His disciples had once shown him videos of Master Jing Qing preaching the Dharma, and his profound understanding of Buddhism greatly shocked Kong Yin.
Kong Yin believed that he had been a monk for one hundred and ten years, but his understanding of Buddhism was far less than sixty or seventy percent of Jing Qing’s. Thus, he resolutely decided to take Jing Qing as his master, letting him be his final guide.
Last year, Kong Yin personally went to Mount Putuo. Nominally it was an exchange of Buddhism between monks from China and Japan, but actually it was to use this as an opportunity to meet Jing Qing, thereby proposing the request to become his disciple in person.
Jing Qing originally did not want to accept, but Kong Yin was extremely obsessed with the Buddhism he analysed, not only kneeling in front of Jing Qing to plead, but even wanting to solemnly become Jing Qing’s disciple in front of media from both China and Japan.
Kong Yin did this not to morally blackmail. Originally he was the pillar of Japan’s Buddhist community. If he really became a disciple of the young Jing Qing in public, it would be equivalent to lowering the stature of the entire Japanese Buddhist community, but he still did not care, because he deeply believed in a Chinese saying, that is, to hear the Dao in the morning and die in the evening.
He hoped that in his last life, he would have the opportunity to comprehend the most profound Buddhism at the present stage.
After all, the Buddhist scriptures from thousands of years ago are not something anyone can understand. The more profound the research, the deeper the comprehension, and Buddhism is like cultivation. Do not look at just being one level deeper than others, that is also worlds apart.
Jing Qing was afraid that Kong Yin would really do this, make too much noise and attract unnecessary attention, so he helplessly agreed privately to accept Kong Yin as an unregistered disciple, to teach him Buddhism, but not to reveal the master-disciple relationship.
Kong Yin had studied Buddhism for one hundred and ten years, extremely devout to Buddhism. Since Jing Qing promised to teach him Buddhism, he completely complied with other requirements, so no one outside knew that the two, with an age difference of several decades, actually had a master-disciple relationship.
A few days ago, upon learning that Jing Qing hoped to come to Kinkaku-ji for secluded cultivation for a period, he immediately arranged for Kinkaku-ji’s repair, and left one of the most hidden courtyards for Jing Qing, and not only did he not visit to disturb, but also strictly forbade others in the temple from approaching.
An Chengqi and Sister Sun’s group were temporarily staying here.
At this time, Jing Qing was exchanging Buddhism with Kong Yin at his meditation place, An Chengqi was alone in the courtyard, gazing at the ancient pine with new tender buds in a daze.
Sister Sun passed through the courtyard corridor, quickly came to the front, respectfully said in a low voice. “Madam, Sihai has already taken off, expected to arrive in Osaka in eight hours. I have arranged people to pick him up, and bring him to Kyoto at the first time.”
An Chengqi nodded, asked her. “On Chen’er’s side, is there any movement?”
Sister Sun said. “A lot of people have been arranged to investigate in China, the Ito family has also sent many ninjas to help.”
An Chengqi said indifferently. “It does not matter, let them investigate. No matter how they investigate, the clues will break at several key points. With so many fuse mechanisms, it is impossible for all to fail.”
Sister Sun said again. “But this subordinate just heard that Inspector Li has set off from Houston to fly to Melbourne.”
An Chengqi frowned slightly, blurted out. “Inspector Li? Li Yalin?”
“Yes!” Sister Sun nodded. “The young master saved his life, presumably now is also the time for him to repay the favour.”
An Chengqi pursed her lips for a moment, said with a solemn expression. “Yalin is a trouble. For him, as long as there is enough time, any case can ultimately be solved. Investigating us, presumably is not difficult. With his ability, one or two years is enough.”
Sister Sun said worriedly. “One or two years, the time window is too short. The young master wants to surpass the Po Qing Society in one or two years, the possibility is minimal…”
An Chengqi smiled slightly. “No harm, Yalin is a smart person. If he really touches our actual clues, I will go to see him in person. My face, he will always give.”
Speaking of this, her expression turned stern, said solemnly. “No matter what, we must not delay Chen’er’s development. That is the most important. Wu Feiyan does not have much time left. In the future, she will only become more and more crazy, more and more hysterical. Chen’er must make sufficient preparations, otherwise, once Wu Feiyan goes all out, the An family, the Ye family, will all become objects for her to level!”
