CHAPTER XVI
"Amitabha, donor, can you beg for vegetarian food" An old monk came in at the door with a hat, a bowl and a shopkeeper in his right hand and said.
The shopkeeper on the side saw that he was busy running over, and pushed the old monk with a look of disgust: "Go and go, turn your fate to another place, don't disturb our store to do business." ”
The people around him were already surprised, but Wang Xiyu blinked his eyes and asked, "Uncle, why don't we give this dish to this monk?"
Zong You raised his head and shouted to the other side: "Little Er, please come here for that master." ”
Zong You didn't blink when he paid the bill before, Xiao Er had already wanted to find an opportunity to ask for some reward, so he hurriedly put on a smiling face, and even his voice became gentle: "Master, come inside, please." ”
Zong You made a gesture to invite the monk to sit down, and said to Xiao Er: "Bring a pair of dishes and chopsticks to the master." Then he brought the two vegetarian dishes to the monk's table: "Master, please." ”
"Thank you to the donor, but the poor monk only eats vegetable oil. ”
"I was negligent, Xiao Er, you heard it. With that, he casually threw a small piece of broken silver.
The shopkeeper was overjoyed: "Okay, uncle, it'll be fine in a while." ”
"The donor is kind-hearted, and he should be blessed in the past. ”
Wang Xiyu tilted his head and asked, "Master, what kind of fortune will my uncle have?" ”
Zong You glared at Wang Xiyu: "Don't blame the master, the little girl doesn't know how to be polite." ”
The monk clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, it doesn't matter, the little donor has suffered a lot, and he can still have a pure heart, which is commendable." It turned out that Wang Xiyu's words had been listened to by the old monk before.
"Hmph, old bald donkey, I can't find you anywhere, so I was hiding here to cheat and eat and drink. A person in a black and white robe suddenly appeared at the door of the inn, his eyebrows lowered, about mid-middle, with one hand to whisk the dust, and the voice was so loud that it could be heard by half of the city.
"Why should the benefactor be like this? ”
"My senior brother died tragically under your bald donkeys, and I have searched all over the trail for ten years, and finally found this clue to you. How can I let it go?" mentioned the senior brother, and the Taoist priest's voice became a little louder.
"If you cling to one thought, you will be trapped in one thought, and if you let go of one thought, you will be free in your heart. The old monk turned around and said.
"Don't talk to me about any Buddhist teachings, I just know that killing pays for life. ”
"If this is the case, the poor monk's life, the benefactor can take it. ”
"I want your life to do something, don't talk nonsense, take me to your uncle, let you slip away a few times, don't force me to do it here. After saying that, the dust was raised high.
"Wait, don't hurt the innocent. The old monk glanced at the two behind him and followed the Taoist priest out of the inn.
"Uncle, should we go up and take a look?" Zong You shook his head, since it was a personal grudge, he didn't want to get involved, besides, looking at the breath of the two of them, if he moved, the old monk would not necessarily lose. Just as the two of them returned to the guest room, Zong You said "huh" lightly, although he had no intention of helping the old monk, he still divided his snacks and explored over there. The monk followed the Taoist priest all the way out of the city to a willow forest, and the two did not continue to talk, but directly started to move.
The Taoist priest whisked dust in his hand, and I don't know what kind of Buddha made of animal hair grew up crazy and wrapped around each other. Seeing this, the monk's expression was as usual, his body was as motionless as a rock, allowing the silk threads to be entangled, and he stood up with one hand and shouted softly: "Om" The silk thread broke instantly. The Taoist snorted a little unexpectedly, his eyes widened, he muttered a few words in his mouth, threw the dust into the air with one hand, and constantly gave birth to silk threads to wrap around the monk, and then took out a gossip mirror, held the mirror high with one hand, and pinched a sword finger against his forehead with the other: "Heaven and Earth Xuanzong Ten thousand qi roots, Nanming is away from the fire." The Bagua Mirror flashed three times in a row, giving birth to three white flames, and the surroundings became hot with the flames.
When the old monk saw the white flames shooting towards him, he was no longer calm, and hurriedly broke the silk thread and sat cross-legged, throwing out the bowl in his left hand to cover himself in an instant. The bowl was wrapped in white flames, and the scriptures engraved on it had already shown signs of melting, and the golden light on the old monk in the bowl flickered and couldn't help but recite the law, but after a few breaths, his whole body was already soaked. The Daoist priest outside the bowl turned pale and said loudly: "Old bald donkey, do you really want to die? Tell me the whereabouts of your uncle, and I will take this fire." ”
The old monk gasped: "Why should the donor be forced to do so. ”
"Then I'll break your magic weapon," the priest spurted out a mouthful of blood, and the fire instantly swelled. The bowl visibly melted and deformed.
A Buddhist voice sounded: "Fanyin, Great Compassion Hand" Seeing that it couldn't be resisted, under the danger, the old monk directly broke the bowl and bowl with one move. The fragments scattered with the white flames, and the magic weapon that had lost its spiritual power was burned into nothingness in the air.
The same move appeared, Zong You picked up Wang Xiyu and teleported to the sky above the willow forest, and the two below looked at each other and didn't make another move, afraid that the mana had been exhausted.
The two were quite surprised by the Zongyou that fell from the sky. "Stop for now. Zong You asked the old monk, "The move that the master used just now is from the Jialan Temple?
“.....”
Seeing that the old monk did not answer, the Taoist priest sneered: "Not only do you know!
"Master don't have to scruple, I have no grudge against Master Ling. After speaking, he thought for a while and then said, "I want to know about Huji Mountain." ”
The old monk looked around: "I see, the poor monk has been looking for a benefactor for a long time. ”
"Have you finished talking about the old one, I don't know where you came from, what does it have to do with this bald donkey, if you insist on meddling between me and him, don't blame me. The Taoist priest who had recovered some mana raised the gossip mirror and said to the three of them.
"Amitabha, the donor can come with me to find a teacher. ”
The Taoist priest was a little puzzled: "Oh?"
"The impermanence of green waves and the white light appear, and the broken prints can be seen. ”
"Master, what do you mean?"
"This is the poor monk down the mountain when the teacher gave me the words, the poor monk first started with the green wave to solve, originally thought that the green wave refers to the lake, but did not think of the sea of trees. ”
Zong You looked at the willow forest and nodded, "Then what is this impermanence?" Following the old monk's gaze, he realized that black and white impermanence refers to a Taoist priest wearing a black and white Taoist robe.
The Taoist priest came to his senses and said angrily: "The poor Taoist cultivates the immortal Dao, what black and white impermanence!"
"Your Excellency has just moved the murderous intent, and you are free to come to ask for your life as if you were impermanent. The latter sentence must not need to be explained by the poor monk. ”
"Hehe, your master is better than a Taoist. ”
"The three of them can go to the Jialan Temple with the poor monks, but the donor can't go to the Sky Method. ”
Zong You asked, "Why?"
The old monk smiled: "In the future, the donor will naturally know." ”
A few people went all the way east, and the old monk didn't say where the Jialan Temple was, and insisted on asking a few people to walk on foot, so the Taoist priest complained many times. After a few days of getting along, I learned that the old monk had a strange Dharma name and was called Xu Weizhi. The monk of Wusheng is silent, Xu Weizhi seems to be a fairy wind and bones, but he is a chattering character in his bones, and he is often guarded against Zongyou at first, but with the dull and boring all the way, his true nature is slowly revealed. From the famous mountains and rivers to the customs, the sectarian families to the hidden treasures, the ancient rumors and the demon myths are all talked about. What made Wang Xiyu listen was relish, her eyes lit up, and she admired it a little.
After getting acquainted, Zong You also learned from Xu Weizhi about his grievances with Wusheng. Xu Wei's family was poor, living a barely hungry life, and there was a perennial war in the place where he was, and his parents had to take him away, but he died on the way to escape. Xu was fortunate to meet someone when he was starving and dying of hunger, his senior brother Congchenghe. I don't know if I saw him pitiful, or found that he had some bones, so I took Xu Wei back to the mountain.
Tianyi is not a big sect, and the realm of the head Zhang Chenzi is not high, but the self-created Four Hexagram Calling Runes is famous. Zhang Chenzi is a kind person and highly respects the cause and effect of Buddhism, but for some reason he did not enter Buddhism, but cultivated the Tao. Accept apprentices and don't look at the qualifications, from Chenghe is its eighth disciple, it stands to reason that Xu Wei should only be a named disciple to clean the mountain gate after going up the mountain, but inexplicably also worshiped Zhang Chenzi as a teacher, the people were puzzled, and he replied: "This son has a fate with me." "Not to mention anything else. Therefore, Xu Weizhi, who was only ten years old, became the junior brother of many disciples of Tianyi.
The young Xu Weizhi witnessed the displacement of thousands of people, and watched his parents die fighting for food, and after going up the mountain, in addition to his daily homework, he rarely spoke, and he also had few words to Cong Chenghe, and his fellow brothers often laughed, which made Xu Weizhi more and more withdrawn. Fortunately, Congcheng and others are not like others, and they often care about Xu Wei, and every time they go down the mountain, they will bring something fun to eat. Gradually, Xu Zhi came out of the shadows, and in the sky, Xu Zhi's closest person was Congchenghe. Ten years on the mountain, Xu Weizhi's qualifications were slowly revealed, and the seniority in the division was also justified, one day, Zhang Chenzi called the two brothers and sisters, and asked them to go to the Demon Valley to get a flower with a strange name, and the two were ordered to go down the mountain.
The Demon Valley was originally called the Dragon Demon Valley, and it is rumored that there is a real dragon corpse at the bottom of the valley, and the demonic spirit is still not dispersed for tens of thousands of years. With this demonic spirit, a lot of famous demons have been raised, and finally the human race does not want the demon clan to have such a treasure land, and they joined forces to target the Dragon Demon Valley, but they have never found the so-called real dragon corpse, so they have to kill the demon clan who is too high, during which the demon clan power also shot a few times, and after several big battles, no one was pleased, but the Demon Valley was half destroyed. In the end, the two sides agreed on three chapters, those with a high realm are not allowed to enter the mountain, the demon clan cannot stay in the valley when it reaches a certain realm, and the human race is not allowed to destroy the demon valley.
From Chenghe is to die in the Demon Valley, but not killed by the demon clan, but died in the hands of a younger brother and three idiots, mentioning Jialan Temple or a house few people know, if you say that there are many rumors when the three idiots arrive, the three idiots are not the law name but the nickname, this person is an idiot to eliminate demons, two idiots to cultivate, three idiots to drink. No matter whether the demons in the world are good or evil, whenever they are encountered by him, they must surrender and be destroyed in the heavens and the earth. Buddhism quits drinking, he is addicted to alcohol, and if it weren't for the fear of being kicked out of the temple early.
