"Virtuous man! This is the number one gift, the most honorable among all gifts, and the reason why he uses the Dharma to make offerings to the Tathagata. After saying this, everyone is silent. His body burns for a thousand or two hundred years. After the past, his body It is exhausted." - "Lotus Sutra"

A few days later, Qianye was sitting alone by the incense table, with the same stick of incense, that wisp of green smoke, that stack of scripture scrolls, that stick of wolf hair, the same words and sentences, and the same pair of hands copying the scriptures.

The balls of paper, one after another, had piled up beside Qianye's clothes to form a hill.His mind is restless, and copying the scriptures is nothing more than forcing himself to concentrate in vain.

One day in the world, a thousand years in hell.At this moment, what happened to that person who has been floating in the sea of ​​blood for thousands of years?How is he?Will he hate himself?He...it turns out that everything he did was to protect me, but I blocked all the ways for him to come to see me.In Qianye's mind, what he couldn't get rid of was the desperate and sad look in Xue Barrier's eyes before he was drawn into the magic circle.What was he thinking at that time?Are you blaming me for being so heartless?

Thinking about it, Qianye suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.Greed, hatred and ignorance, resentment and hatred will meet, love will part, and you can't ask for it.Qianye's heart ached more and more, he could hardly breathe from the pain.Knowing that this is not right, it can't be done, but I just can't help it, and my heart is moved.

blood barrier!I miss you……

Qianye tightly grasped the page of paper under his hands, and the creases under the pale fingers were silently pouring out the thoughts and entanglements in his heart.However, there is no regret medicine.

After a long time, Qianye finally forced himself to calm down.No matter how bitter his heart is, no matter how unbearable he is, he will continue.This path of practice, even if one is alone, can only be lonely to the end.

He picked up a copy of the Lotus Sutra, and by such a coincidence, he saw the "Principal Works of Medicine King Bodhisattva" again.He recalled some time ago, the event of welcoming the Buddha's bone that was aroused in the court of the world, and of course, there was also the incident of Blood Barrier stealing the Buddha's bone from the eminent monk's dantian by wearing the death prisoner's skin of the admonishing minister.It was good to let him go back after he recovered from his injury, but now, he can't care about it.

Qianye lowered his head and continued to copy: "... I have made offerings, starting from samadhi, and said to myself: Although I offer to the Buddha with divine power, it is better to offer with my body. That is to say, take all kinds of incense—— Sandalwood, Xunlu, Doloupo, Biliga, sinking water, glue incense, and drinking the scented oil of Zhanbu Zhuhua, who have reached the age of one thousand and two hundred, apply the scented oil on their bodies, and wrap themselves in heavenly jeweled clothes in front of the Sun Moon Pure Bright Virtue Buddha, pouring it on their bodies. All kinds of fragrant oils, with supernatural powers and vows, come naturally, and the light illuminates the world of 80 billion Ganges sands."

This passage is about the previous life of the Medicine King Bodhisattva. In order to express his infinite reverence for his teacher, the Sun Moon Pure Brightness Buddha, he swallowed various spices, ignited the real fire of Samadhi, and burned himself in front of the Buddha. The story of feeding.What kind of respect and piety is that?Qianye shook his head, he remembered that Long Hua was still alive at that time, and he had clapped his hands in praise of such a fearless deed.In a blink of an eye, Venerable Longhua had also passed away, and Sanren from Baojie no longer came to the door.

Hehe, as expected, in the end, am I still the only one left?No, for a long time, I was the only one who sat under this bodhi tree and thought hard, but couldn't understand it.

Qianye turned another page, and suddenly, the light in his eyes straightened!He heard his own heartbeat, and with the greatest shock, he finished reading the rewritten line in the scriptures:

"The Medicine King Bodhisattva, offering his body to the Buddha is a true admiration and a true offering. All living beings in the three realms are amazed. Venerable Qianye, if our filthy bodies, lowly little devils, can spontaneously burn and make offerings to the Buddha, they will also be praised in the world. The first charity, the first rarity, the first diligence, the first bravery, the first piety, the first reverence or not? Qianye, you are my god and my Buddha. If I offer you my body, are you willing to do it again? Take a look at me? Qianye, I will sacrifice myself for you, okay?"

... Qianye, I will sacrifice myself for you, okay? ...

... Qianye, I will sacrifice myself for you, okay? ...

... Qianye, I will sacrifice myself for you, okay? ...

As if sensing something, Qianye raised his head abruptly, and saw a soaring flame burning ten steps away in front of the table!It's Lihun Samadhi!It is the true fire of the Three Realms that can burn and burn everything!

"Blood barrier! Don't! Don't———————!"

In the raging flames, the blood barrier stood there as if he was dead.The gradually forming corners of the mouth seemed to be smiling towards Qianye.The bloody figure swayed in the fire, raised his hips alluringly, straightened out, as if he could not feel the pain at all, let the fire burn on his body, but he was only deeply immersed in the fire of desire ...

Seeing that Qianye was looking at him, he stared at Qianye with those charming eyes, one hand kept moving while the other hand stretched out bloody from the flames, as if calling The name that he longed for endlessly...

"Qian... night..." Xue Barrier pursed his lips.

Qianye couldn't believe what he heard.It's the blood barrier, a hoarse roar from the depths of his throat - he can already speak, he can finally speak with his real voice!However, the first syllable he tried to pronounce was a final farewell.Those who are burnt to death by Samadhi Lihuo will not be reborn forever, and the same is true for demons.

The flames filled the sky, and that phantom seemed to have reached the climax of desire at the last moment, and at the same time, the figure disappeared into the void, leaving nothing behind.

Why...why...he came back just like this, he appeared in front of me just like this...but in such a resolute and tragic way.His appearance was to bid me farewell; his farewell was the cruelest punishment for my heartlessness.Why!There is such an infatuated demon in the world, is he crazy?Is he crazy?Hehe, he is a madman, but I, who is heartbroken like a knife, am really crazy.

Burning the head and burning the fingers, offering the body to the Buddha—what a offering to the Buddha!

Qianye stood up, and with a wave of his hand, all the scriptures on the table and on the ground were burned, and disappeared into the flames along with the blood barrier.

From then on, there was no more Qianye under the bodhi tree, and no more Buddhist scriptures in Qianye's heart.
