In the reception hall, Mo Yue'er sat on a chair, and the Earth Demon Clan Patriarch and the Great Elder sat on the futon on the ground.

Seeing the arrival of the four people from the Buddhist Gate, the three demons stood up, saluted each other, and introduced each other.

As a strong man, although they were hostile sides before, they should still have the bearing.

Next, everyone sat down together, the three demons sat on one side, and the four Buddhas sat on the other side.

Yi Jiuxiao, Nizi and Wu Suifeng sat in the middle, acting as mediators and witnesses for the peace talks.

After sitting down for a while, Yi Jiuxiao took the lead in speaking: "Fellow Daoists, I am Yi Jiuxiao, the master of martial arts. Today, Buddhism and the demons can sit together and talk, it is really a fortunate thing for tens of thousands of years, and we are willing to witness the Buddha and the demons put aside grievances, eliminate misunderstandings, and turn hostilities into jade silks. You are all strong in the world, I don't need to say more, let's talk about it next, how about starting with the demon side first?"

As a mediator, Yi Jiuxiao must first designate one party to start, otherwise the two sides rushing to speak may cause disputes.

Mo Yue'er didn't speak, but motioned to the Demon Patriarch Mo Yan to speak.

Mo Yan first hugged his fist towards Yi Jiuxiao and said: "Thank you Lord Dao for mediating between the two of us, our Earth Demon Clan's request is very simple, the Buddha Sect must let go of the entry and exit channels of our Earth Demon Clan, we don't want to be imprisoned in a space, all the cultivators of the Earth Demon Clan are eager to have a piece of freedom." ”

The demons have already made their own requests, and then it will be the turn of the Buddha to speak.

The four Buddhists did not signal to each other, and directly spoke by Faxing, which seemed to have been agreed before.

Faxing also bowed to Yi Jiuxiao, and said: "Thank you Lord Dao for mediating between us and us, I'm afraid it will be difficult to let go of these five passages, these five passages are located in the five major monasteries of Buddhism, and there are a large number of demons, if you enter and exit them for a long time, it will definitely affect the cultivation and tranquility of our monasteries." ”

Mo Yan said expressionlessly: "Fellow Buddhists, our demons can't figure out why the Buddha sect wants to build the temple on this passage, and we don't want to say anything more, we just want to ask a few Taoist friends of the Buddhist family, do you want our demons to go out?"

Yi Jiuxiao thought to himself that this Mo Yan was really powerful, the demon clan seemed to be stupid, but his mind was actually very delicate.

Its sentence is to defend as an offense, and it suddenly throws the problem to the side of Buddhism.

Buddhism must not say that it is not to let the demons out, although Buddhism thinks so, but it can't be said.

In that case, there will be no way to proceed with peace talks, and there will be no point in the two sides sitting here.

The faces of the four Buddhists did not show embarrassment, but they all behaved calmly.

Immediately, Mingyu asked rhetorically: "Demon Fellow Daoists, can you Demon Clan say how to not affect our monasteries and the peace of the entire Brahma Continent after the passage is opened?"

Mingyu's words were also very crucial, and she threw the question back into the hands of the demons, letting them take the lead in guaranteeing.

Mo Yan thought for a moment before speaking: "If the Buddha Gate can open all the passages, when our demons enter and exit the passages, it will definitely not affect the peace of the various monasteries, we just pass through, and we will not do anything to invade the Brahma Continent." ”

The Buddhists were obviously dissatisfied with Mo Yan's reply, because he was too vague.

A debate ensued between the two sides, with both sides trying to defend their own interests.

The Demon Clan's Mo Yan and Mo Yun both participated in the debate one after another, while Mo Yue'er never spoke.

All four of them participated in the debate, and among them, Ming Ku said less, only one sentence.

Yi Jiuxiao listened on the sidelines, feeling that the two sides would definitely not be able to talk together if they talked like this.

The five passages of the Earth Demon Space are exactly among the five major temples, and it is almost impossible to do so without affecting them.

And neither side of the debate has mentioned the relocation of the temple so far, this method is too sharp, the Buddhists do not want to do this, and it is inconvenient for the demons to bring it up.

In fact, the temple is located on the passage, and this is the focus of the whole problem.

At the beginning, the five major temples were built on the passage, and their original intention was obviously to suppress the demons.

Now let them relocate, it is estimated that no temple will agree, because this is their own lineage.

Moreover, these five passages are located in various parts of the Brahma continent, and even if the monastery is relocated, it will also affect the Buddhist gate.

Thinking of this, Yi Jiuxiao already had an idea in his heart, but he didn't say it immediately.

He had to wait until the two sides had talked about the end of the day, so that they could accept his proposal.

So he listened to the debate between the two sides for a long time, and looked like he had nothing to do with himself.

In the ensuing period, both sides tried to take a step back, but could not reach a consensus.

The peace talks gradually became stalemate, and the two sides said less and less.

Yi Jiuxiao felt that the time was coming, but he still didn't speak in a hurry.

It's still too early to say it, and it's not yet the most helpless and weak moment for both sides.

After another half hour, the two sides finally talked about the point where they could no longer continue.

There is no anger in the field, but silence is more terrible than anger, and silence represents the death of the heart.

What Yi Jiuxiao wants is such an effect, he just wants both sides to die completely.

No one spoke anymore, either bowed their heads and remained silent, or they looked at Yi Jiuxiao.

Yi Jiuxiao looked around at the crowd in the field, including Nizi and Wu Suifeng.

The two girls sat in the field purely as a number of people, and they all showed a bored look.

At this time, Yi Jiuxiao smiled slightly and said, "I have a suggestion, I don't know if you want to hear it?"

He did not directly say the suggestion, but first determined the attitude of both sides, and also hung the appetite of both sides.

The seven of the Buddhas and demons nodded in approval, without any hesitation or reluctance.

Demon Patriarch Mo Yan said: "We, the Demon Clan, are willing to listen to the advice of the Dao Lord, and I believe that the Dao Lord will think about both of us fairly and justly. ”

Mo Yan's hand is very powerful, and when he said this, Buddhism had to express his position.

Sure enough, Fa Xing then spoke: "We Buddhists also believe in the justice of the Taoist Lord and are willing to listen to the advice of the Taoist Master. ”

Yi Jiuxiao nodded and said, "There is a saying in the world where I used to be, called the side of the couch, how can others be allowed to sleep soundly. ”

At this point he paused abruptly, just to see if the crowd could understand what he meant.

This sentence was originally said by Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, to Li Yu, the emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, but now it has been borrowed by Yi Jiuxiao.

It's a pity that everyone didn't fully understand, and they all looked at him with puzzled eyes.

Yi Jiuxiao smiled slightly: "The meaning of this sentence, by the side of the bed where you sleep, how can you tolerate other people sleeping there." If the demons are allowed to keep going in and out of the five major temples of Buddhism, I don't think Buddhism will be at ease. ”

Everyone understood this explanation, although the cultivators hardly sleeped, they also understood the meaning of sleeping.

And they all know that martial arts cultivators are mortals, and mortals have to sleep.

This sentence just speaks the heart of Buddhism, and it is also where Buddhism worries and worries.

Therefore, the faces of the four Buddhists all showed faint smiles, and they all bowed their heads slightly to show their approval.

On the contrary, the faces of the two Earth Demon Clan became a little worried, and they were not sure what Yi Jiuxiao's suggestion was.

Except for Mo Yue'er, she still has a calm and breezy appearance, and her expression has not changed in the slightest.

At this moment, Yi Jiuxiao spoke again: "There is still a saying in the place where I used to be, which is called beggar-thy-neighbor. ”

At this point he paused again, and saw the blank gazes of everyone in the room.

Then he explained: "The original meaning of this phrase is to transfer the evil to the neighbor. The two families of Buddha and Demon were originally neighbors, but they were only ten thousand feet apart, neither side could do anything that harmed each other, the Buddha Gate could not block the road of the Demon Clan, and the Demon Clan could not disturb the peace of the Buddha Gate. ”

Speaking of this, the faces of the two Earth Demon Clan turned normal, and they also knew that Yi Jiuxiao would definitely not be biased.

But having said so much, Yi Jiuxiao did not say his own suggestion.

Ming Ku couldn't help but ask, "Lord Dao, what you said makes sense, but what do you think we should do?"

Yi Jiuxiao said with a smile: "I suggest that the Buddhists give the Earth Demon Clan a way, so that the Earth Demon Clan has the opportunity to communicate with other continents, I also think that it is enough for the Demon Clan to have a passage, and there is no guarantee that the Demon Clan will not affect the Buddha Gate." ”

The four abbots of the Buddhist family all looked at each other, what Yi Jiuxiao said to give a way, which one to give?

None of the temples wants any demons to pass through, and as long as they pass, they will be affected.

In the end, Fa Xing spoke: "Lord Dao, our five monasteries are all above the passage, no matter which path is given, it is not suitable!"

Yi Jiuxiao nodded and said: "Master Faxing, it is indeed inappropriate, it is not inappropriate to give the demon clan a passage, it is inappropriate because the temple happens to be built on top of the passage, why don't we want to move a temple and make a passage for the demon clan." ”

Yi Jiuxiao said this sentence very seriously, and really talked about the crux of the problem, and said that the key node that neither the Buddha nor the demon dared to say.

The four abbots of the Buddhist family suddenly changed their complexions, and they had never thought of demolishing the long-inherited temple.

The scene of the peace talks became a little tense, and the faces of the three demons were solemn, and even Nizi and Mai Suifeng showed surprised expressions.

Only Yi Jiuxiao was still smiling, still calm and calm as before.

This expression is not fake, but comes from his heart.

He just said what he had to say, and his advice was fair and impartial.

If the Buddha and the demon don't accept this suggestion, it doesn't matter, then let the two continue to fight.

After a quarter of an hour, no one spoke, and there was a dead silence.
