Myriad Paths

The Buddhist Kingdom in the West, and the Kingdom of Shiluo.

Yucha Shiluo Kingdom is more than a thousand miles away, and the capital of the country is more than ten miles away.

The royal family in the country has lost its heirs, and the chiefs are competing with each other. Those who went there were subordinated to the Kapishi Kingdom, and the nearby Kashimila Kingdom was vassalized. The land is called fertile soil, the crops are prosperous, the springs are abundant, and the flowers and fruits are luxuriant.

The atmosphere is harmonious, the customs are light and courageous, and the Three Treasures are respected. Although there are many garlands, they are already extremely desolate. There are only a few monks, and they all learn Mahayana.

Li Qi and Shen Shuibi took a short rest here.

In fact, Li Qi followed the guidance of his sixth sense. He didn't know why he ended up here, but this was Wu Jin.

Wu Jin always does things this way.

This is a relatively wild country. There is only one eighth-level monk, but there are many eighth-level warriors, and even some primitive shamans, or shamans. There are constant wars and wars within the country, and there is no Buddha nature. .

As mentioned before: the customs are light and brave, although there are many garlands, it is extremely desolate and the monks are few and far between.

But after all, this is a Buddhist country, and monks often pass by to teach the Dharma. Therefore, what is believed here is not the dual cultivation of Buddha and demons, but Mahayana Buddhism.

Shen Shuibi and Li Qi took a short rest in the current Mahayana Buddhist temple.

The main reason was that Shen Shuibi had just woken up from the deduction and fell into the same state as Li Qi before, the way he would be in a daze from time to time, and occasionally start to think deeply.

How to say……

As expected of a couple.

Not a family, not a family, the signs before a breakthrough are so similar.

"Then, the two benefactors, please rest here, and the poor monk will retire." A kind-hearted old monk said to Li Qi with his hands clasped together.

Li Qi immediately stood up, left Shen Shuibi, came to the door, and said, "Thank you, Master, for taking me in."

"The donor does not need to be polite, but he is just staying for a while, so there is no reason to refuse. By the way, the bell rings every morning and noon. When the bell rings, you can go to the main hall to have some fast food. The monks in the temple do not eat after noon. But there are no such rules for pilgrims, so you can still go if you are hungry at night," the old monk said to Li Qi.

"Then I'll trouble you, Master." Li Qi performed a Buddhist salute.

The old monk returned the greeting and said: "It's just that the donor has a female family, so it's best to stay away from the backyard. There are young disciples there who are impetuous, so you still need to be careful."

While speaking, he glanced at Shen Shuibi.

Such a beautiful female benefactor, when those young monks saw her, they couldn't help but feel turbulent... So it was best not to let those boys see her. It would be better to do less than to do more.

Thinking of this, he helped Li Qi close the door.

Li Qi turned around and looked at Shen Shuibi.

The rabbit is still in a daze and in an energy-saving state.

"Yu'er." Li Qi patted her head.

Rabbit forced himself to wake up: "Well... what's wrong? Oh, it's already the Dajini Day, right?"

"Well, I found a secluded place where I can rest for a while. It's still in the Buddhist country and it's relatively quiet." Li Qi said.

"That's good... By the way, Tujinitian, she asked you to find Shariputra, right?" Rabbit asked.

"Yes." Li Qi nodded.

"Then we should go on this trip, but in my current state... it may take a while. I at least have to find a thread to calm down..." Shen Shuibi said.

"Take your time, don't be in a hurry." Li Qi touched her hair: "We have plenty of time. Let's rest here for a few days. Just treat yourself as home. Nothing will happen to you."

In this case, you really need to find the thread, not necessarily the answer, but at least have an idea.

Otherwise, it is probably impossible for any practitioner to remain calm.

This is an opportunity for breakthrough.

Shen Shuibi can't find a clue yet. She is trying to find her own thread among the endless mess.

This still takes some time or inspiration.

Some practitioners are trapped in this step, going crazy and confused, and many of them end up living in the world of mortals.

Of course, in some rumors and stories, they may be awakened by the unintentional words of a young man, and then once they have an epiphany, they can ascend to heaven again, their cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds, and their grades will also be improved.

Of course, these two types of people are definitely in the minority.

Most of them are like Shen Shuibi, who think seriously, turn all their past knowledge and thoughts into the motivation to move forward at the moment, and finally find their own answer.

If you can't find it, then this opportunity will naturally be wasted. Young Hero, please come again next time.

Of course, there are also some people like Li Qi. They are too smart, so they will have a lot of answers, all of which are placed in front of them for them to choose from.

At this time, the problem is huge, and it is also the most difficult thing that geniuses encounter.

So many side roads? Which one is correct?

If you go the wrong way, it is no joke that the road will be cut off. At that time, you can only take the risk of being completely hopeless and reincarnate to rebuild.

This was the case for Shariputra this time. The Demon Prince defeated him through debate and made him realize the problems in his practice, and finally he was reincarnated directly.

Fortunately, Li Qi has not encountered these things for the time being.

Shen Shuibi did not reply, but continued to think seriously.

Li Qize rested in a Buddhist temple and donated some sesame oil money. He couldn't live and eat for free.

After that, he wandered around, but still paid attention to Shen Shuibi at any time and anywhere.

However, while walking, Li Qi suddenly saw an old monk.

It is not so accurate to say that he saw it. In fact, the other party was sitting in the mountains about 200 miles away. Li Qi sensed it through the breath.

That is really an old monk.

He was hunched over and skinny. The dust on his body almost condensed into stone, and some plants grew on it.

It can be seen that this old monk has been sitting here for at least a hundred years.

Li Qi jumped lightly and came to the side of the old monk.

Li Qi knew this old monk. He had seen him before.

Once, in Baiyue, there was a young monk who claimed to go to the Western Paradise of Buddha, but passed by a place where demons and humans fought and prayed for the dead.

Li Qi did not know his name, but his Buddhist name was "Xinming" (see Chapter 354 for details)

The young monk at that time has really walked to the Buddhist Kingdom, and he is still in deep thought here.

And it seems that it is the same situation as Shen Shuibi.

The other party was already at the seventh rank, and it seemed that he was stuck at the limit of breaking through the sixth rank. This thought lasted for a hundred years until dust formed on his body, and the dust gathered into stone, and soil piled on the stone, and flowers grew in the soil, and vines grew out, almost covering the whole person.

"Master Xinming, I didn't expect to meet you again after more than a thousand years." Li Qi came to the side of the stone and smiled at the old monk in front of him.

The old monk moved slowly, but there was no other movement. He just slowly opened his eyes and looked at Li Qi. He was obviously confused.

But he thought about it, and soon he dug out the long-forgotten impression from the pile of miscellaneous items in his memory.

So, the old monk said: "It turned out to be the senior... It's really predestined. After a thousand years, I can still see the old friend."

"Your progress is quite fast. I heard that there are only eight rank here, and I didn't expect there is a hermit master like you." Li Qi smiled.

"Compared to the senior, I am not a great man. When I saw the senior in the past, I only felt that he was a mountain, like standing by the river and the sea. Now, when I see him again, it is like dust floating in the galaxy. I can't tell the difference anymore." The old monk sighed.

At the same time, Li Qi could also see that the other party's eyes changed from turbid to bright.

Divine Eye, this is the real Divine Eye.

After a thousand years, he has gone from a rudimentary form to truly mastering the "Divine Eye", so... even Li Qi was seen through by him, and he could even see Li Qi's cultivation.

After all, it is one of the six supernatural powers, which can see the life and death, suffering and happiness of sentient beings in the six realms, and see all kinds of forms and colors in the world without any obstacles.

Subtle and extraordinary, enlightened and clear, in the infinite and boundless worlds of the ten directions, all forms, colors, images and lights, no matter how coarse or fine, near or far, the Divine Eye can see everything.

After illuminating the good understanding and good vision, he also saw that all sentient beings who were born in various realms, except for the colorless heaven, continued to have karma and birth and death, and if the karma and karma were distinguished, all the roots were known without omission.

Appearance, color, life and death, karma, subtle roots, all causes and effects are in the eyes.

"No wonder you want to close your eyes and live in seclusion in the mountains. Everything you see with the divine eye must be painful, right?" Li Qi saw the other person's eyes, felt the looming gaze on him, and sighed.

The power brought by the divine eye, normally, can only be felt by the fourth or even third grade, but Monk Xinming has obtained this power now because of a coincidence...

This is not a good thing. When you open your eyes, you can see the infinite worlds in all directions, and the vast scenery outside the endless domain rushes into your eyes...

This is even more terrible than the true knowledge of the rhyme. After all, the true knowledge of the rhyme has a range limit, and Li Qi can also actively control the size of the convergence range. Generally speaking, he usually just looks at the surrounding circle, and he has become accustomed to the feeling of this information flowing through his brain.

But for Monk Xinming, he only needs to open his eyes to see the life and death, suffering and happiness of all beings in the heavens and the worlds.

All this will disturb his Tao heart.

Sometimes, knowing too much makes it difficult to take a step.

When there is only one choice in front of him, people can often move forward without hesitation, and he will look very determined.

But when there are millions of choices, this is the time to truly test his firm will. He needs to truly understand what he wants before he can move forward firmly.

And now, the choices given to Monk Xinming by the divine eye are too many for him.

So he closed his senses, closed his eyes, and retreated here, quietly digesting these powers.

"The power you have is about the same as mine, right? I can see your Daoyun, which is greedily collecting all the information nearby, and then throwing it to you regardless. You are the same as me, unable to control it." Monk Xinming sighed with sympathy.

"It's OK, I'm almost used to it. Do you need me to teach you some methods? Maybe I can help you control this state."

When Monk Xinming heard this, he was stunned at first, then he put his hands together and made a Buddhist salute: "Senior, are you serious?"

"You and I are in the same boat, why should I lie to you? I have also encountered your situation, but if it can help you, I do have a favor to ask for." Li Qi said so.

This is what Li Qi just realized.

The sixth sense was verified.

"Senior, you have done me a favor before, and I will repay you. Whether it succeeds or not, just tell me." Monk Xinming said so.

Li Qi nodded, and then, around him, the inner world quietly appeared, and he began to perform the law.

The method performed by Li Qi is a statistical method.

This statistical method was taught to Li Qi by Jijiu at Chang'an Imperial College. It can coordinate many complex data in the body and deduce many usable methods.

Now this algorithm has been modified a lot by Li Qi, specifically used to handle the accumulation of large amounts of data.

It's also very simple, just need to be simplified.

For example, a countable infinite number of points cannot be connected into a straight line, but by simply simplifying the points into line segments, the entire number axis can be filled with rational numbers without affecting practical applications.

These conveniences are not complete for "reality" and will also cause information distortion, but they are very valuable and can even be said to be necessary.

For example, when calculating pi, 3.14 is enough. At worst, 3.1415926 is used. Any more is unnecessary.

Using 7 bits to calculate the circumference of the Earth will have an error less than 1 meter, using 42 bits to calculate the lateral area of ​​the Milky Way will have an error less than 1 square meter, and using 62 bits to calculate the circumference of the observable universe will have an error less than 1 Planck length.

Therefore, as long as this simplification is promoted and classified, smooth deduction can be achieved.

Li Qi performed the method, and Monk Xinming listened carefully.

He has clairvoyance, so he doesn't need to worry about whether he can receive the information, he just needs to understand it.

Fortunately, this method is obviously within the scope of his understanding.

As Li Qi performed, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and even by the end, those eyes gave people a molten metal texture.

Li Qi even felt a little uncomfortable, as if he had been seen through.

It is indeed one of the six magical powers of Buddhism...

Being able to control this level of magical power at this level, he is enough to be called a 'Son of Buddha', right?

As the sermon continued, about half an hour later, the aura of Monk Xinming suddenly changed!

He already had enough foundation, but now that he got some points from Li Qiti, he actually made a breakthrough on the spot and became the sixth grade!

The information given by the clairvoyance is no longer oppression, but his assistance!

However, he quickly suppressed his breath and did not get up.

"Why don't you get up?" Li Qi stopped performing and asked curiously.

"There are still living things in my body. If I get up, wouldn't it be killing?" Monk Xinming replied in a very good mood.

"Haha." Li Qi just laughed, looked at the soil, stones, flowers and plants on his body, and said, "Then you may have to sit there until winter."

"I've been able to sit for a thousand years, so what's the harm in staying for another winter? It doesn't harm me, but it can save lives, so it should be like this." Monk Xinming said: "Let's not talk about this. Thank you for your kindness, senior. I dare to ask senior if you want me What help?"

"You have clairvoyance. I want you to help me see reincarnation and find someone." Li Qi said.

What a coincidence, but...it was Li Qi's coincidence.

Now, Li Qi is also a powerful person who can create coincidences.
