Unlike Huajiao and the other three, Li Xiuyuan never left the cabin after boarding the ship. He went to the bow to look at the scenery.
The sea and sky were the same color, enveloped by his consciousness, all black and white, there was nothing to see... It was the bright moon on the sea, and it was for this reason that he had the idea of going out.
However, the peacock is very well-behaved. From the moment he got on the boat, he followed Xiao Dieer and the others, learning to recite Buddhist scriptures word for word every day.
The old lady felt distressed and said it was too difficult to memorize Buddhist scriptures when she had just started to learn how to speak.
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "This may be the blessing of the peacock. When he first learned to speak, he learned the Dharma. In the future, he will practice transformation, and I'm afraid it will be smooth sailing."
When the old turtle and the old woman thought about it carefully, they all admired it and thought that it was indeed true.
When people in the world learn to speak when they are young, they all start by calling their parents, but a peacock learns to speak by starting his practice with a volume of Buddhist scriptures.
I am afraid that this is a unique miracle in the world. Even Huajiao touches the peacock from time to time and secretly marvels. I am afraid that there can be a teacher teaching peacocks in this world. I am afraid that this little guy will be like a senior sister in the future.
Li Xiuyuan chatted with Lao Gui and knew that there were pirates in the East China Sea, but no one dared to make any plans after seeing this big black ship.
Just like the large ship with the colorful flag that left earlier, it is also an iconic place on the East China Sea. No pirate dares to touch these two large ships.
What the old woman didn't expect was that autumn was originally the season when the wind blows on the sea, but somehow there were only slight winds and waves along the way, but there were no violent storms like previous autumns.
On the fifth day, what looked like half a Yunqi Temple mountain in the eyes of a crow became a small boat in the vast sea.
Lying on the bow of the boat, he said to Xiaodie'er: "Sister, if I fall in now, I will definitely not be able to tell the difference between east and northwest, let alone find an island to live on."
The peacock, who had already learned some languages, smiled and said: "The sun...the place where the sun rises...the east..."
Xiao Die'er nodded and said with a smile: "Junior Brother is an idiot, Sister Peacock, please ignore him."
The provoking peacock chuckled and said, "What is an idiot?"
The angry crow croaked, flapped its wings, and staggered toward the cabin to talk to the gentleman.
In the cabin, Old Turtle looked at Li Xiuyuan who was making tea and asked, "Sir, when will my peacock transform?"
Li Xiuyuan did not answer immediately, but asked the old woman beside him: "Senior, how long will the little peacock have to practice before she can fulfill her little wish?"
The old woman smiled and said: "To untie the bell, you still need the person who tied it... I think if she changes her body once, she won't have so much thought to recite Buddhist scriptures."
The old turtle thought that this was also the case. He was afraid that once the peacock transformed, he would only want to play with Pianpian.
How can I still remember to spend some time every day to practice Buddhism seriously with Xiao Die'er and the other three?
Li Xiuyuan disagreed, looked at the two of them and replied calmly: "If you don't learn, then you won't learn... Peacocks are not like little butterflies and crows, they must learn."
Both Xiaodie'er and Crow Crow were possessed by demons, and practicing Buddhism was also a way Li Xiuyuan had to come up with.
The master and the disciples were just passing through Donghai in a hurry. I'm afraid it was shorter than Furong Town, so they couldn't care about so many things.
Peacock has a master like Lao Gui, so it's not Li Xiuyuan's turn to worry about practicing.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan smiled: "I met a green snake in the mountains and forests of the far north, and after studying Buddhist scriptures, it turned into a dragon."
"Later, the three of us, the master and the apprentice, left first, but we didn't expect that by chance, not long after we left, she survived the catastrophe of transformation in that mountain forest..."
The old turtle heard the words and praised: "The green snake turned into a dragon after hearing the news, and then transformed again. This is really an incredible thing. I wonder where the green snake went in the end?"
Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan sighed softly: "After she left that mountain forest, she completely forgot about me. That's fine, I have less to worry about in this world..."
The old woman smiled and said: "Perhaps that fate was not yours in the first place? After all, you can't take her away with you, don't you think so?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly: "Let it go."
On the seventh day, when Li Xiuyuan was still leaning in the cabin with his eyes closed to rest, Xiaodieer rushed in.
He took Li Xiuyuan's hand and said, "Master, I'm sorry. Another big ship has arrived. Do you want to go out and take a look?"
Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan replied: "No, I want to be able to see it from here."
After saying that, he released his spiritual consciousness and looked at the vast sea, and saw that just as Xiao Die'er said, a large ship was coming with the flags on the ship, which was very beautiful.
Just then, the old turtle and the old woman walked in.
The old turtle smiled and said, "Don't panic, young gentleman. This is the ship from Lingxian Island. We have brought some goods to be transferred to their island owner."
Li Xiuyuan nodded: "It doesn't matter, as long as it's not a pirate."
Xiao Die'er said "Oh!", obviously a little disappointed. The little girl was originally looking forward to a fight.
Crow looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "Master, do you want to take a look at that boat?"
Before Li Xiuyuan could answer, the old woman beside him sighed softly, pulled Li Xiuyuan's sleeve and said, "Mother-in-law is going to visit that island..."
"Xiao Die'er wants to go too." Xiao Die'er shouted.
"Little girl, none of you can go. You must obey your mother-in-law and follow Grandpa Turtle to Xianyun Island." The old woman's voice was not loud, but Xiaodie'er couldn't help but not listen.
When Old Turtle heard this, he was a little surprised. The expression on his face changed again and again, but he didn't say anything.
Li Xiuyuan thought about Gong Yangbo's experience and heard something in the old woman's words. He replied calmly: "In this case, I will accompany my senior for a while."
"I will accompany the master." Crow thought for a while and said.
The old woman touched the crow's feathers and smiled: "You haven't even grown all your feathers yet, so don't make trouble. If you need anything, you can ask the peacock to fly to the island to meet us..."
"Sir, is there any danger?" Huajiao was worried about his safety.
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said with a smile: "Did you encounter any danger last time you went out?"
After listening to the old woman's words, Peacock stretched out his head to nuzzle Xiaodieer: "Sister Pianpian, you are still waiting...waiting for sister."
When Xiaodie'er heard this, she was immediately in a dilemma. She looked at Li Xiuyuan and shouted, "How about Xiaodie'er go see the master first, and then go see Pianpian?"
"No."
Li Xiuyuan and Lao Gui cupped their hands and said, "Senior, please take good care of my three disciples. Don't let them cause trouble on the island, and don't let them be bullied."
After speaking, he took out the half-empty jar of Xinghua Spirit Wine and placed it on the table.
Tell Xiao Die'er: "You can give this wine to your friends when the time comes. The master will come back to you after finishing the work."
Xiao Die'er put away the spirit wine on the table and thought about Pian Pian's appearance. It seemed that the master and the old woman were afraid that they would not take the three of them there together, so she turned to look at Old Turtle anxiously.
Pulling his sleeve, he asked: "Grandpa Turtle, will my master be in danger here?"
Before the old turtle could say anything, the old woman touched Xiaodie'er's head and said, "Don't worry, little girl, my mother-in-law is here and she will definitely let your master go back safely."
Li Xiuyuan told Huajiao: "During the days when I am away from Huajiao, keep an eye on Xiaodieer and your senior brother. Don't cause trouble. Remember to do your homework every day."
Seeing this, Huajiao had no choice but to respond: "Don't worry, sir, Huajiao will remember it."
Li Xiuyuan sighed, took Xiaodie'er's hand and said, "There are crows following you. As long as you don't cause trouble, there won't be any trouble."
In Li Xiuyuan's view, no one in this world could take the sword from Crow.
Not to mention, the Crow is now a great monk.
Crow patted his chest: "Master, don't worry, as long as I'm here, everything will be fine for your senior sister and junior sister."
After handing over his three disciples, Li Xiuyuan said to Peacock: "Peacock, don't be playful. If you want to transform early, you must remember to memorize Buddhist scriptures every day."
Peacock nodded: "Sir... don't worry..."
Seeing this, the old turtle had no choice but to say: "That's it, I'll say hello to them later and ask Peacock to go to the island to find you if anything happens."
The old woman moved her lips and said a few words to the old turtle. Hearing the old turtle tremble, he turned around and walked towards the cabin without saying a word.
Huajiao packed up the things in Li Xiuyuan's house and handed them to her husband.
Xiao Die'er thought for a while, then took out another bag of snacks and handed it to Li Xiuyuan. After thinking for a while, she said: "Master, please don't leave Xiao Die'er behind next time."
Li Xiuyuan sighed, touched her head and asked, "Do you still remember why we traveled to the East China Sea?"
Hearing this, Xiao Die'er was shocked.
He quickly squinted his eyes and laughed: "Master, don't worry, Xiaodie'er will definitely take good care of our junior brother and won't allow him to cause trouble."
The master's words made Xiaodie'er instantly understand that no matter where the master went, he would eventually leave this world with her and Crow.
Only by practicing hard can she one day return to Ding'an City to visit her relatives.
After explaining everything, Li Xiuyuan smiled at the old woman and said, "Senior, let's go to the legendary Fairy Island and take a look at it for my friend."
Just this sentence made Xiaodie'er and Huajiao understand something instantly. It seemed that the master really wanted to go to the island to see something.
Xiaodie'er took Li Xiuyuan's hand and walked out of the cabin, whispering in his ear: "Master, go first. I'll ask Sister Peacock to find you in a few days."
Li Xiuyuan sighed: "Remember that after seeing Pianpian, you are not allowed to eat the elixirs, wines, and teas on the island. You can no longer break the rules."
Xiaodie'er said "Oh!" and then exclaimed: "Master, if I hadn't told you, Xiaodie'er would have almost forgotten about it."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head: "It seems that you, like a crow, will become an idiot sooner or later."
"That's impossible. After we leave here, Xiao Die'er will take Peacock to study Buddhist scriptures and promise not to cause any trouble to the master." Xiao Die'er said.
Li Xiuyuan nodded and asked Xiao Die'er in a solemn voice: "Xiao Die'er, how long have we lived in Furong Town?"
Xiao Die'er thought for a while and replied: "Almost a year... Oh, Xiao Die'er understands, master, don't worry, Die'er won't rush you..."
Li Xiuyuan then smiled with satisfaction: "I don't know where your father, mother, and eldest sister are at now?"
The crow jumped from Li Xiuyuan's shoulder to Xiaodie'er's shoulder.
After thinking for a while, he said: "When the crow's feathers grow, I will go with the peacock sister to see the master and bring you delicious food."
Li Xiuyuan replied quietly: "Don't forget, what did we come to the East China Sea for? What should we say and what should we not do..."
Huajiao on the side smiled lightly: "Don't worry, sir, I'm watching over you, senior brother."
The peacock flushed and shouted: "The ship...the ship is coming."
I saw a large ship with a flying flag gradually approaching, and a man released a long deck to connect the two large ships.
The old turtle said to the old woman: "Wait for them to move the goods first, and then the senior will go over with the young gentleman." After that, he shouted to the boat on the opposite side: "Let your stewards come over."
The two men on the boat worked together and moved the cargo over in less than a quarter of an hour.
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said, "Huajiao helps senior go over first, and you can come back later."
Xiaodie'er took Li Xiuyuan's hand and shook it: "Master, what should Xiaodie'er do if she misses you?"
In his consciousness, Li Xiuyuan looked at the fluttering flags on the ship opposite and sighed softly: "Just think that you and Junior Sister went to Tianshui to play again."
