The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law

Mu Xingye naturally has nothing he doesn't want to do.

He is a bit pedantic, but not stupid.

Being a gatekeeper under the Tiandu Immortal Envoy is not a punishment, it is clearly an opportunity.

Thinking about it this way, he became less disgusted with helping Zhang Daoyuan build a house. Instead, he looked forward to finishing the house soon so that he could work as a security guard at Wutong Residence.

For Li Muchen, having a gatekeeper like Mu Xingye frees him from a lot of worries.

Ma Shan will go to Haojiang soon, and after the summer vacation, Lin Manqing will also go back to Nanjiang University to study.

Once they left, Bai Jingjing was the only master left in Wutongju.

Bai Jingjing is still a "demon" in the eyes of those practitioners.

He didn't want what happened to Li Zhai twenty years ago to happen in Hecheng.

Mu Xingye is an innate master and an elder of the Zhongnan Sect. With him here, Wutongju is basically safe.

Next, Li Muchen still has many things to deal with, not to mention going to the Nine Netherworld of the Underworld, and the matters in Zhumen Town are also imminent.

Zhu Xiaoyuan summoned martial arts comrades from all over the world to attack Li Muchen, with the purpose of drawing out the five envoys of the Demon Sect.

I don't know how effective it will be now.

The five envoys of the Demon Sect, Lu Xian and Tantai Yu, are dead, and the Black Water Flag and Taibai Flag among the Five Elements Flags of the Demon Sect have also fallen into Li Muchen's hands.

There are still three left, Tong Hao, Ye Xianlin, and Gong Xian, as well as the three flags of red, yellow, and green.

Li Muchen had a premonition that if he got all the Five Elements Flags, he would be able to enter the underworld and go down to the Netherworld to find his mother.

As for his father, he is not sure whether the illusion he saw in the secret realm of Tianchi Lake in Mount Baektu is true or false. However, judging from the clues he has now from twenty years ago, finding Yue Xianling in Wangwu may be able to know whether his father is dead or not. died.

Mu Xingye followed Zhang Daoyuan to Wangjiangshan to move bricks, and Li Muchen and Lin Manqing set off for Jinling Zhumen Town together.

They did not go to Zhu Xiaoyuan first, but strolled around Zhumen Town casually, observing the people coming and going.

This year's Zhumen Town is many times more lively than in previous years. All hotels and B&Bs are full, and all kinds of people come, including many strange people.

Among them were many masters from various places, some came in response to Zhu Xiaoyuan's call, and some came to watch the fun.

But what makes Li Muchen strange is that in addition to people in the martial arts world, there are actually many people in the Xuanmen who have obvious fluctuations in mana.

At noon, they walked into a small restaurant.

It's hot outside, but the air conditioner is on inside, so it's cool and refreshing. It's like two worlds.

There are only twos and threes, but the seats are almost full.

The waiter guided them to the only empty table in the corner.

Because it is located in a corner, there is no air circulation and it is a bit stuffy. Seeing their gorgeous clothes and extraordinary appearance, the waiter asked them if they wanted to change tables with the people next to them.

An old man and a young man were sitting at a table next to them. There were two large bowls of noodles on the table, and only the soup was left.

Both of them have short hair. The old man is in his sixties. His clothes are simple but very clean.

The boy was about sixteen or seventeen years old. His eyes were wandering around, as if he was full of curiosity about everything.

As soon as Li Muchen and Lin Manqing came over, the young man stared at them. When his eyes fell on Lin Manqing's face, he seemed to be attracted by a magnet and could no longer move away.

Lin Manqing frowned slightly, but didn't take it seriously. After all, the young man was about the same age as Lin Yun.

Li Muchen glanced at them and felt that they looked familiar.

The waiter probably ordered two bowls of vegetable noodles because he saw that the two people occupied a table. He was already almost full and wanted to chase them away, so he asked them to change tables.

Lin Manqing stopped him and said, "Forget it, we'll sit over there, it's quieter in the corner."

When she said this, the waiter didn't know what to do. Don't say that people haven't finished eating yet. Even if they finish eating, you can't force them to leave while they are sitting.

Li Muchen and Lin Manqing sat down.

The waiter asked them what they wanted to eat.

Lin Manqing glanced at the menu and ordered two bowls of noodles.

Li Muchen has long been able to live without the world, and now Lin Manqing is almost the same, but since he is walking in the world, he still needs to have some sense of the world.

If you order two bowls of noodles in a stir-fry restaurant, especially when business is booming at noon, you can imagine that the waiter will not look down upon you.

"Damn it, people are so stingy today!" the waiter muttered and left.

Li Muchen and Lin Manqing looked at each other and smiled, not caring.

The young man at the table next to me is still looking at them

Suddenly I heard the old man say: "Don't look at it, that's my wife. You're not blessed enough. No matter how much you look at it, you can't steal it away."

Li Muchen and Lin Manqing both laughed in surprise.

The old man's words sounded rude, but there seemed to be nothing wrong with him.

But the young man said: "Because you can't steal it, you have to look at it a few more times, otherwise you won't have to look at it. Master, don't you look at it?"

"What am I looking at? You're already a long time old, and you don't have the ordinary mind anymore." The old man said.

"Then last time you peeked at a widow taking a bath in the mountains!" the young man said.

"Amitabha!" The old man suddenly recited the Buddha's name, "You brat, don't talk nonsense! Why am I peeking? I plan to return to secular life and go home to find a wife. She is the wife who was introduced to me. I always want to take a look first. .”

"Then when people chased you out with sticks, why did you run away?"

"Amitabha, I'm not running away. I've seen through the mirror and want to stay away from the worldly obsession."

"Master, aren't you going to return to secular life? Why do you want to stay away from the world of mortals again? Then do you still want a wife?"

"Begging for it, of course I have to ask for it."

"What about my mistress?"

The old man picked up the noodle bowl, lowered his head and took a sip of the noodle soup, savoring the taste: "It's in this soup."

The young man was puzzled and looked down at the soup in the bowl.

The soup was just like that, mixed with a few remaining sections and two green vegetables, with a layer of oily flowers floating on it, so turbid that not even a shadow could be seen.

"I want to drink."

The young man picked up the noodle bowl and took a sip of soup.

"What does it feel like?" the old man asked.

"The taste of noodles." said the young man.

"Is there any noodles in the soup?"

"Gone."

"That's right, there is no noodles in the soup, but you can taste the noodles, just because the noodles are in your heart. There is no master's wife in the family, and I can enjoy the taste of the master's wife, just because the master's wife is in my heart. You stare at others Look, you can’t steal someone’s wife. Close your eyes and she will be in your heart.”

The young man seemed to understand, looked at Lin Manqing again, and then closed his eyes.

The old man took the opportunity to pick up the bowl in front of the young man and drank the soup in the bowl cleanly.

"Do you have it in your heart?" the old man asked.

"Yes." The young man closed his eyes, his face full of joy.

"Well, you can open your eyes then."

The young man opened his eyes and saw the empty bowl in front of him. He was surprised and said, "Hey, where is my noodles?"

"The noodles are already in your heart. It doesn't matter whether there is some in the bowl or not."

"Huh? But I'm still hungry!"

"Stop thinking about noodles, the beauty in your heart has run away!"

"But I still think the interview is more important."

The old man nodded and said earnestly: "So, thinking about women is something you have to eat when you are full. Disciple, you have learned another lesson today, and you are getting closer and closer to becoming a Buddha."

The young man looked like he had some enlightenment: "Thank you, Master, for your teaching. But, Master... I want to have another bowl of noodles!"

Li Muchen and Lin Manqing finally understood that the old man and the young man were two monks, and the thick hair on their heads was newly grown.

And Li Muchen also remembered why they looked familiar. He had seen these two people before.

That time at Zhaobaoshan in Yongcheng, he and Sister Mei broke through the ancient formation underground of the Liu family's ancestral home, and after subduing the dragon soul, they met two monks, an old man and a young man, on the mountain.
