Courtyard No. 46 was vacant, so Sanzang stayed here for a while.
The old man even looked at him and said with a smile: "Why don't we turn No. 46 into a Buddhist hall and give it to the monks? No one will come anyway."
Whether it was Shuzi, Xiaohu, or the three Xiaohei who left with the Immortal Emperor.
I am afraid that in the years and months to come, I will never return to Datang again.
According to Li Xiuyuan's temperament, he would definitely not sell it. After much deliberation, he might as well give it to the monk, who happened to have a good relationship with Li Xiuyuan.
Li Xiuyuan did not agree, but replied: "If after spring, Jue'er takes the maids from the palace back to the imperial city, where will they live?"
Just one sentence broke the old man's mind.
Because Li Xiuyuan knew that even Sanzang wouldn't be able to stay in the imperial city for long.
Waiting for the day when the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has a whim, he will think of the Xuanwu Gate and want to find an eminent monk to complete his self-harm and salvation.
After Sanzang chatted with Li Xiuyuan about the physical eye, the Buddha's eye, and the mind's eye.
I felt like I was lost in the world Li Xiuyuan mentioned.
So much so that Tripitaka, who clearly had no spiritual consciousness, expected to use his incomparable will to try to open his Buddha's eyes.
Until Li Xiuyuan told him that he had missed the age of the Heavenly Eye. If he wanted to cultivate the Buddha's Eye, he had to start with the Wisdom Eye.
Sanzang temporarily gave up cultivating his Buddha Eye.
Instead, focus on the practice of the eye of wisdom.
So, these days, he felt like he was trapped in a fantasy.
And Sanzang in the illusion even has a subconscious feeling that there is a kind of person who has a small courtyard at No. 46 in the Imperial City, and his soul has flown to the temple under the snow-capped mountains.
Looking at the monks sitting in the main hall and chanting scriptures, I didn't know where I was for a moment.
These days Sanzang blindfolds himself, just like Li Xiuyuan was blind when he was blind, trying to use his own consciousness to distinguish everything in front of him.
Close your eyes, and the bizarre world is no longer in front of you.
Three feet ago, after Sanzang spent countless days thinking about it, he could finally see a slightly blurry black and white.
The old man was shocked when he saw that the blindfolded Sanzang could walk, eat and drink tea.
In the eyes of the old man, Sanzang was one of the most talented people.
It only took less than five days to be able to distinguish the real and fake world in front of me with my eyes covered and with my weak consciousness.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the old man and said, "The monk is practicing his wisdom because he has bodhicitta."
The old man sighed: "It's scary that only people with profound Buddhist teachings like monks can get out of their own illusions and see the world in front of them clearly."
Sometimes how strong a person's desire is, how deep the illusion will be.
Although the old man did not practice Buddhism, he understood this truth.
No matter who it is, if they cannot get out of the illusion they have woven, they will be completely immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves.
And the illusion will affect a monk's life.
However, Li Xiuyuan in front of him didn't want to change everything about Sanzang. He didn't even take out the Buddhist scriptures he copied and share them with Sanzang.
In his opinion, Tripitaka's path lies at his feet, in the distant world in the west.
"Ding dong" sounded.
But it was Li Xiuyuan who couldn't help but play the piano to add to the fun after seeing Sanzang begin to practice his wisdom.
In the quiet backyard, it turned out that there was only the sound of the whistling wind and the sound of falling snow.
However, there was an additional sound of strings in the wind and snow, which made Sanzang, who was sitting in meditation, couldn't help but cheer and applaud the sudden sound of the piano.
Sanzang, who was traveling in the Tang Dynasty, also heard artists playing the piano and singing in the world.
But when a faint sound of the piano sounded in the wind and rain, and reached the ears of Tripitaka who was blindfolded and could not see the world clearly, he saw a light in the distance like a person in the dark night.
"It has no color, no scent, no scent, no touch, and the sound of the piano would make even a Buddha happy."
Step by step out of the room, Sanzang headed towards the small courtyard No. 47.
At present, he has thrown away the bamboo branches that Li Xiuyuan broke off for him. Although his steps are slow, he is no longer floating, and every step is extremely solid.
"What a beautiful piece of music. Where did this girl come from to play it?"
Putting away the oil-paper umbrella in her hand, Qin Xiangyu walked in and put her white cloak on the table under the eaves, feeling extremely emotional for a moment.
Looking at the old man, he said: "I have learned piano music for a few days, but I didn't expect there to be a girl who is better than me."
The old man had a weird smile on his face, shook his head, pointed to the living room and said, "You go in and chat with him, and I'll go outside and look at the store for a while."
When Qin Xiangyu entered the living room, his expression changed when he saw the scene in front of him.
I cried out in my heart, you monster, why don’t you let others live?
After drinking Xinghua Spirit Wine, she knew that the young shopkeeper was a terrible guy.
After reading the words "Xianlai Wine Shop", I understood that the young man was not an ordinary person. It was not until he saw Li Xiuyuan playing the piano that he sighed that this was a rare monster in the world.
Not to mention, sitting in front of Li Xiuyuan was a young monk who was blindfolded and soaked in Buddha's light, making people feel respectful.
Clapping his hands, Qin Xiangyu sighed: "This... how is this possible... If you continue like this, you won't let anyone live!"
Hearing Qin Xiangyu's voice, Sanzang smiled slightly.
"No need to be polite, monk, this is shopkeeper Qin who is building an inn opposite me."
Holding the strings gently with both hands, Li Xiuyuan moved the piano stand in front of him to the bookshelf not far behind him.
Looking at Qin Xiangyu, he asked, "I haven't seen you for a long time. How is Shopkeeper Qin always doing?"
Qin Xiangyu sat down next to the table and smiled faintly: "Still alive... Where did the monk come from? How could he know this monster-like shopkeeper?"
"I come from a monastery under the snow-capped mountains."
The blindfolded Sanzang said quietly: "In my opinion, Donor Li should be able to be the monk's three teachers."
The clever Sanzang did not fully answer Qin Xiangyu's question, but revealed his admiration without reservation.
In his heart, he was afraid that the Li Xiuyuan in front of him could not be measured by the age he saw.
Just as Li Xiuyuan told him, look at the world with your heart.
Everything the eyes see may not be real.
"How do you say this?"
Qin Xiangyu picked up the hot tea that Li Xiuyuan poured for her and said calmly: "Tell me, how can this little shopkeeper be your three teachers, monk!"
"Alas!" Monk Sanzang replied: "He can be my teacher in Buddhism; the monk likes to drink wine, which cannot produce the taste of apricot blossoms; the monk cannot even play a song of "Breeze and Flow in the Mountains" in front of the Buddha. The creek..."
Sanzang smiled faintly: "This is just what I saw. If the benefactor is like the cold plum blossoms on the snow-capped mountains, I'm afraid the monk will really be beyond his reach."
When Qin Xiangyu heard this, he couldn't help but nodded gently.
Just as what the monk said, weren't they what she was thinking?
"Are you?"
After taking a sip of the spiritual tea, Qin Xiangyu smiled, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said, "It seems that your place is indeed a treasure place that allows you to meet such an interesting monk."
After saying that, he tilted his head, looked at Sanzang and said, "My name is Qin Xiangyu, the shopkeeper of the Hongchen Inn in front of me. Monk, can you tell me your Buddhist name?"
Sanzang was stunned for a moment. All he could see with his eyes covered was a blurry black and white man. He even tried to nod towards Li Xiuyuan.
Seeing that Li Xiuyuan didn't say anything, he replied: "My Buddhist name is Tripitaka, and the name of the inn, the donor, is quite interesting."
I kept mumbling for a long time, but I was thinking about the whole Tang Dynasty, and I was afraid that I couldn't find another inn called Hongchen.
Qin Xiangyu squinted his eyes and suddenly said: "Little shopkeeper, I like your courtyard. How about you transfer the one next door to me and I pay you more?"
Li Xiuyuan was smiling bitterly in his heart.
I thought that my old man had previously thought of giving No. 46 to a monk as a Buddhist temple, but he never thought that Qin Xiangyu would come immediately and want to buy it and live in it.
He wanted to refuse, but when he raised his head, he saw Sanzang's eyes covered.
I couldn't help but feel soft in my heart, thinking about all the hardships this guy would have to go through in the coming years, and I couldn't help but sigh softly.
Said: "I can sell it to you, there is only one condition."
"Tell me what you want!"
Qin Xiangyu was stunned. He didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan was so easy to talk to today. He nodded and agreed without thinking.
If you can buy No. 46 and live in it yourself, you just need to simply decorate it and add some furniture, and it will be a good place that you can't find again in the imperial city.
She was only one step away from the inn, and the noise in the inn could not disturb her. At this moment, her heart moved.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, pointed to the courtyard wall leading to No. 46 outside the living room and said, "Open the door in front and block this door with bluestone..."
When Qin Xiangyu heard this, he couldn't help but look at Li Xiuyuan with contempt.
He chuckled: "So you are afraid that I will disturb your peace. Don't worry, I will not take the initiative to disturb your practice without your invitation in the future."
"This gate is simple. I will hire workers to renovate it tomorrow. Tell me, what else do you want?"
In order to show his magnanimity, Qin Xiangyu waved his hand: "I will satisfy your request."
Sanzang was stunned when he heard this, thinking that this guy was a good guy, why did he sell his home? This...he couldn't understand it for a moment and was a little confused.
Li Xiuyuan poured hot tea for the three of them and continued: "You can't move in before the monk leaves. The yard will be converted into gold coins and all given to the monk..."
Sanzang was startled when he heard this and quickly shook his head: "Donor, are you trying to harm Sanzang and make me infected with the three poisons?"
"I...I'm saving your travel expenses."
Li Xiuyuan sighed, looked at him and said seriously: "The place you are going to is too far and too difficult. I'm afraid even the emperor's support won't be enough..."
He didn't say a word. After being there for more than ten years, it was a golden mountain, which was not enough to cover Tripitaka's expenses on the road.
However, there was no last moment, and he didn't want to point it out at this time.
Qin Xiangyu was also greatly surprised. She did not expect that the young shopkeeper in front of her would give the valuable No. 46 to the blind monk in front of her with a wave of his hand.
Seeing the monk's excitement, Qin Xiangyu couldn't help but ask: "Where does the monk want to go and need such a large sum of money?"
Without waiting for Sanzang to answer, Li Xiuyuan said first: "This is the monk's dream, and naturally it is on the way to the dream..."
Seeing Li Xiuyuan's answer, Qin Xiangyu didn't hesitate to ask more questions, so he could only nodded: "Deal."
Li Xiuyuan then continued with Sanzang: "Monk, if you don't have the three poisons in your heart, why are you afraid that the three poisons will disturb your peace?"
"When you are away from home, you can't go begging for alms every day. You only have two things to do, and that is to cultivate your mind and hurry. You can't let a penny stop you halfway..."
He clapped his hands and said with a smile: "I will not bring the wealth of this world with me when I am alive, and I will not take it away until I die..."
Sanzang sighed for a long time after hearing this. After a long while, he could only hold back one sentence: "Almsgiver is merciful."
Qin Xiangyu saw that a big trouble was solved, thinking that he would not have to stay in an inn in the future, and he was in a good mood for a while.
He patted the table gently, looked at Li Xiuyuan and laughed: "Well, have three glasses of wine, and I'll tell you a story."
