Female Buddha

Chapter 40 Solving hidden worries

Qingli and Murong Yu stayed in the vegetarian restaurant for another two days.They didn't set off to continue their training until the members of Qingyun Sect and Yunhua Sect had left Feixian City.Before leaving, the two of them collected a pile of dry food from Lao Tao Sanren, and then they left contentedly.Although Lao Tao Sanren looked distraught on the face, he was happy in his heart.The popularity of homemade food is the best compliment to Shixiu.After Qingli and the others left, Lao Tao Sanren sent a letter to a few friends and went to retreat to attack the realm.

Speaking of which, Qingli and Murong Yu still haven't decided on their next destination after leaving Feixian City.In order to refine his natal sword, Murong Yu listed all the materials that are rare.Some materials know the approximate direction, but are not in the same direction.Both of them actually have a little choice difficulty.In the end, Qingli suggested that God should decide.The two second-handers directly threw the branches, and they went in whichever direction the branches pointed.The final result was that the two of them went west to the Endless Sea.

The two of them followed the practice of Buddhist practice, if not necessary, they all walked.The two of them walked westward step by step.During this period, I passed through countless small towns.Some towns have monks living, but some towns are all mortals.Qingli has seen all kinds of things in the world during these few months.Ordinary people worry about making a living, rich people worry about power and oppression, and powerful people worry about all kinds of love and hatred.The monks will also worry about the aptitude and resources of their practice.

The Buddha said that all living beings suffer, and there are eight kinds of suffering in the world:

One is the suffering of birth, the pain of birth;
The second is the suffering of old age, the pain of old age;
The third is the suffering of illness, the pain of illness;

The fourth is the pain of death, the pain of death;

Fifth, resentment and hatred bring about suffering, "Those who do not love will gather together."

The sixth is the pain of parting from love, the pain of parting from the affairs of the loved one involuntarily;

The seventh is the suffering of not being able to ask for it, and not being able to satisfy one's desires.

The eighth is the five abundances of yin and suffering, which are composed of five factors: form, feeling, thought, action, and consciousness.And the Buddha does not cross, who can detach?

Qingli thought that she was a Buddhist cultivator in this life, but she was also ups and downs in this sea of ​​suffering.Qingli thought of a sentence she heard in her previous life: All living beings are suffering, and only oneself can overcome it.She suddenly felt that this sentence made sense.The hard work of these practitioners is just a means of crossing themselves.If you succeed in your practice, you will be able to transcend the sea of ​​suffering and be at ease in the world.

Qingli's life has been too smooth, and too high a starting point means that her foundation is not stable.Her life has had a direction since she was born.But she didn't resist and just walked in this direction.But in a sense, is she not a numb attitude towards life?Qingli has always known that strength is very important.But the reason why she wants to become stronger never comes from herself, but from the responsibilities and pressures given to her by the outside world.At this time, she has seen too many joys and sorrows.She was absolutely convinced in her heart that she wanted to become stronger, just to get rid of the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible.

Practitioners must have a strong heart.Even Buddhism is no exception.It's just that Buddhists are not good at fighting, which makes people think that they don't have the heart to be strong.However, this strong heart has little to do with being competitive.The strong are self-reliant.Qingli began to build up the heart of a strong man.After finishing the evening class that night, he was promoted.

Murong Yu watched helplessly as Qingli leaped to the fifth level of asking Buddha in less than half a year, even though he was also a person with extraordinary talents, he couldn't help feeling a little envious and jealous in his heart.For the sword cultivator who established the heart of the strong early on, Murong Yu, who had to suppress his cultivation due to his age and figure, was very hard in his heart.Now that his friend has advanced again, the urge to build a foundation immediately surges in his heart.Murong Yu tried hard to suppress the desire to advance in his heart, and his whole face was slightly distorted.

Qingli just woke up from the trance, and before she had time to be happy for her promotion, she saw Murong Yu's eyes closed tightly and her face distorted.Qingli has been with Murong Yu for so long, so of course she knows his desire for strength.It may be because some of his childhood experiences made her feel extremely insecure.And strong strength can give him a sense of security.It is a good thing to have the desire to become stronger.Especially since Murong Yu was also a sword cultivator.But everything has a degree, and beyond that degree it becomes a hidden worry.But now it seems that Murong Yu was obviously stimulated by her promotion and could no longer suppress the desire in his heart to become stronger.If this continues, Murong Yu is likely to develop inner demons.

Qingli picked up the wooden fish and knocked it.Murong Yu only heard a thud, as if it hit his heart.He regained his mind in an instant, and Qingli's voice of chanting sutras began to ring in his ears.

"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, if you practice the deep prajna paramita for a long time, you will see that all five aggregates are empty, and you will overcome all hardships."

Murong Yu also began to chant: "Shariputra! Form is not different from emptiness, and emptiness is not different from form; form is emptiness, and emptiness is form; the same is true of thinking and knowing..."

Accompanied by the sound of Qingli hitting the wooden fish, the two recited the Heart Sutra dozens of times in this wilderness.Finally, Murong Yu felt himself calmed down, and the two stopped chanting.Murong Yu said sincerely: "Thank you Junior Sister Qingli for your help, otherwise I will definitely give birth to a demon."

Qingli also knew that this time it was just a fluke to suppress the birth of the inner demon.If the problem cannot be solved fundamentally, it is certain that Murong Yu will have inner demons.Qingli thought for a while and said: "I know you have always wanted to become stronger. Being stronger does not mean the growth of cultivation base. Sword cultivators are monks who can leapfrog challenges. Since you are a sword cultivator, why do you have to stare at him? What about your cultivation base? Besides, it’s not that you can’t advance to the next level, it’s just that there are objective conditions. Since your cultivation base can’t increase in a short period of time, why don’t you work hard on your sword move and sword intent?”

Murong Yu said: "I have already cultivated sword qi now. But no one has ever been able to cultivate sword qi during the qi training period."

Qingli smiled: "Then let me ask you, are there many sword cultivators who have cultivated sword qi during the qi training period?"

"Although saying this is suspected of boasting. However, there are really very few sword masters who have cultivated sword energy during the Qi refining period." Murong Yu replied with his chest straight.

Qingli nodded: "In this case, it means that you are quite talented in sword training. Before this, no one could practice sword intent during the Qi training period. But since you want to become a strong person, you should not be Your vision is limited. Why can't you break the rules and become the No. 1 person who can cultivate sword intent during the Qi refining period?"

After hearing this, Murong Yu's heart brightened.He said to Qingli with a rare smile on his face: "Senior Sister Qingli said exactly what she said, it's my senior brother who made a fool of me."

Qingli smiled and said: "You also know that my Buddhist practice emphasizes the word "enlightenment". And your sword cultivation also depends on "enlightenment". As a friend I recognize, your understanding must not be bad. You can witness the sword practice during the Qi training period. Poor Monk is deeply honored to have the birth of No.1 that I want. So Brother Murong, please do your best.”

Qingli, who gave Murong Yu a bowl of chicken soup for the soul, saw that the other person seemed to be enjoying this, and she let go of her worries about him.Murong Yu said with a smile: "I will definitely work hard and will never let down your expectations, junior sister. However, I have been feeling aggrieved for a long time recently. Why don't we have a fun sparring session so that I can release all the depression in my heart. In this way, I Only then can you devote your mind to the next step of enlightening the sword."

Qingli didn't think that it would not be enough for her to pour him a bowl of chicken soup for the soul, and she had to fight him with all her strength.Qingli sighed, thinking that she had just advanced, and it happened to be a game to consolidate her realm.The two started fighting in the wilderness with one holding a demon stick and the other holding a sword.This time, except for Qingli who suppressed her cultivation, neither of them held back.Although the fight between the two was not dark, the scene was full of flying sand and rocks.

Murong Yu is indeed a genius in swordsmanship. His swordsmanship is as graceful as a startling giant, as graceful as a swimming dragon.In addition, he even used his sword energy, forcing Qingli to use her best skills to fight.It is not for nothing that Buddhist cultivators are another type of monks besides sword cultivators who are recognized as capable of leapfrogging challenges.Qingli learned the flower-twisting finger, Vajra Palm, and step-by-step lotus footwork from her senior brother in Bodhidharma Academy. It has its own special effects, and the power and visual effects are great.

Both of them often practice hand-to-hand with each other, and they have a certain understanding of each other's moves.However, neither side tried their best in the past, basically hiding some secret tricks.Now that the two of them have done their best, the power will be great.Both of them are not high in cultivation now, and neither can break through the precious clothes worn by both of them.The main reason is that both of them took into account the power of the opponent's leapfrog challenge, and directly maximized Baoyi's defense power, which could resist the blow of Nascent Soul cultivator.That's why the two can attack each other without holding back.But their faces, which were not covered by treasure clothes, were swept by the strong wind, and there were bloodstains.

After more than an hour, the two of them finally finished their fight and stopped.The two looked around, and saw that the ground that was originally fairly flat was full of potholes.There are also several deep pits with a depth of two or three meters.The two were a little surprised by their destructive power, and felt a little guilty in their hearts.If this is for ordinary people to cross the road, how much trouble will be added to them.Qingli thought that at least these deep pits should be filled.

At this time, Qing Lifang felt some pain on his face.Looking at the bloodstains on Murong Yu's face opposite, she felt a bad feeling in her heart.Qingli took out a mirror from the storage beads and looked at it, Haoxuan couldn't hold back the exclamation that blurted out.In this mirror, there are three bloodstains symmetrically on the left and right, and the face like a cat's beard is actually hers.For Qingli who loves beauty, this is no different from disfigurement.She immediately took out the birth muscle ointment and rubbed it on the wound, and then saw that the wounds in the mirror healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally became as if there were no scars.Qingli nodded in satisfaction, highly affirming the effects of these elixir in the cultivation world.

Qingli threw the muscle-creating ointment and the mirror to Murong Yu, letting him take care of his wound by himself.Although Murong Yu is not a person who loves beauty.But under Qingli's subtle influence, she still pays great attention to appearance.Now seeing his embarrassed appearance in the mirror, he didn't say anything, and quickly started to treat the wound.

Qingli saw that he was in a mood to pay attention to his appearance, which meant that the hidden danger in his heart had been resolved.In this regard, Qingli felt that it was worth the hard work to fight.
