Chapter 9 It's time, it's fate, it's luck, it's beyond my control

wolf.

A real wolf eating.

The master had no baggage at all. When the scallion beef noodles were served, he picked up the big bowl and started eating. The sounds of eating noodles and drinking soup alternated together, which also whetted people's appetite.

As he finished the last mouthful of soup, Master Guiwu patted his stomach contentedly and said, "I'm sorry to have made fun of you, fellow Taoist. I haven't had such delicious noodles for a long time. The only regret is that the beef stew is not strong enough."

"……?"

Lin Fan looked at the master in front of him, and felt that his perception was slightly broken. "Master, if it's not enough, you can have another bowl."

"Amitabha, since it is such a kind gesture from a Taoist friend, how can I refuse it?" After saying that, the master said to the stall owner, "Please give me another large bowl of chopped green onion beef noodles."

"Okay."

Lin Fan: ...

Bunny: ...

After a long time, the second bowl of chopped green onion beef noodles was served by the master. Lin Fan and Xiaotu watched silently without saying much. When the master finished his meal, he asked Xiaotu to take the packed beef noodles home to her mother.

And he needed to talk to the master about something.

The little rabbit was very well-behaved and hurried away with the noodles.

At this time, the master rolled up his sleeves to wipe the oil stains from the corners of his mouth and said slowly: "Thank you for your hospitality, fellow Taoist. I am very grateful."

"Master, you are too kind. I am honored to meet you. I wonder which Buddhist place you are from."

"I come from Hongfa Temple on Wugong Mountain in Ji'an Prefecture."

"Master, what's the matter that brings you here?" Lin Fan asked.

We can get a glimpse of the current state of the world from this remote area of ​​Huanglang Town. Although we cannot be absolutely sure, it is enough to prove that there is a great possibility that the current state of the world is not very good.

Master Guiwu sighed, "Alas, I have been down the mountain for decades, with nothing to do. I have only walked the world with my feet, just to kill demons and eliminate evil spirits, so as to prevent evil spirits from causing harm to the people. Unfortunately, there are countless demons and evil spirits in the world, and the evil in people's hearts has encouraged their arrogance. It is not easy at all."

"Master, what about those immortal sects in this world? Don't they care about it?" Lin Fan asked.

"Xianmen? What Xianmen?"

Master Guiwu was shocked by Lin Fan's words.

"It's similar to the Chaotian Taoist Temple and the master's temple. Aren't the sects where those practitioners are located the immortal sects?" Lin Fan said.

He naturally noticed the master's puzzled expression.

Don’t do that, don’t ever say there is no immortal gate.

Besides caring about the people, he went down the mountain to seek immortals and climb to the top of the mountain.

Master Guiwu was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Daoyou, you said you came from Chaotian Taoist Temple, and your master is Lingxiao Taoist?"

"It is my master."

"No wonder, no wonder. Taoist Ling Xiao was practicing halfway and accidentally entered an ancient cave and obtained the method of cultivation. Naturally, he didn't know many things about cultivation. Now there is no immortal gate. In my Hongfa Temple, I am the only one practicing Buddhism. As for the rest... it's better not to mention it. It's better not to mention it."

Master Guiwu shook his head and sighed, obviously very disappointed with the situation of the temple.

"Ah, this..." Lin Fan originally thought that there was a fairy gate, but who could have imagined this would be the case. Forget it, if it doesn't exist, then it doesn't exist. He only knows three spells now, and he wanted to communicate with other Taoist friends and learn other spells. Now it seems he has to find it himself.

The master was able to enter the ancient cave by chance, and if he deliberately looked for it in the future, the possibility of him finding it would definitely be higher than that of the master.

Master Guiwu asked, "Did you inhale the flesh spirit incense when you were practicing?"

"The master knows the flesh spirit fragrance."

"Of course I know that the method of refining Flesh Spirit Incense was given to your master by me. Your master does not practice Buddhism, and breathes in the turbid and evil air between heaven and earth. Although it can speed up the pace of practice, it is very easy to disturb the mind. Therefore, I gave him the method of refining Flesh Spirit Incense, hoping that he can absorb Flesh Spirit Incense to practice. Judging from your appearance now, it is obvious that he has listened to me."

Hearing these contents.

His heart was moved.

The master and senior brothers really care about him.

I understand. I understand everything.

The master is ugly and gloomy.

Senior brother is ugly and crazy.

It turned out that it was all caused by the evil air they breathed in between heaven and earth, and giving him the Flesh Spirit Fragrance to practice was to protect him.

Thinking of this...

Deep in his heart he couldn't help but shout...Master, I understand you.

"Master, my master didn't listen."

"ah?"

Master Guiwu only felt a shock at his waist, which was almost broken.

"I didn't understand it before, but now after hearing what the master said, I completely understand. My master didn't take the Flesh Spirit Incense, which led to his violent temper and ugly appearance. In the end, I and... and my senior brother..." Before he finished speaking, he put the axe on his waist on the table, feeling extremely sad, "He was hacked to death by me and my senior brother."

At this moment, Master Guiwu stared at the axe on the table with eyes full of wisdom.

Obviously I have a lot to say.

But for a moment I didn't know what to say.

final……

"Amitabha, fate plays tricks on us. This is the fate of Taoist Ling Xiao. Fellow Taoist, you don't need to blame yourself. It's not your fault. It's because Taoist Ling Xiao has entered the evil path. Fellow Taoist and Brother Ling Xiao have no choice but to do this. I believe that Taoist Ling Xiao also hopes that you will do this."

Good, good, very good. He didn't expect that the Taoist friend who invited him to eat noodles was actually a ruthless person who killed his master.

No wonder I felt that there was something wrong with the fellow Taoist in front of me when I first saw him. So that's why.

The master once looked at the method of nourishing the mind by eating air, and found that this method is very evil.

"I think my master would also hope so." Lin Fan sighed, then looked at Master Gui Wu's appearance and asked in confusion: "Master, since you know that breathing in and out bad air can easily disturb your mind and change your appearance, why don't you eat meat and spirit incense, which can at least maintain your appearance."

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Master Guiwu obviously knew that Lin Fan would ask this question, and said with a smile: "Buddhist practice focuses on the heart, and the appearance is just a smelly skin bag. I am a Buddhist disciple, how can I eat the flesh and blood refined meat spirit incense? Moreover, my great wish is to save the evil spirits in the world. How can I do it without profound Buddhist teachings?"

Lin Fan said in admiration: "So that's how it is. The master is worthy of being a master. He sacrificed his life to save the people. I am still far from reaching the master's level."

No wonder the master was able to keep his mind calm by exhaling the bad air. He relied on the profound Buddhist teachings to suppress his inner heart.

It is difficult for others to learn such methods.

"Amitabha, I and my fellow Taoists both care about the common people. It is my fortune to meet you. I am not alone in my path."

Although the master chants sutras and recites Buddhist scriptures all day long, he actually has a good grasp of the ways of the human world. My fellow Taoist praises me so much, how can I not be sensible.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable."

"Amitabha."

At this time, Master Guiwu took out a piece of sutra from his arms and handed it to Lin Fan.

"Master, what is this?"

"Fellow Daoist, I have read a lot of Buddhist scriptures and have gained some inspiration. I have summarized a boxing technique called 'Demon Subduing Fist'. Although it is not a great boxing technique, it contains Buddhist teachings. If you practice it a few times when you have nothing to do, it can help suppress your mind and prevent you from falling into evil ways."

Originally, the master had never thought of taking out this thing.

To ordinary people, it is just a simple and unremarkable boxing technique, but to the Taoist friend in front of him, it is a life-saving thing that can suppress the demons in his heart.

I am afraid that one day I will meet fellow Taoist Xuan Dian again and find that he has already gone astray.

That would be bad.

He knew the methods of Taoist Ling Xiao, which were three steps: bloodshot eyes, rotten sores, and poison, and each one of them was an evil method.

If Lin Fan knew that the master said the magic he practiced was evil.

Then I must nag him.

Blood Eyes helps the master to be free.

Poison can cure diseases and save lives.

How can it be said to be an evil dharma? It is pure prejudice.

At this time, Lin Fan took the sutra as if he had found a treasure, "Thank you very much, Master, for teaching me the Dharma. I will definitely not let you down."

"Meeting is fate, and being able to meet fellow Taoists is also destined by heaven." The master slowly stood up, "I have been nagging fellow Taoists for a long time, and it is time for me to leave. I hope that I can have the opportunity to sit on the ground with fellow Taoists in the future and discuss Taoism with each other."

"Okay, Master, see you again if we are lucky."

Lin Fan also stood up and performed the salute of fellow travelers. Then the Buddha and the Taoist walked away shoulder to shoulder, one to the other side of the road and the other to the other side.

Walking and walking.

Lin Fan stopped, and Master Gui Wu also stopped and turned around. The two looked at each other from a distance of about ten meters in the crowded street. One bowed and the other performed a Buddhist salute.

Lin Fan turned around and left gracefully.

Master Guiwu just watched silently.

"Amitabha, you were born in the wrong era."

"In this Dharma Ending Age, the emergence of a person as talented as you is truly..."

"It's time, fate, and luck. It's not something I can control."
