Tai Xuan Jing

Chapter 193: Guiding the Maze

Monk Yu staggered away with a stick in his hand. Li Qianmo watched him disappear into the street, shook his head and sat down to continue drinking.

After drinking for a while, Li Qianmo got up to pay the bill, walked out of the restaurant, and wandered on the street. At this time, it was getting dusk, he found a small inn to stay. Although the conditions were simple, he was not picky about these. After entering the guest room, he went to bed and meditated It was already noon the next day when the exercises were completed.

He jumped out of bed to open the window to breathe, and found a large group of people not far from the street, who seemed to be fighting. He launched a spiritual investigation, and found that it was Monk Yu who was being beaten again. From the words of those people, it can be heard that Yu Yu The monk stole again.

Seeing this, Li Qianmo smiled wryly and shook his head, not intending to help him. Even if the master of the fourth level of the Dao is sealed, it is impossible for these mortals to hurt him.

After a long time, those people got tired from the beating, and they all spit at the foolish monk, cursing: "Hey, you are so old, you can stand a beating like a stone, and if I see you stealing again, I will break your legs! "

Those people left in a hurry after cursing. Monk Yu picked up two steamed buns and gnawed them vigorously in the face of everyone's eyes.

Li Qianmo was very confused when he saw it. He jumped out of the window to the street and strode up to Monk Yu. Just as Monk Yu stuffed the last piece of steamed bun into his mouth, he looked up and saw Li Qianmo. You."

"It's me again." Li Qianmo nodded and smiled lightly, and finally couldn't hold back his curiosity, and asked, "Master, since you want to find Buddhism, why do you want to steal things? Isn't there a precept in Buddhism? Stealing should be regarded as It's a big rule."

Monk Yu swallowed the steamed buns in his mouth, got up slowly and spat: "The precepts are nothing, if there is nothing to eat, a certain family will starve to death, if they die, what else can they find?" He paused, then said, "Besides , A certain family did not steal in vain, let them give them a beating after each steal, and they made money."

Li Qianmo was stunned and speechless, and looked at the foolish monk dumbfounded, feeling that although the old monk acted and spoke strangely, he seemed to contain supreme philosophy.

"Don't laugh." The foolish monk glared at him and continued, "Although there are sayings in the Buddha's words, all dharmas are empty, and the body is like a skin, but that is just the Buddha's idea. , then you must first ensure that you are alive, because only by living can there be hope, and if you die, everything is really empty, why should you entrust the burden of saving the world to others."

Li Qianmo nodded when he heard the words, convinced and praised: "The master really has a great opinion, which is completely different from the thoughts of ordinary monks, and the younger generation admires it."

"Here you come again." The foolish monk rolled his eyes angrily, and said, "Don't put a high hat on a certain family, a certain family knows how much they have, and they have been ascetic for thousands of years and still haven't realized the truth. Sakyamuni Buddha became enlightened only 50 years after he entered the mortal world, he learned the truth of Buddhism, and became a generation of Buddhas, alas, there are too many differences, too many differences." He kept shaking his head and sighing to himself after speaking.

When Li Qianmo heard that he practiced asceticism for thousands of years, he suddenly remembered a saying, and asked, "Master Yu, I heard that there were originally two great monks in Jialan Temple, one is the current abbot of Guankong, and the other is his elder brother." Master Guanming, but he suddenly left Jialan Temple 1000 years ago and has not been heard from again. Many people think he has passed away, and I don’t know if it is you."

The monk Yu raised his head and looked up at the sky, his expression was a little lonely, and after a long time he sighed: "It's been 1000 years, and a certain family has no harvest. It's a pity, a pity." After speaking, he shook his head and sighed again.

His appearance was a default, and Li Qianmo was very pleasantly surprised. He never thought that he would meet a famous eminent monk from all over the world when he was wandering around. He was really lucky.

Guan Ming was famous all over the world 1000 years ago, and his wisdom was incomparable. He once gave many masters advice and resolved their inner demons. I'm lucky, I have a lot of confusion in my heart, and I want to ask the master to give me some advice."

"Guess what, a certain family needs someone to give advice." Monk Yu rolled his eyes angrily, turned around and left with a cane.

Li Qianmo rushed to catch up and chased beside him, saying: "Master, I am really at a loss and need your advice."

Monk Yu continued to move forward without turning his head, and said: "I know my own heart best, why do I need someone to point me out, I just think about it myself."

Li Qianmo didn't want to give up, and kept following him. Monk Yu walked for a while, then stopped suddenly, turned his head and said, "Why do you follow a certain family?"

Li Qianmo cupped his hands and said, "I beg Master to give me some guidance."

The foolish monk babbled helplessly, and said, "Follow as you like." After saying that, he leaned on his stick and continued to walk forward.

Li Qianmo drove up again.

Monk Yu walked out of the town and headed west. Li Qianmo followed him and asked, "Where are you going, Master?"

"Desert." Monk Yu said lightly, stopped talking, and walked straight forward.

The two had good feet, and they entered the desert that night, and as far as the eye could see, it was golden.

It was extremely cold in the desert at night. Monk Yu was tired from walking, so he sat down beside some camel thorns and Li Qianmo sat beside him.

"How long will Tan Yue stay with a certain family?" Monk Yu turned to look at Li Qianmo.

Li Qianmo smiled and said: "Whenever I get rid of the confusion in my heart, I will leave."

Guan Ming shook his head and continued to sit quietly with his eyes closed.

Li Qianmo looked at the haggard foolish monk, and at the endless desert, and asked curiously, "Master, what are you doing in the desert?"

"Looking for the suffering of the flesh." The foolish monk closed his eyes and replied.

"Oh, the master is an ascetic, I almost forgot." Li Qianmo smiled and took out a jug of wine to drink.

Smelling the aroma of wine, Monk Yu opened his eyes to look at Li Qianmo, licked his chapped lips, and asked, "Have you brought any water?"

"No." Li Qianmo shook his head, raised the jug in his hand, "There is only good wine, master?"

"Hey, just drink the bar when you drink." Guan Ming sighed softly, reached out to take the jug and drank with his head up.

Li Qianmo froze on the spot, he was just joking, but he didn't expect this monk to be so unruly and drink alcohol.

"Master, drinking alcohol is a violation of the rules." Li Qianmo reminded.

"A certain family knows." The monk Yu said, took a breath and drank the wine again. After two sips, he finally had enough, handed the wine back to Li Qianmo, and said, "If you have wine in your heart, you drink it. If you don't have wine in your heart, It's the same as anything you drink."

"There is no wine in your heart?" Li Qianmo was startled when he heard the words, and muttered to savor his words, feeling that there seemed to be a supreme mystery hidden in these words, but he couldn't understand them for a while.

Seeing him frowning and thinking hard, Guan Ming couldn't help sighing: "Forget it, if you have any confusion, tell me everything, and a certain family will give you a detailed explanation."

"Ah, thank you, Master!" Li Qianmo was overjoyed upon hearing the words, and said after clearing his mind, "I had sex with a senior sister named Kong about ten years ago."

"Ah?" Guan Ming didn't expect him to say such words when he opened his mouth, he cried out in shock, and stared at him dumbfounded.

Li Qianmo also found himself speaking abruptly, felt embarrassed, scratched his head in embarrassment, not knowing what to say.

"It's okay, let's continue." Monk Yu put away his surprise and waved him to continue.

Li Qianmo nodded and continued: "Just a few months ago, I had another relationship like this with a girl named Fan."

"Ah!" Monk Yu really didn't expect his second sentence to be about this, and he screamed again, staring at Li Qianmo dumbfounded.

Li Qianmo also felt that he was a bit absurd, so he turned his head away in embarrassment.

Monk Yu babbled, and said helplessly: "Forget it, you continue to talk."

Li Qianmo nodded: "Actually..."

"Wait!" Guan Ming suddenly raised his hand to stop him.

"What's the matter, Master?" Li Qianmo asked puzzled.

Guan Ming smiled lightly, and said: "How many women did Tan Yue have such a relationship with, let's just tell them all."

Li Qianmo hurriedly waved his hands: "No more, just two!"

"Oh, that's good, let's continue." Guan Ming nodded, letting him continue.

Li Qianmo pondered for a moment, then said frowningly: "Actually, after what happened to Senior Sister Kong, I made a promise for three lives. I also miss her all the time, and I never forget her. Such a thing is really not what I want, now I don't know how to face Senior Sister Kong, and I don't know how to face Miss Fan, so I ask Master for some advice."

Monk Yu stroked his white beard lightly after listening, as if he was meditating, and after a long time, he said slowly: "Tan Yue is the first person to ask such a stupid question to a certain family."

Embarrassed by the words, Li Qianmo bowed her hands in apologetic blushing: "Master taught me the lesson."

Monk Yu got up slowly, leaning on a wooden stick, walked slowly towards the bright moon, and said lightly: "In fact, this family doesn't understand love, and they don't want to understand, but this family still knows a thing or two about the original heart."

Li Qianmo followed him and listened attentively without saying a word.

The monk Yu continued: "Cultivating the Tao is to cultivate the mind, otherwise a certain family would not leave a good temple and go out to practice asceticism to seek the heart of truth. The same is true for the love between men and women. Only when we treat each other sincerely can we plant Bodhisattva, witnessing the years, can only produce prajna flowers." He stopped here, turned around and looked at Li Qianmo with a smile, which was very meaningful.

Li Qianmo bowed his head when he heard the words and murmured: "If I follow my heart, then I will continue to abide by the agreement with Senior Sister Kong and not tell her about it. However, let me abandon the bell, and the bell will go crazy. He is not in a good mind." ..."

He raised his head and saw Guan Ming smiling and shaking his head, he couldn't help being taken aback, and asked in puzzlement, "Isn't that what Master meant?"

"That's the meaning of a certain family." Guan Ming smiled lightly, and suddenly turned around, "It's just that Tan Yue has a relationship with two women. This can't be resolved with sincerity. No matter which side Tan Yue chooses, someone will get hurt. , What Tan Yue has to do is to choose one, so that the other party will suffer the least damage."

"Then what should we do?" Li Qianmo asked anxiously.

Guan Ming shook his head and smiled lightly: "A certain family doesn't know. A certain family planted a bodhi seed. As for whether it can bloom a prajna flower, it all depends on Tanyue yourself." Stepping away, he said in a loud voice, "Tan Yue is a man of temperament. One last warning from a certain family is that love is a thing that hurts people a lot. You can drink it lightly, but don't be angry. Otherwise, you will harm others and yourself. Remember it."

When he finished his words, he was already ten feet away, and the moonlight made his bald head shine brightly, and a singing voice came from afar: "All conditioned dharmas are like dreams and bubbles, like dew and like lightning, and should be viewed in this way..."
