Besides, Hui Neng returned to Luodong Village to say goodbye to Liang Jinlian. When he returned to Shimen, it was already the moon on the willow branches, and Mrs. Li had already gone to bed to sleep.
Huineng gently picked up the bag of dried mountain herbs and went down the mountain under the hazy moonlight.
The moonlight is like water, the moonlight night is like a dream...
Huineng walked out of Shimen, passed Huluo Bridge, and climbed over Fengmen Col. He was as light as a swallow flying over the Tianlu Mountain stream, and walked southward along Longshan Mountain.
When you get to the middle of the mountain, you can cross the small bridges of the two gullies and the flowing water, and you can see Longshan Mountain in the distance.
Arriving at the foothills of Longshan Mountain, clear streams flowed quietly around the mountain. The endless wilderness not far away contrasts with the green mountains and green waters here, which makes Huineng even more emotional...
Longshan is located in Jiji Town (now Liuzu Town) in the south of Xinzhou County. This ancient land has a long history, and the incense from the Qin and Han Dynasties continues to this day. The Luxi River, which runs through the town from south to north, is sparkling and beautiful, adding a bit of aura to the land on both sides of the river and at the same time irrigating the beautiful scenery on both sides.
Longshan is a famous Lingnan mountain with a long history. It is backed by green mountains and faces the Luxi wilderness. From a distance, it looks like the cassock worn by an eminent monk, so it is also called "Cassock Ridge". There are three peaks on the ridge, which are called "Sanbaoding". A mountain range winds down from "Baoding Peak", shaped like a swimming dragon, with an altitude of 164 meters, so it is also called "Dragon Mountain".
The standing Longshan, with its stillness and solemnity, restrains the pursuit of excess desires, and with its loud and clear Zen music, it symbolizes the rebirth and baptism of the human soul.
Longshan, the mountain is not high but the bells are beautiful, and the Luxi River, the water is not deep but clear and clear. When Huineng returned to this realistic land from the long history and the mysterious meditation, he felt the clarity of the river again. and the lush green mountains, all of which made him realize even more how short, precious and beautiful life is.
Huineng quietly savored the Zen feeling exuded in every ray of air here...
Surrounded by mountains, Longshan is filled with the sound of Bodhi wisdom, burning sounds and objects, water flowing like chants, green peaks like paintings, Zen opportunities everywhere, and infinite scenery.
Huineng reluctantly left Longshan and walked through a large paddy field to Li Xiaolan's home in Houliang Village.
At this time, Huineng looked up at the night sky. Half of the bright moon hung over Houliang Village, as high as a bamboo pole, asking him to reach out and pick it. It seemed that Li Xiaolan was greeting him cordially: "Brother Aneng, you are back!"
Hui Neng was so happy that he almost jumped up and shouted. He wants to bring good news to Li Xiaolan and her parents: Huineng is back and has become the Sixth Patriarch of Zen Buddhism. Now he is back to visit you!
Huineng took three steps and then two steps to walk to the west end of the village. Suddenly, under the hazy moonlight, he noticed two figures who looked like warrior monks not far away appearing at the west entrance of the village, heading this way.
"No..." Huineng couldn't help but scream in his heart, and then hid in the pile of straw on the roadside of the village.
After a while, he heard footsteps approaching from a distance. Huineng hid in the grass and used the moonlight to see clearly that the two people were the monks from Dongchan Temple.
The burly warrior monk walking in front was Hong De, who slapped him when he first arrived at Huangmei Dongchan Temple and paid homage to the Fifth Patriarch Hongren. He was a reckless man who had breasts and was a mother. In Dongchan Temple, except for Shenxiu is the closest to Yingyin.
The short warrior monk walking behind was named Jiang and Yibiao. He was a man of considerable scheming and martial arts. In Dongzen Temple, he was known as the short-legged tiger and the hidden dog-headed military advisor.
Just as Hong De was walking through the grass on the roadside, Jiang Yibiao, who was walking behind, said to Hong De in front: "Brother Hong, why are you walking so fast! Stop and wait for me."
Hong De slowed down and said to Jiang Yibiao a little impatiently: "Brother Jiang, why are you still so serious? Shi Rulong and the others have all gone back, leaving us here to suffer. In my opinion, we should go back quickly. Go get some sleep again."
"I'm in a hurry, wait for me, I'll take a break in the straw pile." Jiang Yibiao said as he walked to a stop near Huineng's hiding place, unbuttoned his pants and started peeing.
Hong De stood in front, turned around, and said to Jiang Yibiao: "Hey, brother Jiang, let me ask you, in Dongchan Temple, you and Yingyin are the best. Do you know why he treats Huineng?" To kill them all?"
"Senior Brother Hong, you don't know something about this. I'll tell you later..." After Jiang Yibiao finished, he walked up to Hong De, "However, I have something to say first. I tell you, you can't tell anyone else."
Hong De: "Okay!" Hong De's voice was like thunder.
Through the gap in the rice pile, Hui Neng saw Jiang Yibiao stepping forward, facing Hong De, and said mysteriously: "Senior Brother Hong, tell me, you will never believe in your dreams that this Ying Yin is actually related to that Hui Neng. Revenge of death..."
It was still late at night. Hui Neng was hiding in the straw pile and could hear clearly. His heart skipped a beat. He couldn't help but search his guts and asked himself: "How is this possible?"
At this time, I only heard Hong De say: "Brother Jiang, it's impossible, right? Huineng has a kind face and kind eyes, and a good heart. Usually, I see that he is enthusiastic and generous, willing to suffer losses, and always being kind to others. How could he be related to Ying Yin?" Where did you hear about murderous revenge?"
Jiang Yibiao: "He said it himself."
Hong De: "Oh? So...this thing...is true?"
"But..." Jiang Yibiao hesitated.
"But what?" Hong De asked.
"He said it when he had a dream..." Jiang Yibiao said honestly.
Hong De: "Hey, brother Jiang, you believe what I said in the dream. You are so smart and you are still a master!"
Jiang Yibiao: "Senior Brother Hong, I didn't believe it at first, but then the more I heard about it, the more I found out about it, so I believed it."
Hong De: "Why is there such a pattern and path?"
Jiang Yibiao: "One night, Yingyin asked me to accompany him to drink outside. He was very drunk, fell asleep, and talked in his sleep. At first, he said that senior brother Shenxiu had left Dongzen Temple, and five After the ancestor passed away, the Sixth Patriarch must belong to him..."
Hong De: "Oh? I see. No wonder he wants to kill Huineng!"
Jiang Yibiao: "This is just one aspect. On the other hand, he said he wanted to avenge his death."
Hong De: "What kind of murderous revenge?"
Jiang Yibiao: "He said in his dream that Huineng and him offered advice to Zhang Zhongchang, the magistrate of Xinzhou, who used a trick to 'lead the snake out of its hole' to solve the case of him and Cui Defu raping and killing Feng Feiyan, the daughter of Wu Orion, a villager in Xinzhou Ding. He and Cui Defu were sentenced to Qiu. Later, I asked to kill him."
Huineng, who was hiding in the straw pile, understood everything when Jiang Yibiao said this. But he didn't understand why Yan Fakui was still alive when he saw Yan Fakui and Cui Defu being taken to the execution ground to be executed on the day of execution.
While Huineng was thinking hard, he heard Jiang Yibiao say again: "Yingyin said proudly in his dream that fortunately his elder brother was alert enough, bribed the jailer, found someone with the same build and appearance as him, and used With one move, he became his scapegoat..."
"Ah, that's it! No wonder the heads of the two criminals were covered with a piece of black cloth when they were taken to the execution ground." At this time, Huineng, just like waking up from a dream, finally understood.
Immediately afterwards, Huineng heard Jiang Yibiao say: "Brother Hong, you said that Huineng's unmarried daughter-in-law is really pretty. Last time Shi Rulong and we came to see her in person, she really had the appearance of a fish out of place. The appearance of a moon-shy flower."
Hong De: "Yes! Huineng, a southern barbarian, is very lucky. If she hadn't happened to meet Xinzhou Governor Zhang at her home that time, she would have learned that Zhang Governor was her father's student, and that the then Prime Minister Li Chunfeng was her father's best friend. , I think Shi Rulong will definitely follow Ying Yin’s instructions and rape him first and then kill him.”
Jiang Yibiao: "In my opinion, she won't be killed later. Who wouldn't pity such a great beauty? She is definitely raped."
Hong De: "Today, Shi Rulong and the others went back, but my brothers were left here to do this hard work. I'm really angry!"
Jiang Yibiao: "I don't think so. I can see this great beauty every day. In my opinion, this is a good job! Besides, if Huineng comes and catches him and goes back to work, we will have made a meritorious service. Besides, every day Being able to see a stunning beauty and smell the fragrance emanating from her body will make me satisfied.”
"Brother Jiang, I didn't expect you to be a lustful ghost, so lustful! You know, the word "sex" has a knife in its head! Let's go, go outside the wall of Li's Mansion now and smell the fragrance emanating from her sleep. ." After Hong De finished speaking, he laughed "Haha" and walked away...
Hui Neng hid in the straw pile. After a pack of cigarettes, and after confirming that Hong De and Jiang Yibiao were gone, he came out of the straw pile, looked around, quietly, thinking: This Ying Yin turns out to be Yan Fakui, no wonder He pursued me all the way and was vicious, and even set fire to the mountain to burn me to death... Fortunately, the sky has eyes, and Buddha protected me and escaped this disaster; that Shi Rulong is not an easy person, and he still has the backing to catch me. …
Thinking of this, Hui Neng couldn't help but look at Li Xiaolan's courtyard under the moonlight. He bent his fingers and counted them, and said to himself, "Finally, since I have separated from the Fifth Patriarch and retreated south to the mountains and wilderness, it has not yet been time to go out to spread the Dharma." , it seems reasonable.”
Huineng stood beside the straw pile, looking lovingly at the big blue brick house of Li Xiaolan's house not far away. The night fog soaked his clothes, and the wind messed up his hair, but it could not take away his love for the Li family compound. With deep longing and attachment, he just stood beside the straw pile, taking steps several times, wanting to move forward...
At this moment, his beloved was right in front of him. The door of the Li family courtyard seemed to be open to him, and in the darkness at the corner of the door, Hong De and Jiang Yibiao were waiting there with eager eyes... He wanted to go but couldn't, this was What unspeakable sadness!
Huineng raised his head and looked at the familiar Li family courtyard under the moonlight, tears welling up in his eyes. He was rational and did not let any more tears fall.
He secretly said to himself: "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time. Let's wait until we get out of the mountain before making any plans." He held back his tears, turned around, and strode away from Houliang Village...
