The next day, the sky was clear, the spring was bright, early in the morning, Meng Changsheng left Jinghu Villa early, took Xiaoling to Jinshan Temple, and it had been several days since he came back from Chen County to Hangzhou, and now Wu Meiniang's matter is also over, and Meng Changsheng does not plan to continue to delay taking Xiaoling to find Fahai to apprentice.

Xiao Ling's identity is special, once it is leaked out, he will definitely not be able to protect it with his current strength, and the enemy he is now facing that threatens him has one more Tianxin Shengzhai, which makes her more and more imminent to a sense of crisis, so he also wants Xiao Ling to quickly apprentice to Fahai, one is to let Xiao Ling follow Fahai to practice so that Xiao Ling can become strong and have the strength to protect himself.

Another one, as the big boss in the White Snake, the ruthless man who suppressed Bai Suzhen, has no doubt about Fahai's strength Dream Changsheng, although he has not yet reached the realm of immortality, but judging from Fahai's shot when he dealt with the old demon of Montenegro last time, this person's strength has reached a terrifying realm, although he has not yet broken through to the realm of immortality, it is estimated that the combat power is infinitely close, and it is only a matter of time before he breaks through to the realm of immortality.

There is such a ruthless person as Xiaoling's master, and he can feel a lot more at ease about Xiaoling's protection Dream Changsheng, and even let him use Xiaoling's line to catch up with Fahai, Fahai values Xiaoling and loves Xiaoling tightly, coupled with Xiaoling's intimacy with his relationship with Mengfu, as long as Fahai becomes Xiaoling's master, it is difficult to become close to each other.

Therefore, letting Xiao Ling apprentice Fahai, whether it is for Xiao Ling, for himself or even Mengfu, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, especially since he has not yet competed with the strength of the immortal realm, if Fahai can reach the immortal realm first, it will be a layer of security for his dream mansion.

"Knock-" "Knock-"

Jinshan Temple is located on a mountain peak on the bank of the Weishui River more than ten miles away in the west of Hangzhou City, Meng Changsheng took Xiaoling out of the city and did not arrive at the foot of Jinshan Temple, he heard the bell from the top of the mountain from a distance, it was big and long, as if ringing in people's hearts.

Out of the city, all the way to the foot of the Jinshan Temple, along the stone ladder mountain road uphill, just arrived at the temple gate at the top of the mountain, there is a young monk wearing a gray monk's robe waiting in the same place, see Meng Changsheng and Xiao Ling folded their hands and performed a Buddha salute and then took the two into the temple gate, as if they had long known that they were coming.

Meng Changsheng is not surprised, with Fahai's strength, it is not difficult to perceive in advance that he is taking Xiaoling up the mountain, at this moment, when the morning sun is rising, when the monks in the Zhengjin Mountain Temple are taking morning classes, except for some monks who do chores or do other things, most of them are chanting Buddha scriptures.

So after Meng Changsheng and Xiao Ling walked into the temple, their ears were always the sound of chanting Buddha, and they followed behind the young monk who led the way, Meng Changsheng kept looking at the situation of other monks in Jinshan Temple, but what surprised him was that he found that most of the monks in the entire Jinshan Temple were ordinary people, except for a few powerful breaths, but they were all equivalent to martial arts masters in the rivers and lakes.

Could it be that Fahai hid his strength, and he didn't teach these monks of Jinshan Temple how to practice.

"Amitabha, Dream Child, Little Spirit Donor. Half an hour later, under the leadership of the young monk, Meng Changsheng and Xiaoling saw Fahai, but it was not in Jinshan Temple, but on a mountain peak behind Jinshan Temple, there was a pavilion on the peak, Fahai was sitting in the pavilion, saw the arrival of Meng Changsheng and Xiaoling, and folded his hands and said: "Fahai Zen Master." ”

Meng Changsheng also learned Fahai's gesture and bowed, and Xiao Ling also called Fahai a master, but then he shrank his body slightly behind Meng Changsheng, and grabbed Meng Changsheng's sleeve tightly, as if he was a little afraid of life, but looked at Fahai alive.

"Let's go, the Zen master is not a bad person, let's go. Seeing this, Meng Changsheng gently rubbed Xiao Ling's little head, and then walked over with Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling didn't have any resistance when he heard this, although he was a little raw about Fahai, but it was only because she was relatively unfamiliar with Fahai.

The young monk who led the way had already left, and Meng Changsheng walked into the pavilion with Xiao Ling and sat down at the stone table.

"I don't know if Xiao Ling worships Zen Master as a teacher this time, but what else do you need to prepare?" Sitting down, Meng Changsheng didn't have the heart to make any detours, and directly said to Fahai.

"There are not too many false rites under the poor monks, if the small spirit donor is willing to worship the poor monk as a teacher, only one bow to the teacher is allowed. ”

Fahai smiled slightly, before Meng Changsheng Wenyan could speak, Xiao Ling next to him had already stood up from the stone bench and walked directly in front of Fahai, kneeling respectfully in front of Fahai with his small body, and then kowtowed three respectfully on his forehead: "Xiao Ling to meet the master?"

Although Xiao Ling is a ginseng essence, he often studies the subset of scriptures and history after following Meng Changsheng to read and write, so he also has a lot of understanding of some secular etiquette with the world, and knows that the basic etiquette of the apprenticeship ceremony is one bow and three knocks, so there is no need for Meng Changsheng to remind, Xiao Ling took the initiative to give Fahai an apprenticeship.

Meng Changsheng was stunned for a moment when he saw Xiao Ling's actions, and then a smile appeared on his face, the little girl was sensible, which made his heart warm.

"Yes, yes, yes! From now on, you will be a disciple of the poor monk. Fahai said hello three times in a row, and the joy was beyond words, and he happily pulled Xiao Ling up, looked Xiao Ling up and down, and felt that the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

In fact, Fahai himself can't say what the specific reason makes him so fond of Xiao Ling, although he saw Xiao Ling's identity when he first saw Xiao Ling, but he didn't have any greed, but only felt that Xiao Ling looked pleasing to the eye, and then observed Xiao Ling more and more, saw Xiao Ling's outstanding qualifications, and started to accept apprentices, and then saw that his heart was pure, his heart was like a child, and he slowly liked it.

Until this moment, Xiao Ling worshiped himself as a teacher, so that Fahai couldn't help but be a little out of shape with joy.

Meng Changsheng saw that Fahai loved Xiao Ling so much, and he was also relieved in his heart, and secretly happy.

"Xiaoling, this girl is smart and sensible, but sometimes she is a little naughty and playful, and in the future, it will be troublesome for the Zen master to bother to teach, if there is anything, the Zen master can also send someone to Jinghu Villa at any time to inform Meng. ”

Meng Changsheng said politely to Fahai again, and Fahai also smiled and nodded.

The matter of apprenticeship was settled, whether it was Fahai or Meng Changsheng, their hearts were satisfied and happy, naturally, and the subsequent conversation was also more harmonious, from the current trend of the world to the cultivation, the two talked a lot, until ten o'clock at noon.

"I don't know what the Zen master thinks of the Daomen and Tianxin Shengzhai today? The Zen master is a person in the Buddhist sect, and the Buddhism and the Daomen and the Tianxin Shengzhai have close intersections, and he is the head of the righteous path, I don't know what is the relationship between the master and the Buddhism and the Daomen and the Tianxin Shengzhai?"

When he was about to leave, Meng Changsheng asked Fahai, although he felt that Fahai should be the kind of person who walked independently like him, although he was a member of Buddhism, he should not have much to do with other monks in Buddhism, but he felt that this matter still needed to be asked clearly.
