The Buddhist precepts are numerous, but which one specifically states that one cannot be close to others?
With a thoughtful expression, he sincerely exclaimed, "Everyone says I have a deep affinity for Buddhism, but, junior brother, I am not as good as you!"
I have devoted twenty years to studying Buddhism, yet I cannot compare to your three months of study.
Junior brother, you are the one with the deepest affinity for Buddhism!
Liao Kong let out a cold laugh, "Senior brother, this isn't a matter of how deep one's affinity with Buddhism is..."
Your upbringing was too simple. I heard that you've never been down the mountain in the past twenty years.
So, senior brother, you've long been out of touch with this world.
This world is far more complex and difficult than you can imagine...
In the environment I lived in, everyone spoke to people in a way that suited them, and to ghosts in a way that suited them.
It's so easy to say a few words to fool someone like you.
Just like before, I was only joking with you, and you took it seriously and completely elevated it to the level of Buddhism and Buddhist affinity.
This is really…
Upon hearing this, Liao Wuwei was taken aback. "You were just... joking with me?"
Liao Kong's eyes curved into a smile as she glanced at him gently. "Yes, all these years, has no one ever joked with you before?"
He nodded blankly, "Yes."
"No wonder."
As he spoke, Liao Kong walked out of the kitchen.
Liao Wu followed behind him, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Liao Kong smiled and turned around, "Senior brother, is there something you want to ask?"
Liao Wu looked at him with difficulty, "Junior brother, what is the world like down the mountain?"
Why do you always seem so heartbroken when you talk about it?
Liao Kong was taken aback, but no one had ever told him that he felt sad.
Even his parents once remarked that he was a man who would never grieve.
However, since humans are born with all seven emotions and six desires, how could he not feel sadness?
It's just that... no one has ever noticed it...
Facing this person who had seen through his true self for the first time, Liao Kong felt the urge to confide in him for the first time.
He walked ahead and led Liaowu to sit at the bluestone table outside the temple.
"Senior brother, the world down the mountain is vast and complex."
Therefore, I cannot fully explain the overall situation to you on my own.
However, I can tell you what I've seen over the years.
The world down the mountain has become a living hell!
Upon hearing this, Liao Wuxin was greatly shocked. "How could it have come to this?"
Liao Kong chuckled, "Then why do all the people here tell you that you will be walking in the world and averting disasters in the future?"
"If the situation down the mountain hadn't reached a point of no return, why would anyone keep saying things like that?"
Liao Wu was stunned. Indeed, he had heard such words almost every day since he was a child.
Everyone was telling him that he was a master of Buddhism and that he was destined to descend the mountain and travel the world to bring hope to all people.
But no one ever told him why...
