Chapter 404: Emei School
Before dawn, Ning Tao climbed up the steps among a group of tourists, climbing to the golden summit of Mount Emei.
Emei is beautiful in the world and has been a famous mountain since ancient times.
But Ning Tao didn't feel how beautiful it was, but the densely packed heads made him feel quite magnificent.
In the early winter season, the temperature on the mountain was very low, coupled with the rain, a thin layer of ice formed on the stone steps, making it slippery every step. There are shops selling disposable non-slip shoe covers along the road, as well as those selling boiled bacon and grilled sausages, which is very lively.
The Chinese like to be lively. It doesn’t matter whether the scenery is beautiful or not. The important thing is that there are many people. You have to queue for an hour to go to the toilet.
When we climbed to the Golden Summit, it was just dawn. A ray of golden light pierced the sky and shone on the golden roof of Huazang Temple. In an instant, the golden light was so bright that the whole sky seemed to be covered with a layer of gold powder. The Samantabhadra Bodhisattva riding an elephant has a dignified appearance, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, which can make people feel peaceful.
Many people were worshiping Puxian Bodhisattva, Ning Tao just looked at it and walked over.
It stands to reason that to become the owner of the Tianwai Clinic and cultivate the way of heaven, he should believe in ghosts and gods, but what he believes in is not the gods made by craftsmen, nor the ghosts in the world's legends.
Stepping past Samantabhadra Bodhisattva riding an elephant on the square, Ning Tao walked towards the Sun Observation Terrace behind Huazang Temple. His eyes were also looking for the figure of compassion among the crowd, and he said secretly: "This is Mount Emei, yes, But is this the base camp of the Emei Sect? If so, why are there so many tourists every day, and the masters of the Emei Sect practice so hard? If not, where is it?"
"Doctor Ning." A friendly voice came from the side.
Ning Tao looked away, and at a glance, he saw the compassionate and smiling teacher standing in front of a canteen. The gray monk robe and the gray monk hat wrapped around the head are loose and simple, but they also reveal a graceful figure, which looks very seductive.
The owner of the canteen gave Ci Xin a corn cob,
Ci Xin paid the money, and trotted towards Ning Tao with the corn on the cob.
Ning Tao said: "Be careful, there is ice on the ground, slippery."
As soon as he said this, he remembered that he was also a cultivator, how could he be slipped by a piece of ice on the ground?
Compassion came to Ning Tao, handed the corn cob to Ning Tao, with a friendly smile on the corner of his mouth: "Doctor Ning, I'll eat it for you."
Ning Tao said with a smile: "I'm not hungry, you can eat."
Ci Xin grinned: "Then I won't be polite." After speaking, she grabbed the corn cob and took a bite, looking very intoxicated.
Women are naturally greedy and like food, but Buddhism is forbidden to eat meat, so she can buy a corn cob to satisfy her hunger.
Ning Tao looked around and lowered his voice: "Master Compassionate, where is Master?"
"Come with me." Ci Xin walked towards the Sun Observation Terrace, gnawing corn cobs at the same time, the speed of gnawing was obviously much faster.
The Sun Observation Terrace was crowded with tourists, each taking pictures with a mobile phone.
Lively, must be lively.
Ci Xin led Ning Tao around the Sun Observation Terrace, and walked on a narrow rocky mountain road.
Ning Tao followed Ci Xin and observed secretly. But in his field of vision, except for the verdant peaks and the clouds and mist that surround the peaks, there is no Emei school building at all. Finally, he gave up and secretly observed metta. Compassionate's back is slim and graceful, not to mention the beauty of being petite and exquisite
, a round buttocks, plump and upright. He only took one look and then looked away, thinking about guilt and guilt in his heart.
"Doctor Ning, I heard from a senior sister that Liu Shiba died and his flea market was closed. Is this true?" Ci Xin looked back at Ning Tao and asked.
Ning Tao said, "It's true."
"Who killed him?"
Ning Tao was about to say Haidongfang's name, but in the blink of an eye he had already atoned for his sins with death, and it was inappropriate to talk about his sins, so he said, "I don't know, but I opened a WeChat group, you If you are interested, you can join in. There are many Taoist friends in the group, who can buy and sell spiritual materials, and exchange cultivation skills and alchemy techniques. Sometimes I also ask for information on purchasing spiritual materials. You can hit me."
Compassionately, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "I want to go back and ask Master for instructions. Master doesn't allow us to play WeChat and Tik Tok, saying that it will disturb the Dao mind and delay our practice."
Ning Tao smiled: "It doesn't matter if you don't add it, there are indeed some fellow Taoists who like to talk nonsense, and some pictures that are not suitable for children will dirty your eyes. If you have anything to do, call me or send me a text message also."
Ci Xin nodded her head, and Ning Tao's "not suitable for children" made her cheeks blush slightly.
The two walked forward under the sunlight, and the mountain road became increasingly rough. After turning a bend, the golden roof was no longer visible.
A sign stands on the side of the road, which reads: Tourists stop.
Ci Xin didn't even look at it before stepping over the stone tablet and continuing to walk forward. Ning Tao followed her, and the mountain road began to descend. After walking another mile of mountain road, the mountain road at the foot broke down, and there was a cliff in front of me.
Ci Xin stood beside the cliff, with a sea of clouds and fog in front of her.
Ning Tao took a look with his head, but he saw nothing except the rolling clouds.
Compassionately said: "Our Emei Sect is right below. This Emei Mountain used to be our Emei Sect's property, but the master gave it away. The master said that monks should not kitsch to make money, so we moved down. We usually eat We grow rice and vegetables ourselves, and we wear cloth we weave ourselves."
Ning Tao praised: "Master Mie Xin is really noble, much better than the abbot of that monastery. If you want to make money, why bother to enter the Buddhist sect? Money is something outside the body, but the world can't always see through it."
Compassionately looked at Ning Tao, and couldn't hide the joy in her eyes: "Doctor Ning, I like to hear what you say, and I think my master also likes to hear it."
Ning Tao smiled: "Then we will keep in touch in the future and talk more."
Ci Xin's cheeks blushed again inexplicably, she suddenly remembered something, she hastily possessed herself, and reached out to grab a rope from the edge of the cliff.
The rope is not a steel rope, nor is it a hemp rope coated with tung oil, but a rope woven from plant vines, with leaves growing on it, and it still looks alive.
"Doctor Ning, we have to slide down, can you?" Ci Xin looked at Ning Tao with a little worry in her eyes.
Ning Tao said: "No problem, you go first, and I will follow behind you."
Ci Xin nodded her head, jumped up suddenly, and disappeared into the clouds in a blink of an eye.
Ning Tao stepped forward to grab the vine, and a kind of spiritual material called Babel Vine that he saw in "Compendium of Spiritual Materials" suddenly appeared in his mind.
The general value of alchemy, many low-level elixirs will use it, and it has the effect of expanding the meridians. It is said that the Tongtian vine can grow very tall, and it can grow into the heavenly palace. After all, legends are legends and cannot be regarded as true, but its alchemy value is recognized by the cultivation world.
Ning Tao didn't make a leap like Ci Xin did, he twisted his legs around the Tongtian Vine, then grasped the Tongtian Vine with both hands, loosened it and slid down slowly.
This slide lasted two to three kilometers, and the sky-reaching vine became thicker as it went down, until it became a towering tree, and Ning Tao had no problem running on it. It was only at this distance from the bottom that Ning Tao could clearly see what kind of place he had reached.
It is a miniature basin surrounded by mountains, with a temple in the middle and farmland, rivers and forests around it. The golden morning light swept across the sky, and the basin was surrounded by clouds and mist. It really felt like a paradise, a fairyland on earth.
Ning Tao also sensed the existence of aura, but it was very thin. But this is already very rare. You must know that there are very few places on the earth where there is spiritual energy. Those cultivators or monster races who do not have sects, or small sects, do not have the conditions to have such bases.
Ci Xin was already waiting under the vine, and there were a few nuns behind her, and one was holding Buddha dust, who seemed to have a certain status in the Emei Sect.
Ning Tao got down from the vine, imitating Master Fakong's movements: "Amitabha, hello, masters."
Several young nuns burst out laughing.
The middle-aged woman holding Buddha dust in her hand glared at the young nuns, who then closed their mouths.
Ci Xin introduced: "Doctor Ning, this is my senior sister, whose Dharma name is Ci En."
Ning Tao clasped his palms together: "Master Ci En, hello."
Ci'en proclaimed the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, hello, Dr. Ning."
Ci Xin introduced those young nuns to Ning Tao, and Ning Tao also said hello to them one by one. It was also in this process that Ning Tao learned that the Cizi generation in the Emei Sect is second only to Miexin Shitai's Miezi generation. He guessed that Ci Xin might be Mie Xin Shitai's closed disciple or something, just like the kind of closed disciple described in Xianxia novels.
Ci'en said: "Doctor Ning, you are our guest, but I still have to remind you. Please turn off your mobile phone, you cannot take pictures here, and please keep it a secret when you leave here in the future. We don’t want to be disturbed by the outside world.”
Ning Tao nodded: "I won't reveal a word, please rest assured."
"Okay then, please give me the phone for safekeeping." Ci'en stretched out her hand to Ning Tao.
Ning Tao smiled, took out his mobile phone and handed it to Ci'en.
Ci'en turned off Ning Tao's cell phone, put it away, and said, "Doctor Ning, please come with me."
Ning Tao followed a group of nuns.
A muddy path extends to the temple in the middle of the basin, and there are nuns working in the farmland beside the road, sowing, weeding, and picking. There are also nuns practicing kung fu in the forest, sword dancers, meditating and breathing on the canopy of trees, and those performing light kung fu and flying in the forest. The nun is integrated with this world, forming a picture scroll of its own. This picture scroll is natural and fresh, full of fairy flavor.
Those sentient beings who are busy with their livelihood from nine to five, have they ever experienced such a life?
Life is but a dream, and the vast majority of people will not wake up from sleep until they die.
