The peach blossoms are blooming, and this is the most beautiful time of the year in Taoyuan Village. Children play here, old people walk here, and couples hold hands and wander slowly. Some have big bellies, and some lead children less than three years old, enjoying this fairyland-like paradise.

Yu Yi plucked a peach blossom and held him in the palm of his hand, a smile on the corner of his mouth, because this was the biggest peach blossom he had seen in the peach orchard. Overjoyed, he raised the peach blossom in his hand and ran to his parents. The old man and the old man held hands, and the smiles on their faces were like this blooming flower, colorful and beautiful. But at this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, full of dark clouds, and a whole strong wind blew towards the peach orchard, blowing all the peach blossoms all over the ground, flying in the air non-stop. Yu Yi opened his eyes with difficulty, only to see countless petals flying in the air, and he couldn't see a person or a thing. Yu Yi desperately shouted: "Dad! Mother! ”

After the strong wind, only Yu Yi was left in the entire peach orchard, and all the peach trees instantly became dry branches, bare, and all the peach blossoms were now gradually falling like snow. Yu Yi kept turning in circles in place, and kept shouting, "Dad! Mother! Everyone, where have you all been? ”

"Daddy! Mother! Where have you been? Come back soon. Yu Yi was lying on the bed, sweating all over his head, shaking his head constantly. A monk or nun took a freshly soaked wet cloth and gently placed it on Yu Yi's forehead. Yu Yi opened his eyes suddenly, screamed, and wanted to get up, but he felt an unbearable pain behind him, and he couldn't help but sigh.

The monk and nun immediately helped Yu Yi to the bed, "Donor, you are seriously injured and have not healed, so don't move." Yu Yi was very surprised when he saw that it was a little monk, and couldn't help asking, "Master, may I ask where I am?" ”

The little monk covered Yu Yi's bed quilt and said with a smile on his face: "This is the Huasheng Temple, you are seriously injured, and you were sent back by my second master to heal." You can rest assured, the patriarch has already said that you are out of danger of life, and you only need to meditate and recuperate from your injuries, and you will be healed in a few days. ”

"Dare to ask who your ancestor is?"

"Naturally, it is the abbot of this temple, "Zen Master Kudu". ”

······

In the Scripture Pavilion, an elderly man with a long beard on his face sat cross-legged; Dressed in a golden robe, his fat face was wrinkled with furrows and a faint smile; Holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, he is silently reciting scriptures.

A few crisp knocks on the door broke the peaceful atmosphere, and Zen Master Kongdu gradually opened his eyes, "Come in!" A monk and nun gently pushed open the door with a sweeper and walked in. Abbot, he woke up. ”

"It's good to wake up, how is his mood."

"My mood was relatively calm, but after asking me a lot of questions, I never spoke again."

"Hmmm... I'd better go see him! Zen Master Kongdu stood up and walked forward.

Yu Yi lay on the bed with tears in his eyes, the scene of that evening kept flashing through his mind, anger and hatred had completely consumed his mind at this time. At this time, he fantasized all the time about how to get revenge, and the once beautiful and harmonious family, as well as the beautiful village, disappeared like this, and could never come back.

With the sound of crisp footsteps, Zen Master Kongdu walked to Yu Yi's couch, saw Yu Yi's sad face, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. "Donor, donor, the abbot has come to visit you." The little monk shouted.

Yu Yi turned his head and saw a kind old man in front of him, looking at him with a smile. Yu Yi endured the pain and sat up with difficulty, and Zen Master Kongdu immediately walked forward, "You are seriously injured, so you should lie down!" But Yu Yi didn't lie down completely, leaned back on the bed, and wiped the tears from his eyes.

"Yu Yi thanks the abbot for saving his life, great kindness, ten thousand deaths will be repaid."

"Hahahaha, saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, the donor doesn't have to be polite."

Yu Yi lowered his head, his eyes were glazed, his face was haggard, he didn't know what to say, and he was not in the mood to say more at this time, after all, he was not yet free from pain and sorrow.

Master Kongdu knew that he was sad now and didn't want to talk more, so he took the initiative to ask, "The old man is here to ask the donor, I don't know what the donor's plans are after he recovers?" ”

Yu Yi slowly raised his head, with a hint of firm belief in his eyes, "Kill demons and eliminate demons, avenge my parents, and avenge my fellow villagers and elders in Taoyuan Village." ”

Zen Master Kongdu had already expected him to say this, so he said bluntly: "That master of the demon realm is like a cloud, if you go to take revenge, I am afraid that you will bury your life in vain." ”

"I want to go to the Four Great Sects to devote myself to learning arts, practice my life's skills, and go to the front to kill demons and demons in the future, so as to sacrifice my parents' spirits in the sky. I can't, I can't let my parents die in vain, I want to let them, let them pay with blood. Yu Yi burst into tears and said with tears in his eyes.

Zen Master Kongdu took out a handkerchief, handed it to Yu Yi, and held his hand tightly. "Child, it is a good thing to kill demons and demons for the people. My Huasheng Temple is also one of the four major sects, why don't you stay in the temple and I will teach you the exercises myself, what do you think? ”

"Yu Yi thanks the abbot for his love, but now that the revenge has not been avenged, how can I just enter the empty door and cut my hair to become a monk."

Zen Master Kongdu said with a smile: "Child, you are too worried, if you don't want to become a monk, you can lead the practice, and when you want to leave, the old man will not embarrass you." ”

After hearing Master Kongdu's words, Yu Yi was overjoyed, "If this is really the case, it will naturally be great, Yu Yi thanks the abbot for his reconstruction." ”

"Hey! Why do you still call me abbot. ”

Yu Yi was stunned for a while, then immediately reacted, and hurriedly said with both hands: "Master Xie!"

Zen Master Kongdu smiled like a child: "It seems that your understanding is okay!" Yu Yi! I have four retreat disciples, the first one is called Hui Ming, and he is still practicing in retreat in the secret room. The second is to save you back Huiyuan, and the third is called Huijing, who is a girl with a very high understanding. These three are all my proud disciples, and they have made great achievements in cultivation, and now they are the three protectors of my Huasheng Temple, and their martial arts are very strong.

"And what about the fourth?" Yu Yi asked suspiciously.

Zen Master Kongdu sighed, "The fourth one is called Huikong, and he is my favorite disciple before, and he is very intelligent. It's a pity that he was troubled by infinite strength and desire, and gradually lost his mind and went crazy. I killed many brothers and sisters, burned down the Guanyin Temple, and I abolished my martial arts and drove me out of the temple. ”

"I didn't expect such a thing to happen in this holy place of Buddhism." Yu Yi couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.

"Alright, you have a good rest! When you are cured, I will come to see you. After saying goodbye to Yu Yi, he walked out with the little monk.

"Master!" As soon as Master Kongdu walked out of the door, he heard someone calling him, and when he looked up, it turned out to be his second disciple Huiyuan.

"Did you hear it all?" Zen Master Kongdu asked.

"Yes, the disciple has something to ask the master to ask the master."

Zen Master Kongdu opened the little monk and brought Huiyuan to his meditation room, Huiyuan was afraid that the partition wall would have ears, so he looked around carefully and carefully closed the door.

"Do you want to ask, why do I want to accept him as a closed disciple and pass on his skills?"

Hui Yuan was shocked in his heart, but he didn't expect that the master had already seen his thoughts, "It is this matter, the master has never accepted a closed disciple for more than 20 years, nor has he taken care of the cultivation of the exercises, but just let the three of us senior brothers and sisters guide them." I don't know why today he suddenly wants to accept that young man as a closed disciple and let him lead the practice, Master is doing this, I am afraid it will cause doubts and dissatisfaction among all the teachers and brothers! ”

Zen Master Kongdu sighed deeply, "I don't know this, it's just that this young man is not only shallow but also kind-hearted, if he is allowed to go to other sects, I am afraid that he will be carried away by hatred and strength, possessed by demons, and go astray!" Keeping him here and letting him listen to the Dharma more is only good for him, not bad. ”

"Then why didn't the master persuade him to let go of the hatred in his heart and convert to Buddhism, but he still had to teach him martial arts, if he went out to cause trouble in the future, it would not have a good impact on our Huasheng Temple!"

"The Buddha said, kindness is rare, I just like his kindness, so I accept him as a disciple, if he is the one who causes trouble, how can I accept him as a disciple." Zen Master Kongdu said with a smile.

When Hui Yuan heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "But Master, the internal injury he suffered was the true qi of the water attribute, and it was full of yang energy, and those people who slaughtered Taoyuan Village were clearly not from the demon clan!" ”

Zen Master Kongdu waved his hand, "I know, I know, don't mention this matter to him, let him think that the demon did it, the rights and wrongs of this world, leave it to him to slowly understand it in the future!" It's enough for us to do what we have to do. ”

"But..." Huiyuan was about to speak, but was stopped by the gesture of the Zen master Kongdu.

"This matter is settled, don't say more, the future will be solved when it happens in the future. How can we monks be like the rest of the world, each of us sweeping the snow in front of our own door, regardless of the frost on the tiles of others? ”

Huiyuan felt ashamed after hearing this, and never mentioned it again.
