It has been more than half a year since Su Qingyue came to the Dongfang Mansion, and under her supervision, Dongfang Yu'er's realm finally broke through the foundation building, and under the catalysis of the elixir, she broke through the realm all the way to the fourth level of foundation building, and she was considered a cultivation genius in the Dongxuan Domain.

In the past half a year, in addition to teaching Dongfang Yu'er to practice qi, Su Qingyue found two maids to accompany her to practice swords.

She found the most ordinary iron sword for Dongfang Yu'er in the mansion, and then asked the two maids to take turns shooting the arrows in their hands at Dongfang Yu'er. From the original arrowless arrows made from reeds, to the bamboo arrows made of nanzhu later.

From the beginning, she couldn't catch the reed arrows shot by a maid, but now she can use the iron sword in her hand to cut off the two bamboo arrows that shoot at her at the same time.

From winter to spring, and from summer to autumn, she practiced archery with two maids.

And Su Qingyue didn't teach her a single swordsmanship, in her words: When you can cut off the five bamboo arrows that shoot at the same direction at the same time, you can practice swordsmanship.

Dongfang Yu'er has been practicing hard in the wind and rain for most of the year, Su Qingyue must have sat in the flower hall and watched quietly, not allowing her to be lazy at all.

Whenever this time, there is either a pot of tea in front of her, or a bookcase. Dongfang Yu'er had never seen her master practice, and when she saw her, in addition to drinking tea, she was writing, writing the same small block as Li Ye.

After the practice of this day, the young lady chattered while wiping her sweat, and returned to the teahouse to watch the master write.

Su Qingyue, who was writing, stopped writing when she saw Dongfang Yu'er coming over, put the wolf in her hand on the sand inkstone, looked down at the words she wrote, turned her head and asked the young lady: "Come here, what do you think of this character written for the teacher?"

Dongfang Yu'er stepped forward and looked at the small block on the bookcase, only to see that it was written:

Pan Lou boat Xi Ji Fen River,

Horizontal flow Yang Su wave.

The drums are singing,

There is a lot of joy and sorrow.

The young lady shook her head and said, "The apprentice is lazy, and the handwriting has always been ugly, so my father and mother have scolded me many times." In my opinion, as long as it's clean and tidy, it's excellent. ”

Su Qingyue retracted her gaze, looked at her and said, "What you said is perfunctory. I see that every time you practice "Qingluan Gaze", you read it very carefully, and often laugh secretly while watching it, why is that?"

Dongfang Yu'er looked at the master with big bright eyes, lowered her head and thought about it: "That guy's writing is naturally the best." I think my aunt also spent 500 gold coins to buy a poem he wrote. ”

Su Qingyue savored the meaning of her words, and quipped: "You said that he is not the little boy in Fengyun City, I seem to have heard your mother say it." It seems that he occupies a very important place in your heart. ”

"But I've also heard your mother say that his cultivation realm is very low, and you are now building its fourfold realm, or it won't be long before you break through the realm to Jindan, and when you reach the Jindan realm, you are a great cultivator, and you are not very far from the Yuanying realm. ”

"If he hadn't even broken the foundation at that time, then you were destined to be people from two worlds, and how would you live together at that time? Have you seriously thought about these things. ”

Dongfang Yu'er was stunned, since she returned to the Domain Lord's Mansion, she had always been thinking about tea, and her mind was full of Li Ye's shadow.

Even when he had been away from Fengyun City for a year, he had never erased him from his mind, but he was getting stronger and stronger.

When she said this to the master today, she was really a little confused.

If one day you cultivate to the Yuanying realm, or even break through to the great realm of distraction like your father, then you will have a long, long lifespan.

And Li Ye in the Qi Gathering Realm, even if he is lucky enough to break through to the Zhuqi Realm, it will only be less than two hundred years and will be old.

Su Qingyue looked at her and said with a smile: "For us cultivators, no matter how good the handwriting is, no matter how wonderful the poems are, and no matter how much money we make, it is just a passing cloud of smoke. If you want to find a partner who can be by your side for life, don't ask for his realm to be higher than you, at least not too much different from you. ”

"You are my only disciple, one day you will practice to the legendary realm as a teacher, and you will definitely cultivate to that realm, if you want to break through the void and leave this time and go to another starry sky, can you leave your partner to stay here and struggle?"

"The Buddha also said: Not all fate can persist to the end, there are good karma, there are false fate, there are three lifetime fate, there are half-life fate, and there is a definite number of dependent origin and extinction. In the end, it is up to you to choose, and gathering and dispersing is all a thought. ”

Dongfang Yuer and Li Mingzhu, because they did not have a deep friendship with Li Ye, and they had not heard of Li Ye's cultivation realm with Mr. Li.

I always thought that Li Ye's realm was just the third to fourth layers of Qi gathering that they saw, and thought that Li Ye was just excellent in poetry and writing, and he had cultivated some Buddhism.

Dongfang Yu'er has always been proud of her much higher realm than Li Ye.

She was already in love for the first time, and she already had the idea of not marrying Li Ye.

However, today, under the unintentional teaching of his master, he deliberately planted a seed with thorns in his heart, a seed that excludes Li Ye.

The tragedies of life often begin inadvertently and end in the midst of death and life.

And before Dongfang Yu'er's love affair with Li Ye sprouted, Su Qingyue inadvertently and quietly killed her

I don't know why, I go deeper.

I can't do anything, and I give up at a thought.

Some of the words that Su Qingyue inadvertently uttered became a quote from the Dharma out of context, which caused the tragedy of Dongfang Yu'er's life.

And the Dharma cloud: ...... If I have the merit of the speaker, or if someone hears it, my heart will be wild, and I will not believe it.

Dongfang Yu'er, who does not have the slightest concept of Buddhism, of course, what the master says, she thinks is what it is. There is no wisdom in Buddhism that leads to doubt.

Su Qingyue didn't know that she had inadvertently planted the cause that the Buddhas feared.

Dongfang Yu'er didn't know that the little suspicion she had in her heart today would cause her to be separated from Li Ye forever.

That night, she was depressed, did not eat dinner, hastily washed and climbed onto the head of the bed, and sat in a daze all night with the quilt in her arms, until the rooster crowed three times, and the sky was about to dawn.

A look back 500 years ago was exchanged for a passing of this life.

And Li Ye and Dongfang Yu'er didn't stop passing by, they went from strange to familiar, and then unconsciously liked each other.

Until the end, Li Ye left her with her own carefully selected and personally carved: Mo Shangren is like jade.

Later, Li Mingzhu sent a piece of jade pendant back to Ye Zhiqiu, hinting at the acquiescence of this marriage.

However, because of some words that Su Qingyue didn't know about, an irresponsible sentence cut off the relationship between Dongfang Yuer and Li Ye.

thus laid the bane for herself and Dongfang Yu'er in the endless years to come.

On this day, the yellow calendar shows: July 14, the great murderer, everything is not appropriate.

......

And this night Li Ye suddenly fell ill on the Tianshan Mountain, after reciting the Buddhist scriptures, he was lying on the bamboo chair and sleeping sweetly, suddenly he became feverish, sweating all over his body, trembling all over, and moaning in pain.

It is said that after he broke through to the Jindan realm, he was already invincible to all evils and no diseases.

Xiaobai, who woke up from the dream, looked at Li Ye's appearance and was startled.

Screaming, looking at Li Ye, who was unresponsive, he was so frightened that it rushed out of the shed like an arrow and rushed towards the cliff under the waterfall.

After a while, the old ape who woke up in the middle of the night followed Xiaobai to the shed, looking at Li Ye, who was trembling all over his body and sweating on his head.

The old ape stretched out his hand and touched Li Ye's hot forehead, and took the meridians for him, shook his head, looked at Xiaobai and said, "Go, quickly call the old wolf and ask him to bring some herbs."

The old wolf lit a fire in the stove at the moment, selected some different herbs from the herbs he brought and threw them in the pot, lowered his head and blew into the fire, he wanted to cook a bowl of herbs for Li Ye to cool him down.

While jumping over and taking off all the clothes Li Ye was wearing, including the close-fitting iron armor, and then lying him flat on the stone table that had been made, let the whole stone slab cool him down.

While jumping over and blowing the fire in the stove without stopping, he gently stirred the medicine boiling in the pot.

When the medicine in the pot was ready, Xiaobai led the old wolf into the shed.

The old wolf looked at Li Ye, who was lying on the table, and asked the old ape: "What's going on, didn't you just recite the scriptures well?"

The old ape sighed and said faintly: "Is it because today is the fourteenth day of July, and the ghosts traveled and startled the little gentleman?"

The old wolf spat the old ape and said, "You are old and confused, the little gentleman has boundless Buddhism, and all demons will not invade, not to mention these little ghosts in Tianshan!"

The old ape poured the boiled medicinal juice into the bowl, carefully blew the wind, and said, "Why is this, I said that Xiaobai said that Mr. Xiao still has it before going to bed, but he suddenly has a fever when he falls asleep." ”

"Don't talk about it yet, feed him the potion you've cooked, and we'll take him to the glacier for a while. The old wolf put the herbs he had brought on the bamboo chair, looked at the old ape and said.

The old ape nodded, shook the medicine bowl gently, and kept blowing, while hugging Li Ye, who was lying down, and helping him drink the warm medicine in the bowl one by one.

The old wolf touched his beard and said: "This little guy is already in the realm of Jindan Double, it stands to reason that all evils will not invade, plus his boundless Dharma body, can he be infected with this strange disease?"

The old pig also shook his head, and the two old men looked at Xiaobai together and said, "Who will come to see Mr. in this shed tonight?"

Xiaobai whined twice and shook his head to indicate no.

The old wolf also sighed faintly, and said, "Could it be that something is wrong with his relatives at the bottom of the mountain, or very good friends? ”

The old ape lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said softly: "It can only be explained in this way, we can't help with the things down the mountain, we don't even know where his home is." ”

The old ape stretched out his hand and touched Li Ye's forehead, it was still so hot, and he was in a hurry, and said, "No matter, you sit here, I'll take him to soak in the ice river for a while, maybe it will lower some body temperature." ”

The old wolf said, "Let's go, I'll go with you." ”

Xiaobai also roared a few times, lowered his head and ran down first.

The old ape carefully picked up Li Ye from the table, held him with both hands, as if he was holding his own child, and ran towards the glacier outside the woods with all his strength.

The moonlight in the sky faintly shone on the endless flowing glacier, illuminating the stones by the river and the snow in the river.

The old ape carried Li Ye step by step to the middle of the glacier, letting the icy river water overflow Li Ye's neck, exposing only the mouth and the head.

The river water flowing down the mountain was the most biting cold, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the temperature on Li Ye's body slowly dropped, and the old ape held him in the river for a quarter of an hour before returning to the shore.

He sat on the rocks by the river in his arms, and it was not until another quarter of an hour later, when he saw that the temperature in his body did not continue to feverish, that he returned to the shed on the cliff floor with him.

After carefully drying his clothes, getting dressed, and laying down on the bamboo chair to sleep, the old ape let out a long sigh.

looked at the old wolf beside him and said: "This little gentleman is also desperate, leaving his father and mother at such a young age and coming to Tianshan Mountain to practice." ”

"It's a rare fate to stay with us and explain the Dharma to us. I hope that one day you and I can repay this fate well. ”

The old wolf nodded, looked at Xiao Bai with a kind face and said: "Xiao Bai, you have to follow Mr. Xiao to practice well, your fate is what we envy the most, Mr. Xiao and you are friends now, and they will be brothers in the future, you must protect Mr. Xiao when you practice high in the future, until one day we can meet again under another starry sky." ”

Xiaobai looked at the old ape, then at the old wolf, and whined twice.

He lowered his head, lay down beside the old wolf, and closed his eyes.

The old wolf did not leave the shed that night.

This night, the old ape took care of Li Ye for most of the night.

......

Dongfang Yu'er in the distance didn't know that because of a strange knot in her heart, Li Ye would suddenly become ill and almost lose her life.

Li Ye, who was sick, didn't know that the young lady from afar had already disliked him, and their fate began to end with a high fever tonight.

The Buddha said, "A drink and a peck are not predetermined."

Everything must have cause and effect, and what is in life cannot be lost, and if there is no in life, it cannot be asked.

The so-called: cause and effect are not empty, this is the truth.

The current Li Ye doesn't understand.

Tonight's Dongfang Yu'er didn't understand.

By the time they all understood this truth, they had already reached the moment when they couldn't go back.

And Li Ye and Xiaobai's fate with the old ape and the old wolf, because of his compassion, let him pick up a small life tonight.

Since tonight, Li Ye has never been sick again.

Perhaps this is the principle of nirvana rebirth in Buddhism.
