Eighteen: A Boy Worshiping Avalokitesvara (Part 1)

Yi Tianxing lay on the bottle, frowning, retching, as if he had been drinking, and replied: “Bodhisattva is so stingy, what is the difference between these nectar water and the tap water to you? Get some water somewhere, store it in this clean bottle for a few days, and it will naturally become nectar.”

As he spoke, he secretly stretched his hands under his body and gently rubbed his stomach. His belly was round, resting on top of the static bottle, and his movement was somewhat inconvenient. No wonder he was lying there all the time, refusing to crawl out, most likely he was “digesting food”.

A wooden comb flew from outside the sky.

No, it flew from the front of the dressing table, its momentum was stronger than an arrow, its movement was stronger than a thunderbolt, and there were a mixture of hissing and horrifying sounds, so scary.

Yi Tianxing groaned, clutching his forehead, and fell to the bottom of the bottle, with a bang, echoing in the belly of the bottle. He climbed up again cursingly, carefully showing only one head outside, looking at the graceful back of the Bodhisattva who threw the comb to make his surname, he couldn’t help but smirked. If Guanyin Bodhisattva had such a surname, it would be quite in line with Xiao Yi’s appetite. , it might be a lot more comfortable when we talk about business later.

“Drinking too much nectar doesn’t do much good.” The Bodhisattva slightly annoyed, “What’s more, you are already in the realm of a great Bodhisattva. If you still rely on these foreign things to cultivate your mind, you will inevitably fall into the lower vehicle.”

Yi Tianxing could see clearly that Bodhisattva’s brows showed a trace of heartache. It seemed that he drank all the water in the bottle, which really made her unhappy.

The Bodhisattva said again: “This nectar has to be stored in a clean bottle for three hundred years, and it can be effective by chanting the scriptures every day and adding the power of recitation. Last time, didn’t Binku give you a small bottle? You boy, how can you?”

Yi Tianxing smirked, patting the uniform porcelain color on the bottle mouth with his palm, screaming like a savage, hoping to pretend to be crazy to escape this problem.

An ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her parents-in-law, and a naughty boy still wants to worship Guanyin.

After dawdling for a long time, Yi Tianxing crawled out of the bottle, walked behind Guanyin Bodhisattva, hooked his fingers, and a futon flew over from the corner. He knelt down on the futon, facing the graceful back of the Bodhisattva, Kowtowed twice, but the eyeballs turned straight, staring at the moving waist curve faintly visible in the tulle, notKnow what to think.

After kowtowing, he got up and sat on the futon without waiting for the Bodhisattva to speak.

Kowtowing two heads is to repay Guanyin Bodhisattva’s love with him in the previous life, but it does not represent this life. Yi Tianxing will still recognize himself as the little boy holding the bottle beside the Bodhisattva.

The Bodhisattva smiled and turned around.

This is the first time in Yi Tianxing’s life that he really saw clearly that this Bodhisattva is not right to say the truth. The face of Guanyin Bodhisattva seems to be covered with a layer of crystal luster. Yi Tianxing is very sure that this is definitely not the real Bodhisattva. There seems to be some kind of magical power in that layer of crystal luster, allowing people to see the face of the Bodhisattva, but they can’t see the face of the Bodhisattva clearly. The facial features of the Bodhisattva are clearly displayed in front of him. Here The word “clear” means that Yi Tianxing can’t remember what the Bodhisattva looks like at all. Even if he is only one person away from each other, when he sees the Bodhisattva’s eyebrows, he forgets the color of his pupils and sees the Bodhisattva’s red lips. , I forgot that the earlobes of the Bodhisattva are like pearls, which are really wonderful.

Sure enough, the supernatural powers are astonishing and mysterious. Nan Wu is merciful, compassionate, and responds to every request. Guanshiyin Bodhisattva coughed and meditated, and it was too long to meditate in his heart. He stroked his chest, calmed down his mood, and respectfully said to the Bodhisattva: “Greetings, Bodhisattva.”

Manjusri is his brother, so Yi Tianxing has never respected him very much, but the relationship between Guanyin Bodhisattva and him is unusual. In the previous life, Yi Tianxing practiced as a boy holding a bottle next to the Bodhisattva, which meant he was half master and half servant. Opportunities, countless dangers, behind all these things, there is hidden the seemingly benevolent face of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

If the connection is deep, I’m afraid that even the old monkey is not as close as Guanyin and Yi Tianxing.

So Yi Tianxing showed great respect.

But Guanyin Bodhisattva didn’t take this kind of tricks. With a light wave of his slender jade fingers, the white gauze on his head went away without wind and fell gently on the dressing table. The black hair on the top of the Bodhisattva’s head fell like a waterfall.

The wooden comb had been thrown at Yi Tianxing as a hidden weapon before, and Yi Tianxing quickly salivated, walked behind the Bodhisattva with the wooden comb, and began to comb her hair very gently.

The Bodhisattva didn’t seem to be bothered, so he gave a slight hum, and leaned half on the dressing table to be served by him.

After a while of silence, the Bodhisattva suddenly said, “You want to please me so much, what are you asking for?”

Yi Tianxing said with a smile: “The Bodhisattva knows me, and I just ask the Bodhisattva to let me live.”

The Bodhisattva also smiled: “You are no longer the boy next to me in this life, and your spiritual powers have already surpassed the ordinary and become holy. That day, you witnessed each other with the Sunlight Bodhisattva at Mount Sumeru, and you didn’t suffer too much. If you want me to let you live, how can I let you go?” you live”

Yi Tianxing’s brows were soft and pleasing to the eye, like a little eunuch’s shameless face: “I beg Bodhisattva to let me have a way of life. Life in this heaven is too terrible. I am anxious to go back to the world to do business.”

“Then you go.” The Bodhisattva’s brows and eyes moved slightly, with a smile that was not a smile.

How could walking be so easy, Yi Tianxing scolded his mother secretly in his heart, but with the same expression on his face, he said softly: “The Bodhisattva is very clever, and he controls many things in the sky and the human world with one hand. My life is all under the arrangement of the Bodhisattva , if you don’t let me go, how can I go?”

He knew it well, and he was still smiling and smiling now, but after a while, he was afraid that there would be another storm, and he had to rely on himself for everything. The bodhicitta in his body has been completely exploded on the golden mountain outside of Mount Sumeru. Forced by the great sun of Sunlight Bodhisattva, the golden lotus green bodhi has been fully integrated into his body now, and there is no obvious boundary anymore. Yi Tianxing looked inside with the Heart Sutra, smiled slightly, and felt the improvement of the current realm.

Guanyin Bodhisattva noticed that the movements of his hands had slowed down and knew what he was doing. He smiled and said, “You will make offerings for one day at the Dharma Conference and soak in nectar for several days. Your blessings are always much deeper than others.”

Yi Tianxing sincerely thanked: “Worshiping the ancestors as teachers, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva empowering, and Laojun taking a bath in the furnace, these are all arranged by the Bodhisattva. I can have the current strength thanks to the Bodhisattva. Thank you very much.”

“Sincerely, don’t you blame me for secretly controlling your life?” Bodhisattva turned around and looked at him with bright eyes.

Yi Tianxing was a little flustered by the clear eyes, so he had to smile slightly to hide his true feelings: “Maybe a little.”

Yi Tianxing thought he was a monster since he was a child, and he almost became a child with depression. Later, he experienced countless dangerous and sad things, and these things were all controlled by the graceful Bodhisattva standing in front of him. Don’t complain, that’s naturally false, but the problem is that because this Bodhisattva controlled his life, Yi Tianxing was less decisive and more cautious than usual.

“You asked me to practice in the lower realms because of the birth of Maitreya that was mentioned at the Fa Conference?” After thinking for a while, he still couldn’t help asking.

The Bodhisattva smiled, and the wood grain on the dressing table seemed to stretch out in an instant.

Yi Tianxing took a deep breath: “You told the master that I can help him get out of trouble, that’s why he tried to lure me into Guiyuan Temple, accepted me as an apprentice, and then asked Bin Ku to say that I am a Buddhist scripture learner. It’s all your arrangement, why does it mean to learn from the scriptures?”

“What is the purpose of learning the scriptures?” The Bodhisattva looked at him tenderly: “The last time I learned the scriptures, I achieved two Buddha positions for Mount Sumeru.Obtaining the scriptures to save sentient beings, becoming a Buddha is just a stop on the road, and the scriptures you have learned in this life is to become a Buddha, to follow the Buddha’s will and save sentient beings. ”

“What about Ye Xiang?” Yi Tianxing said with a wry smile: “In this life, he was almost beaten to death by Chen Sanxing when he was a child, and later he was saved by Binku. It seems that it was also your arrangement.” He suddenly looked into the Bodhisattva’s eyes and said: ” Chen Sanxing’s sect is called Nanhaimen, don’t tell me, he was also arranged by you in the lower realm.”

“It’s not an arrangement.” The Bodhisattva smiled and said, “The Nanhai Gate was originally a branch of the Guanyin Gate.”

“The matter of Meiling was also arranged by you.”

“Mashizhizhi Bodhisattva persuaded the monks in Meiling to practice the method of seeing the Buddha. The eighteen arhats on Mount Sumeru almost fell into the abyss forever. It is not convenient for me to come forward in person, so I have to borrow the hands of you and Brother Manjusri to rescue those arhats.” The Bodhisattva replied calmly. .

“Don’t say that Ye Xiang’s middle finger Buddha finger relic has nothing to do with you.” Yi Tianxing looked into her eyes and said quietly: “I escorted the Buddha finger relic to go on a tour, which was also arranged by Bin Ku, and the relic was lost before my eyes. , Ye Xiang happened to arrive in Hong Kong again, don’t say that your supreme magic power is not hidden in these things.”

“It has nothing to do with mana, it’s just an arrangement.” Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said quietly, “For five hundred years, Mount Sumeru has always wanted to change the situation of being passively beaten.”

President Yi Tian sighed: “And everything after I went to heaven is influenced by you. Although I know it, I can’t resist the temptation to have you as a backer behind me. As a result, step by step, everything is in accordance with your arrangement. Walk until you meet Zhenwu.”

After he sighed, there was a smile on his face, and he stared fixedly at the face of Guanyin Bodhisattva, as if he wanted to compare this face with the one that was always watching him from the distant clouds no matter in the human world or in the heaven. The faces of the Bodhisattvas overlapped.

This face is very merciful and terrifying, it seems to be able to calculate everything, it seems to be able to arrange everything, omnipotent, omniscient, it is a demon.

Yi Tianxing felt a chill in his heart.

“Don’t look at me like that.” Guanyin Bodhisattva stood up with a smile, and walked to the entrance of the cave. The light light from outside came in from outside the cave. In the light of the sun, it looks extremely holy.

“I can’t count everything, and I can’t arrange everything.” Guanyin Bodhisattva’s voice seemed a little tired, “It’s been five hundred years. For today, I have waited for five hundred years and arranged for five hundred years. There is already dust in my heart, and I am exhausted.”

She paused for a moment before sighing, “Even if I can count everything, I’ve miscalculated one thing.”

“whats the matter”

The Bodhisattva turned his head, against the skylight, his face hidden in the shadows: “I miscalculated your surname, after all, you are the canopy brought back by the Buddha from the beginning of the creation of the world, the surname loves freedom and is not bound. So if you don’t take the road I arranged, it will take a lot of work.”

Yi Tianxing laughed, knowing that the Bodhisattva was referring to Lin Bo from Taiwan, Mo Sha, the father and son of the Gu family, and such nonsense things are also true. If it were someone else, with so much power around them, they might have already settled down in the world. Make a bigger move and get a bigger benefit. He thought for a while and said with a smile: “I’m not a fool, since I know that you arranged the person and the way, why should I go that way?”

In the past six or seven years, there has always been a big fear in his heart, and what he fears is that the bastards of the Buddhist family will toss some shit in order to save people. There used to be a legend that in order to sharpen the heart of a monk, he first gave it prosperity, family, friendship and love, and then peeled it off one by one. In the last autumn wind, when the leaves fell and the lights were gone, that monk realized the Dao. how.

Shit, what if I have a good time in the world, but in the end, I am completely wiped out by this Bodhisattva, I don’t care, what should I do if my dear friends are belching

Therefore, Yi Tianxing has always been very careful, and has cut off contact with mortal friends in the secular world. He Wei and Hu Yun and his like have long since stopped contacting, just in case. As for the old monkey Ye Xiang who gets along on weekdays, it is estimated that this Bodhisattva does not have that kind of ability.

“I was wondering if it was a mistake to ask you to worship him as a teacher.” The Bodhisattva didn’t know the complicated things Yi Tianxing was thinking, frowned and said to himself: “He was born a stone monkey naturally, but he put the cruel All the force was passed on to you, after you ascended to heaven, you went around and killed the five princesses, forming an unsolvable enmity with the Jade Emperor, I don’t know how much effort it will take to resolve this story in the future.”

Yi Tianxing looked at her slightly sad face, but became angry for some reason, and said with a sneer: “The Bodhisattva’s words are so unreasonable. I think I didn’t know the whereabouts of Xiao Wu when I was outside the temple. It all depends on the Bodhisattva floating out of the clouds and secretly pointing out, why do you say such things today?”
