Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 358 The Heart of a Monk
"It turned out to be like this, let the uncle remember it. Could it be that this is the Muni clay that can be used to shape the body?" Li Xiuyuan said: "It doesn't look like it at all."

"Of course not, because this physical body has not been successfully molded, and there is still a lack of treasures and Taoist refining. Although that Huagu fabricated it to be the same as a living person, once she is injured, she will show her flaws. How can she be regarded as The real body? It’s just a waste of treasures like Muni clay.” Mu Taoist said.

Li Xiuyuan thought that his wife Xiaomei happened to be short of this muni clay to refine the body, and immediately said: "Master, may the clay sculpture be refined again? Xiaomei still needs a body."

"Refining is not difficult, but this body has been fixed and cannot be changed. Even the senior brother can only change his appearance a little bit, so that his appearance is the same as before. If he wants to have the same physical body as before, he has to fabricate it again. Okay, this needs new Muni clay." said Mu Taoist.

How can Li Xiuyuan get new Muni clay now?

These were obtained from Aunt Hua by chance.

"It's fine if you can only change your appearance. It doesn't matter if you can't change your body. This body is not bad. I believe Xiaomei will be satisfied. After all, it's better than occupying the body of a living person and the corpse of a dead person." Li Xiuyuan said.

Mu Taoist said: "Since you agreed, the poor Taoist will take this clay sculpture away, and let the senior brother refine the body in the next few days, and your wife will be resurrected soon."

"So there will be Master Lao." Li Xiuyuan cupped his hands gratefully.

Mu Taoist smiled and said: "Poverty is just running errands, so there is no hard work, brother is different, he wants to get another treasure for you to refine the body, I'm afraid it will be a pain in the flesh."

Li Xiuyuan thought of his master's stingy appearance, but being stingy is stingy, he is still very generous to himself.

However, in the words of a blind Taoist, it is not enough to be generous. The karma owed is too great, and the debt has to be repaid continuously.

Although cause and effect belong to cause and effect, Li Xiuyuan is still very grateful to his master.

With the matter of Xiaomei's resurrection settled, a big stone in his heart can be regarded as letting go.

It's just that some people are happy and some are sad.

Hua Gu who is leaving now has a look of anger.

"Damn it, originally this matter would be successful in all likelihood. Although Li Xiuyuan is a natural saint, he is not unfeminine. My previous temptation has a high chance of success. The only reason why I failed was because of that monk. Because of the reminder, if it wasn't for his reminder, Li Xiuyuan would not have been so vigilant at all, and my plan would have succeeded."

Hua Gu was walking in Jinling City, ready to leave the city.

With her identity exposed, she naturally couldn't stay here anymore, even Shi Hu couldn't stay here, let alone her.

"I can't deal with Li Xiuyuan now, can't I even deal with a monk?" Hua Gu thought to herself.

Immediately she walked out of Jinling City and used her own methods to find out the monk's whereabouts.

On the second day, Hua Gu had already found out the monk's whereabouts.

He was chanting scriptures and paying homage to Buddha in an unremarkable temple outside Jinling City.

Hua Gu did not choose to go to the temple during the day, but went to the temple in the evening, in the form of a human body, but she was not going to worship the Buddha or fulfill her vows, but to deal with the monk.

In the middle of the night tonight, the monk sat cross-legged in the meditation room, chanting scriptures and paying homage to the Buddha. However, for some reason today, distracting thoughts poured out of his heart, making him unable to calm down.

"Is my catastrophe coming?" The monk opened his eyes, and if he felt something in his heart, he felt that his practice had reached perfection.

Just a little bit of catastrophe and trial.

Whether it is a practitioner of the Tao or a monk who studies Buddhism, he must go through catastrophe, and this disaster is the test of a practitioner of the Tao.

To get over it is naturally a complete practice, but if you can't get through it, it's hard to say.

Today, this monk already has the feeling that his own catastrophe is coming. In fact, he already has this feeling, but he doesn't know when the so-called catastrophe will come, so he seldom pays attention to foreign affairs in order to overcome the catastrophe. , even travel less, only occasionally go to the city for alms.

Thinking of the coming catastrophe, the monks ignored other distractions, just knocked on the wooden fish, closed their eyes and recited scriptures.

Everything outside has nothing to do with me.

If the mind is not disturbed, even catastrophes can be resolved.

Soon, there was a knock on the door outside the monk's meditation room, and a woman seemed to be calling his name, begging him to open the door and let herself in.

The monk remained motionless and continued to chant sutras.

Hua Gu, who was outside the door, looked towards the meditation room at this moment, and couldn't help but be surprised.

But I saw the Buddha's light coming out from the back of the monk's head. When he was reciting the scriptures, there was a vision, like a lotus flower, and the golden light flashed. Everyone who heard this scripture could feel peaceful in their hearts, and all kinds of evil thoughts were dispelled. Yes, the whole person has been purified.

"What an eminent monk who has achieved the Tao, but he has not yet become a Buddha. His inner realm is not perfect. He still has emotions and desires, and there are still flaws. The power of his Dharma comes from his inner practice. As long as I break his state of mind, his Dharma has no power at all." Hua Gu was startled, but secretly sneered.

I even dare to seduce and murder a saint in the world, let alone this monk.

With this in mind, Hua Gu made up her mind.

She first used some charming means of women, trying to draw out the monk's worldly heart, but after trying it, she failed.

Obviously ordinary sex is not possible.

The monks in the meditation room were still chanting with their eyes closed, motionless, not affected by those women's charming voices.

But Hua Gu stood outside the meditation room and sighed softly: "Master's will is really firm, and he has already reached the stage of becoming a Buddha. I originally had resentment in my heart and wanted to seduce Master and seek revenge, but now Master Still unmoved, I should have given up and left, but the master is a practitioner of Buddhism, and I have some superficial understanding of Buddhism. I heard that monks who practice Buddhism have several inner realms. The first realm is, Ren Litian, people at this level will ruin their morality once they get close to women, so they are afraid of women like tigers, and they only dare to hide in temples without women and practice hard, and dare not get involved in the world of mortals. "

"If you practice further, you will be able to reach the second level of Buddhism. If you don't think about it, monks in this level can already see women's sex without being tempted. Even if it is raped by a charming woman, it is like seeing dirt and dust, but it still cannot get rid of the hue."

"Going one step further, if you have reached the Four Zen Heavens, you will not be affected by anything, and you will be able to completely get rid of form. What is female sex, and what are things? None of them can be reflected in your heart. As for the last level, there is a state where all kinds of Bodhisattva Heaven, if the state of mind reaches this level, then it is a real Bodhisattva, it doesn't matter to be raped, it doesn't matter to be touched, and it has the freedom of a Buddha."

"The master is a person who wants to become a Buddha, and his inner cultivation must be extremely high. If the master is willing to let me touch it and not be tempted, then I will worship him. I am willing to take refuge in my Buddha, accept precepts and practice, and never do it again. It's such a lowly thing."

Hearing this, the monk in the meditation room slowly opened his eyes.

The scriptures stopped.
