[comprehensive] not human

"That's not it!" Xiaoqing pouted, dissatisfied that she was a fool who only wanted to play in the eyes of her seniors, "I'm serious, I want to know what love is."

She approached Yan Bai, her face was so close that Yan Bai could clearly feel the warm breath blowing from her as she spoke, as well as the faint scent of rouge on her body.She stared at Yan Bai earnestly, her eyes were confused, revealing a unique temperament mixed with innocence and charm.Yan Bai heard a man next to him gasp, another man swallowed his saliva, and a woman scolded in a low voice: "Fox spirit." The most important thing is that Bai can feel a piercingly cold gaze, straight Straight into his back, the disapproval in that person's eyes, Yan Bai could imagine it without turning around.

He became acquainted with Fa Hai also by chance.Once he passed by the temple in Wei Town, and heard there was no usual miaomiao Sanskrit voice, only a calm and steady voice: "All conditioned dharmas are like dreams and bubbles, like dew like electricity..." He stopped involuntarily. Footsteps, listening to the voice began to explain the meaning of this Buddhist gatha, he had heard the Buddhist gatha before, but the monk's explanation was also very subtle, and unconsciously, he was fascinated by the words.When he recovered, Fa Hai was already standing at the gate of the temple, looking at him with complicated eyes.The two looked at each other for a long time before they turned around. Yan Bai followed the previous route to avoid the temple, while Fa Hai returned to the temple. After a while, the familiar Sanskrit singing of Yan Bai came out from the temple again.After that, Yan Bai would go there every day to listen to Fa Hai's lecture on Zen, and Fa Hai also acquiesced in his existence.

Until one day ago, Yan Bai was about to leave after listening to the Zen lecture as usual, when Fahai stopped him for the first time and told him that he would go to the central square of Wei Town to give a Zen lecture tomorrow.Yan Bai asked at that time: "Monk, you won't accept me?"

Fa Hai put his palms together in front of his chest expressionlessly, and recited a sentence of Amitabha: "If you make a mistake, I will accept you as it is."

"Senior, senior!" Xiao Qing's voice was close at hand, pulling back Yan Bai's thoughts.He woke up from the memory, rubbed his forehead, and pushed Xiaoqing's cheek that was about to kiss him: "Why do you suddenly want to ask this question?"

Xiaoqing raised her head aggrievedly, and complained: "It's my sister! She stays with honest people all day long and ignores me. I thought she was playing with honest people for fun and didn't tell me on purpose, so I went to ask honest people Man, I didn't expect my sister to be unhappy! I asked her what love is, but she didn't say anything, and let me think about it myself."

Yan Bai sighed: "Of course she will be upset, she and Xu Xian are already married, and seeing you pestering Xu Xian makes her jealous."

"Jealous? What is jealousy? Is it also love?" Xiaoqing eagerly pulled Yan Bai's sleeve and begged, "Tell me quickly, why sister and you both know about love, but I don't, please teach me quickly Me! What should I do to experience love!" Her voice became louder and louder, and the people around her could hear it clearly.Many people stared dissatisfiedly at the couple who were talking about love in the place where the master gave Zen lectures, and accused them of polluting the tranquility of Buddhism.

Seeing Xiaoqing's staring eyes, hands on hips and about to quarrel with other people, Yan Bai could only give up and continue listening to Zen, and took her out of the crowd.Turn left and turn right, and find a place where there is no one, it is a stone arch bridge erected on the river, under the bridge there are several awning boats on both sides, but now the people on the boat are going to listen to the master's lecture, leaving only the oars Immersed in the dark green water, with occasional ripples.

Xiaoqing was held by Yan Bai's hand, her face was full of displeasure, and she muttered to herself about the scolding from the group just now: "I'm not a vixen, I, Xiaoqing, am an upright snake demon!" But when Yan Bai stopped, she He regained his energy, and returned his attention to the previous question: "Now you can talk, what is love?"

Yan Bai was having a headache. He thought it would be better to ask Fa Hai this question. He believed that the monk who explained the Buddhist scriptures would be able to clearly let Xiao Qing understand that everything is a bubble, and these are not important. You have a little monster. It is better to practice a lot than to spend time thinking about what emotion is.He thought for a long time before he came up with a reluctant explanation: "Love is human nature, joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love and evil desires, these are also love."

"Happiness, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil desire..." Xiaoqing murmured and repeated, lowered her head and thought for a while before confirming: "Then sister is happy to honest people. I am also happy to honest people."

"You can't say that. Your sister loves Xu Xian. If you say it, do you love Xu Xian?"

"Love, what is love?"

Words are exhausting, what is love, what is love, these questions have been written, said, and explained by countless literati throughout the ages, but they still can't explain clearly, how can he explain it clearly in a few words.He sighed again and admitted to Xiaoqing: "I don't know either."

Xiaoqing's eyes widened: "Didn't you know before?"

Yan Bai said sincerely: "After being asked by you, I also had self-doubt. Xiaoqing, what is love, you can't tell you by asking others, you have to experience it yourself."

Xiaoqing frowned, and her whole face was wrinkled: "But my sister won't let me find Xu Xian to experience it."

Speaking of this, Yan Bai suddenly had an idea and said: "The relationship between your sister and Xu Xian is love, your sister and I are friendship, and I am also friendship with you, and you and your sister were family relationship before. There are many kinds of love , every kind of relationship is different, among them, love is the most selfish, it can only be between two people, no one else can interfere."

Xiaoqing frowned and thought about it for a long time, and finally yelled to give up: "It's too much trouble to be a human being! You have to learn to walk on two legs, and you have to learn love, and love is so troublesome! It's better to be a monster!"

Yan Bai smiled, as if he was echoing her or asking himself: "Yeah, it's so troublesome to be a human being, why do you need to be a human being?"

Xiaoqing clenched her fists, but still refused to give up: "Since my sister can do it, so can I! I'll find someone to experience what love is!" She broke free from Yan Bai's hand, turned around and walked away. run.Before Yan Bai had time to call her to stop, she saw her running back again: "Senior, how about just the two of us! It just so happens that you don't know now, and we learn from each other."

Yan Bai felt like he was shooting himself in the foot with a rock. He couldn't imagine himself talking to the little green snake in front of him affectionately, and he couldn't imagine Xiaoqing shyly discussing with him in the future: " Xianggong, I am pregnant with your eggs, do you want to have ten eggs this time, or twenty eggs?"

Feeling numb from the scene he imagined, Yan Bai gave up the idea of ​​telling Xiaoqing not to harm others, and pulled back his sleeve from her hand righteously: "No, you should go find someone else."

After that, no matter what Xiaoqing said, he would bite the answer to death and would not let go. In the end, Xiaoqing had to leave angrily, and Yan Bai was relieved.

Suddenly, with a thought in his mind, he tapped on the railing of the stone bridge and jumped onto the roof of the stilted building next to him.When he stood firmly on the roof just now, he saw that the embankment of a few rivers not far away was broken, and the turbulent Qiantang River gushed out from the gap at once, setting off a huge wave of more than ten meters, and the last A row of houses near the embankment were completely submerged.It was caused by the continuous torrential rain some time ago, coupled with the long-term disrepair of the river embankment, the hidden danger broke out immediately, and the people who gathered in the center of the town suddenly panicked, scattered and crowded, and some wanted to rush home Rescuing their infant children, some tried to flee outside the town, huddled together, panicked, about to be trampled to death before being submerged in the flood.

Fa Hai, who was sitting upright in the middle of the crowd, stood up at once, lifted his monk's robe and jumped up, and stood beside Yan Bai with his body as light as a swallow's toes.He looked at the damaged river embankment and frowned, and amidst the rumbling water and the cries of the people, he shouted in vain: "The water must be cured as soon as possible!" He took off the prayer beads hanging around his neck and twisted them on his fingertips to recite the Buddha's name. Seeing that the flood on this side was quelled under his retreat, Yan Bai jumped to the other side to control the river below to flow out of the town.

Bai Snake and Xiao Qing, who were also aware of the flood, came after them. They smiled at Yan Bai and worked together to force the rest of the flood back into the river.Under the joint efforts of the four, the sudden flood disappeared as fast as it appeared. Even before the people took out the wooden basins and barrels, the water level quickly dropped to the original position.White Snake and Xiaoqing put away their mana, came to Yan Bai's side, looked at the white-clothed monk over there, and asked in puzzlement, "Why did you stand up with that monk?"

Especially Bai Suzhen, she warned Yan Bai worriedly: "You still criticized me before, but you didn't get any better in the end. This monk is not easy to mess with, so be careful not to put yourself in it."

Yan Bai was expressionless: "He and I are different from you and Xu Xian, at least I will not marry him or have children for him. You..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiaoqing interrupted: "Okay! You two!" She pointed at Yan Bai and Bai Suzhen and shouted: "Sister, you won't let me try a monk, why can senior?"

Yan Bai instantly guessed who Xiaoqing wanted to learn about love before him, and it turned out to be Fa Hai.

Bai Suzhen opened her mouth, but before she could finish her explanation, Xiaoqing interrupted her: "Forget it, I know sister, you are going to say that I am shallow and can't compare with you two. Hmph! I must practice hard in the future, If you can do it, I will do it, if you can’t, I will do it too!" She said, jumped off the roof and ran away.Bai Suzhen smiled awkwardly at Yan Bai: "Xiaoqing is spoiled by me."

Yan Bai shook his head: "Leave her question aside, how are you and Xu Xian doing now?"

Bai Suzhen smiled: "My husband and I have a good time, you don't have to worry."

Yan Bai was silent for a while and nodded: "That's good."

As a result, a few days after Bai Suzhen finished saying this, Xiaoqing came to Yan Bai, and she grabbed Yan Bai's hand and shouted anxiously: "Senior, come quickly! The honest man is scared to death by me, sister is going to pick a Fairy Ganoderma lucidum save him!"
