After a while, the two let go. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info Ah Hao patted Lu Zhang's shoulder, "It hasn't changed at all!"
Smiling at Ah Hao, Lu Zhang said, "Senior brother hasn't changed much!"
"By the way, this Dapeng! he didn't embarrass you for anything!" Ah Hao glanced at Lu Zhangdao.
Lu Zhang shook his head, "Dapeng just brought me to this heavenly and earthly continent, and didn't embarrass me. But Senior Brother, how did you come to this Heavenly and Earthly Continent, why didn't you see Senior Brother Jing, Senior Brother Tianlun, Senior Brother Bin Xuan, and my Senior Brother Iron God? Why didn't they come? β
With a wry smile, Ah Hao told the matter of the Five Houses Competition.
"How did this happen!" Lu Zhang said with some surprise: "What about Senior Brother Tieshen? Isn't he still missing?"
With a long sigh, Ah Hao said: "He should be like you and you, went to other continents, I and Jing, Tianlu and Bin Xuan have already said before they parted that they will find news about you and the Iron God along the way, and now you are looking for it, but I don't have any news from the Iron God here, maybe there will be one on the side, senior brother!"
"Now it's all about this!" Lu Zhang patted Ah Hao's arm and said.
"Alright, tell me about you! What happened after the Roc took you away. And if you want to become a monk, you have to think about it. β
Nodding slightly, Lu Zhang said, "Don't worry, I've already seen it." Lu Zhang smiled at Ah Hao, "Dapeng brought me to this heavenly and earthly continent, here, because of the strangeness of the surroundings, I don't know what I'm going to do, and I don't know how to go back to school." In this way, I walked aimlessly on this continent alone, and I don't know how many mountains and forests and how many cities I have walked through. Finally, on a piece of the Gobi, I fainted from exertion. When I woke up, I was taken home by a kind old couple. The couple is over half a hundred years old, but they have no children. β
Speaking of this, Lu Zhang smiled a little bitterly. "Maybe because of my arrival, I can see that this couple is very good to me, and that is, in this time, I feel at home for the first time. My brothers and sisters have been orphans since childhood, and although we were happy at school, we lacked a special warmth that I felt in the home of this old couple. Although they are not rich, I can feel that they are happy. β
As if recalling the picture at that time, Lu Zhang smiled. Ah Hao could see that Lu Zhang's smile at this time was from the bottom of his heart, and he really liked this feeling.
"Just when I thought I would stay here forever, the arrival of illness caused everything in this warm and happy family. A strange and strange disease appeared in this couple, maybe because I was a cultivator so I didn't get infected with this disease, but the old couple couldn't get rid of it. At that point, I searched all the pharmacists I could findγγγγγ However..... β
Seeing Lu Zhang's slightly moist eyes, Ah Hao gently patted Lu Zhang's back. smiled at Ah Hao, but the smile seemed a little far-fetched.
"Eventually, they died in the struggle against the disease. Lu Zhang took a deep breath, calmed down his mood and continued, "Senior brother, do you know. The disease in them is not an incurable disease, but a very ordinary disease. As long as these pharmacists are willing to help, their illness will surely be cured. But I was penniless at the time, and the old couple didn't have the money to hire a pharmacist, so they had to stay up, and I γγγγγ And I can only watch the condition of the two of them deteriorate day by day, until it comes to an end... They have given me warmth in my hardest times, and I ... But when they are most helpless, they can only watch from the sidelines. β
In the end, Lu Zhang's tone was already a little choked. In this regard, Ah Hao didn't know what to say, just like that, after a short silence, Lu Zhang wiped away the tears on his face and said: "When I buried the two old men, I swore that I would kill these pharmacists, and at that time, I hated them so much." It was at that time that the appearance of Master Zhongqing helped me to open my eyes, which had been blinded by hatred. So, I chose to become a monk, and I wanted to know if in the world of a Buddha we could really achieve equality for all beings, and if there really was a state of mind of having no desires and no desires. β
"Is your ordination just to verify these answers?" asked Ah Hao, looking at Lu Zhang.
"That's just one aspect. Lu Zhang walked to the candlestick, looked at the dancing firelight and said softly: "Master Zhongqing told me that the greatest merit in the Buddha realm is to purify sentient beings, and this is also the concept of the Holy Buddha Sect, so the Holy Buddha Sect ranks its disciples according to the purification of sentient beings. I don't want to see more people going down the path of this old couple, so I want to take over the responsibility of purifying all sentient beings. β
Looking at Lu Zhang's figure with his back to himself, Ah Hao smiled, "You have grown!You are much more mature than when you first left school." Now that you've decided, I won't say anything more!"
"The shaving ceremony will start tomorrow, senior brother, I hope you can come!" Lu Zhang said, turning his back to Ah Hao.
"Yes!" Hao replied and left the room. Walking out of Lu Zhang's room, Ah Hao did not go directly back to the place where he lived, but went to the mountain forest that separated the front yard from the back yard.
At this time, the Holy Buddha Sect is no longer as noisy as during the day, perhaps because it is tired of playing during the day, the current Holy Buddha Sect is too quiet. Finding a vacant space casually, Ah Hao sat down.
"Donor! Your junior brothers have already seen it! Why do you bother to struggle here! Love parting, resentment and resentment, and returning to the West are all kind. It's just empty eyes, an illusion. It's the same with life!"
In the forest, at some point, an old monk sat opposite Ah Hao, as if he had never left here. The old monk was dressed in a robe, holding a Buddhist bead and his eyes slightly closed.
Looking at this monk, Ah Hao secretly said, "What a high cultivation!" But then he thought that he was nothing in the Holy Buddha Sect.
"It's not that I can't let it go, it's just that I finally found my junior brother, but he is actually going to become a monk, think about it, my junior brother is still young, so he escaped into the empty door, won't there be any regrets?" Ah Hao looked at the senior monk in front of him and said.
"Regret?" the monk seemed to smile. "No regrets, where can happiness come from? This is a world of whirlwind, whirlwind has regrets, no regrets, no matter how much happiness you give, you will not experience happiness. The monk slowly opened his eyes.
At that moment, Ah Hao found that the monk's eyes were so clear, as if there was no debris, and from his eyes, Ah Hao seemed to see all kinds of things in this world.
"Young people, a flower is a world, a grass is a paradise, a tree is a Bodhi, a leaf is as it comes, a sand is a bliss, a stone is a Qiankun, a pure land on one side, a smile is a dust, a thought is pure. Don't worry too much, just look away, and everything will be let go. Your junior brother has your junior brother's path to take. The monk folded his hands together and chanted the Dharma Path.
Closing his eyes, Ah Hao reflected on the monk's words. couldn't help but smile, "I understand!" When Ah Hao opened his eyes again, he found that the old monk who was still opposite him a second ago was now gone, leaving only patches of woods and reflections. It was like a dream just now.
"This Holy Buddha Sect is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!" Ah Hao couldn't help sighing at the scene just now, got up and smiled at the bright moon in the sky.
The next day, under the sound of a heavy bell, Ah Hao and Meng Ling came to the front of the Daxiong Treasure Palace. Today's Holy Buddha Sect is not open to the public, because today is the time when Lu Zhang worships the Buddha, and in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, monks are holding baths and reciting Buddhist scriptures in unison. On the top of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, Lu Zhang knelt in front of the incense platform.
"It's very unpleasant in my heart!" Glancing at Lu Zhang, who was kneeling there, Meng Ling said to Ah Hao.
Shaking his head, "It's his choice, he can make his own choice, I should be happy for him!"
Glancing at Ah Hao in surprise, Meng Ling didn't expect him to say this.
"Knock!" After a bell, Ah Hao looked at the sun overhead, and whispered to Mengling: "The shaving ceremony has begun!
