Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 1161 Meeting a bosom friend in high mountains and flowing water

"That day, the monk Wuhuo Dumi of Yungulei Peak set up a large formation outside the capital of Ziyao Tianchao, and threatened that if no one in Tianchao could break it within three days, he would hand over the murderer who killed the Buddhist monk Maha Zang, an old branch of the Three Religions. Wuhuo Dumi was the first one to dare to provoke Ziyao Tianchao like this since the Otherworldly Demon Realm, and this move was a sensation in the martial arts world. Who would have thought that the Tianchao Academy would send out six young talents to break the formation that Wuhuo Dumi was proud of, which was a sensation. The three of you were among them, so how could I not know."

After the joke, Xu Fengnian told the three people their past one by one.

Chi Zixin was not a stingy person to begin with, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that my young master is so famous in the martial arts world."

"Boss." Xu Fengnian called over Fu Changgui, the acting boss of the Boqing Pavilion, and ordered, "All the expenses of these three young men today will be charged to my account."

"Okay, Mr. Feng." Fu Changgui immediately went down to make arrangements.

Xu Fengnian said politely to the three people: "Three of you, I still have an appointment to attend, so enjoy yourself."

The Lost Hero thanked Xu Fengnian on behalf of the three people, "Thank you, Master Feng."

Chi Zixin watched Xu Fengnian leave, stroked his chin and said, "This young master Feng is quite heroic, he has some of my former style."

The lost hero mercilessly exposed the innocent heart and said: "You really know how to flatter yourself."

At this time, an old beggar came in, holding long chopsticks, a broken bowl, and with dog-skin plasters all over his face.

When Chi Zixin saw the gold leaves in the old beggar's bowl, he said, "Old beggar, you wanted to return the gold leaves, but unfortunately you came a step too late and the person has already gone in."

The old beggar's name is Jianjiao Chimao. He is a close friend of Chi Zixin's uncle Beilie Jingtao Qinghaichao, and also his close friend regardless of age difference.

Although this person begs everywhere, he is not greedy and is content with what he has.

I had given him several rewards before, but they were all returned by him.

The old beggar touched the gold leaf in the bowl and said, "This is a reward from Young Master Feng. How can an old beggar like me refuse his respect? But Young Master Hao..."

“…I’m afraid I don’t know yet.”

Chi Zixin was confused and asked, "What should I know?"

"Young Master Feng went in to look for Miss Wushuang. In the past few months, Young Master Feng would look for Miss Wushuang every time he came back."

The Wushuang girl mentioned by the old beggar, whose full name is Yan Wushuang, is the chief courtesan of the Boqing Pavilion. She is good at playing the pipa, is extremely beautiful, has good manners and temperament, and is deeply loved by all the children.

Upon hearing this, Chi Zixin was horrified and asked hurriedly, "What is Wushuang's attitude?"

The old beggar replied, "Miss Wushuang always keeps people here until late at night."

After hearing the old beggar's words, Chi Zixin no longer cared about anything else and hurried to the Wushuang Pavilion in the Boqing Hall where Yan Wushuang was.

The old beggar looked at Chi Zixin's anxious back, shook his head, and asked Leng Hanfu and Shi Lu Yingxiong, "Do you mind if I sit down for a while?"

Leng Hanfu said: "The senior is Chi Zixin's elder, and he is also our elder, so why would we mind it?"

The old beggar nodded with satisfaction, took a seat and said, "Chi Zixin is really lucky to meet you."

Leng Hanfu smiled and said, "You are too polite, Senior. But why do you want to play tricks on Chi Zixin?"

The old beggar laughed and said, "Young man, how do you know I am joking?"

Leng Hanfu replied: "Looking at the way you treat Chi Zixin, you treat her like your own son or nephew, but Miss Wushuang has fallen in love with someone else, how can you not be anxious about it?"

"Ha~"

Inside the Wushuang Pavilion of the Boqing Pavilion, Yan Wushuang and Xu Fengnian played the zither and the qin together. The music was melodious and pleasant, with high and low sounds, and the lingering sound lingered in the ears for three days.

Chi Zixin stood outside the pavilion, his heart sinking. When he heard the sound of the two pianos, he understood that they were like soulmates meeting each other.

After the song was over, the door of the pavilion opened wide.

"Miss Ying'er, you don't have to think about sending me off. Please express my gratitude to Miss Wushuang for bothering me for such a long time."

Xu Fengnian told the maidservant beside Yan Wushuang not to see him off and strode away.

Chi Zixin rushed into the pavilion without waiting for the maid to lead her, and saw Yan Wushuang put down the zither in her hand.

Yan Wushuang saw Chi Zixin rushing in and asked, "Well, Hao Shao, why are you here?"

Chi Zixin stepped forward and said, "If I don't come, the woman I love will be snatched away by someone else."

Yan Wushuang covered her face with her jade hands and asked angrily, "Who is your woman?"

Seeing Yan Wushuang's reaction, Chi Zixin felt relieved and asked, "Then what is your relationship with Xu Fengnian?"

Yan Wushuang tried to avoid misunderstanding and said, "Young Master Feng and I are friends who play the zither. Young Master Feng asked me to help him complete the ten famous pieces because his wife's birthday is coming up and he likes music and he also heard that I am proficient in music theory. The piece Fang played was the last piece we completed."

"I see." After listening to Yan Wushuang's explanation, Chi Zixin felt relieved.

However, after this incident, Chi Zixin finally realized what was in his heart and confessed to Yan Wushuang: "Wushuang, it's been so long, don't you understand my feelings? As long as you nod, I will go back to Luecheng now, and I will definitely get my mother's consent to marry you." When Yan Wushuang heard Chi Zixin's confession, her cheeks flushed, and she nodded and replied, "Yeah."

"Great, I will go back to Lue City today and let my mother arrange for you to marry me."

Just after Chi Zixin left happily, the maid Ying'er did not seem happy and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Miss…"

Waving his hand to let Ying'er leave, Yan Wushuang came to the dressing mirror and remained silent for a long time.

After a long silence, Yan Wushuang took out a treasure chest about two feet high from the dressing table, opened the bottom layer, and took out the pearls, jades and jewelry worth thousands of gold.

She carefully picked up a brocade box hidden at the innermost part and opened it. Inside the box lay a gilded flower-and-pearl hairpin.

Yan Wushuang picked up the hairpin lightly and looked at it carefully.

Her thoughts went back to the scene when they first met, and they played a song together called "Autumn Moon over the Han Palace". This was the first gift he gave her.

The two began with "Autumn Moon over the Han Palace" and ended with "High Mountains and Flowing Water".

He had given her many things, but this hairpin was her favorite and the only gift she kept.

Leng Han created the Heartless House and went his separate ways with the Innocent Heart and the Lost Hero.

The lost hero wanted to accompany them, but Leng Hanfu declined, saying that the trip was a confidential matter taught by the master and it was inconvenient for others to go together.

As a student of the same academy, the lost hero had naturally heard of the Master's name.

The Master is the most mysterious person in the academy, except for Emperor Huo and his direct disciples and the thirteen teachers in the academy.

Even though he was of high status, the Taoist Master Tai Shangfu, who worked in the academy, had only met the Great Master.

The mountain behind the academy was given by the emperor himself and is privately owned by the master. It is not for major celebrations or emergencies.

When important matters are stationed abroad, the palace is usually not open to the outside world without the Master’s summons or a warrant from the Thirteen Gentlemen.

The twelve gentlemen plus Leng Hanfu, the new thirteenth gentleman of the academy, had the opportunity to meet the Master, the true master of the academy, and receive personal guidance.

As a student of the academy, the lost hero understood that it was the teacher's instructions, and Leng Hanfu must have important matters to attend to on this trip.

As for the confidential matters that the Master was talking about, it would be inconvenient for others to go along, so I stopped pursuing him.

So he returned to Baitaolue City with Chi Zixin.

After separating from the two, Leng Hanfu walked in the wild forest, and Geng Gui emerged from his shadow.

"Kou Jie (^o^)"

Leng Hanfu was picked up by Geng Gui and touched his forehead with both hands.

As for Geng Gui, Leng Hanfu no longer had the mature and prudent demeanor he had in front of others. Instead, he showed the youthful vigor and ease that a teenager should have. He said with a smile, "A-Xuan, ever since you killed Tanhui last time, you have been locked up in the back mountain by your teacher to practice "Three-part Return to One" to strengthen your foundation. It's a rare opportunity for you to go out this time, so you should take a good walk."

"口桀(ˊωˋ*)" Gengar also waved his hands happily, his body floating up and down in the air.

"However, my teacher told me that my chance this time is in Tianfo's hometown, and the key lies in this strange body of mine." As he said that, Leng Hanfu took out a piece of strange iron from his sleeve.

Geng Gui stared at the strange iron with eyes wide open, wanting to help Leng Hanfu see through the mystery of the strange iron.

The strange iron changed in Leng Hanfu's hand, sometimes like a knife, sometimes like a halberd, changing according to the owner's mind. "I brought this piece of strange iron out from the Purple Mansion. I nourish it with Yin and Yang Qi and three parts of true essence every day. It is not inferior to any magic weapon in the world. I just don't know what secret it has. Teacher, tell me too. It's really troublesome."

"Koujie(*^▽^)/" Geng Gui patted Leng Hanfu's shoulder and cheered him up.

Leng Hanfu thought: "According to the teacher, ordinary people who want to enter the Heavenly Buddha Homeland need to go to the Cave of All Forms and Pass the Trial. But from what the teacher said, the Heavenly Buddha Homeland seems to have another entrance, but I don't know where I should go?"

The Heavenly Buddha's Hometown is the supreme holy place for Buddhist practice created by the Yogacara school and Jade Bodhi to gather the Buddhist thoughts of all living beings. It is ethereal, supremely holy, mysterious, and where thousands of Buddhas gather. It is extraordinary and sacred, and compatible with all Buddhist schools.

Yu Bodhi is not only the founder of the Heavenly Buddha's hometown, but also the one who created the holy vessel of Tathagata to be given to the demon Buddha Mara.

The special thing about the Heavenly Buddha's Hometown is that it does not exist in this world. It is built by the Buddhist thoughts of all living beings, and illusion and reality coexist.

Therefore, the changing landscape of the Buddhist hometown is equivalent to witnessing the changes in the three major periods of the transmission of Buddhism: in the period of the true Dharma, the Buddhist hometown was magnificent and brilliant with seven treasures; in the period of the Dharma-Image, the Buddhist hometown was washed away of all glitz and glamour, and although it no longer had its former glory, it still had a solemn atmosphere; in the period of the Dharma-Ending, it was a pile of broken walls and ruins.

The original form of the Buddha's hometown was the realm of cleansing sins of the filthy Buddhas, absorbing the original sins of the Buddha practitioners, and when the practice is complete, the sins are purified by the practitioners' own merits. After a long time, the Tianfoyuanxiang has become a noble and mysterious organization of Buddhism.

Long ago, the Li clan ravaged the Bitter Realm. Lou Zhi Weituo, as the "Buddha of Heaven", led the Bitter Realm Buddhist sect to fight back and sealed the "Li of Heaven" in the Endless Sky Peak with four swords.

It was also because of the battle between Fo and Li that the strength of Foxiang was greatly damaged, and he has been in seclusion since then.

Now, the Master asked Leng Hanfu to go to the Tianfo Hometown to look for opportunities and provided the location of the Zongxiang Cave, but also told him that there was not only one entrance. It was obvious that he had some considerations in mind.
