Chapter 158 The Saint and the Lama
"Why?" Faced with my question, Lu Shan fell silent, as if he was very unwilling to recall this period, and the look on his face showed pain.
And I kept silent. Opening the wound is not something that everyone can face directly. I also decided that if Lu Shan was unwilling to talk about this part, I would not listen.
But after Lu Shan smoked two cigarettes in silence, he finally spoke: "That year, I was 20 years old, and it had been more than 3 years, almost 4 years since I entered Lagang Monastery. I said before that I was very talented.
The height may be inherited from my parents who disappeared mysteriously, but I never saw Pema in the first two years of entering the monastery."
"Huh?" When Lu Shan described his entry into Lagang Temple before, he did not mention Pema. When he said this, I only remembered this, so I was full of questions.
"It's because, although I had outstanding talents at that time, I was not qualified enough to see the Holy Son and the Holy Girl. It was not until the third year after I entered the temple that Lagang Temple prepared a mysterious sacrificial event, and I met Pema.
At the same time, I also met Tao Bai." Lu Shan licked his lips and told me this paragraph.
"What mysterious sacrificial activities?" Originally, the key point of this paragraph was definitely not any sacrificial activities, but I don't know why I intuitively wanted to grasp this point.
"Oh, I can't explain this clearly. You know that every religion has its own inheritance and culture. The culture of Tibetan Buddhism also believes in various Buddhas of Western Bliss, while Taoism has its own various
That sacrifice to the immortals and gods." When Lu Shan said this, he frowned slightly, then
Then he organized his speech and said: "I feel that the sacrifice is not what Buddhism believes in, but is something close to something mentioned in Taoist culture. The sacrifice is said to be a sacrifice to some immortal gods who came out of a mysterious place. In short,
It’s the biggest secret of Lagang Temple, and I don’t know much about it.”
Lu Shan shook his head when he said this, but my heartbeat was beating too obviously, as if there were some scattered clues taking shape in my mind. Lagang Temple was suddenly closed.
, it was originally a kind and sincere temple, but the greatest lalama who ever walked through it transformed such an evil temple. In Lu Shan’s narrative, he did almost all evil, and now even his beliefs have changed?
However, I couldn't come to any conclusion for a while, but Lu Shan asked me from the side: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, you continue." At this time, I believed in the magic of fate even more. Lu Shan and Tao Bo, who seemed to have nothing to do with us, broke into our lives rashly. From now on, where are they?
In this way? Destiny arranges for everyone in life. Which one does not have the entanglement of cause and effect? Which one does not have its mysterious and profound meaning?
Lu Shan didn't know the emotion in my heart, but continued: "That meeting was when I was finally qualified to see the mysterious priest. It was also at that time that I saw Baima in full dress and standing beside her.
Next to them, Tao Bai, who has grown up again and is almost 10 years old, is also dressed in costumes. Standing around the two of them are all the most powerful senior officials of Lagang Temple, and their expressions are also respectful."
"Then have you and Baima recognized each other?" I asked. After years of hard pursuit, how excited should you be once you meet? If it were me, I would definitely not be able to help shouting.
Born, and then rushed up to recognize each other. I was looking forward to this scene, so I asked Lu Shan.
Lu Shan shook his head and said: "How can we recognize each other? When she was dressed up, she stood on the high platform so holy, just like a real goddess from heaven descending to earth. I am just an ordinary monk practicing in Lagang Temple, and I have clear rules and precepts.
On the body, even if the monks of Lagang Temple are not so observant in private,
, but she is a saint, do I dare to have any blasphemous thoughts? Chengyi, I am not as chic as you. Maybe the person you care about, whether it is a beggar or an emperor, you may be as always, in this aspect
, you people like Lao Li seem not to be burdened by worldly sentiments, but I really can’t."
"You mean, the moment you saw Baima, you felt ashamed again just like when you first saw her as a child?" I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows and asked. Indeed, in my heart, I couldn't
Understand Lu Shan’s mentality. Lu Shan summed up the characteristics of our Lao Li lineage. Is he really right? This is also the equal education that Master gave me since I was a child. Everything is done with a heart of awe, so everything is done.
We are equally equal in our eyes.
"Yes, it was that kind of mentality that made me very excited for a while, but I didn't dare to recognize each other. In the past, Baima and I got closer to each other, and it took a long time to eliminate my sense of distance, but
When she appeared in front of me dressed up, the invisible distance widened again. So, I was so excited.
Under the circumstances, I didn’t dare to recognize Baima. But how could the longing and friendship for so many years be fake? In the end, I still mustered up the courage and was ready to call Baima’s name." Lu Shan said this
, paused, feeling a little excited, as if he had gone back to the time when he saw Baima again.
"So, what's Baima's attitude?" It turns out that we finally recognized each other. I was very curious about what Baima's attitude would be like when he saw Lu Shan who was really pursuing him.
"Oh, we didn't recognize each other." Lu Shan denied me at this time. Without waiting for me to ask, he continued: "Actually, Baima discovered me at the first time. When I wanted to recognize each other,
, she looked at me and said nothing, but I could understand the warning in Baima's eyes, telling me not to recognize her. Even when no one was paying attention, she shook her head gently at me.
."
"Is that so? But what about Tao Bo? For such a young child, he may not know anything. Won't he be excited when he recognizes you?" I asked.
"Tao Bai was led by Baima, and he naturally recognized me. When I saw him, he almost called me, but then I didn't know why, but he didn't say anything anymore. At that moment, I didn't know Baima.
What did you do?" Lu Shan shook his head and said that Tao Bai didn't recognize him at that time.
"Has Pema already noticed something is wrong in Lagang Temple?" I couldn't help but ask, otherwise such behavior would be too weird.
"No, Pema didn't notice anything wrong with Lagang Monastery at all. If I were older and entered Lagang Monastery earlier, what if?" This point seemed to hit Lushan's pain point, and he suddenly became very painful.
At night like this, when I turned around, I saw that his entire face was flushed and the veins on his neck were bulging out because of the pain.
"What's going on?" I couldn't help but ask.
"It was Baima who wanted to protect me. In the year she said goodbye to me, she officially became a high-ranking saint. And what is a saint? She is naturally a sacred and flawless existence. Not to mention the fact that Lagang Temple has a hidden agenda.
Those of us who practice Lalama's precepts say that her saint
As a woman, how can I be allowed to have friendship with a Lalama like me? Although Pema and I have never talked about this kind of relationship, it is just like friendship and companionship. However, the saint is aloof and cannot approach anyone.
"Yes." Lu Shan explained to me.
"But, before, you had been getting along for five years, didn't Lagang Monastery know about it?" I was very surprised, since Lagang Monastery cared so much about Pema, how could it have been five years like that?
"Oh, I know, but those five years were specially for Pema to practice. The five years of entering the world are not allowed to be carried out when Pema is older, for fear that Pema will really be contaminated by the world.
After all, there won’t be so many feelings in childhood. And Pema and her brother are inseparable.
So, during the five years that Pema practiced like this, he actually left Lagang Monastery and lived on the grassland. He was accompanied by a few powerful men, but they did not monitor him. During the five years of letting nature take its course, he was the only one who was in danger of Pema.
When the time comes, notify them in a special way and they will show up." Lu Shan explained to me.
"So good?" I simply can't imagine that Lagang Monastery allowed the saint to be so indulgent for five years.
"Good? What do you mean by good? That's because they need purer souls, not ignorant souls. Do you understand what I mean? The people over at Lagang Temple believe that only those who enter the world and see the suffering of time are the saints.
Only women can fully inspire compassion,
Only with a compassionate heart for the world can such a soul be more holy, pure and compassionate. Only then can her soul be more powerful." Lu Shan explained this to me, and when he said this
, his fists were clenched.
"So that's it." Seeing Lu Shan like this, I didn't dare to ask any more questions. I could only say this lightly. I felt that Lu Shan's pain and hatred were like a burning fire. I sat on his bed.
Everyone nearby felt the pain that burned their souls.
"In short, this is what happened behind the scenes, and Pema prevented me from getting to know her. In fact, it left a deep wound in my heart at that time. I thought that when Pema said goodbye to me that time, it was not only me and
Her separation, she was actually saying goodbye to the friendship between her and me. We will never recognize each other again, but even so, how can I forget the warmth she brought to me, the hope she brought to me, and the initial throbbing she brought me?
Marks engraved deep in my soul
So, even though I was in pain, I still didn’t have the courage to leave Lagang Temple. After Pema and I met for the first time, we could see each other often because of my status, but it had completely become a situation where we met but didn’t know each other.
The pain of the relationship between an ordinary practicing speaker and a superior saint lasted for more than a year. When I was 20 years old and it had been four years since I entered Lagang Monastery, everything changed." Lu Shan's hands began to tremble.
.
"What change happened?" I was actually still imagining Lu Shan's pain at that time, but I didn't expect that things had changed again.
"Lagang Temple is going to hold the largest sacrificial event, which is also known as the most sacred event. In that event, the slogan is to make the saint eternal and let her compassion shine in the world forever." Lu Shan
His face was distorted, and he was gasping for air when he said this.
