Shi Kong was taken aback suddenly, and even his gaze towards Yuanhai became uncomfortable. It was obviously the two characters of Monk Yuanhai's Dharma name. When Hai returned from his travels abroad, he brought back Senior Brother Shi Yuan, saying that he was a down-and-out dignitary from an ordinary noble family. In order to avoid being exterminated, he simply became a monk and became a monk.

"Absurd. 'Round' means no omission, perfect enlightenment. The Maitreya chapter of the "Sutra of Perfect Enlightenment" says that showing love and desire is the root of samsara, and all sentient beings are born with such a heavy word of greed. How can the poor monk give it to the new generation?"

Yuan Hai asked back.

"However, Senior Brother Shi Yuan will be in the temple tomorrow. Although he doesn't live with everyone, he often recites scriptures and discusses Buddhism together, and discusses Buddhist principles. Regardless of his seniority, all the senior brothers in the temple respect him very much. He also said to the little monk enviously that he would be a monk like Senior Brother Shi Yuan from now on, and he would be meticulous in doing things so that no one could find faults—and Senior Brother Shi Yuan was the only person in the whole monastery who had never been punished by Master .”

Shi Kong argues with reason—a person who is always by his side—how can he say that if he doesn’t exist, he doesn’t exist!

Shi Kong told Yuan Hai the above words without thinking, but what he didn't expect was that these words made Yuan Hai's eyes even more strange when he looked at him——

"Everyone makes mistakes. How can you say that such a perfect person who has escaped into Buddhism with all his heart is just a little monk in Anle Temple? Shikong, the reason why the Shiyuan you mentioned has not been punished by the poor monk is because Because there is no such person in the temple!"

After Yuanhai sighed, he recited "Amitabha".

Shi Kong's eyes moved slightly, the shock in his heart was indescribable - but he did not give up just like that - not only was the uneasy feeling not relieved by Yuan Hai's words, it even became stronger, no matter how Yuan Hai scolded him, he still persisted Grabbing Yuan Hai's hand, he turned around and tried to drag him out with all his strength, the determination on his face was unshakable: Senior Brother Hui Hai has been lost, so he can watch Senior Brother Hui Neng fall into danger again!

It's okay to say he's stubborn!Paranoia is worth mentioning!

If it can be proved that everything is his delusion, in exchange for the peace of the whole temple, even if he is imprisoned in the meditation room for ten or eight years like a lunatic, so what!

When approaching the front yard of the Buddhist hall, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped. The door of the Buddhist hall was tightly closed, and an orange light shone from inside, as if to reflect the color of the steps in front of the Buddhist hall. The young monk dragged the old monk, The little monk walked in front, he was in a hurry, his face was still stubborn like anger, his straw sandals made a "creak" and "creak" sound when stepping on the snow, his toes were obviously red from the cold, but he seemed Unknowingly——

"Shikong, Shikong," the old monk was dragged by him, "hey."

"Master, just believe in this little monk once!" The little monk's face was flushed from the cold, and his brows were tightly frowned.

Then there was another silence, at this time the two finally came to the backyard, Shi Kong let go of Yuan Hai, and stood in front of the backyard door—the cold wind blew past, the acacia tree in the courtyard was rustling, the little monk Turning his head to look at the people behind him, he lowered his voice and said: "Winter is coming, everything is dormant, but this acacia tree blooms as if it is not afraid of the severe cold. Master, are you really not seeing it, or are you just pretending to be blind?" Didn't you see it yourself?"

Shi Kongyu fell, and saw Yuan Hai's silver beard trembling slightly, as if he wanted to speak but stopped, but finally remained silent.

The two stepped into the backyard, even though they had prepared everything, they were still incomparably shocked when they saw the scene in front of them——

I saw that under the luxuriant branches, there was only a green acacia tree in the daytime, and now clusters of flowers are in full bloom. With the breeze, the branches sway, and small flowers fall from the acacia tree like rain. It blows up and falls, and it falls on the white snow. There is only one Huineng footprint on the snow.

At this time, through the luxuriant branches, two people can be vaguely seen entangled on a thick branch through the gap. Their bodies are undulating and entangled, and a corner of the monk's robe slipped off.

At this time, he was doing what he did in the meditation room that day. Although Shi Kong had seen it before, but in such a icy and snowy outdoor, there was no dim light, no ambiguous atmosphere, and no warm brazier that would make people feel sleepy. The tightly entangled figure makes people unable to move their eyes away——

The relieved mind went blank, and the breathing gradually increased.

"Master, Senior Brother Shi Yuan—"

He is here.

Shi Kong couldn't finish his sentence, because in the next second, the old monk standing next to him had already moved. After the initial shock, the staff in the old monk's hand suddenly hit the ground, and there was a loud "bang" sound accompanied by snow. Dusty -

"What a monster! How dare you make trouble in my Anle Temple! The poor Taoist misses that you are a monster born of the world's wish and listening to the Buddhist teachings. I will show you a way, but I don't want you to not only be ungrateful, but also pretend to be a monk in our temple. murder!"

Yuan Hai shouted violently, and suddenly a strong wind gathered on the spot——

Shi Kong raised his hand to cover his eyes to prevent the snow from flying in, and in a trance, he only had time to see the treetops. Huineng seemed unaware that someone stepped into the backyard, but his eyes were blurred, and his four legs were limp on the treetops, instead he was lying on the treetops. Shi Yuan on Huineng lazily raised Yao slightly, turned his head and looked here with a blank expression——

"It's you, old bald donkey, don't meddle in your own business."

Shi Yuan's tone was indifferent, and there was no trace of respect in his words. His usually dark brown pupils were now shining red like the color of acacia beans.

The gust of wind whizzed past and died down in a moment. Shi Kong realized that it was Yuan Hai who was standing in front of him. He stretched his head and looked towards the direction of the lovesickness tree——

Immediately, his eyes widened slightly for the scene in front of him: he saw that Shi Yuan's body was becoming blurred and transparent, as if it was about to merge with the branches and tendrils around him. After a while, Shi Yuan disappeared!

Only Huineng was left limp on the branch—at this moment, his monk robe was in a mess, both the upper and lower parts were lifted up and piled up on his waist. In such a cold winter, he seemed to be ignorant of the cold, With a flushed face lying on the branch, two light-colored bumps on his chest lightly rubbed against the rough surface of the branch, and trembling. His four thick branches were tightly entwined, as if this acacia tree had suddenly appeared. Life generally embraces him in its arms!

The branch was even tightening gradually, as if it was going to draw red scars on his body, but he didn't cry out in pain, but squinted his eyes slightly, and let out a sigh from his mouth——

Between the shadows of the trees swaying.

It can be seen that the thick and thin branches of the arm are submerged between the two strands

[Since the opening of Anle Temple, there has never been a person with the dharma name 'Shiyuan'. 】

【Who is the person you said who practiced double practice with Hui Neng every night?Or was everything fabricated out of thin air for you? 】

Shi Kong has never seen such a shocking scene in his life, he immediately took a breath, took two steps back and fell into the snow, the snow dust flew into his nose, he sneezed twice, and immediately Only then did he realize what was happening in front of his eyes, and exclaimed: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

And when he fell down in the snow in horror, Monk Yuan Hai had already stepped forward to meet the enemy with his staff——the metal on the staff resounded in the cold wind, accompanied by the exorcism scriptures in Yuan Hai's mouth, that The golden light gradually converged on the staff, and the spell seemed to resonate with the vibrating staff. After a loud "bang", countless Sanskrit words flew towards the acacia tree——

"Killing someone's life, the poor monk will not tolerate you!"

The Sanskrit characters struck into the tree trunk like thunder, and the century-old tree trembled, seeming to let out an inaudible cry of pain. While shaking, Huineng seemed to be intoxicated in a dream that he couldn't wake up from. Not at all!

"Old monk, this demon is about to cultivate and become a Buddha. What can you do to me with your mortal body?"

A deep and angry male voice sounded in the sky, as if the lovesick tree demon was extremely angry after being injured by the exorcism scriptures, the long branches suddenly exploded, and sharp roots shot up from the ground, flying towards Monk Yuanhai Come--

"Shi Kong! Save Huineng!"

Monk Yuanhai shouted loudly and raised his staff to meet the enemy, but maybe he was old after all, under the impact of a few branches, he backed up again and again, the golden light of the staff in his hand was dim, and the monster caught the gap and stabbed him deeply. into his right shoulder!

Blood splashed out immediately!

"Master!!!!"

The eyes of the little monk who was still weak at first were almost stained red by the blood, and a force arose in his body for no reason. He got up from the snow without even thinking about it, roaring and rushing towards the branch——

At that moment, he seemed to be full of power that he didn't know where it came from. The blood seemed to be rushing through his body and limbs. He jumped high. At that moment, he couldn't feel the cold wind. When the little monk's straw sandals flew out, he stepped on the branch with his bare feet and kicked one of them flying to save Yuan Hai. The old monk fell back and fell to the ground at the same time. The straw sandals also flew out——

He thought for a while, and desperately stomped on the evil branch with his bare feet. He thought it was just to vent his anger, but unexpectedly, the moment his skin was attached to the acacia tree, the place on the trunk that had been branded by Zhu Jiuyin suddenly changed. Get red and hot—

Shi Yuan's figure loomed on the branch again. The handsome young monk's eyes were red, his robe was half untied, and his figure was in a trance, as if he was being torn apart by some invisible force. His hands were twisted in a terrible way. , seems to want to touch the brand on his waist, but dare not!

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!'

But at this time, Shi Kong couldn't understand what he was talking about at all, he just climbed up the acacia tree on his own, punched Shi Yuan over, hugged Huineng tightly, and both of them fell down from the branches cumbersomely ——

He took a mouthful of the mixture of mud and snow, and tasted a faint smell of blood on his lower lip... At the same time, he felt cold eyes sweeping over him from the tree. He raised his head to look at the tree, and saw standing Among the treetops, Shi Yuan's face was pale, as if he had been severely injured, he looked at Shi Kong coldly: "Those who stand in my way will be destroyed."

"You evildoer! If you have the ability, you kill me!" Shi Kong stood up, puffing out his chest. "As long as I'm here! Don't even think about touching a single hair of my senior brother!"

His voice was extremely hoarse, and there was unconcealed fear in it.

Shi Yuan stared at the little monk under the tree for a moment, then laughed strangely, said "wait and see", and disappeared on the treetop.

Three days later.

Everyone in Jinling knew that something big happened in Anle Temple.

The presiding monk Yuanhai suddenly became seriously ill for some reason. He looked as if he had received trauma and evil spirits entered his body, but there was no scar on his body. However, he himself was unconscious and could only stay in the meditation room and be guarded all day long.

A monk named Shi Yuan was recommended by everyone to temporarily act as the daily representative of the temple.

"That young monk named Shi Yuan, have you seen it?"

"I've seen it, I've seen it, he looks very handsome, and everyone in the temple is quite convinced by his appearance, but for some reason, he doesn't seem to be in good health."

"Yes, yes, her face is so pale that it is almost transparent, but her lips are bright red. I always feel a little weird looking at it."

"But he's really handsome."

"Yeah yeah."

Two young daughters were standing under the acacia tree and whispering, at this moment, behind them, a little monk with a bamboo broom appeared at some point, as if he heard their discussion.He stopped sweeping the snow and dropping lovesickness flowers, and came to them. The little monk said indifferently: "There is no monk Shiyuan in Anle Temple. What you see is just a demon. Go back. Never come to Anle Temple again. It's not safe here."

""

The two daughters looked at each other in blank dismay. When they realized what to say, they found that the little monk had already turned and walked away.
