Chapter 10-Whereabouts of the Avalokitesvara (1/2)
”Avalokitesvara?” I suddenly felt something in my heart. I knew that Liu Shuai, by his nature, wouldn't joke around with me over such a matter, so I tentatively recited a passage, “as Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva walked deeply into Prajna Paramita, he found all the five senses empty and the sufferings were relieved. Are you talking about this person? ”
Liu Shuai laughed bitterly, ”What you said was the imagination of the descendants. I know as much about this as you do. I only heard my master mention it once, that he was with the Avalokitesvara. As he said that, he looked at me and sighed, saying that I would not understand, and did not continue. But regarding the Avalokitesvara's sacred art, no matter how theatrical the legend is, there should always be some realty, especially his two great magic tools which no one has ever questioned before. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. You should ask Yan if there is any way to find my master, even though … ”
Liu Shuai's eyes suddenly dimmed, “even though he has dead for many years, Yan could shuttling between the world of live and dead, so he may remember something.”
After saying that, Liu Shuai went into a taxi, leaving me alone by the side of the road in a daze.
You could not understand! I felt that I was extremely foolish that time. Did these people with some abilities just like to speak in an obscure way? Did they want to make you astonished, but not willing to explain to you the twists and turns in this?
Well, how could they make others feel that they unfathomable if they didn't pretend to be unfathomable? We allowed so many mortals to become bogus masters as they pretended to make a person to somersault a dozen times by shaking their hands, let alone a person with a real bit of skill.
“Are you saying that you saw Fan Bing Bing talking to you on TV?” Yan sat cross-legged on the floor in the mirror and asked as he ate the ice cream. If it wasn't for his past actions, I really wouldn't connect him with that godly person from the Underworld. This was obviously a little rogue who came to my house to eat and drink. But luckily, no matter how he ate the things in the mirror, as long as he raised his hand, everything would return to the original state, and I would not lose a penny in real world, so I just left him.
”Yes, or no,” I tilted my head as I recalled the scene. ”I don't think it was an illusion, because she told me not to be surprised by what we saw, and also that our way of doing things cannot save Zhou Yuan.”
“Really? You did not misidentify something, do you?” Yan laughed and lowered his head to look at the bottle in his bosom, which contained Zhou Yuan's soul. ”It's a pity that Zhou Yuan's soul cannot be summoned here. It can only stay in the bottle quietly, otherwise I would be able to let it meet Zhou Yuan.”
”Um …” I scratched my head, ”do you know where Liu Shuai's master is?”
”What?” Yan's brows twitched, ”why are you asking this?”
”You got an idea? What happened to them? ” I saw something was up and immediately went closer to the mirror, while startling Yan.
”What are you doing?” Yan paused, ”he died a long time ago?”
“What? He’s dead?” I looked at Yan. ”As expected. Liu Shuai just told me that we might be able to save Zhou Yuan by finding his master. ”
“Aha, dream!” Yan laughed until he almost fell, causing the cola beside him to almost spill. ”His master was really able in the past, but he insisted to search for the afterglow of the Five Four Immortal Granting to strengthen his divine soul, only causing his soul to scatter in the end. If it wasn't for me …”
