Spring is warm, flowers are blooming, grass is growing and orioles are flying.
Qin Luo was walking in the forest when a deer ran out of the woods and blocked his way.
The deer had a naive expression on its face, chewing grass in its mouth, and looked at Qin Luo curiously.
"Silly spore, what are you looking at!"
Xiaotuanzi raised his fist to scare the deer.
The fawn stayed where it was, then turned around and ran deep into the woods after a moment. Not far away, it looked back at Qin Luo and Xiaotuanzi again, still chewing grass in its mouth.
"Be gentle."
"Boss, if I'm not more aggressive, these stupid spores will definitely be served on the table in the future."
"That makes sense."
"hey-hey."
Xiaotuanzi put her hands on her hips proudly.
There was an ancient pagoda on the mountain not far away. Qin Luo walked towards the ancient pagoda. On the map of Caiyun Immortal, there was a temple called Liuyun Temple.
The breeze blew and maple leaves fell. Qin Luo found the way up the mountain. The surroundings were overgrown with weeds. The temple was deep in the forest and it seemed that no one had been there for many years.
Qin Luo walked on the mountain road, and the surrounding vegetation gave way. When he reached the mountainside, the plaques of Liuyun Temple fell to the ground, the gate was open, and there were many weeds in the temple.
Xiaotuanzi flew around in the sky and came back, "Boss, no bald head was found inside."
"It's a monk."
"Well, no monk."
Qin Luo walked into the temple and wanted to take a look. On the left side of the temple was the bell tower with a ten-foot-high copper bell.
Boom!
The bell rings.
There are black crows flying deep in the temple.
The originally deserted and silent temple seemed to suddenly come back to life. Qin Luo looked at the little dumpling who was kicking the clock with his short legs, like a naughty child, "Stop knocking."
"hey-hey."
Xiaotuanzi returned to Qin Luo.
Qin Luo walked through the square in front of the hall and came to the main hall. There were spider webs all over the place. There was a Buddha statue sitting high up. There was thick dust on the Buddha statue, like a stone Buddha.
The main hall was very deserted, completely different from the Yunzhong Temple that Qin Luo had been to before. He took out three sticks of incense and lit them. The ancient temple, which had been deserted for who knows how many years, once again welcomed the incense.
"Boss, why three sticks of incense?"
"Because he is Buddha."
Qin Luo heard Chu Peiran say that the Buddha deserves respect as he sits outside the territory and prevents the invasion of demons from outside the territory.
The hall was filled with golden smoke. Qin Luo turned around and left the hall. He came to the courtyard deep in the temple.
There is a crystal clear pool in the yard.
Qin Luo came to the pool. He looked at the deserted temple and decided to do something, so he took out a black Bodhi seed and threw it into the pool.
This is the bodhi seed that Guichen gave to Qin Luo. Qin Luo could feel the vitality contained in the bodhi seed, so he chose to put the bodhi seed into the pool and let it grow.
The Bodhi seed released a faint light in the pool, and soon a black lotus grew in the pool.
Xiaotuanzi felt that the black lotus was not simple. She stretched out her hand to pull off the leaves of the black lotus and taste it. Qin Luo grabbed her stupid hair and grabbed her back, "This black lotus has weak soul fluctuations and is also life. Don't hurt it." it."
"All right."
Xiaotuanzi could only give up.
Qin Luo came to the depths of the temple, where there was a pagoda. He walked into the pagoda, and all the oil lamps hanging high were lit up. In the middle of the pagoda, there sat an old monk who had turned into a withered skeleton.
"Boss, there's a baby."
Xiaotuanzi pointed to the golden relic.
Qin Luo looked at the old monk sitting cross-legged on the ground. He bowed and saluted, "Senior, why are you still unwilling to leave?"
The old monk's soul left the withered bones. His soul was very weak, like a candle in the wind, crumbling, "The poor monk cannot let go of this Liuyun Temple."
Qin Luo said seriously: "Let go of your thoughts and feel completely at ease. Seniors should understand this truth. Why do you torture yourself and trap yourself here without any relief?"
"You're right, little friend. Many times, we can't do these principles, but we have to teach them to others. It's ridiculous." The old monk shook his head and sighed.
Qin Luo smiled and said softly: "Senior, instead of trapping yourself here, it is better to go out for a walk."
"good."
The old monk smiled and nodded.
"What a bother."
Qin Luo bowed again and left.
Xiaotuanzi looked back at the relics in the pagoda and whispered: "Boss, that golden stone seems to be a treasure."
Qin Luo said with a serious look: "Taking it without asking is a theft. This is wrong."
"How about we ask him for it?"
"If someone asks for your scissors, will you give it to them?"
"No."
Xiaotuanzi shook his head repeatedly.
Qin Luo said with a smile: "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. No matter what you do in the future, you must think about it."
Xiaotuanzi nodded in understanding.
Qin Luo left the temple.
The remnant soul of the old monk walked out of the pagoda. He had not been out for a long time recently. He looked at the black lotus in the pool and felt lost for a while.
"The Holy Lotus actually appeared in Liuyun Temple. The Buddha did not abandon us!" The excitement on the old monk's face was beyond words.
The old monk looked towards the main hall, which was filled with golden light. When he walked into the main hall, the Buddha statue was shining with bright golden light. There were three sticks of incense in front of the Buddha statue.
At this moment, the old monk suddenly realized, "That's it."
A breeze blew.
The old monk's remnant soul dissipated in the wind.
In the twilight.
Qin Luo came to an ancient town.
Green bricks and black tiles, misty rain.
A small river divides the ancient town into two parts.
There was a awning boat in the river. A shirtless middle-aged man wearing a raincoat and a straw hat was paddling the boat. He looked at Qin Luo walking forward in the rain and shouted: "Master Tao, do you want to take the boat?"
"Need not."
Qin Luo smiled and shook his head.
Xiaotuanzi hid in his pocket to avoid the rain.
When Qin Luo passed by an inn, the young woman stood at the door and said enthusiastically: "Master Tao, it's getting late and it's raining again. Why not stay one night in the inn first."
"No."
Qin Luo smiled and walked forward.
"Huh, poor guy!"
The young woman deliberately mocked.
Qin Luo didn't pay attention. The small dumpling in his pocket popped out of his head and made a face at the young woman.
"ah!"
The young woman was frightened and fainted on the spot.
"hey-hey."
Xiaotuanzi changed back to his original appearance.
Bang!
Xiaotuanzi covered his head.
Qin Luo said softly: "She has no quality, just ignore her. There is no need to scare her."
Xiaotuanzi shrank into Qin Luo's pocket, and she chuckled, "Boss, you should sit in the main hall of Liuyun Temple."
Qin Luo smiled and shook his head. When he was about to leave the ancient town, a girl in Tsing Yi ran up to him. She handed over an oil-paper umbrella, "Taoist Priest, this umbrella is for you."
"Need not."
"Thank you for your kindness, girl."
Qin Luo waved his hand and refused.
"Taoist Priest, you'd better take it."
The girl in Tsing Yi threw the oil-paper umbrella to Qin Luo, then turned and ran home.
Qin Luo held the oil-paper umbrella and watched the girl in Tsing Yi return to Li's house. Looking at the grand plaque, it should be a wealthy family in the town.
The girl in Tsing Yi stood under the eaves, her eyes bright and her smile charming.
Qin Luo smiled and nodded at the girl in green. He then held up an oil-paper umbrella and walked out of the town. When he walked out of the town, the sun disappeared and mist and rain enveloped the ancient town.
Outside town.
Qin Luo held an oil-paper umbrella and saw an earth temple with gods living inside.
Qin Luo lit a stick of incense, and a burst of golden smoke poured into the Tutu Temple. Not long after, an old man crawled out of the Tutu Temple and said in panic: "Just shout out to the immortal, why be so polite."
"Senior, if the Li family in this small town encounters trouble in the future, please take care of it."
"The little god obeys!"
Qin Luo left holding an oil-paper umbrella.
The rain kept falling, but the candle incense outside Tutu Temple was still burning. Tu Tu Gong watched Qin Luo walk away. He recognized the oil-paper umbrella and knew it belonged to Miss Li's family.
late at night.
In the mountains and forests, it rains heavily.
Qin Luo saw a ruined temple in the mountains. There was a statue of a goddess in the temple. He bowed to the statue, then lit a stick of incense and placed it in the incense burner full of soil.
"It's useless, the queen here has long been out of action." Laughter came from the darkness.
Qin Luo looked at the dark area on the left side of the ruined temple, where a white-haired girl sat wearing various silver ornaments, "Since you are here, there is no harm in paying my respects."
The white-haired girl looked at Qin Luo, "You don't look like a local."
"I'm from the north, I'm Qin Luo, I wonder what I call the girl?" Qin Luo smiled.
"My name is Nanxing."
The white-haired girl closed her eyes after finishing speaking.
Qin Luo did not disturb her rest. He came to the right side of the ruined temple and sat cross-legged.
After a long time, the rain stopped and the bright moonlight shone into the ruined temple.
Nan Xing suddenly opened her eyes, she opened her hand, and a golden Gu worm crawled out of her hand.
The Gu worm was very small and made no movement. It crawled up Qin Luo's robe. The corners of Nan Xing's mouth raised slightly. At this moment, a small hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed the golden Gu worm into Qin Luo's pocket.
Crunch.
There was the sound of chewing in the ruined temple.
