Chapter 94 Extra Story 1: Zhuang Zhou's Dream of a Butterfly

Chapter 94 Extra Story [-]: Zhuang Zhou Mengdie

"Master Zhiran!"

When everyone turned around, it was Master Qingran who had given the Buddhist beads to Lin Shu who was talking, and Lin Shu and others returned their salutes one after another.

Liao Ran was still wearing an extremely ordinary monk's robe, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes.

He walked up to the stele and explained to everyone: "My teacher was in troubled times when he was alive. Natural disasters and man-made disasters caused countless deaths and injuries among the people. Although there was not much food in the temple at that time, the teacher went around for alms and cooked porridge to help the people. Although his ability is limited, Finally, he survived a few lives. What is engraved on this stone tablet is his experience of meticulously studying the "Lotus Sutra of the Miaofa" in order to save the souls of the dead."

Lin Shu and the others had no impression of the name Wuci, but from the clear tone, it could be heard that the statement was clear and respectful to his master.

Although what he said was extremely simple, Lin Shu understood that Master Wuci had taken a huge risk at that time.When the news came that there was food in the temple, whether it was rebels, bandits, or even extremely hungry victims, the temple might be turned into a sea of ​​flames.

In troubled times, in order to save one more life, begging for food without avoiding danger, and helping victims of disasters, enlightening compassion deserves the title of Living Buddha.

Lin Shu bowed to the stele: "Master Wuci is really a Living Buddha, I admire you!"

"The living Buddha does not dare to claim it, he just wants peace of mind, and the wish of the family teacher in his life is to have no shame in his heart and no complaints to the world."

Clearly and freely said: "The poor monk is the same, I just want to have no shame in my heart and no complaints to the world."

How many people are there who can truly be ashamed of their hearts and have no complaints in the world?
……

There was a stone table in the courtyard, Lin Shu invited him to sit down, and the rest of the people played on their own.

Lin Shu made the tea and handed it to Qiao Ran: "Master, I have something to ask."

"The layman wants to ask about Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly?" Liao Ran took the tea with a slight smile: "If this is the case, the poor monk has something to tell the layman."

"Master, please tell me." Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, Lin Shu understood that these four words were actually talking about his own mystery of rebirth.

Since coming to this world, for a period of time, he really couldn't distinguish reality from illusion.

He just listened and said: "The poor monk saw two strange people many years ago, one is a monk and the other is a Taoist. Their words and deeds are quite strange, and their whereabouts are even more strange. They go south and north, like ghosts."

One monk together?Isn't that the lame Taoist and the monk in the original book?Are there really ghosts and gods in this world?
Lin Shu's heart was extremely restless, he was about to ask, when he saw the expression on the face of Lian Ran: "The layman really knows these two people!"

"I know there are these two people, but I haven't seen them."

"Of course the layman has never seen it. In the 44th year of Longsheng, these two people wanted to go to Yangzhou to inspect Yan Yushi's mansion, but they were stopped by poor monks."

In the 44th year of Longsheng, it was the year when Daiyu suddenly fell ill at the age of three.If so, this matter is on par with the original.

When Daiyu was three years old, she suddenly became seriously ill. No matter how many doctors she consulted, she couldn't diagnose her illness.

It wasn't until Lin Ruhai met Li Jingtong by accident that he found out that Daiyu was born weak and frightened.Leaving aside the treatment operations that Lin Shu couldn't understand, Daiyu was finally saved.

"Master, are there really ghosts and gods in the world?"

Xiaoran smiled: "The world has different opinions about ghosts and gods. The poor monk believes in Buddhism, but the poor monk has never seen Buddha, but the way of heaven has its own rules, and ghosts and gods have their own way."

Lin Shu asked: "Then why did this monk come to the next house? Why did the master stop them again?"

"Because of you, their purpose is to save you."

The clear answer surprised Lin Shu, because the purpose of the two monks and Taoists in the original work is to save Daiyu.

After listening to it, he continued: "The existence of lay Buddhists has disturbed the line drawn by Tiandao Zao. They are here to erase those who affect this line."

Gods and ghosts?Regardless of whether there are heaven, ghosts and gods, no matter how he came to this world, Lin Shu only believes that man can conquer heaven.

"Since the master stopped them, the master must have seen something."

Hearing Lin Shu's words, he laughed loudly: "Because the poor monk doesn't like tragedies, and doesn't want to see the world suffer!"

Lin Shu opened his mouth and asked again: "Then what does the master mean by tragedy?"

"Does the layman want to tell you about your origin? In fact, the poor monk didn't know much about it, but he met that monk, and after a friendly exchange, they told some stories about flowers, plants and stones."

Liao Ran pointed to the pool not far away and said: "This world is like this pool, and the layman is like a drop of rainwater that accidentally fell into the pool from other places. It's just that there is a small seed in this drop of rainwater. , the poor monk just wanted to see if this seed could grow into a towering tree by the pond."

Lin Shu seemed to understand the meaning of the words, but he didn't seem to understand.But it can be heard that Qingran indeed sees that he has deeply cherished the memory of his previous life.

That seed refers to the extra memory that I have.The towering tree just wanted to see what changes he would bring to the world.

No wonder he would remind himself that day, don't forget the original intention when he was young.However, Lin Shu was still curious about the matter of the monk and the monk together, so he asked, "Where are the monk and the Taoist now? Presumably, the two of them would not easily tell the master these secrets."

"Talk about them. The poor monk reasoned with them back then, but they didn't listen. So the poor monk had a close contact with them, and they told them all about it."

Liao Ran seemed to be recalling the past, and sighed: "The world has its own rules, existence is the truth, how can others interfere. The poor monk's persuasion was ineffective, so he had to save the two of them. Alas, it's a sin!"

Lin Shu's back was soaked in sweat, this kind-hearted master was actually so powerful.

Leaving aside the existence of ghosts, gods and heaven, since this monk has appeared, he can transcend them and understand what kind of existence it should be. He must not be Fa Hai with the dragon tattoo on his back.

"Master, you..."

"Don't be afraid, Layman. Heaven, earth and people have their own rules. Human affairs are governed by human beings, and the poor monk only maintains the rules of the human world. There are not so many demons and ghosts in this world."

Lin Shu suddenly remembered Jia Baoyu's piece of jade. He had inquired with Jia Lian before, and Jia Wang's family should have found that piece of jade.But all the monks appeared together, and some things might not be so simple.

So he asked: "Maybe the master has heard about the fact that Jia Baoyu in Rongguo Mansion was born with jade?"

"It's nonsense to be born with jade. It's just that the piece of jade is unusual. It was given to the second wife of the Rongguo Mansion by the monk and Taoist. It's a pity that the piece of jade has lost its spirituality."

Knowing this, he said to Lin Shu: "The poor monk has never told anyone about these things, and there will be no third person in this world who will know. Whether it's a calamity or a bad fate, the layman just treats these things as just one thing. Ridiculous story."

Speaking of this, his clear eyes turned to Daiyu who was playing with his sisters: "Zhuang Zhou Mengdie may have traveled to another world. Since the layman came here, why bother to search for the past? Live in the present , wouldn’t it be beautiful to benefit the present?”

Lin Shu also turned his head to look at Daiyu who was fighting with Wang Yuan, his eyes changed from being confused and worried to soft but determined.

He stood up and bowed to Liao Ran: "Thank you, Master, for saving the Lin family from being destroyed, and thank you, Master, for your guidance!"

With a smile in his eyes, he looked at Lin Shu: "It's still the same sentence, the poor monk can't see tragic things, since it happens, of course he has to take care of it. Besides, the poor monk is still waiting for the seed to take root and germinate , grow into a towering tree."

"I will live up to Master's high expectations, and I will do my best to let that seed grow as soon as possible." Lin Shu replied solemnly.

Liao Ran got up and touched the top of Lin Shu's head, he said with a smile: "Heavenly Dao is merciless, but it is also merciful. Perhaps the existence of the Layman was specially arranged by Tiandao."

Then he turned around and walked towards the gate of the small courtyard. Before leaving, he whispered in Lin Shu's ear: "You and I know these things, don't tell others."

Lin Shu nodded, watched off and left.

Although Lin Shu couldn't figure out the reason why he came to this world from Liao Ran in the end, he also learned the truth of many things.

Since there are two monks and Taoists, then Daiyu, Sichun and others may have extraordinary origins as stated in the original book.However, according to what is clear, heaven, earth and people have their own rules, and no one else can intervene.

Then Daiyu is Lin Shu's younger sister in this life, not some crimson pearl fairy grass. As for the relationship between wood and stone, go to hell.

At this moment, what he was most curious about was Qingran's true identity, and the close contact with the monk and the Taoist was probably justified with fists.

"Jinyu, what are you thinking? Why did the master leave? I still wanted to ask him if he has any martial arts secrets like "Book of Changes"?"

Wang Huan walked to Lin Shu's side, and suddenly asked a question, waking Lin Shu up from his contemplation.

Listening to the laughter in the courtyard, Lin Shu mocked in his heart that he was really asking for trouble.Now that he has already solved the problem, why should he think so much.

"Brother Weizhong, I don't know the "Book of Changes Tendons", but I know my aunt's dog-beating stick method. If you want to become a monk every day, I think you can see your aunt performing this dog-beating stick method soon Already!"

 This is an explanation of the origin of the protagonist and a guess about the story of the Twelve Gold Hairpins based on the theory of gods and ghosts in the original book.

  Today I sorted out the materials I prepared before, and I am refining the outline. Let this chapter be regarded as a side chapter.

  Tomorrow, we will return to the orthodox historical direction and continue the development of the story.I hope you will continue to pay attention and support Miaomiao.
