Chapter 66
(7)

The main hall of Qingliang Temple is surrounded by lush greenery and is independent from the world.The vegetation is dense and dense, and the side halls on both sides are hidden behind the forest; there is also a clear water pool in front of the door, in which two or three fishes come and go.Every time I see such a quiet place, I can't help but think: Do people who practice here know a thing or two about the earth-shaking changes in the outside world?
There are winding paths leading to the seclusion on the pond, but the road leading to the main hall is wide and straight.The original silent building, under the unique structure, seems to be entrusted with the instructions of a Buddhist temple, and tells every guest who comes to worship: "The road to Buddhism and Zen will always be open to people..."

The twilight bell came from the hillside behind the main hall.Hearing that the bell rang out, the crowd on the Qingchi suddenly increased.They all came from the main hall or the back mountain, and they all went in the direction of the two side halls.The night was fading, and the fluorescent light flickered slightly.This light is not the starlight in the sky, nor the candlelight in the hands of the monks, but the little lights hanging in the dark place.In the direction of the side hall, the houses are like a row upon row, and neatly arranged lanterns with gauze cover are regularly hung on the eaves every few rooms.

The monks did not have any lights in their hands, and only walked by the soft light of the gauze lamp.Maybe it's because I've walked this road too many times, and my heart can see it more clearly than my eyes.I saw that many monks entered one after another under the soft light: some of them turned off the lights and went to bed after entering the door, some read at night with the lights on, and some gathered with two or three friends, and sat down and talked about it.The side hall is the place where the monks live and rest, and our protagonist naturally sleeps in it.At this time, the candlelight and human voices were still constant. Some monks recited the scriptures of exorcising evil and exorcising evil. The voice was not loud, but the tone was upright and powerful.Therefore, the story of this night has to be told from the second half of the night.

That young man who was obsessed with beautiful scenery and beauties during the day did not know why he stayed up all night.Maybe it was because he arrived at this place of Buddhism, and his state of mind became more accessible.The things that he had been puzzled about for a long time finally had some clues.The young man lit the crimson lamp beside the bed, and the bright light suddenly filled the entire wing.This room is not big, there is only a straw mat on the bed, there is a small bookshelf by the bed, the only furniture in the room is the table next to the bed.In addition to the crimson gauze lamp on the table, it was Bai Feng's unexpectedly obtained sword.

The young man looked at the dark purple scabbard, and the four seal characters "White Snake Immortal" made the light from the yarn lamp glow red.He suddenly recalled a sentence his master once said, and also understood the reason why he had not been able to sleep for a long time: "Since you want to change the world, you must bear everything brought about by this change. Do you have such an awareness?" Master's slender figure with white hair and beard suddenly appeared in Bai Feng's mind.

"I traveled thousands of miles and ruined the peaceful life of others. Even if it awakens the conscience of others, even if I am right, but..." Bai Feng suddenly recalled the incident of the Yangcheng bandit: because he did not listen to the Xianbei warrior Tuo Ba Chong's advice, personally buried the lives of hundreds of people.The haze brought by this incident never left the young man's heart.Therefore, he realized that his current self simply did not possess what Master said—“enlightenment”.

"If Yang Ji was attacked by bandits and died in a foreign land when he returned to his hometown, what should he do?" Such thoughts flooded into Bai Feng's mind in an instant.The gentle and virtuous Mrs. Yang, the lovely baby girl who was born not long ago, may all be annihilated because of his arrival.In that unknown mountain col, dying for meaningless things, just like all the tragedies he had witnessed and heard with his own eyes.But until now, no matter how regretful it is, it is useless.The boy's hands were already stained with blood.No matter how legitimate the reasons are, there is no essential difference between today's Bai Feng and the Xianbei people who ravaged his hometown back then: both of them are also for their own desires, using other people's lives as a stepping stone, wantonly leaving a mark on the fate of others.

"All I can do is to realize the ambition in my heart, to bring peace to the world, and to comfort those who lost their lives because of me! Now the opportunity is in front of me - Yuyi Town, which is where I can show my skills. I can't be slack like I am now!" Bai Feng said in his heart, and couldn't help but pull out the sword in his hand and wave it.

The Long Mingjian hummed, and the heroic figure of the young man dancing the sword was reflected on the wooden wall by the lights.Although the range of movements is not large, every move is extremely precise and fast.His loose hair moved with him, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes.These tears are either tears of confusion, or tears of compassion, but in the next moment, they all turn into the power that Bai Feng used to drive the sword.

Bai Feng, who was obsessed with sword dance, just to cut off thousands of troubled threads, had inadvertently left the vicinity of the table and reached the wider door.At this time, outside the door, there was a girl who was looking for the cold sound of sword cries.Bai Feng didn't notice that the girl outside the door had been standing for a while, and was about to push the door to enter, but the boy just raised his sword and sent a stab in the direction of the door!
Seeing the sword approaching, Murong Yan was so frightened that she took a step back. She stumbled again from the pain and fell straight to the ground.The lighting crimson lamp in his hand also fell to the ground.Seeing this, Bai Feng in the house hurriedly retracted his sword and sheathed it, and helped the other party into the hut to rest.

In the hut that was full of melancholy thoughts, there was a gentle town that could touch the heart of this young man the most.Bai Feng carefully untied Murong Yan's shoelaces, intending to check the injuries on her feet.Although Murong Yan, who was sitting on the bed, pushed her face several times, she still couldn't resist the boy's blunt words of concern.

"The blood scab from the wound has actually faded away, and the speed of recovery is really beyond human's reach!" Bai Feng rubbed the other's feet lightly and whispered back.

"Of course! With such a skin injury, Yan'er has recovered very quickly since she was a child. It's not enough to mention!" Murong Yan nodded, looking at the boy who was kneeling on the ground, and replied proudly.

Bai Feng, who had loose hair, squinted and smiled and looked at the other party. She scratched the soles of the other party's feet with her fingers. Murong Yan was startled, and then sneered, "Looking at you, you are still stubborn!"

"Brother Feng! Don't think that people who are blind and blind can bully people now!" Murong Yan scolded both angrily and joyfully.

The tears that had been hidden in the corners of Baifeng's eyes slowly flowed down his cheeks when he looked up at the other party, and he said with emotion: "Yan'er, if the world is as beautiful as you, how can there be such a thing in this world? How injustice has happened?"

"Brother Feng? What happened to keep you up at night?" Murong Yan stretched out her palm and gently wiped away the tears in the direction of the other's tears.

"Eh?" The young man seemed stunned, as if he had just noticed his embarrassment.But in the blink of an eye, his sad face turned into a comfortable smile, and then he kissed the other person's palm lightly, and said, "I'm fine, with Yaner by my side, all troubles will dissipate, not much to mention! "When speaking of the last four words, Bai Feng also deliberately imitated Murong Yan's tone just now, extremely naughty.

"Why...Suddenly say something that makes people blush..." Murong Yan withdrew the kissed hand and placed it under the other hand, stroking it gently.Immediately, he nodded and lowered his eyebrows, hiding a deep smile, and said shyly.Waiting for a moment, but seeing no response from the other party, he raised his eyes again, only to see a look of horror on Bai Feng's face.

"Yan'er, hold your breath!" After Bai Feng said, he pulled out his long sword with very light and quiet strength and tiptoed out of the door.

Murong Yan also noticed something strange before holding her breath. When the two were talking intimately, a mysterious fragrance filled the air.She watched Bai Feng approach the wooden door slowly, opened it slightly, and watched it for a while.Suddenly, he bullied himself and rushed out of the door, and there was a very small coquettish anger from the door.Then, Bai Feng took a woman dressed as a Miao person back to the hut.

The woman trembled with fright when she saw the silver brilliance of "Long Ming" shining in the night sky.With a light-colored veil hanging on her face, she sat on the wooden floor and made various voices helplessly: "Little brother, the slave family has recognized the wrong person! Please let me go! The slave family thought that only the pair of dogs and men would be the same in this temple. In the same room...really, the slave family really recognized the wrong person..."

"Humph! I know why you came here, your master—that 'big eunuch', what exactly is he trying to do!" Bai Feng raised his sword and pressed close to the Miao girl's throat, so that she had no choice but to raise her head and look at the wicked young man look.

"He... he's not my master, he told me what 'witch' can cure the spots on my face, so I came to Mei Lingshuang! I'm not his, I'm not..." Miao Nushuang The raised hand swayed again and again, and the veil was also shaken off involuntarily, and then subconsciously covered the blue poisonous spot with both hands, and pleaded repeatedly: "Don't look, don't look! Don't look!"

Seeing that she was not malicious, Murong Yan felt that she might be able to help, so she guarded between Miao Nu and Bai Feng, motioned the young man to take back the sword, and immediately crouched beside her, saying, "Girl, let me take a look. Is it? I'm the doctor..."

"Doctor? No, no. Even I can't help it, what's the use of a doctor!" Miao Nv was lying on the ground like a child, making Murong Yan smile.

"Actually, I'm the person you're looking for..."

The Miao girl fixed her eyes on the woman in front of her, and exclaimed, "You? Are you a fool to be a slave? No one would come out and let someone catch him!"

"Yan'er!" Bai Feng was afraid to prevent the enemy from cheating, and was about to raise his sword to kill the Miao girl in front of him.In an instant, a strange force rushed from outside the house, knocking Bai Feng aside.Just as the young man got up, a monk-like warrior appeared in front of him, the suffocating aura on his face made Bai Feng dare not take it lightly.

"Mengdie! Why did you run out while I was sleeping!" The monk bypassed the shocked Murong Yan, bullied himself to the Miao girl, and said, "This offends others, if it wasn't for me Come here, you have been poisoned a long time ago!"

"Smelly monk! Smelly monk! Leave me alone and let me die. With such an ugly face, it would be better for someone to kill him with a sword!" Seeing the savior coming, Miao Nv spoke confidently and loudly. The sound pierced through the still air, enough to wake up the resting monks around.

Seeing that the dark rooms in the side hall gradually lit up one by one, the monk hurriedly folded his hands and apologized to the rest of the room.Immediately, he easily put the Miao girl called Mengdie on his shoulders, let her beat and scolded her, and left.
