The explosion in the city became a topic of conversation among the civilians of the empire. Some said it was a vendetta, while others said it was due to the master's carelessness. Everyone was talking about it, but until the police station announced the truth, no one dared to draw conclusions easily. However, many people
In the end, they all tended to think of a vendetta. Those who knew that this was Sun Ce's property eliminated the possibility of a vendetta - the Sun family was a famous family in the empire, and not many people in the empire dared to do this.
Huo Xueman went to the scene, and Sun Ce also stayed at the scene until midnight. After Huo Xueman left, he told Noila Mo what happened. After hearing this, Noila Mo reassured Huo Xueman and said that the Welsh city was now closed.
Chu Yu and the others can't run away.
Seeing Noila Mo's vow, Huo Xueman didn't say anything more. As soon as she left the Golden Palace, Noila Mo sent people to search the Welsh city, but no news came. By the evening of the next day, she saw
There was still no news about Chu Yu, so Huo Xueman became anxious. She began to order people from the alliance to search for Chu Yu and others in secret.
Huo Xueman was worried that Chu Yu and Huo Yunhan would escape, and Sun Ce was also worried. At dawn the next day, he ordered people to search in the city, but no news came. Chu Yu seemed to have evaporated from the world.
No clues could be found. If it was difficult to find a place to hide a few living people, then the car he asked Guo Fei to drive was nowhere to be found.
Sun Ce asked the soldiers guarding the city. Since the city gate was closed last night, it had not been opened again. Could this car disappear out of thin air? This was something that puzzled Sun Ce, but he didn't have the slightest clue.
In the evening, Sun Ce went to the Prince's Mansion, but found nothing. On the second day after Chu Yu disappeared, on the surface, nothing had changed in the city, but martial law had begun. Noila Mo invested a lot of manpower to search for Chu Yu.
Yu and his party planned to dig three feet into the ground to find Chu Yu.
On the fourth day, it was the most important festival in the empire. Because of Chu Yu, many people could not stay with their relatives and had to continue looking for Chu Yu.
Although Chu Yu stayed in Faxuan Temple, he knew everything about the situation in the city of Wales. Hui Jue would report the situation outside to them at any time - Chu Yu and his party lived in the basement of Hui Jue's Zen house, except for the convenience of going to the toilet.
In addition, a few of them eat and live downstairs. Fortunately, the basement is quite spacious and well ventilated. Apart from not being able to see the sun, nothing else remains the same.
In just three days, everyone has changed. When they first came to the basement, everyone was still chatting. Now they look at each other and rarely talk. The two brothers Guo Fei and Guo Tao used to stay up late, but now they seize the opportunity.
Basically sleeping all the time, Wang Hao and Li Ge were running their own exercises in the basement. Qian Duoduo was the most bored, looking at this and that. Huo Yunhan was pregnant, leaning
Lying on the only wooden bed in the basement, Cao Man was very quiet. There were not many other things in the basement, but there were many Buddhist scriptures. She read the Buddhist scriptures when she had nothing to do, and read them with gusto. In addition to guiding Wang Hao and Li Ge's practice, Chu Yu also did more
Time is also for meditation.
"It's the Spring Festival." After eating a simple meal, Guo Fei listened to the faint sound of firecrackers and looked towards the north and said.
"Don't think about it. It's not like you don't know. If you're in the city, you won't be able to sleep due to the sound of firecrackers tonight." Guo Tao continued from the side.
"I've long been used to it." Qian Duoduo came to the two brothers Guo Fei and said, "This year is the most lively."
"The most lively one?" Guo Fei said and laughed: "You said so many people are together?"
"Yes, I used to be alone at this time, cooking a few dishes and drinking some wine." Qian Duoduo said and looked around: "It's so lively with so many of us together. It would be better if we had some wine."
." Qian Duoduo said and looked at Chu Yu: "Brother Yu, can you let Hui Jue bring some wine and meat?"
"Come on." Chu Yu shook his head: "This is a pure place of Buddhism. Let's practice some moral integrity."
"Okay." Qian Duoduo shook his head helplessly and looked at Cao Man: "Is Buddhism really that good? I fell asleep watching it last night."
"I think it's pretty good." Cao Man raised his head from the Buddhist scriptures, raised the Buddhist scriptures in his hand and said, "It's really pretty good. Just like the story I'm reading now, shall I tell you about it?"
"Tell me about it." Chu Yu said and walked towards Cao Man, picked up a book of Buddhism from Cao Man's hand and read through it.
"This story is about the four immeasurable minds. The general meaning of the story is that before the Buddha became a Buddha, he once treated one of his disciples. The story started because his disciple was addicted to eating greasy food.
I have constant abdominal pain and am suffering from it.”
After Cao Man spoke for a while, seeing that everyone was listening attentively, he continued: "This disciple of the Buddha couldn't bear the pain, so he groaned and recited - Namo Buddha, Namo Amitabha! At that time, the Buddha was meditating in his residence,
When he heard this voice, he felt compassion, used his supernatural power to reach the disciple, touched his abdomen with his hand, and made a bowl of soup for his disciple with his own hands."
"Strange to say, his disciple took the medicinal decoction and was cured of his illness. Afterwards, his disciple betrayed the Buddha. The Buddha not only saved him without remembering his injustice, but also made him happy with kindness, relieved his suffering with compassion, and
I am happy to be healed, and treat them equally regardless of whether they are enemies or relatives."
"This kind of behavior of the Buddha is the four immeasurable hearts of great kindness, great compassion, great joy, and great equanimity."
“The four immeasurable hearts achieved by the Buddha are not achieved together with those of the Three Vehicles. They can be very kind and take pleasure in the happiness of all living beings. They can be very compassionate and take the suffering of all living beings as suffering. They can be very happy and rejoice in the joy of all living beings being freed from suffering. They can have great equanimity.
There is no dwelling, the mind is equal, and all living beings are benefited."
After Cao Man finished speaking, everyone in the basement fell silent. After a moment, Cao Man looked at Chu Yu and said, "Do you still remember what we said when we first met?"
Chu Yu frowned: "What are you referring to?"
"As for past lives, I didn't understand what Buddhism said before. I discovered a problem in the past two days."
"Perhaps there really is reincarnation in this world."
"Some people are destined to have no destiny, and they are vain and daydreaming. Some people are destined to have no destiny, and they are dark and desolate."
Chu Yu didn't know what to say, so he nodded: "It seems it's time for me to read Buddhist scriptures."
Cao Man shook his head: "No, some people can't figure out the reason after reading Buddhist scriptures all their lives. It depends on the root of wisdom."
"It seems that among all of us, you are the only one with the wisdom." Huo Yunhan said at this time: "I also read the Buddhism you read yesterday, but I couldn't understand anything, so naturally I couldn't understand it.
It’s very meaningful.”
Cao Man smiled: "This is cause and effect." As soon as Cao Man finished speaking, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang. Cao Man picked up the phone and looked at it. Seeing that it was a text message from Cao Hui, she hurriedly opened it and waited.
After she read the message, Cao Man's expression changed slightly. She looked at Chu Yu and smiled bitterly and handed the phone to Chu Yu: "Take a look."
Chu Yu took the phone and saw that Cao Hui was on the text message. He wanted to be alone now and asked Cao Man not to worry.
"You're probably still angry with me." Chu Yu said and returned the phone to Cao Man: "You can call him and have a chat with him."
Cao Man nodded and dialed Cao Huiti's phone number, but found that Cao Huiti's phone had been turned off.
"I'll send him another message. He can see it when he turns on his phone." After Cao Man finished speaking, he began to edit text messages for Cao Hui. Chu Yu stood aside. Huo Yunhan looked at Chu Yu at this time and said: "Chu Yu
Yu, come here for a moment."
Chu Yu walked up to Huo Yunhan. Cao Man, who was editing the text message, paused for a moment. She continued editing the text message without raising her head. When Chu Yu came to Huo Yunhan, Huo Yunhan looked at Chu Yu and said
: "How long are we going to stay here?"
Chu Yu shook his head: "It will take at least half a month."
"Any plans?"
Chu Yu nodded: "The prince's plan is for us to stay here first. He will make a move later. We will leave after something unexpected happens in Faxuan Temple."
"That's all?"
Chu Yu looked at Huo Yunhan and was silent for a moment: "There are others."
"Does the prince want to rebel?" Huo Yunhan suddenly asked directly. Because her voice was not quiet, everyone in the basement could hear her clearly.
"What?" Before Chu Yu could speak, Qian Duoduo had already jumped up: "Brother Yu, what Miss Huo said is not true, is it?"
"What's wrong? Why are you so excited?" Seeing Guo Fei and Guo Tao also gathered around, Chu Yu smiled: "You're surprised?"
"Since everyone is staying here, I won't hide it from everyone." Chu Yu said for a while: "The prince does mean to rebel."
"The two brothers fighting for the throne have nothing to do with us."
"But the prince promised me that after I succeed, there will be a place for us in the empire."
"I don't care what position we have. If we didn't stand with the prince, I'm afraid we would have been escorted back to the alliance by now."
"Besides that, I decided to join forces with the prince because of personal reasons."
"What's the reason?" Qian Duoduo frowned and asked: "At first I thought I was avoiding the alliance's pursuit, but I didn't expect it to be such an earth-shattering thing. Brother Yu, are you sure you're not kidding me?"
"This is my business, you don't need to get involved." Chu Yu said with a wry smile: "I will go out then, you just stay here, if you don't succeed, you will be benevolent. No matter what the result is, you should leave here
no problem."
"No, Brother Yu. Since we are staying here together, I don't want to get out alive. Isn't it just a rebellion? I'm not afraid. Besides, since the prince dares to rebel, I don't know how long he has been preparing for it. The result is really unpredictable.
, if it succeeds, won’t we go sideways in the empire?”
"You think this is gambling." Guo Fei looked at Qian Duoduo and shook his head, and then said to Chu Yu: "Brother Yu, it's okay. Since we two brothers have decided to follow you, we have no intention of leaving, so regardless of each other
Who is it? To put it pessimistically, even if we touch an egg against a stone, we still have to leave some traces on the stone, right?"
Chu Yu hummed: "Everyone is staying here these days, waiting for the time to come. When the time comes, I will go out. If necessary, I will definitely find you."
"I don't want to leave." After Chu Yu finished speaking, Cao Man suddenly said at this time.
"Don't want to leave?" Chu Yu looked at Cao Man, somewhat confused by what Cao Man meant.
"I want to stay in Faxuan Temple to study Buddhism." Cao Man said, his eyes falling on the Buddhism in his hand: "This is a pure place, and I want to become a monk here."
