Chapter 571 Master, I like two women at the same time, what should I do?

Half an hour later, in the study.

"My friend, you have to go back too. We don't know when we will meet again. How do you feel about us?"

"Not bad, but it feels like we are just living off past achievements. The future development path will be a bit bumpy." Chen Xi was familiar with Ma Zhongyuan's father, so he told the truth.

"Haha, you are not polite at all. Our place is not like your place. You have seen the famous scenes in the parliament on TV..." Ma Zhongyuan's father sighed.

"It's pretty good. Many Western countries often have messy things. Many people who have never been abroad think those regions are developed countries with relatively good public security.

However, this is not the case. It all comes down to a systemic problem. Most Western countries became developed countries by colonizing or serving as subordinates. After the financial crisis, a large number of companies went bankrupt and people lost their jobs, leaving them with no money to survive. At this time, they will feel dissatisfied. In the past, the government would provide financial assistance, but now it is different. Many Western countries have no money and have been hollowed out.

The long-term high welfare benefits in developed countries and the relief funds given to the lower classes are a huge sum of money every year. All this money was once obtained from other countries.

However, a few decades ago, the world situation changed, and a large number of colonies chose to leave. This led to the loss of funding sources, and those developed countries could only rely on their old capital to survive.

Usually, most of the funds for high welfare benefits are now compensated by taxes. When every election comes, candidates will go around canvassing for votes, and the slogans they shout out are mostly to increase welfare benefits and reduce taxes.

Improving welfare benefits is to please the poor, while reducing taxes is to please the rich. When there is no money at all, the only way to resolve internal conflicts is to transform them into external conflicts..." Chen Xi said as he looked at Ma Zhongyuan's father.

Given the situation in their area, this is a no-brainer.

"You are right. Not only are Westerners eyeing our high-tech industry, they are also selling us some obsolete equipment at high prices... You should know how to change the situation in this area now..." Ma Zhongyuan's father looked at Chen Xi solemnly.

"I have remembered what you said yesterday."

“Your association has many members overseas, and their every move and thoughts will affect the relationship between countries…

Now everything in our district depends on others. For a long time, our district has to... I must go to your place as soon as possible..."

Ma Zhongyuan's father looked at the clock on the wall, and then spoke out all his thoughts in one breath.

The next day, Longshan Temple.

The temple was built nearly three hundred years ago, about the same time as Lingyun Temple, and is the most popular temple here.

"It's still early before boarding, so I'll show you the sights first. There's nothing fun here, and I've only been here before." Ma Zhongyuan got out of the car and pointed to the gate of the temple.

There are four dragons carved on the gate, with a sun placed in the center. Several giant dragons are also carved on the tops of other buildings. Even the pillars are wrapped with golden dragons, which really echoes the name of the temple.

This is indeed one of the famous temples in the area and there are still many tourists.

The man in a suit standing by looked Chen Xi up and down with a gloomy face, seeming to be very dissatisfied with his arrival.

You know, in such a crowded place, it is quite difficult to protect one person.

But due to Mr. Ma's instructions, he had to come along.

"This temple is dedicated to Guanyin. Do you want to go there to make a wish? For example... for a child?"

"Pfft~"

"Cough cough~"

Ma Zhongyuan's funny words almost made Zhao Lingshan and Chen Xi knock over the mineral water in their hands.

There are many incarnations and images of Guanyin Bodhisattva in Buddhism. In terms of the specific number, there are many different classifications, such as six Guanyins, seven Guanyins, and even thirty-three Guanyins. These different images of Guanyin represent the compassion and salvation of Guanyin Bodhisattva to sentient beings in different situations.

The Guanyin of Longshan Temple is also known as Anhai Guanyin, which refers to the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva enshrined in the temple located in Anhai area.

More than two hundred years ago, people from Sanyi jointly built Longshan Temple and respectfully invited the spirit of Guanyin Bodhisattva from Longshan Temple in Anhai Township, Fujian Province, their hometown, to be worshipped here.

Why do these people like to... treat me as a tool?
If you want to get things done, you must first show some sincerity.

Thinking back to yesterday's conversation with Mr. Ma, Chen Xi stretched helplessly.

This big boss is even more stingy than Shen Lang and has no sense of reason at all. Shen Lang knows how to give benefits first and then do things. He doesn't think that if he saves me, I will work hard for him. He really thinks I am a passionate young man.

"Now that you're here, let's pay our respects." Zhao Lingshan pulled the reluctant Chen Xi to kneel in front of a cushion.

He knew that Chen Xi didn't believe in gods and Buddhas, but women like to pray to gods and Buddhas to calm their fragile hearts. Chen Xi had no choice but to imitate her movements and kowtow.

"What did you wish for? Do you want a boy or a girl?"

"It doesn't matter, boy or girl is fine." Chen Xi didn't care much about having children or not. He went abroad when he was young and received Western education. He felt that there was no need to carry on the family line, so he didn't care about the concept of family.

"Then I'll take both. But having two will make my figure go out of shape. I don't want that!"

"..."

"I should have wished for twins just now."

"..."

Seeing Zhao Lingshan worrying about whether to have a boy or a girl, Chen Xi touched her head lovingly and pulled her up from the futon.

"Hehe, you two are really interesting. We don't have as many people here as you do. The masters in the temple usually listen to the complaints of visitors and use Buddhist teachings to resolve their knots one by one..." Ma Zhongyuan came behind the two of them and pointed at a few monks in the distance.

They were chattering away, helping several couples of men and women to answer questions.

"Everything in the world is born from the heart. What the two donors are worried about is nothing more than the word love, which can make people happy, but can also lead people astray. But please remember that fate is inevitable. There is no need to force it, and there is no need to be obsessed. Learn to let go, let your heart go with the wind, and you will naturally see another world." The young man looked puzzled, as if he still couldn't let go: "Master, I know that fate cannot be forced, but how can I resolve the unwillingness and reluctance in my heart?"

The monk smiled slightly, his eyes sparkling with wisdom. "Donor, your reluctance and unwillingness are all due to your deep obsession. Buddhism says: 'All phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows; like dew and lightning, so you should view them in this way.' Everything in the world changes in a flash, only inner peace and wisdom are eternal. Try to be compassionate and observe the suffering and happiness of yourself and others, and you will find that those things you once thought you could not let go of will eventually become a passing cloud."

Haha, it seems that everyone who comes here is someone who has broken up.

Why come to the temple if you don't want to go to the bar to get drunk?
The people here have really unique ideas.

Chen Xi found the conversation between the two a little funny, and then he turned his head to look at the other woman.

“Master, I often feel lonely, as if the whole world is against me.” The woman sobbed softly.

The monk tenderly handed over a handkerchief and whispered, "Loneliness is a necessary practice in everyone's life. It is not an enemy, but a mentor who leads us to explore inward. In loneliness, learn to talk to yourself and listen to the voice of your heart. You will find that true strength and peace come from self-acceptance and understanding. Remember, you are not alone, because all life in the universe is connected to you in different ways."

"What the hell." Chen Xi rolled his eyes as he listened to the monk's words with a local accent.

Fortunately, this is free of charge. If it were charged, it would have been defined as a pyramid scheme long ago.

While Zhao Lingshan and Ma Zhongyuan were in the restroom, Chen Xi looked at a monk not far away.

There were queues everywhere for other people, but there was only one person there.

"Master, I fall in love with two women at the same time, what should I do?" a young man asked anxiously.

"Don't ask, just choose the second one!" The monk who spoke was very young. He didn't even open his eyes and waved his hands casually. His attitude seemed extremely perfunctory. No wonder no one came to him to ask questions.

Asians generally think that monks are like doctors, and that older ones should be chosen because they are experienced and can speak profound philosophical words.

The monk in front of him was only a few years older than Chen Xi, probably thirty at most.

He closed his eyes, touched his head, and continued to chat casually with the young man.

"Why?" The young man was puzzled.

"If you liked the first one the most, why would there be a second one? Why do you come to me asking questions? Wouldn't it be better for you to make more money with your time?" The monk seemed a little impatient, as if there were needles on his butt.

The other masters were sitting upright, but he was like a monkey.

"Master, but I can't let go of some people and some things. What should I do?"

"Take these incense sticks and light them on the stove. Don't let go until I tell you to stop." The monk took out a handful of incense from under his butt and handed it to the other party, then pointed to the stove where incense was burning not far away.

Although the young man felt puzzled, he still took the incense and ran away.

There were a few candles placed by the stove to light incense, but for some reason they went out. Tourists who come here simply put the incense directly into the flame inside the stove and light it, which is actually more convenient.

Because the flame in the furnace was relatively large, it felt unusually hot when approached, and there were several unburned incense sticks inside. It didn't take long for the young man to be unable to open his eyes due to the scorching flames and smoke. After holding on for a few minutes, the young man's hand was suddenly burned by the flames, and he instinctively threw away the incense in his hand.

"do you understand?"

"Master, what do you understand?"

The monk asked after the young man came back.

"When it hurts, you can let it go."

"Pfft~" Chen Xi, who was standing aside, covered his mouth and laughed after hearing this.

"Understood, Master."

"Hey~ don't leave!"

The young man bowed to the monk, thanked him and was about to leave, but was stopped by him.

"Master, is there anything else?"

"You just threw away the incense. This is very disrespectful to Guanyin."

"I didn't mean it." The young man said with a red face.

"I think you have a connection with Buddha, so let's give you this number." The monk grabbed the young man's arm with one hand and gestured with the other.

"I...I didn't bring any cash with me when I went out today."

"It's okay. I accept credit cards here. Come with me to the side later..." the monk said with a smile.

"...Master, please let me go." The young man tried to break free from the other party's restraints, but the monk's hands were too strong and he couldn't break free for a long time.

In a panic, the young man slapped the other person on the forehead.

The monk then let go in pain.

"When it hurts, let it go. Master, you are right."

The young man bowed to the monk again and then ran away.

The monk saw this, covered his forehead with his hands, smiled evilly and said: "You understand the truth quite quickly..." (End of this chapter)
