Du Yu frowned in disapproval: "Everyone has his own ambitions. You can't use the righteousness in your heart to demand others."
Xu Fanming looked away.
Du Yu sighed: "Follow me."
As he said that, he got up and walked out. Xu Fanming also quickly got up and followed.
Du Yu led Xu Fanming through the long path inside the temple and came to the abbot's Zen room at the back.
Du Yu raised his hand and knocked: "Is Master Yuanhui here?"
Xu Fanming frowned, somewhat confused as to why Du Yu brought him to find a monk.
"Donor, please come in." This voice is very strange. It sounds old and immature at the same time, making it difficult to tell whether the voice comes from an old man or a child.
Du Yu opened the door and went in, clasping his hands and bowing to Master Yuan Hui.
"Amitabha." Master Yuanhui saluted Du Yu with a rosary in his hand.
Xu Fanming had no choice but to bow along with Du Yu.
Master Yuanhui looked at Xu Fanming: "This is the beloved disciple that the donor often mentioned to me."
Xu Fanming was startled and looked at Du Yu blankly. He did not expect that Du Yu would actually introduce him to outsiders like this.
"Exactly." Du Yu smiled.
"I actually found it." Master Yuan Hui and Du Yu have been friends for many years, so they naturally know a thing or two about what happened back then.
"Master Yuanhui, I brought him here this time to show you." Du Yu led Xu Fanming to Master Yuanhui.
Master Yuanhui and Xu Fanming looked at each other, and Xu Fanming felt that he couldn't move for a moment.
Master Yuanhui is worthy of being called a master. His eyes are extremely bright, like a bright window falling on Xu Fanming, and he can clearly see all the bloody past in his body.
Xu Fanming twisted his neck uncomfortably when he was looked at by such a pair of transparent eyes.
Master Yuan Hui smiled, withdrew his gaze, and said to Du Yu: "As a disciple, you are a bit impatient and not as steady as you, but I am definitely not murderous as you said."
Du Yu sighed: "This is also because the Qinghong Society was disbanded. He didn't work in the torture hall, so he didn't see so many dirty things. It's naturally different from what I said back then."
Xu Fanming lowered his head and looked at his hands. It turned out that in Du Yu's eyes, he didn't know how to do those things.
He clenched his fists and pursed his lips.
"Nevertheless, he is still young and vigorous. You can't put too much pressure on him. Just do whatever you need to do, so as not to overwhelm the seedlings." Master Yuanhui twisted the rosary beads in his hand and advised Du Yu.
Du Yu nodded: "I haven't seen my apprentice in the past ten years. I have lost a lot of discipline. Naturally, I am afraid that he will fall into the same inner demons as I did back then."
Master Yuanhui nodded and looked at Du Yu meaningfully: "Your concern is right. I will take your apprentice to a place. You wait for a while."
As he spoke, Master Yuanhui stood up and led Xu Fanming out of the door.
Xu Fanming followed Master Yuanhui curiously, not knowing where he was going to take him.
The two people passed through a large purple bamboo forest, and Master Yuanhui brought him to a secluded meditation room.
"Go in." Master Yuanhui pointed inside.
Xu Fanming walked in doubtfully.
There was just a click and the door was locked from the outside.
Xu Fanming immediately stood up and held the dagger in his hand: "What are you doing? Let me out!"
"Don't be impatient, little benefactor." Master Yuanhui's voice came from outside, and the strange timbre made Xu Fanming's inner irritability instantly suppressed.
"There is a string of red sandalwood beads inside, please take it."
Xu Fanming inexplicably followed Master Yuanhui's instructions.
Sure enough, there was a brocade box on the table, with a string of red sandalwood beads lying quietly inside.
Suddenly, there was another sound of footsteps all around.
Xu Fanming has been traveling around the world for so many years, and he immediately heard that there were probably a lot of people outside.
"Little donor, please meditate for a while."
Capturing why, Master Yuanhui's words have a strange power that makes Xu Fanming follow them unconsciously.
He was meditating on the ground, still holding the string of sandalwood beads in his hand.
The footsteps around him stopped, and people outside also sat down.
Xu Fanming didn't know what Master Yuanhui was going to do, so he squeezed the beads in his hand with some anxiety.
The bell of Wangji Temple rang, and the long bell made Xu Fanming's uneasiness dissipate along with his irritability.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of wooden fish came from all directions, and Xu Fanming closed his eyes unconsciously.
If any pilgrims from Wangji Temple come here, they will definitely be surprised.
All the named monks in Wangji Temple sat around an independent meditation room and chanted sutras together.
This is a treatment that no amount of money can buy.
As Xu Fanming sat inside, he felt that the evil spirit left in his heart since the last eighty-one punishment on Hu Yuan gradually dissipated.
He knew in his heart that Master Yuanhui was giving him meditation. Xu Fanming slowly relaxed his body and mind and allowed himself to completely immerse himself in the scriptures.
Outside the purple bamboo forest, Du Yu listened to the chanting of the monks, looked up at the sky, and sighed.
I just hope that Xu Fanming can not be troubled by his inner demons, Du Yu thought.
He knows too well what it feels like to be controlled by inner demons, so here with Xu Fanming, he must get rid of his inner demons when they first appear, otherwise, it will one day lead to catastrophe.
Du Yu patted the bamboo leaves that fell on his gown and listened silently to the chanting inside.
On the Chen Mansion side, Chen Jinjun stopped a rickshaw and went to the government house.
Nian Zheng had been waiting for Chen Jinjun at the gate of the government office early. When he saw Chen Jinjun coming, he stepped forward to greet Chen Jinjun and extended his hand to take Chen Jinjun out of the car.
But Chen Jinjun jumped out of the car as if he didn't see his gentlemanly behavior.
"Young master, I have been waiting for a long time." Chen Jinjun said hello with clear eyes.
Nian Zheng nodded and handed over the gift he had prepared early in the morning: "This is a small gesture, do you want my boss to accept it?"
Chen Jinjun lowered his eyes and looked at the long and narrow box in Nian Zheng's hand. She was well-informed and could guess that it was either a hairpin or a writing brush.
However, Chen Jinjun did not declare to the outside world that he likes to be arty.
Then the only thing inside this box could be a hairpin.
Gifting yourself a hairpin on this day? Chen Jinjun’s face twitched almost invisible.
But it was inappropriate to accept it, so Chen Jinjun had no choice but to take it and put it in Xu Sheng's hand: "Thank you very much, Master Nian."
When Nian Zheng saw that Chen Jinjun didn't look at the gift, nor did he show any expression of joy, he wrinkled his nose and said, "Don't you, Mr. Chen, take a look at what the gift is?"
Chen Jinjun turned around and stared at Nian Zheng, as if he had seen through Nian Zheng's little thoughts: "In the capital, we usually treat guests first and then pay attention to the gifts."
Nian Zheng could only smile: "What my boss said is that I was reckless."
Chen Jinjun raised his eyebrows: "In that case, would you like to ask Master Nian to come with me to see the land?"
She said "look" instead of "select", because Chen Jinjun already had the land he wanted in mind, and no matter what Nian Zheng said, she would not change her mind.
Nian Zheng obviously didn't understand the polite words of an old mall fox like Chen Jinjun, so he just nodded.
Chen Jinjun walked in front and found the official signing the land deed with ease.
