Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

Chapter 564: Nine Bows before the Buddha at Kongying Temple

There are thousands of ravines and valleys, but if the mind is in order, it will be empty;

A myriad of illusions and changes, everything becomes a shadow when the sun sets in the sky!

Kongying Temple is a very inconspicuous temple in Luanya Mountain. It is not inconspicuous, but a very small temple with no courtyard or wall, only one house. On the left side of the house is the Buddhist hall, and on the right side of the house is the Zen room. In front of the house is a pond, the pond is as clear as a blue sky, and behind the house is a thousand-foot cliff!

Strangely, the incense here is very popular! This is because not far from the Kongying Temple is an official road, an official road between two thousand-foot cliffs, and the official road goes straight to the north and south of Luanya Mountain.

The road to the north is Jianying City, and this is the place where everyone who wants to enter Jianying City can seek peace of mind, of course, except for those who have bad intentions!

On the other side of the official road is a Taoist temple, which is also a building, but it is in a dilapidated state. From a distance, there are only broken walls and overgrown weeds!

Alas, there are many people in the world who worship Buddha, but few who seek the truth. I wonder if all living beings are foolish, or if all Buddhas are wise?

There was also a pond in front of the Taoist temple. The water in the pond was clear and still. The temple had only one main hall, in which a person was sleeping, a Taoist priest, a stone-carved Taoist priest!

A temple and a shrine are located on both sides of this official road in Luanya Mountain. No one can tell how many years they have existed!

Luanya Mountain is the mountain range to the north of Wohu Pass. The mountains are carved by knives and axes and are covered with cliffs.

The clouds transform into the shadow of the lake, and the changes seem real!

A person walked in front of Kongying Temple. She had a beautiful face but a worried expression. She must be going to Jianying City because she walked into the Buddhist hall.

The woman didn't know who the Buddha was in front of her. She burned incense and knelt down to worship him, her heart sincere but restless.

After kowtowed three times, I kowtowed three more times, but my heart was still not at peace. I kowtowed three more times, but my heart was still not at peace!

She got up reluctantly, walked out of the Buddhist hall, and came to the edge of the pond. The shadows of the clouds seemed like her heart, ever-changing.

"Hey!"

With a sigh, he turned around and prepared to leave.

"Amitabha, the female donor is confused, why don't you take another look at the Kongying Temple?"

A voice stopped the woman who was about to leave.

The woman turned around, but her brows furrowed even more.

Outside the Zen room stood an old monk with white eyebrows and no beard, a kind face, but he seemed to be blind!

The woman bowed and whispered:

"Master, my disciple has no deep thoughts, but I don't know what's going on in my heart!"

"Not knowing is emptiness. What's the use of having a shadow in your mind? Clouds are illusions, but the water in the pond is still water in the end!"

The woman didn't know what he meant. After thinking for a long time, she bowed again.

"Thank you, Master!"

The woman turned and left, her brows seemed to relax a little. There were not thousands of shadows in her mind, but only one shadow. However, her heart was empty, because that shadow was empty. She knew nothing about that shadow. No, she knew nothing about why she killed that man!

The woman must have been thinking about the figure in her mind, so of course she didn't see anyone. She bumped into someone, and they both exclaimed at the same time:

"It's you!"

"It's you!"

The man who was hit was slightly fat and had a dusty look on his face. He actually shook his head first to make sure that he had not seen the woman in front of him wrongly, but he felt that he had heard it wrongly, and said softly:

"Gongsun, Gongsun..."

He didn't know whether to call her "Young Master" or "Miss". After a pause, he spoke directly:

"Gongsun Qingyu, why are you here?"

This confused woman is Gongsun Qingyu. As she travels north, the figure in her mind is of course Shen Yichen. But Gongsun Qingyu can't figure out why she wants to kill Shen Yichen. Kill him if you want! But why can't she forget him?

Gongsun Qingyu looked at the person in front of him, a little surprised, and responded softly:

"The arrival of the Ouyang family's holy sword is such a grand event. Of course I have to enter the Sword City to watch the grand event! Why is the Second Young Master like this? It seems like he has walked a long way!"

Ouyang Jingde! Of course he walked a long way and killed many people!

"you you…"

Ouyang Jingde put away his surprised expression. He was sure that he had heard correctly. Gongsun Qingyu's voice was a woman's voice. He smiled slightly and whispered:

"Please! We'll meet in Jianying City!"

Ouyang Jingde made way for him. Gongsun Qingyu was slightly stunned, but she still walked forward and turned to go straight north. Of course, she was going to Jianying City!

Gongsun Qingyu felt that Ouyang Jingde had changed, but this seemed to have nothing to do with her.

Ouyang Jingde looked at the receding figure and smiled slightly!

The stunning sight in the ancient city in the desert seemed to be just yesterday. Ouyang Jingde even felt that he still had goose bumps all over his body. Now that they met again, it felt like a lifetime ago. However, the stunning feeling in his heart was still there, and this time he didn't need to get goose bumps, because Gongsun Qingyu was a normal woman!

Ouyang Jingde didn't know why Gongsun Qingyu had such a change, but it seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Ouyang Jingde shook his head, turned and walked towards Kongying Temple.

Ouyang Jingde walked into the Buddhist temple, burned incense and kowtowed.

Some things are really amazing. Ouyang Jingde actually kowtowed nine times!

"Hey!"

With a long sigh, he walked out of the Buddhist hall and came to the pond. At this time, the pond was cloudless and the water was clear and the bottom was visible. However, Ouyang Jingde's heart was filled with worries. No, he was very confident, but he could not see what was behind that confidence!

Perhaps the sadness in his heart had entered the pond! Soon the pond was filled with cloud shadows again.

"Although the clouds are illusory, my heart remains unchanged!"

After Ouyang Jingde finished speaking, he actually took off his clothes, but instead of taking a bath, he threw all his clothes into the pool.

The water is rippling and the clouds are invisible!

Ouyang Jingde rolled on the ground for a few times, covered in dirt and with disheveled hair, he left the Kongying Temple, only to hear a sneer:

"Jian Yingcheng, I'm back, do you still recognize me?"

In front of the meditation room of Kongying Temple, the blind old monk appeared again, but he was not blind. He looked at the pool water and the clothes, shook his head, and waved his hand gently. A ray of Buddha's light flashed, and the clothes turned into dust and soon disappeared into the pool water.

"The Ouyang family has produced another holy sword?"

After the white-browed old monk finished speaking, he walked into the meditation room, because this seemed to have nothing to do with him.

It seemed that Kongying Temple was destined to be uneasy today. Long after Ouyang Jingde left, a man and a woman came with a dog at their feet.

"Ruolin, are we really going to Jianying City? Will it be dangerous for just the two of us?"

"Jingyun, don't be afraid, I just want to see the grand event of the Holy Sword coming to the world!"

The man and woman turned out to be Mu Ruolin and Jing Yun who were recuperating in Yaoquan.

Jingyun knew that Mu Ruolin wanted to accompany her to relax, but she was really worried about their safety!

"I, I'm afraid I'll hurt you!"

"Don't worry, this place is far away from Youzhou, no one will harm us. Besides, haven't we been living in peace all the way here? This is Yingzhou, our people can't come, and their people can't come either!"

As the two were talking, they arrived in front of Kongying Temple and walked into the Buddhist hall.

Mu Ruolin didn't want to come, but Jingyun insisted on coming. Jingyun wanted to feel at ease before entering Jianying City!

The interesting thing is that Jingyun also kowtowed nine times. After she finished, she pulled Mu Ruolin, who was standing, and signaled him to burn incense and kowtow as well.

Mu Ruolin was really unwilling in his heart, but seeing Jingyun's expression, he still knelt in front of the Buddha!

"Buddha, I pray that Jingyun and I can live happily together forever!"

After Mu Ruolin finished speaking, he also kowtowed nine times, and the two of them walked out of the Buddhist hall together.

Jingyun's face was red, hot, and full of shame.

In the Buddhist hall, Wangqiu actually kowtowed nine times, which looked very weird. But after walking out of the hall, Wangqiu went to the meditation room.

Mu Ruolin and Jingyun didn't seem to notice. They walked to the front of the pool, snuggled together, and looked at him and her in the water.

"You are not allowed to talk nonsense in the future. You cannot speak nonsense in front of the Buddha!"

Jingyun's shy face was filled with happiness!

"Jingyun, I'm speaking from my heart!"

After Mu Ruolin finished speaking, he hugged Jingyun tightly.

Wangqiu's cry broke the sweetness of the two.

Mu Ruolin looked back, his expression changed, he let go of his hand, and bowed!

"Master, I'm sorry, this vicious dog has no manners and has disturbed your meditation!"

"Wangqiu, come back!"

Mu Ruolin was really shocked. With his level of cultivation, he didn't know that a person walked out of the Zen room. He knew in his heart that the old monk with white eyebrows was not an ordinary person!

Jingyun also looked at the white-browed old monk.

The white-browed old monk looked at Mu Ruolin for a long time, then looked at Jing Yun, a trace of regret flashing across his expression.

"After more than ten years of not seeing each other, Wangqiu still remembers my scent. What a good dog!"

Mu Ruolin was surprised that the white-browed old monk actually knew Wangqiu, but he always felt that the white-browed old monk was scolding him. No, it should be his father, because Wangqiu was his father's!

Mu Ruolin bowed and asked politely:

"Master, do you know my father?"

"Wangqiu's injury has healed, so I guess Murong Yanzhi's injury has also healed! The Murong family is really not simple, they can even heal the injuries of a disabled person!"

Mu Ruolin was so shocked that she was speechless when she heard this!

"you you you……"

Mu Ruolin took Jingyun, turned around and left, and his steps were very fast.

Jingyun looked dazed!

The white-browed old monk did not seem surprised, he just shouted:

"Girl, please stay!"
