Chapter 109: Crossing the River
"Hmph, Monk of Wine and Meat!" said Miao Yin.
"Wine and meat are there, and the monk is here. The wine and meat monk was full of oil, and said leisurely, "Monk, I'm not eating meat, I'm just trying to overtake the soul of this meat, and I'm not drinking, monk, I just want to turn it into a sweet spring." ”
Tu Xiaodao said: "The big boss is not this piece of meat, he should not know the pain of this piece of meat when he was bitten by you, and the big boss is not this pot of wine, and he should not know the unwillingness of it not to enter your stomach." ”
The wine and meat monk wiped his mouth with his shabby monk's robe, and asked, "You are not me, how do you know that I don't know this?"
"The younger generation is not a big boss, naturally they don't know what you know and think, and the big boss is not wine and meat, so naturally they don't know the pain they suffer. ”
"I ......" the wine and meat monk was about to speak, but he felt a surge in his abdomen, and he came to the outside of the ashram, opened his mouth and vomited, and the filth spat out all over the ground, only to see the minced meat turn into a sparrow, and with a few clear cries, and flutter its wings away, and the liquor seeped into the ground, turned into a spring, and gushed out from the ground.
Tu Xiaodao looked at everything in front of him, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Oh, it's comfortable. The wine and meat monk wiped his mouth with his monk's robe.
"The big boss, the knife is here. Miao Yin said.
"The knife is here, why are you here?"
"I beg the big boss to take me as an apprentice!" Tu Xiaodao hugged his fist.
"Why, why do you want to worship me as a teacher?
Tu Xiaodao shook his head and said, "No." ”
"And what do you want to learn?"
"The younger generation wants to learn the mind of the great master to purify all sentient beings, and also want to learn the compassion of the great master. Tu Xiaodao raised his eyes and saw that the quiet room seemed to be suspended in this hundred-mile market, standing outside the quiet room, he could see everything in the market, but here it could be isolated from the hustle and bustle, not disturbed by it, this quiet room should be in a wonderful formation. Miao Yin said that the wine and meat monk secretly looked at him a few times, so he should have peeked at him outside the quiet room.
"Oh?" After listening to what Tu Xiaodao said, the drunkenness on the face of the wine and meat monk disappeared, and a happy smile appeared, "Since you stepped into the Qinglou, the fate of you and my master and apprentice has arrived, and what you just said proves that you are enough to inherit my mantle." ”
"Xiaodao is already a disciple of Luoxiamen, so he only dares to worship the big master as a teacher for a day. ”
"What is the difference between one day and ten thousand years, one day is enough!"
"Master, please accept the apprentice's worship!"
Tu Xiaodao wanted to bow his knees, but the wine and meat monk hurriedly held Tu Xiaodao and said: "There is no need for these red tapes, from this moment on, I will be your master on this day, and you and I will have a good fate for this day." ”
"Wonderful! wonderful!" Miao Yin clapped his hands and smiled, "The big boss has finally received a satisfactory apprentice, which is really gratifying!"
The wine and meat monk touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "It's true that the disciple is satisfied, but the next day will not be easy!"
"That's your business," Miao Yin smiled at the wine and meat monk, "Brother Knife will be handed over to you." Then Miao Yin said to Tu Xiaodao: "Brother, you have to practice hard, you must not slack off, and when you win the disciple of the devil tomorrow night, my sister will drink flower wine with you." ”
Immediately, Miao Yin threw a charming look at Tu Xiaodao with her male and female eyes, and Tu Xiaodao was so mad that he got goosebumps all over his body.
Looking at Tu Xiaodao's expression, Miao Yin laughed out loud and said, "The monk is too boring here, so it's better to warm up the Jade Pavilion at ease." Before the words fell, the man had disappeared without a trace.
"A day is not short, it is not long, we have to hurry up. The wine and meat monk took out a seven-story stupa from his body.
The wine and meat monk held the pagoda in the palm of his hand and said to the butcher knife, "Now you and your teacher will enter the reincarnation pagoda and practice for a day." ”
The wine and meat monk incarnated outside the body, and his deity pulled the butcher knife into the reincarnation tower with his magical powers, and the doppelganger outside the tower turned into a golden Buddha statue holding the pagoda.
The wine and meat monk entered the reincarnation tower with a butcher knife. After entering the tower, a big river appeared in front of the butcher knife, and the wine and meat monk sat down by the river with the butcher knife.
"Master, where is this?"
"This is the first floor of the Reincarnation Tower. ”
"What kind of river is this?"
"Zen River. ”
"Why are we sitting by the river?"
"To cross the river. ”
"What's on the other side of the river?"
"The other side. ”
"But what can you do when you reach the other side, can you help the disciple defeat the disciple of the demon who came from the east?"
"Yes. ”
Tu Xiaodao heard what the wine and meat monk said, so he stood up and said to the wine and meat monk: "Disciple, come and try it now to see if you can reach the other side." ”
There is a strong prohibition on the Zen River, the river surface can not fly, and it is impossible to use the Dao charm, so the Tu Xiaodao stepped into the river, the river is not very deep, but it has just not reached the waist of the Tu Xiaodao, the Tu Xiaodao has moved forward more than ten zhang, it stands to reason that the surface of the Chan River is not wide, and the Tu Xiaodao should be able to reach the other bank, but unfortunately instead of reaching the other bank, it is getting farther and farther away from the other bank.
There is no space folding on the surface of the river, and there is no barrier of formations, and what is hidden in the Zen River should be more mysterious and advanced than the two.
Then it should be a law! In this Zen river, there is a hidden law of space!
No wonder you can't reach the other side, no wonder you can't cross the Zen River, there is a spatial law infiltrated in it, if you want to force your way across the river by brute force, it is tantamount to a fool's dream!
"The bitter sea is boundless, and the shore is the back!" said the wine and meat monk on the bank of the river.
Tu Xiaodao looked back, but the riverbank seemed to have become out of reach, and he was already trapped in this spatial law!
"Come back!" a mighty force pulled the butcher knife back from the crack in the law.
"Ahh
"If you want to cross the river, to reach the other side, unless you can cross the river in your heart, but the time is limited, you can stay in the tower for a year, you will be enlightened, you will be crossed. If you go beyond this year, you will never be able to cross this river again in this life!"
"If you want to cross the river in front of you, you must first cross the river in your heart......" Tu Xiaodao smacked the meaning of this sentence, and his mind recalled the words of Dharma Arhat when he debated with Dharma Arboran on the Aral Sea earlier: God is a thing, a thing is the mind, and the heart is also a god...... The two schools of Taoism and Buddhism both focus on enlightenment when it comes to cultivation. One of the ways of the Tao is to comprehend the way of heaven and the mysteries of the universe - that is the universe outside the body, and one of the ways of the Buddha is to comprehend the original mind - that is the universe inside the body.
Thinking of this, Tu Xiaodao immediately stood up and walked back.
"Stop!" asked the wine and meat monk, "you haven't crossed the river yet, how can you go?"
Tu Xiaodao strode forward, and said without looking back: "The river in my heart has been crossed." ”
Hearing Tu Xiaodao say this, the wine and meat monk suddenly smiled: "Good boy, where do you see you?"
