Gu Liubai had already sensed it at this time that no matter whether the bald monk was the Venerable of Nilian back then, his spiritual power was very strange, and his spiritual power seemed to be integrated into his spirit.
Although this doesn't feel like a body-taking, it doesn't feel like parasitic.
It is impossible to capture, but it is more like someone using his mental power to influence some of his consciousness.
"There are only those who force good men to become prostitutes, and those who force people to argue for their scriptures?" Gu Liubai still ignored the bald monk's question and asked, "I am a businessman. I have to think about the benefits of doing anything. What are the benefits of my argument with you?"
"A thought becomes a Buddha, a thought becomes a demon." The bald monk smiled again. His face originally looked gentle and elegant, but at this time he was half compassionate and half hideous and terrifying. "I am not forcing you. You are as ignorant as everyone in the world, but you are born to receive luck. In your thoughts, many people may be born because of you, or countless people may die because of you. You can walk here and appear in front of me, because you are destined to be with my Buddha, but you don't understand it very much now."
Gu Liubai looked at the bald monk and frowned, "I am a commoner. Since you say I am ignorant, then you should say something I can understand. For example, now, if I just don't argue with you, what will happen? I've always been entangled with you and fell into the Dharma Hall you created?"
The bald monk calmed down his smile and said seriously, "Donor, the entire Famen Temple is my temple. The Buddhist Ganoderma lucidum is good for everyone who has just been in the Famen Temple. But if I become a demon in one thought, the Ganoderma lucidum medicinal power will instantly turn into the most poisonous poison in the world."
Gu Liubai frowned and said, "The medicinal power has already acted on the true qi, and it can still be transformed? I don't believe it!"
The bald monk said seriously, "You are stupid. People in the world think that something is good or bad for themselves. In fact, it is not that thing itself is good or bad, but it comes from the heart. One thing is good, but a person thinks that something is bad and that thing is bad. You are obviously not in the water, but you think that you are sinking in the water now and you will drown. You can't resist my supernatural powers. Do you think those people in this temple will die?"
Gu Liubai sneered, "Then why do you have to argue?"
The bald monk said: "Disputation is one of the ways to realize the truth. Listening to other people's opinions and refuting with one's own cognition may break one's own inherent cognition. For me, if one cannot realize the truth and cannot enlighten oneself, one will become a demon."
Gu Liubai is probably one of the people who talked with Master Xuanqing the most in the world. He had already adapted to the conversation with Master Xuanqing. At this time, listening to the bald monk's words, he suddenly heard some clues from it, "You have doubts about the Buddhism you have practiced and yourself, and you need to use the method of debate to get enlightenment? Otherwise, your spirit will be entangled in this and cannot be eliminated, and you will become an evil demon?"
The bald monk exclaimed, "You are indeed destined to be with me, and you have wisdom."
After a pause, the bald monk said, "If you help me, you will help yourself."
Gu Liubai said, "Is there a more straightforward way, such as directly destroying you, and it's fine if you can't figure it out."
The bald monk was not angry, but found it interesting. He laughed and said, "I have tried to destroy myself and want to die with my demons. But over the years, my spirit has been immortal. If there is a way to eliminate it so simply, I don't need to argue with you."
Gu Liubai frowned and said, "What kind of ghost method have you practiced? I'm so energetic?"
The bald monk said: "Milk lotus, mud lotus, withering and flourishing every year, lotus grows in summer, and lotus becomes lotus in winter. Logically speaking, after my body collapses, I will be reborn in the Buddha's kingdom, and if I can't cross the other shore, I will reincarnate in the human world. However, I have doubts about myself and it is difficult to enter the cycle of reincarnation."
Gu Liubai said, "According to your statement, the reincarnation and rebirth of the Buddha Sect is not false?"
The bald monk smiled and said, "As far as I know, there are three types of people in the Buddhist sect. One is that they have not much cultivation and deceive the world and steal the reputation. One is that they have reached a certain level of cultivation but cannot truly transcend, and they still feel that they are personal. If such a person has a strong enough cultivation, they can maintain a certain memory and cultivation as you said, and enter the samsara. Another is true transcendence, they feel that they are no longer human, or that they can be anyone, and they can belong to all things in the world."
Gu Liubai's heart moved and said, "So your cultivation is actually at the moment of true transcendence. You can step out and reach the other side you mentioned, truly escape from any suffering, become sentient beings or transcend sentient beings. But at this moment, you have doubts about what you have cultivated and about yourself. You doubt whether you will become a Buddha or a demon after taking this step."
The bald monk exclaimed, "You are not stupid, you already have great wisdom."
Gu Liubai fell silent.
He felt that it would be better to believe in Master Xuanqing than to believe in him.
For some reason, he now had a very strange feeling. The battle between the Buddhist sect in the Western Regions and the Buddhist sect in the Middle Land caused the fall of his mother, Guo Beixi and Liang Fengning, and others was not the beginning, and the debate at this time was not the end.
"Then the young man, the problem before I returned to me." The bald monk looked at him and said seriously, "If you kill one person, you can save tens of millions of people. Is this person not going to kill?"
Gu Liubai also looked at him seriously and said, "Don't call me a young man, please call me the head of the Datang Taoist Gu Liubai. I am the son of Shen Qiqi, the former Taoist son of Wuming Temple, and the disciple of Guo Beixi, the Canglang Sword Sect and Liang Fengning, the border army of the Tang Dynasty."
The bald monk smiled and bowed, saying, "Gu Daosheng asked."
Gu Liubai said, "Killing one person can save millions of people. Is the person you want to kill a good person, or is it a good person?"
The bald monk said, "If it is the most difficult to understand, this person is a good person and the person closest to you, and those tens of millions of people have good people and bad people, but they are not familiar with you."
Gu Liubai said calmly, "Whoever uses these millions of people to threaten me and force me to kill that person to save people, I will kill whoever I want."
The bald monk frowned slightly and fell into deep thought for a moment.
Gu Liubai sneered, "There are injustice and debts. Whoever conspires and tricks cause such a situation, will I kill whom I will kill?"
The bald monk seemed to have some insight. He looked at Gu Liubai and said, "Then all the complicated possibilities are thrown away. Simply put, it is like a person escorting a person you love and walking up to you with millions of people at the same time. You kill this person who escorts these people first, but if you kill him, you still have to face such a choice. If you kill the person you love, you can let the millions of people live. Will you kill them?"
Gu Liubai glanced at the bald monk and said, "Am I a fool or you a fool? What does millions of people have to do with me? I'm fine to kill my favorite love for life?"
The bald monk was stunned.
Then he frowned slightly and said, "That's tens of millions of lives, and the people inside have their own love..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Liubai, "Human life is human life. Who told you that the lives of ten thousand people are more important than the lives of one person? In my opinion, the life of my beloved in this life is more important than my own life. What should I do if I kill her? Also, whose life is not life, I don't know how many nests of ants. If someone takes a nest of ants and leads another person to you, and then says that you don't kill that person, then burn all the nests of ants to death. If you don't burn the ants, do you kill people?"
The bald monk was stunned again.
He frowned even deeper and said, "Can we empathize with each other. You will not feel pity when you see countless people die in desolately?"
Gu Liubai said, "How could he not feel pity? But because of the poor people, they will kill the person I love the most. What the hell is this? The evil that others do, should I take responsibility for the person I love the most?"
The bald monk said, "The corpse is covered with blood, and blood flows into a river. Countless people die because of this. Will you feel guilty when you look at this scene for the rest of your life?"
"It is also a guilty person who does evil. What do I feel guilty about? I and the one I love most are flying together, and I don't know how happy it is." Gu Liubai smiled, "If you don't need to pay the life of the person I love the most, those people can save me, but I can't save me. Should I save me? Use the head of the person I love the most? My head is broken?"
The bald monk seemed to be increasingly unable to agree with it. He felt that Gu Liubai had no compassion.
But Gu Liubai looked at him and said contemptuously, "Who told you that someone else's life must be saved?"
"Have the ability but not do it?" said the bald monk looking at him.
Gu Liubai smiled.
He looked at the bald monk and said with a smile, "My mother told me when she was a child that there were more beautiful girls in the world, but the beautiful girls in the world were married by capable people. My mother said that as long as I had the ability, I could marry beautiful girls in the future. She made me obedient, endure hardships, and practice obediently. But she also told me a reason. Even if there are capable people, it is impossible to marry all the beautiful girls in the world, and it is impossible to let all the beautiful girls like you. There are more capable people in the world, so why do I have to use the head of the person I love the most to save others' lives? Other capable people cannot help me, and don't let me face this situation. If I don't save millions of people, others cannot save them?"
The bald monk's body suddenly shook.
He seemed to have figured out something.
Gu Liubai didn't have enough fun. He looked at the bald monk and sneered, "And who told you to care about those idiots that you can't control? Because you want to become a Buddha, you think that the Buddha must have enough compassion, so you must save people? You have to save even if you don't have the conditions, so you fall into this entanglement. But the Buddha told you that you should give up one person to save millions of people in this situation? And you think you have the ability, you can do this, but if you can't even protect the person you love the most, is this called having the ability? There are countless people in this world. No matter how powerful a person is, can you manage all the idiots?"
The bald monk was stunned and murmured to himself, "I want to become a Buddha, so I fell into this kind of entanglement, but because of this, I became entangled, but I suspected that what I was practicing was not a Buddha, but a demon. I felt compassion was not wrong, but sacrificing one person to save tens of millions of people seemed to be wrong. In fact, I thought it was wrong to think it was wrong from the beginning. In fact, the Buddha might not think this was compassionate..."
Gu Liubai felt a little annoyed when he looked at his appearance. He said contemptuously, "My mother is so powerful, and she doesn't think that one person can solve all the problems. She has thought of many ways, has attracted many helpers, and has poached Brother Huo Luo, and has disintegrated the Buddhist sect of the Western Regions from the inside. Master Xuanqing is so powerful that he does not interfere in the secular world and does not care about other people's business. If you care about this cause and effect, how can you know that you will not involve more cause and effect? ​​If you kill the person you love the most and save others, how do you know that you will not regret it in the future, and will not be psychologically distorted and become a demon?"
