Gently pushing open the Zen room, there was no Zen Master Yi Zhi in the house after all, but everything returned to the way it was when Master Yi Zhi left.
Although the Tukang is dilapidated, it is very clean. The correct explanation is that a quilt is neatly folded and placed on the edge of the kang. There is also a pair of shoes on the ground. Those are Zen Master Yi Zhi who picked up cloth shoes that the villagers did not want and repaired them for convenience.
Made of slippers.
At first, Fangzheng thought the shoes had been thrown away by the system, but now he realized that it turned out that the system had not thrown them away, but only collected them for him.
The cabinet is still the old one painted with red paint. When you open it, you will find a monk's robe with various patches inside.
When Fang Zheng saw the monk's robe, a smile appeared on his face. He took it out, put it on himself, and looked in the mirror. Although it was not as gorgeous, elegant and fairy-like as the moon-white monk's robe, Fang Zheng had never been like this before.
, I feel like I am a human being, not a god!
"I am me, this is who I am...after you let go of everything, what you see is me." Fang Zheng looked at himself in the mirror and smiled with satisfaction.
At this moment, he felt extremely relaxed, even more relaxed than when the Yizhi Temple was at its peak and was admired by thousands of people!
"No wonder Zen Master Yizhi would rather die of old age than poverty on this mountain. It turns out that he has seen through everything in his heart and is free in his heart. How can he care about all the shabby things on the outside?" Fang Zheng smiled slightly and turned his fingers.
The tattered cabinet left by the Zen master.
Under the cabinet, Fang Zheng was surprised to find a letter!
"System, why haven't I seen this letter before?" Fang Zheng looked at the handwriting on the letter and saw that it was written to him by Zen Master Yizhi!
"When I helped you clean up the temple, these things were temporarily put away. Moreover, I can feel that you were not suitable to open this letter at that time. Now, you can give up everything to save people; you can also take off your clothes
When everything is prosperous, return to simplicity, and enjoy it, your mood will be reached, so I put this letter back." The system said.
Fang Zheng nodded and opened the letter.
Disciple: I guess my teacher has already left by the time you read this letter. Hmm... you just graduated from high school. You might not understand when I say you are gone, so you might as well say you are dead.
After seeing this sentence, Fangzheng's forehead was covered with black lines. This master, even after he died, he would not forget to blackmail him!
Continue reading below.
"Disciple, you keep asking me why I don't go down the mountain.
My teacher never answered you every time, but since everyone is dead, I always have to give you an answer.
The delicacies of mountains and seas, the delicacies of the world, beauties like clouds, worshiped by thousands of people, I have also experienced it. When I was not a monk, I was a libertine. I traveled around the world and saw too many so-called human natures. Once I enlightened, I entered the world.
I gave up everything and embarked on a path of practicing Buddhism that was different from many people.
My teacher has always believed that there is no Buddha in the world. It is only because there are so many kind-hearted people that there are Buddhas. Everyone in the world is a Buddha. It does not make any sense whether or not to worship the Buddha. I should examine myself three times and see if what I am doing is worthy of my conscience.
If you are right, keep working hard. If you are sorry, correct yourself as soon as possible. Such people love to practice every day, and they will eventually achieve enlightenment and become a Buddha.
However, this theory was rejected by a few fake monks, so I fell out with them and came here to rebuild the mountain gate and try to start a career.
As a result... I found that my theory did not seem to be popular with others. People in the world pursue interests. Without profits, there is no motivation to pursue. I am very confused. Am I wrong?
After working hard for many years, I got tired, so I chose to give up, stop preaching, stop giving lectures, and settle down to be an inactive monk, just like the Taoist priest on the mountain next door, living alone in the world.
I like this kind of peace, without disputes. I work hard every day and rest at sunset, accompanied by green lanterns and ancient Buddhas.
I thought I would die so lonely and inactive, but I found that after experiencing thousands of things in the world, I came to this mountain place, calmed down, and looked back from the perspective of a bystander, and it turned out to be more thorough and clear.
, clear.
Of course, I don’t want you to follow the old path of becoming a teacher. After all, if you don’t care about the world, no matter how high your Zen philosophy is or how powerful your ability is, it will have no meaning to this world.
I hope you can be more promising, at least more promising than my teacher. But my teacher wants to remind you that no matter how wonderful the outside world is, I hope that you will always have this small ruined temple of Qingdeng Ancient Temple in your heart! Because
Only here, outside the mortal world, can you see the world from an outsider's perspective, see more clearly, think more truly, not be confused by the mortal world, and pursue your dreams according to your heart."
Here, the letter ends.
Fang Zheng was quite moved when he saw it, and said to the system sincerely: "Thank you."
The system didn't make any sound, and I don't know if it was heard.
The reason why Fang Zheng thanked the system was because the system gave him this letter at the right time. If he had followed Fang Zheng's initial mentality and read this letter to him, it would not have much effect and he would not be able to read it at all. It is estimated that it must be
You have to enter the world of mortals and have your head covered with bruises before you can rethink the value of this letter.
But it's different now. Fang Zheng has also experienced the glory of becoming more famous and famous all over the country. He can even return to the peak or even the peak state at any time as long as he wants.
But it was unnecessary. Fang Zheng suddenly became uninterested in these things. Doing good deeds and accumulating virtue is what a person should do. What he did before was too high-profile, and it was a bit overwhelming.
After all, there are six billion people in the world, and countless things happen every day, and the person who can really help most people overcome difficulties is definitely not Founder, but countless unknown heroes.
Founder's high profile has caused countless people to focus on him and ignore the unknown heroes around him. This is not a good thing.
So... Founder decided to start today, low-key, low-key, low-key...
"Ding! Congratulations, you performed very well in the earthquake this time and saved many people. You will be rewarded with a lottery draw. In addition, you saved a total of 30,000 lives and helped 1.3 million people get out of trouble. You
A total of 1.39 million merits were obtained! At the same time, your performance has been broadcast all over the world, and your reputation has already had a certain influence abroad. However, you looked like you were leaving in the end, so everyone thought
You are gone. Therefore, your reputation is cleared."
Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "1.39 million merits? And a lottery?"
"Yes, so, although you lost a lot this time, overall, you didn't lose everything." The system chuckled.
When Fang Zheng heard this, he was also happy. As for reputation? Since Fang Zheng has given up on it, why would he care about the reputation?
