Chapter 72: The Legend of the White Snake
At this time, the face of the master of the ten directions, who seemed to have thrown off the big stone in his heart, appeared on his face as peaceful and bright as sunshine, which made people look at it at a glance and couldn't help but feel happy in their hearts.

Master Shifang smiled and said: "Master Zhou, the little monk is 'shining brightly, like the moon in the water, like the sun rising, white hao between the eyebrows, shining in the ten directions', even if it is after many years, how can the little monk go against his own nature, otherwise, why would the little monk sweep the land here for thirty years." If the little monk is not mistaken, Fahai Zen Master should have died in the hands of the donor, otherwise, you would not have appeared here, and when there were living people in front of this Leifeng Pagoda, Fahai Zen Master would not have appeared until now. ”
"That's true", although Zhou Yan had the idea of being able to do less than one thing in his heart, but with his personality, when the Master of the Ten Directions asked himself, how could he deceive people, so he naturally admitted it. However, the master of the ten directions is indeed the master of the ten directions, and from this subtle matter, he can see through the essence at a glance, and Zhou Yan has to accept it.
"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south, and the abbot presided over it anyway. Well, what is suppressed in this Leifeng Pagoda is indeed the monster caught by Fahai Zen Master in the past, since Fahai Zen Master has returned to the Western Elysium, and when he sees my Buddha coming, then there is no reason for the little monk to wait here, Zhou Shizhu, please do it. Now, Fahai Zen Master has gone, Jinshan Temple has been leaderless, Jinshan Temple is the home of the little monk, the little monk must not be able to make the family chaotic, the little monk is also time to leave this Leifeng Pagoda, return to the Jinshan Temple", Master Shifang said calmly.
"What you want, so you can't stop it, Shifang, between you and me, naturally there is no need to say much, this Leifeng Pagoda from today, I only hope that it can become a real pagoda, not a prison for living beings," Zhou Yan said.
"Since that's the case, this is what the little monk wants to say, but on the top floor of the tower in this Leifeng Tower, there is a Buddhist magic weapon belonging to Fahai Zen Master Zhao Demon Jian, and it is precisely because of the existence of this Zhao Demon Jian that this Leifeng Pagoda has become a lock demon tower, and please be careful about it. At this point, it is inconvenient for the little monk to participate in this matter, and he will take his leave", said Master Shifang.
After speaking, the master of the ten directions called a Buddha in his mouth, left the sunset mountain, every step under his feet, a small golden lotus will be born on the soles of his feet, which is the magic martial arts of Buddhism "step by step lotus".
After Master Shifang left, Zhong Ling, who was originally speechless, suddenly said: "Brother Zhou, I don't like that monk, the aura on his body makes me have an instinctive rejection, it seems like the two of us are born wrong, I don't want to see him again." ”
It turns out that this is the case, originally Zhou Yan was a little strange, how could Zhong Ling's lively personality not say a word in front of the master of the ten directions, it seems that Zhong Ling's lonely physique and the way of Buddhism practiced by the master of the ten directions are somewhat conflicting, otherwise, with her personality, she will not have such a feeling, and she will not easily say what she hates a person.
"It's okay, Sister Ling'er, since you don't want to see him again, then let's not see him, wouldn't it", looking at Zhong Ling's slightly wrinkled forehead, Zhou Yan hurriedly comforted. Although, Zhou Yan is not like an ordinary Buddhist monk for the master of the Ten Directions, but after all, he is a demon, and he is a person in Buddhism, even if he is appreciating him, the two are not people all the way, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, after today, if there is no accident, naturally they will not meet again.
After that, Zhou Yan took Zhong Ling's hand and strode to the door of Leifeng Tower.
Looking at the invisible and colorless Buddha light on the surface of the entire Leifeng Pagoda, Zhou Yan sighed lightly, and a faint golden flame appeared on his body, and the golden flame spread along Zhou Yan's hand to Zhong Ling's body, turning into a flame gauze and draped on Zhong Ling's body.
Then, Zhou Yan took Zhong Ling's hand and pushed open the gate of Leifeng Pagoda, the Buddha light that bloomed on it, after encountering Zhou Yan's golden flame, was like snow under the sun, quietly melting, and it had no impact on Zhou Yan and Zhong Ling.
Leifeng Tower, from the outside, its structure is divided into Tasha, Tiangong, five floors, four floors, three floors, two floors, dark layers, bottom layer, two floors of the base, the bottom of the base, but after entering you will find that in fact, the Leifeng Tower is only composed of three parts: the base, the tower body and the tower sha, and the so-called tower body is an empty space as a whole.
The walls inside the tower are full of reliefs that preach the teachings of Buddhism in the Western Heavens, and there are also sculptures of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Arhats, etc. in the Western Heaven Elysium.
In the center of the tower body of this Leifeng Pagoda, there is an ordinary futon, on which sits a woman in white who is reciting the Heart Sutra of Buddhism, dignified and elegant.
I saw her, her appearance was handsome, beautiful and elegant, dressed in golden white clothes and satin, beautiful face, bright eyes, skin like clotted fat, smooth and crispy. Pure and lovely, clear and beautiful out of the dust, beautiful as a fairy, out of the water hibiscus, the head of the moth eyebrows, beautiful as a flower, handsome and abnormal, between the eyes there is a pretty, beautiful, soft, more and more out of the peerless beauty, than the flower of the country and the city.
Her face is as bright as jade, her eyes are cut water, and her smile is full, not only gorgeous and colorful, but also has an indescribable charm and cuteness, and sometimes shows a gentle and beautiful. When she is shy, her face is flushed and glowing, looking forward to her life, and she is happy, like a flower blooming, delicate and infinite, like a celestial person. The pretty rhyme in her demeanor is really a rare extremely beautiful woman in heaven and earth, even in the eyes of the well-informed Zhou Yan, there are only a few people who can compare to this woman in white.
After seeing this woman in white, a bright smile appeared on Zhou Yan's face, sure enough, it was her, it seemed that the breath she had perceived before was not wrong, she still did not break away from the changes of history, and was still imprisoned in this Leifeng Pagoda by Zen Master Fahai, but, looking at her under such a pure breath, it seems that she has not met the person who misunderstood her life, but it is okay to be like this, that kind of person is not seen.
In the past, when he was still Zhou Yan in his previous life, the mythical story that was popular, sung for I don't know how many years, and adapted for I don't know how many times, has now become a reality in front of my eyes, although the story has resonated with many people and has been admired by countless people, but in Zhou Yan's heart, tragedy is always a tragedy, even if countless colors are added, it is also a tragic story.
In the story of the White Snake in the previous life, in fact, in Zhou Yan's eyes, it can be said that no one is a winner, whether it is Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen, or even Fahai, they can be regarded as a loser.
Xu Xian, such a man who has high hopes for Bai Suzhen, is actually timid and cowardly by nature, from the beginning of his life has been constantly pushed forward by others, his marriage to Bai Suzhen can be said to have been completed under the manipulation of Bai Suzhen, does he really love Bai Suzhen? In fact, it is just a man's yearning for beauty, not love, although he married Bai Suzhen, but he didn't believe in his wife at all, but listened to Fahai's advice again and again to deal with his wife, and even in the end Bai Suzhen was suppressed by Fahai under the Leifeng Tower, he succumbed to the power, he converted to Buddhism, and betrayed "love".
Bai Suzhen, such a white snake who has practiced for thousands of years, married Xu Xian just to repay his kindness, a marriage that is just to repay his kindness, how can it be true love. It's not true love, how can she get the real result, even if she has been treating Xu Xian with sincerity and paying all her attention to Xu Xian, but it can't change the facts, in the end, Xu Xian still gave up on her, and she was suppressed by Fahai under the Leifeng Tower.
As for Fahai, as a Buddhist monk, it can be said that it is his obligation to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and it is also his belief in walking in the world, but he is going farther and farther on this road, and he has undecided emotions and six desires, and finally deviated from the right track and went astray on the road to dealing with Bai Suzhen.
Xu Xian lost, he lost to someone who was really good to him.
Bai Suzhen also lost, she tasted the taste of love, but in the end she lost her heart and forgot her identity.
As for Fahai, he is not a winner, he can say that he lost even more, the green and white two snakes, the water flooded Jinshan Temple, countless innocent temple monks died in it, and countless people were affected by this, so that there were heavy casualties.
In this life, since I came here and met her, I have to change this matter and change the tragedy in my eyes. Of course, as a man, what Zhou Yan wants to save most is naturally this infatuated thousand-year-old white snake Bai Suzhen.
Once in a thousand years...... No matter who Bai Suzhen will be waiting for in the future, who will it be, whether it is Xu Xian or not, but since she has come here now, the person she is waiting for can only be herself. Whether it is said that he is domineering or willful, Bai Suzhen's tragedy, Zhou Yan will not let it repeat itself in this world.
Fahai had already died in his own hands, and although Xu Xian had not seen it himself, he did not know if there was a medicine boy named Xu Xian in a certain pharmacy in Hangzhou. However, it doesn't matter anymore, because he already has her in front of him, Bai Suzhen, who was in white and was suppressed in Leifeng Pagoda by Fahai before.
Looking at Bai Suzhen in front of him, who was still silently chanting this Heart Sutra, I don't know if it was because of the environment here, or the feeling that Bai Suzhen brought to people, Zhou Yan felt as if the atmosphere around him had become peaceful, Zhou Yan couldn't bear to disturb Bai Suzhen, for fear that he would destroy this picturesque feeling as soon as he opened his mouth.
However, the beautiful situation is always short-lived, just after Zhou Yan and Zhong Ling stepped into the Leifeng Pagoda, Bai Suzhen glanced at the two of them, put away the scriptures in her hand, slowly stood up, and walked slowly towards Zhou Yan and the others, but just when Bai Suzhen was about to take the fifth step, a golden Buddha light barrier appeared in front of her, isolating Bai Suzhen within five steps, so that the range of her activities was only so large.
"Excuse me...... Who are the two of you? Why are you in this Leifeng Pagoda, you two are friends of Monk Nafahai?", the ethereal and pure, soft and beautiful voice came out of Bai Suzhen's mouth, just like the feeling she herself gave people.
"Fahai...... He doesn't deserve to be my friend, girl, you're too worried", although Zhou Yan clearly knew the name of Bai Suzhen in front of him, but Zhou Yan still wanted to hear her say it in person, so he pretended not to know, and judging from the situation when they met for the first time, it was normal for Zhou Yan not to know Bai Suzhen's name.
