Chapter 252 I see Fangcun Mountain

For unknown reasons, the emperor did not summon the second prince Xia Yunjie to see him this time, nor did he issue any punishment.

It was just that in the following days, he did not go to Li Fei's palace. Li Fei, who was suddenly left out, was puzzled and asked the father-in-law beside the emperor to inquire, but he did not get accurate information.

All I know is that the emperor went out for a walk around the palace and went straight into the practice room when he came back. When he was not in court, he stayed there to practice without seeing any guests.

Concubine Li, who had been pampered in every possible way in the past, had no choice but to stay in her palace gloomily after receiving the news, hoping that the emperor would end his training as soon as possible.

Even though she was smart, she didn't expect that her son would cause trouble. It was just that the emperor didn't want to deal with his son again because of this, so he deliberately ignored her.

But even the eunuch Yan Yuanxue didn't know about this because the emperor didn't tell anyone else about Li Ye.

No matter how smart he was, he couldn't imagine why the emperor was angry. Even the woman he loved most in the past stopped paying attention to him, thinking that the emperor was absorbed in practice.

...

Mr. Li Yehe, who was walking on the wasteland, finally arrived at the foot of the mountain in Xixuan Territory.

The carriage reached the three-way intersection at the foot of Fangcun Mountain, and the driver stopped the carriage.

He turned around and looked at the gentleman who had opened the curtain and said, "Mr. Mo, on the left is the Buddhist capital of Xixuan Territory, on the right is the road to Fangcun Mountain, and five miles further is the road up the mountain."

The gentleman raised his head and glanced at the sky, pondered for a moment, and said, "Let's go straight up the mountain. We won't go to the Buddhist capital for now."

When the driver heard this, he nodded, gently swung his whip, and drove the car to the right lane.

"Sir, what are Buddhas?" Mu Mu asked, leaning into Li Hongxiu's arms with her dark eyes open.

The husband turned to look at her and laughed.

Said: "The Buddhist Capital of Xixuan Territory is equivalent to the Sifang City of Dongxuan City, but it is the Buddhist territory here, so the domain lord's palace is called Buddha Capital. Most of the practitioners in the Buddha Capital are monks and bhikkhunis, and there are a few

Taoist practitioners..."

The husband patiently explained it to Mu Mu, and also explained it to Li Hongxiu and Li Ye.

"Master Wife, which one is bigger, Buddha City or Wanxiang City?" Mu Mu tilted her head and looked at Li Hongxiu and said.

Li Hongxiu reached out and gently scratched her nose, and said with a smile: "Master Wife has been to many places, but she has never been to Buddha City, so I can't answer your question. After we have settled in the mountain, we will take you to Buddha City."

Take a walk.”

When Mu Mu heard this, she nodded and said with a smile: "I will call my brother to join us then.

"After saying that, he looked at Li Ye who was lowering his head to chant sutras.

When Li Ye, who was holding the "Ksitigarbha Sutra" heard this, he raised his head, looked at Mu Mu who was tired in Li Hongxiu's arms, and said with a faint smile: "Brother, come with you if you have time."

When Mu Mu heard this, she nodded and said with a smile: "That's pretty much it. My brother will buy some new clothes for Mu Mu when the time comes."

"You can't wear out all your clothes in two or three years, why are you still buying them?" Li Hongxiu glared at Mu Mu.

Mu Mu stuck out her tongue and made a face, and stopped arguing with Li Hongxiu.

While he was talking, the carriage stopped. The driver jumped out of the carriage and said with a smile: "Guests, Fangcun Mountain has arrived."

The gentleman opened the curtain, took a look outside, and turned back to Li Hongxiu and said, "The carriage can only go so far. Next we have to climb the mountain."

Li Hongxiu took Mu Mu and jumped out of the carriage, stretching.

Looking at the vast mountains, he said softly: "From spring to the end of summer, we finally arrived at the foot of Fangcun Mountain! Little guy, hurry down and go to the temple where you want to practice!"

When the husband heard this, he turned his head and glared at her.

Li Ye was the last one to jump out of the car. He was not as excited as Li Hongxiu.

He just glanced at the gentleman, put away the scriptures in his hands, frowned and said, "Fangcun Mountain, here I come."

Li Hongxiu took out a few silver coins and handed them to the driver and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work along the way. These are extra for you. I wish you a safe journey back!"

The coachman bent down to thank him, then bowed his hands with his husband and Li Ye, turned around and got into the carriage, whipped his whip, and the horses drove away happily.

...

"In the next few years, you will stay on this mountain to practice. Your master wife, I, and Mu Mu will not accompany you. You will have to endure the loneliness of being alone, just like you did on Tianshan Mountain. It's just that it's better here.

Tianshan is better, you can get to know a lot of seniors and seniors."

The gentleman clasped his hands behind his back, looked at Li Ye and said calmly.

Li Ye raised his head and glanced at Fangcun Mountain, and replied in a very affirmative tone: "My husband and the old master monk of the Great Buddha Temple asked me to practice in Prajna Temple, hoping that I can understand the "Shadowless Dharma Body" and

Cultivating the state of mind to a higher realm is just a process of cultivation on my life journey, and we take it seriously."

The teacher slowly raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "You have already started the sixth level of the Formless Dharmakaya. In the following days, you will complete the sixth level of practice and then go to the abbot to ask for the remaining three levels of exercises."

Li Ye nodded, looked at his husband and said seriously: "Sir, please rest assured that I will be able to complete the six levels of cultivation in half a year at most."

After hearing this, Li Hongxiu was shocked, looked at Li Ye and said, "So fast? Didn't I only obtain the sixth level of mind in White Jade City?"

Li Ye shook his head slightly and said: "The abbot of Qingliang Temple not only gave me the mental method, but also gave me the herbs for tempering the body. He prepared two doses of herbs when he was practicing, but he only used one.

The remaining portion is a bargain for me."

The gentleman pointed at the stone steps going up the mountain and said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it up the mountain. Hurry now. We have to get to where we are going before dark."

Thinking of the great abbot of Prajna Temple, Master Minghui, and the unknown senior brothers, Li Ye felt a little excited.

He raised his head and glanced at the vast mountains, feeling a surge of pride in his chest, and said loudly: "Prajna Temple, I, Li Ye, am coming."

...

The four of them climbed along the winding mountain road for two hours. Seeing that the mountain road was getting narrower and narrower, Li Hongxiu couldn't help but frowned. She looked at her husband and said, "Husband, the road to Prajna Temple is so rugged. Don't believers come here?"

Pilgrimage?"

Mu Mu's little hand was on Li Hong's sleeve, and she had endured it for a long time. When the teacher's wife asked, she quickly said, "Sir, are we going the wrong way?"

Li Ye glanced at Li Hongxiu and Mu Mu but said nothing.

The gentleman looked back at the two of them, then looked up at the mountain road above his head, and said with a smile: "Yes, this is the road."

Li Ye looked at Li Hongxiu and Mu Mu's appearance and said calmly: "Don't doubt me, sir. The road to seeking the Tao is a complicated and confusing one with cruel fate and extremely vicious fate."

The gentleman was walking in front of the mountain road, looking at the green tiles gradually exposed in front of him, and then looking back at the desolate Fangcun Mountain. There were originally two roads up the mountain, but he chose a mountain road on the north slope.

Up the south slope is Prajna Temple, and up the north slope is Xuantian Temple.

After taking a look at Li Hongxiu who was extremely troubled and Mu Mu who was pouting, the husband smiled and said softly: "Let's go to Xuantian Temple first to settle you two down, and then send Ye'er to Prajna Temple."

The mountain wind blew a few petals flying down from the top of the mountain, floating in front of Li Hongxiu's face, touching her beautiful face, and also fell into Mu Mu's arms.

It made Mu Mu chuckle, and the deserted mountain road gradually came to life.

Li Hongxiu glanced at her man, pulled Mu Mu to continue walking up, laughed and said, "Husband, aren't you in a hurry to send this little guy to Prajna Temple?"

Mu Mu also tilted her head and said with a smile: "Brother, isn't he anxious to go to the temple to practice Buddhism?"

Li Ye raised his eyes and glanced at the green tiles in the distance, and said softly: "Since we have arrived at Fangcun Mountain, there is no need to worry about it now."

The gentleman nodded and said, "That's right! Work harder, there's a Taoist temple ahead!"

...

Xuantian Temple on Fangcun Mountain is the only unworldly place in the Five Realms. It has almost no publicly recruited disciples in the Five Realms. For many practitioners in the Five Realms who seek Taoism, it is a mysterious and otherworldly place.

But for Mr. Li Ye, Li Hongxiu and Mu Mu, this mysterious place suddenly became the scenery before them.

Climbing all the way up from the foot of the mountain, after spending more than two hours, the master and the apprentice finally arrived at the mountain gate of Xuantian Temple.

Li Hongxiu and Mu Mu looked at the gray brick and blue tiled pavilion without any color, and couldn't help but whisper: "Is this the Xuantian Temple that has never been seen in the Five Realms?"

Li Hongxiu and Mu Mu wanted to say, isn't this too simple? It's not as majestic as the Great Buddhist Temple outside Fengyun City in the Eastern Region.

The teacher looked at the expressions of the two people and did not frown. He just said calmly: "Simplicity is also the practice of Yihe."

Li Ye nodded and thought to himself: Extreme simplicity, could it be a kind of practice.

Just like when he was on Tianshan Mountain for several years, a cave and a wooden shed served as a place of practice.

Ten feet away, at the bottom of the stone steps, a young man wearing a blue robe appeared. He walked up to Mr. and others, bowed, and asked, "What are the guests doing here at Xuantian Temple?"

The teacher returned the gift and said calmly: "We are here this time because we have some matters to discuss with your leader. I have prepared a book for him a few days ago. All you need to do is inform Mr. Mo from Dongxuan Region.

Then he will know.”

The young Taoist replied with a salute and said: "It turns out that I am looking for the master. Please wait a moment, sir. I will go and report it right away."

After saying that, he turned around and walked up the stone steps.

Li Hongxiu looked at the little Taoist priest who was leaving and said with a smile: "Does your husband still know the head of Xuantian Temple?"

Mu Mu, who was looking around, also turned her head and looked at Mr.

The gentleman smiled faintly. "I have some friendship with the leader here. From now on, the three of us will practice here. Yeer will go to Prajna Temple alone. After all, it is a Buddhist resort. It is inconvenient for you women to stay there for a long time."

Li Ye nodded, looked at Li Hongxiu and Mu Mu and said: "Master, you, Mu Mu and your husband are practicing here. If you get tired of staying on the mountain, you can go down the mountain to visit the Buddhist capital. I will do the same if I have free time.

Come and see you, your husband and your sister."

Mu Mu shook her head and said, "Brother is right. Mu Mu will take his wife to Prajna Temple to see you when he has time. When I buy delicious food from the mountain, I will bring it to my brother."

Li Hongxiu stretched out her hand and gently stroked Mu Mu's black hair, and said with a smile: "Mu Mu, you have to practice hard, and you can't always think about eating."

When Mu Mu heard this, her face immediately turned red, she broke free from Li Hongxiu's hand and ran to Li Ye's side.

She took his hand and said, "Brother, let's go for a walk and let the wife and husband go see the boss."

The husband waved his hand and said: "You take your sister for a walk, I'll go see the boss."

Li Ye took Mu Mu's hand and walked forward, asking softly: "Does my sister like it here?"

Mu Mu looked around and said, "It's okay. As long as there is a brother, it can be done anywhere. If it's not fun anymore, Mu Mu and his wife will go down the mountain to play."

Li Ye glanced at her, touched her black hair, and said with a smile: "You are here to practice. Don't just think about playing all day long. The master wife also has to practice."
