I was really stunned by what he said, "I don't understand..."
"You don't understand, do you? Then I'll tell you to understand!"
He waved his arm and looked at me with a serious look on his face: "Since you have an ordinary mind and don't want to become an immortal or a Buddha, then tell me what you are hesitating about. Before that, you had unique conditions.
There are always two clear choices before you. One is to give up your lover, focus on cultivation, only serve the gods, only do the Tao, and have no desires or pursuits!"
"But I can't give up on him..."
"Then the second kind, as long as you can live up to the heaven, fear the earth below, have the word conscience in your heart, remove all the ties between gods in your heart, live only for a mortal heart, and swear to live and die with your lover, God
If you block the God, you will kill the Buddha. If you block the Buddha, you will kill the Buddha! Tell me, will you suffer this calamity again!!"
My lips trembled slightly: "But...but..."
"Ma Jiaolong, you know, you are not ruthless enough, so even if some people know your destiny, they can't figure it out and can only watch it happen."
He took a deep breath and looked at me: "Which of the two choices, as long as you make up your mind, today's incident will not happen. And once the disaster occurs, it will naturally save you again. What I want to tell you is that the ordinary heart
It’s difficult, you have to face your own heart. The oath you made when you entered the school was correct, not to do bad things or make money improperly. However, you have always failed to achieve great things, and you are also hampered by this. Although you have good intentions, you are too cautious and cautious.
It’s not a good thing. Remember, you are not born to save one person. A true Onmyoji must always know the mission behind you——"
…
"Let me tell you a story."
When the conversation changed, he suddenly sat down cross-legged on the open space in front of me and said in an awkward voice: "A long time ago, I was showing people things..."
"Were you a gentleman before?"
"nonsense!"
He actually rolled his eyes at me, and continued to speak as if he was unhappy after being interrupted by me: "That man was very poor. I eliminated evil spirits and cured his illness. After that, he gave me all his
Thank me for the money, but I didn’t ask for it.”
I also sat across from him: "Yes, sir, that's what he should be like."
He ignored me and continued to speak, "Not long after, the biggest rich man in the village also fell ill and found me, but I hated his behavior, so I didn't save him, so I passed
Soon, the rich man died."
I frowned slightly: "That's right, if he were a bad person, I wouldn't..."
Uncle Chou just doesn’t care about the village elder’s wife!
As he was talking, I looked into his bright eyes and suddenly thought of something: "...Jiaolong knows how to be a gentleman in the future."
He looked at me with a smile: "You know, the most important word of foresight is 'foresight'. You should be lucky because you have Mandrill Black Dragon to help you. Otherwise, even if I want to sit here and talk to you, I can't.
Yeah, judging from the mandrill black dragon, you can be considered to have had 'foresight', although I know very well that you bumped into..."
I was embarrassed by what he said, and I sat there a little helpless, listening to him continue to speak: "You have to face your own heart, and as long as you can clearly distinguish what is great kindness, then you will have a clear conscience for whatever you do.
I was too timid and hesitant before. This kind of mentality is unacceptable. You must know that the difference between seemingly doing a good thing and helping only one person and seemingly doing a bad thing but helping a group of people are all good karma, but which one is accumulated?
More, I think you should know in your heart that the most important thing in life is to respect your heart, otherwise, reincarnation is of no use!"
I opened my eyes wide and said, "What you said is completely different from what Brother Ma and the others told me. They just wanted me to cut off my love and have no other aspirations."
"They know nothing."
Looking at my shocked eyes, he coughed twice: "Master, I made a mistake..."
The muscles on my face were twitching. What kind of god is this? It really refreshed my outlook on life!
"In short, if you remember these eight words, they may seem innocent, but they are also righteous."
As he said that, he stood up slowly: "The gods who once enlightened you naturally hope that you can become an immortal and enter Taoism. But they don't understand you and don't know the pain of an ordinary heart. It will take you a long time to realize Taoism."
To dispel doubts, working as an errand below, or transferring to the Six Paths, can give you only a few decades in the world of the world. When fate comes, you only need to see if you want to accept it in your heart. When fate has gone, then
Just wave your hands and forget about each other. Everything is normal. Remember, never hesitate. You are the one who makes the decision for yourself. What's more, you are still a gentleman. Never be limited by some restrictions, because
Your ability is enough to make you not afraid of any gods."
I stood up after him: "You...are really not a god?"
He looked at me with a smile and pointed to the sky: "I am a person like you who has scolded him before, but you have seen it. What can he do to me? I like those eight words you said.
Be worthy of heaven and fearless of earth. As long as you follow these eight words, you will be fearless no matter what you do."
I looked up at him and said, "Jiaolong understands, I really understand."
He smiled warmly and peacefully: "Do you really understand? Have you ever thought about it? In fact, these gods who seem to take away everything from you are actually helping you. They help you make choices and help you throw away your doubts.
temper."
My lips and teeth opened slightly: "Help me?"
It was like I had an enlightenment and suddenly became enlightened. Yes, it was helping me. I have never seen myself clearly. Just like this person who is my master said, I know what to do, but I have never been cruel.
, I never choose on my own, I want to be with Zhuo Jing, but except for that time in Hong Kong, I have never made any real efforts. On the one hand, I am afraid of the teachings of my grandma, San Xian'er and various gods.
On the other hand, I was suffering from the marriage evil and the difficulty of being with Zhuo Jing. I tried hard to balance this balance until it was broken unexpectedly.
Sanxian'er seems to be gone, but he will not give me any more restrictions on my thinking. Immortal families who practice Taoism have many taboos. This is in line with what my master warned me, although I may seem innocent, there is also a way.
, maybe I look like I’m doing bad things, but I’m actually doing good deeds, and the broken yin and yang roots naturally make me abandon my past temperament and start over again, let alone the natural yin and yang, I will not suffer from it from now on.
The torture of rejecting the marriage was terrible.
What I haven’t figured out yet is that Brother Ma took away Zhuo Jing’s memory of me, but Brother Ma, I think he also did it for my own good. Putting aside my personality, from the perspective of family structure and social status, I
It is indeed inappropriate to be with him.
"Do you understand what to do?"
I nodded heavily: "Jiaolong understands."
His thoughts were smoother than ever before: "Jiao Long will remember Master's teachings. Be normal. It's mine. I fight for it. It's not mine. I won't force it."
"Since you are born in this world, you should cherish it. If you understand, then go back. We will meet in our dreams."
I was in no hurry to leave. The doubts in my heart were cleared, but my doubts about him came out again: "Master, are you really the Master in my dream?"
"You still don't believe it!!?"
He looked at me speechlessly, coughed twice, and put on his airs again: "I've lost my composure as a teacher..."
Just like this, how can I believe it? Although he has made my thinking clear and no longer entangled, I am really curious about who he is. Can a god or something be so open-minded?
"Master, are you really not a god?"
Anyone who can teach in a dream is incredible, so I am really curious about him.
"I don't bother to be a god. It's boring to have no desires and actions."
He looked at me and opened his mouth lightly: "The reason why I understand you is because I have always upheld an ordinary mind. The clouds are in the sky and the water is in the bottle. I can achieve enlightenment no matter what. It just depends on how you see yourself clearly, otherwise you will feel depressed and unhappy."
, what’s the point of being a god! Go back, let’s meet again in dreams!”
I watched him turn around and slowly walk away, muttering softly: "The clouds are in the sky and the water is in the bottle?"
Reach out and cover your heart, and realize that the water in the bottle is like the human heart. It can be filled in square bottles or round bottles. As long as it is clean and dust-free, it can be soft and strong. It is like a white cloud, ever-changing and free. If it is a cloud,
When bottles look at each other, clouds can turn into water, and water can evaporate into clouds. We are not surprised by honor or disgrace, and we forget both things and ourselves. Take it seriously, everything is the Tao. (To be continued)
