The concubine stood in place in a daze, looking at Huo Yin with a pair of autumn-like eyes, her red lips slightly open, as if she was completely stunned by Huo Yin's words, and couldn't say a word at all.

In the education and philosophy she received since she was a child, Cihang Jingzhai should be transcendent and high.

In the peaceful and prosperous times, they cultivated on the mountain.

In troubled times, go down the mountain to help the world.

She has always chosen the virtuous lord and chose a Ming Jun for the future world as her most urgent pursuit.

Because the seal engraved with "Ordered by the sky, longevity and eternal prosperity", the symbol of imperial power, is in their hands.

So she has always thought that this is their mission of Cihang Jingzhai, and only Cihang Jingzhai is qualified to choose a Ming Jun for the troubled times.

She has always taken it as her glory and pride.

But Huo Yin's words today threw her most glorious and proud, the most sacred pursuit to the ground and trampled it fiercely!

She just couldn't accept such a thing!

Huo Yin looked at the change in the expression on Concubine Xuan's face, shook his head and said, "Xia insects can't talk about ice. ”

After speaking, Huo Yin raised his feet and walked forward.

He cultivates at ease, and does whatever he wants.

He will not waste his words and tongues because of a person or a sect, and must persuade the other party to follow his own advice, which is not in line with his original intention.

Now that he had said what he wanted to say, it was time to end this conversation and not have to continue.

When Concubine Xuan saw Huo Yin continue to move forward, she subconsciously followed.

She wants to elect a virtuous lord for the world, and if she can get the help of Huo Yin, the Qinglian Immortal Monarch, she will definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

But obviously, Huo Yin and her concept are different from Cihang Jingzhai's concept.

She had to convince Huo Yin with her arguments and ideas.

Even if he was slapped to death by Huo Yin because of this, he would not hesitate to do so.

Just as Concubine Xuan was thinking of this, Huo Yin suddenly turned his head and looked at her with a pair of indifferent eyes.

"If you want to convince me, I will give you a chance, but if you can't convince me after three days, there will be no more Cihang Jingzhai in the world from now on!"

He had made it very clear just now.

Whether the concubine listens or doesn't listen, it's time to end this matter.

If the concubine does not give up and continues to entangle, then he will naturally not be polite!

Such a person is used to being high, and she is really regarded as a fairy in the clouds, and she has no way to face the reality in a down-to-earth manner.

Maybe others will be convinced by her identity and her appearance.

But he is different from others, he is not used to being a concubine!

When Concubine Xuan heard Huo Yin's words, the face that remained elegant and calm finally changed drastically.

At this time, Huo Yin had already retracted her gaze and continued to move forward, but she was hesitating, not knowing whether she should continue to move forward and keep up.

She believed in her own ideas, believed in her persistence, and wanted to strengthen her thoughts at this time to persuade Huo Yin.

But for some reason, she just couldn't take another step forward.

She looked at Huo Yin's figure that was gradually moving away and disappearing into the distance, and suddenly realized that she was afraid!

If someone else said Huo Yin's words, she would definitely smile and move forward calmly and continue to explain her philosophy.

Because Cihang Jingzhai is a transcendent existence in the rivers and lakes, even the increasingly powerful Demon Gate cannot destroy them.

Even if she can't convince the other party, she won't really have anything to lose.

But Huo Yin is different, Huo Yin's existence is more transcendent than Cihang Jingzhai, and he is the only Qinglian Immortal Monarch in this world!

Huo Yin said that if there would be no more Cihang Jingzhai from now on, then he would definitely be able to do it!

It was precisely because she knew this clearly and knew her identity as a saint that Cihang Jingzhai behind her could not have any impact on Huo Yin, so she stopped and couldn't move forward.

Thinking of this, her clear sword heart suddenly shook irrepressibly!

"If I really believe in my philosophy, and believe in the philosophy that Jing Zhai has always adhered to, I should catch up, because what is right cannot be wrong in any way."

"I didn't dare to step forward, is it because I don't believe in the concept in my heart so much, or is it because I don't have the confidence to convince Xianjun? Worried about the destruction of Jing Zhai? ”

"If my philosophy is right, then I must be able to convince Xianjun, how can I not have confidence?"

"If I don't have the confidence, how can I be sure that my philosophy is right?"

Shi Feixuan was suddenly confused.

When Huo Yin put the choice in front of her at the cost of Cihang Jingzhai's survival, she realized that in fact, she was not as confident in herself as she imagined in the battle of ideas!

The self-confidence she had before actually came more from Cihang Jingzhai's transcendent status in the rivers and lakes, from the symbolism represented by He's Bi, and from her confidence in her abilities in some aspects.

But when faced with a person whose status is more detached than Cihang Jingzhai, who can ignore the symbolism of He's Bi, and even more so who ignores her self-confidence in some aspects, then the ideas she adheres to suddenly become monotonous and become pale and powerless!

In the final analysis, her philosophy is not necessarily correct, but it is only because of the blessing of many factors that her philosophy seems to be "correct".

Once you lose the blessings of these many factors, everything will be different.

"How so?"

Belief is such a thing as illusory and ethereal, but it is real.

When you believe in it, it is as indestructible as diamond.

But as soon as faith in it is shaken, the diamond immediately turns into a cloud of sand, and the wind blows away.

Shi Feixuan obviously felt that the persistence she had always had in her heart seemed to be collapsing!

And all this is because of Huo Yin, because of this transcendent Qinglian Immortal Monarch!

……

While!

The melodious bell rings, echoing among the mountains and forests.

Looking at the temple hidden in the mountains through the gap between the mountains and forests, I thought there were only a few temples, but after climbing high and looking into the distance, I found that the buildings in the temple added up to more than 100 rooms, just like a small city.

However, there are no ordinary people in this small city, only bald monks.

The sound of Sanskrit chanting sounds, melodious, seems to come from an unknown distance, complementing the bells.

This is located in the southern suburbs of Luoyang, the Jingnian Zen Temple, in addition to Cihang Jingzhai in the Buddhist sect, another major sect leader.

The main buildings in the temple are arranged on the central axis facing the temple gate, with the copper hall as the center of the temple, and the scale is complete and uniform.

Except for the copper hall, all buildings are covered with three-color glazed tiles, and the color is as good as new.

I don't know if it's because the monks in the temple are diligent in cleaning, or because the tiles are so. In particular, the peacock blue of the three colors is the most dazzling, and you can imagine the brilliant scene under the sun.

The bell tower that rings the bell is located between the bronze hall and the other main hall, but the distance between them varies greatly, the former is far away and the latter is close. There is a vast platform square that reaches 100 zhang in front of the copper hall, is built with white stone, and encloses the white stone carved railing.

In the middle of the White Stone Square, a bronze statue of Manjushri is enshrined, riding on the back of a golden lion, up to two zhang high.

Next to the shrine are the three Buddhas of Medicine Teacher, Shakya and Mida. Painted gold ornaments are quite bold, but they also make people feel a little out of line with ordinary temple practices.

At the four edges of the white stone platform, in addition to the entrances and exits of the four stone steps, there are five hundred arhats evenly distributed, all of which are cast in gold and bronze, all with different expressions and postures. But whether it is the opening of the eyes and the protrusion of the forehead, or the lowering of the eyes and the inner guard, they are all lifelike, no different from a living person.

A large incense burner is placed in front of the Manjushri shrine in the White Rock Square, and the burning sandalwood is sending a large amount of fragrance, which fills the entire space, making people feel calm and infected with the atmosphere of birth.

Under the influence of this fragrance, Concubine Xuan's wavering Tongming sword heart gradually settled down.

After a long time, Concubine Xuan slowly opened her eyes and looked at the statue of Manjushri in front of her.

"The Bodhisattva blesses the disciple to eradicate the demons in his heart and break the demonic barriers."

Concubine Xuan looked solemn and looked at the statue of Manjushri, respectful and pious.

Beside the concubine stood a tall and handsome monk dressed in monk's robes.

This monk has a slender and dashing figure, a straight nose, and a lot of personality.

The curved curve of the upper lip and the slightly upturned lower lip give off a certain indescribable charm, embedded in his slender face, which is both very beautiful and leisurely.

The lower collar is broad, and the beautiful face has a kind of transcendent and earthly light, and the demeanor is neither weak, nor domineering, but comfortable and natural.

The most memorable thing at first sight is his pair of deep and unfathomable eyes, which can make anyone born with an unfathomable depth and a heart that dare not be underestimated.

This is the presiding abbot of the Pure Mind Monastery of this generation, Master Likong.

Who would have thought that Master Likong was not an old monk with kind eyebrows and white eyebrows, but was so young that he looked no more than forty years old.

Concubine Xuan got up slowly, saluted Master Kong, and said: "Concubine Xuan's mood is damaged today, and it is not suitable to walk the rivers and lakes. ”

Today's conversation with Huo Yin shook her concept, and her years of knowledge were greatly challenged.

She had to meditate for a while before she could get rid of her demons and get back on track.

It's just that Luoyang is far away from Cihang Jingzhai, and she has no time to rush back, so she can only retreat in the nearby Jingnian Monastery.

When Master Likong heard the words of the concubine, he bowed his head lightly and did not speak.

This is because he practiced closed-mouth meditation and had not spoken a word for many years.

Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Monastery are both Buddhist gates, and this request of the master concubine is naturally unacceptable.

Concubine Xuan carefully took out a brocade box and handed it to Master Kong, saying, "This is the Bi of the He's family, which has a great stake, and it will be taken care of by the master during the period of Concubine Xuan's retreat." ”
