Chapter 2293: Can Chat About Our Life Ideals
“I want to stay here for a few days and take a good look at Illusory Temple.” Ning Shu looked at Hui Ji and said, “While at it, we can chat about our life ideals.”
“To refuse would be impolite of me,” Hui Ji solemnly said.
Ning Shu ate the vegetarian food that the young monk talked about, and it tasted really good. “The food is so well prepared. You monks sure know how to live it up.”
“You are a distinguished guest. The meals are usually not so refined,” Hui Ji said.
Ning Shu looked at a peach blossom forest outside the window. The peach blossoms were now showing their buds. The wind was blowing the branches, and the buds were swaying slightly.
“These peach blossoms listen to Sanskrit every day. Perhaps they will develop a Buddhist nature. Or who knows, a peach blossom demon might come to life in your temple,” Ning Shu said to Hui Ji.
“If so, that would be good. Everything has a spirit, and if there is a peach blossom that listens to Sanskrit and gives birth to spiritual wisdom, then it also has fate with the Buddha,” Hui Ji said in his clear and unclouded voice.
Ning Shu held her chin as she glanced at the young monk and then at the peach blossom outside. She had already made up a poignant love story between the beautiful monk and the peach blossom demon in her mind.
However, it was not a matter of course whether the peach blossom demon would really come to life.
“Little monk, if you have nothing to do, just water and fertilize these peach blossoms. Don’t chant the scriptures all day long. If you want to chant the scriptures, you have to recite them to the peach blossoms. Who knows, you might just get to raise a peach blossom demon,” Ning Shu said with a smile.
The young monk Hui Ji did not speak for a while.
“Little monk, what do you think love is?” Ning Shu asked the young monk.
“An obsession.” Hui Ji said, “An obsession that men want to obtain at all costs.
“Men cannot escape greed, hatred, and delusion,” Hui Ji continued.
Ning Shu felt that what Hui Ji said made sense. When someone was greedy and wanted to possess something, then they would be unreconciled if they didn’t get it.
Ning Shu stretched her body. “I’m leaving tomorrow. Make sure the money is ready.”
The next day, Ning Shu left with Hui Ji’s money, but the young monk stopped Ning Shu before she left.
“What is it?” Ning Shu asked.
“Amitabha, may Buddha bless you,” Hui Ji said seriously. He handed the prayer beads in his hand to Ning Shu.
Ning Shu took the Buddha beads, which were plump and glossy, with a scent of sandalwood. “Thanks. I’m leaving now.”
Ning Shu took the group of people and left in a cloud of dust.
After she returned to the Sacred Demonic Peak, Ning Shu stopped running around and followed the Poisonous Scorpion, Elder Shen, around to learn how to make poison.
Her poison-making skills were still elementary, and it’d be good for her to learn more.
Ning Shu also joined him in running human experiments.
Ning Shu mainly wanted to learn from Elder Gu the skills of dealing with human skin. She also wanted to learn about medicines that could change the characteristics of the human body.
These things could be useful in the future.
However, Ning Shu felt that Elder Gu, with all the kinds of strange poisons he had, was really twisted.
He had all sorts of ways to torment people.
It was eye-opening for Ning Shu. Elder Gu was really worthy of the Poisonous Scorpion moniker.
Ning Shu actually learned a lot along the way. She memorized all kinds of poison prescriptions to make, as well as all kinds of herbal medicines and poisons.
“When will Young Miss come back?” Mei Wu asked.
“Soon. Very soon,” Ning Shu stared at the book and said without raising her head.
“What time is soon?” Mei Wu tirelessly asked.
“It’s soon.” Ning Shu said. “Your young miss will definitely come, don’t worry.”
“I’m worried.”
Ning Shu spread out her hands. “There’s nothing you can do even if you worry.”
At this time, a maid came over, so Mei Wu shut his mouth. The maid said to Ning Shu, “Young Miss, the leader invites you to have a meal together.”
“Okay.” Ning Shu nodded, guessing that Ye Hua had something to ask her.
Truthfully speaking, Ning Shu didn’t like to eat with Ye Hua very much. When he was eating, he looked indifferent; when he talked, he seemed to be more dead than alive. Eating with him was not pleasant at all.
It actually gave her indigestion.
