Chapter 51: Fate Meets
This chase is a whole night, if it weren't for Su Heng's eyes of reincarnation, I'm afraid he would have escaped a long time ago.
The other party's cunning, tenacity, and caution were even more unexpected than Su Heng expected.
The two of them almost circled around Wawu Mountain, the so-called ecstasy, as well as various cliffs and dangerous places, and they were even more flat under the feet of the two.
But even so, when the sun rose the next morning, he still lost sight of the other party.
Su Heng stood on a mountainside with a gloomy face, his eyes were red, and there were obvious dark circles under his eyes, which was obviously caused by the overuse of the eyes of reincarnation.
"You're in luck."
Just as Su Heng was about to return and study the stone chamber and the sarcophagus, he suddenly heard a bell from the mountain, which made his heart move inexplicably.
I remember that when I was on the train, Wu Ziyan once told him that there were high monks on Wawu Mountain, and if he could be found, he could resolve his grievances.
And the string of Buddhist beads that Nancy wore on her wrist, according to her words, was also her father who went up the mountain to find a monk to open the light when she was a child.
Could it be that the bell at this time is from the temple with high monks?
Thinking of this, he was no longer in a hurry to return, and turned around and walked towards the top of the mountain.
Since we are destined to come here, we naturally have to take a look.
I believe that the traveler has been chased all night, and at this moment, he is also looking for a place to recuperate, and it is impossible to return, so Tang Jiuge and the others will be fine in a short time.
With the sound of the bell, Su Heng came to the top of the mountain and found that there was a quaint temple in front of him, but the door plaque was empty, and no name was written.
Su Heng tidied up and stepped forward to knock on the door.
It was a long time before the door opened, revealing a small novice.
"Are you the honored guest that Master said?"
Xiao Shami looked to be only in his teens, with his head shaved, staring at Su Heng with a pair of bright big eyes, full of curiosity.
"Distinguished guests? Maybe it's a bad guy. Su Heng smiled slightly.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Shami shook his head very seriously and said: "Master said that you are a distinguished guest, then you must be a distinguished guest, yesterday the master said that there was a wicked guest coming to the door, and sure enough, it didn't take long for a very hateful person to come." ”
"Oh, what does that abominable man you said look like? What is the matter with him coming to your master? Su Heng asked.
"He's older than you, and I don't like him anyway." Xiao Shami said, as if he was afraid that Su Heng would not believe it, and said emphatically: "He will touch my head every time he comes, and he also said that he will eat all the chickens I raise." “
"By the way, when I eavesdropped on it before, it seemed like he said that he had a daughter who was a star."
With Xiao Shami's words, Su Heng immediately thought of Nan Ting.
It's just, what did he come yesterday for? Is there a purpose for repairing a broken bead?
However, this also made Su Heng sure that he was not looking for the wrong place.
"Madoka, don't be rude to your guests."
At this time, an old monk walked slowly, it was Master Zhiyuan.
His figure was a little tall, and although he looked like he was eighty or ninety years old, his face was full of wrinkles, but his body was still straight, and his eyes were like a deep pool, and he could hardly see the bottom.
In him, Su Heng saw a contradiction.
Obviously he is very old, as if he will fall at any moment, but there is a feeling of being strong and energetic.
"I've seen the master." Su Heng respectfully saluted the other party.
"You don't need to be polite, please come with me."
Master Zhiyuan said, stretched out his hand, and led Su Heng to the backyard.
In the courtyard, a huge tree almost covered most of the courtyard, and the gaps between the leaves of the golden light spilled on the clean ground.
Under the tree, there is a stone table.
After the two of them sat down, the little novice named Madoka struggled to hold a stove on the table, and skillfully prepared to put the kettle and tea set.
Looking at his actions, it is clear that he has not done it for a year or two.
During the whole process, neither Su Heng nor Master Zhiyuan spoke.
It wasn't until Xiao Shami left that Master Zhiyuan took off a string of Buddhist beads from his neck, looked at Su Heng calmly and said, "Would you like to listen to my chanting?" ”
"I can't ask for it."
Su Heng didn't expect the other party to take the initiative, and he was not surprised by his arrival, which was completely in line with the image of a master.
Of course, maybe Nan Ting had already told him something yesterday.
But no matter what, being able to be fortunate enough to hear the other party's chanting is undoubtedly an opportunity for Su Heng.
Chanting is not the same as chanting, and ordinary monks are not the same as real masters.
When Master Zhiyuan began to turn the Buddha beads in his hand, Su Heng couldn't help but be attracted, and some irritable thoughts were also inexplicably soothed.
Then, Master Zhiyuan began to chant the sutras, and his voice was not slow, and it was at the same frequency as the rotation of the Buddha beads.
Although there was nothing unusual on the other party's body, in Su Heng's feelings, at this moment, Master Zhiyuan's body was shrouded in a layer of soft light.
Unconsciously, even Su Heng didn't realize that he had closed his eyes, the expression on his face became softer and softer, his expression was stretched, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he was having some kind of sweet dream.
A trace of black qi drifted from his body, gradually becoming invisible.
I don't know how long it took, Su Heng opened his eyes, only to feel that the inside and outside of his body were transparent, and his whole body was extremely relaxed, as if he had unloaded his burden.
At the same time, his mind was also more active than ever, and his eyes seemed to be soaking in a hot spring, similar to the blessings he had received before.
The kettle on the table had already been boiling, and it was steaming out, and Master Zhiyuan was still sitting opposite, looking at him with a smile.
It took a while for Su Heng to come back to his senses.
He knew very well what this change in himself meant and how good it would be for him.
It is equivalent to washing away all the cause and effect and resentment that he had been contaminated by his previous murder, and it is also a blessing that is no less than ending the cause and effect obsession.
He even had the idea of staying here for a long time and listening to the other party's chanting.
Fortunately, as soon as this idea came out, it was snuffed out by him.
He knew very well that there was no such thing in this world that was not earned for nothing, and that this kind of chanting might occasionally be effective, but if it was done every day, I am afraid it would be of little use.
"Thank you, Master."
Su Heng got up and saluted Master Zhiyuan again, because the tiredness on the other party's face told him that this kind of thing is not easy even for a high monk, and it takes a lot of attention.
"You and I meet because of fate, I know you have many questions in your heart, but now, the time has not yet come." Master Zhiyuan looked at Su Heng and said.
"Haven't the time yet?"
Su Heng chewed on these words.
"Dare to ask the master, when will the time come? And what does this timing refer to? ”
Master Zhiyuan shook his head slightly, and did not answer Su Heng's question, but just took out a box and pushed it in front of Su Heng.
