"Are you asking for the Dharma name, or this family?" Honghai'er felt a little better when he heard Lotte speaking for him.
Lotte Tianzhen said: "Well, let me tell you, your child is so cute, shouldn't he be called Red Boy?"
"My name is Hong Hai'er." Hong Hai'er raised his head and said proudly.
"Uh..." Lotte was stunned. She looked at Honghai'er and then at Fangzheng.
Fangzheng clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, his name is indeed Red Boy."
Lottery smiled again: "This is good, this is good, how about a money-spreading boy?"
Lotte Tian is an acquaintance, and he is also quite good at talking. He chatted with Fang Zheng, and they had a lot of fun.
Fang Zheng was also curious about some things in Taoism, so he asked, "Master, if I'm not mistaken, this poor monk is wearing a robe, right?"
Lotte Tian's old face turned red and said, "It's indeed a robe. I can't help it. I'm poor... The robe is thick. It won't wear out even if I sit around when I go out."
Fangzheng was stunned, this optimistic person is really cute... But the robe has been the first choice of wandering Taoist priests since ancient times, and the reason is really this: it is wear-resistant!
Fang Zheng said: "Where is the Taoist temple of the real person?"
Lotte Tian pointed at the Tongtian Mountains behind and said, "It's not a Taoist temple inside the mountains, it's just a thatched cottage."
"Then how do real people eat and drink?" Fang Zheng asked again.
"Farming and weaving by myself, having enough food and clothing, eating and drinking, is quite comfortable." When Mr. Lotte said this, his eyes were quite proud and free and easy. It was obvious that he was not trying to save face, but really liked this kind of life. . Lotte Heaven's voice changed and said: "Master Fangzheng, Pindao came here this time because he actually has something to ask for."
Speaking of this, Lotte's face turned red.
Fang Zheng found it quite interesting that this optimistic person showed all his emotions on his face, so he asked, "What's the matter? Just tell me."
"Uh, um... I dug some of your bamboo shoots, this... this... look, how do you pay for it..." Lotte Tianren's face turned even redder.
Fangzheng was shocked, dug up his bamboo shoots? Could it be that Lotte people went up to the mountain to dig? Why don't you see Lone Wolf come back? Or has he deserted too
Fang Zheng was stunned, and Lotte God thought that Fang Zheng was a little unhappy, and said even more embarrassedly: "I didn't know that it had an owner at first. I saw this bamboo growing at the foot of the mountain, and wild boars were digging for it, so I followed him. I dug two roots. Later I found out that the bamboo belonged to Yizhi Village, and I originally went to the village chief Wang Yougui. But he said that the bamboo belongs to you, so... "
When Fang Zheng heard this, he was immediately speechless. This Taoist priest was really simple and cute. He smiled and said, "You're too polite, Master. Although the bamboo shoots originated from the poor monk, but since they have grown, they are not unique to the poor monk." It’s a gift. The donor likes to eat it, so he digs it without thinking too much.”
"Huh? But... um... is it really ownerless?" asked Lotte.
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Of course it is true, but it will return to the village from now on. Of course, if you want to eat, you can still dig it."
Lotte Heaven smiled immediately: "I feel relieved for such a poor person. To be honest, these bamboo shoots are really delicious."
Fang Zheng waved, and the monkey brought a bamboo shoot from the top of the mountain. Fang Zheng said, "There is a better one here. Do you want it, Master?"
However, what surprised Fang Zheng was that Letian shook his head and said, "No more."
Fang Zheng asked in confusion: "Why?"
"There are countless good things in the world, how can we take advantage of them all? How can we be content with what we have? Look at the sky, it's blue, how beautiful it is. It's a pity that some people look at it every day but think it's nothing more than this. Let them get rid of some smog After living in Tian's big city for a while, you will know what beauty is." After Lotte finished speaking, he stood up and said: "It's getting late, Pindao won't disturb the Master. If you have free time, you can go to Pindao's Taoist temple in the back mountain. Sizai, although it is a bit poor, it is still an elegant place."
Fang Zheng stood up and said, "Definitely, by the way, Dare I ask the real person if there are any other practitioners in the Tongtian Mountains?"
"Yes, this Tongtian Mountain Range is not disturbed by secular people. It is quiet and peaceful, and has rich products. Some people still practice in it. As far as Pindao knows, there is a teacher who calls himself a Confucian disciple and lives there. ” Lotte is really humane.
Fang Zheng was extremely surprised. He had never known about this before. He had always thought that Yizhi Mountain was already the most fringe area, and if you removed the blind bear and wolf cub, it would be nothing. Unexpectedly, there are still people who go into the big ravine to practice.
After seeing off Mr. Le Tian, Fang Zheng's heart began to cheer up. It seemed like he would go to the Tongtian Mountains if he had time in the future.
"Master, we are Buddhist disciples. Why are we talking to an old Taoist for so long?" Hong Boyer asked in confusion.
Fang Zheng asked, "Why can't we talk?"
"We believe in Buddha, but he believes in Tao. As the saying goes, Tao is different and does not work together. When they come together, it is weird." Honghai'er said.
Fang Zheng chuckled and said, "That's because you are overthinking. It doesn't matter what you believe in, as long as you are nice. Moreover, since ancient times, Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have not had so many disputes. On the contrary, they are very harmonious with each other."
"Really or not? You guys have different beliefs, how can you still get together?" Hong Hai'er was really curious.
Fang Zheng took Hong Boy out of the temple gate and asked as he walked: "So what are the differences you said, in detail, what are the differences?"
Hong Hai'er pursed his lips and frowned. Although he was born as a demon king, he had never traveled around the world, so he didn't have much experience. But after all, she is from a famous family, so she still knows some common sense. So Hong Hai'er said: "You are talking about Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. Their cultivation methods must be different."
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Confucianism modifies qi, Buddhism cultivates harmonious qi, and Taoism cultivates pure qi. All three are qi. In the end, the three qi of righteousness, harmony, and purity do not lead to the same goal, but merge into one body. What they seek is the qi of heaven and earth. ?”
Honghai'er was speechless and immediately said: "Then... then it's different, okay? The core is different."
"Why is it different? Confucianism talks about having a "right" mind; Taoism talks about naturally "refining" the mind; Buddhism seeks to cultivate a "bright" mind. Righteousness, refinement, and clarity are all Three hearts, what are you pursuing, isn’t it the original heart? It’s just the same destination through different paths.” Fang Zheng said, he has been reading Buddhist scriptures every day for so long, and it is not for nothing that he has read Buddhist principles. There is nothing in the Buddhist scriptures that excludes other ways. On the contrary, he saw a lot of praise for it. Moreover, in many places, Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are indeed like a family, and there are not as many disputes as the world thinks. Real practitioners do not pursue mundane fame and wealth. They discuss each other's gains, understand their original minds, and seek the transcendence of the mind. How come there are so many moths? Those who cause trouble are probably not true monks.
