In the Crystal Palace, Xu Ji slowly opened his eyes.
A piece of green lotus fell from the pupils of his eyes and dissipated invisible.
Gently holding the hilt of the soap-black divine sword, the countless wonderful uses of this divine sword came to mind.
Sword shadows flew in his pupils, and countless divine thunder exploded.
Recalling the various magics of sword-wielding unfolded from the perspective of the old god in the green lotus.
Xu Ji couldn't help but gently stroke the divine sword.
"From now on, I no longer have to fly bricks with great force!" He said softly: "Even if a Taoist of the same level is in front of me, I can probably hold on for a few rounds without being embarrassed!"
Saying this, Xu Ji stood up and walked outside.
At the entrance of the Crystal Palace, the big black buffalo saw Xu Ji coming out, and he mooed quickly and came close to him.
Xu Ji nodded slightly, sat on the back of the cow, patted it gently, and said: "Niu'er, come with me to the country of China and serve in plain clothes!"
"Look at the changes in all sentient beings in China in the past few years!"
Moo!
The cow raised its hooves, wind and thunder appeared, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the crystal palace.
…
The midsummer heat wave swept across the plains.
In the vast wheat fields, golden swarms of poisonous bees roared through the gaps in the straw.
Their compound eyes search for wheat stalks, leaves, and soil.
Pheromones are passed between each other.
All edible 'meat' will be found and cut into pieces.
Even the aphids, caterpillars, ticks, etc. in the wheat field have already been nourished by the aura of the wheat field and become big and fat.
It has grown ferocious mouthparts and its body is covered with strong armor.
He has even mastered some basic techniques.
It will spray out highly toxic poisonous mist and spit out foul-smelling bubbles.
It can also instantly escape into the soil and straw when danger is discovered.
However, all this is useless in the face of natural enemies.
Because the arms race has already begun.
Among these swarms of poisonous bees, there appeared a large number of large golden-ringed poisonous bees with sharp teeth and airflow between their wings.
These are all spiritual bees nourished by prey filled with spiritual energy.
In the sky above each bee swarm are giant golden-ringed poisonous bees as big as a washbasin.
Hovering, directing, and providing critical assistance.
The tails of these poisonous bees that have become bee demons all have the number plates from the "Agricultural and Jisi Division" of China.
This means that they are collaborators of the Chinese Agricultural and Grain Bureau.
These bee demons that have already established a foundation are the lucky ones among the first batch of golden-ringed poisonous bees hatched from the cliff hives in Mount Lu after the Great Sage of the Golden Ring migrated to Shashui.
Although these bee demons have not yet transformed.
But there is a layer of pale golden halo flowing around the body that is invisible to the naked eye of mortals but can be seen by monks at a glance.
Maitreya stood on the field ridge from a distance, watching the swarm of poisonous bees commanded by dozens of bee demons, easily sweeping through tens of thousands of acres of wheat fields.
Within an hour, all the poisonous bees buzzed together, driven by the bee demons, and gathered into a huge golden swarm, flying into the distance to the wheat fields on the other side of the sandy river bank.
Maitreya's expression is not very good-looking.
Jin Zha and Muzha looked at it with great interest and marveled.
The two brothers even started discussing in front of Maitreya.
"Under China's system, as long as foreign monks have lived there for three years and have not committed any crimes, they can sign up for the civil service examination!"
“You can even participate in local local elections!”
As he said this, the two brothers' eyes lit up.
Three years in the human world, three days in the pure land.
If you can find an official position in the Chinese Taoist tradition, then you can rise to the top and make great achievements!
Wouldn't this be much more promising than being a boy in front of the Bodhisattva's throne in the Western Pure Land?
If you can rise to the top of the Chinese temple and take charge of a committee.
I am afraid that Bodhisattvas and Buddhas may not have such a good future!
Maitreya listened and naturally knew that the two brothers had something on their mind.
The Ran Deng group has betrayed the Chan religion, so how can we expect them to be loyal to Western religion?
However, if it works together, it will come, if it is beneficial, it will be attached.
The great desire to attain enlightenment is both a benefit and a means of binding.
It is more of a kind of restraint and control.
However, the brothers Jin Zha and Mu Zha are not closely related to Western teachings.
They didn't even use the method of great wish to attain enlightenment, they just turned into boys in front of the Western incarnation of Samantabhadra and Cihang.
Therefore, if this brother wants to change his family, the cost will be very low.
Besides, they don't actually need to change their homes.
Just cut off a clone and come to this country of China.
When the time is right, replace the clone with the original body!
This is a very low-cost thing for Jin Zha and Muzha brothers, and even the people behind them.
Maitreya had no choice but to interrupt this brother's sweet dream: "Xian Kunzhong, after watching for so long, you should know...it's not easy to be an official or a god in China, right?"
Jin Zha and Mu Zha looked at Maitreya, blinked and nodded: "Of course I know!"
"To be an official or a god here, the most important thing is the people's hearts!"
"Like that land, it's almost like a mortal slave. The mortals burn incense and appear instantly. Most of the things they ask for or ask are just trivial things like missing farm tools and missing shoes!"
"He Bo needs to inspect the river section and control the water flow. Even if he can move the clouds and spread rain, he needs to be ordered and dispatched by the government..."
"But what does it matter?"
Maitreya frowned: "Can Xian Kunzhong bear it?"
"Being a slave and being driven by others..."
"You still have to be cautious, careful, and you have to restrain everything..."
"Why can't you bear it?" Brothers Jin Zha and Muzha stared at Maitreya like a fool: "Brother Tao, don't forget that our pursuit of the Tao is extremely difficult and full of suffering!"
"In the mortal world, you want to live forever. After ascending, you have to worry about the catastrophe. Even if you survive the catastrophe and achieve the golden immortality, there will be no disaster or catastrophe, you still have the worry of death and catastrophe!"
"Therefore, the road is difficult. Even if you are a quasi-sage, you will fall down!"
"Therefore, people in the three realms all put merit first!"
"This merit is rare, rare!"
"Otherwise, how could the Xiahou clan recruit so many heavenly immortals and golden immortals as ministers in the past? Why would there be so many heavenly immortals and golden immortals who were willing to live and die with the Xiahou clan?"
"Otherwise, even if our Yuanzhou clan has not even attained the imperial dynasty, there will still be heavenly immortals and golden immortals willing to encourage us?"
At this point, Jin Zha and Mu Zha both looked at Maitreya and shook their heads: "Of course, Brother Tao is of noble birth and has profound knowledge. You don't have to worry about these catastrophes like us!"
"You can be free, live forever, and live forever!"
"How do you know why we, the monks, are having such a hard time every step of the way?"
For immortals who are aspiring to the great road and have tasted the taste of immortality.
As long as you can earn merit, there is nothing you can't do!
However, this country of China, with its nascent Taoism, can already provide merits and virtues that would make even the Golden Immortal jealous!
These days, brothers Jin Zha and Mu Zha, their eyes widened as they looked at the monsters and water tribes who were just building foundations and golden elixirs, sucking incense that had no cause and effect, but contained a concentration of merit that made them go crazy.
They almost stared out.
The problem is that there are rules in China. Foreign monks must settle in the local area for more than three years and be guaranteed by local monks before they can apply for official positions and participate in local affairs.
Their brothers had long since abandoned Maitreya and found a place to show off their skills.
Aren't you just working as a nanny or servant for mortals?
We monks have the Dao in our hearts, and our Dao heart is firm and unshakable!
All sufferings are like bubbles and clouds.
All worries are just things of yesterday.
For example, it is like a red and pink skull, or like a yellow beam and a dream.
It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
Maitreya listened and lowered his head.
He knew that brothers Jin Zha and Muzha were right.
Those who are quasi-sages and below are all working hard for merit.
Cultivation and accumulation are just things that must be done as a last resort.
Because, without merit, only cultivation, spiritual treasures are just a pile of firewood in a great catastrophe, and ashes in a heavenly catastrophe.
No matter how high your cultivation level is or how many magic weapons you have, there will be no merit to protect you.
It’s also a wedding dress for others!
It’s true that magical powers are no match for Heaven!
Thinking of this, Maitreya sighed.
"How did the Chinese Taoism achieve this?" Maitreya asked: "The Taoism is prosperous and the luck is long... I can still understand it!"
Any new orthodoxy, at the beginning of its birth, will be high-spirited and show great vitality.
The prosperity of the Chinese Taoist tradition is outrageous, but it is understandable.
But Maitreya couldn't understand why the incense of mortals in China didn't carry impurities of cause and effect?
There is even more jealousy, a crazy mixture of human brilliance and heavenly virtues.
Therefore, relying on this kind of incense, the mortals of China easily made the demon tribe, water tribe, shaman tribe, and asuras bow down one after another.
One by one, they transformed from blood-ridden monsters, murderers, and unteachable sinful remnants into a kind and obedient tribe.
Don’t pick up lost things on the road, don’t close your doors at night.
The tiger demon helps the old lady cross the bridge, and the water tribe saves the drowning human being.
The Wu tribe mines and smelts,
Asuras go on stage to sing, smoke poisonous cigarettes, and swallow sewage.
Everything in this country of China is simply incomprehensible and incomprehensible to people.
This is something unprecedented.
This is something that has never happened before!
Even in the ancient times, when the Holy Emperor ruled the world, such a thing never happened.
Mortals live side by side with monsters, shamans, water tribes, and asuras, calling themselves brothers and sisters.
The demon clan plows the land, catches insects, guards the home, and looks after the gate for the humans.
The aquarium raises fish for humans, dredges rivers, digs out mud, and even goes to the deep sea to dig out feces.
The Wu tribe is either digging underground or forging iron and forging things in the workshop.
All sources point to incense.
But the question is... why does the incense of China contain no impurities of cause and effect, but contains the glory of humanity and the merits of heaven?
Moreover, according to observation, the concentration of human brilliance and heavenly merit in these incense is still slowly increasing!
How did you do it?
Why can it be done?
Maitreya felt that he could not understand.
"Perhaps, only saints can know!" Maitreya thought.
Suddenly, the hair on Maitreya's body stood up.
He looked back in horror.
In the distant wilderness, the vague figure of a Taoist riding a bull flashed past.
The Taoist glanced at Maitreya when he turned around.
With just one glance, Maitreya's whole body froze.
"Master Jiejiao!?"
However, the Taoist's shadow dissipated cleanly like the breeze, as if it had never existed.
The trend of the movement of yin and yang and the five elements of heaven and earth has not changed at all.
It was as if no saint had appeared or disturbed him at all.
"Am I overthinking it? Is there any distracting thoughts in my soul?" Maitreya murmured.
…
Riding the big buffalo, Xu Ji looked at the Taoist who made him feel a little strange.
Somewhat familiar feeling.
Seem to have seen it somewhere?
"Interesting..." He nodded: "It seems that Hua Kingdom will also be exposed to other Taoist ancestors!"
The dense cause and effect of this mythical world has formed a thick invisible barrier, covering the connection between heaven and man.
This makes the gods, immortals and Buddhas unable to know the affairs of the human world.
However, Xu Ji knew that even so, the existence of the Hua Kingdom would definitely not be hidden from the gods and Buddhas for long.
His fingers pinched automatically.
"It turns out there are more than just these people..."
He looked to the other side.
There is a goal there that makes even the soap-black divine sword excited.
On the surface of the scabbard of the Divine Sword, green lotuses floated.
Xu Ji knew that there must be some kind of relationship between that man and the soap-black divine sword.
Moreover, the Soap Black Divine Sword is very hostile to it!
"Enemy?"
Xu Ji felt from a distance that the guy targeted by the divine sword was exposed within his range of perception.
"The cultivation level must be better than that of a magic weapon man!"
"It's better than fearing Liu Sun!"
"Like these people, he is hiding among the Chinese people..."
"interesting!"
"I have to ask the magic weapon and the fearful grandson!"
