The afternoon sun lazily shines on this mountain full of Buddha sounds. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

And in the deepest part of this Lingyin Temple, there is a meditation room, the doors and windows of the meditation room are closed, full of ancient atmosphere.

Outside the meditation room, there is a tall Bodhi tree, although the old tree is old, but the branches are luxuriant, which can shelter from the wind and rain.

Under the old tree, there is a bluestone round table engraved with a Go board. The round table is neither big nor small, and can seat four people.

And next to this stone table, there are three people sitting.

Wang Zhengnan is sitting opposite to Master Kongzhi, presiding over Wuxiang, sitting in the middle of the two.

Because the little monk and Shi Wuwei are still young, they are naturally not qualified to sit down.

Therefore, the four of them stood aside and listened to the conversation of these people.

Wang Zhengnan looked at the pot of spirits in Master Kongzhi's hand with a worried expression, and said respectfully, "Master, the Dao Sect has received news a few days ago that the news of the 'Fire Lotus' blooming has spread in the area of the Flame Mountain in the Western Regions. And the senior brother in charge has already sent his disciples to get it, once he obtains the 'Fire Lotus', the juniors should personally send it to Shaomu Mountain! ”。

Master Kongzhi smiled kindly, the wrinkles on his face almost covering his small eyes, leaving only a gap.

He didn't speak immediately, but took a sip of the wine in the jade pot first.

In the emerald green spout, the same jade-like elixir flowed.

This wine is very strong, so strong that it is difficult to open your eyes, so strong that Shi Wuwei, who is three steps away, feels his stomach churning.

However, even with such a strong wine, after it entered the throat, there was not the slightest expression on the master's face.

It seems that he has become accustomed to drinking wine as if it were drinking water.

"Hahaha, the mind of the Taoist Sect, the old man has it. It's just that there is no cure for the poison in my body, and even if I get the 'Fire Lotus', I can only delay it."

The master put down the wine jug, looked at the other party kindly, and continued to smile, "So, if you have that kind of kung fu, it is better to send a few jars of spirits, and this medicinal effect is not inferior to that 'fire lotus'."

As soon as the master's self-deprecating words were spoken, Wang Zhengnan's face also changed slightly, and he became a little unbearable.

In fact, if any monk said these words of Master Kongzhi, Wang Zhengnan would regard it as disrespectful.

But these words came out of the mouth of Master Kongzhi, and he only felt an indescribable sense of regret in his heart.

It's a pity because he knows very well that just more than 20 years ago, before he became famous in the rivers and lakes, the cultivation of this master of empty wisdom had reached the peak of the third grade, and he was the most promising person in the Buddhist sect and even in the world to break through the fourth grade.

However, providence often always makes people.

Just when everyone in the rivers and lakes thought that the next person who had reached the fourth grade would be the master of the Buddha's Empty Wisdom, this master was poisoned that night.

And there is no cure for this poison. Although it will not kill people immediately, it will slowly eat away at the cultivator's internal strength until the true qi is exhausted.

Thinking of this, Wang Zhengnan's heart gave birth to a sense of guilt.

Because he also knew very well that the person who poisoned Master Kongzhi was also once a senior brother of his Dao Sect.

It is precisely because of this that in the past twenty years, the Taoist Sect has spared no effort to find ways to collect the elixir in the world, wanting to cure the poison in the master's body.

But what is helpless is that since the birth of this poison, no one has ever survived.

………

Master Kongzhi saw that his previous words had already made the junior brother and the cute little apprentice beside him look sad, so he smiled again and said with relief.

"Hey, but you and Senior Nephew Zhang don't need to worry too much. Although the poison in the old man's body has existed for more than 20 years, he has never been able to help me. Therefore, as long as you are accompanied by spirits, it is not difficult to live for another two or three years."

And looking at the round table, the discussion of several people, Shi Wuwei also noticed something.

In fact, before coming to this Lingyin Temple, his impression of this highly respected Buddhist monk was only on the surface.

After all, the little monk never really talked about his master on weekdays.

But now, the monk in front of him who likes to drink spirits seems to have been hit by an indissolvable poison, and this poison seems to be alleviated only with the help of spirits.

"This master seems to be the same age as the master. It's just that I don't know if the master has ever seen the master? ”。 Shi Wuwei thought to himself.

Shi Wuwei was a little curious.

So many famous and decent heads have to come here to meet this master, which is enough to explain the status of the other party in this river and lake.

He wondered if the other party would also know his master.

It's just that the conversation at this time doesn't allow him to interject.

Therefore, he can only let go of the curiosity in his heart first.

……

A moment later, when the conversation on some trivial matters was over, Wang Zhengnan said with a worried expression.

"Master, the rivers and lakes are already in chaos. Now all the major sects have gathered in the city. Therefore, the younger generation came this time to invite the master to participate in the martial arts conference held in the Huamanlou five days later."

The time of this martial arts conference was not set by him, but by the rest of the major sects.

Although the Diancang Sect and the Yaochi Immortal Sect have not yet arrived, the situation is urgent at the moment, if these two major sects have not arrived in the next five days, then this martial arts conference will still be held as scheduled.

Master Kongzhi smiled and said, "I already know about this matter, and Lao Qu went down the mountain and went south this time to resolve this dispute between the rivers and lakes. Therefore, in the martial arts conference after these five days, the Buddha should participate."

In fact, resolving disputes in the rivers and lakes is one purpose, but he also has another purpose.

That is, he wanted to meet his cute little apprentice earlier.

Wang Zhengnan saw that the purpose of Master Kongzhi going south was to resolve this dispute between the rivers and lakes, and immediately showed a trace of joy on his face, and said, "With the master coming forward, this is the blessing of the rivers and lakes, I think the southerners should also do some restraint."

Seeing that the junior was so sincerely complimenting himself, Master Kongzhi also laughed out loud with 'hahaha'.

And after this laughter, Wang Zhengnan talked a little more about trivial matters on the rivers and lakes.

Finally, after Yunyun said a few words such as the master to take care of his body, he got up to say goodbye and prepared to go down the mountain.

But just as he got up, Master Kongzhi raised his head slightly, looking at Shi Wuwei and Mu Yiyi, who had been standing aside and had never spoken.

"You two are Lu Xianren's apprentices?"

When the senior brother and sister saw the master's question, they directly surrendered.

"The younger generation Shi Wuwei, meet the master of Kongzhi".

"Junior Mu Yiyi, meet Master Kongzhi".

Master Kongzhi laughed kindly once again, and said, "Hahaha, no need to be polite."

After the laughter, I saw his very compassionate eyes, looking at Shi Wuwei and the others, and continued, "There are still five days before the martial arts conference is held, so these five days, you two will stay in the temple."

As soon as these words came out, Shi Wuwei and the others were stunned.

Obviously, they didn't know why the Master was staying with them.

Wang Zhengnan saw that the two of them were looking at each other, and immediately faced them and said with a smile.

"Senior brother and sister, haven't you thanked the master for his teachings?"

He knew very well that Master Kongzhi had a heart for talent and wanted to teach one or two.

And after he said this, the two brothers and sisters reacted, and after looking at each other, they arched their hands and said in unison.

"Teachings of Master Xie".

"Teachings of Master Xie".
