Chapter 406: What is Cause and Effect?

Tang Sanzang looked at Di Mu Ling who fled like a panicked deer, shook his head with a smile, his blushing appearance was really cute, it seemed that he accidentally tripped before, and it didn't seem like he did it on purpose. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"However, why is this look so familiar?" Tang Sanzang raised his eyebrows, looking at Mu Ling, who had already entered the small courtyard, and suddenly felt a little pain in his head...... No, if this Mu Ling Fairy really fell in love with him at first sight or something, wouldn't it be very embarrassing, taking advantage of other people's liking this kind of thing, Tang Sanzang has always disdained to do it.

"No matter, let's take one step at a time, it's really not good, it's a big deal that I don't want any saint magic weapon. Tang Sanzang exhaled lightly and walked slowly into the small courtyard.

The small courtyard is not big, you can see it at a glance, but it is not narrow, the garden, the small table, the swing hanging on the tree, there should be everything, an old plum tree at the door is full of pink flower bones, it seems that it will open in a few days, there is a small square spiritual spring in the corner of the courtyard, and the aura is permeated with the whole exquisite courtyard.

Tang Sanzang pushed the door in, Mu Ling was carrying a teapot to receive spring water from the spiritual spring, the blush on his face had not yet receded, but he had not dodged Tang Sanzang's eyes, and pointed to the white jade table on the side with a little panic and said, "Master, please take a seat." ”

Tang Sanzang sat down at the table according to his words, looking at Mu Ling, who was slowly boiling the teapot on the small stove with charcoal fire, while preparing vegetable leaves and other things, his white hands were not particularly slender, but his round fingers looked particularly cute, holding the teaspoon dexterously, and pouring the tea tips rolled together into the already boiling teapot.

The tea leaves spread out when they entered the water, and the tender green tea tips floated on the water surface, and the rich tea fragrance soon wafted in the small courtyard, and there was a faint fragrance.

"Good tea. Tang Sanzang took a deep breath and said sincerely. Although he is not a good tea person, but he still drank a lot of good tea in Chang'an back then, whether it is the imperial offerings from all over the Tang Dynasty, or the tea paid tribute by Fanbang, even if it is the best tea master in the palace, there is no such refreshing tea fragrance.

"This is the Kunlun spirit tea picked from the top of Kunlun Mountain, it can only be picked once in three hundred years, when Qiu Li and I went to the West Queen Mother with Lao Jun as a guest, the West Queen Mother asked me and Qiu Li to pick it by myself, and drank some when I was in the Tushi Palace before. Mu Ling said with a smile, and said to himself with some regret: "I knew that the mage liked it, so I would have kept more." ”

Tang Sanzang was slightly stunned, he didn't expect this tea to have such a background, no wonder it was not comparable to ordinary tea, even Li Simin didn't have this blessing. However, when I heard Mu Ling's soft voice behind me, I felt a little funny, although he acted like a down-and-out intellectual fairy, but in some ways he was still somewhat similar to Qiu Li.

As if knowing that Tang San was looking at her, Mu Ling didn't dare to raise his head, lowering his head and concentrating on making tea.

The air fell into an awkward silence again, except for the sound of bubbles bursting as the spring water boiled in the kettle.

"Mu ......" Tang San turned the Buddha beads in the loose monk's robe, and it was also a pleasure to watch Mu Ling make tea, but the two were not old friends after all, and they just wanted to open their mouths to break the embarrassing silence.

"Alright. Mu Ling also opened his mouth at the same time, rolled up the teapot handle with a towel, slowly raised it, poured the clear tea into the purple sand cup, and a young leaf floated on the water surface and turned.

Mu Ling picked up the teacup with both hands and put it in front of Tang Sanzang, stretched out his hand and said, "Master, please." He withdrew his hand and looked at Tang Sanzang expectantly.

Tang Sanzang looked at the expectant look in Mu Ling's eyes, his heart suddenly moved, he looked down at the lilac purple sand cup, and there were young leaves on the water surface that were changing and rotating like spirits, the familiarity when he saw Mu Ling before came to his heart again, this scene, it seems that he has seen it somewhere, the same person, the same tea......

"Fairy Mu Ling, have we ever met there?" Tang Sanzang raised his eyes and asked with some uncertainty as to Mu Ling, although he was quite confident in his memory, this sense of familiarity that had not come still made him a little suspicious.

Mu Ling was slightly stunned, the expression on his face froze, and a layer of pink surged up his cheeks again, but this time he didn't avoid Tang Sanzang's gaze, the hand hanging by his side clenched, and slowly let go, his mouth opened slightly, but it seemed that he couldn't speak.

"Fairy Muling, don't be surprised, it's me who is too careful, but when I saw this set of tea sets, as well as the appearance of you making tea before, I inexplicably felt a little familiar, so I asked this question, it is impossible for you and me to see it. Tang Sanzang saw that Mu Ling's expression was a little uncomfortable, and he also felt that what he asked was not appropriate, so he shook his head and said apologetically.

Mu Ling nodded slightly when he heard this, his eyes drooped, a touch of loss flashed in his eyes, he picked up the teacup in front of him, and when he looked up again, his face was already replaced with a clean and clear smile, "Master, please." ”

Tang Sanzang took a sip of the teacup, his mouth was sweet and clear, sliding down his throat, his internal organs seemed to be jumping, as if he had washed his entire body along his throat, closing his eyes and savoring the aftertaste, the fragrance left between his lips and teeth was also refreshing.

"Good tea. Tang Sanzang opened his eyes and looked at Mu Ling, and said with a smile.

Although there was only one good word in the two compliments, Tang Sanzang felt that this was enough, because this was indeed a good pot of tea, the tea leaves were good, the spring water was good, the tea set was good, and the person who made the tea was better.

In the past 18 years, Tang Sanzang has never drunk such a good tea, if ordinary people drink it, I am afraid it can cure all kinds of diseases.

Mu Ling looked at Tang Sanzang, nodded with a smile, and said silently in his heart: "Back then, he also said the same, a good word is enough. ”

Tang Sanzang put down the teacup, only felt refreshed, looked at Mu Ling and smiled: "Fairy Mu Ling said before that he wanted to discuss Buddhism with me, but I didn't expect that the fairy cultivated the Tao and also dabbled in Buddhism. ”

"I don't dare to talk about Buddha, but I just read a few Buddhist scriptures, and I have some confusion in my heart, and I hope the master can explain it in detail. Mu Ling shook his head and said, pouring another cup of tea for Tang Sanzang.

"Fairy, please speak. Tang Sanzang nodded slightly, when it comes to preaching, he is not stage frightened, after all, there are a lot of scriptures to come in the past eighteen years, Mu Ling is a Taoist, and he should not be able to ask any profound Buddhist questions.

"Dare to ask the master, what is cause and effect, if there is a cause, will there be a consequence?" Mu Ling looked at Tang Sanzang and asked.

Tang Sanzang was slightly stunned, thought about it carefully, and said: "Cause and effect, that is, cause and effect, the time is not right, the cause is not born, and because it is not fate, there is no fate." ”

"Is the time ......" Mu Ling whispered, lowered his eyes and was silent for a while, his white fingers swept over the rim of the cup, dipped a drop of tea, and raised his eyes and asked, "Then how do you know if the time is up?"
