"Tell me the price first." Fang Zheng counted the money in his hand. Adding the previous and current money, the total was three thousand yuan. It seemed like a lot, but it wasn't much. Although incense is now available, most people use free incense and invest only one or two yuan, so there is really not much money to collect.

"A seed costs five yuan, express fee is one hundred, and handling fee is one hundred." The system replied.

Fang Zheng did the math and divided 2,800 yuan by five. In other words, he could buy 560 seeds! One seed produces seven kilograms, which is thousands of kilograms of crystal rice! Fang Zheng suddenly realized that this transaction was worth it!

So Fang Zheng immediately said: "Buy it, I bought it with all the money in my hand!" Fang Zheng spent money very simply. Anyway, with this small amount of money, there is no need to think about upgrading magical powers. If you keep it, you can’t buy anything else. The handling fees and express delivery fees for each transaction are so expensive. If you don’t buy it, it’s okay. If you want to buy it, just buy a big one!

The next moment, Fang Zheng's eyes were dazzled. A cloth bag fell in front of Fang Zheng. The bag was not big, about the size of two palms, and it was heavy when picked up. When I opened it, I saw that they were all crystal rice seeds. There was a scripture underneath, and Fang Zheng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

At this moment, the system said: "I forgot to tell you, although the quality of this crystal rice is the same as the one you ate before, the yield is relatively low."

Fang Zheng suddenly had a bad feeling. It seemed that he had boarded a pirate ship again! Immediately asked: "How much?"

"One seed produces one pound of rice," the system said.

When Fang Zheng heard this, he rolled his eyes! This is simply a trick to the Buddha! This system is so messed up!

"System, you just don't have a body, otherwise I would beat your mother so hard that she wouldn't even recognize you." Fang Zheng was furious.

However, the system ignored him at all.

Fang Zheng just casually said that if the system really came out, Fang Zheng would probably be beaten.

The money was spent and the seeds arrived. When I opened the bag, there was indeed a piece of paper inside, with a line of large characters written on it: "Crystal rice farming method, detailed rules."

Fang Zheng only glanced at it, and there were many things in his mind, all about the cultivation of crystal rice. One of them clearly pointed out that the cultivation of crystal rice requires the method of Zen farming, and he needs to use rootless pure water every day in conjunction with the scriptures. , Only when it is watered with Buddha energy can it grow, otherwise it will die.

There is pure water without roots, but there is foundness.

Regarding sutras, Fang Zheng only needs to recite a sutra every day. The so-called Buddhist aura only requires that the vegetable field is not far from the temple. What's more, Fang Zheng practices meditation every day and has Buddhist aura in his body, so this is not a problem.

But what is Zen farming? There is no explanation at all in the detailed rules of crystal rice farming!

Fang Zheng subconsciously moved his eyes to the scroll under Jingmi. This book is simple and elegant, with a yellow cover that makes it look like an antique at first glance. Pick it up and look at it. There are four big characters written on it, "Zen Cultivating Whispers", and a vertical line of boys below, written by Hui Neng.

"Did the Sixth Patriarch Hui Neng write it?" Fang Zheng looked at the author and secretly clicked his tongue, feeling very excited at the same time. Who is Huineng? If Zen Buddhism began with the first ancestor Bodhidharma, then the person who truly carried Zen Buddhism to its peak was the Sixth Patriarch Hui Neng! Fang Zheng was still aware of this matter. According to historical records, Huineng advocated separate teachings outside the sect without establishing written texts. He advocated the original purity of mind and the inherent Buddha nature. He directly pointed to the human heart and became a Buddha by seeing his nature. That classic Zen saying that has been passed down through the ages: Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the beginning, so how can it cause dust. It comes from the mouth of Huineng.

Therefore, when Fang Zheng saw that this was written by Huineng, he was extremely happy. Although he has read a lot of scriptures online recently, those are just idea products after all, how can they be as solid and down-to-earth as a real book with the fragrance of ink? Fang Zheng just found the treasure. After bathing and changing clothes, he came to the Buddhist hall, opened the scriptures, beat the wooden fish, and started reading slowly.

Fangzheng was stunned when he saw it. There was only one line written on it!

"Mountains are mountains, water is water, movement is movement, stillness is stillness, what's the explanation?"

Fang Zheng was stunned, is this Zen Farming Whispering? Is this a bad language? In just one sentence, I can’t understand it at all!

Fang Zheng flipped through the pages at the back, and sure enough, they were all empty. There is only this sentence in the whole book.

Fang Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "As expected of the Sixth Patriarch, he does not advocate the establishment of writing. Even if it is established, it will only be like this. Alas... But what does this mean?"

Fang Zheng shook his head, stood up and walked out, looking at the mountains in the distance and muttering: "Mountains are mountains, and water is water? Aren't mountains just mountains, and aren't waters just water..."

Fang Zheng couldn't figure it out. He walked around the mountain and still couldn't figure it out. Finally, Fang Zheng returned to the temple, continued to knock wooden fish, and recited the Diamond Sutra, but he was always thinking about the meaning of the passage in Zen Farming Whispers. This sitting lasted for a month. During that month, he did not eat, drink, or have diarrhea. The rest of the time, Fang Zheng just sat here knocking on wooden fish, reading scriptures, and thinking about problems.

Within a month, no less than a dozen groups of pilgrims came. Listening to the sound of wooden fish and the sound of the Founder chanting sutras, the pilgrims felt particularly comfortable, and at the same time they could not bear to disturb the whole chanting of sutras. So Fangzheng lived a peaceful life...

until one day…

"Director, this is it." A man pointed to the top of the mountain and said.

A slightly fat man with a beard and a ponytail next to him looked up at the top of the mountain and said, "Are you sure the scenery above meets the scene we want?"

"Director Yu, I'm sure and sure. Look at this photo. It was taken by a reporter from Songwu County. I asked him. It was indeed taken on site. Didn't the villagers just say that? This is the one above. It looks like there are mountains and forests, temples, grasslands, and blue skies, with mountains in the distance as a backdrop. Isn’t this exactly the place we are looking for?” the man said.

Director Yu said: "I'm just asking, okay, let's go up and have a look together. If it's okay, contact the local people in charge, rent the venue, and finish filming this section quickly. By the way, don't inform Xueying yet, everything is set. When she comes down, tell her to come over."

"Don't worry, director, Xueying is so busy, I will definitely not ask her for such a thing." The man smiled.

"Let's go, let's go up the mountain." After Director Yu said that, he led a team of people up the mountain in a mighty manner.

"Director, this mountain is quite steep, and the mountain roads are in disrepair for a long time. Is this place feasible?" At this time, a thin man with a long face rushed over and asked.

"It would be nice if there are no modern things. You don't have to worry about the lens being worn. I think it's a good place. It's full of ancient flavor, and the shooting effect will be much better. I just don't know if it's safe or not on this mountain. There won't be any wild animals, right?"

Director Yu said.

"Beasts? There really are wild beasts. We still have Luo Wuzhi here. With a stick, all the wild beasts will be driven away." Slender face said with a smile.

"Lin Dongshi, forget it. Don't flatter me. I'm not Wu Song..." A tall man came forward and said with a smile. This man has a Chinese character face, scarred eyebrows, and a fierce temperament. His speaking voice was very crisp and confident. Although he was hit hard, he immediately patted his chest and said, "But I can still deal with ordinary little wolf cubs."

"Okay, that is to say, where did the wolf cub come from? This mountain is an independent peak outside Changbai Mountain. Even if there are wolves, they are still deep in the mountains and old forests." Director Yu said with a smile before he finished speaking.

"Wolf! Wolf! Wolf!" The two young men who were leading the way suddenly screamed and ran all the way back.
