Chapter 7024
Though his energy levels have faded, his passion for Buddhism remains undiminished.
His disciples once showed him a video of Master Jingqing giving a lecture,
And Kongyin was deeply impressed by his profound understanding of the Dharma.
Convinced that after 110 years of monastic life,
His understanding of the Dharma was still only 60% or 70% of Jingqingβs.
He resolutely decided to accept Jingqing as his teacher, his final guide.
Last year, Kongyin personally traveled to Putuo Mountain,
Ostensibly to facilitate a Buddhist exchange between Chinese and Japanese monks,
But in reality, to meet with Jingqing and personally propose his discipleship.
Jingqing initially declined, but Kongyin, deeply captivated by his exposition of the Dharma,
Not only knelt before Jingqing and pleaded,
But also solemnly accepted the position in front of both Chinese and Japanese media.
Kongyinβs actions werenβt meant to be morally coercive.
He was a leading figure in Japanese Buddhist scholarship, and publicly accepting the young Jingqingβs apprenticeship would have lowered his stature.
However, he remained unconcerned, believing firmly in the proverb, βIf one hears the truth in the morning, one can die in the evening.β
He hoped that in his final years, he would have the opportunity to comprehend the most profound Buddhist teachings currently available.
After all, the Buddhist scriptures, dating back thousands of years, were no longer accessible to everyone.
The more profound oneβs study, the deeper oneβs understanding.
And like the practice of Buddhism,
Even a mere level of advancement can make a world of difference.
Jingqing feared Kongyinβs actions would cause too much noise and draw unnecessary attention,
So he reluctantly agreed to accept Kongyin as an unofficial disciple,
Teaching him the Dharma while keeping their master-disciple relationship secret.
Kongyin had been practicing Buddhism for 110 years and was extremely devout.
Since Jingqing had agreed to teach him the Dharma,
He fully complied with all his requests.
Thus, no one outside the temple knew that the two, despite a significant age difference of several decades,
Actually had a master-disciple relationship.
A few days ago, upon learn
He immediately arranged for its reconstruction and reserved one of its most secluded courtyards for Jingqing.
Not only did he refrain from visiting,
But he also strictly prohibited anyone else in the temple from approaching.
Margaret and Sister Sunβs group temporarily took up residence there.
At that moment, Jingqing was discussing Buddhism with Kongyin in his meditation room.
Margaret was alone in the courtyard,
Lost in thought as he gazed at the newly sprouted old pine trees.
Sister Sun crossed the corridor in the courtyard and walked quickly to the front.
She whispered respectfully, βMadam, Leon has taken off and is expected to arrive in Osaka in eight hours.β
βI have arranged for someone to pick him up and bring him to Kyoto as soon as possible.β
Margaret nodded and asked, βWhatβs going on with Charlie?β
Sister Sun said, βHe has arranged for many people to investigate in China.β
βAnd the Ito family has also sent a number of ninjas to help.β
Margaret said lightly, βIt doesnβt matter.β
βLet them investigate.β
βNo matter how they investigate, the clues will be broken at several key points.β
βWith so many circuit breakers, itβs impossible for all of them to fail.β
Sister Sun added, βBut I just heard that Inspector Li left Houston for Melbourne.β
Margaret frowned slightly and blurted out,
βInspector Li? Duncan Li?β
βYes!β
Sister Sun nodded. βThe young master saved his life.β
βI think now is the time for him to repay his kindness.β
Margaret pursed her lips for a moment and said solemnly,
βDuncan is in trouble.β
βFor him, as long as he has enough time, any case can be solved.β
βInvestigating us should not be a difficult task.β
βWith his ability, one or two years is enough.β
Sister Sun said worriedly,
βOne or two years is too short a time window.β
βThe possibility of the young master surpassing the Warriors Den in one or two years is very smallβ¦β
Margaret smiled and said, βIt doesnβt matter.β
βDuncan is a smart man.β
βIf he really finds our actual clues,β
βI will go to see him. He will always give me a face.β
At this point, her expression froze, and she said solemnly,
βNo matter what, it is most important not to delay Charlieβs development.β
βVictoria doesnβt have much time left.β
βShe will only become crazier and more crazy and hysterical in the future.β
βCharlie must be fully prepared.β
βOtherwise, once she is determined to do whatever she wants,β
βThe An family and the Wade family will become her targets!β
