someone took shelter under the eaves and saw Guanyin walking with an umbrella. The man said, "Quan Yin Bodhisattva, please enjoy all sentient beings. Why don't you take me for a while?"
Guanyin said: "I am in the rain, you are under the eaves, but there is no rain under the eaves, you do not need me to a degree."
the man immediately jumped out of the eaves and stood in the rain: "now that I'm in the rain, isn't it time for me?"
Guanyin said: "you are in the rain, I am also in the rain, I am not caught in the rain because I have an umbrella; you are caught in the rain because there is no umbrella." So it's not me, it's me. If you want to think about it, you don't have to look for me. Please find your umbrella! "
then left.
the next day, the man encountered something difficult, so he went to the temple to ask for Quan Yin. When I walked into the temple, I found that there was also a person worshiping in front of the statue of Quan Yin, who looked the same as Guanyin.
the man asked, "are you Guanyin?"
the man replied, "I am Guanyin."
the man asked, "Then why do you worship yourself?"
Guanyin said with a smile, "I have encountered difficulties, too, but I know that it is better to ask for help than to ask for yourself."
feeling: Life is hard, and you have no choice but to cross it by yourself.

the old man replied, "No matter how I look back, the bowl is still broken."

what should I do? The messenger is still waiting to report back. In a great country, you don't even know this little thing, do you?
finally, an old minister who abdicated said he had an idea.
the emperor invited the emissary to the main hall, and the old minister confidently took three straws and inserted them into the ear of the first golden man, and the straw came out of the other ear.
the straw of the second golden man fell directly out of his mouth, while the third golden man, the straw went in and fell into his stomach without any sound.
the old minister said: the third golden man is the most valuable!
