Therefore, if the lamplight is not accompanied by the lamplight, it is completely an idiot, because he is an idiot to begin with.
What Deng Xin thinks, wants to do, and wants to say are all reflected in Deng Huo. Deng Huo is like a puppet, without thoughts and opinions, and is completely controlled by Deng Xin's thought power.
The light is only a real light when the lamp heart is not there.
And Dengxin was happy and carefree, continuing to act like an idiot.
"When it comes to 'nothing', Dengxin is actually close to 'nothing'. He can ignore everything and only rely on the lights to express himself when needed. The lights are just like his five senses," Polu sighed and said with a wry smile: " But as time goes by, we have become accustomed to treating Djinn as an idiot for the sake of convenience."
Yan Kong couldn't help but admire Yun Kong's keen observation: "So that's it, Deng Xin is the real master." He didn't expect his junior brother to be so smart.
Soon, the Zhike monk who had just met at the mountain gate came over and said, "Your guest rooms are ready. I will take you there right now."
"Thank you."
In this way, the three masters and disciples lived in the temple.
Every morning, Yun Kong first goes to the temple to study with the lights - actually the lights - and then goes back to learn Taoism with Po Lu in the afternoon. Of course Iwakora did not miss the opportunity and studied in this quiet environment.
A month later, Deng Xin Deng Huo already had a good grasp of Yun Kong's situation.
One night, they made an appointment with Po Lu and asked him, "Do you still want to help your little apprentice open his eyes?"
"Yes, you also know that he has experienced dangers in the past. He can open his eyes and see what others cannot see, which is beneficial to his own safety."
"Let's not talk about it for now. Does my friend know that in Buddhism, the Heavenly Eye is one of the five supernatural powers?"
"Know." The five supernatural powers are the power of divine eyes, the power of heavenly ears, the power of other minds, the power of divine feet, and the power of destiny.
"Old friend, then, you should know that if you practice the supreme Dharma and gain enlightenment to escape from birth and death, you will gain the sixth magical power, "the power of all leaks." In fact, you will transcend reincarnation and have no death or rebirth." Generally speaking, religious practice only talks about five magical powers, but Buddhism There is the concept of six supernatural powers, "If you only seek the celestial eye, wouldn't you give up the big and seek the small?"
Po Lu raised his eyebrows and said, "Is this little disciple like Pindao so capable? Can he survive life and death?"
Deng Huo shook his head gently: "His fate is too deep. Although it is difficult to turn a thousand hooks in one moment or three, but given time and the opportunity comes, it may not be impossible."
"You also know that if you want him to cultivate the Heavenly Eye, I'm afraid it will be too late."
"Although not necessarily, it is." Deng Huo nodded and thought for a while, then said: "It is said in the scriptures that there are five ways to obtain supernatural powers: cultivation, birth, mantra, medicine, karma..."
Polu knew that the round light technique he taught Yan Kong and the armor and horse technique that Yan Kong learned from others were magical powers activated by spells. Once the effectiveness of the spell disappears, the magical powers will also disappear. This is "the completion of the curse." .
"Actually... Yun Kong has his own magical powers. Perhaps he acquired them in his previous life, or brought them from his previous life..."
After hearing this, Polu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, feeling excited in his heart: "Really?"
"But there is a power within him that seems unwilling to allow supernatural powers to manifest."
The more Polu listened, the more curious he became.
"There is no need to worry, old friend. Maybe when the time comes, he will manifest his magical powers without us needing to interfere."
Then Deng Huo started chatting, asking Po Lu about his experiences in traveling around the world. No matter how Po Lu tried, he never brought the topic back to Yun Kong.
Time flies.
Too fast to feel.
No matter you are busy or free, time still flies by.
So between these three sentences, another four years have passed in this story.
Yun Kong is already a sixteen-year-old boy.
Four years have allowed him to grow from a child to a tall and thin man, and his childish voice to a gentle one.
For four years, he read many books.
He himself also wondered how a small Yinshan Temple could have so many books.
There are not many monks in Yinshan Temple, there are only seventeen in total, and the others either come and leave, or leave and come again.
Each of these fixed monks has his or her own duties, regardless of their status.
For example, Abbot Denghuo specializes in cleaning toilets.
Although the three masters and apprentices of Polu were Taoist priests staying in the Buddhist temple, they were also assigned jobs. Polu helped to make the required ink, red ink, gold ink and various painting pigments in the paper and ink workshop in the temple, and used the surrounding dense bamboo forests as raw materials to make Various thick and thin papers required by the temple. But Yankong was in good health, so he went to the vegetable garden to help.
Yunkong was younger and was not idle. In addition to studying with the three masters, he also helped prepare food in the kitchen in the morning and spent the rest of the time in the library.
As he got older, he could reach higher books on the shelves each year.
The library is divided into five major areas: Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, History, and Collections. Yun Kong browsed through the titles of each area before starting to select books to read.
There are of course a large number of Buddhist scriptures in the library. In addition to manuscripts and individual printed copies, the temple actually houses a set of "Kai Baobao" published by Song Taizu a hundred years ago, which collects all contemporary Buddhist scriptures. . Having said that, this is China's first set of stereotyped printing of the Tripitaka.
We also collected a lot of Taoist scriptures and arranged them in categories. The books were numbered so that they could be put in the right place when they were put back. These are all the materials for the class.
Various Confucian classics and weft books are also displayed according to categories, and the categories of "Zhouyi" are also listed separately to facilitate research.
"History" books include official revised histories, as well as some unorganized official and private historical materials, including dialogues between emperors and ministers such as "Zhenguan Zhengyao" in the Tang Dynasty and "Cefu Yuangui" in this dynasty, and even some works compiled by Sima Guang, a famous official in modern times. However, "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" was published only thirteen years ago and became popular all over the world.
The collection of "collections" is rich, ranging from pre-Qin scholars, geography books such as "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and "Shui Jing Zhu", to the Six Dynasties Zhiguai, Tang Dynasty poetry collections, notebook novels, and famous people who passed away two years ago. There are the encyclopedic "Mengxi Bi Tan" written by Chen Shen Kuo, the 1,000-volume "Taiping Yulan" compiled by Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty, the 500-volume "Taiping Guangji", and the "Wenyuan Yinghua".
Yun Kong was already literate, but he had never seen so many books before. Going to the library of Yinshan Temple was like entering a treasure house, and he couldn't bear to leave as soon as he entered.
Scholars often came to visit, staying for a few days to several months. Some came to copy books, and some came to concentrate on studying to prepare for exams. Yun Kong also tried to talk to them and listened to them talk about the principles of governing the world.
After staying in this environment for a long time, the knowledge in Yun Kong's head became richer and richer.
But there are so many books here.
He couldn't finish it at all.
Even if he reads one book a day, he still can't finish it.
One day, while he was hiding in the bamboo forest and reading "Guiguzi", the lamplight appeared silently behind him. He was secretly surprised and did not forget to stand up and salute.
Dengxin smiled, and Denghuo asked: "What do you think of this book?"
Yun Kong tilted his head and thought, and said: "You can kill people when you are young, and destroy the country when you are big; you can save people when you are small, and protect the country when you are big; you can be strategist in troubled times, but you can cultivate yourself in peace."
Dengxin smiled, and Denghuo said: "Okay." Then he said: "You have read many and varied books. How many books have you read in these years?"
Yun Kong shook his head, he didn't remember, unless he counted them one by one.
"What have you gained from reading so many books?"
Before Yun Kong could answer, Deng Huo asked again: "What you got from the book, how much did you use?"
"How much did you understand from this?"
"How long can you live?"
"How much knowledge does the world have?"
"If you were going to die soon, would you still hold the book?"
After asking ten questions in a rapid succession, the lamplight immediately turned around and left.
Leaving Yunkong behind, I stood alone under the pine tree, as if I had been hit too hard. I forgot to listen to the cool mountain breeze blowing the pine needles, forgot to appreciate the beautiful mountains, and forgot to breathe the air without a particle of dust. Forget what you want to think about.
It took a long time before he took a breath.
He ran to his master Po Lu and told him about it.
Po Lu smiled and said, "They are giving you the 'Shen Hua Tou'."
"Referring to Hua Tou" is one of the practices of Zen Buddhism to induce enlightenment. The ancestors raised a question and asked the practitioners to think about it. At the moment when the thinking suddenly stopped, the true nature was revealed. The lamplight used continuous pressing questions, leaving Yunkong no time to think.
"So, are you participating?"
"My disciple is stupid and only thinks of a sentence from "Zhuangzi: The Master of Health" taught by the master."
