Although the result was not perfect, Kezi still regained the body of the beautiful white-haired girl and the two incarnations of Naiyako. She was satisfied and prepared to go back to Fomalhaut first, but after this farce ended without a problem, Xia Bodhi He was leaving too, but before he left, he didn't forget to ask the cat goddess who had fought side by side.

"Where are you going, you won't be staying in Loulan?"

"I wanted to take revenge on that bastard Naia once, but it still didn't work. It's really boring."

The Cat Goddess sighed. She has stayed in this sloppy Loulan for more than 200 years. Although time is not worth mentioning to the ancient gods, it is still very depressing to waste time in the end.

"I'm going back to Egypt. Although the civilization of the ancient Egyptians who believed in me has been cut off, that place is still worth remembering."

The Goddess of Cats is about to return to her hometown. She is not very interested in the civilizations of the Central Plains and the East. After all, Buster is the god of cats. She only likes places and civilizations where cats are worshiped as masters.

"So farewell."

Different roads, Xia Bodhi went east, and Black Cat went west. After bidding farewell to the cat goddess, the Xia Bodhi people have returned to the inland of the Central Plains.

After going through so many things, even Xia Bodhi was exhausted enough. Others couldn't stand it. Go back to Jinshan Temple first, and Chang'an City is better not to go. God knows that I went to that place to meet old monk Huai Su, that person Will Grass Saint release some tricky tasks for himself again, he doesn't want to continue to run groups.

"You seem to encounter many adventures when you travel abroad."

"There are no adventures, but there are constant disasters."

Back at Jinshan Temple, Zen Master Lingyou greeted him immediately, and he seemed to feel the exhaustion of Xia Bodhi. The old monk didn't continue to ask, he just gave an order.

"Go to Chang'an City with me tomorrow, Master Huai Su passed away."

"Um....?"

Xia Bodhi was stunned when he heard this, the old monk was not a strong man who could kill a tiger without any problem, why did he pass away suddenly? !

But he thought about it, it seems that when he was on Fomalhaut, he asked Naiyazi to cover up and sent many people back to the world. At that time, Li Bai and Bai Juyi were among them, because Master Huai Su saw When his friend returned, he could finally achieve consummation without obsession.

"Really.... If you want to pass away, let's wait until I come back and hand in the task."

After muttering this in a low voice, Xia Bodhi didn't have much to say. He went to Chang'an City with Zen Master Lingyou the next day. Before the Ci'en Temple, Zen Master Lingyou also called Fahai.

"Master Huai Su is an eminent monk with perfect merit and virtue. Although he has passed away, he might as well take you to see him for the last time."

Fahai used to be a scholar, how could he have never heard of the name of Grass Sage, and now he followed Zen Master Lingyou to Daci'en Temple with full of respect and expectation, and Master Huaisu publicized that he had passed away long ago, and the temple also Only a handful of people know the details.

Zen Master Lingyou is the host of Jinshan Temple. His visit was greeted by the host abbot of Da Ci’en Temple in person. Because everyone is an insider, the abbot of Da Ci’en Temple did not talk much, and directly took the visiting guests to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda of the temple. , opened the underground palace mechanism, and came to the lowest hall.

The white jade coffin that once sealed and suppressed Concubine Yang is no longer there, only an old monk who has passed away sits cross-legged here, with his eyes closed peacefully, as if he just fell asleep.

"Amitabha, I didn't expect Huai Su to be one step ahead of you, so kind."

Zen Master Lingyou was filled with emotions. He thought that he would pass away first, but he did not expect that Huai Su, who had been unable to achieve consummation for a long time, would achieve his obsession. This must be thanks to Xia Bodhi's help.

"This is what Master Huai Su left before his death. He left a letter for me to pass on to you."

Xia Bodhi is a frequent visitor of Da Ci'en Temple. The abbot knows him well and knows that he has a close relationship with Master Huai Su. Now he has passed on the relics left by the old monk before his death to the person concerned.

Xia Bodhi took it in his hand and looked at it. It was a letter. He opened the letter and read it... Ma Dan, Kuangcao, I don't understand!

"Fa Hai, come and read."

"Hey! Brother, don't you know how to read?"

"Master Huai Su's crazy grass is flying and dancing, and only you literati who can pass the Jinshi exam can understand it."

"Oh I see."

Ordinary people learn to read and write in Hanli, and the cursive script is difficult to recognize, let alone the wild cursive written by Huaisu Caosheng. However, Fa Hai never expected that the omnipotent Xia Bodhi in front of him would have such shortcomings, but In this way, I suddenly feel that the senior brother is much more approachable.

After receiving the letter from Xia Bodhi, Fa Hai read it out.

"My friend Li Bai is back. I heard that it was Xia Bodhi that you went to the realm of the gods that day. Huai Su was speechless and grateful. If you can return safely and see this letter, old monk, I have one last merciless request. "

"I will pass away, and the golden body left behind will not be damaged, and will not be invaded by water or fire. I should have stayed under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to guard one side, but the old monk is not grateful."

"I have refined the golden body. This is Huai Su's last and only gift."

There was only so much content in the letter, and after Fahai finished reading it, he was a little confused, so he turned to Xia Bodhi to ask.

"Brother, what does Master Huai Su's letter mean? By the way, have you done any earth-shattering events?"

"Don't ask, my brain hurts..."

Xia Bodhi rubbed his brows in pain, he hadn't thought about what kind of reward this old monk Huai Su could give, but he really didn't want his life. Let's be tough.

"It's good, it's good..."

Zen Master Lingyou shook his head and sighed, Huai Su, why bother? The old Zen Master reached into the cassock and took out a bowl, walked to Huai Su's golden body and put down the bowl. At this moment, the golden body seemed to be affected. What traction turned into golden powder and merged with the bowl, and then a golden bowl appeared in front of everyone.

"Before the eminent monk passed away, if he cultivated the indestructible golden body, there are two ways to deal with it. One is to stay in an important place in the temple to guard one side, so that no demons and evil spirits dare to approach; the other is to refine the golden body, which can be destroyed. Attached to the utensils to become the highest dharma utensil of my Buddhism."

Chan Master Lingyou explained his actions, took up the golden bowl and handed it to Xia Bodhi, saying:

"This is a thank you gift from Huai Su, please accept it."

"I reject!"

Don't even think about it, Xia Bodhi refused without saying a word, how disgusting he would use the magic weapon cast by other people's golden body, it feels like he is using other people's bones to fight, the thief should be good what!

But seeing the strange eyes of Zen Master Lingyou and Fa Hai, he still made a reasonable explanation.

"What I do is what I should do. I don't ask for thanks or anything in return, but I will feel uneasy if I accept this golden bowl. I feel that I am ashamed of Master Huai Su."

"Good, good, good... great good."

"Brother, I will definitely learn from you."

Zen Master Lingyou nodded in satisfaction, and Fahai was full of admiration. At this time, Xia Bodhi just found a turning point, and he said by the way:

"Why don't you let Fahai hold this golden bowl? He is still a little practiced now. I hope you can hold this golden bowl and learn from Master Huai Su. He is a grass sage. You were also a literati. He is an eminent monk, and so are you." A monk who has just entered the Samana."

"That's fine, Fa Hai, just take this golden bowl."

Zen Master Lingyou also thought it was reasonable, so he handed the golden bowl to Fa Hai, and Xia Bodhi made a plan quietly, and the troublesome thing was successfully shaken.

Chapter 5 The Origin of the White Snake (Dawei Tianlong Painting Style)

==============================

Master Huai Su passed away, and it is a pity that there is no old monk who issued the task, but this is enough.

"Fahai, go back to Jinshan Temple as soon as possible after finishing your family affairs."

Zen Master Lingyou and Xia Bodhi are going back to Jinshan Temple first. Before leaving, the old Zen master did not forget to tell his disciples that since they are already monks, they should not be bothered by worldly affairs.

If Fa Hai was still a scholar, he would have to stay at home to mourn for his father Pei Xiu for three years, but now that he has become a monk, he should go back to Jinshan Temple after he has settled his affairs after his death.

"I know Master, I will go back sooner."

Fa Hai sent Zen Master Lingyou and Xia Bo to the gate of Chang'an City to say goodbye. He had no brothers and sisters in his family, and his mother had already passed away. Donate these family properties to relatives, so that you can go back to Jinshan Temple to practice without any worries.

"By the way, when you go back to Jinshan Temple, help me bring back some ancient biographies."

"Hey! Brother, what do you want these for... By the way, you have already returned to Jinshan Temple?"

"I got some injuries. I need to recuperate in the temple for a while. The ancient books and biographies are from the Han Dynasty. I need to investigate some things."

"Brother, are you injured?!"

Fa Hai was stunned for a moment. He saw that Xia Bodhi was clearly alive and well, and he didn't look like a normal person at all. However, Xia Bodhi showed Fa Hai his right hand hidden in his sleeve. This right hand was covered with golden cracks. It really made him gasp.

"This kind of injury! Don't worry..."

"It's okay, I know best myself."

Xia Bodhi waved his hand to tell Fa Hai not to worry, because the injury was caused by his own hacking, and now he is going back to Jinshan Temple to be a rice bug for a while, so he needs a suitable excuse, such as~~~ Back to Jinshan Temple to recuperate.

In short, after Fahai saw Xia Bodhi's cracked right hand, he realized that his senior brother must have done something against the sky. Looking back on the suicide note left by Master Huai Su to Xia Bodhi before his death, it should be the same as what was stated in it. It is related to the "Heavenly Gods", which is daunting and attractive at the same time.

Fahai, who was intimidated, did not dare to ask any more questions. He turned around and prepared to collect some ancient books and biographies recorded in the Han Dynasty. Xia Bodhi and Zen Master Lingyou returned to Jinshan Temple together. On the way back, the old monk suddenly sighed and asked about Taoism. :

"Why did you tell Fahai about your injury?"

"What does it matter? He is the future pillar of Jinshan Temple anyway, and he will know this sooner or later."

"Would it be too early to let him know about the "Gods Beyond Heaven"..."

Zen Master Lingyou’s worry is that ignorance is also a kind of happiness, especially when it comes to matters related to the gods outside the sky, the more you know, the easier it is to fall into the abyss and quagmire. It is not an exaggeration to say that even the old Zen master is ashamed of himself. Master Huai Su said that he is the reincarnation of the Buddha. Xia Bodhi is already the most holy in the world.

"Don't worry, your old man will pass away in a few years. At that time, Jinshan Temple will definitely let Fahai be the pillar."

"how about you?"

Hearing Zen Master Lingyou's worrying inquiry, Xia Bodhi just showed the old Zen master his entire right hand. The golden cracks had already covered the upper and lower sides of his right arm, which was shocking to see.

"I'm going to fulfill my destiny."

"Ugh......"

After Zen Master Lingyou sighed, he stopped talking and asking more questions. He should have understood all this a long time ago. The saint who descended from heaven naturally has a destiny, and the moment the destiny is fulfilled, the saint will leave.

Heaven and demons are in trouble, and saints come to the world, all of these have their own destiny.

After Xia Bodhi returned to Jinshan Temple, he continued to happily live his life as a rice worm. He slept in the palm of the Buddha stone statue on the mountain all day long. He brought a lot of ancient biographies from the Han Dynasty, but he had something to pass the time.

"Brother, what are you looking for in these books?"

Although Fa Hai's current cultivation skills are not very strong, he feels that he is a literati who has been admitted to Jinshi, and his skills in books are no worse than others. Besides, Xia Bodhi said that he can't understand cursive script.

"Do you remember the Lanruo Temple we visited before? There are more or less inexplicable things in the ancient temples and Taoist temples built by dynasties thousands of years ago."

"Do you want to find these clues from ancient biography!"

"That's pretty much what it means."

After hearing Xia Bodhi's words, Fa Hai immediately became excited. He didn't delay Xia Bodhi's reading time. After paying his respects to Zen Master Lingyou by himself, he planned to go back to Chang'an City to collect more related things. Well to help find it.

"Young man, you have a lot of enthusiasm, it's so good~!"

Xia Bodhi shook his head, he closed the book and put it aside, then fell asleep again.

Having a tool man is really useful. After Xia Bodhi told Fa Hai deliberately, he was more active in looking up information than himself, which saved a lot of trouble.

But it's useless to want to relax, and when Xia Bodhi was about to take a lazy nap, an unexpected visitor arrived.

Concubine Yang, no, it was because Ke Zifei, who was leaning on Concubine Yang, landed on the head of the Buddha stone statue. She looked down at Xia Bodhi who was sleeping in the palm of her hand, and asked aloud:

"Have you found her yet?"
