The old monk’s eyes widened, and Liyou’s words spoke to his heart, it had been a thousand years…..
“This poor monk’s name is Fa Wu, don’t know where this benefactor comes from?” At a glance, he could usually see through someone, but he could only see through one thread or one hair on this person. He just felt that this person was shrouded in black mist, mysterious and unpredictable.
Fa Wu’s question made Liyou hesitate for a moment. Where she came from, she did not seem to be able to say.
Liyou shook her head, the meaning of refusing to answer obvious. Even if she really said something, it would just be adding another fairy tale to the world.
When Master Fa Wu saw Liyou’s actions, he knew that he seemed to be asking something the other was unwilling to answer, “Amitabha, this poor monk has asked too much. It is fate to have met each other. Benefactors, how does this poor monk’s bitter tea taste?” Fa Wu restrained his agitated emotions for a while but he couldn’t be blamed for losing control. He had not met a fellow practitioner for many years. Although he had seen through life and death a long time ago, he still could not give up his cultivation of a thousand years. Now that he had met a person who could see through himself at a glance, how could he not be riled up?
Liyou took another sip of tea. It was not as bitter as its name, but dry and sweet. But after drinking it, there seemed to be a trace of tea left between the lips and teeth. Perhaps, this was the origin of bitter tea.
“There are tens of thousands of different creatures in the world and they all have their own way of survival. Their cultivation is also different….” Liyou paused for a while and glanced at Zen Master Fa Wu, whose eyes were bright, paying extreme attention to Liyou…..
Fa Wu knew that this person was teaching him the truth of cultivation and the reason why he could not understand it was precisely because his understanding was not enough. If there was someone who could teach him a thing or two, he might be able to further his cultivation!
Knowing that Fa Wu was listening carefully to what she said, Liyou continued, “Although the methods of cultivation are different, in general, there is nothing better than cultivating the mind and body, doing whatever the heart desires, and changing your body according to your heart. No need to force your heart. Everyone will have good and evil thoughts in their hearts. By only cultivating the good, evil thoughts will be suppressed and by only cultivating evil, good thoughts will be ignored. There are seven emotional effects, six desires, three immortal souls and seven mortal forms. Missing any, a person will be incomplete, how can an incomplete person achieve Buddhahood?”
This truth was understood by her after 10,000 years of cultivation. She had lost immortal spirit and a mortal soul, she was an incomplete person, how could one become immortal?
Fa Wu fell into deep thought because of Liyou’s words. Feng Xue was also thinking of something with a serious expression. Only Anhui furrowed his brows tightly, looking at Liyou in confusion. He did not understand the truths of such cultivation practices.
The hut was very quiet, only the faint scent of tea remaining. After a long time, Liyou had already drank two cups of tea and Zen Master Fa Wu sighed and said with great emotion, “Amitabha, this poor monk has received the teachings. Although this poor monk does not fully understand what the benefactor said, it is most likely this poor monk is too selfish and has forgotten there are so many other people in this world. Even if I were to hide in the secular world, it is still an act of shunning the world. Spiritual cultivation, without this world, this cultivation will not be perfect.
Fa Wu’s remarks are also what Liyou had thought now. She had avoided the secular world for many years, and in the end, she finally walked the earthly road. This may be the arrangement of fate.
“It is just a pity, a pity, that this poor monk understood this truth late, if it had been a hundred years earlier….ah….” Fa Wu let out a long sigh, a sigh containing a lifetime of regret. He was losing his spiritual power and after a hundred days, he would become a pile of dead bones. Now that he had finally understood the truth of engaging with the secular world, how could he not feel regretful?
A strange color flashed in Liyou’s eyes, and when she looked at Fa Wu again, there was a thread of scrutiny in her eyes.
“The road of cultivation is not easy, and now you have taken the first step…..” She had been the overlord of zombies for thousands of years. Not to mention humans, even among zombies, there were too many zombies who chose to blow themselves up because they could not hold on to the end. Maybe it was because of thousands of years of loneliness, maybe it was because of unknown loneliness, whatever the reason, this path of practice was not easy to walk.
“From the day this poor monk chose to practice asceticism, this poor monk knew that this road would not be easy to walk. To this day, this poor monk does not regret it. I have watched many brothers and sisters leave, one by one, and finally only this poor monk was left. This poor monk only thinks that things in this world are impermanent. Is it possible to avoid the misery of life if you seek the Buddha’s way? It is only now that I know that such a miserable life was cultivated, but it is too late to know and there is no chance to truly experience it. It is a pity, truly a pity.”
“We have finished drinking the tea, it is time to leave. In order to thank you for this pot of tea, I will say one last thing…Until the end, do not give up, persistence is a marvel!” Liyou got up and while speaking, a black light shot out from Liyou’s fingertips, directly into Fa Wu’s eyebrows and into his body.
Fa Wu only felt his body jolt and he shortly passed out afterwards.
“Master, you gave spiritual energy to Fa Wu, can he live a bit longer now?” Feng Xue asked this impatiently after leaving the hut.
“Perhaps.”
“What does perhaps mean, didn’t you give your spiritual energy to Zen Master Fa Wu before you left?” Feng Xue asked in a confused manner.
Liyou looked at Feng Xue, who was in a hurry, with a funny look. This little fox had always been kind and cared so much about things that had nothing to do with him. She naturally gave Fa Wu her spiritual energy just now, but as for what would happen in the future, no one could say. Whether it was truly possible to penetrate through life and death, and no longer be limited by life and death, it was necessary to see if one had the comprehension.
“Little fox, do not care so much about other people’s affairs and don’t relax on your own cultivation.” She had hardly seen the little fox cultivate these past few days, it was not good to continue like this.
“Yes, Feng Xue understands.” He had been busy running outside recently and he hadn’t calmed down enough to practice. However, he hadn’t seen his Master cultivate?
“Master, do you not need to cultivate?”
Hearing Feng Xue’s question, Liyou revealed a sinister smile, holding Feng Xue and Anhui with both hands, she said with ease, “You both are my cultivation and being fair to you all, my cultivation will be complete.”
This was Liyou’s sincerity. Most of her emotions were due to the men around her. If they were not part of her cultivation, what were they?
Feng Xue and Anhui were stunned when they heard Liyou’s words and looked at each other, not knowing what Liyou meant.
Li You didn’t explain, just dragging the two of them and walked away, attracting countless strange gazes along the way. The most eye-catching of the three was Feng Xue. Feng Xue was dressed in snow white robes, with silver hair, silver eyes and white clothes, as well as a stunning face. It always attracted passers-by to look back for a second glance. Although Liyou was a woman, she possessed peerless elegance. The Young Masters on the street blushed and had quickened heartbeats. Only Anhui had a stern expression on his face and everyone did not dare to look at it after seeing it, which saved a lot of trouble.
Along the way, the three of them visited several towns. Although these places were close to the border, the war only made people a little more nervous than usual and the price of rice and food was a little higher. Overall the impact was not very big. This was also thanks to Li Yao, Long Xizhao and the others’ merits. They appeased the hearts of the people and people had confidence in the Imperial court, so there were no major troubles.
Six days later, the three left Huaijun and Liyou received a second letter from Luo Yu yesterday. In the letter, he said he hoped that Liyou would return to the Imperial Palace as soon as possible. The Enchanting Imperial Consort’s child was about to be born and after thinking about it carefully, Liyou also felt that it was time to return to court. Hence, he took Feng Xue and Anhui back with her.
The three of them rode for an entire day. Since they were not familiar with the terrain and missed the town, they decided to set up camp in the wild for a night. After traveling for days, Liyou and Feng Xue were fine, but Anhui was still an ordinary person. But even hurrying like this was not too bitter, but Liyou still decided to take a night’s rest.
“Anhui, rest well.”
“I am fine, no need to rest for my sake.” Anhui did not want to slow down the team’s speed.
“Do not think too much. It is not for people, horses also need to rest.” Liyou held onto Anhui’s hand, motioned Anhui to sit down and Anhui looked at Liyou firmly, saying no more.
The three of them sat quietly around the bonfire. None of them were talkative. Liyou did not speak and Anhui and Feng Xue also did not speak. But, the quiet atmosphere did not seem awkward, on the contrary, it seemed extra peaceful.
The weather in early spring was not warm, and while Liyou and Feng Xue didn’t feel the chill, although Anhui’s martial prowess were high, he still felt a hint of coldness.
Liyou sensed Anhui’s discomfort, reached out and held onto Anhui’s hand, slowly transporting mana into Anhui’s body, and said reproachfully: “If there is a problem, say it, don’t always endure it.”
He was stunned for a while, a warm feeling surging in his heart as he held Li You’s hand. He looked at Liyou affectionately, and no longer concealed his love for Liyou.
Feng Xue watched enviously from the side. The relationship between the two was getting better and better, making him always feel like a superfluous existence. Thinking of this, Feng Xue’s eyes darkened, and he couldn’t help, but think again of the scene where Anhui jumped off the city wall. Such a person was worthy of the Master’s love. He clearly knows that those people could not hurt his Master at all, so he allows the master to do it, but Anhui should not have known and risked his life to do it. His love for the Master should be no less than Feng Xue’s. He was also happy that the master is willing to accept the Anhui, but why does the Master not accept him?
What’s wrong with him? Feng Xue thought about it himself, but couldn’t figure it out…
“Don’t think nonsense, it’s late at night, rest.” Just when Feng Xue couldn’t understand, Liyou rubbed his head.
Alas, Feng Xue sighed in his heart, why was she always being so gentle to him unintentionally, making him unable to resist falling into this kind of gentleness again and again, unable to give up.
Liyou closed his eyes and rested her mind, holding Anhui and Feng Xue in both hands, neither Anhui nor Feng Xue was willing to break away from Liyou’s hand…
The quiet and warm atmosphere continued into the night…
Liyou suddenly opened his eyes, and her deep eyes looked in the direction of the woods not far away…
Feng Xue and Anhui also woke up immediately…
The old monk’s eyes widened, and Liyou’s words spoke to his heart, it had been a thousand years…..
