Chapter forty-ninth is with the words

Not long after the sedan chair was carried out from the inn, Shen Rui and his party also left the inn and continued their journey.

Because the Southern Zhili is rich, it is not the year of disaster. It is the season when everything grows in spring. Even poor people can use wild vegetables to make their stomachs. They meet Lu Ya during this journey of selling children and daughters. However, there are many thieves who have caught and are simply unprepared for it. There is no shortage of idle gangsters and gangsters in the world. These people are just staring at the passers-by all day long.

In Wang Shouren's career, the old ones and the small ones are easily targeted.

I deliberately rubbed my body on the road, touched the guest room at the third update, and set up a disaster halfway through, and encountered all kinds of patterns.

Shen Rui was indifferent from the beginning to the end.

However, Wu Xuan, I wonder if he was inspired by Shen Rui's last time "requesting for money to be returned", is not only "pulling the hair by the geese", but also "not leaving a single piece of money". When he encounters those with bad attitude and vulgar appearance, he even takes off his clothes, leaving only a pair of pants.

As for the rumored thieves, they will only stare at the famous gentry and tycoons, and will not stare at a few passers-by; the crowded bandits are roaring in the deep mountains and forests, and will not come to the prosperous realm to seek death.

As for black shops and other human bags, don’t read too much. The most important thing to open an inn in one place is reputation. If you really want to get involved in a murder case, no matter how famous the inn is, it will only be closed.

As for the role of cannon fodder in the book and the playboy who loves to tease beauty, he met two more, and he really couldn't bear to say the end. Shen Rui just thought about the details in his heart and dared not mention them again. Even if he was like Wu Xuan, he knew what a forbidden zone was.

Because they were not in a hurry to rush, the group would rest for a few days when the weather was rainy. Although Zen Master Hongshan did not go to the local Zen temple to hold a list, he often visited friends to talk about Zen.

Shen Rui adapted to his life on the journey and relaxed his spirit. He often followed Master Hong Shan to listen to Zen. The Zen meditation talk about Zen was an enlightenment. However, Shen Rui thought that in the six realms of reincarnation, although he had never seen what the underworld looked like, he was indeed a human being for two lifetimes.

Is it because I became a ghost and my soul flew five hundred years ago? Or I was in my previous life, after a serious illness, I had half a lifetime of memory in my later life. Reincarnation is the doctrine of Tibetan Buddhism. Tibetan Buddhism and Zen Buddhism are of the same origin, and Shen Rui wanted to find an answer from it.

He became interested in Buddhism and did not hide it from others.

Wang Shouren was not a pedantic person, and he had talked about Buddhism and Taoism with others. It is precisely for this reason that Shen Rui felt that Wang Shouren would not interfere with his interests, but he was wrong. When Wang Shouren first learned about Buddhism and Taoism, he was already seventeen or eighteen years old. Even if he was interested in Buddhism, he could restrain himself. Shen Rui was only ten years old and his personality changed greatly due to the pain of losing his mother. Who knows what he would become if he was addicted to Buddhism? The children of the Lu family studied Buddhism more and became monks, and were many people who became lay Buddhists. However, the Lu family had a family rule that they could not learn Buddhism before they became a member, because they were afraid that their children would lose their hearts to be addicted to Buddhism. When they grow up, their minds and natures were developed and they were willing to study Buddhism, that was another matter.

Wang Shouren was worried that this was the case, afraid that Shen Rui would change his temperament.

In his opinion, Shen Rui was wise and thoughtful, and was very talented in learning things. If he focused on the imperial examination, he would definitely be a young juren. He had great expectations for Shen Rui and naturally did not want Shen Rui to take detours.

Every time Shen Rui comes back with Master Hongshan, he still returns to Wang Shouren to listen. Wang Shouren speeds up his teaching speed and seems to be adding weight every day, looking at Shen Rui's tolerance limit.

Shen Ruizheng focused on the mystery of Buddhism and did not realize that he would teach too much every day. Because he truly respected Wang Shouren, he was unhappy to let him down and was still very focused on his study. In one day or two, the Analects of Confucius was finished unknowingly, and he had already talked about "Mencius".

Seeing that Shen Rui did not delay memorizing every time he practiced calligraphy, but his mind was mostly on Buddhism. Wang Shouren knew that it would not be possible to stop him.

On this day, when Shen Rui wanted to travel with Zen Master Hongshan again, Wang Shouren kept him.

Wang Shouren said straight to the point: "Brother Rui, do you want to be a monk when you grow up?"

Shen Rui was stunned and shook his head quickly and said, "Sir, I misunderstood. The disciple has no idea of ​​becoming a monk, but he is quite curious about Buddhism."

Wang Shouren said seriously: "If you don't work hard when you are young, you will be sad when you are old. Learning is a matter of sailing against the current. You have memorized the homework these days, but what do you still remember? Have you ever understood the meaning? Swallowing it whole, are you fooling yourself or are you fooling yourself?"

When Shen Rui heard this, his face turned red.

After meeting a famous teacher, he was determined to be a good student, but now he was scolded. The right thing Wang Shouren said was right, and it was really a sharp attack.

Shen Rui whispered: "Sir, I am wrong. I shouldn't be addicted to Buddhism and distract myself from my homework."

"Buddhism is profound and profound. As a teacher, I have also been deeply attracted to me, and I learned the word "good" from it. Good people are good self-benefits, and forgive others means forgiveness, which makes people open-minded. It is the mystery of Taoism. If you understand it deeply, you can also gain something. But you are still young and it is time to study. My teacher does not agree to you for dabbling in the two doors of Buddhism and Taoism too early. Buddhism talks about letting go, and Taoism worships freedom. When you learn to be a human being and learn to be responsible, you should not come into contact with these two methods." Wang Shouren said.

Shen Rui was so ashamed that he couldn't raise his head. He could not deny that he really envied Zen Master Hong Shan's freedom these days. He even had a thought in his heart. If he encountered great setbacks or difficulties one day, could he be able to follow the ancestors of the Lu family and build a Zen temple in a beautiful place?

Such "let go" is not a real "let go", it is just an irresponsible excuse.

Wang Shouren sighed and said, "I know you look lonely and kind-hearted. If you encounter someone in trouble and need help, will you help me?"

Shen Rui disdains to be a Holy Father and wants to shake his head. The indifference of modern people is engraved in his soul, so that he will never think that "human hearts are good" like Wang Shouren. However, he is just an ordinary person and does not have the courage to look down on the people as an ant. If he really encounters a person in trouble, he is still willing to lend a helping hand in the best of his ability.

Thinking of this, Shen Rui nodded.

But he believes that it is "the human heart is evil". Even if he is determined to do good, he will protect himself and not cause trouble for himself.

Wang Shouren looked up and said, "But have you ever thought about how many people can you help with just one person?"

Shen Rui couldn't answer, full of confusion. He really never thought about it. He did not regard himself as God, so how could he always think about helping others? With his current situation, he still needs help from others.

Why did Wang Shouren bite into "helping others"? The image of "Holy Father" should not be the queen's whispering, long-lasting, and even if you are slapped, you have to worry about whether it hurts the other person's hand? Wang Shouren's image has nothing to do with "Holy Father". Don't act like a show.

The more familiar Wang Shouren's halo of "saint" in Shen Rui's heart is, the dimmer. Even if Wang Shouren's character is respected, he is still down-to-earth.

Confused, Shen Rui Shentai suddenly became clear and thought of a possibility: "Mr. Is it because he can enjoy a leisurely personality, but he insists on the imperial examination. What is it for? Is it the eldest son's responsibility to shine on his family, or does he want to succeed and win over the people?"

Wang Shouren smiled on his face: "It's hard for you to think of this. You really have this foolish thought for your teacher. I have no intention of fighting for power and just want to benefit the people in one area. If there is a county, I will treat the people in one county well; if there is a government place, I will make the decision for the people in this government place; if there is a province, I will do my best to uphold justice for them."

Speaking of his ambitions, Wang Shouren's eyes were shiny and his intentions were still not over, but Shen Rui was sweating coldly when he heard this.

Wang Shouren's idea is not surprising. Those who are noble and not keen on power will often have the purpose of benefiting the people and become officials, but they are mostly good at doing bad things.

Shen Rui was surprised that Wang Shouren was ambitious and definitely not a place to end with a province. In the eyes of others, it is ridiculous to talk about a juren. Not to mention a governor, even a fourth-rank prefect, many officials could not stand this position in their entire lives.

However, Shen Rui knew that Wang Shouren would achieve success in the future, so he heard the arrogance from Wang Shouren's words. If such remarks were distorted, they would be rebellious.

Wang Shouren's idea was open-minded and selfless. If he acted like this, he would become a good parent of the people. But among the officials, how many people had thoughts like Wang Shouren? The world was as black as a crow, and a white one would only be out of place.

He knew that he should be cautious at this moment, Shen Rui couldn't help but say: "Even if the teacher tried his best, he would just govern a county, a prefecture, and a province. Have you ever thought that there is a way to allow more people to get parents and officials who care about the people?"

After saying that, Shen Rui regretted that he was quick-talking.

It is not so easy to start a sect and establish a sect. If you are not careful, you will be suspected of forming a clique. When Wang Shouren retires in his old age, or is dismissed from office and is dismissed from office, no one will care about it. If he is in the court and in his youth and middle-aged age, he will be seeking death.

Wang Shouren smiled and said, "Although I have the idea of ​​benefiting the land and waters, I am just talking about it on paper and there are many shortcomings. Therefore, I often go to the market to see various lifestyles. How to be good to the people and what the people really need needs still need to explore slowly. What can I teach others with this proven idiom? "

This person is indeed a responsible person, but thinking of his bumpy experience before his preaching, Shen Rui whispered: "Disciple knows that there is not only one province in the world, and the ambition of a gentleman will not be limited to this. It's just that people's hearts are unpredictable. Some people like to judge a gentleman's ambition by the heart of a villain. In order to prevent disasters from coming out, the ambition of a gentleman, and don't want to pronounce it in the future."
