Celestial Immortal

 “Sky clairvoyance! What a Buddhist supernatural power!”

Chu Chen was slightly startled. He did not use his escape technique to cover up with all his strength, but with his magical power, even if he covered it at will, ordinary people would not be able to see through his figure.

At the moment, the other party was able to see through him and Lao Liu from dozens of miles away.

 The vast world is full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons.

I never expected that there would be such an expert in the ordinary mountains.

Chu Chen was a little surprised, but he didn't have any stage fright. He called out to Lao Liu and flew into the clouds and mist toward the place where the voice was transmitted deep in the mountains.

 Flying along, looking around.

This place is indeed not a beautiful and beautiful place, but among the steep mountains and floating mist on Xiaoling Mountain, a melodious and simple sound of ringing bells and murmuring chanting of sutras gave the surrounding world a faint Zen feeling. Mind, the restless mind becomes peaceful and pure.

A deity makes a mountain, not its altitude. Water does not have to be deep.

 This sentence perfectly confirms the scene in front of me.

 “Brother Chu, this is it.”

The two of them flew through the clouds and mist, heading towards the ancient temple halfway up the mountain. As soon as they landed, two monks and four young novices came to greet them.

Chu Chen swept his consciousness and quickly caught a glimpse of the monks and novices in front of him.

The monks have a sixth-grade Taoist practice, and the novice monks have a eighth-grade or ninth-grade cultivation. Each of them possesses the pure power of compassionate Buddhism. At first glance, it is obvious that the teacher has followed the righteous path of Buddhism and the teacher has shown the sect.

 “I’ve seen the elders, I’ve seen the donor!”

 It’s very interesting to say.

Monks and novices call Chu Chen and Lao Liuda differently.

 One is called "donor" and the other is called "elder".

Needless to say, the donor called him Lao Liu, but calling Chu Chen "elder" is quite interesting.

If Chu Chen shows up as an immortal in the Immortal Courtyard, others will call him "elder", referring to his identity as a high-ranking elder in the Immortal Courtyard of Elders.

Chu Chen became interested:

 “Do you know my origin?”

"I don't know, I don't know, I'm the one who gives orders."

The monks were also a little curious, and they respectfully called a Taoist wearing a Taoist robe "elder", which was also quite strange in their hearts.

Chu Chen nodded, without asking any questions, and took Lao Liu straight into the temple.

The temple is not big, but it has quite a few palaces, such as the Jialan Temple, the Heavenly King's Hall, the Mahavira Hall, etc. It is a very standard Buddhist temple, unremarkable, but the incense is quite strong, and the temple's Zen fragrance curls up, which makes the little devil Zai was ready to move and wanted to get out right away and enjoy himself.

However, since he was out and the kid was talking nonsense before, Chu Chen was afraid of being embarrassed and didn't let the kid out.

Not long after, under the leadership of the monk and the novice monk, the two people quickly arrived at a Buddhist temple in the temple.

In the temple, a thin old monk wearing a red cassock sat down on his shoulders, meditating with his eyes closed, and making a wish seal with his right hand.

This seal has the meaning of giving, making wishes come true, granting protection and universal salvation.

 Symbolizes fearlessness and compassion in giving to all living beings.

In front of him, there is a coffee table, with three sets of tea trays and tea sets on it. A pot of tea is slowly simmered on a slow fire. A wisp of elegant tea fragrance overflows, mixed with a light Zen fragrance, making the room pure and refined.

Chu Chen was involved in tea ceremony and incense ceremony. His nose moved slightly as he tasted the tea, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face;

 “Good tea, good fragrance, the abbot is so elegant!”

“It’s good that the elders and donors don’t dislike it.”

Hearing the compliments, the old monk who was meditating with his eyes closed slowly opened his eyes. A gentle and friendly smile appeared on his weather-beaten face at first. After taking a moment to look at Chu Chen and Lao Liu, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

 He was not surprised at all when he saw Lao Liu, he had already expected it.

However, when he saw the Taoist in green wearing Taoist robes and carrying an immortal sword, he was slightly surprised.

 “The elder is actually a member of the Taoist sect.”

Chu Chen’s expression moved slightly.

Just now he heard that the abbot and monks called him "elder" and was very surprised. He thought that the other party had seen the origin of his identity as a high-ranking elder of the Immortal Court.

However, now he finally understood that the other party had misunderstood him and mistook him for a Buddhist monk.

 Generally speaking, in Buddhism, eminent monks are respected as “elders”.

Chu Chen was slightly startled, and became more and more amazed by the monk's [clairvoyance] power in front of him, and bowed:

"The abbot is good at supernatural powers. He is a poor Taoist with a surname of Chu and a Taoist name of Chen. Although he comes from an authentic Taoist sect, he has a clear lineage and dabbles in Buddhism, which makes the abbot laugh."

“The name of Lao Na is always empty. Elder Chu and Don Liu, please sit down and drink tea!”

The old monk Changkong greeted the two of them to sit down. He stretched out his hand and the teapot flew up on its own to pour tea. Two lines came out of one hole, and a light mist evaporated from the shining arc, and the fragrance of tea overflowed.

"please!"

Chu Chen and Lao Liu smiled, took the tea, and put it in front of the case.

The old monk smiled when he saw that the two of them were not drinking. He was not surprised at all and said with a smile:

“Elder Chu, you are not just dabbling in Buddhism. Lao Na observes that you have Buddha light appearing faintly all over your body, that you have Buddha nature in your body, that you were born as a son of the Buddha, and that you have a deep affinity with my Buddhist sect. Elder you should join my Buddhist sect.”

Chu Chen smiled.

Speaking of which, when he was in Guangping County, Qingzhou, many of his bosses from Buddhist backgrounds said that he was related to Buddhism. At that time, he didn't pay much attention and only thought that his bosses were talking politely.

However, to this day, he accidentally gathered the True Spirit of the Sea of ​​Nature [the Compassionate and Wisdom Aspect of the Great Sun Tathagata] and acquired the [Sacred Palm of the Great Sun Tathagata], saying that he has a predestined relationship with the Buddha, which seems to be true.

“The Buddha is in the heart. Whether all sentient beings in the world can become Buddhas or not has nothing to do with whether they can enter a Samana or not, and whether they can become a monk or not. The abbot is determined.”

 After saying this, Chu Chen himself was slightly startled.

Today, he came to ask for the sacred herb. As a person asking for help, his words seemed to be preaching, and he was a bit arrogant.

 It's just that he just opened his mouth and blurted out this sentence without thinking about it at all.

 After saying this, he regretted it.

 “Buddha is in the heart.”

On the other side, the old monk who was sitting slumped down looked slightly startled and fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he sighed slightly and said:

“Elder Chu is indeed profound in Buddha nature, and I have received the teaching.”

 That’s not the case!

My senior brother was personally taught by the Buddha!

 In the Dharma basket, the little devil muttered to himself. He took advantage of the opportunity to show his holiness in front of others, but he couldn't speak, but he made it anxious.

Chu Chen was very embarrassed and coughed:

“Don’t be offended by what Pindao said casually, Abbot Changkong.”

“Elder Chu’s casual remark more clearly shows the true meaning of Buddhism. I have been meditating in the mountains for hundreds of years, but it is not as good as the elder’s true words. I am ashamed and ashamed.”

 Old monk Changkong shook his head, quite sincerely, and asked for advice:

"I am not just talking empty words. Elder Chu possesses the nature of Buddha. He is actually a disciple of my ascetic Buddha. I have a chance to meet you today. I hope that Elder Chu will not hesitate to teach me!"

Chu Chen could see that the old monk in front of him was not being polite or sarcastic, but rather sincerely asking him, a young Taoist, for Buddhist teachings.

If you are an ordinary person, there are very few people who have this kind of magnanimity.

However, in the world of immortality, it is very common for experts to humbly ask for advice. Not to mention asking for advice from fellow practitioners, even "asking without shame" also happens from time to time. This is a common state for high-level immortals.

 Only with an open mind can one show his true qualities.

"Abbot Changkong is too polite, but I don't dare to accept the teaching. You and I will discuss Buddhism, and I also plan to ask you for Buddhist teachings."

 “Great good!”

 About one stick of incense.

 Lao Liu yawned, bored.

Although he worshiped the Dharma lineage of Emperor Guandi, he only learned the "way of loyalty" and fought with gods and generals with supernatural powers. He did not inherit the Dharma of Emperor Guandi. Listening to the Dharma and Buddhist scriptures was like "playing the harp to an ox" and really uninteresting.

However, the old monk Changkong and Chu Chen in the Buddha's house were still unfinished, and they all looked like they had learned a lesson, and they had learned a lot.

 “Brother Chu, how was the harvest?”

“Great harvest! This old monk Changkong has profound Buddhist teachings. I have benefited a lot from discussing Taoism with him.”

After listening to Chu Chen’s spiritual message, Lao Liu was bored, but now his face showed a look of satisfaction:

“Brother Chu, I just said that this is a wise and eminent monk. Now, you must believe me!”

"Not always!"

Chu Chen felt strange in his heart after listening to Lao Liu's spiritual message.

As soon as he entered the Buddhist temple, he met the old monk Changkong. From all aspects, he felt that this old monk was a reclusive monk with profound Buddhist teachings.

However, when the two of them were discussing Buddhism, he, who had [Fire Eyes and Thunder Eyes], was able to see through the illusion. He actually caught a glimpse of the extremely terrifying and **** blood in this old monk who was profound in Buddhism and possessed the light of Buddha. Under the shroud of Buddha's light, there is a faint but strong karma hidden.

He is extremely familiar with this kind of violence.

Only by committing atrocious evils will one be riddled with blood and violence, and his karma will be blazing.

 Good guy!

This old monster has hidden himself too deeply.

Chu Chen was shocked and secretly cried out for joy.

If it hadn't been for the chance that a few days ago, he had condensed the true spirit of the sea [Fire Sea Golden Lotus] [Thunder Wood Fengchun], and then developed the [Fire Thunder Eyes] magical power, which can detect the illusions in the world, he would have been deceived by the old man in front of him. .

Who would have thought that this mountain monk who shrouds the Buddha's light, protects the people, and has profound Buddhist teachings would actually be a heretic with evil spirits and karma.

Be careful, he may be in trouble.

 “Brother Chu, what you said is”

 Lao Liu was secretly surprised and was about to ask for clarification.

 On the other side, the old monk Chang Kong nodded his head with satisfaction.

 “Amitabha!”

After pronouncing the Buddha's name, Abbot Changkong Xu noticed the sound transmission from Chu Chen and Lao Liu's spiritual consciousness. He thought of something, smiled and said:

“Elder Chu, I heard from the sixth benefactor that you seem to be collecting [Leopard Eye Southern Star Grass]. I wonder if this is the case?”

 “Exactly!”

Chu Chen admitted openly: "I heard from Lao Liu that there is a sacred herb growing in the traditional Chinese medicine field of the abbot temple. I am interested in buying the treasure. I wonder if the abbot can bear the pain and part with it?"

 “Hahaha~ Elder Chu is too polite.”

 Old monk Changkong waved his hands and said grandly: "Forget it about buying treasures. If you want the sacred herbs, just take them."

Chu Chen was a little surprised.

[Leopard Eye Southern Star Grass] is a rare sacred grass in the world. According to Lao Liu's description, although the sacred grass in the temple does not have a ten thousand-year spirituality, it only has a thousand-year spirituality. However, as long as it is transplanted into the top spiritual field, with the quality of the sacred grass, it will continue to grow. Because its spirituality is not a problem for ten thousand years, it is a rare and precious treasure that is difficult to buy even with millions of dollars.

Meeting by chance, giving things away for free when we first meet, this is no longer a question of whether to be generous or not.

Good guy, this old guy really has evil intentions.

Chu Chen secretly made a decision, but on the surface, he had a smile on his face, showing an unexpected and pleasant look:

"Abbott, I don't deserve to be rewarded for my merits. How dare I accept such a valuable treasure?"

 “No problem!”

Abbot Changkong waved his hand and said very freely and freely: "As a monk, why should you worry about some common things? Elder Chu, you are in charge."

 “This poor man accepted it shamelessly.”

 As expected of being an "old monster", Ji Feng is back again.

Chu Chen smiled and did not refuse at the moment. He handed over his hand in thanks and accepted it, but he felt a strong sense of vigilance in his heart.

There is no free lunch.

When Pingshui met, sending the grass directly, there was no other answer except for the incompatibility.

 As soon as he thought about it, he immediately made a decision in his mind.

As he spoke, the three of them stood up from the futon.

"please!"

Old monk Changkong stretched out his hand, shrank down to an inch, came to Chu Chen and Lao Liu, walked towards the door, and led the way to the yam field behind the temple.

The moment the old monk Changkong passed Chu Chen, his back appeared in front of Chu Chen, and the sleeves of his cassock touched the corners of Chu Chen's clothes.

Chu Chen looked stern.

 As the saying goes, strike first to gain the upper hand.

At present, it is the perfect time for him to take action.

Although Chu Chen's name is not "Lao Liu", he is a senior "Lao Liu" with profound evasion skills and is very skilled in sneak attacks.

 “Whoops!”

In an instant, Chu Chen flicked the sleeves of his Taoist robe, a golden sword light flashed, and he used [Blue Dragon in Sleeve] with one hand.

This sword is the original sword energy stimulated by [Qinglong Sword Pill]. Although this sword energy is not as sharp as [Qinglong Sword], it is faster and quieter than using the fairy sword itself, making it most suitable for sneak attacks.

 Once it is achieved, its power is extremely terrifying.

It is not impossible for a monster with great supernatural powers to die suddenly on the spot after being struck by a sword.

Of course, facing the profound Taoist monk Changkong, he had no hope that the attack would be effective.

 As long as the sneak attack can hurt the opponent, he is extremely satisfied.

However, what is surprising is that this sword attack was actually successful.

 “Pfft!”

The old monk Changkong was not prepared at all and ate the sword forcefully. The sharp sword energy easily broke through the cassock and precious clothes, penetrated his back, penetrated his body, and blood overflowed.

“Elder Chu, what are you doing?”

Old monk Changkong suddenly turned around and looked at Chu Chen in astonishment.

The most terrifying thing about [Blue Dragon Spirit Sword] is not the damage to the body, but the damage to the soul of the soul. Just by looking at him, his face turned pale and looked sluggish.

 “Brother Chu!”

Lao Liu exclaimed, but Chu Chen had mentioned it before, so he didn't say anything more and his face was full of doubts.

“Haha~ Abbot Changkong, you hide it well. You clearly have murderous karma and are ruthless, but you pretend to be a Buddhist monk and discuss Buddhism with you. I can’t see any flaws.”

Chu Chen sneered and said disdainfully:

"It's a pity that I can't deceive the sharp eyes of poor Taoists. The evil heretics have ulterior motives. It's really a good skill!"

Originally, the old monk Changkong was still a little confused. When he heard Chu Chen's words, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning and lost his mind.

 After a moment, he sighed:

"Elder Chu has a wise eye. I know that I have committed a serious sin and will kill you as I please. Please do as you please!"

 After saying that, Elder Changkong closed his eyes and clasped his hands together, as if he was ready to take action.
