$869, Looking for Kunlun (1/2)
After hearing what Su Wu said, Jinglian raised her eyes and looked at the other party without speaking.
"You should be thinking right now - my disciple can give me a push at the critical moment, allowing me to get closer to the great sun and get closer to the 'dharma nature' in the sky. As your disciple, maybe I can also Can I give you a push at a critical moment in the future and help you reach the sky and achieve the fruit of Bodhisattva?" Su Wu looked down at Jinglian and asked with a smile.
Jinglian didn't say anything or deny it.
The smile on Su Wu's face grew brighter: "Then even if you are blind, that day will never come."
After saying that, Su Wu patted his butt and stood up from the lakeside. He took off the bell from his waist and shook it a few times. The bell in his hand scattered into a burst of light dust, and the next moment it condensed into the luminous white dragon. From Maben.
He stepped on the stirrup and climbed onto the horse.
Jinglian looked around, only to see clumps of weeds growing out of the burnt body of her maroon horse.
"Where are you going?" Jinglian hurriedly stepped to keep up with Su Wu's white horse.
Su Wu drove his horse casually, glanced at Jinglian who was catching up, and said: "Didn't you guess it just now? The 'road' I saw in the air is from here to the 'sky and sea source' in the 'air' the road.
Today we will go along the road to the source of Tianji Sea to find out. "
"The two of us can ride on the same horse -" before Jinglian finished her words, she was interrupted by Su Wu shaking his head.
"You're such a bad old man, why should I ride on the same horse as you?
If you want to follow, just walk by yourself. " Su Wu said.
Jinglian lowered her eyes and said no more, but she did not part ways with Su Wu. Instead, she followed Su Wu's horse closely as Su Wu said. As the horse continued to speed up, he also ran with it. , never left behind.
Just as Su Wu said before, he still had delusional thoughts in his heart, and he still had some wishful thinking that at a critical moment, he might be able to obtain the fruit of Bodhisattva with the help of his disciples. Even if Su Wu explicitly rejected it, those delusional thoughts did not disappear. On the contrary, Buried deep in my heart, it gradually takes root.
One of them was riding a horse, the other was walking, and they walked like this aimlessly for more than a day.
Jinglian only followed Su Wu for half a day, and then she got a new horse to ride on. Finally, she no longer had the dilemma of a disciple riding a horse and following the master on foot.
His new black horse was purchased from a horse herding serf.
In order to buy this horse, he also canceled all the debts borne by the serfs, and made an oath with the leader to ensure that the leader would not treat the serfs harshly after he rode away - he suffered from Su Wu' After receiving the Vajra Initiation, Jinglian will truly follow the path of Mahayana Buddhism of "generating bodhicitta and walking the path of Bodhisattva".
Two black and white horses gallop in the dusk.
The dim yellow light covered the horizon, and the nearby snow-capped mountains were also covered with golden and red gauze.
Su Wu glanced at the black horse under the Jinglian seat next to him, gradually slowed down the horse's speed, and said to Jinglian, "This horse is a real horse."
Jinglian didn't know what he meant, so she nodded and looked at a certain snow-capped mountain connected to the Kunlun Mountains.
Around the snow-capped mountains, the clear water soaks into the grass-covered land, making the grass and trees on the land more lush.
"The money you gave to the person on the other end was fake money." Su Wu said again.
"I made an oath with that man. Even if he later discovers that the gold and silver are just changed stones, due to the threat of the oath, it is impossible for him to harm the serf." Jinglian replied to Su Wu.
Su Wu shook his head: "Your oath is only useful to the leader, but it has no binding force on the leader's wife, children, and subordinates.
When they find out that the money you gave to that person is just fake money, you will not suffer any harm, but the serf who sold you the horse will become the target of their anger. "
Jinglian was stunned when he heard this: "I didn't expect so much."
"You don't have good intentions to do good deeds.
As far as you are concerned, it is just to cope with the task.
If you can really complete a good deed, you will eventually have a good deed. But if you are just to cope with the task, you just make what you do look "good", but there is a deeper evil hidden inside.
Such kindness is hypocrisy. "Su Wu jumped off the white horse and grabbed the bell on the white horse's chest. The white horse scattered a burst of light and dust beside him.
Jinglian also dismounted and said to Su Wu with a gloomy expression: "Despite this, I have done a good deed after all. It is always better than you who did nothing, but afterward-"
"I gave the serf a knife.
He taught him how to kill people. " Su Wu interrupted Jinglian and replied with a smile.
"Teaching people to kill people, set fires, and meditate on the cause and effect of hatred. Unless it is done by an enlightened person, you cannot become a Buddha." Jinglian said.
The smile on Su Wu's face grew brighter: "I don't want to become a Buddha."
"..."
Jinglian said nothing and led the horse to a hillside.
Su Wu looked at Jinglian's back, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
From the beginning to the end, Jinglian's nature has been like this, without any change. But now, in order to become a Buddha, he has covered up the pure evil in his nature to make himself look like a kind-hearted Buddha.
Hanging the bell on his waist, Su Wu stepped into the grass, walked along the ravines and secret passages submerged by the weeds, and finally squatted in a certain secret passage and ravine.
He pushed aside the wild grasses that were swaying in the wind around him, and in the ravine with soft and moist soil that was as tall as a person, he saw a plant with leaves like ginseng leaves and brown rhizomes.
Carefully peeling away the moist soil around the plant, you can see that under the soil, the root system of the plant is like a few twisted, plump white flesh worms - this plant is a life and death tree with one leaf. Grass'.
The caravan led by Zhou Bo went deep into the hidden area, constantly looking for the 'grass of life and death'.
Su Wu dug some soil around the grass of life and death, wrapped the roots of the grass of life and death, and lifted it out of the ravine.
——The grass of life and death grows in this gully and secret passage, which proves that the source of the "Tianji Sea" once flowed here, but the course of the river was changed due to various unknown reasons due to changes in the years.
Nowadays, there is no trace of the grass of life and death on the banks of the "Tianjihai" river that runs through the secret realm.
Only in the rivers and gullies abandoned by the "Tianji Sea" can we find traces of the grass of life and death.
——The water of the "Tianji Sea" that once flowed through these ravines and secret passages is not consistent with the source of the current Tianji Sea, and has changed. Only the former seawater of the sky can nourish the soil suitable for the growth of the 'grass of life and death'. It is even possible that the seeds of the grass of life and death flowed throughout the secret area with the seawater of the former sky.
Jinglian, who was overlooking the snow-capped mountains on the hillside, led the horse and followed Su Wu.
He looked at the unattractive plant in Su Wu's hand and said in a low voice: "This plant has an aura similar to 'Lu Mu'."
"The sea of the sky once flowed from here." Su Wu replied to Jinglian, holding the grass of life and death in his hand, turning his eyebrows and eyes quietly, and the energy of his mind spread with the surge, reflecting every detail of the grass of life and death.
His mind could only sense the faint 'Lu Mu's breath' on the Grass of Life and Death.
That kind of aura is too obscure, entangled among so many chaotic auras, making it very difficult to distinguish.
But when the three pupils of his eyebrows converged into one, and they all turned their 'eyes' towards the grass of life and death, they saw many, many small shadows on the grass of life and death, and those shadows were somewhat human-like;
Some are snake-like;
Some are like rocks;
Some are like trees...
These many shadows were entangled into a ball, attached to the root system of the grass of life and death!
The root system of the Grass of Life and Death is a broken, dark hair!
The aura of Lu's mother that Su Wuzhi saw was the jet-black hair that his six-day old ghost's true pupils saw!
What are those shadows?
But Mother Lu’s aura is Mother Lu’s hair—all the grasses of life and death grow on Mother Lu’s hair? !
Su Wu was surprised.
He glanced at Jinglian beside him and said to Jinglian: "Use your mind as a knife to help me scrape off the brown layer on the surface of this grass root."
"Why should I help you?" Jinglian held the horse, unmoved.
"If you don't help me, I won't take you to see the Kunlun Sea Source in the sky." Su Wu was straightforward.
Jinglian's face was downcast and she glanced at Su Wu angrily.
He took the grass of life and death from Su Wu's hand. According to Su Wu's words, he used his mind as a knife and gently scraped the layer of brown on the surface of the root of the grass of life and death - that layer of brown was... Su Wu saw many shadows with the true pupils of the six-day old ghost.
After all, Jinglian is a monk who was born with the "King of Eight Consciousnesses". Although he has lost his nature and intention and the King of Eight Consciousnesses does not exist, he has the support of Dharma nature and can use his mind to make a knife to do such delicate work. Even more outstanding than Su Wu - thin, invisible shadows fell off from the roots of the grass of life and death, and suddenly dispersed in Jinglian's mind!
Jinglian looked ordinary.
Green ghost eyes suddenly grew around it. The numerous ghost eyes emitted a mysterious charm that was mixed with Lu Mu's aura, attracting all the small invisible shadows and making them disappear.
Su Wu took advantage of this opportunity, stretched out his shadow-wrapped palm, 'caught' a small shadow, and gathered it in the shadow world.
That tiny shadow is not trapped by the shadow world. The moment it is embraced by the shadow, it is also the time when it escapes from the shadow world!
——A figure flashed out from behind Su Wu. It was sewn with colorful silk threads and stepped into the shadow world in an instant. The tiny shadow that was about to leave the shadow world immediately became the 'person' that Su Wu transformed into with one thought. Attracted, attached to the figure.
Disappeared in an instant.
There was no abnormality in the figure.
Jinglian watched as Su Wu wrapped his hands in shadow and tried to grab something, and then transformed an idea into a human being and walked into the shadow world. His eyes were confused and he couldn't understand what Su Wu was doing.
Jinglian can’t see all the things seen in the eyes of the six-day ghosts!
“This is just a wisp of Lu Mu’s breath.
What are you doing "Jinglian handed Su Wu the rhizome of the Grass of Life and Death with the brown surface scraped off.
The rhizome of the Grass of Life and Death, which had its brown covering scraped off, instantly dispersed into the void as the essence of the Lotus loosened its hold on it.
