Except for meal times, Yinli stayed very well-behaved by Tan Yuan's side. However, as time went by, Yinli felt that she was a pet, not a human being.
That night, Yinli slept next to Tanyuan as usual. The moonlight shone in from the windowsill, and a faint light was visible in the room.
"Host, this is a good opportunity, sleep with him!" Xiao Dipeng encouraged as usual, "As long as the boss breaks the rules, he won't be so Buddhist all the time. If you don't dare, I have medicine here."
【You have been blocked by the host. 】
"The host is a coward." Since when, the little bugger that always flatters others has learned to silently complain about its host behind his back, and it finds it very satisfying.
Yinli blocked the little fox and transformed himself into a human form, causing Tan Yuan, who was originally holding the little fox, to end up holding Yinli in human form.
Seeing that he was not awake, Yin Li found a comfortable position in his arms with a smile on her face and continued to sleep.
The sky gradually brightened.
Tan Yuan stood up and sat down in the corner of the bed. He quickly clasped his hands together and silently recited the Diamond Sutra. Yin Li slowly opened his eyes and said "Ah" in a very exaggerated manner.
"Legacy, I, we..."
"I'm sorry." Tan Yuan apologized hurriedly, "I, I am willing to take responsibility for what happened today."
Yin Li's eyes lit up and he asked happily, "Are you really willing to take responsibility?"
"If you are willing, I will try my best to take responsibility, but I..." Tan Yuan's mind was in a mess. He had never thought about getting married and having children, but now he had ruined the girl's reputation. Although this was an accident and the other party was also a monster, since it had been done, he would admit it.
"I do, let's get married right away!"
Tan Yuan looked at her in confusion: "Ah? Are you in such a hurry?"
"Of course, we both slept together. What if I get pregnant?"
Tan Yuan, who had never received any physiological knowledge and knew nothing about such things, believed it. He said nervously, "I have to go discuss this with the abbot."
Yinli didn't expect that Tan Yuan actually believed that they did it, so she went along with it.
"Okay, I'll wait for you!"
When Xiaodi jumped out, he saw his host transformed into a human form and lying on the boss's bed with his legs crossed, looking in a very good mood.
"Host, where is the boss? Why are you alone?"
Yin Li said proudly, "He went to the abbot to discuss our marriage."
"Marriage? Host, how did you do that? Did you really force yourself on me?"
"How is that possible? I have to protect my reputation." Yin Li raised his chin slightly and said with a smile, "I just let the inheritance think that we did it. Hehe, he is a monk and he definitely wouldn't understand. But after I said that, he actually believed it."
Xiaodi jumped and clapped his hands to celebrate: "The host is really amazing~"
"Well, keep a low profile."
The other side.
Tan Yuan came to the abbot with a deep hatred and told him the whole story. Of course, he did not say that Yin Li was a monster. After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and felt very guilty: "Abbot, I need to be responsible for her, and I may not be able to..."
"This is a good thing." The abbot turned the Buddhist beads, his cloudy eyes seemed somewhat unfathomable.
"Abbot, what do you mean by that?"
"When you were a child, I wrote to you that you would commit a great sin of killing in the future. In order to prevent you from going down this path, I taught you to recite sutras and chant Buddha's name since you were a child. I hope that even if I can't stop you, I can make you kind-hearted."
"this……"
The abbot interrupted him and continued, "But your fate is not unchangeable. The only variable is your wife. But I can't predict your wife, and I'm not even sure whether she will appear. But now that she has appeared, you should return to secular life and marry her."
During this time, Tan Yuan experienced two shattered and reshaped views. One was when the fox demon that broke into his house suddenly turned into a human, and the other was what the abbot said now.
Will it cause great sin of killing?
Tan Yuan didn't believe it.
Although he grew up in a Buddhist community and was considered a highly respected master, and he said Buddhist words every day, no one knew that Tan Yuan did not actually believe in Buddhism, and that this kind of fate was even more illusory.
If a person's fate is predetermined, then what is the need for humans to have any thoughts? Wouldn't it be enough for God to just let these humans follow their predetermined fate?
Even Buddhism has similar Zen sayings: Destiny is created by oneself, appearance is created by the mind, all things in the world are transformations, if the mind does not move, all things will not move, if the mind does not change, all things will not change.
As long as he keeps his original intention and doesn't do those things, would anyone hold a knife and force him to commit murder?
"You are not destined to be with Buddhism after all." The abbot stood up, walked to the cabinet and took out a locked small box. After unlocking it, he took out a letter and handed it to Tan Yuan: "Read this letter after you leave. Don't come back after you leave."
Tan Yuan looked at him in confusion: "Abbot, why is this?"
"You will understand after reading the letter. Let's go." The abbot turned his back to him.
Tan Yuan looked at the letter in his hand, then knelt down on both knees and kowtowed three times to the abbot.
The footsteps behind him faded away. The abbot turned around, looked at the resolute figure, and sighed: "Amitabha."
…
Tan Yuan walked all the way to the back mountain and saw that there was no one around. He took out the letter that the abbot had just given him from his arms. The envelope was a little yellowed, and it must be quite old. He looked at the envelope for a while and then opened it.
There were not many words in the letter, just a brief explanation of his identity and why he grew up in Qinghua Temple.
"The eldest prince Zhou Jingshi? His mother is a fox demon? This is absolutely nonsense!"
Although Tan Yuan said this, he actually believed it halfway in his heart. If it was before Yin Li appeared, he might not have believed it, but there was a fox demon by his side, so the story in the letter might be true. Besides, the abbot had no reason to lie to him.
"Legacy, you're back?"
A familiar voice came from the front. Tan Yuan looked up and realized that he had returned to his thatched cottage without noticing. The little girl ran towards him happily: "How is it? What did the abbot say? Did he agree?"
"I agree." Tan Yuan nodded.
Yin Li immediately grabbed his hand and said, "That's great. When will you return to secular life? Is there any procedure required for returning to secular life?"
"No need." Tan Yuan remembered what the abbot said, pursed his lips and said, "I don't have much money. If you follow me, you may suffer. Besides, in my heart, Buddha may be first, and you are second..."
Yin Li took out a few banknotes from his pocket with a heroic look: "It's okay, I have money. As for the Buddha, I will squeeze him out in the future."
The little girl beside him hugged his arm, her eyebrows were curved and her voice was soft, but her appearance was quite seductive. Innocence and charm were blended together so harmoniously.
Tan Yuan was a little uncomfortable with this, but he didn't push the girl away. After all, she would be his wife in the future...
