Chapter 69: King Ling's Hunting Bird

Shen Yanshu sister and brother and Xiao Lu father and son came to Min'an Temple early the next day.

Even if it is not a New Year's holiday, there are still many people in this temple who come to worship the Buddha.

Because Xiao Lu and his son had not been to Min'an Temple, the master in the temple took them to look around the temple after the incense pilgrimage to understand the Buddhist culture, and Shen Yan'an also accompanied him.

Shen Yanshu just wanted to follow, but was stopped by a little master: "Amitayus Buddha, donor, Master Lingyuan has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Seeing that he made a gesture of please, Shen Yanshu nodded and went with him.

Although the incense of Min'an Temple is vigorous, it does not make people feel noisy, and the chanting of monks and the percussion of wooden fish linger in the ears, making people feel that their hearts are as calm as water.

Shen Yanshu followed the little master to a path, and the trees and flowers beside him were lush and green, stretching to the end of sight.

Although this road is not easy to walk, Shen Yanshu seems to have been here many times, and it is extremely easy, which makes the little master who led the way a little surprised.

They came to the bamboo forest in the back mountain, and there was a small wooden house in the depths of the bamboo forest, which seemed to fit particularly well in this quiet bamboo forest.

"Donor, Master Lingyuan, please go in by yourself. The little master said.

Shen Yanshu nodded: "Thank you." ”

She climbed the stairs and stepped on the wooden stairs to enter the wooden house, a meditation room that ran from north to south, and the sunlight was shining on the wooden floor.

When she got closer, she saw Master Lingyuan sitting under the window on the west side looking at a Buddhist scripture, and on the small table in front of him was a chessboard, and the endgame on it seemed familiar to her.

Just as he wanted to step forward to salute, he heard Master Lingyuan say, "Qingyun, you're back." ”

Shen Yanshu's movements froze instantly, looked up at him in surprise, and then stepped forward, lifted his skirt and knelt in front of Master Lingyuan, making a big salute.

"Disciple Qingyun, meet Master. ”

Master Lingyuan put down the Buddhist scriptures in his hand, turned his head to look at Shen Yanshu, and just said, "Finally back." ”

"How can Master recognize that I am Qingyun?" Shen Yanshu asked puzzled.

Master Lingyuan didn't answer her words, but said, "Come here and finish this endgame." ”

Shen Yanshu had no choice but to step forward, sit opposite him, and glance at this endgame, which turned out to be the last game of chess she had played with her master in her previous life.

Master Lingyuan is one of her masters, and her chess skills are taught by Master Lingyuan.

The name Qingyun was originally given to Qi Yunge by Master Lingyuan, and later Emperor Zhou Xi named her the lord of Qingyun, and it was this law name that was used.

She walked in a white place, landed in an inconspicuous position, retreated as advance, and soon immersed herself in this ever-changing chess game.

It's just that as time goes by, she gets harder and harder, and in the end she still loses.

"Chess has improved a lot. Master Lingyuan said.

Shen Yanshu: "I'm ashamed of Master's teachings." ”

Master Lingyuan said: "In the future, you must not be impetuous, and you must not rush to achieve some things if you can't force them." ”

"The disciple respectfully follows the Master's teachings. Shen Yanshu said.

Master Lingyuan: "From now on, we will no longer be masters and apprentices, and we will do more good deeds in the future, and we must not implicate innocent people." ”

Shen Yanshu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Master...... I just want to avenge the people of the Qi family and show the soldiers who died unjustly! Don't you even want to clear the clouds, Master?"

Master Lingyuan said: "As a teacher, I only hope that you will not forget your original intention. ”

Shen Yanshu lowered his eyebrows and was silent.

She once hoped to be a hero admired by everyone like her father Qi Yi, and use her own strength to protect more people.

But there is always too much helplessness in this world, she can't even protect her favorite family! Relive a life, she just wants revenge, and those former dreams seem to be getting more and more distant.

Her eyes flashed slightly, and she diverted her words: "Master arrived at the Shen family yesterday, I'm afraid that there will be a lot of people who will come to ask for a meeting." ”

"It doesn't matter. Master Lingyuan said, "The old man is already planning to travel all over the world and have a lot of travel. ”

Shen Yanshu didn't expect that he had already made plans, but after thinking about it, he had long wanted to leave the noisy imperial capital of Chang'an, but he didn't know why he stayed until now.

"Master, since you can know that I will be back, can you tell me what I should do, and what will be the outcome?" asked Shen Yanshu.

Master Lingyuan said: "Although there is a providence in the underworld, but it is man-made, no matter what the outcome is, just follow your heart." ”

Shen Yan shook his head: "Yes." ”

When she walked out of this bamboo forest, she looked back at the road she had just walked, and there was a trace of trance.

When he was five years old, he and his mother got lost in the temple to incense, walked into this bamboo forest, and met Master Lingyuan and the first emperor who were playing chess in the meditation room.

Originally, he just accidentally knocked down the chess piece in the hands of the first emperor, but it just solved his dilemma.

In this way, she became a lay disciple of Master Lingyuan.

The first emperor is long gone, and the master is also going to travel in all directions, and those dusty pasts have disappeared like this.

"This king just wants to meet Master Lingyuan. ”

"I'm sorry donor, the little monk really can't take you to disturb Master Lingyuan. ”

"He didn't go to the Shen family yesterday, why can't he see people today?"

On the path outside the bamboo forest, there was a sound of dispute, and Shen Yanshu looked up, it turned out to be Ning Wang Yanxiao and the monks in the temple.

This Yan Xiao is well-informed, and he found the door so quickly, I'm afraid that he just wants to meet the master.

When Shen Yanshu saw them, Yan Xiao also found her not far away.

She stepped forward and saluted: "The courtiers have seen the prince, please greet the prince." ”

"Shen Yanshu?" Yan Xiao was a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

The little monk on the side said, "Master Lingyuan promised Lord Shen yesterday to give her a lecture. ”

"It turns out that Master Lingyuan had a guest just now. Yan Xiao said, "Then now that I have free time, can I let him meet this king, this king wants to ask the master to make a hexagram for this king." ”

"It is said that the Buddha is destined to be a person, Master Lingyuan is not the staff of the prince, and the attitude of the corporal of the prince does not look like he is here to solve the hexagram. Shen Yanshu said.

Yan Xiao listened to Shen Yanshu's sarcasm, frowned slightly, and looked at Shen Yanshu.

"The courtiers still have something to do, so they will leave first. Shen Yanshu bowed slightly, turned around and was about to leave.

Yan Xiao is in a high position, and she is no longer the original county lord, so naturally she doesn't want to provoke his displeasure like this.

It's just that as soon as she turned around, Yan Xiao also spoke: "Since this king can't see this Lingyuan master today, I will accompany Miss Shen to enjoy the scenery of this Min'an Temple." ”

Shen Yanshu paused, turned his head to look at Yan Xiao, who had already followed her, and said, "The courtiers are scared, but the courtiers are coming with their families, and they are afraid that their families will wait for a long time to worry, so they ......."

"You don't have to refuse, it's rare for this king to be so interested in a woman. A smile appeared on the corner of Yan Xiao's mouth, and he leaned over and lowered his head to approach her, and the two of them were close at hand.

"Whoa—"

A sharp arrow suddenly sounded in her ears, Shen Yanshu reacted quickly, pushed Yan Xiao away, and she herself took a step behind her.

In this way, a sharp arrow passed through the middle of the two people, separating the two men, and it was thrilling.

Yan Xiao came back to his senses, turned his head to look at the direction where the arrow was fired, and happened to see Yan Qinghan holding a bow.

"Fourth brother. Yan Xiao's face was terrifyingly dark, if it wasn't for Shen Yanshu's quick reaction just now, that arrow would have already hit his face!

Yan Qinghan, who was not far away, also seemed to realize Yan Xiao's anger, and walked towards them with an apologetic face.

"I didn't see the second brother here!, I was too careless!" Yan Qinghan said, "But why are the second brother and Miss Shen here?"

"I should ask you that, right?"

Yan Xiao's face was very ugly, he had never liked Yan Qinghan, but now Yan Qinghan was poisoned, and time was short, so he didn't pay attention to it.

Yan Qinghan said innocently: "I was in a panic in the palace, so I planned to come to Min'an Temple to relax, and when I saw that the birds in the temple were so fat, I practiced my hands when I was itchy." ”

One of the guards beside him hurriedly stepped forward and took the arrow back, only to see that the bird that had been shot was hanging on the arrow.

"Amitabha!" several monks closed their eyes and silently recited a few words.

"In the important land of Buddhism, the fourth brother hunted birds and killed here, and he almost hurt people, it was too much!" Yan Xiao blackened his face and reprimanded.

Yan Qinghan didn't care: "Anyway, I have a lot of killings in my hands, and I don't care if there is one more or less." ”

"You!" Yan Xiao glared at him, "Reckless behavior, if my father knows that you are so ridiculous, he will not spare you!"

"Ridiculous?" Yan Qinghan frowned slightly, looking puzzled, "Do you mean that I accidentally almost shot and injured the second brother who came to see Master Lingyuan?"

It is rumored that Master Lingyuan of Min'an Temple has the ability to prophesy, what else can the prince do if he repeatedly asks to see Master Lingyuan like this?

Yan Xiao didn't want to be angry with him anymore, but said to Shen Yanshu: "Miss Shen, let's go." ”

Before Shen Yanshu could say anything, he saw that Yan Qinghan grabbed his arm and pulled him to his side.

"Miss Shen's archery skills in the school examination are exquisite, and she has always wanted to find an opportunity to learn from each other, so how about accompanying this king to practice archery today?"

Yan Xiao said coldly: "The fourth brother wants to rob people?"

"If the second brother is interested, you can also join us. Yan Qing said coldly.

Shen Yanshu listened to them silently, and she didn't want to pay attention to any of them.

"Your Royal Highnesses, the courtiers have been out for a long time, and they are afraid that my uncle and younger brother will be worried, so they will not accompany me. ”

She bowed, and then before they agreed, she had already bypassed the two of them and walked first, Min'an Temple she was very familiar with, even if she walked the path by herself, she would not get lost, and it was the right thing to get rid of these two annoying guys quickly.

Yan Xiao was just about to step forward to stop her, but Yan Qinghan blocked her way: "Second brother isn't going to find Master Lingyuan?"

"It's not your turn to do what I'm going to do. "Yan Xiao is already very popular today, and he has been frequently blocked by others, which is a good thing!

He was on fire when he saw Yan Qinghan now! This fourth brother was still as annoying as ever!

Yan Xiao snorted coldly and threw away his sleeves.

Looking at Yan Xiao's distant back, Yan Qinghan's eyes also turned cold, and he turned around and walked towards the front yard where Xiao Lu and the others were.
