Chapter 145: Old Mother Lishan
Along the way, Ren Qinglian is trying to open up the two acupuncture points of Hualongchi and Dengxiantai, but he can't do it and can't implement it smoothly.
Now that he saw this cloud collapse and Qi Feng Xiaju, he couldn't help but lift the Nine Shadows Xuan Pupil and look at the family.
After the Nine Shadows Mysterious Pupil broke through again, he could see through all kinds of ghosts and magic at a glance.
Soon I found that the sky above the courtyard, the clouds were shrouded, and the clouds were covered, and I knew that it must have been the calamity of the Four Sages to test the Zen heart, so I immediately turned around and smiled: "Master, it's not early, there is a village courtyard in front, just go to spend the night!"
The monkey raised his eyes when he heard this, and soon saw the Qingyun Rui Haze floating in the sky above the village, and saw Ren Qinglian's face was different, knowing that there was another mystery, and then smiled: "Yes, yes, it is really a good family." ”
Hearing this, Zhu Gangguan led the horse and walked forward a few steps, climbed high and looked into the distance, and soon saw the family vaguely, looked at Ren Qinglian with some complexity and said: "Layman, your ability is a thousand miles a day, and you actually saw that family one step ahead of Brother Monkey." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Na Sha Wujing had already stepped forward with his luggage and said with a smile: "Ren Jushi is hiding this deeply!"
Xuanzang pressed the reins and said: "All images are born in the heart, the Buddha's heart sees the Buddha, and the devil's heart sees the devil...... Okay, it's not early, let's go over and have a look!"
After speaking, he got off his horse, walked along the mountain path, passed a gatehouse, and came to the weeping lotus elephant trunk, in front of the village with carved beams.
The monkey walked in the most hurry, and when he saw the iron lock of the Zhumen, he was about to push the door and enter.
Xuanzang hurriedly stopped him, and scolded with a smile: "We are all monks, so we should each avoid some suspicions, and don't trespass!"
After speaking, he set his eyes on Ren Qinglian.
Ren Qinglian was helpless, before the monkey called the door several times to scare the master's family, Xuanzang preached a few times, but there was not much improvement, and he also went to call the master's house a few times, although the attitude is much better, but it is not as popular as Ren Qinglian, over time, this Xuanzang has learned to be obedient, when encountering this kind of thing, the first thing that comes to mind is to let Ren Qinglian deal with it.
But I don't know that money can make ghosts grind, Ren Qinglian will give the head of the household some silver taels every time without a trace, so that the master will greet them as foot monks, and they will naturally be polite and thoughtful.
However, the family in front of him did not need Ren Qinglian to break the fortune and lightly buckle the Zhu door, and after a few sounds, he faintly heard footsteps not far behind the door.
Ren Qinglian condensed, but what she felt was nothingness, and she couldn't help but be shocked in her heart, thinking that the person who came was most likely the widow of Lishan's mother, and secretly wondered about the true origin of the other party's Lishan's mother.
But the monkeys and the others were so happy that they unloaded their burdens and tied their horses, and either reclined under the base of the wall, or sat on the stone drum in front of the door, or leaned against the foundation of the house.
Soon, the courtyard door opened, and a half-aged woman came out of it, saw Ren Qinglian and asked in a coquettish voice: "Who are you, you keep knocking on the door, disturbing people and purity, don't you know how many things are right and wrong in front of the widow's door?!"
Ren Qinglian's face was strange, she raised her eyes and peeked, only to see that this woman was wearing gold and silver, embroidered skirts and shoes,, and her charm was still there. As for wanting to investigate the other party's true body immortal, he found nothing.
Subconsciously looked at the monkey, wanting to know if the other party's fiery eyes could find something, and his own Nine Shadows Xuan Pupil, which was stronger and weaker.
But I don't know that although the pupil technique is broad and profound, it also depends on the object of the cast, even if it is the monkey's fiery eyes, it is impossible to penetrate the illusion of Li Shan's old mother.
Despite this, it did not prevent the monkey from guessing that the widow in front of him was a certain immortal Buddha through the breath on the old woman's body, and he did not leak the heavenly opportunity at the moment, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and looked at the performance of Xuanzang and others with interest.
Ren Qinglian understood, pointed to Xuanzang who came forward and said with a smile: "We are from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, this is Master Xuanzang, and I was ordered to go to the West Heaven to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures!"
Saying that, Xuanzang had already stepped forward, and Heshi smiled: "Old Bodhisattva, don't be afraid, these are the apprentices of poor monks, we are a group of five, passing by Baofang, seeing that it is late, we went to Tanfu and borrowed it for a night." ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" This woman is a bold lord, and she is very receptive to the appearance of the three monkeys, even if Xuanzang doesn't explain, she won't be afraid, and between her words, she is inviting everyone into the hall.
After everyone finished saluting one by one, they sat down to watch tea.
The woman shouted, and then she saw a white-clothed girl with a suspenny face walking out from behind the screen, holding a golden fruit bowl and a white jade tea cup, and stepped forward and began to serve tea to everyone.
Ren Qinglian saw it, but her brows furrowed, she felt a familiar aura on this girl, but she couldn't think of where she had encountered it for a while.
After a closer look, I saw that this girl was only thirteen or fourteen years old, half-falling, and it was difficult to describe Minghui. tried to say a few words, but the girl didn't see her daughter's shyness at all, and her expression was extremely generous, and between the willow eyebrows, a pair of sheared water pupils were shining.
The woman soon found out that Ren Qinglian had some intention of hooking up with her maid, snorted, and told the girl to go down and arrange the fast.
Ren Qinglian smiled bitterly, he really wasn't Lolita, he just wanted to figure out who this girl was, and it would give him a familiar feeling.
The woman also ignored Ren Qinglian and continued to talk with Xuanzang.
"The little woman's maiden name is Jiajia, her husband's husband's surname is Mo, she was unfortunate in her childhood, and her aunt died early...... "Speaking of sadness, the woman couldn't help crying.
It was the first time for Zhu Gangguan to see such a unique woman, and his heart seemed to be crawling around, and when he saw this pitiful appearance, his heart and liver were about to be melted, and he comforted her softly, causing the woman to roll her eyes and secretly laugh non-stop.
Then, the woman mentioned that her family had thousands of assets and thousands of acres of fertile land, and she felt that there was no one to keep her huge family business, and she wanted to recruit Xuanzang's master and apprentice.
Xuanzang originally planned to comfort the woman for a few words, and even thought of doing a ritual for the woman's deceased husband for free, but he didn't expect the woman to change the topic and mention letting their master and apprentice inherit this family business and get involved.
Even if he pushes the deaf and dumb makeup, he is calm and calm, and he does not answer.
Ren Qinglian smiled secretly when she saw it, but she was a little worried about this woman deliberately omitting him, after all, in terms of appearance, although he didn't dare to guarantee that he looked more handsome than Xuanzang, but at least he was more human-like than the three monkey brothers!
Shaking his head, knowing that Li Shan's mother did not arrange a scene for him, he confessed and went outside the house alone to blow the evening breeze.
When Zhu Gang saw it, he pushed Xuanzang and said, "Master, if you are not interested in this lady's words, why don't you give the quota to Ren Jushi!"
Ren Qinglian's footsteps had just stepped out of the threshold, and when she heard the words of the second senior brother, she almost broke her foot, and said: "The second senior brother is kind, Ren has a heart, but fate is such a thing, I can't force it, I wish the second senior brother a victory tonight!"
As he spoke, the man had come to the village.
Although this courtyard is a temporary illusion, but the pattern is majestic, Shoushan Fuhai, gold lacquer jade pillars.
However, Ren Qinglian made an excuse to come out, obviously not to enjoy the beauty of this antique garden. Stepping on Tiangang, his body was like electricity, and he followed the breath left by the girl and walked to the backyard.
It's just that it didn't take long for Ren Qinglian to find that the path of this courtyard was actually arranged according to a kind of maze array, and she was afraid that she would be pitted by several Bodhisattvas of Buddhism, so she didn't dare to go deeper at the moment, so she found a pavilion near the periphery and sat down, planning to wait for the rabbit.
"Qinglian Shangxian is not sitting in the house, why did he run here alone!" Soon, a voice sounded behind Ren Qinglian.
The voice...... Ren Qinglian turned around and saw that she found a girl leaning on the pavilion and smiling.
"Are you Bai Suzhen?" the person who would call him like this seemed to be the only few monsters he had encountered in the Two Realms Mountain, among them was the banshee, and the only one was the white snake.
"Hee-hee. The girl smiled, and as soon as she turned around, she returned to her previous appearance in the Two Realms Mountain.
"Congratulations to the girl for being a famous teacher, in such a short period of time, she has learned a brilliant illusion technique. Ren Qinglian said with a smile.
"Do you know who my master is?" Bai Suzhen listened, looking curious.
Ren Qinglian smiled mysteriously: "Isn't it the Mrs. Mo in the house?"
"It turns out that the immortal doesn't know the identity of the master. Bai Suzhen patted her chest and breathed a long sigh of relief, when she came, the master had already told her that the change technique of their veins was difficult to see through even the legendary fiery eyes!
Ren Qinglian suddenly said: "It's Lishan's mother!"
Bai Suzhen's mouth grew in surprise, and it took a long time to come back to her senses: "The immortal actually saw through the master's transformation technique?!"
Ren Qinglian didn't deny it, but said with a strange face: "If my guess is right, this is the place where several Bodhisattvas of Buddhism used to test Xuanzang's master and apprentice, but Lishan's mother is a master of Xuanzang, and I don't know why she came to help preside over the overall situation?"
Bai Suzhen was shocked again, but thinking that Ren Qinglian could see through the master's change technique, it was naturally not a problem to see through the change technique of those Bodhisattvas, seeing Ren Qinglian's puzzled face, she didn't think much about it, and said with a smile: "Those Bodhisattvas originally had the same friendship with my master, and they often talked about the scriptures and Tao together...... And don't you think the strategies of the bodhisattvas are very interesting, hehe!"
As she spoke, Bai Suzhen couldn't help laughing.
Thinking of the scene in the original book where Zhu Gangguan was teased by several bodhisattvas, Ren Qinglian couldn't help but laugh.
However, Ren Qinglian also has some clues about the identity of Li Shan's mother.
The so-called friendship of the same door naturally does not refer to Buddhism, but should be Xuanmen. During the honeymoon period of the three sects of Xuanmen, the disciples under the sect were all called each other as brothers and sisters according to the order of entry, and from the perspective of the identity changed by the four holy tests of Zen heart, the seniority of Li Shan's old mother was obviously higher than that of Cihang, the three golden immortals of the teaching, and there were only a handful of Xuanmen disciples who met such an identity.
Combined with some speculations that Ren Qinglian saw in her previous life, it is not difficult to think that this old mother of Li Shan is the Holy Mother of Wudang, a disciple of the sect who survived the gods!
In fact, back then, the Holy Mother of Wudang withdrew from the Ten Thousand Immortal Array in advance under the instruction of the Tongtian Sect Master, which could be regarded as retaining an incense for the Interception Sect. For a long time after that, this Wudang Holy Mother was the most influential Xuanmen master in the Southern Ganbu Continent.
The Luo religion founded by Our Lady of Lishan in Lishan combines the essence of Buddhism and Taoism, and has always had great influence among the human race. For example, Zhong Wuyan, the wife of King Qi Xuan, is the disciple of Li Shan's mother, and Bai Suzhen, Fan Lihua, and Liu Jinding, who are extremely famous in history, are also disciples of Li Shan's mother.
