#571 - You are my son, the greatest wealth in my life...
Shi Huaqing turned to look at Baoneng and said apologetically: "Brother, this child has been in a bad state recently, please forgive me."
Baoneng saw Shi Huaqing's somewhat embarrassed expression, and gently stroked the huge earlobe that hung down to his shoulder, and said with a smile:
"Go, go. Buddha's enlightenment is not something that can be achieved overnight. Junior brother, go find the nephew first. Maybe he is just touring the temple..."
"Then Senior Brother, I'll go first."
Shi Huaqing nodded in agreement.
Then he turned around and left in a hurry.
Watching Shi Huaqing leaving,
Baoneng narrowed his eyes silently again, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
With slight changes in facial features,
The originally dignified appearance of Bao Xiang disappeared,
At this time, Baoneng looks more like a cunning fox...
"Xuankong!! Xuankong!!"
Shi Huaqing was looking everywhere for
Finally, they found Chen Wuxin's trace in a remote Zen temple.
This Zen temple has bluestone paving and several ancient cypresses towering into the sky.
There is a small pond in the corner, the water surface is as calm as a mirror.
Chen Wuxin curled up on a bluestone beside the pool, his arms wrapped around his knees.
The whole person looked dazed, staring blankly at the sky reflected in the pool...
Chen Wuxin now,
Like a broken Zen bamboo, swaying and falling,
His eyes were empty and confused, like a dry well, lifeless.
That once bright face is now dull and lifeless.
Except for the beautiful face that looks like a woman,
The whole person is completely different from the smooth and tactful one before...
"Xuankong!" Shi Huaqing stepped forward quickly, his tone both accusing and concerned, "Why did you leave without permission? Uncle Baoneng is waiting to see you!"
Chen Wuxin slowly raised his head, his eyes were devoid of light, he just shook his head without saying anything...
Looking at the decadent apprentice in front of him,
Shi Huaqing was not angry. Instead, he squatted down silently, patted Chen Wuxin on the back, and said with a gentle and encouraging look:
"Disciple, Master has already found out everything. In a few days, you will be able to achieve enlightenment! Be strong and don't be so dejected every day!"
"Master, I heard everything you just said..."
Chen Wuxin was silent for a long time, and finally spoke in a low and tired voice: "Master, I don't want to achieve enlightenment this way."
"What do you mean?" Shi Huaqing frowned.
"This kind of extraordinary is like... bought."
Chen Wuxin raised his head, a gleam of struggle flashing in his eyes.
"I saw it, Master. I saw you stuffed treasures into Uncle Baoneng's pockets, and prepared countless tributes to offer to the so-called Buddha. Not only that, you will also teach everything you know at the Buddhist conference tomorrow, and make public all the profound Buddhist principles you have learned in your life... Master, this is still called the right fruit..."
Shi Huaqing's expression froze for a moment, then he relaxed: "Silly child, why doesn't it count?! Haven't you seen your uncle's Buddhaland? Extraordinary is extraordinary, how can there be such a thing as buying something or cultivating something?"
"And with your aptitude, you are an extraordinary embryo..."
"This price is too high!" Chen Wuxin suddenly became excited, his voice trembling.
"For a useless disciple like me, you left the sect, almost emptied all your savings, and even disclosed all your life's learning. Master, why? Master! I am not worthy of you doing this!!"
Chen Wuxin's eyes were red, and his hands were tightly grasping his knees.
Shi Huaqing looked at the stubborn disciple in front of him with mixed feelings.
He reached out and gently stroked Chen Wuxin's shoulder: "Xuankong, do you still remember the scene when you became my disciple?"
Chen Wuxin looked at Shi Huaqing in silence.
And Shi Huaqing continued:
"Among the thousands of disciples, you were the only one who played tricks on me, the master, and you were the only one who answered my questions the smartest..."
"Have you forgotten the gifts you gave me and the words you said to me after you became my disciple?"
Listening to Shi Huaqing's words, Chen Wuxin seemed to have thought of something, and his pupils shrank slightly.
Shi Huaqing took out two dolls from his arms.
The two dolls are one big and one small. The big one hugs the small one.
Shi Huaqing gently touched the doll:
"Give this doll to the master and tell him that the older one is me and the younger one is you. I will take good care of you now. When you are old, the older one will be you and the younger one will be me. Then you will take care of me in my old age..."
Chen Wuxin looked up at his master's aged face, tears welling up in his eyes: "Master..."
Shi Huaqing sighed softly:
"Xuankong, I have traveled to many places in my life and witnessed too many joys and sorrows. It is my greatest blessing to have a true successor on the path of cultivation. You don't have to worry about those material things, let alone the profound meaning of my Buddhist teachings. Those things are meant to be passed down. If I can help you break through the shackles, why would I hesitate?"
The water in the pond rippled slightly, reflecting the figures of the two people. One old and one young, the mentor and the disciple, they were speechless at this moment.
"Master, I'm afraid..." Chen Wuxin finally spoke out the real fear in his heart, "I'm afraid that the power I get in this way will not truly belong to me. I'm afraid that I'm not worthy of your expectations."
Upon hearing this, Shi Huaqing's eyes flashed with a complicated look, but he soon regained his composure: "Power is never obtained for nothing, Xuankong. Whether it is through your own hard work or with the help of others, as long as you have the Tao in your heart, it will eventually be yours."
He stood up and looked at the clouds in the sky:
"As for whether you are worthy or not, there is no such thing as worthy or not in this world. Your master only wants to see you walk out of the haze and find the Xuan Kong of the past again..."
Shi Huaqing looked down at Chen Wuxin, reached out and gently stroked Chen Wuxin's head, and said:
"Just keep going forward, don't be afraid, Master is here to take care of everything..."
