"Boom - boom -" What is this sound? This sudden voice pulled Yang Lingfeng back from the illusory dream, and slowly opened his eyes. He was still thinking about the dream just now. He dreamed of his parents. Although he couldn't see anything, they were very beautiful. We live happily together, and there is also Monk Jieren, my master, who just now smiled and asked me how my kung fu learning went, and there are also several girls, including Yu Chunxi and Gao Qian'er. There is Qian Jiayi and Ji Yinru.
"Amitabha~~~~~~" A rich Sanskrit sound interrupted Yang Lingfeng's thoughts, but he was a monk, with a very kind-faced appearance, very much like his master Jieren, Taoist and immortal, but this time His eyebrows are white, his beard is white, and he seems to have lost a lot of weight. Yang Lingfeng immediately trembled, got up and knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and shouted with great joy: "Master."
The monk laughed loudly and asked in a loud voice, "Who is your master?"
Yang Lingfeng heard that the voice did not seem to be that of Jie Ren. He looked up and found that it was an hallucination. He was very embarrassed. He stood up and bowed and said: "I miss my master. If I didn't check for a while, I mistakenly recognized the wrong master. Master, please don't laugh. "
The monk was slightly surprised and said, "Oh, is the little donor also a Buddhist disciple?"
Yang Lingfeng raised his head and replied: "I dare not claim to be a disciple of Buddhism in vain, but I have been raised by my master, Master Jieren, since I was a child, but he is like a father, teaching me all the Dharma, and he has not officially become a disciple, so he is only half a disciple of Buddhism. "
The monk smiled slightly and said: "In this way, the donor can be regarded as having a fate with me. To be able to come to this place must be extraordinary. How good!"
Yang Lingfeng looked around, but he was in a Buddhist hall. Only then did he suddenly remember that he was supposed to be trapped in the Qianzhai torture chamber, so why was he here again? But he had no memory of the reason, so he bowed and said, "May I ask if Master helped me get out of trouble? I'm sure I'm very grateful."
The monk remained motionless and asked: "What does it mean to escape from trouble? Where is the trouble?"
Yang Lingfeng secretly thought that this monk must not be simple, but he was also very boring. He even took the Zen question test when he had nothing to do. He replied: "I don't understand very well, do you want the master to answer?"
The monk turned around and called out a Dharma chant: "Sleep is in the heart, the heart is the devil, the devil is sleep, and the sleep is the Buddha." After saying that, he walked towards the inner hall.
Yang Lingfeng thought about it carefully, and when he was about to ask again, the monk disappeared and he quickly followed him in.
When we entered the inner hall, we found that it was a square where hundreds of monks were practicing boxing, fighting vigorously. When Yang Lingfeng saw this scene, he immediately remembered the days he spent with his master in the past. Scenes of bitterness and sweetness suddenly floated in his mind. When he thought of Jieren, he wondered if he was living a peaceful life thousands of miles away. good? "Master's eyebrows and beard are probably a bit white like that weird master's, right?" Thinking of the master's kind face, Yang Lingfeng showed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
"The donor seems to be in a good mood." The monk didn't know when he came behind Yang Lingfeng again.
"Oh, it's Master. I just remembered some good memories from the past, and Master laughed. I just have something to ask, Master, can you give me some answers?" Yang Lingfeng bowed deeply and asked.
"Even if you have questions, I will answer them myself. With the donor's understanding, I'm afraid it won't be difficult to understand." The monk still looked calm.
"I am fascinated by the two ways of demon and Buddha. I dare to ask the master, how is a Buddha? How is a demon?"
"Even if the heart is a Buddha, on the opposite side of purity, who is it but a Buddha? The heart is also a demon. Before chaos, who is it but a demon?"
"What is purity? What is chaos?"
"A clear mind means indifference; a muddy mind means chaos."
Yang Lingfeng was stunned for a moment, and he had an epiphany in his heart, but he couldn't explain it in his mouth. He thought of his experiences in the past few days, which had some similarities, but he still didn't know how to deal with them.
The monk looked at Yang Lingfeng and said, "The donor seems a little unclear? Wait until I come and tell the donor a story."
When the Sixth Patriarch got his mantle and left Huangmei, many people wanted to chase him and snatch him away. But there was a disciple named Huiming, who was a general before he became a monk. He had outstanding martial arts and moved much faster than others. He was the first to catch up with the Sixth Patriarch. At this time, the Sixth Patriarch thought: 'This mantle and mantle of mine is a sign of faith in the Dharma, how can I use force to snatch it away? ¡¯ So the Sixth Patriarch placed his mantle and bowl on a big rock and hid himself in the grass to see how others would deal with it. Huiming caught up with him and saw the mantle and bowl placed on the stone. He thought to himself: "Now the mantle and bowl are easily available. The throne of the founder belongs to me." ¡¯ Unexpectedly, I tried to pick it up with my hands, but I couldn¡¯t pick it up. Some people say that the mantle is a token of the Dharma. Huiming did not obtain the Dharma and the Dharma Protector did not allow it, so he could not take it. Others say that is not the case. Huiming also knows that the mantle is for teaching the Dharma and cannot be snatched away by force. He has not yet obtained the Dharma. Even if he is snatched away by force, he will not be able to seize it by force.It's only superficial, and it's a bad deed. If you feel guilty in your heart, you can't take it anymore. Although there are different opinions, in the final analysis, the 'Faxin' cannot be snatched away by force. So Huiming repented and said, "I came here for the Dharma, not for the clothes." ¡¯ Then the Sixth Patriarch came out and said to Huiming: You come for the Dharma, and I will teach you the Dharma. Don¡¯t think about good or evil, and don¡¯t have any thoughts. In this way, Huiming remained motionless for a long time. At this moment, the Sixth Patriarch instructed him: "At this moment, that is the true face of Venerable Ming!" ¡¯ What is the clear gnosis? If it¡¯s not your true face, what is it? Not a single thought arises, the previous thought has been stopped, the subsequent thought has not arisen, the mind is clear and clear. Not a single thought arises, the mind has nothing to dwell on, it is as clear as a mirror reflecting objects, without distinction. The mind goes somewhere, lives somewhere, and only sees this thing. When the mind has nothing to dwell on, it is empty, everything is present. When it seems to be seen but not seen, who is it that shines brightly like a bright mirror on the uninhabited world? People who work hard will look back and learn from the past, grasp the wonderful things, and open their eyes. Without a single thought, the divine light that is clear and undifferentiated is your true face. There was nothing else, and Huiming realized it immediately.
After the monk finished speaking, he stared at Yang Lingfeng and continued to ask: "I will ask you again, the true truth is clear and empty, the common truth is clear, and the non-duality of true and common is the first meaning of the holy truth. The teachings are divided into five categories, but how to classify them? "
Although Yang Lingfeng was still confused, his thinking gradually became clearer, and he immediately answered: "The first is Hinayana, and the second is Mahayana. Mahayana is divided into four teachings: Beginning, Ending, Dun, and Yuan. There are five teachings in total. . The Hinayana has meaning, there are Dharma to practice, the Tao can be achieved, and Nirvana can be realized; the Mahayana begins to teach, from existence to emptiness, which is the beginning of the Mahayana's gradual teaching. It is clear that everything is empty, but it does not show that all living beings have Buddha nature. meaning; the Mahayana final teaching is the end of the gradual teaching, expounding the principle of dependent origination of truth, advocating that everything can become a Buddha, and clarifying the meaning of non-emptiness and non-existence; the Mahayana sudden teaching is to enlighten the rationality, and the current clear mind is the teaching, which is emptiness. That is to say, there is meaning; the Mahayana teaching is integrated with everything, perfect and full of virtue. It is not empty but not existence. It is not existence but not empty. That is to say, when it is said to be, it will not stand at all; when it is said to be empty, it will pervade the Dharma Realm. Ye. When adhering to the teachings, we should first talk about the true truth and the conventional truth, that is, first clarify the meaning of emptiness and existence. Then we will talk about the first meaning of truth, which is that emptiness cannot be obtained, and existence cannot be obtained. It is neither emptiness nor existence, and only emptiness means existence. Superior Principles'"
The monk showed admiration on his face and said: "Since the donor has such understanding, why do you still ask?"
Yang Lingfeng had an epiphany in his heart. It was precisely because he was still unable to achieve the state of neither emptiness nor existence, that is, emptiness and existence, that he was bothered by many trivial matters. He said with great joy: "Junior Yudu, thank you master for your advice."
The monk laughed and said: "It is a good thing that the donor has such understanding. Come, the donor will follow me around."
The two of them strolled across the square and came to a stone forest. The monk turned to look at Yang Lingfeng and asked, "Do you know why the donor is here?"
Yang Lingfeng didn't know the reason, so he took the lead and asked: "This matter needs the master's guidance. For some reason, this junior can't remember it. He only remembers what happened the day before yesterday." Thinking that the Wolf King was gone, Yang Lingfeng had a look on his face. Despite the gray color, his mood has improved a lot.
The monk sang a Buddha's name and said: "The night before last, the benefactor lost his mind and became ferocious. Fifty-two members of a Qian family in Luoyang City were brutally exterminated by the benefactor. The next day, the benefactor was found unconscious in the suburbs by a disciple of Lao Na. Sent the donor here."
With the monk's suggestion, the memories in Yang Lingfeng's chaotic mind merged together in a moment, and his face looked quite embarrassed and a little regretful.
The monk still looked the same as before and said: "Donor, don't panic. What you do when you lose your mind does not represent the benefactor's original intention. I don't think the benefactor is a vicious person, but he is destined to have such a fate in the Qian family." This calamity."
Yang Lingfeng was grateful in his heart and said: "This junior is also forced to have no choice. Although the pain of losing a good teacher and friend inspired his ferocity, and he accidentally injured so many lives, it is so helpless. Thank you, Master, for your understanding."
The monk laughed and said: "All things in the world are like this. Demons, Taoists, and Buddhas all reach the same destination through different paths. Everything arises from the heart, and the donor does not have to force it. The stone forest in front was created by the seniors of this temple. Since the donor is a destined person, you might as well go in and explore, or It helps the benefactor.¡±
Yang Lingfeng looked at the monk, and he seemed to have a profound meaning. He felt grateful and bowed to the monk from afar, then turned and walked towards the stone forest.
On both sides of the stone forest, there is a lush green bamboo forest, which is bottomless, as if the stone forest was born in the bamboo forest, mixed with nature, and no trace can be found.
Yang Lingfeng walked into the stone forest and walked more than ten feet. Suddenly, he felt as if his whole body was restrained. There was an invisible pressure that prevented him from moving. In addition, the ground under his feet seemed to tilt towards the east, making it difficult to move even an inch, so he quickly retreated. But he still felt like this, and suddenly realized that he had just touched the formation eye and activated the formation. In an instant, the originally beautiful bamboo forest suddenly became troubled. Dots of sunlight shining in the forest made the image of the stone forest come to life. Yang Lingfeng suddenly felt that the stone forest had expanded in an instant.?Several times.
Although he was shocked but calmed down, Yang Lingfeng suddenly sat on the ground and entered a state of silence.
The formations were flowing endlessly, and suddenly the position of the person entering the formation could not be felt, and they seemed to disappear out of thin air. After a while, there was still no response, and the formations in the stone forest gradually stopped.
The formation suddenly stopped, which surprised the monk outside the stone forest and the mysterious figure inside the stone forest at the same time. This formation is called the Bagua Liangyi Formation. Generally speaking, this stone forest will not automatically stop the formation unless the formation has been broken or the person who broke the formation has died. To say that the formation has been broken, it is impossible to break it in such a short time, even for those who are familiar with this formation. This formation is reborn as a phantom under the sun. One is transformed into seven, and one positive must be reversed. You must first destroy the two positive formations at the beginning and the end, and then destroy the counter formation at the end, and then enter the true form of the third gate to break through. However, it is also very difficult to find the first and last two main formations in a short period of time. It is impossible to say that Yang Lingfeng encountered an accident in the formation. This formation mainly restrains the mental power of the breaker and does no substantial harm to the breaker.
While thinking about it, the formation in the stone forest suddenly started to move. This was a strange thing.
But it was Yang Lingfeng who inadvertently touched the formation in the stone forest, causing the formation to attack and immediately exerting a huge restraint on Yang Lingfeng's mental power, which was worse than before. Yang Lingfeng persisted for a moment, until he couldn't bear it anymore, and then he hurriedly sat down and concentrated on himself.
The monk was outside the formation and saw the formation stop and go. He didn't know why. He secretly thought that this boy was amazing and had such a special ability. Little did he know that such a result was also the result of his own instructions.
After walking around the stone circle for thirteen rounds, the daylight was almost gone, and the phantom was also broken a lot. Finally, Yang Lingfeng caught his eye and felt where the birth gate of the Stone Forest Formation was. He quickly destroyed the first and last two formation eyes that were interfering with him. Then he touched the last formation's counter-formation eye. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and left. Arrived at the exit of the third door.
The moonlight has already slid down the earth and is scattered throughout the open space of only a few dozen feet.
Outside the stone forest, there are only steep cliffs and a huge cave directly opposite the Nasheng Gate. The cave was dark, but seemed to emit a little light, and it was not so clear under the cover of the moonlight.
While he was hesitating, an old voice came from the cave: "Young man, come in, the real world is in the cave."
The sound is not loud, but it sounds full of energy. Through the hollow stone walls in the cave, the effect is a buzzing sound, and it feels like the stone walls are vibrating. Who is the master?
Yang Lingfeng didn't have the slightest disturbance in his heart at the moment, and he was not as prone to making a fuss as before. After a pause and some breathing adjustment, he walked into the cave with very tired steps.
From the outside, the cave looks very deep and empty. When you get closer, you realize that it is just an illusion caused by the dim background. The actual size of the passage is only enough for one or two people to pass through at the same time. There is a stone tablet on the lower left side of the cave entrance, which reads "Youran Ju". The writing style is not similar to that of any other painter, but the strokes are flowing, vigorous and powerful, and it is unique in its own way. It is pleasing to the eye and quite memorable. The inner wall of the cave is very smooth, without any abrupt feeling, but it is not naturally formed, and it is polished very meticulously, which shows that the identity of the mysterious figure inside cannot be underestimated.
Looking for the light, the further you go inside, the more abundant the light becomes. Strangely, there is no smoke and smoke like oil lamps and candles. Instead, there is a vague fragrance of flowers. What kind of flower scent is it? Yang Lingfeng took a deep breath and thought about it, but it was something he had never smelled before. There is a bit of killing in the freshness, and there is a sense of peace in the vastness.
"It's only about ten steps, but the donor has walked for so long. Is this fragrance really so tempting?" There was a bit of joking in the old voice, but it was not unreasonable.
Yang Lingfeng took a closer look, but saw no one. He took a few big steps, turned through the two stone gates in front, and stepped into a large stone room. His eyes were suddenly filled with soft light. There are no candles or oil lamps, but the light is from the seven night pearls on the top of the stone chamber.
The seven stars above the head are the seven night pearls, arranged in the position of the Big Dipper on the top of the ceiling, pointing far to the north. In the stone room below, there is a table in the middle with a tea set on it. The hands are extremely smooth, which must have been accumulated over the years. There are two bamboo chairs surrounding it, which are dark yellow and white in color.
Facing the entrance of the stone chamber, a skinny old monk stood with his hands behind his back, staring at a set of words hanging on the wall, which was the Buddhist Zen.
Yang Lingfeng took a step forward, bowed his hands and said, "It is a sin for this junior to come here and disturb the master's purity."
The old monk did not turn his head and said motionlessly: "Where is the purity? How can there be any disturbance. This place has been here for nearly seventy years.The old man was all alone. The little benefactor was the second person to come here, but it was too late for the old man to be happy. Why don¡¯t the little donor sit down and talk? He should be considered a guest here, but Lao Na is being rude. "
Yang Lingfeng was really tired. After hearing this, he picked the nearest chair and sat down. After making a babbling sound, he felt something was wrong, and then stood up again and said: "Senior, please sit down too, otherwise junior It seems like it¡¯s taking the spotlight.¡±
The old monk laughed, turned around, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Yang Lingfeng. But he is a tall man with white hair and a childlike face, with piercing eyes.
Yang Lingfeng hurriedly took it, but doubts arose in his heart. He held the teacup but forgot to put it down, and asked, "I wonder why Master lives here alone?"
The old monk said: "Lao Monk is practicing Zen. The Buddha is the one who helps the destined people. Today, Lao Na is crossing over to the little benefactor. Of course, it is also the little benefactor who is helping Lao Na out of the suffering of Zen."
Yang Lingfeng was surprised and asked: "Master, what do you mean by this?"
The old monk looked at the Big Dipper on the top and said slowly: "This place is called Youranju. I came here only seventy years ago. I don't know when I came here. I remember that day. Because he violated the Buddhist precepts, he was punished to face the wall here. Unexpectedly, all this was the deliberate arrangement of several masters of Lao Na. Since then, Lao Na has not left, but only chants sutras and chants Buddha's name every day. Twenty years ago A Buddhist disciple came in, but because no one was taking care of the Buddhist affairs, he was only allowed to stay for three months before he had to leave. That was the first person who came in after Lao Monk arrived here. And the little donor was the second Someone who comes here."
Yang Lingfeng couldn't help but interjected: "So the master is a hundred years old?"
The old monk looked at Yang Lingfeng and said: "It's funny. I'm probably almost two hundred years old now, but I still can't figure out all these mysteries. If I'm not wrong, the little benefactor's previous life He should be an old friend of Lao Na."
Yang Lingfeng was shocked to hear the old monk talk about his past life, and when he thought of the wolf king who had lost his soul, his heart felt like a knife cutting him. After a pause, he managed to squeeze out a few words through his teeth: "To be honest, Master, this junior is the reincarnation of the Wolf King."
The old monk was slightly stunned and said: "No wonder the aura of the little donor is somewhat similar to that of the Wolf King, but I don't know why I can't see where the Wolf King's soul is?"
Yang Lingfeng felt sad. Hearing what this monk said, he must have a deep connection with the Wolf King. He was a figure like his father's generation. He was now very close to him, so he told the whole story without hiding anything. I know this old monk.
When the old monk heard Yang Lingfeng's eloquent words, he couldn't help sighing and said: "Unexpectedly, the Wolf King, who was so heroic back then, ended up in a state of despair. That's all. Maybe this was his relief."
Yang Lingfeng heard that the old monk was also sad, and his heart moved, and he shed tears again.
After all, the old monk was an outsider, and his view of life and death was extremely ordinary. He calmed down after a moment and said: "It seems that the young benefactor is really destined to Lao Monk. This way he will not waste his kindness as the Wolf King."
Yang Lingfeng looked at the old monk and understood that the monk wanted to give him some guidance. He quickly knelt down and said, "I hope that the senior can give some guidance to the junior. The junior is determined to get rid of all the demons in the world." After saying this, he kowtowed hurriedly. .
When the old monk saw this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly obeyed Yang Lingfeng and said: "The donor and the Wolf King are like father and son. They are also old friends. It won't matter if I give you some advice. Get up!"
By the way, Xu Zhiheng¡¯s trip back has been quite fruitful. Judging from the wounds on the fifty-one corpses of the Qian family, it is almost certain that they were caused by the reincarnated Wolf King Yang Lingfeng. Xu Zhiheng thought of the zombie case that was settled in Yuncheng not long ago. Together with Yang Lingfeng, the battle with the Corpse King was thrilling. Compared with cruelty and ferocity, Yang Lingfeng is not enough to compare with himself. But if Yang Lingfeng reveals his true nature and loses his mind, his cruelty, ferocity and wolf nature will be far beyond his ability. For Yang Lingfeng and the Remnant Dream Bracelet, it didn't matter whether he concealed his identity or not.
Xu Zhiheng went to the prefect¡¯s Yamen that day, but there were no clues. Qian Jiayi, the only one who might know the inside story, would not say that her memory had been wiped out, but it would be difficult for his uncle alone to deal with it. Although he was not a high-ranking official, he was still working in the court, but he was not a good person to offend his master. And the idiot Tongzhifu seemed to know more than he did. In desperation, Xu Zhiheng had nowhere to go, so he walked back home in a fool's errand.
As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, Xu Zhiheng was stunned for a while, thinking that he had walked into the wrong door in confusion. After taking a closer look, I found that I was not mistaken. Where was the Changshou Village built by my father?
In the courtyard, there was an incense table filled with chickens and ducks.I eat meat, but I don¡¯t know who is asking God or sending it to Buddha. If something happened in my family, why didn't I know about it? But there was no one at the door at this time, and it was strangely tight.
As soon as he entered the door, Xu Zhiheng's heart was filled with alarm, and he hurriedly wanted to fly back, but it was too late. A large golden net covered his head. The door was quickly closed. Xu Zhiheng still wanted to break free, but unexpectedly, this strange net was very weird. Once it came into contact with him, it was like encountering a vortex, sucking all his internal energy away in a moment, making him unable to move.
The net shrank tighter and tighter, until Xu Zhiheng could no longer move. Xu Changchun led a Taoist priest out of the darkness.
Xu Zhiheng was shocked when he saw this and said angrily: "Dad, what are you doing? Why do you let this monster lock up the child?" Dad is his father after all, and Xu Zhiheng still didn't believe that his father would suddenly treat him like this, especially When outsiders are around.
"Heng'er, since you came back this time, Dad has felt that you have changed a lot. It wasn't until he met this master that he realized that you were possessed by an evil spirit. Please bear with it for a while and wait for this Taoist priest to exorcise the evil spirit for you. After the devil is gone, dad will naturally let you out.
Xu Zhiheng was furious and said: "How can the child have any evil spirit in his body? Dad, you are so confused. What are you listening to the stinky Taoist priests talking about? You just want to make some sesame oil money. It's better to let the child go and make things easier for him to save him." Come to tease the children."
Xu Changchun had an apologetic look on his face and turned to the Taoist priest and said, "Taoist Priest, don't mind. This kid has lost his mind and hopes that the Taoist Priest will rescue him."
But the Taoist priest was not angry and said politely: "Mr. Xu, don't worry, there is a Taoist here to guarantee that your young master is fine. It won't be too late, let's start taking action now."
Xu Zhiheng was shocked, but he didn't know how to escape at this moment, so he had to wait quietly.
In an instant, Xu Zhiheng felt a powerful force hit Shenting and fainted.
Seeing that Xu Zhiheng fainted, everyone couldn't help but become worried. The Taoist priest stepped forward to take a look and said, "It's nothing serious. Don't worry, Mr. Xu."
After hearing this, Xu Changchun breathed a sigh of relief. After all, this kind of Taoism is still rare. He quickly helped Xu Zhiheng to the bedroom to rest, worshiped the Taoist priest as the guest of honor, and held a feast.
Not long after, Xu Zhiheng woke up and remembered the frightening scene just now. The heartbreaking pain was still stimulating his feelings. Other than that, there is no other strange feeling, other than the complete loss of internal strength. "That golden wire mesh is a treasure. Hmm, you're really brave to deceive me after learning two bullshit mystical skills." Xu Zhiheng scolded him when he thought about it, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. After all, this bullshit Taoist priest could cheat him. It's this old and confused father. If he wants to believe him, there is nothing he can do for a while. "It's better to use the trick and let that bullshit Taoist priest have a try."
Xu Zhiheng looked at the sky and saw that it was still very early. He quickly got up and called the maid in.
When the maid heard Xu Zhiheng's call, she was still very scared, fearing that there might be some kind of ghost or something in him, so she quickly ran to call Xu Changchun over. Girls are timid after all.
Xu Changchun was chatting with the old Taoist in the guest room at this time, talking about some things about practicing Taoism, which opened the eyes of people like Xu Changchun. After hearing the maid's report, he hurriedly walked to Xu Zhiheng's room, followed by the old Taoist. Then he followed.
Xu Zhiheng called the maid for a long time, but no one answered. He secretly thought that he could take advantage of his coma and be harmed by the demon, and end up with the same fate as the Qian family. He quickly put on his clothes. Just as he was about to go out, the door to the room had been pushed open, but no one was standing at the door but had not come in. It was Xu Changchun who came with the evil spirit.
"Zhiheng, how do you feel?" Xu Changchun and Yan Zhen were waiting. Although the demon swore that there would be no problems, it was better to be careful after all.
Seeing that his family was fine, Xu Zhiheng felt relieved. He looked at Xu Changchun and the demon Taoist at the door, and suddenly knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you, Taoist Master, for saving my life, and thank you father for your care. If it weren't for the Taoist Master and my father, Sir, the child may not be able to stand and talk at this time." Of course, you have to sing the whole set when singing an opera. How can such a touching scene be without tears? After saying that, Xu Zhiheng's tears flowed out line by line.
Xu Changchun was overjoyed when he saw this. He quickly stepped forward to help Xu Zhiheng and comforted him: "As long as you are okay, I will accept your father's death even if you are dead. Come and thank Taoist Master Zhenyan properly."
Xu Zhiheng stood up and bowed to Zhenyanzi, "Thank you so much, Taoist Master. I will never forget your life-saving grace."
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?At this time, he was quite proud. He waved his hand and said: "It's not a big deal, little brother. Don't worry about it. Such courtesy makes a poor man feel bad. Looking at the face of the little brother, it's nothing serious. You two can relax."
Xu Zhiheng had a smile on his face and laughed loudly, but he was extremely angry in his heart. If he hadn't lost all his internal strength due to the strange net, he might have destroyed his moral character.
That day, Xu Zhiheng's skin was pierced by the evil hook sword. Although he didn't feel anything wrong at the time, he later noticed that there was a strange and not very strong Qi in his body. He tried countless methods but couldn't drive it out, so he had no choice but to Refined it. Later, the person's personality changed, but this change made Xu Zhiheng very excited.
It was Xu Changchun who stood up to smooth things over and said, "Taoist Master, it's getting late. I've already asked people to prepare food and wine, mostly vegetarian. Let's go get some food first and give Taoist Master a drink."
The food and wine are all prepared by Changshou Village itself. Even so, the skill of the chef invited is needless to say, and Zhen Yanzi is constantly praising the food.
When the wine reached a high point, the mantra was praised by the two of them, intentionally and unintentionally, and they gave birth to the confidence that they could poke a hole in the sky. Xu Zhiheng is a person who has been hanging out in the wine shop for a long time, and this drink is not a problem. He sees the opportunity and asks: "By the way, Master Zhenyan, what kind of magic net are you using today?" It's so good, but when I was bound, I couldn't move at all."
When the man heard this, he burst out laughing and said, "It's you. Even if the King of Heaven is caught in the golden silkworm net of Pindao, I will keep it so that he has no place to escape."
Xu Changchun heard that this old Taoist became arrogant after drinking, and he seemed not to be a Taoist with high magical power. But when I thought about what happened today, I frowned and let it go. I just said that I was too preoccupied.
Xu Zhiheng was overjoyed when he heard that this net was called the "Golden Silkworm Net" and said, "Master Taoist, can you give me that sacred net to look at? I really admire it."
Jingonzi frowned and said nothing, as if he was still hesitating and having an ideological struggle in his heart.
Seeing this, Xu Zhiheng knew there was something going on, and hurriedly praised him: "Taoist Master, you know that ordinary people like us may never see this kind of magical weapon in our lives. Today, we are lucky enough to meet someone like Taoist Master." Foreign experts, please have mercy on me from the Taoist priest."
During the day, when the mantra was doing the magic, he was only worried about his son's safety, but did not pay attention to the magic weapon in the Taoist priest's hand. When I heard Xu Zhiheng talking about it, I thought that the net was indeed not ordinary, and when I saw Xu Zhiheng begging for it, I felt a little touched in my heart, and I also joined in with it.
The mantra's brows gradually widened and he shouted: "Okay, in that case, today is considered a fate between me and you, my little brother. Just take a look at it. It's not that big of a deal." After saying that, he reached out and took out the never-before-seen item from his arms. The golden residual net that left easily was handed to Xu Zhiheng.
Xu Zhiheng was overjoyed and took it over to play with carefully.
I saw that the golden residue network was dark in golden light, and the tentacles were quite uncomfortable. After a closer look, I found that the dense pouring stabs were distributed on the net silk. I pulled the net hard with my hands, but it was extremely strong. Xu Zhiheng stood up, walked to the empty space, held the hub of the net, and pushed it into the air. It stretched out to be half the size of the room.
Mangako looked at it for a long time and said: "The use of this net is the same as that of ordinary nets. The emphasis is on using just the right amount of force on the wrist. In addition, there must be a set of body skills to match. The little brother has no internal strength at the moment and lacks true energy. Otherwise, if he uses the real When Qi is injected into this net, it can be retracted and released freely."
Xu Zhiheng is talented and smart, and he mastered some tricks in a short time, but in the end he couldn't figure it out.
The man who looked at the truth became aroused. He put down his wine glass and walked out. Looking at Xu Zhiheng's clumsy posture, he laughed loudly and said, "Come on, let me teach you two tricks."
After saying that, he took the golden silkworm net from Xu Zhiheng's hand, took a diagonal step, and stood up. The golden net in his hand shot out, covering the sky and the earth. In the center of the courtyard, there seems to be a piece of golden cloud flying constantly, sometimes changing in thousands of ways, as soft as boneless; sometimes like a copper wall and an iron wall, seamless. When Xu Zhiheng was feeling relaxed and happy, Zhenyanzi put back his wrist, raised his hand to shine on an ornamental ginkgo tree next to the courtyard, and suddenly lifted it up, and the ginkgo tree was uprooted immediately.
Xu Zhiheng and Xu Changchun were dumbfounded by Zhenyanzi's move. Xu Changchun was shocked that this seemingly weak old Taoist had such magical power to uproot a ginkgo tree; but Xu Zhiheng noticed that the ginkgo in the net was rapidly withering and changing color, and it became a dead thing in a moment. Even if it is used as firewood, it will not work.
Jingonko realized that this was not his territory after all, and it was not okay to cause chaos and destruction. He quickly shook the net and took it into his arms.?, said: "I'm really sorry. I had a sudden impatience and destroyed this ginkgo tree. I wanted to play a few tricks, but instead I ended up burning the harp and boiling the crane. I'm really sorry. I hope the donor can forgive me." "
Xu Changchun only reacted when he heard what Zhenyanzi said. He laughed and said, "The Taoist priest is really powerful. It's a blessing for a few small trees to be able to transcend under the Taoist priest's hands. The Taoist priest also invited me to have a meal. Don't let it happen." These trivial things have dampened the Taoist priest's interest."
Xu Zhiheng also quickly agreed and followed in. The moment he entered the door, he turned around and saw that the boiled ginkgo had been turned into a pile of wood residue under the care of the servants.
Early the next morning, Zhen Yanzi came to ask for his resignation, saying that he would go north to Taiyuan. After hearing this, Xu Changchun said: "In this case, I don't force the Taoist to stay with me anymore. I wanted to spend a few more days with the Taoist. Zhiheng, please see the Taoist out of the city."
After hearing this, Xu Zhiheng was secretly happy and said, "Even if dad doesn't say anything, the child will still go to see off the Taoist priest."
Xu Changchun and Zhenyanzi laughed and said, "That's good."
After that, Xu Changchun handed a baggage to the servant, then handed it to Zhenyanzi, saying: "Here is only a thousand taels of gold. It is only given to the Taoist priest as a way to travel. I hope the Taoist priest doesn't want it." decline."
Zhenyanzi was very happy in his heart. You should know that these one thousand taels of high-quality gold were considered a huge sum. He pretended to refuse it, then accepted it, and then left the city with Xu Zhiheng.
The next morning, Yang Lingfeng stretched a few times and woke up, only to find that there was no one in the stone room. The monk Jueyuan had disappeared. Yang Lingfeng looked up and saw a stack of yellowed books on the coffee table in the corner. He remembered that Jue Yuan had told him yesterday that he could read the books here at will, so he rubbed his sore arms and walked over.
The top few are the Prajnabhava Heart Sutra, recited orally, and the Maha Prajna Boruta Sutra. Just ordinary Buddhist teachings. Below are the Yi Jin Sutra, the Formless Heart Sutra, the Eight Dharmas of the Tathagata and other Buddhist secret books.
Yang Lingfeng was excited when she saw the Formless Heart Sutra. The Formless Heart Sutra taught by Monk Jieren before had many incomplete and missing parts, so perhaps this should be the complete version. Sure enough, Yang Lingfeng picked it up and turned it over to where there was a broken page in his memory. It was intact. He immediately beamed with joy and couldn't wait to read it carefully.
After a while, Monk Jueyuan walked in with a basket of fruits picked from nowhere. When he saw Yang Lingfeng who was reading with gusto, he couldn't help but feel funny.
Yang Lingfeng was so excited that he suddenly realized that Jue Yuan had come back and was staring at him with strange eyes. He couldn't help feeling embarrassed. He closed the book and bowed, "I'm sorry, junior. I'm just excited to see that this Heart Sutra is intact." Master, please don¡¯t be offended.¡±
Jue Yuan waved his hand, laughed and sat down, saying: "No wonder, no wonder. The secret books here are all handed down by our ancestors and have been well preserved, so there should be no defects. The Immortal Heart Sutra is very particular. This is the state of inaction, no image, no one and no self.¡±
After Yang Lingfeng listened, he chewed the taste carefully. It felt like the spring breeze in the afternoon, and his spirit was lifted. He said with great joy: "Thank you, Master, for your guidance."
Jue Yuan stared at Yang Lingfeng motionless for a while, seeming to appreciate it, and suddenly said: "Master, master, calling the poor monk this way seems to be too flattering to me. I was punished here. If not If you don't like it, I can learn from your master and accept you as a lay disciple. Firstly, your master Jieren is also a Buddhist, and secondly, I can give you guidance in a legitimate way. I wonder what Shi's idea is?"
After hearing this, Yang Lingfeng was overjoyed. He knelt down with a bang and kowtowed: "Disciple pays homage to the master."
A group of five people, Xu Zhiheng, Zhenyanzi, and the other three people brought out from the six gates, just came out of the city gate, there was a thunder in the sky, and it started to rain lightly.
Xu Zhiheng pretended to curse: "I said the weather was not very good this morning, why did it rain so quickly?" Then he laughed and said: "It seems that God wants to invite Taoist Master Zhenyan to play in the mansion for a few more days. "Taoist priest can't rush in the rain. If you are not in good health, I will feel sorry for you. It's better to ask the Taoist priest to go back to the village to rest for a few days." I really lamented in my heart that God understands my heart so well. , If you help each other like this, you will definitely burn more incense sticks and buy more sacrifices in the future. After saying that, he took Mangonzi and walked back to avoid the rain.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Black clouds covering the sun, and mist. I wonder how long it will rain, and for some reason, my mind suddenly became uneasy. After thinking about it, I'm afraid it would be unfavorable to travel in the rain. It would be better to stay in Luoyang for a while, at least until the rain stops. Hehe smiled and said: "That's the case, then I have no choice but to disturb your house." After saying this, the few of them chatted for a while and then followed Xu Zhiheng back to Changshou Village.
I saw Changshou Village from a distance, this timeBut he went in through the back door, along the way. Of course, it was also the route Xu Zhiheng deliberately took.
If there were no accidents, Xu Changchun should have taken the housekeeper to the Chamber of Commerce today. There should be few people in the village, and if there were any, they would just be some servants. "If that's really the case, then we'll do it later. This guy is pretty good, so just kill him." Xu Zhiheng thought of this, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Sure enough, everyone in Zhuangzi rarely walked around because of the rain. They were all doing their own things and performing their duties. Xu Zhiheng was secretly excited. This mantra was getting more and more unsettling, but he should be fine in Changshou Village, right? I don¡¯t know if this man of truth has done any evil deeds in his daily life, or if he owed Xu Zhiheng something in his previous life, but God will not help him.
Xu Zhiheng let the mantra go to the living room, sent away the three subordinates who were seeing him off, and went to make a pot of special tea himself. The tea is good tea, West Lake Longjing.
