It's late afternoon.
The sound of many monks banging wooden fish can be heard in the main hall, which can keep people calm.
The leaves of the ancient tung tree next to the wall shone with golden light. A breeze blew by, causing the tree to sway, and a few leaves slowly fell to the ground.
Suddenly, a bell rang not far away. The sound was so clear that it seemed to penetrate people's hearts.
The two of them were walking shoulder-to-shoulder in the Fire Temple, and Jigo kept pointing at various scenery to introduce it to Uchiha Tunan.
"The history of the Fire Temple is too long. The precise written records alone can be traced back to before the samurai era."
"This is where the monks do their morning prayers."
"This is where the monks live."
.......
Uchiha Tunan listened to Jiwu's introduction and suddenly asked: "Is Master Jiwu already the abbot of the temple?"
Di Wu nodded and said: "After I came back last time, I became the host."
Uchiha Tunan nodded when he heard this, turned his head to look at a beggar huddled in the corner of the temple, and said with a puzzled look on his face:
"What is that man doing?"
Jiwu followed Uchiha Tunan's gaze and immediately sighed and said:
“That’s a frustrated person.
He used to come to the temple to burn incense and pray, and donated a lot of money for incense.
Now that he is in trouble, we can't drive him away.
Give him some porridge on time every day.
If he continues to be like this after a while, we can only send him down the mountain. "
Uchiha Tunan frowned and said, "Let him fend for himself?"
Diwu clasped his hands together, as if praying for him in his heart, and then said helplessly: "Although it is cruel, there is nothing we can do."
Uchiha Tunan was puzzled: "Can't you enlighten him?"
Di Wu pointed at a monk who was walking over with a bowl of gruel and said:
"Look over there."
The monk came to the beggar and did not rush to give him the porridge. Instead, he persuaded him:
“Donor, as long as you have no distracting thoughts, you can let go of anything.
Why bother with persistence. "
The beggar heard the voice and finally raised his head, and Uchiha Tunan finally saw the beggar's face clearly.
His eyes were hollow and lifeless, his skin was dark, and his beard was very long because it had not been trimmed for a long time, making him look extremely slovenly.
He lay on the ground and murmured:
“I lost all my family property, my wife and children have all used it to offset the debt, what else can I do?
Stop talking and start eating quickly, I'm starving. "
As he spoke, he rubbed his upper body a few times, leaned on the steps, and stretched out his hands.
Waiting for the monk to place the bowl in his hand.
Uchiha Tunan turned to Jiwu and said:
"Your method is wrong, let me try it."
Ji Wu nodded and said, "Okay."
Uchiha Tunan walked quickly towards the beggar.
Just as the monk put the bowl in the beggar's hand, Uchiha Tunan kicked the bowl to the ground.
"Snapped!"
The monk was slightly startled when he saw this, and looked towards Diwu not far away.
Jianjiwu winked at him, clasped his hands and left silently.
Uchiha Tunan stood in front of the beggar and said with an indifferent expression:
"Do you have a dream?"
The beggar sneered, as if he had heard some big joke, and leaned on the steps.
“Dreams…what’s the point.
Does erotic dream count, hahaha..."
Uchiha Tunan pointed to an abandoned broken clock in the corner and said:
"You are like that clock now, broken there.
You only do one thing every day, and that is nothing.
Your life should be like this.
I think there is no point in your life. "
Uchiha Tunan's tone was somewhat contemptuous, and he looked at the beggar condescendingly, as if he looked down on him.
The beggar reached out and rubbed his belly disapprovingly, looked up at the sky, his eyes were slightly blurred and said:
“When I used to get up and go to the fields every day.
There is a lot of energy in my heart.
that time.
What I look forward to every day is when it will start.
But now the energy in my heart is gone.
All I think about every day is when it will end. "
Uchiha Tunan sneered, with a look of disdain:
“You said you had thought about when to start.
So have you started?
No right.
You will always make excuses for yourself.
Push things to a future date.
But what if that day comes?
You'll give yourself more time again.
You don't want to work hard at all.
You just want to find a shortcut to success.
Even if the consequences of failure can break you to pieces.
People like you are not suitable to survive in this world. "
The beggar smiled indifferently, maybe because he felt too hungry.
He turned over with difficulty, put his hands on the ground, and wanted to lick the gruel on the ground.
"Bang."
Uchiha Tunan stepped on the gruel and said viciously:
“I beg here every day just for a sip of porridge.
None of my dogs will eat this kind of thing.
You bark like a dog, and I will ask the monk to give you another bowl. "
Perhaps Uchiha Tunan's words were too harsh and stimulated the beggar's humble self-esteem.
At this time, the beggar's face was full of anger and he stood up suddenly.
Because of his height, he looked down at Uchiha Tunan and shouted to him hoarsely:
"What do you know!
I tried my best.
But has anyone given me a chance? "
Uchiha Tunan narrowed his eyes, stretched out his hand, grabbed the beggar's collar, and pulled him forward.
The huge drag force caused the beggar to kneel on the ground, looking up at Uchiha Tunan.
Uchiha Tunan said slowly in a deep voice:
"Do you have a chance if you stay here all day?
When you can't find hope.
You should learn to change yourself.
The biggest liar in life is actually ourselves.
Because we always want to change others.
And refuse to change yourself. "
As he spoke, he dragged the beggar, who was like a dead dog, to the avenue and pointed to the main hall at the end of the avenue.
He said in a tone that sounded like he was stating the facts:
“Look inside, look at those people.
What they do in times of pain and difficulty.
They are praying to gods and Buddhas and hypnotizing themselves with false beliefs.
Let yourself be immersed in sweet dreams.
Do you know what the greatest pain in life is? "
Having said this, Uchiha Tunan lowered his head, looked directly into the beggar's eyes, and said word by word:
"I woke up from the dream and had no way to go."
After saying that, he pushed the beggar to the ground.
The beggar just lay on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, his eyes filled with despair.
"I'm already like this...I can't be saved..."
Uchiha Tunan squatted down in front of him, grabbed his collar, and roared:
"You are already like this, will it get worse if you try harder?
What's stopping you?
Are you scared!
Afraid of taking the first step towards everything you should have.
Afraid of making the wrong choice from the beginning.
Afraid of trying my best.
But in the end I found myself useless.
right!
You are afraid.
So you deserve to be paralyzed here every day, laughing at yourself in your heart.
Fuck you!
This is it for my whole life..."
