"Little benefactor?"
Called something, there was no response for a long time, and there was no sound of water anymore, Xuan Ji suddenly opened his eyes and looked back, only to see a tranquility on the sparkling lake, where is Qing Huan? He was startled, ran over a few steps, and looked around, but before he could save anyone, the water surface was suddenly broken, and a very thin silk thread that shone dazzlingly under the moonlight struck and encircled his wrist , pulling him to the bottom of the lake.
Xuanji's internal energy was sealed, only ordinary human strength, how could he sustain this, he jumped down immediately, causing a big wave, and then the whole person sank to the bottom of the lake extremely quickly.
He saw Qing Huan.
She bares her white jade-like arms and legs, and only wears simple obscene clothes. Her black hair floats in the water, and the moonlight seems to be able to shine from the surface of the lake to the bottom of the lake. It is so clear that Xuanji's heart beats suddenly. .
She grabbed his hand, Xuanji seemed to have forgotten the defense between men and women, he didn't know how he opened his eyes and breathed in the water, he only knew that the moment he was held by her, his ancient well-like heart felt like being boiled wide open. Qing Huan pointed forward, motioning for him to look.
Xuan Ji followed the line of sight of her fingers and saw that there were swarms of fish and colorful aquatic plants, and the moonlight seemed to turn into sprites, blending into the crystal clear lake water. This is such a beautiful world, every grass and stone, every drop of water is a big world. Xuanji had never been to the bottom of the water before, and he didn't know that underwater could be so beautiful. He was greatly shocked by such a peaceful and peaceful yet full of vitality beauty.
Qing Huan knows Xuan Ji's Buddha nature and Buddha heart, as long as he is given enough conditions, he will naturally be able to enlighten the Tao and improve his realm.
She turned over in the water, dexterously like a mermaid, Xuan Ji stared at it bewilderedly, animals never think about other things, they live to survive, live openly, die openly, pursue everything openly. But in this water area, she seemed to live with the heaven and the earth.
I don't know how long he stayed at the bottom of the lake. When Xuan Ji was pushed out of the lake, the sackcloth on his body was wet and stuck to his body, but his handsome face looked so distant and solemn under the moonlight, with picturesque features.
Qing Huan emerged from the water, her long hair flung out beautiful arcs and pearl-like drops of water. She looked at the eminent monk's expression. The eminent monk who does not enter the world and does not understand love. Sitting cross-legged on the shore, clasped his hands together, and sang a Buddha's name, Amitabha.
Qing Huan grabbed her clothes and put them on. There was still a string of crisp bells tied to her feet. As she walked, the sound was melodious. She walked up to the eminent monk with bare feet, bent down, and called out: "Monk."
Xuanji's eyes were slightly closed, it was strange that even though he was wearing rags and sackcloth, even though he was covered in water droplets, his brows were still full of compassion. Qing Huan looked at him for a while, felt bored, turned around and walked towards the bamboo building, but at this moment, Xuan Ji said softly behind him: "I like you."
Not a poor monk, not a small benefactor, but me and you.
Qing Huan originally just wanted him not to be so tense, so she dragged him into the water, but she didn't want him to realize the Tao... but realized the way of men and women
Under the bright moonlight, the little girl didn't look back, and Xuan Ji didn't care whether she turned her head or not, and whether she responded to her feelings. He only wants to be worthy of his heart and worthy of the Buddha. "If I hear it, my heart is like Bodhi, and only then will I get dust. I have realized the Tao, and I have a clear conscience."
"Even if you like me? A witch?" Qing Huan turned around and tilted her head to look at him. The eminent monk looked extraordinarily sacred and solemn under the moonlight, and even confessed his feelings as if he was meditating.
"Before the master passed away, he once said that I have gone through the world and seen the sufferings in the world, so that I can save all sentient beings and cultivate the right fruit. However, I have always resisted the love between men and women. Whether it is Haitang or Baiyue, I have no love, no worries, no worries for them. Worry, I thought this was my life, but I didn't expect you to be my way."
This person... Qing Huan seemed to see the ten thousand zhang Buddha's light on the other person. So frank, so idealistic, so pious, a born monk. "What if I don't like you?"
"I have no regrets." Since he has fallen in love, it is his business. If there is no love in your heart, how can you love others? Xuan Ji couldn't fully explain what he got underwater just now, but the moment he surfaced, he really understood that he had to face up to his own heart, and face and accept it calmly.
To be honest, Qing Huan is very old even if she does not count the time that cannot be measured by numbers at the bottom of Wangchuan River. There are countless men who love her. She has experienced countless loves. Every world, She has also dedicated her loyalty, and she has seen all kinds of confessions, and it is really the first time that Xuan Ji has done this.
He likes you, it doesn't matter whether you like him or not, he doesn't ask for anything in return, he seeks the way all his life, and you are his way.
Ordinary monks find themselves moved, and either refuse to admit it, or suppress it hard, but Xuan Ji confessed frankly, whether the other party accepts it or not, he takes it calmly. reason for the high.
Qing Huan suddenly felt teasing, have you ever seen someone confess to you that they like you, but they have a calm face as if they are talking about the weather today? She threw away the clothes in her hands, still only wearing the obscene clothes, with her long hair loose, she approached Xuan Ji.
Thinking about it, Xuanji has not encountered sexual temptations, at least the female ghost Haitang has done it. But in front of Xuanji, a beautiful woman who has stripped off all her charms is not much different from the grass or stone at hand. All things are souls, he does not only value human beings, nor does he underestimate all things in this world. Free like a mountain, standing still.
She squatted beside her like a child, touching his bald head, the ring scar on it was quite uneven, Qing Huan lightly pointed with her finger, and asked: "Then if I like you too, do you want to return to vulgarity for me? Marry me as your wife, and stay together for the rest of your life? Are you not a monk anymore? Are you not going to save all living beings?"
"I still want to save all sentient beings, but I also like you." Xuanji uttered these words, and then stopped talking, closed his eyes and concentrated on meditating, his clothes were wet, he didn't think it was cumbersome.
Plain and firm, Qing Huan couldn't tell what it was like in her heart. She stood up and walked towards the bamboo building. She had long since lost her love for human beings. She loved everything in this world, but she could no longer love on anyone. She has experienced so many worlds, she has accompanied so many people in her life, but she never fell in love with any of them.
Love, she has been unable to find.
But Xuanji. Qing Huan turned her head and took another look. Under the moonlight, the tall and gentle monk folded his hands and prayed devoutly.
Whether it's Buddha or Dao, Qing Huan doesn't believe in it, she only believes in herself, she doesn't even pay attention to the way of heaven, in the three thousand worlds Mahayana and Hinayana, immortals, Buddhas, devils, demons, corpses, she is neither. She seems alive but not alive, she seems dead but not dead, she is neither a fairy nor a monster, the law of heaven has no control over her, she escapes from the six realms. She is the most unique one in the world, in a corner that the heavens have never noticed, she has become such a happy person today.
Immortality, immortality, immortality, magic power.
But what else is she missing
Why can love every flower and grass in this world, but refuse to love human beings alone? Why is it that countless times have passed, and she still has no affection for people? She obviously has seen gentle and kind people before, but why is she still full of disappointment in her heart
This time, Qing Huan knew that it was not a demon, but confusion.
It was Xuan Ji who confused her.
When she came out from the bottom of the Wangchuan River, heaven and earth contended, she endured hardships and sufferings, she was tenacious, just like Xuanji said, she never had a clear conscience.
Her heart has grown back and is beating, but only through the ghost's heart can she feel emotions. Once it is related to "people", she erects high walls. She looked down at these people condescendingly, and why.
She has also been loved wholeheartedly.
This night, there is no sleep in Qing Huan, and Xuan Ji does not sleep. Early the next morning, Qing Huan lay on the bed and refused to move. She had been thinking all night, but she never expected that she had reached this level, and there were still things she couldn't see through. The thought that it was all the fault of the idiot monk made her unhappy. Yi Gulu turned over and got up, and stepped on the crisp bells with bare feet to find Xuanji, and he didn't want to feel better if she was not feeling well.
What the hell, she didn't want to think about it anymore, and if she wanted to come up with a demon like before, she would live the present well and find some fun for herself, and one day she would figure it out.
One day she will understand, she will understand.
Xuan Ji had already made breakfast, and when she saw her coming, there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth: "Morning."
"How early is it? It's still early in the morning." Qing Huan muttered, the man's gaze was gentle and peaceful, she relaxed her heart to feel it, and her ears felt hot from the sight. Ah... This kind of heart-pounding feeling is felt with other people's hearts.
Xuan Ji heard her mumbling, thought she was childish, and smiled slightly. Qing Huan caught a glimpse of him smiling, and was immediately annoyed: "You laugh at me!"
Declarative sentences, not interrogative sentences. Before Xuan Ji could answer, she slapped him on the body! Then he showed a smug smile: "Did you see your little green plum at the martial arts conference that day?"
It took Xuan Ji a while to realize who Xiao Qingmei was: "You mean Mrs. Bai Yue?"
"Now you know it's called Shitai?" Qing Huan hummed. "Didn't you see that she got fat?"
... He really didn't pay attention.
"I put Gu on them. This Gu is not harmful to the body, but it will stimulate people's appetite, especially meat." Qing Huan deliberately waved her finger in front of Xuan Ji. "I see that compassionate old nun is much older than you, and she has been a monk for so many years, but she can't hold back. I want to see if you can hold back."
Hearing this, Xuan Ji understood, and sat down calmly: "Didn't you just say that you want me to be your experimental product, and you want to use me to test Gu, right? Just as long as you are happy."
It's fine to make her happy, if it wasn't for his invulnerability, she wouldn't bother to talk to him!
