Chapter 5: A Secret Letter
Lou Qingyue and Xu Manlu talked and laughed all the way, very happy, this was his happiest day in the past three years. Although he has a lot of questions, as long as he can be with Xu Manlu, it is when he is the happiest.
......
At night, Lou Qingyue still couldn't sleep, he had too many questions, he had a strong curiosity, and he also had a trace of uneasiness......
He doesn't know why he is uneasy, according to common sense, he should be happy, he has been looking for a lover for three years, and he finally found it, and he has seen so many magical characters, he shouldn't be worried. However, for some reason, in Lou Qingyue's heart, there was always a trace of uneasiness and worry lingering......
There are always many unexplained things in heaven and earth, but his worries began with that strange secret letter......
I remember that three days before coming to Cangnan Jinxiu, he was inquiring about Xu Manlu on Mount Emei, but at this time he received a strange letter.
Since Xu Manlu's family suddenly disappeared three years ago, Lou Qingyue's footsteps in looking for Xu Manlu have never stopped, he has been to all over the country in the past three years, but there has never been news of Xu Manlu, until one day, a friend of his moonlight in Chang'an City told him:
"Since you have been to so many places and there is no news, it is better to go back to Jinguan City to inquire about the news, maybe they have gone home, or maybe someone has come back to visit. ”
Lou Qingyue felt that there was some reason, so she went home to inquire for a few days, but there was still no news, and she couldn't help but feel depressed. One day, Ling'er, another of Lou Qingyue's childhood sweethearts, saw Lou Qingyue so depressed, so she gave Lou Qingyue a notice.
This Ling'er, Lou Qingyue, Xu Manlu and several others are all bosom friends from childhood to adulthood, and when they come and go, this girl's heart will inevitably be unsweet. Who made this Lou Qingyue a young genius again, and he is also the most beautiful man in Jinguan City, not only how many girls are dreaming of Lou Qingyue, but this Ling'er is of course no exception.
Ling'er was born lively and cute, with a cheerful personality, not as ladylike as Xu Manlu, but she was also born with ice and jade, beautiful and generous.
Lou Qingyue has always had only Xu Manlu in her heart, and she just treats Ling'er as her own sister, so Ling'er is often jealous, and she often cries alone when she seems to be strong on the surface.
The most beautiful, the most unforgettable, the most annoying, and the strangest thing in the world is a love word!
Ling'er already ate Xu Manlu's vinegar, so three years ago, Xu Manlu's family suddenly disappeared, she was the happiest, although she lost a good sister, but she had the opportunity to get her long-cherished brother Lou.
But in the past three years, she has never seen Lou Qingyue smile, Lou Qingyue has been looking for Xu Manlu for the past three years, so she rarely sees Lou Qingyue.
Seeing Brother Lou come back this time, she was overjoyed, he thought, it's been three years, Brother Lou shouldn't leave again this time.
But when he saw her brother Lou so sad and decadent, her heart was also broken, so she gave Lou Qingyue a note: "Brother Lou, why don't I go with you to find Sister Man, let's go to Mount Emei, there are a lot of people who go to play there every year, and there are also many strange people who go there to practice, maybe you can find out some news, and you have practiced there, you are more familiar with this place, maybe there will be some unexpected gains!"
"You're right, but I can only go alone, I can't take you with me......"
Speaking of this, Ling'er was in a hurry, she wanted to go to play with her brother Lou, let her brother Lou scatter his mind, and by the way, let him be alone with Lou Qingyue, maybe Lou Qingyue would forget Xu Manlu and shift her mind to her, but she didn't expect Lou Qingyue to say that she wanted to go alone, and not take her, so she was anxious and said:
"Brother Lou, you must take me with you, you have a companion all the way, so that the journey will not be too lonely, and I can take care of you......"
"Absolutely not, it's hard all the way here, and there are many people in Emeishan, if you encounter any danger, how can I have a chance to protect you, how can I explain to your parents if there is any three long and two short!" Lou Qingyue said as she looked at Ling'er's longing eyes.
"It's okay! I don't need your protection, I can do it myself......"
"Needless to say, it's so decided, I'll go alone, I've already lost Man'er, I can't lose you anymore......" Saying this, Lou Qingyue couldn't help but be sad, so she didn't say any more.
Ling'er wanted to fight for it again, but when she heard Lou Qingyue say this, she didn't say anything anymore, she knew that Lou Qingyue had decided something, no one could change it, she could only wish her Lou brother good luck, at this moment, she actually hoped that Lou Qingyue would bring Xu Manlu back earlier, because she didn't want to see her Lou brother so sad and sad, he didn't care whether Lou Qingyue loved her or Xu Manlu, she just hoped that her Lou brother would be happy soon!
Love is really a very strange thing, the more you want to get it, but you can't get it, sometimes letting go may be a kind of fulfillment.
When we were children, we often thought that love was to have, but now we only wish our lover a good life and a happy life!
......
That night, Lou Qingyue packed her luggage and went to Mount Emei, without saying goodbye to anyone!
On Mount Emei, he went to all the places he could go and asked everyone I could ask, but there was still no news.
That night, Lou Qingyue lived in the Yangqingzi Temple halfway up the mountain, which was also where he lived when he used to practice, he still slept on the bed he once slept on, and the monk of the temple was still the monk.
Lou Qingyue couldn't sleep in bed, the monk chanted in front of the Guanyin Bodhisattva Hall, and saw that the moon outside the window was exceptionally bright, Lou Qingyue put on a big hat and went out, walked into the courtyard, looked at the bright moon and sighed: "Three stars with the moon a hook, and now add another autumn!"
His sigh was so lonely, so poignant!
"Young man, the moonlight is so beautiful, but you are so sad, what knot in your heart can't be untied, can you come in and talk to the little monk?"
Lou Qingyue felt very strange when she heard this monk actually say what was on her mind, how could he hear it?
So, he pushed open the door and entered, and saw that the monk was still sitting in front of the temple chanting, his eyes were closed, and there were one hundred and eight oil lamps in front of the hall, arranged neatly, and the Guanyin Bodhisattva on the hall was like a loving mother, but her expression seemed to be very sad.
Lou Qingyue thought: Isn't this Bodhisattva the Bodhisattva of Guanzi who saves the world from great suffering, does she also have sad things, can she help me find Man'er?
"Young man, there is nothing sad about the Bodhisattva!" the monk continued to chant with his eyes closed.
"Master, how do you know what I'm thinking, and how did you hear that I'm worried just now?" Lou Qingyue exclaimed, could it be that this monk has the ability to see through people's hearts?
"Isn't adding three stars to a hook the word heart, and adding an autumn character to the word heart is naturally a sad word? A person who is so sad will of course see her sad face when he sees the Bodhisattva!" The monk finished chanting the sutra at this time, opened his eyes and looked at Lou Qingyue and smiled slightly.
"Master, I didn't expect you to have such understanding, and I am very ashamed of my later life. Can the master see why he is sorrowful in his later life?"
"The young man sighs here, it is nothing more than the love between men and women......" said and smiled slightly.
"The master is really discerning, and he can see through my heart at a glance. ”
"The pain in the world is nothing more than life and death, you can't get it, you can't forget it, you can't see through it, you can't let it go. You are the second son of the richest family in Jinguan City, and you are a young genius, I think, there is nothing else in this world except love can make you so sad!"
"How does the master know who I am?" Lou Qingyue was even more strange, this monk meditated and chanted here all day long, and he didn't even go out of the Buddhist temple to know the world!
"It was this Guanyin monk who told me. ”
Lou Qingyue saw that this monk was pretending to be mysterious, so she wanted to test him, so she also pretended to be angry and asked:
"So master, how many questions do you want to ask the master?"
"Please!"
"What is a Buddha?"
The monk was stunned for a moment, and then smiled slightly: "Everyone is a Buddha!"
"Since everyone is a Buddha, that is, you are a Buddha and I am also a Buddha, then why do you still have to be ordained a monk and meditate and chant in front of this mud bodhisattva?"
The monk smiled and said: "Even if everyone is a Buddha, there are different levels, for example, tofu is made of soybeans, mung beans, red beans, etc., it is not tofu from the beginning, so the process of making these beans into tofu is like meditating and chanting." ”
Lou Qingyue listened to it and felt that there was a certain amount of truth, but he didn't think that this monk's comprehension was very high, and he felt that it was just an ordinary monk.
So he didn't say anything more, just looked at this mud bodhisattva and thought: Buddha is a person in the past, and man is a Buddha in the future. It is better to seek Buddha than to seek oneself, people kneel under the mud bodhisattva and kowtow to incense, it is better to work hard, after all, wealth and fame are spelled out by themselves, and the dream is pinned on a mud bodhisattva, which is really incomprehensible to the nature of the Buddha.
Thinking of this, Lou Qingyue was about to leave and go to his bedroom to rest, not wanting to just open a door, so he listened to the monk and said: "Little brother, I see that you are very Buddha-like, and your understanding is also very high, why don't you join the Buddha's door and forget about the troubles in the world?" When the monk said this, he understood in his heart that Lou Qingyue had not yet reached the dust, and the opportunity had not yet arrived, I am afraid that he would not be able to be a Confucian Buddha in this life, and he said this just to test Lou Qingyue.
"Master, I still have very important things to do, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter!" Lou Qingyue was already arrogant, and felt that this monk's qualifications were mediocre, and thought: I can't enter your door!
In fact, why didn't this monk see it? The reason why he asked this was actually because he had another layer of thought.
"In this case, the little monk is not forced, but the little monk and the donor are fateful, the little monk has practiced for many years, realized a set of Buddhist mind, want to teach and the donor, with your understanding only one hour can be learned, as long as you practice diligently in the future, you can master seven or eight points in less than three months. ”
"Since you have practiced hard for many years, master, how can you covet this method in your later life?" Lou Qingyue thought to herself: A monk with mediocre qualifications, it is estimated that the cultivation of any mental method is not very good!
This monk had already seen through Lou Qingyue's thoughts, and said: "Little brother, don't underestimate this mental method, people with comprehension preferences can't cultivate for 30 years, and those with poor comprehension can cultivate all their lives." Once this mental method is refined, it can open up the meridians of the whole body, and it also greatly reduces the time for cultivating the immortal method, and the effect is better. It's okay to deal with second-rate masters with the donor's current immortal martial arts, but when you encounter a first-class master or a magical beast with a stronger magic, it's too much worse. If you cultivate this mental method, you will be able to deal with three or four first-class masters. ”
"Is it really so powerful?" Lou Qingyue was a little unconvinced.
"Monks don't speak. ”
"Well, for your sake, I'll learn from you. "Lou Qingyue's arrogant personality is strong everywhere, he wants to learn the best martial arts from others, but he still has to look like others are begging him to learn.
The monk didn't take it to heart, just smiled slightly.
So the two sat in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the monk said the key to the heart, and Lou Qingyue practiced according to what the monk said: one is quiet, the other is moving, and the combination of static and dynamic can be at ease. Movement is for people, and stillness is for Buddha. People are Buddhas, and Buddhas are also people. Buddha is cultivated by man, and man will become a Buddha......
Lou Qingyue felt that there was a hot current surging in her heart at first, and then her whole body was numb and sweaty, and at this time she only heard the monk say: "Hold steady, at this time, you need strong inner restraint and maintain inner tranquility before you can overdo it, otherwise your previous efforts will be wasted......"
Lou Qingyue is worthy of being a young genius, and under the guidance of the monk, she really practiced in an hour.
"Master, I feel that the heartache is not so strong......" Lou Qingyue tried to use the immortal method, and found that it could be used flexibly, and it was a higher level than before.
"Master, this mental method is really good, I, I feel that all the fatigue in my body has disappeared!"
"Well, sure enough, your understanding is extremely high, I thought you could master three or four achievements, but I didn't find that you have mastered six!
"Thank you Master for preaching!" Lou Qingyue was also very interesting, seeing that this monk's heart method was indeed unusual, she changed her name to Master.
"I hope that the donor will cultivate diligently, and maybe he will be able to save your life in the future......" At this time, he stopped talking, and Lou Qingyue saw that his eyes seemed to have a strange feeling, feeling that danger was about to happen......
Lou Qingyue didn't ask any more questions, and after thanking them, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Lying on the bed, Lou Qingyue thought about the appearance of the master just now, and there seemed to be an unspeakable secret, but he immediately turned his mind to Xu Manlu again, where is she? It's been three years, why is there no news at all!
The moonlight slanted in through the window, cool!
Suddenly!
Lou Qingyue felt a pair of cold eyes staring at him in the night, since he had just practiced the monk's "Freedom of Mind Method", the martial arts and immortal methods had increased greatly, and the breath within a radius of ten miles could be felt.
Although these eyes are extremely secretive, it tries its best to hide the breath on its body, so it can be inferred that this person's martial arts and immortal methods are also first-class, and ordinary people will never be able to find it, but now Lou Qingyue only needs a little to detect it.
He got up suddenly, and in an instant he was on the roof, so fast that he couldn't believe it. However, there was nothing outside, and the moonlight was still cool!
Emei Haoyue is cold and thousands of mountains, and no one cares about it. The moon at the beginning of summer is colder than the moonlight in the cold winter moon in Lou Qingyue's eyes at this time!
"Maybe I'm too careful...... Lou Qingyue thought to himself, he thought that it might be because he missed him too much Man'er hallucination just now, but how much he hoped that those eyes just now were Xu Manlu.
However, the night was still quiet, empty, and occasionally a few fireflies flew in, which made this lonely night even more lonely!
Lou Qingyue returned to it, how much he wished that Xu Manlu was in his room, but he was disappointed, there was nothing, naturally it was cool moonlight and a lonely bed.
Suddenly!
He noticed something more on the table in front of the window!
He walked quickly to the table, and found that there was a letter, and his heart was shocked, who could have put the letter in his room, and he did not even notice it!
It's incredible! Who has such a high level of internal strength and light work!
But he cares more about what is written in a letter, he hopes it is good news, he hopes that his man has news!
He was so excited, he could barely suppress his feelings, and all he could hear in the room was a heart pounding!
The envelope didn't stick, and he took out the letter inside, his heart almost reaching his throat......
Open the letterhead, "Ah, Man'er!" He actually shouted excitedly, and the words "Xu Manlu" were written on the letterhead!
......
If you want to know the end, let's analyze it next
