Doom Roar

"This benefactor, for tea, the abbot is chanting scriptures in the quiet room, and he will come over later, please wait a moment."

The little novice with a still childish face politely invited Xu Mo into a reception room, presented him with a cup of tea, and left the room with the tea tray.

Jinshan Temple is a well-known monastery in Suzhou Prefecture, with many believers, the donations received on weekdays can even match the tax of a county, and the tea for entertaining guests is naturally not bad.

The tea soup is green and clear, with a delicate smell and a sweet taste. It is obviously the best West Lake Longjing tea.

However, Xu Mo didn't have much research on tea, and drinking tea on weekdays was limited to quenching his thirst, so Jinshan Temple's VIP-like hospitality would inevitably wink at the blind man. [

Sitting on the wooden chair with a tea bowl in his hand, Xu Mo looked calm and calm, but in fact he was still a little uneasy.

Meeting Fa Hai in person this time was a gamble. The gamble was that Fa Hai would strictly abide by the Buddhist rules and would not intervene in mortal affairs without authorization. In this way, even if Bai Suzhen and Cen Biqing could be rescued by Fa Hai, at least their lives would be guaranteed.

But after all, he entered the Leifeng Pagoda at night to destroy the Buddha first, so if Fahai used this as an excuse to kill him, it is not impossible.

Therefore, the risk of coming this time is completely five or five.

He reached out and touched the package tied around his waist. The hard and heavy touch reassured Xu Mo a lot. This is the most critical life-saving talisman for him to meet Fa Hai this time, and he must not lose it.

Not long after, there was a sound of gentle and steady footsteps outside the door.

The door opened, and a young monk in cassock stepped into the room with a handsome expression. It was the same monk who had unwrapped the lottery for Xu Mo and fought briefly in front of the Leifeng Pagoda.

Jinshan Temple presides over Abbot Fahai.

Before Fa Hai could speak, Xu Mo pulled the cloth bag from his waist and put it on the tea table, and untied the knot, revealing the yellow, yellow and white gold and silver ingots, and the dazzling reflection brightened the whole room a bit.

"Master Xu, are you...?"

"Zen Master Fahai, I accidentally destroyed the Buddha statue in your temple last night. I am deeply sorry. I am here to make amends today. The gold and silver are all from my heart. I hope Zen Master will accept it and find the best craftsman to reshape the golden body for my Buddha... ..."

This is Xu Mo's biggest amulet for daring to go up the mountain to face Fahai. Even if you, Fahai, want to find fault, it's nothing more than talking about the destroyed Buddha statue. Now I will take the initiative to admit this matter first and take the initiative to compensate Jinshan Temple. Loss, with such a good attitude of pleading guilty, it's not easy for you, an eminent monk, to hold on to others' braids like a shrew in the market, right?

Fa Hai obviously didn't expect that Xu Mo would give him such a move first. All the speeches he had prepared before were blocked in an instant. He looked at Xu Mo with a strange expression, smiled for a moment, put his hands together and said: "Benefactor Xu is really serious!" So witty, the poor monk can say... The so-called knowing the mistakes can make things better, Xu Benefactor can take the initiative to admit his mistakes, and reshape the golden body for my Buddha, which is also a great merit. mentioned."

Xu Mo and Fa Hai sat down separately, and the little novice came in again to offer new tea to them, and took away Xu Mo's previous tea bowl.

Fa Hai took a sip of tea, and said calmly, "Master Xu, you don't come here just to pay for the Buddha statue, right?"

With Fahai's cunning and cunning, it is impossible not to know the reason for his visit, so Xu Mo didn't bother to go around in circles with him, and directly said straight to the point: "Zen Master Fahai, Ming people don't talk dark words, I am here this time for Bai Suzhen and Cen Biqing. "

"Oh? It turns out that Master Xu came here for these two monsters..." Fa Hai didn't show any surprise on his face. He had already expected Xu Mo's coming when he heard the little novice's report.

"Yes, Zen Master Fahai, Bai Suzhen devoted herself to the Buddha. During her stay in Qiantang, she practiced medicine for good and was well-known among the common people. Even though Cen Biqing was alive before she was enlightened, wild beasts devoured people." , but it is also the way of heaven, it cannot be regarded as evil, but shortly after the transformation, he was subdued by Bai Suzhen, and since then he has been devoted to goodness... I hope the Zen master can forgive the net and give the two green and white snakes a chance."

Xu Mo didn't expect his flimsy rhetoric to impress Fa Hai, he just wanted to test Fa Hai's attitude towards the green and white snakes, and where the bottom line of punishment was. [

Sure enough, as Xu Mo expected, Fa Hai resoundingly proclaimed the Buddha's name, and said solemnly: "Master Xu's words are wrong, let me ask you, you are walking on a mountain path, and you see rats infesting under a tree, what should you do?" how?"

"Look at it and continue on our way." Xu Mo was stunned for a moment.

"Then what if you sleep at home and rats come and go?"

"Catch and kill."

"That's it." Fa Hai sat up straight with his teacup in his hand, and said in a calm tone, "Since ancient times, people and monsters have had different paths, and the place where monsters should live is in the vast mountains. Walking, wouldn't the world be in chaos that day? No matter what the reason is, it is a crime for the monster race to stay in the world..."

Xu Mo roughly understood what Fa Hai meant. Apparently, there was an unspoken rule between human beings and monster races, that is, humans can't go up the mountain, and monster races can't go down the mountain.

He had also heard from Cen Biqing before that as long as the monster race did not go down the mountain, even if they devoured some mountain travelers in the mountains, those human practitioners would often turn a blind eye.

In the same way, if a monster race appears in the human world, even if it is killed by a practitioner, there will be very few monster races to come to seek justice.

There is an absolute difference between the monster race and human beings. No cultivator will patiently follow a monster for several years to judge the good and evil of a monster. The most simple and direct way is to expel all monsters that appear in the world or clear.

It's like human beings who stray into the territory of wild beasts will also be attacked. This is a matter of good and evil, and it's just a self-protection measure.

So from a certain point of view, Fa Hai's statement is completely tenable.

"What's more, that Bai Suzhen did not hesitate to attract the water from the East China Sea for her own selfishness, flooding the Jinshan Mountains, turning hundreds of miles around into a country of floods, and people living in poverty... The poor monk did not take her for the sake of her past merits in helping the world and saving people. Killing him on the spot is just taking care of him, making him devote himself to cultivating the Buddha, and atone for his sins, isn't it considered as the utmost benevolence and righteousness?"

Fa Hai took a sip of his tea and said calmly.

This dignified monk!If you hadn't insisted on killing Cen Biqing and setting a trap to force Bai Suzhen to rescue her, with Bai Suzhen's gentle and kind nature, how could you have done such a thing?

Although Xu Mo was slandering in his heart, he had to show a sincere and teachable attitude on his face. He knew that the old monk Fa Hai was small-minded, and he didn't want to be hated by Fa Hai because of such a trivial matter.

"Zen Master Fahai, isn't there room for flexibility in the matter of Bai Suzhen and Cen Biqing?"

Fa Hai uttered the Buddha's name, and said in a deep voice with angry eyes: "You have committed your own crimes, you can't live! Bai Suzhen and Cen Biqing have committed a lot of crimes, and they have to chant scriptures under the Leifeng Pagoda to make amends in this life. If they want to see the sun again, unless the Leifeng Pagoda collapses and the water in the West Lake dries up." !"

The Leifeng Pagoda fell!

The West Lake is dry!

These two classic lines from the original book finally reappeared in Fa Hai's mouth, and Xu Mo knew that the monk was determined to punish Bai Suzhen, and there was absolutely no room for discussion, so he stopped talking about it.

"Also, benefactor Xu, the poor monk would like to advise you..."

"Chan Master Fahai, please speak."[

"As one of the rare martial cultivators, Master Xu, it's not easy for you to cultivate to the present state at such a young age. You can be regarded as a rare genius once in a millennium, and you may even be among the immortals in the future. Momo To be deceived by goblins will ruin the practice of asceticism."

"Thank you Zen master for reminding me, I know now."

Xu Mo pretended to be open-minded and receptive, but he was noncommittal. After all, before Bai Suzhen and Cen Biqing were rescued, the most important thing was to protect himself, and he must not tear himself apart with Fa Hai because of a moment of anger at this time.

Speaking of cultivation, Xu Mo followed the topic and asked Fa Hai a few questions about the Seven Killing Sword Art he was practicing. He just wanted to find a starting point for the topic like chatting about the weather, but he didn't expect Fa Hai to talk about it. Although the monk's character is not strong, his experience and insights in practice are top-notch. Fa Hai explained many things that even Bai Suzhen failed to explain clearly, and even the seven and a half moves created by Bai Suzhen For the slight flaws in the sword technique, Fahai proposed remedial methods one by one.

Unknowingly, the two of them had talked from noon to dusk. Although there was still something to say, Xu Mo still remembered the purpose of coming this time, so he found a chance to change the topic, saying: "Zen Master Fahai, I am going to visit you this time. Come on, there is actually one more thing I want to ask for your help..."

Fa Hai put down the tea bowl, and said with a smile, "Benefactor Xu, you and I are destined, as long as it's not about the two evildoers, Qingbai, the rest is fine."

Apart from being somewhat paranoid and narrow-minded, from the perspective of ordinary people, this Fa Hai is actually quite a good monk.

Xu Mo took out a note from his bosom and put it on the table. It was exactly what he asked for at Jinshan Temple that day, and it was written with the words "seven bitter feelings, the fate of the world is fixed, the phoenix follows the dragon, and the solution to the previous life".

"Could it be that benefactor Xu still wants me to release this lottery?" Fa Hai looked at Xu Mo and asked.

"No, Zen Master Fahai, you misunderstood. I just want to ask for another lottery."

"Ask for a lottery? What do you want to ask this time, Master Xu?"

"Looking for someone."

Fa Hai looked at Xu Mo meaningfully, got up and said "Follow me", and walked out of the room with a flick of his sleeves.

Fa Hai did not take Xu Mo to the main hall where the two met, but took him to a deserted side hall. After retreating the monks in the hall, he handed him a slightly heavy bamboo stick.

What Xu Mo wants to ask is the whereabouts of Lin Yijing's last two avatars. Since the first time he asked for a lottery, he pointed out the clues of Lin Yijing and others' avatars. Of course, he will not let this cheating tool go.

After the rattling sound of the lottery, a bamboo stick jumped out of the stick and landed on the green brick floor with a pleasant crisp sound.
