burning lamp

Jiang Chen stepped back a little, and then replied, "Books."

Xie Fengshu had never heard of it, he put down the paper full of words in his hand, and answered truthfully: "I don't understand."

"You don't need to understand this." Jiang Chen replied.He put the things on the desk aside, Xie Fengshu couldn't relax, so he got up to look at the lights on the desk.

The three heavy wooden desks were taller than himself, and the black lamps on them were next to each other. The lights were on and off. When Xie Fengshu walked around, there was a little wind, and the shadows of the candles on the wall shook slightly together.

Xie Fengshu reached out and touched one of them lightly, and was worried that Jiang Chen would be angry, so he quickly took it back, then turned around and asked, "Why are you lighting so many lamps?"

Jiang Chen felt that it was unbelievable that he and Xie Fengshu were discussing the ever-burning lantern together, but Xie Fengshu's eyes were as bright as a pair of glazed beads under the light of the candle. The ancient giant dragon in front of him is just a little monster who has just transformed into a form less than 200 years ago.

So Jiang Chen answered patiently: "This is not my lamp."

"There are many people in this world who are restless and full of delusions, so they light a lamp, hoping to get out of the sea of ​​suffering and get what they want."

What he said was a bit esoteric, Xie Fengshu didn't understand what he heard, looked again at the many lights in front of him, and asked: "Is there your lamp in here?"

"No, I don't have any request." Jiang Chen looked at Xie Fengshu, "If you have one, I can order one for you."

Xie Fengshu's eyes lit up, and he felt that this monk was really a good person.But he stood in front of the lantern table and thought hard for a long time, and finally said: "I don't seem to have one either. I have a master and a senior sister, and I have the annoying ghost Xiaoxi by my side. Now I have a monk friend, and I have enough."

Jiang Chen choked on the title "monk friend", and asked instead, "Don't you want to ascend?"

Whether it's Taoism, Buddhism, or demon cultivation, it takes hundreds or even thousands of years, just to become a god in one day.

Jiang Chen thought that Xie Fengshu's transformation time was too short, and he didn't know what the meaning of ascension was, so he explained in a very simple way: "It means going to the sky to become a god."

When he killed Ying Long back then, he owed him a karma after all. If Xie Fengshu wanted to become an immortal, he would have repaid the karma by converting him himself.

If the gods of the fairy world who persuaded him to come heard this, they would probably faint from fright.Jiang Chen looked indifferent, just waiting for Xie Fengshu's answer.

"I know, my master is the big monster who has cultivated for the longest time in Mount Sumeru. Maybe he will ascend to the ascension one day, and other monsters are envious of him."

Xie Fengshu finished speaking with some pride, and thought of Lu Qiwu holding the wine jar and refusing to let go, he couldn't go on talking for a while, he sat back in front of the desk again, looked at Jiang Chen across a table, and was a little curious Ask: "Is becoming a fairy fun?"

…………

Jiang Chen didn't know whether to answer first whether it was fun or not, or tell Xie Fengshu that becoming a fairy was not for fun.Before he could figure out why, the young man in red in front of him waved his hand: "Forget it, I don't understand a monster, and of course you don't."

Jiang Chen, who didn't quite understand: "..."

Xie Fengshu sat cross-legged on the ground with a pillar behind him.He was unsteady and his head was shaking: "I don't want to become a fairy, Mount Sumeru is very good, it has everything, and there is nothing missing, and the hawthorn fruit in the back mountain is also ripe-do you eat hawthorn fruit, next time Shall I bring you some?"

Jiang Chen didn't know why the topic suddenly jumped from Chengxian to hawthorn fruit. He was silent for a while, and asked: "It's getting dark, should you go back?"

Xie Fengshu glanced out the window, then quickly stood up and patted the ashes off his body: "Then I'll come to you next time."

... Jiang Chen thought: What do you want me for?

But before he could say it, Xie Fengshu had already pushed the door open and ran away in a hurry.

He went back early this time, all the way through the mountains and into the forest, when he arrived at the Mingjingtai, it was just dark, Xie Fengshu walked through the mountain flowers in the middle of the mountain, and saw Lu Qiwu sitting in a hidden place under the plane tree with his back to him, most of his body was covered by the tree trunk, I don't know what I'm doing.

Xie Fengshu slowed down, approached on tiptoe, leaned over behind Lu Qiwu's ear and asked, "Master, are you secretly drinking again?"

Lu Qiwu heard people's voices suddenly, he was so frightened that his three souls and seven souls shifted, the wine jar in his hand tilted, and most of it was spilled.

He took a deep breath in distress, turned his head to Xie Fengshu and said angrily, "Little bastard, you scared me to death!"

Then he raised his hand and coughed twice, and said, "Do you still have to sneak around to drink for the teacher?"

Xie Fengshu curled his lips: "Senior Sister only lets you drink one pot a day, and you drank it at noon today—"

His voice was quite loud, Lu Qiwu hurriedly dragged him to sit beside him, first turned his head to look around carefully, then lowered his voice and said, "Hush down, don't let your senior sister hear you."

Xie Fengshu gave him a look of contempt, and he suspected that Lu Qiwu lied to him when he said that he was about to ascend.

Thinking of this, Xie Fengshu asked: "Master, would you like to be a god?"

Lu Qiwu took a sip of his wine, narrowed his eyes comfortably, his gray beard was blown by the mountain wind, and fluttered in the air.

"Okay, if you become an immortal, you will live forever."

"Isn't it true that one day I die, but the master is still there?"

The next moment, Lu Qiwu slapped Xie Fengshu on the back of the head: "Bah, bah, it's unlucky to die!"

Everyone is a monster, why do you still care about this.Xie Fengshu was a little aggrieved, and asked with humiliation: "Can gods eat snacks?"

Lu Qiwu: "..."

"Melon seeds, chestnuts, hawthorn?"

"...What is this mess?" Lu Qiwu squinted at Xie Fengshu, "Do you want to eat snacks from the mountain?"

Xie Fengshu nodded honestly: "When will senior sister or Xiaoxi go down the mountain again?"

Lu Qiwu looked at his eager little apprentice, and drank the last sip of wine in the altar with a smile, and said: "The sixth day of July is Xiaoxi's birthday, and the seventh day is your birthday. Before your birthday, I promise you the next trip to the mountain. What to buy yourself."

The sixth day and the seventh day of the seventh month are the days when Xiaoxi and Xie Fengshu transformed into forms respectively, so Lu Qiwu regards this day as the birthdays of his disciples.Xie Fengshu regained his energy, straightened up and asked excitedly: "Really?"

"When has Master ever lied to someone?"

Xie Fengshu counted the days, and there were more than 20 days left. He was satisfied and thought about what to bring.

Halfway through the thought, he suddenly asked, "Master, what do monks eat?"

After speaking, he added a little unhappy: "Don't talk about eating monsters."

Lu Qiwu touched his nose: "The monk is a vegetarian."

Xie Fengshu's eyes widened: "Don't you eat meat?"

"Neither eat meat, nor see killing, nor see blood, these are precepts."

Vegetarian, afraid of blood, afraid of killing, what is the difference between this and the rabbit spirit on the opposite mountain.

At that time, Xie Fengshu didn't know that apart from the first one, everything else was useless to Jiang Chen, and Jiang Chen in his heart suddenly became a fragile little white flower, which was equated with the timid rabbit spirit on the opposite mountain. .

Such a person is alone in Mount Sumeru, what should he do if he can't find food, what should he do if he meets a big monster with high mana?

Xie Fengshu felt a sense of responsibility spontaneously: since he is the friend of the other party, of course he must protect him.

Jiang Chen didn't know that he had become a rabbit in Xie Fengshu's heart, he just felt that Xie Fengshu appeared too frequently recently.

Every afternoon, or evening, Xie Fengshu strolled over from Mingjingtai, sometimes with a handful of hawthorns, sometimes with crabapple fruit, stuffed his pockets bulgingly, and dropped it on the road from the temple gate to the Dharma hall, leaving nothing behind. Everything under it was stuffed into Jiang Chen.

For the rest of the time, Xie Fengshu didn't do anything. Sometimes Jiang Chen was copying the scriptures, and he would lie on the desk to read them, and from time to time ask what Jiang Chen meant by what he wrote; Waiting by the side, when Jiang Chen opened his eyes, he hurried over and asked, "Have you finished meditating?"

Following Jiang Chen, he knew what meditation is, what temples are called, and the precepts are clear, so he didn't dare to disturb him, and could only watch helplessly.

Even so, it was hard for Jiang Chen to feel at ease when someone looked at him like that.

One evening, Jiang Chen finally broke his meditation halfway, opened his eyes and looked at Xie Fengshu helplessly.

"what happened?"

Today's Xie Fengshu no longer sits quietly, but always circles around Jiang Chen, as if he has something to say.

Seeing Jiang Chen opened his eyes, Xie Fengshu felt a little embarrassed, sat in front of Jiang Chen and asked, "Do you want to go down the mountain?"

"Go down the mountain?"

"The seventh day of July is my birthday, and my master allowed me to go down the mountain before then. I originally asked Xiaoxi to go with me, but he said he was too lazy to go."

Xie Fengshu curled his lips, looked up at Jiang Chen again: "Will you go with me then?"

Jiang Chen didn't answer immediately, but only asked: "Aren't you going with Senior Sister or Master?"

"They have all been there." Xie Fengshu looked up at Jiang Chen, "You haven't been there yet."

Since it is my friend, of course I have to take it with me, otherwise it would be pitiful to be alone in the mountains.

Jiang Chen looked down at him, Xie Fengshu looked expectant, his face looked clean and pure in the candlelight.

Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze from his face and asked, "What day?"

The author has something to say: the rhythm of the love chapter is relatively slow, if you feel bored, you can save it.
