Hearing Bai Guzi's words, the unbearable expression of the past on the face of Jiebodhi disappeared in an instant, and he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Second senior brother, let's go to my eldest brother's house, forget it!" Whether it's life or death, or whether he's human or not, I'm afraid he doesn't want to see me. The second senior brother's heart, I understand it. ”

"It's okay, I'll just say it casually, and I don't plan to really go over. Even if you want to, we'll stand far away and watch you pass. ”

Precept Bodhi: "......"

Brother, are you talking about human words?

At that moment, after packing up a little, the four Tan Mo brothers picked up their bags and walked out.

The Dao Gu next door has already left, and the doors and windows of the other two monks' houses in this West Bamboo Garden are closed, and most of the monks inside have not woken up.

Walking out, Tan Mo saw a lot of courtyards with closed doors and windows, as if no one was there. However, at the gate of such a courtyard, there is often a monk sitting and chanting softly.

When these monks saw Tan Mo and them, some of them did not react, but some of them were bald, although they didn't know each other, they also folded their hands and said hello.

Tan Mo took the opportunity to ask a kind-faced monk, "Senior brother, may I ask what you are doing here?" ”

"This courtyard lives in Master Su, and on the opposite side is Master Zhou, these two are not very good at dealing with each other, if one of them wakes up first and finds that the other side has not woken up, I am afraid that they will take the opportunity to make trouble." The monk replied with a smile.

"I see, thank you brother, brother has worked hard."

"There's no way, but I'm okay, Uncle Xuliu is responsible for it, it's a headache." When the monk said this, he had a look of sympathy.

Tan Mo didn't ask, but directly said goodbye to the monk.

"A few senior brothers and brothers looked at the students, thinking that it was the first time to come, after you go out, no matter what you see, don't show surprise, just as usual. Don't have different colors, or you will be entangled. The monk said this again, and then sat down and recited the sutra to himself.

"Thank you, brother." Tan Mo clasped his hands together.

The four of them walked out of the Niutou Temple, and then the mirror void looked at Bai Guzi and asked, "Second Senior Brother, when you just came out, did you show a different color?" Does Xuhuai have a reminder for you? ”

"Nope." Bai Guzi shook his head, "But the last time I came out with my junior brother, I encountered those strange things, so I was calm and didn't show any different colors, which was really a fluke." ”

Jing Void looked at Bai Guzi and thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Second Senior Brother, how much money did you hide from Senior Brother Abbot?" ”

"No, don't talk nonsense, is the poor monk the kind of person who hides money?" Bai Guzi hurriedly clarified himself.

The mirror void showed a look of disbelief, and said to Tan Mo and them: "Our second senior brother doesn't seem to have been dropped by anything strange. ”

"I won't talk to you, you all heard it just now, why don't you hurry up and have an expression with the little junior brother?"

Hearing this, Tan Mo raised his face and looked at Bai Guzi.

What is his expression?

Then he looked at the Mirror Void and the Ring Bodhi, and saw that both of them put away their expressions changed, and then they looked expressionless.

Tan Mo: "......"

Walking into the county seat, Tan Mo saw a lively scene, and the street was a scene of busy traffic. Compared with what I saw last time, Peony County here looks like a big city, extremely prosperous. There are a few red-haired and red-eyed foreigners, but compared to the entire population, they are a little insignificant, and the few are ignored.

Tan Mo passed by Bayantu's shop again, only to see that the door of this store was wide open, and Bayantu was warmly greeting customers.

Tan Mo and they didn't stop, and came directly to the river.

There were boats on the river, and there were quite a few, but there was no one who had brought them.

So Bai Guzi asked everyone to wait.

However, left and right, etc., can't wait for people.

Bai Guzi said: "That boatman may have come and left." ”

At this time, a young man who had just come out of the cabin saw Bai Guzi and greeted him from afar: "But the Bai Guzi Master of the Lotus Temple? ”

When Bai Guzi heard this, he folded his hands and responded: "The poor monk is exact, I don't know what is the matter with the donor?" ”

"It's really a master of white bones, but a few of you want to go back, so get on the boat so quickly." The young man's face immediately showed a look of joy.

Bai Gu was stunned, but he still took Tan Mo and them on the boat.

After going up, the young man looked at them and said, "In the past few days, my father has told me every night that he wants me to come to Peony County to pick you up, so that I can repay Master Lotus for saving his life." ”

When Tan Mo heard this, his heart was shocked.

If what this man said was true, then on that day, they were not on a ghost ship? But when they got on the boat that day, it was clearly daytime.

"Thank you, donor." Of course, Bai Guzi also heard it, he couldn't bear to show a different color, and thanked him in a calm tone.

The young man didn't talk nonsense, and after inviting them to sit down, he immediately set sail.

When I came, I took a boat and walked the waterway for a day and a night, but this time I went back, it took less than half a day.

Tan Mo asked: "Donor, may I ask how many waterways are there from this peony county to Luowan Town?" ”

"There are five or six, but this distance is the closest, and it won't take half a day if it's downwind, and the other waterways have to pass through the places occupied by the two kings, not to mention paying more, and it's easy to have accidents, so we have always taken this waterway." The young man said.

Tan Mo was now sure that when they came, the boat they were on was indeed not quite right.

After getting off the boat, Bai Guzi thanked him repeatedly, and then wanted to give him the silver, but the young man always refused, so Tan Mo took the opportunity to ask his name, saying that he wanted to help the other party pray in front of the Buddha.

The young man couldn't help but smile: "My name is Liu Fangqi, I heard my father say that it is still the name that Master Lotus later helped me change." ”

"Thank you, the poor monk and the junior brother are going back to the temple." Bai Guzi folded his hands and thanked him again.

"You're welcome, the masters go all the way."

……

Walking to the foot of the Lotus Temple, Tan Mo saw Zhong Shenxiu sitting by the well to draw water.

"Senior brother, why are you at the foot of the mountain?" Under the signal of Bai Guzi's eyes, Tan Mo went over and asked.

"I had nothing to do in the temple, so I was sent down the mountain by the abbot and asked me to go to the next town to do something, and now I just came back from finishing things." Zhong Shenxiu said.

"Senior brother, how about going up the mountain together?" Bai Guzi showed an expression that was not what I expected, and then asked.

"Naturally, it's no problem." Zhong Shenxiu smiled, then got up, patted his buttocks, shook off the dust, and after following the white bones, he asked, "Second Senior Brother, have you come back from accompanying Fifth Senior Brother to Peony County?" Can the road go smoothly? ”

"Smooth is smooth, it's just that my legs are a little weak at this time, go back and talk to my senior brother, and by the way, ask him if the old man saved an old man from the boat family back then." Bai Guzi's face is indescribable.
