Frightened out of ones wits

  Frightened out of one's wits

  Wan Yu's gaze was gentle, tightly holding Hui Ling's hand, with a faint smile on her lips, no resentment or regret, just calmly and rationally searching for the most suitable path for herself.

  Huiling saw the fourth prince coming and quickly lowered her head to secretly wipe away the corners of her eyes, then lifted her head again with a full face of smiles, restoring her former lively spirit, her smile still sunny and lovely.

  "What are you talking about? You seem so happy." Rui Cheng looked at Yuanyu with a puzzled expression, feeling as if he had missed something.

  Wan Yu splashed water on him, lifted her chin with a coquettish and willful expression, "Girls' whispers should also be listened to, don't be shy. Help me get the little fish over here." She naturally instructed him to fetch the fish bucket.

  Rui Cheng didn't get angry, he glared at her and personally went to lift the fish bucket, releasing the small fish inside.

  Zhang Yun and Lige sat in the pavilion, gazing far away with a hint of melancholy in their eyes. Lige nudged him, his gaze filled with concern and complex emotions.

  Zhang Yun turned around and forced a smile, then suddenly patted his shoulder and laughed: "Come on, let's go exchange a few blows."

  Lige burst out laughing, "Leave then, you're no match for me."

  Zhang Yun's eyes widened in anger, "I was being nice to you."

  "Cut it." Ligei curled his lip in disdain, and the two brothers ran to the empty space in the woods to exercise their muscles, exchanging blows and sweating, which would also improve their mood.

  Rui Cheng couldn't help but glance over at Lige's side, the two of them were enthusiastically punching and kicking each other, their lips curled up into a slight smile.

  Qige suddenly appeared and said, "How about we exchange a couple of moves?"

  Rui Cheng couldn't help but roll his eyes and was about to say something when Yuwen looked over with a puzzled expression, her worried gaze making him feel uneasy. It's as if she thought he would bully her brother, but in reality, it's always the other way around - every time, it's him who gets beaten to the ground and can't get up. Who's bullying who, anyway?

  "Tomorrow at Hui Feng Building for roast duck, I'll treat." Rui Cheng said calmly.

  "Alright, I'll let you off this time, Dugu Qiubei," said Qige, nodding his head and stroking his chin. He then walked away with a smug look on his face, hands clasped behind his back.

  Rui Cheng let out a sigh of relief, every time he was pressed down and beaten, it was so humiliating. Fighting with martial arts geniuses was too annoying. Fortunately, he wasn't the only one who got pressed down and beaten, this little guy had basically fought all the noble sons in the capital and almost never met an opponent.

  Wen Yu saw Rui Cheng approaching and asked: "What were you just talking about?"

  "I didn't say anything, I'll invite him for dinner tomorrow." Rui Cheng took some fish food to feed the goldfish.

  Wan Yu furrowed her brow, "Don't let him get too excited, keep a tight rein on him. If he gets careless again and causes more trouble, it'll be unbearable."

  She was clear about her brother's martial arts skills, and if he were to be serious, few young men would be his match. Now what her brother lacked was experience, after years of nurturing, her brother's body had already reached the boundary of innate talent.

  This is also why Father wants Brother to take the path of a martial general and make the Murong family prosperous.

  Rui Cheng knew that Wan Yu cared most about this brother, so he also nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, this kid understands in his heart, and nothing big will happen with me watching."

  Wan Yu puckered her mouth in displeasure, "It'll be too late once something happens."

  "He won't be able to play for much longer, I heard my uncle's plan is to send him to a military camp next year to discipline him, so he won't cause trouble for the young masters in the capital." Rui Cheng smiled secretly, someone who had also been beaten and tasted the iron fist was still in a good mood.

  Wan Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, having a place to restrain him, she was also relieved in her heart, she just feared that her brother would become arrogant and lose his humility, which would be terrible.

  Rui Cheng found it strange, "Aren't you worried about your brother getting hurt?"

  Wan Yu smiled complacently and said, "Unless he himself is not careful, it's hard for anyone to harm him. In my heart, I still hope he goes out to broaden his horizons, a man should have a broad vision and mind. The army is a man's world, where one can learn how to be a real man." She turned her head to look at Qi Ge, who was jumping up and down cheering for Li Ge, with eyes full of warmth and dependence.

  Rui Cheng suddenly realized that perhaps Qi Ge's importance to Wan Yu was far deeper than he had thought. It seemed that he should take Qi Ge more seriously.

  Wan Yu and Hui Ling were chatting and laughing together, before long several girls were laughing and playing together again, having a great time.

  At this time a young monk walked over with his hands clasped together, "Donor, Master Jueyuan invites the young lady of the Murong estate to come in and have a cup of tea."

  Wan Yu looked around in surprise, as if she was talking about herself. Rui Cheng's face showed a look of surprise, and he quickly pushed Wan Yu, "What are you still dazed for? It's really you! Master Jue Yuan rarely sees outsiders, I'm also lucky to have seen him once with the emperor, you're really lucky."

  Wan Yu's face turned pale, and she didn't know why, but she felt like her identity was going to be discovered, and she panicked.

  Perhaps sensing her nervousness and panic, Rui Cheng smiled reassuringly at her, "Don't worry, Master Jueyuan is very kind and a highly enlightened monk who has long since abandoned worldly attachments, devoting himself to Buddhist rituals. You just go boldly, I'll take care of everything."

  Wan Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm down, thinking that she hadn't done anything wrong and hadn't disrupted the natural order of things, so there was no reason for her to be taken away.

  Wanyu looked at Xiaoshami and said, "Please lead the way."

  As she passed by the pavilion, the old lady also had a proud look on her face and patted her hand, saying: "Good child, I knew you were a lucky one. Don't be afraid, the master is very kind, just listen carefully."

  Wan Yu nodded, her heart filled with bitter laughter, and she didn't know if the master would destroy her or not. Her palms were slightly sweaty, it seemed that her mental state was still not cultivated enough.

  Xiaoyi led her to a very ordinary room and said with his head down, "Master Jueyuan is inside, please enter, I won't go in." After finishing speaking, he left.

  Wan Yu stood outside the door of the room, paused for a moment, secretly encouraged herself, plucked up her courage and pushed open the door, stepping inside step by step.

  The room was simply furnished with a tea table and two bamboo chairs. A stick of incense was lit in the corner, filling the air with a wisp of fragrance.

  A benevolent-looking monk with a slightly plump appearance sat on one side of the tea table, exuding an aura of good fortune. His smile was gentle and warm, radiating kindness, while his eyes shone with wisdom and intelligence.

  Wanyu knelt on the cushion, saw Zhenren and calmed down in her heart, no longer feeling anxious, her eyes looked straight at the great master, smiling: "Master, what is the purpose of calling me here?"

  Master Yuandai stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of invitation, "Please have a cup of tea."

  Wanyu's eyes narrowed in suspicion, was it just a cup of tea?

  Master Yuanyan slowly washed and brewed tea, with a small range of motion, very elegant and smooth, with a special charm, looking very comfortable and beautiful.

  "Please, try some of the tea I've brewed."

  Wan Yu had come, so she decided to go with the flow. She picked up her cup and took a light sip. Her eyes suddenly lit up, "This is hundred-year-old pine needle tea made from snow water, it's refreshing and fragrant, good tea."

  "What brings you here, donor?" asked Master Jueyuan with a smile.

  Wan Yu was certain that he knew his identity at this moment, but she was not afraid now. She could have taken action long ago and didn't need to wait until now.

  "Born for the world." Yuwen paused for a moment and thought for a long time before answering seriously.

  "What has not entered the world?" Zuo Yu asked again.

  Wanyu thought for a long time, wondering why she came here. After thinking for a long time, she raised her head and saw a couplet hanging in the wing room, with the words "Follow your heart". She lowered her head and meditated for a long time before speaking: "Going with the flow, yes, this is my way."

  Finally, after enduring for thousands of years, Wanyu finally understood her own way, following the natural order, the natural way.

  A burst of spiritual light rose from Yuwen's body, a faint blue color like smoke enveloped her. After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Yuwen woke up again, her face rosy, her aura even more ethereal and light, her eyes shining with a brilliant and dazzling light that captivated people's attention.

  Wanyu bowed her head and saluted with a deep bow, "Thank you, Master, for your teachings."

  Master Yuandai smiled kindly and waved his hand, "This humble monk has no merit, it's all thanks to the patron's innate talent. Remember to be kind at heart, it's not easy for the patron to cultivate, with a clear and pure air, don't get stained by evil deeds and ruin your thousand-year Taoist practice. How about this, I've worn this Buddhist rosary for many years, I'll give it to you as a keepsake." As he spoke, he took off a string of golden Vajra beads from his hand.

  The rosary has been played for many years, showing a reddish and oily luster. The Bodhi seed on it no longer has any ridges, just by looking at it, you can tell that it's an old thing that has been played with for over several decades, and there is a faint golden light emanating from it, reminiscent of Buddhist temples.

  Wanyu had cultivated for a thousand years and was fortunate enough to have practiced in the Dragon Clan's Sacred Lake, so she had naturally seen many good things. Such Bodhi was really rare in the mortal world, so her face was full of surprise, "This is too precious, I..."

  Jueyuan smiled kindly, "Monks and laymen are kind to each other. I just want to make a good connection with fellow Taoists. If the Huangjue Temple encounters difficulties in the future, I hope that the donor can provide some help when they have the ability."

  Wan Yu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded solemnly, "The kindness of the reminder Wan Yu dare not forget, in the future if I have the ability I will definitely not forget. This is my heartfelt intention as an exchange, and I hope the master will not decline." As she spoke, her hands flashed and there was an extra green lotus seed in her hand, with a pure aura.

  Jue Yuan saw the lotus seed and also showed a surprised expression, chanting a long Buddha's name, "Amitabha! Good, good!" Closed his eyes for a long time without opening them.

  Wan Yu smiled slightly, "I know the master is just one step away from ascending to heaven. The master has a hint of kindness towards me, I'd like to offer a lotus seed to the master as a token of goodwill."

  Jue Yuan nodded slowly, put away the lotus seed and pushed another thing into his hand. "This is a sarira, it was given to me by my master. Now that I have received your gift, I will give you this sarira, which can save your life at a critical moment."

  Wanyu this time did not decline, happily put the bracelet on her wrist, and carefully put the sarira into space for preservation.

  Jueyuan began to close his eyes and recite scriptures. "You can go now, after a few days I will leave the temple and travel around the world."

  Wanyu clasped her hands together and bowed again, "I thank you, Master." She said, then slowly backed out of the room.

  Outside the house, a group of people stood far away. The old lady was still worried and stood in the pavilion with Li Shi and Wan Yi supporting her, constantly looking around with a face full of anxiety and worry.

  Thank you, members! I'm not crazy, how can I become a Buddha? Wu Su Mo Er, Superworld, Shi Qi Yue Yan's reward, the most distant reward of coffee, Amanda828's PK ticket reward. Thank you very much for everyone's support! Today is double update, tomorrow is scheduled to be Little Pink.
