Another day, there was finally a knock on the door.
"Zuo Zhuzhi should have arrived, shall we go and take a look?" Zhou Yongyuan said.
Zuo Zhuzhi was the last person. As soon as he arrived, the action started, so the four of them walked out of the side hall. The people with the third surname also opened the door and stood on the corridor. Ran Nian and Feng Shanhai also came out of the lobby, still It was Feng Shanhai who went to open the door.
"Fellow Daoist Feng, it's good morning, fellow Taoists." The gray-faced Zuo Zhuzhi felt uncomfortable with the gazes coming from the quadrangle. Hey, was he late or something? They all came out to greet him. "He did.
Feng Shanhai looked at him and said, "Why is Fellow Daoist Zuo looking like this, but he encountered an accident on the road?"
"Hey." Zuo Zhuzhi dusted off his clothes nonchalantly, "I met a gangster on the way and had a fight."
Everyone had strange expressions on their faces, and Ran Nian also spoke up, "How good is this group of people, yet they have wasted so much time on fellow Taoists."
The route Zuo Zhuzhi got was the closest. It should have taken him one and a half days to get to Lianfang, but it took three days. Ran Nian had doubts in his mind. They were all being hunted to some extent. Which group of people was behind this? .
"One of them is building a foundation. It doesn't look like it's a temporary robbery." Zuo Zhuzhi smiled sheepishly, "It didn't take much time to deal with them. I just accidentally took the wrong path again."
Everyone was speechless. This Zuo Zhuzhi was not an unknown person. He was once on the rookie list. However, his nickname was the magic archer who could get lost. He got lost wherever he went. Later, he disappeared inexplicably for several years. It turned out that I accidentally walked into a natural mysterious forest.
There are natural formations in the Lost Forest, and the geese pass by without leaving any traces. However, it is not a big problem for monks who are good at Bagua. But if it were him, he would be obsessed with it, and in the end he was taken along by a passing monk. from.
A few years are enough time for several geniuses to rise up. Because his strength and cultivation did not improve much during those years in the Lost Forest, he quickly fell out of the rookie foundation building list, and people once thought that he had long been died.
Ran Nian sighed, there was no hope, it was in vain that she arranged the simplest route for him, "When the Zhong family withdraws, we are all here. I went on an adventure with some people before, but unfortunately not many people got out alive. In order not to attract the attention of the Si Xunfu, I came in disguised as a monk or nun this time, and I also asked you to come through a different route. If something unexpected happens, it will be difficult for them to investigate us."
"The token can be tracked by the Si Xun Mansion. Just in case, please leave it to me. I will have people take the token to different places, lest they check on a whim and find us crowded together."
"When you come out of the secret realm, the tokens will be returned to everyone, so don't worry about that."
"In addition, there are several bodyguard uniforms here. In order to avoid being noticed this time, we walked around the lotus in the form of escorts." Ran Nian glanced at everyone, "Do you have any objections?"
The token is a credential that restricts entry and exit. Without the token, they cannot get out. This was an important thing, and many people didn't want to hand it over, but she said it so hard that people couldn't refute it, so they had to say, "I'll just follow the general's orders."
Everyone handed over their tokens, received their clothes, and put them on each other.
The Taoist robes, robes, and lotus crowns were all transformed into a uniform black outfit. An ordinary broadsword and long sword were hung around his waist, and his aura was restrained.
Zhan Changfeng tied up his hair, put on a green jade hairpin, fastened Yunzhong Fan behind his waist, looked at the broadsword and sword on the table, and finally took the sword.
Zhou Yongyuan, who had finished dressing up, looked over and said with a smile, "Isn't my fellow Taoist good at using swords? Why did he hold the sword?"
"Then you must have never seen my battle." Zhan Changfeng hung the Huanshou Sword on his waist, "I often chop and chop, and a thin sword is not suitable for me."
This week, Zhou Yongyuan plotted against her at the Heshui Yingjie Meeting, but there was no obvious malice. It seemed that he just chose to be hostile or close because of interests. He is also a deep-thinking person. Let's treat his idle talk as a test and friendship. .
"I see." Zhou Yongyuan nodded and said to everyone with a smile, "Since we are disguised, we should also change our names. Shall we start calling each other by our names now?"
"This trip, Tang Jinshan is the escort leader, and the rest are escorts. I am the envoy from Fulin'an. I want to bring a relic to Heshan Temple. Since the road is dangerous, I ask you to escort me." Rannian is still the one leading the bhikshuni. From the looks of it, it can be seen that there are already arrangements.
"As for the name, you just need to know it. In addition, the secret realm is on the road to Heshan Temple. We will pass through a special area on the way, and we will change direction there."
After hearing Ran Nian's general plan, everyone set off on the road.
There were a total of fifteen people in this group. Tang Jinshan led the way, followed by Zhan Changfeng and Zuo Zhuzhi. Then Feng Shanhai drove the carriage. Ran Nian sat inside. Next to the carriage were Lin Youxia and Zhou Yongyuan. Behind them were People with three surnames followed in two lines. He left the town so boldly and escorted a fake escort.
Buddhism is the most prosperous in the Lianfang Kingdom. There are often lotus cloud patterns on the boundary monuments and road signs in the courtyards and pavilions. The people of the country are happy and happy. It happened that the old king abdicated some time ago and his son came to the throne. Every household burns incense and worships the Buddha to pray for the peace of the country and the people. On the road, there are often believers and good women carrying yellow flowers on their arms. Budai walked to the temple in groups. Occasionally, when a few saw a bhikshuni riding in the carriage, they would stop and bow to the carriage devoutly.
Zuo Zhuzhi sighed, "People here live too slowly and quietly, and they are boring."
Tang Jinshan, who looked serious, also rarely agreed, "I want to see their pious look, but I don't want to talk to them. It's a different story."
The Buddhist Vow Power Esoteric Sect gathers the power of everyone's vows to save others and save themselves, and advocates liberation in this life. It requires people not to think about anything or do anything. It is like arsenic poison when it is stained with monks like them who seek immortality and their original intention. Either If you want to switch to Buddhism, you should either give your Taoist heart a blow and see if it can stick to you again.
In short, if you can't help it, don't touch it. Everyone knows that if the monk's two lips collide, he may persuade you to put down the butcher's knife.
But Buddhism is not limited to the Vow Power Tantra. For example, the Heart Awakening Tantra only transcends oneself, understands thousands of moods and encounters from the world of mortals, and obtains spiritual liberation and supreme wisdom, allowing all sentient beings to struggle despite the shaking of the mortal world.
Zhan Changfeng is good at learning from hundreds of schools of thought, but she has never liked the Yuanli Tantra. This is probably because the monks of the Yuanli Tantric practice rely on the Yuanli and lack the obsession with self-interest. However, she is willing to let Buddhism go to China in the troubled times. Take a walk around to calm down the mood of the people.
The escort team passed through the mountain road and through the swamp. The number of people became sparse, and the desolate color became closer and closer with the setting sun. At this time, a group of monks came from the opposite side, wearing brown monk robes and carrying backpacks. Their faces were all dark and rough. Carved from the same mold, they lined up in a row, walking silently without looking away.
"Amitabha, are the donors going south?" The leading monk stopped when passing by the escort team, clasped his hands, but did not look at the escort leader, only staring at the people in the carriage.
Ran Nian replied, "It's heading south."
"The road over there is difficult, why not turn around and go back."
"Who the hell, don't block the way." Ding Zhaoqi came up immediately and shouted.
The monk's eyes were calm, "The young monk came from Heshan Temple."
Several people looked at Ran Nian in surprise, while Zhan Changfeng closed his eyes slightly and stared at the monk.
The man in the carriage said, "How can we change the planned itinerary? Let's go."
The escort team continued to move forward, and the monk chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice and led the traveling monks on a long journey.
