Immortal Jinting did not stay in Xiufeng Temple for long, and soon returned to Fangfang Mountain to resume his life.
He went alone and came back alone. King Shicheng did not come back with him. King Tongkuan asked: "Great Immortal, how is the situation? Can you please invite King Shicheng?"
Immortal Jinting shook his head honestly and said, "I'm not invited."
King Tongkuang frowned and said, "Is this bald man so obsessed with Zen that he got confused by Laohu? We invited him, but he even refused to come. In this case, I will go there myself." Suffer."
Seeing that he was about to get up and invite him in person, the Jinting Immortal said calmly, "That's not true."
"I'm going to invite King Shicheng. Of course he can't refuse. But King Shicheng already has an appointment, so it's hard to come."
King Tongji was unhappy and said, "If you have an appointment, then break it. Why is it so important that you won't even give us face?"
Jinting Daxian said: "It is also a matter of preaching the scriptures. King Wu's mother, the old princess, has long invited King Shicheng to go to Prince Wu's mansion to preach scriptures and preach for her. She also prays for King Wu's blessings, so she cannot get away."
King Tongji was even more displeased and said, "Can you finish what you said in one go?"
Immortal Jinting then continued: "The old princess invited King Shicheng to give a lecture. King Shicheng could not refuse, so he had to accept the invitation. I will invite you again this time. King Shicheng thought of a compromise and wanted to invite the Holy Mother to go with her. Prince Wu’s government studies Buddhism, but they don’t know what the Holy Mother’s will is.”
"This is a good idea!" King Tongji changed his tune and praised him greatly.
In this way, the old lady has a companion to listen to the sutras. She can listen to the sutras without having to drag the five of them along to listen to the monk's nonsense.
King Tongji looked at King Tongkuan expectantly, and several brothers pricked their ears, hoping that King Tongkuang could convince the old lady.
King Tongkuang took the expectations of all the brothers to find the Holy Mother of God. The old ladies had already gone to Prince Wu's Mansion to listen to the play, but the play was not good, so they thought of asking King Shicheng to give a sermon.
Now it was just a matter of listening to operas instead of listening to scriptures. She also had the old princess accompanying her, so she naturally had no intention of refusing.
In this way, King Shicheng no longer needs to go to Fangshan Mountain, he only needs to go to Gusu City.
As for whether the old princess really invited King Shicheng to give a lecture, this is not a problem. This is not the first time that Jinting Immortal has dealt with the old princess. When he was in Jinhua, in order to deal with the locust god, he once pulled the old princess's tiger skin to order the county emperor.
The old princess often went to the Great Buddha Temple to worship Buddha, and Abbot Huiming of the Great Buddha Temple was an old friend of Gong Mengbi.
Although there was no trace of the old princess's invitation to King Shicheng to give a lecture, the Great Immortal Jinting had already let the news out. Not only did he include the old princess whom he had never met, but he also included his old friend Abbot Huiming.
Although it was a myth, all the problems would be solved by simply asking King Shicheng to send a Buddhist scripture to the old princess in the name of Abbot Huiming.
In order to avoid going to Fangfang Mountain, King Shicheng personally sent a box of scriptures to Prince Wu's Mansion that day, along with a letter.
The letter stated that King Shicheng was an old friend of Abbot Huiming. The two often exchanged letters. Abbot Huiming remembered the good faith of the old princess, so he asked King Shicheng to dedicate scriptures to the old princess. The scriptures are obscure. If the old princess needs it, he can also ask Shicheng. The king comes to give lectures on the scriptures.
The old princess did not doubt that he was there, because the letter also wrote some old stories about the old princess worshiping Buddha at the Dafo Temple. In order to win the old princess's trust, she even brought out the Taoist priest Xuan Xiao of the Daxian Temple to testify.
The old princess invited King Shicheng without even asking Abbot Huiming for confirmation.
It doesn't matter even if you ask Abbot Huiming for confirmation, because when the people from Prince Wu's Mansion arrive at the Great Buddha Temple, Abbot Huiming will recognize the matter without hesitation.
On the second day, King Tongkuang accompanied the Holy Mother above to go down the mountain to listen to the scriptures. As a middleman, the Great Immortal Jinting naturally wanted to accompany him.
The carriage on Shangfangshan staggered towards Gusu City. Protected by ghosts and gods in front of and behind the carriage, the carriage drove straight in. The ghost soldiers guarding the city saw the beauty of Shangfangshan and did not dare to stop it, letting the carriage drive. Enter the city.
When I arrived at Prince Wu's Mansion, I found out who I was before I entered the Mansion.
middle.
The Holy Mother above was still looking forward to the sermon. Lang Xiaowei and Hua Xiaowei, who had a pleasant mouth, were waiting on her. Qiong Niang followed beside her and took a seat in the Swiss Garden of Prince Wu's Mansion.
The old princess and King Shicheng were already there. The Holy Mother above did not disturb them. She just sat down silently, picked up the scriptures on the table and started to read. She quickly entered the state.
Immortal Jinting and King Shicheng looked at each other. King Shicheng nodded slightly but made no other moves.
King Tongkuan and the Great Immortal Jinting accompanied the old lady to listen to the sutra for a day. King Tongkuan began to doze off after listening for a while, his eyes were half-closed, and his breath gradually became quieter.
Captain Hua and Lieutenant Lang were leaning against each other, head to shoulder, almost drooling.
For those who are not interested, no matter how nice King Shicheng's words are, it's like listening to a book from heaven.
The old lady was very happy to hear this. When she left, she made an appointment with the old princess to come back tomorrow.
As the carriage swayed away from Prince Wu's Mansion and rolled through the streets of Gusu, the old lady said, "Master Shicheng is indeed an eminent monk. He talks about the sutras in simple and profound terms, which makes people happy."
King Tongkuang laughed and dealt with it. He had slept all day and really didn't know what King Shicheng said, which made Qiong Niang cover her mouth and snicker.
When he thought that there would be many more days like this, King Tongkuang almost felt sad. So I pulled Jinting Daxian from the carriage to the outside, looking at the snow that had not yet melted by the roadside, and the dusk light shining on the pedestrians coming and going, which gave the illusion of a peaceful world.
Among the ordinary people, a couple holding arms came into view.
Tong Kuang Daxiang suddenly raised his eyebrows, his eyes brightened, and said, "She is really beautiful."
Immortal Jinting followed his gaze and uttered a slight doubt: "Weird."
King Tongkuan's eyes were glued to the couple and he said, "You must have noticed it too."
The Great Immortal of Jinting said: "The aura is different. It is not an ordinary person. It is wearing human skin. As for whether it is beautiful or not, you can't tell."
King Tongkuang became proud and said: "You don't have clairvoyance, so you can't see their uniqueness."
King Tongkuang stretched out his hand and flicked it gently in front of Jinting Immortal's eyes, and Jinting Immortal felt that the world in front of him suddenly became brighter.
It's like the dust has been brushed away, revealing the original transparency of the mirror.
Under the human skin of that couple, there are two monsters, a man and a woman.
The man is wearing green clothes and has a handsome face, but his eyes are like horizontal daggers with an evil aura.
The woman is dressed in white, her beauty is heavenly, her eyes are like autumn water, and she is as soft as silk.
She is indeed a beauty, a rare beauty.
King Tongkuan said to the ghosts and gods driving the car: "Tianjia, I want them."
The ghost driving the carriage turned into the wind and disappeared from the carriage.
