Journey to the West: I, the Dragon Prince of the East China Sea, worship Bodhi

Chapter 44
Originally, Ao Qing didn't think too much about accepting the stone, but he felt the preciousness of the stone, so he froze.

On the contrary, the woodcutter seemed to see Ao Qing's hesitation, and said: "Brother, please don't refuse my brother's kindness!" Then he picked up the axe, turned around, and walked towards the residence.

Seeing this, Ao Qing was also relieved.He put Shi Haosheng away, the gratitude in his heart turned into respect, and saluted behind him: "So, thank you brother!"

The woodcutter who went away waved his hand: "Don't worry about it, just go and find Master!"

Ao Qing responded.

Indeed, it is also time, it is time to ask the teacher.

So he picked up the breeze and went to Nayaotai.

……

……

After a while, Ao Qing came to Yaotai and saw that the master was not here, so he went to the residence of Patriarch Bodhi.

I saw that the front door was wide open, and the patriarch was lying in the middle, closing his eyes and resting his mind.Ao Qing didn't bother, and waited in front of the door.

Not long after, the patriarch slowly opened his eyes, shook off the whisk, and sighed softly:

"People in the world can't talk about it, and the world is not empty. If it's true and illusion, how can you live in a dream?"

Hearing this, Ao Qing felt that what the patriarch said had deep meaning, so she couldn't help thinking it over carefully.

Seeing this, Patriarch Bodhi didn't disturb him either.Instead, wait for Ao Qing to understand.

After a long while, Ao Qing seemed to wake up, seeing the patriarch staring at him, said: "Master, this disciple is rude."

The patriarch stroked his beard and said, "Where are you being rude? It's me who seems to have interrupted your comprehension."

Ao Qing hurriedly said: "Why did the master say this? If the master didn't speak the mysterious words, where would the disciple go to realize it? Is there any reason to beat the monk after reading the scriptures?"

"Beat the monk after reading the scriptures?" The patriarch couldn't help but smiled slightly: "You little dragon is interesting. Forget it, don't gossip. The teacher already knows why you came. But you came for the Yinglong dragon ball?"

"Exactly." Ao Qing nodded.

For Patriarch Bodhi to know his purpose, he naturally felt that it was normal.

After all, this "heart realm" is equivalent to the world created by the patriarch.Every move that happens here, naturally cannot be hidden from the Patriarch.

However, this time, the patriarch did not help Ao Qing as he always did in the past, but said: "This Yinglong Dragon Orb can indeed help you achieve the Hunyuan Orb and reach the realm of 'the five elements are mutually generated, and the cycle is endless'. But , this is your own opportunity, but you have to fight for it yourself.”

When Ao Qing heard the words, she also thought it was true.

As the saying goes: When you lose your time, you can save yourself.

Now that Patriarch Bodhi has led him into the door, he naturally has to rely on himself for this practice.

However, having said that, the ability to reshape Yinglong Longzhu... Ao Qing doesn't have it.

So he said: "What Master said is true, but I still hope that Master can point out a clear way. In this world, besides Yinglong and Dragon Ball, are there other things that can complement the five elements?"

Patriarch Bodhi looked at Ao Qing, restrained his expression, and said: "Naturally there are. There are mysteries in this world, and there are infinite mysteries. Besides Yinglong, there are many gods that can complete the five elements. I can also point out a way to teach you. You go to strive for the body of the Dragon Ancestor. However, have you made up your mind to pursue it?"

Ao Qing looked at the patriarch, the patriarch's eyes were plain, but Ao Qing couldn't help feeling a little sense of crisis in his heart.

Patriarch Bodhi... Could it be that he wants to drive himself out of the teacher's school?

He paused, thinking a lot in his mind.

After a while, Ao Qing said: "I want to pursue the method of the Five Elements Dragon Ball. However, I don't have to seek the help of foreign objects. If the foreign object is harmful to my Dao Xin, then I would rather give up the method of the Five Elements Dragon Ball and find another one." other paths."

"Oh?"

Patriarch Bodhi asked, "What is the reason for this?"

Ao Qingdao: "My disciple once heard: Obedience and obedience means keeping, and the merits are in the sky. Obedience leads to life, reason leads to success, disobedience leads to death, and failure leads to obscurity. This Hunyuan Dragon Ball is the creation that seizes the heaven and the earth, and invades the sun and the moon. However, the reason for this is to protect the Tao and cultivate the mind, not to mess with the Tao. If you insist on seeking immortality and lose the Tao, you must put the cart before the horse."

When the patriarch heard the words, there was a little appreciation in his eyes for a moment, and then disappeared.

But this moment of emotion made the atmosphere calm down immediately.

I saw the patriarch asked again: "Xinxuan, you just said 'beating the monk after reading the scriptures', as a teacher, let me ask you, what scriptures did you read from the four sentences of the teacher?"

Ao Qing recalled it carefully, and said: "I just feel that those four lines of gatha are destined for me. But what is the meaning in it is a bit unclear, but I think that when the time comes, I will know know."

The patriarch finally showed his face, and said with a smile: "That's right, don't be attached. Your mind of going with the flow is very in line with the essence of Taoism. As a teacher, I really didn't misunderstand you."

Ao Qing said: "Master is wrong."

The patriarch said: "You don't have to underestimate yourself, your understanding is indeed impressive." He paused, and said: "As for the matter of supplementing the Hunyuan Dragon Ball, there are many ways, but the simplest one is Let's start with Ying Long's Dragon Ball... Anyway, you can go back to the East China Sea, then there will naturally be some fate."

Back to the East China Sea?

Ao Qing weighed his words and said, "Master, apart from this Hunyuan Dragon Ball, this disciple also wants to learn some other supernatural powers..."

Patriarch asked, "What supernatural power?"

Ao Qing said: "I know very well the truth that you can't eat too much. Therefore, wait until you complete the dragon ball first, then come back to the Three Star Cave, and then invite the teacher and senior brothers."

Patriarch nodded: "Alright. If that's the case, let's wait until you complete the Dragon Balls before making any plans."

Ao Qing was overjoyed, and saluted respectfully: "Thank you, Master!"

It seems that the Patriarch did not want to drive himself out of the Samsung Cave.But like Brother Woodcutter, he can come and go freely!

This made him very happy.

Yes.Unknowingly, these nearly 500 years have given Ao Qing an inseparable affection for Sanxingdong.

He was naturally unwilling, like Monkey King, who was driven out of Samsung Cave by the patriarch and ordered not to come back.

With the permission of the patriarch, Ao Qing relaxed, and saluted with the patriarch again to see the teaching.At dusk, he bid farewell and left.

Before leaving, the patriarch said: "Xinxuan, don't lose that Buzhou mountain stone. This thing can not only stabilize the five elements, but also cover the mystery of the dragon ball, so as to prevent the precious light from revealing and attracting evil spirits."

"Buzhou mountain stone?"

Ao Qing was startled, but immediately thought of Brother Woodcutter.

Good guy... Bu Zhou Shanshi!
No wonder, there is an aura of a long time on that stone! !

Immediately said respectfully: "Thank you, master, for your reminder. Since it is a gift from the senior brother, the disciple should cherish it carefully and dare not make any mistakes."

Patriarch nodded: "Go."

"Apprentice farewell!"
