Zen Master Ku Ye struck the wooden fish again and fell into silence.
After a moment, Zen Master Kuye fell on Yi Lin's face, looked at it carefully for a moment, and then said: "He has a pure heart and is destined to be my Buddha."
"But the person you are looking at is me."
Yi Lin smiled.
"He and you are like two poles." Zen Master Kuye sighed deeply: "Yin and Yang, good and evil, wrong and right, sorrow and joy, your fates are destined to be inseparable."
"Oh," Yi Lin shook her head: "I don't believe in fate."
But as soon as the words came out of her mouth, Yi Lin felt a little ironic.
It was precisely because of fate that he arrived in this world.
In the eyes of gods, human beings are humble existences that cannot even control their own destiny.
Yi Lin always believed that he could find something at the end of this world, so he worked hard for it.
Now that I say this, it seems a bit untrue.
Zen Master Ku Ye seemed to have read through Yi Lin's thoughts: "You believe it."
Yi Lin remained silent.
Zen Master Kuye looked at Yi Lin's face again: "Donor Lin, can you believe this, past and present life?"
Yi Lin hesitated for a few seconds and finally nodded.
Zen Master Kuye asked again: "Do you know the legend of the Qijue Empress?"
Why is Xiao Xi involved again?
Yi Lin was stunned.
Xindao Xier, your vest seems to be very famous here.
In silence, Yi Lin neither denied nor affirmed.
He didn't want Zen Master Kuye to think too much.
This time, Zen Master Ku Ye thought Yi Lin didn't know, so he whispered: "Legend has it that five thousand years ago, there was cause and effect and reincarnation in the world. Past lives, present lives, and next lives were written on everyone's face."
"oh?"
Yi Lin glanced at Zen Master Ku Ye curiously. He didn't quite understand the meaning of Zen Master Ku Ye's words.
Zen Master Kuye continued: "But starting from five thousand years ago, the path of life has been completely different. People no longer have previous lives, and they can no longer reach that life. Death is like a lamp extinguished, disappearing between heaven and earth."
Yi Lin remained silent. He listened quietly, listening to the secrets spoken by Zen Master Ku Ye.
"But Lao Na's facial appearance of the benefactor of Guanlin Forest is unclear. The life lines in front and back are unclear. There is no way to see where he came from and no destination to return to."
"Facial physiognomy...with all due respect, I doubt its accuracy."
"Shape comes from the heart."
"Oh," Yi Lin was doubtful, but nodded and asked, "So, what does my face mean?"
Zen Master Ku Ye smiled slightly and said "Amitabha": "This means that the karma between Donor Lin and his previous life has not been severed, and there is no end to the destination of his life pattern, and it is very likely to lead to an unknown other life."
Although Yi Lin could not understand Zen Master Ku Ye's analysis process, he understood the conclusion. In an instant, Yi Lin stood up suddenly and looked at Zen Master Ku Ye in surprise.
After thinking about it carefully, Yi Lin sat down again and her expression returned to calm: "But what does what you said have to do with Empress Qijue?"
Zen Master Ku Ye raised his head and looked up at the colorful tree shadows above. He was silent for a long time before saying something that made Yi Lin change his expression.
"Legend has it that five thousand years ago, the Empress Qijue... interrupted reincarnation with her own hands."
…
When Zen Master Kuye told this legend,
Yi Lin's neck suddenly shrank, feeling a little guilty for no reason.
Empress Qijue...interrupted reincarnation?
How was it interrupted?
What is reincarnation?
Yi Lin clearly remembered that the first words he heard when he turned into the egg were:
"This is the time of reincarnation. But there is no reincarnation in this world...except for you."
Could it be...
Ahem, it's not that outrageous.
…
Yi Lin finally chatted with Zen Master Kuye all night.
Talking from all over the world to the vast sea and sky;
From the ruins of Xiaoleiyin Temple in Hezhou, Xiniu, to the secret realm of Blood Demon Valley in Luzhou, Beiju;
From legends five thousand years ago to current government affairs;
It’s not easy to talk about Yi Lin’s cooking skills to the vegetarian dishes of Dali Temple’s chef.
Yi Lin discovered that there is an advantage to chatting face to face, that is, you can do whatever you want without fear of harmony.
Zen Master Ku Ye is indeed a veteran. He knows almost everything and answers every question, which greatly enriches Yi Lin's experience.
But why "almost"?
There was only one thing. Zen Master Kuye was probably afraid that the young man in front of him would be involved too deeply, so he ended the topic with just a few words and did not go any further.
Yi Lin asked about what happened within the Daqing Dynasty, which forced the eldest princess to flee Qingdu.
Zen Master Ku Ye was silent for a long time.
Only then did he say the eight characters: The building will collapse and trouble will arise.
One night passed.
Until dawn.
Wang Xiaohu and Xia Xiaoman woke up quietly, and the attractive fragrance was already floating in the air.
Yi Lin sat up for breakfast skillfully and cooked a pot of wild vegetable soup.
As soon as they smelled the aroma of vegetables, the two of them stood up, washed themselves at the nearby spring, and sat in front of the pot, hungry, waiting for the meal.
After finishing three large bowls in one go, the eldest princess Xia Xiaoman touched her bare head with satisfaction and sighed: "Sure enough, you can't tell the difference between appearance and appearance. I didn't expect that you, a person with such outstanding cooking skills, can cook such simple wild vegetables."
It has a unique taste and can be described as a miraculous craftsmanship.”
This may sound like a compliment at first, but after thinking about it carefully, Yi Lin glared at the eldest princess: "Your royal family didn't teach you to speak well? Believe it or not, I will beat you up."
"Tsk, I am the eldest princess of Daqing——"
Boom.
Before Yi Lin could wait for Xia Xiaoman to tell her identity, she picked up a ladle and slammed it on the eldest princess's head, making a crisp sound.
The eldest princess was in pain, covering her head and glaring fiercely at the young man who dared to rebel, thinking that when she regains her status as a princess one day, she must make him look good.
After eating and drinking, the group of people took advantage of the morning light and set out on the road again when the sky was dim.
In the end, they still hadn't waited for Jian Nanchun and Chao Rushuang.
But since their destination is the same, they only need to reach the coast of the East China Sea to finally reunite.
In fact, with the Knock Sword Order, whether Jian Nanchun and Chao Rushuang came or not was no longer important to Yi Lin.
All he had to do was to arrive at the shore of the East China Sea as soon as possible, activate the sword order, and let the people from the Tianjian Sect come to receive him.
A few days later.
They spanned the mountains of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
After Dongzhou Mountain, there is an endless plain, and to the east of the plain, there is an endless ocean.
A few people stood on the top of the Dongzhou Mountain and looked out. The blue ocean reflected the harsh light. In the distance, the sea mist was hazy and the clouds were lingering. There were faintly undulating mountain peaks hidden in it. But if you look closer, it is like a mirage, luxurious.
The beauty disappeared.
Faintly appearing, sometimes distant, sometimes absent, waiting quietly for the destined person, this is the fairyland overseas.
It seems very close, but in fact it may be tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of miles away from the shore.
When they were about to go down the mountain and head to the beach, something happened that surprised Yi Lin.
Wang Xiaohu walked up to Yi Lin with some embarrassment and whispered: "Brother Lin, I have decided. I want to go to Marble to practice with Master Kuye. He said that if I go to practice Buddhism, I will definitely achieve something."
Zen Master Ku Ye was standing by, with uncontrollable joy in his brows.
Then Yi Lin understood.
He patted Wang Xiaohu on the shoulder, feeling mixed emotions in his heart: "Congratulations."
It sounds like this was said to Wang Xiaohu, but in fact Yi Lin said it to Zen Master Kuye.
Congratulations, you finally succeeded in cheating!
Zen Master Kuye caught Yi Lin's eyes and smiled without saying a word.
"Master, did you send it here?"
Yi Lin clasped her hands together. Although Zen Master Ku Ye deceived Yi Lin's childhood playmate Wang Xiaohu and ran away, Yi Lin still respected this Buddhist monk deep down in her heart. Every night, Yi Lin would always talk to Ku Ye.
The Zen master held a candle and talked at night. When he thought that Zen Master Kuye would be gone in the following days, he was still a little reluctant to leave.
Zen Master Kuye recited Amitabha Buddha lightly and said with a smile: "Lao Na and Xiao Hu should go back. The road ahead belongs to Donor Lin and Her Royal Highness the Princess."
The eldest princess was a little unhappy.
But with her status, it was not easy for her to stalk him, so she stood aside with a dark face and remained silent.
"Brother Lin, take care."
Wang Xiaohu and Yi Lin walked out of Qingniu Village at the same time. Unexpectedly, they would part ways not long after they came out. This was the first time that Wang Xiaohu felt that things in the world are impermanent and people are separated and reunited.
Speaking of being sad, Yi Lin was actually not that sad at all. She smiled and said, "All the feasts in the world must come to an end."
"Donor Lin, before leaving, I gave the donor something. I hope Donor Lin can take pity on the common people for my sake."
Saying that, Zen Master Ku Ye took out a small, flat cloth bag from his luggage and handed it to Yi Lin.
Yi Lin weighed it for a moment and found that there was a book inside.
"Secrets?"
Yi Lin shook the small cloth bag and asked.
Zen Master Ku Ye did not hide anything, and revealed the items in the cloth bag in front of others: "Qingming Mantra, Dali Temple's entrance to practice Buddhism. A little practice can make Donor Lin clear his mind and clear his mind during practice, which is the icing on the cake. This is the icing on the cake."
It is not a profound secret method, I hope Lin Donor will not dislike it."
"How is that possible?" Yi Lin put away his smile and clasped his hands together: "So, thank you, Master."
