White Snake: I am a Swordsman

Chapter 60 Fahai: Where does such a good thing come from?

The breeze blows, and the willow branches sway gently.

"It's time to return the gift, but my brother is a Buddhist. I'm afraid he wouldn't be interested in worldly things. I have to think carefully." Xu Xian played with the eight treasures of Buddhism given by Duobao, and felt a warm feeling in his heart.

These eight objects all contain strong Buddhist nature.

With some casual tempering, it can become a powerful Buddhist magic weapon.

But Duobao’s intentions go beyond this.

In the rich Buddhist nature, Xiaobai and Xiaoqing's evil spirits were completely suppressed, and they became almost the same as ordinary people.

As long as they don't cast magic, no one can tell that they are monsters!
Xu Xian felt grateful.

He understood that Duobao was truly thinking about him and hoped that he and Xiaobai could live in peace without being disturbed by those practicing cultivation.

"Let's go back first." Xiao Bai whispered, "Don't let others see it."

Xu Xian nodded slightly.

These eight objects all have unusual shapes. If others see them, they might bring disaster upon themselves.

He closed the box and carried it into the yard.

Xiaoqing is cleaning up the dishes.

This was originally Xu Xian's job, but Xu Xian was out, so she did it.

Seeing the two of them coming back, she asked curiously, "What kind of gift is so mysterious that it can't be given in person but must be hidden under the tree?"

"It's all here." Xu Xian put the box down.

Xiaoqing came over and opened the box.

"Hey! Not bad!"

Xiaoqing looked at the eight Buddhist treasures in the box with surprise in her eyes.

She doesn't know much, but she can tell the good from the bad.

"Your senior brother looks so plain, without any bright colors on his robes, but he is so generous. You really can't judge a person by his appearance!" Xiaoqing reached into the box and took out a jade lotus.

Each leaf of the jade lotus is as thin as a cicada's wing, and the textures on the leaves are lifelike.

In the gaps between the textures, there are extremely detailed Buddhist scriptures.

There are characters on both sides of the leaf. If you look closely, you can see that each character is carved with vigor and power, and the strokes are extremely clear.

Xiao Qing studied the fine carvings on the lotus leaves and said in amazement: "I think if we sell these things, we'll get at least a few hundred taels of silver, right?"

A few hundred taels of silver? Xu Xian shook his head secretly.

This is an excellent embryo of a magic weapon, which is superior to the mundane world. It cannot be bought with silver, even gold!
Xiaobai walked over to Xiaoqing, and she took out a jade double fish from the box, and said admiringly: "This is a token of my brother's love, which cannot be measured by silver."

"That's right." Xiaoqing shrugged.

She suddenly remembered that she was feeling sad on Xiaobai's wedding day and forgot to give Xiaobai a gift.

Is it too late to make up for it now?

She blinked and turned to look at Xu Xian: "I washed the dishes today, but there is not much water at home. Go get some water."

"Okay." Xu Xian nodded slightly.

He walked into the corner, picked up the bucket, turned and walked out of the yard.

He closed the door casually, and the footsteps gradually faded away.

Xiao Bai looked at the eight Buddhist treasures in the box and sighed sincerely: "Your senior sister is well-spoken, and your senior brother is a great Buddhist monk."

"I really don't know how your master taught you to produce so many good people!"

She recalled the appearance of Master Xu Xian.

He is very ordinary, just like an ordinary old man, and it is difficult to distinguish him in a crowd.

“No matter how good a person is, he is still just a mortal.”

Xiaoqing didn't take it seriously. She said nonchalantly: "A hundred years later, you and I will still be young and beautiful, but they will all be dead bones in the grave."

Tuk-tuk-tuk!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the yard.

"Why are you back so soon?"

Xiaoqing tilted her head.

"Maybe the bucket is leaking." Xiaobai put down the jade fish and walked leisurely to the gate of the courtyard.

Creak—the gate opened, and Xiaobai was slightly startled.

The person knocking on the door was not Xu Xian, but a young monk in a monk's robe.

He has sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, a cold face and thin lips, and exudes an aloof temperament that keeps strangers away.

He stared at Xiaobai intently.

"You are..." Xiaobai looked doubtful.

Just as one monk left, another came.

Is this also your fellow apprentice?

The monk spoke slowly, and his words surprised Xiaobai: "I am Fahai, the abbot of Jinshan Temple in Zhenjiang. I entered the city today and saw the Buddha's light lingering in the sky above your house."

Xiaobai was stunned.

She only heard the two words "Fahai" and nothing else.

She couldn't help but feel her heart tighten.

Fahai!

It is said that Fahai, who hates demons, actually looks like this. He really has a cold and heartless face.

The reason he came to my house today must be because of Xiaoqing and me!
What should I do now?
At this moment, Xiaobai was in a state of confusion.

She finally found Xu Xian, finally got married, finally lived a peaceful life
If we fight with Fahai in broad daylight, all of this will be lost!

what should I do?
".I came to visit you specially." Fahai finished speaking.

Xiaobai came back to his senses.

She thought to herself, if she could avoid taking action, she would.

I’m not afraid even if a real fight breaks out. Xiaoqing and I have both survived the dragon calamity, and our strength has greatly increased!

Maybe we can take down this monk without any effort?

But you can't do it in the alley.

She calmed down and forced a smile, "It's Master Fahai. It's windy outside. Master, please come in and talk."

"Thank you." Fahai stepped over the threshold.

Xiaoqing looked at Fahai and asked with a suspicious look: "Sister, what is this?"

She wasn't paying attention just now and missed Fahai's self-introduction.

"Xiaoqing, this is Master Fahai, don't act rashly." Xiaobai stood behind Fahai and tried his best to wink at Xiaoqing.

"Fahai?" Xiaoqing widened her eyes.

Damn Xu Xian, he insisted on going to Jinshan Temple to seek marriage. Now, the great monk from Jinshan Temple came to his door!
It seems that a fierce fight is inevitable!
Xiaoqing clenched her fists.

She looked at Fahai and wondered, should I show him some sword skills first, or directly transform into my true form of a dragon?
"Please forgive me for my rudeness."

Suddenly, Fahai said, "I wonder how the two girls got these things?"

He didn't notice Xiaoqing's eyes.

As soon as he entered the door, he was attracted by the eight Buddhist treasures on the table.

These are the sources of Buddha’s light!
The Buddha nature in these objects is even stronger than that in his golden-haired lion.

Each one of them is a rare treasure, worthy of being enshrined in a large temple like Jinshan Temple and enjoyed the worship of hundreds of thousands of pilgrims!
"Why do you care where we got it from?" Xiao Qing said unhappily.

Xiaobai was a little surprised.

She noticed that when Fahai entered the room, he stared at the eight Buddhist treasures on the table, and his eyes never once shifted to her and Xiaoqing.

"Master, are you here for these things?" Xiaobai asked tentatively.

She had a vague feeling that, although it was a bit absurd, Fahai might not have come for her and Xiaoqing.

"That's right." Fahai looked solemn.

Xiaobai winked at Xiaoqing, signaling her to stay calm.

She whispered, "This is a wedding gift from a senior monk to me and my husband. Is there anything wrong with that?"

A monk? A wedding gift?
Fahai frowned and said in a deep voice: "These are all Buddhist treasures, rarely circulated outside!"

"I wonder what the monk's name is?"
