Under the bright moon, Zhao Wuwuxiu's eyes were shining, like a pair of gems shimmering in deep black, and suddenly saw that the monk behind the young monk was a little familiar, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Seven Returning Masters?"

Feng Yi was shocked, and looked at the old monk, and it was the six ancestors and the seventh return.

How did he end up here?

After he visited Shushan Zhangjiao, what accident did he encounter?

Feng Yi was dazed for a while, his heart was full of doubts, and his consciousness told him that something was wrong.

Although Xu Xiu was still so calm and relaxed, he could not hide the frightened look on his face, although he had not seen the seven returns, but he had heard of the dispute between the six ancestors of the seven returns and the first crossing, and now the seven returns were fiercely pursued by a thirteen or fourteen-year-old young monk on his back to avoid the Gu Eagle, which was really much beyond his expectations.

He coughed dryly, and immediately commanded everyone like an order: "Listen to the order, Feng Yi is responsible for inspecting the old monk's injuries, Lan Mo is responsible for checking the situation of the little monk, and Ding Shan and Bupo are on alert to prevent the Gu Eagle from returning and sneaking attack." Everything will wait until they wake up. ”

Everyone gladly accepted the order and began to go their separate ways.

Feng and Lan practiced medicine on the spot, and Zhao Wuwu assisted.

The starry night returns to tranquility.

After a while, after Lan Mo carefully checked the young monk, he stood up and said to Xu Xiu: "The little monk has no internal injuries except for a few external injuries, he just ran around for a long time and caused serious depletion of the essence element, and finally fell into a severe coma, but the whole is fine, and he will wake up naturally after recuperating for a period of time and after being tired." ”

Xu Xiu nodded, looked at Feng Yi again, and saw a thick dignified look on the latter's face.

After pondering for a moment, Feng Yi sighed: "The situation is not optimistic. The master's natal spirit has been out of the body for too long, and if he still does not come back within half a pillar of incense, he is afraid that he will become a living dead. ”

Generally speaking, as long as a monk has reached the Conghua realm or above, he will have the mysterious ability of the original god out of the body.

After the original spirit is out of the body, there is an invisible band of light connected to the main body, and only when the body dies, the colorless and phaseless band of light will be disconnected.

It can be said that once the Yuan Shen encounters an accident, he cannot return to his body in time, and he will become a living dead at the least, and his life will not be guaranteed.

Vice versa.

If the physical body is damaged and the light belt is cut off, the primordial spirit will not be able to return to its place.

Xu Xiu's uneasy mood became even stronger, he felt the cruelty of reality, and frowned: "Is there a way to save him?"

Feng Yi showed a thoughtful look and said, "No matter what, you have to find the master's primordial spirit first." I'm going to release my divine sense, use my mind as a bridge, and enter the master's sea of consciousness space to see if I can find some clues. ”

Xu Xiudao: "Are you sure?"

Feng Yi showed a bitter and helpless expression, and sighed calmly: "Although I am not sure at all, I want to try." ”

Lan Mo felt that it was inappropriate and interjected: "Wait." For the sake of insurance, I think it is better to stimulate the acupuncture points through silver needles to let the little monk wake up quickly in advance, and after understanding the situation, Feng Yi will find the master's Yuan Shen, which is more secure. ”

Xu Xiu looked at Feng Yi, who nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

Without further ado, Lan Mo quickly took out a silver needle, pricked it lightly at the acupuncture point among the young monk, and then performed the twisting and turning laxative method, and after a while, he heard the young monk lying on the ground "whew", and let out a long breath.

The young monk opened his eyes.

What greeted me was a peerless jade face with a concerned look on her face.

At this moment, he knew that he and Lan Mo had established a sister-brother relationship that others could not achieve in their lives, as if Lan Mo was his only closest relative in the world, and the relationship was delicate and strange.

Xu Xiu, who was standing next to her, winked at him, with a relieved look, which showed that he had been worried about himself for a while.

The young monk regained consciousness, remembered something, and shouted for the first time, "Master!"

Immediately sit up.

Xu Xiu patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "Little monk, don't worry, your master is by your side." ”

The young monk turned his head and saw that Qihui was indeed safe and sound, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Lan Mo said, "Little monk, are you hungry?" As he spoke, he took out the pastries that Zhao Wuwu had given him at night and handed them to the young monk.

The young monk took the delicate pastry, took a bite, and said movingly to Zhao Wuwu: "Thank you, sister." ”

Lan Mo said: "Little monk, can you tell my sister, what is your name?"

The young monk said: "The little monk's name is Chen Xiqian, nicknamed Stone, and everyone likes to call me Crazy Stone." ”

Lan Mo said, "Why?"

Shi Shi showed a self-deprecating look and said, "Because my pursuit of Buddhism has reached the level of obsession and self-forgetfulness. Born as a child, I seem to have a relationship with the Buddha, I don't cry or make trouble, and I am as quiet as a lotus. When he was young, he did not eat meat or kill, and often went to the monastery with some old people who believed in Buddhism to participate in the Dharma and listen to the monks chanting. ”

Everyone was stunned, could this be the legendary born Buddha?

Lan Mo took a deep breath and said, "Little Stone, which temple are you a monk in?"

After eating the pastry, Xiao Shi smiled shyly and said: "The little monk is home all over the world, and he has not entered the temple until he is looking for a teacher." ”

Lan Mo said, "What happened to you and your master?"

Xiao Shi stood up and bowed to Lan Mo, his eyes couldn't help but shed tears, and said, "Sister, please, save my master, please." ”

Lan Mo helped him up, his eyes shone brightly, and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely do our best to save the Seven Returning Masters." ”

When Xiao Shi heard it, he packed up his mood and told everyone the story of his encounter with Qihui.

After the death of both parents, Xiao Shi left Duanzhou Gaoyao with all his heart to seek Buddha, and once went up and down Luofu, traveled back and forth to the Three Gorges, looking for Buddhist teachers in the vast land, hoping to worship under his door.

However, all that was gained was desolation, exhaustion, and disappointment.

When he was thirteen years old, he heard that Cao Xi had returned to the name of the seventh return, so he traveled day and night, thousands of miles to rush to the Faxing Temple to apprentice, but he never thought that the seventh return had already left for Bashu, so he tracked it all the way.

One day, Xiaoshi finally met the seven returns that he had been looking for in Shuanggui Mountain, Fengdu.

At that time, after the seven returns from the Shushan Xuanyuan to bid farewell to Qin Shang, according to the spiritual power of the Bodhi bead seal, they went all the way south to find the whereabouts of "Zhu Rongding". When I traveled to Shuanggui Mountain by moonlight, I suddenly heard that there were deer running and playing in the mountains, and from time to time "Yo Yo" chirping, I followed the sound to find it out of curiosity.

But after getting closer, I found that there was no deer shadow in the mountain at all, and I only saw a big stone that looked like a white deer sitting and lying, which was quite aura under the moonlight.

The whole body of the deer stone is irregularly covered with white plum blossoms, from head to tail and strips of black and cyan are naturally intertwined, the triangular head, stubborn, rigid, and more interesting is that the top of the head is smooth forward, showing its kindness, and the small triangle of the brain seems to be a kind of bravery, wisdom, and cleverness. The whole body is huge, a gathering of strength, a strong, upright, and burly posture, giving people the majesty of the mountains.

The deer is in front of you, and the road is at your feet.

After a long silence, he knew that this was the Buddha pointing something, so he sat on the deer stone and closed his eyes to meditate.

The small stone was found here a few days later, and it was precisely because of hearing the deer's cry in the moonlight that the ghost sent the god into Shuanggui Mountain, and before coming to the deer stone, he saw the seven returns.

Xiao Shi looked at the seven times of meditation with his eyes closed, and there was a natural charm between the deer stone and the mountains and forests, which was very natural and harmonious.

Qihui had already known that someone was coming, but he didn't open his eyes.

Xiao Shi's face was filled with a dreamy, bright smile, and he walked step by step towards the Seven Returns Master, kneeling on the ground at a distance of one zhang.

Earnestly and attentively: "You are the master of the Seven Returns, right? ”

Qihui finally knew that Lu Ming had brought the two of them here, maybe it was a kind of Buddha's fate.

He slowly opened his eyes, and then saw a pair of eyes that did not lose their aura, looking at the clever on the left and the spirit rhino on the right.

After pondering for a moment, Qihui said, "Where did you come from?"

Xiaoshi said: "Cao Xi." ”

Qihui was quite surprised, and said, "Why did you come?"

Xiao Shi said: "Looking for the Buddha." ”

Seven returned: "Where do you look for me?"

Xiaoshi said: "If you don't follow the teacher, how can you get it?"

Seven returns: "No, I don't know, you think about it." ”

The huge and brilliant Zen buds in the depths of the little stone's heart opened in an instant!

Yes, everyone has Buddha nature, and it does not decrease in everything and does not increase in holiness.

As for the path of cultivating Buddha, it lies in the cultivation of non-cultivation and the enlightenment of Buddhahood.

As soon as you think about it, you will find the truth.

So, after the little stone kowtowed, he sat in a quiet place like seven times and pondered, and he forgot his life.

Seeing the manifestation of his Buddha nature, he praised: "Although there are many horns, one is enough." After the words fell, he accepted Xiaoshi as a disciple and took it with him.

After meditating for a few days on Shuanggui Mountain, the master and apprentice came to Fengdu a few days later under the guidance of the Bodhi Bead Seal.

However, before entering the city, the Bodhi Bead Seal suddenly seemed to have lost Zhu Rongding's induction, but instead captured a trace of extremely powerful and very strange divine sense fluctuations.

With the calmness and composure of the seven returns, I couldn't help but be surprised that there was such a terrible master in the world, but I didn't know where he was sacred.

Immediately afterwards, he found that this divine consciousness was not only awe-inspiring, but also extremely domineering, rushing straight to the Xiajiang Tang Gate thousands of miles away.

Realizing a danger, Qihui temporarily gave up his plan to find Zhu Rongding and instead pursued that divine sense.

Soon after, the strange consciousness mysteriously disappeared.

Just as the seven times were wondering, the power of spiritual sense sensed a wisp of primordial spirit, it turned out that the person's primordial spirit was out of the body, and he went straight to the Tangmen of Xiajiang.

What exactly does this do?

Qihui was worried that this person would be unfavorable to the Tang Sect, so he had to sit down quietly, with Xiao Shi beside him to help him, while he was out of his body and prepared to intercept in the alien space.

But one day, two days, three days...... After five days in a row, Xiao Shi still hasn't seen the Seven Returning Primordial Spirits return to their places and wake up, and they can't help but feel worried.

What I didn't expect was that on the sixth night, a Gu eagle suddenly pounced and wanted to eat the flesh of the seventh return.

Fortunately, before this, in order to let Xiao Shi keep up with his footwork of traveling thousands of miles a day, Qi Hui spent a day and a night of hard work when teaching his Buddhism, not only opened up the eight veins of the strange scriptures for Xiao Shi, made Xiao Shi's practice in martial arts make a breakthrough, and took a big step forward, but also taught him a set of Buddhism's most profound footwork "Tan Lian Zhi Bu".

In Buddhism, meditation has the saying of sitting meditation and walking meditation, and "Tan Lian Zhi Step" is a kind of footwork created by Bodhidharma when he suddenly realized it when he was walking meditation.

After attaining the "fire talisman" in the seventh return, he also practiced the Dharma, cultivated himself with it, changed his supernatural powers, and helped others, which was even more amazing.

Xiao Shi has a clear root, and his cultivation has made rapid progress in just a few months, and now he is finally seeing results.

In the face of the sudden attack of the demon beast, Xiao Shi quickly picked up the seven returns and began to flee, and escaped the Gu Eagle's countless pursuits with the ingenious "Tan Lian Zhi Step".

Although Gu Diao has practiced for nearly a thousand years and can be called a demon king, he can only sigh in the face of "Tan Lian's Steps".

The little stone has no direction and no goal on his back, he only knows how to run forward, he can't stay, he doesn't dare to breathe......
