"Okay, let's go back to dinner, I've been looking for you for a long time. ”

Li Mengru beckoned, and then took the lead in turning around and walking towards the residence, Jiang Ming was stunned for a moment, and followed closely, only to feel that too many things had happened today, and he forgot that it was time to eat.

The two of them returned to their rooms, and the meals had already been delivered by a special person, and after Jiang Ming had eaten, he fell asleep in this strange place.

.......

Early the next morning, Li Mengru just pushed the door out, but he saw Jiang Ming playing Yuqing swordsmanship in the empty courtyard as usual, and couldn't help but smile. ”

Jiang Ming scratched his head and said, "Master has been advised, you can't ......"

"Alright, got it!"

He didn't finish speaking, but was interrupted by Li Mengru waving his hand, then sighed, and said angrily: "The one named Cheng Li is nowhere to be seen, so it's boring to hang us here like this." ”

Jiang Ming looked at a circle of well-arranged residences, but it was quiet and abnormal, more deserted than the Heart Cultivation Palace, and couldn't help but echo: "Yes." ”

"Alas......."

The sun gradually rose, filling the entire courtyard, and the two chatted for a long time, and unconsciously talked about the martial arts competition in the villa.

Li Mengru smacked her lips and said, "Idle is also idle, then you hurry up and practice the art of controlling things, and when you have mastered it and reached a certain realm, you can also use my trick." ”

Jiang Ming naturally understood, the competition between Senior Sister and Yue Bufan was in her eyes, and that move was naturally the long sword that she controlled to fall at a critical moment to stab the opponent, which was extremely dangerous at that time, but that sword was indeed incredible, so that everyone remembered it clearly, this woman was indeed very qualified in the path of cultivation.

Li Mengru sat aside, watching him take out a bamboo leaf from his arms and place it on the ground.

Jiang Ming crossed his legs, closed his eyes and concentrated, and began his boring practice.

After a while, Jiang Ming's brows furrowed slightly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, which looked quite exhausting, but he didn't know why, even though he worked hard, he was still the same as before, he could only sense the bamboo leaves, but he still couldn't control it, making it move for half a minute.

When he was thinking hard, suddenly there was a slight "chirp" sound not far away, Jiang Ming didn't dare to be distracted at all, but Li Mengru was quite surprised, so he followed the prestige, and saw the door of a house in the south of the courtyard, the door was open, and there was a monk dressed in moon-white monk's clothes, presumably a monk from the Thousand Buddha Temple.

The monk was also slightly surprised when he saw Jiang Ming and Li Mengru, and then smiled at Li Mengru, and paced towards this side.

Li Mengru saw that the monk looked a few years older than herself, but he was a kind monk who was not stained with red dust, and his smile seemed to have a little compassion, which was completely different from the monks she had seen in the world, and a little solemnity rose inexplicably in her heart.

Seeing that the monk approached, Li Mengru also stood up, blinked, and said, "You...... It must be a monk of the Thousand Buddha Temple. ”

The monk folded his hands, bent down slightly, and said, "My name is Jingkong, and the two donors must be from Xiaotaoyuan Villa." ”

The monk's voice is very soft, giving people a soft feeling, and he is also very polite in his gestures.

Li Mengru remembered what she said to Cheng Li before, although it was right, but she still had a slight sarcasm in her heart, and at this time she smiled slightly embarrassedly and said, "The clear space monk guessed right, my name is Li Mengru." ”

As she spoke, she pointed to Jiang Ming, who was still sitting on the ground, and said, "This is my junior brother, called Jiang Ming." ”

Jingkong glanced at Jiang Ming, nodded, and said with a smile: "Although you and I have different sects, we are both the right way in the world, and we are all in the same breath, just call me Senior Brother Jingkong." ”

Li Mengru was surprised, the Thousand Buddha Temple is a big faction in the world, one of the pillars of the righteous path, the small Taoyuan Villa is naturally incomparable, at this time the clear space is approachable, very kind, really different from the monks he usually sees, can't help but have a little more good impression of the monk, that is: "Brother Jingkong is really a high monk, open-mindedness, it is really admirable." ”

Hearing this, Jingkong shook his head and didn't answer, but just glanced at Jiang Ming again and asked, "Master Jiang is practicing techniques such as induction. ”

"Ah...... Oh, yes. ”

Li Mengru was slightly surprised, but she didn't expect that Qingkong just glanced at it, and saw the subtlety in it, and couldn't help but cast a puzzled look.

Jingkong smiled slightly, and said: "I Guan Jiang donor has no distractions, and his face is slightly tired, presumably it is to consume his mind and enter an ethereal state, which is similar to our Buddhist meditation, presumably it is to practice some kind of induction technique." ”

"That's right, this is exactly the Daomen's art of controlling things. ”

Li Mengru was slightly shocked in her heart, Jingkong is not only kind and kind, but also has a bright and intelligent eye, and the disciples of the main sect in the righteous path in the world are really extraordinary.

"The Art of Controlling Things......"

Jingkong muttered lightly, and said: "I also know a little bit about it, this technique comes from the Daomen, and it pays attention to the induction of external objects, and when it is completed, you can control external objects as you like, which is really magical." ”

After speaking, he praised again and again: "Master Jiang Shi has an extraordinary divine sword at such an age, and he can cultivate such a mysterious technique, he is really a heroic boy." ”

When Li Mengru heard that her junior brother was praised, an irrepressible joy immediately rose in her heart, and she didn't laugh yet, but she suddenly remembered something, her face was slightly gloomy, she glanced at Jiang Ming, and said with a little anger: "What a heroic boy, my junior brother is stupid, no matter how you teach, you just can't learn!"

The two had been talking softly, and her sentence suddenly raised her voice, and Jiang Ming on the side seemed to be awakened, moved his body, and looked over with a bitter face.

Jingkong was stunned for a moment, then folded his hands and chanted a Buddha name in a low voice, saying, "Master Jiang." ”

"Uh......."

Jiang Ming was slightly puzzled, and before he could stand up, he only felt that his legs and feet were numb, and he almost sat down on the ground again, he barely maintained his figure, stomped his feet fiercely, and limped towards the two.

Seeing this scene, Li Mengru frowned slightly, her eyes stared at Jiang Ming tightly, with a slight chill, she had just been praised as a "heroic boy", but at this time, she made this ugly state again, she glanced at the clear space with an immobile face, held back the dissatisfaction in her heart, and said: "This is the clear space senior brother of the Thousand Buddha Temple." ”

"Ahh

Jiang Ming's shock was beyond words, his mouth opened slightly, and he was stunned for a long time before he reacted, and hurriedly arched his hand: "Clean...... Hello Brother Clearance. ”

Li Mengru looked at him and glared at him, not knowing what to say.

Jingkong bowed slightly, and said slightly apologetically: "I'm sorry for Master Jiang, I disturbed you to practice magic, if this makes the donor's previous efforts go to waste, I can be said to be to blame." ”

"No, nothing. ”

Jiang Ming was dumbfounded, looking at the clear space and apologizing to himself, he panicked even more, quickly shook his head, and after calming down, he smiled and said: "What bother, I am stupid in qualifications, and my perception of this practice is far from the same, it is not as good as before." ”

Although he said it very easily, there was still a bit of inexplicable bitterness in his tone, as if he was sarcastic and secretly annoyed that he was too stupid.

Seeing all this, Jingkong looked at it in his eyes, and his expression seemed to be slightly regretful, and then he whispered a Buddha name, and said: "Master Jiang has a lot of thoughts in his heart, and he is too troubled in his heart, so that's why he is here?"

Jiang Ming was taken aback, he was all right, after he did come here, after many things, he had been restless, he always felt empty, and he didn't have a sense of security, and this time he practiced the art of controlling things, and his sense was not as strong as when he was in Xiaotaoyuan Villa before, let alone controlling that tiny bamboo leaf.

Looking at Jiang Ming's surprised expression, Jingkong smiled slightly, and explained: "We people in the Buddhist sect have to meditate every day, and if we have too many disturbances, we will not be able to do our homework, which is quite similar to the magic practiced by the donor. ”

"That's right......"

Jiang Ming's expression was complicated, and after hearing these words, he didn't have a trace of sudden realization after being puzzled, but he was even more depressed, but he just responded in a sneering voice.

Li Mengru on the side looked at Jiang Ming quietly, and a strange emotion suddenly rose in her heart, connecting everything that happened last night, as if it was so weird.

Does the junior brother really have something on his mind?

He doesn't want to talk, and I, can I share it for him?

Since when did he rarely smile, always frowning, and seemed to be a little less lively and innocent than before......

When Li Mengru thought of this, she suddenly felt bad in her heart, bit her lip lightly, and said softly: "Senior Brother Jingkong is well-informed, can there be a way?"

Jingkong clasped his hands together and said, "Yes." ”

After he finished speaking, he seemed to remember some of the past, and said with a smile: "According to my master's words, my senior brother is unstable in his mind and easy to be irritable, so the Dharma name is meditation, but when he meditates, he is still unable to settle down. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Ming and said, "If the Jiang donor is willing, I am willing to copy a copy, but it has the effect of calming the mind, and if it is really helpful to the donor, it can be regarded as a merit." ”

Jiang Ming was very grateful when he heard Jingkong say this, but he thought about it again and said softly: "That's it...... Isn't that okay?"

Jingkong shook his head, folded his hands, and said: "The Dharma is not the law of one person, but the law of all living beings, and this can be regarded as my preaching of the Dharma, if it is really beneficial to the benefactor's practice, why not do it?"
