Senior Superstar

The skill dream continues.

A Cai, who was selected by the courtesan of the brothel, came to the Dahuai'en Temple with the sisters and children in the float.

Ever since Ah Cai was secretly born in the hut without the knowledge of the bustard, this was the first time she saw such a lively scene.

The hundred-gold lottery in Cao Yamen has attracted all the oirans in Goulan, and wherever there are beautiful women in the world, there is no shortage of men.

Dozens of well-dressed and ostentatious brothels gathered here, making the incense in Huai'en Temple even tinged with rouge. Around the entire temple, it was bustling with people like going to a market.

The temple in Nuo Da was already crowded with people who came to see if the eminent monk could resist the style of the top sister.

"There are too many people here! I can't even see what Zhibei looks like. They say that among the monks of this generation, Master Zhibei is second to none in terms of appearance and talent. I don't know if it is true or not."

"Oh, I'm afraid you have heard too little. I heard that Zhibei is the younger brother of the current emperor, and the late emperor especially dotes on him. It's just that he was obsessed with Buddhism when he was young and became a monk after the late emperor passed away. If not, I'm afraid it's in the Golden Palace..."

"Speak carefully! Now that the holy dragon is not in good health, is this kind of thing talking nonsense?"

"Ah, yes yes yes. You see, I drank too much wine in the afternoon and felt a little dizzy. I will take my leave first, I will take my leave first!"

Amidst the noisy discussions around, A Cai followed the top sign in the brothel and walked towards the lecture hall. When the surrounding crowd saw her going, they gave way one after another.

But at this time, Ah Caixin was no longer here.

He could even hear A Cai's beating heart beating like a drum. Through her perspective, Li Shixin seemed to see a small beast that was caught by a hunter and was always ready to escape, looking for a way out.

Finally, when dozens of oirans gathered in front of the lecture hall, ready to show off their magical powers to seduce the eminent monk and return to the secular world, A Cai sneaked into the crowd while the two tortoises around her were not paying attention.

The hustle and bustle around seemed to stop the moment she left the brothel team.

Only the heart that seemed to be jumping out of the chest at that moment, and those little feet that ran faster and faster...

"Ah Cai! Where did you go to die?!"

"Damn, people ran away!"

"Look! There are so many people, she can't run far? I found it and broke the legs of that lowly maid!"

A burst of shouting and cursing sounded from beside A Cai who was hiding in the dark of the temple and was shaking all over.

...

Before I knew it, it was getting dark.

A lowly maid from a brothel ran away, which was just a small wave in the events of the day.

In the evening, Master Zhibei finished the whole volume of "Heart Sutra" among dozens of famous prostitutes who were the most talented and beautiful in the capital, and used all kinds of means, whether elegant or vulgar, and debated with the abbot of Da Huai'en Temple. After two hours, the anecdote of the beautiful woman who looked at the female face like dung without looking sideways during the period has spread throughout the capital.

But in Zhibei's monk's house, Zhibei's scriptures have not been debated yet.

"Female benefactor, the Buddhist gate of Dahuai'en Temple is pure. If you also came here for the hundred gold reward, then the poor monk would like to persuade the benefactor, don't waste your efforts. The poor monk is dedicated to the Buddha, and the pink skull is in the eyes of the poor monk." There is no difference. Female benefactor, please go back."

Looking at the monk in front of him who was dressed in a white monk robe, with his eyes slightly closed under a big bald head, holding a rosary in his hand and constantly moving the monk, Ah Cai, who found a place to hide in a hurry, stopped trembling.

"Master, I'm just a little servant girl in the brothel. I didn't come here to seduce the master, and I never want the reward of a hundred gold. I just couldn't stand the beatings of the old bustard and the turtle, so I escaped during the puja. Please don't Zhang Sheng, let me hide here for a few days, and I will leave when the limelight passes! Master, if I am captured, I will die! I beg you to hold me high and save my life!"

The girl kneeling in front of her begging for mercy just made Zhibei lower her eyelids: "Amitabha, the benefactor, all the mirrors in the root, body, and vessel world are empty flowers and moons. Obsessed with calculations, it is all futile. Buddhism is pure. , I can’t keep you, you’d better go.”

"Master, I really didn't lie to you! If you drive me away, I will really die!"

"Amitabha. People in the world have many lives, and they are predestined. Destiny cannot be violated."

"If caught, I will be beaten to death!"

"I wish the benefactor a good birth in the next life."

Seeing the monk in front of her face her begging, calm, A Cai, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned: "Do you think that I am lying, playing tricks, and plotting against you?"

"Amitabha. If the almsgiver doesn't leave, the poor monk will call someone."

At this moment, the voice of night watch novice came from outside the door.

Seeing Zhibei with a Buddha face in front of him got up to open the door, A Cai, who managed to get out of the clutches of the devil, couldn't help laughing bitterly: "I thought there was a Buddha in this temple, and the Buddha could save me, so I took the risk to hide here. It turns out it's all fake. Yes, the Buddha is also a liar, even the Buddha is unwilling to pay attention to a lowly maid in a brothel. Monk, what you said at the Dharma conference is all lies!"

"I knelt down in your room all afternoon to pay homage to the Buddha statue, begging to avoid disasters. But you told me that the world has many lives, destiny is destined, and destiny cannot be violated. Even the robber knows how to use people's money to eliminate disasters for others The truth. But you told me, the Buddha cultivates the afterlife?"

Hearing this, Zhibei paused.

"My Buddha is neither good nor evil, and only treats all beings equally."

"You fart! All living beings are equal, why are there Bodhisattvas, Bhikshus, and Dharma protectors? Why are there still abbots and monks in this temple? Born to endure severe beatings and being bullied?!"

laugh.

With a question, A Cai lifted up her sleeves.

Seeing the criss-crossing welts on her arms, new wounds and old scars intertwined, Zhibei's hand that opened the door paused slightly.

The novice outside the door walked by talking and laughing, but the door of the monk's house was still closed.

...

Zhibei stayed in the capital for seven days.

Within seven days, dozens of top names in Goulan arrived every day, and left disappointed after exhausting their coquettishness every day.

By the eighth day, the names of eminent monks in Zhibei had spread throughout the capital.

It was also on this day that Zhibei packed up his luggage and said goodbye to A Cai who had been hiding in the monk's house for eight days.

"The poor monk is leaving."

"Where is master going?"

"Maybe it's the ends of the earth, maybe it's the bliss of the West."

"Can you take me with you?"

"You are a woman. It is inconvenient for a poor monk to travel around with you."

A Cai wrinkled her nose and smiled in front of Zhibei who didn't even look at her.

"I'm a woman, but I could be anyone!"

Under Zhibei's puzzled eyes, A Cai opened the wooden box she had not forgotten even when she ran away. In front of Zhibei, he took out a brush, makeup powder and spatula one by one from inside.

After a while, A Cai disappeared.

A bald monk with delicate features appeared in front of Zhibei.

"you……"

Seeing A Cai who has completely changed, even the hideous birthmarks around her eyes disappeared, Zhibei, who has always been calm, widened his eyes.

"It's all false. My mother said, my life is cheap, and I was born in the land of fireworks. But my life is already cheap, so I can no longer cry like her. I will never be innocent in this life. So from the time I was born In a moment, my appearance was ruined. Before she died, she taught me the makeup techniques she had collected all her life, so that I would be an ugly but clean maidservant no matter what, and find a chance to escape and find a Good man...and...then..."

Looking at Zhibei who was frowning, Ah Cai grinned: "Anyway, I escaped now, you are a good person. Let me follow you! I will carry sutras in your backpack and do laundry for you. How about accepting an apprentice?"

"Amitabha. You are a woman."

"The Buddha said that all living beings are equal!"

"Amitabha, you...are making too much sense."

"If you don't agree, I'll call someone now to let everyone in the capital know that Master Zhibei, who is famous all over the capital, has been hiding a woman in the monk's house these days!"

"Amitabha, you... are unreasonable."

"I am a woman!"

"Oh, forget it."

On the same day, Master Zhibei left the capital with a young novice monk. Holding the degree guide, he wandered along the official road all the way.

Following A Cai's perspective, Li Shixin observed silently.

Different from the dull time in the brothel before, on this journey, Ah Cai fixed up her makeup every day and maintained a novice face to deceive all the passers-by she met. During the day, she carried her luggage on the way to Huazhai and recited Buddha, and at night, she chanted scriptures, washed clothes and did homework. It's still hard work, but there are colors in her vision.

Although I recite the Buddha's name and recite the Buddhist scriptures, my heart is still ordinary.

I don't know what is the later period, when A Cai was walking, she fell down because she stared more and more at the back of that stalwart. When doing laundry, he often becomes obsessed with clothes that smell of him.

This kind of liking is not always quiet.

When the monk was not paying attention, she carved the name "A Cai" in the wooden fish that the monk held in his arms and knocked every day.

Occasionally, he would be bolder and ask some outrageous questions: "Hey, are you really not tempted by any woman in this world?"

"In my eyes, pink is no different from a skeleton."

That night, A Cai painted her face as a skeleton and got into the monk's room.

The monk was so scared that he peed his pants.

Occasionally, A Cai will make trouble.

"Monk, you recite scriptures every day, when will you be a head? Why don't you stop reciting and take a good look at me. I can draw what kind of pink powder you like!"

"Amitabha. Have you seen this rosary? Every time I recite all the Buddhist scriptures, I will throw out a bead. After one hundred and eight beads are turned around, I will dial this number bead. The eighteen number beads are full. I won't read it anymore."

"Have you read enough?"

"No, it's done. At that time, I will completely get rid of the mortal mind and become a Buddha."

"The year of the monkey and the month of the horse?"

"Someday."

"Otherwise, before that, you try to be vulgar?"

"You go, go now, hire a carriage and go!"

"Okay, okay, I'm kidding you!"

In this way, more than a year of peaceful life passed in a flash.

Suddenly one day, soldiers suddenly appeared on the official road, disrupting the peace.

The folks began to spread the news that the ministers colluded with the leading marshal to initiate a palace coup. The current emperor has passed away and all the royal family have been beheaded.

Then from A Cai's perspective, Li Shixin saw that Zhibei, who had always been neither sad nor happy, showed panic after hearing the news.

Just as Zhibei packed his bags overnight and was about to go to a remote place in the countryside, a notice with his face appeared on the street.

The handwriting of the rebels is much more generous than that of the original prince.

A living Zhibei is worth a hundred pieces of fertile land, and a dead Zhibei is worth a thousand pieces of gold.

"The monk on the notice is here!"

In the inn.

Hearing the voices outside, Zhibei couldn't help laughing miserably.

"Ah Cai, let's go. You should already know my identity. Staying here will only lead to death."

Looking out the window at the people holding sickles and forks, their eyes full of greed and their faces glowing red, Zhibei recited a Buddha's mantra.

behind, no response.

"A Cai, did you hear that?"

bump.

When he turned back, a vase fell on his big bald head.

"you……"

Following Ah Cai's perspective, Li Shixin rolled his eyes at Zhibei and fell to the ground.

Amid the cheers of the people, A Cai opened the wooden box again.

In the bronze mirror, the resolute and smiling novice, with the waving of the brush, turned into the unconscious Zhibei lying on the ground.

Then, Zhibei, who was lying unconscious on the ground, turned into a novice with the waving of the brush.

Looking at Zhibei who has become a novice, Ah Cai smiled.

"My mother said before she died, let me be an ugly but clean maidservant no matter what, find a chance to escape and find a good man, and then stay with him no matter what. She said that life is not long , as long as you can be clean, you can love someone boldly..."

On this day, the small town was in a carnival.

Because everyone caught the remnant of the former royal family who was offered a huge reward by the new emperor. It is said that he is the monk Zhibei who is the younger brother of the former emperor.

As for the novice monk who was not mentioned in the notice, he was thrown out of the inn.

The next day, the town was in panic.

A group of ignorant people were sent to prison for the crime of deceiving the emperor. The medical examiner returned to the state capital cursing with a head with ferocious ghost claws on its eyes.

On the balcony of Lake Cloud Villa.

Li Shixin touched his neck and slowly opened his eyes.

It's been like this three times.

Dare to lose your love means you have to experience a ghost gate, right?

Next time, can you have a one that is not lost, Hun Dan!

drop!

[Lost Makeup Technique] The skill dream is over, and the skill has been fully mastered.

Explanation: The real ingenuity is to make yourself the most beautiful person, or let your sweetheart see the most beautiful self? Perhaps, neither.

After seeing a suffix after seeing the description, Li Shixin frowned, and silently extracted the string of beads from the system.

Sure enough, the instructions for the rosary had also changed.

[Sandalwood Old Rosary Beads] X1, Explanation: The Buddha said that the five aggregates are all empty before you can let go of your obsessions. But there are some obsessions that even the Buddha can't let go of. So 108 beads, one is missing.

Just as Li Shixin was gently twisting the rosary in his hands, forcing his eyes to recall the drips in his dream, An Xiaoxiao came downstairs with a bluff.

"Guys, I, An Xiaoxiao, worked hard today. As long as you pay more than 420,000 followers, I'll broadcast live streaming myself tomorrow!"

well,

This silly.
