burning lamp

The demon cultivator's golden core, the Buddha's golden body, and the practice between heaven and earth, except for the years that are stacked up day after day, there is always something to be cultivated.But these two things have always been hard to come by, especially when a Buddha cultivates a golden body of Buddha bones, in addition to years of practice, he also needs to have a very high root of wisdom.Abbot Zhengwu has practiced in Hanyin Temple for 110 years, and it is rare to have a golden lotus gathering on the top, so he was so shocked when he saw the monk in front of him who had a golden body at a young age, breaking the rules for a while.

It wasn't until he finished speaking that he realized that since the other party had this level of cultivation, it was no longer something he could talk about.

Jiang Chen didn't get angry, nor did he open his mouth to explain, but turned to look at Xie Fengshu.

"Go and light the lamp."

Zheng Wu was awakened, and pointed at Xie Fengshu.

"The benefactor comes with me."

Xie Fengshu looked at Jiangchen silently for a while, and finally turned his head expressionlessly and followed behind the abbot.

The second time, he thought.

The first time was in the southwest, when Lang Jin said that Jiang Chen was missing something, Xie Fengshu didn't take it to heart at the time, but this time he was discovered by the abbot who is also a Buddhist cultivator, and Xie Fengshu knew that Jiang Chen was born with a golden body problem.

Once Buddha Xiu got the golden body, he was only one step away from ascension, but he was stuck here for 700 years.

There are no windows on three sides of the Dharma Hall, and the roof is too high to be seen. There is only a skylight at the top, which casts a little bit of light, which is then lost in the bright candlelight of the Buddha lamp.

Xie Fengshu walked among thousands of golden lotuses, and looked up at the abbot who was leading the way.

Zhengwu walked for a while, stopped, and bowed to take an unlit lotus lantern from the water.

"Dare to ask the benefactor, why do you light the lamp?"

"For a woman."

"What's your name and surname, and when was your birthday?"

"..." Xie Fengshu was taken aback, only to realize that Jia Yun hadn't told him the woman's name.

Maybe he didn't even know it himself.

Xie Fengshu said apologetically: "I was entrusted by someone, so I don't know the name, nor the date of birth."

Zhengwu asked again, "What do you want?"

Xie Fengshu thought about what Jiayun said back then, and replied: "I hope she is safe and happy, all wishes will come true."

Zhengwu recited the Buddha's name and sighed, "Idiot."

Who said it wasn't, Xie Fengshu said in his heart, there is another idiot behind me.

Abbot Zhengwu read a paragraph of Sanskrit lightly, and the wick of the lotus lamp in his hand suddenly ignited out of thin air, and the flame of the lamp flickered in the air.Zhengwu put the lamp back into the water and watched it drift away.

Xie Fengshu saluted the abbot, and left the Changming Palace with Jiang Chen.

The two returned the same way, the road in the temple was winding, and there were pine shadows everywhere in the meditation room, Xie Fengshu followed Jiangchen one after another for a while, and suddenly stopped.

Seeing Jiang Chen raised his head, Xie Fengshu first looked suddenly enlightened, and then said helplessly: "Jia Yun told me his name, but I just forgot it. Now that I think about it, it's better to say it."

Jiang Chen looked at Xie Fengshu, who looked back at him frankly.

Jiang Chen said, "I'll go back with you?"

"No need." Xie Fengshu smiled, "You wait for me here, and I'll come back as soon as I say a word."

Jiang Chen looked at him for a while, and finally nodded.

When Xie Fengshu pushed open the door of the Changming Hall again, the lights inside were still bright.

After going back and forth, Abbot Zhengwu probably didn't expect it, and said to Xie Fengshu, "What else is there for the benefactor?"

Without further ado, Xie Fengshu first bowed to Zhengwu, and made a solemn salute.

"May I ask the abbot, where is the monk whose golden body was damaged just now?"

For a while, Zhengwu's expression changed several times, and finally said: "Behind others, don't speak nonsense, why don't the benefactor ask him personally?"

"He won't tell me." Xie Fengshu smiled and said softly, "The abbot doesn't know, I don't do it for other reasons, but I am worried that the damage to the golden body will harm him, he is mine..."

When Xie Fengshu talked about this meal, the words "close relative" and "friend" twitched on the tip of his tongue again and again, but he still couldn't say it out.He felt that he and Jiang Chen could not be called close relatives, and he was inexplicably unwilling to be taken care of by only one "friend".

He was very confused, and in the end he just smiled wryly: "I worry about him, miss him, feel sleepy, and have trouble sleeping and eating."

Zheng Wu looked at him for a long time, finally heaved a long sigh, and said again: "Idiot."

Xie Fengshu didn't say a word, accepted these two words obediently, and made another long bow to the person.Just halfway through this time, Zhengwu stopped his hand.

"The benefactor is destined to be immortal, I can't bear these two gifts."

He has practiced for more than 100 years, since he can see Jiang Chen's golden body, he can also see Xie Fengshu's immortality.Zhengwu said in a slow voice: "Just now, the fellow Jinlian gathered on the top, the golden body has been completed, and it is logical that he should enter the ascension state——

"I don't know why, but a Buddha bone is missing."

His voice echoed in the empty hall, Xie Fengshu frowned: "Buddha bones?"

Zheng Wu nodded and sighed: "The poor monk has never heard of it.

"Don't worry, the benefactor, the Buddha cultivates two bodies, a golden body and a mortal body, if there is a flaw in the golden body, life will not be worrying.

"It's just that the golden body is the most important thing in ascension, and that fellow from the same sect just now—"

Zhengwu didn't continue, Xie Fengshu also understood.

If you can't make a golden body, how can you ascend to the sky? That's why Jiang Chen stayed in Sumeru for 700 years.

But hearing that Yu's life was safe, Xie Fengshu heaved a sigh of relief, cupped his hands at Abbot Zhengwu, and said "Thank you" sincerely.

Finally, a big stone landed in his heart, and when he went out, he looked at the plaque on the gate of the palace and asked, "Which master's calligraphy is this?"

Zheng Wu sent him out of the hall, and replied, "It's the clumsy work of a poor monk."

"Good words." Xie Fengshu boasted, and then said casually, "This hall is called Changming, and the place where I practice is called Wuming, so it's a predestined relationship."

Zhengwu frowned slightly: "Ignorance?"

Seeing his appearance, Xie Fengshu asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"In Buddhism, greed, anger, and ignorance cover our eyes, and we can't see the cause and effect of the past. Because of delusional attachment, we cycle through life and death, which is called ignorance."

Zhengwu shook his head: "It's no problem for immortals, I'm the one talking too much."

Xie Fengshu was taken aback when he heard that, and finally smiled and said: "Thank you, Abbot, for clarifying the confusion."

Xie Fengshu thought about it all the way, and still felt that his fairy mountain was called Wuming probably because it was shrouded in clouds and mist and could not see the sun, and it probably had nothing to do with the Dharma taught by Abbot Zhengwu.

When he was about to reach the place where he was separated from Jiang Chen, Xie Fengshu raised his eyes.

Not far away, Jiang Chen was still standing there, indeed waiting for Xie Fengshu there.

But there was an extra woman opposite him at this time.

The woman looked young, she was dressed in a rouge dress, she looked bright and lively among the green pines and ancient cypresses, and she was smiling at Jiang Chen.

Xie Fengshu: "..."

Monk and Miss, what kind of anecdote is this?

Xie Fengshu walked a few more steps, just in time to hear the other party ask: "Dare to ask the Venerable's Dharma name?"

When Jiang Chen was impatient, his face seemed to be full of frost and snow. He didn't speak, but turned his head indifferently, and happened to see Xie Fengshu not far away.

Xie Fengshu leaned forward, pretending to be surprised and said: "Why did you ask me to wait for a girl?"

It might kill you.

His tone sounded a bit frivolous, the woman opposite was blushing, but still raised her head, her voice was crisp.

"This temple is too big, I lost my way, I want to ask this mage to point it out."

"That's not a coincidence," Xie Fengshu replied, "None of us are from this temple, girl, let's find someone else."

The woman in front of her bit her lip, seemingly unwilling, but Jiang Chen had already turned his head to look at Xie Fengshu, and only this person was in his eyes.

He said, "Let's go."

After walking for a while, Xie Fengshu suddenly smiled.

The old tree blocked the sun, casting a fine light and shadow all the way, covering both of them, Xie Fengshu smiled and said: "I thought you also begged for water from others."

Jiang Chen didn't know about Jia Yun, he frowned in confusion, and looked at Xie Fengshu.Xie Fengshu didn't explain, looking at the person in front of him, a light fell on Jiang Chen's eyebrows, the frost on his face just now had melted away.

Xie Fengshu suddenly called out "Jiang Chen".

I was probably fascinated by ghosts, Xie Fengshu thought to himself, but opened his mouth unconsciously.

"One day you go to beg for alms and ask for a bowl of water. Don't knock on 78's door, only come to me."
