To be honest, Zhang Xiaofan didn't know what kind of feelings he had for Puzhi, especially since he knew the plot very well.
He should hate this person because this person had personally slaughtered all the villagers in Grass Temple Village. Only he and Lin Jingyu were lucky enough to not die. However, Puzhi was his first master. A teacher for a day was a father for life! How can you make him hate you, how can he blame you?
Although this was Zhang Xiaofan's first time seeing Puzhi, he was still feeling very uneasy.
"Patron, you seem to be distracted! She was so young, but she had so many worries. This was not good…not good!”Puzhi held the prayer beads in his hand. The demonic blood-devouring bead in the middle of the prayer beads was black and dazzling.
"It's all because of you that I'm uneasy!”Zhang Xiaofan ignored Puzhi and said to Lin Jingyu,""Let's go. Ignore this old monk!”
Lin Jingyu didn't have a good impression of the monk either. He agreed and left with Zhang Xiaofan and his friends.
Zhang Xiaofan walked out of the temple gate. After taking a few steps, he couldn't help but look back at Puzhi. In the end, he sighed in his heart. He felt that he couldn't hate Puzhi. Even though he knew that his parents and villagers might die in the hands of this person, he really couldn't hate him. This was because the night of the murder wasn't Puzhi's intention. The most hateful person was still the Demonic Priest, Cang Song.
The day passed quickly. In the evening, he arrived at the grass temple long ago. As expected, Monk Puzhi was still in the temple.
"Little benefactor, why did you return? Don't you hate This Penniless Monk?”Puzhi was sitting on a pile of weeds in the middle of the temple. He was meditating with his eyes closed. When he heard footsteps outside the temple, he opened his eyes and found that it was the strange child in the daytime.
Zhang Xiaofan took out two steamed buns from his pocket and handed them to Puzhi. He imitated Puzhi's gesture and bowed to him. He smiled and said,""Big monk, I'm sure you're hungry, so I brought you some food! As for you saying that I hate you, how should I put it? When I first met you, I hated you for some unspeakable reasons, but now I don't hate you anymore! Because there are some things that you can't help!”
Zhang Xiaofan then sat down in front of Puzhi and straightened his legs.""Do you feel strange and don't understand what I'm saying?”
Puzhi nodded blankly and said gently,""Amitabha! This Penniless Monk really couldn't hear Little Benefactor's words! However, looking at the clarity between Little Benefactor's eyebrows, I believe that you have already put down your worries. This Penniless Monk is very gratified! Whether or not you understand your words is up to fate. There's no need to force it, there's no difference!”
Zhang Xiaofan was completely speechless. What did he mean by it didn't make a difference? "I don't understand what you're saying, Great Monk!" he said to Puzhi with a dry smile.”
Puzhi didn't say anything. He looked at Zhang Xiaofan carefully for a while before saying,""Little benefactor, your face is fair, and your bones are not strange! He looks like he's seven or eight years old, but his eyes show wisdom that's different from his age…"
Zhang Xiaofan was dumbfounded and asked,""I understand the latter part, but what does the front part mean by the face is fair and the bones are not strange?”
Puzhi twirled the prayer beads in his hand and patted Zhang Xiaofan's head. He smiled and said,""It means that your face is ordinary and your bones are ordinary!”
Zhang Xiaofan was furious. After all this time, the old monk had only given him an evaluation. Passerby A.
I'm the main character of Celestial Bane, alright! You're the passerby! Zhang Xiaofan couldn't help but feel indignant. He argued,""So what if he looks ordinary? His bones were ordinary, and that was nothing! A person's achievements were not only based on innate conditions, but also on hard work! I have no choice but to do things with perseverance. I can spend ten times or a hundred times more time than others to do something! From a certain perspective, ordinary and average represented the masses and the masses. For example, there were two children. One of them had an excellent brain but a poor body. He was only suitable for business because his body was not too tired. The other child had an average brain and body. He was not good at business, but he had another choice, which was to be a farmer. He could also be a merchant and a farmer together! This gave him another choice! Then which one of these two children do you think is better?”
Puzhi felt as if he had been struck by lightning. After a while, he put his palms together and nodded at Zhang Xiaofan with a hint of gratitude in his voice."Little benefactor, your Dao is profound. This poor monk has learned a lot! That's right, a full moon is a loss. Being too outstanding may not be a good thing!”
Just as Zhang Xiaofan was feeling smug, Puzhi said,""Little benefactor, you have deep wisdom. I wonder if you are interested in cultivating Buddhism with This Penniless Monk? This penniless monk is a monk of the Chord Temple. If you agree, this penniless monk can take you in as my disciple!”
Zhang Xiaofan pretended to be surprised and exclaimed,""Heavenly Chord Temple? Could it be the Heavenly Chord Temple, one of the three righteous sects that was as famous as the Qingyun Sect? I've heard of the famous Heavenly Chord Temple, but I think it's better to forget about it!”
Zhang Xiaofan refused. He thought to himself,'Oh my god, how did I manage to convince this old monk to accept me as his disciple?' I don't want to be a monk at the Chord Temple! I still want to marry a wife!
"Why is that?" Puzhi asked in surprise.”Indeed, he should be surprised. With the reputation of the Chord Temple, if they were to randomly find a place to announce that they were taking in disciples, wouldn't it be crowded with people lining up? However, this child in front of him actually rejected his request.
Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said shyly,""I'm the only descendant of my Zhang family. My father still needs me to carry on the family line! Therefore, it was better to forget about becoming a monk!”
Of course, there was another reason for his refusal. If he agreed to Puzhi's request to become a monk at the Chord Temple, he would have to follow Puzhi to the Chord Temple if Puzhi didn't die. Zhang Xiaofan was a disciple of the Qingyun Sect. If he became a little monk, the plot would be changed too much. Zhang Xiaofan couldn't predict the consequences. He couldn't afford to take the risk, so he had to refuse.
Another reason was that Zhang Xiaofan had long admired the masters and wives of the Qingyun Sect's Big Bamboo Peak. He wanted to get close to them and live with them. He didn't want to spend time with a group of bald donkeys.
Puzhi had no choice but to sigh at Zhang Xiaofan's words. After all, he couldn't stop him from spreading the incense.
The old and the young, the monk and the commoner chatted as time flew by.
The sky was already dark.
"Xiaofan, hurry home!" Puzhi hurriedly said. It's already dark!"
Zhang Xiaofan thought to himself,'I came here to stop this tragedy from happening. How can I go home?' "It's fine, it's fine!" He pretended to say casually. My parents aren't at home, and it's boring to be alone at home. I might as well talk to the monk here to relieve my boredom. If I really can't do it tonight, I won't go back!”
Puzhi twirled the prayer beads with one hand and stroked his beard with the other.
Suddenly, thunder roared, and the wind swept away the clouds. Black clouds rolled in the sky.
Everything in the world had disappeared, leaving only the wind and thunder.
Puzhi stood up with a solemn expression and stared at the village in the west. He saw a huge black gas suddenly rising from there, rolling and surging.
The black gas rolled straight toward the grass temple at a speed as fast as lightning.
Puzhi's expression changed drastically. He turned around and shouted at Zhang Xiaofan,""Hide behind the statue. Don't come out no matter what happens later!”After he finished speaking, his figure flashed and flew towards the black gas.
Zhang Xiaofan thought to himself,'The main character is finally here!'
He was also concerned about whether he would be exposed. He said to Puzhi's back,"Master, that child has a seven-tailed centipede on him. Be careful!”
