I'm full of rebellion against fate

Chapter 404 All living beings suffer

Chang Ningchen and the others watched this bloody and horrifying scene. Not long after, the old woman covered in blood stood up again. She looked at Chang Ningchen and the others with the terrible wound on her neck, her face full of unwillingness and anger. No matter how much time passed, the anger in her heart still did not dissipate!

Seeing the old woman stand up again from the pool of blood in a strange posture, the thief was so scared that he jumped up on the spot and quickly hid behind Chang Ningchen.

The old woman suddenly rushed towards Chang Ningchen and the others, and blood flowed into the room through the door. Although she was not invited in, she could use blood as a medium to get into the room.

At this moment, the white dog beside Chang Ningchen suddenly swelled up, from a small cotton ball, directly turning into a huge monster that filled the room. It opened its bloody mouth and bit the old woman in one bite.

Oh my god! This white dog is really powerful! The thief was frightened when he saw the white dog, which was the size of an ordinary guard dog, suddenly expand into a giant beast.

"Eh?! Dog brother! Dog brother... I was just teaching him a lesson. Oh! I hope I didn't offend him!" The little thief prayed in his heart.

Chang Ningchen saw Dongfang He swallow the old woman in one go. He quickly slapped his face and said, "Spit it out! Spit it out now!"

He acted like his own dog had eaten something messy and he was trying to stop it from swallowing it.

Dongfang He didn't really want to swallow this evil ghost, so he quickly spit out the old woman.

The old woman was frightened. It was the first time in her life that she had seen a monster that big!

Chang Ningchen couldn’t find the person to be liberated before, but now that the old woman has revealed her true identity, all he has to do is liberate her.

He then extended his hand to the old woman and said, "Amitabha, well done! Lay down your butcher knife and become a Buddha instantly!"

The old woman looked at Chang Ningchen's slender and powerful hands. She wanted to be redeemed, but in her heart she didn't want to admit that she had killed someone.

As long as these people are dead, no one will know that she has killed anyone, and she can continue to control the world and turn it into the beautiful image in her mind!

Seeing the hesitation in the old woman's eyes, Dongfang He bared his fangs at the evil ghost, letting her realize that as long as it was there, Chang Ningchen would not be harmed by her!

"Change back."

Chang Ningchen stopped Dongfang He from baring his teeth and patted his head.

The giant dog shook its big head and immediately turned back into its previous petite white dog. It stood at Chang Ningchen's feet, wagging its tail.

Without the threat of the demon dog, the old woman's eyes seemed to become fierce again. Chang Ningchen looked at the old woman calmly and said, "One thought can make you a devil, one thought can make you a Buddha. The sea of suffering is boundless, but turning back is the shore."

The old woman looked at Chang Ningchen, her eyes flickering again. She shook her head and said, "My life is too painful! My parents don't love me, my husband doesn't love me, my children don't love me...even I don't love myself!"

She didn't want to deny her parents' love for her, but when she thought about the first half of her life, her parents only used her as a tool for marriage. Compared with her brother, the old woman could only stay in the room and look at the square sky through the window. If this was also considered love, then what was the difference between her and a bird in a cage?

Chang Ningchen sighed and said, "After I came down the mountain, I saw that the cow was not tied up but was only eating the grass around the wood. Later, the cow's owner told me that the cow had been tied up with a rope on a wooden stick since it was young. Even without the rope, it would not dare to go beyond the rope's range when it grew up.

The female donor is now like the cow, unable to escape the prison in her heart. Letting go of herself is also a form of releasing life."

The old woman cried and said, "I won't accept it! I won't accept it!"

Chang Ningchen said: "The clarity of water is not because it is free of impurities, but because it knows how to settle; the clarity of the mind is not because it is free of distractions, but because it knows how to make choices.

If a female donor is unable to bear children, she will pray for them to have children. If the child is not healthy, she will pray for good health. If the child is not smart enough, she will pray for the child to be smart, to pass the imperial examination, to marry and have children...

Life is often unhappy, and the human heart suffers because of greed."

The old woman was stunned when she heard Chang Ningchen's words. Was she too greedy?

Chang Ningchen looked at the old woman and said, "You are actually right. You just want your own love, but this world is so cruel that it forces women like you to sacrifice for their families.

In reality, this world is very fair. It's not fair to everyone. Everyone has their own share of suffering: being born into poverty, having a difficult career, and being left alone in old age... Men have their own suffering, women have their own suffering, and all living things suffer. Clinging to a single thought will trap you; letting go of a single thought will free you.

The old woman gradually calmed down. All living beings suffer, and if she keeps thinking about her own suffering, her life will never be sweet.

Chang Ningchen extended his hand to the old woman again. He smiled and said, "Put down your butcher knife and become a Buddha right here."

This time the old woman figured it out. If there is a next life, she will love herself first, and no one else can love anyone else!

The bloody blade fell to the ground. Chang Ningchen chanted the mantra of rebirth to the old woman. The Sanskrit characters emitted golden light, enveloping the house in light.

Beautiful flowers bloomed in the blood all over the ground. The old woman clasped her hands together and confessed her sins. Her originally ferocious face turned back to its original plain appearance, and the clothes splashed with blood became a dress with lotus flowers painted on it.

Countless ghosts also appeared from the darkness, and the previously empty room suddenly became crowded. The sudden appearance of so many "people" scared the thief so much that he hid behind the white dog.

Dongfang He despised this coward, and then looked at Chang Ningchen with admiration. Even though Achen was a monk, he was still so handsome and good-looking!

After all the scriptures were chanted, the whole house became dilapidated and the surrounding area returned to its normal appearance of a deserted house.

Chang Ningchen stood outside the house, and everyone in the house waved goodbye to him.

The thief panicked when he saw Chang Ningchen standing outside the house. He shouted, "Master! Holy monk! Don't leave me here! Brother Gou! Brother Gou, save me!"

Chang Ningchen looked at the little thief helplessly and said, "Actually, you're already dead. Now hurry up and reincarnate with the main group!"

There was no living person in the house except Chang Ningchen, so Chang Ningchen knew that the thief was dead the first time he saw him, but he didn't know it himself.

"Ugh?!"

The little thief then realized that he was also in a floating state, and he burst into tears. He didn't expect that he just came in to steal something but ended up losing his life.

Chang Ningchen advised him, "Why are you crying? You'll be a brave man again in eighteen years. Live a self-reliant life in your next life and don't be a thief!"

The little thief nodded while crying, then quickly followed the ghost in the house and left. He decided that he must not be a thief in his next life. He was so unlucky in this life!
