Fantasyland: Oriental Morning Star

It's just that once an idea arises, it's not so easy to dispel it.

The bits and pieces that I used to get along with Shenqi kept recalling in Qiming's heart, 'Shenqi... When will I find you?'

Then there are Suwako, Yakumo Murasaki, Yuka, and Eirin...... The faces of former family and friends appeared again and again. Two lines of tears appeared in the corners of Qiming's eyes.

Qin Xin's mask, who didn't know when he woke up, had already turned into a 'worried' expression, and his soft little hands kept caressing Qiming's forehead, as if he was sweeping away Qiming's sadness.

Feeling the care from his daughter, Qiming held the little hand, and then thanked her, "Thank you, Qin Xin, and you have been with you along the way." "

I don't know why Qiming said such a thing, and the mask changed from 'worry' to 'puzzlement'.

"Well, nothing. I'm fine, Qin Xin should go to bed early. Tomorrow there will be new friends with us. "

"Hmm" Seeing that Qiming said that he was fine, Qin Xin did not doubt his words. Soon took Qiming's hand and fell asleep.

'Really... I'm a father and I'm worried about my daughter. Quickly put that behind you and then close your eyes and go to sleep. Qiming believed that the day when he would meet everyone would not be far away.

...

"Disturbing the Qiming donor, I brought the White Lotus and the Life Lotus to you. Early in the morning, Master Su Zhen took the two of them to the guest room to look for Qiming.

"Have the two of them already figured it out?" Qiming pulled Qin Xin out of the guest room, while Qin Xin looked at what was happening outside with a 'curious' mask.

Hearing Qiming's words, Master Su Zhen smiled, and then took a step to the left, revealing the white lotus and the life lotus who were hiding behind him with some nervousness, "White lotus, life lotus." Why don't you come and meet your master?".

Hearing Master Su Zhen's words, the two of them hurriedly called Qiming at the same time, "Master", and then they were about to kneel and bow.

Qiming is not the kind of person who is rigid and has to bow to everything. Seeing that the two children were about to kneel and kowtow to themselves, Qiming hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the two and told them that as long as they respected in their hearts, it was okay.

"White Lotus, Life Lotus, you don't have to make such a big gift. Then he told them about the rest of the journey.

"In the next few days, I will take you all the way to Fujiwara-kyo. This is a long way to go, and you will encounter mountain bandits or monsters on the way. I hope you will persevere, no matter how much you have suffered. "

Hearing that Qiming said that they would suffer a lot, although the two of them were very worried about whether they could persevere, but when they thought of the prosperous scenery, they all gritted their teeth and agreed.

"Master, me and the White Lotus/Life Lotus will definitely be able to persevere!".

"Okay, in that case, let's say goodbye to Master Suzhen, and then we're going to go. After finishing speaking, Qiming pulled Qin Xin back to the house, leaving the rest of the time to the three of them.

From the time when Bai Lian and Ming Lian were sensible, Master Su Zhen brought them up. In addition to being a teacher who teaches Buddhism to him, he cares for them like his own father.

Now the two of them are leaving this small temple to see the wider landscape. After Qiming left, both of them couldn't control their emotions and threw themselves into Master Su Zhen's arms and cried.

Looking at the two who were crying, there was also a trace of reluctance in Master Su Zhen's eyes, and then gently patted their backs to comfort them.

"Father, why are they crying?" Hearing the crying from outside, Qin Xin asked Qiming with curiosity.

Holding Qin Xin's little hand, Qiming asked her, "If Qin Xin and I are separated one day, what kind of emotions will Qin Xin feel?"

As Qiming's words fell, a mask representing sadness 'mourning' appeared beside Qin Xin, "Father, don't leave me..."

Feeling that something seemed wrong with the situation, Qiming hurriedly comforted her, "Don't worry, Qin Xin is so cute, how could I leave you alone?" As if he was afraid that Qin Xin would not believe it, Qiming also hugged her into his arms.

Feeling Qiming's warm chest and extremely serious emotions, Qin Xin wrapped his hands around his neck and responded with "um", and at the same time, the masks of 'shyness' and 'happiness' appeared beside Qin Xin at the same time.

Before parting, Master Su Zhen gave Qiming a stone bowl that emitted the light of the Buddha, although he didn't know what Master Su Zhen was doing for himself, but Qiming still put the stone pot into the space.

......

"Do no evil, do all good, purify oneself..."

This is the attitude that all Buddhisms teach sentient beings, especially people, to treat cause and effect correctly. Although everything is like a mirror, the karma is clear and not happy at all. The so-called 'you can't take anything away, only karma can be taken with you'".

It's been a week since they said goodbye to Master Suzhen, and Qiming and his party have officially embarked on the journey to Fujiwara-kyo.

Although Qiming didn't think it was a good thing to let Bai Lian and Minglian practice Buddhism, he also talked to them about other religions on the way. But in the end, the two chose Buddhism.

What Bai Lian and Ming Lian didn't expect was that they didn't suffer a lot along the way, as the master said.

And it seems that he is afraid that he will feel tired, so the chef will basically find a place for everyone to rest every two hours, and will prepare a hearty meal for everyone during the meal.

And every meal is not the same, and the two who have been living a poor life are completely overwhelmed when they encounter such a scene at first.

Later, with the passage of time and Qiming's ideological education, the two gradually became familiar with this kind of life.

Of course, every time before eating, I will wait for Qiming to start eating before starting to eat. Then, after some repairs, Qiming will also start to talk about some Buddhist concepts.

In particular, the life lotus, whether it is the understanding of the concept or the ability to draw inferences, makes Qiming sigh that "the life lotus will definitely become a Buddha in the future".

Compared with the life lotus, the white lotus seems to be a little 'stupid' towards the Dharma. Of course, Qiming doesn't blame Bai Lian for this, it's just that he spends more time on Bai Lian's body on weekdays.

It is precisely because of Qiming's patient teaching and care. Both Bai Lian and Ming Lian respect this master from the bottom of their hearts.

......

A month later, outside a small village called Kihara Village. Seeing that it was dark outside, Qiming planned to stay here for one night.

"The matter of the negotiation between the White Lotus and the Destiny Lotus will be left to you. The task of negotiating with the village chief was called to the two, and Qiming stayed outside with Qin Xin.

"Yes, master. After the two responded to Qiming, they walked towards the village.

Seeing that the two had already walked away, Qiming pulled Qin Xin and asked her in a low voice, "Qin Xin, do you feel anything?"

"There is the breath of a monster, why let the White Lotus and the Life Lotus go. "The mask has become 'worried' and 'curious' Qin Xin felt the demonic aura when he approached the village, and he usually had a good relationship with Bai Lian and Life Lotus, so Qin Xin would naturally be worried about them.

"Don't worry, Qin Xin, it's just a medium-sized monster, whether it's a white lotus or a life lotus, it can be easily solved. Qiming also took this opportunity to let the two of them use Buddhism to solve this monster, and by the way, they will make a name for themselves in the future.
