In the afternoon, there was an endless stream of tourists. The monks of Woxia Temple were full of smiles and enthusiastically served this group of wealthy and noble pilgrims.
Along the mountain path to the temple, the young master wears a feather fan and wears a turban, and the young lady wears fragrant clothes and has a shadow on her temples.
Shen Li and Huai Si blended in and climbed up the stairs.
The young man smiled and said: "Woxia Temple is indeed the largest temple in Nanwu. A grand Buddha's birthday event attracted many powerful people."
"People all over the world call Nanwu a Buddhist country, so it is naturally a Buddhist country." Huaisi said.
Shen Li said coldly: "Since ancient times, the general trend of the world has been prosperous and then declining. Now it is the time when Buddhism is at its peak in Southern Wu. Even the prince of the current Dynasty has to give away some face of your Buddhist family. I don't know when the general trend of Buddhism begins to decline. , and what a miserable situation it is.”
Huaisi didn't seem worried: "It's not easy to make Buddhism decline."
If we discuss which family has the most first-level masters in the world, it will definitely cause endless controversy, but we all have to admit that the number of first-level masters in the Buddhist family is one of the best.
This is the confidence of the Buddhists. It is also the fundamental reason why Southern Wu faced the Northern Sui Dynasty. No matter how they fought for power and internal strife internally, they were not worried about the Northern Sui Dynasty taking the opportunity to go south. On the contrary, the Northern Sui Dynasty needed to beware of Southern Wu and the Western Shu Alliance collaborating in the Northern Expedition.
Woxia Temple in April has a unique scenery. Visitors around me often express their praises from the bottom of their hearts. When they arrive at the Buddhist temple dedicated to Skanda Bodhisattva, they stop nostalgicly under the old tree, watching Shen Li smile and say: "The old tree sprouts new buds." , I wonder if it’s to congratulate our temple for hosting the Buddha’s birthday event, or to welcome the young man?”
Shen Li couldn't help but laugh: "How many celebrities have come to your temple now? The old trees sprouting new buds must be a celebration of Woxia Temple's better luck."
"That makes sense."
"Sending Buddha to the west, I am going down the mountain too."
Watching the young man disappear quickly, Huai Si was silent for a long time.
He is only a sixth-level practitioner. Xiaolangjun really wants to kill him, so one and a half moves is enough.
The reality is that he is still alive and well.
At that time, the prince told him that Shen Li was a world-famous member of the Xingxiu Sect and was well-known in Kaixi City. It would be absolutely unreasonable to kill him according to the meaning of the letter. Moreover, the writer of the letter was extremely skillful and introduced a King Xun as a substitute. With Shen Li's intelligence, he has reached this point. It is inevitable to figure out who wrote that letter.
In other words, by killing Huaisi, the young man would be able to rise through the ranks much faster than following the prince. He could even clear his name and become a new noble of Southern Wu.
The prince also said that in addition to his nostalgia, the letter writer also asked Shen Li to kill Yang Bo and Zhu Murong.
I have heard about the background of the two people. Although Yang Bo was from the Northern Sui Dynasty, he cared about the world, and was valued by several big figures in the Northern Sui Dynasty temple. Now he is traveling to Woxia Temple and killed Yang Bo. Maybe the Northern Sui Dynasty will One less pillar of the country.
As for Zhu Murong, although she practices partial Buddhism, there is currently a fierce debate within the Buddhist community over whether the Buddhism practiced by Zhu Murong should be incorporated into orthodox Buddhism.
Huaisi knew Zhu Murong. She was once the personal maid of Concubine Lan. Concubine Lan thought that she had a high level of understanding, so she personally asked someone to find an eminent monk and asked him to recommend a suitable practice method for Zhu Murong.
That method is the so-called partial method of Buddhism.
After being called into the palace by the Supreme Being, he once met Zhu Murong beside the Supreme Being.
On the way down the mountain, Shen Li was stopped by a novice monk.
"Donor, is your surname Shen?"
"good!"
"Someone is looking for you."
"Who? Where?"
"In the other courtyard of our temple where we entertain distinguished guests."
"Okay, you lead the way."
"Donor, please go this way."
Entering the fork in the road, there are low brick walls on both sides. Behind the brick walls, there are big trees, flowers and plants everywhere, and the chirping of birds.
After walking for about two minutes, the novice who led the way waited for the young man who was admiring the scenery, and together they followed the stone steps down the mountain. The stone steps were twists and turns, leading to a group of elegantly built houses with extensive gardens.
In the garden in front of the house, distinguished guests wearing brocade clothes were chatting and laughing in twos and threes.
It was strange to see the guests attending the Buddha's birthday party. It turned out that they were on the other side of the mountain, far away from the courtyard where the prince lived.
In front of the house, the monks of Woxia Temple are busy. There is the venue for the Buddha's birthday celebration. At that time, Xianglu Pills will become the lucky draw, and some well-known eminent monks will also appear to give lectures.
After all, this is the Buddhist Kingdom of Nanwu, so there are still necessary rituals.
Shen Li stood on the stone steps and looked down. Although the Buddha's birthday event will only be held tomorrow, the atmosphere is already there. Countless Buddhist instruments are densely placed in corresponding positions. For this event, under Woxia Temple It took a lot of effort and a long time to prepare, and the money was spent like water.
Seeing Shen Li looking at the venue, the novice monk smiled and said: "The donor may try to fight for the Xianglu Pills tomorrow. The Xianglu Pills are made by the eminent monks of our temple who have spent countless energy and used countless precious medicinal materials. They were obtained at the right time and place. A wonderful medicine that has just been refined under the conditions of human harmony."
The young man nodded slightly and said, "How do you feel, little master?"
The novice monk lowered his head and put his hands together: "How honored you are."
After descending the mountain road, the novice led Shen Li into the house.
As expected of Woxia Temple, it is really rich and powerful. The buildings in this series are all newly built, just like the courtyard built after the Prince's Mansion.
"Donor, the person looking for you is right in front."
After walking through the arch, the small pond was clear and fish were swimming freely. The two women stopped by the pond to enjoy it.
One is veiled, the other is equally strange.
After glancing at the novice monk who was leaving quickly, the young man stepped forward, stared at the veiled girl and smiled: "I thought I would see Sister Yu again next time, but I don't know what year or month it will be, but my fate is really magical. I actually saw Sister Yu here again." "
As soon as he finished speaking, the strange girl stretched out her hand to twist Shen Li's ears and cursed angrily: "You brat only cares about flirting, don't you know how to say hello to me?"
Although she wore a mask of excellent quality, Shen Li recognized her at first sight when she stepped into the small courtyard. She was Song Wanru.
To Song Wanru's expectation, the young man seemed to be angry. He waved his hand to Rou Yi, who was twisting her ears, and said angrily: "Hey, Sister Song has never taken me seriously, why should I say hello to you?"
Song Wanru was stunned. She had never heard such a cold and heartless tone from the young man's mouth.
In the past, there were countless jokes and words that were more outrageous than this, but they were all just jokes.
"you……"
Shen Li looked at her seriously: "You shouldn't treat me like an outsider. I went to Zui Chun Tower and knew that there was something fishy about Chen Liuyao, but I never thought of taking it all for myself. Sister Song hid every word and every word. I didn't tell the slightest truth, wasn't it because I was afraid that I would selfishly swallow the Eight Heavenly Dragons? At first, I thought that Sister Song was in Zuichun Tower to observe and monitor Chen Liuyao, but I never expected that she was just to be wary of me!"
"..."
Looking at the angry young man, Song Wanru was speechless.
Just as he was about to continue his harsh words, someone suddenly slapped him on the back of the head.
Hear the word again.
"Do you want to die?"
The young man covered his head and turned around, and saw that the woman who was as beautiful and refined as a narcissus was the female coachman whom he had seen outside the courtyard where the prince lived. She was also his other good sister and the recognized deputy leader of the Xingxiu Sect.
He was furious, and his true temper was revealed immediately: "You should know how much contribution and loyalty I have made when I was brought into the Xingxiu Sect by Sister Xie! Humph, you actually watched me as carefully as I treated my enemy. To be honest, I wish I could..."
Bang!
The woman received another slap on the head.
She looked at Shen Li silently, her eyes as calm as water.
"I……"
Seeing the woman raise her hand, Shen Li hurriedly said: "Don't! Good sister, good sister, stop fighting. I know I was wrong."
"With Xie Lingjiang not around, do you think your wings have become stiff?" she asked back.
"It's impossible! How could it be possible! If Sister Xie is not here, isn't there you, Sister Qin? You are my biological sister!"
Qin Xianqing pointed at Song Wanru: "Apologise."
Song Wanru's eyes were red, and her tears had already formed a thread.
Shen Li forcibly held the little hand that kept struggling away, and whispered: "Good sister, I know I was wrong. I... couldn't control myself for a moment, so I got angry at you."
"Do you think Song Wanru is wary of you swallowing the Eight Heavenly Dragons secretly? You think too highly of yourself. Without the medicine to neutralize it, if you dare to swallow the Eight Heavenly Dragons, the leader lurking in Kaixi City will not have to fight with Zen Master Foyu. I have to take you all over the world to find Concubine Lan to calm down the shocking dragon spirit, otherwise, let alone one or two more years to live, your kid will explode and die in less than two days."
Qin Xianqing continued to say calmly: "You are still talking about a young man. I have long heard Nalan Suichun say that you are very crazy outside. You don't pay attention to martial arts warriors. You forgot what I said to you. When you should be crazy, Crazy, are you restrained when you should be restrained?"
As if to help Song Wanru vent her anger, as soon as Song Wanru raised her hand to slap him, Song Wanru hurriedly stopped her and said softly: "Sister Qin, don't be angry. It's me who didn't explain the matter clearly in Zuichun Tower."
Qin Xianqing retracted her hand and said as she walked: "You, Bai Niang, are meeting a big shot. You will do better tomorrow when competing for Xianglu Pills. Don't embarrass me."
Song Wanru gave Shen Li a hard look, shook off my hand that he only held, and returned to the room angrily.
The young man smiled awkwardly at Yubainiang and said, "Sister Qin is half my master, and I learned my swordsmanship from her."
Yubainiang seemed to have not seen what happened just now, and explained why she came back to Woxia Temple again and again.
"Oh? Do you know who that big shot is?"
"Miss Qin and Miss Song didn't say anything."
"Hey, these people like to pretend to be sophisticated."
As soon as he finished speaking, an undetectable sword energy suddenly penetrated the young man's body, and his internal organs were instantly painful. However, the sword energy was harmless, but it only helped Shen Li resolve the accumulation of the Turtle and Snake Spring Rejuvenation Pill.
Knowing that the sword energy was coming from Qin Xianqing, the young man puffed out his chest and said with a forced smile, "Don't worry, Sister Qin may seem indifferent, but she is actually a warm-hearted and good person. She will definitely not harm you."
Yu Bainiang mainly wanted to thank him. Without what Shen Li had done in Zuichun Tower, Chen Liuyao would have died in the storm, and she would have become a canary raised by the big shots in Kaixi City.
Chatted for a few words.
Yubainiang laughed softly and said: "Young Master, why don't you advise Miss Song again? I like the koi in the pond very much. Please appreciate it more."
Shen Li smiled and hurriedly ran into the house.
It was impossible for Yubainiang not to feel lonely. On the way to Woxia Temple, Song Wanru expressed her love for the young man in every word.
As for her and Xiao Langjun, I don’t know whether they met by chance and then forgot about each other, or they have a deep fate, and they have been together for a long time.
