At this moment, Ximen Mengdie in his dream was grinding his teeth and talking in his sleep: "Master, don't abandon Xiaodie'er."
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, his heart felt like being pricked by needles. He supported the stone platform with one hand and covered his chest with the other. He was speechless for a long time.
The crow in the dream also roared a few times, wondering who it was quarreling with.
After a while, Li Xiuyuan picked up the cold spirit tea in front of him, took a silent sip, and then drank two cups in a row.
The woman quietly stared at the young man in front of her. It was Li Xiuyuan whose face was covered with black cloth, which could not hide his painful emotions at this moment.
Just like this, a quarter of an hour passed, or even longer.
The woman sighed softly and said, "It turns out that happiness in the world is different, only pain is the same."
Sighing softly, Li Xiuyuan had nowhere to vent his depression, so he waved his hand and shot out a burst of sword energy to disperse the night fog spreading around him.
Then he reached behind himself, picked up a few branches, and threw them into the fire in front of him.
As the flame rose, it instantly illuminated the three feet in front of him, and also illuminated the woman's frowning face.
Silently watching Li Xiuyuan's every move, the woman said after a moment, "Are you going to Furong Town?"
Carrying the kettle holder and putting it on the fire, Li Xiuyuan's mood slowly calmed down.
After thinking for a while, he replied: "I was just passing by this place and that small town. Where to go, I don't have a clear place yet."
The woman sighed and seemed not to care where Li Xiuyuan and others were going. What she cared about at the moment was just this mountain forest hidden in the dark night.
He stared blankly at the mountains and forests in front of him, as if he was possessed by a demon. I don't know how long it took until Li Xiuyuan's new spiritual tea wafted out with a faint fragrance of tea.
She just said in a low voice: "There are always some things that people can't do anything about..."
The surroundings were so quiet that you could hear the drop of a pin. Even the night bird that had called from time to time did not know where to hide.
Li Xiuyuan no longer thought about the past, stretched out his hand to add a new cup of spiritual tea to the woman, took a sip himself, and then recited Buddhist scriptures in a low voice.
"An unspeakable long time ago, an unspeakable eon ago..."
His heart was even more chaotic than the woman's at the moment, like a mess that he couldn't explain and couldn't sort out. He could only chant Buddhist scriptures softly to gently sort himself out from the sadness of the past.
The woman saw Li Xiuyuan's frown gradually loosen as he softly recited Buddhist scriptures, so as not to disturb his practice any more.
He held a cup of spiritual tea and drank it in one sip, then lowered his eyes and looked for the good times in the past in his dreams.
A ray of moonlight in the night sky dimly illuminated this mountain forest, and also illuminated the people in front of them.
The green dragon in the dream turned over. He dreamed that he had transformed one day and was under a thunderstorm. He couldn't help but struggle and murmured a few words.
A beam of Buddha's light spread from Li Xiuyuan's side, and finally enveloped Xiaomengdie, crow and green dragon.
The faint Buddha's light, like the moon falling in the sky, gently soothes Qingjiao's frightened heart.
Deep in the forest, the old man sat on the ground. Looking at the Buddha's light gradually rising into the sky in the distance, he couldn't help but clasping his hands together and muttering a Buddha's name.
This day and night was a bad experience for Li Xiuyuan.
Because he doesn't want others to walk into his story, and he also doesn't want to shed tears in other people's stories.
The past has been lost.
The future is being lost, and he wants to forget some of the things that made him sad.
In the early morning, Ximen Mengdie woke up from his dream and was thirsty. He rushed to the stone platform and drank a pot of herbal tea.
Suddenly I saw a crescent-shaped jade pendant. I felt an inexplicable impulse in my heart and stretched out my little hand to play with it.
Unexpectedly, the sound of "Buzz!" shone brightly, and the jade pendant flashed with a red light, instantly rushing into her divine sea, causing her to scream in fright.
Looking at Li Xiuyuan in front of him, he shouted: "Master is not good, this
The jade pendant is a monster that has got into Dieer's body. "
Li Xiuyuan paused and did not immediately reply to Ximen Mengdie's words. Instead, he said quietly: "Senior, do you insist on having a cause and effect with my master and disciple?"
Not far away, the awakened Qingjiao had been silently watching the scene happening in front of him without making a sound.
Because she knew that for a Buddhist monk like Li Xiuyuan, a jade pendant could not solve any trouble for the master and the disciple.
We can only do what Li Xiuyuan said, let the master and the disciple be connected with the woman in front of them.
Even without being born, Qingjiao still understands the principle of cause and effect.
After seeing Li Xiuyuan's decision, she became even more determined. If she joins the world in the future, she will never get into trouble with others easily.
The crow was also quietly watching the senior sister in a daze on the tree. It didn't know what to do?
But it knew that any trouble Li Xiuyuan didn't want to get into was something he had to pay attention to, so it looked at the smiling woman warily.
The woman slowly turned around and looked at the master and apprentice in front of her, her eyes as deep as gems filled with a mysterious light.
He said: "After this separation, we still don't know if we can meet again. Even if there is cause and effect, we won't fly to find you, right?"
Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan took Ximen Mengdie's hand and quietly checked for her.
It wasn't until she found the crescent-like jade pendant hanging quietly above her divine sea that she sighed softly.
I just thought that even if you could absorb the evil spirit in the divine sea and refine it, what about the demonic blood all over her body? Naturally, he couldn't admit this kind of cause and effect, because he had already returned the jade pendant to the woman yesterday.
The woman deliberately placed it on the stone platform, hoping that Xiao Mengdie, who had gotten up early, would pick it up and play with it out of curiosity. This was a forceful attempt to establish a cause and effect with herself.
It was only then that he remembered what his master had told him back then, and he couldn't help but laugh coldly in his heart.
If you want to plot against me, you haven't seen enough.
At worst, when we meet the master, let him take out this jade pendant from Ximen Mengdie's body.
If you want beautiful jade, will the old Taoist priest know it?
After all, Ximen Mengdie is also Master's disciple. As long as he asks, Master cannot refuse this small request.
So, he quietly replied: "This cause and effect is not what we want. If senior insists on saying that there is, then I will return this jade pendant to senior at the appropriate time."
Upon hearing this, Qingjiao nodded silently.
Her thoughts were exactly what she thought, no reward for no merit... Not to mention, the young man in front of her taught her Buddhist scriptures, and a cup of spiritual tea made him turn into a dragon...
From beginning to end, not even a single elixir was spoken to her.
And the woman in front of her wanted to give Ximen Mengdie a piece of jade pendant just because the young man turned around and gave way.
If it had been anyone else, I'm afraid it would be fine.
Only Qingjiao knew in his heart that the young man in front of him was not such a person, and he was afraid that the young man would fail his inner plan...
Seeing that he seemed to be in trouble, Ximen Mengdie immediately pulled Li Xiuyuan and said, "If the master doesn't like it, let him take it out when he sees the master and give it back to this senior..."
Ximen Mengdie knew that she could take whatever belonged to her master, but not others.
This is what Huangfu Qingmei taught her since she was a child. In the little girl's heart, the master is her relative, but the woman in front of her is clearly an outsider she meets on the road.
The woman sighed, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said, "This jade pendant was transformed from an ancient strange beast. It contains the purest yang energy in the world and can help this little girl refine the evil energy."
Sighing, the woman continued: "When my son left, he left me nothing, but this jade pendant from the Alien Beast Transformation Center has been with me for many years..."
"It's just that when I look at this jade pendant, I will think of my dead son... Therefore, I also love and hate this jade pendant..."
At this point, the woman's voice trembled slightly, and her chest heaved under the excitement.
.
Even so, Li Xiuyuan was still calm because he couldn't see the woman's expression.
Ximen Mengdie waved and asked Crow to accompany her to the mountain spring to wash up.
Today, she knew that the master would never look back. They would step out of this mountain, leave the green dragon, and leave this woman.
Even if it is taken out, it will be a matter of the future.
Qingjiao sighed and said something to Li Xiuyuan from a distance. Li Xiuyuan sighed.
He murmured back: "In this case, I will read it to you again, hoping that you can hear it and transform into another form."
After saying that, regardless of the intentions of the woman in front of him, he read the scroll of scripture again for Qingjiao and for the creatures in this mountain forest.
He made a decision in his heart and looked back two days in a row. Today, he would not give way again.
Whether it's human beings or gods, even the monsters and ghosts in the mountains and forests have to make way for him.
Sighing deeply, Li Xiuyuan began to chant: "This is what I hear..."
The green dragon sitting cross-legged on the ground chanted: "This is what I heard..."
The woman was stunned and couldn't help but said: "So...I hear..."
On this day, Li Xiuyuan was a little later than yesterday because he had to chant sutras for the green dragon for the last time.
It wasn't until the end of the hour that I was ready to leave.
At this time, the crow had already flown back and forth on the ten-mile long stone path, croaking and saying: "There is not even a ghost. If there is one again after a while, it will be a monster!"
Nodding, Li Xiuyuan stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his clothes.
He said to Qingjiao who was not far away: "You may still not be able to fully understand the principles in the Buddhist scriptures. It doesn't matter. You read and recite the scriptures twice a day and the scriptures will be imprinted in your flesh and blood."
Qingjiao nodded and replied faintly: "Sir, it's a good journey. If God is kind, we will meet again one day."
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly: "Then you have to ask God."
After saying that, he clasped hands with the woman and said, "Senior, take care of me. The Buddha said that leaving is to remember, to stop thinking... If you are thinking about that jade pendant in your heart, I will find a way to come back to you after I meet the master."
The woman looked at him with deep disappointment in her eyes.
After a while, he let out a wry smile and murmured: "It's just a jade pendant. You don't have to worry about it so much. We'll meet again by fate."
After saying that, the woman also stood up, waved her hand, and walked towards the mountains.
The woman in Li Xiuyuan's eyes was still just a black and white image. Seeing her heading towards the mountains, he couldn't say anything, but the green dragon not far away waved his hand.
The crow said "Swish!" and flew onto his shoulder.
Ximen Mengdie came over and took Li Xiuyuan's hand, waved to Qingjiao and said, "Goodbye, sister. After you transform, go to the outside world to find Xiaodie'er."
Qingjiao nodded and replied: "Xiao Die'er, follow your master closely, don't let the bad guys deceive you."
Xiao Die'er raised her head and glanced at Li Xiuyuan, grinning: "That's impossible."
Li Xiuyuan did not look back. Xiao Ling'er held the master's hand and could not see the expression on Li Xiuyuan's face at this time.
Holding the green dragon, he was like a lost person walking in the dark night. He asked in a daze: "Excuse me, sir, what is falsehood?"
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he couldn't help but smile lightly: "The woman who left before me, you helplessly watched Xiao Mengdie, me and Crow leave. To you, it's all nonsense..."
Qingjiao was stunned and blurted out: "So, the wind, frost, rain and snow in the mountains, the flowers blooming and withering, aren't they all false?"
Li Xiuyuan did not stop and continued to move forward: "As far as Tiandao is concerned, you are right..."
Silently, the green dragon looked at the mysterious path in front of him, swallowing up the figures of Li Xiuyuan and the others.
Thinking about these words in my heart, I couldn't help but sigh quietly.
