Chapter 67: Refining reading glasses with the true fire of Samadhi!

Without pop-ups, thousands of book fans were online at the same time. After Li Gang gave the order, the servants outside agreed and began to look for transparent crystals.

"I can't tell you, you can actually refine magic weapons at such a mysterious thing." Li Gang squinted his eyes in a good mood, with a look of emotion, "I had a good relationship with Master Sengcan back then, but I think that although Master Sengcan was profound in Buddhism, he seemed to be unable to refine magic weapons."

"The cultivation of Buddhism lies in Taoism and art." Wukong immediately resumed the conversation, "Taoism is the state of Buddhism, the art of magic power and magic power. My Zen lineage has always only been seeking to understand the mind and see the nature, not magic power and power..."

"Since that's the case, why are you different again?"

"The cultivation of Buddhism is the foundation, and the supernatural powers are the end. If you can understand the mind and see the nature, then supernatural powers will not come naturally. If you cannot, no matter how hard you practice, you will not be able to make any progress." Wukong clasped his hands together, "Like Master Sengcan, like my master's faith, they are not without supernatural powers, but they have never had the idea of ​​whether they have supernatural powers."

"What you mean is that Monk Sengcan and Monk Daoxin actually have supernatural powers, but they never use them, right?"

"You can't say that." Wukong clasped his hands together, "If you take the Dharma appearance, you will be attached to me, people, sentient beings, and those who live long. If you take the Dharma appearance, you will be attached to me, people, sentient beings, and those who live long, you will not be attached to me, people, sentient beings, and those who live long, so you should not be followed by the Dharma, and you should not be followed by the Dharma. Therefore, the World Honored One once said that the Dharma should be abandoned, let alone the Dharma."

"So that..." This large section of Buddhist scripture obviously did not make Old Master Li dizzy. He twisted his beard and pondered for a while, and said slowly, "Have you taken the wrong path in this way now?"

"Not bad!" Wukong replied calmly, "Although I was lucky enough to be enlightened by Master Daoxin, I realized that I had invisible supernatural powers in my previous life, but in terms of understanding the mind and nature, I am indeed far from that of Master and Sengcan. Therefore, Master and Sengcan not only understand the principle of being unable to form or unlawful form, but also being able to act in a body, but I can't do it."

"It's easy to know, it's hard to do!" Li Gang nodded with emotion.

"That's true!" Wukong nodded.

"Since you know that you should seek the Tao rather than the Dharma, why do you still use this supernatural power?" Li Gang asked again.

"My supernatural powers do not come from their own. If I deliberately do not use them, it means that I have already been attached to the appearance in my heart." Wukong answered calmly, "All dharmas are illegal, and all dharmas are non-forms. Therefore, I do not deliberately use supernatural powers, nor do I deliberately do not use supernatural powers. I use them when I should use them, and do not use them when I should not use them. That's all!"

"Do you mean that all sages are different by the law of inaction?" Li Gang was obviously very interested in Buddhism, and he also asked in a hurry with the words from the Diamond Sutra.

"Yes, all appearances are false. If you see all appearances that are not appearances, you will see the Tathagata." Wukong also answered in the words of the Diamond Sutra.

The Diamond Sutra is one of the most famous Buddhist scriptures and the most important classic in Mahayana Buddhism. There are several translations in history, and the most famous ones are the translations of Kumarajiva and Master Xuanzang of the Tang monk. In the early Tang Dynasty, only the one translated by Kumarajiva is currently circulating, and the name is the Diamond Prajna Paramita Sutra.

When Tang Monk later translated it, he added a few words to the name here, which was called the Vajra Paramita Sutra.

This Master Kumarajiva is not only the most famous translator in Buddhism, but also the kind of person with supernatural powers. Before his death, he said that the scriptures I translated were absolutely correct. If there were any, my tongue would rot. If there were no, even if I burned me to ashes, my tongue would be intact.

Sure enough, after his death, everything was burned to ashes, but his tongue was left. Well, off-topic, this intact tongue seems to be still in Kumarajiva Temple in Wuwei, Gansu.

Although Kumarajiva is not from Zen, if you can barely count it, he should be the ancestor of Chengshi Sect. Of course, this ancestor was said by the monks of Chengshi Sect themselves, and it is hard to say what Kumarajiva himself has to say. However, the Diamond Sutra translated by Kumarajiva is a very important classic in Zen.

It is said that the most intelligent monk in the entire Zen Buddhism, the later Sixth Patriarch Huineng, was immediately enlightened after listening to a few scriptures, and then went straight to Huangmei to find Monk Hongren, and what he listened to was the Diamond Sutra.

Of course, when Wukong talked about the Diamond Sutra when he was chatting with Li Gang, it was not because Wukong could not find other ways to fool him, but because old man Li Gang loved the Diamond Sutra the most in his life. It is said that when he was young, he once pricked his tongue himself and used the blood on his tongue as ink to copy a Diamond Sutra.

Wukong talked to him about the Diamond Sutra now, just to what he liked. And he did this very effectively. Mr. Li's conversation suddenly increased, and the topic quickly shifted from supernatural powers to Prajna.

Prajna means wisdom, but it is not the same as the so-called intelligence. Instead, it belongs to the kind of wisdom that can enable you to attain enlightenment and enlightenment. It requires you to devote yourself to verification and obtain the wisdom of Anuttara Samyaksambodhi. In layman's terms, Prajna means great wisdom, not small wisdom.

Of course, when it comes to Prajna, not to mention the Tang Dynasty, no matter when, there were very few monks who could have such wisdom. For big names like Li Gang, it was even more impossible to verify them, so although he could also be considered a Buddhist, the Buddhist scriptures were actually similar to those of the famous scholars in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and they were just topics of conversation.

Of course, Wukong is almost the same as him now, so after the two of them talked about this, they were quite inconsistent. Li Gang was surprised to find that although Wukong looked like a young monk in his teens, he was very knowledgeable when talking about these things, and he could always quote widely, and even the scriptures of Laozi and Zhuangzi and even Confucianism could be introduced for verification.

This is of course. You should know that when Wukong read these scriptures in his previous life, he read a lot of so-called Buddhist works. Not to mention Laozi and Zhuangzi, some of them can even introduce them to you with serious consequences, and it seems that they have some truths.

If the person who was chatting with Wukong was a monk Daoxin, I'm afraid the ruler would have been smashed in the past half day!

Nonsense, no idea!

"So, whether it is the reality, the realm, the text, or the convenient and the relatives, it is all the Vajra Prajna." Wukong said endlessly, "Only obtain one's own mind, and there is no difference between Buddha. Opening Buddha's knowledge and views is the mountain gate, and opening the knowledge and views of sentient beings is the mortal world."

"So last year, I wrote a verse." Wukong clasped his hands together, with a compassionate look on his face, "Don't ask for Buddha in Lingshan, Lingshan is only in your heart. Everyone has a Lingshan Tower, so that they can practice it in Lingshan Tower."

"It's OK!" Li Gang clapped his palms, "You are indeed a person with a great Buddha..."

Just as Wukong and Li Gang were in full swing, they suddenly heard a few knocks on the door, and then they heard the servant just now say, "Report to Mr. Wen Ji..."

Li Gang was interrupted by someone and said unhappily. "What's the matter?"

"Master, I have searched all the houses, but I have not found any colorless crystals. The lady asked me to ask you if the colored crystals are OK?" The servant answered respectfully.

"This..." Li Gang turned to look at Wukong.

"A crystal with color will consume a little more of the magic power of the monk, but since there is no one, that's all." Wukong smiled slightly, "Take the crystal and let me take a look first!"

"Did you hear it?" Li Gang said to the servant outside, "Go and bring the crystal!"

After a while, the servant came in with a large plate. There was a blue crystal pillow in the middle of the plate. There were some decorations near the crystal pillow, and even a string of Buddhist beads. People in the Tang Dynasty were so luxurious! Wukong looked at the pillow carved with a circle of floral patterns, and bursts of emotion.

This crystal pillow is at least A-level. If it were placed 1,500 years later, such a large piece of natural crystal would be a sky-high price. But now it is used to make a pillow, and it looks like this, it is still the kind of pillow used. It is used as a daily product. This is a noble person!

However, Goku did not choose this pillow. It was not that he didn't want to use it, but that this pillow was a bit too big in his opinion.

"Those are the ones!" Wukong picked a few decorations from it, calculated that the size was almost the same, and nodded, "Take the rest back!"

"So when are you planning to start refining magic weapons?" Li Gang touched his beard, "I wonder if I have this honor to take a look?"

"If Wen Jigong wants to see it, it's okay." Wukong smiled slightly, "After all, this magic weapon will still be used by Wen Jigong in the future. However, except Wen Jigong, the rest should not be put in. If the breath is mixed, it will not be beneficial to the formation of the magic weapon."

"Okay!" Li Gang waved his hand straightforwardly at the servant holding the plate, "Go outside the door and wait, no one is allowed to put it in."

After the servant went out, Wukong began to warn Li Gang with a serious look on his face, "Mr. Wen Ji, when I concentrate on refining weapons, I may not have any extra strength. So Mr. Wen Ji, please remember that you should not get close to me within three steps, otherwise, it will be dangerous for both of us."

"Okay!" Li Gang nodded, "You can't get within three steps, right? I remember."

I found a spacious place in the corner of Li Gang's study. Wukong sat down cross-legged, and then said to Mr. Li, "Mr. Wen Ji, remember, don't get close to me if nothing happened."

After Li Gang nodded and agreed, Wukong stretched out a hand and snapped his fingers. Then Li Gang saw a vague view of Wukong's hand clenching his fists suddenly appearing, as if it was a fire as big as a candle.

The appearance of the flame immediately scared Li Gang. Then he found that Wukong was holding the fragmented crystal jewelry he had picked with his other hand, and pressed the crystal jewelry on the flame with his hand. Then he saw his hands turning in a posture that he didn't understand very well, but felt very mysterious.

After about a minute of turning, Wukong separated his hands. At this time, Li Gang was surprised to find that the fragmentary accessories in Wukong's palm had disappeared. At this time, what was on Wukong's hand was like a colorful crystal ball. Some decorative bands and flowing spikes could be seen on the crystal ball here.

"It seems like I'm a little anxious." Looking at Li Gang's surprised expression, Wukong showed an embarrassed smile, "I should take down all these things first and then refine them together with Samadhi True Fire."

Then, Goku snapped his fingers again, then roasted the crystal balls with the small troubling of flames that appeared, and then wiped them along the crystal balls with his hands, and the decorative and flowing ears fell off. Then Goku threw these things at the side.

"Wukong, could it be that this crystal ball was formed by the decorations you just refined together?" Li Gang rubbed his eyes hard, looking disbelief.

You know, although Li Gang's eyes were a little blurry, he could see clearly just now that Wukong did put things like adornment, clothing, and hooks together, and then rubbed them like this, and it turned into such a crystal ball.

Crystal! This is crystal! Not cement! It's actually just kneading together like this?

"That's true!" As he said that, Wukong handed over the crystal ball in his hand to Li Gang, "If Mr. Wen Ji doesn't believe it, you can take a look at it yourself."

"Didn't you say that you can't walk within three steps?" Although Li Gang wanted to see it, he hesitated for a moment.

"That's when I use the Samadhi True Fire, because if my true fire leaks out a little, it will be fatal." Wukong said with a smile, "But now I have already collected my magical powers, so it's okay to get close."

Li Gang walked over tremblingly, took the crystal ball from Wukong's hand, came to his eyes and looked carefully.

"Mr. Wen Ji, look!" Wukong took the opportunity to reach out to a place in the crystal ball. "Because time is rushed, it has not been time to refine it all, and the pattern of the dragon huang can be seen here."

Li Gang did see a little pattern, but to be honest, he didn't remember whether there was any pattern on the dragon vernacular in his own house. It was not a valuable thing, and he wouldn't play with it all day long.

But I don’t know such a shameful thing about my own things. Do you think Li Wenji, who is famous all over the world, would say it in front of Wukong, a teenage guy?

"Yeah," Mr. Li leaned closer and looked around for a long time, "That's right, that's right!"

"Okay, now I will use the power of Samadhi True Fire to refine all the impurities in this crystal, making him as clear as water, transparent and flawless." Wukong took the crystal ball from Li Gang's hand, and then said to Mr. Li, "Mr. Wen Ji, please step back three steps away."

After Li Gang stepped back, Wukong snapped his fingers again to summon Samadhi True Fire, and then put the colorful crystal ball on it, just like before, and began to turn around in a very mysterious posture.

This time the incident took place. Wukong turned like this for more than half an hour. Just when Mr. Li was a little unable to hold on, he finally stopped and opened his hands. A completely transparent, round crystal ball appeared in Wukong's palm.

Then, Li Gangmu looked at Wukong with two fingers raised, then waved a few times in the air, drew a few strokes at the crystal ball, and then walked over with the crystal ball. After a relaxed stroke on the table, the crystal ball suddenly turned into crystal pieces one by one and placed on the table.

"Mr. Wen Ji, please bring it a little." Wukong stood in front of the old man, "Let me take a look at how big the lenses are suitable for Mr. Wen Ji."

As he said that, Wukong picked up the crystal chips on the table one by one, and then made serious gestures in front of the old man's eyes, "This piece is a bit big, this piece is a little small, and the size of this piece is just right. Do you think it's, Wen Jigong?"

Li Gang felt a little dizzy and nodded.

Then I saw Wukong's sleeves brushing across the table, and the remaining unused crystals disappeared without a trace, leaving only two pieces. Then I saw Wukong pick up one piece and put it in the palm of his palm, folded his hands and rotated it for a while, and then took out the lenses.

"Come on, Wen Jigong, try to look at this crystal mirror."

"How to try this?" Li Gang took the lens in confusion and asked again.

"Like this." Goku picked up another lens from the table and placed it in front of his eyes. "Close one eye and see through the crystal mirror."

Li Gang picked up the lens skeptically and placed it in front of his eyes. Then he heard him exclaiming.

"Is it clearer?" Wukong put down the lens in his hand.

"That's right!" Li Gang nodded excitedly, "It's indeed much clearer."

"Well, give me the lens first!" Wukong spread his hands, "This kind of magic weapon needs to be tailored, so we need to continue experimenting." Li Gang looked around reluctantly and then put the lens on Wukong's hand. Wukong then placed the lens again, folded his hands and rotated it for a while, and took it out again, "Look at it again this time?"

After three or four experiments, I finally decided to set up a lens that looked the clearest. Then Wukong picked up the remaining lenses on the table and did the same thing, and the lenses of the two crystal mirrors were done.

"Mr. Wen Ji, you can find someone to make a pair of frames for these two lenses, inlaid the lenses, and then wear them on the bridge of the nose when they are to be used." After the lenses were finished, Wukong took the pen and ink from the side, drew a pair of glasses on the bamboo paper, and then explained the usage to the old man in detail.

"Originally, I should have helped Wen Jigong finish everything, but because the loss was too heavy when refining the colorless crystal, I am really unable to do it now."

"It's okay, it's okay!" Li Gang excitedly looked around with two glasses, "You can help me refine the two lenses, I'm already full of affection. The remaining frames are as you said, finding a gold and silver craftsman is enough, and you don't have to waste your mana anymore."

At this moment, I suddenly heard a knock on the door again.

Mr. Li Gang was really angry this time, and his face darkened, "Didn't I say not to disturb me?"

"Master, it's not that we want to disturb you!" The voice outside was a little panicked, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is coming to the mansion."
