Chapter 123: Complicit
It's not clear after the rain.
There are frogs croaking in the small lake in the quiet garden. There is a low case in the small pavilion. You should sit cross-legged in front of the case, with the back of a chair behind you, pressing a scroll with one hand and supporting your eyebrows with the other.
She was not wearing a Taoist robe like before, but was wearing loose household clothes.
The wooden hairpin is used to tie up the hair casually, no makeup is applied, and the person is also lazy.
People say that hibiscus emerges from clear water, and the carvings are naturally removed. This is probably the case.
Meng Yuan could clearly see that the reason why the eldest sister did not want to see guests was because she had just come out of the bath. But they are all our own people, and they are a little outside the circle.
Ying Ru finally turned his head slightly after listening to Meng Yuan's words.
Before she put down the book in her hand, she looked at the young man in front of her. She saw that the young man was wearing cloth and had an ordinary complexion. He was not sick and harmless, and he looked upright. She said: "You already have a lot of ideas. If you are planted with a few more, what will happen?" Nothing.”
Is this the attitude the owner should have? Come back, I'm serving you halfway, and I'm losing my mind. Don't call me a bad servant and deceive the master, and don't slap me!
"Miss Third," Meng Yuan took a step forward and said helplessly, "I committed a crime."
Meng Yuan knew very well that although the third lady had a bad mouth, she was an extremely intelligent person.
To deal with this kind of person, all the true and false methods may not work. It is best to tell the truth.
"You didn't go to Nie Yannian, but you came to me instead. It shows that this matter is not a big deal." Ying Ru held the scroll in his hand, moved forward and nodded at the table, "Sit down."
Meng Yuan has been to Jingyuan many times. He used to stand and answer questions, but now he can finally sit down.
It can be seen that being able to cause trouble is also a kind of ability.
After bowing, he came forward and sat cross-legged opposite Ying Ru, with a low case between them.
There are frogs croaking all around, making it even more peaceful.
The breeze was blowing gently, and Meng Yuan saw that the green hair on Ying Ru's ears and temples was trembling slightly, and there was a vague fragrance coming, like the light fragrance of lotus flowers.
Meng Yuan looked at his nose with his eyes, and his heart with his nose, without squinting his eyes, just like a gentleman.
"Ever since you entered martial arts, you have been mixed up with demon monks." Ying put down the book and said, "Nie Yannian and Zhang Guinian must have told you how to guard against thoughts and various psychedelic techniques."
She looked into Meng Yuan's eyes and asked: "You are proficient in the three classics of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. Do you know that everything in Confucianism has its origin?"
This is an in-depth study of the essence. Meng Yuan immediately said: "Everything has its beginning and end, and everything has its end. If you know the order, you will advance. If the world is regarded as one thing, then the country is the foundation. If the country is regarded as one thing, then the family will be the foundation. I don’t know if that’s right?”
"As expected of poetry and swordsmanship." Ying praised and said with a smile: "My Taoism has the theory of yin and yang. Yin and yang change at any time, depending on where they are. For example, between you and me, men are yang and women are yin. But if you look closely, I am at the top; you are at the bottom, so I am Yang, you - what are you thinking?"
Isn't this too sharp? Meng Yuan just couldn't help but think about the slap he received in the illusion, and the third lady noticed it without thinking.
Meng Yuan had no evil thoughts in his heart, but after all, the person in front of him was the master's family, and he looked dignified and dignified. He was still in the illusion for a while, so Meng Yuan's heartstrings twitched slightly.
"There is thunder in the chest and the face is like a flat lake. Have you learned how to bloom spring thunder?" Ying asked.
"Learned." Meng Yuan replied and added, "I didn't think about anything."
"You'd better not think about anything." Ying Ru said angrily, "Otherwise your little wife will not be a little Taoist nun, but a little nun."
Will bully honest people! Meng Yuan raised his head and looked at Ying Rusi, and saw a slight smile on her lips, which showed that she also knew that she was bullying an honest person.
"Where are you talking about?" Ying asked.
"The change of yin and yang in Taoism." Meng Yuan replied honestly.
"Go to the extreme of emptiness and keep quiet. Among the three religions, many knowledges are interlinked." Ying Ru's face remained as usual, obviously she no longer wanted to pursue it. She continued: "I have said all this to tell you that the path to Buddhism is First plant the seed of Bodhi, then develop the mind of Buddha, take refuge in the three refuges and five precepts to eliminate greed, anger and ignorance. Isn’t this also a kind of thought? ”
The point should be continued like this, "This is the method of chanting, which is the foundation for them to enter the Tao."
"What does Third Miss mean?" Meng Yuan asked.
"I mean, this method of thinking is the strongest method, and it is also the weakest method. Between the world and the world, there are all kinds of thoughts in the heart. It does not mean that there is no greed, so it will not be corroded by greed; it does not mean that there is no lust, and there is lust. It’s hard to miss.”
It should be seen that Meng Yuan has a desire to seek, and he teaches carefully: "Buddhists cultivate nature and mind, so they are best at attacking the mind. Once a bodhi seed is planted in the heart, it will be difficult to break the shell in the future, or it will become a towering tree. It all depends on you. .”
"Third Miss, are you teaching me to wipe it frequently to avoid dust?" Meng Yuan understood.
"You have the root of wisdom." Ying smiled like this, "Buddhism seeks emptiness. The Sudden Enlightenment School is unique, but the Gradual Practice School is more suitable for us to study."
Ying looked at Meng Yuan like this and continued: "Cultivation of mind and ability will eliminate long-lasting thoughts. Do you need me to help you eliminate thoughts?"
"How to kill?" Meng Yuan asked.
"Buddhists use the method of meditation and visualization to cut off thoughts, Confucianists use the method of righteousness and sincerity to cut off thoughts, and Taoists use the method of sitting and forgetting to cut off thoughts." Ying said with an erratic voice like this: "For three days, I will sit and forget. The Dharma helps you get rid of temporary thoughts and obsessions.”
My original intention is to ask for a divine power, how can I let you enter my body at will?
Thinking like this, Meng Yuan unconsciously thought of evil servants bullying their masters and not distinguishing between superior and inferior.
Moreover, there was also the matter of the Jinghuo. Meng Yuan really didn't dare to let the third lady look at it casually.
"If you don't listen with your ears, listen with your heart. If you don't listen with your heart, listen with your breath." Such a sound seems to come from the nine heavens, and also seems to soar up to the nine heavens.
"Third Miss, I think it's better for me to find my own way to kill Nian." Meng Yuan was very serious, "I am a craftsman by trade, and I am best at finding opportunities to gain momentum!"
Ying stared into Meng Yuan's eyes, and then sneered, "You need to know: you don't need other people's thoughts if you are evil!"
How to slander people?
Meng Yuan felt guilty and did not dare to answer the question. But I made up my mind that I would never show my emotions in the future, and I would never let the third lady see my thoughts again. "Is this a slim-waisted slave?" Ying asked.
"Yes." Meng Yuan replied honestly.
"Kill?"
"Yes."
"Who else?"
"Yao Jiamu and Yue Qingtian."
"Why kill them?"
"They want to kill me."
The two of them had a quick Q&A, but Ying Ruzhi didn't ask for details and just knocked on the case.
The brown-skinned and white-bellied Xiangling immediately ran over from a distance, bowed and said, "What kind of work did Third Grandma give me?"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Go call Mingyue and tell her that there is news about the person she wants to find." Ying threw out a copper plate.
"I won't charge you this time!" Xiang Ling took the copper plate, put it back on the table, and ran away happily.
Meng Yuan looked at this scene and said to himself that my girl is being used as a Taoist child by you, and Xiao Xiangling has become your errand boy!
Ying Ru glanced at Meng Yuan and said, "Do you know what to say?"
"I know." Meng Yuan originally thought that the two of them were working together and should smile at each other, but when he looked up, he saw the other person frowning, as if he had some disgust.
The two of them were silent, and the cicadas chirped louder and louder.
Not long after, I saw Mingyue approaching, accompanied by the woman in the red cloak.
The two of them came to sit down in front of the low table, one holding a sword and one holding a sword, while the other held a cloak.
Ying Rusui didn't say anything, just picked up the scroll and read it again. Mingyue and Hong Cloak looked at Meng Yuan.
"Oh, it's a long story." Meng Yuan stood up long ago, saluted, and then sighed and said: "What a coincidence, I have a subordinate from Qingshui Town. When I went to Mu Village, I remembered Regarding this matter, I planned to visit the family of my subordinate. When I passed by Yan's house, I thought about Mrs. Yan's difficulty, so I stopped by and found out that Mrs. Yan was the slender slave who had just murdered Yao Jiamu and his wife. Yue Qingtian.”

Speaking of this, Meng Yuan sighed again, "Although I am a small flag and not very capable, I also know that I am humble and I dare not forget my humble position..."
"Okay, okay." The woman in the red cloak interrupted, as if she was too lazy to listen to such nonsense.
"Ha." Mingyue, who had always been cold and cold, also sneered.
Why don't these people believe what I say? Meng Yuan could only sigh again.
"You are Miss Ying San, so I naturally believe you, and you don't need to quibble." Mingyue said, still coldly, "Just tell me what news you got."
Meng Yuan immediately told the whereabouts of Xie Ping and the Mouse Taoist Association.
"This rosary is the invitation to the Taoist meeting. Please use this to attend the meeting." Meng Yuan held the rosary in both hands and presented it to Mingyue.
"I think it's dirty." Mingyue refused, "Just keep it."
"..." Meng Yuan was stunned for a moment, put away the rosary, and said: "If Miss Mingyue needs my place, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"You are forced to use Floating Light Cave Sky, and rest for two days. Forget it this time." Mingyue said.
Meng Yuan had never thought about it. The Jieping screen was not easy to deal with. Although it was possible to take down the Jieping screen this time, it was still important to open the acupoints early.
Thinking like this, Meng Yuan had regrets on his face, but then he clenched his fists again. Just as he was about to say a few words, he saw that the third lady seemed to be smiling, so he quickly held it back, for fear that he would make mistakes if he said too much.
"Beware of fraud." Ying warned.
Mingyue responded and went out immediately, and the red cloak followed immediately.
Meng Yuan originally wanted to say a few words to the third lady, but he saw that she was already reading the book and clearly didn't want to talk more.
Reluctantly, Meng Yuan held up his hands and retreated.
"Little Gideo!" Not far away, Xiangling jumped out, climbed onto Meng Yuan's shoulder, and said seriously: "Don't go out and run around! I have thought of a way, and I will ensure that you eat well and drink well in the future. No need to You’re going on an adventure! Pack up and dress fashionably!”
"What method?" Meng Yuan asked curiously.
"Wait for my good news!" Xiangling didn't say anything, but patted her chest and was very confident.
"Also." She took out a handful of pig hair, "This is for classmate Du. I am the president, and everyone in the Lao Biekeng Poetry Club has a share!"
"What about mine?" Meng Yuan smiled.
"Don't worry!" Xiang Ling whispered: "We will let Mr. Du make his own brushes, and I will make yours myself. Don't tell him!"
"I know." Meng Yuan accepted the pig hair, and the two of them smiled in unison.
But Meng Yuan remembered that Dugu Kang still owed him a secret map! Just in time to pick it up.
