Chapter 350 Jia Heng: The teacher is too good to practice (seeking the moon)
In the side room, Xichun got up. The joy on her pretty face with a bit of baby fat disappeared. She stood up and came over to greet her. Her voice was obviously a little milky, but she pretended to be cold: "
Why is Brother Heng here?"
Jia Heng nodded to Xichun, smiled and said, "Come here to see you, why haven't you gone to your sister-in-law's place to have dinner with us in the past few days?"
As he spoke, without waiting for Xichun to speak, his clear eyes turned to look at Miaoyu and said, "Master Miaoyu is here too?"
Being stared at by the upright young man with a condescending and somewhat oppressive calm gaze, Miaoyu's eyes moved slightly, she stood up and clasped her hands together, "Amitabha, I have seen Uncle Heng."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said: "Master Miaoyu doesn't need to be polite."
Miaoyu slowly raised her jade face, which was as crystal clear as snow, and looked at the young man opposite her quietly.
However, the young man turned his attention to Xichun again and asked softly: "Sister Xichun, have you been feeling better these days?"
Xichun shook her head gently and said: "Brother Heng, I'm fine, um..."
Clearly, she suddenly felt her wrist being pulled by the young man beside her. Fangxin was slightly startled, but a gentle voice sounded in her ears, saying: "Sister Xichun, please stop standing and sit down to eat."
Xichun pursed her lips and sat down as Jia Heng approached the round table. Then she turned to look at the young man beside her and hesitated to speak.
"Master Miaoyu is also sitting." Jia Heng raised his eyes, looked at Miaoyu who was still standing, and said, "Master Miaoyu doesn't need to eat either."
Miaoyu did not sit down, but her starry eyes trembled, and she said: "If Uncle Heng talks to the Fourth Miss, can I avoid it?"
Jia Heng said: "That's not necessary. Master Miaoyu is here and can help me enlighten Sister Xichun."
As he said that, Lang Mu under his sword-shaped eyebrows stared at Miao Yu with clear eyes.
One is sitting and the other is standing, but the power of oppression of the one sitting does not decrease but increases.
When standing, he is condescending; when sitting, he remains motionless.
Miaoyu frowned her willow-leaf slender eyebrows, her bright eyes were slightly cold, and she felt a little unhappy. She felt that this young powerful man was a bit aggressive.
But in a second thought, it became somewhat clear in my mind. Please enlighten me?
This is what this young man told me before, asking me to persuade Xichun.
But she... didn't take it to heart.
At this time, Xichun looked at Miaoyu and said in a crisp voice: "Master Miaoyu, let's sit down and eat together."
When Jia Heng heard this title, his eyes moved slightly. Did he say that he was a teacher?
At this moment, Miaoyu took the opportunity to sit down, but her eyes were cold, like stone jade.
Jia Heng looked at the dishes on the table, which were all vegetables and rice, and there were only two dishes of vegetables. He turned to look at Xichun, his brows furrowed, his eyes sharp, and he said, "Sister, is this all you eat these days?"
Xichun heard the question, especially when he saw the somewhat stern look on his face. He subconsciously panicked and said hurriedly: "Brother Heng, I haven't had much appetite these days."
However, Ru Hua then answered and said: "Uncle, please advise my girl, she has been eating these light foods these days."
Xichun knitted her beautiful eyebrows, her cheeks were filled with frost, and she glared into the painting.
Jia Heng said softly: "Sister Xichun, don't blame me for being too talkative. You are growing up now, and your diet should not be too light or tasteless."
Hearing the slightly reproachful tone, Xichun's hands hidden under the table tightened and she said softly: "We are chatting with Master Miaoyu here, so we shouldn't get angry with each other."
Miaoyu: "???"
Jia Heng's tone turned gentle, and he warned: "Master Miaoyu is a person who has transformed into an outsider. He has attained Taoism and is a nun. He can still live in the world forever, but he is not comparable to a little girl like you. Besides, she is already an adult."
, you are still a child, you... don’t want to grow up, right? "
After saying that, he touched the little Loli's head and killed her with one hit.
Hearing this, Xichun couldn't help but raise her eyes and glance at Miaoyu. Seeing her slender figure, she softly said "Hmm", but felt her head being touched by the young man, her heart skipped a beat, and her cheeks suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
Of course, it is more because of this doting method of coaxing children that I feel complicated and at a loss.
Miaoyu looked indifferent and said in a clear voice: "Uncle Heng is serious, the poor nun is also a mortal body. He has just chanted the Buddha's name since he was three years old, practiced hard for many years, and has long been happy with the simple food."
Hearing this, Jia Heng turned to look at Miaoyu, who had a serene face and cold words.
He secretly said, Miaoyu is Miaoyu, she doesn't suffer at all, and she is clearly being clever in what she says.
I mean, this is how I grew up as a vegetarian. Who do you think you are?
In fact, he was a little bit emotional just now. Xichun had been with Miaoyu for only a short time before he was affected by the negative impact. Miaoyu did not take his previous "words first" to heart.
After a while, Jia Heng nodded and praised: "Master is so good at practicing."
Miaoyu: "???"
Teacher Tai?
You can't say it, but just a personal attack?
The person in charge of Ningrong's Second Mansion, the head of the Jia family, has this kind of demeanor. He is really a brave warrior, which is unreasonable.
Miaoyu's heart grew colder and she glanced at Jia Heng without saying anything else.
It turns out he is just a common man.
Jia Heng did not look at Miaoyu anymore, but looked at Xichun with a leisurely expression, and said softly: "Buddhists believe in compassion, and there is also the act of serving an eagle with one's own flesh. Master Tai's Buddhist teachings are exquisite, and his merits are closely related to nature. He can see that there are many things that are different from each other."
"Xiang, how could I feel unbearable and disgusted because I saw you eating meat and fishy food?"
When Miaoyu heard this, her face paused slightly, and she bit her lips with her teeth. Her eyes were as cold and sharp as a star in the cold moon, and she looked at the young man as if nothing had happened.
This is the Buddhist Ji Feng saying that she is arrogant, stingy, and has not seen her true nature...
Xichun's face paused, and she looked at Jia Heng in surprise, murmuring in her heart: "All appearances are false. If you see all appearances that are not appearances, then you will see the Tathagata... This is a sentence from the Diamond Sutra."
Jia Heng looked at Xichun, who looked at him in surprise with a crooked face, and said with a smile: "So, next time I have dinner with Master Miaoyu, we can eat separately without affecting each other."
Xichun did not respond to these words, but asked with gleaming eyes and a hint of curiosity on her baby-fat pink cheeks: "Brother Heng also understands Buddhism?"
As soon as these words came out, Miaoyu on the side frowned slightly, looked at the young man opposite, and couldn't help but said: "Uncle Heng, in the official world, he is adept at the study of punishment, magic, and the way to govern the country.
Qi Yi purifies evil and understands Buddhism?"
Her father was a famous official who believed in Confucianism and the way of governing the world, but considered Buddhism and Taoism to be eccentric.
There may be officials who believe in Buddhism, but most of them are uneducated and greedy. They burn incense and worship Buddha just for promotion and wealth, which in turn tarnishes the quiet place of Buddhism.
Jia Heng raised his eyes to look at Miaoyu and smiled softly.
Although these words were respectful to him, they also contained a hidden edge. Miaoyu was not only aloof and arrogant, but also quite aggressive in her words.
Compared to Daiyu who is narrow-minded and petty, Miaoyu is more paranoid, cold and arrogant.
Thinking of this, he said without thinking: "If you don't realize it, Buddha is a living being. When you realize it, all living beings are Buddha. How can Master say that I don't have Buddha-nature?"
This is a verse written by Hui Neng, the Sixth Patriarch of Zen Buddhism. Of course, the world only remembers these two sentences: Bodhi Tree, Mirror Stand, and Jia Heng.
Huineng's words mean that all living beings have Buddha nature, and the key lies in enlightenment. It is appropriate to use it to ridicule Miaoyu's arrogance and prejudice.
Miaoyu frowned, her appearance suddenly changed, she looked at the young man in shock, and was speechless for a moment.
She understood Huineng's words, but she didn't expect this young and powerful man to know much.
No, this person always calls her Shitai, it's just... so unreasonable.
Xichun's bright eyes flashed with surprise, and she said with joy in her voice: "Brother Heng, do you understand Buddhism?"
Jia Heng smiled and said: "Sister Xichun, I don't know anything about Buddhism, but I...pass that Buddha is the Tao."
In his previous life, he meditated and read the Taoist Canon and made inferences by analogy. He could only have a partial understanding of the Buddhist scriptures.
Miaoyu's face was serene and elegant, and her expression suddenly changed when she heard the words. She stared at Jia Heng, as if seeing a heresy, she pursed her thin lips and said, "Uncle Heng, what do you mean by saying that Buddha is the Tao?"
Jia Heng said: "This way is not the other way. The way is the law. The way of heaven is natural and all laws are unified. Doesn't Master Miaoyu also love the learning of Lao and Zhuang? How could you not know?"
As far as he knew, Miaoyu was not a simple nun. She had a noble character. Although she was a nun, she loved the teachings of Zhuangzi.
Otherwise, one would not think that Baoyu, who was interested in learning from Zhuangzi, had a good temperament.
In A Dream of Red Mansions, the nun sent by Fu Shi to observe Baoyu mentioned that Baoyu often talked to flowers and plants. Of course, if you hear flowers and plants talking to you, it is a symptom of mental illness.
, is somewhat addicted to Zhuangzi's strange and strange learning.
Just when Jia Heng was thinking about whether to give Miao Yu a lecture about the Great Desolate River and brainwash her.
But he saw that the expression of Miaoyu's jade face changed, showing a bit of solemnity and beauty. He stood up, looked at Jia Heng, put his palms together, and said: "If you want to practice, you can do it at home. You can't help but be in the temple. It's a poor nun."
I’m in good shape.”
This is also the words of Huineng.
Or he moved too quickly or stood up too fiercely. Maybe the monk's robe is wide, his figure is graceful, and the inside is not tightly bound...
Jia Heng looked at the young girl who grew up on a meager diet and had no need to speak of poverty. She was silent for a moment, her voice was as clear as a jade chime, and she smiled and said: "I was just doing something in my class, Miss Miaoyu, there is no need to be so serious about her."
thing."
Although Fang Cai is a sharp-edged figure, he is actually a talker, while Miaoyu has an aloof and arrogant temperament, but she still has character.
It's just that arrogance hides the heart, and the heart is not convinced.
Miaoyu listened to the cold words of the young man opposite her, and her originally calm heart could not help but ripple slightly, and a faint blush quietly appeared on her cheeks because of her embarrassment.
Just before she said, "You can get it at home," so this person changed her title to "Master Tai" and changed her title to... girl.
simply……
There is a needle hidden in the cotton, what a fierce person.
Miaoyu was distracted for a moment, feeling both the embarrassment of being offended and the unspeakable joy.
In fact, in the original Dream of Red Mansions, Miaoyu posted a message to Baoyu, claiming to be an outsider, and then Baoyu was confused. It was Xing Xiuyan who prompted Baoyu and asked Baoyu to call himself an insider.
To be a lifelong confidant.
But at this time, Jia Heng unintentionally did the opposite, which was more teasing.
Master, I see that your six roots are impure and your love is not over.
That's roughly it.
But as soon as Miaoyu telegraphed, she felt that the eyes of the young man opposite him were clear and sharp, and there was no intention of teasing. Instead, it was more like a reply and a discussion, but his attitude was always a bit offensive.
Therefore, I feel that Jia Heng has a needle hidden in his cotton wool and speaks sharply.
This is a complex feeling of "offense" mixed with "confidant".
Well, it feels a little strange.
But unique and completely different from others.
Xichun was quietly listening to the conversation between the young man and Miaoyu beside him, his bright eyes twinkling as he looked at the man who was talking and laughing freely, and an indescribable feeling of joy welled up.
This cold-spoken little loli likes Buddhism, which is more of a sustenance when she is sad and lonely, and her mind is empty. At this moment, Xichun has not yet had the desire to escape into Buddhism.
Of course, because of my background, my interest in Buddhism may not be false, so I was even more surprised.
Jia Heng had a heated exchange with Miaoyu, then turned to look at Xichun gently and said in a warm voice: "Okay, the food is getting cold. Sister Xichun and Miaoyu are both going to eat first."
No matter whether you are a Buddha or a Taoist, you must always eat."
Later, Buddhists did not care about production, and Taoists relied on self-reliance... There was still no need to stimulate Miaoyu.
"Yes, Brother Heng." Xichun responded, picking up the bamboo chopsticks with his little hands and lowering his head to use the food.
However, perhaps because Jia Heng was by her side, the arrogant little loli also became more docile.
Jia Heng took the fragrant tea that was handed to him from the side of the painting, and took a leisurely time to sip the fragrant tea, with a peaceful look on his face and thoughtful eyes.
Miaoyu also picked up the bamboo chopsticks and began to use the food, but she glanced at Jia Heng from time to time with cold eyes, and saw Xiao Xuan, the young man opposite, lifting his hands lightly with a clear look.
Miaoyu frowned and sewed, and she couldn't help but secretly thought in her heart, the young man is handsome and has an unparalleled charm.
Of course, her act of showing weakness just now was not because she was convinced, but because her status as a monk did not allow her to mess around after she was defeated by her words.
Jia Heng was sipping the fragrant tea, and when he saw Miaoyu peeking at him, he gently put down the teacup and looked at Miaoyu leisurely.
Instead, Miaoyu's scorching gaze made her feel flustered and secretly ashamed.
Jia Heng narrowed his eyes, picked up the tea cup again, and lowered his head to sip the tea.
His general evaluation of Miaoyu was that he was young, pretentious, aloof, and unreasonable.
Being able to make Li Wan say the word "disgusting" shows that he has a perverse temperament and is intolerant of the world.
This means that people who are too high will be more jealous, and people who are too clean will be resentful.
In the original Dream of Red Mansions, when Cui Cui'an tastes tea, the difference between snow water, dew water and rain water even mocks Daiyu who doesn't know what's going on.
It can only be said that Miaoyu has never drunk distilled water. This is pure water, which is much cleaner than rainwater that has absorbed various dust particles.
Seeing Xichun using the food, Jia Heng put down the tea cup and said, "Fourth sister, forget it for today. You will have dinner with me tomorrow. You can't eat these vegetarian dishes anymore."
"Yeah." Xichun responded softly, feeling a warm feeling in her heart.
Jia Heng smiled again and said: "Today I taught you Sister Tanchun and Sister Yun how to ride horses. If you want to learn, I will teach you in two days. I bought three ponies. One of them was originally bought for you."
Hearing this, Xichun paused slightly with the chopsticks in her hands, and the vegetables she picked up fell into the bowl. Her bright eyes under her thin eyebrows were filled with brilliance.
The original one was bought for her, bought for her...
Jia Heng said: "Aren't you learning painting recently? In addition to painting figures, you can also learn to paint horses."
I am reminded of Xu Beihong, a famous horse painter in his previous life, who painted the postures of various horses so vividly on the paper.
Xichun said "hmm" and said softly: "Brother Heng, I'll watch and learn from you."
After that, Jia Heng stopped talking and drank tea while looking at the dancing candlelight in silence.
After a while, Xichun put down her bamboo chopsticks and said softly: "It's ready."
Jia Heng turned his eyes and looked at the rice grains in the corner of the proud little loli's mouth, took a handkerchief and said: "Wipe the rice grains in the corners of your mouth."
Xichun panicked when he heard this, and without waiting for Jia Heng to make a move, he quickly reached out to take the handkerchief, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Thank you...Brother Heng."
Miaoyu, who was sitting across from her, couldn't help but curled her lips when she saw the affectionate gestures between the brother and sister. For some reason, she was so happy with the promise, but suddenly... she became dissatisfied with the food.
