After the catastrophe of the annihilation, the vitality of the Weiwu Sect was greatly damaged, and Shi Jia's death was undoubtedly worse for the Weiwu Sect, and the elder of the Weiwu Sect, Lian Sanzan, began the reconstruction of the Weiwu Sect while sending people to inquire about the whereabouts of the second lady Mu Ling and look for four enemies.

Gradually, rumors began to spread in the rivers and lakes that the case of the destruction of the Weiwu Sect was done by He Zicang, who was arrested by the famous Jinmen, and said that the various factions in the rivers and lakes witnessed the occurrence of this tragedy, but they did not dare to offend the imperial court, so they did not come to the rescue.

Even Sanzan also got the news, at first, he didn't believe it, feeling that the Weiwu Sect and the imperial court had no enmity, and it was impossible to incur a bloody disaster. But then the matter spread more and more, and was said by everyone clearly, and gradually even Sanzan was suspicious in his heart, and there were rumors that the "Xuanji Map" was a treasure collected in the treasury of the palace, which was stolen by a mysterious person, and then it was lost to the people.

After thinking about it again and again, Lian Sanzan decided to personally take people to the various sects to ask about the matter, but due to the reconstruction of the sect and the many affairs, he was never able to separate, and remembered that at this time, the Wuwu Sect was hit hard and could not compete with the imperial court, so he did not take any action for several days.

And the rumors of Jinmen Kyushu patrolling He Zicang's bloodshed in the Weiwu Sect gradually spread to the ears of the disciples of the Weiwu Sect, they were all sad and indignant, and they were bent on avenging their brothers, however, even Sanzan did not have any special actions, and there was not even a sign of revenge, although the disciples did not dare to act privately, but they were dissatisfied with their mouths, and for a while, in the Weiwu Sect, there was a lot of resentment.

The two hearts cannot be one, so there is no suspicion within the witch cult, and there is no longer the prosperity of uniting as before to fight against foreign enemies. In the long run, it will inevitably breed civil strife, and even Sanzan knows this, and he has all kinds of pain in his heart, but no one confides in him.

One said, the witch sect came to an old monk, the law name Shouyi, according to legend, is the Xiangji Temple in the north of the Buddha Mountain to preach and preach the scriptures of the monk, even three praise in the heart of the worried, listen to the famous monk coming, then Shouyi invited to his residence, ask him to answer questions for himself.

Late at night, the moonlight was like silver, the cool breeze was swishing, and Lian Sanzan asked the old monk and said: "Master, recently the old man is difficult to sleep and eat, and he is in pain, and there is a puzzle in his heart, and he also asks the master to guide the maze." ”

"Suffering is caused by sorrow, and worry is born from chaos, and even the elders feel bitter and helpless, and it must be because there are too many miscellaneous things and they have not prioritized them, so they are trapped by mundane things. Shouichi smiled slightly, gave a Buddha salute, and said, there seemed to be endless Zen between the words.

The master was really wonderful, and he understood the old man's thoughts at a glance. ”

In fact, the confusion of the world is like being in a thick fog, which obscures the eyes and makes it impossible to see the future, even if it is the source of suffering. Shouyi stared at the white moon in the sky, glanced at Lian Sanzan who was dazed in front of him, and continued, "Elder Lian, tell me how people can not suffer from this confusion when they are in the fog?"

"Lift the lamp and move forward. Lian Sanzan stared at the room, the flickering faint candle flame, and said firmly.

"Carrying the weight forward, the suffering of all beings, there are many people in the world who feel that the road of life is heavy and tired, because they have carried too many things and do not know how to give up and are miserable. ”

"Ask someone to lead the way. Lian Sanzan thought about it and said.

"There is a saying in the Buddhist book that the seven sufferings of life, birth, old age, sickness, death, resentment, love and separation, asking for nothing, begging, for the last suffering, there is a request and a response, but it is not bitter, but there is no response, then people are tormented, and if they can't ask for it, they will be miserable. ”

"How can the master say that we can not be trapped in this fog?"

"Close your eyes. ”

"Close your eyes?"

"Yes, close your eyes! If there is no mundane affairs in the eyes, you will not be trapped by mundane things, and if there is nothing in your eyes, you can have nothing in your heart. People live in the world, as small as mayflies, and the vast ocean is full of dangers due to temptation, only in this way can we not be confused by the heart, not trapped in love!"

"If there is nothing in the eye, there is nothing in the heart. The old man still has a question to ask the master, everything in the world is divided into internal and external, how does the master think this internal and external thing should be treated?

Shouyi glanced at the tabletop, there were two teacups on it, one was just poured after drinking, and the other cup had not been drunk, but it was already cold, Shouyi rolled up his sleeves, stretched out his right hand to pick it up, handed it to Lian Sanzan's hand, and asked, "How do you feel?"

"The tea is already cold. ”

Monk Shouyi picked up another cup of tea and handed it to Lian Sanzan, Lian Sanzan stretched out his other hand, took the teacup handed over by Monk Shouyi, and asked, "How do you feel?"

"Hot hands!"

Shouyi took out another teacup and handed it to Lian Sanzan, who stared at the teacup and said helplessly: "Master, I can't take it anymore." ”

"You should let go, and only by letting go of some things will you have the energy to accept and deal with other things better. Elder Lian, just now you asked about internal and external matters, the old man handed the teacup to Elder Lian, just like this foreign thing, if you don't take it, it will not be possible to bring different feelings to your heart, to accept or not to accept, is the two choices of people to external things, of course, there are still many things in the world that cannot be avoided, external things will affect people's hearts, let go of one part, in order to accept the other part, to keep the stability of the heart, must first eliminate the interference of external objects. ”

"I understand, Ann must first go outside, and let go before he can become a Buddha, thank you for the master's guidance!"

"Since Elder Lian has comprehended the truth of this, there is no longer a need for Lao Wei here, after tonight, Lao Ge will leave this place and go elsewhere, thank you Elder Lian for taking him in!"

"Master, it's better to stay a little longer, I still have a lot of questions I want to ask the master. ”

"Dharma is everywhere, it can grow anywhere, whether it's a cliff or an abyss, but there has to be someone who sows the seeds. ”

"The master is the one who sows the seed. ”

"Ha, ha, ha. ”

"Ha, ha, ha. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the simple communication in their eyes actually had a wordless tacit understanding.

Seeing that the monk Shouyi had made up his mind, even Sanzan no longer forced him to stay, and the two ended the seemingly long and complicated question and answer with a simple conversation.

"The master's Buddhism is exquisite, and the old man said that he must go to the Xiangji Temple of Foshan in Saibei to worship the Buddha and ask for Zen. ”

"Okay! When the time comes, the old man will definitely prepare the food and tea for Elder Lian. ”

Outside the window, the moonlight is still like silver, and the cool breeze is swishing. (To be continued.) )
