At the beginning of Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, I can transfer experience

Chapter 52

On the second floor of the Sutra Pavilion, a gentle breeze blew, and a young monk expressed his youthful confusion.

Jiezhi looked at Chen Shuai eagerly, with a clear desire for knowledge in his eyes. He thought about this question all the way but still couldn't come up with an answer.

"Are you worried that if you let this monster go today, will you worry about her doing evil and hurting innocent people in the future?"

Chen Shuai guessed Jie Zhi's confusion, so he asked.

In Chen Shuai's past life memory, this question seemed to be a question that almost every Taoist monk would encounter. He just didn't expect that at his current age, Jie Zhi would ask this question.

After hearing this, Jiezhi nodded quickly, looking forward to Chen Shuai's answer. Jiezhi, who could answer his question in one sentence, should be able to give him a satisfactory answer, right?
It's a pity that Chen Shuai shook his head without hesitation: "I can't give you an answer to this question, because I can't use the certain present to speculate on an uncertain future. They say that people's hearts are unpredictable. Could it be that the heart of a demon is... Isn’t it difficult to predict?”

"Brother, what do you mean?"

"Just let nature take its course and have a clear conscience."

Chen Shuai gave an extremely simple yet hard-to-refute answer. Jiezhi nodded after hearing this, showing an expression that seemed to understand.

"So what choice did you make in the end?" Chen Shuai asked curiously.

"Me? I imprisoned her in the Pagoda."

This answer stunned Chen Shuai. He thought Jie Zhi would let go of the demon.

"still have a question."

Soon, Jie Zhi stopped worrying about this issue and said instead.

"You said."

Chen Shuai slowly swept the floor, waiting for Jie Zhi's question.

Jie Zhi cleared his voice and said, "It's still a problem related to demons."

"I met another demon. I saw him eating a living person alive, so I surrendered him. However, he told me that he realized his mistake. He was willing to put down the butcher knife and spit out the living person, but the living person was suffocated to death. Then he asked me if he could become a Buddha immediately now that he had put down his butcher knife, and asked me to let him go."

This time, Jiezhi didn't talk nonsense, but directly asked the question. After listening to Jiezhi's story, Chen Shuai was speechless. Where did this little guy come from so many strange and different problems?

Seeing Jiezhi's doubtful look, Chen Shuai said, "Don't you already know the answer?"

Hearing this, Jiezhi shook his head: "Although I imprisoned him in the pagoda, I actually don't know the answer, so senior brother Jieshuai, can you tell me why?"

"The Buddhist scriptures I recited once told me that you can immediately become a Buddha by laying down your butcher's knife. Now, although this demon has put down his butcher's knife, I don't know why. Whenever I want to let him go, I think of the innocent people who were eaten alive by him. , so I finally chose to catch him.”

"Then, is it true that you put down your butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately?"

There was deep doubt on Jie Zhi's face. This was a question that could destroy his faith, because what he learned was completely different from what he experienced. When the latter gained the upper hand, Jie Zhi's Buddha mind was likely to break.

Chen Shuai thought for a moment and then asked: "Before answering your question, let me ask you, what do you understand by a butcher knife?"

"What do I understand by a butcher's knife? The demon asked me to forgive him for swallowing people. Swallowing people is killing, and it is also... a sin!" Jie Zhi replied.

"He put down his sins and became a Buddha immediately. So has he put down his sins now?"

"I let him go, but I imprisoned him in the pagoda."

"Isn't being imprisoned in the Pagoda by you another kind of letting go?"

Hearing this, Jie Zhi's confused eyes became brighter and brighter, until finally, like stars at night, a majestic aura spurted out from Jie Zhi's body. After Chen Shuai's enlightenment, Jie Zhi not only relieved his confusion, He also made a breakthrough by the way. "The cultivation level of Jie Zhi should be like the three innate realms. Now he is in the same realm as me, but with my strength, he should be worthy of three Jie Zhi."

I have to say that I still have the talent for Jie Zhi. I went to Xuankong Temple to cultivate my cultivation across two realms, reaching the third innate realm, and now I have broken through to the fourth innate realm.

Jiezhi's breakthrough caused a lot of commotion. There weren't many people on the second floor. He saw someone breaking through but didn't disturb him. After a long time, Jiezhi's breath calmed down. He looked at Chen Shuai and said with surprise:
"Thank you, senior brother, I understand."

Chen Shuai waved his hand, smiled and said nothing. Jiezhi didn't care when he saw this, said hello to Chen Shuai and left happily.

He decided to find some demons to test his strength after breaking through. If possible, he hoped to persuade them to put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately.

After Jiezhi left, calm returned to the second floor.

However, Chen Shuai's heart could not calm down for a long time. If he encountered the problem of Jizhi, what choice would he make?
Fortunately, Chen Shuai actually has an answer to the second question.

Rare is the first question. If he really encounters a demon who has never done any evil in his life, will he surrender to him?
The answer is no.

But the problem is, even good people can turn into bad people. Who guarantees that good monsters won’t turn into bad monsters?
"All actions are impermanent, all dharmas have no self, Amitabha."

Chen Shuai groaned, decided not to think about such a troublesome problem, and continued to sweep the floor.

Time soon came to evening, and Chen Shuai went to the pagoda to clean it as usual. There had been more fallen leaves recently, but it had little impact on him.

After cleaning, Chen Shuai returned to his residence, and Jie Cao was still sweeping the floor. When he saw Chen Shuai, Jie Cao said hello respectfully.

Chen Shuai responded with a smile and then returned to his room.

Days like this continued until the afternoon of the third day. When the mechanized voice of the system sounded in his mind, Chen Shuai's body was undergoing unknown changes.

This was an inner change. His true energy was surging in his body, constantly tempering his physical body. This change lasted for half a stick of incense before it stopped.

"Dragon-Elephant Prajna Kung Fu has reached its limit!"

Chen Shuai opened his eyes and felt the changes in his body. His whole body seemed to be full of power, which made him have the urge to take off his clothes and show off.

Fortunately, he suppressed the conflict in the end and did not show anything strange.

Chen Shuai pretended to be nonchalant and planned to continue sweeping the floor. He heard a click, and the broom in Chen Shuai's hand suddenly broke because he could not bear Chen Shuai's strength.

"The strength has increased a lot. Although I tried my best to control it, I may not have adapted in a short period of time, so I broke the broom."

Putting down the scrapped broom, Chen Shuai took out a new one and started sweeping the floor. This time, under his careful control, the broom did not break.

Sweeping, Chen Shuai fell into deep thought: "With my current strength, can I defeat ten Jiezhi?"

Immediately, he shook his head and gave up this unrealistic idea.

"However, the so-called power of ten dragons and ten elephants after mastering it is an exaggeration."

Although it has not been tested yet, it is far from reaching the power of ten dragons and ten elephants, but it still has ten thousand pounds.

"It seems I need to find time to test it out."

Just when Chen Shuai was thinking about testing his strength, Zhenyu found Chen Shuai and returned the martial arts secret book "One Reed Crossing the River".
