Hongzhi smiled and said, "You ask me, who should I ask? Anyway, it's not you, nor me. I'm hungry too, so let's go. The people who led the way just now seemed to really regard me as the Brahma Heart Sect. They didn't even ask. Ask. I hope you don't reveal your secrets inside." They were walking towards the main hall, Hai Long looked around, suddenly, his body shook slightly and stopped.
Hong Zhi was startled, and said, "Brother, what's wrong with you?" Hai Long didn't answer, but still stood there in a daze. Hiroshi followed his gaze. Not far from the entrance of the main hall, a woman in white clothes stood there, with long hair hanging down her waist, looking so peaceful, with a faint smile on her fair face, she was looking at the distant sky. Hongzhi clearly felt that this woman possessed Buddha spirit, and her cultivation level was much stronger than his own, as if she had entered the realm of Dzogchen. Just when he was about to ask Hai Long something, he found a blue light flashing beside him. Hai Long appeared in front of the woman in white at the fastest speed. His expression was a little excited. Just a little smile.
Daoist Inorganic and the others couldn't help but stop, Yuhua looked at Hai Long and the woman in white, frowning slightly, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes. He asked in a low voice, "Patriarch Wuji, who is that woman? Why does Brother Hailong recognize her?" Hongzhi had already come to Wuji Taoist at this time, and he also wanted to get the answer, so he listened carefully.
Daoist Wu Wu said in a low voice: "That's Lian Shu, the suzerain of the Lotus Sect. The demon heads of the Three Evil Schools are more ruthless than me! She is a dangerous person, so don't provoke her. However, she has a very close relationship with Senior Sister Piao Miao. As for why Hai Long knows her, I don't know. Let's Go in first." Saying that, she dragged the dissatisfied Yuhua into the hall.
Hai Long came to Lian Shu impulsively. In his impression, the last time he left the mountain, Lian Shu was one of the few people who treated him well. Hai Long still feels very friendly, he has no immunity to beautiful women. "Lian, Lianshu, suzerain. Do you still know me? We haven't seen each other for a long time."
Lian Shu was slightly taken aback. Eight hundred years had passed, and Hai Long's temperament had also undergone great changes, and his figure was even bigger. How could she recognize Hai Long when he suddenly appeared in front of her? Indifferently said: "Fellow Taoist is He Zong's? Have we really met?" Hai Long nodded vigorously and said: "Of course I have. Do you still remember, eight hundred years ago, when I was in Brahma Heart Sect? , I went with Patriarch Piaomiao and Patriarch Zhishui to attend the gathering of the seven sects, but I left first. I am Hai Long!"
Lian Shu's heart moved slightly, and she immediately remembered Hai Long's appearance when he dared to ridicule Wuzhao Xianmu Song Sect Master in front of everyone, looked him up and down, smiled and said: "So it's you. I haven't seen you for eight hundred years, your appearance has changed." Many. I can’t even recognize you. Judging by your appearance, your cultivation should have improved a lot. Are you here to participate in the rookie contest this time?”
Hai Long felt a thirst in his throat, and the faint sandalwood scent from Lian Shu's body made his heart skip a beat, "Yes! I'm here to participate in the competition this time. Sovereign, it's great to see you again."
"Ah! Big brother, why don't you introduce me. Finally, I have the opportunity to visit the master of Buddhism. Hello, hello, my name is Hongzhi." Hongzhi's appearance is not much worse than Hai Long. The cultivation method of Zen sect is quite different from that of Brahma-mind sect. They pursue freedom, and they don't practice as hard as Brahma-mind sect. Naturally, they are weaker in concentration.
Hai Long really wanted to kick Hong Zhi to the sky, but with Lian Shu by his side, how could he be rude? He had no choice but to give Hongzhi a hard look, and said to Lianshu, "Sect Master, this is my little brother Hongzhi."
When Lian Shu saw Hong Zhi, she couldn't help showing a hint of surprise, "You are a disciple of that senior brother of Brahma Heart Sect, I don't seem to have met you before."
Hai Long smiled and said: "He is not a disciple of anyone, my little brother comes from Zen. Have you heard of it, suzerain?"
Lian Shu's complexion changed, she looked at Hongzhi in surprise, and said, "Zen, so Zen still exists. Eight thousand years ago, Zen was the largest Buddhist sect in China, but then it declined for some reason. Unexpectedly, there are still disciples He is still alive. Judging by the Buddhist aura of senior brother, it seems that he is about to enter the realm of Dzogchen." When she heard that Hong Zhi was not a member of Brahma Heart Sect, she immediately changed her name to senior brother. My heart is full of shock. Seriously speaking, both the Brahma Heart Sect and the Lotus Sect can be regarded as evolved from Zen Buddhism.
Hongzhi scratched his bald head, and said, "You are welcome, the suzerain. I am the only disciple left in our Zen sect. It is a blessing to meet the suzerain today."
After being surprised, Lian Shu returned to her normal state, sighed lightly, and said, "We are a family of Buddhist cultivators, and Master Wuyun of the Brahma Heart Sect is also here, and I will introduce you to him later. Brother, it’s good to practice the Dharma a lot.”
Hong Zhi blushed, and said: "The suzerain is joking, the little monk has a low level of cultivation, how can he be compared with the two suzerains. It is the little monk who should ask for the teaching."
Lian Shu glanced at Hai Long, and said calmly, "You two, follow me into the hall." As she spoke, she didn't see her moving, and entered the hall lightly.
Hong Zhi looked at Lian Shu's disappearing back as if he had lost his soul, and he didn't wake up until Hai Long stabbed him a few times. Hai Long said via voice transmission: "Xiao Zhi, you don't think you have a crush on Sect Master Lian Shu, do you?"
Hongzhi was shocked, and said slightly angrily, "Brother, don't talk nonsense. I just feel very close to the huge Buddha spirit contained in Sect Master Lianshu. We Buddhist practitioners, how can we think about your mundane things? Don't mention it again in the future. It will blaspheme Sect Master Lianshu."
Hai Long was taken aback, this was the first time that Hong Zhi contradicted him in a serious tone, obviously Lian Shu held a very high status in his heart. He was indeed wrong. Lian Shu's beauty is certainly one of the reasons why Hongzhi is attracted to Lian Shu, but more importantly, it is because of the huge Buddha spirit contained in Lian Shu. The Buddha energy after reaching Dzogchen was somewhat similar to Hongzhi's master. Seeing her, Hongzhi seemed to see his master again, that's why he had a absent-minded reaction. Looking at Hong Zhi's gloomy eyes, Hai Long patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I don't say anything. Don't think too much, let's go in."
Hong Zhi touched his bald head and said, "Brother, I didn't mean to lose my temper with you, you..."
Hai Long interrupted him and said: "Okay, don't say too much if you are a brother. I don't want to know what you are thinking, so let's go." After speaking, he dragged Hong Zhi into the hall.
The main hall is very spacious and well-furnished, with palace lanterns hanging upside down on the dome more than ten meters high, and a total of 21 thick stone pillars standing proudly around it. The main hall seemed a little chaotic, and many practitioners gathered in a pile, chatting. Hai Long looked around, and soon found Wuji Daoist and Yuhua, who were discussing something with more than ten Lianyunzong disciples. But to Hai Long's disappointment, among these Lian Yunzong disciples, there was no Daoist Piao Miao that he expected to see. Lian Shu had already walked to a corner, surrounded by more than a dozen nuns in purple clothes. Hai Long couldn't help but feel a little strange, why didn't Lian Shu, the suzerain of the Lotus Sect, not be ordained
"Brother Hai Long, come quickly!" Yu Ping waved to Hai Long and Hong Zhi. The two just walked over. After the introduction of Wuji Daoist, they learned that more than a dozen Lianyunzong disciples here are three-generation disciples whose cultivation base has exceeded a thousand years, and several of them have even reached the state of Xiaju. Hai Long didn't have a good impression of these people, he just said a few perfunctory words, then stood aside with Hong Zhi, and continued to look at the disciples of other sects in the hall. The area here is about 2,000 square meters, and there are as many as 1,000 disciples from each sect. According to Hai Long's visual inspection, at least half of them have a lower level of cultivation than himself. I thought, are they all here to participate in the rookie competition? what? If that's the case, I don't know how many games will be played.
At this time, Wuji Taoist said: "Yuhua, Yuping, this time our Lian Yunzong's hopes are all pinned on you two. Originally, the suzerain wanted you to participate in the seven newcomer competitions a hundred years ago, but Senior Sister Yun I said that your foundation is not solid enough, so I didn’t agree. Today, a hundred years later, you really lived up to everyone’s expectations. Using a hundred years, you have improved three levels, from the late stage of Wushuang to the state of late burden. Among the disciples who have practiced for less than a thousand years, you can You are the best, and the only ones who can compete with you are the elite of the Central Plains Six Sects. As long as you act carefully, there should be no problem getting the top three. As long as you can get a good ranking, the suzerain will naturally reward you Do you understand?" As he spoke, he winked at the second daughter. Although Daoist Inorganic's voice wasn't too loud, with the magic power of many cultivators present, he could hear it clearly, and many people looked this way. The Yuhua sisters naturally became the target of public criticism.
Seeing that Daoist Wuwu didn't even look at him, Hai Long couldn't help but feel agitated. Previously, Daoist Wuwu clearly knew his cultivation level, but now he pushed Sister Yuhua as the main force. What does he mean? Are you belittling me? Won't. Well, I see, this old guy is really cunning and cunning! I have to be more careful with him in the future.
Yuhua frowned, and said: "Uncle Wuji, why don't you keep your voice down." Daoist Wuwu smiled and said, "Necessary deterrence is still necessary. If you have the strength, everything will be easy."
Yuping giggled and said, "Master, don't expect too much from us. If you don't get the ranking, you can't blame us. Oh, by the way, you just said that the master is here, why? I haven't seen you! I haven't seen Master for more than ten years, and I miss her." Before Dao Zun Wu could reply, a kind voice sounded, "I knew that my two disciples are the best, and Master also wanted to see her." You guys!" Hai Long looked intently, and saw a few people coming out of the back hall, the first one was Daoist Zhiyun, followed by two women, one was the Daoist Zhishui whom Hai Long was most afraid of seeing, And the other one is Taoist Piao Miao who he most wants to see. Eight hundred years have passed, and time has not left the slightest trace on their faces. As soon as Taoist Piao Miao appeared, her unparalleled beauty attracted everyone's attention, but they obviously knew that the three Taoist priests had advanced cultivation levels, and the chaotic hall suddenly fell silent.
"Master." "Master." Two emotional shouts rang out, sisters Yuhua and Yuping flew to Daoist Zhiyun like swallows throwing themselves into their arms, each took a hand of Daoist Zhiyun, and The woman's eye circles turned red. Daoist Zhiyun's cultivation base is advanced, and he has entered the early stage of Douzhuan, but even so, the revealing of the two daughter's true feelings still caused her mood to fluctuate. He said softly: "Good boy. If it wasn't for the rampant evil ways, the master would have gone back to see you a long time ago." At this time, Dao Yan and others who came later also stepped forward to pay respects to the three Taoist priests. Hai Long bit the bullet and followed at the end, saluting equally respectfully, he just hoped that Taoist Zhishui would not notice him. However, he is completely different from others in his blue robe, and Hongzhi has a big bald head, which is particularly conspicuous among the disciples of Lianyunzong. Taoist Piao Miao was the first to discover Hai Long's trace, she said lightly, "You, are you Hai Long? You have left the customs."
Hai Long's whole body was shocked, knowing that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he stepped forward, lowered his head, and said respectfully: "Disciple Dao Yu has met the three Patriarchs. I just left the customs not long ago."
Daoist Zhishui snorted coldly, and said, "Okay! You finally crawled out of that turtle shell. Come find me later."
Daoist Piao Miao glanced at Zhishui Daoist with some blame, "Junior Sister, it's been 800 years, let's forget about Hai Long's little mistake back then. You haven't seen how much he has changed."
Hearing Taoist Piaomiao speak for him, Hai Long couldn't help but raise his head. Feeling the rain-like temperament of Taoist Piaomiao from such a close distance, his heart couldn't help beating violently. He was surprised to find that under his gaze, there was a trace of shyness in the depths of Taoist Piao Miao's eyes. Although it was only fleeting, it still caused Hai Long's mouth to dry up.
