    Originally, Xue Feng wanted to back down, but under Zhang Zhuoyang's insistence, and because Li Rui and Yu Meixia also returned home here last time and had never been to the top of the mountain, no one accompanied him down the mountain, so he had to bite the bullet and follow them up.  climb.  After more than two hours of arduous trekking, not only Li Rui was out of breath, but Yu Meixia was also sweating on her forehead, out of breath from exhaustion, and her footsteps had long lost their original lightness.  Stopping to rest, Zhang Zhuoyang and Xue Feng fell behind again. Each of them held a branch in their hands and climbed up with difficulty using their hands and feet. After waiting for a while, they all climbed up.  "Oh, my God! I'm so tired. How much further is there?" Zhang Zhuoyang sat down on the ground and said weakly.  Among the five people, only the guide was breathless and heartless. As if nothing happened, he pointed to a few houses shaded by trees on the top of the mountain in the distance and said with a smile: "It's not far, it's just ahead." Xue Feng, who was lying on the ground, tried his best.  He straightened up, stretched his neck in the direction pointed by the guide, and looked at the row of matchbox-like houses on the top of the mountain in the distance. He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and wailed in pain: "Let me die! I really want to leave."  "I'm not moving anymore." Li Rui stood up, wiped the dust off his butt, looked sympathetically at Xue Feng, who was lying on the ground like a dead dog, and said deliberately: "I heard that there are wolves in the mountains, and they will be there when it gets dark.  Come out to look for food." "What?" Xue Feng sat up suddenly and looked at the guide with questioning eyes. "Is there really a wolf?" The young guide blinked at Li Rui.  Knowing that he actually wanted to get to the top of the mountain quickly, he chuckled and said, "There used to be a lot of wolves in this area." "Oh my god!" Xue Feng was really scared now and quickly got up from the ground.  "Xiao Xue, listen to their nonsense. Now that wolves have become protected animals, how can there be so many wolves!" Zhang Zhuoyang still didn't believe it, but after all, he still struggled to get up, and they continued the last stretch of the journey.  The two of them used up the remaining strength in their bodies to not fall behind no matter what. Following the guide, they finally reached the top of the mountain when the sun turned west and was about to approach the continuous mountains in the distance.  The small temple on the top of the mountain is called Qingyun Temple. The name sounds quite majestic, but in fact it is just a shabby stone house with five rooms surrounded by a large yard. The gate is very impressive. According to the guide, this temple is carved out of stone.  The gate already existed during the Song Dynasty.  Qingyun Temple is in tatters, with the door open, and not a single monk can be seen in the courtyard. Listening to the guide¡¯s soft introduction, there are only two monks here, an abbot and a fire-headed monk. Usually no one comes, except for the devout people at the foot of the mountain on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month.  The villagers would go up the mountain to burn incense and bring them some rice, flour, grain and oil.  They came up prepared this time. The guide had a lot of food prepared by Zhu Baoyuan in his backpack.  The slightly larger room in the middle is the main hall of Qingyun Temple. It houses Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, square ears and broad shoulders. He wears a Buddha crown high and holds a Buddha staff in his hand. He is eight feet tall.  Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is also called Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. He has profound Buddhist teachings and a broad mind. He once said: "If hell is not empty, I will never become a Buddha!".  The hall was filled with smoke and was quiet and solemn.  There was only a thin old monk meditating with his eyes closed. Li Rui looked at it secretly and saw that the old monk had a unique character and looked very much like an accomplished monk.  When they just entered the hall, the old monk opened his eyes slightly, and two rays of light flashed. Li Rui, who was walking at the front, was startled and thought to himself: Could he still be a martial arts master?  He used to like to read Jin Yong's martial arts novels, and he had the impression that monks are all masters with martial arts secrets. If this old monk's demeanor is not martial arts, then he must be profound in Buddhism, and he is definitely not an ordinary monk who is simply practicing.  Li Rui was quite superstitious in his previous life because of his business. Now that he has experienced rebirth, he has an even more mysterious feeling about this kind of thing. It comes from his heart. The old monk's cold eyes gave him a sense of awe.  Heart, hands naturally clasped together, and worship Buddha devoutly.  The three following behind are all businessmen. Since they have arrived, they also follow Li Rui and prostrate themselves on the futon, kowtow three times and burn incense. This series of rituals is done with great piety.  Seeing the old monk knocking the wooden fish slowly, Li Rui stepped forward and saluted with both palms: "Dare you ask the Master's Dharma name?" The old monk returned the salute and said, "Old monk, what are you asking about?" Although hearing this Dharma name was a bit strange, Li Rui  Rui still said modestly: "Master's Dharma practice is profound. It is a great blessing for the younger generation to meet Master today." The old monk showed a smile, raised one palm and said: "The donor is a wise person, and his heart is not dusty.  How can one enter into the worldly view? Being sincere is destiny, how does being dishonest lead to destiny? "Although Li Rui studied economics, he was influenced by his grandfather since he was a child and has been reading a lot of books and covering a wide range of topics, including Buddhism.  I know a little bit about it and see the old monk talking elegantly.? Contains a sharp edge and a calm mind, which shows his brilliance.  "What the master said is absolutely true." Although Li Rui changed his life path after his rebirth, deep down in his heart, Li Rui has always been a little confused. His future is uncertain and he is worried about gains and losses. He wanted to ask a few questions, so he asked: "What am I?"  When the old monk heard this, his expression suddenly became solemn, and he said righteously: "All troubles arise from the existence of self. If there is no self, then everything is nothing."  , so it¡¯s called self-grasping.¡± Li Rui nodded and asked, ¡°How to get rid of self-grasping?¡± It is estimated that it is rare for the old monk to meet anyone to discuss these Buddhist principles with him.  Talking about nature is very strong, and he talks eloquently: "There are three main types of self-attachment: self-seeing, self-image, and self-grasping. Self-seeing: The five aggregates of the body and mind are thought to have permanence, which is called self-seeing. It is also said that people see that there is a self.  Seeing, there is a distinction between people and me, because it is also called body seeing, and it is also called person and self seeing; it is also called the appearance of all living beings in the five aggregates.  , mistakenly thinking that "what I have" is real, it is also called the human form, and it means that all living beings are in the Five Yin Dharma.  Clinging: Also known as clinging, thinking that the so-called "I" is the master of life. Recognizing the existence of my body and clinging to it is called self-grasping. It is caused by the false combination of the five aggregates of the human body, so it is clinging to the eternal one.  The self is also called human attachment. There is self-attachment and "dharma attachment", which is the symmetry of "self-attachment".  Born without nature, like illusion, and clinging to the false view that all dharmas are real. If the attachment to dharmas is eliminated, the attachment to dharmas can be eliminated. "Amitabha!" Zhang Zhuoyang, Xue Feng and Yu Meixia were  Li Rui was attracted by the exchange with the old monk, but they all listened in confusion. They couldn't understand what the old monk meant. Everything they didn't understand seemed very profound. The three of them  Likewise, listening to the old monk talking, the expressions on each face became more pious.  Li Rui thought for a while and then continued to ask: "I can get rid of my ego, but the world is so chaotic? Master, can you teach me the Dharma?" The old monk smiled and said: "Color is empty." "Color is empty? Isn't this the master's name?  "Li Rui was stunned for a moment, but the old monk smiled slightly, closed his eyes and did not answer.  Li Rui frowned and thought for a while, then he realized that sex was empty, which meant that he was a womanizer. Did he really have to look down on women and stay away from women in order to die a good death?  Since God made me a man and gave me a dust handle, there must be a reason for it. How can I lose the happiness between men and women because of an old monk's Zen idea?  If that's the case, what's the point of being a human being?  Isn't it just fun to work hard, earn money and gain power "Li Rui, what are you thinking about?" Yu Meixia saw Li Rui standing there in a daze, and couldn't help but stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.  road.  He suddenly woke up with a start, and then realized that he was in a trance, and said quickly: "It's nothing, I was thinking about the master's Buddhist teachings." The old monk smiled slightly and said: "Amitabha, the donor does not need to work hard, just let everything take its course."  "Thank you, Master, for your teaching." Li Rui noticed a lotus tube placed next to him, thought for a moment and then said, "Master, can you ask for a lotus to show you the future?" "Donor, please." He prayed three times again piously, wishing  He acquiesced, picked up the tube of lottery tickets, closed his eyes and shook it. Hearing a snap sound, a lottery ticket fell. He picked it up and looked at it. He saw that the lottery ticket was three, one and four, and he handed it to the old monk respectfully.  The old monk took a look at the sign and nodded: "Yes." Then he interpreted the sign and said: "The sign says: I am in this mountain, and I don't know where I am in the depths of the clouds. Suddenly four or five years ago, I was picking chrysanthemums under the east fence." What does it mean?  At this time, Li Rui also heard Yun Liwu and asked the old monk for a detailed explanation.  The old monk said: "Good causes lead to good results, and bad relationships lead to bad results. Busy and busy, the donor slowly understands." Li Rui still couldn't understand, and was about to continue asking, when the old monk suddenly gathered his wisdom eyes and determined.  I watched him for a while.  Li Rui found that the old monk's eyes were filled with mist, which was profound and unpredictable, and he suddenly felt uneasy.  The old monk suddenly let out a long sigh and said: "Don't leak the secret of heaven. You will know it later. The benefactor's love is deep-rooted and his kindness is dusty. You must know that form is emptiness, emptiness is form. You must not indulge in it, so you can do it yourself." After saying this, he sang "Amitabha" and closed his eyes.  speech.  Through the exchange of Buddhist teachings just now, Li Rui knew that this old monk did have some abilities. Although some of his words were not clear yet, he vaguely felt that his destiny in this life might be in it. He would slowly understand it in the future.  He opened the handbag he carried with him and took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills from it. He didn't even count it. He estimated there were one or two thousand. He respectfully put the alms into the merit box, and then bowed deeply to the old monk Se Kong.  Turn around and walk towards the door.  Zhang Zhuoyang and others watched Li Rui ask for signatures and listened.The monks interpreted the lots, and everyone was eager to try. They also came forward and kowtowed to draw lots.  Just as Li Rui stepped out of the door, he heard the great monk behind him say: "It's so good. If the donor sincerely prays to the Buddha, good results will surely come." At this moment, he suddenly realized: It turns out that the monk asked people to pray to the Buddha for the colorful money.  , giving more is good, giving less is evil. It can be seen that form and emptiness may not be true emptiness.
