Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, cause is the origin, and effect is the actual state of evolution. There's also an ethereal fate involved.

The cause and effect can be put forward by the Buddhists, but what they really care about is a monk like Fahai whose cultivation level is not very high. Because fate and cause and effect can be changed, just like that one person and two demons. The mighty move their hands, and everything will become a pawn that can be manipulated at will.

Fahai's cultivation is far from the extent of changing his life against the sky or manipulating the fate of others. Therefore, he cares about cause and effect very much, and he also hopes to cut off the last obsession in his heart through cause and effect, and from then on reach the psychological realm of "all emptiness", so that his stagnant cultivation can continue to move forward, and finally cross the calamity into the Western Heavens.

"Lord Wang, the poor monk began to practice 1,600 years ago. After going through hardships, I finally realized the Dharma and peeked into the doorway. Maybe it's providence too. The poor monk never thought that the obsession that had entangled the poor monk for more than a thousand years would be planted in the poor monk's previous life. ”

Fahai said slowly, and it seemed that he had also fallen into memory.

It is naturally not normal for a senior monk to be able to reveal his heart like this, and the means that Xue Wushu secretly used on the side are the main inducements. However, Fahai's self-description did give Xue Wusuan a clear answer to the doubts in his heart.

Fahai's previous life was a snake catcher, and this is how he and Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian came from in their previous lives. The snake catcher naturally wanted to kill the snake, but at that time, Bai Suzhen was able to hide from her wisdom and was caught. Coincidentally, I happened to meet the cowherd baby Xu Xian passing by and saved the white snake, but it also buried trouble.

At that time, Xu Xian, a cattle herder, and Fahai, a snake catcher, did not expect that the snake that escaped would record this grievance and never forget it for thousands of years.

Xu Xian was later reincarnated. And Fahai embarked on the path of cultivation after he turned around for a lifetime. Although I went through many hardships, it was generally smooth sailing. Even because of his talent and diligence, he was appreciated by a Bodhisattva in the West Heaven and was accepted into the door. In this way, Fahai was even more excited, knowing that he had already obtained a ticket to enter the West Heaven in advance.

But the cause and effect of past lives will always come.

One day, Fahai, who was cultivating in the mountains, suddenly felt a vast force appear in his cave, so he stopped practicing and opened his eyes to see that it was actually a heavenly general.

This day will say, saying that Heavenly Court feels Fahai's diligent cultivation and thinks that he is a talent, and specially gives him six elixirs, each of which can allow Fahai to obtain a hundred years of pure mana, hoping that he can cultivate to perfection as soon as possible, and walk the world for Heavenly Court to subdue demons and eliminate demons and support justice.

And Fahai didn't think there was anything wrong, Xitian appreciated his talent, and it was normal for Heavenly Court to come and woo him. Moreover, the elixir is a real product, and it cannot be refined in the mortal world at all, which is very rare. Six can save him 600 years of penance, how cheap is that? So Fahai accepted it with a thousand thanks and sent this heavenly general away.

But when Fahai returned to the cave and was about to enjoy his elixir, he found that there was an uninvited guest in the cave. It was a snake demon that had taken on human form.

When Fahai found the snake demon, he happened to see that all the elixirs he had just obtained had entered the other party's womb. This change directly blew up Fahai's lungs.

If you want to take revenge, the cultivation of the snake demon is one line higher than herself, and although she has not fully digested it after eating his elixir, her mana has also grown a lot. In this way, how could he help the other party? He could only watch the other party eat and wipe away.

And before leaving, the snake demon also named himself to take revenge. This is what stole Fahai's elixir for. And this hatred, Fahai has cultivated to this realm and can trace the antecedents, so he understands that this demon is the white snake he almost killed in his previous life.

600 years! It could have been completed 600 years in advance, but now it has become a flower in the mirror. The feeling of gaining and losing, plus the reason is actually from his own past life. This made Fahai's heart unbearable. Furious, he swore on the spot that he would find the white snake to avenge this. So the obsession went on like this.

After Fahai finished speaking, Xue Wushu vaguely remembered some fragments from when he watched the series before. It was an episode that he basically didn't remember anymore.

understood the cause and effect, Xue Wushu was also secretly speechless. Xindao: In this way, it seems that this Fahai is already benevolent. Bai Suzhen's goods are also self-inflicted calamity, taking away the opportunity, which is not much different from killing parents. What's more, Fahai was an ordinary monk at that time, and six hundred years was not a small time, which could be regarded as a great opportunity. Seeing that it was taken away, it was strange not to go crazy.

"Monk, leave your obsession to you to cut it off yourself, and I won't interfere. I have a question, though. Are you sure that it was the Heavenly Lord's Heavenly General who sent you the elixir in the first place, not some Arhat from the Western Heaven?"

Fahai was slightly stunned, nodded and said, "How can a poor monk remember this kind of thing." Although the elixir was taken away, the poor monk was still grateful for the great kindness of the heavenly court to the poor monk and did not dare to forget it. ”

"Then if you achieve perfection in the future, will you prepare to enter the Heavenly Court or the Western Heaven?"

"The poor monk is practicing Buddhism, so naturally he wants to go to the western heavens. Heaven controls the world, and the poor monk is grateful for his great grace, and he will repay this kindness by walking more in the world and doing more good deeds in the future. What, does the prince think there's something wrong?"

Xue Wushu laughed and waved his hand repeatedly. But there is a conclusion in my heart.

Judging from Fahai's recollections, both Heavenly Court and Western Heaven were once courting him. Xitian moved faster and sent a bodhisattva to accept Fahai as an apprentice. And Heavenly Court moved slower, rewarding six rare elixirs. In this, Fahai believes that it is his talent that is worthy of being won over by the two forces. But is that really the case?

Bullshit!

Fahai was self-righteous, but Xue Wushu wouldn't think so. There are thousands of monks in the world, and whether they are talented or not, they all need to be sealed under the Heavenly Tribulation. Who cared if you cultivated fast or slow before the Heavenly Tribulation? And as far as Xue Wusuan understood, for mortals, the faster you cultivated, it wasn't necessarily a good thing. Because you practice too fast, it is easy for your state of mind to not keep up. Once the catastrophe comes, it will be the end of the ashes.

Therefore, Fahey's belief that he was only co-opted by the two forces because of his extraordinary talent is extremely ridiculous. However, Xue Wushu naturally wouldn't help him point it out. The involvement of this monk seems to be as expected before, not small.

The two great forces threw an olive branch to Fahai thousands of years ago, and there must be a sense of contention. It's just that he didn't tear his face and rob it, but made his own move to let Fahai make his own decision. And the result was that Fahai chose the West Heaven, and Heavenly Court took out six elixirs for nothing, but in the end they fed the snake.

Moreover, Bai Suzhen's timing of stealing the Fahai elixir back then was really a coincidence. If you don't come early or late, you just got stuck in the elixir, and Fahai went to see off the heavenly generals at this juncture. It's strange that there is no article in it.

This series of veins was slowly straightened out in Xue Wusuan's heart. A huge chessboard spanning nearly two thousand years and involving the Heavenly Court, the Western Heavens, and the Mortal World was also built in his heart.

After pondering for a long time, Xue Wushu had to say "admiration" to the Western Heavenly Power. In terms of blackness, shamelessness, ruthlessness, and thief nature, Heavenly Court is really completely incomparable in front of the West Heaven.

Bidding farewell to Fahai, Xue Wusuan dodged and returned to Yinyang Street. Sitting cross-legged, his mind calm, he needed to think carefully about whether this game of chess could make more benefits from it.
