"… …" Ye Cang was speechless. What?! That's it?! I don't even know what that means, and you know it?! Looking at Eliza's passionate eyes, Ye Cang clasped his hands together and nodded, "That's right. That's it … Miss, you're very wise, Amitayus … "
Eliza quickly followed suit and bowed back, "I hope Master can accept me as your disciple. I'll definitely spread the good news that benefits the world …"
"You really want to become a Buddhist … no regrets." Ye Cang took out a utility knife and pushed it with a solemn expression on his face.
"What's this?" Eliza saw Ye Cang taking out the utility knife and signalling her to come down.
"I'm going to shave your head …" Ye Cang asked Eliza to sit down with her hands clasped together.
Eliza saw Ye Cang holding up her long hair and hesitated. Ye Cang let go of his hand, "You still can't bear to part with the Three Thousand Strands of Troubles? Fine then … "
"I'm ignorant. Master, please shave my head for me." Eliza was enlightened and closed her eyes. Ye Cang really wanted to stab her to death and gain a huge amount of Slaughter Points. However, if she was found out, she would definitely die. Hence, she had no choice but to shave her head properly. Luckily, Eliza did not know how important shave was and Ye Cang had seen it before in the Zen Lotus Sect in the city beside Lin Hai. I remember when I was young, my grandmother brought me to burn incense and drew lots. The person who drew the lot said that he did not dare to do it because he was afraid of being condemned by the heavens. Until my grandmother asked me to give him 1000 federal coins.
Her golden hair kept falling down. Eliza felt a sense of enlightenment. She understood that this was a ritual. Perhaps the purpose of this ritual was to cut off all troubles? Physical? But it must have a purpose.
It must have a purpose.
Ye Cang answers for her. He does know, "You may not understand the meaning of this ritual. In Buddhism, hair represents countless troubles and bad habits in the human world. Shaving off your hair means that you have removed them. At least you have the courage to try to cut them off. Shaving off your hair also means that you have cut off your pride and neglect, get rid of your worries, and focus on cultivation. As a woman, don't you care about your hair? Originally, there would still be scars after shaving, but this is harmful to the body. Moreover, this is not the original intention of the Buddha. It is only for the believers to show that they have received the precepts. It is not very important. "
"Master, please accept my precepts after the tonsure."
"Alright then, but you're only barely able to accept the first scar, 'Clear Heart'."
"You may have to rely on yourself for the rest of the precepts. When you understand a new Zen, you can accept the precepts yourself."
At this moment, the people from the Purple Flower Garden started to retreat. Eliza could feel that the military was about to enter. She was anxious. Ye Cang recalled the time when he was shaving at the Zen Lotus Sect. The man's wife was holding a kitchen knife and chopping up the mountain. She was so calm even when the knife was in front of her. She did not even tremble as she continued to shave the man's head.
"Master, what do you mean by 'the four elements are empty' and 'the six elements are pure' …" Eliza calmed down and started to learn. She was eager to know everything about Buddhism.
"In the Buddhist language, it refers to what you've just comprehended. Everything is empty. The six roots refer to the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind." Ye Cang only knew this point. He could not go any deeper.
"I understand, master …" Eliza felt ashamed of her impure six elements.
"The tonsure is not complete yet. You can't call me master yet."
Suddenly, a loud bang was heard. The people from the Purple Flower Garden who were fighting hard were pushed back. They looked at Eliza who was being shaved from afar. "President!"
"Have you calmed down?" Ye Cang did not stop moving the knife in his hand.
"Yes."
"Protect them. I'll continue to finish the last three cuts for you."
"Yes, master."
In an instant, the thunder and lightning made the senior colonel and the rest feel uncomfortable. After Eliza was done with the tonsure, Ye Cang crushed the wood with his telekinesis and lit it up. He blew it out and put it on Eliza. She did not even frown as if she was sincerely feeling the painful blessing, the precepts that were called 'pure heart'. She opened her eyes and thanked sincerely, "Master, thank you."
Ye Cang floated in the air with his legs crossed. He clasped his hands together and said, "Go. Follow me to get the scriptures."
"Get the scriptures?"
"I've been reincarnated here. I've lost a lot of my memories, especially those related to scriptures. It should be a trial for me. I need to complete some training … "
"Oh, what are the scriptures?"
"Those are the insights and understanding of Buddha recorded by the supreme monks when they were transcending. For example, I'll copy the Diamond Sutra for you later … "
"I understand, master." Eliza copied Ye Cang's action (referring to Zentaya from the Watchers) and started to absorb the power of the Source Force Messenger to counterattack.
"Don't kill for no reason." Ye Cang initially wanted to kill her quickly but he had to act properly. "But to those who have sinned, you should punish them with the wrath of thunder. Show your wrath to warn all living beings …"
Ye Cang looked at Eliza who left and sat on the ground. Finally, I managed to fool her. He opened the virtual screen and looked at the Diamond Sutra. He still has to give her some points later. "That's so troublesome. I'll just copy it for her."
The audience was in an uproar.
"Wow, Acting Emperor is Acting Emperor after all. Luckily, there's no such thing as Buddhism in this world. He made this girl enter the dream world with some religious theories from the macroscopic world. "Brother Zhao exclaimed.
"I'm more concerned about the scriptures. This guy is obviously trying to lure her into his trap and then use these scriptures to trick her into becoming his escort. "Brother Zhong smiled bitterly.
"Actually, Buddhism is really profound," Zóyí said in a serious tone.
"Are you talking about how powerful Buddhism is in front of someone who has a Taoist temple like me? Little girl, are you trying to start a war?! Just look at the 'four elements are empty' that he used just now. The explanation in Buddhism is not as accurate as the answer in Taoism. The Tao Te Ching states that the four elements are empty. Therefore, Taoism is big, heaven is big, earth is big, and man is big too. In Buddhism, there are four major forces, earth, water, fire, and wind. Although these are just general terms, the Buddhism in China is still a foreign school. There are many imitations everywhere. Even the knocking of the wooden fish is copied by us … "Zhang Wuji thought. It's a blatant infringement of copyright! If I had copyright awareness, I would've sued them! "Brother Zhong's words made Zóyí feel awkward." Err, I'm wrong. "
Everyone in the Purple Flower Garden looked at the 'reborn' Eliza. She did not have any hair but her eyes were filled with peace and serenity. She controlled the elemental force to defeat the people from the military. Eliza ordered everyone to imprison them and then flew back to Ye Cang. She saw him using his telekinesis to write the scriptures. She came to the front of the book and read it. The more she read, the more shocked she was. "Where does the cloud stay? How does the cloud subdue its heart?
