confused, but still asked, "What should I do if the kernel is thrown into the ground, and a fruit tree grows and a sour fruit grows?"

The old monkey rolled up the hem of the robe, took two sips of wine, stuck out his tongue spicily, and only after a while did he understand the words of the Buddha, and shouted in a stunned voice: "You great wisdom, how can you be more confused than my family, and when you bear fruit, you will naturally eat it." ”

"And what happens to the pits after eating?"

The Buddha's eyes were full of infinite compassion, and he was compassionate: "What should I do?"

......

......

The old monkey froze in place, and subconsciously stretched out the back of his furry hand to probe the Buddha's forehead to see if he was burned. Halfway through his hand, he realized that this move was a bit wrong, hehe smiled and withdrew his hand, pulled the corner of the robe and wiped the saliva on his lips twice, and sneered: "Don't be too confused, how can you talk all this nonsense." ”

The Buddha was not angry, nor did he sigh, but just smiled and asked: "There must be an end, the fruit core grows the tree, the tree bears sour fruit, the fruit leaves the fruit core, and the life is endless, why is it over?"

There was silence for a long time.

After all, this kind of philosophical question provoked the old monkey's long-suppressed violent emotions, and the monkey naturally didn't know what he was good at, so he couldn't help but feel that his face was a little unbearable, and he screamed: "In this case, pinch it and want to be a fart." ”

With a soft sound, the dark brown kernel in the old monkey's hand was easily pinched into countless pieces by two iron fingers, and it was scattered on the ground in the forest.

The Buddha smiled again, clasped his hands together, bowed to the old monkey, recited a sutra softly, and got up to leave.

The two monkeys in the empty fruit circle were suffocated.

The light gradually changed, and Yi Tianxing suddenly woke up from the illusion in front of him, and countless cold sweats seemed to flow from his forehead.

He subconsciously touched it, only to find that there was not a drop of sweat on his forehead. This has something to do with his own physique, since he was a child, he has not sweated, but he feels cold sweat in the sea. This is enough to prove that he is terrified and uneasy in his heart.

After reading the dialogue between five hundred years ago in this Guoyuanzi, Yi Tianxing's heart was full of horror and confusion, this panic and confusion came for no reason, and even he himself didn't understand why.

He could understand the words spoken by the Buddha at the end of his conversation with the old monkey.

Although that sentence seemed to be Sanskrit, and it seemed to be some ancient language, as soon as it entered Yi Tianxing's ears, he immediately understood the meaning of this sentence.

Because this sentence, for him, means too many things, and has been with him for too long. As early as one or four years ago in that summer rì pond. When he first realized the Tao, he had seen this sentence in the form of golden characters all over the sky. Floating in front of his eyes.

At that time, he didn't understand what these Brahmans meant, but from that day on, he gradually woke up, from a hard-bodied human boy to a monastic genius with no hindrance to the Dharma.

This sentence was the first turning point in his life.

......

......

"When you are in and out of breath, you are looking at impermanence. The second birth of the law of the law. The development and rotation are more related to each other, and even the fate of the people, and it does not stop when it starts......"

Yi Tianxing frowned, sat cross-legged on the loess in the fruit circle, trembling up and down, I didn't know what I was afraid of, so I had to use the Zen Sutra to protect my mind, so as to reduce my boredom a little.

......

......

The last words that Yi Tianxing said when he saw the Buddha for the second time was on Wudang Mountain. At that time, the real martial arts were suppressed, and there was a heavenly fire outside, and he passed out in a coma. Before falling into a coma, he first listened to Mr. Wu Chengen's jokes and knew that it was a precursor to his cultivation that was about to increase greatly, but in a coma, he was looking at the Sanskrit scriptures leisurely.

But until then, he still didn't know what that meant.

It wasn't until the rì later cultivated to the end that it was about to break through the sky. In the small valley behind him, facing the great lamas of Tailinchuan and Tashilhunpo Monastery, he was about to take that step, the step of separating God from man.

Countless birds flew from outside the valley, forming a strange line of characters in the sky.

Yi Tianxing wandered outside the body, and finally became a master, and finally understood the meaning of these words, that is, the meaning of seeing the earth in the small pond.

It's a very simple four words.

"Life is hard. ”

The last thing the Buddha and the old monkey said in the "debate between the kernel" is these four words.

"Life is hard. ”

......

......

Yi Tianxing sat cross-legged in the fruit circle behind Mount Meru, groaned and said, "Life is bitter. "I recalled many of the past in my life, and then I understood why I was so indifferent to killing people in the small valley behind me, and regarded my life as nothing.

Inspired by these four-character mantras, at that time, he and Xiao Yizhu thought that erasing the traces of a life was to liberate the other party, not to be violent.

It's ridiculous, it's ridiculously logical.

But I don't know what the Buddha meant by these four words.

"It's boring to think about it. ”

At the mouth of the fruit circle, under a fruit tree, the second uncle of Wu Neng was gnawing on an old corn cob, and said vaguely: "Buddha, great bodhisattva, these people who practice to the extreme are the most boring, they will explain everything to you, if you keep thinking about what they said, you will be confused." ”

Yi Tianxing smiled reluctantly, got up from the ground, walked to his side, and saluted, "Uncle Shi taught me." ”

Wu Neng touched his round belly, and sneered: "What to teach you? There is nothing in the world, mediocrity disturbs itself, if you don't care about my senior brother getting out of trouble, don't care about life and death, I'm afraid that you are still happy in the world." Now this situation is your own choice, so naturally you want to worry about yourself, what does it have to do with me. ”

Yi Tianxing smiled bitterly: "Ignore these for the time being, it's just that if we want to take our master to the world, we are afraid that the Pure Land will do it, and when the time comes, we will have to help our uncle." ”

"Fool. Wu Neng sneered, stretched out a round finger and shook it: "It was Guanyin Bodhisattva who threw you down, and she lured you up, naturally there are things she wants you to do, you haven't even seen her face, how do you know what to do? Since she wants to use you, she naturally won't watch you being beaten into the netherworld." When the time comes, with her as a big helper, who are you afraid of?"

Yi Tianxing was stunned, and said in his heart, how could this second uncle look at such a slick military figure who looked like an old jiān?

"Just go with the flow. Wu Neng seemed to see that he was puzzled, and sighed like an old philosopher: "In life, there must always be a living head, I just want to be more comfortable, greedy yΓΉ is too prosperous, so a thousand years ago, I suffered a lot." When I learned the scriptures, the Bodhisattva asked me to escort it, and I drove it, since others use you, they will always give you some benefits, but as for how much effort we make, that's another story. ”

He paused, and couldn't help grinning: "I'm not a sincere person like my senior brother, on the way to learn the scriptures, I actually fought with those monsters, and I didn't look at who those monsters were behind them." As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog, he beat so many dogs, and he knows how many immortals in the heavenly realm have been offended. ”

"Of course, he is better than me, so he is not afraid to offend people. I can do it. Wu Neng said: "So this kind of thing is done, anyway, I have already seen through this thing, and in the end, it will not be our turn to benefit, it is just a bunch of bad things that the Buddha saw idlely." ”

Yi Tianxing smiled bitterly: "If I have the mind of the second uncle, then I will be happy." ”

Wu Neng smiled, stretched out his big hand like a fan, and touched Yi Tianxing's head twice lovingly: "You kid is different from me, both Buddhism and Taoism are fighting for you, you are similar to my senior brother, it seems that you will be a very powerful person in the future, and when the time comes, you can give your uncle some benefits." ”

Yi Tianxing was suffocated, and said after a while: "That's that, the family doesn't speak two words." ”

Wu Neng suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Even if the Bodhisattva promises you great benefits in the future, you don't have to work too hard. He turned his head to look around, and said cautiously: "You must know that your master's monkey is a self-proclaimed natural genius, fighting bravely and ruthlessly, and obeying others, but in the end, he is still like your uncle and me. ”

"That's right. Yi Tianxing also came to talk, and scolded: "In the end, I actually made a lion, a peng, and an image to be used as a roadblock, and this Buddha is too ruthless." ”

Wu Neng glanced at him twice, and sneered: "What kind of lion is not a lion, it's not a matter of these great bodhisattvas like Shu Puxian." ”

Yi Tianxing grinned, thinking that the old monkey was locked up in Guiyuan Temple, but he didn't seem to have any hatred for Ye Xiang, and he didn't know what was going on.

Wu Neng thought back on the past and sighed: "In fact, on the way to learn the scriptures, no monster can help but get the senior brother, and he also understands that no monster dares to eat the master at all, so then he is always lazy, and when something happens, he flies back to the sky to find the monster master to make a move, and by the way, he can also enjoy two days of paid vacation, happy...... It was only when he met that Peng'er that the senior brother could be regarded as having the will to fight, and he had a good fight. ”

Yi Tianxing chuckled in his heart: "That...... Peng'er is very powerful?"

Wu Neng glanced at him, and snorted: "The first time the two families of Buddhism and Taoism fought was the thief bird, you said it was amazing?"

"What do you mean?"

"Suzaku, have you heard of it?"

Yi Tianxing's face was blue and white for a while, and after a while, his mother was furious, and her face was shiny with pride, and she said, "It's not just that I heard about it. ”

That's, not just heard...... He was born.
