Early the next morning, the Yue's iron hoof horse, which had been hidden for two days, rode out of the backyard of Xiangfu Building on a purple Roman chariot, stepped on the prosperous street, and galloped straight towards the Lingta Temple on the Maple Mountain outside the West City. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

After the carriage went out of the West City Gate, it was already clear, in the early spring of March, the green grass was born, the old trees were pulling leaves, the swallows were nesting, under the blue sky, there was vitality everywhere. After reaching the foot of Maple Leaf Mountain, the woods begin to thicken, and the shadows of the trees on both sides of the road are fragmented, and after another two months, when these branches and leaves are full, it should be a patch.

Biyue stretched out her head all the way to look out, and swept it for a long time, but the more puzzled she became, "Isn't this called Maple Mountain, but I don't think these trees are maple trees?" Biyue muttered.

Su Jin smiled lightly, "It's not because of the long maple tree that it was named Maple Mountain, but more than 100 years ago, there was a monk named Maple Leaf Zen Master here, and later raised funds to build a Maple Leaf Temple named after his own name on this mountain." After the death of the Maple Leaf Zen Master, his eldest disciple succeeded as the abbot, but he did not want to name the temple after his master's name, and because he presided over the construction of the current gilded pagoda, the temple name was changed to the current Lingta Temple, but out of mourning for the Maple Leaf Zen Master, the mountain was renamed Maple Leaf Mountain. ”

Biyue nodded as if she didn't understand, "So that's the case!" However, how do I think this big disciple is a little ungrateful? What is his Dharma name? It can't be a spirit, right? ”

"You're really right, this big disciple, the law name is ethereal!"

"Wow, that's true!" Biyue Biyue said disdainfully, "Change the name of your master, and then replace your own law name and merits, what is this called!" It's the first time I've known that those so-called monks and so-called masters of Buddhism still have such a thing! ”

Su Jin smiled faintly, "The trap of seven emotions and six desires, how many people can really get rid of it?" ”

"Girl, it's here!" Jing Yu's voice sounded from outside the curtain, and the carriage slowly stopped.

Bi Xi helped Su Jin get out of the carriage, and Bi Yue followed.

Biwa Zhu wall, not far away is a dazzling gilt pagoda towering, several huge sandalwood interspersed between the various courtyards, such a luxurious temple, within the Puda Chen, but also only the Ling Pagoda Temple of Jin Ling.

A few people walked into the temple on the long stone steps, because it was still early, and there were few pilgrims in the temple, but after noon, it was going to be overcrowded. A handsome little monk who was only fourteen or fifteen years old at the end of the year walked up to several people, folded his hands, bowed and said, "Amitabha, I don't know if the donors have come to offer incense to the Buddha, or do they want to ask for a sign of Zen?" ”

Su Jin smiled and bowed slightly, and then he replied, "You Jingxuan Zen Master, can you be in the temple now?" ”

The little monk was slightly stunned for a moment, and then responded, "Amitabha, Zen Master Jingxuan has been in retreat for more than a year, and there are no pilgrims, so ......."

Before he could finish speaking, Su Jin took out a dark ink-colored cicada-shaped jade pendant from his sleeve and handed it to the little monk, "I don't care if he is really in retreat or what, you transfer this to him, he will want to see me!" ”

The little monk was a little embarrassed for a while, "Donor, but this ......"

"You don't believe me?"

The little monk hurriedly shook his head, "It's not that I don't believe in the donor, it's just that ...... All right! The little monk went to ask, but if Master Jingxuan didn't want to see you, he could only ask you to go back. The little monk said, took the jade pendant from Su Jin's hand, turned around and went to the backyard.

"Sister Su, do you know that Jingxuan Zen Master?" Biyue said curiously.

"It's an old man!" Su Jin said lightly.

"Oh......"

It didn't take long for the little monk who took the jade pendant and went to deliver the message had already returned, "Amitabha, this female benefactor, Master Jingxuan, please go and talk alone!" ”

"You stay here, I'll go back." Su Jin commanded.

"Yes, girl." Bi Xi responded.

Su Jin followed the guidance of the little monk, walked through the backyard, and came to a very secluded and remote independent Zen courtyard. A coiled old tree, a dense green bamboo, and the front of the magnificent scene, but incompatible.

Su Jin pushed open the half-hidden door, and an independent small Buddha hall appeared in front of him, on the futon, an old monk with pale sideburns, a wooden fish, and a Ming Sutra.

Su Jin slowly stepped into the room, stopped not far behind the old monk, looked at the old monk in front of him who seemed to be unaware of Su Jin's arrival, smiled lightly, and raised his voice, "Who said the words 'under the nest, there are no eggs'?" But I don't believe it, isn't this a living example? ”

The old monk's movements slowly stopped, but he didn't get up, but only said in a harmonious voice, "You, it's Miss Mi'er!" I am fortunate to be able to see Miss again in this life, and I have no regrets! The old monk said, his voice was old and low, but it was quite powerful.

Su Jin sneered, "The person you are referring to is now long gone, and the person standing here at this moment is surnamed Su Mingjin!" It's just that now, should I call you Zen Master Jingxuan, or Master Lin? ”

The old monk smiled faintly, "As Lord Su said, the original Master Lin is also long gone, and what is in front of the donor at this moment is just an old monk who is more than a few years old, and his law name is Jingxuan." ”

"Yes! I thought that now you should be famous, clothed and fed, and recuperate for a long time, but I don't want to be hidden in a small Zen courtyard in this Lingta Temple. Spend your days with the ancient Buddha of the green lantern. Could it be that Zhong Jing is not generous enough to you, or is it because you know that your sins are too heavy and you want to seek a trace of salvation and solace in Buddhism? ”

Su Shi said that Lao Na was speechless to defend, and Lao Na never had the luxury of hoping that there would be any redemption for this sin. Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and Lao Na also knows that he will eventually be the one who will go to hell! It's just that since Master Su Shi has survived, he shouldn't come back! ”

"You are wrong, as long as I survive, I will definitely come back, and at all costs!"

"The Kesi people have passed away, and now after more than ten years, what can the benefactor change when he returns?"

"This, it's not what Zen Master Jingxuan needs to know!" Su Jin said lightly.

"If Master Su Shi wants to kill Lao Na, just do it, more than sixty years of his life is enough!"

"Kill you?" Su Jin sneered, "I'm just a weak woman who is powerless, what are you doing to kill you?" What's more, I still expect you to take a good look at how I managed to bring down all this that Zhong Jing cared about step by step, to uncover the truth of the year, it is naturally indispensable to have the proof of you, a key person, if I kill you now, how can I have to pay for the loss? ”

The old monk closed his eyes, sighed long, and said lightly, "The person who comes with the wind and rain often gets wet first, and that is himself." ”

"You're right, but it's a pity that from the very beginning, I didn't want to be alone!"

"Amitabha Buddha ......"

"Do you regret it very much, when you were under the Jinling City Gate, you obviously recognized me, but why didn't you cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but let me escape safely?"

"One thought is good, one thought is evil, between good and evil, there is no conclusion. The deceased has passed away, but the living people have to endure endless pain of losing their loved ones, how can the donor know that I let the donor leave, not so that the donor will live to suffer more than die? ”

"Indeed! Under the scourge of the annihilation of the clan, those who survive will suffer much more than those who have passed away, but Master Jingxuan, aren't you the same? Over the years, you may not have had a good time alive, right? ”

"Get rid of distractions, but ask for peace of mind!"

"But do you want to be still?" Su Jin sneered, "You have a false fabricated incriminating evidence, a piece of false testimony, and you have ruined the lives of 721 people from the Xiao family, can you still be calm?" ”

This time, the old monk was silent.

"So you can't, right? Even if you try so hard to make yourself forget about them, forget everything about the past! But you can't! ”

"Lao Na should settle down, if Master Su Shi has nothing else to do, please go back!" The old monk said lightly, turning over a page of the scriptures, and the sound of the wooden fish sounded again, just like what Su Jin had seen and heard when he came.

"Yes! Master Jingxuan, then let's have a period later! Su Jin sneered, then turned around and walked away quickly.

"There is no period, there is a period, there is no period...... the old monk murmured to himself, the scriptures were lifted away with the breeze, the arms moved slightly, and the wooden fish chirped softly.

After Su Jin stepped out of the inner Zen courtyard, Bi Xi hurried to meet him. "Girl, the acting princess has already arrived at the temple, but the little master just now didn't let me in, so I couldn't inform you in time."

"It doesn't matter, as long as she hasn't left yet, it's too late." Su Jin walked as he walked. "In the future, pay more attention to the movements of Zen Master Jingxuan, and report it immediately if there is anything special."

"Yes, girl."

When I returned to the big Buddha hall of the former temple, there were many more pilgrims coming in and out of the hall, and the little monk who came to receive Su Jin and a few people was no longer the one before, "Is your abbot here?" Su Jin asked.

"Back to the donor, the abbot is receiving a distinguished guest, and I am afraid that I will not be able to get out for a while. If you ask for an abbot, you will have to wait at least two or three more hours. The little monk replied.

There is no need to guess, the "distinguished guest" he mentioned in his mouth is naturally the acting princess.

"It's okay, I happen to know this distinguished guest, you just tell me where they are now, I'll see them myself!" Su Jin smiled.

"But this ......" the little monk was a little embarrassed, and only after half a loud voice did he hesitate to say, "The little monk told the donor, and the donor went to find it by himself, and the little monk did not lead the way, can you?" ”

Su Jin smiled and nodded.

"Go out from here, turn left, and follow the stone path, there is a small artificial pool, and the abbot is in the pavilion next to the pool."

"Thank you."

"Amitabha Buddha ......"
