Chapter 30: Huahong Soars

Song Dynasty, Jiangnan, Xuancheng.

In the early morning, Jingting Mountain was covered with clouds and mist. Yuan Xing and Zhou Mo found a hillside to sit down. They saw that the surrounding forests and valleys were deep and the springs were gurgling, which seemed particularly beautiful. The restlessness in their hearts seemed to have been washed away. No wonder Li Bai left the famous saying "I never get tired of seeing each other, only Jingting Mountain".

"I've been watched." Zhou Mo glanced at the people around the foot of the mountain: "If we can't return, will we be beaten to death by these people?"

"The donor would better pray that the aborted system of me is more reliable. It doesn't matter if I am beaten with thick skin and thick flesh, and the donor will suffer." Yuan Xing smiled faintly on his face. Today is the last day of the March period. In a short while, Jin Chan would open the teleportation gate and send the two back separately.

"Are you a monk becoming more and more addicted to pretending? You can even make up the reason for the ascension of Honghua." Zhou Mo rolled his eyes and complained.

"What's the solution? Should I really go to meet the emperor of the Song Dynasty?" Yuan Xing scratched his bald head in distress. Because his name of the monk was so popular, he attracted the will of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty to come to the capital to meet the saint. Naturally, he refused. The reason for his rejection was that his merits were fulfilled and he was about to ascend to the Buddha's realm. Now, not only are there local old and famous scholars in the martial arts world at the foot of the mountain, but also eunuchs in the imperial court participated, all of whom were watching how they flew to the "West".

"I just want to go back early now to have some meat to eat." Zhou Mo sighed. At that time, Yuanxing, a fake monk, said it nicely. He could eat three clean meat, but the three of them acted together, two of whom were vegetarians, which made him an exception.

"Isn't it easy to eat meat? But you never open your mouth, so you can only endure it yourself. Who will blame me?" Fang Qiwu was carrying two big bags on her back and walked up the mountain with an extremely beautiful little girl in her hand.

"Master Fang really won't go back with me? We will take care of you when we go back." Zhou Mo stood up and advised. After a few months of being together, the few people have become good friends, so he naturally reluctant to leave.

"I'm different from you, and it's useless to go back. Besides, I have to stay here to teach my disciples. You can't just accept the disciple and leave it alone, right?" Fang Qiwu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

As early as Hengshui City that night, Yuan Xing understood that she would not return to modern times, so he stopped persuading him and said together: "I hope the Taoist priest can take care of his health and everything goes well."

Fang Qiwu bowed and replied: "I'm thankful for my fellow Taoist comrades to deal with me this time, otherwise things wouldn't go so smoothly." She was about to part, and she didn't call Yuanxing casually, but she was much more solemn, calling her "Fellow Taoist".

After her friend Leng Mubai died of illness, she only had one disciple and one woman. She was weak in power. The old man of the Leng family was jealous of the benefits brought by his imperial merchant status and repeatedly suppressed and bullied. After receiving the news, Fang Qiwu naturally had to go south to maintain it. Later, he learned from the information that there was a strong local Guangjiao Temple intervening this time. She was of high seniority in the Shangqing Sect. If she joined rashly, it was very likely that this family snobbish battle would evolve into a dispute over Buddhism and Taoism. At that time, it would be a bloody storm.

Fortunately, Yuanxing relieved the danger of the Hengshui City earthquake at that time. Under some operation, his reputation as a monk has spread all over the country and issued an imperial edict. With him, a monk who could come to Beijing to meet a saint at any time, he could only accept it even if he was unwilling to accept it. Therefore, the orphan of Leng's family successfully became Fang Qiwu's disciple, joined the Shangqing Sect, and with the protection of the Taoist sect, the people in the Leng family who had to consider the matter in the future.

Yuan Xing smiled and said, "The temple should look like a temple. It is really ugly to compete for a little girl's property. I just did what I should do." In fact, at this time, I don't know how many people called him a Buddhist traitor in their hearts, but he was not from this world and was about to "ascend". Once the name of the monk is confirmed, all the scolding and criticism will disappear.

Fang Qiwu also smiled and handed the biggest burden behind him to Yuanxing: "These are what fellow Taoists want." He gave Zhou Mo a little smaller one and said, "Give a gift before parting." The two of them were not polite and took it.

"It's a matter of this, I will take my apprentice back to the Shangqing Sect. I may stay for a long time this time." Fang Qiwu sighed and turned to the girl beside him, with gentle eyes in her eyes.

Yuan Xing saw this but his eyes were complicated. Miao Xu's words flashed through his mind: "It is said that the Taoist priest almost became my master's wife at that time, but for some reason, they broke up, one married another, and the other became a monk..."

If what Miao Xu said is true, then isn’t this little girl the daughter of Taoist Fang’s “love rival”? But the situation is not similar. Is it a love house and a wu?

Just when the Bagua fire in his mind was burning strongly, the time Jin Chan said was coming, and a light gate appeared in front of each of them.

He was about to step in with Zhou Mo, but he was stopped by Fang Qiwu.

But she saw her take out a few pieces of broken jade from her arms and hand it over.

"Is this?" Yuan Xing did not reach out to take it. In the sunlight, these broken jades emitted a soft light, which looked extraordinary.

"This is Xuanyuan Baoyu, which is said to have incredible power, and fellow Taoists may be able to use it." Fang Qiwu's tone was faint, as if he was talking about something very ordinary.

"Come on, these jades contain very high energy, and my recovery speed will be much faster." Jin Chan seemed quite anxious this time, and the words appeared very quickly.

Yuan Xing's expression never changed. After thinking about it, he shook his head and refused: "I heard that donor Miao mentioned this kind of thing. It is said that the Taoist priest ran around the north to collect this thing. Obviously, this Xuanyuan Baoyu is very important to the Taoist priest, and I cannot accept it."

Fang Qiwu was stunned for a moment. Seeing that he was firm in his tone, he seemed to really not want it and no longer force it.

"You are stupid. With this thing, I can instantly improve your abilities." Jin Chan seemed furious this time.

Yuan Xing lowered his eyes, snorted coldly, and replied in his heart: "The three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance are the root of evil. I only believe in the skills I have learned. Is it the right way for my Buddhist teachings to rely on the improvement of external objects?"

After that, no matter what Jin Chan said, he ignored it and nodded to Zhou Mo. The two of them walked into the light gate in front of them at the same time.

At this time, the light gate just emerged at the foot of the mountain, causing a commotion. After Yuan Xing and the others entered the stage and disappeared completely, they were all stunned, and some even knelt down devoutly.
