Chapter 166: River

The owner of the kingdom of bliss is one person.
Then why does the old abbot say that it is sentient beings?
Xiao Shao's gaze was thoughtful, saying, "Thank you abbot."
The old abbot bowed down and said, "The donor, you're welcome."
Xiao Shao said: "Abbot, why worship two-faced Buddha?"
The abbot did not speak, his expression still kind.
Lin Shu knew that this question was beyond the scope of the abbot's answer.
Previously, they stopped the old man on the road and asked who the owner of the kingdom of bliss was. The old man did not give any meaningful answer, and the abbot gave it, indicating that the abbot's mind is clearer and he has some understanding of the world.
When asked "Why is a two-sided Buddha", the abbot could not answer.
Why is enshrining a two-faced Buddha a more difficult question to answer than "who is the owner of a land of bliss"?
The abbot did not answer, and the matter fell into a deadlock again. Xiao Shao used the spiritual power to urge the Buddha statue to make it slowly rotate.
The past Buddha and the future Buddha alternately appear in the rotation. The solemn and silent expression, the palms pushed forward, and the eyes squinting in the middle of the face all reveal some kind of unspeakable secret.
In the process, Xiao Shao suddenly spoke.
"Abbot," he said, "where is the Buddha now?"
The past, present, and future buddhas are the "three buddhas" of the Buddhist family. They often appear together in the sutras. However, this temple only worships the two-sided buddha where the past buddha and the future buddha are united. There may be some problems.
The abbot's tone remained kind: "The Buddha is now among beings, and there is no need to worship it."
Xiao Shao frowned, as if thinking about the mystery in this sentence.
He stopped.
The Buddha image just turned to the past Buddha side, and the eyes in the pupil looked down, as if looking straight at the three people in the temple.
Xiao Shao stared at it.
The strange silence flowed in the temple.
A trembling meow broke the silence.
Lin Shu and Xiao Shao looked at the cats who were sitting in the corner, and never came out.
Obviously, cats are afraid of Buddha statues.
Therefore, it can be proved that the Buddha statue is the core of this world.
"Senior," Xiao Shao said in a coaxing tone: "If we can't leave this world, you will never have food outside."
The cat tilted its head.
Xiao Shao continued: "Not only that, it can't take off."
The cat's ears moved.
Although its body is still honestly curled up in the corner, the slightly turning green pupil has leaked the shaking of its heart.
Xiao Shao's voice slowed down: "Good, go out and grill you bamboo rat."
The cat's ears moved again.
Lin Shu thought, sweet words, really useful.
The cat stood up.
The cat stepped forward.
The cat trembled towards the statue and reached the base of the statue.
But it didn't stop, but jumped slightly, and landed in the lotus seat where the Buddha statue sits.
In the nine-petal golden lotus, the cat shook for a while.
Then it climbed up again, onto the knee of the future Buddha, and then jumped on the arm of the statue.
Arm straight forward, palm out.
Then, a black, fluffy cat's claw rested on the palm of the Buddha's push.
This action seems to be forming a mysterious Buddha seal, and the action of looking at the cat seems to suggest that there is a mystery on the palm of the hand.
Xiao Shao stepped forward, observing the palm of the Buddha's statue, and his eyes were full of thought.
Lin Shu also looked at the palm of the hand.
There is a faint mark on the palm, and it is also the shape of an eye looking down.
Eyes are actually a very strange thing. They are not terrifying only when they appear in pairs on a person's face.
In any other situation, the shape of a single eye is somewhat mysterious or even unknown.
Xiao Shao gently touched the eyes on that palm.
Putting down his hand, he frowned slightly.
Lin Shu: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Shao said: "There is a ... very special feeling."
Having said that, he slowly extended his right hand and offset his palm with the palm of the Buddha!
Lin Shu opened his eyes wide.
At that moment, he felt an indescribable ripple in the air!
It is a very, very special feeling.
As if inside the entire world, there was a slight change, like a huge machine, the gears started to run in different directions.
Xiao Shao closed his eyes, Lin Shu called him a few times, but did not respond.
The cat was caught on the arm of the Buddha statue, and he was also paying close attention to Xiao Shao. Since Lin Shu encountered it, this lazy animal showed the sharp claws like a small crescent moon for the first time, and it seemed to be ready to take Xiao Shao Scratching.
Lin Shu looked at a incense stick in the incense stick.
When the incense burned out, Xiao Shao opened his eyes sharply!
His eyes were dark and deep at this time, as if with endless chaos. After a while, this feeling gradually dissipated, and everything returned to normal.
Lin Shu: "What is it?"
Xiao Shao said: "I saw a ... scene."
After all, he seemed to be rational, looking for the right wording, but failed, saying to Lin Shu: "You come too."
Lin Shu stepped forward, and stuck the palm of his hand to the palm of his hand like Xiao Shao, just now.
The vast but invisible suction came from the palm of his hand, and his entire soul seemed to be pulled out of the body and fell into the endless abyss.
Unbearable. After the vertigo that filled the whole brain, Lin Shu found that he could see.
gray.
A piece of gray.
Up and down, it's the same scene.
In dizziness, he didn't see his own body, and he didn't know where he was. In the gray world, there was no silence.
After a while, it seemed that he had adapted to the environment here, and he was not dizzy. At the same time, the endless gray void was suddenly covered with dense, looming golden lines.
At first glance, there are endless numbers, and they are tangled and intertwined, entangled in an indescribable posture, and the lines are vaguely faint.
Although it is entangled, but after careful observation, there is an overall trend, they seem to be flowing.
It seems that a stream of light flowing forward breaks here in Lin Shu.
Moving forward is the void, so Lin Shu chose to follow the current.
He didn't know how long this journey was, he just knew that the entanglement, the golden silk thread, had been continuously reduced, and the relationship between the silk threads became simpler and no longer complicated to make people sick.
This golden river of light narrowed and narrowed in the void, only half its original width, and then came to an abrupt end.
It collapses a bit.
What exactly is this?
Lin Shu hovered over the golden light spots in the void.
As a literate person with modern physics, many professional and scientific terms flashed in his mind.
For example, very simple concept particles and origin, and then singularity.
Observation was inconclusive, and he went down the river again, moving forward, moving forward.
It seemed as if I had walked for a long time, and finally reached the end of the river. The end came to an abrupt end, and those golden silk threads tangled in the void seemed to be severed by a section!
Lin Shu lingered on the cross section, trying to see the full picture here.
Hovering.
He worked hard to adjust the angle.
Suddenly, in a special position, he suddenly became a spirit!
In this position, he saw the real cross section. Due to the limited viewing angle, the ins and outs of the golden silk threads were all hidden behind him. He saw the overwhelming, golden light spots.
The golden light dots flickered faintly, and the background was endless void. The whole scene was like the starry sky in midsummer night.
The next moment, when the sky turned around, and when he was awake again, he returned to the Buddhist temple.
Xiao Shao took a hand and stabilized his figure: "Did you see it?"
Lin Shu: "See it."
Then he eased from the dizziness and took a few breaths: "A river, many lines are flowing ... but I don't know what it means."
Xiao Shao: "I didn't figure it out."
Lin Shu was relieved.
Brother Shao didn't figure it out, so he couldn't figure it out, and it wasn't a shame.
Xiao Shao turned the statue of Buddha, facing the side of the future Buddha, and said, "Try again?"
Lin Shu nodded.
The Buddha statue is very large, so the hands are also large. Both of them can stick their palms on it at the same time.
After the same vertigo, a starry sky appeared before them.
But Lin Shu is already an experienced person. He fluttered to the side, the scene changed immediately, and it became a river composed of tangled golden silk.
At the same time, another golden light spot floated in front of him.
This world has only lines and no points, so Lin Shu estimates that this is Xiao Shao.
And his current form should also be a light spot.
He saw that light spot draw a circle towards himself.
So he flew a circle.
The spot of light flew intimately next to him.
Together they flew along the river.
fly.
Fly nonstop.
In the just space, there are fewer and fewer silk threads, and the river is narrower and narrower, but now they are flying forward, and some of the tangled golden silk threads are broken, but new threads are constantly being produced. At a slower and wider speed, the entanglement of lines becomes more and more complicated.
The entire world is flooded with golden rivers that cannot be seen on the edge.
The whole river seems to end forever and never.
Xiao Shao stopped.
Lin Shu also stopped.
Xiao Shao seemed to dispel the thought of continuing to move forward and began to circle around him.
Lin Shu also circled around Xiao Shao.
Around, he found the light spot representing Xiao Shao, dragging a faint golden trail.
He looked back and found that because of flying, he left a mark in the void.
The two traces entangled with each other and then disappeared quickly.
He suddenly paused, and Ping burst into a thunder in his head!
The brain hummed as if glimpsing a shocking secret.
If he is physical, he will tremble slightly at this time.
He remembered a word.
Jog into a line.
Jog into line!
This is not modern physics, this is mathematics.
He looked at those golden lines.
People, independent people, are a golden light spot in this space.
When this light spot moves slowly and goes forward, it is a line.
The two light spots meet, attract or repel each other, and their lines are entangled with each other and no longer parallel.
And many, many, uncountable lights dot together and move forward to become a golden river.
Suppose, say, that each light spot is a person, or an animal, or a grass, a tree.
All the light points together are the projection of the entire world, in the void.
And time flows forward, the light spot keeps advancing, and the light river is constantly flowing.
The name of the Buddha image, the past Buddha, the present Buddha, and the future Buddha, are related to time.
Then each cross section of the river, the starry sky composed of that vast spot of light, is a specific point in time, what the world looks like.
For example, when they came here, the cross section in front of them symbolized the present.
The light river flows from the past and flows into the future, and all the threads are entangled with each other, which is the world in which they live.
Then this river of light is ... a river of time.
The author has something to say: Maybe a bit abstract?
Probably similar to four-dimensional space.
When a point moves on a plane, it can only see that it is a point.
But looking down from a higher dimension, it draws a line.
People are similar in time.
I am a materialist cultivator, sand sculpture, but hardcore!
