Chapter 475 Everything is meaningless, living under the crotch is interesting
Jin Guangxian stopped where he was, unable to take the next step.
"Is it worth it to lose the chance of enlightenment forever just for the sake of momentary pleasure?"
As if asking himself, or as if asking Wen Rui, Jin Guangxian turned around and said in confusion: "I have been a Buddhist for five hundred years. I have spent countless days and nights studying scriptures beside the Bodhisattva. I have memorized many scriptures by heart..."
"I just feel a little unwilling. I have never experienced the secular world in my life, but I want to see through it..."
Jin Guangxian sighed and said slowly: "My ideal plan is to meet an ordinary woman, fall in love with her at first sight, and be with her for a hundred years, completing an ordinary marriage. After I understand the love of the world, I will return to my original heart and never be tainted by worldly affairs."
He raised his head and said loudly and excitedly: "I only have this little obsession. Compared with the eternal peace and silence, decades of indulgence in the world are nothing. Why are the gods and Buddhas forcing me?"
"Life is not satisfactory for eight out of ten times. Western religions emphasize letting go of obsessions, which forces you to control your desires. The more you want something, the less likely you are to get it."
Wen Rui said expressionlessly, "So the more you struggle, the more you toss and turn, the more you will end up with nothing. I'm leaving this out, believe it or not, I'll be more generous and completely ignore you, you can continue to stay in the mortal world and play around in the human world, toss and turn for hundreds or thousands of years, but your obsession will never be satisfied."
"When the time comes, Guanyin Bodhisattva will come out and beat you up first, calling it a 'wake-up call', and then act like 'I told you so' to make you reflect."
"At that time, it was as if you were being pressed down by a mountain for hundreds of years. No matter what your original intention was, your self-awareness had been worn away by a blunt knife. You would believe whatever was done to your brainwashing."
Wen Rui seemed to be a prophet, counting on his fingers, and said, "I hypnotized myself, persuaded myself, and reconciled myself. All of a sudden, I had a great enlightenment and realized the inexplicable Buddhist principles. I transformed myself into a good monk who listened to the Buddha and followed the Bodhisattva."
Jin Guangxian sat down dejectedly on the ground, his head drooping, and muttered: "Buddha and Bodhisattva, the scriptures say that the wisdom and character of Buddha and Bodhisattva are incomparable. We, the beasts of karma, are ignorant and stupid and cannot understand their realm. We are wrong, and they are always right..."
"It's all talk and no action. The scriptures also record such immeasurable numbers as numerous as the grains of sand in the Ganges River, as many as the number of Asankhyeyas, and inexpressible numbers, which makes them seem like they are very good at counting. In fact, even the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the sky could have missed a number when they counted to eighty-one. Their actual math application ability is at the level of a first-grade primary school student."
Wen Rui said with disdain: "If Buddha is the smartest person in the universe, he must know that being kind to others is what those fools do, and he does this to make up for their stupidity. The peacock can't eat Buddha, not because Buddha is kind, but because Buddha will rip open his stomach when he gets angry."
“You have some bad thoughts, but those bad thoughts are who you are: the realization that you’re aging, the realization that everyone is mortal, the realization that the universe is so big that nothing makes sense.”
Wen Rui said in a deep tone, "When you know that nothing matters, the whole universe will be yours. You can choose to convince yourself to sit peacefully and happily until the end of the universe, or you can bloom like a brilliant firework in an instant, but never let others tell you what to do, and be stupid enough to follow others' fatherly instructions and really do that for the rest of your life."
This piece of poisonous chicken soup for the soul, which has been plagiarized countless times, made Jin Guangxian fall into a mysterious state of "enlightenment". There seemed to be some starlight in his desperate and dull eyes.
Not only him, but Yuan Hong, the Green Bull Demon, the Gold and Silver Boys, Princess Longji, Fairy Jiangyun and Fairy Yueying all listened with great interest. Each of them comprehended different mysteries from it, which opened the door to a new world for them.
"I got it!"
Jin Guangxian nodded heavily and bowed deeply to Wen Rui: "Emperor Wen, I am willing to be an undercover agent, not because you force me to do it, but because I want to do it! The secular world is not my obsession, seeking Buddha's enlightenment is! At worst, I will die and enter the cycle of reincarnation, and forever be a fool rolling in the world, which is more interesting than sitting in the void until the end of the universe!" "It's great that you think so."
Wen Rui patted his shoulder with satisfaction: "When you are confused, don't think too much. Living under the crotch is the ultimate answer. Just let go and do it. I will cover you and make sure you won't go to hell. What are you afraid of?"
To trick a glorious Bodhisattva mount into readily accepting the condition that he would not go to hell does not show that Wen Rui is a good talker or has profound principles.
Perhaps, just because as an independent individual, no matter how noble and great a person is, it is better to have the power to freely choose your own destiny.
Otherwise, if those evil beasts had a little self-respect, being ridden would not be much more comfortable than going to hell.
As soon as the words came out, Jin Guangxian became much more cheerful, as if he had just gotten rid of a heavy shackle. He looked a little sunny and cheerful. He bowed to Wen Rui and said, "Emperor, there is no time to lose. I will set off now. I will first go to Xiaoxitian to find Huangmei, and then go to Mingwangding of the Great Snow Mountain to look for Mingwang. Please wait for good news."
After saying that, he walked out of the cave in a hurry.
"Don't worry." Wen Rui stopped him, "We are also a formal organization outside the Heavenly Court, so we naturally need financial support and logistical support for our operations."
With a wave of his hand, dozens of treasure chests filled with gold bricks, corals, gems, magic herbs, magic wine, and magic fruits were taken out from the secret realm he carried with him.
"What useful information can you get from someone with nothing?"
Wen Rui pointed at the piles of treasures and said, "The Western religion attaches great importance to these material possessions from top to bottom. The Buddha even publicly auctioned off the Buddhist scriptures and collected appearance fees. The people below followed suit and became even more extreme. As long as the benefits were enough, they would dare to sell the Buddha."
These treasures were all obtained by Wen Rui through corruption in the Heavenly Palace over the past few years. Of course, they were only the tip of the iceberg of his case value.
Now that he has publicly presented the funds for the operation, he can also settle the account, so as to avoid being exposed in the future and having to excuse himself.
Moreover, money makes things easier, and this is a universal truth.
This is especially true for Western religions. There are Western disciples who are not greedy for money, but they are not many.
Guanyin Bodhisattva appointed two financial commissioners, Shancai Tongzi and Shancai Longnu, and her most loyal believer, Elder Jinchi, was a super greedy person, which is evident.
After giving the operation funds, Wen Rui ordered Yuan Hong, who was the best at transformation, "Brother Yuan, thank you for your hard work. You transform into Jin Guangxian's attendant demon and accompany him to gather information. If his whereabouts are exposed and he encounters an accident, you must ensure that he escapes."
Jin Guangxian was deeply moved, his eyes became more eager, and he said, "As expected, we can't just listen to what people say, but also see what they do. The Emperor is a practical god. He will not coax me into taking risks with a few lies, nor will he use me to get rid of me. The Emperor treats me sincerely, and I will go all out!"
