Prologue There is such a story
Legend, this is just a legend...
Legend... There is a Bodhisattva temple in a deep mountain. The Bodhisattvas in the temple are very effective. Although the journey is long and difficult, there are still a steady stream of good men and women who go to pray and ask the Buddha.
One day, three special guests came to the temple. They belonged to three different countries, but they had the same dream in their hearts. After hearing that the Bodhisattvas here were very effective, they went through a lot of hardships to find this place. You can see how difficult it was along the way. Just look at their ragged clothes and their unkempt faces.
The Bodhisattva was moved by the attachment and enthusiasm of the three. Although they were not his followers, they still agreed to answer a question for each of them, and the three were overjoyed.
The Korean asked first: "Dear Bodhisattva, I am a Korean and a loyal fan of the Korean national football team. I would like to ask when will the Korean team win the World Cup, which symbolizes the highest honor in the football world?"
The Bodhisattva thought for a moment and calmly answered the Korean: "Forty years later."
When the Koreans heard this, they had the honor to see it with their own eyes forty years, so they happily thanked the Bodhisattva and retreated aside.
When the Japanese saw that the Korean team could win the championship in just 40 years, they thought that Japan is now a top-notch Asian team, and should win the championship earlier than the Korean team. So they asked with hope: "Bodhisattva, Bodhisattva, I am a loyal fan of the Japanese team. When will the Japanese team win the World Cup?"
The Bodhisattva thought about it and still answered him calmly: "One hundred years."
When the Japanese heard this, they were no less than a bolt from the blue. They were already dead for a hundred years. It seemed that there was no hope in this life. He cried in the temple sadly.
The Bodhisattva ignored the sad Japanese and asked the last person: "Where are you?"
The Chinese thought for a while and asked, "Well, I am Chinese. I would like to ask the omniscient Bodhisattva, when will our Chinese team win the World Cup?"
