After being kicked out of the wing by Lin Huayin. Xiao Zheng was strolling through this moonlit temple with a cigarette in his mouth. The mood is particularly ethereal. It seems that I really have a sense of enlightenment baptized by Buddhism.
The temple is not big. It only takes a few minutes to wander around. Xiao Zheng, who suffers from mild ADHD, came to the front door after watching the temple. After seeing the front door, go back to the back mountain. Then he stamped his feet at the mountain gate. Smoking a cigarette and watching Li Jing stand on the hillside and take action.
Li Jing is indeed a master of concealment. One punch and one kick. It seems as soft as a palace maid dancing. But Xiao Zheng could see it. Li Jingruo struck with all his strength. Even if it's myself. They may not dare to confront each other head-on. You need to avoid its sharp edges.
But she was willing to follow Ye Yuhua for many years. It can be seen that the two have a deep relationship.
Li Jing's appearance is not outstanding. Let's look at it from a man who doesn't have outstanding eyesight. She is just an ordinary monk who eats fast and chants Buddha's name. Not like my mother-in-law. Even wearing green clothes. He also has an outstanding temperament. A beautiful face that makes your eyes shine.
Maybe he was aware of Xiao Zheng's existence. Li Jing quickly stopped her actions. Turn around slowly. Xiang Xiao Zheng nodded lightly: "I'm still up so late."
"Is it too late?" Xiao Zheng took a puff of cigarette. I glanced at the lights under the mountains. Dense as beans. Out of reach. "In normal times, your lady doesn't even get off work. I'm still eating and drinking with a bunch of friends."
Li Jing smiled lightly. There was an obvious look of trance in his eyes.
yes.
It's only eight o'clock in the evening. In a bustling and noisy city. It's the time when the lanterns are first lit. Especially tonight. I'm afraid no one will fall asleep before twelve o'clock. Even if you sleep. I'm afraid I will be awakened by the intensive sound of firecrackers.
Li Jing has lived here for more than 20 years. I have long forgotten the life under the mountain. Go to bed at nine o'clock every night. Get up at four in the morning. Twenty years are like one day. More precise than a machine. How to know. For Xiao Zheng at this moment. It was really too early.
"I forgot that you just went up the mountain today." Li Jing smiled slightly. He nodded.
Xiao Zheng didn't mind either. He nodded and said: "Aunt Jing. With your skills, you must have been a famous figure in Yanjing back then."
Li Jing's strength may not be as good as Bai Emperor Bai Wuxia's. But let Xiao Zheng judge the strength of Li Jing and Tina. It's really difficult.
You can tell. Although Li Jing has lived in seclusion here for more than 20 years. But never slacked off. The strength will only reach a higher level than it was twenty years ago.
"I'm just a maid from the Ye family. How can I be a big shot?" Li Jing said with a smile. "On the contrary, it's you. You are a great person now. Even the senior sister praises you frequently."
Xiao Zheng scratched his head and said with a smile: "This is asking the mother-in-law to look at her son-in-law. The more she looks at her, the more pleasing she becomes. It's not like I really have any ability."
Li Jing shook her head with a smile: "Even if the mother-in-law looks at a son-in-law, he must be a son-in-law that is pleasing to the eye. Otherwise, it will only become more and more unpleasant to the eyes."
Compared with Ye Yuhua's Buddha nature. Li Jing is obviously closer to the temperament of ordinary people. Whether it is words or deeds. None of them are as quiet and wise as Ye Yuhua. But she has been following Ye Yuhua to cultivate her moral character for more than 20 years. Presumably the edges and corners on his body have also been worn away a lot. Boring left and right. Xiao Zheng couldn't help but ask: "Aunt Jing. Although I don't believe in Buddhism, I have always been interested in Buddhism. Can you tell me a few stories about Buddhism?"
Li Jing also knew in her heart that Xiao Zheng was very boring at the moment. Nor refuse. Smiled and said: "Yes. As long as you don't think my words are superficial. There is no Zen feeling."
"The simpler, the better. It's too profound and I can't understand it." Xiao Zheng sat cross-legged. Sitting under a crooked-neck tree on the side of a hillside.
Li Jing has been studying Buddhism and Zen meditation with Ye Yuhua for decades. Even though my heart has already calmed down. But nature is nature. Want her to learn from Ye Yuhua's great perseverance and wisdom. That's definitely not possible. Now there is a fresh and interesting young man chatting with her. Of course I like it.
Slowly sit under the crooked neck tree. Facing the bright moonlight. A warm smile appeared on Li Jing's face. He said with a peaceful face: "Azheng. Even if you don't know much about Buddhism, you must have heard the saying of taking refuge in the Three Jewels."
"Definitely." Xiao Zheng nodded with a smile. "The old monk in the TV and movie came to say that he would take refuge in the Three Jewels. But what exactly is the Three Jewels? I don't quite understand."
Li Jing smiled slightly. He said slowly: "I will tell you a little story. You will understand."
Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "Aunt Jing, please tell me quickly."
Li Jing paused. He said softly: "Once upon a time, there was an old monk who was always cared for by thieves. He finally couldn't bear it anymore. One day, the thief came again. He said to the thief: Please put your hand through the crack in the door. You Whatever you want, I will give you whatever you want. The thief was very happy after hearing this. He put his hand in through the crack of the door. Unexpectedly, the old monk grabbed his hand and tied him to a pillar. Then he used Beat him with a stick. While beating him, he shouted: Strange Buddha. Take refuge in the Dharma. Take refuge in the Sangha. The thief was in great pain. He helplessly shouted: Take refuge in the Buddha. Take refuge in the Dharma. Take refuge in the Sangha. This is the famous three refuges in the Buddhist scriptures. Story. This is what people often call taking refuge in the Three Jewels."
Xiao Zheng listened quietly to Li Jing's story about the Three Refuges. A subtle emotion arose in my heart. He asked softly: "Is the Buddha you cultivate the same as the Buddha that monks cultivate? This story is about the Buddha of monks."
This has been Xiao Zheng's doubts all along.
"Buddhism in the world. To save all sentient beings. Naturally, it's the same." Li Jing smiled slightly. His expression was gentle. "It's just this story. But it's not what I saw in Buddhist scriptures."
"Where did you know that?" Xiao Zheng asked curiously.
"No." Li Jing raised her hand. Pointing to a cliff at the bottom of the mountain.
On top of the cliff. There is a small cabin. In the cabin. There lived an old monk who had lived in seclusion for many years. This monk. Famous. No. Bai Di. There is a dragon on him.
"Uncle Bai told the story." Xiao Zheng frowned slightly. asked slowly.
"Yeah." Li Jing smiled and nodded. "This is what he talked about when he and his senior sister discussed scriptures for the first time. It was under this locust tree."
Xiao Zheng heard this. He couldn't help but slowly retract his gaze. Then look up. I took a look at the almost withered old locust tree. A meaningful bitter smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
Think back to those days. The supreme King of Baicheng had his own way. Climb the unknown Fengming Mountain. Perched on the mountainside. Become a Buddha immediately. Just to keep company with the phoenix on the mountaintop discussing sutras.
That year. That day. He told a story about the Three Refuges. But those are the three refuges in the Buddhist scriptures. But it's not his.
"Take refuge in Buddha. Take refuge in Dharma. Take refuge in...Ye Yuhua." Xiao Zheng murmured to himself. The voice is deep. "These are the three refuges in his heart."
