Leaves have grown again on the bare branches of the Bodhi tree, and the gray tones have quickly faded, replaced by vigorous, fresh and vibrant green, as if an invisible hand is casting a magical spell to bring spring back to the earth.
The newly grown leaves are bright green and translucent, and they are dyed with dazzling light under the sunlight.
This miraculous scene made Master Yuanjue stand there in a daze. He dared not blink, fearing that it was an illusion.
He didn't come to his senses until the people around him kept exclaiming in surprise.
"Master Yuanjue is here!"
"Master Yuanjue."
He calmed his excited heartbeat and walked over. People saluted him along the way.
At this moment, he didn't bother to return the gift. All he had in his eyes was the Bodhi tree that had recovered its vitality.
"Master." Huizhen walked over.
"Huizhen, what's going on?"
Just as Huizhen was about to explain, Xue Huan walked out from the tree trunk.
Master Yuanjue, who had calmed down a little, was once again stunned.
A moment later, Xue Huan was personally taken to Master Yuanjue's meditation room, with Huizhen accompanying him.
As for the others, they were still gathered under the Bodhi tree and refused to leave.
After entering the Zen room, Yuanjue immediately bowed deeply to Xue Huan. Xue Huan subconsciously wanted to help him up, but thinking of her current image as a master, she could only maintain a calm expression and extended her hand to help him up. "Master, please stand up."
"Master Zhao, please take a seat." Master Yuanjue poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xue Huan with both hands.
After expressing his gratitude once more, he said, "Please wait a moment, Master. I will go and fetch the two treasures that were promised to me."
Xue Huan nodded.
This time, in order to save the Bodhi tree, she made a huge sacrifice. She thought that the spiritual spring in the well in the space could be used for a long time, but most of it was consumed this time!
In the early stage, she watered the Bodhi tree with a lot of spiritual spring water, but it was still not enough. She thought that she had already invested so much, so she could only continue watering. As a result, the water level of the spiritual spring in the well kept dropping. When she reacted, only a small half was left.
She was so heartbroken at that time!
At this moment, a figure appeared from the Bodhi tree. It was actually the little monk Bodhi she had met before!
Bodhi...
A light bulb went off in Xue Huan's head. Could it be that this little monk was actually the spirit of the Bodhi tree?
"Thank you, sister. I'll come back to see you after I'm done with the tribulation."
Grandma Little Bodhi's voice rang out from the bottom of her heart, and then she disappeared in front of her.
At this time, Xue Huan also understood that the reason why the Bodhi tree withered overnight was because it was undergoing a tribulation and was about to fail, otherwise it would not have shown signs of defeat on the outside.
Now, the large amount of spiritual spring water she irrigated has injected vitality into him, and he should be able to survive this disaster smoothly.
Just as she was thinking about it, Master Yuanjue came back and placed a very simple green cloth bag in front of her.
Xue Huan took out the things inside, a rosewood pass with cloud patterns engraved on the four corners, "Lingyun Temple" written on the front and "Scripture Repository" written on the back.
The sign feels a little heavy in the hand, and exudes a refreshing sandalwood scent.
The other one is the legendary seven-treasure bracelet.
It was even more beautiful and gentle than she had imagined, and was imbued with a rich Buddha light. As soon as she touched it, she felt that the aura around her became more peaceful.
I don't know if it's just her psychological effect or if it's really like that.
These two treasures are actually packed in such a simple cloth bag. Can we say that people in the Buddhist sect are really fresh, unworldly and unpretentious?
Xue Huan put the things away.
"Master Zhao, the vegetarian food in our temple is still edible. I wonder if you would be willing to stay and taste it?"
Master Yuanjue asked for more food.
The vegetarian food at Lingyun Temple was famous far and wide, and Xue Huan really wanted to try it, and she also wanted to take a look at the Sutra Library.
"OK."
Vegetarian chicken, vegetarian duck, tofu, vegetables, kidney bean soup...
Although the table was full of vegetarian dishes and the cooking oil was also vegetarian oil, the taste was really good. Xue Huan ate two bowls of rice.
After dinner, Yuanjue personally took Xue Huan to a spacious and quiet guesthouse. "This is the residence I had specially prepared for you. You can come here anytime. Also, if you have anything to ask, just tell Huizhen directly."
Yuanjue is truly grateful to Xue Huan for saving the Bodhi tree.
The founder of Lingyun Temple left a Buddhist verse before he passed away: If the Bodhi tree thrives, Lingyun Temple thrives; if the Bodhi tree withers, Lingyun Temple withers.
In other words, the Bodhi tree is related to the rise and fall of Lingyun Temple. Once the Bodhi tree withers, Lingyun Temple will also decline.
However, more than three hundred years have passed, and the Bodhi tree has remained fine. The monks in the temple have gradually stopped taking this Buddhist verse seriously.
Until that morning, the once lush Bodhi tree withered overnight.
The monks in the temple finally understood that what the master said might be coming true!
What made them despair was that they had tried all the methods they could think of, and even invited a lot of foreign help, but it was of no use.
Just when they were about to give up, Master Zhao appeared.
With one move, the dead Bodhi tree came back to life!
Although two treasures have been paid, one of which is a Buddhist treasure, but the treasure is dead, the Bodhi tree is alive, and the Bodhi tree is related to the rise and fall of Lingyun Temple, so the two treasures cannot be compared with the Bodhi tree at all.
Everyone in Lingyun Temple is still full of gratitude towards Xue Huan.
After Yuanjue left, Xue Huan took out the seven-treasure bracelet.
The seven-treasure bracelet contains abundant purple energy!
Before, she was afraid that Master Yuanjue would notice it, so she didn’t dare let the Five Elements Beads absorb it on the spot. Now she was the only one in the room, so of course she had to absorb the purple energy as quickly as possible.
After all, what falls into your pocket is yours.
The Five Elements Beads absorbed the energy for nearly ten minutes before stopping. This shows how rich the purple energy contained in the Seven Treasures Bracelet was. It was probably worn by an emperor in the past.
Only objects that have been in direct contact with the emperor for a long time can be contaminated with so much purple energy.
If it was the emperor himself, wouldn’t the purple energy contained in it be even greater?
Thinking of this, Xue Huan had the urge to sneak into the palace and catch the emperor and give him a good sucking.
Shake your head and get rid of this unrealistic idea.
Lingyun Temple is built on the hillside. The mountain is very cool, and the courtyard that Yuanjue arranged for Xue Huan is even more uniquely cool.
Xue Huan took a comfortable nap, then headed to the Sutra Library, with Huizhen leading the way.
She originally thought that the Sutra Repository must be heavily guarded, but when she arrived, she found that there were not many people here. There was only an old monk with a long white beard, who was napping on the stone steps under the corridor with a broom in his arms.
When Xue Huan saw him, she was shocked. Could this be the legendary Sweeping Monk?
