Chapter 237: I Have a Fate with Buddha (Subscription Request)
"when……"

Ye Ningxiu paused, frowned and looked at Chen Yi, and asked: "Who are you?"

Chen Yi looked at him strangely, took a step forward, and in the blink of an eye he was beside him, with his hand on his shoulder, and said with a smile:
"Does this Taoist priest have hearing problems? My name is Lu Xiaofeng, and I have just registered."

Ye Ningxiu's face froze, and he looked in astonishment at the shadow that was slowly disappearing before his eyes, then he turned his head to look at the hand on his shoulder.

--So fast!
At that moment just now, Ye Ningxiu was clearly staring at Chen Yi, but he didn't notice that he was approaching him at all.

At this time, the middle-aged Taoist priest next to him looked serious, then calmed down, put his whisk in one hand, smiled and praised:

"Lu Xiaofeng... I am Lu Hequn, the deputy sect master of Yuhua Xianmen. Fellow Daoist Lu Xiaofeng, you have such a handsome body movement."

He bowed and signaled Ye Ningxiu to be patient.

Ye Ningxiu's face darkened slightly, but he did not refute it. He forced a smile and said, "I am Ye Ningxiu from Yuhua Xianmen, nice to meet you, young friend."

"I know, I know." Chen Yi's eyebrows trembled, and he distanced himself from him, and said with a fake bow:

"Please forgive me, Taoist priests. I was a little rash."

"I am good friends with Brother Lu Fang of your sect. I came to talk to you because I recognized your identities."

Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn looked at each other, and said with a somewhat relaxed expression: "Since he is a good friend of Junior-Junior Brother Lu Fang, he is naturally a distinguished guest of my Yuhua Xianmen."

Lu Hequn nodded and agreed, "It just so happens that Junior Brother Lu Fang will be in Dakong Temple today to compete with the Tianjiao of Vajra Temple. Why don't you come along?"

"Then why are you so embarrassed?"

As he spoke, Chen Yi looked at the little monk outside the Dakong Temple, pointed at himself and said:
"Can I go in with them now?"

"..."

The young monk looked at the three people, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded and said, "Three donors, please follow me in first."

Another young monk signaled him to slow down, then left a few others behind and went into Dakong Temple to report.

Afterwards, Chen Yi followed Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn and entered the Dakong Temple with a relaxed look on his face.

At this moment, the starry night is still there, but the sky is not yet bright.

The light of dawn and the slightly dim moonlight shine on this Buddhist temple courtyard built on a hill, but it does not appear dim.

From the moment you enter Dakong Temple, you will see candle-lit lamps on both sides, making the stone road clearly visible.

Lotus flowers are carved on the bluestone slabs of a relatively simple texture. The lotus pods wrapped in petals are very flat, as if they have been rounded after being trampled on and soaked by rain for years - this should be what Buddhism calls lotus flowers blooming with every step.

There are courtyards on both sides of the stone road. The walls are not high and the wall surface is bright yellow, but it becomes a little dim because of the lamps and moonlight.

After crossing this flat stone road, there is a long staircase leading to the Buddhist temple on the top of the mountain.

Each step is as crystal clear as jade, bright but not dazzling in the dim night.

From a distance, you can see two rows of monasteries located above the stairs, like guardians on the left and right, guarding the golden Buddhist temple on the top of the mountain.

When he reached the foot of the long staircase, the young monk paused, clasped his hands together, lowered his head and said:
"Three donors, please wait here for a moment. After I, your junior monk, report to you, you can decide whether to stay or go."

Seeing Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn standing there without saying anything, Chen Yi nodded indifferently and looked around.

"Brother, did you see clearly the movements that Lu Xiaofeng just displayed?"

Ye Ningxiu showed no expression, his eyes calmly staring at the white jade stairs above him, but secretly he sent a message to Lu Hequn beside him.

"When he came to my side just now, I didn't even notice it at all..."

Lu Hequn also had an expression unchanged, and replied in a voice transmission: "I didn't see his figure clearly either. No, it should be the same as you. I didn't even see when he took a step."

"I just know that when I saw him, he had already appeared beside you."

Ye Ningxiu was secretly shocked. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the scene was too horrifying.

This kind of body movement was something he had never seen before in his life.

Even when Chen Yi was fighting with "Black Impermanence" Liao Wei before, he could see traces of the two men's figures in the battle.

And this Lu Xiaofeng... with his cultivation in the Wandering Divine Realm, his soul was still vaguely connected to the power of heaven and earth, but he didn't even notice the person in front of him.

The same was true for Lu Hequn next to him.

"Junior Brother, have you heard his name from Junior Brother Lu Fang?"

"No, when I met Junior Brother Lu Fang yesterday, he was verifying Buddhist and Taoist scriptures with 'Dakong Buddha'."

Ye Ningxiu thought for a moment, then glanced at Chen Yi who was wandering around and said, "Brother, he just called me nephew Lu Fang, big brother?"

Lu Hequn thought about it and said in a voice transmission: "It seems so... I will ask you more about it when I see Junior-Martial Brother Lu Fang later."

"If a talented person with strange body movements like this can make friends with my Yuhua Immortal Sect, it will be a great help in Taizhou Mountain in the future."

Ye Ningxiu nodded secretly, his expression relaxed, and his dissatisfaction with "Lu Xiaofeng's" previous "deaf" remark dissipated.

Since Lu Xiaofeng is on good terms with Lu Fang, he is equivalent to his junior. It's just a few minor comments and it won't be a big deal.

Chen Yike didn't know the content of the conversation between Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn, but even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

As early as last night when he noticed that people from the Yuhua Immortal Sect appeared in the Dakong Temple, he had already made up his mind to get rid of the Yuhua Immortal Sect before going to Taizhou Mountain, so that they would not jump out and cause trouble for him and Taixu Dao Sect in the future.

As for this moment, Chen Yi focused more on Dakong Temple.

Fifteen years had passed since he last came to Dakong Temple.

I remember that during the Lantern Festival that year, he was brought along by Xia Wanwan, along with a little maid and her mother, Lady Xingguogong.

It was also at that time that the two of them were abducted by the "crazy old man" Fengshan after they left Dakong Temple.

Recalling his childhood experiences and looking at the Dakong Temple in front of him, Chen Yi couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

When he returned to the old place, he no longer had the mood to travel.

Even though his cultivation and skills are now able to protect himself, he is still burdened by worldly matters and it is difficult for him to achieve the "great freedom" as described in Buddhism.

At this time, the little monk walked down the white jade stairs, trotted over to the three people, put his hands together and said:

"Three donors, please follow me. The abbot is waiting in the Buddhist hall."

"Lead the way."

Lu Hequn responded calmly, turned to look at Chen Yi, and said with a timely smile on his face:

"My friend, please."

"The two Taoist priests, please come first."

After some politeness, Chen Yi and the other two followed the young monk up the stairs along the white jade street.

Huh?
As soon as he stepped onto a long flight of stairs, Chen Yi paused and subconsciously looked down at his feet.

He just realized that this long staircase is not only beautiful, but the faint fluorescence on it also hides the merits and vows of Buddhism.

Just as he had discovered before when he used his divine sense to sense the Dakong Temple, this long staircase had the same "merit and vows".

Moreover, the "merit and vows" within him seemed to be trying to invade his body.

"Humph!"

Chen Yi snorted secretly, and a ray of divine power that was within reach emanated from his body. As he took a step, the stairs under his feet shattered into pieces.

click!
click!
click!
A series of clear and crisp sounds of jade breaking rang out, causing the young monk, Ye Ningxiu, and Lu Hequn who were walking in front to pause and turn around to look at him in confusion. When they saw the white jade steps under his feet breaking apart, emitting wisps of golden Buddha light, the three of them couldn't help but change their expressions.

"Donor, why are you destroying Buddhist things like this?!" the little monk asked with a grim look on his face.

Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn were a little confused: "My friend, why are you doing this?"

Chen Yi tilted his head and laughed, but his eyes were a little cold as he said:
"Forgive me, I am not a Buddhist, and I cannot remain indifferent when being attacked by 'merit and vows'."

Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn were both stunned. Invasion?

They looked down at their feet and checked their bodies carefully, but felt nothing. They looked at each other in confusion.

Chen Yi ignored their gazes and stepped forward, but the long white jade steps under his feet were still broken by his steps.

The young monk's face was filled with rage, and he pointed at him with a trembling finger: "This donor, please leave! I, my Dakong Temple does not welcome people like you who are disrespectful to Buddhism!"

"Oh?"

Chen Yi paused, slightly tilted his head and glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, and said coldly:

"I'm sorry to disappoint you. What I like to do most is what others don't allow me to do."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure began to slowly disappear.

Then, a series of figures appeared on each of the long white jade steps.

Accompanied by a series of "cracking" sounds of jade shattering, in just a blink of an eye, Chen Yi had arrived outside the Buddhist temple on the top of the mountain.

Under him, the white jade stairs that were originally emitting fluorescent light seemed to be catching up with his figure. After the stairs were broken, they emitted dazzling golden Buddha light.

"This……"

Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn stared blankly at the figure on the long steps. Even though their eyes were reflected in golden color and they were surrounded by Buddha's light, they did not close their eyes.

"You, how dare you do this?! You..."

Before the young monk could continue to point at Chen Yi and question him with trembling lips, a bell rang from the Buddhist temple on the top of the mountain.

bang——

"Qingning, please go outside."

Then, a gentle voice with a compassionate tone sounded in everyone's ears.

The young monk's face was filled with anger and he opened his mouth to say something, but under the command of the voice, he had to turn around and walk down the mountain with a red face.

But he forgot that the white jade steps below had been broken by Chen Yi. When he stepped down, the jade shattered and he slipped.

Before he could even scream, he rolled down.

Seeing this scene, the coldness on Chen Yi's face disappeared immediately, and he laughed out loud, pointing at the little monk who was face-down on the ground.

"If you can't even walk properly, why bother practicing Buddhism or reciting sutras? You should just leave the secular world and find a girl to start a family."

"..."

Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn looked at each other in silence, but when they thought of the voice of the person who had spoken earlier, they didn't say much and flew up.

But Chen Yi's laughter was interrupted by a figure that suddenly appeared beside him.

"With Buddha in one's heart, everything can be cultivated. Even if Qingning falls, it is also part of his merit cultivation."

Chen Yi turned his head and looked over, and saw an old monk with a kind face.

He looked at the other person's golden and red cassock, the golden scepter, and the nine scars on his head, and said with a sneer:
"Then your Buddha is really nosy."

The old monk said "Amitabha" and put one hand on his chest. He smiled peacefully and said, "Little donor, I would like to ask for Qingning's forgiveness."

"Don't, don't."

Chen Yi dodged sideways, snorted and said, "I am not worthy of your monks' greetings."

"I don't know if one day you will tell me 'you and Buddha have a connection' and then call on the Buddhists to convert me."

This was almost a major source of Buddhist monks in the Wei Dynasty - conversion!
Since more than two hundred years ago, after the Buddhist countries in the West moved eastward, the monks in the Buddhist temples throughout the Wei Dynasty were either some poor people who could not make ends meet or evil people who were converted by various masters.

Among them, most are some evil demons that have been famous for a long time.

I heard that some of the evil demons who are famous in the world are most afraid of encountering Buddhist monks.

Regardless of whether they can win or not, just the words "Amitabha" and "Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha" are enough to make them avoid him as much as possible.

"The little donor is joking,"

The old monk paused, his pair of bright black eyes faintly showing two golden rays of light. He looked at him and said:

"But I can see that you are indeed predestined to be with me, the Buddha."

"..."

Chen Yi rolled his eyes and thought to himself, what a coincidence this bald guy is.

In this life, he was a Taoist in his life and a Taoist ghost in his death. He had nothing to do with the merits of Buddhism.

Even if he really went to the eighteen levels of hell because of his sins of killing, he would kill his way through hell first.

At this time, Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn landed beside them and saluted to the old monk:

"Greetings, Master Kong Jing. We are here as agreed. I hope you can forgive us."

Empty and clean?

It turned out that the old monk was the abbot of Dakong Temple, Master Kongjing.

Chen Yi suddenly realized something, but he calmly retreated behind Taoist priests Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn.

"This old monk, I came here with them. If you want compensation, go to them. They have money."

Three people: "..."

Master Kong Jing laughed in silence, and said with a hint of helplessness on his slightly old face:

"The white jade stairs were made from the merits and wishes of the many lay Buddhists who came to worship the Buddha. It didn't cost much money."

"That's good."

Chen Yi seemed to be relieved, grinning and showing two rows of teeth, saying: "I thought the merit and vows on this ladder were some kind of evil power, and it actually wanted to invade my body."

He looked at Ye Ningxiu and Lu Hequn, who were still confused, patted them on the shoulders and asked:

"Two Taoist priests, did you feel nothing just now?"

"No." Ye Ningxiu forced a smile, shook his head and said, "I just feel a lot more at ease."

Lu Hequn also shook his head: "Perhaps it is because my friend has a high level of cultivation that I did not notice anything."

"is it?"

Chen Yi muttered, "Then you better be careful, don't let anyone take you into the Buddhist sect and turn you into a little monk who guards the gate."

"..."
