Chapter 649: Achieve multiple benefits with one stroke; Seek medical treatment in a hurry when you are sick
The reason why Bajie wanted to deal with Hongyangzi first was actually very simple.
In addition to the fact that Hong Yangzi really deserved to die, Bajie also wanted to take a look at whether the souls of the dead in Changbai Mountain were returned to the underworld, or whether they were really absorbed by Tianchi.
The current operation really allowed Bajie to find out the clues.
As expected, Hong Yangzi's soul did not go to the underworld of the underworld. Instead, there was a strange force that was pulling Hong Yangzi's soul to float in the direction of Tianchi.
"Tianchi witch."
Bajie silently recited the other party's name in his mind, and his expression became increasingly grim.
The information transmitted by the six-eared macaque records that the Tianchi witch possesses ancient witchcraft, and there is an extremely secret cave in the depths of Tianchi in Changbai Mountain. It is said that she is in retreat in the cave, but the six-eared macaque suspects that the other party is studying something.
An evil secret method that is not tolerated by the three realms.
The reason why they are suspicious is because the Tianchi witches have always maintained a strong defense against their probing supernatural powers. The formations set up outside the cave, even if the six-eared macaque wants to use their supernatural powers to probe into the secrets of the cave,
There is no way out.
Unlike Hongyangzi who absorbs the souls of mortals and ordinary creatures, the souls captured by the Tianchi witch are not mortal... and she is not very interested in souls such as monsters and monsters. What she likes most is
The soul of a human cultivator.
The reason why the True Lord Temple is not in a hurry to deal with her is precisely because of this.
Based on the list Bajie saw just now, he knew that there were not many good people practicing in seclusion in Changbai Mountain. Even if they were not evil cultivators, they could not be considered as righteous people.
After all, there is no large-scale crisis that threatens the survival of mortals, so the True Lord Temple has adjusted the priority of Changbai Mountain to a relatively lower level.
Because of the existence of the Tianchi Witch, it can even be said that all the evil cultivators in the entire Changbai Mountain are her potential prey. The difference lies in when to take action.
But since the Conferring Gods War, there has been little news of Tianchi witches taking action. Most of the evil cultivators in Changbai Mountain only came here to open caves after the Conferring Gods War.
Moreover, in today's Three Realms, especially outside Changbai Mountain, she has the reputation of "Tianchi Goddess"... And how did this reputation come about? Bajie learned from the information of Zhenjun Temple
, because the Tianchi witch has used her witchcraft to treat the injuries of many practitioners, and has the effect of rejuvenating and curing diseases.
This is also the reason why the pair of evil monks, when seriously injured, went to Tianchi to ask the "Tianchi Goddess" for help.
If this is the case, then the question arises... She is obviously a goddess who "cures diseases and saves people." Why is she called a witch by Huang Xiu'er, a witch by the mountain god, and even on the wanted list of the True Lord Temple?
The information transmitted by the six-eared macaque to Bajie also recorded the reason very clearly...that is, the witch practices witchcraft, which requires a large part of the practitioner's soul, and goes down the mountain to help those who are seriously injured.
Practitioners take action to heal their wounds, firstly, to test the results of their own witchcraft practice, and secondly, to spread their reputation and attract injured practitioners to come to their homes.
Compared to hunting the practitioners yourself... it is obviously safer to let them come to you. Even if the other party discovers something is wrong, how can they be a match for the miko when they are seriously injured?
The reason why the miko adopts this method actually stems from a lack of trust in her own power.
And this witch obviously did things with careful consideration... Those practitioners around Changbai Mountain came to seek medical treatment from her. Unless she really couldn't cure them, they basically recovered and went down the mountain.
On the other hand, the farther away those who are from Changbai Mountain are, they just heard about her reputation and come here... naturally, they will rarely be able to go down the mountain smoothly.
This is the source of her reputation.
It is recorded in the data that mikos are not good at fighting.
However, the six-eared macaque made a special mark for the second senior brother, so that the second senior brother could not relax his vigilance because this witch was a member of the ancient winter god Xuan Ming's tribe.
Xuanming, the God of Winter, is rumored to be the grandson of the Yellow Emperor. He has a human face and a bird's body, with a green snake hanging from each ear, and two green snakes on his feet... and a two-headed dragon as his mount.
In addition to the winter god, there are four other gods: spring, summer and autumn, who are respectively in charge of the four seasons in the world. The spring god is Gou Mang, who is responsible for growth, so he is also called the god of life; the summer god Zhurong, also known as Huozheng,
Among the Zhu Rong clan, there were even several Yan Emperors; the Qiu Shen Lingshou was said to be an auxiliary minister of the human king Shaohao, in charge of killing, and was also called the God of Punishment... but he was actually a civil servant.
As for Xuan Ming, in addition to the God of Winter, he was also Shuizheng. He once assisted Wang Zhuanxu in completing the feat of reaching the sky and the earth.
As a member of the Xuanming clan, the six-eared macaque didn't believe this witch said she was not good at fighting, but in fact, there were not many records of her actions in the Three Realms.
The few targets he took action against were actually very average in strength, and their estimated value was too high.
Under such circumstances, the six-eared macaque still dared to judge that she was not the opponent of the second senior brother. In fact, it was due to the six-eared macaque's trust in the current cultivation level of the second senior brother.
Maybe others don't know it, but the six-eared macaque knows very well that his second senior brother seems to have an open mind, but in fact he is also very sensitive inside, but he hides such emotions skillfully.
I have to say that the acting skills of the second senior brother are truly an innate talent and a unique gift.
Often when he starts to perform, even the master may not be able to see through his inner thoughts. It can even be said that... the second senior brother will often express the expression that others want to see on his face very naturally.
.
This once amazed the six-eared macaque, but it also deeply touched the six-eared macaque who knew the second senior brother's heart.
Therefore, from the perspective of the six-eared macaque, Changbai Mountain...may be an opportunity for the second senior brother to truly build up his self-confidence. If the problems in Changbai Mountain can be solved, it will naturally be a miracle to achieve multiple benefits with one stone.
As for whether it was because he put the second senior brother in danger... The six-eared macaque said that he only had to do half a somersault from Guanjiangkou to Changbai Mountain, and he could support him at any time... Even if the Chi witch had something hidden that day
With her powerful methods, the six-eared macaque didn't believe she could defeat him and his second senior brother.
But in fact, the second senior brother, who has been stable all his life, originally imagined that he should be more cautious.
In order to verify the accuracy of his information, he even first dealt with Hong Yangzi, a traitor to the sect and an abandoned Buddhist disciple.
Today's Tianchi witch is in retreat. In fact, it is not Tianchi witch who took the initiative to absorb Hongyangzi's soul, but the witch formation she set up in Changbai Mountain played a certain role in pulling Hongyangzi's soul.
Absorb it from Tianchi.
Hongyangzi now feels very innocent.
It was simply an unexplained disaster.
He was meditating in his cave and had stopped going out to cause trouble. But if he didn't go out, he couldn't prevent others from coming to his door.
It is Zhu Bajie, the second disciple of Tripitaka Saint Buddha who has become the most popular in the Three Realms in recent years. Regardless of Zhu Bajie’s lack of reputation in the Three Realms, and regardless of whether he has any real materials, just because his master is
Tripitaka Tathagata is someone he cannot afford to offend.
The bottom line and behavior style of Sanzang's master and disciple have basically spread throughout the three realms. Although Hongyangzi does not leave home, it does not mean that he does not have some channels to obtain information from the outside world, unless he is really practicing in seclusion.
, otherwise it would be impossible to know nothing about the most cutting-edge news from the outside world.
When Bajie knocked on the door of his cave, he knew very clearly the purpose of the other party's visit. As for the things he had done back then, if his master and disciple came to his door, there would basically be no second ending.
Although he didn't want to offend Da Ci'en Temple, but when the situation came to a close, his life was at stake... He could only make a desperate fight... Therefore, he really didn't spare any effort to attack Bajie's sneak attack.
In order to take Bajie's life, he devoured the opponent's soul to improve his own cultivation, and then was chased by the Great Ci'en Temple and fled to the end of the world.
His ideal was already very skinny, but he didn't expect that this world would dry him out.
Zhu Bajie escaped the fatal blow, but he did not survive the three moves in Zhu Bajie's hands... Who said that Zhu Bajie was the weakest among the five masters and disciples?
He actually had the illusion that he might not be able to fight.
This resulted in him taking action without knowing what he was capable of, and his head was smashed to pieces by Bajie with a rake, his body was directly destroyed, and he died.
It doesn't matter if the physical body is destroyed. For practitioners, as long as the soul is still there, there may not be a chance of resurrection... Hong Yangzi originally planned to enter the underworld as quickly as possible and be reincarnated... to prevent the soul from falling into Zhu Bajie
In his hands, he was saved by the Dharma, and his soul was dispersed in the three realms, and he truly died from then on.
But he never expected that before he could find a connection with the underworld of the underworld, there would be a very evil force that would seal up the little power left in his soul and even pull his soul in the direction of Tianchi.
And go.
Such a turn of events was completely beyond his expectation.
Not everyone knows the details of Tianchi Goddess.
Huang Xiuer knew that it was because the patriarchs of the five great immortal families came to Changbai Mountain early enough and had truly witnessed the scene where the Tianchi Goddess captured the souls of evil cultivators.
The mountain god also knows, naturally through his own priesthood... But what he knows is only some superficial information, at most some scraps, more secrets, the mountain god does not dare to delve too deeply, in case he really messes with this Tianchi
The goddess...the mountain god all doubted the other party and were not afraid to take action against them.
Therefore, he only knew that the Tianchi witch was studying some witchcraft related to "spiritual souls". He did not know about more things, so he did not give Bajie any more substantial help before.
"Help!"
Hongyangzi was also seriously ill and sought medical treatment.
He didn't know what kind of result he would face if he went to Tianchi, but he subconsciously felt that it would definitely not be a good ending... Then he saw Bajie blocking him in front of him, and he didn't have time to think too much and didn't move at all.
After thinking about it, he began to ask Bajie for help.
It's just... Bajie stood in front of him like this. He didn't cut off the pulling force between Hong Yangzi's soul and Tianchi. Instead, he gradually loosened his own strength to stop Hong Yangzi.
In Hong Yangzi's eyes, which were first surprised and confused, and then gradually horrified... Bajie watched as Hong Yangzi's soul passed through his body and came out.
Then Bajie used an invisibility method to hide his body shape and cover his scent, and then followed Hong Yangzi's soul towards Tianchi.
In fact, when he saw the information transmitted by the six-eared macaque, Bajie wanted to disguise himself as a wounded person and approach the Tianchi witch. Once the opponent got close, he could take it down with lightning speed and completely defeat her.
Eliminate her, the biggest hidden danger in the Changbai Mountain area.
But then Bajie denied the plan.
The other party is obviously very good at "medical skills", so if the injuries on his body are not real, it is very likely to be seen through by the other party... If this can alert the other party and make the other party take precautions, I think
Looking for an opportunity to deal with her again will not be as easy as it was the first time.
Therefore, Bajie chose the current strategy.
First kill an evil cultivator who is responsible for murder, and then when the other party's soul is pulled by Tianchi, use the invisible method to follow closely... If you can sneak into her cave, find out what's going on
, that is naturally the best.
In fact, this was also Bajie's own curiosity as to what the Tianchi witch would do with collecting the souls of so many monks.
Not only was Bajie curious, but the six-eared macaque who had always been paying attention to the events in Changbai Mountain was also a little itchy... He wanted to send a clone to go to Changbai Mountain for a visit... but in the end he chose to give up.
Naturally, the clone technique of the six-eared macaque and the great sage cannot be compared with Wujing's soul clone. Firstly, it cannot withstand too much power infusion. Secondly, the farther away it is from the main body, the less its connection with the main body.
will be weaker.
Wu Jing's magical power of avatars is something that is difficult to replicate even if you look at the three realms... His nine souls are not simply a complete soul divided into nine parts, but nine souls share one soul.
The body is essentially completely different.
Envy cannot come from envy.
"Something's wrong!"
Bajie, whose figure and scent had disappeared, followed Hong Yangzi to the vicinity of Tianchi... But the closer he got to Tianchi, the more Bajie could feel a strange and cold atmosphere.
Moreover...the corpse spirit here is very strong.
Although there was a sheet of white snow under his feet, Bajie felt that he was stepping on dense bones at this moment. His consciousness slightly explored the area covered by the snow, but found nothing.
Bajie silently recited "Sanzang Sacred Tathagata" to calm down the turmoil in his heart a little.
