Chapter 645: The Starlight Chasers (1)
Hui Chou monk is the head of Buddhism, his status is respected, and he is also the most profound person in this world, and if he says that he doesn't know much about time and death, it is the most ridiculous joke in this world.
Chao Fengchen came to Lingshan, if it was not to know the problems of the past life, it would not be realistic, so if outsiders knew that Chao Fengchen came here not to find the Hui Chou monk to know the answer, they would no longer be able to think of who Chao Fengchen was looking for.
Chao Fengchen looked at Hui Chou Monk, like looking at a Buddha, he didn't speak, but there were a thousand words in his eyes, and there was often a lot of meaning in the swords of the swordsmen, so his eyes were actually similar.
Hui Chou monk said: "If he doesn't see you, I can't help it, maybe even if he sees you and doesn't answer your questions, what's the difference if you don't see you?"
These are two very similar situations, but for Chao Fengchen, they are different.
"If he sees me, he may answer my questions, but if he doesn't see me, he will not have ideas, and he will not answer my questions. β
Chao Fengchen's eyes were as sharp as a sword, just like the sword at his waist now.
Hui Chou Monk did not speak, a character like him would not be threatened, nor would he be afraid of threats.
"Before, in the land where mountains and rivers and Buddha land meet, there was one of your sword immortals who almost beheaded Hui Si, he has not been very smart, I didn't let him leave the Buddha land before, he didn't listen to me, after going to the mountains and rivers for a while, he found that the place was not what he thought. β
"He doesn't have a lot of Buddhism, and he is not a smart person, but he wants to deal with Taoism and Confucianism, which is naturally very difficult. β
Hui Chou Monk was so straightforward and unabashedly changed the topic, but it did not make Chao Fengchen feel a little annoyed, he looked at Hui Chou Monk and asked, "You have been in the Buddha Land for so many years, and you still want to leave this place?"
"Even if the wicked have lived in hell for thousands of years, they still want to get out of hell, let alone us monks who are truly committed to the Buddha. β
Hui Chou Monk looked at Chao Fengchen and said indifferently: "When the Sword Immortal came to Lingshan several times, in addition to asking me about my death, the most common thing he said was that everything had to be fought for by himself, and there was no saying that fate was determined by heaven, even if there was, then it could be fought for." I have never heard other people's words in my life, but I think this sentence is very reasonable, and I wanted to have an in-depth discussion with Chao Jianxian at that time, but Chao Jianxian had no idea, so I had to give up. β
Chao Fengchen looked at Hui Chou Monk, not knowing what he was thinking.
What Hui Chou Monk was thinking, he didn't have to deduce to know that since the wicked people in hell were thinking about returning to the world one day, it was reasonable for the monks in the Buddha land to think about returning to the mountains and rivers one day, not to mention, it was not something that could not be done.
And Hui Si Seng is doing it.
Although it is not well done.
"Neither the Daomen nor the Confucianists want to see you go back, so this matter is difficult. β
"How hard is it?"
"How much blood will be shed, how many people will be killed, how many lives will be lost?"
Chao Fengchen's brows were tightly locked together, and when he looked at it, he felt that he was very distressed, he was not Chao Qingqiu, and he was not strong enough to use a sword to explain all the truths.
So it's hard.
"The Buddha said that all beings are equal. β
Hui Chou Monk looked at Chao Fengchen and said meaningfully: "Yes, all beings are equal. β
In front of the monk is a big Buddha, looking at the treasure is solemn, at the moment the monk does not speak, it is like the big Buddha.
The big Buddha didn't have a face, but when Hui Chou monk was quiet, he seemed to be the big Buddha.
When Chao Fengchen saw this scene, he finally couldn't help it, and asked, "Are you a saint or a Buddha?"
Hui Chou didn't speak, but he was laughing.
And at the door of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, Zen Zi looked at the white clouds in the sky, and then the whole person put his hands together very seriously and recited the Buddha's name.
The old man stood in the distance, watching the scene, silent.
......
......
In a large hall on the Ling Mountain, Hui Si Monk sat cross-legged on a futon, looking at the curtain through a curtain.
What is behind the curtain, I can't really see.
Hui Si Seng first recited a Buddhist scripture in front of the curtain, and then asked: "I never thought that their sword was so strong, I thought that the strongest sword in this world was Chao Qingqiu, but Chao Qingqiu is no longer in the world, and other swords should not be so strong." β
This is annoyance and incomprehension, but it is normal for such emotions to happen to others, but it is not normal to happen to Hui Si Sang, because he is a Buddhist saint, one of the only few saints in this world, not only the status is respected, but even the realm is also subtle.
Of course, this is relative.
But that won't be the case.
A voice of vicissitudes soon came from the curtain, "Compared with Liu Xiang six thousand years ago, Chao Qingqiu's sword is not inferior to the wind, so he is the strongest in the world, he left, and the sword in the world is naturally not so strong, but even so, the sword in the world is still robbing, and it is not something you can compare, the three sword immortals, none of them can you say can win." β
When Hui Si Seng heard such a sentence, he was silent for a moment, what others said, even what his senior brother Hui Chou said, Hui Si Seng may not necessarily listen to it in his heart, but what this one said, he was convinced.
"Now that you've annoyed the swordsman, what can you do?"
There was no sound in the curtain, apparently because he thought such a question was too stupid to answer.
Hui Si Seng asked, "Did Senior Brother come and ask?"
There was a sigh from the curtain, and then a voice came out, "He's not such a stupid person as you, he won't come and ask such a boring and boring question." β
Hui Siseng's eyes dimmed, "Senior brother really sees longer than me." β
The curtain struck without hesitation: "If he doesn't have you to see farther, he naturally won't be able to sit in the position of the head of Buddhism. β
Hui Siseng's face was pale, and he didn't know if it was because of the injury he had suffered before or because he heard this sentence, but his face was ugly anyway.
The indifferent voice in the curtain soon came out again, "The situation of mountains and rivers depends on whether there is still a Chaoqingqiu in the world, or whether there can be a second Chaoqingqiu, as for anything else, it is not too important." β
Hui Si Seng asked, "The same is true for the mountains and rivers to have a few more sword immortals?"
"A group of climbers is not as good as a sea. β
There was a sigh in the curtain, "There are a few people, take a good look." β
After saying this, there are many more words on the wall, and if you look closely, you will know the names, there are not many names, and those that are more are some special symbols, which look like some ancient words.
Hui Si Seng looked at it carefully and saw a familiar name on it.
"Ye Changting. β
"This person's sword is as strong as Chao Qingqiu!"
"His sword may be stronger than Chao Qingqiu in the future, but he is standing on the bank of the long river of time, and he can't interfere too much with the things in the river. β
"In the lower reaches of the long river of time, maybe he can be stronger than Chao Qingqiu. β
The sound in the curtain grew quieter.
"Chao Qingqiu is the strongest in this paragraph, but in the paragraph after him, it is not Ye Changting. β
Hui Si Seng didn't have to think about it at the moment to know that the person in the curtain was pointing to something and was talking, but he couldn't see this kind of thing.
It's not just that you can't see it, you may not be able to hear it.
Because the sound in the curtain has now been exhausted, and I can't hear half of it anymore.
Hui Si monk folded his hands, saluted the curtain seriously, and then slowly retreated.
ββ
Chen Sheng came fast, walked faster, this status on the mountain is respected, but the track has been elusive, even if everyone knows that he is on the mountain, but few people can meet him, many disciples on the mountain have been accustomed to the coming and going of this Chen Zhanglu, so when a certain disciple said that he saw Chen Sheng in the bamboo building, but after calling the brothers and sisters, he still did not find the trace of the uncle in charge, and he did not feel strange.
Li Fuyao stood behind the bamboo building, looking at the farce over there, and had no idea of appearing, on the other side, when it was about to disperse, Li Fuyao walked a few stones along the mountain stream, and then heard a timid voice behind him, "Senior brother." β
Brother.
Li Fuyao turned his head and looked at the young man standing in front of the bamboo building, but did not speak.
If the boy is not Zhao Dabao, who else can he be?
This realm is no longer a lowly disciple of Sword Mountain, looking at Li Fuyao standing in the stream, after shouting Senior Brother, he couldn't say half a sentence.
He hadn't seen the senior brother on the mountain with the sword box in front of him, so he naturally felt a little rusty, but he had looked carefully before, and felt that such a young one might be lower than him, but he still couldn't help it and called out to Senior Brother.
Li Fuyao looked at the young man with a sword hanging from his waist.
"Who are you?"
That's knowingly asking.
But Zhao Dabao, who heard such a question, seemed to have heard something he had never heard before, his eyes widened, his mouth widened, as early as when he went up the mountain before, there were already many disciples on the mountain who knew his name, and then after Meng Jin went up the mountain, it made Zhao Dabao's reputation much bigger, so to speak, now on the mountain, except for Wu Shanhe and that Meng Jin, Zhao Dabao's name is the loudest person.
Now there are people who don't know him.
Why wasn't Zhao Dabao surprised?
Just a moment later, he saw that the young man in front of him did not refute the senior brother he shouted before, so he continued: "Back to senior brother, I am Zhao Dabao. β
Zhao Dabao.
This must be a very loud name.
It stands to reason that the young man on the other side should have been very surprised, and then became acquainted with him, but no one expected that the young man just sighed, and then sat down on a big rock by the stream.
It seems very calm.
Zhao Dabao was confused in his mind, but soon came to the stream, stood beside Li Fuyao, and did not sit down.
Li Fuyao glanced at him and said sit.
Zhao Dabao sat down at this time.
Then Zhao Dabao asked cautiously, "Senior brother, haven't you heard my name?"
Li Fuyao glanced at him and said lightly: "I have heard that the apprentice of Chen Zhanglu on the mountain seems to have a good master. β
There is a good master, although this kind of thing is a fact on the mountain, but in fact, not many people dare to say it in person, this is to take care of Zhao Dabao's emotions, and secondly, because these things are unspeakable.
Zhao Dabao is not a simple mountain disciple.
When Zhao Dabao heard Li Fuyao say this, he quickly muttered: "My master is not a good master. β
Li Fuyao snorted, and then asked, "Your master is the master of the mountain, why is it not good?"
This is still knowingly asked.
Zhao Dabao said honestly: "Master is very lazy, he is not willing to teach me to practice swords, most of my swordsmanship is taught by other uncles and uncles on the mountain, otherwise it is taught by the ancestor, not the master." β
Li Fu shook his breath, and then said: "Chen Zhanglu has always liked to travel in the world, and he is unwilling to spend time on his disciples, and it is not the first time, but I heard that you had a master before you went up the mountain, why do you still want to go to Sword Mountain to learn swords?"
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Dabao became interested, "Master said that I am talented, and he wants me to practice my sword well on the mountain, practice my sword well and become a great swordsman, and I may even become a sword immortal, but Master can't teach me by himself, so I was asked to go up the mountain, saying that as long as I learn the sword well, I can meet at the bottom of the mountain one day......"
Speaking of which, the corners of Zhao Dabao's eyes were already full of tears, if this little guy who was unwilling to climb the Sword Mountain hadn't thought about the master's instructions, he was afraid that he would have been unable to hold on earlier, and he was still practicing swords, but he was afraid that it would be difficult to even live.
Separated from the master who depended on him, the pain was too obvious for a teenager like him.
Li Fuyao turned his head and rubbed the young man's head, thought for a while, and then said: "Since you have gone up the mountain, you will practice your sword well, don't think too much about other things, your talent is good, although Chen Zhanglu is not reliable, but there are still many reliable teachers on the mountain." β
Zhao Dabao nodded, looked at this senior brother who had never met before, and asked cautiously: "Senior brother, when the senior brothers on the mountain saw me, they all greeted me with smiling faces, I know that it was because of my identity, but why did you see me, senior brother, you didn't have any expression?"
Li Fuyao said with a straight face: "If you want others to respect you, you have to be powerful, if you just rely on external things, it will naturally not last long, at least for me, I don't care about your identity." β
Zhao Dabao nodded desperately, he looked at Li Fuyao and said: "Senior brother, I have always thought like this, but the senior brothers don't think so, in fact, I have seen their heads grow these days, and then I don't like to deal with them, and they say that I don't have a good temper, I know that this will definitely not be said in front of me, but it will definitely be said in my heart, I don't like them very much." β
"Senior brother, it's just that I saw you, and I know that not everyone on the mountain is like this anymore. β
Zhao Dabao looked at Li Fuyao, and the happy emotions in his eyes were naturally revealed, and it was not a little fake.
Li Fuyao smiled, people like Zhao Dabao are rare in this world, let alone monks like them.
It's just that cultivators have always said that they should be ruthless and forgetful, but then they say that they must have a pure heart.
People like Zhao Dabao naturally have a pure heart.
However, in the long cultivation career later, whether it will be gradually lost, in fact, it is very difficult to say, but whether it will or not, it is Zhao Dabao's own experience, and to a certain extent, what will happen to him in the future lies in the influence of many things, it is possible that Li Fuyao and his words today will make Zhao Dabao remember for a lifetime, so that he can maintain it until the end, of course, it may only last for a short time, but no matter what, for Zhao Dabao, this is a benefit, this kind of thing can't be fake, and it can't be fakeγ
Li Fuyao looked at the moonlight in the sky, as if he remembered an interesting thing, he smiled: "In fact, whether it is on the mountain or under the mountain, there are very beautiful things to see, if you keep staring at the unsightly, it is really not good-looking, our eyes are on our own body, naturally we have to look at the kind of good-looking." β
The good-looking and the not-good-looking are also judged by Zhao Dabao.
Zhao Dabao nodded, also looked up at the moonlight, and asked softly: "Senior brother, you are really an interesting person, I don't know which uncle's disciple, when I see that uncle next time, I will definitely tell my uncle that my brother is actually very good." β
Li Fuyao touched his head, and then said with a smile: "If you want to see my master, it will probably be as difficult as meeting your master." β
Seeing how difficult it is for Chen Sheng, it is estimated that even if he pulls out a disciple from the mountain at random, he can explain it clearly.
As soon as Zhao Dabao thought of this, he sighed and looked at the senior brother sitting here with a rather sympathetic look.
Li Fuyao bent down and took a handful of water in the water, then let it go casually, and asked casually: "You didn't study the Sword Sutra in the house, why did you come out?"
Zhao Dabao raised his head suddenly, as if he knew something, he looked at Li Fuyao, there was something indescribable in his eyes, and after a long time, he asked suspiciously: "How does Senior Brother know that I am studying the Sword Sutra?"
In comparison, Li Fuyao was much calmer, he looked at Zhao Dabao and said casually: "There is a light in your bamboo building, if I don't want to study the Sword Sutra, what else will it be?"
On the Sword Mountain, the lights are still on at night, which should be the most reasonable way to say that it is to study the Sword Sutra.
Zhao Dabao was relieved, he didn't doubt whether Li Fuyao was a disciple of Sword Mountain, he was just worried, if Li Fuyao was calculating these things, then he didn't just ask.
Maybe it's been premeditated for a long time.
Naturally, there are also bad intentions.
Li Fuyao glanced at Zhao Dabao and knew what he was thinking, smiled slightly, just rubbed this guy's head, nothing else was done, and there was nothing worth doing.
Li Fuyao sat by the stream, talked a lot of gossip with Zhao Dabao, and finally lowered his head and drank a sip of mountain stream water, and then asked: "A long time ago, someone sat with me, drank wine, watched the moonlight, and said a lot of gossip, and finally I said, I am fortunate to be able to drink with the sword fairy, guess what he said?"
Zhao Dabao was actually very sleepy, but he still tried to keep his eyes open and think hard, and then said, "Did that sword immortal say that it was nature?"
Li Fu shook his head and said, "That sword immortal didn't say that. β
"What did you say?"
Zhao Dabao's sleepiness was much less, but he was still not very energetic, Li Fuyao looked at Zhao Dabao and said with a smile: "What that Sword Immortal said is that I am also fortunate to drink with the future Sword Immortal." β
Zhao Dabao opened his mouth wide, this is the first time he doesn't know how many times he has opened his mouth today.
Tonight's events were really unexpected, and he didn't know if it was real.
Li Fuyao asked again: "Then do you know who that sword immortal is?"
Zhao Dabao still shook his head.
"Chao Jian Immortal, you must know him. β
Zhao Dabao nodded desperately, he may not know anyone else, but that sword immortal, he definitely knows it.
That's Chao Jian Xian, that is, he said that he could become a sword immortal.
Li Fuyao looked at Zhao Dabao, there was a smile in the corner of his eyes, and then said, "Do you know that I am?"
Zhao Dabao was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "By the way, senior brother, I haven't asked your name yet." β
There are a lot of things on the mountain, but Zhao Dabao is dedicated to studying the Sword Sutra, and he rarely knows the things on the mountain, even if his senior brother comes to Sword Mountain, he doesn't know yet.
Li Fuyao stood up, stood under the moonlight, looked at Zhao Dabao and said: "If you don't come to Sword Mountain, it definitely doesn't matter who I am, but since you have arrived in Sword Mountain, you have to know, I, called Li Fuyao, is not any other powerful person, but one thing please remember, if you are bullied, before you are bullied, as long as you are right, you can report my name, if you are bullied, you can still live, come and tell me, this is not for anything else, just because of you, it is my Li Fuyao's little junior brother." β
"I, Li Fuyao, am reasonable and kill people, but what I haven't done before is to protect my shortcomings, and I will definitely be able to do it in the future, because I have a little junior brother like you. β
After saying this, Li Fuyao squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Little junior brother, when we meet for the first time, take care of me." β
Zhao Dabao's eyes widened, and he was so frightened that he couldn't speak.
I said these things before, and the feelings are all nonsense?
It turns out that this is his senior brother?
"Senior brother, you ......"
Li Fuyao looked at Zhao Dabao like this, smiled from ear to ear, he put his hand on his head again and smiled: "I saw your other master before I came to Jianshan, I chatted with him for a while, said a lot of things, and he entrusted me to take good care of you." β
"Although you have picked up a not very good master, but you, senior brother, should be not bad, right?"
Zhao Dabao nodded desperately, he didn't know what to say, he never thought about it, how could he meet with his senior brother like this, you must know that all the disciples on the mountain, I am afraid that they are not as famous as their own senior brother, whether it was in the demon land before, or in the mountains and rivers, Li Fuyao's reputation has long been spread, for his senior brother who has never met, Zhao Dabao has also thought a lot, but he never thought that his senior brother would be such a person, he doesn't look like a powerful character at all, and it seems to be like a brother next door, so kindγ
Li Fu shook his head, sighed, and said with some distress: "Originally, I didn't have any good things, in fact, the best things are still those swords on my body, but the ancestor has already taken one for you, and I will give you more superfluous, but I don't have anything else, it's really annoying." β
Looking at Li Fuyao's appearance, Zhao Dabao smiled, knowing his senior brother's temperament, he didn't care too much, just said: "Don't worry, senior brother will make up for it next time." β
This is the attitude that only people who treat those close to them have attitude.
Li Fuyao turned his head and pretended to be surprised and said, "I never thought that you would be such a little junior brother." β
But when he changed his hand, he took out a bamboo and wood scabbard from somewhere and placed it in front of Zhao Dabao, the sword before Zhao Dabao did not have a scabbard, and now Li Fuyao gave him a scabbard, which can be regarded as complementing each other.
"This scabbard was given to me by Uncle Liu when I practiced swords in Sword Mountain, Uncle Liu was the most powerful sword qi on the three roads of sword qi and swordsmanship, of course, he also likes to drink, he gave me two things, this scabbard was the first time I used a wooden sword, he made it for me, and then the wine gourd that was given to me was given to you by my brother, and now the scabbard is given to you, don't dislike it. β
Zhao Dabao took the scabbard, and there was still a line of small characters engraved on the scabbard, the dragon flew and the phoenix danced, and he felt full of momentum when he looked at it:
There are countless swordsmen in the world, but I am alone.
Liu Yibai was the uncle back then.
Zhao Dabao touched the scabbard and looked very happy.
Li Fuyao looked at him, was silent for a while, and then asked: "Master doesn't care about you, it doesn't necessarily mean that he is a bad person, others have always cared about you, and it is not necessarily a good person." β
"Right and wrong, you need to judge for yourself. β
After saying this, the night was already very deep, Li Fuyao rubbed Zhao Dabao's head and asked him to go to sleep, while he slowly left the mountain stream after Zhao Dabao left.
He returned to Jianshan, in addition to discussing the matter of Luoyang City with Wu Shanhe, now there is another old master to teach Meng Jin, the matter between Luoyang City and Jianshan is not a big deal, after all, both sides have intentions, and the matter will soon have a result, but Meng Jin, this side is very tricky.
This justifiable old master of Sword Mountain, after going up the mountain, he has not made any movements, so it is even more difficult to move.
Li Fuyao wants to move, that is, he will move his whole body.
But Wu Shanhe can't do anything, Chen Sheng can't do anything, and Li Fuyao can do something.
Because of his subtle identity, and Chen Sheng's apprentice, and not a disciple of Jianshan, these conditions have already created Li Fuyao's unique identity, so he has to break this situation.
But how to break it.
This is the conundrum before him.
What is Meng Jin going up the mountain for, there is no sign yet, before Chen Sheng said that now Zhou Qing is not on the mountain, and he will be able to get the answer soon, so he needs to wait.
Li Fuyao was also ready to wait.
It's just that he didn't expect that when the time came, the time would come.
There was a news that quickly spread throughout Sword Mountain.
