Chapter 199: Qing Xingdeng: I Enlightened on the Ice Lake When Heimiya Chiye arrived at the temple, it was already 6:15 in the evening. Ruyi was preparing vegetarian dinner for tonight, and Takeda Saburo was helping him. Outside the courtyard, under the big banyan tree, Akechi Mitsuhide and Hiratani Shuichi were setting up the dining table and chairs. "Ping Gong, long time no see!" Seeing the figure of Hiramiya Chiya appear, Akechi Mitsuhide came up to him with a smile, and Hiramiya Chiya smiled and chatted with him about his recent situation. After chatting for a while, Pinggu Shuichi interrupted. "Last time I asked you to go to Kyoto with me, but you were unwilling. But you will not be able to witness the magnificent battle of Kyoto." "At that time, I was busy practicing and had no desire to go out and play." Akechi Mitsuhide scratched his head, came to Pinggong Qianye and asked in a low voice: "Pinggong, the book "The Joyful Offering of the Great Sage" you gave me last time is indeed extremely profound, but the more I practice, the more I like to practice. I can't get interested in other things. I just stay at home and practice every day. Even my parents think I'm a different person." "Don't stand there, sit down first and talk about it." Pinggu Shuichi asked Pinggong Qianye and Akechi Mitsuhide to sit down, and he also came over and said with a smile: "I am very curious about this "Great Sage Joyful Offering Method". What is the special method that can make this guy like a reincarnation in such a short time."
Apart from the fact that they didn't get along with each other in the beginning, now they are the two closest to each other. Hideichi Hiratani witnessed with his own eyes how Mitsuhide Akechi made breakthroughs in his cultivation step by step. "The Great Sage's Joyful Offerings is a practice that uses desire to control desire." Pinggong Qianye introduced the technique slowly in a calm tone, "Initially, this technique was based on the dual cultivation of men and women. The so-called joyful cultivation refers to sexual intercourse between men and women, which can make people feel happy due to desire." Hearing this, Hiratani Shuichi gently bumped his shoulder against Akechi Mitsuhide's, his eyes full of mockery. "But I always feel that indulging in desires is not a good way to practice." Pinggong Qianye smiled brightly, "So I modified this practice method a little bit." "I deleted the methods related to dual cultivation between men and women and filled them with some moderate and peaceful methods, so that your desire to practice can overwhelm other uncontrollable desires in your heart. This is also in line with the concept of controlling desire with desire." "In this way, the more you practice and the more advanced your cultivation becomes, your desires in other areas will decrease accordingly, thus forming a positive cycle." "After you have cultivated to a high level, you will have no desires and will enter the realm of a bodhisattva." Akechi Mitsuhide looked bewildered, then smiled bitterly. He couldn't say that he liked the original version of "The Great Sage's Joyful Offering" better, right? But Master Liansheng was so considerate of himself... He really cried to death... "Hahaha……" As soon as Hirayama Hideichi looked at Mitsuhide Akechi's expression, he knew what he was thinking at the moment and couldn't help laughing out loud. "Although that method is good, it is not suitable for us serious Buddhists after all." Pinggong Qianye said with a smile. "..." Akechi Mitsuhide's face became even more worried, but he just liked this unorthodox way of practicing! "Thank you Master Liansheng for thinking so much about me..." Akechi Mitsuhide finally thanked with a bitter face. In the following time, Heimiya Chiye introduced and explained to Akechi Mitsuhide the practice method of "The Great Sage's Joyful Offering Method". This book "The Great Sage's Joyful Offering Method" was revised and compiled by him. Although he did not practice it, he still understood the secrets of practice better than Akechi Mitsuhide. After chatting for a while, Takeda Saburo and Ruyi brought out the vegetarian meal, which consisted of six dishes and many vegetarian buns.
I know that Master Liansheng has a bigger appetite than most people, and he must be hungry after resting all day today. A total of five steamed vegetarian buns were steamed, with twelve buns in each steamer. A normal person can basically be full by eating one steamer of vegetarian buns with a bowl of soup. "Master Liansheng, the Luohan vegetarian dish cooked by Ruyi is a delicacy." Takeda Saburo introduced as he distributed bowls and chopsticks. Ruyi smiled shyly and said, "I don't know if my cooking skills are good." Pinggong Qianye ate a vegetarian bun first, then picked up a piece of vegetarian dish from Luohanzhai with chopsticks and tasted it carefully. Looking at the unconfident Ruyi, he said earnestly: "Please keep persevering, you are very talented in cooking!" "Is it really that exaggerated?" Akechi Mitsuhide also tried to pick up a piece with chopsticks to taste it, and after a moment of silence, he picked up a few more pieces with chopsticks. "It tastes really good. The level of vegetarian chefs in other restaurants is basically like this." Mitsuhide Akechi gave a high evaluation. Pinggu Shuichi smiled and pulled Ruyi to sit next to him, and said in a low voice: "There are not many things that can interest Master Liansheng, you must seize the opportunity." "I will continue to work hard in the future!" Ruyi's eyes brightened instantly. As the saying goes, if you want to win a man's heart, you must first win his stomach. This sentence should also apply to Master Liansheng. Pinggong Qianye could naturally hear their hushed conversation. He ate another vegetarian bun and said with a smile, "I'll find a chance to get you a book on how to cultivate your culinary skills through cooking." He always felt that as the Weilian Ancient Temple gradually expanded, it would need to add some monks, the most important of whom would be the chef in charge of the kitchen. Ruyi is obviously very talented in cooking. After the meal, Ruyi and Takeda Saburo began to clean up the dishes, while Akechi Mitsuhide and Hiratani Hideichi went to feed Umibozu. Hiramiya Chiya came to the main hall and worshipped and burned incense for Mahavairocana. Then he took out the bright lamp and placed it on the altar. After thinking for a while, he took out the heart-shaped relic that he had obtained from Anping Temple. The sarira is naturally a good thing, but he himself does not need it very much, nor does he need to rely on the sarira to help him fight the enemy. Since that Buddhist girl had a different mind when she was born, she could be baptized again with this relic. I believe it would allow her to be truly reborn. This can be regarded as a gift from me in return for her many times of protecting Weilian Ancient Temple. When the relics were placed in front of the statue of Vairocana Buddha, the originally white bone substance actually began to change gradually. On the surface of the relic, there is a circle of light red flames. The flame was not fierce, but rather peaceful, without any trace of violence. As the flames continued to burn, the white bone surface of the relic gradually melted and fell off. Ruyi, Takeda Saburo and others who came later clearly saw that under the gaze of Vairocana Tathagata, the relic was beating like a bright red heart. …… Mount Fuji, deep in the icy lake at the top of the mountain.
A piece of solid ice was suspended in it, and Qing Xingdeng was practicing seriously inside. She had always hated the boring training process, but recently, the experience of being suddenly and uncontrollably teleported to the Weilian Ancient Temple to work as a nanny taught her a truth. If you lag behind in cultivation, you will be beaten! The reason why she was bullied by the evil monk was because she was not strong enough, so she was suppressed! The reason why she couldn't get back half of her body was because she wasn't strong enough to break into the temple and take back the body! She was teleported uncontrollably many times, which told her clearly that monsters with low cultivation level could only be ordered around at will! Now, she has gained enlightenment in the ice lake and has understood the truth that the strong are respected in this world. Sooner or later, one day, she will realize that this day will no longer cover her eyes, and she wants that evil monk to kneel at her feet and sing "Conquer"! She also wants to... Qing Xingdeng, who was in the state of cultivation, suddenly shuddered, which made her wake up all of a sudden. A familiar feeling was creeping up her back. It’s the breath of that evil monk! That evil monk wants to humiliate me again! Okay, today we will settle all the new and old grudges together! Qing Xingdeng used all of his demonic power to blast the ice apart. His figure floated up and floated above the icy lake. The demonic power surged all over his body, and the entire ice lake began to stir, with waves several feet high. Hu Hu Hu. The strong wind brought heavy snow, and the Snow Girl was disturbed by the abnormality here. Below, on the icy lake, Qing Xingdeng's wild demonic power was surging wantonly, his pretty face was as if facing a formidable enemy, and even his eyes were tinged with a hint of green light. "Evil monk, come out, I will defeat you fairly this time!" Qing Xingdeng spoke confidently and with a proud attitude. During this period, her cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds, even Sister Snow Girl was amazed! However, the familiar Buddha's fire once again climbed up her back, burning violently. "Hehe, I am now immune to the Buddha's fire!" Qing Xingdeng sneered with disdain, trying to absorb the Buddha's fire that came across the border from the evil monk, but the result was that he was unable to shake it. Her enormous demonic power was instantly defeated by the blazing Buddha fire. In a flash, the Buddha's fire spread to every part of her body as it always did. "Sister Snow Girl, save me!" As soon as Qing Xingdeng shouted, his whole body was pulled and his consciousness left his body instantly. The burning Buddha's fire burned Qingxingdeng's clothes and then quietly dissipated. Qingxingdeng's figure fell powerlessly into the icy lake. "Ugh."
The Snow Girl sighed, raised her hand, and the lake water turned into ice, once again freezing the Qingxuandeng deep in the lake. Having seen Qingxuandeng suffer similar fates many times, a sense of doubt arose in my mind. Why did that monk always like to burn all of Qingxuandeng’s clothes? Does this action have any special symbolism? (End of this chapter)
