Chapter 2 Difficult to Cross
Like the usual countless rìzi, the melodious morning bell rang again, echoing between the Sumeru Mountains and echoing in the misty mountain wind. It has passed through countless years of light, and it will continue to reverberate in the future rì reverberate.
Standing in the early morning light, the ghost stood with his hands in his hands and listened attentively.
He closed his eyes slightly, as if the bell was reverberating melodiously, to savor it. At this moment, the ghost is powerful, somehow, there is actually no change in his appearance, but it seems that there is a feeling that he has changed personally, from his bearing, compared with the past, it seems to be a little more calm, and a little less angry.
Perhaps, it was really those Dharma circles that worked?
This question is this question among the monks of Tianyin Temple, and many people have this question in their hearts after the ghost wakes up.
After Ghost Li woke up again, Master Puhong and the others took a closer look at him, and there were no other major problems around him, and even the slight shock after receiving a heavy blow did not seem to exist on Ghost Li. Master Puhong was overjoyed, and just in case, he still left Ghost Li to live in Tianyin Temple a few more rì, and Ghost Li did not refrain much, so he stayed in Tianyin Temple.
In the past few years, the ghost Li has been more taciturn than usual, and most of the monks of Tianyin Temple have avoided him for a person like him who has angered the heavens and sent down heavenly punishments, only the Venerable Puhong and Fa Xiang and others have never scrupled about anything, and often come to see him. And Ghost Li himself didn't seem to notice the people outside his body, and he didn't leave the house, only when the morning bell and dusk drum rang in the middle of the day, he would go to the small courtyard and listen quietly.
"Knock ......"
The last bell, with a continuous aftersound, echoed and hovered over Tianyin Temple for a long time, and finally disappeared into silence. Ghost Li slowly opened his eyes.
Bathed in the morning breeze of Tianyin Temple, the breath in his body was full and swollen under the quiet appearance, as if the whole person had flown up. The monks of Tianyin Temple will not know, but the ghost himself understands it in his heart.
Between the wordless jade walls, what unexpectedly appeared was the fourth volume of the legendary Demon Sect classic "Book of Heaven", others may not understand, but he is the only person in this world who has practiced the first three volumes of "Book of Heaven", and at a glance he can see that it is the fourth volume that he dreamed of on the way to cultivation.
In the past, there were countless problems that seemed to be indestructible and insurmountable, but at this moment, he had already mastered the key point, and what was in front of him was almost a broad road, and the smooth road was infinite. Even in his heart, he still has this feeling that if this road goes on, he must be very smooth, and perhaps, he can still peek into some realms that he dare not hope for.
It was when he looked at the feelings of the past and the people in front of him that he also had a sense of detachment, as if he had a new realm and looked back at the past.
It's just that for some reason, in his heart, in such a good situation, he still has a faint feeling of loss, but he doesn't know how to describe it. The faint and wrong thought always haunted his heart.
The ghost stood there for a long time, no one knew what he was thinking, and no one came in to disturb him. Until he suddenly turned around, and for the first time in several years, he walked out of this small courtyard.
He didn't look back when he left the courtyard.
He walked slowly along the steps under his feet, and it is said that this path was once created by the monk with great divine powers in order to promote the Dharma. Today, countless people are still walking on the path he made, but a few know that he is gone.
Walking on this road, the layers of stone steps are unpretentious, and when you step on it, the feeling of plainness is transmitted. After the previous few rì that the heaven and the earth changed and the earth shook the mountains, the temples and halls on Mount Meru were damaged in different ways, only this plain step mountain road was not affected in the slightest, and it was still firmly paved on the ground, allowing countless people to walk over its chest.
Perhaps, for the unpredictable gods, this path also carries some special emotions?
Ghost Li didn't know, he didn't want to know, he walked on this road, just silently recalled the past and the old people, in the memory, he slowly walked to the small Tianyin Temple on the top of Mount Meru.
The door was hidden, and it was still as quiet as ever, and the ghost walked over slowly, and behind the door, there was a faint sound of words.
He knocked on the door.
The sound in the door disappeared suddenly, and then someone seemed to be surprised, and said softly, and a moment later, the door opened with a "squeak", and Faxiang appeared behind the door.
Seeing that it was Ghost Li, Fa Xiang smiled, Ghost Li nodded, and said, "Is Master Abbot here?"
Fa Xiang smiled and stepped aside, "Here, please come in!"
Ghost Li walked in, and saw Master Puhong sitting cross-legged on the meditation bed, looking at him with the same smile. Ghost Li walked over to Master Puhong, bowed, and said, "Master Abbot." ”
Master Puhong looked at the figure of Ghost Li coming over, his eyes from top to bottom, and finally at his feet, nodded suddenly, and said, "I didn't expect that in this short period of time, the donor has made great progress, which is really gratifying!"
Ghost Li raised his eyebrows and didn't speak, but Fa Xiang was slightly taken aback, and looked at Ghost Li carefully beside him.
After a moment of silence, the ghost Li bowed his head slightly to Master Puhong and said, "A few times ago, for my sake, I destroyed the wordless jade wall of your temple's holy land, and I was really uneasy in my heart. ”
Venerable Pu Hong shook his head lightly and said indifferently: "It's just a trivial matter, not enough to worry about." ”
The ghost was slightly stunned, and said: "That wordless jade wall is the treasure of your temple, isn't it precious?"
The Venerable Master Puhong said: "The world is turning, and all living beings are gone, so who knows what is behind him√? ”
Ghost Li nodded and said, "Yes." However, when I came to Xia Jinrì, I wanted to say goodbye to the abbot master. ”
Master Puhong didn't have any surprise on his face, as if he had long expected Ghost Li to speak like this, he just nodded and said, "Donor yù go, the old man doesn't dare to stop it." It's just that before the donor left, the old man had a few words and wanted to talk to the donor. ”
The ghost said: "Master, please speak." ”
Puhong said: "During this period of time, the donor has suffered many disasters, but he was finally able to crack them one by one and break through, I see that the donor seems to have an understanding in his heart, I don't know if it?"
The ghost pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Master Wisdom, for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, he does feel it in his heart. Looking back on half a life, there are many sighs. ”
Venerable Puhong's eyes flashed, and he said, "The donor is a man of great wisdom, and since he has seen through it, why don't you see through this worldly feelings and bring them under my Buddhist sect?
The ghost was silent, stood up for a long time, saluted Master Puhong, and said lightly: "The master enlightened me, and I am very grateful. It's just that I have some understanding in my heart, but I don't see through the world. For me, worldly feelings are exactly what I can't give up. ”
The Venerable Master Puhong shook his head and said, "The Buddha said: sè is emptiness! Everything in the world is like this, grievances, hatreds, beauties and enemies, all of them are just the word 'sè', which traps people's minds and disturbs people's tranquility, so why should the donor be too persistent?"
The ghost looked up to the sky and breathed, laughed, turned to leave, and said loudly: "Master, it's wrong. sè is emptiness, and emptiness is also sè. You want me to see through the world, but I don't know how can I see through the world? I am between heaven and earth, and grievances and hatreds are exactly the circumstances of my life. You want me to see through it quietly, but how do you know that after seeing through it, is it still me?"
The voice gradually deepened, and finally he stopped hearing it, and the man had already left the meditation room.
The Fa Xiang was silent for a long time, and then said to Master Puhong: "Master, you have been enlightened by him several times, but it's a pity that ......"
Master Puhong said lightly: "He has realized the cultivation of the Dao Method, and in the future, he is only afraid that he will be the number one person in the world." But such a character can't see through his own demons, and all kinds of things after rì are based on his own creation. ”
The Dharma Xiang bowed his head, recited the Buddha together, and finally stopped speaking.
Ghost Li left the Little Tianyin Temple, and when he walked out of the temple gate, he suddenly stopped again, paused, but turned to the right, didn't take a few steps, and sure enough, he saw a large stone more than half a person high falling to the ground.
He walked up to this big stone and looked at it carefully, only to see that the stone was stained up and down, but there was not a word, and there was no trace of artificial carving, so he didn't know what the mystery of this stone was.
Ghost Li frowned, pondered for a moment, and suddenly stared, but was attracted by the first place on the boulder.
This boulder is mottled all around, obviously in countless years, I don't know how many years of wind and frost and sword, scarred, but in that place, it is vaguely seen that it is a pattern shape. It's just that the years are so old that it's hard to make out the numbers.
Ghost Li stretched out his hand, gently swept away the dust on the stone, and looked at it carefully, and after a long time, he recognized that this was originally a shell shape, but after a long time, it had turned into stone and merged with the big stone. And Ghost Li then looked closely at the boulder, and found nothing else strange.
His gaze returned to the shell again, could it be that what the Venerable Master Puhong wanted him to see, that is, this ordinary shell could not be successful, what was the mystery in this?
He recalled in his heart what the Venerable Master Puhong had said, and his eyes slowly lit up as he looked at the shell. The mountain range of Mount Meru is towering, within thousands of miles of distance, and there is no sea water and deep ocean, but this stone is clearly the thing on Mount Meru. Thousands of years ago, this place may have been a vast ocean, but it is unknown.
A human being, compared to the operation of heaven and earth and the vicissitudes of the world, is like a drop in the ocean, Sumeru mustard seeds.
It's just that he was silent, turned around and saluted the quiet little temple, and when he turned his head, he still had an indifferent look on his face.
At the wave of his robe, a faint white light flashed, and his figure turned into light, flew away, and gradually disappeared into the sky.
See through!
Who can see through it?
The vicissitudes of the world, but how can it compare to the moment of my heart, the glimmer of light.
Qingyun Mountain, Big Bamboo Peak.
The battle of Qingyun has passed for a while, and after that, Dao Xuan Zhenren has been staring at the people of Dazhu Peak for a while because of the matter of the Zhuxian Ancient Sword, but recently it seems that because the disciples of Dazhu Peak are very honest, the head of the sect has also urged less. In the hearts of the disciples of Dazhu Peak, although the head Dao Xuan Zhenren had a serious stake this time, his actions were really a little too much.
But anyway, after all, it has not been disturbed for a long time this time, and Dazhufeng has gradually returned to his calmness. Wu Dayi and He Dazhi's injuries have gradually improved, and after Su Ru's inspection, they are almost better now. The two of them can walk on the ground, but they can't do heavy work yet.
Therefore, according to the usual practice, while cleaning everyone's room, the task of cleaning the room of the junior brother who had already run away in the secluded corner also continued. At this time, Song Daren and Du Bishu walked towards the room again.
The two of them talked and laughed, and walked into the courtyard as they had done countless times in the past.
But at this moment, suddenly, a gray shadow flashed in the small courtyard that should have been silent.
The gray shadow was extremely fast, but Song Daren and Du Bishu saw it almost at the same time, and under the vibration of the two, they immediately put down their hands to clean things and rushed forward. It's just that the gray shadow disappeared in a blink of an eye, and the two searched all over the courtyard, even on the roof, but still found no clues.
Standing in the courtyard, Song Daren and Du Bishu looked at each other, Song Daren frowned and said, "Could it be that we are wrong?"
Du Bishu tilted his head and thought about it, and was just as he was speaking, when he was suddenly startled, and whispered: "Senior brother, look over there." With that, he pointed his hand behind Song Daren.
Song Daren hurriedly turned around and looked, only to see that following the direction of Du Bishu's finger, the door was closed in the bedroom room of the junior brother, but on the window next to the door, a small crack opened at some point. In the past, it was uninhabited, and the windows were naturally tightly closed.
Song Daren and Du Bishu glanced at each other, and they both saw the suspicion in each other's eyes. Song Daren froze and said in a low voice, "Let's go in and have a look." ”
Du Bishu somehow became a little nervous, and while nodding, he couldn't help but lower his voice and said to Song Daren: "Senior brother, is it likely to be...... It will be the little junior brother, he ......"
The corners of Song Daren's eyes jumped, obviously what he was thinking in his heart was similar to Du Bishu, but even he seemed to be scared of this idea, perhaps, when he really saw the little junior brother who was no longer a stranger now, he didn't know how to face it, right?
hand, when it touched the wooden door, Song Daren and Du Bishu looked at each other again, and then, as if firming up their minds, Song Daren gritted his teeth, shouted, and said loudly: "Who is it?"
Almost at the same time as the door opened, a gray shadow flashed in the room, as if alarmed, jumped from the table in the room to the bed, and turned around at the same time, two eyes dripping, at the two people standing at the door stunned, "squeak" squeak.
"Ash!"
Song Daren and Du Bishu called out at the same time.
"Goo. ”
Xiao Ash swallowed the fruit in his mouth, picked up a mountain fruit beside him, and took half of it in one bite, eating happily. On the Dazhufeng Meditation Hall, at this moment, all the fruit cores that are gnawed by small ashes are thrown all over the ground, and they are thrown everywhere, which is quite funny compared with the solemn appearance of the past.
At this moment, all the people on the Great Bamboo Peak gathered here, and even Tian Buyi, who had always had a bad temper, only frowned when he saw this scene, but he didn't get angry, his face was heavy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
In the past ten years, everyone knows that Xiao Ash has always been with that person and has never been separated, but at the moment Xiao Ash is here, but what about that person?
When Rì was in front of the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion of Tongtian Peak in Qingyun Mountain, Song Daren and the others saw the ghost with their own eyes, and also saw the scene where the former little junior brother was severely injured by the Zhuxian Ancient Sword, and then countless people rounded up and chased him, although since then, there has been no news of him, and I have faintly heard that he has been rescued by the same party.
But why is Ash here?
Ash has appeared, and where is that person?
The same question lingers in everyone's hearts and makes people's hearts heavy. In the Silent Hall, only Ash was eating fruit unscrupulously, but in addition, there was another one who was extremely happy, completely different from the people around him!
Rheum.
This big dog, so excited at the moment, ignored the face of his master, "Wangwang", barked non-stop, and kept turning around the table where Little Gray was lying, and a bright big yellow tail wagged around, extremely happy. From time to time, he jumped up with his two front feet and leaned on the table, sniffing around on Ash, and occasionally sticking out his tongue and licking Ash a few times.
Little Ash cracked his mouth and smiled, scratched his head, grabbed an apple in his hand, shook it in front of Rhubarb, and then threw it outside the Silent Hall. Rhubarb "Wang" screamed, immediately jumped up, galloped on all fours, rushed out of the Shoujing Hall, everyone was surprised for a while, all looked out, only to see that Rhubarb actually rushed to the apple before it landed, held it in mid-air, and at the same time immediately ran back, generally lying on the table, the dog's teeth loosened, the apple fell on the table, rolled a few times.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and Tian Buyi snorted even more.
Du Xiaogray "squeaked" and laughed non-stop, obviously meeting an old dog friend, in a good mood, the monkey tail curled, jumped off the table, but landed on Rhubarb's broad back, reached out and hugged Rhubarb's body.
Rhubarb barked non-stop, ran out with his head up, and didn't know where a monkey and a dog were going to play in the wild.
Song Daren glanced at Tian Buyi and Su Ru, stood up, and just wanted to go out to chase the two beasts back, but only heard Tian Buyi say coldly: "Let them go! That monkey has lived on this mountain for many years, and since he has come, he will not leave." ”
Song Daren answered and sat down slowly.
Tian Buyi was silent for a moment and said, "Except for this monkey, haven't you and the sixth child seen any other figures?"
Song Daren and Du Bishu shook their heads at the same time and said, "No." ”
Tian Buyi's face was ugly, and he suddenly waved his hand and said, "Okay, you guys go out!"
Song Daren and the others looked at each other, but the master's life was like a mountain, and he didn't dare to disobey after all, so he had to slowly retreat, and when he went out, He Dazhi was careful and asked Su Ru: "Master, this place is the core, do you want the disciples to clean it?"
Before Su Ru could speak, Tian Buyi had already said slightly angrily: "Ming rì again, did you ask you to go out and hear it?"
He Dazhi was silent, swooped out, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Su Ru glanced at Tian Buyi and said, "It's okay, what are you doing with them?"
Tian Buyi was full of thoughts on his face, pacing back and forth, and suddenly raised his head and said to Su Ru: "You said the old seven...... Could that person be nearby?"
Su Ru pondered for a moment and said lightly: "He has always been the most emotional, if he has the heart to see you, it is also reasonable." It's just that with his identity, most of them can't show up. ”
Tian Buyi's face changed, and his fat face was uncertain, indescribably weird.
Su Ru glanced at him, sighed, and said, "I know what you're worried about, when you are outside the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion, although he was injured by the Zhuxian Ancient Sword, he is not dead after all, and the rumors don't say that there are also comrades who rescued him? And after he escaped with serious injuries, the monkey was wandered between the mountains and wilderness of Qingyun Mountain, and it was not surprising that he ran to us when he could not find his master. ”
Tian Buyi frowned, and suddenly muttered in his mouth, as if he was scolding.
Su Ru didn't hear clearly, and asked, "What did you say?"
Tian Buyi didn't answer, snorted, frowned, and walked to the back hall with his hands in his hands. Su Ru looked at his back and shrugged her shoulders, quite helpless.
Just as she turned her head, Tian Buyi suddenly shouted in a low voice, Su Ru was taken aback, and quickly turned her head to look, and couldn't help but sigh.
I saw that Tian Buyi seemed to be careless, walking without looking at the ground, but accidentally stepped on a fruit core and slipped a little. It's just that Tian Buyi is not a mortal after all, what kind of cultivation he has, he has stabilized his body in just one moment, Rao is like this, Su Ru has already laughed out loud.
In front of his wife, Tian Buyi was embarrassed, his face was even darker, and he scolded hatefully: "Dead monkey, when will you peel your skin, watch you eat it again!"
After speaking, he entered the back hall without looking back, leaving only the quiet hall full of fruit cores, Su Ru stood with a smile.
