Chapter 260: Master Chunyi is good, but not good to me
"Today I asked him for clothes to make diapers, and he made some conditions." Gu Nan had no conscious intention of speaking ill of others behind their backs, and spoke confidently, "Has he always been so cold, heartless, and petty?"
De Zhao wanted to refute, but his reason told him that this was really something that Junyi could do. In the end, he just smiled awkwardly, lowered his head and continued to sew diapers.
It was Dezhao's first time sewing a diaper. Even though there was a wet diaper next to him to learn and imitate, he still sewed for a while and then stopped for a while.
When the sewing was almost finished, Dezhao stammered, "Actually, Master Chunyi is quite good."
Gu Nan glanced at him, "You say he's good because he saved you."
De Zhao smiled sheepishly and shook his head. "Apart from this reason, Master Chunyi is also quite good."
"What's good about it?" Gu Nan crossed his arms across his chest, looking as if he was listening attentively.
"Master Chunyi often preaches to us and helps us solve any problems we have. Although he is serious and has strict rules, he has a high level of cultivation. With him around, even the master can feel at ease." He became proud as he spoke.
Afraid that Gu Nan didn't understand the value of Chunyi's teachings, he mumbled a long explanation, the gist of which was that a monk like Chunyi, who was well versed in Buddhism and had great wisdom, could often illuminate everything with just one sentence, help them develop the ability to do good deeds, and even achieve enlightenment, thus accomplishing all merits.
"Although this time the disciples of the two temples are nominally discussing Buddhism, in reality it is a conversation and comparison of Dharma between Master Chunyi and the old abbot. We are very lucky to be able to listen in on it." Dezhao was complacent and felt very fortunate to have gotten such a good opportunity.
Gu Nan: "Since he is so kind, why don't you call him Senior Brother? Wouldn't it be strange to call him Master?"
De Zhao thought for a moment and explained to Gu Nan seriously, "Master Chunyi has a predestined relationship with the immortals, but we don't. However, once we are enlightened and enter the Dao, our words will attract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is what we often say, 'Words lead to actions.' Calling Senior Brother will aggravate the karmic bond, which is not conducive to cultivation."
Gu Nan: “…” Bullshit, I’ve never heard of any immortal who couldn’t even call his fellow disciples his brothers before ascending to heaven.
De Zhao's tone and attitude clearly showed that he was a little fanboy looking at his idol. His admiration for Chun Yi made him naturally ignore Chun Yi's unkindness and he kept trying to find excuses for him.
Dezhao tried to speak well of Chunyi, "Donor Gu Nan, there must be some misunderstanding between you and Master Chunyi. Although Master Chunyi is a bit strict, he has a good heart."
"I don't think there's any misunderstanding." Gu Nan pursed his lips. "He might be good to you guys, but he's not good to me."
Trash Junyi, everyone flatters him, but whenever she goes against him, he plays tricks on her.
Narrow-minded, stupid, and unlikely to achieve great things.
De Zhao wanted to say more, but Gu Nan interrupted him, "Let's not talk about him anymore. I get annoyed when I talk about him. Let me try the remaining point. See if I did it right."
Gu Nan took the needle and thread from his hand and began to mend the clothes by imitating his technique.
De Zhao supported himself on the table with both hands and leaned over to watch her sew. After watching for a while, he laughed, "Donor, you have really skillful hands. The stitches are so fine and tight, just like Master Chunyi's."
Gu Nan lowered his head and let out a breath through his nose, "If you want to praise me, then praise me, don't mention Chunyi."
Dezhao scratched his head, smiled innocently, and leaned a little closer, asking curiously, "Donor, why did you follow Master Chunyi to Fajue Temple?"
Everyone knows that Gu Nan and Jiang Wanying are evil spirits, but they don't know why Gu Nan was able to enter Fajue Temple and is inseparable from Chunyi. They dare not ask Huiwu, but only secretly guess that she and Chunyi have other connections.
"I was cheated." Gu Nan ruthlessly complained about Chunyi's ruthlessness, which frightened Dezhao.
Suddenly, there were two sounds of turning over on the bed, followed by two screams, one after the other.
"Really?"
"Master Chunyi actually treated you like this?"
Gu Nan turned his head and saw two figures, one kneeling and the other lying on the bed. Their two smooth and shiny boiled egg heads looked extremely moist under the dim candlelight, and the fireworks flickering in their eyes were brighter than the candlelight.
De Zhao was startled, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
The two young monks panicked for a moment, "You guys were too loud and woke us up. We didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation."
After saying that, the two climbed off the bed, walked to the table in their slippers and sat down, asking curiously, "Master Gu Nan, did Master Chunyi really treat you like that?"
Facing two pairs of inquiring eyes, Gu Nan had no intention of saving face for Chunyi. He swung his toes leisurely and said, "Of course, why would I lie to you?"
The two looked at each other in awkward silence.
Dezhao held his head in his hands, greatly shocked.
Gu Nan wanted to laugh, but he held it back, his face full of worry. "Can you please help me speak well of him? I don't want to stay in the temple anymore. If I continue like this, I will go crazy sooner or later."

The next day, Junyi noticed that several of his fellow apprentices looked at him strangely, seemed hesitant to speak, and pushed each other, as if they were embarrassed about something that was difficult to say.
Chunyi didn't want to care about it. He had to discuss the Dharma with the old abbot this morning and didn't have time to deal with the trivial matters that were bothering the young monks.
But when he thought about how De Zhao and the others were usually close to Gu Nan, if he didn't care, the old ghost might take advantage of the opportunity and cause trouble, he thought about it and decided to take action.
"You have something to say to me?"
The two young monks were startled when they heard Chunyi's voice, and pushed Dezhao out at the same time.
Dezhao looked up at Chunyi's cold and majestic face, his calves trembling and his voice weak, "It's just that benefactor Gu Nan has something she wants us to tell Master Chunyi. She wants to leave Fajue Temple..."
Before he could finish his words, Junyi's face darkened.
Most of the young novices have not yet entered the Buddhist path, their minds are not stable, their Zen hearts are weak, and they are most likely to be confused by ghosts and demons.
Someone who usually never approaches him suddenly opens up to him for an old ghost. Everyone knows there's something fishy going on.
Chunyi took a few quick steps away from the crowd, made a hand gesture, and Gu Nan, who was far away in the guest room, instantly appeared in front of him.
He formed his five fingers into claws, pinching Gu Nan's neck like hooks, and shouted angrily, "You've crossed the line."
No matter how many times he came, Gu Nan hated being ordered around like this, being manipulated like a toy. Hearing this, he sneered, "Why are you being so arrogant? I didn't break the agreement."
After saying that, she hooked her arms around his neck and was about to kiss him.
"Gu Nan!" Chunyi quickly pinched her and pushed her away, his chest heaving and burning with anger.
Gu Nan turned into ghost energy and wrapped around his hand, the strands of energy wrapped around his fingertips, penetrated into his cuffs, and wrapped around his muscular arms.
The cold ghost energy was like a slippery silver snake, winding and crawling gracefully.
Chun angrily threw his hands away, but he only managed to break free for a moment. The next second, the ghost energy came back like a thorn in his flesh.
He couldn't hit or hurt her, and he had no other way to deal with her except to hurt himself.
Seeing the evil spirit reaching his chest and about to pull at his belt, Chun Yi was furious and gnashed his teeth, "You want to leave the temple? Fine, I'll grant you your wish."
