Forty-three: Bodhicitta

"I heard that there are people here who have left their souls and died."

As Lianyi said this, she walked towards the west room. In the west room, which had plain tiles and gray walls, a desk and a simple mat were set up. The scholar was lying on the mat. When the demon hunter saw a practitioner coming, they all stepped aside. The woman whispered softly.

Sobbing, Lian Yi took the rosary beads and whispered "My condolences, madam", then went to the scholar's body and took a look at the scholar's dark eyes.

"The soul is still alive?"

In lotus clothes, she moved her rosary beads and recited Buddhist scriptures.

Lian Yi spoke slowly and quickly, with short and crisp syllables. As a master of martial arts and with keen senses, Guo Xun could only barely hear the words "Infinite Light Buddha", "Nectar Lord" and "Perfect Achievement". He guessed that this was probably the pure land of the Mahabodhi Sect.

One of the methods.

The scholar's eyes gradually became clearer, and by the time Lian Yi finished reciting the mantra, the scholar's eyes had returned to normal.

Lian Yi stretched out her hand to close the scholar's eyes. The woman burst into tears again and thanked her repeatedly. Lian Yi comforted her a few words softly. After the woman's mood stabilized, she turned to ask Guo Xun: "Did Captain Guo find any clues?

"

"He was living alone and studying on Wushan Mountain in the southern suburbs of Xuandu a few days ago. It seems that it was at that time that he bumped into the fox demon in the suburbs."

Guo Xun did not tell Li Chan's story to cause trouble for Li Chan's disciples, but the woman sobbed and added: "A few days ago, a few days ago... there was a... ghostwriter..."

Lian Yi noticed that Guo Xun frowned when the woman said this, and asked, "What did that man do?"

"He said a few words to Yanqing... wrote an... essay... and then left... I don't know what he did... At that time, Yanqing... seemed to be frightened..."

Lian Yi thought for a while and asked: "Captain Guo, have you found that person?"

"Master Lianyi, talk here."

Guo Xun walked out and walked straight to the front door.

When Lian Yi also came out, he explained: "This case has nothing to do with that person. Master Lian Yi, the guy who wrote the essays is named Li Mingchan. He is good at the study of strange things. He was involved in this case just because of it."

It's a coincidence. To be honest, I just met him and asked him to help investigate the case."

"Excellent in the study of supernatural beings?" Lian Yi smiled half-heartedly, "How did I hear that a while ago, a deviant man who was also good at the study of supernatural beings had a bet with Li Zhaoxuan, and Li Zhaoxuan lost?"

"That's him." Guo Xun lamented that the circle of practitioners was too small. It turned out that the incident at the Goddess Bridge had already reached the ears of the disciples of the Mahabodhi Temple.

"So it's him." Lianyi nodded, "However, he is a heretical person after all. Captain Guo frequently asks him to assist the Shenzha Division in handling cases. I'm afraid it will damage the reputation of the Shenzha Division?"

As they were talking, a figure walked over from the street and shouted: "Captain Guo!"

Hearing the sound, Lian Yi turned around and saw a man wearing a blue-grey straight trousers. He was tall and handsome, with a dagger in a plum shark leather sheath hanging on his waist. This was nothing, but the strange thing was that it was a dagger.

There is also a scroll in a cloth cover hanging next to it.

What's even more peculiar is the pair of eyes, which have two distinct colors.

Lian Yi was curious. He had visions in his eyes. Could it be that he was an outsider?

Or is this an anomaly of practicing the heretical path?

She was practicing in the Mahabodhi Temple, and when she came down the mountain for the first time, she saw the demons of the Left Way for the first time. On Longhua Mountain, she heard from the Master of the Sutra that the Dharma of the Left Way, using the mortal body to steal supernatural power, often has great consequences, so the demons of the Left Way are mostly in the form of

Ugly appearance, weird appearance.

Looking at it now, this man with mandarin duck eyes is not ugly. On the contrary, he has a good look.

Li Chan walked to the door and saw Lian Yi. In Dayong Kingdom, people dressed in Buddhist and Taoist attires had a good background even if they were not practitioners. He glanced at Guo Xun and then looked at Lian Yi.

Before Guo Xun could answer, Lian Yi raised his palms, nodded and said, "Dabodhi Temple, Lian Yi."

"I'm actually lucky enough to meet the Master of Mahabodhi Temple here." Li Chan's eyes flashed with surprise, and he clasped his hands in Lian Yi, "I'm Li Chan."

"I heard Captain Guo talking about you." Lianyi nodded and smiled slightly at Li Chan, then turned and entered the room.

Li Chan glanced at Guo Xun doubtfully. Before coming, Guo Xun had never said that there were practitioners involved in this case.

As a "left-behind demon", Li Chan's situation is actually very thought-provoking. The imperial court of the Dayong Kingdom forbids left-behind demons from disturbing the world with sorcery. However, in practice, there are many places where the rules in the law need to be adapted. For example, when going up to the official

Most aristocrats will have a few heretical people as their staffs. Down to the nocturnal watchmen and ordinary people in the market, they will sometimes learn two ways to defend themselves. These things will increase the number of people in the Shenzha Division ten times.

Can't handle it.

Common people respect and fear evil people.

The attitude of the cultivating community towards left-behind demons is much more uniform. Those practitioners who practice the true Dharma have always despised or even hated left-behinders. Li Zhaoxuan is a proof of this.

With practitioners involved in this case, Li Chan would inevitably have to be more cautious when acting.

But at present, it seems that Lian Yi is not as difficult to deal with as Li Zhaoxuan.

After all, when the chief lecturer of the Mahabodhi Temple participated in the debate with the Supreme Yoga Sect at the foot of Fuyu Mountain more than ten years ago, he said, "Be motivated to benefit others and seek perfect enlightenment."

Seeking the Buddha's way and transforming all sentient beings."

To look down on others at will is to have a "conceited mind". To rely on one's own practice of formations and look down on those who have not received the true teaching is to violate the "increasing condescension precept". How can we prove the supreme bodhicitta?

Master Lianyi seemed to have attained the samadhi of bodhicitta and did not show any contempt.

"Master Lianyi just arrived." Guo Xun whispered to Li Chan, "I happened to run into this case."

"So that's it." Li Chan nodded and followed him into the house.

As soon as Li Chan entered the house, the woman pointed at Li Chan and shouted.

"It's him, it's him!"

Li Chan was stunned for a moment, and seeing the woman's fearful look, he smiled bitterly and said, "Madam, it seems you have misunderstood something?"

But the woman didn't listen at all, and hid behind a demon hunter, poking Li Chan from a distance with her finger, and cried: "It's not you, it's not you who frightened Yanqing after you came that day! You,

Do you dare to say that you are not? Now all the officials, all the officials are here! And this mage, you still haven’t told me honestly, did you kill Yanqing?"

Lianyi looked at Li Chan inquiringly, as if waiting for his explanation.

Guo Xun winked at the demon hunter and motioned for the woman to be taken away. While the demon hunter stopped the woman, Li Chan took the time to explain: "When I came here, I saw the scholar being seduced by the demon.

So I scared him and calmed him down."

But the woman saw the opening and scurried away. A weak female Taoist cried until she was exhausted. She didn't know where she got such strong strength. She broke through the interception of the demon hunter and rushed to Lian Yi's feet to hug her.

My legs are crying.
