Chapter 553: A real nun

Views:

After Nanfeng finished speaking, the fat man said, "Compared with compassion, there is no one more compassionate than us monks. These are all warriors and aliens you are looking for. Why are you not looking for a single monk?"

"Don't worry, it's next." Nanfeng pointed to the southwest.

"Bhikkhu or bhikshuni?" the fat man asked.

"Nun." Nanfeng said casually.

"Which nun?" Fatty asked. There were so many people auditioning that day that he couldn't remember who was selected.

"You kicked that little nun in the butt." Nanfeng said. Fatty had been acting as a touchstone during the auditions. Whether this guy strikes lightly or harshly depends not only on his mood but also on the person. light.

After Nan Feng finished speaking, Chang Le and Zhuge Chanjuan laughed.

"Why are you laughing? I kicked her because that little thing was playing tricks on me." The fat man defended eagerly.

"Are you even into the dark side?" Zhuge Chanjuan teased.

The fat man had no choice but to go to Nanfeng and said, "Your ladies are so shameless, so you don't care about her."

"I'll take care of it if I can." Nan Feng shook his head.

Zhuge Chanjuan smiled proudly. After laughing enough, she asked Nanfeng, "What kind of little nun?"

"She is seventeen or eighteen years old, not tall, and a pretty little nun." Nanfeng said casually.

"Oh, she's very beautiful," Zhuge Chanjuan squinted at the fat man, "No wonder she kicked someone's butt."

"Stop making trouble," Fatty said anxiously, "Ah Yue has been taken away, how can I have such thoughts? I didn't hit her hard because her cultivation level was too low. I was afraid of kicking her if I kicked her anywhere else. Disabled."

"I can't see that you are still a compassionate master." Zhuge Chanjuan continued to tease.

The fat man was at a loss for words and cursed, urging Lao Bai to distance himself from the two of them.

After saying that Fatty ran away, Zhuge Chanjuan tilted her head and looked at Nanfeng, "What kind of cultivation level does that little nun have?"

"The light red cave god." Nanfeng said.

"For this age, the Light Red Cave God is not high, why did you choose her?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked.

"You will know when you see her." Nanfeng said.

If it were Yuan Anning, she would definitely not ask any more questions after saying this, but Zhuge Chanjuan is not Yuan Anning, so how could she be restrained and restrained, "Don't try to sell yourself to me, tell me quickly, what's so special about that little nun?"

"Very smart and good at martial arts." Nanfeng said.

Zhuge Chanjuan was naturally dissatisfied with Nanfeng's perfunctory words and frowned at him.

Nanfeng had no choice but to elaborate, "Her answers to the three questions I asked were very satisfactory to me. I asked her what she would do first if she were promoted to the Great Luo Jinxian. What do you think she said?"

"Looking for a good husband?" Zhuge Chanjuan guessed.

"Yes, this guy really said that." Nanfeng smiled and nodded.

"She is smart. She knows not to lie in front of you. What else is there?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked.

"I asked her again if she would obey if I asked her to do things for me if I were promoted to Daluo. What do you think she would answer?" Nanfeng asked with a smile.

"Did she say that there was nothing she could not do?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked.

Nanfeng squinted at Zhuge Chanjuan, smiled and nodded. Don't think that being careless means you are stupid. In fact, on the contrary, Zhuge Chanjuan is very smart.

Zhuge Chanjuan glanced at Nanfeng and asked, "How is her martial arts?"

"My body skills are good, I follow a feminine path, and I have a lot of hidden weapons and weapons hidden all over my body," Nanfeng said.

Hearing what Nanfeng said, Zhuge Chanjuan also became very curious about this person and slapped Ba Ye to make him fly quickly.

At dawn, a village appeared ahead. Nanfeng instructed Ba Ye to land outside the village, and the four of them walked into the village.

"Is the nunnery in the village?" the fat man asked.

Nanfeng shook his head, "Some time ago, the imperial court expelled Buddha and Taoism, and their nunnery was demolished by the government, so they stayed here temporarily."

"Are we investigating openly or secretly?" the fat man asked again.

"Come directly to the door." Nanfeng said.

It was a cold winter, so most of the villagers didn't get up, but if you wanted to find the little nun, you didn't need to ask anyone, you could feel the scent.

At this time, most villages had ancestral halls, and the little nun lived in the ancestral hall in the west of the village.

When the four of them arrived, the little nun was clearing snow in the courtyard of the ancestral hall. The door of the ancestral hall was open, and there was an old nun inside, carrying an oil can and adding oil to a row of oil lamps placed on the altar table.

Seeing the arrival of the four people, the little nun was stunned for a moment, then threw away the broom and ran towards the door. At the same time, she shouted happily, "Master, Master Nanfeng and Master Zhengde are here with two distinguished guests."

The little nun walked three steps at a time, put her hands together outside the door, and saluted the four of them, "Amitabha, hello Nanfeng, Master Zhengde, hero brother, and beautiful sister."

As the saying goes, everything goes well, but flattery doesn't. Seeing that the little nun was so good at talking, the four of them all had smiles on their faces. However, in addition to good impressions, they were also more confused. Most of the nuns had a bitter and hateful face. How could such a person be like this? Such a joyful look.

"Coming here uninvited will cause trouble." Nanfeng raised his hand to the little nun.

"The real crane is here, and the humble house is full of glory. Why bother to say anything?" The little nun invited sideways, "Please come in quickly, please come in quickly."

Nanfeng thought for a while and stepped in. Normally, Taoists would not enter temples, but now he was no longer a Taoist from the Three Sects, and this was not a temple, so there was no need to worry about taboos.

Just as Nanfeng and the old nun were greeting each other, the fat man asked the little nun, "I remember your Buddhist name is Xiyuan, right?"

"Master has a good memory." The little nun gave the fat man a thumbs up.

"How do you know I'm a monk?" Fatty asked with a smile.

"Not only do I know that you are a monk, I also know that you are a Bodhisattva." Xiyuan said, then looked at Changle, "I also know that this is the Gufeng Sword God who defeated the Thirty-six Heavenly Gangs of Ziguang Pavilion in one battle."

"Oh, this nickname is so majestic," the fat man smiled at Chang Le, then turned to look at Xi Yuan, "Has anyone in the world given me a nickname?"

"No, everyone knows that you are the reincarnation of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Who dares to offend by making false remarks." Xiyuan shook his head.

"Hahaha, you are really good at talking," the fat man pointed at Zhuge Chanjuan and asked Xiyuan, "Then do you know who she is?"

"This sister is heroic and restrained, naturally proud, radiant, and incomparable. She must be a fairy." Xiyuan said.

The apprentice is a good apprentice, but the master is very ordinary. Xiyuan's master must be sixty or seventy years old. He has been promoted to Xuan. He is a bit dull and not good at words. After meeting the four people, he left with an excuse, leaving Xiyuan and the four of them to go to the ancestral hall. say.

"Do you have any other masters?" Nanfeng asked.

Xiyuan shook her head, "No, I only have this master."

Nan Feng nodded, "We have two purposes for coming here this time. First, we have a few questions to ask you, and second, we want to try your martial arts again."

"Excuse me, real person." Xiyuan not only spoke cheerfully, but also looked cheerful, with a small round face and big eyes, without the sad face of a nun.

Nanfeng didn't waste any time and got straight to the point, "Besides your master, do you have any family members?"

"Yes, I have both secular parents and two older brothers." Xiyuan replied.

"How is your family situation?" Nanfeng asked again.

"We are not a wealthy family, but we are not short of food and clothing." Xiyuan replied.

"Has there ever been a man who made you sad and disappointed?" Nanfeng asked again.

Xiyuan shook her head again, "No, my parents made a marriage arrangement for me when I was a child. When I grew up, I didn't like him, so I returned the gift and canceled the marriage."

"You have a family, your family is not poor, and you have never been hurt by love, so why do you want to become a nun?" Nanfeng asked with a smile.

"Just because I like Buddhism." Xiyuan replied immediately.

None of the four people doubted Xiyuan's answer. The reason was very simple. Whether it was a nun or a monk, the reason why they became a monk was simply because their parents had died, their family was poor, and they were hurt by love. However, Xiyuan's situation was not the same. That's not the case. Her parents are all here, her family background is good, and she has never been sad about love. After ruling out these situations, she is the only one who likes her.

Everything has its ups and downs, and what is down is when you are forced to do it when you have no choice but to do it. What is high? High means that there is no influence from any external force, you just do that because you want to do that.

In terms of motivation alone, Xiyuan is way ahead of the millions of monks and nuns in China. Those monks and nuns have impure motives, which are far less pure than Xiyuan. Compared with Xiyuan, they are all fake monks and nuns.

"Why do you like Buddhism?" the fat man asked.

Xiyuan heard the sound and looked at the fat man, "I feel that there are many truths hidden in Buddhism."

Xiyuan originally thought that the fat man would take over the conversation, but she never thought that he would stop talking after just one question, so she turned her attention back to Nanfeng and waited for him to speak.

Nanfeng thought for a while and asked, "What do you think about cause and effect?"

"Do you want to listen to the long one or the short one?" Xiyuan was not restrained and dared to ask.

Nanfeng smiled and said, "Long story short."

Xiyuan said, "The results of this life are the causes of the past life, and the results of this life are also the causes of the future lives. Chasing the past life and cultivating the next life are not as good as cherishing the reality of this life."

After Xiyuan finished speaking, Nanfeng and Zhuge Chanjuan both nodded, but Fatty shook his head, and the reason for his shaking his head was very simple. Xiyuan's views deviated from the Buddhist explanation and definition of cause and effect.

"What do you think about the equality of all living beings?" Nanfeng asked again.

Xiyuan frowned slightly and did not answer immediately.

Nanfeng thought for a while and changed his words, "Do you think that all living beings are equal?"

Xiyuan still didn't answer, but peeked at the fat man from the corner of her eye.

Seeing her like this, Nanfeng knew that she had concerns, so he encouraged her, "Don't worry about him, just tell the truth."

"If people are not equal to each other, how can all living beings be equal?" Xiyuan shook his head.

Seeing that Xiyuan was hesitant, Zhuge Chanjuan encouraged her, "You don't have to be afraid that Zhengde will be unhappy. Just say everything you want to say."

Encouraged by the two people, Xi Yuan became more courageous and said, "All living beings are equal, as believers have heard. If all living beings are truly equal, how can one achieve high or low status by cultivating Buddhism? Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat, there is no distinction between high and low. Do you want to get off?"

"Why do I feel that you don't like Buddhism very much?" The fat man frowned.

"What I like," Xiyuan argued, "I just don't have the indiscriminate and blind faith of others like others. They don't really like it, it's fanatical paranoia. Once the enthusiasm wanes, the heart of worshiping the Buddha will also fade away. ."

As soon as these words came out, Fatty frowned, Zhuge Chanjuan frowned, Nan Feng also frowned, but Chang Le was expressionless.

The fat man frowned because what Xiyuan said was too deviant, while Zhuge Chanjuan frowned because she found that what Xiyuan said coincided with many of Nanfeng's views, and she could be considered a close friend. Nanfeng's frown was because he was suspicious, and Xiyuan's words were almost entirely what he was thinking. Is there something fishy behind this matter

Seeing that Xiyuan was nervous, Nanfeng remained silent for a long time, "Earlier I asked you what you would do after becoming a Daluo. What you said was to find a good husband. Have you never met a man who makes you happy before?" The man you like?"

"No." Xiyuan shook his head.

The fat man said, "You are very good-looking. You are practicing Buddhahood and still have spring in your heart. For a flower nun like you, there should be many flower monks who like you."

"There are many, not just monks, but I don't like them." Xiyuan shook his head.

"What's the reason for looking down on him?" Nanfeng asked.

"In their eyes, I have no shortcomings at all." Xiyuan said.

"Isn't this good?" Nanfeng laughed.

"It's not good," Xiyuan shook his head, "How can a person have no shortcomings at all? They said that I am flawless. Either they are obsessed with lust, or they are deliberately lying to please me."

"Even though you have never been promoted to the Great Luo, you are already so calm and sober. If you were granted the title of Great Luo and your mind has been improved, it will be even more difficult to find your wishful husband." Nanfeng said with a smile.

The fat man also curled his lips and answered, "It's a good thing that I can't find it. If I find it, I won't abandon my position as Daluo and run away with others..."
