Take people softly, eat people with short mouths.

Although even if there is no reward for this matter, this white-clothed sword cultivator will be obligated to go. What's more, now he has also received a picture of their predecessors.

The ancient temple is a thousand-year-old clock.

This is an ancient temple hidden in the mountains, there are strange birds in the woods in the mountains, and there is a murmuring water next to the temple. The mountain breeze blew through the bamboo forest and rushed into the woods, and the cheers came to an abrupt end, and the water tinkled like wind chimes and larks in the mountains. But as the bells rang, the sound of Sanskrit enveloped the mountain, the mountain wind quieted down, and the flowing water softened. As the sun sets, the whole mountain seems to be crossed with a layer of gold, and the whole world is quiet.

The white-clothed sword cultivator closed his eyes, carrying a painting and a sword on his back.

He stood quietly outside the bamboo forest.

In the bamboo forest, there is an ancient temple, and in front of him, a golden light appeared, like a big bowl, covering the entire ancient temple.

Red bricks and green tiles, a few branches sticking out from the wall, growing wantonly. A few withered yellow leaves on the branches slowly fell, and he accepted his fate peacefully.

"Turn into spring mud to protect flowers. The white-clothed sword cultivator opened his eyes and happened to see the scene of the leaves falling.

"Donor, please come in. The voice of the old monk came in, and the voice was as solemn and peaceful as this mountain and this ancient temple.

The white-clothed Jian Xiu was stunned for a moment, looking at the golden light in front of him, and he didn't dare to put his feet down.

The Vajra Demon Suppression Array is the only formation that was built without the help of the power of the Heavenly Array Sect, and it embodies the efforts of hundreds of eminent monks. This big array, in the name of the cultivation world, is even faintly on par with the Shushan Great Array and the Chang'an Great Array.

Moreover, since the defeat of Master Ci'en who sacrificed his life a few years ago, the golden light has been shining all day long.

This is also the reason why Lingyin Temple has not been attacked in recent years.

The white-clothed sword cultivator looked at this big array, and in addition to awe, he was more afraid in his heart, but he still gritted his teeth and stepped in.

I only felt that my body was warm, and when I opened my eyes again, I found that I had entered the "big bowl", this white-clothed sword cultivator looked around, looked behind him, and then looked at the white-eyed old monk in front of him, and immediately hugged his fists and bowed: "The junior Qinglian Sword Sect Ning Zhiyuan has seen Master Xuyun." ”

Although Master Xuyun's face was a little pale, he did not feel sick, let alone penetrating, but made people feel kind.

Master Xuyun had a smile in his eyebrows, folded his hands, and bowed his head slightly: "Qinglian Sword Sect has many talents. ”

Ning Zhiyuan is also not modest, modesty is not the character of their sect.

"Thank you, master, the younger generation came this time, and I was entrusted by someone......"

Thinking of the ancient painting on his back, Ning Zhiyuan always felt ashamed, and he couldn't wait to help Luo Ziang get things done immediately.

Before he finished speaking, he saw Master Xuyun shaking his head, although he still had a smile on his face, it made Ning Zhiyuan unable to continue his words.

Master Xuyun struck a Buddha and bowed slightly towards this young man from the Blue Lotus Sword Sect, as if saluting.

Ning Zhiyuan saw this scene and hurriedly bent down. He could accept the praise of the Void Cloud Master, but he couldn't accept this worship.

Master Xuyun made a gesture of "please", and the wide robe swept to the ground, rolled up the leaves on the ground, and walked towards Lingyin Temple with Ning Zhiyuan.

This ancient temple is not luxurious, nor is it shabby, except for the surrounding landscapes and trees, insects, fish, birds and beasts appear to be extremely harmonious. This ancient temple that is famous in the name of compassion is no different from all ordinary temples.

Ning Zhiyuan originally thought that he would be able to take a look at this world-famous Lingyin Temple today, but what he didn't expect was that Master Xuyun stopped at the door and led him along the wall.

After taking a few steps, Master Void Cloud stopped and pointed to the wall in front of him. Ning Zhiyuan looked at the wall suspiciously, it was still a red wall, looking solemn and solemn.

"Do you see any difference on this wall?"

Hearing Master Xuyun's question, Ning Zhiyuan's eyes widened and he looked carefully, but the wall was still a wall.

He remembered that Buddhism had a saying that the first realm is to see the mountains and the water is water; the second realm is to see the mountains and the water is not water; and the third realm is to see the mountains as mountains and the water as water.

Ning Zhiyuan doesn't have that understanding, and he doesn't understand this. But out of respect for Master Xuyun, he still wanted to see something through a wall, but in the end, what he saw in front of him was still a wall, a mediocre wall, and he took it with a sword

A wall that can be broken.

The two were speechless against a wall, and after a long time, Ning Zhiyuan shook his head.

"The juniors are incompetent, they don't see anything. ”

What he didn't expect was that Master Xuyun not only did not show a look of disappointment on his face, but instead showed a smile.

"There used to be something on this wall, but now it doesn't. ”

Ning Zhiyuan was stunned in his heart, only to feel that his face was hot for a while, in his impression, don't masters like to make people understand?

As if he saw what Ning Zhiyuan was thinking, Master Xuyun smiled and said, "The purpose of enlightenment is to comprehend the truth of this world and understand your own heart." It is the same in any form, Buddhism crosses people with compassion, Taoism views the world with truth, and Confucianism travels thousands of miles and reads thousands of books. This seems to be a different method, but in fact, it is just for the sake of understanding 'reason', and they all lead to the same goal. The little donor just walks his own way, the truth of the lotus pond is not lovely!"

Ning Zhiyuan thought for a moment, nodded, and suddenly asked, "Master, have you ever been to the lotus pond?

The smile on Master Xuyun's face was even worse, looking at Ning Zhiyuan, the always solemn master actually grinned and said, "Lotus Pond, that's it, it's just a few bad old men who love to fish and fight and splash!"

Ning Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, he originally thought that the lotus pond was a lake as the name suggests, and there was a group of worldly masters living in seclusion by the lake, their white clothes fluttering, their white hair and eyebrows swaying in the wind.

Seeing Ning Zhiyuan's appearance, Master Xuyun nodded, and after his face returned to calm, he said, "Okay, don't think so much, let's talk about this wall first!"

Being interrupted by Master Xuyun just now, Ning Zhiyuan almost forgot his purpose, and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, master, does this wall have anything to do with the purpose of my coming here?"

Master Xuyun said, and sat down on the ground.

Before today, he had always thought that Buddhism was all high, and they were the same as the figures in the temple and the portraits, with a sense of fluttering and detaching themselves from the mundane. But today, when he met Master Xuyun, he knew that many masters were not withdrawn, but looked very cute.

Master Void Cloud sat cross-legged, the two of them facing the wall.

"It's just a wall, there's nothing to learn about, but it has a story. ”

Master Xuyun said lightly.

"Back then, a crazy man came to the outside of the temple, and after listening to the little novice in the temple, my master, Master Ci'en, asked the monks in the temple to bring him some food. But this man is really strange, not only does he not eat, but he will make a lot of noise at night. ”

Master Xuyun seemed to be caught in the memory, sighed and continued: "Some little novices were so noisy that they couldn't sleep, so they ran to this wall to see what this strange man was doing, and it turned out that this strange man was holding a branch and drawing something on the ground, and from time to time he raised his head to look at the sky, as if he was crazy, as if crying and laughing. The little novices persuaded him several times to no avail, and there was nothing he could do about this uninvited guest, so he could only overcome one or two by himself when he went to bed at night. ”

It was only early the next morning that the little novice suddenly came to report that the benefactor had died. I, my brother, and my master came here and saw the benefactor. ”

Hearing Master Xuyun say this, Ning Zhiyuan naturally knew that this "donor" must not be simple, and hurriedly asked, "Then what is this donor like?"

"His hair was disheveled, his face was full of scars, and he was wearing a black robe, but the robe was also tattered, like a beggar. ”

Ning Zhiyuan became more and more curious, frowned, and looked at Master Xuyun.

"Master and we probed the donor's snort, and found that he was already out of breath, and searched his body, except for some calculations, there was nothing else, and he didn't even know his name. Moreover, sixteen words were left on the wall. Man, pay attention to a soil for peace, we wipe his face for him, the master thinks this person is familiar, but I can't remember, the world was in turmoil, the Ji dynasty was attacked by the princes, the master was preparing to go out of the mountain to persuade the major sects, so he sent me and my brother to bury him. ”

The more Ning Zhiyuan listened, the more fascinated he became, and he forgot the purpose of Luo Ziang's invitation to come.

"When my brother and I were about to bury it in the ground, the donor suddenly jumped up from the pit, which frightened me and my brother. He pointed to his junior brother and kept muttering 'good and evil' in his mouth, and his mouth was slurred, and then he said, 'Buddha...... The Buddha ......', and finally laughed a few times, then jumped down the back hill and disappeared. ”

Master couldn't figure out the origin of this strange man, but at that time, the war situation was in crisis, so he didn't think much about it. It was only after he came back from the mountain for the first time to persuade the princes and the major sects that he figured out the identity of that person. ”

"There is also a Taoist priest who came back with the master, who is a disciple of Tianji Pavilion, called Zheng Dayan. After he glanced at his junior brother, he asserted that his junior brother had the strongest demonic nature and the strongest Buddha nature, of course, this sentence had been fulfilled at the foot of Shushan Mountain a few years ago. As for the identity of that person, Zheng Dajun's benefactor only said four words. ”

"Which four words?" Ning Zhiyuan hurriedly asked.

"Chang'an Yuan family!"

Master Xuyun closed his eyes, as if he was feeling a little heartbroken, and then said: "Good and evil are at both ends, and one heart turns into five; ”

Ning Zhiyuan didn't understand and scratched his head.

"We didn't understand it at the beginning, but Zheng Dajun's benefactor said that apes have a deep relationship with Buddhism, but the apes that appear in the future must be suppressed by the Buddha in the West. After that Zheng Dayan benefactor finished speaking, a thunderclap exploded in the clear sky, and he vomited out a mouthful of blood!"

Ning Zhiyuan seemed to understand, but he didn't understand either.

"Please make it clear to the master. ”

Master Xuyun stood up and seemed to smile bitterly.

"Our Lingyin Temple is located in the east, and in the west, there is a mountain called Blood Buddha Mountain, and there is a monk on the mountain, which is somewhat involved with my Lingyin Temple. ”

Ning Zhiyuan stood in the sunset, looking at the back of the Void Cloud Master, and suddenly remembered someone.

One of Xu Chang'an's masters, a monk who knows one!

......

Changan.

Lin Haotian received the jade talisman and frowned.

In Chang'an, he seemed to be useless, and he didn't dare to make too many moves, after all, Qi Fengjia was still there.

He looked at the jade talisman, and could only sigh and ordered: "Fu Bo, go, go to Youzhou!"

......

The Great Wall of Youzhou.

These snow demon apes were like crazy, and they kept crashing into the Great Wall, and at the foot of the Great Wall, it was already bright red and emitted a foul smell.

When the siege stopped at night, the foot of the Great Wall became a food mecca for Yuan Batian, Tao Tuntian and Qi Futian. Most of the corpses below are snow demon apes, but there are also many corpses of Terran soldiers, and the three demons keep sucking this blood, and occasionally jump on the city, steal two people down, and eat a little fresh.

Their strength has steadily improved, and their fur has become more and more red.

And in the snowy mountains, Xu Changan and they encountered danger.

Snowflakes rose in the distance, and a roar came, and they saw two phantoms in the distance.

One of the phantoms, surrounded by blood red, is like a tiger, but unlike the tiger, this phantom has a pair of wings (Qi Qi's appearance in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Classic of the West Mountains" and the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, the North of the Sea" is quite different, and the appearance of the latter is used here. This is a poor head, and the other figure is a large white bear, with thunder entwined above the phantom. The two screamed, and the phantoms rushed towards each other. Eventually, the snow came so hard that it almost buried everyone. Fortunately, Chang Moche made a timely move, which protected everyone.

That Qi Qi is obviously not the opponent of the big bear, after all, he is the great master of the lower realm, and he has broken through on the way to escape in the past few years.

It is really not easy to fight with the Great Bear of the Open Heaven Realm to this level.

The big bear slowly approached it, looking at the blood demon in front of him, his eyes showing greed.

Its paws were about to tear at the poor strange, and the poor strange shook its wings, and flew up, letting out a burst of barking.

As soon as the dog barked, the big bear's face suddenly changed, after all, the suppression of the bloodline was really there!

Qiqi's voice was different from his domineering appearance, and his howl was like rhubarb.

Rhubarb heard the sound and thought he had met the same kind. Then, the bark became stronger and stronger, and Rhubarb fainted directly.

As for Da Bai, he was also rolling on the ground with his head in his hands; Xiao Bai was better, almost unaffected, if it was affected, it was also caused by insufficient cultivation; Tao Youting and Tao Youran were the same. Xu Changan didn't feel anything when he heard this voice, after all, he sealed the demon sword body, and Chang Moche, who was the great grandmaster, changed his face and became extremely pale, and blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth!

I went home and cleaned up all kinds of things, and I had to leave again on the 27th, so I was late. Good night, everyone, I wish you all lovers on the Qixi Festival!
