"What kind of practice is this?"
Fang Xing almost gritted his teeth with hatred, but his palm was still frozen in the air, and he didn't continue to press it down.
He also knows that many practices need to endure endless pain, which cannot be interrupted casually...
More importantly, from Shenxiu's voice, he heard a bitterness that he had never heard before. Although it was faint and hard to detect, he felt it keenly, which made his heart move slightly, and he couldn't bear to touch it. After going down, he couldn't figure out what kind of experience it was that would make a person like Shenxiu, who was born with a clear heart, have such despair...
"Brother, I have already been to the Buddhist world..."
Seeing Fang Xing stopped, Shenxiu's expression also seemed a little relieved. After a pause, she raised her head to look into Fang Xing's eyes, and said softly: "I stepped into the star field through the Taoist fairy road, I didn’t follow the promise of the elders to enter the Dojo of the Masters, but I intend to enter the Buddhist world, look at the Buddhist relics of the past, and fulfill the agreement with Brother Huineng to rebuild Lingshan before he returns... "
"Then what?"
Fang Xing already knew that Shenxiu had not entered the Taoist dojo, but his later experience was unknown.
"I did enter the Buddha Realm, but found that there..."
Shenxiu looked a little hesitant, even more desperate, and after a slight pause, she still said, "There is nothing!"
"Um?"
Hearing this, Fang Xing couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and looked at Shenxiu with a surprised expression.
He already knew by now that even the Dragon Realm and the Demon Realm have corresponding inheritances left behind, and they are just waiting for successors.
The Buddhist world back then was stronger than the dragon world and the demon world, and it could almost faintly compete with Taoism, especially the Buddha Lord ten thousand years ago, who seemed to have anticipated the subsequent catastrophe, and thus left behind Buddhahood , Waiting for the opportunity of the twin Buddha's debate in order to continue the Buddhist inheritance, and since he can set up such a backhand in Tianyuandu, how can he not leave a legacy in the Buddhist world
"It's true, nothing..."
Shenxiu smiled wryly: "There are no scriptures, no Buddha treasures, not even a complete Buddha statue, even the sky and the earth are incomplete there, without any living beings, it is even more desolate than ordinary star fields, and there is no foundation at all. inherited… "
Fang Xing couldn't help being stunned for a moment: "Then how are you going to build the Lingshan again, and how are you going to lead the Buddhist sect through the catastrophe?"
"Yeah, what should I do?"
Shenxiu smiled wryly: "Even Buddhism will no longer exist, so how can I lead Buddhism through the catastrophe?"
Looking at Shenxiu's almost hopeless expression, Fang Xing couldn't help trembling in his heart. He saw that Shenxiu must also know the story that Old Fenghuang once told. Shenxiu's mission is to lead the Buddhist sect through the catastrophe, but now he is obviously not even qualified to board the ship again, so why is he going to survive the catastrophe
"I've been thinking about this for decades!"
Shenxiu sighed softly, and continued: "I also tried to do a lot of things, but in the end I still can't achieve anything, which makes me feel a kind of despair, and even at some point, I have already begun to doubt The arrangement of the Lord Buddha ten thousand years ago, I was thinking, is it true that I have no wisdom, is my reasoning wrong, I think that all Buddhism should start from the beginning, from all living beings, but I really faced it , but I don’t know how to start, perhaps, Senior Brother Hui Neng…”
I used to argue for ten generations and insisted on my own truth for thousands of years, but now I began to doubt...
Fang Xing also felt a little sad, realized the pain in Shenxiu's heart, couldn't help sighing, and comforted in a low voice: "Junior brother, even if you don't think of a way to revitalize Buddhism for a while, you don't have to marry in a fit of anger?" When I got here, I also felt a little absurd in my heart, and complained: "The key is that after you get married, you are not the boss, so you are only ranked one hundred and nine..."
"Brother, you laughed at me again..."
Shenxiu was also a little helpless: "It's not that I've moved my heart, it's just that in the past few decades, I have preached the Tao, taught the scriptures, tried to save the common people, and built temples, but in the end nothing was achieved. I finally had the Buddha obstacle, and I was almost muddled through the day, and then, finally, one day, I fell asleep under the bodhi tree and dreamed of a Buddha... "
"Huh? There are still saints alive in Buddhism?"
Fang Xing was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked hurriedly.
"It's not the enlightenment of Buddhist sages passing on dreams..."
Shenxiu shook her head lightly when she heard the words, and said, "I just remembered in my dream a story about the World Venerable Kinnara Bodhisattva 33,000 years ago in the Buddhist records, saying that Kinnara Bodhisattva once went to a magic place. Preaching, but that place has deep roots of demons, people have no Buddha nature, there is no way to spread it, and there are even demons incarnated as wicked people for ten generations, prostitutes for ten generations, and beggars for ten generations. All the Buddhas in the sky persuaded the Bodhisattva to go back to Lingshan, but Kinnara Bodhisattva couldn't bear to abandon the living beings here. The Buddha's heart became more determined. Since he was disturbed by demons, he preached from them. With great wisdom and immeasurable Buddha's heart, He transformed the evil people, prostitutes, and beggars of the ten generations transformed by the demon that disturbed his preaching, and finally kept the bodhi flowers blooming. After building temples and instigating living beings, Buddhism gradually prospered in that magical land, and Bodhisattvas also attained enlightenment and became Buddhas..."
Fang Xing listened very carefully, and at the end he was surprised and said, "I'm not married either..."
Shenxiu was speechless, and finally gave up the idea of explaining, and smiled softly: "After that dream, I finally got rid of the demonic barrier, and decided to follow the example of the predecessors and convert the demon heads of the six demon heavens, thinking of them as the foundation of Buddhism. Miss Mo Chi'er, the Lord of Ultimate Bliss, has once comprehended some Buddhist teachings, and she is also predestined for my Buddhism, so I chose her as the first one, hoping to convert her... "
"That's a world-renowned big devil, you can't even cross me, how can you have such great confidence to cross others?"
Fang Xing couldn't understand Shenxiu's thoughts, so he couldn't help laughing bitterly.
Having said that, Shenxiu's expression was a bit bitter, and she said, "Senior brother, I can't compare you with her..."
Fang Xing nodded and said, "Yes, I still have Buddha nature..."
Shenxiu continued with a wry smile: "... I think she has hope to be transformed!"
Fang Xing was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer these words, and his face was not very good-looking.
Shenxiu hurriedly said: "Look, she didn't kill me after meeting me for the first time, and she even told me a lot, so it shows that she has Buddha nature!"
"Pull it down, she probably just wants to see how good-looking you are..."
Fang Xing waved his hand directly, he really didn't want to talk to the young monk who had become very stupid now, he pondered for a while, and persuaded in a low voice: "Junior Brother, don't be so self-willed, come with me, don't stay here After suffering this crime, after you go out, if you want to build a temple, I will give you money, and if you want to find Buddhist disciples, I will have all my subordinates shave their heads and do whatever they want..."
Shenxiu looked up at Fang Xing: "Brother, can you become a Buddhist monk?"
Fang Xing choked suddenly: "It's too high..."
Shenxiu laughed immediately, as if she had guessed it a long time ago.
Fang Xing launched a ruthless attack: "Okay, okay, you want to transform the Lord of Bliss, right? Come with me, I'll help you!"
Shenxiu smiled wryly, "How can I help?"
Fang Xing sneered and said, "Simple, no matter whether this girl agrees or not, I will force her to become a monk with you!"
Shenxiu shook her head lightly, and said with a light smile, "Brother, if you want to convert her, you have to cut off the desire in her heart!"
Fang Xing sneered: "This is even simpler. Don't think that I don't understand. Isn't it just sex and emptiness? You chose this Lord of Paradise as the first object of transformation, is it because of her?" There are more men? Hehe, don't worry, after I go out with me, I will kill all her men immediately, so that she can be a monk if she can think about it... "
"Senior brother really has his reasons..."
Shenxiu laughed, and enduring the pain from the thorns, she raised her hand, pointed to her nose, and said, "But speaking of it this way, I am her last man, senior brother, do I want to kill myself as well?" kill it?"
"you… "
Fang Xing was a little dumbfounded: "... Isn't it too unreasonable?"
"Buddhism is not rational..."
Shenxiu smiled lightly, and then clasped his hands together. Although the thorns pierced deeper into his flesh with his movements, his expression was very calm, even peaceful, and he slowly moved towards Fang Xing. After giving a salute, he said: "Senior brother, I know you are thinking about me, but Shenxiu has dedicated himself to the Dharma, and his ambition is only to rebuild the Lingshan Mountain and lead the small Buddhist gate through the catastrophe. What are these small pains? Brother, you don’t have to worry about these things anymore. You are a man in the world of mortals, and you love to be carefree. Although I am a Buddhist protector, I can’t do it for my own selfishness. I beg you to always stay in the door. ah… "
"Why are they all like this?"
Fang Xing couldn't help but think of Ao Lielai. This long worm wanted to go his own way at the beginning, so he left his side to find his Dao Xin. Until now, life and death are uncertain. His heart is heavy...
"Then what else can I... help you with?"
After being silent for a long time, he couldn't help but speak softly, a little disappointed.
He really didn't want to see Shenxiu with thorns all over her body, but he also understood that it couldn't be stopped.
Shenxiu also seemed to think about it for a moment, then suddenly smiled lightly and said, "Brother...have you brought wine?"
Fang Xing was startled, nodded and said, "There are many!"
There was a smile on Shenxiu's face: "Then senior brother... can you give me a sip of wine?"
Fang Xing's heart was also moved. Looking at the smiling face of the little monk, he sighed softly, took out a wine gourd, unplugged it, mixed half a jar of Emperor's ointment into the wine, and then stretched out his hand into the brambles. Handed it to his mouth, fed him a sip!
Shenxiu actually just took a sip and stopped drinking.
He closed his eyes slightly, as if he was experiencing this taste, and after a long time, he opened his eyes.
"During these decades of poverty, I always dreamed of drinking and eating meat with my senior brother and peeping at the fairy bathing..."
Shenxiu said softly, with a smile on her face: "...I really miss it!"
