Chapter 99 Move mountains and rivers to make land into fields)
Suddenly, a figure floated through Zhou Yi's mind.
He... doesn't seem very familiar to him.
Although...but...however...but...how about giving it a try?
"There's no rush, there's still half a year left anyway. Master Youlao will take his time to make the selection."
"Haha, I don't know any ordinary person who can be favored by the Master and get this opportunity."
Zhou Yi smiled and said nothing.
What about yourself?
As a sole notary, what should be more benefits?
Why didn't you two say anything?
You can't be so stingy.
Due to the character of the eminent monk, Zhou Yi was unable to ask directly.
A faint smile appeared on his face: "Amitabha, I don't know what the betting method you have decided on is..."
Ao Chen said with a smile: "The Master asked knowingly, but naturally he still followed the old rules. Each side uses magic to control the wind and rain, move mountains and flat rivers, and turn the land into fields. Whoever creates more fertile soil and fertile fields will win."
Zhou Yi was greatly moved, wouldn't it be the people along the river who would benefit the most from this?
But soon, he realized that he had thought too much.
There are no other provisions in the rules.
In other words, it is allowed to attack each other and destroy each other during the competition.
If the two sides really fight, if there is no barrier to protect them, it will be the ordinary people who will suffer in the end.
Sensing Zhou Yi's silence, Mr. Pingjiang whispered: "That's why I chose the poor mountains and rivers of Lingnan. There are many rebels, bandits and cruel people there, but there are not many truly kind and honest people."
"The donor is wrong. Not everything between good and evil is caused by the human heart."
Zhou Yi whispered a Buddha's name, and suddenly the sound came into the secret: "Donor, is this fight really just to win the position of the river god who is just relying on someone else?"
Mr. Pingjiang lowered his eyelids and his eyes flickered, and he also transmitted the message into the secret: "In a few months, the Master will know about it. I apologize for the inconvenience of telling you before."
Zhou Yi was silent.
He has little interest in Ping Jiangjun's true purpose.
He also knew that it would be difficult for him to stop this fight that was destined to bring disaster to all living beings.
Ao Chen said: "Yes, as a notary, the mage will receive a thank you gift from the winner. I wonder what the mage wants? Whether it is strange beasts from the world or rare treasures from the mountains and rivers, the mage can just ask."
It’s coming, it’s coming! It’s finally here!
Zhou Yi pondered for a moment and said: "The young monk does not need the Dragon Palace and Pingjiang Lord to spend money, and the monks do not need rare treasures. The young monk only wants all the treasures that are related to Buddhism, whether it is scriptures, wooden fish, or magic staffs, but in the world
The young monk needs all of them. I wonder if that’s okay?”
He also had the idea of letting these two men reclaim land for him and build a Buddhist temple.
But soon, this idea was dismissed by him.
Especially with the order to kill monks, what is the difference between building a temple now and setting up a target?
The reason why these two people in front of me ignored the "monk-killing order" was to get along well with me.
In fact, it was due to some mistake that he misunderstood himself as an enlightened monk with profound Buddhist teachings.
If it were an ordinary monk, he might have been torn apart and swallowed in half by the two of them.
Doesn't the so-called "order to kill monks" depend on the person serving the food?
If you really want Buddha to come to this world, why don't you kill him for me?
...In short, in short, if you want to return to secular life and revive Buddhism, you must first become a truly eminent monk with profound magical power.
And through the unnamed Buddhist scriptures, I have obtained the wonderful Buddhist method - salvation.
Maybe you can also obtain other Buddhist teachings through other Buddhist relics.
Only then will you be qualified to protect a Buddhist temple.
Start from scratch, take your time...
Ao Chen, who was opposite, thought for a moment and nodded.
"Okay. Xiao Wang agreed."
Then he turned his eyes to Mr. Pingjiang.
Mr. Pingjiang smiled while stroking his palms: "Of course I have no problem with such a small matter. And, no matter who wins or loses in six months, I owe the Master a promise, and I will just apologize for coming uninvited today."
Faced with Pingjiang Jun's proactive overture, Zhou Yi was a little surprised, but in the end he did not refuse.
After all, he had killed three of his subordinates openly and secretly, taken away the night horse, and let the female slave go, so he couldn't force him too hard. He had to leave some sympathy and thoughts for this Pingjiang Lord.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Ao Chen's face, but he didn't say anything more.
He naturally understood that Lord Pingjiang wanted to take this opportunity to get close to Master Yichen.
But brother-in-law, we don’t speak the same language as our family, so we don’t need to be so outspoken...
…
In the end, Zhou Yi did not choose to stay in Honghu Bookshop to print Buddhist scriptures.
Accompanied by Mr. Jun...that is, Pingjiang Jun, and the fourth dragon son Ao Chen, he strolled to a small bookshop in the north of the county town.
I wrote down obscure scriptures silently, paid a deposit, and discussed with the craftsman the style, specifications, and number of volumes of Buddhist scriptures.
This is the first step in rebuilding Buddhism.
It seems trivial, but Zhou Yi is very meticulous and serious... After all, this is the first time he has published a book in his two lives.
Although he is preaching sutras on behalf of the Buddha, the Buddha is no longer in this world.
Pingjiang Jun and Ao Chen did not leave immediately.
The two kept their distance and paid close attention to Zhou Yi's every move throughout the process, not even letting go of the smallest details.
He even tried to secretly memorize this enigmatic and obviously unusual Buddhist scripture.
Zhou Yi did not hide it at all.
He even recited the Buddhist sutra twice on purpose in front of these two people.
Buddhist scripture?
The ultimate secret?
Need to keep it secret?
Shameless?
These don't exist!
Zhou Yi wished he could print tens of billions of copies, give each person a copy, and spread them throughout the world.
After all, the more people who practice Buddhism, the greater the probability that eminent monks will be born, and you can return to secular life sooner.
…
"Both of you, have you remembered it? Do you need the young monk to read it to you again?"
In the bookstore, Zhou Yi turned his head and asked with a smile.
Even though Lord Pingjiang is thick-skinned, Ao Chen calls himself "one of the family", and after hearing Zhou Yi's obviously sarcastic words, he also felt hot-skinned.
But before the two of them could think of their words, Zhou Yi had already begun to recite.
The words are straight and round, with a cadence and a sonorous voice.
Mr. Pingjiang's eyes were complicated.
Ao Chen looked thoughtful.
The two of them looked at each other and could see a hint of embarrassment in each other's eyes.
Then, the sound was transmitted into the secret.
"It's true that we are shallow. This Master Yichen has a clear mind and a deep understanding of Buddhism. He has returned to his original nature long ago. The killing of monks has not diminished his power, but he has entered the world. This world is becoming more and more interesting."
"Haha, so Xiao Wang, my brother-in-law, is the best candidate for a notary."
"Brother-in-law? I suddenly remembered something. Can the fourth prince really make the decision for Jiang Mansion?"
"Huh, that's natural."
After Zhou Yi finished reciting the Buddhist scriptures, Ao Chen raised his hand.
"It's getting late, and Xiao Wang needs to go back to Jiang Mansion to report the matter. When the Master chooses human arbitration, just let Xiao Wang know."
Before Zhou Yi could say anything, Ao Chen twirled his toes slightly, the autumn wind blew by, and he was gone.
"Donor, wait a minute...Amitabha...go slowly without seeing you off."
Zhou Yi whispered the Buddha's name, and under the gaze of Lord Pingjiang, he kept his eyes straight and smiled: "This little fourth son is really young, promising and has a short temper."
But he just suddenly remembered that there was something extremely important that he hadn't told the fourth prince yet.
