Chapter 116

Xi Lan thought that she could calmly face every word Ning Wanzhui said.

But when she heard her say that as long as Li Huai's heart was with her, Xi Lan's whole heart was still as if it had been scraped by a sword.

I still remember that on the day of their wedding, Li Huai said to her: After so many years, Chaoyang and I are no longer possible!

At that time, what kind of mood did he say these poignant words?
Xi Lan didn't know where his heart was, but he never left his heart on her.

Xi Lan closed her eyes and breathed lightly the air stained with incense ash. She used to like to smell it, but from now on, every time she smells it, she must think of it, right?
"The princess position, which Princess Chaoyang doesn't care about, is now my most precious thing." She reached out and touched her chest, squeezed out a smile, turned around and walked through the treasure hall, towards the Dharma hall in front.

On the way to the Dharma Hall, she had to pass through a square courtyard. The sun was shining outside, and it fell on her face, which was as warm as a grandmother's hand.

Xi Lan looked up slowly, and the elm leaves above her head were emitting emerald green leaf buds. She adored such a towering tree, no matter how many winds and rains she experienced, she could hope in this green season.

She should not fall into the silt of feelings that she cannot extricate herself from, and she should not, like Ning Wanzhu, make a vow to fall into Buddhism in order to exchange terms with the Lord Buddha.

In her eyes, that was extremely stupid.

She went towards the Dharma hall, pushed open the high door, and there were countless blue lamps lit inside, and the surrounding murals were colorful and vivid.

I searched around again, but I couldn't find any monks.

That being the case, she went forward and kowtowed to an ancient Buddha statue burning lamps directly in front of the hall.

There are countless strangers in the Jianghu who are very familiar with Buddhism, and the Long family is one of them.

So you can recite all kinds of Buddhist mantras casually, and Buddhism has profound morals and is inclusive of all rivers. It is also an infinite school of teaching people to do good.

Dad once said that she came from Buddhism in her previous life, so she has a deep root of wisdom, but she violated the precepts later, and I am afraid that she will not have the chance to enter Buddhism in this life!

Just before she got up, a yellow paper scroll fell from the ancient Buddha, which happened to land in front of her knee.

She picked it up and saw that it was a scripture that had been copied.

She didn't know where this scripture came from, but she felt that the Buddhist principles were infinite, so she couldn't help but recite it lightly.

When she was chanting deeply, she heard the sound of wooden fish knocking from the front, echoing in the empty hall.

She hurriedly raised her head to look forward, and at some time, in front of the ancient Buddha, there was an old monk in blue clothes with white beard sitting on his head, knocking on the wooden fish with one hand, while muttering softly: "The wise man is not for life, but for destroying the pure heart, in order to save all people." Sentient beings, always practice the Bodhi practice..."

She didn't know what was going on for a while, but she still knelt there and asked softly, "Master, is it Master Endless?"

In fact, she had never seen Master Endless, but felt that although the monk's robes were simple, he exuded a Buddhist aura that transcended the world, so she guessed that this person was the Master Endless she was looking for.

"Endless suffering, endless troubles, endless merit, and endless reincarnation. The benefactor asked, which endless?"

Xi Lan lowered her head, and after thinking carefully, she replied, "Naturally, it is to let go of the endless misery in the world."

The other party stopped knocking on the wooden fish and looked back at her.

With a kind appearance, one can tell at a glance that he has known him for a long time, and he is an expert who cannot be suspected at Xi Lan's age.

"Finally waiting for you to come!"

Xi Lan was overjoyed, the eminent monk was an eminent monk, so naturally she knew she was coming.

Immediately, he respectfully asked: "The younger generation made a big mistake and caused innocent people to be implicated. I want to stop the evil from happening, but I can't do it. I also invite Master Endless to come out and wish me a helping hand!"

After listening endlessly, he smiled and shook his head.

She was surprised and didn't know what she meant by shaking her head.

Endless said: "You planted this cause by yourself, so naturally you have to solve it yourself. I haven't practiced much in this life as a teacher. The only thing left is the paper Great Vajra Mantra in your hand! Can this help? When it comes to you, it depends on your luck!"

Her eyes were dumbfounded, originally she was thinking of asking Wu Hefei to go with her to deal with that Duan Po, but now He He refused to go, and he didn't even lend her a decent magic weapon, just give her such a Great Vajra Mantra, then she and Isn't Zi Xuyuan going to die?

It doesn't matter if they die, Duan Po is still alive and doing evil, and the evil she committed still cannot end well!
Thinking so in her heart, she still respectfully kowtowed and said: "Since the master has given me the most precious gift, I am really grateful." But she raised her head and asked: "Sentient beings and Buddhas do not invade each other. Mountains are high and waters are deep. The master is a master of Buddhism, can you give me some guidance for the idiots?"

"Sentient beings and Buddhas, even a piece of grass growing by the roadside also has Buddha nature. People in the world are too obsessed, and they don't understand good or bad. Everything changes in a single thought. This world is changing rapidly. Life is death, and death is life. Since he has come, there is a reason for him to come, and it is not a good idea to stop it..."

These words of Master Endless clarified the questions that had puzzled her for a long time. When she wanted to ask about Li Huai's identity as a demon in the world, she was interrupted by a bell from outside!

"Boom-boom-boom-boom..." On the bell tower of Ping'an Temple, the bell rang together, startling the sparrows on the treetops.

Xi Lan looked back, the door of the main hall was tightly closed, and the continuous ringing of the bell was constantly coming.

Recalling that in Donglai Inn, Zi Xuyuan said that something happened, "Does it mean here?"

She looked back, and the endlessness standing in front of the ancient Buddha disappeared without a trace. She didn't even know how it disappeared in such a short time.

She immediately walked out of the Dharma Hall, and saw countless monks rushing towards one place.

She didn't know what was going on ahead, but a young monk happened to be running ahead in a hurry. She reached out and grabbed him and asked, "Little master, I don't know what's going on ahead?"

The monk clasped his palms together, leaned forward to salute and replied: "Amitabha, the abbot of our temple, Master Wuwu, has completed his cultivation and entered Nirvana!"

She heard a 'thump' in her heart, has the endless master passed away?Then who was the eminent monk she met there just now?

In order to find out, she hurriedly ran over with him.

Immediately came to another dharma hall, this dharma hall was more spacious, but did not have any Buddha statues, it was used for monks to chant scriptures and meditate at ordinary times. All of them sat cross-legged on the futons and recited the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Fundamental Vow Sutra".

Xi Lan looked towards the Dharma altar directly in front, and there was a white-bearded eminent monk sitting in the center of it, wrapped in a red cassock, with a Dharma-defining seal in his hand, his eyes lightly closed, his expression was no different from that of Zen meditation, but it was obviously a mortal exhausted.

And the Infinity of Nirvana is indeed the eminent monk who just gave her the Great Vajra Sutra.

The time is only a moment, how could the endless master pass away here?

It was wrong no matter what she thought, and when she was wondering, she remembered the mortal mantra of the Great Vajra, and immediately went to look for it.

Where is the Vajra mortal mantra?When he was at a loss, he saw that on the palm of his hand, at some time, the Great Vajra Mantra had been imprinted.

Only then did she realize that what she saw just now was not the real body of the endless master, but a phantom of the endless master before his death.

Immediately, she respectfully exited the hall, knelt in front of the gate, and kowtowed three times.

After leaving the Ping'an Temple, Ning Wanzhui and the others were never seen again.

Yan Ting and Yan Ming came up to meet him and asked, "Wangfei, does the eminent monk in the temple pass away?"

She nodded lightly.

Immediately take the two of them to the city, hoping to have a round with Zi Xuyuan before dark.

They made an appointment to meet at Donglai Inn, so Xi Lan took the two of them to Donglai Inn to wait.

In the lobby on the first floor, I found a corner and sat down, ordered some appetizers, and Xi Lan allowed them to drink.

As soon as the wine was served, Yan Ming learned to be smart this time and didn't pour it, Yan Ting also sat still.

Seeing the two of them like this, Xi Lan said: "I have tried it with silver needles, and it is not poisonous. You can eat it with confidence!"

Only then did the two brothers put down their serious expressions, but Yan Ting still said: "This subordinate is not hungry, please eat, Madam, I will wait outside!"

Because he was away from home, he was afraid of being called the princess, so he changed his name to madam.

After finishing speaking, Yan Ming walked out of the crowded hall.

Xi Lan knew that he was cautious, so she stopped persuading him!
Yan Ming watched his brother go out, shook his head helplessly and said: "Ma'am, don't be as knowledgeable as my brother, he is too stupid!"

Anyway, the concubine thinks highly of them, what an honor it is to have dinner at the same table with them!

Xi Lan smiled: "Your brother is steady and calm, you should learn more from him!"

Hearing this, Yan Ming felt a little nervous: "Madam speaks the same tune as Wang Ye, they are indeed husband and wife!"

She was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and the words Ning Wanzhui said suddenly echoed in her mind, "As long as his heart is with me, the position of princess is just a title to me."

"Princess, did I say something that made you uncomfortable?" Yan Ming saw her expression, and immediately got up to apologize.

Xi Lan shook her head, "Sit down!"

Yan Ming replied with a bitter face: "This subordinate speaks stupidly. I'm afraid of offending the princess, so I'd better be hungry!"

"Sit down quickly, you are so tall, people will notice me in a while!"

Hearing this, the other party sat down obediently.

She picked up the jug and filled Yan Ming's glass.

"Madam can't do it!" The princess poured wine for him, this guy was so flattered that he almost knelt down on the spot to thank him!

Xi Lan didn't think of herself as a princess at all, but respected them as men, who were easy to talk to after drinking.

"Come on!" She raised her glass.

Yan Ming's eyes were dumbfounded, "Isn't it right for Madam to drink outside?"

"What's wrong, everyone is the son and daughter of the rivers and lakes..." After she finished speaking proudly, she was taken aback for a moment, as expected, she couldn't relax, otherwise she would immediately become Mr. Long.

Fortunately, the other party's brain has always been dull, so he didn't think much about it.

"In that case, Yan Ming will offer a toast to Madam, and wish Madam an early reunion with Master!" Yan Ming said with a smile, looking very happy.

There are thousands of emotions in Xi Lan's heart, and the illusion of the endless master said that since he came, there must be a reason for him to come.

Could it be that the endless master is implying her to let nature take its course and not prevent the demon from entering the world?
"Yan Ming, you have been with your master for so many years, what kind of person is he...?"

Growing up so big, Xi Lan never thought that one day, she would ask such a question to a stupid soldier.

What kind of person?From the first time she saw Li Huai, she could see through his face.

But now that she is married to his wife, she feels like she doesn't know anything about him.

Li Huai had only been away for a few days, but she acted as if he had never appeared in her own world before. The only thing she could connect with him was the concubine that Ning Wanzhu said she dismissed.

What kind of irony is this to her?
"The prince is a very careful person!" Yan Ming recalled Li Huailai, and his face immediately turned into a look of reverence, with some sadness in his seriousness.

"He can clearly remember the injuries of each of our Wangfuwei. For example, my brother has an old injury on his thigh, which recurs every winter. So the prince will pardon my brother to recuperate at that time every year. My brother was injured in the hot spring pool in the mansion."

Xi Lan felt perplexed, would such a good Li Huai really never come back?
"Also!" Yan Ming said, and took out an old book with its pages ripped out from his arms. Xi Lan was a little surprised when he saw that it was "The Analects of Confucius".

Then I heard Yan Ming say: "I was admitted to the Wangfu Guard because of my strength as a cow. I didn't know a single word before, and I was often laughed at by others when I joined the Wangfu Army. This "Analects" was given to me by the Wangye that year. Yes, I can memorize every chapter in it!"

No wonder, the books are all recited like that!

Xi Lan smiled and praised: "He is indeed a good master!"

At this time, a man who looked like a waiter ran over to Xi Lan and said, "Guest officer, was that mighty brother in blue with you just now?"

She looked up, brother in blue?Could it be that you said Yan Ting?

After hearing this, Yan Ming stood up excitedly: "What's wrong with my brother?"
