(Caption: There is such a story.) There is an old fairy who came to a mountain village, and the villagers asked the fairy for a spell to turn stones into gold. The immortal did not shirk and taught the villagers the art of turning stones into alchemy. After teaching the spell, he pointed to the small hillside outside the entrance of the village and said, "When you use the magic of turning stones into gold, you must remember that you must not think of the sheep on the hillside! "What is the result? I don't say that you can guess that none of the villagers can do it. The sheep on the hillside is actually a pass in the cultivation of the human heart. ）

The more you tell yourself not to think about it, the more it tries to drill into your head. Some people you tell yourself not to look at her, but she is like a magnet that catches your eye. The more I didn't want to look at her, the more I couldn't help but look back at her. Because while telling myself "don't look at her", I am actually constantly reminding myself that there is such a person. This reason is very simple, but unfortunately I didn't understand it at the time, and the gentleman didn't tell me. I later suspected that he might have done it on purpose.

The mysterious little girl always appeared at dusk, and I always had to meet her every night when I walked into the classroom during self-study. The existence of this little girl seems to have a relationship with me alone, and I even have the illusion that she exists because of me. Her face was pale, her eyes were dazed, she didn't know what she was thinking, she just sat there, and everything around her seemed to have nothing to do with her. Looking at her pitiful appearance, I sometimes think of my own sister, who is the same age as her. My sympathy finally flooded and I wanted to help her, I wanted to know where she came from, what she came here for, but I didn't know how to start.

On this day's evening self-study, I came very early, and there was no one else in the classroom. Of course, I'm not the first, because "she" is already sitting there. Out of an unknown impulse, I forgot the Wind Gentleman's admonition, walked over to her, and said, "Little sister, why are you here?...... How can I help with anything?...... Can you hear me?......"

No matter how much I tried to communicate with her, the little girl didn't respond, and I plucked up the courage to pat her on the shoulder. Before I could stretch out my hand, a voice came from behind me: "You are a color body, she is a bardo body, don't bother to work hard, it's useless! Didn't the wind gentleman tell you?" Turning around, Shang Yunfei walked into the classroom at some point, and he saw my puzzled look, and continued: "Do you have an innate retribution, and you are still not satisfied? Do you want to learn from those ignorant witches and gods? ”

"Yunfei, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word?"

"I don't understand, why doesn't the gentleman tell you anything? Forget it, don't ask me, everything has karma, you can do whatever you love. I wanted to ask something more, but Yunfei sat down after finishing speaking, and at this time, the other students had already walked into the classroom.

......

After self-study, I didn't go back to the dormitory directly, but chased out of the west gate and stopped the gentleman who was going home. When the Wind Gentleman saw me calling him, he turned around and asked, "Ishino, why don't you go back to sleep and find me?" Or is it because of that ghost? I have already told you to leave her alone. ”

A little tired from trotting all the way, I gasped and said, "No, no, I want to ask you a few nouns." What do you mean by the color body, the bardo body, the newspaper pass, and the ghost pass?"

Feng Junzi's expression changed: "Shang Yunfei told you that, right?

Feng Junzi said that Shang Yunfei was a little kid, but I forgot that he himself was one year younger than Yunfei, I thought so in my heart, but I didn't dare to say this: "It was Yunfei who told me, but he didn't explain it to me, I was curious, can I ask you." ”

Wind Gentleman: "Then you told me all the original words of Yun Fei, how did he mention this?"

I relayed Yun Fei's words, and after listening to it, the Feng Junzi seemed a little unhappy: "I thought that those doorways could be enlightened, claiming not to seek supernatural powers, but in fact, I pay more attention to supernatural powers than anyone else. ”

I still didn't understand the words of the Wind Gentleman, so I asked carefully, "What the hell is going on?

Feng Junzi replied: "Buddhists say that they don't preach supernatural powers, but they talk about supernatural powers in more detail than anyone else in the scriptures. Have you ever heard of five eyes and six links?"

"Haven't heard of it. ”

"That's what Buddhism says. The five eyes refer to the naked eye, the heavenly eye, the wisdom eye, the Dharma eye, and the Buddha's eye, and the six links refer to the eye pass, the ear pass, the heart pass, the life pass, the divine realm pass, and the leakage pass. The naked eye is the eyes of ordinary people, but it is different, it means that the eyes are clear and can see all the subtleties, the eye is different from the naked eye, it is three-dimensional, three-dimensional, you know?......"

I nodded, and I had learned solid geometry anyway. Feng Junzi continued: "The eye of heaven can not only see the world in front of you, but also see the extreme distance and the nearest, and cultivate to the extreme, as long as there is something in the world, you can see it, no matter where it is. The discerning eye is different from the heavenly eye, it adds a dimension of time to the three-dimensional space, and can see the past and the future, but the discerning eye sees the past and the future, but cannot see through cause and effect, so it cannot change anything. As the saying goes, the Dharma eye is like a torch, which can illuminate all ignorance and turn things around according to the situation. These are all eye passes, so you should be able to understand the ear communication among the six links. Xintong is also called Xintong, which refers to being able to peek into people's hearts. As for fate, it is a superstitious statement, Buddhism has the theory of reincarnation, and the fate of the mind is similar to the discerning eye, but there are differences, the discerning eye emphasizes the ability to know the past, the future, the fate of the pass, and emphasizes the cycle of cause and effect......"

"What do you say? Superstitious statement?" Hearing this, I couldn't help but interrupt when the gentleman said that the supernatural powers actually said that the supernatural powers were superstitious, and the implication of the words was that the other supernatural powers were not superstitions? Why are the other supernatural powers not superstitious, but superstitious? I was puzzled.

"Don't interrupt, listen to what I'm talking about! There is also a divine realm pass in the six passes, which is very wonderful, and contains a lot of content, such as disappearing here and appearing there, this is actually a retreat technique...... In short, most of what the immortals in Chinese myths and legends can do is in the divine realm. Ishino, am I missing something?"

I nodded: "Feng Junzi, you didn't talk about the Buddha's eye and leakage just now. ”

Feng Junzi also nodded and said, "I really didn't talk about this glance, because I always suspected that the Buddha's eye and the leaky pass were made up at all! The Buddha's eye is above the Dharma Eye, and above the Divine Realm, the immortals will never be able to compare to the Buddha's magical powers!*** One day, when I am happy, I will also write a scripture to make him have seven eyes and eight links, and add a divine eye and fairy eye on top of the Buddha's eye, and the fairy eye ......"

Feng Junzi's words were entangled, and I had to interrupt again: "Feng Junzi, your scriptures are slowly being written, but you haven't told me what is called the color body, the bardo body, the newspaper pass, and the ghost pass." ”

Wind Gentleman: "The color body refers to the human body, you can pat yourself to know it." Buddhists say that this is a stinky skin, and they don't take it seriously, but the human body in the Dan Dao is the innate furnace and the foundation of cultivation. I don't know much about the bardo body, I don't know what it says, I said the bardo body, I said that the yin god is a ghost in your opinion! As I just said, supernatural powers refer to classification, so there is another kind of supernatural powers that Buddhism talks about, and according to the source, there are five kinds of teleportation: newspaper communication, cultivation communication, Yitong, demon communication, and ghost communication. Baotong refers to the innate supernatural powers, for example, in your case, the Buddhists talk about reincarnation, thinking that they are born with supernatural powers, which is the karmic retribution of the previous life, so it is called Baotong. Cultivation refers to the supernatural powers obtained by cultivating according to various techniques. Yitong is a supernatural power obtained by various means or props, emphasizing the use of external objects or rituals, which is probably not easy to understand. Think about it, there are a lot of fortune tellers on the west side of the Phoenix Bridge, if you can't calculate it accurately, it's a lie, if it's accurate, it's Yitong. As for the demon and ghost passes, they are obtained with the help of demons and monsters, and many people are possessed by demons or ghosts, or communicate with them...... Ishino, do you understand?"

I was listening to the fascination when the gentleman suddenly called me, and I quickly replied, "I understand, but why is it superstition?"

Feng Junzi sneered: "Have you heard of the six realms of reincarnation? ”

"Haven't heard of it. ”

Wind Gentleman: "The six realms refer to humanity, the path of asuras, the path of hungry ghosts, the path of hell, the path of animals, and the path of heaven. The Heavenly Humanity in the Six Realms is actually about the gods and goddesses in Chinese mythology. However, the Buddha in Buddhism jumped out of the six realms and did not enter reincarnation, while heaven and man have five decays, and sooner or later they will end up, no different from animals. Although it is said that all beings are equal, they are not animals!"

Hearing this, I finally understood a little bit that there seemed to be a bit of a gateway between Fengjunzi and Shang Yunfei, or it was an "academic dispute". If there is any argument between them, I can't interject, and I don't dare to go back and tell Yunfei what he said. I asked again, "So are all the supernatural powers you just said true?"

Feng Junzi smiled: "Those are all sayings in Buddhism." In fact, how can the supernatural powers be so dogmatic, as the saying goes, the Tao is boundless, and there are only five eyes and six links. Since you asked me today, I'll open your eyes, did you see that stone?"

The Wind Gentleman asked me as he pointed to a cyan stone on the side of the road, and I nodded. He suddenly grabbed my hand and whispered, "Use it with supernatural powers." I felt a slump all over my body. Suddenly, the stone jumped twice on the ground as if it were alive, and then flew up into the air with a flick of it, and flew diagonally, and the Wind Gentleman stretched out his other hand to catch it.

"I don't have the Qing Ying Mirror, so I'll use this stone as a magic weapon. Feng Junzi muttered to himself, put the bluestone in his pocket, turned to me, and said to me: "See clearly, this is the Taoist 'imperial object' spell, what kind of magic power do you say it is?"

"Wow, that's amazing, can you teach me?"

"Actually, you can do it, you just don't know how to do it. Teaching you this now is no different from teaching you about chronic suicide. Spells all require the consumption of mana, or the innate vitality of people like you, in fact, if you think about it carefully, it is not magical at all, and it is even superfluous, and it is dispensable. ”

"Why?"

The Wind Gentleman walked to the side of the road and gently picked up another stone: "If you want to pick a stone, just walk over and pick it up, but if you have to perform the magic of the Imperial Object, it consumes a thousand times the energy." Besides, to be able to practice the Dao Fa to this point, there are not a few out of 100,000 people, and the vast majority of people will not be able to have this state in their entire lives, and even if some people reach this level, they will probably need to practice penance for a hundred years. Wouldn't it be ridiculous if the stones in the world were chosen like this! Wouldn't it be ridiculous for the Buddhists not to preach supernatural powers, but in fact they have their reasons?"

......

Shang Yunfei's words, I didn't understand the words of the Wind Gentleman, I understood at first, and then I was confused. Picking a stone from the ground requires penance, and there is no one in a hundred years! So how old is the Wind Gentleman this year? He is only a teenager! Although the Wind Gentleman said that the supernatural powers are not magical, and even if they are not available, I still hope that I can choose a stone like him, but unfortunately he is unwilling to teach me. When I went to bed at night, I was thinking about it all the time, and I gradually fell asleep in my thoughts.

I had a dream. I dreamed that I was standing on a high platform waving my hands. As my hands waved, the sky in front of me was full of colorful stones. Take a closer look, it turns out that these stones are not flying around, but controlled by my hands, and my mind is everywhere, these colored stones are flying in various arcs in the air like butterflies through flowers. I was glad in my heart, and all of a sudden, the stones were out of control, and they were all coming at me. I woke up in shock.

It turned out to be a dream. I think the air in the dormitory is very stuffy and oppressive. Everyone else was asleep, no one noticed me, I woke up from my dream, I put on my clothes and walked out in a daze. The quiet moonlight in the hallway shone in through the window, and I looked up to see that it was a full moon night. The full moon hung quietly in the sky, as if it was mysteriously calling me, and I followed the moonlight step by step out of the dormitory building and into the quiet campus.

I walked aimlessly and unconsciously walked to the front of the school building. This old building, built in 1955, lies there like a silent monster, and the windows are like black eyes. Is the little girl still there when the night is late? Does she feel scared when she is alone in this lonely night sky? Strange to say, I think of a "ghost" and would I feel scared, but I don't think of me, a "person", should I also be afraid?

I walked up the stairs, and the darkness at my feet echoed emptyly, the end of which was like a sigh in the distance. I walked to the classroom, pushed open the door, and looked in. The dry, hoarse voice of the wooden door was harsh in the silence. The little girl was still sitting in the classroom, and unexpectedly, the sound of the door opening alarmed her. As I looked through the door, she raised her dark eyes and looked at me, and asked in a timid voice, "Who are you?"

This woke me up, I sat up from the bed, and my head almost hit the board of the top bunk - it was still a dream! After waking up, it was still a dream, this was an experience I had never experienced before, and I even suspected that I was still in a dream, and the pain in my hand told me that I was really awake this time. I broke out in a cold sweat in the dark.

......

This dream is not the end but the beginning of another. From that day on, almost every night I would have the same dream: I would walk to the empty classroom, push the door open, and meet the eyes of the little girl, and hear her ask, "Who are you?"

Strangely, even though I have the same dream every day, I don't realize it's a dream when I'm in it. It was only when I woke up that I woke up suddenly, and it was this dream again, so I repeated this immersive torture over and over again. I have such a dream every day, and when I study at night, I see the silent girl every day. I may not feel anything for a day or two, but after a long time, I gradually feel a little dazed.

I started to feel low on energy, cold and dizzy and ugly when I sat there in class. The first person who showed my abnormality was not Shang Yunfei or Feng Junzi, our homeroom teacher, Teacher Liu. One day, during a self-study class, I was drowsy with my temples on my hands, and the words in the books in front of me became tadpoles swimming around. At this time, a gentle hand was placed on my forehead, and then I heard Mr. Liu's voice: "Ishino, what's wrong with you these days?

"No, nothing, I didn't sleep well last night, I'm a little sleepy today. I stammered in reply. I don't know why, among all the teachers, I was nervous when I saw Ms. Liu, I was very nervous! Not because she was strict with her students, on the contrary, she was the gentlest to students, nor because she paid special attention to me, I was just an ordinary student in the class who was not obtrusive. But the strange thing is that as soon as I stood in front of Mr. Liu, I was nervous, at a loss, and I couldn't speak. Maybe it's because she's our homeroom teacher, and the homeroom teachers I've met since I was a child are all very powerful.

Teacher Liu is very young, the youngest of all the senior class teachers, five years older than me, just graduated from the Chinese Department of Wucheng Normal University in the summer of 23 this year, teaching Chinese in the third and fourth classes of the first year of high school. Just after graduating from Normal University, you can teach in Wucheng Middle School, on the one hand, you must be a particularly excellent student in college, and on the other hand, you should have a certain relationship with your family. Of course, I don't know any of this, but my first impression of Ms. Liu is that she is unusually beautiful. Growing up in a mountain village, I didn't have any impression of the beauties in the city, and when I first saw Mr. Liu, I thought that the legendary beauty is like this, right? Although I am not young, I still have a poor concept of the opposite sex.

When Teacher Liu heard my words, he still insisted, "You have been like this for several days, haven't you been able to sleep well every day? ”

"No, there's nothing going on at home, it's really fine. ”

"Then you'd better come with me to the infirmary and have a look, it's not a bad thing, go, come with me. Teacher Liu's voice is gentle and pleasant, but there is also an irrefutable authority in the tone of his voice to the students. She grabbed my arm, and I involuntarily stood up and followed Teacher Liu to the school doctor's office. The school doctor didn't check out any problems, but told me to pay attention to rest and pay attention to nutrition. Teacher Liu still didn't feel at ease and told me: "If you still feel unwell, go to the city hospital to see if there is still ...... Don't be embarrassed to tell me if you have any problems at home. ”

When I came out of the infirmary, class had already ended, and after Mr. Liu left, I wanted to find Mr. Feng and talk to him about the things in my dream, but I met Shang Yunfei head-on. These two big people seem to me to be masters, and they hurriedly greeted Shang Yunfei and told him about my strange dreams in the last few days, and asked him to help explain them.

Yun Fei listened to my words, his face was as usual, he didn't feel particularly surprised, thought about it, and said to me: "You seem to have gone into an evil path, but it doesn't matter, as long as your heart is pure, there will be nothing wrong, don't think about it, don't think about it, and after a while, you will be fine." Since it's a dream, treat it as if it were a dream. ”

His answer still didn't reassure me, so I asked, "Is there a way to keep me from dreaming?"

Yun Fei didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "Do you want to be yourself, what can I do? You tell me the truth, do you really think that you don't want to have this dream, or something else?"

"Actually, what I want to know most is what the little girl in the dream wants to say to me? Unfortunately, every time I get there, I wake up. I lowered my head and finally told the truth.

Shang Yunfei: "That's right, this is where you are obsessed, and if you let it go, it's fine." Ordinary people can hold on to it, but you are born with retribution, and you can see the bardo realm in your dreams, but you don't know that self-nature and emptiness are the way to liberation, so you fall deeper and deeper. If you can't help it, I'll help you find the wind gentleman, and he broke it. ”
