Chapter 210: The Cold Buddhist Girl and the Sinister Young City Lord 5
Shen Suyuan asked for Cha Jiu, which was unexpected for everyone.
However, when their eyes fell on Cha Jiu's beautiful and extraordinary face, they understood instantly.
Who wouldn't want to have such a stunning beauty?
What can a nun do in such a chaotic world? There are many powerful people who disregard worldly ethics and plunder by force.
Amid the discussions, Cha Jiu appeared exceptionally calm and composed.
She asked: "Why did Donor Shen ask me to do this?"
The words "want me" were spoken softly and lightly, like a feather brushing against Shen Suyuan's ear, making his heart flutter slightly.
He couldn't help but take two steps closer to Cha Jiu and said, "I have a nunnery in my home in Qingzhou. The tiles are made of glazed tiles and the hall is built of pear wood. There is a golden Buddha statue enshrined in it and pearls are inlaid on the wall to make it shine. It is very luxurious and beautiful, but it only lacks a master with high moral character."
There was a hint of seduction in his tone.
"So, I would like to invite Master Yu Jing to come and live with me to practice Buddhism, so that he can teach me the sutras and purify my mind every day."
Even if people have not seen it with their own eyes, they can imagine the beauty of the Shen Family Temple from Shen Suyuan's description.
Moreover, living in the Shen family to practice means being protected, not having to worry about war and bandits every day, and having someone to take care of food, clothing, housing and transportation...
How tempting
But Chajiu's focus is not on these external things.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her glass-like eyes looked at Shen Suyuan quietly: "You mean, let me live in the Shen family, and preach the sutra only for you in this life"
Shen Suyuan could tell she seemed reluctant, so he took a step back and said, "If you want, you can take a few hours out every month to preach to the people of Qingzhou."
This was his biggest concession.
Shen Suyuan did not want to expose his "antidote" too much to irrelevant people to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Upon hearing this, Cha Jiu shook his head and said, "There are many people near the Lotus Temple. They are not protected and are in even greater distress and confusion than the people in Qingzhou and Hengzhou. They need salvation even more."
Shen Suyuan was a little unhappy.
But he couldn't explain why he was unhappy.
Cha Jiu is a nun at Lianhua Temple. She chose him over all the other people. Isn't that normal?
"You are rejecting me." Shen Suyuan's tone was dangerous, as if he was about to draw his sword and kill the person who angered him in the next second.
Everyone was so frightened that they held their breath, and the hall was dead silent.
Cha Jiu was not afraid, and met his frightening gaze directly, saying: "I entered the Buddhist monastery with this body, practicing the Dharma of compassion and saving the suffering sentient beings. It is really difficult for me to live in a corner of a gorgeous and empty temple and ignore the people who are suffering in the sea of suffering."
The system asked anxiously in my mind: "Shen Suyuan's favorability towards you is now 20%, why don't you go with him to Qingzhou and take advantage of the victory?"
Cha Jiumo said: "If I go back with him so easily now, then in his eyes, I will always be just an antidote."
"I want him to have a sleepless night after having an Anmian, and then go back to Qingzhou and have sleepless nights, so that he will want me even more."
The system is worried: "What if you refuse him and he doesn't agree to send troops to help Lianhua Temple?"
Cha Jiu was determined: "He won't."
Sure enough, although Shen Suyuan looked unhappy, he still made concessions: "You save all sentient beings, but I am also one of them. If I need you, I will occasionally ask you to go to Qingzhou to give lectures. That should be ok, right?"
Cha Jiu nodded: "Of course you can."
Shen Suyuan was filled with anger, and when he got a reluctant answer, he turned around and left in frustration.
Shen Wu followed behind him, very puzzled: "If the master wanted, why didn't he just tie him up and take him back to Qingzhou?"
Shen Suyuan sneered: "Am I such a person?"
Shen Wu: "Hmm..."
Aren't you
Shen Suyuan walked a few steps out of the hall and realized that he had not asked Cha Jiu to write another word on his palm, so he turned back.
At this moment, a little nun asked Cha Jiu with lingering fear: "Yu Jing, are you not afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?" Cha Jiu's voice was clear and pleasant, very outstanding.
The nun said, "I'm afraid that the young city lord will kill someone. He was so ferocious and evil just now. He is extremely scary. I heard that if he is not happy, he will behead someone."
Shen Suyuan stopped and sneered silently.
Cha Jiu said slowly: "What you hear and see may not be the truth. Mr. Shen's heart is like glass, he is jealous of evil, but no one has ever died under his sword. He will not kill me, nor will he disregard the lives of hundreds of people in Lotus Temple."
Just then a gentle breeze blew by.
Shen Suyuan's irritability and anger disappeared by more than half.
He didn't go in, turned around and left.
Shen Wu followed behind him, very confused: "What's wrong with the master? It seems that something is wrong with him since he came to the Lotus Temple."
Not killing when it's time to kill.
Still standing here eavesdropping on people's conversation.
One moment he is angry, the next moment he acts as if nothing has happened.
How strange.
Shen Qi looked at Cha Jiu in the hall meaningfully, and patted Shen Wu on the shoulder: "Let's go."
…
The moon is like a silver crescent, and the night dew is heavy.
There was a small lamp on in the silent and empty Dharma Hall.
Cha Jiu sat on a cushion, copying scriptures under the dim light.
The night breeze was slightly chilly, and her hands were a little cold and stiff. She would blow on them from time to time to warm them up.
The system yawned and said, "Why are you still copying scriptures so late?"
Cha Jiu said calmly: "Wait for someone."
Sure enough, not long after, Shen Suyuan, wearing a cloak, arrived without an invitation.
He can't sleep.
Even if Chen Yi was dealt with, those wronged souls would leave, but in this chaotic world there were wandering souls everywhere, and they kept chatting about family matters at the door of his room, making a lot of noise.
So he put on his clothes and went out for a walk, but he saw that the lights in the Dharma Hall were on, and it happened to be Cha Jiu who was there.
Shen Suyuan sat down next to Cha Jiu, and the sounds of wandering souls in his ears seemed to have faded a lot.
"Why are you copying scriptures so late at night?" Shen Suyuan asked casually.
He just wanted to stay with Cha Jiu and have some peace and quiet.
"Hurry up." Cha Jiu did not explain much, but asked: "Why doesn't Mr. Shen sleep?"
Shen Suyuan snorted and laughed: "Master Yujing, aren't you asking questions knowingly?"
Cha Jiu paused for a moment, as if realizing something.
She placed her snow-white fingertips between her teeth and was about to bite down -
Shen Suyuan had come here originally just to get the bloody words, but now seeing Cha Jiu about to bite his finger without hesitation, for some reason, he felt a pang in his heart.
"No need." He stopped her and took the slender, white finger between her teeth.
The finger felt a little cold.
Shen Suyuan seemingly casually threw his cloak onto Cha Jiu's shoulders, then lay down, with one hand under his head and the other hand pinching Cha Jiu's fingertips.
He closed his eyes. "That's enough."
Touching can also block ghosts, no need to bite your fingers.
Apart from the cloak, he was wearing only thin clothes underneath.
Cha Jiu looked at his hair being blown by the draft, his skin being an unhealthy pale color, and his lips being a light purple. He knew that lying here was not comfortable for him, except that his ears were quieter.
Shen Suyuan, who had his eyes closed, suddenly said impatiently: "Stop staring at me."
Cha Jiu turned around obediently.
Without that burning gaze, Shen Suyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the tips of his ears turned red.
But before long, he felt warm.
He opened his eyes and the cloak was covering him again.
Cha Jiu had her back to him, copying scriptures with one hand and letting him pinch her fingertips with the other hand quietly.
The thin back figure looks cold and stubborn.
Now it was Shen Suyuan's turn to stare at her back.
Thinking of what Cha Jiu said in the temple during the day, Shen Suyuan couldn't help but ask: "Master Yu Jing, who is more important, all living beings or one person?"
