The old man looked at her with a kind face. He had never imagined that he would be discussing Buddhism with a ghost, especially such a young child.

"The butcher knife mentioned in Buddhism is not a real weapon for killing, but refers to malicious intentions, malicious words, malicious actions, as well as all delusions, deluded thoughts, confusion, distortion, discrimination, and attachments."

"Being able to let go of these attachments, malice, and delusions is Buddha, one's own Buddha."

Susie suddenly understood.

Just like she had seen before, there are four sufferings in life: unable to let go, unwilling to part, unable to see through, and unable to obtain.

Only by being able to let go of these four things, can the soul truly find peace.

"Grandpa, so this is what you meant by true Buddha and false Buddha!" Susie suddenly realized.

The old man smiled faintly, "Many people who practice Buddhism nowadays are just struggling in the sea of suffering. They say Amitabha Buddha with their mouths, but they do things that cannot tolerate others' dissent."

"There were more people who practiced Buddhism, praying for others and collecting money, warding off disasters for others and collecting money, and even advising others in their suffering for a fee."

"There are still those who do not seek rewards or responses, stubbornly persisting, which is stubbornness in itself."

"Good and evil are only a thought away, and so is Buddha."

Susie held her head: "..."

She thought the old man spoke very profound, just like in her mother's cultivation novel, where the author would ramble on about a bunch of things that seemed very impressive, but in reality, the author probably didn't understand them either.

"I understand," Susie nodded her little head. "Thank you, Grandpa."

The old man chuckled, "Do you really understand?"

Susie said, "Hmm... how can it be considered incomprehensible?"

The old and the young exchanged a smile, and then there was no more conversation. Only, in front of Susie, the tea that had gone cold was poured again and again by the old man, tirelessly.

When it was about to dawn, it was the coldest weather of the day. The bamboo forest behind the yard rustled, and it unexpectedly started snowing.

Susie exclaimed, "Does it snow here too? This is the south."

The old man sighed, "Yes, it does snow here occasionally... This year is a bit colder."

Susie nodded and stood up, politely thanking, "Thank you, Grandpa, for pouring me the tea. Goodbye! Maybe we won't see each other again in the future, but it was nice to meet you!"

The old man shook his head with a smile and said, "Maybe we will see each other again soon."

Susie: "?"

I couldn't understand, but she had to go back. Tomorrow was New Year's Day, and she still missed her grandmother deep in her heart.

The old man saw her off and watched her leave.

Susie drifted far away, but when she turned back, she could still see that golden light and the old grandfather standing under the eaves.

His face was no longer visible, but his figure became clearer and clearer, as if he was guarding his door - his Buddhist door.

Something in Susie's heart loosened, although she couldn't say she had a complete understanding, but she had already figured out a lot of things and let go of many things. The shackles that had been weighing on her soul, after experiencing the ups and downs of life and the good and evil of the world, were finally released by the old man today.

The realm ascended at a visible speed.

The purple energy center kept rotating, and the golden elixir spun rapidly. All the "spiritual energy" in the world was absorbed and refined by her, different from the yin power in the underworld, but it made up for the lack of yang energy.

The yin and yang intersect, as if there were two fish in the energy center, one black and one "red", constantly giving birth and forming a complete yin and yang fish diagram.

The Yama realm was perfected - the Emperor realm - the early stage of the Emperor realm - the early stage of the Emperor realm was perfected...

Just a little bit away from reaching the mid-stage of the Emperor realm.

Susie's aura suddenly changed, and that kind of breath became more and more like Kellen's.

She advanced to the Emperor realm!

I never expected that the Emperor realm would actually be promoted in the mortal world. There is no Yin energy in the mortal world, so Brett had to risk his life to go to the underworld for promotion before.

"Indeed, cultivation is something that cannot be lacking in anything!" Susie clenched her fist and felt the power faintly circulating, harboring boundless strength within her palms.

I really want to pull out a sandbag and give it a punch to see... but unfortunately, there is no sandbag for her to practice with now.

Susie turned around and took another look. Even though it was very far away, she could still see that golden glow.

"Susie sighed, 'Buddha indeed possesses great wisdom, but unfortunately, the world cannot find two living true Buddhas.'"

She felt grateful in her heart and flew back to the Murray's manor with great joy.

*

The Murray's manor was already bustling, except for Huck, the rest of the Murray family's eight sons had already returned.

The older generation consisted of Craig and Alana.

The middle generation is Martin and his peers.

The grandchildren are Hamza and Jamie.

Clara leaned on the second floor, resting her chin on her hand as she looked down, "Everyone has arrived!"

Unfortunately, Susie didn't come back, so she couldn't show up. Otherwise, Mom would definitely ask her, "You came back, where is Susie?" "Did something happen to Susie?"

And then, I would continue to be unable to calm down...

Jinny saw Clara and looked around, "Mom, where is Susie?"

Clara immediately made a shushing gesture to her.

Jinny withdrew her gaze, keeping her eyes straight ahead, and her eyeballs almost turned into a cockfight.

Alana: "What were you doing?"

Jinny clumsily lied, "I was looking at the beads, can I have one on the left and one on the right..."

Alana: "?"

She ignored them lazily. When the group of people came back, they asked repeatedly, "Mom, where is Susie? Mom, has Susie come back? Mom, when will Susie come back?"

Alana thought: She also wondered when Susie would come back...

It was getting dark, and today was already the 29th.

Why hasn't Susie come back yet?
