Chapter 421: Into the Dust
-- Year 9 --
However, it is said that the golden cicada is like a spring, and persuaded the three moon-gazing rhinos of Jinping Mansion to stop pretending to be the name of the Buddha, and to show their protection to Jinping Mansion and the surrounding small countries in a real way and collect offerings.
At the beginning, there was inevitably some confusion among the countries, but because Lingshan did not react to this, and these three white rhinos were very good-looking, their respective rhino horns contained Zen, and they were also extraordinary when they were incarnated as humans, so they were called "Pure Land Spirit Rhinos" and worshiped each of them.
Since everything was on the right track, Jin Chanzi relieved himself of the responsibility of "ensuring that the kings will not be condemned by Lingshan" at the beginning, and said goodbye and wanted to continue westward.
The king of cold and summer had no time to see him off, so he had to send him off because he was too young and quite idle.
"Where does the Golden Cicada Mage want to go?" Jinping Mansion was originally on the edge of the "national border", and the dust stopped and asked Jin Chanzi knowingly.
"The poor monk is going to Tianzhu and looking for the spiritual mountain." Jin Chanzi replied in surprise on his face.
"Where can I find Lingshan?" Bichen asked again.
"Why do you need to find Lingshan?" Jin Chanzi replied.
"......" choked on dust.
Because of the consideration of the wind, in the places where mortals live, only Ao Lie often followed the golden cicada, and his sisters and pearls often made fellow travelers a little farther away.
At this time, hearing that the two of them seemed to be fighting, Ao Cunxin sneered: "If you don't need to find it, what's the point of spending nearly ten years to come here from Nanzhan Buzhou?" ”
"Excess Spirits along the way?" Bai Jingjing touched Ao Yu's head, who was dozing off on the side.
"Writing excessively, reading as eating?" Ao Cunxin pouted.
"I haven't eaten ......," Ao Yu didn't know which one he heard, and he protested in a daze.
"I didn't know earlier, but after the fourth princess and I arrived, I saw that the sixth princess had eaten the beasts that had not opened their minds, and the monsters who were full of ferocity and ignorance of dragon power although they turned into demons and opened their minds." Pearl chimed in.
"Secretly in line with the Dharma of Buddhism?" Ao Cunxin looked at the golden cicada with suspicion.
At this side, Bichen recovered and shook his head again and again: "Why do I want to fight with a reincarnated Buddha?" I'm here to tell you that your destination isn't so easy to find. ”
"I want to hear about it." The golden cicada responded.
"Tianzhu is the Buddha's dojo, Lingshan is where the Great Leiyin Temple is located, if Lingshan is within reach, follow the map, Tianzhu is not everyone can come to the pure land, everyone can see it?" Bichen seems to be copying someone's original words, which is a little blunt.
"Everyone has Buddha nature, and when you see yourself, you can see what you are." The golden cicada responded.
“…… I don't have time to talk nonsense with you," Bichen was slightly sluggish, and then shook his head vigorously: "I just want to tell you that Lingshan is not an easy place to reach, I have heard that there are people who seek Lingshan, who traveled west to Tianzhu and arrived at the border of Tianzhu, and inquired and learned that Lingshan is two thousand miles to the west, and after trekking hard, the news he got was still 'Lingshan is two thousand miles to the west', until he was about to leave the border of Tianzhu all the way west, and the news he got suddenly changed to 'Lingshan is two thousand miles east of this place'." ”
"Heh, it's indeed the style of the master." Jin Chanzi smiled: "But don't worry, the poor monk won't ask for directions." ”
Bichen pointed at the golden cicada with his hand, as if he wanted to laugh but couldn't seem to laugh: "Anyway, I passed on the words of the two brothers, and what you want to do is your business." ”
After seeing Bichen turn around and leave, Ao Lie asked suspiciously: "You have been in the West for countless years, and you don't know the way to climb the Spirit Mountain?" ”
"Amai Buddha," Jin Chanzi asked rhetorically, "Does Lord Ao know how mortals should act if they want to reach the Dragon Palace from the seaside?" ”
"Well, you have to find a way to dive into the dark deep sea first, and then crack the Dragon Palace Shielding Formation, and defeat the patrolling ...... by the way, etc., if it's really a 'mortal', then the first one can't be done." Ao Lie said suddenly.
"That's exactly the case," Jin Chanzi said: "The poor monk is a 'mortal' at the moment, although he can see the spiritual mountain, he can see Rulai, but first of all, he must be able to 'see'. ”
"What if you are not allowed to 'see' all the time?" Ao Lie asked.
"If that's the case, then he's already lost," Jin Chanzi said: "However, it is more likely that in this Tianzhu country, there is also an arrangement that conflicts with the concept of poor monks. ”
"Ha," Ao Lie replied, "just let him let the horse come!" ”

After leaving the boundary of Jinping Mansion, it was under the rule of Tongtai Mansion, Ao Lie asked an old man along the way and learned that it was a small country like Jinping Mansion, but it did not have much strength, and it was attached to Tianzhu early.
"If the master wants to go to Tianzhu, he may be able to take a detour from Sheweiguo in the north or Diling County in the south, but he can't go due west." The old man heard that the golden cicada wanted to visit Lingshan, so he hurriedly persuaded him.
"How?" Ao Lie, who looked like "I knew it was like this", asked, "Could it be that there are monsters there?" ”
"This son said with a smile, close to the Buddha country, where will there be monsters who dare to appear?" The old man responded: "To the west of this place, called Fengxian County, its land is rich in high-quality impatiens, sold to Tianzhu and then bought back the grain, originally they were upside down, only slightly more profitable than the grain households, and affected by the flowering period and grain prices, there are not many people to follow suit, but recently, for some reason, the impatiens in the whole county are ignoring the season and the flowering period to keep growing, the county guard ordered the whole county to plant impatiens wherever they have the conditions, and prohibit any monks and monks from entering. ”
"Isn't this obviously a flower demon," Ao Lie said, "That county guard clearly knows that if a mage enters the county, he can stop the flower demon from acting, but he doesn't care about it for his own selfish interests?" ”
"Amai Buddha, this is not strange," Jin Chanzi said: "Since those impatiens are sold to Tianzhu and the feet of the Buddha, they are naturally not afraid of what problems they will have." ”
"Impatiens? Is it tasty? Ao Yu asked.
"Well, I heard that it can be used in medicine...... Ao Lie thought for a moment: "If you confirm that the flowers spawned by the monster are not harmful, it will not hurt for you to eat." ”
"Little old man, if you catch the monster that makes the impatiens grow constantly, then the people of the county won't hate me to death?" The old man walked away quickly: "Little old man has never seen you today, and he has never said anything about Fengxian County-"
"The eyesight is average, and I can't see the monster's heels, but I can judge the strength of the third brother and the bald man," Ao Cunxin looked at the "mortal old man" and judged: "I guess it's the land of Fengxian County, and it's annoying to be annoyed by those flowers." ”
"It could also be a city god who is worried that the inhabitants will be affected by youkai." Ao Lie nodded in agreement.
"A poor monk is not a bald man." Jin Cicada said.
"Although the county guard prohibits those with magical powers from entering the country, who do we look like monks?" Bai Jingjing raised her hand slightly, took the black gauze hat given by a bone-faced servant, and then directly buckled it on the head of the golden cicada.
"I went out to play, and I heard that the rich sisters and bodyguards who came to see Fengxian County after the undefeated flowers, as well as the servants." Ao Cunxin smiled.
"Poor Monk ......"
"You reveal your identity when you open your mouth, and you are not allowed to speak until you catch the monster!"
————
"Incredible ......"
Because it is not at all like the monks and other people with magical powers, the golden cicada and his party smoothly entered Fengxian County, and when they looked around, they saw that the entire county was almost submerged by impatiens, white, pink, and purple flowers were everywhere, even if it was not suitable for growth, as long as there was land and gaps, a flower branch would also poke out, Ao Yu ate a few flowers when people were not paying attention, and it didn't take long for them to grow back directly.
Although the fragrance of the flowers is so strong that it is a little choking, the local people smile brightly when they look at these flowers.
"Strange thing," after pretending to be a tourist to tour the city for a week, Ao Lie said in surprise: "There is really no demonic spirit?" ”
"My minions didn't find it either." Bai Jingjing said as she pressed the corner of her forehead.
"It's more akin to the aura of a fairy." Pearl frowned and looked around.
Ao Cunxin...... is humming a little song and painting his nails with impatiens.
The golden cicada, who was forbidden to speak, shook his head, indicating that he had not found much.
While the group was at a loss, Ao Lie suddenly heard a young woman whispering to each other: "These rich women are really beautiful, almost comparable to the fairies of the county guard." ”
The county guard? If he didn't have a solid basis to confirm that this indefinite flowering period would continue, how could he dare to make the whole county grow phoenixes, and even the original grain fields would be abandoned?
After exchanging words, the group stopped their aimless rounds and headed straight for the county guard's house, where they unsurprisingly met a little fairy who was directing a group of servants to mix a basket of gray powder with a hill of impatiens seeds.
"The Third Prince of the West Sea?" When she saw a dragon son and a dragon girl, she was pleasantly surprised: "Please help Jade Rabbit!" ”
The servants who were working next to him didn't seem to see the extra people and their young lady running to say hello.
"Are you the Jade Rabbit of Guanghan Palace?" Ao Lie frowned and looked at the gray powder that was about "immortal medicine", the quality of which was inevitably too poor, and it could only be used to make flowers "immortal".
"No...... No, my name is Su'e, and I am the apprentice Gong'e of Guanghan Palace," said Fairy Su'e, who was the daughter of the official's daughter, "When the medicine jade rabbit was going down to earth to be a princess, she accidentally fell down together to stop her." ”
There are a lot of meanings expressed in this sentence...... Ao Lie raised his forehead: "Go on." ”
"Yutu, she originally wanted to become the princess of Da Zhou, but she failed inexplicably, so she turned to be the princess of Tianzhu, at this time, she should have taken the identity of the princess, please stop her before she does more things that violate the rules of heaven." Na Su'e said urgently.
"If she wants to become a sister of a poor monk, she is afraid that she will still lack some merit." Because he found the "flower demon", the golden cicada who could speak answered, and then was looked at sideways by a dragon and a dragon girl at the same time.
"Why did you give birth to these impatiens? Where are the original county guard's daughter and Princess Tianzhu? Ao Cunxin asked.
"I took her identity, and she should be in ...... Sleeping," Su E pointed to her head: "This 'Prayer Come' must fulfill the wish of the 'descended' person in order to leave the host body and return to her original body to move freely, and she hopes to cultivate a better impatiens to help the county guard - Jade Rabbit will definitely not be able to fulfill Princess Tianzhu's wish, I don't know how to make a fuss." ”
"Seriously, instead of helping the county guard, what you did will put him in trouble," Jin Chanzi shook his head, "Have you ever heard that 'scarce things are precious'?" With so many impatiens produced at one time, the total price that can be sold is likely to be less than in previous years. ”
"That county guard probably doesn't know how to buy and sell." Ao Cun said in his heart.
"Ah......" Su'e froze.
"Don't panic, we'll take over here, and we'll rush to Tianzhu as soon as possible after we deal with it." Ao Lie looked at the gray powder: "For these inferior immortal pills that can only be used by flowers, we just have some means to transform them. ”
