Chapter 81: My Thoughts Are Not Mine, My Heart Is Buddha
“Thoughts are not mine, my heart is Buddha. Awakened and know to be sober, sober but not attached. Thoughts move with the heart, the sword breaks through all demons. The Great Dao is without limit, and cannot be spoken. Rebirth and transformation, spiritual escape into the void. Om Mani Padme Hum!”
At this moment, Big Brother was forced to no longer place his hopes on these acquaintances.
Otherwise, I would have truly died.
The experiences of the past flashed through my mind, along with a summary of my cultivation journey. I silently recited the self-enlightened escape technique.
This was Big Brother’s second life-saving method.
“Om!” accompanied by a low and earth-shattering roar, the entire world trembled.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling golden light, like the morning sun at dawn, suddenly erupted from Big Brother’s heart, which was on the verge of death from being abused.
This golden light, like a graceful giant dragon, spiraled and danced in the sky, emitting a dazzling radiance. Wherever it passed, the void seemed to be torn apart, leaving clear golden trails, and it was like the most brilliant meteor streaking across the night sky.
“Amitabha!”
In that boundless void, a strange ripple suddenly appeared, and a solemn and majestic Buddha shadow slowly materialized. This Buddha shadow radiated brilliant Buddha’s light all around, like a dazzling golden sun, making it impossible to look directly at it.
He clasped his hands together, his expression solemn, but in the next moment, his originally compassionate and serene eyes suddenly glared open, like two incomparably sharp lightning bolts tearing through the sky, shooting directly at the Nine-Lived Cat Demon that was grabbing me.
The Nine-Lived Cat Demon felt that immense pressure and its body instantly stiffened, as if imprisoned by an invisible force.
It widened its eyes in terror, and involuntarily let out a dry gulp: “Gurgle…”
At the same time, its claws, which had been tightly grasping Big Brother’s neck, also seemed to lose all their strength and unconsciously loosened their grip on Big Brother.
Of course, everyone present was the same.
They all stood there blankly, staring at everything happening before them.
Their faces were filled with shock and disbelief, their mouths slightly agape, as if they wanted to say something, but were too stunned to make a sound.
Time froze at this moment, and the entire world was filled only with this shocking scene, deeply imprinted in everyone’s minds.
The first to recover their senses from this strange state was Yama, who was also Big Brother’s godfather.
As if waking from a dream, the confusion in his eyes instantly vanished, replaced by determination and decisiveness.
Five minutes after I fell to the ground.
Godfather flashed his body without hesitation and rushed to my side with lightning speed, rescuing me.
However, I had completely lost consciousness at this time, and as I was held in godfather’s arms, incredible changes were happening.
Sometimes I transformed into a young child, and sometimes into an old person nearing the end of life. It was like constantly flowing through the cycle of blossoming and withering, birth, old age, sickness, and death.
This peculiar phenomenon of constant change, from young to old and back to young again, greatly shocked godfather.
He could not understand what he was seeing, and his heart was filled with worry and doubt.
“Gurgle.” As I transformed into a young child, golden urine sprayed onto godfather.
Godfather was stunned for a moment and was about to get angry, but seeing that I was just a child, he changed his expression to one of affection.
Then, before godfather could even react, I began to transform from a human into other living beings again: a flower, a blade of grass, a tree, a pig, a sheep, a dog, changing into the appearance of all living beings in the world. After experiencing ten thousand reincarnations, I reverted to the appearance of Big Brother as an infant.
“This?” Even a king like godfather, who controlled the power of reincarnation, could not clearly understand why I was like this at this moment.
On the other side, the Nine-Lived Cat Demon was unable to extricate itself from its immense terror. It, which had not taken the others seriously just moments ago, began to disintegrate from the inside out, its primordial spirit shattering.
A few minutes later, the strange phenomenon in the sky dissipated, and the Nine-Lived Cat Demon was left with only a corpse.
Only then did everyone gradually awaken from their previous dazed state.
In the Heavenly Court Immortal Path Academy, the Nine-Lived Cat Demon’s fate tablet shattered in response to its death.
The person on duty anxiously reported the matter to the academy. The Hospital Director was extremely enraged, which was understandable, given their background. Since the academy was built, such an incident had never occurred before.
“Issue an order! Investigate using all your connections! You must find out the cause of my son’s, no, the Nine-Lived Cat Demon’s death, and bring the perpetrator back to suffer eternal suppression! They shall never be reborn!”
Of course, Big Brother was unaware of these events happening in heaven, because Big Brother’s spiritual sense had fallen into a deep sleep, and he was only operating on instinct.
Even simple matters like eating, drinking, urinating, and defecating had to be relearned.
Godfather brought me to the Underworld, and my other three brothers loyally stayed by my side to take care of me.
“Old Fourth, damn it, you forgot to change Big Brother’s diaper today! I’ll kick your ass! Big Brother’s feces are all over his butt!”
Old Dog complained to Xue Pan while taking off my diaper.
“Second Brother! Damn you, you forgot to buy milk powder again! What will Big Brother eat today? If it’s really impossible, can you go hire two wet nurses for Big Brother?”
Xue Pan, holding the milk bottle, also complained to Jin Buque.
“Damn it! Third Brother, I’m not going to say this to you! How old is Big Brother? You’re showing him Animal World!”
…
Three years later, I had grown to about seven or eight years old, as if I had eaten fertilizer.
“Second Brother, this school is good. This school is close to home, and the tuition fee isn’t too high. The three of us brothers can afford it,” said Old Dog.
“How can that work, Third Brother? Don’t you think about who Big Brother is? Can attending an ordinary school be acceptable? At the very least, we should send him to the city to study?” Xue Pan retorted.
Jin Buque pinched his Big Toad chin and said, “You are both right, but no matter how hard or difficult it is, we cannot let Big Brother suffer! How about this, I, Old Jin, will work harder, try to spit out more copper coins, and then buy a school district house in the city. We will move there directly, so we can accompany Big Brother to school, and the economy in the city is also higher, with more job opportunities.”
Old Dog: “Well, that’s acceptable. I’ll set up a stall to sell pancakes then.”
Xue Pan: “Okay, there are more recyclable waste in the city. Besides going out to collect, I’ll also pick up more bottles.”
Jin Buque: “Good, then I’ll be responsible for taking care of Big Brother at home, picking him up and dropping him off at school, and tutoring him. After all, with Big Brother’s talent, how can he lose at the starting line? I’ll arrange all sorts of tutoring classes for him, like martial arts, Taekwondo, calligraphy, chess, and painting, I’ll get him a set of everything.”
After the three of them made their decision, they began to get busy with their respective tasks.
