As soon as his voice fell, the birds and beasts left one after another, it was lively but not noisy.
Everyone looked at Chu Li with even more fanatical admiration, wishing they could convert themselves to his disciples.
Chu Li smiled and saluted everyone, then turned around and fluttered away. His feet were light as if he were riding the wind, and he disappeared into the mountains and forests in the blink of an eye. Everyone wanted to keep him but didn't dare, so they could only watch him leave.
In the world of teaching scriptures, they have excellent understanding, their thinking is like lightning, and their wisdom is like pearls. No matter what doubts they have, they can solve them all at once.
"Oh..., it's really amazing!"
“I have never heard such a magical sermon!”
"He is truly an eminent monk!"
"We are very lucky to meet such a master."
Everyone was talking a lot and it was extremely lively. The tranquility of the entire mountain peak was replaced by the noise. All the believers couldn't help but be excited, talking and admiring. They wanted to express their admiration and gratitude in their hearts, but they couldn't fully express it.
They felt that this mountain peak seemed to be exuding a soft atmosphere, and it was exceptionally peaceful standing here.
"We have to ask Master Dingru to teach the sutra a few more times."
"Exactly!"
"After listening to Master Dingru's sermon once, I experienced a rapid improvement. I listened to it three times in a row, and all my thoughts changed. It really changed my way of living!"
"Then we must go and beg Master Dingru to open a forum to lecture again."
"right!"
They connected with each other, and they all wanted to listen to Chu Li's sermon again, and wanted to be immersed in that wonderful fantasy realm.
Unfortunately, when they went to Bao'en Temple, they found that Chu Li had already left Bao'en Temple and went to promote Buddhism elsewhere.
As for where to go, no one knows.
In the end, after these believers made concerted efforts to inquire and find ways through connections, they finally got some information. They only knew that his ultimate goal was the capital. He wanted to go to the capital to promote Buddhism and would give lectures on the way. But in which city he stopped, he said
Not allowed.
Yunding City is not far from the capital, but it is still thousands of miles away. It is faster to take the waterway, which takes half a year, and it may take a year to take the land route. Moreover, the road is not smooth, and there will inevitably be some places where bandits are rampant.
You might lose your life.
Very few people in Yunding City have been to the capital, and they feel inexplicable fear.
But thinking of Chu Li's lectures, I felt confident inexplicably. If a Buddhist cultivator does not have firm faith, he will not reach the end. This may be a test that Master Dingru puts to himself.
So more than a hundred people traveled together, leaving Yunding City and heading to the capital to look for Chuli.
There are tens of thousands of believers, but there are very few who are truly wealthy and have a peaceful mind. It is already rare to have a hundred people.
Although the cost of the waterway traveled by a group of a hundred people was ten times higher, it was comfortable and safe. There were gangs on the waterway to protect them, and there were no water bandits running rampant, so they could go leisurely and leisurely on the boat with peace of mind.
On the way, they kept inquiring about Chu Li's news. Occasionally when they stopped to rest, they would hear news about Chu Li. In which city he held a forum to teach the Dharma, which caused a sensation. In a few days, on which day he would give the Dharma, which caused another sensation.
.
The name of the divine monk Dingru spread more and more widely. When they arrived in the capital, Chu Li had not come yet. After all, when Chu Li stopped in every big city, he would rest for a few days and give lectures.
When more than a hundred of them arrived at the capital, Chu Li hadn't arrived yet, but his reputation had already arrived.
The name of Dingru Divine Monk was not only spread in the jungles of the ten directions of the capital, but also ordinary believers heard about it and were curious to know if he was so magical.
.
It's a pity that Chu Li hasn't arrived yet. The believers are eagerly waiting to see the magic of Ding, who is like a divine monk.
A group of a hundred of them stayed at Tongru Inn, a large inn in the capital, and gathered together to wait for Chu Li. They went out every day to inquire about Chu Li's whereabouts.
Everyone is paying close attention to Chu Li. His name has been spread even before he arrives, so his whereabouts are clear.
In the evening of that day, a group of them came to a small pavilion outside the South City Gate. This small pavilion was close to the roadside and was a place for farewell and reunion. The surrounding woods were lush and the scenery was beautiful.
As the sun set, they had already occupied the inside and outside of the small pavilion, staring at the official road. The inside and outside of the small pavilion unconsciously became quiet.
Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps. They turned around and saw more than two hundred people walking slowly towards them. Their expressions were peaceful and calm, which made them feel familiar, because they all looked like this.
This is a unique temperament that can only be formed after listening to Chu Li's sermons and transforming one's temperament and mind. Although he is not a Buddhist monk, he already has some of the state of mind and majesty of an eminent monk.
The leader of Yunding City is a middle-aged man, Xu Zonglin, who is the top rich man in Yunding City. He acts cheerfully and has won the public's respect, so he has become a leader unknowingly along the way.
He stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Are you here to greet the divine monk Dingru?"
"Exactly." An old man in front of him smiled and said, "Are you laymen too?"
"We are the believers of Yunding City." Xu Zonglin said: "It was like the place where the traces of the divine monks and Buddhas first appeared!"
"Disrespect, disrespect!" the old man said with an admiring look: "It turns out this is Yunding City, we have been famous for a long time, I am Xu Xuan."
"Haha, we are still the same family." Xu Zonglin said with a smile: "We are really destined. The news we heard is that Dingru, the divine monk, will arrive in the capital today. Why haven't you come yet? I wonder if he has been delayed?"
"Haha, it is indeed my family." Xu Xuan smiled and said: "Our news is the same."
He glanced at the hundred people opposite and said with a smile: "But even if it doesn't arrive today, it will definitely arrive tomorrow. We are prepared to wait here forever!"
"That's exactly what I meant!" Xu Zonglin nodded.
The two groups then gathered together, crowded around the booth, and communicated with each other.
Xu Xuan and the others were from Tianpeng City, which was a thousand miles away from the capital, so it was relatively close.
As time passed and the sun became lower and lower, two more groups of believers came over and joined them, reaching a total of two thousand people, attracting the attention of passers-by.
Suddenly, a horse galloped in the distance. A thin knight jumped down from the horse and came to Xu Xuan. He cupped his fists and said, "Master, the holy monk is here and will be arriving soon!"
"Okay! Okay!" Xu Xuan was overjoyed. He took out a bundle of silver from his arms and handed it over. He turned and smiled at everyone: "Dingru, the divine monk, will be here soon!"
Everyone stood up one after another.
At this time, dusk is rising, and silk gauze hangs down from the surrounding fields, and tired birds return to the forest.
In the distance, a monk with fluttering robes and a shining head appeared on the official road. He could be seen from a distance. He walked calmly and leisurely, but the distance of each step was exactly the same, as if measured by a ruler.
"Ding is like a divine monk!" Xu Xuan said excitedly.
Everyone stood up and strode forward to greet him.
Chu Li walked leisurely and saw their waiting. He shook his head secretly. He did not expect that his lectures would have such a great influence. It was indeed different from the lower world. In the lower world, no matter how profound the Buddhist teachings were, everyone still looked at his martial arts.
