Chapter 52 Confession

Hearing Tang Xiaobao's question, Lin Wenfeng asked the same question again: "Why do lay Buddhists want to worship my teacher?"

"Didn't I say it yesterday?" Tang Xiaobao said stubbornly.

Seeing that he was still like this, Lin Wenfeng said, "Then I also answered the lay Buddhist yesterday."

After saying that, he ignored him, but this did not mean that Tang Xiaobao gave up. Tang Xiaobao asked, "Master, you must give me a reason."

Lin Wenfeng turned around and looked at Tang Xiaobao: "Then I will open the skylight and say something, because you are lying to me."

Seeing that Tang Xiaobao was a little dissatisfied. Lin Wenfeng continued, "When you answered why you wanted to be a teacher, you didn't dare to look at me in front of me. You looked around and pretended to be calm because you were guilty and afraid of being missed.

The body language of liars is usually relatively stiff, and there is basically no body language of hands and feet when lying;

And the speaking speed is slow because you are thinking about whether the logic of what you say is correct, but while lying, thinking that the language is organized very slowly, and there will be a feeling of intermittent, incoherent, and disorganized.

I don’t know if my answer satisfies the layman, but I still have to continue talking.”

When Tang Xiaobao heard Lin Wenfeng expose himself like Sherlock Holmes, he felt like a clown and thought that his performance was wonderful, but others had seen through everything long ago.

Tang Xiaobao muttered in a low voice: "Isn't it just a small lie? What's the big deal?"

He felt that his voice was small enough, but Lin Wenfeng still heard it. Lin Wenfeng looked at him and said righteously: "Does the layman know what is the most important thing in practicing Taoism?"

Of course, Tang Xiaobao didn't know, and if he had known, he wouldn't have lie to Lin Wenfeng from the beginning.

Seeing him shook his head, Lin Wenfeng continued: "The most important thing in practicing Taoism is to cultivate virtue, "no virtue can cultivate Taoism."

The innate true nature of a person is originally the same as Taixu, pure and white, empty and empty. After being born, all kinds of acquired false thoughts are produced, like clouds covering the moon, ignoring the true nature, causing obstacles to the practice of Taoism, difficult to remove thoughts, and hindering the practice of Taoism.

The purpose of cultivating virtue is to cultivate a person's humility, gentleness, selflessness and unconfrontation.

Purify the mind, eliminate delusions and return to the truth, and then do the work, and enter into tranquility and achieve deep work.

"If the virtue is righteous, the mind will be at peace, and if the mind is peaceful, the qi will be smooth." If there is no smelting of virtue, the mind will be unclear and the nature will be impure. In this way, if you practice cultivation, you will be like building a building on sand."

"The layman treated me with a lie when he first met me. How did I believe that the layman came to my Wenfeng Temple to practice with peace of mind."

Only then did Tang Xiaobao realize that his subconscious action had such an impact on Lin Wenfeng's heart, which made him really want to slap himself in two big mouths.

Seeing that Lin Wenfeng was about to see him off at this time, Tang Xiaobao spoke: "Master, I will tell you the truth, actually..."

Tang Xiaobao had no choice but to tell the truth, saying that he was forced by his father for some reason, and he had no choice. The reason why he made an excuse was because he was afraid that Lin Wenfeng would not accept him as his disciple after hearing this.

After listening to Tang Xiaobao's explanation, Lin Wenfeng nodded. That's right. You can say whatever you have. It's not a big deal to hide it, which makes you a character problem in the eyes of others.

"How did Ling Zun know me!" Lin Wenfeng was very confused when he heard him telling the reason why he came here, how did your father know me.

Only then did Tang Xiaobao remember that he forgot to introduce himself because he was too nervous.

So he said, "I'm sorry to forgot to introduce myself. My name is Tang Xiaobao, my father Tang Zhongqiang, I don't know if I have any impression of it."

Why didn’t Lin Wenfeng have no impression? He just went on the phone with him yesterday.

It turned out that the boy in front of me was Tang Zhongqiang's son. No wonder I always felt that I had seen him somewhere, but I really didn't have such a person in my impression.

Lin Wenfeng, who knew the whole story, said to Tang Xiaobao: "Since that's the case, I will just say to Ling Zun, let's just forget about getting a disciple."

After saying that, he took out his cell phone and prepared to call Tang Zhongqiang.

Tang Xiaobao saw this and it was a big deal. Doesn’t this mean that he had no chance to become a disciple? Then he had to sweep the floor and go out when he went back. He quickly stepped forward to stop Lin Wenfeng who took out his cell phone.

Lin Wenfeng looked at him in confusion, "Aren't you willing to come?" I'll tell your dad that you can go home."

Tang Xiaobao explained: "Master, if my dad knows about this, I will be swept out of the house."

He also explained to Lin Wenfeng in detail the various stories he had come here, and the consequences he would face if he was rejected.

In Lin Wenfeng's opinion, this was entirely his own fault, but he still asked: "What should the layman thinks should be done."

Tang Xiaobao thought for a moment and said, "Master, can you see, can you do this? I will stay here for two months. Then you call my father and say that I have already taken you as your teacher, and then I have received your recognition, but I don't worry, I will bear the living expenses myself."

But before Tang Xiaobao finished speaking, Lin Wenfeng said loudly: "It's ridiculous. Are you going to lie and deceive people like you? And are you treating my Wenfeng Temple as a hotel?"

"I don't mean that." Tang Xiaobao didn't understand why Lin Wenfeng suddenly got angry, so he said cautiously.

"Forget it, you go." Lin Wenfeng no longer wanted to say more to him.

Seeing that Lin Wenfeng really wanted to drive him away, Tang Xiaobao didn't care about the question of being face-saving or not. Besides, there were no people in the deep mountains and forests, so he walked up to him with the idea of ​​not succeeding and Chengren and hugged Lin Wenfeng's thighs, crying, "Master, don't drive me away;

Please give me a chance, I will listen to you, I will do whatever you say..."

Lin Wenfeng had never seen such a shameless person. He really didn't know what to do for a moment. In the end, he was entangled with him and said, "You let go first, let go later."

Tang Xiaobao held his thighs and looked up at Lin Wenfeng, and said in a pitiful tone: "Then promise me, otherwise I will not let go even if I beat me to death."

"Okay, I'll give you a chance for the sake of the layman's father and grandfather." Lin Wenfeng was still too young after all, and had no experience in dealing with this, so he really couldn't stand such a desperate pester.

On the other hand, Lin Wenfeng didn’t think that Tang Xiaobao could stay for long. He thought that Tang Xiaobao would ask to go home by himself for more than ten days, so he felt that he would let it go.

Tang Xiaobao suddenly let go of his hand and stood up, looked at Lin Wenfeng and said, "So the Taoist priest agreed to accept me as his disciple?"

"I didn't say that. I just said that I would give you a chance. Whether you collect it depends on your performance. If you can't satisfy me, you can only be embarrassed." Lin Wenfeng's words mean that as long as you can't meet your requirements, you should pack your luggage and leave.

Tang Xiaobao didn't dare to say no, so he nodded desperately and said yes.

As long as you can stay, you will have a chance. If you can't stay, what else can you say?
