Chapter 353 – The Impending Pain Of The Country! (2/2)

However, Li Muyang used fine wine as bait, and Cui Meng was finally no longer chattering non stop in front of him.

Li Muyang placed the luggage on the table, lifted the tarpaulin on top, and took s...o...b..ll out from a small wicker cage inside.

s...o...b..ll, with an upset expression, spat out a bubble at Li Muyang.

Li Muyang wiped his face, and it blew another bubble at him.

Li Muyang did not bother wiping his face anymore, allowing it to incessantly blow bubbles. The water elements very soon covered Li Muyang's face.

Cui Meng finally couldn't contain himself, curiously studied s...o...b..ll as he asked, “What pet is that? I've never seen one before.”

“A rabbit.”

“Pfff——”

s...o...b..ll was obviously not satisfied with its introduction.

Li Muyang wiped away the water stains on his face, then said with a wry smile: “a flying rabbit. Very rare.”

“No wonder.” Cui Meng laughed foolishly. “I was thinking why does it look so likeable?”

“The more you see him, the more likeable he is,” said Li Muyang, reaching to stroke the head of s...o...b..ll. “At first sight I thought it was very cute, and the more I see him the more I think so, our family's Young miss often hits him——”

“Miss s.h.i.+nian is so fierce?”

“Hitting is petting, nagging is loving, because it does not eat its vegetables——”

“I see. It deserves it.”

“Pff——” s...o...b..ll spat out water.

In a quiet hall, Cui Xiaoxin, Li s.h.i.+nian and Song Tao were kneeling on a praying mat, kowtow and praying to Bodhisattva.

Cui Xiaoxin put her palms together devoutly, the lashes of her closed eye were like little blades.

Her face looked serious and concentrated, although she did not say a word, she was silently praying in her heart.

Because her brother had safely returned, Li s.h.i.+nian did not have anything she wanted to wish for. She asked Bodhisattva to protect her family, then asked Bodhisattva to bless her to be more and more beautiful, and also asked Bodhisattva to bless her that she won't become fat no matter how much she eats, before finally opening her eyes and stared at Cui Xiaoxin praying with a silly and happy expression on her face.

She waited until Cui Xiaoxin opened her eyes, then whispered: “Sister Xiaoxin, what did you ask for?”

“That my wish to come true.” Cui Xiaoxin said in a quiet voice.

“Then what is your wish?” Li s.h.i.+nian teasingly asked.

Cui Xiaoxin cast glance at Li s.h.i.+nian and did not answer. She placed her hands on the floor and bowed to bodhisattva.

Li s.h.i.+nian also bowed formally, and then followed Cui Xiaoxin up.

Song Tao was still knelt in the same place, murmuring.

Li s.h.i.+nian couldn't tell what he was reciting, but it should be 'The Sutra of Bodhisattva's Fundamental Vows' or 'The Sutra of the Medicine Buddha', this kind of Buddhist scriptures that prays for the good health of a sick person.

As the two of them came out of the hall, Fazheng was waiting by the doorway, “Benefactress, Thousand Buddha Temple is famous for its one thousand Buddhas, 999 Buddhas are hidden between the mountains, cliff and rocks, each is lifelike, breathtaking. There is also a Buddha hidden in the mountainous forest, only one that has extreme talent with the Buddha can see it. It is still early, and if you two are interested, I can take you there to have a look.”

Cui Xiaoxin and Li s.h.i.+nian exchanged a glance, both were tempted.

Cui Xiaoxin looked at Monk Fazheng and said: “Thank you, Great master. However, I have already heard that the 999 Buddha statues are mysterious as though made by heavens, only those that are fated can be able to find them within the forest and rocks. If Great master accompanied us and guided us, it would lose the elegance of the visit. Why don't us two search ourselves.”

“This remark is a great praise. Then Fazheng will take my leave.”

Cui Xiaoxin took Li s.h.i.+nian's hand, smiled and said: “We have to go search for the Thousand Buddhas ourselves.”

“Sounds good.” Li s.h.i.+nian rolled her eyes, thinking about how she could get Brother Li Muyang to accompany them?

In the main hall, Song Tao, who was chanting the Sutras, suddenly sensed something and looked up.

The closed right eye of the Bodhisattva was opened and blood was flowing rapidly.

Thump!

Song Tao staggered back and fell down on a stone slate outside.

His face was pale and his body was as though struck by lightning.

The blood of the divine buddha, the impending pain of the country.
