That night, I received a call from Senior Brother Mitsuki.

I haven't met for a long time, and I can't help but have some greetings on the phone. After the greetings, the senior brother said that he had been handling matters for Shanxin in Beijing recently, and he would come to the temple early tomorrow morning to meet.

I was overjoyed to hear that since I was sent to Dongyue Temple, I have been busy with the mundane affairs of the temple for a while, so I rarely contact my brothers and sisters. This time, the senior brother came to talk about it, and I could ask the senior brother to help consider this empty matter.

The next morning, just after the hour. The senior brother arrived.

Shanheng Shan Xian Shan Hao was also overjoyed when he saw the arrival of his uncle, and he hugged him all the way to the door. The senior brother was very attentive and brought some small gifts to each of them.

"Senior brother hasn't seen him for a long time, but he is still radiant and has an excellent temperament, he can really be described as a fairy wind, heroic and cool!"

"The younger brother takes care of the temple, manages it well, and advances in an orderly manner, which is really immeasurable merit, immeasurable merit! It makes me, as a senior brother, both happy and ashamed. The senior brother returned the salute and said.

"Uncle Shi, take it out and divide it with a few of our nephews!" Shan Xian said and stretched out his hand to Uncle Shi.

Senior Brother Sanji was asked inexplicably: "What?"

"Sour jujube seeds, I just saw that Uncle Shi was sour, didn't you eat sour jujube seeds?"

"This kid!" said with a smile.

Tea over three rounds. I confessed to my senior brother what I had encountered recently, and asked for his opinion.

After hearing this, the senior brother pondered for a moment and said, "In my humble opinion, these two cannot be detained, and they should be released as soon as possible." ”

"Oh, why do you say that?"

"At present, it is the initial stage of the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, and it is all caused by misunderstanding. Moreover, more than 700 years have passed since the debate on Buddhism and Taoism, and the Heavenly Master's Mansion has also sent Gao Gong to deal with it. The Taoist attitude is very obvious, and he does not want to be the enemy of Buddhism. ”

"If it is a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye, then this matter will definitely become the dispute between the two religions, and then Dongyue Temple will become the target of everyone, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to end. ”

"Then according to Senior Brother's opinion, how should I deal with it?"

"I think I should take the initiative to release the two of them to show that I am broad-minded, so as to settle a dispute. The senior brother said.

Senior Brother Sanji's words are sincere, and they are not unreasonable.

Looking back at the cause of the whole incident, first the twelve Zhengyi seniors were released in Dongyue Temple, and the Heavenly Master ordered the Master, and the Master assigned it to me, which also started from this.

To Tiantai Mountain, put down a group of monks, saw the abbot pass away, empty news in recent days to steal the treasure, the thief was captured again, this pile one by one, the spearhead is all pointed to the Dongyue Temple.

While he was talking, Zang Butian heard that his senior brother was here, and hurriedly got up to meet him.

Previously, in the matter of the alliance leader, the senior brother had been right many times, and it was because Zang Butian's trust in Senior Brother Sanji was particularly deep.

Inevitably greeted him, and then sat down and talked about the topic of suitable talents.

The senior brother expressed his opinion, but after Zang Butian heard this, he did not express any opinion.

It is only said that it needs to be carefully pondered, this matter is related to the two major sects, and it is not trivial, and if you make a mistake, you will lose everything.

After lunch, the senior brother is proficient in the way of health preservation and has the habit of taking a nap. Yu Shan Xian took him to the guest room to rest.

Only me and Zang Butian were left in the tea room, and I asked, "I saw that you wanted to talk and stopped, I don't know why?"

"I don't think you can put it. These two are the key to calming the situation. If you don't even have a hole card, you can only be slaughtered and unable to fight back. "Zang Butian is colorful.

"Well, that's true, and that's exactly what I mean. ”

Strangely, on this day, the empty news did not come.

The woman's mood gradually became irritable, and she kept shouting.

That night, I told Senior Brother Sanji about my concerns with Zang Butian, and after listening to it, Senior Brother pondered for a long time and said, "Your concerns are not unreasonable. It's just that Zang Butian is very deep in the city, you need to take more precautions, there must be a huge conspiracy hidden in this matter, and you can't take anyone lightly. ”

Early the next morning, the senior brother got up and wanted to go back to Longhu Mountain.

Several disciples and I stayed with my senior brother for a few more days, but we still had to make arrangements for the next trip, so we had to be reluctant to send my senior brother away.

Zang Bu Tianmu sent Sanji away, and several times he wanted to speak and stopped: "How do you feel that he came this time, it is not like the past, as if he has something on his mind." ”

"Maybe we didn't follow his advice, and we felt uncomfortable. Senior brother has always been like this, happy and angry, it doesn't matter, it will be fine again in a few days. I was relieved.

Sometimes it's just so strange to feel between people. It's all the same on the surface, but everyone can still sense that something is wrong with the other.

Judging from my senior brother's admonition to me, he seems to be extremely puzzled and dissatisfied with Zang Butian's involvement in this matter. Although Zang Butian didn't talk much with his senior brother, he could still feel that it seemed to be different from the past.

It can be seen that people's aura will change with their state of mind. It's hard not to catch the inadvertent eyes and subtle expressions that are revealed by others.

At noon, the empty smell came.

With the three of Luo Shuidao.

He was accompanied by more than a dozen warrior monks from before, who were stopped outside the temple gate.

After I hurriedly ordered someone to untie and settle the three of Luo Shuidao, I asked, "Please return the soul talisman and requiem banner of the twelve people." ”

Kongwen knew that he was wrong, and reluctantly took out a cloth bag from his arms. Threw it to me.

When they had checked that they were in order, they were brought out of the inner room, and as soon as they came out of the house, the woman began to curse.

It was inconvenient to argue with him in front of everyone, so he hurriedly took the two out.

When he turned around, he stared at me hatefully. Then he hurried out of the temple gate. Led the warrior monks to go.

Back in the hall, Luo Shui and the three of them got up and thanked them.

I said: "This time, because of the lax care of my nephew and nephew, I have brought so much trouble to my uncle, so I ask my uncle to punish me." ”

Luo Shui said: "I'm causing trouble to my nephew." We will quickly report the itinerary to the Heavenly Master, please borrow a phone. ”

On the phone, Chief Luo Shuidao reported to the Heavenly Master what had happened, and explained in detail how to fight, how to negotiate with the four people, how he was swept away by empty news, and how he was rescued.

The Heavenly Master ordered the three of them to rest for a while, and then immediately brought the twelve requiem flags back to the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

That night, the three high-level masters went to bed very early and slept until the next day.

It seems that I have not been able to sleep well for the past few days, but now that the matter is over, I can finally sleep well.

Early the next morning, the three of them set off on their way. We went straight to the intersection and back.

Seeing that the matter was resolved, Zang Butian also had to say goodbye and return to Shandong, saying that many internal affairs in the church had not returned for many days and needed to be dealt with as soon as possible.

After lunch, he also went back with his two disciples.

I don't report this to Master.

That night, Zang Butian called and arrived safely in Shandong.

At noon the next day, Luo Shuidao also sent a message that he had safely arrived at the Heavenly Master's Mansion in Longhu Mountain.

In the afternoon, Shan Xian came to report: Dinghaizhu is gone!
