Chapter 588 The Zen of the Old Monk

Li Zhi had a dream, which was very evocative, thought-provoking, and elusive. In the dream, Li Zhi went to a place that controlled time and space, a thousand planes, and everything in the world.

In that mysterious place, there is a chair, a huge metal chair. As long as he sits on it, he can control this plane of the universe, control the vast world, control all living beings, and let the living beings in these planes serve him and be subject to him.

Slavery!

In the dream, Li Zhi couldn't remember whether he sat on the supreme ancient metal throne. He only remembered that the chair was very old and exuded the aura of eternity, decay, and decay.

"Wake up!"

Opening her eyes, Mu Xiaomei was blinking and looking at him playfully.

Li Zhi grinned and said, "What time is it? Why didn't you wake me up when you woke up?"

"You're sleeping like a little pig, how can you wake me up?" Mu Xiaomei said with a smile, "It's not too late now, it's not even nine o'clock!"

For office workers who work nine to five, this time is already on their way to the company, but for those "lazy people", it is indeed not too late.

Li Zhi smiled. Mu Xiaomei must have deliberately not woken him up. Her little thoughts could never be hidden from Li Zhi.

He sat up, looked at Mu Xiaomei and asked, "What are your plans for today?"

"I'll go to class later. I'm a good student. I have class today!" Mu Xiaomei said with a smile. She knew that Li Zhi was a busy person and had many things to do. He definitely couldn't spend all day with her like before.

Already.

She didn't ask for that, as long as he came over to see her in a few days and didn't forget about her, that was enough.

"By the way, Zhuge Meili called you this morning and said that he had something very important to see you for." Mu Xiaomei said.

Zhuge is beautiful?

Li Zhi thought it was because of the "Hongyu Meat Joint Factory" thing, so he wasn't too worried and said with a smile: "I know!"

"Don't you need to call her back?" Mu Xiaomei sat up and asked with a smile.

Li Zhi shook his head and said with a smile: "No, if there is an emergency, she will know to call me again!"

"You!" Mu Xiaomei rolled her eyes at him charmingly, stood up from the bed, and walked to the bathroom to wash up.

The sun is already high, it’s time to get up long ago!

"Boss, Miss Zhuge Meili called again, do you want to answer the call?" The interstellar watch on his hand flashed, and Xiaobing appeared in front of him and asked.

Compared with the 'smart watch T' manufactured by Binghun Mobile Phone Company, the interstellar watch purchased by Li Zhi from the Interstellar Merchant Alliance is more advanced.

"Take it over!"

Li Zhi leaned on the bedside and said.

The video call was connected. Zhuge Meili looked at Li Zhi, who was leaning on the bedside with his naked upper body. He was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said unhappily: "I've been calling you since the morning, why haven't I called you until now?"

Answer? What time is it? You haven’t gotten up yet. Are you a pig?"

Li Zhi rolled his eyes and said angrily: "If you have something to say, tell me quickly. If you have nothing to do, get out. It's useless to talk to you when I don't have time!"

Zhuge was so angry that his teeth were itching, and he had no idea what to do.

He took a deep breath and managed to calm down his anger. He glared at Li Zhi and said, "I was asked to bring you a message from Boss Li. He wants to see you!"

"Want to see me? Who is it?" Li Zhi was stunned for a moment and asked curiously. He thought Zhuge Meili wanted to say that the "Red Rain Meat Joint Factory" matter was settled and he wanted to ask for money from him!

"Wise Old Monk!"

"Who?" Li Zhi sat up from the bed.

Zhuge Meili snorted. She really didn't want to talk to the other party. If the other party wasn't a big deal, she wouldn't have anything to say to this guy!

"Zen Master Zhiweng, one of the few eminent monks and living Buddhas to this day!" Zhuge Meili explained.

Eminent monk? Living Buddha?

Li Zhi couldn’t figure out why this ‘Zen Master Zhi Weng’ wanted to see him? It seems that everyone is not familiar with him, right?

He frowned and said, "Can you explain yourself more clearly?"

Zhuge Meili stared at Li Zhidao: "Zen Master Zhiweng has something in his heart. He doesn't have much time left in this world. Before leaving, I want to see you!"

After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but say: "Zen Master Zhiweng is different from others. He is a living Buddha. Perhaps, he can save you!"

"Save me?" Li Zhi couldn't help laughing and said, "Is there anyone in this world who can save me?"

Zhuge Meili looked at Li Zhi and said quietly: "Maybe there is!"

"See you or not, give me a clear explanation so that I can convey it to others!" Zhuge Meili said.

"See!"

I don’t know why, but Li Zhi didn’t refuse.

Zhuge Meili breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Okay, where are you? I'll send someone to pick you up now. Let's move faster, we don't have much time!"

“College Town!”

Li Zhi hung up Zhuge Meili's video call, frowned, looked at Xiaobing beside him and asked, "Is there any information about 'Zen Master Zhiweng'?"

"have!"

Xiaobing directly took out what Li Zhi wanted to see.

After reading it, Li Zhi couldn't help but take a deep breath and then got up from the bed.

"Is something wrong?" Mu Xiaomei came out of the bathroom after washing up.

"Yeah!" Li Zhi looked at her handsome and beautiful appearance and couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her on the face. He chuckled and said, "It smells so good!"

"It's disgusting, I haven't brushed my teeth yet, it stinks!" Mu Xiaomei blushed and hit him with her pink fist.

The atmosphere is very ambiguous. After knowing each other for so long, the pink tone has never dissipated. Perhaps this has something to do with the fact that both of them are trying hard to maintain it.

Mu Xiaomei left. It was very close to the Hainan University campus, so there was no need for Li Zhi to send her there. She had another class later.

Zhuge Meili personally came to pick up Li Zhi.

After getting on the bus, Zhuge Meili looked at Li Zhi and asked: "Come to the university town to pick up a girl again?"

Li Zhi was too lazy to pay attention to her, and asked curiously: "Why did Zen Master Zhiweng think of wanting to see me?"

Zhuge Meili shook his head and said: "How did I know this? Zen Master Zhiweng's Taoism is several times higher than mine. Everything he knows is a secret! In our circle, this is what he does!"

As he said that, Zhuge Meili gave a thumbs up.

Regarding "Zen Master Zhi Weng", it can be seen that Zhuge Meili is also very convinced.

"Hey, I really don't want the old monk to die!" Zhuge Meili was quite happy at first, but then for some reason, she became a little silent while leaning on the seat, with red eyes.

"Do you know Zen Master Zhiweng?" Li Zhi asked.

Zhuge Meili nodded and said: "When I was very young, I knew the old monk and even plucked his beard."

"Where is Zen Master Zhiweng now?" Li Zhi frowned.

"Little Leiyin Temple!"

Li Zhi didn't ask where Xiaoleiyin Temple was, and followed Zhuge Meili directly to the airport, and then got on a special plane to Hangzhou.

Got on another helicopter!

Along the way, Li Zhi didn't ask many questions, and Zhuge Meili didn't talk as much as before because she was not in a good mood.

The helicopter stopped in front of a simple temple, and Li Zhi and Zhuge Meili walked off together.

"This is Xiaoleiyin Temple?" Li Zhi looked at the temple door and asked.

Zhuge Meili also raised his head, looked at it, nodded and said: "Yes, this is Xiaoleiyin Temple, one of the few places in the world where true scriptures are stored!"

"True scripture?" Li Zhi was stunned for a moment.

Moreover, Zhuge Meili ignored him and walked directly towards the temple gate.

Li Zhi thought for a moment, then followed and walked in.

"Miss Zhuge, please stay!"

A little bald monk in gray clothes stopped Zhuge Meili and Li Zhi.

"What are you doing?" Zhuge Meili stared at the young monk and said angrily: "I want to go in to see the old monk, do you want to stop me?"

The young monk seemed a little afraid of Zhuge Meili, shook his head, and said timidly: "It's not that the young monk wants to stop you, it's the master's order to let you stay!"

"Why?" Zhuge Meili stared and asked with a slight blush: "I want to see the old monk for the last time, but can't I?"

well!

The young monk in gray clothes sighed, shook his head and said: "My master said that he no longer wants to be involved in the world. He comes cleanly and goes cleanly. Cause and effect follow each other. Fate gathers and disperses. It does not increase, does not decrease, and does not return.

Don't be stubborn, even if you go in, the master doesn't want to see you, even if he is sitting right in front of you, you won't be able to see him!"

After a slight pause, he added: "Why do you have to be so persistent?"

"Little monk, you...just wait for me!" Zhuge Meili turned around and walked out of the mountain gate with red eyes!

Li Zhi touched his nose and really couldn't understand what the two of them meant.

After Zhuge Meili left, the young monk in gray clothes put his hands together and said respectfully: "Li Shi, my master has been here for a long time. Please come in!"

"Please!" Li Zhi extended his hand and responded politely.

In front of an ancient Zen room, the young monk stopped and said in a slightly sad voice: "Please come in, my master is staying in the world, just waiting for you to come, Master Li, and no outsiders will see you!"

Li Zhi didn't ask any questions, opened the door of the meditation room and walked in!

Seeing the familiar scene in the Zen room, but it was empty, the young monk sighed, stepped forward with red eyes, and closed the door of the Zen room.

To say that you don’t see it is to see it, but to say it is not to be seen is to say that it is not to be seen.

"Coming!"

The little monk couldn't see it, but Li Zhi could.

The Zen room was peaceful and the light was not dim. There was an old monk sitting inside, boiling water and making tea.

"Are you Zen Master Zhiweng?" Li Zhi looked at the red-faced old monk and was stunned for a moment. He didn't have any death energy on his body and his complexion was rosy. He didn't look like someone about to pass away.

"Haha, that beautiful girl likes to call me old monk. I also like people to call me old monk. You can also call me old monk. Come on, come and have tea!"

Zen Master Zhiweng smiled and waved to Li Zhi, gesturing for him to come over and sit down.

Li Zhi was not the kind of person who would be polite to outsiders, so he walked over directly and sat opposite the old monk.

"You have a lot of things in your heart that you want to ask, don't you? Don't be in a hurry to say it. Come on, let's drink a cup of tea first. The old monk has great experience in making tea. This can be regarded as the last pot of tea I drink in this world.

Old monk and layman Li taste it together!" Zen Master Zhiweng smiled, picked up the teapot, placed a cup of tea in front of Li Zhi, and poured himself a cup of tea at the same time.

"please!"

Li Zhi didn't say anything. He picked up the teacup, put it in front of his nose and smelled it. To be honest, Li Zhi didn't know how to drink tea.

This cup of tea has no aroma, fragrance, or taste at all, just like boiled water.

He raised his head and poured a cup of tea into his mouth.

When the tip of his tongue touched the tea, a bitterness spread, passed through the taste buds, and directly entered the brain, making Li Zhi almost spit it out.

It's bitter, it's really bitter. What kind of tea is this? It's just bitter water!

"Haha!" Zen Master Zhiweng smiled, drank all the tea in front of him, and then said with a smile: "Isn't it very bitter?"

"Yes!" Li Zhi smiled bitterly and nodded. It was not only painful, it was simply too painful.

"I feel very bitter too!" Zen Master Zhiweng said with a smile and nod.

"The first cup of tea is so bitter, what does the old monk mean?" Li Zhi looked at Zen Master Zhiweng opposite and asked.

If the other party calls me to come, there must be something to tell. Maybe the story lies in this pot of tea.

Unexpectedly, Zen Master Zhiweng laughed, shook his head and said, "No!"

"No?" Li Zhi was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, no, this is just a pot of bitter tea. It tastes bitter. There is no meaning. It's just that I, the old monk, like to drink bitter tea!" Zen Master Zhiweng shook his head with a smile.

"..."

Zen Master Zhiwen poured another cup of tea for Li Zhi: "Here, let's try this second cup!"

Hearing this, Li Zhi raised his teacup and drank the tea again. It was still as bitter as the first cup!

"Is this cup of tea still bitter?" Zen Master Zhiweng asked while drinking tea.

"Bitter!" Li Zhi nodded.

Zen Master Zhiweng smiled and said, "How does it compare with the first cup?"

Li Zhi thought for a while and said with a wry smile: "The taste is almost the same, both are bitter!"

"Then try this last cup!" Old monk Zhi Weng smiled and filled another cup for Li Zhi.

Li Zhi thought about it. Of the three cups of tea, the first two were bitter. Maybe the last cup would be sweet. After all the bitterness, the joy came. As a result, the last cup was still bitter, just like the first, second and third cups.

There is no difference in the taste at all, it is indeed a pot of bitter tea.

"Is it still bitter?" the old monk Zhiweng asked with a smile.

Li Zhi rolled his eyes and suddenly smiled and said: "It's not bitter anymore, the last cup is sweet!"

"Haha, it's good if it's sweet. Yours is sweet, but mine is still bitter!" Old monk Zhi Weng chuckled and said: "People, from birth, are like this pot of tea, whether it is bitter or sweet, it

Just a pot of tea."

"Young man, you don't understand!" Li Zhi shook his head and looked at the old monk, hoping that the other party could explain his confusion to him.

The old monk Zhi Weng said with a smile: "You don't understand, and I don't understand either. We drink the same pot of tea. I drank three cups, and all three cups were bitter, but you drank three cups, and two cups were bitter.

It’s sweet.”

"..." Li Zhi touched his nose and said dumbfounded: "I was lying to you!"

The old monk Zhi Weng chuckled and said: "That's why I'm telling you that I don't understand either. If I really do understand, wouldn't I be just talking nonsense like you?"

"Human, this life is like tea, it is bitter!"

Zen Master Zhiweng picked up the teapot and when he wanted to pour tea, he found that the teapot was empty. He looked up at Li Zhi and said with a smile: "Even if it is bitter, I want to drink it again!"

"Go ahead. The road ahead for Master Li is too long. It is definitely not what I, the old monk, can compare with. Your pot of tea has just been brewed. Drink it slowly. Drink it slowly. Don't be in a hurry!"

The old monk smiled, waved his hand, and signaled Li Zhi to go! (To be continued)
