[Journey to the West] Empty Enlightenment Bodhi

Bodhi waited for the people below to calm down, and then said: "Tao, the law is natural, but outside of nature, if there is spare power, it can be changed. This is how to give back to the source. We draw strength from the source, and when we are strong, we can change it. It is also natural to give back to the source, like a crow feeding back, and it is also a way of Taoism to follow nature. Then, after everyone here is strong, how will you give back to the source?"

Lu Ming chewed the snacks in his mouth, and couldn't wait to answer: "Support your parents. Treat your parents like a jewel in your palm, give priority to your parents' wishes, and try your best to fulfill your parents' wishes."

Shen Ran smiled calmly: "Love nature. Protect nature."

Shi Zhi was determined, but when she looked at the ancestor, she showed an expression that needed the affirmation of the ancestor. The woman standing at the highest point of Dao Valley looked at the ancestor, and said her dream very firmly: " Protect the weak, the old and the disabled. If one day, Shi Zhi is able to prove the Tao, he will build a kingdom with his own hands, so that many old, weak, sick and disabled can work in the city, and the young and strong will protect the city. .”

Bodhi nodded slightly, but didn't make a statement at the moment, but turned around again, facing the only little hozen in the audience that showed its original shape.

"Wukong," Bodhi said with a long tone, and his words were quite calm. At this moment, he seemed to be a real teacher, guiding this little monkey who didn't even bother to transform himself, step by step to the place where he belonged. Regarding his way, "After hearing so much, do you understand?"

Wukong responded: "The source, the source. The source."

All the Taoists held their breath and waited quietly for the next article.Unexpectedly, after the little monkey finished answering this sentence, he sat down cross-legged without saying anything.

Several disciples of the Buddhist school who came to listen clapped their hands and laughed, exclaiming: "Good comprehension, good comprehension! Wukong really got the word enlightenment right! The original one, the original one, the original one! What a good one, the original one! Good! An exquisite and translucent little monkey! It’s our group of Buddhas who practice physiognomy.”

Bodhi smiled, "You laughed at Shizhi earlier, so I'll ask you now, which book did you get the answer from?"

Wukong: "Master only says whether it is right or not."

Bodhi shook his head and smiled: "There is no right or wrong in the word Tao, let alone right or wrong."

Wukong chuckled: "That's right!"

Lu Ming and Lu Ping shook their heads, only Shi Zhi muttered to himself, "There is no right or wrong in the word of Tao, let alone right or wrong?" After saying this three times, Shi Zhi's eyes brightened , "That's right, there is a word for Tao, there are personal fates, there is no right or wrong, let alone others," Shi Zhi stood up, and bowed respectfully to Wukong, "Shi Zhi FK U."

Wukong jumped hurriedly and waved his hands: "Don't thank me, Master said this, not me."

Shi Zhi looked at Wukong until Wukong felt weak and fuzzy, then Shi Zhi smiled and said: "I am confused, I should thank Master."

"That's it, that's it." Wukong echoed with a smile, turned his head and flattered Master, "Master is wise and mighty—"

"Come on," Bodhi interrupted the performance of the only little hozen present, "tell me how to give back to the origin."

Little Wukong sat there carelessly, his legs were no longer crossed, and he had the air of a second uncle: "If you really let me say, there is no need to give back to this source. Since you have benefited from the source, then There is a karma of its own, and the origin cares for you, and it is not expecting you to give back, just stick to this heart."

The crowd was in an uproar again.

If it is said that what this little Wukong said is wrong, but there is no breakthrough to refute it; if he admits that what this little Wukong said is right, it will go against his previous cognition.

Everyone in the Taoist school was embarrassed, but the disciples of the Buddhist school clapped their hands and laughed again: "There is a saying in Confucianism that if three people walk together, there must be a teacher. If you are honest, you can't deceive me. The disciples have been taught today." The disciples discussed the Buddhist scriptures with the little monkey, and several people even discussed that they planned to let the little monkey go to the Buddhist sect for a few days and open an altar to give lectures.

Patriarch Bodhi will not open the altar for many years, and will not take special care of the children of any school when opening the altar.The practice of these Buddhist disciples relies on understanding, without proper communication, let alone advance, I am afraid that they will retreat.Seeing a natural buddhist seedling now, he is even more reluctant to let go, wishing to disguise himself as a golden body, smuggle out of Dao Valley, and move back to his own Buddhist territory.

After the meeting was over, everyone left in the clouds and fog, except the little monkey, who stayed for a while because he was discussing the Dharma with the Buddha.At this moment, he pulled a cloud and turned three somersaults in succession before he climbed up.

"Little monkey, come here." Patriarch Bodhi stood on the cloud and waved to the little monkey.

The little monkey rode towards the cloud and bowed: "Why is the master calling the disciple?"

"Look closely at you monkey climbing the clouds."

"Tengyun is very good, but Master wants to say that I climb clouds," the little monkey muttered, "Why does Master like to bury people in this life?"

"You soaring the clouds, you are really embarrassing to the fairy world." Bodhi waved his hand, and personally demonstrated the real cloud-climbing technique to Wukong, "Everyone in the fairy world, when flying clouds and fog, they all use their hind legs, shift their center of gravity back, and fall their feet. However, you are just pulling and pulling, isn't it climbing the cloud?"

"But the auspicious cloud is 1.5 meters long, and my disciple is only 1.3 meters." The little monkey was unconvinced. "Others will go up the cloud when their center of gravity falls. If my center of gravity falls, I will probably be covered in mud."

Bodhi laughed and said, "I see you climbing the clouds—" the little monkey glared at Bodhi with his waist thrust into his waist, with a dissatisfied expression on his face. I will teach you to follow Dou Yun."

"Don't learn, don't learn," the little monkey shook his head, "It's too ugly."

"Oh, forget it if you don't learn it," Bodhi teased him with a drawn-out tone, "Then you just wait for someone to drag you off by your hind legs when you do somersaults."

"Hey," the little monkey rolled his eyeballs, "Master, why don't you change its name, I'll learn after changing the name. Change the name, change the name."

Bodhi casually made a move and summoned a cloud, but this cloud was thicker than other clouds, it just looked taller.

"This cloud is for you. You can change the name yourself." Bodhi pushed the cloud in front of Wukong and stood with his arms folded. If you stumble and get up, you have already turned somersaults and ran far away, and you will definitely not be able to catch up."

"That's good, that's good," the little monkey hopped around the cloud twice, stretched out his hand to pull it, and then said happily, "Since the quality of this cloud looks good, it's much stronger than the cheap ones like Huan Yun Jue. When my old grandson called the cloud, he no longer had to worry about breaking the auspicious cloud. Since this cloud looks so muscular, why don't we call it somersaulting cloud."

"It's up to you," Bodhi stood in the distance as usual, "You try it first and let me see, if there is something that needs to be improved, let me know."

"Okay, okay." Wukong responded hastily, and he really jumped up while pulling the cloud, turned somersault, and shouted, "Good cloud, good cloud."

This trip is one hundred and eight thousand miles.

As soon as Wukong finished this somersault, he arrived at his yard.Looking again, Bodhi had long since disappeared. Wukong thought on the spot, thinking that it would not be too late to go to Sanxing Cave to thank him at night, so let's see where this somersaulting cloud is playing.

So, the naughty little monkey turned somersaults in four directions, southeast, north, south, and north, but in a short while, he walked around the bodhi illusion.

The pit on the west side that Lu Ming pointed to earlier is not only in the west, but also in the four directions of east, west, north and south.The four pits are almost located at the corners of the entire Bodhi Illusion, and if you go outside, it will be deserted.

The little monkey thought to himself, if Shen Ran is the general guarding the lower realm, what are the other three pits?Look at the appearance of the pit, probably some old trees.

Wukong purposely pressed the head of the cloud to look at it. The pit to the west exuded a faint fragrance, which was like a fragrance of Buddha. He had just smelled it on the body of Buddha Xiu.The little monkey frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly realized.

This is agarwood.

No wonder Shen Ran is called Shen Ran.It turns out that the body is agarwood.

The little monkey turned around again and again, but never saw the person he knew again.So he returned to the yard resentfully, and a somersault just stopped in the sky above the yard.

The sun was shining, and the little monkey lowered his head, as if a light flashed across the sapling.

The little monkey took a closer look and found that there was a small fruit hanging on the bodhi tree.

Turning back to the yard, the little monkey immediately jumped onto the tree, ignoring the swaying leaves of the young sapling, and went straight to the round and dusty bead tree.

"Rogue, smelly rascal," the little sapling couldn't stop the little monkey's bad behavior, so he could only curse a few rascals to vent his anger.

"Bodhi son?"

This discovery was so shocking that the little monkey yelled out.

"Are you a bodhi tree?"

The little sapling ignored him and swung the branches, intending to smoke the stinky rascal.

The little monkey held the pitiful fruit of the young sapling in his hand, and when he intended to study it carefully, the bodhi seed that had been hanging around his neck suddenly flashed a light and fell into the fruit.

At the same time, the little monkey fell to the ground, and when he raised his eyes again, another scene was in front of him.

The little sapling sitting on the stone still exudes a positive attitude of "facing the sun, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming". This time, the little monkey was completely invisible, and the little sapling didn't see him at all.Wukong lay on the trunk of the young sapling, looking at the farewell picture below.

"Isn't the ax used to create the world last time still broken?" the man in red said in a flat tone.

"I want a pair of swords to deal with the water monsters. The ax is not easy to use. I want to change to a pair of swords." The man in white frowned, convinced that the man in red couldn't do anything about him, so he pushed even further." I want the handle with your name on it."
