The Eight Winds of Rebirth

Zhao Yuan came back after talking with Mou Fei for a while.

Seeing his appearance, Gu Xiangtan said, "Since there are guests at home, let's go and accompany them first."

Zhao Yuan sat down again, picked up a piece of lotus root with chopsticks and put it in Gu Xiangtan's bowl, and gave him a slight sideways glance.

"Are you chasing me?"

Gu Xiangtan hurriedly said, "...No!" He almost choked because he was too anxious, which was a rare gaffe.

An Yin on the side immediately brought tea to cheer him up, and then looked up to see Zhao Yuan frowning at him. Although the expression looked dissatisfied, in fact, there was helplessness in the eyes and a slight trace of indiscernibility. Distressed.

"I'll sit down for a while." Zhao Yuan looked away.

Gu Xiangtan wiped his mouth, smiled and nodded.

As a result, Zhao Yuan didn't leave until the evening, and she took a snack to see that Gu Xiangtan's complexion was getting better, and told him not to touch the wound with water, and if she felt unwell at night, she asked Su Xi to come to her quickly.

Gu Xiangtan watched his back leave, stared blankly for a while, and then said to An Yin, "I'm going to the temple."

An Yin hurriedly prepared, and went towards Xiangguo Temple together with Gu Xiangtan.

Xiangguo Temple is two or three miles away from here. You have to climb over a small hill. From a distance, you can see a majestic palace with purple mist and incense burning. Can light up half the sky.

Daye believes in Buddhism. It is rumored that when the Taizu founded the country, he was blessed by the Buddha. He appeared many times to help the world avoid disasters and disasters. Huan live up to the kindness, the Buddha was grateful for the sincerity of the Taizu, so he sent the next spirit Buddha into the flesh to accompany and guide the maze from generation to generation. Each generation of spirit Buddha is born with the birth date left by the previous generation of spirit Buddha when it passed away. Find them and take them back to the temple to teach them to grow up. Xiangguo Temple is a temple hand-picked by the royal family. There are 88 subordinate temples under it, and each subordinate temple has 88 small subordinate temples. From the nobles of the royal family to the ordinary people, they all recite and believe in Buddhism, and their sincere hearts can represent the sun and the moon.

And seeing the Lingfo is like seeing the face of the sky. What's more, the Lingfo can distinguish the body of a real dragon at a glance. If the Lingfo is unwilling, not everyone can easily sit on this throne change.

It's just that maybe he is exhausted for the country and the people, or maybe this troubled world can't keep the destiny of heaven and man, and every generation of spiritual Buddhas has gone away before they arrive, leaving only the merits of kindness and virtue to be praised by the world.

After walking for about a stick of incense, Gu Xiangtan arrived at Xiangguo Temple.

When all the monks saw him, they all came forward to salute, and Gu Xiangtan greeted them all with a smile. As an imperial temple, casual visitors with flat hair naturally couldn't come here. Generally, only the Zanying family can stay for a few days as pilgrims, and those people at this time Hearing the news, he also wanted to come to pay respects, but was blocked by the nurse.

Gu Xiangtan arrived outside the presiding courtyard, left An Yin behind, opened the door and walked in alone.

Abbot Guanshi sat cross-legged on the futon, holding a Buddhist bead and chanting sutras with his eyes closed. Feeling the movement in front of him, he slowly opened his eyes.

Gu Xiangtan's memory of the abbot was still the same as what he saw a few days ago, but after going back and forth, he unexpectedly found that even though ten years had passed, the abbot Guanshi hadn't changed at all! ?

The abbot saw him staring blankly at him, he didn't say much, and looked back indifferently, only to pause when he touched the center of Gu Xiangtan's brow, and his half-drooped eyelids suddenly widened.

Just when Gu Xiangtan was debating how to tell the abbot about his regretful adventure that he couldn't sort out, Guan Shi spoke up first.

He said, "Wake up, are you enlightened?"

Gu Xiangtan was startled, "What?"

The abbot had some doubts about what he said, but he seemed to be sure in the next moment, and couldn't help but nodded to Gu Xiangtan.

"You finally enlightened..."

Gu Xiangtan was so shocked by these words that he didn't recover for a long time.

When he was only seven years old, he left home thousands of miles away to come here. Everyone said that Gu Xiangtan was extremely talented and noble. Shake his head.

In the second year, it was still the same, in the third year, in the fourth year... until Gu Xiangtan left Beijing at the age of 13, the look of hope in Abbot Guanshi's eyes had faded to the point of disappearing.

But now that he was undergoing great changes, he suddenly opened up in a flash?

Could this be the reason why the Buddha asked him to come back?

Is it a catastrophe that he must go through?

Gu Xiangtan is still unclear.

This is also the reason why he came to seek Abbot Guanshi.

Gu Xiangtan hesitated for a moment, then said lightly, "Master Abbot, wake up... I had a long, long dream."

In the dream, he killed resolutely, his hands were bloody, he didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of him, one by one, generation after generation, he finally paid for the lives of the one hundred and nine members of his Zhao family who died in vain!

He has committed a lot of crimes and has nowhere to redeem him, yet he still tarnishes the name of Lingfo. He is unworthy of the Tathagata of Heaven and Earth, and made people aware of his insensibility. Gu Xiangtan is really willing to die.

However, Guanshi seemed to see through his heart, and he didn't look sideways in any horror at this. Instead, he nodded, announced the sound of the Dharma, and said, "Wake up, there is God's will in the dark."

The abbot also said this sentence before he died that day!

What does this mean?What do you say?

Gu Xiangtan's heart was full of turmoil, and he couldn't help asking, "If I am really enlightened, will I be ordained?"

Guan Shi looked at his pupils for a moment, then shook his head.

"Your heart knot is still unbroken, and the fate of the world is still unbroken. Now is not the time."

Gu Xiangtan frowned, "But what if I can't break it for the rest of my life? Or, like in a dream, repeating the same mistakes again!? What should I do?" Thinking of the tragic death of relatives in the Gu family, and thinking of the remaining party who took Zhao Yuan's life, Gu Xiangtan Xiang Tan faintly hated again. Those who harmed them in the previous life paid the price. In this life, their family members still died tragically, but they were still at ease.Knowing it was wrong, Gu Xiangtan really couldn't bear this tone!

The abbot didn't say a word for a while, waiting for Gu Xiangtan to calm down a little bit.

"It's the awakening obsession that is confused..."

Gu Xiangtan managed to suppress the air pressure rushing to his chest and abdomen, his face was full of exhaustion, he knew that if he couldn't get rid of this demon, if he couldn't get rid of this melancholy, sooner or later... he still wouldn't be able to pass that test .

When he looked up, he saw Abbot Guanshi waving to him, Gu Xiangtan hesitated slightly, and stepped forward.

Guan Shi patted his head, with a rare look of love and compassion in his eyes.

He said quietly to Gu Xiangtan, "Put the green seedlings in the fields with your hands, and you can see the sky in the water when you lower your head. The way is to be pure in heart, and it turns out to be forward when you step back."

pure heart...

stepping back...

Gu Xiangtan was stunned, and after reading these two sentences silently, his eyes lit up for a while, and he knelt down facing Guanshi!

Guan Shigui is the abbot of Xiangguo Temple, but he is still a bit short in front of the Lingfo, but Gu Xiangtan's kneeling, the abbot has suffered, because he knows that it is not him who wakes up to kneel, but his heart. Pure morality and a courageous heart.

……

After leaving the presiding courtyard, most of the big stone in Gu Xiangtan's heart had gone. He looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and suddenly thought of the rumors about the Lingfo.

After enlightenment, each generation of spiritual Buddhas can know the past, know the future, life and death, flesh and bones.

This is the ability of Lingfo that even the children in the market know, but how much of it is word of mouth, and how much is the sincerity of the people's envelopes. Lingfo often dies young, just like Zhao Su said at that time So, if he has such superb skills, why can't he even control his own life?

So it turned out that even Gu Xiangtan himself didn't believe it.

But now...

People who live and die: No matter in the previous life or a few years ago, I have saved Zhao Yuan, and pulled him back from the hands of King Yan twice.

Flesh and bones: Didn't he live again?

As for knowing the past, knowing the future...

It wasn't possible before, but now...it's possible!

Gu Xiangtan knew the ups and downs that Daye would go through in the next ten years, who would live, who would die, and who would be the next generation of kings.

Could this be the miracle of Lingfo?

Every generation of Lingfo...is this the case?

For some reason, Gu Xiangtan suddenly trembled.
