Chapter 17: The Little Grass Flower Fairy bravely enters the Demon Cave
Xiaocao and several flower fairies were trapped by the magic array, and Xiaocao saw that the location was near the Batu Cave, and it was expected that this must be the Batu Cave. But the peach peony and even the lotus flower were hurt. But after all, all the fairies are immortals, and the immortal cultivation is also very profound, so they can be recovered as soon as possible after emergency treatment. Peony found that only Peony's injury was slightly more serious, and he couldn't exercise Xiangong for the time being. And the lotus flower is cured by its own exercises, and it is no longer a big problem. The fairies sat down to rest in a clean hillside while discussing their next plan of actionβ
Peony said to everyone: "Sisters, the situation is more serious than we imagined, what kind of force is this that actually hurt the sisters - don't be too nervous - Lotus, do you remember what happened to the two of us last time when we were looking for the Tianyi Master?" The key point of this formation is the same as that time, if the formation is an ordinary layman, a few lives are not enough for them to harm, those monsters really have some skills, I and Lotus can't surrender for a long time, it seems that this time I met them. β
"Yes, Sister Peony, it must be themβSister Lotus, it's Harry of the Batu Caves." Xiaocao said.
"I know!" The lotus flower had just finished exercising, and after gently exhaling a breath of fairy air, she said: "Sister Xiaocao, it must be the monsters of the Batu Caves, I look at the terrain and landform, it is not far from the Batu Caves, it's just-" The lotus thought slightly.
"Just what?" Peony asked urgently.
"It's just that what kind of formation was just now, it's so powerful! Sister Cao'er and I have fought with them many times, but I didn't find that they have such a powerful formation, could it be that there is some master of the demon realm again! β
"What do you mean, you and Xiaocao have also fought with them!" The peach peony asked questions almost at the same time, and looked at the lotus flower in surprise.
Xiaocao hurriedly took over the conversation: "Oh, it's such a few sisters, it was these monsters who bullied me in the first place, and I was bumped into by Sister Lotus and rescued me, so I formed a grudge with the demon world - and the Batu Cave has gathered demons from all sides to form tens of thousands of people in the Black Wind Army, conspiring to attack humans - although they don't dare to provoke my fairy world now, it is only because their strength is not enough to compete with us, and once they grow in the future, they will be enemies of my fairy world, and the flower world is in the outer layer and edge, and they will inevitably be the first to face the enemy- β
Ah-how can we still have enemies if we sisters don't recruit anyone to provoke anyone! Sister Lotus, is this possible? Peony said.
"It's entirely possible," Lotus straightened her dress, "these demons are constantly harassing the world and trying to dominate mankind. They are ambitious, brutal, and demonic, and they will become a disaster of the Three Realms in the future. β
"Lotus, then you say, what should we do now?" Peony asked Lotus.
"Peony, how are you, can you still hold on?" The lotus asks the peony.
"Yes, I can persevere, Sister Lotus!"
"In this way, our sisters must explore the basic situation today, everyone has been involved just now, now everyone has a simple rest, and then use the exercises to dredge the muscles and veins, and maintain the force." Lotus instructed: "What we strayed into just now must be a formation in the demon realm, the situation that Sister Peony and I encountered last time was very tragic, and those people died extremely strangely: they all spit blood from their mouths, and their souls were shattered - I had heard that the Holy Buddha of the Western Realm had a set of formations called the Great Law of Soul Liberation, no matter the immortals, people and demons, as long as they entered the formation, they were all sucked away from their souls, and they died of stealing blood from the hollow. Looking at the situation of those victims, it is very similar to this, but that Jizang is the disciple of the Buddha, and he belongs to the Buddha, so he will never let people use this Dafa indiscriminately......" Lotus Flower was slightly confused on her face.
"Sisters, don't care about these things for now, let's figure things out first, and then report it to Sister Baihua." Bi Tao said.
Peony came to Peony's side at this time, put her hand on Peony's shoulder, and asked with concern: "Sister, how do you feel, are you better?"
"It's okay, Sister Peony - Sister Lotus, I'm fine," Peony looked at the lotus flower as if hesitating and then emphasized, "I'm really fine." β
"Peony, don't lie, no one can have an accident, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to Commander Baihua...... In this way, let's go investigate again in a while, to see what kind of magic is so powerful, it is best to find a way to crack it, if it really doesn't work, just catch a minion demon and ask clearly! What do you think, sisters? β
Peony put his arm around Peony's shoulder and emphasized: "Everyone should be careful, if you break into a magic array like this again, don't be nervous, the first thing to do is to work hard to protect your heart, don't absorb the breath, sink the dantian, condense the soul, and at the same time close the Baihui acupoint, evacuate quickly, don't linger." Now is not the time to fight, we need to be safe. Hear me! β
"Got it, Sister Peony." The little grass and peach peony all replied in unison.
"Alright, sisters, let's go!"
With the order of the lotus, the grass and the flower fairies got up with their swords and patrolled north in the air: the black clouds just now had faded, and there were still wisps of thin clouds floating in the air in the distance, and the col still seemed to exude a cool atmosphere, which was bone-chilling and chilling. If you look closely, the small trees and other plants on the nearby ridges have withered and lost their lives; And under the wilted trees, a few hares and badger pigs were occasionally found, lying there in all directions, all dead...... In short, where I was just now, it was lifeless, ghostly, strange, miserable, mournful corpses, and creepy - fairies, see clearly, and pity arises spontaneously......
"Sisters, at the beginning of the opening of the heavens, all the Immortal Monarchs and Masters spent a lot of effort and skill to create the creatures in this world, and then look at this place, it is extremely desolate, these Black Wind Army, such a careless disregard for human life, and the living creatures, should be killed and scraped, should be thrown into the forty-nine layers of hell, and put into the cave and pump pool......" Bi Tao saw the bleak scene below, and said fiercely.
Peony also said: "The beautiful world has been ruined by these monsters, this demon and this monster are here to destroy the beauty of the world, it is really hateful, we don't want to kill them like cutting melons!" β
"Look, sisters, what's that?" Xiaocao pointed to a few black piles in a col in front of her.
Everyone looked at it and flew close at a rapid speed: they saw that there were several piles of human corpses on the ground of the mountain pass...... The fairies descended from the clouds and went to watch, only to see that the corpses were all embracing each other, with hideous faces and terrible images. There were also a few small corpses, presumably children of a few years old - the whole scene was horrible.
Seeing this kind of scene, Xiaocao Lotus was really shocked and trembled. Because they already have inextricable emotions for human beings, especially lotus flowers. They not only thought of Komatsu, Kotake, and her mother-in-law, but also of those friendly villagers, who were all very kind and simple people, how difficult their lives were, living a one-sided life, but not having peace, disasters and dyingβwho was provoked!
"These demons actually harm people in this way!" The peony fairy was in a hurry, and with a sword sweep, a dry little tree snorted, and almost fell to the ground together.
The lotus flower was even more angry and couldn't control herself: "Sisters! Give me ...... chase" Before the voice fell, he had already gotten up and flown away, followed by Xiaocao and others. They paddled over the mountain beams, flew over several hills, and saw the vicinity of the Black Wind Mountain. The grass was sharp-eyed, and there were a few backward demons walking on the mountain path on the left, one of them was still holding a flag in his hand, and the flag had the words Black Wind Army written on it......
Several of its fairies suddenly saw Xiaocao going down quickly, and they all hurried to come and see, and saw that there was a Black Wind Army below, and they were trying to kill it to relieve their hatred, so Hula all turned around and came down to the left.
A few little demons didn't know that the catastrophe was coming, and they were still discussing, and one of them said: "It is said that this little sixth son was originally the servant of the Buddha of Jizo, and he secretly learned the Buddha's soul-relieving formation, which is really a long experience, and it is very unattainable!" The other continued: "Come on, bench, but you can't envy this, you and I juniors, it's good to have something to eat, don't talk about it, lest disaster come." As soon as he finished saying this, he suddenly felt a gust of wind sweeping over his head, and hurriedly looked over his head: the grass had fallen in front of them, and he was so frightened that he lay on the ground.
"Stop!" The grass sword pointed at the little demon. A few little demons were confused and inexplicable.
The little demon lying on his stomach fixed his eyes: "Ah, it turned out to be a little beauty!" This guy didn't know the depths, stood up and greeted the one behind him, and said, "Come and see, where is the little lady, ahhh β
Xiaocao still had room for him to talk nonsense, kicked him early, flew out and knocked down a piece behind. At this moment, the lotus peony and the others also fell one after another, surrounding several little demons. A little demon took the time to run, and was broken in two by Bi Tao's sword, and he was already whining. Xiaocao pressed one with a sword here, and asked loudly, "Let me ask you, what kind of formation did you do just now, and who is the formation master?" Say! Bi Tao also pointed at this little demon head-on with the blade of the sword that still had blood stains: "Say it quickly!" β
The fairies came suddenly, these little demons had already been frightened, and now they didn't react to what was going on. The little demon trembled:
"I, I, IβI say! I said......"
We have already talked about it before: this formation is called the Dafa of Soul Liberation, also called the Soul Detachment Array, very early, Buddhism once appeared a disciple called Po Soul Suo, the generation is second only to Rulai and Jizang, this Buddha is outstanding, but the cultivation is not correct, regard the Buddhist precepts as child's play, and repeatedly teach and do not change, such as to punish him, he never accepts. Later, he evolved into a disciple who was not a Buddha, a Taoist, a demon, or a charmer, and he was ordered to take him, but he couldn't take it. If you come to find your junior brother Jizo and let Jizo study and create a higher than the Buddhist family to suppress the Buddhist disciples, Jizo has created this soul-relieving formation after several years of research, and the soul of the woman is suppressed and suppressed. After research and repair, it has become the highest formation of Buddhism, and this formation can be suppressed no matter which immortal Buddha and demon are located. Later, if you come to let the Jizo be carefully sealed, it is not allowed to be used without permission. It is used only when necessary to punish those who have gone too far in disobedience
There is a boy named Liu'er in the ground, talented and smart, and he secretly learned the essentials of the formation, he was originally learning to play, but it happened that once Taishang Laojun gave the place a few pills that had just been refined, what was the place to hide, what was not used, and it was inadvertently discovered by these six children, first tasted one, and thought it was delicious, so he couldn't help but spit it out a few bites. Jizo was greatly annoyed when he found it, and punished Liu'er for facing the wall for 900 years. Liu'er was born with a stubborn temperament, where could he stand it, left a fake body, and escaped...... Liu'er fled to the Nether, encountered the two monsters of the Black Wind, and quickly gained the appreciation of the Black Wind Cave, and was named the Marshal of the Left Army of the Black Wind Army, because the formation is not proficient, and it is only practiced to the fifth or sixth layer, so he is stepping up his study under the urging of the Black Wind Cave - it must be another drill just now.
"Is there a way to crack the skin?" After hearing this, Lotus asked the little demon eagerly. But a few little demons said they didn't or didn't know.
The fairies were all surprised when they heard it, so it was-
"What now? Sister Lotus. Bi Tao asked the lotus eagerly.
"These monsters must have returned to the Batu Caves, and we will go and destroy them, lest they harm people everywhere." Before the lotus could speak, Xiaocao preemptively spoke.
"Lotus, we can go and investigate, see the situation, and then make a decision." Peony suggested.
Lotus: "Okay, Bi Tao Peony, you two beat these little demons back to their original form, release their own lives, and then follow!" "Let's go with the grass peony in the clouds......
However, it was said that the Black Wind Monster in the Black Wind Cave urged Liu'er to step up the practice of the formation, and he praised Liu'er very much, and Liu'er was very proud. After several exercises, it was found that the formation was still very immature, and although it was very powerful, it could not last. And you can't be handy, just come as you say. So I'm practicing again today......
However, Liu'er was practicing, and when he was about to finish, a powerful force suddenly rushed over. Liu'er observed carefully, and saw that a piece of purple light rushed towards the formation, and the formation was all disrupted, the formation could not be maintained at all, and the formation could not be controlled-and then looked closely, countless peony petals, like countless sharp small swords, with huge energy, impacted the formation, Liu'er could no longer hold on, and hurriedly collected his work......
These six children used to follow Jizo and repeatedly contact the immortals in the heavenly realm, and they knew and were very familiar with the fairy world, and they already knew that there were immortals coming just by feeling, plus the fragrance of flowers that attacked, Liu'er knew that it was those flower fairies who were coming, so he didn't dare to slack off, collected his skills, and beckoned other monsters to run away quickly - these little demons were ordered to clean up the mess, and they didn't know what was going on, so they walked slowly-
Liu'er and the others ran back to the cave, and the Black Wind Monster hurriedly asked him what was going on, he only said that there was a Heavenly Immortal coming, which was not good for us, and asked the Black Wind Monster to go to the entrance of the cave immediately to deal with it, and cover it with a magic net, so as not to be rushed in.
The Black Wind Monster also has some skills: with the assistance of the Black Wind Demon, it actually changed the original mountain-shaped landform, tightly concealed the entrance of the Black Wind Cave, and covered it with a magic net, and from the outside, the entire Black Wind Cave seemed to have disappeared.
Xiaocao and a few fairies rushed in the direction of memory, and after walking for a while, Bi Tao and Peony also followed, but the veins of Black Wind Mountain were gone, and the Black Wind Cave did not exist.
"No, Sister Lotus, we're going in the wrong direction! This is not where the Batu Caves are, and it's getting farther and farther away. Xiaocao looked closely down and felt that it was wrong.
"Sister Cao'er, I also feel that something is wrong, isn't this the Black Wind Mountain" Lotus glanced down while brushing the hair on her forehead: "We don't seem to have been here before." We're going in the wrong direction. β
"What the hell is going on? Lotus grass, how could you go in the wrong direction! Yes! Haven't you two been to Black Wind Mountain?
"So what should we do, can we still go? Peony asked
"Sisters, let's go back!" The lotus made a decision after careful observation.
Peony and the others had no choice but to follow the lotus grass and fly back - and walked for a while, everyone felt that it was still wrong, Bi Tao felt that the lotus next to him said: "Sister Lotus, no, isn't it a place for us to heal and rest in front?" β
Lotus looked down and wondered: "Yes, it seems to be...... Sister Xiaocao, what's the matter, how did we get here? Hmm-" The lotus flower also groaned helplessly at this time, not knowing why.
"Lotus, let's go down and see, what's going on, it's all fascinating-" Peony said to Lotus.
Xiaocao also felt very strange in her heart, they were all celestial fairies, how could the situation occur, she tried to look around, and saw that the mountains were vast and scattered. The peaks are lined with misty clouds. Where is the feeling of acquaintance from time to time - Xiaocao is difficult to determine for a while, so he has to follow everyone and land slowly......
"Isn't this the place where we healed before, how did we get it, how did we come back here!" Bi Tao obviously felt that this place was very familiar, and she looked around to make sure that this was the original place.
When everyone saw that it was a familiar place, they sat down to rest. The lotus looked around, but she didn't see anything unusual. Xiaocao saw that everyone was a little disappointed, and said: "Sisters, don't be disappointed, there must be something wrong, that Batu Cave lotus and I have been here a few times, I won't find it, could it be that the geology here has changed." I read a book of prophecy from Our Lady of Prophecy, in which there is a technique called moving mountains and changing land, which is to change the original features of the landform, to take the original landform illusion here to another place, and to move the landform from other places to this place - don't the Black Wind Mountain be removed. β
Lotus hurriedly said: "By the way, this Heart Sutra Our Lady also let me read it, and it does mention this kind of magic, is there really anyone in the Batu Cave who understands this illusion technique, if so, then we really can't do it, we can't find the Batu Cave, how to subdue these monsters, how to report to the commander when I go back." β
"Listen to what you say, it's really like this, otherwise how could the Batu Cave disappear for no reason, I don't think it's better to do this, let Bi Tao and Peony go back and report first, and then we will investigate around to see if we can find some clues, and then make a decision, how about it?" Peony always makes reasonable suggestions.
Lotus looked at Xiaocao: "Sister Xiaocao, you can go back together, here I and Sister Peony can do it." β
"No, no, no, no, I'll stay with you, I won't go back." Xiaocao slipped to Peony's side and put her arm around Peony: "I won't go back, Sister Peony, I'm with you, I won't go back." β
Peony looked at Xiaocao, and then at Lotus: "Okay Lotus, let Cao'er follow us, I'll explain it to Sister Baihua when I go back, otherwise I'm afraid that Xiaocao will cry her nose-" said and pinched Xiaocao's nose with his hand: "I know Xiaocao had better cry nose, yes or no!" Ah......h
Xiaocao smiled and said, "That's right, otherwise I'll cry and cry...... Just cry. β
Lotus originally wanted Xiaocao to go back, on the one hand, the leader Ban Baihua has always not allowed forces outside the flower world to interfere in the things of the flower world, and now let Xiaocao go back, maybe Baihua can't say anything, otherwise she will definitely be angry and punish herself; On the other hand, seeing that Xiaocao's slender body has just been raised, and it needs to rest, and then toss with us, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to Xiaocao. But looking at Xiaocao's well-behaved and cute, I couldn't bear to drive her away, so I had to say: "Okay, okay, there's really no way, and I don't know where to come from, it's really worrying, after this time, let's go back to the bank of your Spirit River, so as not to always have to participate in the things of our flower world......"
Xiaocao is still smiling here, giggling: "Thank you to Sister Haihan, the fairy of Furong, Xiaocao has a little rules, no longer causes trouble, and is honest and ......obedient."
Peony also smiled: "Okay!" You little grass on the other side of the Spirit River, you can talk more and more, and I won't punish you when I go back. β
"Look, look, this is still messed up, I actually called my sister to come, don't you look for a beating, you Xiaocao" said and pretended to chase Xiaocao, Xiaocao hid behind the peony, pretending to stop the lotus - the other fairies laughed for a while, and then listened to the lotus say:
"That's it, Bi Tao Peony, you two will go back and report to the commander immediately, I and the two sisters of Xiaocao Peony are here to investigate and patrol, I still don't believe that I can't find any clues...... Hopefully there will be results. β
"Yes!" The two fairies of Bi Tao and Peony replied in unison, and Bi Tao asked, "Then do you want to send someone to pick you up again?" β
Lotus: "Not yet, wait until we find out the situation." β
Be! As soon as a crisp voice fell, the two fairies flew away in the clouds.
Lotus said, "Two sisters, let's go in that direction first and then investigate." Lotus pointed in the direction she was returning.
Peony Xiaocao: "Okay! The three fairies rose again and floated away. The three immortals looked at it, and the black clouds in that direction disappeared. It had been emptied, only two or three white clouds, floating faintly in the air, a clear and peaceful image, without the slightest sign of having just experienced a catastrophe. The three fairies flew slowly, and when they looked closely, there were still no traces of what they had just been burned. Everything is as if nothing happened......
"Two sisters, this is too strange, you see, it seems that nothing has happened, the grass is green, the mountain flowers are all kinds of colors, the trees and plants are thriving, there is a peaceful image here." The lotus flower was a little happy to see the beautiful mountains below.
Peony: "According to what you and Xiaocao said, these may be illusions, but in fact, the Batu Cave is hidden in the middle. β
Xiaocao: "Sister Peony is right, let's observe carefully, we will definitely be able to find flaws." β
"Good! If we look more carefully, we might as well expand the scope of our observation. Lotus said.
The fairies were looking for it, and suddenly they heard Xiaocao shouting, "Look over there!" β
The lotus peony looked in the direction indicated by the grass, and not only "Ah! A loud shout......
