Holy Monk, your benefactor is dead!

When Li Yun walked to the foot of the Canaan Temple, he looked up and saw that the entire mountain was surrounded by raging fire. The fire was astonishing and did not intend to be extinguished in the slightest.At the foot of the mountain, although there were many onlookers pointing and pointing, no one dared to go up the mountain to put out the fire.

Li Yun didn't want to attract other people's opinions, so he had to find another path, winding up the mountain, and Er Mao followed behind him, not saying a word, but cautiously, not daring to make any mistakes.

The more he walked up, he felt hot breath rushing towards his face, and the breath was also hot. After a while, Li Yun's clothes were drenched with sweat.Breathing also gradually thickened.But Li Yun still had no intention of stopping.

There was silence all the way, and after half an hour, Li Yun finally saw the original Canaan Temple, which was originally full of incense, but now it was burnt down and had long since disappeared.And just in front of the temple, a figure in a state of embarrassment knelt there, like a rotten tree.

Li Yun waved his hand behind him, "You wait and avoid for a moment."

"Yes, sir." Er Qiao agreed, stepped back, and within a breath, his figure was already hidden in the depths of the woods.

After a closer look, Li Yun realized that no matter how fierce the fire was, it seemed to be restrained by an invisible force, even a single tongue of fire could not protrude from the outer wall of the Canaan Temple. If so.Li Yun sighed softly, a trace of melancholy flashed in his eyes, he looked down at the ragged and distressed Jing Yan, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Little monk..."

At this moment, Jing Yan's brain was already in a trance state. Li Yun yelled several times before Jing Yan could hear clearly. He turned his face, revealing a picture that was blackened by the flames, but traced by tears. Even the facial features have been blurred face.

"Master..." Jing Yan looked at Li Yun blankly. He rushed here last night and exhausted all the methods, but he couldn't let the flame get any smaller. All his efforts were in vain.He already understood that nothing could be undone.

All the people who are connected with him causally, except Li Yun, are gone.The world is so big, but there is no room for it.

He devoted himself to the Buddha, and now even the Buddha has abandoned him.

"I'm here." Li Yun squatted down and gently leaned Jing Yan into his arms.Now any words of consolation are nothing but vain, only this waiting company is the most sincere.

Jing Yan didn't speak, and Li Yun didn't speak, the two cuddled quietly before the monstrous fire.

Long time, long time.

Suddenly, Jing Yan said faintly: "One thought becomes a Buddha, and one thought becomes a demon. The master has sacrificed himself, and he doesn't want to involve others, but this little monk really can't do it. This hatred is so deep, the anger and ignorance are deep in the bones, and the little monk can't let it go."

"Han Shan asked: 'There are people in the world who slander me, humiliate me, belittle me, laugh at me, bully me, despise me, how should I deal with it? He, respect him, ignore him. In a few years, just look at him.' And I replied: 'Curse him, scold him, spit on him, abandon him, destroy him, if you don't understand his hatred, you will Kill him.'Little monk, do you understand?" Li Yun is not a kind person, although he has more energy than energy, but this is not all, all the waiting is just to give the enemy a fatal blow at the most favorable time .

Jing Yan suddenly straightened up from Li Yun's arms. He looked at Li Yun's cold and firm eyes that did not waver, and suddenly asked: "The Buddha said, if you don't forgive all living beings, if you don't forgive all living beings, you are suffering yourself. Donor you……?"

"I should have said that in the world, all living beings are not equal. To the common people, the imperial power family is as big as the sky, and they dare not have any excesses; but the common people are nothing more than ants to the imperial power family. , can be trampled on, and can control life and death at will. And dare not make any false statements. If this is what the Buddha said to be equal, then all living beings do not need the forgiveness of the Buddha. Dare to ask the little monk, if you repay evil with virtue, how can you repay virtue?" Li Yun scoffed, and did not agree with Jing Yan's words.In his view, the Buddha is just a kind of self-salvation that deceives everyone, seeking self-consolation, or a kind of inner sustenance that is longing for the life of the upper class.

A good person does good, if there is a mistake, he will miss the merit.

The wicked do evil, but if they do good, they can be redeemed.

How ridiculous, how ignorant.

"Complaining with virtue, how can I repay virtue!" Jing Yan repeated Li Yun's words in a murmur, and his originally chaotic mind seemed to gradually clear up. It is nothingness, only man is true.If you don't have the five senses and the eight sufferings, how can you be a human being?

Jing Yan took two steps away from Li Yun's arms, kowtowed at the Natou of the Canaan Temple under the raging fire, and did not stop until the number was thirty-nine. "Becoming a Buddha with one thought, becoming a demon with one thought, Master sacrificed himself to become a Buddha, forgive Jingyan for not being able to do it, whoever kills my teacher, kills my brother, this crime is a crime that cannot be forgiven. Jingyan only wishes to kill to become a demon, so that To avenge this, I will never regret it."

Li Yun was relieved to see that he had figured it out, and was about to discuss with him what to do next, but Jing Yan stood up abruptly, turned around and walked down the mountain without the slightest hesitation.Li Yun couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, and then said badly to himself.After running a few steps in a hurry, he walked to a hundred meters before he could stop Jing Yan from going.

"Little monk, where are you going?"

"The hatred of the little monk is irreconcilable, and the benefactor should not stop it." At this time, Jing Yan only had the word "revenge" in his mind, and he didn't want to delay with Li Yun here. As soon as he finished speaking, he turned sideways Passing by Li Yun, if he hadn't knelt down here all night, Jing Yan would have used lightness kung fu to fly away.

Li Yun never imagined that after listening to his words, Jing Yan would go from one extreme to another. In a daze, he saw that Jing Yan also passed him and walked down the mountain.Without even thinking about it, Li Yun opened his mouth and said, "Er Mao, stop him for me."

"Yes, sir." There was only a reply from the woods, and two figures flew towards Jing Yan, and they attacked without hesitation.

only……,

"Bang, bang..." With just two sounds, under Jing Yan's full strength, Er Qiao had no resistance at all, but under two palms, Er Qiao fell from the air, spurting blood, and fell to the ground unconsciously. rise.

"Amitabha." Li Yun only heard Jing Yan's salute to the Buddha, and when he looked again, there was no trace of Jing Yan's figure.Since Li Yun couldn't catch up, even if Li Yun wanted to stop him, it was just an empty talk. He hurriedly walked up to Er Mao, seeing the golden complexion of the two, he thought he was seriously injured.

"Sir, forgive me for being incompetent and unable to stop the master." Er Qiao actually knew that Jing Yan had pulled back a little at the last moment, otherwise the two of them would not have the strength to speak now.It's just that they never thought that Jing Yan's martial power is so high. As Jiang Qi's secret guards, they are also among the best in the Jiang family's secret guards. Now they can't make a move under Jing Yan's hands. It's really too shameful.

"It's okay, I know you have done your best, but you can still walk, come down the mountain with me to meet the King of Anyang." Although Li Yun had no choice but to act like this, he couldn't just watch Jing Yan take risks alone , Now in the capital, he can only ask Anyang King for help, but he never thought that what he said a few hours ago will be fulfilled now, which is faster than Li Yun expected.

"I'll wait, sir."

"Let's go!"

……

The temple remains the same, and the fire remains the same.

People are gone, only the birds chirping, complaining about the dusk.
