Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The sunlight did not shine in front of the door of the Demon Suppression Palace, and on the wide and fat palm of the monk who was not angry, there was a string of prayer beads lying quietly, attracting Li Qingshan's attention.
There are only eighteen rosaries, which are worn on the wrist, and they seem to be wooden, round and neatly sized, with only one being larger. It itself does not exude any brilliance, and it does not look unusual, just like ordinary prayer beads.
However, Li Qingshan is not worried, as the so-called "real people do not show their faces", the powerful magic weapon is estimated to be the same, this string of prayer beads seems to be often worn by non-angry monks, which must be unusual. The treatment of his own big disciple can't be much worse than that of Duoga!
The expression of the monk who was not angry made Li Qingshan conclude this point, only to see that he glanced at the rosary in his hand with some reluctance, and then said:
"Rebel, stretch out your hand. ”
Li Qingshan stretched out his hand, and without being angry, the monk personally put this string of prayer beads on Li Qingshan's hand.
Li Qingshan secretly wondered, he didn't feel the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power in this way, and he tried to use his divine thoughts to probe into it, but there was nothing special about it, but it must be something else that made the master so precious!
The monk explained: "This string of prayer beads is not a powerful magic weapon in itself, but it was handed over to me by my master himself, which is of great significance. Especially after it is in the hands of the teacher, wear it from time to time, rub it day and night, soaked in the hard work and sweat of the teacher, you must remember to keep it well, and you must not lose it. ”
"This treatment is too different!" Li Qingshan glanced at the magic heart rosary hanging around Duoga's neck again, and he couldn't take off the rosary and slammed it on the smiling fat face of the monk who was not angry: "Thief bald, is this looking down on people? In addition to hard work and sweat, there is also lard and mutton butter! I watched you drink wine and eat meat with this thing!"
After fantasizing so fiercely in his mind, of course it was impossible to really put it into practice, Li Qingshan casually arched his hand and said: "Thank you for the generous gift of the master, the apprentice will leave." The string of prayer beads on my wrist became more and more greasy, and I wanted to take it off immediately.
If you are not angry, the monk simply gave Li Qingshan a string of prayer beads as a souvenir. Li Qingshan didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but he had specially given Duoga a string of priceless demon heart prayer beads earlier, and when he turned his head, he gave him such an ordinary thing. It is inevitable that there is a gap in my heart, and I feel that it is unfair, and I am also a disciple. Aren't you clearly looking down on me?
The non-angry monk didn't seem to notice Li Qingshan's unhappiness. He said with a smile: "Before leaving, you first go to the secular courtyard, get a set of lay disciples' outfits, and put up an order!"
"Yes. Li Qingshan replied lazily.
"When you go outside, don't pretend to be a teacher, if you let the teacher know, I won't spare you!"
"Good. "Li Qingshan is impatient, am I the kind of person who likes foxes and fake tigers?
"Before the inner courtyard disciples go down the mountain, they can inject a Heavenly Dragon Zen chant into their body. It can be used to save lives at critical times, but you are only a lay disciple, and you do not have this qualification. ”
Li Qingshan glared, since you don't have this qualification, why do you bother to say it? But he listened to the monk behind him:
"Therefore, if you encounter any danger, report that my Dharma name has come out, and it will be a bit thin to think about it. If it's useless, crush the largest of the rosaries, and the teacher will come immediately to help you divide it. ”
Li Qingshan's footsteps paused. Suddenly looking back, I saw that the monk was still sitting there with a smile, waving his sleeves and saying, "Go, rebel!"
Not being angry is not just a little thin-faced. On the ground of Qingzhou, Li Qingshan provoked Qingzhou Mu, the Dragon King of Mohai, and the monk who was not angry was also qualified to say it, if it was a second-class person, when he heard his name, he would have to give three points to Li Qingshan.
This string of rosaries is simply a life-saving talisman, Li Qingshan glanced at the string of rosaries on his wrist, his words and deeds seemed stingy, he took a deep breath, turned over, and bowed deeply: "Yes, master, the apprentice will go here." ”
Li Qingshan walked out of the valley, remembered the explanation of the monk who was not angry, and climbed the Big Buddha Mountain again, and came to the front of the Tianlong Monastery, only to see a little novice cleaning the fallen leaves, and stepped forward to ask, "Little master, where is the secular courtyard?"
The little novice pointed to the foot of the mountain: "No, it's all down there, and the main hall is on the other side of the mountain." ”
Li Qingshan has already noticed that at the foot of the Big Buddha Mountain, there is a large number of buildings, row upon row, golden and brilliant, like a palace, almost around the Big Buddha Mountain, like the hem of the Buddha's clothes hanging on the ground, and only these special places such as the Demon Suppression Hall are spaced over.
It turns out that these are all secular courtyard industries, but in terms of area, any courtyard on the Big Buddha Mountain is far from being able to compare.
The secular temple is not only the largest in area, but also the one with the most monks, and it is responsible for many functions, one of which is to receive those pilgrims who come from thousands of miles and provide them with accommodation and food, without so many buildings, it simply cannot be accommodated.
Li Qingshan walked around the temple, looking at it as he walked, and became more and more emotionally touched by the scale of this Tianlong Zen Temple. The famous mountains and ancient temples of the ordinary sense are located in a temple in the shade of the mountains, and the buildings of this Tianlong Zen Temple are all over the whole Buddha Mountain, which is the architectural scale of Qinghe Fucheng, which is difficult to compare.
When I finally came to the main hall of the secular courtyard, the surrounding crowds were gradually thinning, and unlike the hustle and bustle of other places in the secular courtyard, it seemed very quiet here, with ancient cypress and birdsong.
Li Qingshan walked in, and no one stopped him, he heard the sound of human words coming from afar, stepped through the hidden path, and came to the front of the hall, only to see a man and a woman talking softly.
"What gift did Senior Brother Wang bring to Senior Brother Yongxin this time? ”
The female monk asked, she looked like she was forty or fifty years old, and considering the cultivator's many methods of residing her face, her age must not be light, she was still in the foundation building realm, and basically there was no hope of breaking through in this life.
"It's a small gift, it's not worth mentioning. "That Senior Brother Wang looked older, with a face like pine skin, and a long sword diagonally behind him.
The cultivation of the two of them is to build a foundation, and their clothes are dressed like monks' clothes, but they are a little different from the real monk's clothes. They also wear rosaries on their wrists.
Li Qingshan did not hide his breath, and before he could get close, the two turned around.
"Where did this fellow Daoist come from, and what is the matter here?" Seeing that Li Qingshan was magnificent, Senior Brother Wang looked calm, and he was young, and his cultivation had reached the middle stage of foundation building, not only was he slack, but he asked politely.
Li Qingshan strode forward and arched his hand: "I'm here to place an order and be a lay disciple, what are the two Taoist friends doing here?"
"We are the lay disciples of the Tianlong Zen Academy, how old do you dare to ask Daoyou?" Senior Brother Wang asked with some curiosity.
"I have lived for more than 20 years. ”
"Not yet thirty years old! Daoyou can really be called a genius, even if you want to be a disciple of the inner court, it should be no problem, how can you think of becoming a lay disciple?"
Senior Brother Wang was taken aback, he thought that Li Qingshan was just a good person, and his actual age was forty or fifty years old, but he didn't expect him to be so young, only in his twenties and cultivated to the middle stage of foundation building, he can definitely be called a genius, but how could such a genius come to be a lay disciple?
There are a large number of lay disciples in Tianlong Zen Academy, most of them are not qualified to become disciples of the inner courtyard because of their lack of talent and understanding, but they have spent time cultivating as a foundation building monk, so they hang up the identity of a lay disciple, which can be regarded as a good shade under the big tree, even if they can't learn the highest mastery of Tianlong Zen Academy, but the next level of exercises is better than the core disciples of ordinary sects.
There are countless foundation-building monks in the world, but there are very few who can really cultivate to the foundation building realm at the age of twenty or thirty, especially those who do not have the support of the master family, most of them are boiled out by staying up for time.
"The abbot originally wanted me to be a monk, but I refused to agree. They refused to let me go, so I had to be a lay disciple. Li Qingshan said helplessly.
"Abbot?
The female monk exclaimed, and quickly lowered her voice, looking at Li Qingshan with an incredulous face, surprised how he could mention the fearless monk in such a disrespectful tone.
"yes, or who else?"
Li Qingshan said as a matter of course, don't look at Li Qingshan's lack of pressure in the face of the fearless monk, that is because of his own actual cultivation, he has almost fought with any cultivator of the Second Heavenly Tribulation, and he is confident that he can continue to improve, and one day, he can be equal to the fearless monk and others, or even surpass them, and there is no psychological weakness.
But in the eyes of ordinary foundation building monks, the abbot of Tianlong Monastery is a fearless monk, and the monk king who is admired by the Great Xia Dynasty is like a god, and if such a person can be looked at, then it can be worth boasting about.
Not to mention, the fearless monk opened Chrysostom to admit him into the inner courtyard, which was simply a supreme honor. And he actually refused, the reason was what "the fate is not over", what a waste of opportunity, so that the two of them hated to replace him.
Wang Daoyou's heart moved, and he asked, "Daoyou, is Li Qingshan from Ruyi County?"
"yes, you recognize me?"
Li Qingshan stayed in the back mountain for more than a month, but he didn't know that Tianlong Monastery welcomed Xiao'an into the temple with the highest honor, and then the fearless monk personally shaved it, which was already spread throughout Qingzhou.
Xiao An's law name "Yiyi" is even more famous, and he has already had the name of the first disciple of Tianlong Zen Academy, and until now, the aftermath has not subsided. Li Qingshan was in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and he refused the fearless monk in public, and then was punished into the Demon Suppression Tower, so naturally he couldn't hide it from these lay disciples.
"I have admired the great name for a long time, and I have admired the great name for a long time. Senior Brother Wang said repeatedly, and the female monk also said: "In the future, everyone will be brothers in the same sect, so you don't have to be so polite, I will call myself a senior sister." ”
"It's easy to say!" Li Qingshan said a few more words, and was about to enter the main hall, when Senior Brother Wang hurriedly said: "I can't go in yet!"
