Chapter 498 Reincarnated Spirit Child 4
The true path lies in discerning right from wrong in one's heart!
This is saying that lamas are making trouble out of nothing and that their spiritual practice is insufficient.
Ren Yinyin felt she understood, and it made sense!
Achu and Xiaohai were punished for speaking out for justice, but this lama was not as virtuous and inactive as the Taoists; he was too vindictive.
"Uncle-Master, what do you mean by what you wrote?" Ah Xiu scratched her head, unable to understand.
Mao Xiaofang explained, "The right and wrong in one's heart is summed up in the word 'sorrow'!"
“I understand now. This means that even though you, Lama, are detached from worldly affairs, you must still have a compassionate heart!” Axiu realized.
Ren Yinyin pouted, "It's the same thing!"
Anyway, the lama is wrong!
……
Achu and Xiaohai rolled out in agony to find the lama again, while Ren Yinyin and Axiu chased after them.
Seeing this, Mao Xiaofang did not stop him. It's not wrong for a young man to be a little impetuous!
If anything goes wrong, isn't there still him, the senior apprentice, to help?
The two tumbled and rolled along, and the villagers on the street pointed and laughed, saying that they were practicing acrobatics.
Zhou Sanyuan, who was on patrol, saw this and asked Achu with a mocking tone, "What are you doing?"
"I'm practicing martial arts, you wouldn't understand!" A-Chu retorted stubbornly.
Xiao Hai didn't want to pay attention to Zhou Sanyuan; he just wanted to get rid of his restraints as soon as possible.
Zhou Sanyuan wanted to make a few more sarcastic remarks, but when he saw Ren Yinyin following behind, he immediately shut his mouth.
"Miss Ren is here too!" he greeted awkwardly.
Ren Yinyin glanced at him but didn't say anything.
Apart from Song Zilong, who is not bad, the rest of the police department are all good-for-nothings, especially Zhou Zhouyuan this week.
If it weren't for the black leather suit protecting him, he would have been stuffed into a sack long ago!
The four arrived outside the town and soon found the lama.
He had just come out of a villager's house when Ren Yinyin noticed that he ate the food the villager had brought him and even reached out to pat the head of a villager's child.
"May you be clever and quick-witted, and grow tall and strong!"
"Hey, old man, hurry up and untie us!" Ah Chu shouted rudely.
He was already short-tempered, and after being teased for so long, he was already burning with anger.
Besides, with his senior sister by his side, he was even less afraid!
"Master, please help us get out of this predicament!" Xiao Hai thought that since he was being controlled by someone else, he should lower his attitude and ask in a polite tone.
The lama, upon hearing their words, did not become angry. Instead, he clasped his hands together and chanted a Buddhist prayer, "Amitabha Buddha!"
"Hey, don't pretend you didn't hear me!"
"Master, my junior brother has writing on his back, you can take a look!"
The lama lifted Achu's shirt from behind, saw the line of small characters, and suddenly burst into laughter.
"I never expected that such a small place as Gantian Town would have such a master?"
After saying that, he reached out and pulled and pushed, separating Achu and Xiaohai, who fell heavily to the ground.
"You old bastard, are you trying to kill us?" Ah Chu cursed.
Xiao Hai's face also looked very unpleasant; this lama was so rude.
Upon seeing this, Ren Yinyin stepped forward and bowed, saying, "This junior is a disciple of Maoshan. May I ask where you come from, Master? And what brings you here?"
Courtesy first, then attack!
Upon seeing this, the lama returned the greeting, "You came from the Potala Palace. As for why you came to Gantian Town?"
"What does that have to do with you, young benefactor?"
"The master's ruthless actions seem to contradict the Buddhist principle of compassion!" Ren Yinyin wasn't angry; she had known all along that this old lama wasn't easy to get along with.
The lama snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, you Taoists shouldn't try to argue here. The Buddha's compassion is not something you can presume to know."
Ren Yinyin wasn't afraid of him and immediately retorted, "If you were compassionate, you wouldn't have hit people, burned fields, and made things difficult for Achu and Xiaohai."
The lama was so angry that he glared at her and slapped her, yelling, "Insolence from a junior!"
"Good heavens, do you think you're so polite?" Ren Yinyin wasn't stupid; she wouldn't fight back.
Just by looking at this lama's age, you can tell he's been practicing for much longer than her.
Ren Yinyin ducked to avoid it, and then kicked the lama in the knee.
The lama was surprised by the girl's quick reflexes and dodged the kick with a slight sway.
His eyes widened in anger, he chanted scriptures, formed hand seals, and a beam of golden light shot towards Ren Yinyin.
Ren Yinyin hurriedly drew her peach wood sword. The golden light struck the sword, making her arm go numb.
Achu and Xiaohai also got up from the ground and attacked the lama from the left and right.
The lama dodged their attacks with a swift movement, his hands moving rapidly like butterflies flitting among flowers, instantly striking their pressure points.
Ren Yinyin's face was icy cold, and she was about to attack again when she suddenly heard a loud shout: "Stop!"
Mao Xiaofang rushed over and stood in the middle.
"Master, when will this cycle of revenge end? Let's sit down and talk things over."
The lama snorted coldly, "So you're that expert?"
Mao Xiaofang cupped his hands and said, "I dare not accept such praise. I am Mao Xiaofang, and I hope the master will give me face."
The lama looked at Mao Xiaofang, then at Ren Yinyin and the others, and slowly said, "Alright, alright, for your sake, let's call it quits for today."
After saying that, he released the pressure points on Achu and Xiaohai, and turned to leave.
"Master!" Achu and Xiaohai lowered their heads in fear when they saw that Mao Xiaofang looked unwell.
"Yinyin, how did it feel to fight him?" Mao Xiaofang didn't look at Achu and Xiaohai, but looked at Ren Yinyin.
Ren Yinyin rubbed her numb wrist. "Uncle-Master, this lama and Atisha are both from the Potala Palace, but they seem to be from different groups!"
"It's too early to judge whether Atisha and the others are good or bad, but this lama shouldn't be a bad person!"
"Senior sister, were you knocked silly?" A-Chu was dumbfounded when she heard Ren Yinyin say this. "That lama is unreasonable, how could he be a good person?"
“That’s right, senior sister. Atisha and the others provided medical treatment and medicine, and built schools. They did all good things. How can they not be good people?” Xiao Hai was also puzzled.
In his view, a person's character can be seen from how they act!
Doing good deeds makes you a good person!
Ren Yinyin glared at the two of them. "This great lama is highly skilled, but he didn't use any deadly methods. He only used some mild and harmless techniques."
Mao Xiaofang nodded in agreement, "Yinyin is right, I can't figure out what Atisha and the others are trying to do!"
"But this person just now didn't mean any harm!"
"I wonder what this master's Dharma name is, and why he has come here!" Mao Xiaofang was somewhat worried. What was going to happen in Gantian Town that would bring so many lamas?
"Uncle-Master, do you think Atisha and his group building schools might be related to these children?" Ren Yinyin analyzed. "They've been here for so long, trying to win people over, but their ultimate goal is to teach children to read. I think there's something fishy going on here!"
“Maybe they just want to spread Buddhism!” Ah Xiu said. “Children are more innocent, and they think it will be more effective to talk about Buddhism with them!”
“No matter how much we speculate here, we can’t confirm it!” Mao Xiaofang paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. “Yinyin and Axiu, one of you is clever and quick-witted, and the other is quick-thinking and meticulous. You need to pay close attention to Atisha and the others’ movements!”
"Yes, Uncle-Master!" Ren Yinyin and Axiu replied at the same time.
Xiao Hai and A Chu rubbed their arms, exchanged a glance, and were relieved that their master hadn't assigned them any tasks.
Mao Xiaofang glanced at the relieved Achu and Xiaohai, and shook his head.
These two are so clumsy, they need more practice!
Not only is his Taoist magic inferior to that of a girl like Yin Yin, but his martial arts skills are also far inferior!
What a shame!
