Seven character cards for opening rewards

Chapter 364
"Ning Lang, guess what, what is the big gift I want to give you?"

Ning Lang followed Ye Fenglingge to the south, Ye Fenglingge asked a question on the way, Ning Lang smiled and said: "I just came back from the Demon Realm, so it shouldn't be something that can enhance the power of the five elements, nor is it an immortal method. If it is, there is no need to take me out of the Red Sleeve Heavenly Palace, so I guess the big gift the Palace Lord gave me should be a place, a place that is beneficial to my practice, like Fengchi?"

"clever."

The corners of Ye Fenglinge's mouth raised slightly, she stopped talking, and after leading Ning Lang south for half a stick of incense, she stopped in the air.

There is also a floating island in front of Ning Lang and Ye Fenglingge. Although it is much smaller than the floating island where the Hongxiu Tiangong is located, it is no problem to accommodate dozens of people, but this floating island has not yet been developed. Everything is in the most primitive state, there is even a small stream on the floating island, surrounded by mist, it seems that the aura is not less than that of Fengchi.

Ye Fenglinge said with a smile: "This island is also the site of my Hongxiu Tiangong. It was originally intended to be left to Junze, but I think it is better for him to stay with me, so... this island will be yours from today, But you have to promise me one thing first."

"what's up?"

"You will always be the guest of the Red Sleeve Heavenly Palace."

Ning Lang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I have already promised Palace Master Ye, but this gift is too heavy."

"What? Don't dare to ask for it?"

Ning Lang shook his head and said, "Of course not."

"You can go to Elder Li about how to transform the floating island. He can arrange it for you. Didn't you say you were going to the Western Immortal Territory a few days ago? If your request is not troublesome, maybe wait for you to come from the West When Immortal Territory comes back, this floating island can be fixed."

Ning Lang folded his hands, bowed and said, "Thank you, Palace Master."

Ye Feng Lingge returned the same way in a good mood.

Ning Lang sent her away with his eyes, and landed on the floating island. The ground was fairly flat, and the aura was more abundant than he imagined. Thinking that this island would be his own from today, Ning Lang had a feeling of saying no. Come out happy, even excited.

It is really inconvenient to live in Donglin Courtyard. Until now, Kui'er still lives in that small bed. Although there is a courtyard, there is not much room for her to perform her skills, so that Ning Lang can only go to Fengchi every time she practices. Let's go, it's all right now, with this floating island, there is no need to do anything extra.

Ning Lang turned around, and he didn't want to make it luxurious. He wanted to build a three-story loft on the top, with guests on the first floor, practice on the second floor, and sleep on the third floor.

Then, eight or nine single-family houses were built on the island for Jiang Chen and the others to use.

Thinking of the master and apprentice living here is like living in Miao Miao Peak, Ning Lang became silly.

After staying for half an hour, Ning Lang hurried back to the East Forest Courtyard. Seeing Ning Lang humming a ditty and looking happy, Kui'er couldn't help asking, "Sir, why are you so happy?"

"We're going to have a new home soon."

"what?"

Ning Lang smiled and said, "Palace Master Ye sent me a floating island. If there is no accident, we will be able to move to that floating island in a few months."

"Can I go too?" Kui'er asked timidly.

Ning Lang patted her on the head and said, "What stupid things are you talking about? You are mine now, so of course you have to follow me."

Kui'er lowered her head and smiled shyly.

At night, Ning Lang went up to find Li Wuchang again, and after telling him his thoughts, Li Wuchang agreed to help Ning Lang find someone to build a house on that island. Ning Lang thanked him a few words , and went back to Donglin Courtyard.

Two days later, Ning Lang was about to leave for Buzhou Mountain in the Western Immortal Territory. Before he left, he went to the backyard and found that Gu Tingshan was not in the room. There shouldn't be any danger if you don't take the initiative to go to the East Immortal Territory to find trouble with the Palace of Longevity, so Ning Lang didn't think much about it, and then went to say goodbye to Ye Fenglingge.

Then, he went directly to the Western Immortal Territory.

……

……

West Immortal Territory, Tianzhu Temple.

The monastery was extremely lively. A group of Buddhist disciples were all standing in the courtyard. Among them, Xiuzhu, Xiuxing, and Xiulin were also present. A group of people were discussing something in twos and threes, and everyone's face was full of expectations.

"I don't know who will be lucky enough to study Buddhism with the host this time."

"It depends on who's verse can satisfy the presiding officer." [Gather: Chanting words in Buddhist scriptures]

"I think Senior Brother Xiuzhu is the most promising. He has learned so many scriptures."

"Not necessarily, Senior Brother Xiu Lin is also very promising."

"Stop talking, the host abbot is here."

An old monk in a yellow robe came out of the house. The moment he appeared, all the disciples in the courtyard immediately fell silent, and each of them put their hands on their chests, saying respectfully: "I have met the abbot."

The old monk pressed his hand and said, "Sit down."

All together, everyone sat down on the futons on the ground.

"I told you a few days ago that I will check the verses you wrote today. Anyone who writes verses that contain the Dao of Time can study Buddhism with me. Which one of you will come first?"

"Abbot, I'll come first."

"it is good."

A disciple got up and said catchyly: "The eyes of the gold flakes are cloudy, and the clothes and pearls are dusty. The spirit is still not heavy, who is the Buddha?"

The old monk shook his head slightly, as if a little dissatisfied, he said, "Next."

A disciple got up again and recited the verse he had composed.

The host abbot still shook his head dissatisfied.

The disciples got up one by one, and got the same result. Until Xiu Lin finished speaking and Xiu Zhu stood up, everyone looked at Xiu Zhu expectantly. Everyone was very much looking forward to what Xiu Zhu could say.

Xiuzhu paused for a moment, then said: "The body is like a bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror stand. Always wipe it diligently so as not to stir up dust."

"it is good."

As soon as he finished speaking, there were cheering disciples applauding from the sidelines, and everyone was whispering to each other, discussing the verses written by Xiuzhu.

In the end, they all looked at the host abbot, expecting what he would say.

half an hour.

The abbot said calmly: "If you write this sentence, you have not seen your true nature, you are only outside the door but not inside the door."

After hearing this, Xiu Zhu sat down calmly.

The abbot asked again: "Who else has not written a verse?"

No one answered.

"Kong Chen, why don't you speak?"

Only then did Ye Kongchen, who was sitting in the last row, say, "Shall I write a gatha too?"

"nature."

Ye Kongchen just got up, and after contemplating for a while, he said slowly: "There is no tree for Bodhi, and the mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust?"

As soon as this gatha came out, everyone's faces showed a look of surprise.

This is obviously to refute senior brother Xiuzhu's point of view just now, but the old monk still shook his head and said, "It's still far from the great way I said."

After speaking, the old monk sighed softly and got up to leave.

A group of Buddhist disciples were all disappointed. They didn't expect that there were so many verses, and the presiding abbot would not be satisfied with any of them. This shows that none of them met the requirements of the abbot.

Ye Kongchen frowned, and at the moment the old monk stepped up the steps, he hastily changed his words: "The Dharma is in the world, and you can never leave it. Seeking Bodhi in the world is like asking for the horns of a rabbit."

Quiet for a moment.

"Great goodness."

The old monk turned around, nodded and said: "From now on, you will study Buddhism with me. Before sitting down, I will write a scripture containing the Dao every word."

Hearing this, everyone looked at Ye Kongchen with envy.

They didn't expect that a person from the small world would be recognized by the presiding abbot in just three years, even Xiu Zhu was very envious.

Just now.

A young monk hurried into the courtyard, he said: "Abbot, there is a man outside who claims to be Ning Lang, who said he was passing by here and wanted to visit."

"Ning Lang?"

Xiu Zhu, Xiu Lin, and Xiu Xing immediately said, "Abbot, he is the one we met in the Demon Hunt Competition."

The moment the young monk said this name, Ye Kongchen's expression changed, and he muttered to himself, "Could it be him?"

"Let him in."

"Yes."

The young monk led Ning Lang into the yard in a hurry. Ning Lang didn't show much when he saw Xiuzhu and the three of them. When he saw Ye Kongchen, he said with a face full of surprise: "Ye Kong Dust? You also ascended?!"

Ye Kongchen smiled slightly: "Ning Lang, long time no see."

"Do you know?"

"Naturally." Ning Lang and Ye Kongchen said in unison.

Ning Lang smiled and said, "We were friends before we ascended to the Immortal Realm."

When the word "friend" was mentioned, Ye Kongchen also had a smile on his face.

Speaking of which, Ning Lang has only met Ye Kongchen four times so far, and each time they met, they left in a hurry. Unspeakably happy.

When the fellow sees the fellow, tears well up.

Although it is not so exaggerated, there is still that feeling of belonging to the human world.

"I see."

"Fellow Daoist Ning, why did you come to West Immortal Territory so soon?"

Ning Lang smiled and said: "I originally planned to go to Buzhou Mountain, but I happened to pass by your Tianzhu Temple, so I came over to talk to the monk at the door, and unexpectedly he led me in."

"It's an old friend, let's go to the courtyard to talk about it." The old monk said.

After Ning Lang saw it, he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Master Abbot."
