Household monks have to return to vulgarity

"The Sutra of Perfect Enlightenment": If there are all kinds of nature in the world.Oviparous viviparous wet life and metaplasia.All because of □□ and life.When knowing reincarnation, love is the foundation.There are various desires.Promote love.This is why life and death can continue.

"The reason why all living beings reincarnate in the six realms is love as the root, and greed helps life and love. It can make all living beings continue to live and die."

Because of love, life after life continues to reincarnate.Because of greed, love will not be annihilated, and the cycle of life and death will continue.Greed includes the obsession to see each other, as well as the desire for a lover.

The Buddhists once said that five hundred times of looking back in the previous life is exchanged for a rubbing of shoulders in this life.If it wasn't for that shoulder brushing, I wouldn't be obsessed with endless reincarnation.But for ordinary disciples, they don't remember the memory before reincarnation, and they can't see the cause and effect of the next life.No one can really understand the meaning of reincarnation unless it is a master with great wisdom in just one life or a master who has practiced for thousands of years.

Wen Renyan put down the book in his hand, quietly watching the chirping birds and the pattering rain outside the window.On the day Mu Wan was going to marry her, he returned to Xuyuan Temple from the capital all night long. He could feel Mu Wan's close following along the way, but he didn't have the courage to turn his head back.

It was early in the morning when I returned to Xuyuan Temple, and I happened to meet Bai Qingzhu coming out of the meditation room, and I was shocked to see Wen Renyan stumbling down the long steps alone in the rain.Wen Renyan didn't care about Bai Qingzhu's surprised face, she threw herself into his senior brother's arms and began to cry.

"What, what's the matter? Don't cry, don't cry." Bai Qingzhu was stunned for a while, then put the umbrella over his head, and patted his back lightly.While Wen Renyan was crying, Bai Qingzhu also saw that not far from the steps, Prince Mu was standing there with his hands behind his back and drenched in the rain.In the rain, Prince Mu lowered his eyes lightly, letting the merciless rainwater pat on his black hair one after another.

Seeing Bai Qingzhu, Prince Mu shook his head, signaling him not to speak, Bai Qingzhu nodded slightly, stroked Wen Renyan's back and said softly, "It's cold outside, I see you've been shivering, are you cold? Go back first."

Hearing the long-lost voice, Wen Renyan sobbed a bit, feeling that he was very embarrassed just now.Then he followed Bai Qingzhu back to his meditation room.His meditation room is still the same as when he left, even though it has been a year since he left, this meditation room has been cleaned well, the yard is full of bamboo leaves, and there is no yellow fallen leaves to disturb the quiet yard, which surprised Wen Renyan.

The meditation room was also cleaned cleanly, except that there were no books and clothes, it seemed that people lived here every day.Wen Renyan sat on the bed with some nostalgia, and touched the candlestick by the bed.

"I'll bring you a bowl of ginger soup." Bai Qingzhu gave Wen Renyan a piece of clothing, because Wen Renyan was in a hurry to come back and didn't bring any clothes, so Bai Qingzhu took off her clothes and put them on him, and went to Paowu brought a bowl of ginger soup, and when Wen Renyan finally warmed up, he asked him what was wrong.

"...It's nothing." Wen Renyan put down Jiangtang, put his hands on his knees, and silently didn't want to speak.How should he say this?

"...Your senior brother, I'm not Master Xu Shi, nor Abbot Xuanxi, so I can't see any troubles in you. But I seem to have seen Prince Mu...he was drenched in the rain, you...would you like it? To see him?" Although he didn't know what happened, Bai Qingzhu probably guessed that it was about Prince Mu.

"...I don't want to see him!" Wen Renyan said hurriedly, but when he thought of Mu Wan drenched in the rain, his heart ached, "You...you can give him an umbrella."

"Okay." When he went to get the ginger soup just now, he had already invited Prince Mu to the hall, and everything was waiting for Master Xu Shi to come, "If you don't want to talk, then take a good rest. No matter what happened, Xu Yuan The temple is the best place for you."

"Thank you, brother." Wen Renyan lay on the bed silently, and slowly closed his eyes with the soft bed, not wanting to say any more.

He knew it was his fault, that he was unwilling to accept this reality.He was neither willing to be the stand-in of "Wen Renyan" nor to deceive Mu Wan, so he chose to leave.And Mu Wan is forced to accept this reality——

It's his fault.

Wen Renyan slowly closed his eyes and entered the meditation that he hadn't entered for a long time.

=================================

"Renyan?"

Wen Renyan regained his composure from the memories and found that he was meditating in his room now, and it had been a few days since he returned to Xuyuan Temple that day.He stood up and saw Bai Qingzhu push the door open and enter.

"Someone looking for you."

"...No see." Wen Renyan refused without thinking, "I want to be alone."

"Prince Mu has been staying in Xuyuan Temple for the past few days. You haven't seen me even once, and you didn't tell me what happened." Bai Qingzhu poured a cup of tea made by Wen Renyan, looked at the silent Wen Renyan, "It's not Prince Mu who wants to see you this time."

"...?"

"It's Master Xu Shi."

Master of Xushi?Wen Renyan stood up immediately.The past few days seem to coincide with a time, Master Xu Shi is very busy and has to take care of Mu Wan, so he hardly has time to come to Wen Renyan.But this coincided with the moment when Wen Renyan couldn't untie the inner demons by himself, and he could let Master Xu Shi come, and Wen Renyan felt a lot more at ease all of a sudden.

When he came to the hall, the benevolent Master Xu Shi was drinking tea as before. After seeing Master Xu Shi alone, Wen Renyan couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, but also a little disappointed that Mu Wan, who thought he would be there, didn't come.

"Ren Yan, I heard what happened to you recently?"

"Yes." Wen Renyan thought for a while, and still told Master Xushi everything about himself.From how he met Mu Wan, to all the things they have experienced between them; from their initial relationship to the present.He also told Master Xu Shi what happened to that "Wen Renyan", but he omitted his part, and only said dully at the end, "The person he was talking about is not me."

During the few hours Wen Renyan said, Master Xu Shi always looked at him with a smile on his face.It wasn't until Wen Renyan finished speaking that he patted his head with a smile and said, "It's actually about this."

Master Xu Shi was originally an eminent monk among the eminent monks, and he probably saw through the relationship between Wen Renyan and Mu Wan a long time ago, and now he is not surprised at what Wen Renyan said.But after he finished speaking, he touched the prayer beads in his hand in a little confusion, and didn't express anything else.

"Then it's not you, who is that person?"

"...I don't know, but the person he likes is definitely not me." Wen Renyan said firmly.

"How do you know?"

"I feel very ashamed." This is the first time Wen Renyan said to Master Xu Shi in such a serious manner, "I have practiced Buddhism for so long, and I thought I had already purified my six faculties, but I still couldn't see it, and finally ended up in despair. to the point of escaping."

"Ren Yan, I don't blame you for this. It's a vain thing. If you can see it, what's the use of pinching your fingers?"

Wen Renyan raised his head in a half-understanding manner.

"I used to think that your life experience is very bizarre, but I can't see through it. Now that you say that, but you refuse to tell me the whole thing, I'm afraid you have some scruples."

"I..." Wen Renyan hastily explained that he completely believed in Master Xu Shi, but how could he say that he came from the distant future?

"I once calculated the red line for you and the prince." Master Xu Shi stood up and looked into the distance, "The red line between you is tightly bound together, and it is definitely not easy to break."

"How is it possible?" Wen Renyan shook his head and said, "There is a red line between me and Mu Wan. If there is, I don't know if it's mine before or this one now. What's more, it's only a lifetime, it's absolutely impossible There's this tightly coiled red thread."

"You're right." Master Xu Shi turned his head slowly, "It's impossible to have such a fate because of marriage and karma in one life. What happened between you and Prince Mu, I'm afraid, can't be explained clearly in this life. .”

"A whole life?" Wen Renyan was incredulous, "Master, in this world, who can see their past life and future? If they can't make it clear in a lifetime, wouldn't they be involved in the past life? However, the two people who were together in the past life, How much fate does it take to be together in this life?"

"Why is it the past life?" Master Xu Shi smiled and took his hand, "Come with me."

For some reason, he followed the master through the hall, through the meditation room, through the bamboo forest, and through the courtyard.Walking through the rockery, through the stream, through the pavilion, through the stone bridge.Wen Renyan followed Master Xu Shi all the way, but came to a different place.

This place, with the clearest streams and waterfalls, is as beautiful as a paradise.The birds are cheerful and the flowers and plants are gorgeous, but this place is not big, surrounded by hazy mist, it is hard to see clearly.But just such a small place is beautiful enough to make people linger.

"This is..." Wen Renyan rubbed his eyes, "Is this Xuyuan Temple?"

"Yes." Master Xu Shi slowly walked towards the waterfall, and Wen Renyan also approached.Until he was two meters away, he suddenly saw the waterfall reflecting his figure like a mirror.His image is constantly twisting in the flowing water of the waterfall, accompanied by the sound of rushing water and crisp birdsong.

"This one is called the leading edge mirror."

"Master, you said this waterfall is a mirror?" Wen Renyan touched it lightly with his hand, but felt the cool touch from the stream, and couldn't help withdrawing his hand.

"This mirror is called the Front Edge Mirror. Only people with special backgrounds can see the cause and effect of themselves, past life and present life. This mirror is only known to the first abbot and the abbots of all generations. In this generation, only Xuan Xi and I know it. .And I have been the abbot for decades, no, it should be said that I have memories of the hundred years, and you are the first person who wants to find his past and present through the front mirror after a hundred years."

In the past hundred years, he was the first person to see this fairyland other than the abbot and the abbot?Since it was because of his special background, was that person a hundred years ago the same person as him?

"Come on, let's go in."

Master Xu Shi's gentle voice sounded, Wen Renyan was startled, and clenched his fists.Stepped into the waterfall.When he entered, there was no water, only the feeling of cool wind brushing against his skin, slowly bringing him into the mirror.

"Master, the one from a hundred years ago was for..."

Before losing consciousness, Wen Renyan asked the question he wanted to ask the most.Soon the fresh wind blowing towards his face overwhelmed him, so he didn't hear Master Xu Shi's soft words in front of the front mirror.

"Hundred years ago, there was an eminent monk named Wen Zhai. He entered the front mirror to find the one he loves..."
