199, Fire Spirit Fruit

This world is really magical, I have heard that there are four seasons in a mountain, and it is the first time I have seen such a place of spring in the cold and biting place of winter in the northwest, and it is on such a high mountain.

Liu Shuang walked into the main hall under the leadership of the old monk, and the brothers of the dark hall consciously stopped in front of the main hall, and stood outside at random to rest, only Xiyue and Agni followed Liu Shuang in.

There is only a Buddha in the main hall, a clay sculpture of the laughing Maitreya, which is different from the golden and brilliant appearance of most temples, but gives people a feeling of returning to nature and is also very mysterious. Standing in front of the Buddha statue, Liu Shuang suddenly felt that this Buddha statue was so familiar, as if he had seen it before, and Maitreya Buddha's smiling eyes seemed to be staring at him and smiling, which felt really strange.

Liu Shuang didn't have the urge to kneel, but felt that he shouldn't worship him, in a certain depth of his heart, he felt that he didn't need to worship him, but there was no reason. Maybe it's because he's not a Buddhist, he doesn't have that kind of devotion to Buddha.

The old monk kept looking at him with a smile, did not speak, and did not persuade Liu Shuang to go and worship. When Liu Shuang's gaze moved away from Maitreya Buddha's body, the old monk stretched out his right hand, took a gesture of invitation, and then took the lead in entering the back hall.

The back hall is a relatively large place, with oil lamps lit in the four corners of the room, and the smell of incense and candles makes it densely covered with a strong Buddhist charm. There are more than ten ** neatly placed in the place where the blue bricks are paved, the old monk sat down on the ** on the back of the Buddha statue, Liu Shuang sat down at the head of the old monk, and the middle-aged monk who followed the old monk disappeared after entering the temple, and I don't know where the road went.

The four of Agni and Xiyue didn't do it, and stood straight behind Liu Shuang, which was also a kind of rest for them.

"Master, do you know my intentions for coming this time?" Liu Shuang didn't know where he came out of this crepe words, as if these words shouldn't come out of the mouth of a big brother of Hei Dao, but he still said it, and it was said very naturally, without the slightest awkwardness.

The old monk smiled and nodded, "This is a point, the old man knows that you will appear here for this point, this is all destined." ”

"Then please ask the master for some advice. The mountains here are high and the forests are dense, and it is not easy to find a person in this vast forest. Liu Shuang abandoned all other ideas, this is the purpose of his coming, the Buddhist family likes to play tricks, and the respect Liu Shuang should have will not be violated, but it is not easy to believe that these words are really not easy for Liu Shuang, a person with an extremely strong heart.

When Liu Shuang was speaking, the middle-aged monk with a serious face walked in, holding a plate of fruit in his hand, and there were water droplets hanging on the fruit, he walked in front of Liu Shuang and personally took a fruit for Liu Shuang and handed it to Liu Shuang, Liu Shuang thanked him and picked up the fruit.

The middle-aged monk didn't take it for the four Agni Fire and Xiyue himself, but just brought the fruit to them and asked them to take it themselves.

"The person the donor is looking for will find it himself, right today." This is the only sentence that the old monk said that Liu Shuang could understand. For the old monk's words, Liu Shuang didn't know if the Dao was really true, but he decided to give it a try, if it really came true, it would naturally be the best, if it didn't come true, he needed to find another way to dig Huang Ming out of here.

"Then thank the master first, I wonder if we can wait here?" Liu Shuang asked.

"The donor, please take it, it's just that it's better not to see blood in front of the Buddha's house." This is a monk's implicit warning to Liu Shuang not to do anything inside the temple, and they won't care if you toss it outside.

"Donor, taste the wild fruits of this mountain!" The old monk Chong Liu Shuang continued.

Liu Shuang was not polite, he was a little thirsty after walking for so long on the mountain road, he looked at the fruit that looked like star fruit and took a bite, surprisingly, this fruit did not quench his thirst at all, it melted in his mouth, and it was hot, as if he had eaten a mouthful of chili.

Liu Shuang raised his head in surprise and stared at the old monk and asked, "Master, what is the name of this fruit?" Why is it so hot? ”

"This fruit is called the Fire Spirit Fruit, it grows on the highest peak of this Guangming Mountain, and it only bears fruit once every hundred years, and this year happens to be the year of the fruit, and fortunately, the little donor you caught up, and the old man used this fruit to entertain the guests." The old monk smiled and said.

"Fire Spirit Fruit?!" Liu Shuang repeated in wonder, is there a mistake in bearing fruit once in a hundred years, there is really it! Shouldn't this be something of mythology? This sentence not only frightened Liu Shuang, but the four Agni Fire and Xiyue couldn't help but be stunned when they looked at the fruit in their hands, and a thought couldn't help but pop up in their hearts, could this be the legendary fairy fruit?

"Could it be that this is the legendary fairy fruit?" In the end, it was Liu Shuang who spoke their hearts, Liu Shuang's eyes were a little puzzled, maybe at this time he was saying in his heart, is there a mistake, is it necessary for a wild fruit to be so grand soon?

"This is not a fairy fruit, this fruit bears fruit once in a hundred years, it is determined by the environment here, you have also seen the environment here, the trees here in winter are all green, and in this high altitude place it feels the same as spring, so the source of this fruit is inseparable from the environment here." It was the middle-aged monk who came out with the fruit that spoke. On the other hand, his words are easy for people to understand, and he also knows the modern word "altitude", and it seems that he knows a lot about the outside world.

Liu Shuang's jaw was suddenly realized, and he took another bite of the fruit, and it disappeared as soon as he entered his mouth, and the hot feeling went down the esophagus, and then instantly seemed to spread all over the body, making people feel comfortable all over the body, and all the pores of the whole body seemed to be opened, it was really a magical fruit, Liu Shuang praised.

The fire spirit fruit was solved by Liu Shuang in three clicks and two clicks, and as soon as Liu Shuang threw the last bit of fruit into his mouth, the old monk spoke: "The time is just right, the person you are looking for is here, little donor." ”

When Liu Shuang was still wondering what was going on, he heard a person's voice coming from inside, as if it was a cry of pain.

The old monk got up, folded his hands and said to Liu Shuang: "The donor can go by himself." As he spoke, he reached inside, in the direction where the voice was coming from.

Liu Shuang suddenly seemed to realize something, he stood up in a flash, and rushed out of the door of the inner hall, and the four Agni Fire and Xiyue also followed closely.
