/p> Beilu and Beichu are just separated by a long river.

Lingwu is one of the four famous mountains in the world, Dongyue, Nanlu, Xihua and Beifeng.

The north peak is located at the junction of the Qingqiu Dynasty and the Zhao State, Xihua is in the territory of the Great Qin Dynasty, and the Dongyue Mountain is at the border of the Wei State at the northern foothills, which is the location of the Seeking Dao Sect, and then it is the Southern Lu.

There is another reason why Nanlu is famous.

The Golden Cicada Temple, a holy place in Buddhism, is located on Nanlu Mountain.

If you want to go to Beichu Tiangully, you have to pass through the Golden Cicada Temple, Xiao Yao felt that since he came, it was not bad to go up the mountain to see the little monk Xu Suguan.

It's just a simple visit.

On the way, Xiao Yao also enjoyed the scenery of Northern Chu.

Relatively speaking, the terrain of Northern Chu is wider than that of Southern Chu, and the military strength is slightly stronger.

But because Southern Chu and Northern Chu were originally one country, the Chu State, but it was split later, so it was not much stronger to be strong. There are constant small frictions between Southern Chu and Northern Chu, but if you want to start a full-scale war, it has been impossible in recent years, after all, it has not been long since the situation between the two countries stabilized, if the fight starts now, it will have to be turbulent, even if it wins, it will give neighboring countries a chance to take advantage of, such a stupid thing, no one wants to do it.

Another reason is that whether it is Southern Chu or Northern Chu, they don't have much confidence in being able to eat each other, so they can only wait quietly for the opportunity.

Of course, these things have nothing to do with Xiao Yao, and he didn't think about having to mix with Southern Chu and Northern Chu, of course, but he didn't have this idea for the time being, which doesn't mean that he won't have this idea in the future.

Thinking of these, Xiao Yao thought of an interesting person, Li Xiongshan.

Before Xiao Yao and Wu Wutong met a group of horse thieves when they were in Jiang Guo, the leader of the horse thieves was called Li Xiongshan, or a descendant of the former Tiger Army of Jiang Guo, and the two also made an agreement, when Li Xiongshan had 20,000 people in his hands, Xiao Yao would help him restore the country, in fact, at that time, he just said casually, what if there is really such an opportunity? Now I don't know what happened to Li Xiongshan, of course, Xiao Yao will not deliberately ask, not to mention how difficult it is to win over 20,000 people with Li Xiongshan's ability, even if Li Xiongshan really has 20,000 people, Xiao Yao may not be able to help him restore the country.

After all, Jiang Guo's masters are still much more than those in the northern foothills, and there seem to be three of the five masters, this is still what Li Xiongshan said, as for whether this is the case, Xiao Yao is not sure.

After arriving in Northern Chu, Xiao Yao also entered a relaxed state, crossing the border line, and it was not very far from Nanlu Mountain.

No matter when, there are a lot of tourists on Nanlu Mountain, the Lingwu world was originally Buddhism prevailed, the Golden Cicada Temple is a Buddhist holy place again, there are countless tourists and devout believers, and the stone steps do not know how many pieces to be trampled on in a year.

Walking on the mountain road of Nanlu Mountain, Xiao Yao found that the aura of Nanlu Mountain is very pure, which seems to contain a breath that Xiao Yao has never encountered before, which makes people feel very gentle, and the whole person's state of mind will calm down.

Of course, this is all Xiao Yao's speculation, after all, he doesn't know much about Buddhism.

As I walked, I met an interesting old man.

"Young man, you also come to worship the Buddha?" the old man and Xiao Yao asked as they walked side by side, probably thinking that walking on the mountain road was too boring, so they wanted to find a companion to chat.

"Well, by the way, I visited a good friend. Xiao Yao glanced at the old man and said with a smile.

The other party's age is probably about seventy years old, of course, this is only a visual inspection.

He has a trekking pole in his hand, and he always has a smile on his face, which makes people feel like they can't refuse to chat. "Are you from Jiang Guo?" the old man continued.

Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment, and then understood that the reason why the other party had such a guess must be because of his short hair, in fact, in the past two years, Xiao Yao's short hair has also generated long hair, but compared with people in the Lingwu world, it is still relatively short, a bit like the previous idol drama F4.

"Yes. Xiao Yao said along the pole.

In addition to saying this, Xiao Yao didn't know what kind of person he was, anyway, the other party asked like this, so he didn't have to be serious.

"Hah, then you've been in a hurry. The old man smiled and said, "Do you believe in Buddhism?"

"Believe it or not. Xiao Yao thought about it and gave such an answer.

"Oh?" the old man seemed interested in Xiao Yao's answer, and asked, "What do you say?"

Xiao Yao said with a smile: "Maybe I believe in the existence of heavenly gods and Buddhas, but I definitely don't feel that my fate is to be held in their hands." ”

The old man laughed.

"Are you an immortal cultivator?"

"Yes. Xiao Yao nodded.

"Then it's no wonder, I've seen a lot of immortal cultivators, they all think like this, but even if they are immortal cultivators, they may not be able to escape the arrangement of this heavenly way, and they can't face up to the heavenly Buddhas. The old man said, "They all want to hold their fate in their own hands, but in the end, they find that the most difficult thing in the world is to control their own destiny." ”

Xiao Yao nodded and did not refute.

"Do you think I have a point?" asked the old man.

Xiao Yao said with a smile: "If you think it makes sense, it makes sense, and you don't need me to agree." ”

"That's thinking I'm talking nonsense. The old man said with a smile.

Xiao Yao thought to himself, this is also an understanding person.

"Do you know Xu Suguan?" the old man continued.

"You know, born a Buddha. Xiao Yao said.

"Yes, you say, why do some people have such good lives and are born with the body of a Buddha?" the old man asked with a smile, "How many immortal cultivators are there in the Lingwu World?"

Xiao Yao asked curiously, "Why does it have to be fair?"

"Huh?" the old man was slightly stunned.

"Fairness is not necessarily a good thing, if everything has to be fair, the world may not be so beautiful. Xiao Yao said calmly, "In fact, there are some things that seem to be unfair, and they may not be really unfair, Biru, some people are born princes, but after the crown prince ascends the throne, how many princes have died, and how many have been exiled for thousands of miles?"

The old man narrowed his eyes and said, "There is nothing wrong with such an idea. ”

"I don't want that, there's nothing better in my world than to be with my family. Xiao Yao raised his head and looked at the mountain road and said.

When he reached the top of the mountain, the old man stopped, looked at Xiao Yao, and said, "You go up the mountain, can you ask for something?"

"Nope. Xiao Yao said, "I don't ask for Buddha, I don't ask for God, because they can't help me, and in the end only I can help myself, and it's better to ask for others than myself." ”

"Haha, interesting. The old man laughed and turned to leave.

Xiao Yao looked at the old man's back and laughed.

He thought that this old man was more interesting.

At this moment, a hand suddenly slapped on his shoulder.

Xiao Yao turned his face and saw Xu Suguan.

"Coming?" asked Xu Suguan.

Xiao Yao nodded: "You know I'm coming?"

"I had a hunch before, so I came out and waited. Xu Suguan said with a smile.

Xiao Yao looked around and said, "It's you everywhere, you just walked out like this, not afraid of being entangled?"

"Haha, come to Nanlu Mountain a few more times in the future, and you will know that no one will pester me. Xu Suguan said with a smile.

"Why?"

"Because no matter what others ask me, I keep my mouth shut, and after a long time, they also know that although Xu Suguan was born as a Buddha, he loves to practice closed-mouth meditation, so they simply ignore me. Xu Suguan also sighed when he said this, and said, "Actually, this is not my original intention, it's just that my master said that my ears are soft, and if I open my mouth, it will not be easy to stop. ”

Xiao Yao nodded and said, "Your master's words are all university questions. ”

"The old man before, who went up the mountain with you?" Xu Suguan asked again.

"Hmm. Xiao Yao said, "I always feel that he is not simple." ”

"Lingwu is the world's No. 1 Confucian. Xu Suguan said, "I am about to become a Confucian general." ”

"Confucian general?" Xiao Yao was stunned.

"Confucianism into the Tao, yesterday holding the sage book ** mortal fetus, tomorrow may be cast the supreme Confucian general's body, there is no specific cultivation, you can achieve heaven and man, you can fly into the fairy gate, one day pass, all the laws are passed. Xu Suguan said with a smile.

Xiao Yao was a little surprised.

"Said: The road is the same, probably that's what it means. Xu Suguan said.

Xiao Yao said: "No wonder I always feel that something is wrong with that old man. ”

"Let's go, I'll take you to see the Golden Cicada Temple, but let's say it first, if you are chased and killed in the future, you are not allowed to hide in the Golden Cicada Temple. The little monk Xu Suguan said seriously.

"Why?" Xiao Yao asked.

"I'm afraid of being affected by you. Xu Suguan whispered.

Xiao Yao: "......"

Do you need to be so honest?

He regretted asking.

Xu Suguan laughed and said, "Just kidding, if you really get into trouble, you can hide here, don't dare to say anything else, but in the Golden Cicada Temple, I won't let people bully you." ”

Xiao Yaole said: "With your words, I will be full of courage in the future." ”

Xu Suguan said: "You were originally full of guts - enter the temple." ”

Entering the Golden Cicada Temple, as the outside world says, the incense here is prosperous.

Following Xu Suguan, Xiao Yao entered his meditation room.

On the way, I met many monks, and when I saw Xu Suguan, I had to fold my hands and bow.

"Why did you come to Beichu this time?" asked Xu Suguan, who was sitting on a futon, and Xiao Yao was reluctant to stand, so he sat down with Xu Suguan.

"Go to Beichu Tiangully to have a look. Xiao Yao said, "By the way, improve your cultivation." ”

"Xiao Yao, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it!" Xu Suguan said seriously.

Xiao Yao smiled bitterly: "Actually, I don't want to be in such a hurry, but do you think I can have as much time?"

"I'll go with you?" asked Xu Suguan.

Xiao Yao waved his hand: "I won't trouble you, and if you really go with me, I want to break through, but it will be more difficult." ”

"There are ninefold spirit beasts in the Northern Chu Heavenly Gully, which are about to soar, and you may have a good chance to go this time. Xu Suguan said.

Xiao Yao was taken aback.

Spirit beasts?

Kuju?

Soaring?

That's big news!

"Do you know more?"

"As far as I know, oh, it's not right, Xuanyuan Jiuju may be able to count it, but he's not interested in that. Xu Suguan said with a smile.
