Zen Master Yizhi got Fang Zheng some rice on a plate, and then asked him to sit by the stove to eat. Yizhi Temple was still very poor at this time and had no electricity, so lighting candles at night seemed a bit luxurious. Fortunately, the mountain is high, the sky is clear, and the moon is bright. The moonlight shines in from the window, and you can almost see clearly.
The master and apprentice just sat there, looking at the moon outside the window.
Zen Master Yizhi asked: "Fang Zheng, do you know why you broke the second bowl?"
Fangzheng was confused. He didn't ask about the first bowl, so why did he ask about the second one directly? Fang Zheng thought for a while and said, "A little panicked..."
Yizhi Zen Master touched Fang Zheng's head and said: "Remember, the most terrifying thing in the world is not the wrong thing, but the wrong mind. If something is wrong, you can correct it. If the mind is wrong, you will continue to do wrong things. You break it You took the first bowl, but you didn’t tell your teacher, and ran down the mountain secretly, thinking you could hide it. At this time, your heart is already wrong, and there is a ghost in your heart. How can you calm your mind? If you feel restless and your body is out of tune, naturally Will do more things wrong.
Look at you now. The teacher said that there will be no further investigation. You are holding a big plate and eating with ease. "
Founder's classical Chinese language is thoughtful.
Zen Master Yizhi looked at the bright moon outside and said: "When you have a quiet mind, lotus flowers bloom everywhere. Remember, whenever you make a mistake, face it, so that you can really get over it. Otherwise, you will always Mistakes are made again and again, and in the end, when there is nothing wrong to do and nothing to correct, that is when there is no way out and you reach a dead end. No one in this world can force you to go to a dead end. If there is, it can only be yourself!"
Fang Zheng frowned, looked up at Yi Zhi Zen Master and said, "Master."
"Huh?" Zen Master Yizhi asked.
Fang Zheng said: "I understand a little bit, but there is still a problem."
"Oh? Then tell me." Zen Master Yizhi smiled, with one hand behind his back, as if he was grabbing something.
Fang Zheng didn't see it either, but said: "Master, if you make a mistake, you will make it again and again. The best way is to correct it as soon as possible, right?"
Zen Master Yizhi nodded, quite satisfied with Fang Zheng's understanding.
Fang Zheng continued: "Then you have been poor your whole life, why didn't you correct it halfway? Now we are obviously on a dead end!"
Zen Master Yizhi smiled slightly, took out a feather duster from behind his back, and said with a smile: "Boy, I have been waiting for you here!"
Bang bang bang bang…
Ahh... help!
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng couldn't help laughing. Thinking about it now, when he was a child, he was really not a fuel-efficient lamp... But thinking about what Zen Master Yi Zhi did back then, Fang Zheng couldn't help but clasped his hands together and silently recited in his heart: "Amitabha!"
Yizhi Zen Master would never scold Fang Zheng for doing something wrong. Every time Fang Zheng made a mistake, he would use a special way to guide Fang Zheng, so that Fang Zheng would understand what he had done wrong and be willing to correct it. Even if I hit, I never really hit hard...
Fang Zheng looked up at the sky and muttered: "I guess it's because one finger can't use enough strength..."
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng laughed again, thinking that just now he had even thought of pulling the squirrel to talk right and wrong. This method is simply weak compared to the method used by Yizhi Zen Master to lead his disciples.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "One finger, Dad, I am going to infringe the law. You should be okay with it, right?"
Fang Zheng called everyone to come for dinner, and others came quickly, especially the salted fish. This time he succeeded and his food intake doubled. The guy sat on a chair, swung his fish tail, shook his big fish head proudly, and talked eloquently about what happened when he went down the mountain. Lone Wolf, Monkey, and Red Boy were stunned. Fangzheng has gone down the mountain before, but never as complicated and tricky as this time.
In the past, Fang Zheng could just rely on his magical powers to directly deal with the source, but this time it really took off on the Internet and countless people participated. It was almost impossible for Fang Zheng to solve the problem purely by relying on his magical powers. So everyone is curious about how Founder solved this problem...
However, the squirrel listened absentmindedly. He sat on the table and rubbed his belly, looking flustered and distracted.
Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Jingkuan, go get the bowl and get ready to eat."
When the squirrel heard this, he was stunned. Get the bowl? This work was not his responsibility before! Did Fang Zheng know about him breaking the bowl? Thinking of this, Jingkuan felt uneasy and hurriedly ran to get the bowl.
Sure enough, after the squirrel entered, he heard a crisp ping-pong sound soon!
Fangzheng was stunned for a moment, there was something wrong with this voice! Then I suddenly remembered that the Yizhi Temple today is not the Yizhi Temple back then! At first, only one bowl was broken, but now there are several bowls in the Ichiji Temple! Listening to this voice... Fang Zheng was immediately stunned. This was a one-pot deal!
Fang Zheng hurriedly ran in to check, and sure enough! All the bowls fell to the ground and were broken into pieces! There were broken pieces and remains of bowls everywhere. Fang Zheng saw it and felt pain in his heart. He thought to himself: This is all money!
If you are not a master, you will not know; if you are not a householder, you will not know the value of firewood and rice. Fang Zheng's simple recollection was sweet. Now, at this moment, he realized how extravagant Zen Master Yizhi's method of educating him was! Thinking back to Zen Master Yi Zhi's mood back then, Fang Zheng couldn't help but feel sad... But thinking about how poor he was at that time and couldn't afford a bowl, Zen Master Yi Zhi was willing to invest extravagantly. Now that Fang Zheng is not that poor, he can no longer be stingy.
Lone Wolf, Monkey, and Red Boy felt their hearts tighten when they heard the cracking sound. They get along with the squirrels for a long time and have deep feelings. If it was a minor mistake, it would be nothing. But this time so many were broken, and several guys were sweating over the squirrels...
Xianyu, on the other hand, didn't feel anything about this. He leaned against the door, twirling his beard, looking at it with great interest, and he just wanted to hum a little tune or sing a ditty.
So Fang Zheng took a deep breath, suppressed all his heartache, and calmly looked at the squirrel on the ground with his eyes wide open and full of tears, ready for a flash flood at any time. He nodded slightly and said: "Okay, if it's broken, it's broken. Jingxin, go and pour the vegetables into the rice bowl. Let's eat on plates and big bowls."
When Jing Xin heard this, Fang Zheng didn't blame Squirrel. He was stunned for a moment, and then happily shouted: "Okay!" He spread his legs and went to work.
The squirrel froze in place, what is going on? Master, who has always been a petty person, is so generous? Does the sun rise from the west? Or the calm before the storm? This is not in line with Master’s character! Thinking of this, the little thing became even more uneasy, and tears started to fall down.
When Fang Zheng saw this, he immediately understood what Squirrel was thinking, and there were black lines on his forehead. He thought to himself: "Am I so unreliable as a master? Although he uses punishments as punishments, those punishments are also small. It’s not too much to just make a little fuss.”
