I am collecting entries in reincarnation

Chapter 75 Entering the City
"Huh, is that the capital?" Chang Miao put his hands on his eyebrows to block the sunlight, looked into the distance, exhaled a breath, and said happily, "Senior Brother, we are finally here!"

Li Ming also had a smile on his face. Looking at the tall city gate in front of him, which was the crystallization of the wisdom of several generations, a heavy sense of history came over him, causing the fire in his spirit platform to jump, causing Li Ming to frown.

"So fast?" Yue Yongfeng was stunned, and he was shocked when he saw the city in front of him.

"Brother Yue, since we have arrived in the capital, let's say goodbye." Li Ming suddenly said.

"Ah?" Yue Yongfeng obviously did not expect Li Ming to say this, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Before this, he had thought about what kind of return Li Ming would ask for and what conditions he would put forward, but he never expected that Li Ming would mention separation before entering the city.

Over the past three days, Yue Yongfeng had already noticed the abilities of these two brothers and was eager to win them over. He quickly said, "Gentlemen, now that we are about to enter the city, let me show my hospitality and thank you for saving my life."

"All good things must come to an end." Li Ming laughed and said, "It's fate that we met. If fate isn't over yet, we'll meet again someday. Junior brother, let's go. Brother Yue, take care!"

Chang Miao also raised his hand like a goose and said, "Brother Yue, take care!"

"Indeed..." Yue Yongfeng forced a smile and bowed to the two of them. In front of the tall city gate, Yue Yongfeng watched them enter the city and said to himself, "They are truly noble and upright people, unlike a vulgar person like me."

"Senior brother, this is the capital city, it's so big!" Unlike Li Ming, Chang Miao had never been to this place. Everything here was full of novelty to him.

Whether it is the towering city walls, the wide streets, the bustling crowds, the hawkers shouting their wares, the fragrant restaurants, the shops selling rare treasures, the girls in revealing clothes, etc., this is not suitable for children to watch, hurry up and leave.

The two of them strolled from dusk until the sun set, and the Jade Rabbit rose quietly.

"Brother, we don't have to spend the night on the street, do we?" Chang Miao asked at this time.

"Of course not, just find a place nearby." Li Ming replied.

"How about that?"

Li Ming looked in the direction Chang Miao pointed and saw a four-story building with big red lanterns hanging high. Just from the outside, he could tell it was luxurious. On the balcony across the street from the second floor, there were many girls flirting with each other, trying to save fabric for the country. He immediately knew where this place was. He frowned and said, "What's wrong with you, kid? Don't you know what this place is?"

Chang Miao was like an eggplant hit by frost. She whispered, "But I see you've been walking around here for almost half an hour and can't move a step. How can you say you're going to leave?"

Li Ming then smiled awkwardly, thinking to himself, "Zhang Mingyu really misled me!"

How could I be such a womanizer? It's all an illusion!!!
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but at this moment, a woman dressed in fancy clothes and wearing heavy makeup looked at the two of them and waved repeatedly.

"Gentlemen, would you like to join us? The girls in our Yihonglou are famous for their proficiency in all kinds of skills."

Chang Miao's face turned red, but Li Ming smiled and said, "Next time, definitely next time!"

As he was about to leave, he suddenly heard a voice. "Shariputra, if there are good men and women who hear about Amitabha Buddha and hold his name, whether for one day, two days, three days, four days, five days, six days, or seven days, with a single-minded focus, at the time of their death, Amitabha Buddha and all the holy beings will appear before them. At the time of their death, their minds will not be confused, and they will be reborn in Amitabha Buddha's Pure Land."

Shariputra, I see this benefit, so I say this. If there are living beings who hear this, they should make a vow to be born in that land.

"This passage means, Shariputra, that sentient beings possessing only a small amount of good roots, merit, and conditions cannot attain rebirth in the Pure Land. If a good man or woman hears the name of Amitabha Buddha and sincerely and earnestly holds his or her name for one, two, three, four, five, six, or seven days, with a single-minded focus, at the end of his or her life, Amitabha Buddha will appear before him or her along with the other saints, and this will keep that person's mind from wandering at the moment of death, and he or she will attain rebirth in Amitabha Buddha's Pure Land.

Shariputra, I see that the Land of Ultimate Bliss has so many benefits, so I tell you this; if there are sentient beings who hear this, they should vow to be reborn in the Land of Ultimate Bliss.

This scripture is the famous "Amitabha Sutra". Li Ming is very familiar with it, but he was a little surprised to hear it in this red light district. Moreover, the man's explanation was very easy to understand. Li Ming couldn't help but feel moved and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

But it was next to a tall building, where an old monk was smiling and reciting scriptures with a few little beggars. The old monk was dressed simply, with a few patches on his robe, and his face was very old. Although he was thin, he had a kind face and a benevolent look, which made people feel a little favorable at first sight.

Chang Miao saw Li Ming pause and stopped to look in the direction Li Ming was looking. Seeing that it was an old monk, he asked curiously, "Brother, what is this old monk doing here?"

"I think he is preaching the Dharma." said Li Ming.

After a while, the old monk seemed to have finished speaking, and he took out two steamed buns from his bowl and distributed them to the beggars around him, still with a smile on his face. He didn't even care that the beggars were dirty and stroked their hair from time to time.

Perhaps because the two men stopped for too long, the woman who had been soliciting customers before also came over. Seeing the two men staring at the old monk, she chuckled.

"He's a playboy."

"Ah?!" Chang Miao was stunned and asked, "You are still a monk at such an old age. It's true that the heart is not old even though the person is old."

The woman laughed when she heard the voice and said, "He hangs out in these red-light districts all day long, so how could he not be a playboy?"

"What flower monk? He's just a fool." At this time, another voice with a hint of sarcasm sounded.

Li Ming looked up and saw an older woman who was not wearing heavy makeup and whose clothes were not revealing and could even be considered simple and elegant. She also had an air of keeping strangers away.

"Sister Yue!" The young woman was obviously a little surprised, but she muttered, "You still say he is stupid, I don't know who brings him food every day."

"Stop talking too much!" Sister Yue raised her eyebrows and looked a little displeased when she heard that.

But his actions were very honest. He handed a lunch box in his hand to the young woman and turned away.

"Give him things and he comes back to attract customers. He has others to give alms to, do you have any?"

The young woman just smiled, then turned to look at Li Ming and Chang Miao and suddenly told the story of the Flower Monk.
