Chapter 283 Chanting
Chapter 283 Chanting
Cheng Qiuyan smiled and said:
"Brother, why are you here to scare us again? We don't think the Black Tiger Gang you mentioned is that powerful? Even if we meet them, we are not afraid. Don't you still understand the strength of your two sisters? How can we deal with the Black Tiger Gang? We are a little cautious about demons, but if we deal with these ordinary bandits, we can easily capture them."
Li Kaiyang certainly believed in their strength. But they don't know that the Black Tiger Gang is actually the minions of the Black Devil. There are also light warriors among them, such as Fang Dahai. And there are people like Gao Bufan and Yuan Datou supporting them. If these people take action, even Li Kaiyang will have a hard time dealing with them, let alone their two little girls.
It was not convenient for Li Kaiyang to argue with them at this moment. What he wanted to do was to use this opportunity of chanting sutras to reconcile and resolve the conflict between Gu Xuejiao and Hailan.
He said to the two girls:
"I need one of you to help me with something?"
Gu Xuejiao said impatiently:
"Just tell me what's going on! Don't make us wait like this!"
"Hai Lan told me that the fourth golden bean was in a bottle in his house. He asked me and two other girls to chant sutras together, and the golden bean inside would come out."
As soon as she said this, Gu Xuejiao rushed to say:
"Okay, okay! Sister Qiuyan and I will accompany you to recite sutras!"
Li Kaiyang exclaimed when he heard this! He didn't expect both girls to come at the same time. So what to do?
Having to give them an answer, Li Kaiyang said embarrassedly:
"But I've already found someone, and now I'm still missing one. You two sisters can be anyone!"
Cheng Qiuyan understood eighty-nine times as soon as he heard this. He covered his nose and mouth with his hands and smiled knowingly. When he smiled, his big double-lidded eyes looked at Li Kaiyang with a strange brilliance, which made Li Kaiyang stunned. I feel a little hairy and itchy in my heart.
"Xuejiao, since he only wants one person, I think you can go alone!"
Gu Xuejiao frowned and asked:
"I'd really like to know who the person you found first is?"
Li Kaiyang was a little embarrassed to speak, so he said sarcastically:
"Yes, it's Xiaolan! You and she have a bit of a feud, but I hope you can cooperate well this time and resolve the previous conflicts."
What Li Kaiyang said was very pertinent. He carefully observed Gu Xuejiao's expression and found that her eyebrows were tightly knitted together. Li Kaiyang thought that this time it would be troublesome. It seemed that a big war was unavoidable. He began to make plans in his mind. What should I say to her and how to comfort her if she breaks out?
Unexpectedly, Gu Xuejiao was not angry at all! He smiled sweetly and said:
"Okay! Since you have found Xiaolan, I will cooperate with him to help you read."
After saying these words, Li Kaiyang's heart finally fell to the ground. He was a little worried about Gu Xuejiao at first, fearing that she would get angry as soon as he raised his opinion. Who knew that instead of getting angry, he was as obedient as a little sheep? .
The matter was solved and Li Kaiyang was in a very good mood. He took the two girls home and cooked some delicious dishes himself in the evening. In fact, Li Kaiyang had always cooked by himself when he was in the mountains, so although he didn't know many dishes, he was quite good at a few. Today he will stir-fry his favorite dishes, vinegared shredded potatoes. , Spicy three delicacies, scallions and yuba... These dishes are not new to everyone, but people are full of praise after tasting the taste.
Today, there are several people gathered around the table, which can be considered complete. Cheng Qiuyan, Gu Xuejiao, Hailan, Xiaolan, Liu Changqing, Qi Datang and Li Kaiyang himself, the seven of them happened to sit around the same table. Li Kaiyang took out the bamboo leaf green and let everyone drink it up.
Now everyone, men, women, old and young was in the mood, and they started drinking from cup to cup until late at night. At the wine table, everyone avoided sensitive topics, so on the surface it seemed quite harmonious. The next day Li Kaiyang and the others will start chanting sutras and praying.
Li Kaiyang invited this bottle from Hai Lan to his house. Then he asked Xiaolan to sit on his left and Gu Xuejiao on his right. The three of them held the Diamond Sutra in their hands and started reading. At first, the three of them read by themselves without interfering with each other. Later, Li Kaiyang suggested that the three of them should read with audio and at the same pace.
In this way, the effect is really good, and it can be heard very clearly both inside and outside the house. Several of them were chanting sutras, and those outside who were not chanting sutras also listened carefully. The entire courtyard is in a very harmonious state.
At this moment, the dispute between Gu Xuejiao and Xiaolan disappeared. They had forgotten the unpleasantness the day before yesterday. Completely immersed in the solemnity of chanting.
This sutra requires continuity, so you cannot sleep at night. If someone is really sleepy, someone must insist on it. The three of you can take turns to rest for a while. The same goes for eating. Some people are eating while others are chanting. Hai Lan has already explained this rule to them in advance.
On the first day, everyone insisted on being very good and orderly. When Li Kaiyang took a break, the two women insisted on reading, and when they took a break, Li Kaiyang himself was also vigorous and diligent.
Hailan paced back and forth in the yard paying attention to their progress. After the first day passed, Cheng Qiuyan asked Hailan:
"Sister, do you think they did it perfectly?"
Hai Lan's face was filled with the breath of youth. She was becoming more and more like a living person. Moreover, the beauty on her face was unmatched by any of them. Cheng Qiuyan asked her this, and she answered happily. :
"Of course they did very well, and I give them full marks. But it will be more difficult next time. Their energy was quite strong at the beginning, but I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on in the next two days."
Cheng Qiuyan is very confident in them. First of all, he has to believe that Li Kaiyang can do it. He is also confident in Gu Xuejiao. As for Xiaolan, his endurance may be higher than Gu Xuejiao, so Cheng Qiuyan is relieved.
At the beginning of the next day, the three of them persisted as usual, but they all felt very tired. Gu Xuejiao couldn't hold on anymore at first. It turned out that people were sitting on chairs, but then she couldn't stand it anymore and just lay down on the bed. At first Li Kaiyang thought he was taking a rest, but unexpectedly, three or four hours passed and he still didn't come to chant. This made Li Kaiyang very anxious. He hinted to Xiaolan to keep chanting, and then turned around and said to Gu Xuejiao:
"Girl, we can't stop, we mustn't let all our efforts go to waste!"
Gu Xuejiao said lazily:
"If I had known I was so tired, I might as well have let Cheng Qiuyan come! He has better willpower than me, so why don't I let him come in my place!"
People outside the window could hear his words clearly, and they heard Cheng Qiuyan shouting outside:
"Xuejiao, please stop fooling around. You can't change people casually. If you can't persist, you will really fail. Think about it, three days is not a long time. Just help Li Kaiyang and keep chanting."
What else could Gu Xuejiao do? Although she was unwilling, he still had to grit his teeth and persevere for the sake of a good beginning and a good end. He regretted his impulsiveness at that time. She was lying on the bed, but Xiaolan was still chanting sutras nonstop. At this time, there was a certain gap in her heart. Gu Xuejiao's eyes were stern, and she glanced at Xiaolan who was chanting sutras from time to time.
Xiaolan's mind was not entirely focused on reading the Bible. In fact, he also had opinions about Gu Xuejiao. He thought that this woman couldn't even hold on to such a small thing, so how could she be Li Kaiyang's girl friend?
The two people had psychological contradictions and conflicts, but no one showed it on the surface. Everyone knew each other tacitly, but internally they were in chaos.
In this state, they persisted until night, and Xiaolan was so tired that her eyes only twitched. But this girl was very strong and she gritted her teeth and persisted. Sometimes Li Kaiyang couldn't bear it anymore, so he called Xiao Lan and asked her to keep an eye on him. Xiao Lan quickly waved her hand and told Li Kaiyang to rest, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted.
Li Kaiyang was also so tired that he actually fell asleep. When he woke up at dawn, he thought to himself:
This is bad, this is bad, all efforts have been wasted, this will not succeed.
However, there are always unexpected things. As soon as Li Kaiyang fell asleep, the two girls persisted very well, and they used the technique of hanging the beam and stabbing the buttocks. Xiaolan tied her hair to the nearby bookshelf, and her scalp would be scratched whenever she dozed off.
And what about Gu Xuejiao's unique trick? Put a teacup on her knees. As soon as she dozes off, the water in the teacup will splash out. If the water splashes on her body, she will wake up immediately. The two of them actually persisted like this until dawn. Although they were very uncomfortable, they finally came over. The first thing Li Kaiyang did when he opened his eyes was to replace them.
"You guys go and get some sleep and let me continue chanting!"
When Li Kaiyang sat in his position and recited the sutra, the women on both sides leaned over and fell asleep snoring. Xiaolan grabbed the rope in Xi's hair with one hand and fell asleep without even untying it. The cup on Gu Xuejiao's lap didn't fall to the ground and broke into pieces. He didn't care about it and just closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Li Kaiyang marched forward bravely, and it was noon when a group of people chanted sutras. The two women on the left and right slept all morning, and they woke up only when it was time to eat. Naturally, someone specially brought the food. The two women asked Li Kaiyang to eat first, but Li Kaiyang asked them to eat before changing.
In the end, they argued but Li Kaiyang still ate first. In this way, the three of them ate their meals alternately. Hai Lan walked into their house for the first time and smiled happily when he saw the three people chanting sutras bravely and diligently.
She walked over to the bottle and looked inside. The expression on his face was one of surprise. Li Kaiyang knew there was good news when he saw his face, but this was only the second day, and there was still one day left.
Hai Lan turned around and the third person said:
"Well done to you, keep it up, your performance these two days has been pretty good. Tomorrow is the last day. I hope you will continue to work hard to achieve the final victory."
Gu Xuejiao felt a little impatient and said in her heart:
This person just eats cold food and doesn't care about the soreness, and he still comes here to be extremely poor. Do you understand our hard work? Do you know that if you have the ability, you will accompany us to chant sutras? You stay far away and come to us to comment. How can there be such a shameless person in the world?
Gu Xuejiao thought so in her heart but did not dare to say it. If she did, he would not be afraid of others, but afraid that Li Kaiyang would hate her for the first time. Gu Xuejiao has always been a person who is not annoying. He is innocent, lively, enthusiastic and generous, and has the advantages of all women. It is a pity that Li Kaiyang fell in love with Gu Xueying. If he had met Gu Xuejiao a day earlier, they would have fallen in love very quickly.
Hai Lan was afraid that they wouldn't be able to persist, so he came to encourage them. Li Kaiyang naturally knew what he meant. Of course, he also had confidence in himself and the two girls. The three of them successfully entered the third day, and everyone was exhausted. Is it so tiring even if you don't do physical work? You will know if you are tired or not. Mainly feeling extremely tired.
The three of them were chanting, and suddenly Xiaolan stood up and said:
"I don't want to miss it anymore. It's too tiring and uncomfortable! Don't leave. I want to get out of here!"
Li Kaiyang was startled by this sudden emotion. He didn't know how to persuade Xiaolan, and he didn't know why Xiaolan suddenly changed so quickly. Could it be because he figured something out in his mind?
Li Kaiyang has countless question marks in his heart. Who can finally answer these questions for him?
Xiaolan put on her coat and walked out. As soon as she reached the door, Hailan stopped him.
"Don't leave, I have something to say to you!"
Xiaolan didn't stop but walked out. At this time, Gu Xuejiao also stopped chanting and looked back at them. But Li Kaiyang remained motionless, his lips moved slightly, and the sound of chanting continued.
When Xiaolan walked into the yard, someone suddenly chased her and shouted to stop her.
"Wait a minute, I have something to say!"
This life worked. Xiaolan turned around and saw Gu Xuejiao, who was speaking. Why did Gu Xuejiao come out? Of course it was Hailan who asked her to come out. Hailan knew that someone had to tie the bell to untie it. Why Xiaolan couldn't sit still and wanted to leave? It was because he had a resentment in his heart. He spent a lot of time during the two days of chanting. With great willpower, they suppressed this resentment, but it was all temporary and short-lived. The two of them had to get rid of the poison in their hearts.
Xiaolan slowly turned to her and asked:
"Do you have anything to say to me?"
Gu Xuejiao walked up to her and said softly:
"I'm here to apologize to you. I was too reckless that day and said something I shouldn't have said. I'm a sister and you should forgive me!"
With just a few simple words, Xiaolan's heart was opened at that moment. Hai Lan, who was standing outside the house door, quickly waved to them:
"Hurry up and come back and recite sutras! We have reached a critical moment and we will succeed soon."
The two of them rushed back quickly and joined the chanting team again.
When the environment changes, the aura also changes. It is mainly people's state of mind that dominates everything. How could a few words turn their hostility into friendship?
