Chapter 0005: The Precious Tree

She possesses extraordinary insight and an acute sense of perception, faintly sensing that Fa Kong is not speaking the truth

More importantly, Mingyue An has the Xijia Beiye Sutra

The small yellow flower, pure and delicate, adorned with a drop of dew, inexplicably brought him a sense of ease and emotion

Yes, indeed.

Master Fakong, you are using the Rejuvenation Spell, aren't you

The ancient tree, a thousand years old, has a crown resembling a giant umbrella, and its twisted, spiraling trunk requires two people to embrace it.

The monk straightened his body, his slender fingers forming mudras, and with his eyes slightly closed, he began to chant the Pure Heart Mantra

He secretly cursed the cunningness.

"But Miss Ning?"

Senior brother, the master invites you

"Bang" He felt as if his internal organs had turned over, and he was troubled in his chest, feeling nauseous

"Alright, I won't ask then," Ning Zhenzhen said, waving her delicate hand.

It is said that Master Fakong has surpassed Master Yaoli in his understanding of pharmacology, even to the extent that he is more accomplished than his predecessor.

Ning Zhenzhen blinked her enchanting phoenix-like eyes, her gaze landing on his slender fingers, feeling that the handprint he made was very familiar

However, these are fundamentally two different matters; the concept of emptiness in Buddhism is merely a distraction that confuses the audience

Fa Kong recited the Heart Purification Mantra twice and then concluded with: "Go ahead."

"Greetings, Senior Brother Fakong." Ning Zhenzhen smiled sweetly and clasped her hands together, saying, "Thank you for making the trip, Senior Brother."

I truly did not know that there was such a wonderful place at the Jingang Temple

From her words, he inferred that even without making an effort to cultivate the Taiyin Baoshu, simply requesting to pay a visit to admire the "Moonlight Bodhisattva Tonghui Sutra" would be met with approval by Mingyue An, contrary to what Master Huinan had claimed about it being so difficult

Ning Zhenzhen did not act like an outsider; she first took a stroll around the lake.

Having cured the Taiyin Baoshu, can I demand the Taiyin Xiaolian form from them and receive the transmission

Now, his facial features are sharper than those of ordinary people, and his perceptions are also more profound

The medicinal valley is particularly tranquil in the early morning

Fakong directly approached.

What should be done then

Are you going or not? Huanan looked at him coldly

A strange coolness continuously flowed into his mind, accumulating into a pool of autumn water, bright and clear.

The master ancestor has given instructions, naturally I shall comply

If you can avoid getting involved, then do so, to prevent causing any trouble. If you don't catch the fox, you might end up with a lot of hassle instead.

In the void, a jade bottle tilted, spilling jade liquid onto him, which then shot through a hand seal onto three stalks of cold wheat

She gazed at the lake water, clear as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, and couldn't help but exclaim: "What a wonderful place!"

This is the hand seal of the rejuvenation mantra

Sigh... the law seems helpless, shaking its head and letting out a sigh, as if troubled by its inability to articulate clearly

Master Ancestor, is Mingyue An here to invite Brother Yuanfang?

The punches move slowly and gracefully, reminiscent of Tai Chi from a past life, while the green bamboo in the courtyard sways in accordance with the rhythm of the strikes

"Senior brother, do not worry, this is a good thing." Fa En was handsome in appearance, spoke gently, and had a demeanor that was both respectful and clever

Moreover, going there is not without its benefits

Are you afraid of dangers on the road

Fang Ning, being a fifth-rank official, has already condensed his vital energy, and he is honest and simple. When faced with danger, he would not abandon himself.

As if waking up on a clear autumn morning

My mentor is no longer with us

Due to my weak constitution, practicing the Little Luohan Fist yields little result for great effort; I should focus on the Taiyin Small Refinement Form instead

In just a few sentences, his thoughts, which surpassed the speed of ordinary people by tenfold, had already shifted through dozens of ideas, leading him to a decision

Fakong recited the Rejuvenation Mantra three times in one breath

The existence of the Medicine Master Buddha also makes it difficult for him to be shaken in spirit.

As she approached, the fish in the lake gathered around, already accustomed to being fed by her.

Fakong smiled and said, "I am just afraid I won't be of any help. Why don't you come to my pharmacy and sit for a while? When Master Faning returns, we can set off together. What do you think?"

In a short period of time spent together, he concluded that she was a person who appeared warm on the outside but was cold on the inside, with a smile as radiant as a flower, yet her heart was devoid of any fluctuations

Let's stick with Fanning

He had seen many beauties in his past life, passing through a sea of flowers without a single petal touching him

The Mingyue An also transmits this incantation

It must be the treasure of the temple, kept secret and undisclosed

Fakong took a deep breath under the pressure of nausea and looked towards the woman in white who stood quietly two zhang away.

Those with great talent progress quickly in martial arts, while those with lesser talent do so slowly

"Senior Brother, I shall take my leave now." Fa Ning left absentmindedly, unable to extricate herself from the clarity that enveloped her.

Fakong stared at the green bamboo, wondering why he did not feel the wind, while they seemed to sway as if blown by it

"It wasn't said, but it should be it." Huinan spoke slowly, completely devoid of his usual impatience and irritability, as if his temperament had merged with his martial arts, gentle as a light breeze: "Among the entire temple, you are the most skilled in medicinal herbs."

Yuan Fang is the first seat of the Medicine King Institute. Those who fall ill or are injured within the temple seek his treatment, and with his medicine, they are cured of their ailments, showcasing his exceptional medical skills

Ning Zhenzhen smiled brightly for a while, then casually glanced at the patches of medicinal herbs.

Ning Zhenzhen looked at him, then at the three stalks of vibrant green winter wheat, which appeared more vigorous than the surrounding winter wheat

Senior brother, you are being too modest

Master Chengsen of Dalerong Temple, Master Xufeng of Jingye Temple

Sister Ning, I have heard that your esteemed temple possesses a scripture titled "The Sutra of the Moonlight Bodhisattva's Wisdom," which was recorded on palm leaves by the Xijia.

Others may find the fragrance of tea to be faint, yet he perceives it as penetrating to the heart and lungs, leaving him in a state of gentle intoxication throughout his entire being, truly an unparalleled enjoyment

They are all renowned figures, and I am merely here to make up the numbers

I have no talent in the martial arts, but I do possess some talent in the Buddhist incantations

Just as Faning was about to speak, a clear spring poured down upon him.

"You flatter me." Fa Kong smiled and shook his head, "Which seniors have you invited to help?"

Fa Kong Dao: "Master Ancestor, please allow Junior Brother Fa Ning to accompany me."

Release the seal and open your eyes

She finds it amusing that Fa Kong appears to be in a dire situation while maintaining a serious demeanor; the more serious Fa Kong becomes, the more she finds it funny

His expertise in medicinal herbs is not as profound as yours

He has a thick skin and is completely unconcerned about this little embarrassment, remaining composed even in the presence of the pure and stunning Ning Zhenzhen, who seems to embody the beauty of all the world's finest.

Yes

The void seemed to have a jade bottle pouring out a chilling liquid, which, after falling onto him, was directed towards Faning by a handprint

... ...

The white garments are as pure as snow, and the person resembles cold jade, as if a celestial being from the vast cold descended to the mortal realm

He is not confident in curing the Taiyin Baoshu, after all, it is a renowned miraculous tree, and he is unaware of the underlying issues.

The two individuals walked down side by side

He bent down and leaned in to take a gentle sniff

Suddenly, an immense force appeared out of nowhere

This medicinal herb garden resembles a wheat field, with each medicinal plant closely resembling wheat, and the herb is called Cold Wheat

Letting go of the tea cup with a smile: "It is nothing more than talent, difficult to articulate and understand, and I too find it perplexing"

Fakong took a delicate sip of tea under her enchanting gaze, nodding in satisfaction

It is said that without the Taiyin fruit, one cannot successfully practice the Taiyin minor transformation.

Upon seeing her, Fakong inexplicably thought of the school beauty he had secretly admired in his past life

The water temperature is just right, neither too high nor too low, and a quick pour of hot water completely releases the fragrance of the tea

In the bright morning sunlight, Huinan is dressed in a gray short coat, appearing slender and efficient

Ning Zhenzhen seemed to float as if her feet barely touched the ground

He does not believe a single word of this

Her delicate, pearly lips curled slightly, pursed in a smile. Is she casting a rejuvenation spell to save the cold wheat

Her probing instead became a handle in her grasp

Fa Kong followed him out of the valley to the Prajna Courtyard, entered Huinan's small courtyard, and saw him practicing martial arts in the yard

"Isn't the Buddha mantra self-empowering?" Ning Zhenzhen felt that her understanding had been profoundly challenged

Master Fakong, are they unable to continue?

Cold wheat enjoys moisture but fears flooding; if watered too much, it will end up like this now, and if watered insufficiently, it will also be the same

Fa Kong sat down, brewed two cups of tea, and handed her one cup

Huinan suddenly shook his hand

Fakong felt himself swept away by a wave of anger, flying over the walls of the Prajna Courtyard, skimming past the various walls of the Prajna Courtyard, and ultimately landing outside the gate of the Vajra Temple, crashing violently into an ancient tree

Fakong immediately thought of the unique treasure of Mingyue An, the Taiyin Treasure Tree

The phoenix-like eyes smile gently, resembling the rippling autumn waters

The law of emptiness appears to be still weak, yet the control over the body is exquisite and meticulous, walking steadily on the stone steps covered with ice and snow

Ning Zhenzhen followed up: "Does the Rejuvenation Spell possess such power? It seems unlikely."

The soles of the feet are in close contact, the arches are slightly suspended, the outer sides of the feet are slightly turned inward, and through the flexing and extending of the toes, the feet maximize friction with the smooth steps.

Fakong approached closely

Fang Ning approached slowly with a lunchbox in hand, reluctantly saying: "Senior brother, I have no problem."

Those well-versed in medicinal herbs are certainly aware of the Taiyin Baoshu, as it is both exceedingly famous and profoundly mysterious

However, the taste is also more particular, and the flavor is somewhat lacking; this slight deficiency will be magnified several times in his presence

However, with the matter of the Taiyin Treasure Tree now at hand, Ning Zhenzhen has added this condition: one must first cure the Taiyin Treasure Tree before proceeding to observe it

This scripture is enshrined in the inner courtyard

There is no fragrance, only the freshness tinged with dew

Fakong Xiaoxiao arrived at the pinewood table by the lake and lit the small red clay stove

The Taiyin Baoshu is crucial to the Mingyue An, as it pertains to their cultivation of the Taiyin Xiaolian form

The disciple feels ashamed, as he does not have a deep understanding of the Lunar Treasure Tree, and is afraid that...

The medicinal garden is well-maintained and tidy, and she recognizes several herbs, all of which are precious and rare

Huinan, with a fist raised, slowly said: "Mingyue An came to seek help; they have a tree that is experiencing problems"

Fakong closed his eyes, formed hand seals, and his lips moved, exuding an aura of dignified and sacred majesty

Pure, beautiful, wonderful

This tea is truly excellent tea Ning Zhenzhen smiled like a blooming flower while her heart remained cool and calm

Fa Kong also did not expect her to fully believe.

When under someone's roof, one cannot help but bow their head; it is essential to recognize the times and circumstances.

If one were to read the Xijia Beiye Sutra again, with the lotus seat rising another level and the sweet dew increasing by a drop, how wonderful would that be

Hey. "Huinan let out a grunt from his nose.

The monk walked steadily, though not quickly, with a graceful and composed demeanor, smiling and speaking as he walked: "Sister Ning must be very disappointed, right?"

"Good." Ning Zhenzhen smiled brightly.

The morning mist resembles a thin veil, drifting over the surface of the lake, sometimes unfurling and sometimes curling.

Fa Kong practiced a set of Little Luohan Fist by the lakeside, feeling warm all over. As he walked around the lake, he noticed a small yellow flower emerging from the grass and paused to admire it

The one who has arrived is Ning Zhenzhen, the talented disciple of Mingyue Monastery, whose martial arts skills are not inferior to those of Fa Ning

Ning Zhenzhen took the snow porcelain tea cup, her bright eyes still fixed on Fakong

That is good. Fa Kong smiled

Ning Zhenzhen smiled radiantly, her beauty illuminating those around her: "Is there a secret behind this? Then let it be."

For every degree increase in water temperature, the aroma of the tea diminishes by one point; for every degree decrease, the aroma cannot be fully released. Achieving the right temperature requires skill

Fakong Xiaoxiao: "Let's go have a cup of tea, Master Faning should be back soon"

The master ancestor instructed, and naturally, I shall comply

She covered her mouth with one hand, smiling charmingly.

However, the Yin Treasure Tree

May I have the honor of observing a few? This is a test of the Dharma's emptiness

After having breakfast, Fakong was taking a walk by the lake to aid digestion when a handsome young novice monk arrived in the valley

"Master Fakong, there are a few medicinal herbs here that are no longer viable," Ning Zhenzhen suddenly called out, waving her delicate white hand.

What is disappointment

Correct. The law of emptiness turns around and walks back.

In Ning Zhenzhen's astonishment, the withered yellow of the three stalks of cold wheat quickly faded away, replaced by vibrant green

If Master Fakong can cure the Baoshu, it should be no problem said Ning Zhenzhen playfully, her beauty captivating

How is the mood of the master?

The loose-fitting white garment cannot conceal her graceful figure, her beauty is exquisite, and she possesses a unique purity.

The Taiyin Minor Refinement not only possesses the miraculous ability to preserve one's appearance but also the power to transform one's temperament. The disciples of the Mingyue Monastery, who can achieve a physique as pure as ice and as delicate as snow, have indeed practiced the Taiyin Minor Refinement, which is also the foundational method of the Mingyue Monastery

As soon as she stepped onto the lush green grass, the warmth and subtle fragrance that greeted Ning Zhenzhen immediately filled her with wonder
