Chapter 336 The Cannon Fodder Flower Demon of the Abstinent Buddha 8
*
In the evening, the courtyard kitchen was filled with vegetarian meals prepared by Bai Yu and Ye Yu.
As Yun Wu was a temporary resident here... no, a demon, it was natural for her to go over and help out, even though Bai Yu and Ye Yu didn't want her to do the rough work.
Yun Wu was sitting next to the kitchen, playing with a vegetable leaf in her hand.
She thought about the reason why her seduction plan failed before it was officially implemented yesterday.
It seemed that she was too impatient. She should spend more time with Wuxu Fuzi and get some distance between them so that the seduction plan could proceed smoothly.
"Miss Yun? Miss Yun?"
Bai Yu called out twice in succession, and Yun Wu finally came back to her senses, still holding the wilted vegetable leaves in her hand.
"Today, a Taoist priest from Shushan came to the Buddhist temple. He said he had followed the spider monster all the way here and stayed in the Bodhi Temple for a few days."
"Spider demon?"
Yun Wu was surprised. She had been transformed for half a year and had not found any monster other than herself near the Bodhi Temple.
The spider demon must have been chased by the Shushan Taoist Mu Xun somewhere else and fled all the way to Mount Putuo, so the Shushan Taoist also followed.
The little lotus demon shuddered, and the "spider demon" felt horrified just by hearing the word.
"I don't know if spiders eat lotus flowers, I guess they don't..."
"What is Miss Yun talking about?"
Ye Yu, who was passing by, asked softly. Yun Wu quickly shook her head. Ye Yu thought she was a little scared and comforted her:
"Evil things cannot enter the Buddhist temple. Don't worry, young lady. Buddhist disciples are very good at studying Buddhism. There will be no danger."
"it is good……"
Yun Wu nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and lowered her head guiltily to play with the water in the wooden bowl.
Because she is a real little lotus demon, although Lingzhi and her younger brother said that they have never seen a demon like her who can enter and leave the Buddhist temple freely.
After the vegetarian dinner was ready, Yun Wu took it to Chu Wuxu's meditation room.
"Buddha, it's me."
She knocked on the door with some difficulty, holding two bowls of vegetarian noodles in her hand, and the door opened quickly.
Chu Wuxu changed into a plain cassock and raised his hand to take the plain noodles from Yun Wu's hand.
Yun Wu rubbed her sore wrist and followed in. She wanted to stay close to Fuzi and have dinner with him.
Chu Wuxu didn't like to talk much. He put his plain face on the table with a proper manner.
"Master Buddha, I accidentally soiled your robes yesterday. I have washed them and will return them to you tomorrow."
Yun Wu sat down on the mat opposite Chu Wuxu and said, waving at him apologetically.
Chu Wuxu's expression did not change much. He raised his hand and placed the wooden chopsticks next to Yun Wu's hand and asked:
“Why is it dirty?”
"I fell asleep last night while pressing down on the Buddhist monk's robe. When I woke up this morning, I found it wrinkled. I even accidentally stepped on it several times in my dream..."
Yun Wu said this while sitting on the futon in an orderly manner. Chu Wuxu paused holding the wooden chopsticks and his eyes darkened.
"It doesn't matter."
Yun Wu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Chu Wuxu didn't mind that she slept wrapped in his robes.
Just when we were having vegetarian meal, someone suddenly knocked on the door twice.
"Buddha, the Taoist priest who entered the temple today came and said he wanted to see you to discuss something important."
"Let them in."
Chu Wuxu put down his wooden chopsticks and said, he slowly raised his hand and wiped his thin lips with the clean handkerchief beside him.
Monks should eat less dinner and not too much, so he only ate a few bites and then stopped.
After hearing that Mu Xun and Dong Zhiyi were coming to pay a visit to the Buddhist disciple, Yun Wu suddenly felt that the vegetarian noodles in the bowl were no longer fragrant.
She quickly and quietly raised her right wrist and touched the string of Bodhi beads on her head, and then she felt a lot more at ease.
The next second, the door was knocked again, and Mu Xun and Dong Zhiyi entered the meditation room.
They probably didn't expect that Yun Wu was also here, and was having dinner with Wuxu Buddhist.
"Amitabha."
Chu Wuxu sat cross-legged on the futon, raised the hand with the Buddhist beads hanging on it and said:
"Are you two here because of the spider demon that escaped to Mount Putuo?"
"What Wuxu Buddha said is true."
Mu Xun bowed and said, Dong Zhiyi beside him was amazed that the Buddhist had actually guessed the purpose of her and Mu Xun's visit.
But what caught her eyes even more was Wuxu Fuzi's appearance, which was even more handsome than the top scholar she had seen parading in the streets before.
"That spider monster is very difficult to deal with. I would like to ask the Buddhist disciple for help. The golden staff of the Buddhist disciple Wuxu has the Buddha's light, which will definitely be able to eliminate the monster."
"Yes, Fozi, that spider monster is very good at hiding. Xun and I chased it all the way from Nan County."
Dong Zhiyi said from the side. Hearing her affectionately calling him "Axun", Mu Xun frowned but did not refute.
"In a Buddhist temple, we don't kill innocent people. If it never hurts anyone and just wants to live a good life, the Buddha is merciful and will not forgive an evil demon, but will never kill a good demon either."
Chu Wuxu said while twisting the Buddhist beads, his beautiful eyes showed no sadness or joy, and the cinnabar mole between his eyebrows was eye-catching.
"I have no ties with the Shushan demon-killing sect, so please do as you wish."
What the Buddha meant was that he would not help them deal with the spider monster.
Yun Wu sat beside her and ate the last bit of plain noodles in her bowl, nodding frantically in her heart at Chu Wuxu's words.
The Taoist priests who hunt demons can all smell whether a demon has harmed anyone, but few of them care about that. If it is a demon, they will kill it.
Yun Wu drank the vegetarian noodle soup with tears in her eyes, not leaving a single drop.
Since she transformed into a little lotus demon, she has never killed any living being. She only eats vegetarian food in the temple and just wants to live a good life.
"This spider monster is hiding on Mount Putuo. I don't know when it will come down the mountain to harm people. As a member of the Bodhi Temple, shouldn't Wuxu Buddhist be responsible for eliminating this evil for the people?"
Dong Zhiyi raised her hand and gestured twice and said that this was also the reason why she followed Mu Xun to travel the world with a sword.
She was nearly eaten by a monster, but Mu Xun drew his sword and saved her, so she secretly ran away from home and traveled the world with him.
Chu Wuxu did not answer, his expression remained unchanged, and his eyes fell on Yun Wu, who was sitting on the mat and eating plain noodles.
There was still some soup on the corner of her lips. Chu Wuxu raised his hand and picked up a clean handkerchief and handed it to her.
"Clean."
"Thank you, Buddha..."
Yun Wu's voice was soft. She touched her bulging belly with one hand and used the other hand to carefully wipe the corners of her lips with the handkerchief.
She felt that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, so she stood up, straightened her clothes and said:
"I'll go make tea for the Buddha first..."
I watched the little lotus demon's fleeing figure disappear at the door of the room.
Chu Wuxu then withdrew his gaze, twirling the Buddhist beads in one hand and staying out of the matter, still with no intention of helping Mu Xun and Dong Zhiyi.
Dong Zhiyi, who was carefree, couldn't wait any longer and said angrily:
"You are a Buddhist who saves all living beings. Everyone says you are a natural born Buddhist. How amazing! Xun wants to get rid of the spider monster for the sake of the people around Mount Putuo!"
