In Qingyun House, Qing Yu and Ding Yan were playing chess.

The wooden chessboard of the fragrant tree lies quietly on the low round table tea machine, and the black and white jade chess pieces dance staggered between the four pointed stars.

The room was quiet and could only hear the sound of falling children.

However, Shen An's appearance shattered the peace in the house.

"Master Dingyan, Master Qingyu." Shen An gestured to the two.

Qing Yu turned his head first and smiled at Shen An, "You're here?" ”

Shen An bowed, glanced at Master Dingyan who was still staring at the chessboard, and then turned to Qing Yu and said, "I only heard that Master Qing Yu loves the qin, but I don't know that the master is also immersed in chess?" ”

"Zi said, full of food all day long, no intentions, no gamers?" Qing Yu smiled: "It's just that I have nothing to do to pass the time." ”

"Master Qing Yu also has some knowledge of Kong Sheng's words?" Shen An's eyes were as bright as a hole candle in Shangqing Yu, and he had a slight curiosity and admiration for this woman who escaped from the Taoist Gate to the Buddhist Gate.

"I've read it a few times, it's useless to cultivate the Tao, but I do have some insight into humanity." Qing Yu chuckled and said: "If you are tired of reading the scriptures, you will change to a few miscellaneous books and read them, maybe you can find the way for all things in the world to coexist from the way of the hundred schools." ”

Listening to the glutinous and soft voice of this beautiful woman, Shen An thought narrowly: Master Qingyu should indeed withdraw from the marriage, not to mention the current uncle, Su Wuwu decades ago is still not worthy of her.

"By the way, Brother Guangling said before, is there something wrong with the master? I don't know what to look for? Shen An bowed and asked.

Qing Yu smiled: "I just want to talk to Lord Shen Shi, it's a pity that I couldn't help Master Zhao." ”

Shen An was shocked, and he quickly glanced at Ding Yan beside him, who was still calm and leisurely, as if he was pondering where to go next.

This old man did not react to what Qing Yu said.

"Master Dingyan also knows about Lord Zhao's affairs." Knowing what Shen An was worried about, Qing Yu hurriedly reassured: "The one who originally wanted to help Miss Zhao prepare for the golden bowl and smuggle her out of the golden bowl was Master Dingyan. ”

Shen An blinked, slightly ironic - this old bald man almost killed someone's mother, but he almost saved someone's daughter.

Fate is sometimes very interesting.

"Thank you, Master Dingyan."

Although the matter was not done, but other people's hearts always have to be thanked, Shen An was ready to make a big gift to Ding Yan, but his waist had not yet bent down, Ding Yan waved his hand lightly, and a warm breeze hit his face from the bottom to the top.

Although he didn't blow Shen An away, he forced him to stand up again.

This palm is ingenious, and it is so mastered! This cultivation is really worthy of being one of the eight heads of Buddhism!

"Lord Shen's gift, the old man doesn't dare to accept it." The old monk put down the chess pieces in his hand, turned to face Shen An and said, "On the contrary, the old man should thank Master Shen Shi for untying a knot in his heart." ”

Shen An frowned: "What the master means ......"

Ding Yan stared at Shen An and said, "Yesterday's incident...... It's all because of the old man......"

"What happened back then?" Shen An was inexplicable, and then his heart flashed like lightning: "Could it be ...... Master, what do you mean...... Ma Changqing's pursuit and killing of Zhao Hu's mother? That's not your fault, Master......"

"Not really." The sound of Ding Yan was dying, but it revealed a coldness as hard as steel: "Back then, the route of Zhen Shizhu's escape, Lao Wei deliberately leaked it to Master Ma! ”

Shen An was stunned, and then he said vigilantly: "I don't know what the master means by telling me this?" ”

Ding Yan squinted his eyes, looked at Shen An carefully, and asked, "You don't question why Lao Wei is so hypocritical?" ”

"How can I question the Master?" Shen Anxin scolded secretly, and on the surface, he had to make a respectful appearance: "The master's move is also for the safety of the mortal realm, Zhao Hu's mother is a spy in the demon domain, and there is nothing wrong with the master wanting to cut the grass and eradicate the roots." If you want to kill someone with a knife, it's just for the sake of the reputation of Buddhism, I just don't understand what the master is trying to do when you sue for this matter? ”

"Lao Wei is not for the reputation of Buddhism...... Ding Yan's voice has a tiredness that cannot be hidden: "Lao Gao is afraid that he will kill someone, so he will never be able to find his original heart again......"

"Isn't there a saying in Buddhism that 'subduing demons and subduing demons'?" Shen An finally couldn't hold back the disdain in his heart and sneered: "What's more, as long as you put down the butcher's knife, you can become a Buddha on the ground, how can you not find your original heart?" Master, why do you want to play this trick of killing people with a knife? ”

"If you put down the butcher's knife, can you really become a Buddha on the spot?" Ding Yan was not angry, but folded his hands, and Amitabha Buddha said: "It's just self-deception." ”

"If you don't count, you will suffer from it! Master, you are a person from the mortal realm, and it will never be a big mistake to kill people from the standpoint of the mortal realm. ”

A sense of absurdity came to Shen An's head, in his previous life, he was a Buddhist in the mortal realm, and he was compassionate on his lips, but he wanted to kill Shen An in order to "protect the mortal realm", but now he is in the position of the mortal realm, and he persuaded Ding Yan not to worry about killing people, which is really ridiculous.

"The old man is in the worldly realm, and his heart longs for the Pure Land Paradise. But the old man was afraid that if there was blood on his hands, he would never be able to enter the pure land in his heart again. Ding Yan paused and said with a wry smile: "When you kill one person, you will want to kill the second person, and after killing two people, you will feel that it doesn't matter if the third person dies, maybe one day, when the old man doesn't realize it, his body will be covered with blood, and he will never be able to wash it again." ”

Shen An opened his mouth, he didn't know how to refute.

Because, as long as you kill the first person, you can feel like you can kill 10,000 people without mind, Shen An really knows it too well.

So Shen An snorted coldly: "Isn't it also self-deception to kill people with a knife?" Or do you really think that if Zhao Hu's mother and daughter really died in the watershed realm because of the killer sent by Ma Changqing, this matter has nothing to do with you, master? ”

"Indeed...... But self-deception...... I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me...... It took Lao Wei ten years to find out that even if he escaped the cause and effect, he couldn't escape his own heart, so it was better to make up his mind at the beginning, even if he suffered the cause of evil, it was a big deal to pay her back the cause and effect! A hint of murderous intent suddenly flashed in Ding Yan's eyes: "Back then, Lao Wei should have killed Master Zhen with his own hands!" ”

Shen Anxin was stunned, and suddenly became vigilant, and said loudly: "I still don't understand, what is the intention of the master and me at this time?" ”

"Master Shen, in this world, there is cause and effect." Ding Yan said sincerely: "Shen Shi hangs the pot to help the world, is kind and giving, and has a good reputation, and the good causes you plant will one day get good results." However, the ruler of 'being worthy of the heart' is not easy to put in place, and if you bend it slightly, it will be doomed. I hope that Master Shen Shi will remember this sentence of my old monk. No matter what happens, don't forget your true heart. ”

Shen An frowned, not knowing why Ding Yan said this.

"Uncle Dingyan has always been deeply sorry for the infant Zhao Hu girl." Qing Yu interjected: "Although there are constant disputes between the two domains, the child is innocent. Uncle Shi always felt guilty for failing to deal with the matter of Zhen Shizhu, and he named the two descendants who sat down, one was called Yuan Shame and the other was Yuan Regret, precisely because he had never forgiven himself. ”

Shen An was stunned and said, "Regret? The disciple of Master Dingyan is called Yuan Regret? ”

Qing Yu said: "That's right! He gave these two names to his disciples in order to always remember the shame and remorse at that time. ”

"Wait a minute, Master Dingyan, do you have a disciple named Yuanhui?" Shen An hurriedly asked.

Ding Yan didn't know why Shen An asked this, he glanced at him strangely, and then shook his head slightly.

Shen An was suddenly annoyed: Uncle, you are not old yet, why are you like this! I got the wrong person for a long time! I knew that this seat would not have come!

"Yuan Hui...... It's also a good Buddha name. Ding Yan's eyes flashed with cash, then dimmed again, and he turned to face the chessboard again. The right hand reached into the chess box, and when it was raised again, a sunspot was sandwiched between the index finger and middle finger.

Ding Yan touched his beard as if absent-mindedly, and said casually: "The incense of Buddhism is insufficient, and it is time to accept a new disciple, and the next disciple will be called Yuanhui." ”

"But the old man heard that Lord Shen's sword boy is a void spirit root? I wonder if you are willing to form a relationship with my Buddhism and let this child enter my Buddhism? ”

Ding Yan didn't glance in Shen An's direction anymore, and changed back to his previous appearance of staring obsessively at the chessboard in front of him, he weighed the sunspot in his hand, hesitating, as if he didn't know where to go next.

"I'm really sorry, I'm afraid that An Puyu's child has no chance with Buddhism." Shen An replied stiffly, slightly annoyed in his heart: It must be that the stinky bald donkey who accepted An Puyu thief will not die, so he asked Ding Yan to ask for it.

"Oh, no fate, since there is no fate, then forget it." Ding Yan was not reluctant, he just turned the sunspot between his fingers and said, "It's just Master Shen, remember to take care of that child more." Those with ethereal spirit roots have a weak temperament, no heart and no desire, and if they become great things, they are not holy and demonic. ”

"That child is not a heartless person." Regarding Ding Yan's evaluation, Shen An was slightly unhappy: "If the master has seen him, he will know that he is no different from ordinary children." ”

Besides, the person who entered the demon has already been determined.

This seat is the only demon in this world.

================================================================================

"Is it really okay to let him leave like this?"

After Shen An left, Qing Yu turned to Ding Yan and asked worriedly: "Si Ming Zhenren said that this Shen An should be the Heavenly Demon Lone Star......

"Qingyu." Ding Yan replied, "What do you think of this person?" ”

"Me?" Qing Yu tilted his head, thought for a moment, and sighed: "Guangling said that he is a good boy. ”

"Since he's a good boy, let him go." Ding Yan finally decided where to put the chess pieces, and with a bang, there was no regret.

"However, Si Ming Zhenren said......"

"After all, it's just a position." Ding Yan looked at the chess pieces in front of him with satisfaction, lived a little bit, and said slowly: "How much selfishness is mixed in the prophecy of Si Ming Zhenren?" ”

Just like borrowing Ma Changqing's hand, will Buddhism become the sword of the commander?

"But Si Ming Zhenren can't lie, his Dao heart oath allows him to only tell the truth, doesn't it?" Qing Yu asked.

"He doesn't need to lie, he just needs to hide what he knows, something else, and that's enough."

"But ......" Qing Yu still didn't give up: "Uncle Shi, you said that when you should have killed the demon girl with your own hands, I thought you would kill Shen An...... Have you changed your mind? ”

"Before...... A long, long time ago, Buddhism could persuade people to be good, and Taoism could persuade people to accumulate virtue, because everyone in the world knows that it is possible to become an immortal. Seeing that Qing Yu had no intention of playing, Ding Yan put down the chess pieces in his hand, and regained his drowsy appearance on weekdays: "All because the people of the world have hope, so even if they suffer from a thousand years of war, mortals can still survive, and monks can still be bright and upright, and they can still walk that righteous path." ”

However, hopes have long been dashed.

Of course Qing Yu knew what that meant—since Shen Tianyuan flew into the sky and became an immortal, no one in the mortal realm became an immortal.

Everyone in the world is trapped in the world, so it is natural to do their best to fight for a place in the midst of intrigue and deceit.

"Qing Yu, do you know that in addition to hope and the Pure Land, is there any other way to make the world let go of the resentment in their hearts?"

Without waiting for Qing Yu to answer, Ding Yan said loudly: "-That is to wait, the common enemy of all people appears." ”

There are some people in the world who are destined to be either saints - that is, demons!
