Tang Yan smiled, and he was very happy. He really didn't expect that the Golden Lion would choose to follow him ten years later, and would abandon the pure land of Chenyuan Pavilion and come to be his mount. He took a deep breath and exhaled heavily: "Okay
!!I'm not welcome! I've never gotten over my habit of causing trouble everywhere, so you have to be prepared if you follow me."
"I have been preparing for it for ten years."
"The Golden Lion has returned to its original owner. I have given an explanation to Master. Junior brother, let's talk while walking." Wu Zhen obviously had other things to do. He smiled and raised his hand to signal, and walked deeper into the valley, deliberately avoiding
A patrol team nearby.
Tang Yan walked over with Jin Shi, and Jin Shi consciously fell half a step behind.
"Senior Brother, I must have gained a lot if you came back early." Wu Zhen admired the unique beauty of the deep valley and secluded path.
"Well, it's not bad."
"The Wizard of the Holy Empire has also returned with his team, just now. Like you, he refused to receive guests, and after returning, we will all retreat for self-cultivation. It seems that he will become a strong competitor for the younger senior brother."
"oh?"
"In addition to Wu Jie Shu, several other teams have arrived in the River District for foreign aid and are about to enter the Valley of the Evil Ones. They are Qin Minghuang from the Star Luo Empire, Tuoba Gui from the Kuibing Tower, and Chen Changan from the Pure Yang Realm.
Being able to return to the Valley of the Wicked ahead of schedule shows that they can see through the situation and know that staying in the river area will only cause trouble and not gain much. It also shows that they have gained a lot and do not bother to work hard on the last day."
"Wu Jieshu, Qin Minghuang, Tuoba Gui, and Chen Chang'an are all top players. It seems that the team battle is more exciting than what I saw."
"Wu Jie Shu is not an ordinary person. He is more than ten years older than the princes of the other four empires, and he has stayed in the semi-sacred realm much longer than them. It is said that Wu Jie Shu's bloodline awakening rate is very high, and he is known as
He will be the first person in the younger generation to be promoted to saint."
"Junior Brother Wu Zhen, don't worry. Wu Jieshu is from the Holy Empire. I have no enmity with him and will not take the initiative to provoke him."
"Are you sure you will win the first place? I heard that the Three Holy Lands have prepared very generous prizes for the first round. If you have the chance, you must work hard to win it."
"What prize? Tell me a message?"
Wu Zhen said with a smile: "I don't have that authority, and I don't know the specific type of prize. I won't let your efforts go in vain."
"Tell me, why are you calling me out? You're not just reminding me not to mess with the witchcraft book, are you?"
As soon as these words came out, Wu Zhen suddenly fell silent and walked on the stone road in the mountains without saying a word.
Tang Yan became more and more strange and looked back at Jin Shi. Jin Shi shook his head to express his ignorance.
After a while, the smile on Wu Zhen's face faded slightly, and there was a slight worry between his eyebrows: "To be honest, senior brother, I know some little secrets."
"Whose secret."
"The secrets of the River District, the secrets of the Holy Land, and some of your secrets. I really want to tell you more, but what I know is only a drop in the bucket. It's okay not to mention it, but it will make you worry if you mention it."
Tang Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Junior brother, since you don't want to mention it, why do you want to say it? Sincerity makes me feel troubled."
"I want to remind my young brother that the Holy Land invites heroes from all over the world to join the Valley of the Evils. It is not just a competition, nor is it simply about easing tensions on the mainland. All aspects involved are very complicated. You don't need to think deeply, you just need to stay vigilant.
.Especially in the last round, no matter what happens, no matter how curious you are, or who irritates you, you must remember one word - endure!!"
Tang Yan's face changed slightly and he stopped: "What exactly do you know?"
"From my personal standpoint, I don't want you to participate in the final round. For you, it is like standing on the edge of a cliff. If you are not careful, you will be doomed. I am not kidding, nor am I deliberately exaggerating.
This is a fact!"
Tang Yan met Wuzhen's gaze, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Don't be so serious, I'm timid."
"I came to you today to remind you to be vigilant. There is a saying in Buddhism, take a step back and the world will be brighter, and give it to my little senior brother."
Tang Yan smiled and put his arms around Wu Zhen's chubby shoulders: "Don't worry about me. I walked from Biannan to the Central Plains. Every time I didn't narrowly escape death, and every time I didn't stand on the edge of a cliff. After living these years, I understand the most important thing.
A clear truth - save your life!"
"This time, it's really different."
"Okay, I will pay attention. How about...you tell me all the little secrets you know?"
Wu Zhen hesitated again and again, shook his head and smiled: "That's all, it's just me worrying too much. Little senior brother, you have experienced more ups and downs in these years than I have ever seen. I hope you can get through it smoothly, I look forward to it
In the future, I can lead you into the Zen monastery in Chenyuan Pavilion."
Tang Yan was full of emotion: "...Chenyuan Pavilion...Pure Land...I don't know how many times I have thought about it and been delayed. I suddenly felt like there was an invisible big hand stopping me from walking towards the Pure Land."
"Huh? Little senior brother, you can't think like that. Your fate with the Pure Land is engraved in your bones. With Master Dukong's Buddhist heart, you are a veritable successor of Chenyuan Pavilion. Year after month, you entered Chenyuan Pavilion and accepted
The Buddhist treasure left by Uncle Dukong will definitely have greater opportunities."
Tang Yan smiled and shook his head: "Heir of the Pure Land? I have already seen through it. My existence is just another one among the millions of Buddhists in the Pure Land. What I do has nothing to do with the Pure Land. My style of conduct and my personality are...
It has nothing to do with Buddha nature."
"Hey, little senior brother, are you wavering in your thoughts? You can't do that! You have both Buddhist roots and a Buddhist heart. As long as you understand the Buddhist scriptures, you will immediately become a Buddha and seek sainthood, and reshape the holy name of your old master uncle."
"If I really want to say who I am most ashamed of in my life, it is my mentor Du Kong."
"Senior brother, you... have other ideas?"
"No, you're overly concerned and you're just expressing your feelings."
"Scared me." Wukong patted his plump chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "The old people in the temple are still waiting for you to go back to preach sutras and recite Buddhism. You can't back down."
"Preaching sutras and chanting Buddha's teachings?"
"A required course for Buddhism."
"Do you think I look like that?" Tang Yan smiled and suddenly thought of something.
"What's wrong?"
"If I really..."
"Really what?"
"Really..." Tang Yan opened his mouth, but hesitated again.
"What is it really? It's mysterious."
"It's nothing. When Uncle Dujue returns to the valley, you can arrange for someone to come and notify me. I would like to visit in person."
"Okay, no problem at all."
At noon that day, Qin Minghuang, Chen Changan and other troops returned to the Valley of the Evil Ones one after another, making the Valley of the Evil Ones lively again after being silent for nearly ten days. The 'eliminates' who stayed here were dispatched one after another, trying every means to find out the harvest status of each unit. They
There is no chance to participate in the event in person, but it is also very meaningful to understand the process of the event and predict the outcome of the event.
At the same time, the chaos in the world in the River District continued to intensify. Many troops had to take an extreme path - blocking roads and robbing because of too little harvest! To a certain extent, it cast a layer of blood on the chaotic River District!
From noon to evening, the chaos continues. Vast collision scenes often erupt deep in the river area and at the junction of the river area and the valley, causing energy chaos in the world and causing the valley to continue to tremble.
If the Valley of the Evil hadn't strictly prohibited the 'eliminates' from leaving the valley, they would have rushed over to experience it with their own eyes and see it with their own eyes.
In this half day, excluding Qin Minghuang and other troops who came in initially, Houston's troops, Murong Zixuan's troops, Luan Che's troops, and six other troops arrived one after another.
So far, 11 troops have returned safely from the entire team battle. Counting Zhao Huan's troops and Li Baiying's troops who returned early, 13 troops have finished the competition, and five troops have been promoted and stayed in the river area.
As night fell, Zhao Zimo led his troops back, but Du Yang still stayed at the palace in the river area, trying to transform himself.
With the return of the large army, the strong men from the Holy Land who were stationed in the river area and responsible for patrolling also returned one after another, leaving only four saints to personally monitor the remaining four armies.
Late at night, after Tang Yan learned the news of Du Jue's return, he left the valley alone and took the golden lion to visit Du Jue.
"Wuzhen said you have something important to discuss with me?" Du Jue led Tang Yan into the inner room. He was gentle and friendly, like the old man next door, giving him a calm and friendly feeling.
"There is indeed something."
"Sit down, sit down first. There are no outsiders here. If you have any ideas or difficulties, please tell me." Du Jue motioned Tang Yan to sit at the simple tea table, and Wu Zhen stayed in the room with him.
"It's not about the competition, it's about the Buddha's heart that Master Dukong left in me."
"Oh? Is there something wrong with the integration? Or is there something I don't understand?"
Tang Yan shook his head: "I had an idea a long time ago, but I was too weak at the time and didn't have so many concerns. I just consumed it wantonly, and gradually the idea was put aside. I chatted with Junior Brother Wu Zhen today.
, I thought about it accidentally, I thought about it seriously in the afternoon, and I decided..."
Du Jue listened carefully and waited for Tang Yan's explanation.
"I have decided..." Tang Yan hesitated for a moment, then stood up slightly and said firmly: "I have decided to abandon the Buddha's heart and return to the Chenyuan Pavilion!"
