The ninth monk

Lu Gong greeted everyone one by one. When he saw the little sword demon sitting in the front seat, he was obviously stunned because he did not remember that there was such a number one friend in the county.

Mo Yunzi looked at Lu Gong coldly and asked, "Are you the carpenter?"

"Carpenter?" Lu Gong was stunned again. After thinking about it, he laughed dumbly and nodded, "Yes, I am a carpenter."

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Don't wait there and hurry up and auction that wood carving. I don't have time to wait here with you." Mo Yunzi urged.

"I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. I'll start the auction right away." Seeing the arrogant tone of the little sword demon, Lu Gong thought that the little sword demon must have a strong background, so he didn't dare to contradict him, so he agreed.

Lu Gong greeted everyone he knew, then walked to the wood carvings and announced that the auction had officially begun. He stretched out his hand, pinched the red cloth, opened it, and showed everyone his latest proud work.

The wood carving shows a soft orange-red color, and the overall shape is an oblique cylindrical shape. The curved base of the wood carving is carved with flowing clouds, and a tall building is supported above the clouds. Halfway up the building, there is a flying fairy.

There are half-open and fully-open windows on the body. There are people inside the windows, and the sculptures are lifelike.

Whether it is flowing clouds, tall buildings or small people, they all conform to the original shape of the entire tree root. There is no drastic cutting, and the original wood is retained to the maximum extent. The surface of the wood carving has been polished, smooth and shiny, and looks very good.

It's pleasing to the eye.

This wood carving, both in terms of wood and carving, is of the highest quality. Even a layman would find it very beautiful. Seeing the true appearance of this wood carving, everyone's eyes lit up.

Zhao Zheng looked at the wood carving and nodded secretly. This wood carving fully met his requirements. However, Mo Yunzi also wanted to participate in the auction. If he snatched this wood carving from Mo Yunzi, it would definitely lead to conflicts between the two. He was not Mo Yunzi.

It is not a wise move to establish Mo Yunzi as an enemy for a piece of wood carving.

There was a lot of discussion, and many people expressed their intention to buy it.

"Huanghuali wood as big as this is very rare these days. When I got this piece of wood, I put a lot of thought into it, for fear of wasting this good material. I just conceived the theme.

After a full month, finally one night, when facing the moon

I found inspiration and thought of carving a pavilion in the sky. I named this work 'Qionglou Wooden House'. The starting price is 5,000 taels of silver. You can increase the price actively. This time, as usual, the highest bidder will win."

Lu Gong twirled his beard with his hand and introduced to everyone with some pride.

The auction started like this, and the wealthy businessmen who took a fancy to this "Qionglou Wooden House" took action one after another, constantly raising the price, and soon the price reached 7,500 taels of silver.

Mo Yunzi frowned, glanced coldly at the many bidders around him, and said with a threat: "I will pay eight thousand taels of silver. If someone bids more, I will add the sword in my hand as a pledge. Who?

If you are interested in my sword, you can increase the price and give it a try."

As soon as these words came out, it was like a ladle of cold water that dampened everyone's enthusiasm for bidding. Anyone could hear the threat in Xiao Jian Mo's words. If anyone dared to raise the price, he would definitely offend Xiao Jian Mo. Who

Not wanting to offend a powerful warrior for a piece of wood carving, they all gave up the idea of ​​bidding, and the auction fell into a cold mood.

Zhao Zheng took a deep look at Mo Yunzi, hesitated again and again, and gave up the idea of ​​bidding.

"It seems that this 'Qionglou Wooden House' is mine." Seeing everyone's silence, Mo Yunzi smiled proudly.

Lu Gong looked sad when he saw that no one was participating in the bidding. The current price was far lower than he expected. Although he had made a lot of money, it was not worth the hard work he had put in for many days. He glanced at everyone, feeling unwilling to do so.

He asked: "Dear friends, is there anyone else willing to increase the price?"

"No need to ask, no one dares to increase the price. No one will throw away their life for a piece of wood carving, right?" Mo Yunzi sneered.

"Yes, you are absolutely right." Lu Gong's face became even more ugly, and he gave up the idea of ​​persuading others to raise the price, otherwise he would definitely offend the young warrior in front of him. He dryly announced that the wood carving belonged to Mo Yunzi,

Then asked about Mo Yunzi's name, Mo Yunzi answered calmly.

Since Mo Yunzi had just been born at this time and had not yet become famous in the world, no one present recognized him.

The two parties made a deal on the spot, and the servant carefully put the wood carving into a large wooden box filled with cotton, carried it, and followed Mo Yunzi, leaving the yard together.

Zhao Zheng watched depressedly as Mo Yunzi took away the wood carving he wanted, but there was nothing he could do. He did not stay and then left the yard.

While walking on the road, he repeatedly thought about wood carvings. He must get one wood carving. If he could not get this Qionglou Wooden Building, he would have to find a way to get other wood carvings. Many of the wood carvings Lu Gong had carved before were

If it flows into the local area, you can consider purchasing these early works.

In addition, he also thought of stealing or robbing Qionglou Muyu from Mo Yunzi. Mo Yunzi is not a good bird, so you don't have to be polite to Mo Yunzi. It's just that the risk of doing so is too great, and there is no complete guarantee, so it should not be rash.

Take action.

He returned to the inn where he was temporarily staying and met Xu Hong and Xuan Mie in front of his room. The two people seemed to have been waiting for him, which was a bit unusual.

"Why are you two guarding the door of my room?" Zhao Zheng asked curiously.

"We are waiting for you here because we have something important to tell you." Xu Hong said solemnly.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Zheng was quite surprised. He didn't expect anything important to happen to these two people.

"I listened to Master Xuan Mie's sermons along the way, and I untied many knots in my heart. I no longer have any nostalgia for the world of mortals. I plan to find a nunnery and become a nun. I will never be involved in worldly affairs again." Xu Hong's tone was calm, but

There is a sense of determination.

"You want to become a monk?" Zhao Zheng was very surprised.

"Yes."

"But..." Zhao Zheng had no interest in becoming a monk or nun, so he kindly advised, "What's so good about becoming a monk? Don't act impulsively."

"I'm not impulsive. This is a decision I made after careful consideration." Xu Hong shook his head.

"You are free now. Why not find a good man to marry and start a family? Why should you become a monk?"

"Mr. Zhao, you think you can be happy only by having a family, but I have no interest in starting a family. I have been an artist for many years and have long been accustomed to men's faces. For me, instead of finding a man to marry, it is better to be a nun.

It's better." Xu Hong lowered his brows and sighed softly, "And after experiencing Zhou Kui, I am even more disappointed with people's hearts. People can do anything for wealth. Only Buddhism

Only then can we change the world and awaken the kindness in people’s hearts.”

"Everyone has his own ambitions. Since you have a way to become a monk, I won't stop you. But I hope you can be more careful when making this decision. Being a nun is not just about shaving your hair."

"Don't worry. I made this decision after thinking about it for a long time. It was not an impulsive decision." Xu Hong stretched out her jade hands and grabbed the black hair hanging on her shoulders. Her bamboo-like fingers pierced through the smooth black hair.

Seemingly black and white, "It would be better to shave off these three thousand worries as soon as possible."

Zhao Zheng saw that Xu Hong had made up his mind and stopped trying to persuade him. He turned to look at Xuan Mie, who was standing quietly, and said with a wry smile: "Master Xuan Mie is really powerful. He was able to persuade Sister Xu to choose to become a monk in just a few days.

.”

"The donor's words were wrong. The poor monk did not persuade her, but she became enlightened on her own. At most, the poor monk just opened a temple door for her, and she chose to step in." Xuan Mie muttered.

Buddha's name, shook his head and said.

"I won't dare chat with you in the future, lest you say I'm enlightened and become a monk in the Shaolin Temple."

"You are different from Benefactor Xu. You are not the kind of person who would escape into Buddhism. You have too many desires in your heart and too many ties in your body."

"There is no human being without sexual desire. Isn't it a kind of sexual desire for a monk to go to the Paradise of Paradise?"

"Donor, don't slander Buddhism. Going to the Paradise is not a desire, but a 'wish power'. The nature of the two is very different. Let the poor monk explain it to you." Xuan Mie opened it.

Chatterbox, and have to have a long talk again.

"Stop it, stop it!" Zhao Zheng waved his hand quickly, "I am afraid of you, so please spare me. I have no interest in Buddhism at all. I am a layman and cannot climb the golden threshold of Buddhism."

Xuan Mie choked back a large part of his words and was stunned for a moment. Then he shook his head and said, "Alas, I have no chance to live with the Buddha."

Zhao Zheng wished he had no chance to meet the Buddha, so he stopped discussing this with Xuan Mie. He turned to Xu Hong and asked, "Sister Xu, which nunnery do you want to go to to become a monk? Do you have any plans?"

"To the east of here is the Hengshan Sect, one of the Five Mountains. It recruits many believers and is the largest nunnery in Dayan. I want to become a monk there." Xu Hong replied.

Among the long list of forces in the world of "One Temple, Three Pure Lands, Five Mountains, Eight Gates and Nine Sects...", the Hengshan Sect is one of the Five Mountains. The sect is built on Mount Hengshan and is a nunnery. Many nuns in the Hengshan Sect rely on

Wulai strengthens the body,

Some of the outstanding ones are quite good in martial arts, and the leader is one of the first-class masters. However, the Hengshan Sect does not insist on practicing martial arts. Beginner disciples can choose on their own. There are also a large number of nuns who focus on Buddhism and do not touch martial arts.

If Xu Hong went to an ordinary nunnery, Zhao Zheng might never meet her again, but if she went to the Hengshan sect, the two might still meet in the world in the future.

Zhao Zheng nodded and said: "It's good to go to the Hengshan sect. You might be able to learn two-hand martial arts."

"I don't care about learning martial arts. I just heard that there are two female masters there who are very good at studying Buddhism, so I wanted to worship them," Xu Hong said.

"You want to go east, and I want to go south. The two places are far apart. What can I do?" Zhao Zheng had a problem with this. He didn't have enough time. If Xu Hong was sent all the way,

Going to the Hengshan sect will delay a lot of things.

"Don't worry, the poor monk will be responsible for escorting her to the Hengshan Sect." Xuan Mie said calmly.

"Are you sending her there?" Zhao Zheng asked.

"I was the one who brought her into Buddhism and sent her to the Hengshan Sect. It is my duty to do so."

"In this case, I feel relieved, but after you deliver it, will you still go to Evil Bee Valley?" Zhao Zheng was worried. If Xuan Mie does not go to Evil Bee Valley, this quest line will be cut off, and he will I can no longer obtain Xuan Mie's profound skills.

"Since it is an excellent place for self-cultivation, of course the poor monk should go." Xuan Mie agreed.

"That's good." Zhao Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
