It is said that women's thoughts are more delicate than men's. Ximen Mengdie is like this, and Huajiao is not much different.
She only studied with Ximen Mengdie for two days, and she understood what it meant to see the world carefully, which made her very happy. She also understood why Li Xiuyuan was blind, but he could see more carefully than her.
She hasn't started practicing sword practice yet because Li Xiuyuan wants her to learn how to meditate first.
The best way to meditate is to not look at anything, or to see nothing, and the most direct way is to close your eyes and look at everything around you in your heart.
In front of and behind the house, with a piece of cloth covering his face, Huajiao woke up only after imitating the master's example and fetching water and lighting a fire.
Looking at Ximen Mengdie, she said, "Unexpectedly, it turns out that Master's world only has two colors: black and white..."
Ximen Mengdie sat at the table and ate melon seeds. Without raising her head, she just replied: "Master said it doesn't matter whether it's black or white, as long as you see the world clearly."
After thinking for a while, Huajiao asked: "After closing my eyes, if I look more carefully, I find that senior sister's movements seem to have slowed down. Why is this?"
Ximen Mengdie thought about how she learned swordplay from her master in the wine shop. After a moment of silence, she said, "Master said, that's called seeing through. When you fight the enemy desperately..."
After spending a while, Ximen Mengdie explained the rationale to Huajiao.
Huajiao said in a daze: "So, this is called seeing through?"
Ximen Mengdie shook his head and said seriously: "Master said that to see through it depends on your different cultivation levels, different moods, and the strength of your spiritual consciousness. In short, you need to practice regularly."
After hearing what Ximen Mengdie said, Huajiao said quietly, "It seems that Senior Sister is indeed much more powerful than me."
Ximen Mengdie was startled when he heard this, and replied without comment: "Why are you in a hurry? Practice slowly, and you will catch up with me in the future. I am very lazy..."
"In those years when Master was not with me, my mother scolded me for being like a lazy pig every day. Now that I think about it, if I had been with Master all the time, I would definitely be much more powerful than Junior Brother Crow."
Huajiao nodded and couldn't help but ask: "Senior sister, don't be sad... Is Senior Brother Crow very powerful?"
Ximen Mengdie chuckled: "You also saw it when junior brother went through the tribulation. Master said it was the most ferocious guy and dared to fight against God."
Thinking of the crow's appearance that night, Huajiao was so stunned that he couldn't speak.
After all, she had never seen a monk who dared to rush into the void and fight with the sky and the earth during the tribulation. This was not much different from seeking death.
Ximen Mengdie thought for a while, frowned and said, "Don't compare with it. Master said that junior brother is a monster, rare in the world."
Huajiao sighed and replied, "I'm not in a hurry. I'll first learn from my senior sister how to see the world with my heart."
Crow ran back to watch Li Xiuyuan copy Buddhist scriptures, saying that he could sleep well just by reading.
On this day, ten days have passed since Lihua Satisfaction's tragic death.
The falling snow on the mountain has turned the graves of Hua Yiyi and Wen Ziwei white. The foundation of the temple wall has been built and the wall has been built two feet high.
Even the main hall is built almost as high as a person, and several meditation rooms are expected to be completed in less than ten days.
The old man was very satisfied with the progress. Today he asked the butcher selling meat in the market to send 300 kilograms of meat, saying it was to express his condolences to everyone and it would not be included in his wages. ap.
A group of craftsmen also like it very much. It is indeed a beautiful thing to eat a pot of meat and drink a bowl of wine on a snowy day.
The crow stood by the window of the inn, watching, then fell asleep lying on the side.
At this time, two uninvited guests came to Huajiao's house. One was the Wang family from Furong Town. Behind her were two monks in black with long swords on their waists.
There was a sense of vicissitudes of life in the eyes of the two middle-aged men. Although they had an extraordinary aura, they could not hide the murderous aura in their bodies.
In the eyes of the two of them, there are no powerful people in Furong Town. With their cultivation level, they are considered to be top-notch beings.
Therefore, when Mr. Wang asked them to find Huajiao today, they suddenly felt that this was not even a thing.
After hearing what Wang wanted to do, the two men immediately made a deal, and a weak woman was forced to buy the five acres of land with a few silver coins.
Wouldn’t it be nice to save the money and give it to his brother to drink?
Huajiao looked at Mrs. Wang and the two men in black behind her and asked coldly: "What does Aunt Wang want from me?"
Ximen Mengdie sat aside and said nothing, but quietly clenched his fists.
She is not Huajiao, he is Ximen Mengdie, a little princess from the wilderness, a unique little dragon in the sky and on earth. She smells the murderous aura in the two men.
Mrs. Wang explained her purpose of coming and shouted: "Oh, you are not young anymore. I won't treat you badly. I will give you ten silver coins so that you can marry in glory. How about it?"
Huajiao didn't expect that while his brother's body was still cold, the Wang family wanted to take advantage of the situation and came to the house to rob his family's land.
If I was as weak as my brother, wouldn’t I have been manipulated by you today?
She was so angry that she pointed at Mr. Wang and was speechless!
The angry Ximen Mengdie shouted in the living room: "Get out! If you let me see you again, I will break your legs! Tear this woman's mouth to pieces!"
Xiao Die'er is not a peppercorn. She has been holding in her anger since Wanping Town and has nowhere to go.
Unexpectedly, today, Mrs. Wang actually found two thugs to come over and try to rob the pepper fields. It was so lawless that she just yelled and prepared to take action.
When Wang heard this, she became angry.
Pointing at Ximen Mengdie, he cursed: "Whose bastard is this? He dares to come to Furong Town to make trouble. Why don't you ask me? I, Wang, am not someone to be trifled with..."
"Bang!"
"Ah... I'm going to kill someone, Wang Wu, Zhang Hu... kill that little bastard for me..."
Before she could finish her words, she saw Ximen Mengdie sitting in the living room, waving his sleeves, and Wang flew out and fell in the yard. I wonder if he broke any bones.
When Huajiao saw that her senior sister had taken action, she immediately turned around and walked into the house without saying a word, shouting, "Get out of here!"
When the two men in black saw Ximen Mengdie's appearance, they thought that a little girl dared to come to Furong Town to run wild?
Immediately, with a sound of "Crush!", two long swords were unsheathed and struck at Ximen Mengdie in the room!
"Little bastard..."
"Click! Click!" Two voices sounded in the wind!
Before the two men finished cursing, before they rushed into the living room, a sword light shone, and two arms holding swords flew out of the Hua family's courtyard...
Then there were two sounds of "Bah! Bah!". Before the first blood splashed out, the two men had already flown high into the sky and flown out of the Hua family's yard!
"Ah..." It was only then that two shrill screams sounded in the wind!
With a sound of "Boom!", two groups of flames burned outside the courtyard, and two severed arms holding long swords instantly burst into flames.
Ximen Mengdie stepped out of the living room and looked at Wang lying in the snow in the yard.
He shouted coldly: "Tell me, does Hua Yiyi's death have something to do with you? Who sent you to cause trouble for Huajiao? Have you lived enough?"
"ah……"
With a scream, Wang fainted and fell to the ground instantly... She had never seen such a terrifying scene until she was so old.
At that moment, Ximen Mengdie was so frightened that he fainted on the spot.
Ximen Mengdie was so angry that she flew outside the hospital, stepped on a man's chest, and shouted coldly: "Tell me, who asked you to cause trouble?"
The two men were already bleeding like springs. How could they dare to hide it? They all told Wang's bad things at once.
Huajiao was so angry that she turned around and rushed into the yard, picked up Wang and threw her out like a dead chicken.
Looking at the two men, he shouted coldly: "Get out! If you come again, I will chop you with one knife!"
The two men didn't bother to bandage the wound. One of them took one of Wang's hands, as if holding a dead body, and ran wildly into the snow.
Ximen Mengdie looked into the wind, coldly
He said: "Master, someone came to trouble my junior sister. I chopped off their arms."
Li Xiuyuan, who was copying Buddhist scriptures, nodded: "Just chop it off, close the door, and come over for tea!"
The crow lying on the side sighed: "How come I just left and someone who is not afraid of death comes to cause trouble?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled: "The trees want to be quiet but the wind is not stopping, so we will dig more big holes in the mountain and wait for them, so that you and the two junior sisters can make a small fortune."
When the crow heard this, he chuckled and said, "I like it!"
Ximen Mengdie nodded and said to Huajiao: "Senior sister, close the door. Master asked us to go drink tea!" After saying that, he flew out and pulled two space rings from the burning flames.
He threw a piece of Huajiao casually and said with a smile: "Master doesn't allow us to cause trouble, but that doesn't mean we are afraid of trouble."
When Huanjiao heard this, she burst into tears.
After closing the door, he came up and took Ximen Mengdie's hand, walking towards the small street inn and saying, "Okay, we'll be here, waiting for them."
When Hua Jiao and Ximen Mengdie came to the inn, the old man just brought a bowl of meat cooked by the craftsmen.
Smelling the aroma of meat in the room, Xiao Mengdie finally felt a little more comfortable. As soon as she entered the door, she shouted, "Master, do you know that Xiao Die'er was frightened?"
In the little girl's opinion, this should be because the master went to buy meat specifically to praise himself.
The crow chuckled and said, "Senior sister, you guessed wrong. This was bought by senior."
Li Xiuyuan said to the hesitant Huajiao, "Go and ask the inn man to cook a few more dishes, bring back a bowl of rice, and let's have a drink."
Huajiao nodded, turned around and walked out of the living room.
Ximen Mengdie came over and sat down next to him.
Said: "I don't know where the evil woman came from to steal the pepper fields, and she also found two monks to scare them. Xiao Diezuo was frightened and had to cut off their arms."
After speaking, he reached out and grabbed a few melon seeds from in front of the crow and started to eat them. How could he look frightened?
Li Xiuyuan put away the Buddhist scriptures on the table, looked at the old man and said, "Senior, you see, the most terrifying thing is the human heart. Before the dead person can even blink, someone is coming to take advantage of Huajiao."
The old man smiled a little ashamedly and sighed leisurely.
He replied: "My biggest regret in this life is that I have not seen the hearts of the world clearly. I don't want to see strange things that I have never seen in my life in these short days."
Crow looked at Ximen Mengdie and smiled, and said, "It's so disgusting to me. Just now, Uncle Crow, this evil bitch came to trouble Senior Sister."
It was almost noon, and the clanking sound of hammering on the distant hillside had stopped. The craftsmen took a break to eat meat and drink wine, enjoying the warm moment of winter.
Xiao Die'er helped put away the pens, inks, paper and inkstones on the table, and placed a large basin of steaming vegetables brought by the old man.
Huajiao walked in with a bowl of rice, followed by the waiter who served the dishes.
Li Xiuyuan took a jar of small red-brewed osmanthus wine and patted it open gently, and then a strong fragrance of osmanthus came out.
Xiao Die'er cheered: "This is the osmanthus wine brewed by Sister Hong. My mother and I go there every year to drink a few glasses of it."
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly: "So, did your mother give Xiaohong any money?"
When the crow heard this, he chuckled, didn't say anything, just lowered his head and took a sip, and then let out a joyful cry: "I have never drunk this wine."
The old man smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass and said to Huajiao, "Don't be afraid, we are all here."
