(10) Lonely Night

Although the woman in white clothes in front of her had her hair a little disheveled due to the rain, she still had an alluring appearance.

She has a standard beauty face with a pair of bright eyes like deep autumn water; a small nose and cherry red lips; and her temperament has a fairy spirit, like a goddess descending to earth.

Although today's "Goddess" was a little embarrassed by the rain, the young monk could still recognize her as the beauty in white clothes and carrying a flower basket that day.

The young monk saw that all the white clothes on the beauty's body were soaked and clinging to the woman's body, and her graceful and exquisite figure was clearly visible.

At this time, the young monk was stunned again. When he found that the woman in front of him was smiling brightly at him, he realized that it was against the rules for a monk to stare at a woman. For a moment, he was panicked and at a loss.

"Donor, I'm going to get you a hand towel for your washing." The young monk rushed out of the door in a panic and almost tripped over the threshold. He raised his head and glanced at the butterfly sheepishly, picked up an umbrella at the door, and

He rushed outside in a hurry.

"This little monk is really interesting." Die looked at the flustered appearance of the young monk and held back a smile. She didn't know that the young monk had never seen such a stunning beauty like her.

Die took advantage of the young monk's time to look for her sister Mo in the Buddhist temple.

After searching around the hall, she finally found the cocoon on the pillar behind the altar. She called to the moth, but there was no response from the cocoon.

She simply thought that her sister might be practicing there, so she continued walking around the temple without thinking too much.

Since the rain kept falling without any intention of stopping and it was getting very late, the young monk had no choice but to let Butterfly stay here. However, the monk was not allowed to have too much contact with women.

So the young monk invited Die to stay in the only guest room in the temple. He had to sleep in the main hall tonight. I believe the Buddha statues in the hall can forgive his good intentions.

Seeing that the white clothes on the woman's body were soaked by the rain, the young monk brought her one of his own monk's clothes and said that if she didn't dislike it, she could put it on to prevent herself from catching a cold.

That dormitory was once the place where the young monk and his master slept together, but now he was alone, which was quite lonely.

(11) Dance

At night, the young monk was lying on the ground covered with only one layer of quilt, feeling a little chilly and unable to fall asleep. After tossing and turning, he got up, twirled his beads and recited sutras silently to calm his mind.

"Little Master, are you asleep? I can't sleep." A female voice like silver bells sounded behind the young monk.

The young monk looked back and saw that it was the lovely butterfly. She had now changed into the monk's clothes.

Although they were old men's clothes and were a little loose for Die, they still couldn't hide the beauty's exquisite appearance and good temperament.

"Donor...how do you...?"

"I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to come and see what you were doing. I wonder if it disturbed the little master's rest?"

"The donor is overly worried. It's just that you are different from the poor monks and men. Besides, it's late at night, so this isn't appropriate..."

"I'm just a little girl and I don't understand those secular rules."

"..." The young monk didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Let me dance for you."

"Female donor, this is the Buddhist temple..."

"I'm dancing in the yard."

The young monk was speechless again. At this time, the rain outside had stopped, and the butterfly jumped and floated towards the yard and started dancing happily.

In addition to enjoying pollen and nectar and playing around, butterflies' favorite thing to do is dance.

Watching the beauties in the courtyard dancing gracefully, with light movements and graceful figures. Even though the same white monk's robe is worn out, it looks like a white water lily floating among the ripples on this woman's body, which is full of beauty...

The young monk was stunned again, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he had never seen such a beautiful person, even though many pilgrims who came to the temple to pray often praised his appearance.

(12) Accompanying

In the next few days, the butterfly did not see the moth come out of the cocoon. She thought that she would still have to wait for her sister here. Since the young monk saw her own human form, she might as well keep appearing in the temple in her human form.

Butterfly is an alien who has not experienced the worldly affairs of the world. She does not understand the precepts that a monk should abide by, nor does she understand the etiquette of teaching and receiving between men and women.

Seeing the young monk's frequent embarrassment and his modest and kind personality, she liked to get close to him.

After all, without my sister's company, I would be too lonely if I stayed alone in the mountains.

The young monk often emphasized Buddhist teachings and ethics to Die, but she wouldn't listen. She still often chatted with him and would dance immediately when she was happy. Sometimes he would also pick bright flowers from the mountains and place them in the temple.

When the young monk asked her why she didn't go home, she would make up some random excuses.

One month flew by, and Die came to the temple almost every day to look for the young monk. After not seeing him for a day, she felt as if something was missing and empty in her heart.

However, Xiao Monk also felt the same way. He had actually discovered the change in his heart, but he just didn't want to admit the fact.

"Just call me Xiaodie." Die smiled sweetly at Xiao Monk, then remembered that after being together for so long, they still didn't know each other's names.

"My name is Yikong."

Yikong felt that his Buddha's heart was no longer firm and he had become involved in the affairs of the mortal world. He recalled his master's last words to him and felt extremely ashamed.

(13) Breaking the precept

That day, Yikong burst into tears in front of the Buddha statue. Perhaps he was tired of crying and fell asleep.

That night, he also saw a person in his sleep. That person was the kind-faced old monk with white beard, and he was his master.

Master told himself that he was destined to become a Buddha. If he devoted himself to the Buddha and meditated to the Buddha with all his heart, he would be able to achieve bliss when the time comes.

However, if you choose to live in the world of mortals because of the tribulations, you will not be able to achieve righteousness.

As for the direction of his heart, he needs to make his own decision.

In his dream, he asked Master: Don't you blame him?

Master said it was not strange. Although he was a monk, he was born as a human being and was still young. It was normal for him to yearn for the world of mortals. However, he encountered fate and the cycle of cause and effect, and he might have to bear unknown consequences.

Her dance, her smile, and her beauty were all deeply impressed in his heart, so he could no longer devote himself to standing in meditation before the Buddha.

In the end, he failed to keep the rules and regulations and broke them. At night, he knelt in front of the Buddha statue all night with a variety of thoughts.

(14) Human world

Finally, he got his hair renewed and returned to secular life.

He and she flew together and spent more than a month in a loving relationship. They decided to leave the temple together and start a new life outside.

At this time, Die, who had fallen in love and had no other thoughts, remembered his sister who was still cultivating in the cocoon, so he took her sister's cocoon with him and went to live with Yikong in the outside world, and began their life as a husband and wife, with men farming and women weaving.

.

Like many fairy tales, Yikong soon discovered Die's true identity, and Die frankly told him everything.

To her surprise, he didn't mind the fact that he was a demon.

Die also told him about his sister Mo.

Only then did Yikong realize that the moth that accompanied him back then was indeed a spiritual being. He just didn't expect that she was already quite accomplished. He was very grateful that the moth had accompanied her through that lonely and dark time.

After another three years, the moth finally emerged from the cocoon and could transform into a female form in a relatively short period of time.

Although her appearance is not as good as Die's, which can enchant the whole country, she can still be regarded as a beauty.

She began to be very grateful to Butterfly for waiting for her. But when she knew that her sister Butterfly was already very close to the person she liked, she went crazy.

She thinks Die betrayed her!

She practiced hard in the cocoon for several years, but Die took away her most beloved person! But she did not tell Die about her pain and hatred.

She has to calm down and pretend that she is fine because she still wants to stay with the person she loves.

She decided to stay and live with Die and Yikong.

Although it would be inconvenient for three people to live together, they still accepted her because Yikong knew the relationship between Die and Moth very well. Die also cared about this sister very much.

(15) Thorns

After the moth maintains its beauty form for a period of time, its magic power will expire and it will often turn into a half-human moth form, which is very scary.

The few times Yikong saw him, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground or ran away in panic.

Looking at Die's appearance, I often wonder, if I had her beauty, would I be able to pay more attention to myself?

She began to think about how she could maintain her human form longer and look more beautiful all day long.

She learned about a forbidden technique from other demons that could maintain her appearance.

In this way, the thorny road paved by the moth becomes darker and has no end...

Without telling Die and Yikong, she used her beauty to enchant young men, poisoned them with moth powder, and then sucked their essences to maintain her human form and beauty.

She would absorb half of her essence to prevent those people from dying. She also knew that if she killed someone and was discovered by the supervisor, she would be punished.

At first it was once every half a month, then it became once every few days, and finally it was often once a day.

The reason why it is called forbidden art is because there is a price to pay for practicing it. If you practice it for a long time, it will be backlashed. It is very likely that you will fall into the devil's way in the future and will not be able to ascend to immortality.

Moth knew in his heart: This deep attachment to Monk Yikong and his obsession with practicing forbidden arts because of his appearance were all the fate that the person in the dream said many years ago when he was a spiritual insect when he was a spiritual insect, and he encountered it during his cultivation, right?

(16) Heavenly Way

A few years later, Yikong began to suffer from serious illnesses.

At first he had a cough, then he was unable to work, and then he was bedridden and unable to go to the ground. Butterflies and moths took turns taking care of him.

Butterfly washes her face with tears all day long.

Medicine, conveying spiritual power, looking for fairy grass... She tried every means to keep Yikong alive, but she still couldn't fight his illness. But she still refused to give up, always hoping in her heart that he would get better.

The moth was very desperate. At this point, he felt that Yi Kong's disease was incurable.

For so many years, she had been using forbidden techniques to maintain her beauty because of her obsession with Yikong, but when she knew that his time was running out, she felt that she suddenly lost her desire for beauty and her longing for life.

She did not say goodbye to Die and Yikong. She finally returned to the temple and stayed there by herself all day long, neither drinking nor eating, and she no longer sucked human essence.
