Chapter 294: Chapter 293: Fulfill My Wish~
The voice sounded neither male nor female, and it carried a natural amplification, making it seem as if it came from the distant sky.
After descending the mountain, Mianmian hadn’t watched many mythological dramas, but Su Chenjin had come across such films.
The ones who first make a sound and then show their face are generally doing it for effect, to demonstrate that the character making an appearance is exceptionally formidable. Like some great deity, Bodhisattva, and the like.
Sure enough, the Xuying that slowly floated over from the air was none other than the image of Sakyamuni that had just been seen in the Fahua Temple’s main hall.
This Xuying radiated a resplendent golden light, seated serenely on a lotus throne, gazing down at Mianmian with a face full of compassion.
Mianmian looked up and locked eyes with the Xuying.
Having just cried, her lashes were still wet, with a pearl of water about to fall, prompting her to constantly blink.
Once the water droplet fell, Mianmian widened her eyes and her little face showed surprise, "Who are you?"
The Xuying’s lips curled into a smile, one hand resting on the crossed legs, the other lifting in a gesture of boundless compassion, "I am the revered Sakyamuni from the Western Paradise. Seeing you confused and desiring something, I wished to fulfill it for you."
Mianmian feigned excitement, "Really? You really want to fulfill Mianmian’s wish?"
The Xuying nodded slightly, a true embodiment of dignified composure, "Naturally, naturally. If you trust me, you may voice your desires to me, and I shall resolve them for you."
Mianmian’s eyes lit up, "Then, the matters of my mom and dad, as well as other things, you can fulfill them all for me?"
As Mianmian spoke, Su Chenjin glanced at his Little Auntie.
Little Bun’s face still bore the traces of tears, her eyes brimming with hope, as if she truly believed the Xuying’s words.
—If it weren’t for the fact that she was gripping his thumb so tightly.
Su Chenjin gently squeezed back, signaling to his niece that he understood and wouldn’t disrupt Little Auntie’s act.
Otherwise, he feared his thumb might be pinched off.
As for why there was still a sense of pain in the dream, Su Chenjin guessed it might be because the Little Auntie was pinching his hand while he slept. Considering the strange magic involved, it wasn’t odd for the sensations in the dream to mirror reality.
"Of course I can," the Xuying nodded slightly again, maintaining an upright appearance, but the increasingly upturned corners of the mouth betrayed its thoughts.
It was excited!
Indeed, it was excited!
Not only did its expression show excitement, but so did the gaze in its eyes.
Su Chenjin thought back to when he and his Little Auntie roamed around Fahua Temple and saw those statues whose eyes moved.
Was this Xuying the being hiding inside those statues?
As Su Chenjin speculated, Mianmian spoke again, "But, but, my mom and dad are asleep, which is due to fate, an ordeal; do you know about ordeals?"
Little Bun looked troubled in her demeanor, trying to convey that an ordeal was something formidable.
At the mention of a ’but,’ the Xuying’s expression changed abruptly, reverting to its detached countenance, "An ordeal, how could I not know of it? I am the current Tathagata Buddha, naturally aware of all things in this world. If you truly make a wish, I shall help you break through the ordeal."
The Xuying mentioned making a wish again.
Fearing the child in front of it might not understand, it emphasized, "Wishing doesn’t necessarily have to be spoken aloud, simply think it in your heart, and I will know."
Hearing the Xuying stress this time and again, Mianmian touched her shaved head, "I mustn’t think carelessly. Just now, careless thoughts nearly caused a bad guy to suck away all of Mianmian’s merit."
"Buddha, do you know there is a bad guy in Fahua Temple?"
The childish voice carried a hint of disdain for the bad element of Fahua Temple.
Her words caused a momentary twist in the Xuying’s expression, and surprisingly, it didn’t respond immediately.
Su Chenjin was profoundly grateful that, in order to ensure the success of his Company, he had developed the habit of keeping a poker face that did not betray his thoughts through expressions. Otherwise, he reckoned he might have ruined Little Auntie’s ploy.
It’s a good thing he came along.
Old Six is fine, not very expressive to begin with, but Old Five...
Su Chenjin thought about his younger brother’s talent in sports, stopped pondering, and refocused on Xuying.
Just then, Xuying spoke, "Of course I know there are villains in Fahua Temple, but this has nothing to do with my desire to help you fulfill your wish. Look over there, your dad and mom are still asleep. Don’t you want to wake them up soon?"
Mianmian turned to glance at dad and mom, wiped the non-existent tears from the corner of her eyes with her little hand, and said sincerely, "Buddha, my parents’ situation is very important, but the villains in Fahua Temple worry Mianmian even more. Mom said there are priorities in everything. Anyway, Buddha, you can fulfill Mianmian’s wishes, so dad and mom will definitely wake up. Why don’t you help first and take care of the villains in Fahua Temple?"
Her milky, magnanimous words left Xuying speechless once again.
What’s the deal with this kid?
The dream is the child’s own creation; I’m simply going with the flow, casually helping along according to the child’s thoughts. For instance, if the child likes eating Candied Hawthorn, I’d arrange for the parents to give Candied Hawthorn to the child.
Such a lot of Candied Hawthorn—if it was an adult who loved wealth, they’d probably be overjoyed to distraction!
I thought of letting the child continue dreaming, to enjoy the beauty of having living parents, before destroying this beautiful dream, and letting the child experience loss again.
Such pain, adults can hardly bear. And when that person is mentally devastated, I offer help, which makes them see me as a lifesaver, placing all their trust in me.
But I wouldn’t fully realize that person’s wishes, perhaps only for two or three seconds, retracting it as soon as it reaches its limit, then claim it’s because the person’s thoughts were impure.
In this way, one can endlessly harvest desire, converting it into belief value.
Xuying has won countless believers using this method.
There’s only one thing that Xuying isn’t satisfied with.
That’s because I not only gain the purest force of belief but also harvest Negative Emotion.
The Buddhist scriptures emphasize karma, Impermanence, that all is void and the state of selflessness, which Xuying originally agreed with. But those Negative Emotions coexist with belief force within my body, making me confused about what this void truly is.
I digress.
Xuying realized he was zoning out and refocused his attention on Mianmian.
Why would this kid ask me to eliminate myself first?
How could I possibly fulfill such a wish!
"Your parents are about to disappear," Xuying decided to change the topic, "Look back, don’t you really want your parents to wake up first?"
Mianmian looked back at the bed where her parents laid.
The bed was just like the one she saw in her dream after coming down the mountain. The way her parents laid there was also the same as when she saw them at that time.
This was her own memory, so it was bound to be this way.
At this moment, her parents’ bodies on the bed started to become faint and transparent, slowly disappearing.
Seeing this scene, even though she already knew she was dreaming, Little Bun couldn’t help but feel sad. But this sadness didn’t come with complaints; it was because she had already accepted the bad emotions that she would have.
As long as you accept them, there is no problem.
Mianmian pursed her lips tightly, continued looking at the Buddha statue, with rare stubbornness in her eyes, "It doesn’t matter. Since Buddha is here, you can definitely bring dad and mom back. Fulfill the wish I just made first."
Xuying: ...
I thought this shock would definitely make Little Bun collapse; who knew she would still insist on killing me first.
Xuying’s smile was stiff on his face.
The parents were about to disappear, and yet this little one was still fixated on killing me first? This is illogical!
