The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain

"This is true."

Fa Hai is decisive.

If it was said that when he met Bai Gui and his party before, he was not too sure that Bai Suzhen was the snake demon. But just now Bai Suzhen came out and said that she wanted to use spiritual herbs to resolve the grudge. He was already convinced that Bai Suzhen was the snake demon who stole his elixir.

Bai Suzhen heard this and wanted to step forward to explain.

Bai Gui raised his sleeves and waved his hands, signaling Bai Suzhen not to speak yet.

"Zen Master Fahai."

"I have always been wise, and everyone in Lin'an City has heard about it. So the snake demon causing trouble to Chao Gang, this... I'm afraid it's just lies."

"Since the two of you have old grudges, it can be seen that what you said was not out of public motives, but because of private grudges."

"Now Zen Master is talking nonsense and wants me to deal with my beloved concubine. If he makes a joke and looks at each other with a smile, I will forget the blame. If Zen Master Fahai really has this intention, I am not a weak person who can be bullied."

Bai Gui said coldly.

Although he knew that Fahai might have millions of truths, Bai Suzhen was his Taoist companion, and his butt would definitely sit with Bai Suzhen.

Pretending to be righteous is most likely just a joke in the eyes of others.

It is right for relatives to hide from each other.

If Bai Suzhen really committed something that was outrageous and resentful, it would be excusable for him to kill his relatives out of justice, but now this incident alone would not allow him to side with Fahai.

Fahai said nothing.

He had heard about the power of Emperor Bai Gui.

The person in front of me is the founder of the country.

If he were an ordinary emperor, he could still put on the air of being an outsider, but in front of the Founding Patriarch, he would not believe these lies, and he would be submissive when he should.

Seeing this scene, Bai Gui softened his tone and said, "Zen Master Fahai, Concubine Hui may have offended someone, but you are so aggressive. This is a violation of the Buddhist precepts of anger and delusion. To take a step back, I I agreed to your idea, but Zen Master Fahai, what did you get?"

"Although Buddhists also have Vajra's wrathful eyes, I see that Concubine Hui has always been kind and has no intention of harming others. Even though she is really a monster, she has not committed any murder..."

"Monks, sweep the floor and don't hurt the lives of ants, and cherish the moths and cover the gauze lamp."

He said again.

In addition to Bai Suzhen's incident, in Bai Gui's view, Fahai may not necessarily not be a good person. It's just that Bai Suzhen robbed him of the opportunity, and he was blinded by hatred.

Besides, Fahai has never done anything evil to human beings.

Breaking up Xu Xian and Bai Niangzi is not a bad thing, after all, humans and monsters have different paths. Xu Xian doesn't have the ability to avoid future troubles.

Focusing on getting rid of demons is a good deed!

It's just a different stance.

"Amitabha."

Fa Hai recited a Buddha's name but said nothing.

He thought about the vision of Emperor Qian that was rumored in the market and the emperor's aura in the Bai family's ancestral tomb in Lin'an, and began to have some speculations about Bai Gui's identity.

It's just that... this only made him let go of this period of anger, but he was still quite entangled in his heart.

If he takes a step forward, he may not be able to ask for it.

Taking a step back, the more I thought about it, the more angry I became.

A dilemma.

"Zen Master Fahai, if you still can't let go of your crazy thoughts."

"Look at the ferryman on the West Lake..."

Bai Gui pointed to the boatman on the edge of the West Lake who he had just given a thousand pieces of gold to.

One thousand guan of money weighs a lot.

The boatman's handling was very laborious, so he hasn't left yet.

The bodyguards accompanied him, carrying a lot of newly minted magic money with them. Giving favor to Xiangzi was one of the purposes of Bai Gui's trip. In addition, the newly minted Dharma coins are much more valuable than ordinary copper coins. Bai Gui also wanted to circulate the Dharma coins, so the thousand pieces of gold he gave to the boatman were all brand new Dharma coins and he did not give them to Jiaozi.

"I gave this thousand gold to the ferryman..."

"If I gave it to him, this money is his. If I didn't give it to him, how could he have such a thousand pieces of gold?"

Bai Gui said word by word.

He didn't say it clearly, just pretending to be Zen.

Fahai understood.

In the spring of the eleventh year of Shaoxing, the boy who vomited the elixir into the West Lake was none other than Emperor Qian in front of him.

Emperor Qian gave him the elixir, so Bai Suzhen pledged herself to repay his kindness.

The elixir is priceless.

rather than his.

Bai Gui gave it, so that Bai Suzhen and he could have this elixir. If Bai Gui doesn't give it, neither Bai Suzhen nor he can have this elixir.

If Bai Gui is just an ordinary person who vomits out the elixir, it can be argued that Bai Gui does not have this opportunity and does not have the blessing of digesting the elixir.

But Fahai has now understood that Bai Gui is also a Taoist, so this theory does not make sense.

In other words.

An ant accidentally carried a piece of gold. There were two pedestrians on the road. The pedestrians fought for it. The one who fought first took away the gold. The one who came later said that whoever wanted to see it would have a share, and they would split it 50-50. Because of this, the two People form grudges.

But now Bai Gui is not the ant, but a person with the same identity as the two pedestrians. He has lost an ingot of gold. Even if the two pedestrians see it, they cannot go to fight for it because the ingot of gold belongs to the owner. , not something without an owner.

It's that simple.

It seemed that Fahai was lucky enough to get this opportunity, but in fact, the gold ingot, or the elixir, was owned by someone and was not something he could get.

Bai Gui didn't say anything about Lu Zu.

This matter is a secret that is kept secret and cannot be brought to light.

But you can’t say it openly, but you can still do it if you give some hints.

As a scholar who came from an imperial examination, he knew best how to avoid taboos. Hiding evil intentions and hinting at things are all tricks he plays in his spare time.

Fa Hai gradually realized.

He only got involved by chance.

He was not among the places destined for the elixir.

With this premise, there was no room for anger in his heart.

"Amitabha, how good! How good!"

"The young monk was almost misled by his crazy thoughts."

Fahai smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Even if he takes the elixir, what should he give Bai Gui in return? !

You can't learn from Bai Suzhen.

But if he didn't learn from Bai Suzhen, he didn't have much, otherwise he wouldn't be obsessed with this elixir.

"There is no need to give this spiritual grass to the young monk."

"Please also ask the donor to keep it."

Seeing Bai Suzhen handing over the jade box containing the spiritual herbs, Fahai twisted the beads in his hands and refused.

He turned around, leaning on his Zen staff, and left step by step.

Although the spiritual grass is good, he has already understood the truth behind it. What shame would there be in accepting this spiritual herb again?

"Flowers in the mirror and moon in the water, seeking the Dharma from the fate."

"Goodbye, Zen Master Fahai."

Bai Gui returned the greeting.

Now that Fahai was free from obsession, he didn't mind and gave Fahai some pointers.

Although the elixir had no connection with Fahai, Lu Zu and Lishan Mother secretly used Fahai as a pawn.

It's just that Bai Gui didn't explain this.

The words fell.

Fahai paused as he left, seeming to have some enlightenment. He looked to the west, toward the Buddhist temple, and saluted with his hands together, "The young monk has been doing good deeds and meritorious deeds for six hundred years since he became spiritual. It turns out that the Buddha The young monk has not been abandoned."

"Amitabha."

He smiled in relief.

It seems that the elixir has no chance with him.

But in fact, it gave him a fortune.

An eminent monk should be free from all four elements and should not be affected by anger and delusion.

He has a kind heart and does good deeds, and now, in this creation, a kind nature has been planted in him. This is his true opportunity for enlightenment.

An elixir can only increase mana.

Bai Suzhen needs to survive the love crisis before she can become an immortal.

And the same goes for Fahai.

Cultivation of one’s life but not one’s nature is the first disease of cultivation.

With his good nature, he made up for his final shortcoming in becoming a Buddha.

"I thanked the officials for their guidance."

"If the officials send you, I will definitely be rewarded."

Fahai turned around and bowed deeply to Bai Gui.

Although what Bai Gui said was a simple truth, it was of endless benefit to him.

This is the gift of enlightenment and must be repaid.

"You're welcome, Zen Master Fahai."

Bai Gui smiled.
