Craftsman: I continue to learn for the sake of the saints

Chapter 161

Qin Luo didn't accept the red envelope.

Although, in this transaction, I did play a role in facilitating it.

However, there is no need to collect money.

It feels weird.

Just have this attitude.

Qin Luo returned it to her in WeChat.

but……

What Qin Luo didn't expect was that Fang Yichen was a little persistent.

The next day, during the live broadcast at night, she appeared in the live broadcast room and swiped gifts worth 1 yuan.

The fan level has jumped from level 2 to level 32.

Although it is not the top brother in the live broadcast room, but it is still ranked quite high.

Qin Luo was speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

After a moment of silence, he didn't say much.

In my heart, I naturally left some impressions.

Of course, it is a good impression.

Wealth can pass through the gods.

Even people who regard money as dung will inevitably have ripples when they encounter this situation.

And after brushing the gifts...

the next day……

Fang Yichen called Qin Luo again to inquire about customizing a high-end version of the bracelet.

Qin Luo gave her a contact information, he was a jade carver at a branch of Laoshan Jade Ware in Gusu.

She thanked you again and again.

This episode, up to now, is considered to be temporarily over.

……

The results of the Zigang Cup Jade Ware Contest have been announced to the public.

To Qin Luo's surprise, he still saw his name in the list of gold awards.

The organizer did not follow the application and proposal in its "open letter" and chose another work for the gold award, but still gave the gold award to itself.

On the contrary, it seemed very strong.

Anyway, here you go.

Whether you want it or not is up to you.

then.

A question was imminently placed in front of Qin Luo.

Do you want to go to the awards ceremony?
Generally speaking, if you get the gold medal, you must go to the award ceremony.

However, there have been refunds before, and going now is simply slapping yourself in the face.

You may even feel ashamed and blush.

So... What was the reason for my tossing about before?
Although I know in my heart that this matter is out of my heart.

However, outsiders don't see it that way.

Outsiders will only think that Qin Luo is too ugly to eat, he wants both face and face.

At the same time, while eating, he had to smash the pot.

It's just too small.

The organizer's move was a kind of counterattack.

A game is a game, and the result is the result. Who do you think you are?Why interfere?
A gold medal for you must be a gold medal for you.

and……

If you don't go by yourself, it will definitely look too weird.

This situation...

It also made Qin Luo dumbfounded.

"What's the situation? Why did you give me the gold medal?"

Qin Luo called Lu Jin to ask.

Lu Jin just smiled and said, "I can't do anything about it. It's already been decided. There are two big bosses who are extremely strong in this matter."

"One is Liu Xi, and the other is Zhong Rong."

"To put it bluntly, if this award is not given to you, it will damage the honor of the Zigang Cup."

"Now, doing this will actually increase the gold content and reputation of the game to a higher level."

In terms of human sophistication, there are many people who are higher than Qin Luo.

This move is a serious six.

At least in name, firmly occupy the initiative.

Including making Qin Luo, the party concerned, have nothing to say.

I feel a kind of helplessness of "people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes", and the indescribable gravity of reality.

It's like... a web that's everywhere.

You can stretch the net into shapes, your own shapes, but you can never really break through it.

……

Hanshan Temple.

tea room.

Qin Luo faced Master Huitong again.

I talked to him a lot in the past two days.

This old monk is indeed of a certain level, with a wide range of knowledge and talent, especially his calligraphy, which can be said to be upright and dignified, with a lot of charm.

Sit face to face with him now.

Qin Luo casually told him all the troubles in his heart.

Huitong calmly brewed a pot of tea and poured the tea as if nothing had happened.

After listening to Qin Luo's words, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Smiling very cheerfully.

Qin Luo:? ? ?
"why are you laughing?"

Huitong: "Naturally I'm laughing at you."

Qin Luo pouted: "Is it that funny?"

"Have."

"This is another level...you don't get what you want. You don't seek profit, but it happens to fall on you, and it's not the profit you want. You don't seek fame, but fame also happens to fall on you On the head, too, is a name you don't want that much."

"Isn't this ridiculous?"

Uh.

Listening to him, Qin Luo himself couldn't help laughing out loud.

What a chicken...the egg hurts.

That's what it feels like.

"It's obviously a good thing, but I don't feel comfortable because it goes against my heart."

Qin Luo said with some emotion for a moment.

What does this feeling look like?

It's roughly similar to a person you don't like, but is pursuing you hard, so it has some negative impact on your life.

Huitong smiled slightly, motioned for Qin Luo to drink tea, picked up the teacup himself, and took a sip.

"Share an allusion."

"Layman Dongpo, before he passed away, said the last sentence of his life. It was four words, and there were only four words. Put effort into it."

"Anything, when you try too hard, it's wrong. This is the ultimate understanding of life for a layman."

"Buddhism talks about not being attached, and doing everything according to fate. Taoism talks about the way of nature, and it also has this meaning."

"The revealing of the self-nature does not require effort, but all effort is done deliberately, and what is deliberately done is the root of pain."

"Let everything come naturally, and don't force all relationships. Everything, to me, is like a breeze, like a bright moon. things."

What he said, like a clear spring, slowly flowed in Qin Luo's heart.

Thoughtful for a while.

It seems that he has realized something, but he is getting more and more confused.

"What is that principle?"

Qin Luo thought about it and asked softly.

Huitong said with a smile: "Principles are the standard answers, but if there is a standard answer, it is the focus."

Qin Luo thought for a while, and then asked: "Isn't this another kind of... nihilism?"

"If you don't put effort into everything, and if you put in effort, then what's the point of working hard? Where are your goals and pursuits in life?"

This already feels a bit debatable.

Get caught up in an exploration of the realm of philosophy.

Huitong said without hesitation: "Work hard... When you have the idea of ​​hard work in your heart, hard work will change its quality. When you are making a piece of work, have you ever had the slightest mentality of hard work in your heart? Probably, there is no such thing as joy. .”

"The goal and pursuit of life don't focus on effort. What do you want? No matter what you want, just do it day after day, regardless of the result, regardless of gains and losses. Speaking of utilitarianism, it may be easier to get it like this .Of course, if you are intoxicated with this kind of mentality, it is also an effort.”

Qin Luo: ...

How about you leave this doll with me?

The most criticized part of Buddhism's speech is here, and there are often nesting dolls.

Toss and turn logically, plugging all loopholes tightly.

However, in Qin Luo's heart now, he kind of agrees with the words "strength is the difference".

It's just that the delicate balance here is a bit too difficult.

As he said...

Indulging in the fact that "effort is bad" itself is also a kind of effort.

"Then I should go home, my wife and children are hot on the bed, and I don't do anything, because doing it is wrong."

Qin Luo laughed and teased.

Huitong waved his hands and smiled.

"You obviously don't think so."

"Please taste it carefully. My cultivation is limited. I only have one seed. It is the realm of Buddha."

He said humbly.

Put down the pick.

Only responsible for recommendations, not for implementation.

Perhaps, this is the real practice, the master leads the door, and the practice is in the individual.

Huitong got up and left.

Qin Luo was still sitting, drinking tea silently, until the pot of tea was cold, but his mind was still full of thoughts, without a clear direction.

but……

He felt that this matter was extremely important to him.

I have said before that there are seven levels of skill.

The highest state is still running towards philosophy and the direction of Tao.

What I have experienced now, including what the old monk said, has given me more understanding of this direction.

Hard work is bad.

This is Su Dongpo, Su Shi, at the last moment of life, the condensation of thousands of wisdom.

Is Su Shi good?
Naturally it is very powerful.

The freehand, open-minded and transparent feeling of the words he wrote is only one person at all times and in all over the world, and no one can learn from it.

All because of the state of mind.

……

Qin Luo feels that at present, he really can't reach the point where "effort is not enough".

However, it didn't hinder him from having this thought in his heart.

Observe it from time to time.

then……

At the awards ceremony, he was decisive.

This matter, I don't want to go.

He left Suzhou.

I drove a car, took Sister Tea and Yang Zi, and headed south all the way to Longquan, a well-known sword casting place in ancient and modern China and abroad.

This is what I want to do.

The sword casting task issued by the system in my mind has been going on for some time.

Is "completing the task" also a kind of "focus"?
Is it also a kind of effort to think about whether to focus on completing the task?
Qin Luo was driving the car, thinking about these things in his mind, and felt more and more... pain in the ass.

Baby, you are in a good mood.

However, after driving hundreds of kilometers, Qin Luo gradually figured out some ways.

Hey.

What do I think it does?
A thought, as long as I don't think about it, it will naturally not appear.

If it does not appear, there will be no "phase".

Without appearance, naturally there will be no appearance.

There is no effort.

As a result, Qin Luo couldn't help but come up with some more interesting and wonderful associations, perhaps, this is the magical skill of "Wuxiang".

He suddenly felt...

In ancient and modern China and abroad, no matter how the times change, how technology advances, and how the economy evolves, but personally speaking, the mental journey of "cultivating the mind" may lead to the same goal through different routes.

Everyone has to go through one stage after another.

Advance in twists and turns.

After all, Su Shi was not so awesome since he was born. The words "effort is bad" are just his insights in his later years and dying.

And in his long life, there have also been various times of effort.

For example, that song... "Hezi Yu Mianchi Nostalgia".

Knowing what life is like everywhere, it should be like Feihong stepping on slush.Fingers and claws are occasionally left on the mud, how can Hongfei count things.

The old monk has died and turned into a new pagoda, and the broken walls can't see the old problems.Do you still remember the bumpy days, the long roads and people were sleepy and the donkeys were neighing.

Isn't that enough?
All the strength was used up to fly.

Thinking of this, Qin Luo couldn't help laughing softly.

Seeing the smile on Qin Luo's face...

Tea Sister: ...

Some helpless, but also a long sigh of relief.

Along the way, she knew that Qin Luo had something on her mind, and she didn't seem to have figured it out, but she didn't ask any more questions.

After all, she knew Qin Luo very well, and she couldn't get any results from asking.

When Qin Luo has figured it out thoroughly, he will definitely say it himself.

just now……

It seems that he has figured it out.

"Honey, what are you laughing at?"

So she asked with a smile.

Qin Luo glanced at her, sighed slightly, and said with a smile, "Now I know why the old monk laughed at me. I want to laugh at myself."

"However, it's not bad... This trip to Gusu can be regarded as coming. I have met many good friends and interesting people."

Sister Cha gave him a blank look, but said: "Master Huitong actually laughed at you? Oh, the old monk is really lost. I will call him later to criticize him."

This is of course a joke.

But also joyful.

"Yes, criticize him, give him incense money, insult him, break his Buddha heart."

"Send him another URL to watch the movie... It will ruin his practice."

Qin Luo agreed with a smile.

After I figured out the barriers in my heart, my heart was full of vitality and jubilation, with a little more lively wantonness.

Sister Cha was speechless.

gave him an angry look.

Don't choose what to say.

Say what?

Yang Zi, the little girl, is still in the car.

Not afraid of polluting the ears of the little girl.

Yang Zi looked at the nose and the heart, closed his eyes gently, pretending to be asleep, the long eyelashes trembled occasionally, and suppressed a smile.

Unexpectedly, Master can still be so "funny".

Compared with the previous image, the majestic and formal feeling has dissipated a bit, but it is a bit more chic.

At this time.

Qin Luo's phone rang suddenly.

After taking a look, it was Qiu Jingqi calling.

Connect easily.

"Alo, I have something to tell you."

Qiu Jingqi was very quiet, with a slightly reserved tone.

"Say."

"It's like this. A friend who is a businessman has taken a fancy to your work of Concubine Laughter. I don't know if you intend to sell it? The price is negotiable."

Qin Luo smiled.

"Let's go, but, Yang Jianjun, Boss Yang, has also revealed this idea before, so, I will put it on the auction website, and go shoot it yourself. Ah."

When Qiu Jingqi heard this, he also nodded with a smile.

He also had an explanation.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Luo instructed Sister Cha to post the work "The Concubine Laughs" on the Internet.

"Seven days of bidding time."

"The starting price is [-] million. Let them add the rest."

Sister Cha followed suit, but she was actually a little surprised.

"Sold it so soon, I don't want to play with it anymore? Isn't it a pity?"

Qin Luo waved his hands and smiled.

"The breeze and the bright moon are found in me, and it has no effect on me. It also has no effect on the breeze or the bright moon itself."

These words are a little Zen.

Sister Cha was in a fog.

Can't help gnashing teeth secretly.

"The old monk is really a bad person. He has taught everyone to be bad. He speaks like a god. Husband, you can't learn from him..."

She said resentfully and amusedly.

Qin Luo couldn't help laughing.

"It's not my fault, you were the one who asked him for fortune-telling first. Otherwise, I'll follow him to become a monk, and I'll just leave my six senses clean..."

Tea Sister: ...

He gave him another look.

"Do you think you're not a monk now? Although you've been through wine and meat, and you don't abstain from sex, the Buddha is sitting in his heart... Fortunately, I rescued you with beauty, otherwise you would really be turned into a stone."
