We are in sync.
In the room on the second floor, when the toad opened his eyes and said, "What a cowardly little demon!", Nie Honglian, who was on the opposite wall, came out of the scroll and seemed to feel uneasy as well.
"Master Toad, what happened? I feel like the young master..."
Pop.
Standing on the floor with two flippers, the Toad Taoist ran to the bookshelf, took out the black-patterned gourd and put it behind his back, then waved his flippers at the female ghost with a serious expression.
"With me here, I will definitely keep this silly disciple safe. Go to the next room and wake up that little Taoist priest!"
Hong Lian nodded, turned around and went into the painting, then floated out again, sticking out her tongue embarrassedly.
"I was a little anxious and took the wrong path..."
Then, he walked through a nearby wall, passed directly over the curtain close to the wall, and blew a breath at the sleeping Taoist.
"Master Sun, please get up quickly. Something seems to have happened to the young master."
The bed was shaking slightly. Sun Yingxian hugged the wooden pillow and waved away the cold wind with his sleeve, rubbing his face against the pillow.
"Jingqiu... slurp... hehe..."
Nie Honglian spat at him, floated into the room, avoided the sunlight coming in through the window, picked up a basin of water on the shelf, turned around and rushed towards the bed.
Wow!
The Taoist suddenly sat up and shouted, "Jingqiu, you have so much water... water... " He seemed to wake up and wiped the water stains off his face.
"Hey... where does the water come from?"
Suddenly, he saw Nie Honglian and shrank back into the bed. He subconsciously shouted at her, "What are you doing in my room?!"
Hong Lian didn't want to play tricks on him.
"Master Toad is waiting for you next door. It looks like something has happened to the young master."
Sun Yingxian was stunned, and quickly picked up the yellow silk bag on the table, opened the door and ran to the next room. Seeing Toad Taoist standing at the round table with a serious expression, she started asking.
"Did Lu Liangsheng encounter a demon? Is it the fox demon that escaped last time and is here to cause trouble?"
"I don't know, I just feel like something happened to him."
There was one thing Toad didn't say. The demon cultivator who gave birth to Lu Liang was actually still there and had some connection with him. He must be able to feel it when it suddenly overlapped with other demonic energy.
The Taoist thought for a moment, took out the Demon-Hitting Mirror, bit his index finger and put a drop of blood on it, muttering something, and only his voice was heard.
"open!"
A bit of crimson melted away, and a wisp of green gas emerged from the mirror and floated out of the house. Sun Yingxian hurriedly followed.
The Toad Taoist on the table shouted angrily: "Come back, you forgot about me!"
The figure that rushed out of the room turned around again, stretched out his hand to pinch the toad, squeezed it so hard that its eyes almost popped out, ran down the stairs in a hurry, rushed straight to the street, and ran wildly in the direction where the green gas went.
The sky light tilted, and a patch of red appeared in the western clouds.
The chanting team spread out in the crimson, and the scattered petals fell from the roof of the sedan chair. Lu Liangsheng observed through the curtain and found that the team had already left the city.
Along the way, no one from the other side came to talk to him. He just kept chanting scriptures and moving forward. It seemed slow, but in the blink of an eye he arrived at the suburbs.
It should be a spell similar to shrinking the earth into an inch.
Lu Liangsheng looked calm, but he was actually a little nervous. It was not because of the other party's identity as the protector of the country or a monster, but because of the previous sentence "destined person".
In any case, these three words have been puzzling me, and now they are finally about to be solved.
The sedan chair swayed gently. The scholar put his hands on his knees, breathing steadily, and stopped thinking about it. He couldn't give the other person the impression that he was weak.
Well, be tough.
Soon, the team stopped in a forest. Outside the curtain, a woman in a black veil and a horizontal hat could be seen approaching respectfully:
"Mr. Lu, we have arrived. The master is waiting for you in front. Please follow me."
Lu Liangsheng lifted the curtain and walked out, without even looking at the long line behind him. He rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation.
"Please lead the way, young lady."
After figuring things out, the scholar took things as they came, just like he greeted people in the past, casually and freely, with the demeanor of a handsome young man, and followed the woman in black veil toward the side of the forest.
The forest was silent, and it was almost impossible to hear a bird singing. Instead, all around him could be heard the rustling of fallen leaves under Lu Liangsheng's feet. Looking around, he saw a thin mist rising between the trees.
I couldn't help but speak.
"Master, where are you?"
The woman walked straight forward without even looking back.
"The master is just ahead."
After walking another hundred steps or so, the woman came to the edge of the woods, and the view became wider. The scene ahead unfolded in Lu Liangsheng's eyes. That piece of wilderness had been cleared, and a large number of young and strong laborers were dragging rock bricks and building a circular building that was somewhat similar to an altar.
Only the gate had been built a little, with a long white stone staircase leading straight up, and in the middle there was a flat white rock with large carved characters painted red.
The scholar standing by the woods read out the words softly.
"Pudu Cihang..."
"The immortals and Buddhas regard the mortal world as a sea of suffering, so they use their compassion to save sentient beings and help them escape from the sea of life and death, just like using a boat to ferry people across the sea. How good! How good!"
A female Buddhist voice suddenly rang out, and a flock of startled birds in the forest flapped their wings, rushed into the sky, and flew away into the distance.
Lu Liangsheng turned his head and saw that several women in cassocks appeared a few feet away, guarding a sedan chair with a lotus and crane head in the middle.
Inside the unusually long curtain, a thin figure held up the seal of fearlessness and nodded at the scholar.
"Mr. Lu, you and I meet again."
To the side, someone brought a chair over and placed it opposite the sedan chair.
Lu Liangsheng nodded to the woman and walked over to her, bowing. After all, courtesy is always welcome. Since the other party was able to become a Dharma Master, her cultivation must be higher than his. There was nothing wrong in being careful.
On the opposite side, inside the curtain, a figure stood still.
"Mr. Lu, please take a seat."
"Thank you, Master Fa, for the seat."
Lu Liangsheng lowered his hands and walked seven or eight steps away from the opponent's sedan chair. He lifted his robe and sat down. A faint scent of sandalwood entered his nose. He had heard his master say that some monsters could not be sealed properly, but could be worshipped through other means.
This Dharma Master's methods are probably even more sophisticated.
At the moment, I looked carefully at the figure inside the curtain, but unfortunately I couldn't see it clearly. There was a vague aura of peace, which was incompatible with the evil aura of the maids on both sides.
After a moment's silence, Lu Liangsheng broke the deadlock first. He looked sincere and spoke with a bow.
"The abbot has invited me here in a sedan chair. I wonder what it is about? Also, may I ask for the abbot's name?"
"I am the Dharma Master, and I have no taboo name. Didn't I tell Master Lu the Buddhist saying before? Immortals and Buddhas regard the mortal world as a sea of suffering, so they use compassion to save sentient beings..."
The curtains fluttered gently in the wind, and the thin figure bowed to the Buddha.
"People in the world are sinking in the sea of suffering and suffering great disasters. This Dharma Master pays homage to the Buddha with his body, saves all living beings, and sends those struggling in the sea of suffering to the Pure Land on the other side with compassion."
“… Hence the name: Pudu Cihang.”
The words stopped.
The woods swayed, and there was a rustling sound.
