Chapter 469: Farewell Adventure (Part II)
The strange combination of these three people went all the way north, and the trip was not fast. Along the way, Xuanning gradually became familiar with them, and also had some understanding of their details. Although Xuan Ning was very disgusted with some of their behavior, she felt that she couldn't see people now, and she was closer to these two evil monks in terms of mentality.
I am familiar with each other a lot, and it is inevitable that we will talk about the topic of martial arts. Yirong Yikun accidentally discovered that Xuanning actually had a handsome kung fu. Yirong secretly wondered, and took the opportunity to secretly teach a few seven-step lotus mantras.
I didn't expect Xuanning to have a very high understanding, and he could understand it at all. Those few mantras were learned much faster than the speed at which Yirong and Ku learned back then. Yirong and Ku were surprised and surprised, so they discussed privately, and the two of them have been wandering on the rivers and lakes for many years, but they have not been able to find a successor to inherit the mantle of Bodhi Gate. I don't know if I can find it if I go on like this. Since there is a partner with such a high level of understanding by his side, why not take her as a disciple?
When he heard this, he secretly wondered, he couldn't imagine that his junior brother, who had always behaved in a proper manner, would come up with such an idea. The monk accepted a female apprentice, isn't this just a thing that violates common sense? It is simply unparalleled in the world! Although he felt that it was a little inappropriate to do so, he agreed to it when he thought that he was in harmony with his own heart.
In fact, Yirong himself has thought about it repeatedly, and he feels that since the will of heaven is like this, Xuan Ning must be their destined person. Buddhism also says that everything depends on fate. It is also said that all beings are equal. In that case, why can't a woman be a monk's apprentice? Therefore, Yirong also felt that it was in accordance with the rules to do so.
It was rare for the two to reach a consensus and expressed this idea to Xuanning together. Who knew that after Xuanning heard this, he was surprised, but he actually saw this. Because although Xuanning has some meaning of being dissolute and banishing the world, he still does not want to be with the evil sect in his heart.
In this way, the two monks were not happy. Helplessly, Xuanning had a resolute attitude, but he refused to apprentice. The two monks were helpless, and their attitude gradually became softened from the original arrogance. In the end, the two actually asked Xuanning to worship themselves as teachers.
Xuan Ning saw that the two of them were more than a hundred years old together, and it was really pitiful to ask each other so softly. Besides, after getting along all these days, Xuanning is taking care of their lives. Although the two monks are inseparable from Xuanning, Xuanning also thinks that these two old boys who can't take care of themselves are actually quite interesting. So she reluctantly agreed.
The second monk couldn't help but be overjoyed, and even the apprenticeship was exempted, and immediately began to teach the mastery. Xuan Ning originally felt that he should soon return to the mountains and forests, and he was lonely in this life, and it was useless to learn martial arts. Therefore, her attitude has always been light, but as soon as she practiced such profound kung fu, she gradually became attractive.
The second monk was even more happy in his heart. On the one hand, Xuanning has a high level of understanding and is fast-moving. Second, they had met many cult figures in the past. When the men heard that they were going to take in disciples, they all came to me. After a few times, the two of them can understand that these people have bad intentions and are not well-intentioned. But Xuanning is different. Xuanning cooks tea and rice for them every day, but they don't want anything. Teach her martial arts, and she will learn. If you don't teach her, she doesn't care. This is the real good apprentice! The two monks had general thoughts in their hearts.
So the three of them became a master-apprentice relationship. Later, when I came to the Heavenly Wolf Sect, I met the current head Xiao Ting. Xiao Ting didn't know any Bodhi Sect and was very cold to them. coincided with the Empress Dowager Xiao's army to attack the Song Dynasty, and Xiao Ting and the Empress Dowager Xiao were related to each other, so they also found a general and brought all the disciples of the sect.
But Empress Dowager Xiao knew that her brother had a few catties and taels, so she left him behind. Later, Empress Dowager Xiao led a large army to the south and let Xiao Ting besiege Dingzhou. Xiao Ting was anxious to make meritorious contributions, so he thought of the two monks of Yirong and Ku, and thought to himself, these two monks are strong in martial arts, if they can touch the city and assassinate the guards, he can take the opportunity to capture Dingzhou. Even if you miss and get killed, it doesn't matter.
It was precisely because of such an incident that Xuanning later secretly reminded Peng Guangzu, the defender of Dingzhou, that it was self-defeating, so that Dingzhou was lost. And Xiao Ting captured Dingzhou, and his attitude towards the two monks changed a lot, and he was invited as a guest. Xiao Ting was anxious to join the army and show his merits to the Empress Dowager Xiao, so he did not stay in Dingzhou for a long time, and led people to the Jizhou front.
And Xuanning was sighing because of the loss of Dingzhou, and suddenly heard that Chen Ao led the army to break through and was trapped on the mountain. That night, I suddenly heard that Chen Ao was killed by an arrow from the general Xiao Tzu Rin and fell off the cliff. Xuanning was like a thunderbolt, so he immediately sneaked out of the barracks and rushed to the place where Chen Ao had an accident.
She found a Liao army who participated in the battle, asked for the location, and looked for a path down the mountain overnight. It wasn't until noon the next day that Chen Ao was discovered. Xuan Ning was originally very surprised, but when he thought of his terrifying appearance now, his heart became a lot colder. So she thought in her heart that Chen Ao liked the new and hated the old, and flirted with so many women, so her attitude became cold, and then she began to treat Chen Ao.
Chen Ao lay on the wooden bed, listening to Xuanning tell these experiences, sighing. There are many things that he has only now understood. For example, when he was at the helm of the Salt Gang, he didn't understand the murder of Master Zheng who was investigated and checked. There is also the time when I was in Shaolin Temple, and the matter of pure dust and the opponent was entangled.
Xuan Ning just recounted the old things, and never said anything about his own heart. But how well did Chen Ao know her temperament? Chen Ao held Xuan Ning's hand and sighed gloomily.
After being silent for a long time, Chen Ao said, "Ning'er, take off the face towel and let me see you." ”
Xuan Ning trembled, pulled out his hand suddenly, turned around and left. Chen Ao was in a hurry, and climbed up strongly. However, he had just broken his ribs, and how could he exert his strength? Halfway through the crawl, he screamed in pain and fell back on the bed.
When Xuan Ning heard this, he hurriedly turned around, eagerly helped him lie down, and asked, "Are you okay?"
Chen Ao gritted his teeth and struggled to get up again. He endured the pain and tried to slow down his movements so as not to hit a broken bone. After putting in a huge effort, Chen Ao finally stood in front of Xuan Ning with only his left leg.
Xuan Ning said angrily: "What are you doing? Lie down!"
Chen Ao smiled slightly, but under the huge pain, this smile was even more ugly than crying. He said word by word: "Ning'er, let me see you!"
Xuan Ning was stunned and stood dumbfounded. Chen Ao reached out and gently pulled her face towel down. Xuan Ning subconsciously wanted to reach out to cover his face, but Chen Ao grabbed his wrist. Chen Ao stared at the two dark red scars on Xuan Ning's side face, and felt a pain in his heart.
In fact, Xuanning's appearance was originally very delicate, although these two scars were ugly, they did not destroy the contours of his facial features, and they were not as terrifying as Xuanning thought. Chen Ao was not heartbroken because of her appearance, but felt that it was because of herself that Xuanning suffered so much, and his heart became more and more panicked.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Xuan Ning's heart was even more flustered, and he stretched out his hand as if he was putting the face towel back on. Chen Ao still grabbed her hand and said with a smile: "Don't wear a face towel anymore, I want everyone to know that my wife Xuanning is the most beautiful woman!"
Xuan Ning left a line of tears in his eyes and said, "What nonsense ......"
Chen Ao laughed and said, "What? Am I wrong? In my eyes, you are the most beautiful!"
As he spoke, he leaned over and kissed Xuan Ning's cheek, which was covered with scars......
