Chapter Thirty-Three: Failed Attempts

There are three thousand Dharmas, all of which are bodhichitta.

All sentient beings have their wishes, and it is difficult to achieve the great road.

......

Yue Fan held the dusty "Ten Directions Tibetan Buddha Handprints" and quietly flipped through the old pages, and couldn't help but feel emotional.

In fact, the book "Ten Directions Tibetan Buddha Mudra" is not a miracle book, but an incomplete Buddhist classic, just because the scriptures record some of the use of Buddhist mudras in the moves, can calm the mind and nourish the mind, remove distracting thoughts, so the predecessors of Shaolin Temple put this book in the category of martial arts, hoping that someone can use these mudras as meditation, in order to achieve the realm of physical and mental unity.

It's just that the handprint moves in this book are far inferior to other martial arts, and few people are willing to see and learn them. It is inevitable to think about it, and the people who come to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, who wants to read those scriptures that have nothing to do with martial arts, and over time, this "Ten Directions Great Tibetan Buddha Handprint" was put here, and the cover was stained with a thick layer of dust.

The Buddha's mudra, also known as the seal deed, refers to the various postures of the practitioner's hands and fingers when practicing the Dharma in Buddhism. In Buddhism, the various mudras symbolize their special wishes and cause and effect, so when Buddhists form mudras, their bodies produce special mental powers, which are often called spiritual powers.

After reading the book "Ten Directions Tibetan Buddha Handprints", Yue Fan can be sure that this method of Buddha seals is a method of using spiritual power. Yue Fan suddenly remembered its other name—"Alien Technique"!

Although this kind of Buddha mudra cannot be attacked like a "strange art", it can stabilize one's mind. If it weren't for Yue Fan's certain understanding of "strange arts", I'm afraid he would have put this book down and ignored it.

"Everything in the world is connected, and it seems that everything is in the midst of changes in heaven and earth. After sighing, Yue Fan forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, closed his eyes, and once again appeared in his mind the scene of the change in the hands of Senior Sister Chenxiang, the change of the opponent's hand when fighting with someone in the Great Marshal's Mansion, and the situation when a mysterious person rescued Huang Taiji in the Tatar tribe of the Bianding Grassland...... All of this seems to be connected!

Looking back now, Yue Fan suddenly realized! These people all used the same attack method, that is to say, they were all hermits and the like, and the hermit's attack method should also be based on the change of technique. It's just that Yue Fan doesn't know what the key to attack and defend is!

Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is even the chance to win. Thinking of this, Yue Fan's heart gradually became clearer, and he quietly recalled the situation when he fought with the three of them, as well as the changes in the opponent's hand......

The hands are like shadows, round like nature.

Strange changes, no reality.

......

"Tick-tock-tock-" A drop of sweat splashed on the palm of your hand!

Whenever Yue Fan recalled the changes in his hand, he wanted to imitate it, but he never got the point. Obviously, it flashed in his mind, but he couldn't see the mystery clearly at all! After many attempts, he still got nothing! At this time, he realized that the other party's trick was so fast and integrated that it far exceeded the level that his naked eye could remember! Could it be that this was the difference in strength?

"Huh~~" Yue Fan opened his eyes suddenly, his brows were tightly locked, and his expression was quite tired, obviously a little exhausted. It's so hard just to remember the changes in the hand decisions, how much work does it take to memorize and learn them?

Unconsciously, Yue Fan picked up the "Ten Directions Tibetan Buddha Handprints" again and flipped through it, carefully remembering the changes in each of the mudras, hoping to find something useful to him from this book, or inspiration.

The first half of the book records the words and stories of the ten Buddhas, while the second half records the ten mudras, each of which has a corresponding Buddha language as a support, so that the spiritual power and the mudra are in higher harmony.

......

After a while, Yue Fan calmed down and cast his handprints one by one according to the description in the book.

The body is like a Buddha, and sits like a lotus, "Lotus Flower Palm Print"...... The sky and the earth are full of "honorable victory and empty seals"...... It is not empty, it is not a "conch print"...... Vajra Force's "Karma Seal" ...... Dafa Tibetan Void Mi "Wishful Treasure Seal"...... Born to extinguish the "Light Gathering Buddha Top Seal"...... Fearless fighting heart "Victory Buddha top mudra"...... There is no causal "transfer" ...... Wisdom slashes the heart of the "Great Wisdom Knife Seal"...... Boundless and selfless" law definition seal......

Buddhism's heart is deep and difficult to understand, and even some eminent monks can't participate in the mysteries, let alone Yue Fan, a halfway monk. I saw that he tried again and again, but not only was his hands jerky and uncontrollable and there was no reaction at all, but it made him dizzy and his qi and blood were abnormally unsmooth.

"No, no, no, no!" Yue Fan lowered his head and kept asking himself: "What can't be done? Why is it still not good? Is it because I am too self-righteous and wrong in my guesses?" Or am I not working hard enough?"

"No......!

Still no! Again......

Try again......

Yue Fan is calm and resolute and never gives up, however, under the blows of failure again and again, he has fallen into a paranoid corner. He could have put the book down and looked for other miracle books as a reference, but he stubbornly chose an unfamiliar path. And it is getting deeper and deeper, and now I can't extricate myself.

"Boom-"

The excessive consumption of mental power finally caused Yue Fan to fall to the floor without support, and the first attempt ended in failure.

......

If I fail, I still fail! Am I really not good......

Bursts of pain invaded his mind, and Yue Fan felt extremely tired, and he didn't even have the strength to open his eyes.

In a trance, he seemed to see his father's vicissitudes of life...... Li Tan was in front of Yue Fan, serious but caring, always looking at him with an encouraging gaze: "Child, you are very good, you have never let me down, presumably your mother thinks the same way!Alas~~ It's a pity that she went to a far away place......"

This...... This is what my father said to himself many years ago!

His thoughts were wandering, and he didn't know how long it had been, Yue Fan was surrounded by this warm feeling, even if he knew that it was an illusion, he still enjoyed it very much, was very obsessed, and didn't want to wake up!

"Brother Yue Fan, you're finally back, Ya'er misses you so much...... What did the eldest brother bring to Ya'er this time?"

In front of her, a well-behaved and delicate little girl rushed out of the door of the thatched house and threw herself into her arms. Ya'er, you're back to me again......

"Xiao Fan, come and eat, it's not early. ”

Inside the room, Mr. Wan had a happy face, and his eyes were full of kind smiles.

......

Yes, everything is beautiful here!

Here, there is no sadness and no disappointment. Here, there are relatives, friends, joy and happiness. When a person is extremely lost and sad, and suddenly has everything he wants, even if he knows that it is fake, who would want to leave?

"I'll leave, but not now......"

At this time, Yue Fan was immersed in the dream world, he knew very well that all this was an ethereal illusion, it was the demons in his heart that were throbbing, and he should wake up early. However, he was reluctant to leave, really reluctant...... Such a mood is like, everything that was once beautiful in front of oneself, but suddenly one day, they all disappear, how to fill the gap in the heart?

It is undeniable that Yue Fan is very strong, but he is only one person when he is strong, and he has never escaped the erosion of seven emotions and six desires. At this moment, he doesn't want to be forever, he just hopes that good things can stay temporarily, even if it's just for a while, for a while......

......

There is no time lost in the darkness, maybe it is a long, long time, maybe it is just a quiet nap. When Yue Fan opened his eyes, everything around him had changed.

The rocks overhead, the surrounding mountain walls, and the Buddha's words on the mountain walls......

"Li Jushi, you're finally awake!" An old and soft voice sounded in Yue Fan's ears, looking for prestige, and the empty monk came from outside the cave.

Yue Fan suddenly fell into a coma in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, but the four Dharma Protector King Kong were startled, and they thought that he had gone mad, so he hurriedly reported the news, and then brought Yue Fan back to the "Dharma Cave".

"Master, I had a long, long dream just now, and I dreamed of a lot of people......"

"Amitabha-" Kongwen smiled: "Dreams are born from the heart, and there are no thoughts and no stains." Li Jushi, you have too many things on your mind that you can't let go. ”

"What I think in my heart, seven emotions and six desires, how can I let go of a layman?" Yue Fan turned over, sat cross-legged on the stone platform, and smiled bitterly: "Master, how long have I been lying down?"

"Stinky Boy...... Stinky boy, you're finally awake...... Hahaha......" A figure flashed into the cave amid a rough shout.

Yue Fan didn't need to look to know that the person who came was Kou Fei, but behind him, in addition to Xiao Mingyou, Xiaohuo and Taixiao, there were three more people with strange faces.

"Smack!" Kou Fei stepped forward, slapped a hand on Yue Fan's back, and laughed: "You kid has slept for a day and a night, but it's hard for the old man and my good apprentice to worry about you for a day and a night." Hehe~~ However, the old man knows that your life is big, and it is not so easy to die. Haha-"

Xiao Mingyou stood silently in front of Yue Fan, although he didn't say a word, his eyes were a little red, and he didn't sleep all night because he was worried about the other party.

Xiaohuo generously jumped to Yue Fan's side, rubbed him twice, and then lay lazily on the side, looking very sleepy.

Taixiao also stepped forward and said, "Hehe~~ It's good that the little brother is awake." Lao Dao knows that you have an obsession, but you don't need to work so hard, right? You must know that life is the capital of everything, if you can't take care of it, how can you do what you want to do?

“......”

Looking at the people around him who cared about him, Yue Fan nodded quietly.

Touching does not need the expression of true feelings, when you bury it deep in your heart and wait until the day of germination, you may be able to bloom a more beautiful heart flower.

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Kou Fei grabbed him and said curiously: "Boy, tell me quickly, how did you faint? Originally, the old man thought that you were crazy, and he scared me so much at that time." Later, when I took a closer look with the old monk, I realized that you were just mentally exhausted. What the hell are you doing in the Scripture Pavilion to make yourself mentally prostration?"

Yue Fan's strong physical and mental strength Kou Fei knew, and he really couldn't understand how the other party could faint in the scripture building.

Slightly stunned, Yue Fan said lightly: "It's nothing, I'm trying a set of Buddhist exercises, and I fainted when I was too tired." ”

Hearing the great curiosity, he put his hands together and said: "Although there are many Buddhist exercises, most of them are based on cultivation, circle and accessibility, I don't know what kind of exercises the layman is enlightening?"

Yue Fan said bluntly: "It's the "Ten Directions Tibetan Buddha Handprint", which I accidentally saw on the second floor of the scripture building. ”

"The Ten Directions Great Tibetan Buddha Mudra?" said in confusion: "The old monk has also read this scripture, and the Buddha Mudra has no other purpose except for meditation and recuperation. Strange ......"

"Hey, whatever, as long as the person is fine! Little brother, don't try it in the future! The old Taoist priest is right, life is the capital of everything. Kou Fei happily patted Yue Fan's shoulder, who nodded silently.

"Yo~~My old man hasn't seen such a big scene for a long time!Old man Kou, I can't see that you are quite temperamental!haha~~ However, it is the first time that the old man has met a prostration person who can read a book, and it is really strange that there are many things every day, and there are a lot of them today!hehe~~"

The three people behind him stepped forward, Kou Fei coughed dryly, and pointed to the hunchbacked old man on the left and said: "Little brother, this old guy who can't spit ivory out of his mouth is called Mo Bei, everyone is used to calling him 'Old Man Tuo', and he is one of the top ten masters of Baidao like the old man, but with his little ability, I don't know how to get involved." ”

"Old man Kou, you bastard, who are you scolding for being a dog? You are a dog! Don't think you are so powerful, I, I ......" Mo Bei jumped angrily, but instead of making a move, he took out a big cigarette pouch from behind his back and took two puffs vigorously.

"Hmph! The old man doesn't talk to idiots, and I don't know if idiots will be contagious!"

"You ......"

Kou Fei glanced at his mouth, casually led to a pair of men and women next to him and continued: "Little brother, this long-looking person is called Diao Ming, he is a complete Diao Min, what is the name of 'Yin Yang Scholar', it is really disgusting to others! The other is the most gentle and beautiful, the most kind and lovely, the most dignified and virtuous, and the most ...... among us Uh! The only woman among the top ten masters of our white way, 'Shuirou Fairy', Jiuxuan sister!hehe~~"

Everyone is embarrassed, and this Kou Fei's mouth is also cheap!

......

Yue Fan got up and saluted one by one, and suddenly heard a strange cry from Mo Bei: "Wow! It turns out that you are the legendary 'knife maniac' Li Yuefan? I heard that you kid is very powerful." ”

For the name of "knife maniac" Li Yuefan, it can be heard everywhere in the rivers and lakes, and his fame is so great that it surpasses the top ten masters of black and white.

"Yin and Yang Scholar" Diao Ming shook his fan lightly, and said with a smile: "Heroic and introverted, hidden but not revealed, he is really a young hero." ”

Kou Fei's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly said loudly: "Old man Mo, of course my little brother is better than you, and I don't look at my own appearance." If my little brother made a move, it would be nice if you could take two or three hits. ”

"What! Old man Kou, you say that this kid is more powerful than my old man? I don't think you should change your name to 'knife idiot', call you an idiot!" Mo Bei glared at him and secretly wondered: "How can the rumors in the rivers and lakes be believed? No matter how powerful a young man's martial arts are, he can't have strong internal strength, this old man must want to use this kid to save my face, and there is no door." ”

Kou Fei looked at the other party with disdain, glanced at his mouth with disdain, and said, "Old man Mo, I don't know about your two times? ”

Mo Beizhi stomped his feet and said, "Okay, good, the old man wants to try how powerful this kid's kung fu is...... Come on, come on, let's practice. ”

"I don't want to fight. Yue Fan said a word, and the cave suddenly became cold.

......

"My mother! The old man actually forgot this kid's terrible character. Kou Fei scolded secretly, straightened his complexion, and said seriously to Yue Fan: "Little brother, although Old Man Mo's martial arts are not very good, he is still a master no matter how you say it." Your martial arts are at a bottleneck now, and you should find more masters to compete in order to have comprehension. The old man is from the past, you believe me, the truth comes out in actual combat!"

After pondering for a moment, Yue Fan nodded and said, "Okay, let's go out." So saying, the man walked outside the cave.

"Uh!" Mo Bei was stunned, in such a situation, how did he feel like asking the other party to compete with him?

"Whatever, beat this kid up, and see if that old man dares to fight me in the future. Hey~~" After reading it, Mo Bei quickly followed out of the cave.

Taixiao and Kongwen were about to say something, but they were stopped by Kou Fei.

"Yin Yang Scholar" Diao Ming and "Water Soft Fairy" Jiu Xuan looked at each other when they saw this, and immediately guessed Kou Fei's intentions. The "knife idiot" is also poisonous!

Immediately, everyone quickly followed.
