Ten states

()Compared to the entire Treasure Hunting League's vigilante everywhere, sending people to investigate everywhere, etc., Xiaoxia and Mingyue, the two instigators who caused this storm, patted their buttocks and went back to rest and sleep.

To be precise, Xiaoxia took Mingyue, who had been relentlessly trying to kill the villain here, and asked Shifang to catch the escaped villain, to Bai Jinfeng's hut, and teased her with Bai Jinfeng again. After half a conversation, Mingyue nestled in the haystack in the corner of the hut, closed her eyes, and fell asleep after a while.

Seeing the baby-like expression on that beautiful and bright face, Xiao Xia sighed, knowing that Mingyue might not wake up from her sleep in a short time.Although the fight with the person in the sedan chair and the head of the family was short, it was no less dangerous than any previous battle. At least Mingyue had never been hurt by a group of masters including the monk Mie Nu in the black wood forest of Qingzhou alone. He didn't get the slightest injury, this time only a few deep bloodstains were cut on his hands by the Xuanjing Tiansi, and he also forcibly endured a third-grade Xuanshui Freezing Qi Talisman.

Of course, Xiao Xia himself was also very tired. If he hadn’t recovered some strength from the Buddha’s light from ten directions, the fatigue and nausea after being controlled by the ghost spell would have made him unable to come back by himself. The nervousness of life has already made him mentally exhausted, but he can't just fall asleep like this regardless. Taking this opportunity, he happened to have something to ask someone.

And if these words are not asked clearly, he may not be able to sleep.

Still on the tallest tree in the forest, the figure of the monk from the ten directions sat cross-legged as before.It's like a tall Buddha statue.During these days, he has always sat still no matter the wind, sun or rain, and the younger generation of the Pure Land Temple has the deepest cultivation and the best supernatural powers.It is enough to make ordinary Jianghu visitors feel awe and awe.It's just that if what the night watch disciples saw and heard spread tonight, maybe ordinary people will look at this little monk differently.After all, being held in the hand of a woman and being scolded but only obediently admitting her mistake, there is no such thing as an eminent monk, and this woman is still a girl who looks like a fairy, which is more likely to arouse some inexplicable associations among young disciples.

Of course Xiao Xia would not have these associations.Although he is young, he has already passed the stage of cranky thinking. He also has associations, but only those that are very real.Very deep, potentially fatal stuff.

Walking under this big tree, looking up at the figure sitting upright at a height of more than ten feet, Xiaoxia scratched her head, and when she was thinking about how to climb up, Shifang who was sitting upright opened her eyes , bowed his head and smiled at him from afar.Said: "Does Master Xia have something to say to the poor monk? In that case, please ask Master Xia to come up and talk about it."

As soon as the words fell, Shi Fang stretched out his hand and raised it, a huge palm made of hazy golden light rose from Xiao Xia's feet, leading him towards the top of the tree.

Xiao Xia wasn't too surprised, Buddhist magic is good at turning emptiness into reality with the power of wishes.Compared with the Daoist sect's comprehension of the vitality of the heaven and the earth and the use of the power of the heaven and the earth, they take two completely different paths. The supernatural powers of the Pure Land Temple pay special attention to momentum, and these places seem to be indeed extraordinary.

On the top of the big tree, the little god monk Shifang sat on a branch not much thicker than chopsticks, smiling and watching Xiaoxia flying up with the golden hand.Xiao Xia took a look.With his own lightness skills, he really couldn't find a place to sit or stand on the top of the tree, so he simply rode on a thicker fork below.

Wait until Xiaoxia sits down.Only then did Shi Fang ask: "A few days ago, Fourth Young Master Tang also came here to ask the poor monk why he didn't intervene in the matter of seizing the Suzaku spirit fire. I don't know if Xia Shi is mainly here to ask the poor monk. , Is it also related to this treasure hunt?"

Xiao Xia smiled: "Fourth Brother Tang has a broad mind, so what he is asking is naturally a major matter of morality in the world. I know how important it is, so I dare not ask about these matters. I just have a few small things I want to ask the master this time. "

"Shifang, a poor monk, is not a great master." Shifang shook his head and let out a long sigh. "I see that Miss Mingyue has always had a good impression of Xia's benefactor, and she also thought that Xia's benefactor is a free-spirited and sincere person. How could she know that she cares about such vain and vulgar etiquette like those ordinary people in the world."

Xiao Xia was not in a hurry, she also sighed and shook her head, and said lightly: "The teacher of one word is even a teacher, and the virtue of dispelling confusion should be called a master. What's more, the Zen master once had a case saying that the flag moves the wind Everything is really touching. Others call you a master, a god monk, but they don’t really call you, but they call you the one in their own heart, and you care about it, which is the real thing. What is the reason for the master not knowing himself to examine himself, but repeatedly evading this demonic obstacle on others?"

Shi Fang was stunned for a moment, then the smile on his face disappeared, he stood up abruptly, put his palms together on the top of the tree, bowed to Xiao Xia, and said, "Amitabha, so kind. Goodness is goodness. What Benefactor Xia said pointed out the poor monk Only those who are confused and obstructed in their hearts can truly be regarded as teachers of poor monks."

"Be polite, why should the monk be so polite?"

"It's not about the donor, it's about the understanding and gratitude in the poor monk's heart. You don't have to be polite."

Xiao Xia smiled, and beating these witty Xuanxu is his forte. From a certain point of view, talking to this little divine monk is much easier and more interesting than Shi Taoist's old world.He thought for a while and said, "Actually, I just came here to ask Master, how does Master see Miss Mingyue?"

If you ask other people, or other people ask Xiao Xia, then this question may be much more interesting.But it only fell on this ten-party divine monk of the Pure Land Temple, and there was an indescribably dignified taste.In fact, this question is what Xiaoxia wanted to ask from the first time he saw Mingyue appearing with Shifang, but he never had a good chance. can't do it.

But the answer of the little monk in front of him was indeed very interesting. He almost said without thinking: "Ms. Mingyue looks like a fairy, and she is cute in ice and snow. When the poor monk saw it, he had a strange feeling. It seemed that the Buddha Ming There is a karma between Miss Mingyue and the poor monk. Therefore, the poor monk will definitely protect Miss Mingyue and prevent her from any danger in this turbulent and mysterious world."

"" Xiao Xia thought for a while, and decided to ask more directly: "Then what does the master think of Miss Mingyue's Buddhist magic?"

"Although there is still a lot of jerky in the use of it. It is far from the perfect harmony of mind and unity of Buddha and self that my Zen spells should have, but to be able to achieve this level of cultivation at such an age, Miss Mingyue's talent is also great. It’s rare in a hundred years.”

Xiao Xia simply asked directly: "The master can see Miss Mingyue's teacher's lineage? But is it related to your Pure Land Temple?"

Shifang smiled, still didn't even think about it, and answered directly as if it was a matter of course: "Ms. Mingyue's cultivation is undoubtedly from my Zen school, but where did she come from, and how can I tell? Nowadays, Zen schools are the most popular in the world. I am in the Pure Land Temple. But since Baimaxi, the World Honored One has spread to the world for hundreds of years, and there are so many branches? If you meet someone who practices Buddhism and Zen and falls on my Pure Land Temple, it would be a big mistake."

Xiao Xia narrowed her eyes.Shi Fang's words didn't say anything directly, but they seemed to reveal some inexplicable meaning, which was really interesting.

"But having said that, Master Xia and Miss Mingyue have known each other for a long time. Don't you know her teacher's background?" Shifang asked back at this time.Those big round eyes are clear and bright, like an innocent child who doesn't know the world.

"Actually, Miss Mingyue and I just met by chance in a forest in Qingzhou not long ago, and we came to Qingzhou together after that. It can't be considered that we have known each other for a long time." Xiao Xia thought about her words and vocabulary before answering slowly, and then thought about it.He also said: "Actually, both my Taoist school and the Buddhist school have many masters who have reclusively practiced in seclusion. I think that maybe Miss Mingyue is the descendant of a reclusive monk?"

"Well, Benefactor Xia's guess coincides with that of the poor monk." Shi Fang nodded and smiled happily. "What the world-honored one taught is to cultivate a peaceful heart. What kind of sect is this? The Taoist temples are all convenient methods established for the convenience of saving sentient beings. Those eminent monks who have left the world and practiced in seclusion are not necessarily better than the poor monks. It is very reasonable for a master to practice world-class methods like this, and it is extremely reasonable to have a successor as icy and snow-like as Mingyue, who has a deep cultivation base."

Xiao Xia nodded and said with a look of sudden realization: "So that's the case. What the master said is really reasonable, and it seems that it must be the case."

Shi Fang nodded again and again, smiling more and more happily: "That must be the case."

Xiao Xia also smiled happily.Monk Miingu could see that Mingyue was carrying Monk Chixia's relic, and the people in the sedan chair could also see that this little divine monk Shifang was unreasonable and couldn't see it, so he was always a little uneasy.Now that this matter was finally brought up, although the little monk was vague in his words and pretended to be stupid, he still had the intention of defending Mingyue.If it was an ordinary rivers and lakes person like Shi Daoren, he would still be scruples about whether there would be any traps, but he was at ease with this little god monk from ten directions.After all, it is very rare for a monk like Monk Mie Nu to become obsessed with the Three Jewels of 'Precepts, Ding and Wisdom', the first lecture on Buddhist penance, and even Monk Mie Nu, who once said he would go He would cut his own tongue to confess the crime of lying, but this little monk didn't look like someone willing to cut his own tongue.

The matter was clear, and Xiao Xia finally let go of a stone in her heart.But after putting down the first piece, there is still a second piece.And this second piece is heavier and more deadly, and it's even harder to say.

"What does the master think of the mysterious person in the sedan chair we met just now?" Xiao Xia pretended to say casually.

Shi Fang's face immediately turned serious, and he said in a deep voice: "I can't imagine that a hundred years after the fall of the Demon Sect, there are still people in the world who practice the most insidious and mysterious Heavenly Demon Heart Curse. The Devil's Heart Curse is the most powerful of the Heavenly Demon's five strategies that day. A kind of twisted mind, using one's own spirituality and soul as a cauldron to smelt the Yin soul, and as the cultivation progresses, the five senses and five desires of the cultivator will all be swallowed and assimilated by the ghost curse, tasting delicious food like chewing wax, drinking fine wine like Drinking rotten water, what you hear and see is different from others, no matter how pleasant the sound or the spectacular scenery, you will no longer feel the slightest feeling. The resentment left in the Yin refining soul is getting deeper and deeper, so only those who have nowhere to go, and have endless resentment and persistence in their hearts will practice this kind of kung fu, and after practicing, their character will only become more vicious and distorted, only for their own benefit. Don't use any means, benefactor Xia must be extremely careful if he meets this person in the future. And the poor monk also promised Miss Mingyue, after this matter is over, he will definitely capture and remove this kind of devil."

The answer to these words was so clear that Xiao Xia felt a little surprised. He frowned and sighed: "It would be great if the master could capture this person at that time."

Shifang also let out a long sigh, looking straight at Xiao Xia, but with a wry smile on his face: "Benefactor Xia doesn't need to test. The poor monk admitted that the poor monk could have captured that person at that time."

Xiao Xia was stunned. Although he had noticed it long ago and guessed all kinds of possibilities, he didn't expect it to be true, and Shi Fang also admitted it so straightforwardly.

"It's true, it's reasonable, the poor monk really should capture that person, and even the poor monk wants to capture that person very much. The man's cultivation level is even higher than the poor monk, and the poor monk is just relying on his master Only the Supreme Treasure can win against him, if we meet that person next time, it will definitely be a hard battle with unpredictable outcome, but at this moment, the poor monk really can't keep him."

"Could it be because of the conspiracy to steal the treasure behind it?" Xiao Xia asked shyly.This is the only possibility.

"Yes." Shi Fang nodded, and the smiling face that was originally full of joy had completely sunk down. "Don't ask anymore. The poor monk can only say that this matter involves a lot, and it's just a small step in a bigger turmoil. Not to mention the poor monk, even the poor monk's teacher in the Pure Land Temple Being in it, you can only act according to the trend, and dare not make any rash moves. The poor monk didn't know about this before, only felt that there was a big weirdness in it, so he came here against his teacher's order to have a look. Recently Jian Wu occasionally had some experience, and the man also told the poor monk a few key words, so the poor monk understood."

Xiaoxia felt like she was going to be stupid when she heard it. Although she knew that there was a conspiracy behind this treasure hunt, but she could actually make the world's first-class sects like the Pure Land Temple tremble, so how huge would this be? A storm?

"As for the details of the cause of this turmoil, the poor monk doesn't want to talk about it. Donor Xia, you'd better not know."

Xiao Xia smiled wryly and shook her head: "Thank you, master. Xia also knows how many weights she has. In this kind of turmoil, even duckweed can't be counted. Knowing too much is just a way to seek death."

"However, if it's time for Master Xia to know about the matter, he will naturally know about it." Shi Fang suddenly smiled, then stood up and bowed, and said, "Okay. The poor monk who can say it has also said it, and the one who can't say it." It is absolutely impossible to say, and the poor monk still has some problems to participate in, and strive to do his best in this calamity, so that Master Xia will not be allowed to stay here."

After finishing speaking, with a move of Shifang's hand, a big golden hand emerged out of thin air, sending Xiao Xia under the tree.

Looking up at the top of the tree, Shifang had already sat down cross-legged, and remained motionless like a Buddha statue in these days, but facing the light emitted by the huge fireball constantly circling in the distance, it seemed It has a faintly weird taste.
