Fangzheng, when the monkey heard this, he was completely speechless. This guy is simply a lazy guy who likes to eat and work, and wants to freeload! The key is, this guy is also very narcissistic!
Fang Zheng frowned, then stood up, walked over, entered the Buddhist hall, burned incense, kowtowed, and then muttered: "Bodhisattva, please protect this poor monk from becoming a Buddha as soon as possible." At the same time, he cast a dream.
Huangliang, dreaming!
Hearing this, the man was startled. Who else would ask for this? When he turned his head, the man almost jumped in fright. The man kneeling next to him turned out to be extremely familiar!
I looked up at the Buddha statue on the Ten Thousand Buddhas amulet, and then looked at the people next to me. They were exactly the same! The man was so scared that he flew away!
At this time, Fang Zheng turned around and said with a smile: "Donor, is there any problem?"
"You...you...she..." Pan An pointed at Fang Zheng and then pointed at Guanyin Bodhisattva on the Ten Thousand Buddhas tablet, and was speechless.
Fang Zheng didn't say anything and waited quietly.
Pan An swallowed and finally summoned up the courage to say: "Are you her?"
Fang Zheng nodded and said, "Yes."
"Are you a Bodhisattva?" Pan An exclaimed.
Fang Zheng continued to nod.
Seeing that Fang Zheng had a kind face and that there was no danger, Pan An became bolder and said, "Since you are a Bodhisattva, why do you still ask for help from a Bodhisattva? No, why do you still ask for yourself?"
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Because the poor monk knows that it is better to ask for help from others than to ask for yourself. If you don't work hard yourself, asking for help from others will be of no use. If the poor monk wants to become a Buddha, should he rely on himself or others? Can he rely on it?"
Pan An was stunned...
After Fang Zheng finished speaking, he stood up, left the Buddhist hall, and disappeared into a stream of light. Of course Fang Zheng couldn't fly, but it was just an illusion. He could fly at will...
Pan An was dumbfounded. If just now he thought he might be dazzled, hallucinating, or being deceived by the cosplayer, now he is completely convinced! Can ordinary people fly? Of course not! Looking back at Ten Thousand Buddhas
Pan An was confused, and then asked: "Bodhisattva, are you giving me advice?"
Unfortunately, there is no response from the Ten Thousand Buddhas amulet.
But Pan An still smiled: "Yes, it must be the Bodhisattva who is guiding me! Haha... I knew that I was destined to be extraordinary. Even the Bodhisattva came to guide me in person. The Bodhisattva is optimistic about me, how could I fail?
?Well, go back and work hard..." Muttering, Pan An left the Buddhist hall, ran out of the temple, and went down the mountain in a hurry.
The monkey stood next to Fangzheng and asked: "Master, why is this guy so awesome?"
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Some people don't have God in their hearts, but they come to ask for God. Some people have God in their hearts, and they come to ask for God. But they don't know that for things in the world, it's better to ask for help from others than from yourself."
"Master, if you say that, then why do you build a temple? Why do you need incense? Can everyone just go back and beg themselves?" The monkey scratched his head and asked in confusion.
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Seeking oneself is the best policy, seeking God is the middle policy, and giving up is the worst policy. It is precisely because there are too many people in the world who don't know how to seek oneself, who work hard and are confused, that's why there are today's gods and Buddhas in temples who don't know how to seek oneself.
The only other option is to ask gods and Buddhas. At least hope is still there. The existence of gods and Buddhas is to give people hope. At any time, if you ask gods and Buddhas, they will stand by your side and listen to your ups and downs.
And use his way to relieve the sorrow in your heart and share happiness. Otherwise, when all living beings are confused, cannot see hope, and no one can understand, it is easy to end up in a dead end."
"Then...then if everyone is seeking for themselves, wouldn't it mean that gods and Buddhas are useless?" Monkey asked worriedly.
Fang Zheng laughed loudly and said: "Everyone is seeking for themselves. The world is a spiritual mountain, and all living beings are Buddhas. Why is it useless to say it? All virtues such as understanding the mind, seeing one's nature, and perseverance are awakened from people's hearts. All living beings are Buddhas.
That’s the prosperous age.”
The monkey suddenly understood, clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha, my disciples have been taught."
Fang Zheng patted the monkey's head and returned to the Buddhist hall to chant sutras with satisfaction.
Days passed by, eating fast, chanting sutras, carrying water and farming, living leisurely and contentedly. However, on this day, Fang Zheng received an invitation from Xiaguang Temple.
Although Xiaguang Temple is not the largest temple in Jilin Province, it is also a famous temple. The temple has a history of hundreds of years and has experienced changes in dynasties, but it has never declined. Xiaguang Temple is located on Changbai Mountain and is one of the few generals.
The temple is a large temple built on Changbai Mountain.
Although they are all on the Changbai Mountains, Changbai Mountain can also be divided into broad and narrow senses. Changbai Mountain in the narrow sense refers to the southwest corner of Changbai Mountain, where the main peak of Changbai Mountain is. Changbai Mountain in the broad sense spans the three northeastern provinces and the Northeast region.
The general name of the eastern mountainous area. It starts from the northern foot of the Wanda Mountains in the north and extends to Laotie Mountain in the Qianshan Mountains in the south. It is about 1,300 kilometers long and 400 kilometers wide from east to west. It is the source of the Yalu River, Tumen River, and Songhua River.
Xiaguang Temple is located in the Changbai Mountains in Guangxi, the northeasternmost part of Jilin Province. If you go there from Fangzheng, it will take two days and two nights by car. If you transfer from Heishan City to Gulin City and then take the high-speed train, it will be faster.
But it costs more money...
Fang Zheng was sitting at the door of the temple, looking at the invitation in his hand with a depressed look on his face. Not to mention the high-speed rail, the car fare was not even enough!
Just as Fangzheng was feeling depressed, a voice suddenly came to his mind: "Is this an invitation from Xiaguang Temple?"
Fang Zheng was stunned, and looked up, only to see a girl staring with big watery eyes, curiously looking at the invitation in Fang Zheng's hand. This girl was no stranger to him, it was the calligrapher Ouyang who had competed with Fang Zheng in calligraphy.
Hua Zai's daughter Ouyang Fenghua. She has a neat ponytail, a yellow T-shirt, denim cropped pants, and canvas shoes. There are no unnecessary modifications. She is very simple and refreshing, yet invincible in youth and vitality. A pair of big eyes, very
Bright, long eyelashes, flickering and very attractive.
"Amitabha, it turns out to be the donor Ouyang." Fang Zheng stood up, clasped his hands together, and said hello.
"Oh, Master, you are too polite and too old-fashioned. This is not what I remember of you." Ouyang Fenghua winked playfully with his big eyes.
Fangzheng smiled and asked: "What does the poor monk look like in the donor's eyes?"
"Although he looks a bit old-fashioned, he is still quite an interesting person. At least he is not old-fashioned." Ouyang Fenghua wanted to say that he was sunny, handsome, and a bit elf-like, but he was afraid that Fang Zheng would be unhappy when he said this, so he changed it.
Fang Zheng smiled slightly. He really couldn't refute Ouyang Fenghua's evaluation, because he was really not a rigid person. He was a master before others and an ordinary person after others, and he was always capable of mischief.
"Thank you for the compliment, donor." Fang Zheng replied.
"Don't thank me back and forth, and don't call me donor. We are so familiar, just call me by my name. My name is Ouyang Fenghua. Everyone calls me Fenghua." Ouyang Fenghua said playfully.
Fang Zheng thought for a while and replied: "I have met Donor Ouyang."
