"Looking at the gate? What is looking at the gate? Do you want to see the gate of my house?" Zhang Yaoqing tirelessly discussed the issue of the gate of Yuqing Temple with Monk Jianglong. Master Yuqing's voice suddenly came from the temple, "Yao Qing is not allowed to mess around! Invite the guests to sit in the main hall, and you go prepare tea. Go quickly!"
"Yes, Master." Zhang Yaoqing took two steps, then turned around and asked, "You said it was entrusted by the donor Lu Yuan, who is Lu Yuan?"
"He should be the female benefactor's master."
*****
"Are you really him... the incarnation of Lu Yuan? How did you end up like this?" Seeing Monk Jianglong's body and face covered with mud, Master Yuqing tried hard not to laugh. asked.
But there was a smile on her brows and she couldn't hide it no matter what. When Jianglong talked about his clone outside the temple, she suddenly realized after hearing it through the wall! Yes, that guy has many clones moving around, and the clones are related to the life of the main body - she doesn't know about the other clones, but Lu Lingmeng of Emei is the most cherished child of Emei! If she dies suddenly, the whole of Emei will be in turmoil! Emei seems to be in trouble now. Obviously Lu Lingmeng is living well in Ningcuiya, and Lu Yuan is naturally fine too!
After figuring it out, Yu Qing secretly scolded herself for being too stupid. But he didn't know that caring about everything would lead to chaos. After hearing the news, Yuqing was so confused that there was so much she could think about.
"Master Yuqing, please know that I am no longer the clone of Lu Yuan's benefactor. This body is just the Dragon Subduing." Monk Subduing the Dragon said with his hands clasped together. As for why it was so embarrassing, Jianglong was speechless. "Donor Lu said that Lao Na's body exists in Yuqing Temple in Chengdu, but for some reason, it was actually buried in the peach blossom forest at the foot of the mountain. Not to mention it was buried several meters underground, and there were many seals added to it. In order to get out, Lao Na was really crippled. It takes less effort. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have found Yuqing Temple today to report that we are safe.”
Yuqing opened her mouth slightly, and suddenly remembered the coffin she found when clearing the rubble after Lu Yuan's house was demolished by Qi Lingyun - at that time, Yuqing thought it was Lu Yuan who had sealed something evil. So she added a few more seals on it, and then quietly buried it in the peach blossom forest...
"Yes. In fact, the feng shui there is pretty good, hahaha~" Yuqing laughed dryly, remembering that when she buried it, she even pressed a few huge rocks on it... She decided to change the topic immediately. "Lu...didn't that guy ask Master Jianglong to send any letter? Even just a few words."
"That's true." Jiang Long took out a pocket, took out a piece of paper, and looked at it carefully. Now that he and Lu Yuan were completely separated, all the memories belonging to Lu Yuan were naturally taken back. Moreover, sensitive information about the Dawn, the Lord God, world travel, etc. cannot be retained, so there are many things about Monk Jianglong that we no longer know as well as we did in the past. But this was also due to Jianglong's own request. He wanted to live for once without any regrets, and Lu Yuan took it upon himself to do so.
"Donor Lu told me that this treasure is a fire. Please forgive me for being stupid and unable to understand it." Master Yuqing also practiced the "Heart Like the Heart Sutra", but she has not yet found a lamp-like magic weapon that can be used to practice the Heart Sutra, so Not much progress. As soon as she heard that Lu Yuan had prepared it for her, she immediately took it over happily.
I saw that the treasure was a shiny silver flat piece, only three fingers wide, small and exquisite. The surface of the treasure is engraved with arabesques in relief, and an orange-red gemstone is set in the middle. Exquisitely clear, no impurities visible! The gemstone was polished on both sides and was not an ordinary thing. A slight touch of fingers. You can feel the raging flames inside.
Yuqing looked through it for a long time before finding a barely visible gap and a sand-like non-slip surface in one third of the flat piece.
"Do you want to open it from here?" she said hesitantly.
Perhaps modern people will understand at a glance that it is a windproof lighter... But Lu Yuan's materials are super high-end. The shell is forged from the mithril alloy from the Dawn, supplemented by a magic circle engraved with hundreds of layers. The sun gem unique to the world of Riel uses crystallized energy inside to ensure that it can burn continuously for five hundred years without having to replace the "battery".
"Bah!" As Yuqing's real jade fingers pressed hard on the anti-slip area. The upper part of the lighter popped open crisply, and a few inches of orange-red flame lit up on the wick. See the flames. The two people who had practiced the "Heart Like Heart Sutra" were immediately shocked! "This, this. Is this...the real sun and fire?!" Yuqing stuttered and didn't know what to say. The Jianglong monk, Shangmu, nodded blankly, obviously a little at a loss when seeing the legendary thing appear in front of him.
It is said that things like the true fire of the sun can only be considered real if they were obtained during the nine-day sky in ancient times. Later, the true sun fire was collected by practitioners from the sun's rays. It was only slightly stronger than ordinary flames and was not considered the true sun fire. But the flame in front of me is stable and has an overriding heat. It is clearly the purest true fire of the sun! Not to mention the ordinary sun's real fire, it may be far superior to ancient times, and I don't know where Lu Yuan got it from...
How should I put it, the process for Lu Yuan to obtain the so-called "True Sun Fire" was not easy. In a world without demons, there would be only nuclear fusion inside the star, and the resulting decay, radiation, and other derivative reactions; but in a world with high demons, the core of the star is indeed somewhat different. "City of Dawn" has only recently been able to deeply explore the core of stars - and extracting the conceptual "True Sun Fire" and storing it in the Sun Gem is just one of the by-products of this exploration.
"Congratulations to Master Yuqing. With the help of this magical object, I believe that practicing the Heart Sutra will be able to get twice the result with half the effort." Monk Jianglong congratulated sincerely. Yuqing quickly put the lighter close to her body, feeling so bright! When I think of myself, Yuqing, in the future, when I am wiping out the demons, I will first fire up the windproof lighter with a "bang" sound, and then unleash a long dragon of true sun fire. Thinking about that scene is very cool!
"Master, Master, Master, have you prepared a gift for me?" Zhang Yaoqing, who had been standing next to him, had been looking at it eagerly for a long time. After finally waiting for the master to put away the coveted beautiful treasure, she tugged on the master's sleeves and acted coquettishly, but her eyes were fixed on the bag in Jianglong's hand.
"This," Yu Qing looked at Monk Jianglong with some confusion. Lu Yuan just said it so casually, who knows if he took it to heart. If it were taken as a joke on children, wouldn't it make the little disciple very disappointed? What she meant by Jiang Long was, if not, just pick up something and give it to her first, and you will make up for it later.
"Of course." Jianglong put his hand into the bag and fumbled around a few times before taking out a small black cat statue. "But this is a puppet, and it needs the little donor's blood to recognize its master."
Before Yu Qing could object, Zhang Yaoqing jumped over and almost grabbed the small cat statue. "I'm not afraid of pain, I'm not afraid of pain." She said, using her sword to make a small cut on her finger, and then squeezed the blood droplets onto the forehead of the statue. Yuqing sighed and closed his mouth. The young disciple is too reckless, but Lu Yuan's gift should not harm anyone.
After the blood seeped into the statue, a small plume of smoke rose around the cat statue, wrapping the statue. A moment later, a palm-sized kitten suddenly jumped out of the smoke and jumped onto Zhang Yaoqing's shoulder. She sniffed the little girl's cheek, and meowed in confusion and happiness, "Nini?"
"Ah~! Ah! Ah!! So cute, so cute!" Zhang Yaoqing kept screaming, as happy as if she was going crazy, and ran out with the little black cat in her hands.
Lu Yuan's contracted pet, the little black cat Nini, has not appeared for a long time.
Before, it was because Ah Fu fell into a deep sleep, and Nini had to guard her father and not leave. Later, the world Lu Yuan ventured into became increasingly dangerous and no longer suitable for little cats to go to. Therefore, Lu Yuan used a specific method to terminate the soul contract with Nini. Now Mu Xing and Mu Xing have completely separated into two people. Mu Xing continues to preside over scientific research work in the Dawn Fortress, while Mu Xing takes the awakened black panther Afu to the new world of Toril to start her new adventure. .
Lu Yuan was worried that Nini, the kitten, would be too lonely as a cat by herself, and had been thinking of finding a new playmate for her. The scene when Zhang Yaoqing stood in front of Lu Lingmeng impressed him deeply, so he entrusted Nini to her. In this world, Nini is just attaching her soul to a magical creature. Whether she is injured or the puppet is destroyed, it will not hurt her, which is the best way to play. And even though Nini is small, her strength is not weaker than many monsters.
Handing Nini over to Zhang Yaoqing had another purpose.
Lu Yuan and Yuqing are both old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years. Yuqing Temple is located in a remote place and has not been seen all year round. Lu Yuan and Yu Qing both felt good about such a lonely environment. Because they have experienced prosperity, they can naturally enjoy tranquility. But an underage girl lives in this kind of environment, with no friends or peers, and a master who is so lonely that he doesn't say a word all day long. How lonely!
With Nini, a cat who is as smart as ordinary people, by his side, he will surely have a happy and healthy childhood.
"This crazy girl made everyone laugh." Yuqing held her forehead.
The monk hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Monk Jianglong promised Lu Shi to guard the gate of Yuqing Temple for ten years. From now on, he will be just a gatekeeper. The real person calls me Jianglong..." Yuqing has already seen that whether it is the Heart Sutra of Jianglong Arhat, Neither Taoism nor cultivation is inferior to hers. Her understanding of Buddhism is probably far above hers! Lu Yuan asked him to guard the door, probably to protect the safety of his master and disciple. How could he call him by his first name.
In the end, they argued for a long time. Both of them were very stubborn and could only do their own thing. Hearing the little disciple shouting outside the window, both of them smiled happily. It seemed... that he had no intention of continuing the argument.
I just don’t know where that “heartless guy” is now, or has he hooked up with someone else’s girl?
