Unsurpassed Spirits

Chapter 307 Departure
Xiao Jie's original name was Niu Jie. He began to practice Buddhism after entering Wuliang Temple. After entering the golden elixir stage, he was given the name Juehui by his master. The other two Buddhist practitioners were both his fellow disciples. They were middle-aged. Hao Jueming, who looked like a late-stage Jindan, looked at the oldest Hao Juekong.

Luo Qingli was a little curious about Jue Hui's experience over the years. At that time, such a young child, alone and helpless, came to Wuliang Temple after crossing the vast sea. This was an incredible thing for a monk, let alone Xiao Jie was just an ordinary person back then, so the hardships involved must be unimaginable.

Juehui touched the top of his bare head and recounted the events one by one: "The Niutou Village was burned down by fire back then. The immortal compensated me with a lot of gold and silver. I took these as payment and set off for the seaside."

A little boy, who knew almost nothing, relied solely on his enthusiasm, and endured countless hardships before he finally saw the sea.

If you want to go to sea, you have to take a big ship or borrow a teleportation array, but mortal gold and silver are worthless in the eyes of the immortal cultivator. He has no spiritual stones and can only work in the fishing ground. This is how he spent several days. Years ago, he only had a few spirit stones saved in his hands.

Just when he thought he might be like this for most of his life, one day, a Buddhist cultivator was washed up on the beach by the sea. This Buddhist cultivator was his current senior brother Master Jueming. It was precisely because of meeting him that Juehui became the There will be a later destiny.

Master Jueming said with a smile: "The poor monk came to that beach because of an accident. Junior Brother Juehui was just a young man at that time. He wanted to practice Buddhism. The poor monk thought that he had some fate with him, so he took him with him. I followed him to Penglaizhou."

After hearing this, Lu Heng couldn't help but sigh, "This is really good luck."

Otherwise, it would be really difficult for a mortal to cross the sea to Penglai Island.

"Indeed, I felt that I was very lucky at that time." Juehui also nodded, "It's just that practicing Buddhism requires wisdom, but I don't have any talent in this area. When I arrived at Penglaizhou, I was only in a secular temple. Become a sweeping monk, chant sutras, eat vegetarian food, and sweep the dust all day long..."

Lu Heng raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Since Juehui calls Luo Qingli sister, she must be in a grade younger than her. She has reached the golden elixir stage at this age, and she has not started learning since she was a child. If this kind of thing cannot be called a wise person, then what can others do? live?
Luo Qingli also had the same doubts. Juehui should have formed elixirs at an earlier age than she did. He became a monk halfway, and it was already a great achievement to achieve this.

Juehui seemed to see their doubts and said calmly: "Actually, half a year ago, I was still a mortal."

Now both of them were shocked.

Master Jueming and Master Juekong laughed and said nothing, but did not interrupt, which showed that what the other party said was true.

Juehui continued: "I have been sweeping the floor in the temple for more than 30 years, but I have never really stepped into Buddhism. I wandered around in the early years, and my health is not good. I age faster than other believers. Half a year ago, I was He is old and dying."

Wuliang Temple occupies an entire island. Under its influence, Buddhism is also flourishing on the surrounding islands, and many secular temples have been built. If any of the mortals who practice in these temples can truly step into Buddhism and become Buddhist practitioners, there will be Qualified to enter Wuliang Temple.

There is no shortage of believers in Wuliang Temple. There are those who come here because of its reputation, and there are also children who have been sent to the temple to practice since they were young. However, among so many people, very few can finally enter Wuliang Temple.

At that time, Juehui was not one of these lucky ones.

He lay on the bed, feeling the strength in his body being drained bit by bit, and feeling the approach of death.

Through the window, he saw the long steps that he had swept tens of thousands of times, and decided to sweep them one last time.

The young monks were chanting sutras in the temple. He listened to the chanting and took the broom to sweep step by step with great difficulty. Gradually, he could hardly even stand still.

He propped himself up with a broom and looked at the Buddha statue high up and the curls of cigarettes, feeling calm in his heart.

Maybe he really wasn't that good, and after chasing it all his life, he ended up being no different from the millions of ordinary people in this world.

But if life happened again, he would still choose this path.

Now that I am about to die, although I have regrets, I have no regrets.

Juehui is happy.

At that time, his eyes were brighter and clearer than they had ever been before. A ray of Buddha's light suddenly fell on him, and Juehui's heart suddenly became bright and clear.

After leaving the gate of hell, a threshold that had not been touched in 30 years suddenly opened to him. His aging appearance suddenly returned to youth overnight, and even his cultivation level jumped thousands of miles, directly entering the golden elixir stage.

Master Jueming sighed: "Master said that my junior brother, Wan Hui, has become enlightened now, and will be able to realize the Great Way in the future, so he was given the name Jue Hui."

Luo Qingli and Lu Heng felt eye-opening after hearing this experience.

I have indeed heard of the theory of becoming a Buddha immediately before, but this is the first time I have seen a real example.

However, Buddhist practice and Taoist practice are inherently different, and there is no need to generalize them. And people like Juehui are actually quite rare even among Buddhist practices.Recalling this, Juehui felt a lot of emotion, "The two people Juehui is most grateful to today are senior brother Jueming who brought me to Penglaizhou, and the other is sister Pei Yao."

Luo Qingli coughed slightly and felt that it was necessary to change the title back, so he introduced it again, "Sorry, Taoist friend Juehui, in the early years when I went out, I used pseudonyms. Pei Yao is not my real name. My surname is Luo, my Taoist name is Guilan, and this is my senior brother Lu Chengfeng."

Juehui smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter what the name is, as long as I recognize the benefactor, that's enough."

The two parties were officially acquainted. It was a rare thing to meet again in this strange place. Everyone drank tea instead of wine and toasted each other.

Master Jueming asked: "Since the two donors are fellow townsmen of Juehui, they should be from Nanzhao. Are they here to participate in the sea market?"

Luo Qingli nodded, "Yes, my senior brother and I originally came to the East China Sea for a trip. When we passed Baitong Fairy Island, we were invited by the third young master of the Zhu family to participate in the sea market. We just arrived on the island yesterday, and today we walked around. Are fellow Taoists also here for Haishi?"

Master Jueming nodded with a smile, "There are thousands of changes in the sea city, and there are many Buddhist small worlds among them, and there will also be good opportunities. Junior Brother Juekong and I went there once more than 70 years ago, but Junior Brother Juehui was real. The first time."

Luo Qingli looked at Jue Hui. He only became a Buddhist cultivator half a year ago, and he suddenly had the power of a high-level monk. In this case, he went directly to Haishi?
Juehui touched his head and said with a smile: "So I have to ask my two senior brothers to take care of me."

A few people chatted about other things, and a soundproof barrier was placed around them. Not only could the sounds from outside not come in, but outsiders could not hear what they said.

Lu Heng thought for a while and suddenly said: "I have a question, and I would like to ask three fellow Taoists to answer it."

Master Jueming sat up straight and said, "Donor Lu, please speak."

"It's like this. Before this, my junior sister and I also knew about Haishi. We heard that there is a Fangling Lake in Haishi that knows everything. We also heard that Zen Master Wujian of Wuliang Temple had seen this Fangling Lake. Although it is There are rumors, but Lu is really curious, is this true or false? Several fellow Taoists are all Masters of Wuliang Temple and are disciples of Zen Buddhism. Have you heard of it?"

Lu Heng asked directly. Luo Qingli paid attention to the faces of the three people opposite him. Juehui looked confused as if he didn't understand. Master Jueming looked as usual, but Master Juekong, who had been silent all the time, frowned almost imperceptibly. .

Master Jueming shook his head and laughed: "True or false, is it so important?"

Lu Heng also smiled and said, "Let's just satisfy Lu's curiosity."

Master Jueming smiled lightly and said nothing, but it was Master Juekong who said an empty statement, "When the fake is true, the true is also false, and when the true is false, the false is also true."

Lu Heng: "..." The monk is quite good at deceiving people.

Luo Qingli shook his head secretly, thinking that these two mages probably knew something, but he obviously didn't intend to tell them to outsiders.

If that's the case, then it's not easy for them to ask more questions.

The two soon started talking about something else, and Juehui asked, "Donor Luo, Donor Lu, what are your plans after you come out of Haishi?"

Luo Qingli glanced at Lu Heng.

Zhu Yuzhen, the second half of the Ning Yuan Jue, has been found, and the rest is about the heart of the wind. They originally said that they would go to Wuliang Temple to meet Zen Master Wujian, but now the disciples of Wuliang Temple Zen Sect are in front of them. Luo Qingli didn't hide anything, and said frankly: "Our travel is not over yet, we should go to Penglai Island."

"Will Luo Shi want to come to Penglai Continent?" Juehui was a little surprised. "If the donor comes to Penglai Continent and wants to visit Wuliang Temple, Juehui will sweep up the bed to welcome him!"

"Thank you very much, Taoist friend Juehui."

After sitting in the tea house for a while, Luo Qingli and Lu Heng returned to the inn. It was indeed a big surprise to meet an old acquaintance this time.

Lu Heng was rarely quiet along the way, and Luo Qing said strangely: "You're not still thinking about Ling Lake, are you?"

"The monk refuses to tell. How can I come up with any clues by myself?" Lu Heng shook his head, "Speaking of which, since those monks are Zen Buddhists who do not kill, wouldn't it be very inconvenient to enter the sea market?" ?”

Luo Qingli was amused, "We still have the ability to protect ourselves, and what we see now are only three people in their team. The other two are not necessarily all Zen sects. Look at our team, aren't they? Is it the same mixed bag?"

Speaking of his team, Lu Heng also smiled, "It would be best if we can maintain peace on the surface, but if not, then we will have to separate and not work together."

The day for the opening of the sea market was getting closer and closer. When this day finally arrived, several large ships were parked on the pier. Many Jindan monks gathered together and stood with their respective companions. After waiting for a while, they I saw six Yuanying monks coming through the air, standing on the mast, looking down at everyone.
