On the first day Qingfeng came to the temple, Li Xiuyuan did not talk to him about Buddhism, but told him about the visit of the three Duanmu family members.
Duanmu Qingfeng was speechless for a long time after hearing this.
After a long time, until Huajiao called out that it was time to eat, he replied to Li Xiuyuan: "Duanmu Wuhui is my father. Qingfeng would like to thank you sir for your kindness on behalf of my father."
With a faint smile, Li Xiuyuan did not ask Qingfeng to enter Buddhism because he left the son of a noble family to do nothing.
After having dinner quietly, he asked the old man to take him down the mountain. Before entering the temple, he lived with the old man at the foot of the mountain.
There were some things on the mountain that he didn't have the strength to answer for Qingfeng one by one. It happened that the old man needed a helper in the future.
It was said that letting the old man take on another apprentice was a good thing in his opinion.
Similarly, he did not ask Helian Ruoxue why he followed Qingfeng all the way to Furong Town in the far north when he was not a good princess.
With his unintentional infatuation and determination with Jasmine, he could understand even the most bizarre woman in the world.
After drinking two courses of tea, Li Xiuyuan asked Huajiao to take Helian Ruoxue to rest, but left Xiaodie'er and Crow in the living room.
It was only then that Xiao Die'er grinned and took out the two huge dragon heads.
The living room was too small, so she had to put it in the yard and took out the huge dragon claws that were not eaten.
Taking Li Xiuyuan's hand, he said proudly: "Master, Xiaodie'er and my junior brother killed two dragons together."
Crow chuckled: "Master, take a closer look. Is the senior sister more powerful than when she went out?"
Li Xiuyuan's eyes turned red, and he held Xiaodie'er's hand and was speechless for a long time. It was not until he put away everything on the ground that he took Xiaodie'er's hand and returned to the living room.
He sighed leisurely: "From now on, I won't take risks anymore. You don't need to practice any kind of cultivation on this journey to heaven. You have to cultivate your mind."
Ever since the three people from the Duanmu family came to Yunqi Temple, Li Xiuyuan has been worried about Xiao Die'er, fearing that she would be in danger outside.
It wasn't until Ksitigarbha told him that Xiaodie'er and the other three had another chance that his hanging heart relaxed.
Then he touched the crow's head and said with a smile: "We will face the danger together, there is no need for you to fight desperately."
Crow's eyes turned red, and he said, "Master, I don't know, but Crow and Senior Sister almost died outside. This time, they encountered two different secret realms."
Xiao Die'er nodded, sighed and said, "Master, this time our story could last for three days and three nights, and we still wouldn't be able to finish it."
After speaking, he took out a bright bead and placed it on the table.
He said with a proud smile: "Xiaodie'er originally had two dragon beads like this. The first one was given to Pianpian sister of Donghai in Fushan."
"I'm talking about Ximen Lone Star, Huangfu Qingmei, you two idiots."
Li Xiuyuan pinched the dragon ball in his hand and couldn't help but cursed: "You parents are not as good as your own daughters. If I let you know about this, will you be mad to death?"
Xiaodie'er was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "No, no, my parents are also very powerful, Xiaodie'er is just luckier."
Li Xiuyuan sighed, held the bead in his hand and touched her head with a smile: "Come, let me refine this bead for you, and you will be a divine dragon from now on."
"Master, wait a minute, this bead is for you."
After Xiaodie'er finished speaking, she took out another golden dragon ball and placed it in front of Li Xiuyuan.
Looking at him, he said quietly: "This is what Xiaodie'er met Grandpa Long in the secret realm of Wanren Mountain, in the underground palace, and he gave it to me."
"This is Xiaodie'er's treasure. Grandpa said that the master would refine it for me so that I can practice slowly in the future."
After speaking, he spent a while and told Li Xiuyuan the scene that happened in the underground palace.
Hearing Li Xiuyuan exclaim that it is impossible, things in the world are so magical, and an immortal dragon soul gave his treasure to Xiaodie'er just for the sake of reincarnation.
Touching Xiaodie'er's head, Li Xiuyuan shook his head: "It's too dangerous. The old man might just have a thought and take away your body."
But at this time, the crow couldn't hold on any longer and lay aside, snoring and dreaming.
Xiao Die'er sighed, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said seriously: "On the way back, Xiao Die'er met the law enforcement elder of the Zoroastrian Cult, and his spirit entered Xiao Die'er's divine sea."
Li Xiuyuan was shocked when he heard this and squeezed Xiaodie'er's hand again.
Looking at the night sky outside the living room, he asked blankly: "Bodhisattva, is Xiaodie'er my disciple? Or is it the devil?"
Jizo, who originally didn't want to pay attention to him, sighed quietly and replied: "Of course he is your precious disciple. The old man's soul has turned into the nourishment of the little girl. Don't bother me."
Li Xiuyuan was stunned and thought, I still have something to say, are you leaving now?
After all, a Qingfeng from the Duanmu family came here today, a monk picked up by Crow Crow and Xiaodieer on the way, and he wanted to seek the Bodhisattva's opinion.
Unexpectedly, this guy waved his hand and left.
Letting go of Xiaodie'er's hand, Li Xiuyuan smiled and replied: "This time it's a little more dangerous. Fortunately, your master took action last time and left something in your divine sea."
Even Li Xiuyuan was shocked. If he hadn't foresighted it, he wrote a magic talisman and asked his master to help him keep it in the depths of Xiaodie'er's divine sea.
I'm afraid that this time, Xiaodie'er will really be snatched away by the law enforcement elders of the Zoroastrian Cult in one day?
Xiao Die'er was also startled and nodded desperately: "Xiao Die'er made a mistake this time. She shouldn't have left the master for fun. Junior brother and I will never go out alone again."
After thinking about it, he continued: "Junior sister is not bad. She got the elixir from Senior Donghai Old Turtle on Fushan Mountain. Junior sister will not have to worry about the elixir for cultivation in the next twenty years."
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while, then took Xiaodie'er's hand and walked out of the living room, all the way to Ksitigarbha's Buddhist hall.
He took two futons from the shelf behind him and put them on the ground, and said to Xiao Die'er: "These are real dragon balls. After refining, you may sleep for a few days."
Xiaodie'er nodded: "As long as the master is here, Xiaodie'er is not afraid."
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly: "Sit down first. There are Bodhisattvas here to protect you. Even if there are demons and ghosts in the world who want to covet your body, I'm afraid it's just wishful thinking."
Upon hearing this, Xiaodieer obediently lay down on the futon and kowtowed three times to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
He said seriously: "Bodhisattva must protect Xiao Die'er. Outside the cave, Xiao Die'er was almost swallowed by the old demon."
Of course Ksitigarbha on the Buddhist altar would not answer Xiaodie'er. Li Xiuyuan was sitting on a futon, holding a dragon ball in his hand.
Quietly asked: "So, are you ready?"
Xiao Die'er sat down on the futon, nodded gently and said, "Master, Xiao Die'er is ready."
Li Xiuyuan looked at Ksitigarbha on the Buddhist altar and said, "Use the divine power of Jian Jia to help my disciples travel through thousands of kalpas and reach the other shore."
After saying that, the golden light of the dragon ball in his hand shone brightly, and he slowly walked towards Xiaodie'er.
Although Ksitigarbha in the Buddhist hall ignored the two masters and disciples, a faint Buddha light fell and enveloped Xiaodie'er. It was obviously the Bodhisattva who protected the girl in the Buddha's world.
After Li Xiuyuan spent half an hour refining the dragon ball into Xiaodie'er's body, he posted a magic talisman on the door of the Buddhist hall, and no one was allowed to enter, no matter the wind or rain.
At least she was safe until Xiaodieer woke up.
Just after Li Xiuyuan left, Xiaodie'er in the Buddhist hall seemed to go straight to the sky after the dragon entered her body, and came to a stone tower while half asleep.
There was an old man she was familiar with sitting on the first floor of the stone tower, holding a book in his hand and making tea.
Xiao Die'er was stunned, then stepped forward and pulled the old man's sleeve and asked: "Grandpa, haven't you already entered reincarnation? Why are you here??"
The old man in front of her was the same old man she met in the Wanren Mountain Underground Palace who gave her the Dragon Ball. The old man sighed.
He looked at her and said with a smile: "This is a divine thought I left on the dragon bead to help you refine this bead."
Xiao Die'er blinked and replied: "Dragon beads? Didn't my master already refine them for Xiao Die'er??"
The old man smiled and said: "If it's just an ordinary dragon's pearl, it's no problem for him to refine it for you. What I'm giving you is a divine dragon's pearl, and you still need to put some thought into it yourself."
Xiaodie'er said "Oh!" and asked, "What should Xiaodie'er do??"
The old man pointed to the top of his head and smiled: "There are six floors of towers above. There will be different guys guarding each floor. If you go and break through them, this bead will be yours from now on."
"You want to fight?"
Xiao Die'er clenched her fist and expressed her interest. She had never been afraid of anyone in a fight. After all, even the law enforcement elders of the Zoroastrian Cult were defeated by her.
The old man thought for a while and replied: "It's not really a fight, it's just that everyone is trying their best, use all the skills you have learned, and make them admit defeat."
At this time, Lao Die'er finally understood the old man's thoughts and said with a smile: "It turns out that this dragon ball still needs a fight to conquer it. If Xiao Die'er can't defeat it, can he rest?"
The old man smiled and said: "If you can't beat it, just rest. This is just a test for you. They won't hurt you, and no one will disturb you when you sleep."
"Also, if you go up there, you will be of the same generation as them, because the dragon ball on your body belongs to me. You only need to call me brother and sister, not senior."
Xiao Die'er waved her hand and said with a smile: "Grandpa, please protect Xiao Die. Help me when you can't beat me. I'm going in."
The old man smiled lightly: "Don't be afraid, kid, just use the skills you have learned in the past."
Xiaodieer chuckled: "I know, I must conquer this bead."
The old man was stunned and thought to himself, you are not conquering the Dragon Ball, you are conquering the Dragon Tower.
Following the stone steps, Xiaodieer arrived at the second floor of the stone tower.
She found that this place was even more spacious than the first floor. What appeared in front of her was a large table with high piles of books and a pot of tea, which was steaming lightly. It was obvious that the water had not boiled yet.
A middle-aged man was holding a volume of books, but his eyes were staring at him.
Xiaodie'er wanted to call her senior, but she suddenly thought of what the old man on the first floor said, so she could only say, "Xiaodie'er has met senior brother."
The middle-aged man put the scroll in his hand, looked at her and said, "Are you the descendant of that old guy?"
Xiaodie'er thought for a moment and shook her head: "It doesn't seem so. Grandpa just gave the dragon ball to Xiaodie'er."
The middle-aged man was furious when he heard this and said, "You call him grandpa and you call me senior brother. What do you mean?"
Xiao Die'er chuckled and replied: "Grandpa said that I came here to break through with the Dragon Ball, which represents his identity, so naturally I called you senior brother."
The middle-aged man sighed: "I haven't drank for a long time. Do you have any?"
Xiao Die'er was stunned for a moment, then realized what she was doing, took out a jar of Xiao Hong's black bean wine and put it on the table, clasped her fists and said, "This is the black bean wine made by my sister Hong, but Xiao Die'er doesn't know how to drink it."
Before she could finish her words, the middle-aged man had already opened the wine jar, grabbed a bowl from behind, filled it with wine, and drank it in one gulp without saying a word.
"ah"
"This is fine wine. Compared with this, the ones I drank before can only be called water."
Xiao Die'er chuckled, took two more dried fish and put them on the table, and said with a smile: "Brother, please slow down, there are also dried fish here to go with the wine, I guarantee you will like it."
The middle-aged man drank another bowl of wine and said with a smile: "With wine and fish, I wouldn't be a god in a day like this."
