lie
After Changxia woke up, many people came to see her. Actually, people had come to visit her from time to time before, but she was unconscious at that time and didn't know.
Several junior brothers and sisters came out of the mountain gate for the first time, which made Changxia feel that it was not in vain that he had raised them for a long time.
Li Bai was at the stage of growing taller. When I saw her again, she had already grown into a grown-up girl. She had grown taller and stood there, looking very graceful.
Changxia felt a little regretful that he missed his junior sister's growth.
But when Li Bai's snot and tears soaked Chang Xia's clothes, she felt that it would be better not to grow up like this.
The good news is that Li Bai finally got bolder after a few days and dared to bring some tasty food to Shen Siyan without her knowledge.
Lian Hua has always spoiled his children without limit. Although Chang Xia is an old lady over a thousand years old, Lian Hua still treats her as a child who needs care. He specially sets up a low table for her on the bed. The original intention was to make it convenient for her to eat, but in fact its biggest use was to play mahjong with Shen Siyan behind Lian Hua's back.
As for why he didn't dare to beat her in front of Lian Hua - before Senior Sister took over Ruomu Valley, Yun Ting was in charge of discipline, and he hated things like gambling in groups the most.
When Li Bai arranged the dishes made by Zhou Xiaosu on the low table one by one, Chang Xia sighed, thinking that this was a return to nature.
Li Bai looked at her hesitantly and said, "Don't worry, Senior Sister. I've made inquiries. The Zen Sect's Millennium Banquet is coming soon, and Senior Brother Shen has to accompany the Sect Master to represent the Northern Territory. He won't be able to come these days."
Changxia still has some impression of this incident.
Master Hui Da himself had no desires or demands, but the Zen philosophy was so brainwashing that countless fanatical believers wanted to donate their family fortunes to him. Zen Buddhism naturally could not accept such a thing. After many attempts to stop it failed, everyone compromised and came up with the Qianqiu Banquet.
At that time, all believers will bring out their best things to offer to the Buddha in their hearts.
Qianqiu is naturally the Qianqiu of Zen Master Hui Fanxing. He is three thousand years old this year. Zen Master Hui has Su Hui and has been famous in Cangxuan for over a hundred years. This is his third Qianqiu banquet.
Changxia had attended the last Qianqiu Banquet with Bie Jingchun, but he didn't offer any gifts. Instead, he took a bunch of good things home from the monk.
So she had a good impression of the banquet.
Chang Xia gnawed on Zhou Xiaosu's braised pig's trotters and asked Li Bai, "Didn't the Sect Leader ask you to go with us?"
Although we still don’t know what’s so special about the junior sister’s identity, but judging from the performance of Master Yai and the others, if she really goes there, I guess the monk would even be willing to give her the relics.
Li Bai said as a matter of course: "Who will bring food to Senior Sister if I go?"
She had a bitter face. Almost two years was enough for her to understand the temperaments of the senior brothers and sisters in Cangfeng Mountain. In short, they lived in seclusion and rarely went out. Not to mention the gate of Cangfeng Mountain, they were unlikely to even step out of their rooms.
If she left, her poor senior sister would have no one to care about her, and no one would even give her pig's trotters when she wanted to.
Changxia didn't have the ability to read minds, it was just that Li Bai's expression was too vivid, allowing her to know what her junior sister was thinking at a glance.
So she reached out and flicked Li Bai's head.
"Your senior sister isn't as miserable as you think."
Li Bai covered her head and looked at her in pain with her eyes wide open.
"To be honest, if you don't want to go with the master and the others, I can take you there." Chang Xia saw that she was eager to do something and asked directly.
Li Bai nodded hurriedly, then seemed to suddenly remember something and said hesitantly, "But my senior gave me a lot of homework..."
Chang Xia scoffed: "He himself skipped classes when he was a kid."
This was the truth. They were all raised by Zuo Qin and Bie Jingchun and had barely attended classes at Yunting Academy. However, the younger brothers and sisters at the back were forced by Chang Xia to complete the basic courses taught by the academy teacher.
She didn't want the glorious history of her and Xie Fengxue scoring 13 points in Lu Lake to be repeated.
Li Bai did not go to Yunting's school, but Xie Fengxue had other plans for Li Bai. He himself was a jack of all trades and could teach everything, so there was naturally no need for her to go.
Li Bai's eyebrows relaxed, and she began to grow bolder, and started to make other requests: "Can Brother Xiaosu come with us? I heard that many food cultivators will be presenting dishes at the Qianqiu Banquet, and he wants to go and see it."
Chang Xia revealed their little trick: "Old Zhou thinks his Kung Fu is not up to par, so he won't let him go up and embarrass himself."
Li Bai blinked and said cunningly, "If we don't tell anyone, no one will know that he is Master Zhou's apprentice."
Changxia felt that Li Bai must not have been to the Yunshang Pavilion much in the past two years, otherwise he would not be unaware of the purpose of those piles of files in the Shanhai Pavilion.
Each faction has its own intelligence system. Yunting Food Cultivator is already famous, and Lao Zhou is one of the highest level food cultivators in Yunting. He accepted a new disciple, and within a few days, all aspects of the news about the new disciple will be known to the entire food cultivation world.
It was like the first time Li Bai came down the mountain, their appearance had changed, but Xi Lizhu was still able to recognize her.
but……
It doesn't matter.
Not to mention that her illusion skills were good enough to conceal her identity. Even if she was recognized, with her current strength as a swordsman in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, even if she said she was Li Xiaosu, no one would dare to admit that it was Zhou Xiaosu.
So she pretended to hesitate, whetting Li Bai's appetite before nodding and saying yes in her expectant eyes.
Li Bai jumped up happily and gave Chang Xia a big hug before telling Zhou Xiaosu the good news.
Changxia sat on the bed alone and thought about it, and decided to send a message to Xie Fengxue to let her know.
No one knew what this person was busy with, and he didn't reply until dark.
In the evening, Lian Hua came to visit her. When taking her pulse, Chang Xia reminded her that she was going out again. Lian Hua frowned and thought for a long time, and finally pulled her new apprentice over and placed him in front of her.
"You can go, but take Ayang with you. I'll feel more at ease with her watching over you."
Changxia looked at the little girl in front of him who was about the same age as Li Bai with endless emotion.
How old is the little girl? Who is watching who?
"You've never liked taking medicine properly since you were little. I'll give all the subsequent medicines to Ayang, and she will supervise you taking them every day."
She is already so old, and her senior sister is still talking about taking medicine.
It seems that there are some disadvantages in the senior sister treating her like a child.
Chang Xia said with difficulty: "I think she is still young and should learn more from Senior Sister."
Lian Hua was silent for a moment, then sighed and said softly, "Xia Xia, I think with more children around, you'll think twice before doing anything dangerous."
Changxia had no way to refuse.
In the end, she took three half-grown children out at once. However, several days had passed, and until the day before she went out, Xie Fengxue's kite did not respond.
Changxia was on the back of Sanli Sanbei, and she closed the kite in a daze. She looked towards Cangfeng Mountain, feeling a sense of impending storm.
————
Among the three children, only Li Bai had been to the Southern Territory. Last time, she could only listen to her senior brothers and sisters talk about the customs and culture of the Southern Territory. This time, she was like a regular customer, able to explain everything clearly to Zhou Xiaosu and Ayang, which earned them exclamations.
Changxia leaned his head and looked at the three of them boredly.
Although the decision was made late, they acted quickly and were even ahead of the leader and his men.
There is still half a month before Li Qianqiu's banquet. Before that, she can take the children out for a walk.
The last time I went was to the Luhu part, and I didn’t even visit Libai in the Zen part.
The buildings in this southern half are also very interesting. The city is in a protective posture, with the Zen Xiaoling Mountain as the center. The closer to Xiaoling Mountain, the more cities there are and the denser the buildings. You can even see the city walls of other cities across the road.
As for the city in the center, they simply built a circle of city walls around Xiaoling Mountain.
The areas further from Xiaoling Mountain are relatively sparsely populated, and it is not until Luhu Lake that things start to get busy again.
Changxia once lamented that Zen Buddhism was like a cult, with all its followers being extremely fanatical, but Xie Fengxue said that Zen Buddhism was shameless and great.
To some extent, they fill the gaps in the way of heaven.
There are always things in the universe that are beyond human knowledge and control. This is when people begin to question the heavens.
In the past, Cang Xuan really had the Way of Heaven. Although the Way of Heaven before Ji Zhao entered the Dao had no emotions, it had rules. The rules would respond, reward those who opened the way, and punish those who did evil.
This can be said to be the law of nature, and retribution is inevitable.
But not now.
No one knows what happened during these four thousand years, but Cang Xuan's "sky" suddenly disappeared completely one day.
From that day on, God never responded to the world again.
Zen Buddhism is most in line with the laws of nature. They were the first to discover it and the first to stand up.
There are naturally wise people who know that the way of heaven is imprisoned, and they will forge ahead bravely and strive for self-improvement. They will only find ways to rescue it and will not complain about themselves. But what about the many people without wisdom?
They are not that tenacious. They believe in the Way of Heaven fanatically. How can they accept the disappearance of the Way of Heaven?
From that time on, Zen Buddhism began to revise its doctrines and collect the beliefs of those "without wisdom" in a way that was almost deceptive.
But it's not easy to justify yourself.
For example, if believers ask why Heaven does not save people from suffering, Zen Buddhism will say that life is born from suffering and they have to pay for their sins in past lives. If Heaven does not save people in this life, it is to repay them in the next life.
This is a very shameless statement. After all, the entrance of Cang Xuan's Six Paths of Reincarnation is in the fairyland. After the ladder to heaven is cut off, no one will know about the afterlife, and there is no way to verify its truth or falsehood.
There is no way to refute it.
They keep telling lies like this, becoming more and more extreme, their ideas becoming more and more brainwashed, their followers becoming more and more fanatical, and their actions becoming more and more "cult-like", all just to conceal the fact that the Way of Heaven no longer exists.
Then the people of Cang Xuan came to this realization: Zen Buddhism is still as unshakable as a mountain, so how could the sky fall?
As the sect that was closest to the Way of Heaven before, this was even against Zen's own teachings and contrary to its own "Way", but they did it anyway.
That's why Xie Fengxue gave this evaluation of Hui Fanxing, who was in charge of this matter.
He is Cang Xuan's biggest liar, but also Cang Xuan's most perfect man.
He deceives those whom no one can deceive, and saves those whom no one can save.
Changxia had no way of commenting on Hui Fanxing's behavior, because she felt that when Tiandao woke up, He would comment on it himself.
In other words, only God can judge Hui Fanxing, no one else is worthy.
