Chapter 43
The angry Gu Jiusi wandered around in the dark temple. She had never seen any man as shameless as Chen Mubai in her life! She secretly swore that she would never sit on the same card table with him again in her life!
After being driven out by Wen Rang, Chen Mubai stayed in the house a little bored, so he came out to dissipate the smell of alcohol. In the end, two enemies with narrow roads met unexpectedly in a remote hall.
When Gu Jiusi pushed the door open and found that the hall was worshipped by Tibetan Buddhism, and only candles were lit in the hall. Gu Jiusi looked at each of them with his head tilted, squinting his eyes.
Not long after, a "creak" sound came from behind him. Gu Jiusi turned his head and looked at the door, and saw Chen Mubai walking in.
For some reason, the moment he saw him, Gu Jiusi suddenly felt that he didn't seem to be angry with him at all.
Chen Mubai was surprised to see Gu Jiusi who was already standing inside, and did not see any piousness. He casually sat on the cushion, stared at the Buddha statues around him, and saw Gu Jiusi's face full of solemnity, and asked her with no interest, "Do you believe this?"
"Finding", Gu Jiusi nodded, continued to look up at the Buddha statue in front of him, and silently said the second half of the sentence that he had not said in his heart.
Buddhism practices in the next life, Tibetan Buddhism practices in this life, the next life is too vague and too swaying in this life, I just wish everything will be well in this life.
Chen Mubai was a person without any taboos. At this time, only the two of them became more and more unrestrained. "Then do you think people like me want to go to hell?"
Gu Jiusi then turned his head and looked at Chen Mubai seriously. In such a solemn place, his eyebrows were still full of evil spirits, with a careless look, and he had no intention of piety at all. He drank some wine while eating, his face was slightly red and bright, but there was curiosity in his eyes. That part of the curiosity gradually turned into excitement, as if he really wanted to know if he would go to hell.
Somehow, Gu Jiusi actually bent her lips and smiled.
He is so evil, he kills ruthlessly, and there is no taboo. Others encounter gods and kills gods, and when they meet Buddhas, they are afraid that even gods and Buddhas will retreat when they see him. The three realms of gods, Buddhas and demons are allowed to gallop, so how can there be any saying of going to hell?
Chen Mubai got out of the cage and felt relieved. He seemed to be infected by her smile. He also smiled, "Why are you laughing at?"
"Some of these gods are guardian gods, some are the Ming kings or Vajras. The Ming kings or Vajras are the anger of all Buddhas or Bodhisattvas. The Bodhisattvas we see usually show compassion. It says that the Buddha said that in order to save sentient beings, Guanyin Bodhisattva can transform into different body forms, and of course it can show compassion and power. No matter which body form is convenient for saving lives, it is convenient for sentient beings with good roots to accept it. However, for sentient beings with stubborn roots, Bodhisattvas do not abandon them. It is not possible to subdue these strong and untransformed sentient beings. It is necessary to use powerful means to make them fear and accept it..." Gu Jiusi originally intended to say that no matter what kind of person, there will always be a way to save him, but halfway through his words, he felt that whether it is compassion or anger, it seemed to be ineffective for Chen Mubai.
Chen Mubai looked at the Buddha statue seriously and listened to Gu Jiusi's words, "How could you know this?"
Gu Jiusi paused, and his voice became a little deeper, "There is an elder at home who is very knowledgeable about Buddhism. I heard her say something when I was a child."
Chen Mubai thought for a while, "Is the same person as the elder you told you about embroidery last time?"
Gu Jiusi said casually at that time, but unexpectedly, Chen Mubai listened to it and nodded, "Yes."
In fact, in Gu Jiusi's memories, I no longer remember her voice, appearance, and smile, but I remember her back kneeling in front of the Buddha.
It is rare to hear Gu Jiusi mention his family. Chen Mubai followed her words and asked again, "She is very good to you?"
Gu Jiusi looked straight ahead, as if in a daze. Chen Mubai did not disturb her, and waited quietly.
After a while, she shook her head and replied softly, "At that time, she was too young and didn't know what good and bad are, what good and what evil are. I think that I am a good person when others smile at me. Now, people who treat me on the surface may not be sincere. People who treat me on the surface may really think about me."
The speaker was unintentional, and the listener was intentional. Chen Mubai suddenly felt guilty and coughed unintentionally and began to change the topic, "Is there a practice in Tibetan Buddhism? What's the name? Men and women practice dual cultivation?"
Gu Jiusi was stunned, and then his face became hot, and he knew that Chen Mubai began to "dissolutely" again. Sure enough, his voice slowly rang out.
"Isn't there any Buddha who is happy? First, he is attracted by desire, and then he is enlightened. I think this should be suitable for me, but I don't know who will save me?" As he said that, he really came up and looked at Gu Jiusi seriously, as if he was really discussing Buddhism with her.
Gu Jiusi retreated unnaturally, frowned and looked at him speechlessly, "In such a place, aren't you afraid of going to hell when you say such words?"
Chen Mubai didn't care at all, "Go to hell? Are you with me?"
Gu Jiusi forgot that other people's romance is to protect you and grow old with you all their lives, while Chen Mubai's romance is to die with you. Not everyone has the qualification to die with him and go to hell, and not everyone has that "award".
Chen Mubai suddenly laughed, "What kind of expression do you have? I'm joking about it."
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a loud noise outside the door, and then there were gorgeous fireworks in the sky. In just this moment, the sky soon returned to darkness and silence.
Gu Jiusi leaned his head and looked out, "Why are there anyone here to put this?"
Chen Mubai quickly stood up, "I asked Chen Jingkang to let go. It's almost 12 o'clock. Let's go, come with me."
Gu Jiusi didn't know what Chen Mubai was going to do again, "Where are you going?"
Chen Mubai pulled her up, "I'll know when I go."
When he left the hall, he realized that there was a wind roaring. Chen Mubai led her through most of the temple in the cold wind, and finally the two of them stood under the bell tower.
The steps leading to the top of the bell tower were steep and narrow, and there was no lighting, and it was pitch black. Gu Jiusi suddenly stopped.
After Chen Mubai climbed a few steps, he found that the person behind him did not follow him. He stopped, turned around, and then reached out to Gu Jiusi.
The bell tower is located in the corner of the temple, and it is pitch black around it, with only the howling wind in my ears.
Gu Jiusi couldn't see anything clearly, so he could only barely see the hand in front of her.
She thought this scene was very familiar, the difference was that Chen Mubai did not give up his wrong hand this time.
It seemed that it was back to that snowy night. That night, Chen Mubai also extended his hand to her. At that time, they tried to figure out each other. Several months have passed, has there been any change between them now? Or have too many things happened in the past few months, nothing has changed, it has become just her mood?
Time passed by minute by minute, and Chen Mubai's clear and low voice slowly sounded in the darkness, and he was calling her name.
"Gu Jiusi."
Gu Jiusi subconsciously responded, "Hmm?"
"Do you don't believe me or you don't believe in yourself?"
He said it seriously and slowly.
Gu Jiusi couldn't see his face, but because of his words, her heart was ruined and in a mess, which made her panic and didn't know how to answer.
After a while, a chuckle suddenly came, with a coaxing, "Okay, come up quickly, I won't be able to catch up with the New Year bell in a while. I will have to wait for another year if I can't catch up with it this time."
Gu Jiusi seemed to be bewitched by laughter, and actually abandoned the distracting thoughts and reached out to hold his hand, followed him and stepped onto the steps leading to the rooftop.
In my memory, I once had a pair of wide and warm big hands holding her step by step, but now I hold my hand delicately and slightly cool, but it still makes her not afraid to move forward.
The wind on the roof of the bell tower was much stronger than the one below. Gu Jiu thought to reach out to suppress the hair that was blown by the wind, and thrust for a moment, but he didn't pull out his hand.
Chen Mubai didn't let go, looked at her, and seemed to have no intention of letting go. He turned to face her, raised his other hand to help her clean her flying hair, tucked it behind her ears, and tightened her collar. After doing a series of movements, he looked at her and asked, "Is it cold?"
His movements were naturally and smooth, and there was no abnormality. Gu Jiusi listened to his heartbeat that sounded like a drum, and felt that he was really pretentious and tried to pretend to be indifferent to the answer, "It's not cold."
Chen Mubai wrapped her hands in her palms and warmed them, "Why are you shaking if you are not cold?"
When she came out, she didn't plan to stay outside for too long. She just casually put on a coat and didn't even tie a scarf. She was trembling in the air at this moment.
But no matter how cold she was, she wouldn't say it out loud, she was afraid... but it was obvious that she was self-indulgent.
Chen Mubai looked at her for a few seconds and suddenly spoke, "It's okay, you can just say it, I won't wear my clothes for you anyway, I'm very cold too. Ask you again, is it cold?"
Gu Jiusi rolled her eyes in anger, a little angry, a little ashamed, and uttered a word fiercely, "Cold! Are you satisfied!"
Chen Mubai nodded with satisfaction, "Fortunately I wear a lot, why didn't I say cold earlier?"
After saying that, he let go of her hand, unbuttoned the buttons of his coat, pulled her to her back to him and wrapped her arms, blocking the wind for her, and spoke again, "Is it still cold?"
His movements were very fast, but in just a few seconds, before she could react, she felt the warmth behind her and the breath on her body.
She was a little stunned.
Chen Mubai's arms were still surrounded by her waist, and his chin was resting on her shoulder and tilted his head, asking, "Why don't you talk?"
Gu Jiusi replied very quickly, "It's not cold."
Seeing that she was still trembling, Chen Mubai grabbed her hand, held it in her hand and tried the temperature. He knew that she was really not cold. After thinking about it, he suddenly laughed, "What are you afraid of?"
Gu Jiusi was afraid, she was really afraid, she was afraid that if she continued to develop, she would be doomed.
One word was another answer, "I'm afraid you'll push me down."
"You, when can you tell the truth? It seems that you don't believe me."
There was a smile in his voice. I wonder if the cold wind was too cold, but she could hear it a little undetectable.
