Li Ye, Mu Mu, Nalan Yu, Hua Tianxia and Hua Luoyu have been separated for a year in the blink of an eye. Looking at the two people in front of them, they feel more intimate.

Mu Mu pulled Hua Luoyu and sat down next to her, and asked, "How is it in the imperial city?"

"After the new emperor ascended the throne, my sister and I came to White Jade City from the Imperial City. We originally planned to go to Southern Xinjiang to find you, but we heard from people in the caravan that Nanyun City has been closed down, so we are staying here.

Come down."

Hua Luoyu thought about all the bad things in the imperial city and was unwilling to mess around with Mu Mu.

Hua Tianxia looked at the eldest prince and Li Ye in silence for a moment and then said: "Generalissimo, are you going to attack the imperial city soon? I want to go back with you."

The eldest prince shook his head and said calmly: "Since it is a war, I naturally have to follow the arrangements of the national advisor. Even I only assist him in completing the command of the army."

Hua Tian was stunned, looked at Li Ye and said, "We haven't seen each other for only a year. I never thought that the Imperial Master would have grown into a big tree in the sky."

Li Ye looked at her and replied seriously: "We will definitely fight back, but right now we have to rest here for a while."

When Hua Tianxia heard this, he looked at him and leaned over with a smile: "We have nothing to do anyway. From now on, I will follow the generalissimo and the national master. You have to protect us and don't let anyone torture us to death."

Li Ye didn't know what she wanted to express and couldn't help but frown.

Tang Qiuyu filled up the tea cups in front of them and said with a smile: "Could it be that Master Hua has left the second prince and is thinking of going out on his own?"

"It's not that we figured it out, it's that we have no way." Hua Luoyu said it quickly.

Li Ye looked at Hua Tianxia and said slowly: "Sister Hua, is the Imperial City forcing you to make a choice?"

"I'm just a weak woman, what can I do? I can't fight with my friends to death, right? In desperation, Luo Yu and I have no choice but to leave the imperial city first and wait for you to come back to discuss the matter."

Hua Tianxia briefly told everyone what happened in the imperial city.

The eldest prince smiled and said nothing.

Li Ye looked at the two of them and couldn't help but sigh deep in his heart, nodded and said: "That's fine, my previous plan was to solve the palace's problems first, and then I'll solve your problems."

Nalan Yu turned his head and glanced at Li Ye and Hua Tianxia, ​​and then didn't say anything. He just lowered his head and secretly rejoiced that the person he longed for had arrived before he even reached the imperial city.

"Do you still live in Huamanlou or here? There are not many people living in Nuo City Lord's Mansion." Li Ye looked at Hua Luoyu and said with a smile.

Hua Tianxia thought for a while and replied: "Juhuang is in such chaos that the buildings in Baiyu City have stopped doing business for a long time. Next, we will live with Mr. Tang so that everyone can take care of us."

Tang Qiuyu nodded, naturally welcoming.

"Are there any more of the pastries I want to eat? I've been craving them for almost a year." Mu Mu took Hua Tianxia's hand and asked.

Hua Tian was stunned, stretched out his hand and gently squeezed her little hand, and said angrily: "Didn't I give you a lot when you left? You are too big to eat, right?"

Mu Mu curled her lips, spread her hands and said, "The snacks in Nanyun City are not as good as those of Sister Hua. You finished them before February."

"Knowing that you are coming back, how can I miss this thing from you?" Hua Tianxia looked at her and said with a sweet smile.

"Mu Mu, don't make trouble. If you want to eat, you have to finish your dinner first." Li Ye knew that as soon as he returned to the Central Territory, Mu Mu's greedy and sleepy nature would be revealed again.

Hua Tianxia glanced at Li Ye, took Mu Mu's hand and said, "The Imperial Master is right, let's eat first."

Mu Mu was a little unhappy, looked at Li Ye and said, "Is it okay if I don't eat?"

Li Ye shook his head and said firmly: "No."

...

At Chen time the next day, a group of women were still sleeping in. Li Ye said hello to the eldest prince and Nalan Yu, saying that he had something to go out and that he should not pay attention to his whereabouts and would come back naturally after he was done.

The eldest prince was stunned, looked at Li Ye and asked, "Does the Imperial Master want Commander Xia to lead a few brothers to protect you?"

Li Ye shook his head and said: "Since they came out with the emperor, they haven't had much rest. It's hard to rest, so it's hard to disturb them."

Nalanyu knew where he was going and said softly: "How about I go with you?"

Li Ye looked back at him and said with a smile: "What are you going to do? Are you trying to scare people?"

Waving his hand, he left the city lord's mansion and walked outside.

It's time to repay the debt of gratitude I've owed for several years.

The eldest prince looked at Li Ye coming out of the living room, looked at Nalan Yu and asked: "General Nalan, do you know where the Imperial Master is going?"

Nalan Yu nodded and replied: "It was in this White Jade City that the Imperial Master met the Emperor. He also met another person in the Qingliang Temple in the city. He has to go back to find him now."

The eldest prince nodded and said with a smile: "I never expected that my father met the Imperial Master here. What a fate."

Nalanyu smiled and said: "Even in my inn, speaking of inns, I haven't visited them in more than a year. If the Generalissimo has nothing to do, I want to go back and have a look."

The eldest prince waved to him and said, "You go ahead, I'll be fine here. Xia Yunlan lives nearby, so don't be afraid."

Nalanyu bowed hands with him and left the city lord's mansion.

...

In Qingliang Temple, the morning classes were over, and the monks who had had breakfast returned to their respective meditation rooms to rest.

Li Ye stood guard outside Xuanbei's Buddhist hall and watched the old monk approaching slowly. He clasped his hands together, bent down and saluted, "Wuchen has seen my senior."

His eyes lit up, Xuanbei looked at him in surprise, and said gently: "We haven't seen you for several years, and the little gentleman is getting more and more energetic."

Li Ye nodded and followed the old monk into the Buddhist hall.

The two of them entered the Buddhist hall. Xuanbei lit the small stove on the table, took out the teapot, took out the tea leaves and put them in.

"After six years of separation, I didn't expect to see Mr. Xiao again again. It's really incredible."

Li Ye nodded and replied: "Since our last farewell, I have been thinking about Master's mercy all the time. I have free time today, so I just came here to fulfill my wish."

After saying this, Li Ye held the flower in his left hand, lowered his eyes, and chanted softly:

"Om ah hum, banzagrepaima siddhi hum!"

Holding the flowers and smiling, he softly recited the twelve-character mantra twice, then took out a handwritten volume of "The Formless Dharmakaya" and handed it to Xuanbei.

Xuanbei was stunned when he heard Li Ye's chanting. When he saw him again, he took out the Buddhist scripture and handed it to him. He took it with his hands together, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, and gently opened it to take a closer look.

After just one glance, his face was already filled with tears. He clasped his hands together again and said, "It's rare that this little gentleman is so compassionate. He still remembers the agreement he made back then. How good, how good!"

Putting down the Buddhist scriptures, Xuanbei poured a cup of hot tea for Li Ye and praised: "I didn't expect you, Mr. Xiao, to have obtained the complete "Shadowless Dharma Body". No wonder I can't see your practice clearly now."

Li Ye quickly waved his hand and said: "Senior, don't be happy yet. Although you have obtained a complete Buddhist scripture, it is still unknown whether you can complete it."

Xuan Bei was stunned after hearing this, looked at Li Ye, smiled and asked, "Why is this?"

Li Ye sighed, picked up the teacup, put it under his nose, sniffed it gently, and praised: "Good tea."

After taking a gentle sip, he said: "When this generation is able to practice the sixth level of mind, not only will I receive the scriptures from my master, but I will also receive the body-tempering herbs you gave me."

Xuanbei looked at him and said, "I have no use for those herbs, why don't I give them to you?"

Li Ye looked at him and shook his head, sighing: "You gave me medicinal herbs at the beginning, but now I don't have any medicinal herbs to give you. The medicinal herbs needed for the seventh and eighth levels are probably difficult to find even in the five realms."

When Xuan Bei heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "So, the young gentleman has not practiced the following mental techniques?"

Li Ye looked at the kind old man in front of him and couldn't bear to lie to him, so he could only reply softly: "By chance, I got the soul of a dragon who failed to survive the tribulation..."

Li Ye briefly told him what happened in the back mountain of Xuantian Temple, but some things were still left unsaid.

Xuanbei looked at Li Ye, was silent for a long time, and then said softly: "Even Master Minghui did not expect that you would have such an adventure. It seems that this is really God's will."

"Master, there is no need to be discouraged. There are still miracles in this world. If you have time, go to the five realms and you might be able to meet your chance."

Li Ye thought about how he would have encountered that magical cave if he had not gone to the back mountain of Xuantian Temple to collect herbs with his husband.

Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles is indeed the truth.

"I don't think any of the monks in Prajna Temple practice this technique. The reason is also because at the advanced stage of practice, they can't make any progress without getting the elixir. No wonder Master Poxu wanted to go down the mountain to find his opportunity."

Old monk Xuanbei sighed.

Li Ye lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked at him and replied: "Master, there is no need to be too persistent. Whenever there is hope, it is always a matter of joy."

Xuanbei looked at the young man with indescribable joy in his heart. He thought that he had been practicing Buddhism for many years, but the one who came to enlighten him was actually the man who saw the Buddha in Qingliang Temple.

"This year's winter in Baiyu City will be much colder than in previous years. There will be chaos in the five realms. Young sir, please be careful." Xuan Bei reminded him as he looked at Li Ye, remembering the battle to destroy the city yesterday.

Li Ye stood up and poured tea into their cups, looked at him and replied seriously: "I haven't been to White Jade City for many years, so I won't let it be destroyed in the war."

Xuanbei was stunned and didn't understand what Li Ye meant. He looked at him blankly and asked, "What does this mean?"

Li Ye didn't want to explain his identity and the chaos he saw. After all, there was no conflict with Buddhism and there would be no conflict. After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "That's what it means literally."

Xuanbei thought for a while and did not ask further. He just sighed: "It was not easy to build this majestic city back then. It is naturally a good thing to be able to retain the scenery of the past."

Li Ye nodded and smiled: "No one will destroy it."

Xuan Bei looked at him and said: "I don't know what the people in the imperial city are thinking about now. A good five regions will make them so war-torn that the people will not be able to survive."

Li Ye was silent for a moment, looking at his aging cheeks. He didn't know how many years the old man in front of him had been practicing, let alone where he would go after he obtained the complete "Phaseless Dharmakaya" mental method.

As I thought about it, I couldn't help but feel great admiration for the old man in front of me.

"Because of their power, they would cause such trouble to all living beings." Li Ye thought of the second prince in the imperial city and looked at Xuan Bei and said calmly.

When Xuan Bei heard this, he couldn't help but recite a Buddha's name and looked at Li Ye with a quiet and profound look.

Youyou said: "I have been practicing in Qingliang Temple for several years, and I have never stopped looking at the world with these eyes. After spring, I want to go out for a walk."

Li Ye looked at him and smiled: "Spring? That's very good. Maybe in spring, the five regions will be able to restore their former peace."

Xuanbei did not accept this sentence, but smiled and said: "Buddha said that everyone in the world is suffering. He only regrets that he cannot become a Buddha and help all living beings to eliminate the suffering in front of them."

Li Ye looked at him and said seriously: "This junior has not become a Buddha, but I want to try to resolve the crisis in front of all sentient beings."

Xuanbei looked at him and said something very obscure: "Sometimes I teach all living beings not to use their eyes, but to see the world with their hearts, but then I thought about it, if you can't even see with your eyes, how can you see with your hearts?

?”

Li Ye looked at him, and as he watched, a smile gradually appeared on his face. He pointed at the Bodhisattva on the Buddhist altar and said, "Now I can only see a trace of dust on the Bodhisattva's body."
