Chapter 102: The Cloth Bag Statement
Wu Ge has been a little annoyed for the past two days, because he really doesn't know what to do.
Because of Lu Ying's matter, he is a little lazy to cultivate; fight with Bobo, compared to his state, Bobo is a little too crazy and a little frightened; let's talk to Master Qingyun, but he is afraid that people will talk to him about philosophy; Cheng Yingxia's old thing makes him feel aggrieved - and recently, his mother has been urging him to review his homework and prepare to take the college entrance examination again...... Thinking about it, there is nothing in this world that makes him worry, and there is nothing worth fighting for. He himself felt that his recent state was worthy of alarm, because he had nothing to do, and he loved to stand on the edge of the cliff outside the fairy world and look down, as if there was a new world full of temptations - such as Avatar - down there.
On the edge of the red maple forest, he met the Budai monk.
"Hmm, isn't this Wu Ge?
The cloth bag monk took the initiative to say hello.
"Well, it's not busy. Wu Ge said.
"Isn't your spirit very good?" Monk Budai looked at Wu Ge.
"What's bothering?"
"I didn't ...... Well, it's not a big deal. Wu Ge knew that he couldn't hide it, and he was afraid that the Budai monk would look at the top of his head, so he hurriedly wanted to say something else.
"It's just that I've encountered a little trouble in my cultivation. He finally said.
The cloth bag monk smiled. He patted Wu Ge on the shoulder and said:
"Don't worry, we're not going to look at people's heads and be rude like that. As for your three masters...... That's because you're their apprentice. But you're out of school now, aren't you?"
......
Wu Ge was a little speechless - you don't just look at the top of other people's heads, so how do you know that I'm afraid of you?
"What a small trouble. Maybe I can help you. Monk Budai asked enthusiastically.
"Uh...... That is...... Ah, by the way, the six senses are connected. You know that, right?"
"Hmm. β
The cloth bag monk nodded.
"That...... Well, after the six senses are connected, uh...... There are some side effects. β
"Side effects?"
"Yes. In other words...... You'll see things you shouldn't see, or don't want to see......"
The cloth bag monk rolled his eyes upward.
"You mean...... A woman's body?" he asked.
"Uh, yes...... But that's not all. Wu Ge declared.
"Does that make you feel immoral?"
β...... Sort of. But ......"
"So you're upset?"
"Right...... Actually......"
"Because you're a virgin and haven't experienced it yet?"
"Yes and no...... I mean, that's not the point. Wu Ge protested, feeling his scalp tighten for a while (where did he see the word "virgin"?) "Although I ...... I haven't experienced it, but I know what it's like - it's not like I haven't seen an A-movie. I don't have any moral anxieties, I just feel ...... Uh, it affects the practice. β
There was silence.
"What is an A-movie?" asked the cloth bag monk.
......
Wu Ge scratched his head.
"How long has it been since you left the Immortal Realm?" he finally asked.
"I just went out with the old monkey a month ago, and it was really eye-opening. Budai said. "But I haven't heard of the ...... you said."
"Then do you know the Spring Palace?"
"Then I do. β
"A movie is a continuous, moving, real-life spring palace. β
"Continuous, real person?"
The two eyes of the cloth bag monk rolled up, but he was not looking at the top of Wu Ge's head, but pondering.
"The old monkey showed me what it was...... Movie. Are you talking about ......?"
Wu Ge breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, that's it. He said. "Spring Palace Movie. β
"It's like that "Lust Caution"?"
"Uh...... Right. β
Wu Ge originally wanted to tell the Budai monk that "Lust and Caution" is far from being a movie. But...... It is really painful to popularize modern common sense to the gods, and it is better not to ask for hardship.
......
"What are you still looking at...... Can the round light above my head broadcast an A-movie?" Wu Ge quipped.
"Not really. Monk Budai admitted. "Actually, I'm just groping ...... right now"
"Let's explore it later...... You also said that it is rude to look at the top of people's heads. Wu Ge prompted.
"Uh, yes...... I don't have the intention, don't mind. β
The cloth bag monk was a little embarrassed.
Hmph, I've seen duplicity, I've never seen such blatant duplicity! Wu Ge muttered in his heart.
"I understand when you say that. The Budai monk looked away and said, "You can do this, it's actually easy to do." The monk mentioned to me a Buddhist scripture, which was very profound......"
"I don't have much interest in religion. Wu Ge said with a stiff face.
"Oh, then you can also learn to learn to turn a blind eye......
"I understand that color is emptiness. Wu Ge sighed and said.
"Either you try to accept and admit that you are not a sage......"
"But I never thought so?"
"If it doesn't work, you just turn it off......"
β...... What, can it be turned off?"
"Of course. The vast majority of spells are retractable and replaceable, and can be opened and closed. β
......
"A dead old monk!"
Wu Ge gritted his teeth and scolded in a low voice. It's a Buddhist scripture and a blind eye, and it's such a big detour with you...... That old guy just won't tell you you can turn it off!
"What did you just say?" asked the cloth bag monk.
"Uh, I ...... I'm sorry Master, I'm not scolding you. β
"I understand. Just look at the top of your head. The cloth bag monk said succinctly.
Wu Ge......
"Actually, I don't blame your master for this. Budai monk said. "Escaping is never helpful, and practitioners always have to get through it. What's more, the communication of the six senses has a great effect on the exercise of the practitioner's body and mind, and ordinary people cannot ask for this kind of supernatural power...... Your master told you about this, right?"
"Yes. β
"At this stage, many practitioners move to live in the mountains and forests in order to protect themselves from the troubles of mundane thoughtsβthis is indeed a solution. But I want to tell you that all cultivators who eventually become immortals choose to spend this stage in the mundane world. β
"Oh?"
Wu Ge touched his chin and realized.
"The mundane world can be said to be indispensable to immortals. Budai said with emotion. "Because in the end, cultivation is actually cultivating one's own mind. If you want to cultivate your mind, you have to live in the world, through worldly things, and in this way, you can know and face everything in your heart...... What else can people who can't even face their own hearts?"
"That'...... What does the master mean to say, I shouldn't be closed?" Wu Ge asked tentatively.
"If you feel the need to turn it off, then you can't turn it off, and if you don't think it's necessary, then you can turn it off. β
The Budai monk said something quite Zen.
Wu Ge actually understood.
"Teach me mantras...... I don't think there's any need to turn it off. β
