Chapter 306: Mountain Village Strange Talk (1)
Shaolin Temple is located at the western foot of Shaoshi Mountain in the Songshan Mountains, and Shaoshi Mountain is located west of Dengfeng. It is still a long way from the place where I encountered a mysterious woman to Shaolin Temple. When Pu Zixuan flew to the steps of the gate of Shaolin Temple, his purification power was exhausted. After landing, he ran along the steps in a hurry. Even the young monk who was sweeping the floor on the road couldn't help but stop and looked at the guest who was ragged and embarrassed.
After entering the gate, Pu Zixuan didn't stay for a long time, so he ran to Yu Xiangdi's room quickly.
At this time, Yu Xiangdi had been meditating on the bed in his room for nearly half an hour, and was in a vague and harmonious state between entering into meditation and falling asleep. The door was suddenly pushed open with a "bang" sound, and he was completely unprepared. He suddenly felt that Feng Yu had been disordered for a while and couldn't help but open his mouth and shout, "Who is so rude?"
"It's me, Pu Zixuan!" Pu Zixuan walked straight to the bed and gasped, "Hurry, can you find Xiaojiu's breath?"
Yu Xiangdi was already a little unhappy because he was disturbed by the Qing Xiu. Seeing Pu Zixuan's attitude, he said angrily: "Amitabha, I am practicing, but suddenly I was interrupted by the donor. The current wind speech is disordered and I can't sense all things in the world. I hope the donor will forgive me."
"I didn't ask you to use the wind of Luo Shizi to explore!" Pu Zixuan said hurriedly, "Just use your purifying power to see if Xiaojiu's demonic energy is in Kaifeng Prefecture... No, all Henan is looking for it!"
Yu Xiangdi wondered, "What? Since that's the case, why don't you explore it yourself?"
"My purifying power has been used completely." Pu Zixuan also realized that he was a little abrupt, and lowered his voice and said, "Just just now, at the Shangshankou, I fought with an unidentified purifying messenger. Although I drove away the enemy, the purifying power has been exhausted. In addition, I also encountered two guys who are both enemies and friends. They said that Xiaojiu's demonic energy disappeared along with the breath of the fragments of the "Huanyue Jue". Then I hurried back to find you to confirm it."
"Ah? How could such a thing happen... Okay, I'll take a look first." Yu Xiangdi was shocked and finally understood Pu Zixuan's impatience. Then he stopped talking and started to search for it with the power of purification.
After a while, Yu Xiangdi sighed and said sadly: "I'm sorry, I've searched all over Henan, and I really can't find Chen Shuqing's demonic aura. You may..."
Seeing that the last glimmer of hope was also shattered, Pu Zixuan's heart suddenly felt cold. Before Yu Xiangdi finished speaking, he asked again: "Where is Abbot Huiyuan? I have to go and see him!"
"He should be in Xiaoshu's wing room, waiting for you to buy medicine."
Without saying a word, Pu Zixuan turned his head out of Yu Xiangdi's room and rushed to Sun Xiaoshu's room. The door was open. From outside the room, Guo saw Huiyuan sitting on a wooden chair, quietly observing Sun Xiaoshu, while Sun Xiaoshu was lying on the bed, talking nonsense.
After entering the house, he heard it more clearly. Sun Xiaoshu closed his eyes and stuttered: "There is a red rooster crowing under the tree..."
Huiyuan also cooperated kindly and said, "Yes, yes, there is a red rooster crowing..."
The scene seemed to be like a caring parents coaxing a one or two-year-old child, which made Pu Zixuan feel quite moved.
Before Pu Zixuan could speak, Huiyuan had already heard Pu Zixuan's footsteps, turned sideways, saw the burlap bag in his hand, and smiled with relief on his face, "Donald Pu, have you bought all the medicine?"
"Yeah, here."
Seeing that Pu Zixuan's face was solemn and that his clothes had been cut into several cuts, Huiyuan couldn't help but frown and asked, "Why did you do this?"
So, Pu Zixuan put the burlap bag on the table, repeated the words he had just said to Yu Xiangdi to Huiyuan, and asked: "Master Abbot, I hope you will tell me where is the Shaoxing Mountain in Kaifeng Prefecture? What are its characteristics? I have to go and see it in person immediately."
"Amitabha." Huiyuan slowly stood up and said seriously, "It seems that Donor Chen should have encountered something. Donor Pu should indeed go there in person. However, since you have lost all the power of purification, even if I tell you, how can you go?"
"My purifying power has been recovered more or less. I can fly as far as I can. After using it, I will rest. After recovery, I will fly again and will always fly."
Huiyuan was stunned and comforted, "I can understand your mood, but people say 'hazard will not be achieved'. If you follow your idea, maybe it will not be there for two or three days. It is better to keep your energy well and accumulate your strength for a night. After the purifying power is completely restored tomorrow morning, it will not be too late to fly away in one breath. In that way, you can arrive at the evening of tomorrow at most."
Pu Zixuan actually understood that forcibly using the only purifying force will only make it more difficult to recover, just as a very tired person who forced himself to stay up late and worked hard will inevitably be unsustainable. So he sighed helplessly and asked again: "Then, can you tell me what is strange about the Shaoxing Mountain?"
Huiyuan thought for a while and said, "The most peculiar thing about Shaoxing Mountain is that there is a village inhabited by thousands of people on the top of the mountain called Lianshou Village. When I was very young, I followed the village chief's request and went there with a group of Shaolin children to help them eliminate some of the invading mountain beasts."
"A wild beast?" Pu Zixuan felt a little enlightened in an instant and asked, "It's not a monster, right?"
"It's hard to say, because we ordinary people cannot detect the aura of monsters. At that time, Ziyu had not yet met my first generation Xiqu. At that time, we didn't even have the concept of "monsters" and "monsters". Those beasts were mostly large animals such as tigers, wolfs, bears, and crotchs, but some of them looked strange, such as wolves with three eyes and foxes with horns on their heads..."
"Isn't that a monster..." Pu Zixuan said with a little reproach, "Since there is such an important message, why didn't you tell Shuqing in advance? If you knew that there were monsters on the mountain, I should go with her no matter what I said!"
"I apologize for this." Huiyuan took the initiative to take Pu Zixuan's blame and said, "I didn't say that it was because we had wiped out those things back then. Over the years, Lianshou Village has not sent anyone to Shaolin Temple for help. Of course, I feel that there is no need to talk about this matter. If you talk about it, it will make people feel that I am showing off. Moreover, why did the Donor Chen's breath disappear? Whether it disappeared after reaching Shaoxing Mountain is still clueless... In short, it is useless to worry. Why has Donor Pu been anxious for the time being? It is better to relax your heart for the time being. After all, you have experienced so many hardships together, not only have you survived, but also become stronger, right?"
Huiyuan's words were very helpful. Pu Zixuan suddenly recalled that it was not once or twice that Chen Shuqing was isolated from his breath, but in the end they were all together again without any danger. His emotions were relieved and he said softly: "I'm sorry, I'm really too impatient. Yu Xiangdi also said that if I can't control my emotions well, it will be a karma on my path of cultivation."
"Haha, young people, if they see through everything early, it may not be a good thing." Huiyuan comforted, "It is human nature to develop emotions. The meditation that Buddhism emphasizes is not to eliminate emotions, but to learn how to live with emotions, to observe and absorb them. At this point, even Ziyu has not yet understood it, let alone the donor Pu."
At this time, Sun Xiaoshu said in a daze again: "Brother Pu, kill the old monster, kill him..."
"Okay, okay, Brother Pu beat him to death immediately!" Pu Zixuan turned his attention back to Sun Xiaoshu, comforted Sun Xiaoshu with words, and smiled bitterly on the corner of his mouth, and shook his head, "This child, he is so sick that he still doesn't forget Brother Pu, it really makes my heart feel all kinds of feelings... Master Abbot, you have a lot of trouble and spend so much time taking care of him, I really can't repay you. I want to give some silver to the temple to express my gratitude, I don't know if it's appropriate."
"Amitabha, what's wrong?" Huiyuan said seriously without any hypocrisy, "People often have some misunderstandings about temples, thinking that monks should not be contaminated with these yellow and white things, especially Shaolin Temple, should be role models in the world. They do not know that as I said, we are born as human beings, we will never completely cut off the limitations of the body and mortal fetus. If the donor is willing to donate some merit money to improve the conditions for our temple, it is a blessing for our temple. I should accept it with a shameless face and express my deep gratitude for this."
