Hua Xiaolan's dantian was giving birth to an orchid!
This made the abbot Sanzang a little confused. He asked again,
"Xiaolan, can you confirm that the interior you saw was really an orchid and not a lotus?”
After all, the Zen Lotus Technique was a Buddhist martial art, and the lotus flower was a symbolic sacred object of Buddhism. It should be the lotus flower.
Hua Xiaolan looked inside again and saw the interior in her dantian.
A pink and white flower the size of a thumb was about to bloom.
She had been active in the fields and mountains since she was young, so she was very familiar with all kinds of flowers and plants.
He was sure that this was indeed an orchid!
"Abbot, it really is an orchid! Why?"
Hua Xiaolan furrowed her brows and looked worried. She was afraid that something would go wrong with her cultivation.
"This…"
The abbot Sanzang was pondering why this had happened.
Zhou Yuan was also a little surprised.
They both cultivated the Lotus Flower Technique of Zen.
He had nurtured a golden lotus, but why was Xiaolan an orchid?
Thinking about it carefully, Zhou Yuan, who was familiar with the plot, immediately understood!
The orchid was Xiao Lan's natal item. It was also the inheritance of her previous life that was hidden in her body as a Reincarnator.
Even though the Lotus Flower Technique was an innate inheritance, it was still weaker than Xiaolan's inheritance from her previous life. Thus, she didn't cultivate the lotus flower and instead awakened the orchid.
When she grew up, this orchid would be able to play a very powerful role.
However, he couldn't explain it to Xiaolan like that because she might not be able to accept her identity as a Reincarnator.
Even the abbot Sanzang did not tell Hua Xiaolan that she was the reincarnation of the three Shaolin heroes.
"Xiaolan, I don't think you've made any mistakes in your cultivation.”
Zhou Yuan suggested.
"Regardless of whether it's a lotus or an orchid, they're just a symbol. There's no distinction between good and bad.
Furthermore, according to the sutra of the Lotus Flower Technique, the interior produced during cultivation is related to the state of mind. Orchids might be more suitable for you.”
"Brother Zhou Yuan, compared to lotus flowers, I really prefer orchids.”
Zhou Yuan's words not only enlightened Hua Xiaolan, but also enlightened the abbot Sanzang.
"Xiaolan, I think this is a good thing. Why don't you follow your heart and focus on cultivating this orchid?”
The abbot Sanzang followed Zhou Yuan's words and taught Hua Xiaolan.
Actually, this was a good thing. It meant that Hua Xiaolan's martial arts inheritance from her previous life was gradually awakening!
Hua Xiaolan was unaware of this and laughed innocently.
"If Grandma knew that I had become a true martial artist, her jaw would definitely drop.”
Amid the laughter,
The carriage finally arrived at the city gate of Kaifeng Prefecture.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, they entered the bustling Kaifeng City.
New scenario unlocked: Kaifeng Prefecture. Jianghu Experience 10
Zhou Yuan's system sent him a notification.
Although it was already evening, the city was bustling with traffic and merchants were coming and going. It was very lively!
"Brother Zhou Yuan, this place is so prosperous.”
On the wide street, there were many shops and brightly lit shops. This was the first time Hua Xiaolan had seen one.
Kaifeng Prefecture was once the capital of the Song Dynasty, Bianjing.
There was a painting of Along the River during the Qingming Festival that depicted the prosperity of Bianjing.
Although this was the Immortal Martial World, Zhou Yuan had specially learned about the changes of dynasties. It was not very different from the history he was familiar with.
"It's getting late. Let's find an inn to stay in tonight and pay a visit to the magistrate tomorrow.”
Sanzang was very familiar with Kaifeng City.
Unfortunately, almost all the inns in the city were full.
Because tomorrow, Kaifeng Prefecture would hold the Imperial Examination.
The Confucian scholars and scholars in Kaifeng Prefecture had all gathered in the city, so the inn was full.
"Looks like we have to go to a few more places.”
After circling around Kaifeng City, he still couldn't find an inn with a vacant room.
"Abbot, I saw many scholars enter this place called Happy Red Court. It seems like it can be used as a lodging.”
Hua Xiaolan curiously looked at the brightly lit Pleasant Red Courtyard. A pleasant fragrance wafted out from within.
"Cough, you can't enter this place."
The abbot Sanzang was very serious and immediately changed the topic.
"If we really can't find an inn, we can only stay in the Great Xiangguo Temple first.”
Hua Xiaolan was still looking at Happy Red Courtyard reluctantly. She liked the lively atmosphere, just like the new year.
Very soon,
The abbot Sanzang drove the carriage and brought the two of them to Daxiangguo Temple.
It was strange that although this Great Xiangguo Temple was a Buddhist temple, it was located in the most prosperous area of Kaifeng!
Although it was already late at night, there were still many hawkers setting up stalls on the street in front of the temple. They sold all kinds of items.
Lanterns, brush and ink, animal skin, martial arts manuals, weapons, cosmetics…
It could be said that there was everything there was to see!
Many scholars and merchants came and went to the Great Xiangguo Temple and stayed here for the night.
It didn't look like a temple at all. It looked more like a "commercial center".
There were even hawkers setting up stalls in the corridors of the temple.
Zhou Yuan was a little surprised. Was this really a Buddhist temple?
Hua Xiaolan was equally surprised.
Seeing their surprise, the abbot Sanzang smiled and said,
"You might not know this, but this Daxiangguo Temple was once a royal temple of the Song Dynasty. It was resplendent and famous.
Every day, thousands of pilgrims break through the threshold.
Because there were so many people, it attracted many vendors to set up stalls here to sell their goods.
Over time, this place became the most prosperous commercial center of Bianjing and Kaifeng.
Although the previous dynasty had been destroyed and the Great Xiangguo Temple was no longer a royal temple, its glory was not as good as before, but it still retained a lot of its fireworks.
This was a peaceful place for Buddhism and also a place for trade.”
After listening to Sanzang's explanation, Zhou Yuan and Hua Xiaolan's doubts were resolved.
Among the ancient temples in the world, the Great Xiangguo Temple should be the most lively.
"The abbot of the Great Xiangguo Temple, Master Yuanjue, is a good friend of mine.”
The abbot Sanzang called out to a novice monk and explained his intentions.
After the little monk passed the message, he led the few of them to a quiet meditation room and said,
"Many scholars and merchants have been staying for the past two days. This is the only empty room left in the temple.
However, the abbot said that he would like to invite the Abbot Sanzang to live with him and exchange Buddhist teachings and cultivation matters.”
Unable to refuse, the abbot Sanzang went to see Master Yuanjue.
As for Zhou Yuan and Hua Xiaolan, they could only share a room.
Fortunately, the two of them were engaged and had grown up together, so the abbot Sanzang was not worried about the problem of men and women not being close.
Before they parted ways, he specially reminded them,
"In a while, I will ask the novice monk to send some vegetarian food over. Don't wander around the temple alone. Although this is a bustling trade center, it's not that safe with all the good and bad people mixed together.”
