Chapter 977 (1/2)
Anyang didn't want to drink the remaining half pot of wine. He got up and settled his account, then went out.
Although the information from Duan Xiaokou is detailed, it's not comprehensive enough. There's no proof. It's hard to distinguish what's wrong with it. So he has to prove it in many ways!
Just out of the tavern less than 100 meters, he happened to meet Xuanzang walking on the street in a face of loss.
Xuanzang himself didn't pay attention to appearance. He was dressed in rags and unkempt. At this time, he had no vision and walked on the street like a lost soul step by step, becoming more and more like a beggar.
Suddenly, he also saw Anyang.
The two men looked at each other and stopped.
Anyang was just a little stunned, and soon returned to his mind. He walked forward with a smile and said, ”master Xuanzang, is he here now?”
Xuanzang was stunned for a long time, but at last he had some spirit in his eyes. First, he put his hands together and said, ”Xuanzang has not shaved or achieved anything in Buddhism. He is still a student and cannot afford the title of master.”
After a pause, he continued to whisper, ”it's the gentleman and the young lady who are walking too fast. According to normal people's feet, it's an hour and a half from the fishing village to the town.”
Anyang smiled and didn't get involved in this problem. He also folded his hands and said: ”I have something to deal with. Master Xuanzang, if you have something to deal with, please go to work. Let's leave now. Green mountain will not change the green water, and we will see each other if we have a chance!”
Xuanzang nodded in silence, turning aside to open the way.
But in fact, the road is very wide. It doesn't matter if he doesn't let it go at all. Another ten Anyang can go there with shoulders on their shoulders.
Anyang also smiled and nodded to him, passing him by and walking towards the bustling crowd.
Xuanzang looked at his back in silence. He was in a low mood and didn't know what he was thinking.
Suddenly, he reached out and stopped Anyang.
”Wait a minute!”
”Well?” Anyang turned around, 10 meters away from Xuanzang, and smiled, ”what's Xuanzang's advice?”
”May I have your name, sir?”
”My name is an.”
”Nice to meet you, Mr. an.” Xuanzang nodded his head and stopped talking. He took back his eyes. ”My family name is Chen, and my legal name is Xuanzang.”
”I know.”
”Well.” Xuanzang nodded again.
Anyang smiled, did not speak, turned away.
As he expected, Xuanzang, who was just about to stop talking, stopped him again and said, ”Mr. an!”
Anyang looks back and looks at him lightly.
Xuanzang made up his mind, walked towards him, stopped in front of him, looked at him, opened his mouth slightly, but didn't know what to say.
So they looked at each other and were silent.
Anyang's face is not handsome, but its lines are rigid and its temperament is calm. Xuanzang's facial features are also clear and beautiful, which are attractive.
A middle-aged woman passed by, glanced at them, showed a look of disgust and accelerated her pace of leaving.
A few young women saw this and pointed, covering their mouths and whispering something, and all of a sudden they gave out a laugh like silver Ling. It's like the sound of a row of wishing cards hanging when the east wind just blows under the eaves of the wishing building.
Seeing Xuanzang's head bowed, Anyang didn't look at himself at all. His inquiry, doubts and even indifferent eyes were useless, so he had no choice but to open his mouth: ”master Xuanzang seems to have something on his mind. He has been thinking about it all the way and has been holding it all the way. What do you want to say to me or ask me?”
Xuanzang was silent for a moment and finally said, ”is what the lady said today true? You've been in the fishing village for a long time, but you can't help yourself? ”
Anyang smiled and asked, ”what makes you ask such questions? We didn't know each other before. Miss Duan has made the facts clear, and I think you still want to defend me... ”
”When I was about to leave the fishing village, I met a four or five-year-old girl licking sugar. She said you were not a bad person, but also her friend.” Xuanzang then raised his head and stared at him with burning eyes. ”Mr. an is very skilled. If I don't guess wrong, Luo Er was saved by you.”
Thinking of the little girl, the smile on Anyang's face was gradually put away. He said lightly, ”what do you want to say?”
”Mr. an is not a cold-blooded man, nor is he stubborn about the circle of heaven as Mr. an said. Why not save the rest of us?” Xuanzang stared at him and asked.
”Help!” Anyang despised a smile, ”Buddhism teaches you to save the world and help people, but it doesn't teach you to save when you see people. If everyone saves, why don't the mage rob the Dharma field?”? There are people who want to lose their heads every day! How pitiful... ”
”The government has its own decision!”
”The master knows that Buddhism cannot be superior to the secular law, so he should know that everything has right and wrong, even the stubborn savior of the master has right and wrong. If he saves the person who should not be saved, he will kill more people!” Anyang said, ”who killed a good man alive and threw him into the river? Who can be killed by them because the fishing village is so far away and the people are not punished by law? Is it nothing? ””Can Buddhism change the law of killing for life?”
”But they are also a group of innocent people. They just killed the gentleman by mistake...”
”For them, it's a wrong killing. For the water demon's past life, it's that he did good deeds and was killed by a group of people. Then he was killed by fish and insects in the river of throwing corpses. There was no whole body! Is he willing? ”
”But he's dead. He can't come back to life!”
”But he can avenge, he can be peaceful, he can reincarnate, he can breathe into samsara. Moreover, in any case, those villagers should be punished. It's not that the master said a few words, or that the dead have passed away, so they can escape from the past as a matter of course! It's just a little more punishment for them! ”
Anyang looked into Xuanzang '
Xuanzang was stunned at the spot. He was not deep in practice now. He was speechless with only two sentences.
”You can't do good deeds blindly or only with your own heart. Otherwise, in the end, you will have a clear mind, but the world will be disturbed and confused by you! You are a disciple of Mahayana Buddhism, even more so. ” Anyang calmly preached to Xuanzang, ”those of you who fail to practice Buddhism love to spread mercy and save people everywhere, knowing that they don't know why and what they are doing!”
