Chapter 44: Always replace old talismans with new ones

"What? You want me to study? You also want to read Buddhist classics?"

Chai Asi was about to cry but had no tears: "Your Majesty, I am living in the Tao and I still want to study. If word gets out, other monsters will laugh at me to death. Do I still want to lose face?"

"Does it give you face to slap you with my big mouth?"

Chai Asi cried on the spot: "Your Majesty! I am full of all five poisons and do all kinds of evil. I still want to marry a wife. The Chai family has no heir, so I don't want to be a monk!"

"Letting you read Buddhist classics does not mean that you are allowed to become a monk." The great voice in the mirror said, "Of all those who have reached the top, who has not learned all the Dharma and understood the truth of the world? I was here back then.

It was also because of his persistence in reading, his keenness and eagerness to learn that he achieved his later achievements. How dare you slack off now, you ignorant little devil?"

After being scolded, Chai Asi still had a grimace on his face: "Sir, it's not that the little demon doesn't want to learn. It's just that I heard that Buddhism talks about sudden enlightenment. With my understanding, if all the four elements suddenly become empty and I become a Buddha immediately, what will happen to me?"

What should I do with Qing? What should I do with Zhu Lanruo?"

The great ancient god almost laughed out of anger: "You can rest assured, I won't save fools."

If it were so simple to become a Buddha immediately, your superior would even think about it! It is right to quickly gain strength and return to the present world if the rules are clear and the rules are not clear.

How many faces does your Chai Asi have? After practicing until now, you can barely match the strength of a demon soldier, but you want to become a Buddha immediately?

Chai Asi cried sadly: "Sir, you said that the little demon should only believe in his own sword and his own way. The little demon is following the oracle. Now he can't believe in the Buddha at all. If you have to let the little demon believe in something, the little demon will

The demon only wants to believe in you..."

The voice in the mirror said: "I want you to learn Buddhist scriptures, understand Buddhism's view of the world, and enhance your path to becoming a strong person... I don't want you to believe in it."

The great ancient gods have been so earnest in their words, but Chai Asi is still reluctant: "Is there a possibility...that I can become stronger without reading Buddhist scriptures?"

The great ancient god was angry: "You won't listen to me?"

Chai Asi had no choice but to tell the truth: "The main reason is that the little demon characters are poorly understood. As for those Buddhist scriptures, those who can understand them can't afford them, and those who can afford them can't understand them... What can I do?"

The demon clan has always regarded itself as the master of the present world and the bell of heaven and earth. Therefore, the official language is Taoist language, and the official writing is Taoist text. If you listen, you will know the meaning, and if you see it, you will understand.

This way is the way of the Great Dao, the way of the human race, but it is just a stolen name.

But after all, Taoist language and writing require a certain level of cultivation before you can explain it.

It cannot be said that the majority of demons just keep their mouths shut and do not speak. They also communicate in a unified demon language, but the accents of each species are different.

However, in terms of ordinary writing, there are all kinds of strange things, and the various attributes are not unified... After all, there is Taoism. After all, the demon clan is born with Taoism, and it is relatively easy to grow up in the early stage. For ordinary writing, the senior leaders of the demon clan don't seem to think so.

Is there any need for unification?

For Chai Asi, Taoist classics were too expensive and out of reach. Unless the Supreme Master asked him to read Buddhist scriptures, he could only read some Buddhist scriptures translated from dog-like characters. And he didn’t even know much about dog-like characters.

, Buddhist scriptures have always been obscure and difficult to understand.

The great ancient god comforted him and said: "You can explore the history of the development of Buddhism and collect Buddhist classics. If you don't understand anything, I will explain it to you."

It seems like I need to learn the writing of the dog tribe... just to enrich my knowledge.

Why is it so tiring to be an ancient god?

Mr. Jiang would never underestimate the providence of the demon world. Even though he had made a lot of preparations, and Yu Chai Asi, Yuan Laoxi, and Zhu Dali were developing in three different directions, he still did not dare to say that he could rest easy from now on.

In addition to existing plans, we must also actively pursue the path of the sages.

He now vaguely feels that the reason why he was targeted by the demon world's providence may be because of the light of humanity he once won at Guanhe Terrace - although he still doesn't know what the use of the light of humanity is, as a reward for the leader of the Yellow River Society

One of them, presumably, has some connection with the supreme talent of the human race and the future of the human race.

A great being like the World-Honored One was of course an extremely talented person when he was young, and he should have been illuminated by the light of humanity. In other words, if the demon world’s providence’s targeting was related to the light of humanity, then the World-Honored One who later became a great person would only be illuminated by the light of humanity.

God's will is more powerful...

At that time, the World-Honored One did not have an army of humans confronting the demon clan, nor did there appear to be so many powerful human beings interfering and misleading the demon clan.

But looking back to ancient times, it is clear that the World-Honored One at that time successfully defeated the demon world and God's will.

How did He do it?

Perhaps looking back at past history, we can find some clues.

He needs to see clearly what changes have occurred in Buddhism in the demon world compared to Buddhism in the real world, and how the entire history of Buddhism in the demon world has evolved and developed.

Even when the World Honored One came to the Hell World, there was a big difference, whether it was at the end of the ancient era or the medieval era. Of course, the earlier the time, the more difficult it is, and the more it can inspire him now.





In the troika of the galloping demon clan.

The great ancient god has the strongest control over Chai Asi, after all, he follows him closely. He also has deep control over Yuan Laoxi. With the Bodhisattva of Six Desires, the Faceless God Sculpture, and the divine seal method, faith and interests complement each other.

The control over Zhu Dali is actually the weakest. Apart from the Frost Wind Divine Seal, it is purely organizational structure control. He is recruited to join the non-existent mysterious organization "Taipingdao" and given certain rewards to establish his ability to eliminate evil and kill gods.

Sense of honor.

Tonight, the Lao Yuan Tavern was packed with enthusiastic drinkers, and there was almost no spare seat.

Even Zhu Dali had no place to sit, so he sat in the corner, folded his arms, and looked at the entire place quietly.

The reason is that compared to usual times, there are many more monster warriors on vacation in the tavern. Although they don't wear armor and are all wild and wild, the temperament of a regular army in their bones cannot be erased.

The few little demons who usually looked at the show with ferocious looks were like quails, just busy as waiters, without showing any sign of evil.

Not to mention how ruthless they were when they used knives to seize territory.

In terms of cruelty and cruelty, how can bandits compare to soldiers?

In order to avoid trouble, Yuan Xiaoqing did not come to the pub today.

No matter what god Yuan Laoxi is secretly worshiping...the evil gods are also afraid of the regular army.

As Yuan Laoxi's former right-hand man, Zhu Dali, who is now taking the initiative to retreat to the edge, has noticed Yuan Laoxi's secret development, and speculates that Yuan Lao Xi may have worshiped some evil god.

But first of all, he has feelings for Yuan Laoxi, and Yuan Laoxi is now in good condition and has not been damaged. Secondly, he also needs his current identity to protect himself, so he pretends not to know.

When he is ready to leave this city one day, it will not be too late to kill the evil god.

There was a lot of noise in the tavern, and he was used to walking in the dark. The glitzy atmosphere that used to intoxicate him now only made him feel boring.

This world is too impetuous and weird, and only the cold blade can help him find peace.

Several monsters at the next table were talking quietly.

"What day is it today? Why are so many soldiers returning to the city?"

"You're stupid, aren't you? The human race is celebrating the Dao Li New Year. There is usually a truce at this time. Naturally, many soldiers take turns to rest."

"Oh oh oh, I really forgot if you didn't tell me!"

The ancient calendar used by the demon clan is naturally different from the Taoist calendar, and the demon clan has no way of welcoming the new year. However, after years of war, both sides have more or less tacit understanding.

Including the intensity of various battlefields, including the truce on the New Year in the human race's Tao calendar and the Tian'en day in the demon race's ancient calendar.

"Daoli New Year?" Zhu Dali muttered and forgot about it.

But in the underground room of the tavern, the Six Desires Bodhisattva hidden in the Shinto space sighed softly.

During this period of time, I was busy with this and that, constantly weaving various possibilities, trying hard to explore the way back, and almost forgot about time.

In a blink of an eye, it was already the New Year of the year 3922 in the Tao calendar.

Countless times, since he fell into Frostwind Valley at the end of winter, he has been struggling to survive in the demon clan's territory for more than a month.

The time is not too long, but it feels so long...

How is An An?

Will he still grow up happily?

How can my friends and old acquaintances care about me? What about my people in my fiefdom and my retainers and subordinates?

Those past glory are like clouds, and all the memories are left in another world. Everything we once had is very far away... Even the wine stored in the house, even the debts owed, and even the ranking of blessed places in Taixu Illusion...



A stranger in a foreign land.





The large monk's robe concealed his figure.

The bodhi branch mask hides a face whose true appearance is unknown.

A pair of black leather gloves clinging to the ten fingers that may be slender.

This is the nun from Xiyue Temple, Master Yuzhen.

This is the specific impression she left on people on the Wunan battlefield.

Just like the sect Xiyue'an, it makes people feel mysterious.

I've heard of it and even seen it, but don't know much about it.

Perhaps because the intensity of that war was too high and it happened so suddenly, it seemed too unreal. Only a little over a month had passed, but to many people, that vigorous war seemed like a long time had passed.

It seems that people have become accustomed to the confrontation between Wu'an City and Nantian City, each retreating thirty miles away from the frost wind battlefield.

This is just a small one among the many battlefields between humans and monsters in the world of Hell.

The Duke of Huai, Zuo Xiao, has left, and the Great Qi Army God, Jiang Mengxiong, has withdrawn.

Tianyao Zhuyi hid himself to recover from his injuries, while Yuanxianting and Qiguanying also left.

A strong man standing at the top can turn the world around with a flip of his hand.

When it came, there was thunder and lightning for thousands of miles, and when it left, the sky was clear and the golden sun hung.

Wenren Shen, the imperial court official of the Qi State, and Mengchen, the true demon of the Yu tribe, are the supreme commanders of both sides on this racial battlefield. They both exercised considerable restraint and maintained a certain tacit understanding. The war since then has been more like military training. , the casualties and injuries are all controlled within a certain range.

During this period of time, Li Fengyao and Li Longchuan from the Shimen Li family, Yan Fu from the Yan family in Bei County, Xu Xiangqian from Qingya Academy, and even Jiang Wuyou, the master of Huaying Palace, have all come to the demon world and Wu'an City in turn.

Everyone knows that it is called experience, but it is actually mourning.

In this city that commemorates that person, mourn that person who may never come back.

After all, this is the battlefield that Qi State is responsible for. After the hustle and bustle dissipates, there are not many "outsiders" left here.

Master Yuzhen is one of those few.

She seems to have a taciturn temperament and focuses on her spiritual practice.

You must participate in every battle, and you must be trapped in every battle. After the war, you return to the temporary nunnery in the city, light green lanterns, knock wooden fish, and recite Buddhist scriptures.

The Master Yuetian Slave, who did not hide her figure, was always by her side.

"What are you looking at?" From a corner of the city wall, Yue Tiannu walked slowly and asked.

Standing in front of the already mottled city wall, Yuzhen withdrew his gaze. "I didn't see anything."

When Yuetiannu was far away, he noticed that some unethical person had carved words on this wall brick. At this time, he could see clearly when he got closer, and saw that it read - "Driving Horse Mountain Shuang" The proud Xu Xiangqian came here for a visit." There was a red cross above "Yiyou" and the words "Condolences" were written next to it.

The writing is not ugly, but the content is speechless.

Today is the New Year of 3922. Although it is a battlefield in the demon world, houses in Wu'an City are still decorated with peach charms and it is very lively.

Yuzhen and Yuetiannu are both monks and are not used to the hustle and bustle. On New Year's Eve last night, they wandered outside the city.

Officially, the city was built in memory of Jiang Wu'an. One month after the news of the death of Marquis Wu'an, it was already very festive. The sorrow that enveloped the city at that time was real. At this time, it was rare to have a truce to welcome the joy of the New Year. It's true. That's how things are in the world. Life doesn't stop just because someone disappears.

Yue Tiannu thought for a while and said: "Over there at Sanfenxiang Building..."

Yu Zhen didn't wait for her to finish: "Leave the place in the secret realm to Xiang Ling'er. I... can't get away now."

Yuetian Nu looked at the sky and said: "Xiyue Temple has not yet fully entered the world, and the power we can use is very limited. You have done everything you can... The dead are gone, so are the living. .”

Yuzhen pursed her lips and said, "Senior sister, I'm just practicing here."

"It is impossible for me to completely recover the memories of the past, but I have picked up some bits and pieces. Those memories make me even more confused." Yue Tiannu clasped his hands together with a compassionate expression: "Complete choice

After I became a puppet, I gradually lost my emotions. Master said that if I walked with you, I might be able to recapture the word "love", and then I became spiritual again. Now I feel more and more confused. Yuzhen, you said you

I want both heart fragrance and sandalwood, so why stop here now?"

"Yes, why?" Yuzhen murmured.

"Is there no answer for you in Sanfenxiang Building? Is there no answer for you in Xiyue Temple? Can't you find it in the world of mortals? Can't you find it in Buddhist scriptures?" Yue Tiannu asked questions one after another.

Spending time with her day and night, one can clearly feel that the emotion in the voice of this senior sister who has been rebuilt as a puppet is indeed getting less and less day by day.

The truth of her past is not the truth of today.

Yuzhen then said: "With or without him, everyone must continue to live. Except me."

Yue Tiannu thought thoughtfully: "So you can't let go of the word love?"

"I don't know either. It can have the same description, but it is the self that is unique among ten thousand." Yu Zhen said: "Master said that it is good for us to stay together. Senior sister's state will make me realize something, and it will not be bitter.

Confused. I also want to know what it is that senior sister can't let go of after all the emotions are gone."

Confused mind and magical powers, it is difficult to escape self-confusion.

Yue Tiannu wanted to say something more about this, but suddenly stopped.

At this moment, an old monk with a yellow face, dirty and dusty, with injuries on his body, walked into the field of view. His eyes looked over, and his expression became sad: "The old monk said that it's impossible to go out alone for a walk.

If you want to be bald and meet a bald head... it's not a good sign."

"I am practicing with my hair on." Yu Zhen remained calm.

"I am a puppet." Yue Tiannu added.

The old monk Kujue from Xuankong Temple and the two nuns from Xiyue Temple looked at each other like this. Then the old monk continued to walk towards the city, and when he hid his figure in the city gate hole, the old monk felt compassion

He sighed: "Happy New Year."

Bang!

Bang bang bang!

A nun's love affair outside Wu'an City.

The sound of firecrackers in Wu'an City.
