In this way, Xie Baoshu took Ning Yuan's clay figurine and walked back step by step.

This clay figure didn't know if it could be put in the storage bag, Xie Baoshu forgot to ask Mr. Zhou Luan, so he could only take the bag away. He was a little scared, afraid that if he put it in the storage wrench, the clay figure would shatter. When it was over, Ning Yuan's soul was about to dissipate between heaven and earth.

The soul of a mortal will exist for seven days at the time of death, after which it will completely dissipate.

These seven days are called the first seven. After the first seven, the soul of a person will go to one of the Three Realms, the Ghost Yama Realm, and when the time comes, even the Great Luo Golden Immortal will be powerless. Monks are different, and the soul can stay in the body for forty-nine days.

The more powerful the monk, the stronger his divine soul will be. However, as long as you die, the soul will be less and less present in your body until it dissipates. People have three souls and seven spirits, and the more people can stay in the end, the greater the chance of resurrection.

If there is only one soul or one soul left, then even if you are resurrected, you may lose your memory.

Ning Yuan had just died, so the three souls and seven spirits were still there, and they could perfectly exist on the clay figures. The old gentleman Zhou Luan has great powers, so he can resurrect him, but I don't know if this Ning Yuan is still cultivating after the resurrection.

Xie Baoshu felt that cultivation should not be there.

In this way, after a long journey, Xie Baoshu returned to Ningguo. There are not many changes in the Ning Kingdom now, and under the management of the three princes, there is no turmoil at all. The only thing that happened was that the Tan family's Imperial Wind Realm monk, Tan Feng, heard that he was going to become a monk.

In the blessed land of night rain, in the entire Ning country, being a monk is actually not looked down upon. Because Ning Guo's family style is very eye-catching, that is, he attaches great importance to family affairs. The children of wealthy families all want to stay at home and spread their branches and expand their bloodline.

Tan Feng is the pride of the sky, not to mention that he is not only a high cultivator, but also has a good background and a good appearance. There are also family affairs in the family, and it was the old father who said it for him, and the other party is a young lady from a big family. I heard that she was born as beautiful as a fairy, and the people who pursued her could be ranked from Ning Guo to Chen Guo. Tan Feng has been married to her for many years, has only one son, and died young. Now Tan Feng actually chose to become a monk, and for a while, the news that the Tan family had a widow spread throughout Ningguo.

Ning Guoren is fierce, whether you are the Tan family or the Ning family as a royal family, you don't care about your identity when you are scolded. There are many rumors in the alleys, saying that Tan Feng is inhumane, so he chooses to become a monk. The son who was born at the beginning was actually born to Mrs. Tan and his daughter-in-law, so he died early. What's more, it is said that Tan Feng has raised a few concubines outside, ignoring the wife at home.

The eldest lady hooked up with Mrs. Tan. After all, Mrs. Tan, although she is old, may be very brave in bed, and she can add another brother to Tan Feng. When Xie Baoshu heard the news, he didn't feel anything, after all, there was something important. But he really thought that Tan Feng, who had fought with him twice, would actually go to become a monk. He felt that that person, not like a person who could see through the red dust, why would he go to become a monk?

Although Xie Baoshu would love to put his face under his feet, but now

, obviously not the time.

The first thing he did when he returned to Ningguo was not to find the three princes, but to go to the treasure house of Ningguo. This is the second time Xie Baoshu has come to the treasure house, and he has the token given by Ning Yuan, so there is no doubt that he can go in.

In the deepest part of the treasure house, he saw Ning Changjian, the oldest Jindan Sword Immortal in Ning Kingdom, who was sleeping again at this time.

As soon as Xie Baoshu walked into the treasure house, Ning Changjian woke up, and when he saw that Xie Baoshu was alone, he frowned and asked, "Ning boy, can't it be dead?"

Xie Baoshu nodded.

Ning Changjian sat up, although he had a premonition, he was still very surprised, and asked, "How is it possible?" Ning Xiaozi's cultivation can be regarded as the top in this night rain blessed land. What's more, he also has the treasure of the Ning family, the ink seven dragon hairpins. ”

It turns out that these seven dragon hairpins have a very nice name, Mo Seven Dragon Hairpins.

Xie Baoshu didn't know how to speak, because what happened in the East China Sea was indeed too shocking. But seeing Ning Changjian's expression, he couldn't bear it, so he moved a chair and let him sit. Then he slowly talked about the East China Sea, and Ning Changjian was very excited when he heard it.

After finishing speaking, Xie Baoshu handed the clay figure in his hand to Ning Changjian.

Ning Changjian is very old, and he has seen a lot of things, but when he heard Xie Baoshu say no, he was still a little admired. After all, these things have surpassed the cognition from childhood to adulthood. If Xie Baoshu told this to a mortal, then he would definitely think that Xie Baoshu was a liar, and maybe he would have to take a broom to drive him out of the house.

But Ning Changjian is a Jindan Sword Immortal, how could he not believe these things?

Holding the clay figure in his hand, Ning Changjian cautiously asked, "That old gentleman, is it really the master of this night rain blessed land?"

Xie Baoshu nodded, he found that many high-level monks in this blessed land knew that they were in the blessed land. He was very curious, his own home, Taoyuan Wonderland, is also one of the four wonderlands.

Why was it occupied by his grandfather, and no powerful monk appeared? Is it because of the old tree spirit? Also, is the former owner of Taoyuan Wonderland, the immortal surnamed Tao, still in the world?

Without waiting for him to think about it, Ning Changjian asked again: "What should I do with this clay figure, three years is a lot." ”

Xie Baoshu snorted and said, "You are the oldest person in Ningguo, so it is better for you to come forward and talk to the three princes." I don't know him very well, it's best if you come forward with the old age, this clay figurine needs three years of incense, you can think of a reason. ”

Ning Changjian also knew that there was not much incense in Cheng.

If he finds out that this clay figure is Emperor Ning Yuan, there will definitely be countless people who will come to worship. But it is inevitable that there will be people with insincere hearts, and this kind of incense is useless if it comes. In the future, maybe the golden body will be shattered, and it will affect the cultivation.

The golden body and the golden body want to be extremely strong, like gold. If the golden body is still like mud after it is completed, what is the use of this golden body? Just like Shen He, the water god of the Canglan River, she is now a ghost

The Qi Realm of the Three Realms of Immortals.

If she is now, she will build a temple and build a golden body. Once successful, as long as the incense is enough, she can torture and kill Liu Guanzhang, the county commander of Nawuling County. Even if Liu Guanzhang can manipulate the power of the entire county's landscape, it is useless.

It's a pity that Shen He can't shape the golden body privately without the consent of the Tang Dynasty. Because once this happens, it will be considered to challenge the authority of the Tang Dynasty and shape the golden body, which represents becoming a god. Without the consent of the imperial court, isn't that a slap in the face?

Shen He is now a water god, as long as he performs a little better, he will have a great chance to shape the golden body in the future. was afraid that her boss Liu Guanzhang would wear small shoes for her. Because there is no one in Shen He's court, Liu Guanzhang can arbitrarily oppress her.

Ning Changjian thought for a moment and said, "Leave this matter to me, thank you for this time." ”

Xie Baoshu shook his head and said, "Ning Yuan and I actually had conflicts before, but now we have reconciled. What's more, he also gave me a sword raiser, how dare I thank you for this little thing?"

After speaking, Xie Baoshu took out the Mo Qi Dragon Hairpin and returned it to Ning Changjian together.

Ning Changjian took the dragon hairpin that had been broken, sighed, and said, "The Moqi dragon hairpin, in the hands of the Ning family for so many years, it has never been broken, and today it is actually broken." Not just a good thing, it's a bad thing. ”

Xie Baoshu said with a smile: "It is naturally a good thing that Ning Yuan's predecessors can walk out of this blessed land. ”

Ning Changjian snorted and said, "That's true, Ning Kid has good qualifications, he shouldn't be here, he should go out and show his skills." Unlike the old man, I'm now dying, and the good world outside has nothing to do with me. ”

Xie Baoshu said with a smile: "Don't say that, seniors, by the way, let me ask, more than 20 years ago, was there a girl surnamed Xiao who came to Ningguo to challenge Ningyuan's seniors?"

Ning Changjian seemed to be reminded of his memories, and he said: "The girl surnamed Xiao, I have seen it, her qualifications are better than everyone the old man has ever seen, and she is a natural sword embryo." It's just that the old man wants to accept her as an apprentice, but she doesn't agree to it, and I don't know if she has an opinion on me. In the end, I have to challenge Ning Yuan, not the kind of challenge that stops at the point, it is a completely death-defying and desperate style of play. ”

Xie Baoshu was thoughtful, he knew Xiao Yu's character, it seemed that he wanted to make a breakthrough in a certain death situation, but he failed.

Ning Chang muttered: "In the end, that Xiao girl was not killed by Ning Yuan, but died of exhaustion, what a pity." By the way, since you asked, you must know him, you outsiders, if you die here, can you go back?"

Xie Baoshu shook his head, he couldn't go back.

Ning Yuan sighed and said, "It's a pity, such a good qualification, if under my teaching, the future will be a sword immortal of the Jindan Realm." It might be easy to surpass me. ”

Xie Baoshu said with a smile: "Don't worry, Fairy Xiao is fine, and now she is practicing swords at home." ”

Ning Changjian slapped Xie Baoshu and scolded: "Stinky boy, you dare to lie to me." ”

Xie Baoshu said hello to this sword immortal and walked out of the treasure house. At this time, he has two tokens, which can be unimpeded in the palace. He wanted to see what kind of person the three princes were.

Under the leadership of the guards, Xie Baoshu met the three princes.

The third prince's name is Ning Xiaohei, and Ning Xiaobai before him is a brother, born to a mother. Among Ning Yuan's many sons, Ying Xiaobai, the young city lord of Yingtian Ancient City, was reincarnated as Ning Xiaobai, which was like a flash in the pan and soon withered.

Since he went to Chen Guo, Ning Xiaobai has not returned.

Xie Baoshu found that the people who chose the name of this night rain blessed land liked to carry a small character. For example, there are three of them he met, Ning Xiaobai, Ning Xiaohei, and Ao Xiaoqing. He thought it was very interesting, after all, he had been to the blessed land, and there were more people in this night rain blessed land.

Qingsi Blessed Land is a tourist attraction, Ice and Snow Cave is a cultivation place, only this night rain blessed land, is a small world.

The third prince, Ning Xiaohei, does not look black at all, he is copying books at this time, very seriously. Beside him, there was also a father-in-law standing, who turned out to be a cultivator in the Wind Realm. It seems that Ning Yuan really likes this third son and sent him such a master.

Ning Xiaohei's pen is very energetic, and the words he writes are also very calm, and he looks like a child who is not bluffing. He looked very serious, and he didn't notice Xie Baoshu walking in at all. It seems that it is not for nothing that Ning Yuan likes this child so much.

In troubled times, an emperor who can fight is needed.

In a stable day, an emperor who can govern the country is needed.

Ning Xiaohei, he looks pretty good.

When Xie Baoshu approached, the old eunuch was very nervous and stood in front of Ning Xiaohei. However, when he saw the token on Xie Baoshu's waist, he gave way. Seeing the token is like seeing the Son of Heaven, it is obvious that Xie Baoshu's identity is recognized by Ning Yuan.

At this time, they didn't know that Ning Yuan was dead.

Finally, Ning Xiaohei put down the pen in his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Xie is here, how about a cup of tea?"

Xie Baoshu shook his head and said, "I'm just coming to see you, your grandfather will talk to you about your father later, you have to be prepared." ”

Ning Xiaohei seemed to have guessed something, was silent for a moment, and sent Xie Baoshu out very politely.

Xie Baoshu just wanted to take a look at the third prince, and now that he saw it, he was naturally leaving. Waving his hand to interrupt Ning Xiaohei's farewell, he walked in the palace, feeling that the monk's aura was a few less than before, and it seemed that he had left.

In his mind, that number also became fifteen.

There are still fifteen outsiders alive, and his heart is very calm, among these fifteen. Xu Wanfeng must be fine, and the down-and-out Sword Immortal Qu Cheng must be fine, I don't know where the other twelve people will be. In the palace of Ning Kingdom, there seem to be four more now.

Xie Baoshu didn't plan to meet these four people, he had more important things to do.

In the palace, he inquired about the location of Jiming Temple and immediately rushed over. This Jiming Temple is not in Ning

The capital of the country, and a small city next to it, this small city, does not belong to the Tan family.

The people of Ningguo do not worship Buddhism very much, so there is not a single temple in the capital. But outside the capital, there are actually many small temples. Xie Baoshu found that the inheritance of Buddhism is everywhere. Now the base camp of Buddhism is in the Peacock Country in the West Heaven, where Buddhism is prosperous, and I heard that there is also a spiritual mountain.

But in the Tang Dynasty, there are also such an existence as Bodhi Prefecture and Yulong Temple.

If it weren't for a Tang emperor who ordered the extermination of Buddhism, maybe the power of the Buddhist family would be even greater now, more than just a state. Xie Baoshu felt that the Buddhist family was really powerful, and after experiencing such a thing as destroying the Buddha, he could still sit on the believers of a state.

In this blessed land of rain and rain, there are also seeds of faith.

Although it is not much, it has taken root and sprouted, and this Jiming Temple is a very ordinary seed. Maybe the people in it are not monks, just to promote the Dharma. Xie Baoshu didn't know much about Buddhism, and he went to Jiming Temple this time just to meet that Tan Feng.

Tan Feng was a monk in Jiming Temple, and this Jiming Temple has nothing to do with the power of the Tan family, so he chose here.

Xie Baoshu rushed to Jiming Temple as quickly as possible, there are no people here, it seems that the Buddhist family is in Ningguo, and it is really not very popular. And the monks inside looked very poor, and their clothes were all torn.

Xie Baoshu was very polite and asked the little master who swept the floor: "May I ask Tan Feng Tan donor, but you are practicing here?"

The little monk sweeping the floor glanced at Xie Baoshu, folded his hands, and said, "There is no Tan donor here, only a monk who knows it, is the donor looking for him?"

Xie Baoshu nodded, he estimated that this was Tan Feng's legal name.

The little monk glanced at Xie Baoshu, put down the broom in his hand, and took Xie Baoshu through the hall to a Buddhist hall. There is a huge bronze bell here, and in front of the bronze bell, there is a middle-aged monk who is practicing.

Face, it's that Tan Feng!

Xie Baoshu really didn't expect that this Tan Feng would really become a monk. Who is he? The little son of the Tan family, who is young, is the Yufeng Realm, and there is a wife at home. How could you be so unthinkable and become a monk?

Suddenly, it seemed that the hour had come, Tan Feng, now that the Dharma name was clear, he stood up, hugged the huge log with both hands, and began to ring the bell. Seeing this, the little monk on the side hurriedly left Xie Baoshu and ran in the other direction.

Xie Baoshu once read some Buddhist knowledge, the temple bell should not be rung randomly. Because the bell represents solemnity and calmness, upright and serene, it has been one of the most important ritual vessels in the temple since ancient times.

There was once an emperor who asked a monk for advice on how to get rid of the suffering of hell?

The monk replied, "Human suffering cannot disappear for a while, but if you can hear the bell ringing, you can stop for a while." ”

So, the emperor ordered that the temple should ring the bell every day. In front of the main hall of the Buddhist temple, there should be bells on the left and right sides, but this Jiming Temple, there seems to be only one bell in front of Xie Baoshu's eyes, and it is very dilapidated

, heavy, presumably because of poverty.

In addition to daily eating, sleeping, the bell also has a warning effect. Ringing the bell in the morning is to wake up the world from the ignorance of the long night, and the evening bell ringing is to wake up the world's dim confusion, also known as the ghost bell.

The temple bell rings one hundred and eight times in the morning and evening. At night, the drum is struck first and then the bell is struck, while the drum is struck while holding the mantra, and then the bell is struck after the drum, and the bell is struck slowly and then quickly, slowly eighteen times, fast eighteen times, and repeated three times, totaling one hundred and eight times. In the morning, the opposite is true, the bell is struck first and then the drum is beaten, and the bell is fast and then slow.

Xie Baoshu looked at Tan Feng who was ringing the bell, and he had mixed feelings in his heart.

Before coming here, he really wanted to step on Tan Feng's face. But seeing him ringing the bell so seriously now, I was a little entangled in my heart.

Tan Feng, no, it should be clear, after ringing the bell, he saw Xie Baoshu, folded his hands, and said: "If you don't understand, thousands of miles will be in vain." If you are enlightened, there will be a spiritual mountain under your feet. This is a sentence that the abbot gave me today, donor, is there anything to find me?"

Xie Baoshu smiled: "Don't you remember me?"

He shook his head.

Xie Baoshu asked again: "Then do you remember Tan Yu?"

There was a sudden silence.
