Volume 1 Under the Reed Name Castle Chapter 61 The Way of Eternal Life
Chapter 61: The Way of Eternal Life
"At that moment, I saw a monstrous rage coming out of his back that could slaughter the whole world."
"What do you mean by anger?"
"I ask you, what is the pursuit of a person's life?"
"Power, wealth."
"No, no, no, it's eternal life, whether it's in the country of Ashina, in Yamato, or elsewhere, each region has its own uniqueness."
"Each region has its own unique environment, and the unique environment gives birth to unique culture, knowledge, history, living beings, and so on."
"Living is the cornerstone of all superstructures, and if you don't even have the opportunity to live, let alone any power and wealth, of course what I'm talking about is a general trend."
"Maybe different people have different pursuits, the Immortal Buddha and the Immortal Peak Master are pursuing eternal life, maybe the Buddha carver is the same, of course this is just my guess."
"I once said that there are only three ways to live forever, and that is the power of Longyin, the power of change, and immortality, but in fact, this is only the law of immortality in this region."
"In the Western world, there is also a method of eternal life - spiritual power gems, but what kind of Buddhist carver you are talking about should practice the method of the Eastern region - transcendence and ascension."
"Transcendental?"
"Transcendence and ascension, feathering and ascending to immortals. Ascension is a general direction, and there are three specific methods, to prove the body with the Tao, to break the law with force, and to kill the body to prove the Tao. ”
"They are the method of enlightenment, the communication of the avenue of heaven and earth to prove one's own body, which is similar to the Dharma, the second is the ascension of the refining body, the way of participation requires understanding, if there is only this one method, then it is not to deprive others of the way to seek eternal life, those who lack understanding in some aspects naturally want to find another way, to break the law, so that the sky recognizes their own way."
"And the third is the path that I speculated that the Buddhist carver took - the way of killing gods, this path is different from the other two, on this road only to fight is to step on the corpses of 10,000 people, defeat is the stepping stone of others, only keep killing, keep bloodthirsty can be possible."
"Killing seems to be a very simple method, but there is no simple truth in the method of eternal life, although God is a spirit of great luck that combines eighteen good things, but God is not without his own thoughts."
"The most powerful thing about the way of killing is that it can slaughter gods, but the first two top ones are only comparable to gods, and the two sides can fight equally."
"The Buddha carver has a lot of ambitions, threatening the existence of the gods, how can the gods let it go easily, otherwise there will not be only eight million gods, you must know that the living beings are counted in hundreds of millions."
"But the gods must not go against the way of heaven, the way of heaven is above the gods, so the gods cannot end the way of killing gods, but they can make stumbling blocks. However, judging from the results, the real enlightenment is more threatening. ”
"No matter what kind of Dao method, there is a risk of going mad, the risk is big and small, the way of killing gods is the most prominent, the more you kill, the more you are intervened by the god of killing, the god of bloodthirst, the god of life, the god of peace, the way of heaven, etc., the more it is, the easier it is to fail."
"And the cost of failure is greater than others, after all, the more you pursue, the price you pay should be equivalent, that is, you are lost and enslaved by power, either you will die out of yourself, or you will become an unwise butcher's knife and eventually be destroyed by others, if you are not destroyed, you may become a god, as for yourself at that time, it is two words."
"After all, these are examples from history books, although there are still many people who pursue this in the Eastern Continent."
"Is there no way to cure it?"
"Yes, of course there is, there are policies and countermeasures, and if there is such demand, there must be such supply, but the price is naturally equivalent. But I can't say for sure, after all, no one is a saint or a sage. ”
"You're not human."
"I'm going to talk to you about this, how can I be so narrow-minded, how can I bite something to death, I won't use it for a long time."
“......”
"The feeling is not very strict, if the price of eternal life is equivalent, is the price of Long Yin just a dragon cough?"
"First of all, there are regional differences, which cannot be regarded as equal, and different regions are sometimes not mixed, and another point is that before eternal life is before eternal life, and after eternal life is after eternal life, there is a world of difference between the two."
"At least I haven't been around the truly immortal, or you wouldn't have seen me, at least for as long as I was conscious."
"Is my eternal life truly immortal?"
"Your master may be considered to be nothing more than a vassal and a pseudo-immortal, or a parasitic existence equivalent to immortality."
"Well, are you interested in eternal life? Let's go to see the north and south of the river, travel through the great rivers and mountains, uh, cough~"
......
"The prince's ninja, welcome to you."
Get down on one knee and salute for a reason.
The precepts of the ninja and the absolute non-betrayal.
"In addition to technology, there's a little more... That's the precept of a ninja. The precepts are absolute and must not be forgotten. —Owl.
"I've brought what you want."
"Got it, then please leave it to me."
Even ninjas have things they can't do on certain occasions, such as the main hall where there is no blood, which means that you can't hand over bloody objects and such items directly, but assassination doesn't seem to be among them.
At this time, the small storage bag that was discarded before came in handy, and the two things that were originally in the storage bag were taken out and handed to Bianruoqingzi.
"Give."
"To make Ice Tears, you also need to collect fine snow and other accessories, but you don't need to prepare for these, not to mention that you don't have the conditions to prepare, so it will take some time to prepare."
"You can take this." After speaking, he handed out a string of green jade Buddha beads. "When a string of Buddhist beads turns blue and gray, it is the day when ice tears are formed."
"Understood." Take the jade string.
To turn around is to leave.
"Please wait for the prince's ninja, this is for you." As he spoke, he handed out a red bag.
"What is this?"
"Special rice, an item that will be used to eliminate Long Yin and return to ordinary people, is also a god rice."
"Goodbye then, the prince's ninja."
So it seems that there is one last one thing that has not been achieved to save the prince, that is the flower of Chang Sakura, and Yakushi Yongzhen once said that some answers can be found in these places in Ba's handwriting, and it is really necessary to return to the Buddha carving temple again, right?
......
"I'm very sorry, the prince's ninja, if only I could remember enough, if I could remember that incident, maybe I could save you, maybe it would be very different."
"I'm very sorry, Prince."
