Chapter 820 (1/2)
“My lord, you’re not going to sleep at the Emperor’s place for real right?” Little Monk frowned his eyebrows while struggling to move his little short legs.
Phoenix was watering Bodhi tree with the mythical water given by that man while answering, “Of course it’s real.”
“But you can’t leave Buddhism.” Little Monk spoke seriously, “You will suffer if you leave.”
Phoenix turned around at glanced at Little Monk, “I will be alright as long as I’m with that person.”
“Why is it so?” Little Monk could not understand.
Phoenix opened the second water bottle and spoke, “Because he has never converted so he is not under Buddhism’s control.”
“How would there be someone who has not converted into Buddhism?” Little Monk widened his eyes in disbelief. He always thought that one must convert in order to become a Buddha.
Of course Phoenix knew what was on Little Monk’s mind. She yawned languidly, “He’s different. He was formed from the essence of heaven and earth, so he doesn’t have to convert into Buddhism. It all depends on his will to become a Buddha or a G.o.d.”
Little Monk was dumbfounded upon hearing, “I see. No wonder everyone was saying that the Emperor is very powerful.”
“It actually depends. There are others who were formed by the essence of heaven and the earth too, but Buddhism could do nothing with this man particularly. Back then, Buddhism did think of converting him. Until today, they are still trying to make him surrender.” Phoenix smiled with some insensible mock when she spoke to the last.
Mock against who? The Buddha?
Little Monk thought that he had seen it wrongly. He shook his little head and finally noticed that something was wrong when he saw Phoenix watering the second mythical water, “My lord, why are you watering two bottles of mythical water today?”
“Oh, because I have to stay overnight outside. Furthermore, if the Emperor’s place is comfortable, perhaps I will stay for another two days.” As a person who had never visited other’s house, Phoenix was excited. Moreover, there were many demons in that person’s house and she could feed them like goldfish during her leisure time.
Phoenix was exhilarated but Little Monk was in great shock, “Isn’t a day enough? You’re even considering to stay for two days?!”
“You should go and pack my things now. Please bring along my pajamas too.” Phoenix stood up and spoke to Bodhi in a low voice after finis.h.i.+ng her sentences, “Since he has invited me over as a guest, should I bring along some gifts? Forget it. He has got everything anyway.”
No one knew what did Phoenix mean by that.
Only Bodhi could understand her.
It had been hundreds of years since the day little Phoenix came to Mountain Tenya.
Finally, there was a person who was willing to be her friend.
She was not lonely finally…
From dawn till dusk.
Bodhi was still swaying slightly in front of Buddha’s gate. But this time, there was a notable gentleness from the wind.
Along with the chanting of sanskrits in the air, he blew and opened Phoenix’s scripture without the Sound of Buddha knowing.
All of the jibe and disrespect that had aroused in Phoenix’s heart.
Was whitewashed by him so well.
Only then she would have more time to do what she wanted.
Because once Phoenix was found to be revolting, Buddhism would force her to go through reincarnation.
That was all he could do to reduce her loneliness, even though he was not the one who could enlighten her…
Perhaps no one would know.
The feelings of Bodhi, who had been standing in the vast sea of clouds at the moment.
There was one thing that he never told Phoenix.
He would help her in achieving whatever she wanted to do.
Even if she got hurt one day and wanted to come back, he would still be there, waiting for her.
But Bodhi knew that the person would not retreat once she had made a decision…
At night, a sky full of stars twinkled under their feet.
