Chapter 270
"Kind Arhat, please wait another life."

Jianglong and Fuhu's faces turned dark when they heard the Jingtan messenger's words. Is this a trick on them?

But it is a pity that even though they are full of dissatisfaction in their hearts, they do not dare to be negligent towards the Jingtan Messenger. In terms of status, the Jingtan Messenger is a Bodhisattva. Although he is on the same level as Jianglong, in terms of strength.
Everyone knows that this guy's strength goes far beyond the status of Bodhisattva. The reason why he is only a Bodhisattva is entirely because of his background. Buddhism does not dare to give too high a position, so it is best to confer such a Pure Altar Envoy. I really feel like I’m on the same level as him, then you’re really crazy, you’re making fun of yourself like a joke, how can you still take it seriously/
So after listening to the words of the fat monk, he subdued the dragon and subdued the tiger with one hand raised and bowed respectfully.

On the other side, the thunderous-faced monk smiled with satisfaction after seeing the fat monk restraining the dragon and subduing the tiger. He blew out a breath of immortal energy at Chen Mansion, and his soul instantly escaped into Chen Xuan's dream.

"Sure enough, I'm here again? Has someone changed?" Chen Xuan was walking in the white fog, and he was a little confused when he saw that the figure emerging in the fog was not the golden bald head from yesterday.

"Amitabha, Almsgiver Chen, we finally meet." The thunder-faced monk saluted with a smile.

Chen Xuan followed suit and saluted, and then asked curiously: "I don't know what my name is, Master. Do you know me?"

"The young monk's name is Sun Xingzhe. This is the first time that the young monk has met Almsgiver Chen. However, the young monk is very familiar with Almsgiver Chen's name. You are the person appointed by the Buddha to learn scriptures."

"Buddha!" ​​Chen Xuan was surprised and a little scared. He was just an ordinary person with a little money. This Buddha sounded like an awesome figure. This kind of figure actually appointed him as a Buddhist monk.
why?
Although curious, Chen Xuan did not ask about this, but asked another question that he was most concerned about: "Dare you ask Master Sun, can this scripture be able to save all sentient beings?"

Hearing this, Monk Sun Xingzhe, a monk with a thunderous face, did not answer immediately. Instead, he smiled slightly, turned around and walked forward: "This answer needs to be seen by the donor himself."

"Take a look?" Just when Chen Xuan was confused, he found that the white mist around him quickly faded, and ruins appeared all around. Among the ruins, adults and children in ragged clothes were huddled together in twos and threes, with no color in their eyes. , full of numbness.

Chen Xuan is no stranger to this look. There were quite a few of them in the northern region in the past few years. It is a look that has completely lost hope in life. Their bodies are still alive, but their hearts are already dead.

"Master Sun, this is."

"This is the current scene of Spring City, the border city of the Desert Country."

"Chuncheng." Chen Xuan was stunned. He knew this.

The war between the Desert Country and the Great Wilderness Country has been going on for almost ten years. There are constant frictions, big and small. This has also made the status of the king who is as powerful as his father continue to rise. Spring City was a city that was captured a month ago. .

However, according to his information, didn't it mean that there were no attacks on civilians here?
Chen Xuan was a little silent. He was not stupid. He quickly understood that if this scene was real, then there should be something wrong with his intelligence.
The reason for this is also very simple. If he knows the actual situation here, then he will definitely help here, no matter what, so the situation here is simply concealed.

However, by showing him this, you shouldn't be trying to convey this information to him, right?

Chen Xuan looked at Sun Xingzhe.

"Look at this place. This place is like this because of the war between the two countries. The reasons for the war between the two countries are now very complicated. Do you think that only three volumes of scripture can resolve the grievances between the two countries? ?”

Chen Xuan was silent. Unless this scripture has a strong brainwashing function, it cannot be solved.
Seeing Chen Xuan fell into silence, Sun Xingzhe continued to walk forward, and the scene around him also changed. This time, they appeared in an alley. There were more than ten dying people lying in the alley. Outside the alley, various people There are also some people lying in the corner. They are so angry that they may pass away at any time.

Chen Xuan squatted next to a commoner, observed it, and said with some uncertainty: "Is this an epidemic?"

Over the years, in order to establish Jishitang, he also had some knowledge of medical skills. Although he could not diagnose his pulse, he could still tell something based on his experience.

"Well, it's a relatively severe epidemic. Now the city is full of patients. Normal people and doctors have all evacuated. Do you think this situation can be solved by the scriptures?"

Chen Xuan was silent again. He really wanted to say that he could summon some doctors to think of a solution, but firstly, this should not be the content of the true scripture. Secondly, it may not be successful. He has tried it.
Following Chen Xuan's silence, Sun Xingzhe walked around again, and the surrounding scene also changed. This time it was not a natural or man-made disaster, and not many people died, only one person died. However, the difficulty of this matter was no less on the first two items
Although the first two problems are difficult, there are still solutions, but this matter is
"You must have noticed that her husband is dead, her son was born with intellectual disabilities, and she is still a lame. Her husband is the only support of the family. She has lost the motivation to live. Can the scriptures explain this matter? ?”

What appeared in front of Chen Xuan was a woman in white clothes, who was kneeling in front of her husband's corpse holding a hemp rope in a daze. However, she didn't realize that she continued to kneel beside her. Her mentally deficient son was squatting in the corner of the yard, stuffing dirt into his mouth. It was a half-dug grave.

this home.
give money?This is no longer something that money can solve. Their spiritual world has completely collapsed. The woman is lame and cannot even hang herself. Can the scriptures really solve this matter?
With Chen Xuan's silence, Sun Xingzhe took steps again, and the scene changed accordingly. Chen Xuan's silence became longer and longer. It turned out that there were far more sufferings in this world than he expected.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Xuan returned to the white fog again, staring blankly ahead. Can he really save all sentient beings?Can retrieving the scriptures solve these problems?
His heart was hopeful, but at the same time, his reason told him that it was almost impossible.
"Master Sun, you want me to read these, are you trying to tell me something to stop me from getting the scriptures? You seem to know the scriptures very well." After a moment of silence, Chen Xuan asked in a weak tone that he didn't expect. road.

Tired heart.

"Do you want to get scriptures? Ha~ You don't need to get those kinds of things. If you need them, I can give them to you right now." After saying that, Sun Xingzhe threw out a few scriptures, "The young monk was also a scripture collector back then. After the master retrieved the scriptures, he discovered that the scriptures could not change anything and save all sentient beings? Haha~ In the end, it was just a fight between sects. Among the gods and Buddhas in the sky, how many people care about this world? They don’t care, they How can there be a true sutra that can save all sentient beings? Only when all living beings are suffering will they believe in Buddha. If all living beings are not suffering, why worship Buddha? Therefore, true sutras cannot save the world!"

Sun Xingzhe's words hit Chen Xuan's heart like a thunderbolt, solving his doubts these days. Yes, if the aloof immortal Buddha really sympathizes with the world and writes a true scripture that can save all sentient beings, why do people still need to take it? ?

If no one picks it up, isn't this scripture useless?
From the perspective of the world, this is undoubtedly a bit greedy, but from the perspective of a Buddha, you created the scripture out of compassion for the world, so why do you want to cherish it?
Because Buddha does not want to save all living beings, he just wants all living beings to believe in him.
From this point of view, it is no longer important whether the scriptures can save the world, what is important is the process of learning the scriptures.

If this is the case, then he is not willing to take this scripture!

After making the decision, Chen Xuan saluted Sun Xingzhe respectfully and said, "Thank you, Master Sun, for your advice, but Xuan still has doubts in his heart. I don't know how to save this world."

However, to Chen Xuan's disappointment, Sun Xingzhe shook his head: "The young monk is also looking for the way to save the world, and I can't teach you. However, the young monk has the scriptures that he once retrieved. The young monk has put them all in your room. Look. After finishing it, you may have new ideas. You can only walk this path yourself, no one else can make the decision for you."

"Thank you, Master Sun." Chen Xuan was a little disappointed with this result, but he also knew that the way to escape the world was not easy to find, so he still bowed to Sun Xingzhe to express his gratitude.

Perhaps, after reading the Tripitaka Sutra, he will have some answers.When Chen Xuan straightened up, Sun Xingzhe had disappeared without a trace. Then, his eyes flashed and he woke up from his dream.

After waking up, he was a little stunned when he looked at the large pile of scriptures that suddenly appeared in the room. Really, they had been delivered, and there were so many of them!
"Papa~" After patting his face and feeling refreshed, Chen Xuan couldn't wait to go to the scriptures and started to read them. Let him see what kind of magic power this scripture passed down by the Buddha has!

------

"Is it done? Hululuulu~" On the other side, seeing Sun Xingzhe's soul return to his body, the fat monk raised his mouth and then immersed himself in making noodles.

Sun Xingzhe raised his head and looked at the sky, which was now filled with traces of fish-white. He said to the noodle stall owner with some surprise: "The donor seems to be starting up a little early these days."

The noodle stall owner smiled honestly: "Isn't it because this chef has a big appetite? No, it's basically plain noodles."

After saying that, the boss also showed Sun Xingzhe the prepared materials.

Sun Xingzhe smiled and shook his head: "You are lucky to have met this idiot."

"Hehe~" The boss smiled and quickly moved his hands. The bowl was almost finished. We must break the record today!
"Almost, he won't go to learn Buddhist scriptures again."

"Why?" The fat monk asked in surprise with a smile on his face.

"Because I gave him the scripture."

"." The fat monk looked at Sun Xingzhe speechlessly, "You are really doing a disservice. Those guys should go crazy now, but don't forget, they have one last trick."

"Don't worry, little monk knows." Sun Xingzhe narrowed his eyes. Of course he knew this.

Forcibly awakening the true spirit, just like what was done to Arhat who subdued the Dragon. At first, the collision of memories and emotions between the two lives will make people a little crazy, but as time goes by, everything will return to the normal reincarnation process. Buddhism The so-called best of both worlds.

It’s just that this method hurts people the most, hurting ordinary people.

Chen Xuan refused to learn the scriptures, but his master Tang Sanzang did not.

Because he had learned the scriptures once, Tang Sanzang knew very well that what was really important was not the Tripitaka scriptures, but the experiences along the way. He was willing to go on the journey of learning the scriptures again.

But this is not the result he wants, learn from it?Get the yarn!

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed. At this time, the Chen family has become a mess, because their young master Chen Xuan has locked himself in the study for three days and three nights.

For three days and three nights, I didn't eat a single meal!
When he was hungry, he drank water to fill his stomach. He was like a madman, immersed in the scriptures.

"Young master, haven't you come out yet?" At this time, a stout middle-aged man led a man with eyebrows like green feathers and muscles like mutton fat; his face was lined with peach petals, and his hair was piled with golden phoenix silk; his autumn waves were enchanting, and spring bamboo shoots were slender and charming. The woman came outside the study.

"Back to the prince, he hasn't come out yet and hasn't eaten yet. The young master has been reading in the study for the past three days and only drank water."

Northwest King Chen Long frowned and immediately ordered: "Break open the door! If this continues, I will be starving!"

"Here" the servants looked at each other. Chen Xuan's reputation among them was pretty good. To be honest, they didn't want to do such disrespectful things, but when they thought that something might happen to the young master, they became anxious again and were about to rush away. The door of the study.

And at this moment.
"Hahahahahahahaha~~~~ I understand!! Hahahaha~ Master Sun, I understand~ The Scripture is a lie! This is a scam! The Scripture cannot save the world at all!!! Hahahaha~ ~~"

Hearing the crazy laughter inside, Chen Long's expression changed, and he immediately kicked open the study door and asked nervously: "Xuan'er, are you okay?"

The door of the study room opened, and the scene inside shocked everyone instantly. The study room was filled with Buddhist scriptures that had appeared at unknown times. At this time, these Buddhist scriptures were scattered in various corners, and their young master was kneeling on his knees. Amidst a pile of Buddhist scriptures, they looked up to the sky and smiled, but in this smile, they saw only endless sadness.
"Xuan'er, what's wrong with you? Wake up!" Chen Long's sharp shout finally woke Chen Xuan up from his wild laughter.

"Father? And, Sister Yun?" After stopping his laughter, Chen Xuan turned around and looked at the people who had gathered, a little confused, "What's wrong with you guys?"

Chen Long took a deep breath and asked: "I should be the one to ask, what's wrong with you? You locked yourself in the study for three days and three nights without eating or drinking just to read this? This Buddhist scripture is just a lie. I know you have a good heart, but you have to know that this is just something they wrote to gain faith."

Chen Xuan looked at his father in surprise. Unexpectedly, his father saw it quite clearly. He only came to his senses after reading the Tripitaka Sutra.

But then he figured out that there was a fundamental difference in cognition between father and son, that is, Chen Xuan knew that there was a Buddha in the world!

"Father." Chen Xuan struggled to stand up from the chair, and the woman behind Chen Long quickly ran over to help him.

"I want to become a monk!"
