Chapter 12 Returning the property to its original owner
The next day, the sun rises.
The morning mist lingering in the mountains has not yet cleared, but fireworks have already risen in the Bamboo Forest Temple.
After a month, Wang Li was finally able to take a serious bath for himself.
She put on the brocade clothes she had brought from home, her long hair was combed upward and tied into a bun, fixed with a straight golden hairpin, and the piece of white jade that exuded a warm and moist atmosphere was tied around her waist again.
Compared with the simple gray monk's robe, this outfit is obviously better able to bring out his handsome appearance and restrained but not mediocre youthful heroic spirit.
Wang Li looked at the unclear figure in the bronze mirror and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
When he first woke up, he was wearing a suit of brocade clothes similar to this.
However, that night, the little king carp's body seemed to be directly enveloped by this suit of clothes. The thin body could not support any temperament at all, and was only extremely frail.
He grabbed the baggage on the table and slung it over his shoulder. Inside was the Book of Changes and the bundle that he had brought up the mountain but had nowhere to use.
Speaking of the long sword again, this is the whole bag.
Looking back and looking around, his eyelashes twitched slightly, and his eyes seemed to imprint this simple residence in his mind.
After a while, I took a deep breath, and when I took a step, my eyes were as bright as stars.
What I will open and face next is the life that truly belongs to me!
At the entrance of the courtyard, Qingchi had arrived at some unknown time.
When he saw Wang Li going out, he couldn't help but glance up and down, and then smiled and said: "You boy, your determination not to become a monk is indeed very firm."
He was referring to the fact that Wang Li had already changed out of his monk's robe.
Wang Li smiled at him, quickly got into the kitchen and turned off the stove fire. After going out, he carefully checked the door locks of each room, then stepped across the courtyard door, locked it with the same seriousness, and then turned around to face the person who had been waiting for him.
Elder Qingchi.
The other party smiled and asked: "Can you leave?"
Wang Li nodded first, then shook his head.
He reached into his arms, took out a folded piece of paper, and held it in front of Qingchi.
"Master, before leaving, could you hand this thing over to the abbot for me?"
Qingchi took it curiously, unfolded it, took a quick glance, and his expression changed slightly.
He looked at Wang Li and raised his eyebrows high: "Are you sure you want to do this? Don't answer me in a hurry. Let me tell you first, you don't have to do this because they all regard you as a natural Buddhist. Even if you don't join the White
There will definitely be no one in Long Temple who will plot against you secretly, let alone anyone who will secretly assassinate you, because doing so will only bring trouble to Bailong Temple.
People like you who can independently understand the method of cultivation from scriptures have been rare since ancient times, but over the years, there have been many such geniuses in various sects. Therefore, the common rule is that the only person who can understand it on your own is you.
Yes, no one will disagree with it. But if you hand it over to Bailong Temple, then there may be rumors about the flaws in the method you have learned in the future. This is also a precedent, do you think about it?"
After hearing what he said, Wang Li was also stunned.
It was also the first time that he knew that there was such an underlying rule behind "enlightenment from scriptures".
However, this stupor only lasted for a few breaths.
Now that you have made a decision, don't regret it temporarily, otherwise you will not only hurt other people's emotions, but also your own courage.
Because, when making a decision, you have to consider all the consequences as comprehensively as possible in advance and within the scope of your ability.
Therefore, Qingchi’s reminder had been thought about long before Wang Li made the decision.
Even though he didn't know exactly what level and level of cultivation method "Budging Lotus" was, based on his personal experience, it shouldn't be too weak.
It's just that he doesn't really understand Bailong Temple, so he lacks reference points.
But this is not enough to constitute a reason for him to hide his secrets.
On the premise of seeing his "talent", Bailong Temple still chose to let him go as he chooses.
Then he will naturally provide a reward within his ability, whether it is the freedom to become a monk, or curing diseases and making up for the innate losses.
What needs to be made clear is that the relationship between Bailong Temple and Wang Li could have been less polite. Bailong Temple was the party with the absolute advantage.
From this, Wang Li had already made it clear before he wrote "Step by Step, Lotus Grows": Bailong Temple could be without it, but he had to give it.
So he quickly responded with a smile: "Master, I have already considered it clearly. It should be returned to its original owner. I'm sorry to trouble you, Master!" After saying that, he bowed his hand again.
Maybe he didn't expect Wang Li to be so free and easy, and Qingchi was also stunned.
"Haha, I underestimated you!" As he said that, Qingchi unfolded the paper generously, read this practice method quickly, and said loudly: "Yes, it's not an ordinary thing. It seems like it's inside
There is another world, and it should contain an excellent footwork... No, it's a body method... It doesn't seem to be the case, tsk tsk, that's interesting!"
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Wang Li's face, as if he wanted to capture something from it.
But he could only be disappointed.
Because even though Wang Li had not blessed himself with any status at this time, his face and eyes did not show any strangeness.
He always maintained a warm and calm smile, just like the neighbor's child who was well-behaved and never got into trouble.
Qingchi pursed his lips, not even a trace of the 120% satisfaction in his heart was revealed.
However, his evaluation of "Step by Step" is not deliberately high, but this is not a good time for him to study it carefully.
After memorizing this technique, he waved his hand and several pieces of white paper were immediately wrapped in golden light and flew towards the temple.
"Okay, I've sent them to the abbot's Buddhist temple, let's... set off now?"
"Okay!" Wang Li nodded, his eyes full of expectation.
Seeing this, Qingchi couldn't help but sigh as he walked: "Oh, what a pity! Another child's yearning for the outside world has to be broken..."
Wang Li followed him step by step, his smile not diminishing by half.
It was also the first time for Wang Li to walk down the mountain.
Compared with the situation when he was carried up the mountain, he could now walk down the very steep steps alone without blushing or panting all the way to the bottom of the mountain.
This was another disappointment for an old monk who wanted to see a joke.
When he reached the foot of the mountain, Wang Li turned around and looked up, and saw only a lush forest. The thin mist was about to dissipate, but he couldn't see any corner of Bailong Temple.
Looking back on the first time he came to the foot of the mountain, he could not have imagined that there was a monastery with hundreds of monks hidden in this mountain forest. He even kept wondering whether the group of soldiers escorting him had gone the wrong way.
.
In fact, it is not very accurate to say that he was standing at the foot of the mountain at this time. Because Bailong Mountain is not just the mountain top where Bailong Temple is located, but a huge mountain range that stretches for dozens of miles. Its shape looks like a real dragon climbing, and inside
Most of the environment is similar to the primitive forest that Wang Li knew in his previous life. In the eyes of the surrounding mortals, it can be regarded as an out-and-out sacred mountain.
In this way, if you want to get out of the Bailong Mountains, it is best to have a guide who is familiar with the roads, otherwise you are very likely to get lost along the way and feed the wild beasts.
Of course, he doesn't need to worry about comfort now, because Qingchi is already familiar with the road and walks briskly for quite a while.
Wang Li quickly caught up with him, and he also had some doubts in his heart.
Most practitioners have extraordinary means of transportation when they are on their way.
Either it is a rare and exotic beast, such as a crane; or it relies on a magic weapon, like Wang Li once saw Jingyuan cast a spell to summon a flying boat.
Or maybe it’s the flying sword that Wang Li longs for the most!
But Qingchi had no similar meaning at all.
Wang Li looked at his back and frowned slightly.
The journey back home is at least more than three hundred miles. Do we really have to walk?
Even if he went back alone, he had never made such a plan!
Therefore, even if the old monk uses "spiritual energy to transform into a horse" next second, he guarantees that he will not laugh. This chapter has been completed!
