Chapter one hundred and seventy-eight of Zen. It is safe 2)
When Zhang Jun left this time, I didn't have time to see him off. According to Lao Xian, he had a very happy birthday because the simple birthday party held in the Jinbei car was not just for him and Lao Xian, but also for many people. We had more water and more doors. The only regret was that I arrived a little late and he left before I had any wine.
I lay in the hospital for fourteen days. Except for Mi Zhongguo who came to ask questions, I said less than twenty sentences in total. I didn't know whether I was hungry or thirsty. I just wanted to sleep. When I woke up, I was in a daze. , the old immortal called me crazy.
I remember when I was a child, when I was watching Journey to the West, when I caught up with the episode where Sun Wukong caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace and reached the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor got under the table and held on to the curtain on his head. , while shouting: "Hurry up and invite Tathagata Buddha", I suddenly had a doubt.
How could such a cowardly middle-aged fat man be able to lead so many ruthless prostitutes and make the three-eyed Erlang Shen, Li family father and son, Taishang Laojun and others bow their heads?
It was promised that when the emperor was angry, he would lay down millions of corpses.
We promised to rule the world and be domineering and mighty.
How the hell do you think he looks like an emperor? So far, before I was 15 years old, whenever I watched Journey to the West, I would laugh and say, "This is a softie." Don't look at him with the door curtain on his head. He seems to be very domineering. When Sun Wukong swings the stick, he will also be confused."
As time goes by, in the blink of an eye, I seem to have reached the position of the Jade Emperor. Don't say I am shameless and compare myself with the Jade Emperor. I just think about it. In fact, the work he and I do is similar, both of which are to stabilize a gang. , develop a gang and balance a gang. If you encounter someone like Zhu Bajie who is disobedient and has no ability, you must suppress him. If you encounter someone as fierce as Sun Wukong, you must temporarily avoid the edge and win over him.
But we are all just like ordinary people at our core. When we get angry, we command the people below and say: "Go, chop him up quickly." At that time, we never imagined how bloody this chop would be. As a result, when one day we are forced to go to the point of taking a knife to hurt a fellow human being, the uneasiness, panic, and fear cannot be expressed in words.
Xiaoquan's death had a great impact on me. I will never forget the sound of "you, you, you" that kept coming out of his mouth when he was lying on the ground. If he stabbed Gu Lu Lin to kill Guo Hao, then I had no choice but to stab Koizumi to death, which is my human selfishness.
There are countless things about him that make people despise him. He has no loyalty to his superiors and no shame to his subordinates. He is as timid as a mouse and regards wealth as his life. But did these mistakes really lead to his death? Even if he committed a capital crime, What right do I have to end him?
When I was lying on the hospital bed in a daze, I was always like a child, looking for countless reasons to defend myself, but none of them were tenable.
Because I feel bad about this matter.
I have not yet reached the mentality of being greedy for tens of millions of dollars and still shamelessly saying that I am for the people and the people are for me.
I also don’t admit that on the road to success, there will be as much dirt as there are winds and rains, as the saying goes.
So I couldn't get out. I felt like I was about to be suffocated to death. This was a secret. I didn't tell anyone, including Laoxian, Shuishui, Menmen, An'an and the others.
For more than half a month, I was in a state of confusion.
"Nan Guo, let's have some food."
An An lay on the bed with me, rubbed my temples with her hands, and asked softly.
"."
I was stunned and didn't reply.
"The doctor said that you have removed all the stitches and is urging us to leave the hospital." An An said again.
"."
I still didn't reply.
"What happened to you,."
"have no idea."
"Then we can't stay in the hospital all the time. I see that you are in a bad mood. How about we go on a trip." An An asked tentatively again.
"Uh-huh."
My cloudy eyes suddenly became brighter
"Boom, boom, boom."
The train rolled over the rails, and after a bumpy night, An An and I embarked on a journey to seek immortality.
Destination, Qingyan Temple, Liaoning.
This temple has a high reputation in the Northeast. It is dedicated to the old mother with crooked neck. The incense is very popular. Many stars from the Northeast have come here to burn incense and worship the mother. The steps leading to the top of the mountain are engraved with names of people.
Zhao Xshan, one hundred thousand.
Jiang Peng, fifty thousand.
Sun X Lei, one hundred thousand.
Li Xbing, 88,000
An An, wearing sportswear and sunglasses, happily jumped out of the vehicle, which was a special vehicle for tour groups with just me, her, and a driver.
After I got off the car, I looked at the majestic green mountains. I wanted to take a breath of fresh air, but who knows, when I sucked it in through my nose, all I smelled was the smell of inferior incense. When I looked up again, I saw the blue sky and white clouds in my imagination. , not at all. There were all kinds of burnt paper scraps floating in the sky, and countless thick smoke floated towards the hazy sky, giving people a very gloomy feeling.
"Brother, what do you want for a walk?" The driver of the tour group, a young man wearing a gold chain, a shaved head, and an Armani T-shirt, handed me a Yunyan and said with a smile.
"Haha, how can you take a stroll?"
I feel that my smile suddenly became very strange. When I look at him, I always feel that he has been around for more years than me. I don’t mean to be discriminatory. After all, I do this too, but I always feel that such a person is standing in front of Buddha. Underfoot, a bit ironic.
"It's more than a thousand, so I can take a short stroll. Although the price is affordable, there are too many people in this set meal, and my mother may not be able to handle it. If you want to make a wish, then the first choice is the set meal of 3,888 yuan, which contains two bundles of one Red incense that is more than one meter long, several bundles of small incense, and all paid attractions are free of charge." The young man began to introduce eloquently.
"Then I have to attack you with sincerity." I asked again.
"Brother, I can tell you are sincere when I see you." After hearing my question, the young man immediately spoke up and said enthusiastically: "5888, top-level package, accompanied by a tour guide, explaining the whole process, climbing to the top of the mountain, entering the mother's house There is no need to queue up in the temple. You can touch the golden body of the old mother up close and soak up the spiritual energy. You can also play mahjong with Tianhu in the future. You can also chat one-on-one with the Zen master about the nature of Taoism. It is not a problem to dress the old mother in a red horse. Go down the mountain. From now on, I will give you a set of consecrated Buddhist beads, oh, there are also versions for couples."
I was speechless for a moment.
"Uh, forget it, we can just go for a walk on our own." An An sweated violently and replied with a bit of a stutter.
"Give him the money, the one with more than 5,000 yuan." I was silent for a moment and said slowly.
"You are sick and have no money." An An stomped her feet and replied in my ear.
"Little sister, when you come out to worship Buddha, you can't care about money. No matter how sincere you are, my mother will do whatever you want for you. You have to be willing to bear it, don't you understand?" the young man advised.
"Whether my mother can help you or not, it depends on how much the package price is." An An asked speechlessly.
"Oh, let me go. Look at the people in Wuyang Wuyang on this mountain. They are all here to make fucking wishes. My working time is limited and there are so many trivial things in the world. How can I take care of it? Why don't you be special? Stand out." The young man said plausibly.
"It doesn't feel peaceful or simple at all. Husband, let's go to Tibet." An An turned to look at me.
"It's the same everywhere you go, just pay." I took a deep breath and said with my hands behind my back.
"Brother, what you said is right. A living person burning paper for a dead person is fooling the ghosts. I don't know if the Buddha works, but after you spend the money, you will definitely be in a better state than you are now. This is called What, send it?" The young man gave me a thumbs up and said to me plausibly.
"Yes, I don't know which Buddha statue appeared, so I just worshiped them all."
I nodded in response.
"ill,,."
An An was so angry that she almost stretched out her little paws to scratch someone. She really felt that these five thousand people were going to be cheated.
At the foot of the mountain, "fairy mist fills the air."
I dragged the red silk ribbon with both hands, looked forward, slowly bent my knees, knelt on the bluestone road, prostrated on the ground, and knelt down devoutly.
The tourists who were taking pictures and walking around in a hurry looked at me like I was a fool. This is the foot of the mountain. If you go up thousands of steps, can you all worship me?
An'an was there at the beginning. Every time I kowtowed, she would scold me. When I slowly walked a third of the way, she stopped talking and knelt down beside me.
If this had been after the proliferation of Weibo, I guess our mentally ill couple would have made headlines.
I don't know why, every time I knock my head on the ground, apart from the physical pain and fatigue, my heart becomes more and more at ease.
I am sincere, really sincere. I believe that there is a Buddha, and that the Buddha will be kind enough to forgive my mistakes.
On the winding mountain road, our bodies undulated all the way, facing the setting sun and rushing to the top of the mountain.
In the old mother's ancestral hall, the sound of ancient bells was ringing, and the tinkling sound was very sweet. An old man with a kind face was beating the wooden fish and chanting sutras. People around him were prostrate on the ground, with their hands clasped together, and their faces pious.
Soon it was An An and I's turn.
"Donor, step forward."
The old monk chanted softly.
I walked to the old mother Buddha statue, knelt on the futon, and kowtowed slowly.
"Snapped."
The old monk placed his old palm on my head and chanted softly: "Recite the Buddha with all your heart, and meditate when you can't stop thinking about it. There is no Amitabha Buddha."
"Namo Amitabha."
I chanted softly, spreading my hands and kneeling on the ground.
"Boom."
The ancient clock is long and peaceful, and the tranquility reaches far away.
The weight of a thousand dollars that seemed to be pressing on my back dissipated with the sound of the bell
When I came down the mountain, I collected the couple's Buddhist beads, regardless of whether they were genuine or not, and kept wearing them on my hand from now on.
PS: Another Black Friday is here, two more updates, I wish everyone a happy weekend,,.
