Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

Chapter 295: Become a Buddha with 1 Thought

But the monk didn't seem to notice her distraction. His eyes quickly turned elsewhere and his expression remained normal.

His eyes are very beautiful.

He glanced around casually and found that his eyes were clearly lifeless, but it looked as if he was feeling compassion for all living beings.

He just sat down cross-legged and started to strike the wooden fish.

The whole place fell silent instantly, and no one spoke again.

The monks surrounding them also rang the bells at the same time, then closed their eyes and began to chant.

A buzzing sound came from all directions, and Shen Zhishu couldn't help but get goose bumps all over his body.

It felt like every pore on my body was being targeted, as if a needle as thin as a pore was aimed at it and was about to penetrate into it.

Covet.

Shen Zhishu didn't know what to do.

The buzzing sound made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

That’s it, what’s so good about it?

She looked around and found that everyone had closed their eyes, holding incense tightly in their hands, with a pious look on their faces, and seemed to be muttering something.

Even the Yue Concubine is like this.

Is there any ceremony for this?

She was a little confused.

But as the chanting became louder, she felt more and more uncomfortable. She felt dizzy and wanted to just get up and leave.

It was really a torture for her to listen to the monks chanting.

When she stood up to leave, a young child suddenly appeared in front of her and tugged at her sleeve.

Then he handed her a stick of lit incense.

The smoke was like a fuse, guiding her to look up at the sky, but before she could see clearly, it dissipated.

She held the incense.

In an instant, the feeling of dizziness and nausea dissipated a lot. This fragrance was like medicine, and even better than medicine.

Shen Zhishu was curious, what was this incense made of?

Then the child was seen walking towards the holy monk Dao Ran, holding an incense burner, and standing quietly beside the holy monk.

When he noticed her gaze, he smiled slightly.

I’m afraid there’s something wrong with this incense.

Shen Zhishu lowered his head and sniffed gently.

Shiso had mixed many spices for her, so she knew a thing or two about it. The smell of this fragrance was somewhat similar to that of the one that helps with sleeping.

It should have a calming effect.

However, the purpose of burning incense is to seek peace of mind, so it seems reasonable to add some soothing spices.

At least it would be relaxing to listen to him chanting now, right?

Shen Zhishu sat there expressionlessly, staring at the incense in his hand in a trance.

When the sound finally disappeared, it was actually an hour later.

The sound of the wooden fish stopped abruptly, and she suddenly seemed to wake up and subconsciously looked at Dao Ran.

His clear eyes looked over again, but only flashed by.

In fact, he looked at everyone present, and in his eyes, Shen Zhishu was just another "living being".

"When I, the Buddha, first came to the world in the form of a straw dog, the first thing I did was, guess what?"

Then he spoke.

Buddha is a straw dog?

Shen Zhishu frowned. Is this holy monk talking nonsense?

But who knows that everyone's ideas are even more exciting.

Many people stood up and answered.

Some people say that Buddha came into the world to save all living beings. Even as an animal, he would definitely save and help people everywhere.

Some people also say that even Buddha cannot change his nature. Since he is a straw dog, he must eat bones.

Some kind-hearted people even said frankly that maybe the straw dog came into the world during a famine, and it couldn't bear to see people starve, so it cut its meat to feed them.

Because Buddha is the most compassionate and always sacrifices himself for others.

People have different opinions.

People even split into several groups because of their opinions and started arguing.

Xiaodie and Bitao both joined in the argument.

Shen Zhishu looked at what looked like a large tea party and couldn't help but smack his lips in amazement. This holy monk was truly capable.

"Which conjecture do you think is more reasonable?"

Concubine Yue suddenly asked her, looking very curious.

"I think that this heroic act of Buddha cutting off his flesh to feed people is in line with the Buddha's nature..."

Then, without waiting for her to speak, he expressed his thoughts first.

"My thoughts are totally different from yours."

"The Buddha came into the world with a compassionate heart, human memories, and human thoughts, but in a dog body, unable to speak human language. Who knows what he will encounter in the human world? Maybe everything is over before it even begins, or maybe... he has found his own kind, and is forced to become an enemy of humans with the mission of protecting his own kind. It's hard to say."

Shen Zhishu said calmly.

We're all just guessing anyway, so what if it's nonsense?

"How can they be enemies of humans?"

But Concubine Yue listened and looked at her with curiosity.

It's nonsense, how can I find out the reason?

"Aren't there dog meat restaurants in Kyoto? They are livestock when they enter the world. Who knows what it will be like when they first meet humans?"

"You mean, the Buddha was killed right after he came into the world?"

Concubine Yue exclaimed.

Perhaps because the voices were a little too loud, the heated discussion came to an abrupt end.

So many people heard what the concubine said.

All those eyes were cast on Shen Zhishu.

"I wonder why the virtuous concubine said this?"

Apparently, Saint Monk Dao Ran also heard it, and looked at her with some curiosity.

I'm just talking nonsense.

Shen Zhishu was helpless. Judging from the current situation, it was clear that she was expected to give a reasonable explanation.

"I am just guessing. This is just one of the possibilities."

She thought as she spoke, because it always had to sound reasonable.

So before she knew it, she was telling a story.

In the years of famine, the Buddha came into the world and saw the victims everywhere, and he had the idea of ​​saving them.

But sacrificing one's own flesh and blood could only solve the immediate problem, it could not save people, so it thought of a more long-term solution.

It is to use the dog's agility to find water and food for humans in the mountains and forests.

When it found the target and couldn't wait to inform the victims, it forgot that it couldn't speak and could only call out to humans instinctively.

No one could understand what it said, but when the victims who had been hungry for many days saw it, their eyes glowed green, and they instantly lost their minds, turning into ferocious beasts and pouncing on the Buddha.

In the end, the Buddha was torn into pieces of flesh and blood by the victims, with blood splattering everywhere. Even his bones were chopped into pieces and swallowed by the victims.

"So in the end, not only did the Buddha fail to come into the world to save people, but he also died in the most tragic way possible."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Dao Ran also narrowed his eyes, and those eyes full of Buddha nature also had some human thoughts, he seemed very curious.

"He was eaten just like that? Will he be kind to others in the future?"

"Since he is a Buddha, he is naturally loving. Buddha is compassionate."

Everyone was shocked by Concubine Xian's words and couldn't help but start a discussion.

"It must be so. Otherwise, he cannot be called a Buddha, but a demon."

Concubine Yue nodded, seeming satisfied with the story.

"Buddha and devil are just a thought away."

Holy monk Dao Ran nodded in agreement.

"I just wonder what would happen if the virtuous concubine was treated like this and had memories?"

"Of course it was a demon. I am just an ordinary person. I was eaten alive by someone, so I naturally feel resentful."

Shen Zhishu said with a faint smile.
