Chapter Twenty-Six: Making a Wish and Repaying a Wish

The small novice sutra in the Great Banyan Temple was no longer recited, and they came out in the snow with their little bald heads, and saw that the monk who had a very cold temperament in the prime of the day actually walked out of the pagoda for the sake of cultivation for the first time.

Although the monk was still carrying the demon sword, where were his cheeks red, and between his eyebrows, he looked like he had a cold appearance before?

If two people are judged.

One of the young novices stared at the man who had succeeded in tricking the layman out.

Are you really a friend of the layman?

The two of them were right next to the Trevi Fountain.

Yi Xiao smiled and asked, "Are you going to practice in the pagoda all the time?"

The woman with her eyebrows growing softly said, "It won't be long before I leave here." ”

Yi Xiao was stunned.

Yi Xiaoan said calmly: "The Bodhisattva said that I have the bones of the Buddha, and I have the body of the hibiscus given by the master, and the practice of the sword can be a thousand miles a day, and I have practiced the Heart Sutra of the Buddha in the pagoda for a year. ”

His Royal Highness smiled in a low voice, and after careful consideration in his heart, he finally said softly: "It's good." ”

Yi Xiaoan listened to the man's seemingly casual reply, and didn't know how to respond for a while, so he could only hum softly.

It's all in plain sight.

Pretty good.

It's good, indeed.

Yi Xiaoan suddenly raised his head and asked softly, "What about you?"

His Royal Highness was slightly stunned, and chuckled: "I practice on the Holy Island, which is similar to you in the pagoda. ”

Yi Xiaoan bowed his head in silence.

The two men fell silent again.

In fact, she wanted to ask more, not only about today's plans, but also about how he had been doing this year.

She wanted to ask him a lot of things, but she didn't want to ask him about his practice.

Suddenly the words stopped there.

His Royal Highness rubbed his eyebrows, smiled dumbly and said, "I'll go to Lanling City later, the Qingli girl of the Demon Sect is a powerful monster, and it will be much more convenient to have her on the road." ”

Yi Xiaoxin nodded absently.

Yi Xiao sighed, knowing that if she met her again, she would probably find it difficult to go back to the previous time and be able to talk happily without any scruples.

His Royal Highness took out a wine jug from his arms, shook it in front of him, and said with a smile: "Well, the good wine in the Holy Island is specially reserved for you." ”

Yi Xiaoan slowly raised his head, raised his arm slightly, pursed his lips and handed over the sword.

The flask was gently placed on the tip of the Fleur sword by His Highness.

Yi Xiaoan said softly: "I have quit drinking." ”

The tip of the sword tumbled, and the flask naturally fell, split in two by the Fleur Demon Blade, and the wine spread out along the heavy snow, and was condensed into frost as it rolled in mid-air.

"I've been drinking for a long time. Yi Xiao'an smiled, "I got my mind, this pot of wine is for Fu Hui to drink for me." ”

His face was complicated, and he said softly, "Okay." ”

Yi Xiaoan calmly retracted the hibiscus and asked, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

Yi Xiao was stunned.

"If it's gone, then I'll go back to cultivating. ”

She turned calmly.

His Royal Highness breathed slowly and exhaled a turbid breath.

He didn't say anything more.

I can only go on and on with that word.

"Good. ”

His Royal Highness looked at the woman's back.

From the Trevi Fountain to the pagoda, the snow was spread by moonlight all the way, and she did not look back.

Yi Xiao suddenly shouted, "Hey!"

She stopped.

Still haven't looked back.

His Royal Highness, who was covered with heavy snow in the black robe, lowered his eyebrows, withdrew his trembling fingers, smiled to himself, and said calmly: "It's okay, let's go practice." ”

The woman nodded slowly and said softly, "Take care." ”

Yi Xiao smiled: "You ...... too Take care. ”

Say goodbye.

One person enters the stupa.

One person has not left the Great Banyan Temple.

These little novices who stayed outside watched in amazement as the black-robed man turned around and squatted down, squatting alone beside the Trevi Fountain, and the snow fell on him, and he did not move.

These little novices didn't understand why the lay man was willing to see him, but he didn't say a few words after all.

They are still young and may not understand it for a long time.

Sometimes, once you miss it, goodbye really becomes a stranger.

......

......

Yi Xiao squatted beside the wishing pool, suddenly raised his head, and whispered to the snowy night sky: "Monk, I've waited for you for so long, why haven't you come out?"

The sound of footsteps could be heard in the wind and snow.

The young prison adults of the Great Banyan Temple stepped on the wind and snow, shaved off the three thousand troubles, and held the solemn treasure face, holding the Buddha beads all the way around, and reciting the Buddha's words softly.

When he arrived at the wishing fountain, he suddenly smiled, and he didn't care about his face at all, so he squatted beside Yi Xiao with such a big grin.

The little monk of bluestone grinned and said, "What about depression, what about trouble, what about incomprehension?"

Yi Xiao said angrily: "Don't put it aside and add to the blockage, it's annoying." ”

The little monk of Qingshi pursed his lips and said, "You called me here, and now you want me to leave?"

was about to get up, but was pulled down by Yi Xiao, and sat down next to the trevi fountain with his buttocks.

Qingshi sighed, just sat like this, and said softly: "She is a person with great perseverance, and she should also know that if a person who cultivates a sword can't even cut off the entanglement in his heart, how can he cut off others?"

His Royal Highness lowered his eyebrows and said with a slight annoyance: "So you deliberately hid and didn't see it?" Even if you see it, you don't speak, did you teach this set?"

"The conscience of heaven and earth, the poor monk guarantees it with Buddha products!"

"I definitely didn't teach it!"

Qingshi looked up to the sky and said indignantly: "You have to tell me that this girl was a lively character before, and I don't believe it when she was killed, don't say a word after this guy goes out of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and after entering the pagoda, he practices like a madman, and he practices swords, swords, swords." There is nothing else to do every day except sword practice, absolutely nothing. ”

Yi Xiao was slightly stunned.

"What does a person need to go through to become what she is now?" Qingshi retracted his expression and said softly: "Have you ever seen her sword, it is really a very bitter sword." ”

His Royal Highness wanted to speak and stopped, but finally he was silent.

After a long time, Yi Xiao spoke bitterly.

"It is indeed a very bitter sword. ”

Qingshi comforted softly: "Oh, life is unsatisfactory, nine times out of ten, just look away." ”

Yi Xiao asked sullenly, "What if I can't see it?"

Qingshi thought about it, stretched out a finger, and pointed to the wishing pool in front of him, "I can't see it, why don't you make a wish here?" Master said that the wishing pool in the Big Banyan Temple has the blessing of Buddhism's luck, and making a wish has always been a spirit. ”

Yi Xiao looked at the wishing fountain in a daze.

"Qi Liang Nineteen Dao, characters with heads and faces, basically came here to make wishes. Qingshi said with a smile: "Everyone surnamed Xiao in Lanling City has basically not missed a single one. ”

"Those royal families in Lanling City, you are the youngest one. Qingshi smiled: "Your two brothers used to make a wish here. ”

Yi Xiao looked at Qingshi slightly, not knowing why.

The two men looked at each other.

......

......

A group of little bald heads hid in the Buddha hall, poking their heads out, trying to see what their young prison lord and the black-robed man were talking about by the trevi fountain.

Actually talked for longer than the layman?

It's a pity that the wind and snow are a little too big.

I can't see clearly.

I could vaguely see the prison lord sitting by the trevi fountain regardless of his image, and raised his arms slightly at this moment.

The green sleeves are full of energy and roll away the wind and snow.

In an instant, the eyes were wide open-

The wishing fountain clanged, the ice shattered, and all floated up, and along with the broken ice, there were countless copper coins that made a wish.

This is the famous "copper coin wish" in the Great Banyan Temple, the wisher writes his wish on the oil paper, folds it into the center of the traditional copper coin eyebrows, makes a sincere wish, and then throws it into the pool.

When the time comes to repay the vow, it is said that the oil paper in the copper coin will dissipate on its own, and no one has ever fished it out with their own hands, so naturally they don't know whether it is true or not.

And this "copper coin wish" is quite effective, so the Buddhist wish power has gradually become a kind of Buddhist magic means widely accepted by Qi Liang Nineteen Dao.

At this momentβ€”

The little monk of bluestone flicked his fingers slightly, and two strings of copper coins floated from among the countless copper coins, which were held in the palm of his hand, and the palm of his hand emitted the warmth of Buddha light, slowly removing the cold chill on the two copper coins.

Bluestone's other hand pulled out the oiled paper in the copper coin.

Yi Xiao looked at the contents of the two sheets of oiled paper in a daze.

The handwriting on the first piece of oiled paper was clumsy, and at a glance it was clear that it was not written by a scholar, and that the person who wrote it should be a rough martial artist.

"Brother Xiao has no regrets, he is ashamed of his lack of talent, he can't protect the world, and he can protect his relatives after his death......"

The handwriting on the back has been changed and changed.

"May the younger brother of Yu be sixteen years old and go north without wind and waves, and recover from a serious illness, I hereby ask for a signature, make a wish, and hope that the Bodhisattva will be fulfilled. ”

His Royal Highness muttered, "Big brother......"

Yi Xiao seemed to be able to think of the rough man's heavy expression when he wrinkled his eyebrows and wrote.

"The first one is the one your eldest brother asked for for you when you went north. Qingshi said slowly: "You look at the second one." ”

Yi Xiao slowly moved his eyes.

The second sheet of oiled paper is very handwritten and very different from the first.

It was the work of a Confucian scholar.

"Xiao Buyi has two wishes, one wishes for the prosperity of Qi Liang, and the other wishes for the peace ......of the Xiao family."

"On this trip to the north, I only hope that my brother Yu will get out of Luoyang safely, and one day I can return to Lanling, solve the contradictions, and melt the ice and snow. ”

"I hereby ask for a signature, make a wish, and hope that the Bodhisattva will be fulfilled. ”

Qingshi paused, and said softly: "Your other brother stopped in Yangguan Valley when he went north, and he also asked for a sign here. ”

"Both visas are for you. ”

Yi Xiao's complexion changed slightly, and she finally fell silent.

"The imperial family is indeed hiding its face behind the scenes, but behind the compulsion, it is not all hypocrisy. Qingshi said softly: "If they really want you to die, you don't have to make a wish in this wishing pool, no one can see it." ”

Yi Xiao took the two pieces of oiled paper, her face was complicated, and she read it over and over again.

In the end, he rubbed his face and scolded with a smile: "Monk, you don't know about me?"

The voice was a little choked.

Qingshi's expression was complicated, and he waved his hand again, and tens of millions of copper coins fell into the wishing pool again.

......

......

His Highness stood up, exhaled a breath of heat, and waved his hand.

"Gone. ”

As soon as it was gone, the entire Great Banyan Temple could hear it.

The woman meditating in the stupa slowly opened her eyes.

The bald-headed little novice in the main hall looked at each other, and then whispered a prayer to the black-clothed benefactor with a somewhat lonely back.

The figure faded away, without looking back.

Qingshi was still sitting in front of the Trevi Fountain, and Ren Daxue blurred his vision.

There were things he didn't say.

You asked me before, what if I can't think of something?

I'll reply to you and make a wish.

In fact, if you can't think of it, what's the use of making a wish?

I can only stop thinking about it.

The affairs of the family and the country are much more complicated than the love of children and the short path of cultivation.

Fate is born, fate is extinguished, the end of the world, the cape.

I don't want to, I don't want to read it, one knife, two cuts.
