Lu Xuan was stunned and didn't turn a corner for a long time.

Calculate the age, Chu Linglong should be one year younger than herself, and it is normal to call her junior sister. Although Lu Xuan was slanderous in his heart, he didn't know how to explain it, and Chu Linglong's apricot eyes suddenly widened, and he sneered: "What? don't want to? Do you know that I have entered the Lingyun Sect since my mother's womb? What's more, I was in retreat before you entered the mountain, no matter how you count me, I'm your senior sister, that's right?"

That's right, but you are the daughter of the sect master, and you are not his disciple in the first place, so why bother with rankings?

But thinking about the kindness of the master and the master to himself, Lu Xuan couldn't find any reason to refuse.

"Division...... Masters. ”

Lu Xuan muttered a little frustratedly.

"What did you say? I didn't hear that. Chu Linglong leaned in with Lu Xuan, and a strand of hair brushed his cheeks, slightly itchy. Lu Xuan suddenly smelled a trace of intoxicating fragrance, which made him suddenly feel a little nervous, and almost subconsciously said loudly: "Senior sister!"

"Well, good!" Chu Linglong was happy, patted Lu Xuan's head and said with a smile: "You will be the eleventh child in the future, but if someone bullies you, you will report the name of the senior sister, and the senior sister will cover you!"

Lu Xuan smiled bitterly and nodded, and suddenly felt like worshipping the dock.

Chu Linglong seemed to have solved a major matter, and breathed a long sigh of relief, stretching her waist like a lazy cat, and gently leaning on the railing to look at the long sky and the canal.

"It is said that the mortal world is full of flowers, and I think it is just like that, how can it be as gorgeous as the Xianmen? tonight's matter is almost settled, and we should go back to the mountain soon......" Chu Linglong looked at the void and said lightly, returning to the quiet and indifferent appearance just now.

Lu Xuan looked at her beautiful side face, and suddenly realized that this girl who was one year younger than herself was probably the first time to come to the world.

She had been in retreat since she was a child, and she had just come out of the retreat more than a year ago, so how could she see this mortal scene? Seeing her lively and jumpy, I don't know how much torture she suffered during the retreat. Thinking of this, Lu Xuan suddenly couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his heart.

At this moment, a bell suddenly rang in the distance.

Lu Xuan's heart moved, and he suddenly turned around and ran downstairs. Chu Linglong didn't pay attention to Lu Xuan, just silently looked into the distance, and didn't know what she was thinking in her heart. The bell in the distance was still ringing, and I don't know how long it took, Chu Linglong heard footsteps behind him. looked back, but saw that it was Lu Xuan who ran back with a bunch of small mountain-like paper tubes. Chu Linglong was a little unsure for a while, so she could only watch Lu Xuan happily fill the roof with those large and small, colorful paper tubes.

"What is this?" Chu Linglong asked curiously.

Lu Xuan smiled but didn't answer, and came straight to Chu Linglong's side, counting the numbers in his mouth.

"Twelve...... Thirteen ......"

Chu Linglong pushed Lu Xuan impatiently, "What are you doing?"

"Count the bells, this bell should have been one hundred and eight bells, and the Buddhists call it one hundred and eight bells. After the bell rings, the festival of lights will begin. But today, when I disliked that one hundred and eight rings was too long, I changed it to eighteen rings, you listen...... Eighteen rings!"

Lu Xuan pointed to the vast world in front of him and said loudly:

"Look!"

The world seems to have a moment of tranquility, and then suddenly it is like a blazing fire.

Rumble!

I don't know how many thunderous roars sounded from all directions, and then countless colored lights went straight to the sky, and at that moment, there seemed to be a downpour in the huge capital against the sky, and then the sound of explosion was endless, and the sky suddenly seemed to bloom countless huge flowers, and for a time it was purple and red, filling the night sky. Chu Linglong was stunned for a moment, and when she looked at it in a daze, she saw a scene of flowers in all directions, one round of fireworks and another round, and the stars were bright and bright, warm and jubilant.

"This ...... Is this fireworks?" Chu Linglong looked up and muttered like a dream.

Lu Xuan smiled, pointed to the vast capital under the sky, and said softly: "Look below." ”

Chu Linglong looked at it as she said.

There was jubilation in the capital, and countless colorful lights were lit up at the same time, as if a splendid sea of flowers was spreading. I saw that the long streets, alleys, and high-rise buildings were lit with colorful flames, and the whole capital was as bright as day at this moment, and it was like a colorful Milky Way. The crowd on the long street is surging, and there are people in the crowd carrying colorful high-rise buildings, like Qionglou Yuyu, colorful light, and there are also children happily carrying small lanterns to jump, and there are thunders of joy everywhere. The city is full of enthusiasm, especially on the canal.

I saw that thousands of people had gathered ashore beside the canal, all holding all kinds of colored lanterns in their hands, most of them in the shape of rosettes, and they were putting them into the canal water one after another. The lanterns drifted like boats, and in a blink of an eye, the entire canal lit up, as if thousands of red lotuses were blooming, which was spectacular.

"Is this the Lantern Festival......" Chu Linglong was even more fascinated, but she was completely sunk in this magnificent and enthusiastic scene.

Lu Xuan lit a stick of incense and handed it to Chu Linglong's hand.

Chu Linglong took the incense blankly, but she didn't know what Lu Xuan meant. Lu Xuan pointed to the large and small paper tubes on the roof, and said with a smile: "These were originally fireworks to be set off by my family, and I moved them all......" Before Lu Xuan finished speaking, Chu Linglong suddenly let out a scream of surprise, and rushed over happily like a child.

She was self-taught, and in a blink of an eye, she found the place where the medicine twist was, lit it gently, and suddenly fireworks rose into the sky. Chu Linglong giggled, and quickly pounced on the next firework, busy and happy. Lu Xuan stood there and watched Chu Linglong shuttle through the fireworks like a butterfly wearing flowers, with a childlike smile on her face.

Lu Xuan found that Chu Linglong's smile was wonderfully infectious, not the subtlety of those ladies and even the little family jasper laughing, but blooming and unscrupulous, as if there was infinite magic, and even he couldn't help but smirk.

Looking at the shadow in the green smoke, like a fairy dancing on the white clouds above the nine heavens, cheerful, natural, and innocent, Lu Xuan suddenly felt that he might not be able to forget this scene in front of him in his life.

Chu Linglong was immersed in the joy of setting off fireworks for the first time in her life, but suddenly there was a thunderous cheer in the distance.

"What's the show?" Chu Linglong ran to Lu Xuan's side excitedly and looked at it.

I saw a large flat-topped boat floating slowly on the canal a few miles away.

The big ship is more than 20 zhang long, with no sails and no poles, just drifting with the tide. The boat was full of monks dressed in big red robes, dozens of people, all clasped their hands together and chanting Buddhist songs. The rolling Buddha sings like Huang Zhong Da Lu, solemn and solemn. And at the bow of the ship stood an old monk with white eyebrows, this monk was wearing a golden robe, and his face was full of Buddha light, as if the Buddha was sacred. Both sides of the canal were crowded with cheers, and many people fell to their knees and paid their respects.

Chu Linglong asked curiously, "What are these monks doing?"

"This is a monk from Daxiangguo Temple. Lu Xuan pointed to the white-eyed old monk on the bow of the ship and said: "That is the host of the Great Xiangguo Temple, and he is also the master of the national master of the dynasty." It is said that this master came to the capital alone thirty years ago, and only single-handedly made fortunes around, so that he could build the Great Xiangguo Temple within ten years. In the following 20 years, he preached Buddhism and gave alms, saving more than 100,000 people from the dead. Now that the Chen Dynasty has descended from the Son of Heaven to respect Buddhism, it can be said that it is the credit of Master Yue. ”

"And everyone in the capital said that Master Liyue was already like this when he first arrived thirty years ago, and everyone said that he was an immortal living bodhisattva. ”

Chu Linglong nodded and praised: "If this is the case, then this Moon Master must be a Buddhist predecessor who has traveled the world." ”

Lu Xuanshen nodded approvingly.

In today's world, the righteous path is prosperous, full of flowers, and although there are hundreds of schools of thought contending in the cultivation world, they are generally led by Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. The methods of the three schools of cultivation and the laws of the sects are all different. Just like Lingyun Sect is a Taoist lineage, focusing on the practice of birth, seeing simplicity, less selfishness, communicating the vitality of heaven and earth, swallowing the fog, turning clouds and rain, and being at ease. The disciples of Buddhism pay attention to refining their hearts in the red dust, manifesting the Dharma at will, crossing others and themselves, and even becoming Buddhas in the flesh, so there are many Buddhist disciples who have practiced in mortal dust, and there are countless believers. As for Confucianism, it is emphasized that if you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world, and you will live in academies and temples, and you will cultivate yourself and govern the country and level the world.

Although Lu Xuan didn't have much chance to get acquainted with this Liyue master, he could also guess that this great monk was not just proficient in Buddhism, but must be a Buddhist master with advanced cultivation.

While the two were talking, the big ship came near, and stopped leisurely. I saw that the master of the moon on the bow of the boat folded his hands together, showing a calm smile, and looked compassionate. The noise in all directions quickly died down, and people looked at the ship with reverence on their faces.

"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south. ”

Master Liyue first sang a Buddha horn, the people were even more reverent, and many people knelt down one after another, and on the occasion of lighting the lamp and praying for the blessing of the great teacher, the people's hearts were full of joy. However, when people looked up at the bow of the ship, they saw Master Yue's solemn face, and suddenly showed a hideous smile.

The smile was cold and ruthless, and there was still a hint of compassion for the world.

In the dark, Lu Xuan suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Chu Linglong, but saw that her face had also changed, and a fierce momentum appeared, making her like a sharp blade that was about to come out, and the chill was awe-inspiring.

"This monk is strange, maybe the cause of this disaster tonight should be on this Moon Master. ”
