Female Buddha

Chapter 20 Going Down the Mountain
Qingli's cultivation is stable in asking the Buddha for the Great Perfection.She also stopped meditating recently, and began to follow Qingtan to learn how to handle Buddhist affairs.Qingli thought that she would not go down the mountain until after the Juyuan Period.Unexpectedly, she would have the opportunity to leave Fahua Temple soon.

Li Yan, the alchemy master of Qingyunzong, was promoted to Yuanying.The celestial phenomenon at the time of promotion is the auspicious unicorn.In addition, although Li Yan is not a top alchemy master in the cultivation world.But in the golden elixir period, he was already a fifth-rank alchemist, and his future was limitless.In addition, Li Yan is the grand-nephew of the elder Taishang who is a senior member of the Qingyun Sect.So no matter which aspect is considered, Qing Yunzong decided to hold Li Yan's Nascent Soul Ceremony.Fahua Temple also received invitations.

Although Li Yan had a special status in Qingyun Sect, it was not enough for the disciples and elders of a sect to congratulate him.However, Qingyun Sect is also one of the top sects, and Fo Sect can't just send someone there.The last few people decided to send disciples of the Qing generation to congratulate.At this time, Qingli was stunned when Qingtan's words exploded like a bomb: "Why don't we let Junior Sister Qingli go on our behalf."

Qingli stared at Qingtan with wide eyes, never expecting that such an errand would be her turn.Although she is also a disciple of the Qing Dynasty.But her cultivation level is not high, she is young, and she has never walked around in the practice world.As a representative of the Buddha, go to the celebration, just sit there and talk.

Seeing the doubts in Qingli's eyes, Qingtan couldn't help but sigh: "Junior sister once said that I don't have to suppress my cultivation anymore. But now I can tell you clearly that it has only been a few years since I advanced to the Great Golden Body. . A few years later, junior sister is still young. Since she is destined to become a disciple of the Buddha at a young age, it is better to become familiar with the affairs of the disciples of the Buddha from now on. In our Buddhist practice, we pay attention to the word "enlightenment". Maybe one day I will She was promoted with an epiphany. Now she is asked to participate in the Nascent Soul Ceremony of Zhenjun Li Yan, and she also implicitly tells the outside world that she is the next disciple of the Buddha. Moreover, junior sister is still young now, so I think those people will still be embarrassed. At least not. The main reason is that he is obviously plotting against Junior Sister."

Liao Yuan nodded and said: "That's true. I think you took over as the disciple of the Buddha when you first asked the eighth level of Buddha. You are also accompanied by masters from the temple when you travel. One is to deter and protect, and the other is to remind you. Now Qing Lidu asked that the Buddha had attained great consummation, which is much better than your original situation. Since this trip is mainly about Qingli, it is not good for the people who follow her to be older than her. Send Hengzhen and Hengtong who are in Xiaojin's body to follow. .In addition, Jingwu and Jingtong, who have just gathered in Yuanyuan, are about to go down the mountain to practice. Let them follow to see the world first, and let them go out to practice on their own after you leave Qingyunzong."

Now that the deal is done and the matter is a foregone conclusion, Qingli has no choice but to accept it.After Qingli returned, she sent a letter to her friend, asking if he would also attend the Nascent Soul Ceremony.

After Murong Yu received the letter, he thought it was an opportunity to reunite with his friends, so he went to his master and asked to attend Zhenjun Li Yan's Nascent Soul Ceremony.Ling Xu's seniority is destined to make it impossible to celebrate Li Yan.But the little apprentice, who is a cultivator, is willing to go out to Lingxu, but he agrees with both hands and feet.After all, he is afraid that if this continues, his little apprentice will be unable to suppress his cultivation and build a foundation before he is 16 years old.A sword cultivator building a foundation before his body grows will affect the performance of his sword skills.This time, the Wanjian sect sent the leader of Lihuo Peak, and Zhenjun Muyan of the late Yuanying period led the team to participate in the celebration.Ling Xu said hello, and put his little apprentice into the team going to the celebration.

Mu Yan was quite surprised that this junior brother who was a genius in sword practice asked to participate in Zhenjun Li Yan's Nascent Soul Ceremony.After all, this little junior is a well-known cultivator.And I have no interest in anything other than cultivation.But Mu Yan is also an old fox, so of course he wouldn't ask Murong Yu.He was afraid of being beaten back face to face by his junior brother.Thinking that the junior brother was going to participate in the celebration, there must be something about Qing Yunzong that attracted him.He will definitely know the answer when he arrives at Qing Yunzong.

When this kind of big sect sends people out to participate in the Nascent Soul Ceremony, they will usually bring a few elite disciples of the new generation to meet the world, and by the way, they can also make friends with capable people of this generation in the practice world.So this time Mu Yan brought Zhang Cheng, the youngest disciple of the master, who was sixteen years old, at the early stage of foundation construction; Yan Wen, his eldest disciple from Lihuo Peak, who was sixteen years old, and the early stage of foundation construction; , seventeen years old, the second floor of the foundation.These three people can be said to be the best of Wan Jianzong's generation.The three are also close friends.Now that they heard that Tai Ah Feng's junior uncle was going with him, the three of them were also very surprised.In particular, they don't have many opportunities to get in touch with this cultivator mad uncle, they only know that he has a withdrawn personality and is not easy to get along with.Think about wanting to go on the same road with an iceberg who is younger than me and older than me.The gregarious trio all felt toothaches.

Sure enough, as Zhang Cheng and the others expected, with the iceberg of the little uncle, they had a rather boring life along the way.It is obvious that the cultivation level of the junior master is not as good as theirs, and it is only because of their seniority.But they are not even afraid of Master Mu Yan (junior uncle), but they are afraid of this little uncle in their hearts.Murong Yu didn't make any demands on them either.But they just didn't dare to fool around in front of Murong Yu.This made the usually lively three people quite depressed.This runaway wild horse got on the bridle, which was a good show for Mu Yan.Murong Yu has also learned badly now.Of course he could see that these nephews were too cautious in front of him, but he just didn't say anything, secretly admiring the ridiculous appearance of the three who wanted to make a fuss but had to hold back.Murong Yu also decided to share this funny incident with Qingli.

Compared with the seemingly peaceful journey of the Wanjian Sect and his party, the journey of the Fo Sect and his party can simply be described as a chicken flying like a dog.Although Jingwu and Jingtong have reunited, they are actually only more than ten years old.Boys at this age are lively and active.Even in the countryside, that's when the chickens hate the dogs.Although the two have converted to Buddhism, Fahua Temple does not force its disciples to destroy their true nature and become the same ascetic monks.This is also one of the reasons why Fahua Temple has different appearance and appearance.On important occasions, a group of people pretend to be enlightened monks, but in private they are a bunch of fools.

Back to Jingwu and Jingtong.These two are cousins ​​in the lay family, and they were born only half an hour apart.The two grew up like Siamese twins since they were young, so their relationship is very good.Jingwu has a clever face, but he just practices closed-mouth meditation.Jing Tong looks honest and friendly, but she is a talker.It may be because the cousin practices closed-mouth meditation and doesn't talk easily, so Jingtong just said the cousin's share together.Ever since he left the temple gate, this guy has been chattering endlessly.You must know that as a Buddha cultivator, you are very good at cultivating qi.If he just kept talking like a little sparrow, Qingli and the others would only feel a little noisy, but they could bear it.The point is that this guy's mouth is completely like a crow's mouth.It is not clear whether a good spirit will work or not, but once he says something bad, it will definitely come true.Qingli even suspected that he was not just a chatterbox, but that he was practicing the art of speech.

Because Qingli went down the mountain for the first time, and the elders in the temple wanted her to know about the outside world.So they decided to walk first.If it is almost time, they will use the aircraft before they arrive.Therefore, a group of five people plus a beast that insisted on following—Xiaojin went down the mountain leisurely.

From Qingli's point of view, this trip to Qingyunzong is accompanied by masters (Hengzhen and Hengtong).They just need to enjoy the scenery and experience the customs and customs of various places.This is totally a bad idea.But she forgot that even Tang Seng had to go through ninety-nine and eighty-one hardships when he made his great wish to go west to learn Buddhist scriptures.The experience of Buddhist practice cannot be peaceful.No, we encountered a situation as soon as we came down the mountain.

The cause of the incident should also be attributed to Jing Tong.When she was still on the mountain road, Jing Tong was already talking non-stop, unwilling to be lonely.Seeing that everyone didn't respond to his words, the bear child suddenly said: "Uncle Master, this Qingyun Sect is at least tens of thousands of miles away from our Fahua Temple, right? If we keep walking, I'm afraid our legs will go weak. If the legs are weak , It’s easy to fall when you take a step.”

As soon as Jingtong's words fell, Qingli found that the Buddhist beads hanging on her chest had a faint golden light flashing past.Qingli was still thinking about what was going on, when she saw Hengzhen and Hengtong staggering on the not so rough mountain road.However, Jingwu was the worst one, who fell on the flat ground.Although he got up quickly, he didn't suffer any injuries.But apart from Qingli and Jingtong, the situation of the other three people is very unreasonable.Of course, Xiaojin, who was sitting on Qingli and turned into the size of a fist, was fine.

Qingli, Hengzhen, and Hengtong looked at each other, and then turned thoughtfully to look at Jingtong, who was chirping at Jingwu.Qingli thought of the vision of the Buddhist beads just now, and suddenly shouted in her heart: Amitabha, thank you to the unknown god and Buddha who gave her the golden finger.Let her Qing be able to survive.Thinking about it, Hengzhen and Hengtong, who had already entered the realm of the Little Golden Body, staggered.Let’s look at what happened to Jingwu, who was a little higher in cultivation than her.Qingli thought that the scope of the crow's mouth was too wide.

Li rubbed her forehead, feeling that this trip might not go as she wished.Qingli looked at Jing Tong who was still chattering non-stop, and then at Jing Wu who was blushing, feeling a little sympathetic to him in her heart.Qingli interrupted Jingtong's nagging: "Jingtong, shut up. Monks don't make up your mouths. Besides, in the mountains and forests, don't disturb the tranquility of some spirit beasts. Now is the breeding season for spirit beasts. If we disturb the tranquility of the mother beast, we will be in trouble."

Don't look at Jing Tong as a brat now, but he still knows who he must listen to.So since Qingli spoke clearly, Jingtong immediately said obediently: "Amitabha, disciple obeys. Thank you for your teaching, little master and uncle." Then she really shut up.

Qingli glanced at Jingtong in surprise, and then walked forward first.Until they left the mountains and entered the town, they enjoyed a quiet journey.
