"Master, I brought you some vegetarian pancakes and desserts from Longyi Sugar Restaurant, and some Hang White Tea." Zhang Fan put the package on the table and invited the old monk to An.

"Haha, you haven't come for a long time. Are your parents good? What are you busy with recently?" On the chair beside the table, a thin old monk asked Zhang Fan with a smile.

"I'm still making a living in the antique city. My parents are pretty good and the business is OK. How are you in good health?" Zhang Fan also greeted him as usual.

"It's okay, what's wrong with you here?" the old monk asked casually.

"It's nothing, I just want to come and see you. By the way, I'll ask for some scriptures to go back." Zhang Fan sat down on the chair on the other side of the table.

The old monk nodded, raised his somewhat cloudy eyes, and looked at Zhang Fan carefully: "I remember last time you said you wanted to convert to my Buddha and be a lay Buddhist at home, right?"

"Yes, Master, you said at that time, my time has not come." Zhang Fan replied: "Why did the master bring up this matter?"

The old monk smiled and said, "Do you want to know when and when will your conversion be counted?"

"Of course, please give me advice, Master." Zhang Fan quickly stood up and asked.

The old monk waved his hand and signaled him to sit down and talk. Zhang Fan's heart was pounding, feeling that the old monk today seemed to intend to take him to convert. This was something he had been looking forward to for a long time. He quickly sat down and waited for advice.

"I'll ask you, what are the actions of lay Buddhists at home who practice at home? Do you know?"

"I said, you black dog, this is a very big bone that I bought from the supermarket, and it is so delicious! Look at how strong the meat on it is!" Aken took a bag, took out a big bone from it, and swayed in front of a black dog. "As long as you answer a few questions from the uncle, the bones in this bag are all yours."

The black dog in front of him swayed his tail and saliva flowed. He was "wow" and was circling around Akan's feet. Looking at the flesh and bones in Akan's hands, that was so anxious!

"Why don't you talk anymore? Where did you go last night's ruthlessness? Let's call you to the old man." Akan seduced the black dog with his bones. This dog was found by Akan for most of the community and behind a garage. "You can't eat if you don't talk."

The black dog was so anxious that he rushed up, trying to grab the bone from Akan. He was kicked aside by Akan and made a "whimper" threat.

"Oh, I still want to be tough? Don't toast or not eat the punishment!" Akan put away his bones, picked up a brick from the ground, and gestured. The black dog jumped back in fear, ran several steps, and shouted "Wool!" from afar.

"Are you looking for me?" A thick voice sounded behind Aken.

…………

"I heard from you that Master, and I have also seen it in the scriptures that lay Buddhists at home must observe the five precepts of "killing, stealing, adultery, lying, and wine." Zhang Fan answered honestly.

"Then how many precepts can you keep now?" the old monk asked with a smile.

Zhang Fan lowered his head and said, "I was just about to ask the teacher for advice on this matter. In the past, my disciples could barely keep these five precepts. But recently, my disciples have some changes, so the disciples who kill the precepts are difficult to keep, so I am very frightened."

The old monk nodded, but did not ask the reason, but just asked: "Have you heard the story of 'sacrificing oneself to feed the tiger'?"

"I heard that Prince Sattva saw that the eight tigers were about to starve to death, so he fed the tiger with great compassion and saved the eight tigers and sacrificed himself. This deed was passed down to future generations and was a model of great compassion in Buddhism." Zhang Fan was familiar with Buddhist scriptures and naturally knew this allusion. After saying that, he paused and asked, "Does the master want me to learn the prince Sattva, sacrifice his body to feed the tiger, to restrain the murderous intent and perform the killing precepts?"

The old monk did not answer and asked again: "Do you know that Prince Sattva sacrificed his body for the tiger because of his great compassion, but if Sattva had no body, how could he save the tiger?"

"This..." Zhang Fan was speechless.

The old monk asked: "If Sattva had no body and could not save the tiger, would he have no great compassion? If he had only body and no great compassion, would he have saved the tiger?"

Zhang Fan's eyes were stammering and his forehead was sweating.

"I'll ask you again, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva vowed that he would not become a Buddha without hell! Which is more important than the matter of this or the prince Sattva sacrificed his body to feed the tiger?" the old monk asked again.

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has given up his enlightenment and saved sentient beings, and will naturally be better than Sartva!" Zhang Fan stood up and answered.

"Kneel down!" The old monk pointed at the futon on the ground.

Zhang Fan knelt on the cushion as he said.

"Why can Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva save all sentient beings in hell?"

Zhang Fan lowered his head and thought carefully, and said loudly: "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva saves all living beings in hell with great compassion and great vows!"

"Amitabha, why do you create the Western Paradise and save all living beings?"

Zhang Fan was a little confused, but he still replied loudly: "Amitabha Buddha created the Western Paradise with great vows and saved all sentient beings!"

"What about you!" the old monk asked suddenly.

"I..." Zhang Fan's tongue was knotted again and didn't know how to answer. After a while, Zhang Fan lowered his head and asked weakly: "How can I understand, I have learned it?"

The old monk replied: "It is covered by wisdom! Don't you hear the Prajna Paramita, without a boat of wisdom, how can you get the other shore of enlightenment?" (Prajna Paramita, meaning: wisdom reaches the other shore.)

Zhang Fan was shocked and asked again: "How can I get wisdom?"

"We have wisdom through concentration! The mind is unstable. How to learn, not learn the meaning of scriptures, and not go deep into the scriptures, how can you be as smart as the sea!" The old monk picked up a transparent glass cup, got a glass of water, grabbed a pair of floating dust on the ground, sprinkled it into the water. He shook the cup, and the water became muddy. Then he pointed to the cup and said to Zhang Fan, "Look."

Zhang Fan did not dare to move a little, and knelt there and stared at the cup.

Ten minutes passed, and the water in the cup was still turbid; half an hour passed, and the dust in the cup gradually settled down, and the water gradually became clear; Zhang Fan knelt for more than an hour, staring at the water cup. The water in the cup was already clear and transparent. He knew it in his heart and said to the old monk: "When water is compared to the heart, water is calm like the heart, and water is clear as the heart. Wisdom can be produced because of concentration! Thank you for your guidance."

Zhang Fan then asked: "How can you calm your mind?"

"If you can tolerate it, you will be calm!" The old monk replied: "You have just knelt for more than an hour, but you feel soreness in your back and numbness in your feet? But you have endured it. The same is true for this cup of water. If you can't help stirring, how can it calm down?"

Zhang Fan gradually became clear in his heart, but he still asked, "So how can he endure it?"

…………

"What's the matter with me Heihu?" The voice was cautious and a little threatening. "Xiao Hei, you can leave now."

The black dog in front of him ran away with a "huh" sound.

Akan turned his head and happened to see another black dog uttering words. "Haha, I hit it off at first sight last night. Today I prepared a special gift to make friends. Please accept it with a smile. By the way, there are still some small questions, haha."

Akan smiled all over his face, like the smile that an unscrupulous uncle holding a lollipop in his hand was cheating a little kid holding a hundred-dollar bill.

"Brief? But Mr. Heihu likes bribes." The black dog named Heihu didn't realize that Akan's smile was wrong. His eyes were fixed on the bag in Akan's hand. "If you have any questions, ask. There is nothing I don't know about in this community. I, Heihu, don't know about it! I am the commander of this place!"

"Inspector? Oh?" ​​Akan was a little confused and asked, "My first question is, what is the Inspector? How did you recognize us?" After saying that, he handed over a piece of bone with flesh.

"Ahhh!" Heihu bit his bones, shook his tail, and said vaguely: "You guy, Heihu likes it! Does the patrol leader..."

…………

"Achieve enlightenment can endure!" The old monk's answer confirmed the question in Zhang Fan's mind. The master must have something to do with the world of the precepts. The old monk continued: "If you can endure, you will be calm, and wisdom will be born from concentration. Wisdom will be perfect, and enlightenment can be endured! These four natures are based on wisdom, enlightenment, and concentration. Only endurance is practiced. If you practice and practice, you cannot endure everything. If you cannot endure, your mind will be unstable and your mind will be unstable, and your wisdom will be difficult to complete. How can the ignorant achieve enlightenment!"

"If you understand a little, you can endure it a little bit. Do you understand?"

"It's hard to endure, where can I start with my disciples?"

"As long as you work hard, you can grind an iron rod into a needle!"

Zhang Fan suddenly realized in his heart, kneeling on the cushion, his mind was messy, and his ears seemed to be filled with the sound of the master's guidance, which was as thunderous as the ears! There was also a picture of the attribute interface in the ring space in front of him; there were countless props displayed in front of him one by one, and finally frozen on the black iron pestle!

After a while, Akan was shouting loudly: "What are you nervous about? So what if you say it? Who didn't spend it with your head in the scene? Kill him today and who will be killed tomorrow? Who will know?! You can't even take care of yourself, so you can still take care of others?!"

Then again, the "Kijima" battleship exploded again. Ghost fighter bombed the Japanese army, and several Japanese warships at sea sank one after another...

Green Wing fell down to save himself...

One by one, the precepts turned into a shredded star in front of their eyes...

…………

Zhang Fan did not notice. At this time, the old monk's eyes were turbid, and the light flashed, as if he could see through a person's soul! Zhang Fan didn't know that just when he was stunned, the "understanding" value of the basic attribute increased little by little, reaching 149, and he struggled to break through to 150! It just seemed that he was stuck somewhere and could not break through the obstacles!

At this moment, the old monk suddenly hit Zhang Fantian's spiritual cover with his hand and shouted: "The foolish man hasn't realized it yet!" The sound was like a huge thunder, like a lion's roar! The glass on the table burst into pieces with a "click!"

Zhang Fan was shocked suddenly, and his heart was filled with light, as if he had suddenly opened the thick curtains and saw the particularly bright sky outside the window! Another like a thunderbolt in the sky, scattering the haze all over the sky! His mind was like a revelation, and everything was in the clear!

Pushing the Jinshan Mountain and turning the jade pillar, Zhang Fanna bowed down and sweared loudly: "To realize the Buddha's path, I have made this great wish: Even if the future is thorny, I will never stop on this road of enlightenment!"

The old monk smiled gradually, he stroked Zhang Fan's head, recited the Three Refuges Mantra in his mouth, and said, "Now, Zhang Fan, a common man, has taken refuge in my Buddha with sincerity. He is willing to keep the Five Precepts, practice pure and quiet practice, develop an enlightened mind, cultivate a root of wisdom, practice at home, the Dharma name is Shifan, Namo Amitabha! Namo Amitabha! Namo Amitabha! Namo Amitabha!

At this point, Zhang Fan got his wish! When he was just happy, he suddenly felt a bright mind, and the ring on Heshi's hand was flowing! Baihui's mind, the mouth of the central mouth, and the abdomen of the Dantian. It also extended to the strange meridians, eight meridians, and seven chakras (cross chakra, eyebrow chakra, heart chakra, navel chakra, root chakra, and Brahma acupoint chakra) all over his body, and it was warm, as if the whole person was bathed in a hot spring! If Akan was present, he would definitely see Zhang Fan's whole body emitted golden light at this time, and it was like breathing, emitting colorful chakra rhythmically. It was like the dazzling Buddha light on the Buddha's desk in Zhang Fan's living room!
