Chapter 185: Let me tell you a story

Li Xiuyuan knows where his advantages lie.

With his strength, he could not escape from the cottage, and only by threatening his own life would he force the group of horse bandits to make a compromise.

Sure enough, the big boss who got the news came over in person.

"Why do you want to go on a hunger strike?!"

Her momentum was still so fierce, staring at Li Xiuyuan, who had bloodless lips and haggard, and asked coldly.

"I'm not going to be your teacher."

Li Xiuyuan glanced at her, his voice was weak but firm in his refusal.

"You look down on us?"

A trace of anger instantly crossed Cen Shy's eyes.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head, "I am a layman who has not yet become a monk, and the Buddha has a saying that all living beings are equal." In my eyes, you are no different from ordinary beings, let alone contempt or contempt. ”

Recalling the Buddhist scriptures that Li Xiuyuan carried with her, Cen Xi seemed to have thought of something, but she was even more puzzled.

"Since all beings are equal in your eyes."

"Then why don't you want to teach my mountain children to read and write?"

Li Xiuyuan got straight to the point and said: "I went to the west to worship the Buddha and seek the Tao, please forgive me for not having time to teach and educate people in your place, otherwise, I would rather starve to death in Xia!" ”

"You're threatening me!"

Cen was very annoyed when she heard this, she pulled out the long sword at her waist and put it directly on Li Xiuyuan's neck.

Li Xiuyuan's face was still pale, and he closed his eyes and silently recited the Heart Sutra.

"Good! Good! Good! ”

"He is worthy of being a layman who sincerely seeks Buddha!"

On the top of the mountain, the Buddhas of Lingshan who saw this scene were relieved.

"Li Xiuyuan, this name is related to my Buddha, and the firmness of Zen is really worthy of the Buddha's weight, good!"

"That's right, Buddhism needs such talents."

Guanyin Bodhisattva sighed softly when he heard this.

"Don't think too well about things."

"Don't forget that this film was shot by Black Wind Mountain, and it is impossible to have any praise for my Buddhism!"

The Dragon Descending Arhat shook his head and said: "Venerable Guanyin's words are wrong, Venerable Miao Fear said before, although this "Degree You Become a Buddha" is from the Black Wind Mountain, but it is filmed by the Heavenly Court Immortal Family. ”

"The relationship between Heaven and my Buddhism."

"I don't think I would do such a smear act."

"yes!"

"What Venerable Dragon Descending said makes sense."

Because the Heavenly Court was very cooperative with the Western Heaven to learn the scriptures at the beginning, the Buddhas of Lingshan were more satisfied with and trusted the Heavenly Court.

……

Back to the movie.

Cen Xi also seemed to be aware of Li Xiuyuan's determination.

After thinking for a moment, she put away her sword and turned to sit down, and said lightly: "Scholar, since you want to leave, it's not that I can't agree." But before you can do that, you have to promise me one condition! ”

"On what terms?"

Seeing that Cen was willing to make concessions, Li Xiuyuan was overjoyed.

Cen raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Two years, as long as you are willing to teach in the mountains for two years, I will promise to let you go." ”

Two years is not a long time for Li Xiuyuan.

"Okay, I promise you!"

Since then, Li Xiuyuan has been a teacher in the cottage.

Because of the lifting of people, the people in the village have great respect for him, after all, in this era, scholars are always respected, even horse bandits.

Li Xiuyuan also gradually became familiar with the mountain people.

Especially for Cen Sha.

It turned out that her indifference was just the surface, but inside she was a very loving woman, treating the people in the village like relatives.

The people in the stockade reciprocated her and respected her very much.

This is also the reason why she was able to inherit the position of the great boss from her father.

Winter goes to spring.

Before I knew it, a year passed.

Just when Li Xiuyuan sighed that there was still a year before he could embark on the road of asking Buddha again, Cen Xi suddenly fell ill.

The village panicked.

It is located outside the Yumen Pass, and it is already barren.

Coupled with years of fighting, how can there be a skilled doctor nearby? The old man in the mountain tried various methods, but he still couldn't stop Cen Xi's illness, but made it more and more serious.

The cottage crowd gathered around the room and asked the old man who was seeing the doctor:

"Old Li Tou, can you do it?"

Li Langzhong shook his head and sighed when he heard this: "I'm afraid it's impossible, last year's Wang San died of this disease." ”

"Here we are."

"If you have this disease, you will be ticked by Lord Yama in the book of life and death!"

The crowd gathered around the sickbed was like a lightning strike.

Several women wiped their tears and sobbed mournfully: "Cen girl is only twenty years old this year, why is God so short-sighted, and wants to take her life, woo woo woo......"

Li Langzhong had no choice but to retreat.

Li Xiuyuan outside, also regretted that after this year of getting along, his opinion of Cen Xi had changed a lot.

It would be a pity that such a strange woman would die of such an illness.

But when he heard Li Langzhong and others tell him about Cen Xi's condition, Li Xiuyuan suddenly felt that something was wrong, because this seemed to be the illness he had suffered from the spring before last!

He hurriedly asked Li Langzhong for details.

Sure enough, it was exactly the same as when I was sick.

"Perhaps, I can save her ......"

Li Xiuyuan turned his head to look at the people in the cottage who came out of the room with sad faces and low crying, and muttered to himself.

……

Knowing that Li Xiuyuan had a way to treat Cen Xi, everyone in the cottage was very surprised and hurriedly asked him to help.

Fortunately, Li Xiuyuan kept in mind the prescription given by Master Wenxian at the beginning, and sent someone to catch the medicinal materials needed.

Maybe it's the favor of God.

Under Li Xiuyuan's meticulous care, Cen Xi's condition finally stopped deteriorating and gradually began to improve.

Half a month later.

"Thank you this time, Mr. Li."

Cen shy leaned on the sickbed with the quilt, handed the finished medicine bowl to Li Xiuyuan, and thanked him softly.

Li Xiuyuan took the medicine bowl and smiled faintly on his face, "Saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, I also have a lot of care for Miss Cen in the mountains, and doing what I can is right." ”

Cen Xi also smiled lightly, and then asked, "Gongzi Li, the children's homework hasn't fallen behind, right?" ”

"Don't worry, they're self-conscious."

"Even the most naughty little tiger practices calligraphy late every day."

Li Xiuyuan packed up the medicine jar and said happily.

Cen looked at Li Xiuyuan's figure shyly, first smiled, and then a little gloomy, "It's a pity that they won't be able to see the husband they like next year, I don't know if they will be so diligent in the future." ”

Li Xiuyuan's body froze, and then he turned his head and sat down.

"Miss Cen, I have a question that I have been wanting to ask you for a long time." Li Xiuyuan was silent for a moment and spoke.

"Li Gongzi, please speak."

Li Xiuyuan then said: "Why do you want to be horse bandits in the mountains, I can see that the people in the village are all people who yearn for a stable life, why don't you be ordinary people who live and work in peace and contentment?" ”

"Isn't it good that children have books to read, old people tease their grandchildren, men plough and weave, and the countryside is their companion?"

Cen was ashamed to hear this, and couldn't help but lose his mind slightly.

Long.

She raised her eyes, "Master Li, let me tell you a story." ”

"Once upon a time there was a village where the people worked from sunrise to sunset, and they were like a family, supporting each other, and although life was a little harder, they were also happy and content."

"One day, the barbarians invaded, and they burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of evil, destroying the village."

"The survivors fled to the gate."

"On the way, they met the official army, and they thought it was the savior coming, but they didn't expect that they were greeted by the sword of the official army!"

"Some people were killed, some people fled."

"Those who fled later learned that the heads of the slain villagers had been taken by the officials and soldiers for credit, not only the heads of their villagers, but also the heads of villagers who had fled from other villages."

"The survivors didn't dare to go back, they found an abandoned village and tried to settle down."

"When they thought they could go on."

"The horse bandits are coming."

"It wasn't until this moment that they finally understood that there was no going back to the old days......"

Cen looked at the silent Li Xiuyuan, "They have begged God and worshiped Buddha, but when the tribulation comes, God is not there, and neither is the Buddha." ”

"Only those who live in peace are qualified to worship them."

"And they never deserved it."

Li Xiuyuan raised his head and looked at Cen Sha, who was sick and weak with a sad smile, as if something had been touched in his heart.

The eyes of the two looked at each other for a long time, and they said a thousand words for a while.

"Whea, what are you doing with your nose all of a sudden?"

Back Mountain Villa.

Yang Chan, who was watching a movie, looked at the roaring dog suspiciously.

The Howling Sky Dog shook its head and didn't answer, it couldn't tell Yang Chan that whenever she saw a man and a woman looking at each other, she couldn't help but smell if there was that strange fragrance.

Alas, speaking of which......

The third lady and the bear demon should be blamed for this!
