A muffled "bang" sound was heard!
Just when Shen Luo hesitated, the incense burner in Zhan Guo's hand had already smashed down on Chaner's head.
However, his body was shaking and his hands were unstable, so the blow did not hit Zener's head directly, but instead hit the corner of his eyebrow and hit the floor behind him, then bounced up suddenly and fell to the side.
There was a cut on the corner of Chaner's eyebrow, and blood mixed with incense ash stained half of his cheek.
Shen Luo's heart tightened, but when he saw that Chaner never frowned during the whole process, he felt a little relieved and resisted the urge to push the door open.
After Zhan Guo smashed the incense burner, he started to smash things in the house like a madman, knocking over all the furnishings in the house, and even pulling off the curtains between the beds and tearing them into pieces.
After making a mess in the room, he rushed back and punched and kicked Zener until he was exhausted after a while, then he collapsed again on the mat opposite Zener and gradually calmed down.
Zener's face and body were covered with bruises at this time, and half of his cheek was covered with blood. His entire cheek was half clean, half dirty, half pale, and half black, making him look like a hermaphrodite.
When Zhan Guo finally calmed down, he slowly opened his eyes. There was a faint gleam in his eyes, which were extremely peaceful, without any trace of blame or anger.
He nodded at Shen Luo, indicating that he was fine, then slowly closed his eyes and continued to recite scriptures.
Shen Luo watched for a while, and when he saw that Zhan Guo was no longer committing violence, he felt relieved and slowly withdrew his gaze.
But this time, he did not continue to meditate. Instead, he leaned lightly against the door and listened quietly to Zener chanting scriptures.
Unexpectedly, the wait lasted for three days and three nights.
It was not until the evening of the third day that the sound of the wooden fish that had lasted for three days finally stopped, and Zener's chanting also stopped. Suddenly, a warm white light appeared in the house, shining through the crack in the door.
Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian immediately moved closer to the crack in the door and looked inside carefully.
I saw Zener in the room, his face was as pale as paper, but there was a white light shining from inside his clothes, forming a blurry halo around his body, making him look like Buddha.
"This is... Buddha's light!" Bai Xiaotian said in surprise.
Shen Luo noticed that Zhan Guo, who had been sitting opposite him with his head down, suddenly raised his head and put his messy hair behind his head with both hands. His face looked calm and his eyes were no longer as dull as before.
He knelt down on the mat and bowed three times to Chaner.
"Master, I am no longer obsessed with the debate between good and evil, but I still have doubts in my heart. I hope you can enlighten me." Zhan Guo said in a hoarse voice.
"Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha instantly. The 'butcher knife' here does not refer only to the blade of killing, but to the obsessions that are associated with the three thousand troubles. The four elements are empty. What is emptiness? It does not mean the non-existence of things, but the non-existence of the mind. Only when you truly let go of your obsessions, can you truly practice Zen." Zener spoke slowly.
"Master, are you saying that if evil people give up the sin of killing, they can become Buddhas? But good people don't have the sin of killing, so how can they give it up?" Zhan Guo asked again.
