◎The purest and whitest color in the world.◎
The carriage moved forward for a while and finally arrived at the mountain gate. Before we got closer, we saw that the girl in the red skirt had dismounted from the horse and was standing by the mountain path talking to a young monk.
The little monk was no more than a teenager, wearing a gray monk's robe. He looked a little reserved as he faced the girl with bright eyes and a charming look.
"Female donor, if you don't want to climb the mountain, you can go over there and find some sedan chairs. There are often dignitaries who go to the temple to burn incense, and most of them go in sedan chairs."
Lin Qingyan and others arrived and heard their conversation. They realized that An Jiu didn't want to walk up the mountain and was asking the little monk if he had a way to get around.
Wuyin Temple is very famous, and therefore very popular within a radius of 100 miles. Many people come to the temple to pray to the gods and worship Buddha every day, and the sedan chair industry has also flourished.
Soon several porters came upon hearing the news. The girl in the red skirt sat steadily on the sedan chair, without even looking at the people behind her, and went up the mountain on her own.
Lin Qingyan and He Ziqing naturally did not need the sedan chair. They walked directly up the mountain, and soon they surpassed the others with a leap of their feet.
The only ones left were An Jiu sitting on the sedan chair, Pei Ji sitting on another sedan chair further back, and Ah Qi following Pei Ji.
The three of them climbed up the mountain in silence. Ah Qi was caught between the low pressure of the two and didn't dare to say a word.
The mountain where Wuyin Temple is located is called Shuangsong Mountain. It is said that there are two thousand-year-old pine trees on the top of the mountain, and making a wish to the pine trees is very effective.
The temple was built on the top of a mountain. The porters carried the load for half the morning before they slowly arrived in front of Wuyin Temple.
It was noon when they arrived at the mountain temple. He Ziqing and Lin Qingyan were already waiting at the temple gate. Standing with them was a young monk in a white robe.
An Jiu saw the monk at a glance.
The monk had a very handsome face, and his body was straight and upright, like a pine or cypress, and his snow-white robes had not a single wrinkle on them.
Ordinary monks often have compassionate expressions and peaceful eyes, but this monk's face is extremely cold. There is no expression on his handsome face. His expression is as light as the breeze in the mountain mist, which passes by without leaving a trace.
This person has a fresh yet cold temperament, and he happens to be wearing a white cassock, which makes him look even more otherworldly and not like an ordinary person.
An Jiu got off the sedan chair and threw a silver ingot to the porter, "Don't give me the extra change, it's a reward for you."
Several porters wiped their sweat, smiled so hard that their teeth were showing, and left with many thanks.
An Jiu walked up to Lin Qingyan, stared at the young monk, and asked curiously, "Who is this?"
Lin Qingyan said: "This is Feichen, the disciple of Master Zhenyi of Wuyin Temple. He heard that we were coming, so he came to greet us in person."
Then he introduced An Jiu to Fei Chen.
Fei Chen nodded slightly to An Jiu, his eyes calm and peaceful, like a snow lotus on a mountain, detached from the world: "An Tan Yue."
An Jiu's peach blossom eyes curved, and her voice was as sweet as water: "Hello, Master Feichen."
Fei Chen frowned slightly, took a step back, and said, "Fei Chen is not yet a disciple, so I can't be a master. Just call me Fei Chen."
"Okay, I'll call you Feichen, can you call me Anjiu?" The girl pinched the handkerchief and pursed her lips, with a smile in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and she kept leaning towards him.
Seeing this scene, Lin Qingyan and He Ziqing were stunned for a moment.
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that An Jiu is interested in Monk Feichen.
Especially since she showed it so obviously, now she has come close to Feichen and talked to him with a smile. Even though Feichen spoke coldly, the girl did not show disappointment on her face, but a look of getting more courageous with each setback.
The two looked at each other, and He Ziqing said: "An Jiu, what is this..."
Lin Qingyan said in a low voice with a sad face: "She seems to like Feichen very much."
He Ziqing said bluntly: "Fei Chen is handsome and is indeed popular with girls." After a pause, he suddenly changed the subject and asked, "What about you?"
Lin Qingyan was stunned for a moment, and her face suddenly blushed. "I, I don't have any other thoughts about him."
Lin Qingyan was not used to talking about love in public, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "Aren't you going to look for someone? Since we've already informed Wuyin Temple, let's go now."
He Ziqing was stunned: "Don't I need to say goodbye to them?"
Lin Qingyan shook her head vigorously, "No, An Jiu and Pei Ji won't mind."
In fact, it was Lin Qingyan's sixth sense as a woman that told her that there was a Shura field ahead.
The journey was already extremely painful. Although An Jiu only had a conflict with Pei Ji, it was not easy for them to be caught in the middle, and they even spoke less on weekdays.
Now that a bigger storm is about to come, Lin Qingyan dare not stay any longer and it is better to leave early.
He Ziqing always listened to her, so he didn't hesitate at the moment. The two of them quietly disappeared while Pei Ji was still here and Fei Chen was entangled by An Jiu.
Pei Ji got off the sedan chair at the last stone step, got back on the wheelchair, and came to the temple gate. What he saw was the girl in the red skirt raising her little face and talking with a smile on her face with the handsome monk in the white robe.
The shadows of the trees were mottled, and the sunlight shone through the gaps onto the two of them, casting tiny spots of light.
The girl smiled brightly, her beautiful peach blossom eyes filled with pure joy.
Hearing the sound of the wheelchair, the girl turned her head slightly, and her eyes suddenly became cold, as if she was looking at a stranger.
Pei Ji's eyes dimmed, but he kept his expression down and a faint smile appeared on his face out of habit.
Instead, the monk in white robe took the initiative to step forward: "Divine Doctor Pei."
The two of them greeted each other, and after they finished talking, they realized that Lin Qingyan and He Ziqing were gone.
Pei Ji smiled helplessly and said, "They have other important matters to attend to. Maybe they left first. There is no need to look for them."
People in the martial arts world are often not particular about small matters. Fei Chen's expression remained unchanged and he nodded calmly: "Okay."
The four of them entered the temple.
Because it was noon, several people went to the dining hall of Wuyin Temple to have a vegetarian meal. Pei Ji was invited as a guest, and was treated very well. Fei Chen accompanied him throughout the whole process.
As they walked together, Feichen told them that since Master Zhenyi had just come out of retreat and had some trivial matters to deal with, he would not have time to meet them until a few days later.
Feichen arranged a house for them to stay in the guest house behind the temple, with three people living in one yard.
Pei Ji naturally had no objection, so the few of them stayed in the temple.
As soon as he settled down, An Jiu couldn't stay any longer and immediately went out to wander around the temple.
Wuyin Temple has a long history and is passed down for hundreds of years. The temple is fully equipped with pavilions and towers. As it is an important place of Buddhism, the air is filled with the rich aroma of incense, and from time to time, one can hear the low sound of chanting coming from the surrounding houses.
An Jiu ran into many monks along the way. The lowest-ranking monks wore gray robes, the higher-ranking ones wore brown robes, and the higher-ranking ones wore yellow robes. Monks in yellow robes were rare, and they were all older masters. In the entire temple, only Fei Chen wore a white robe.
Feichen's status in Wuyin Temple is obviously unusual.
An Jiu, who had read the original novel, naturally knew the reason. Feichen was the only disciple of Master Zhenyi and the next abbot of Wuyin Temple. It was said that on the day he was born, dead flowers and trees sprouted new buds, which was extremely rare. Master Zhenyi happened to pass by and sensed that the baby had a connection with Buddha, so he went to convert him personally.
Feichen originally came from a wealthy family, so his family was reluctant to send him to become a monk. However, over the next few years, the wealthy family became increasingly impoverished, and the family began to believe that Feichen was not an ordinary person and that they would be punished by heaven if they forced him to stay, so they personally sent Feichen to Wuyin Temple on Shuangsong Mountain.
From then on, Wuyin Temple welcomed the Buddhist disciple Feichen.
After becoming a monk, Feichen showed his excellent talent in Buddhism. The Buddhist scriptures that were difficult for ordinary people to understand were as simple as words to him. He could see through the connotation of any Buddhist knowledge at a glance.
Because he sees too clearly and too detachedly, he develops a detached character that does not take anything to heart.
It fits his Buddhist name, Feichen.
He is not a mortal, but an immortal in heaven.
Fei Chen does not appear much in the original novel, just a brief glimpse, but he is loved by many readers.
Therefore, when Fei Chen died, readers' disgust and resentment towards the villain Pei Ji reached its peak.
Yes, Fei Chen will die at the hands of Pei Ji.
The reason why Master Zhenyi had been in seclusion for many years but came out at this time was because he had a premonition that he would pass away soon and planned to pass the position of abbot to his disciple Feichen.
There is a secret treasure in Wuyin Temple, the Bodhi seed, which can contain internal energy. Before the death of each generation of the abbot of Wuyin Temple, he will transfer his internal energy to the Bodhi seed for his successor to use.
Although Pei Ji had practiced magical skills, he suffered from insufficient internal strength. It happened that he came to Wuyin Temple and learned about the existence of Bodhi seeds, so he set his sights on obtaining the Bodhi seeds.
That's what villains do. If they set their eyes on a treasure, they'll just snatch it away.
However, although he stole the Bodhi seeds, his whereabouts were discovered by Fei Chen when he killed Master Zhenyi to seize the treasure. This was also the first time that Pei Ji's true identity was discovered.
After Master Zhenyi died, Feichen went down the mountain to avenge his master's death.
But Feichen discovered sadly that no one believed him.
He told the hero and heroine that Pei Ji had stolen the bodhi seeds, but they didn't believe it. Even other people in the temple didn't believe that the compassionate doctor Pei would harm people, not to mention that he was disabled in both legs and couldn't practice martial arts.
Faced with such a helpless situation, Fei Chen finally chose to fall into the evil path and cooperate with the Demon Cult, just to use the power of the Demon Cult to kill Pei Ji.
Fei Chen is the purest and whitest color in the world. He was protected too well and had never seen darkness. Once he experienced the darkest time in the world, he was also contaminated by that darkness and could never go back to the light he once had.
In the end, on the day when all the sects in the martial arts world surrounded the Demon Sect, Fei Chen was also killed by Pei Ji, who had transformed into the Immortal Wuming.
It was also on the day when the Demon Cult was destroyed that the Thousand Killing Pavilion appeared with thundering force, wiped out the entire martial arts world and reaped the benefits.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it. Who wouldn't praise it as a wonderful scene?
When An Jiu read the article, he put himself in the shoes of the villain Pei Ji, and felt that this villain was extremely clever, and his tactics of killing with a borrowed knife, acting after careful planning, and keeping a low profile were extremely skillful.
Now thinking back, she only had one thing left in her mind: "He is indeed a sinister villain!"
While she was thinking, she saw a handsome monk in a white robe kneeling in front of a solemn Buddha statue in a hall not far away, pinching the Buddhist beads with his plain fingers and chanting Buddhist words in Sanskrit silently.
Hearing footsteps, he slowly opened his eyes, and looked at her quietly with his cold pupils: "An Tanyue, what's the matter?"
An Jiu smiled and approached him enthusiastically, "Master Feichen, there is a Buddhist principle that I don't quite understand. Can you help me solve it?"
After his grandfather got old, he began to be superstitious about some mysterious things. An Jiu never believed in gods or Buddhas, but he also catered to their interests and studied Buddhism and Taoism for a while.
She has a good learning ability, so when she asks a question, it comes easily and it is not aimless.
When Fei Chen heard her question, his expression eased slightly. He had always been devout towards Buddhist principles, and even though he did not feel any faith in this female donor, he still answered her question seriously.
The author has something to say:
Pei Pei is really a villain who has done all kinds of bad things! So his ending will be miserable (early warning)
