Chapter 3 Behind the Mountains of Water

I have to say that the mana of the white snake is really not low: the water was diverted from the Qiantang River and flooded the Jinshan Temple far away in Zhenjiang, which was even more powerful than the flooding of the Yellow River.

When Ji Ming and Lin Xuan arrived there, the flood had receded, but the disaster caused by the flood had just begun: the collapsed houses left people without shelter, the rugged mountain roads made it impossible for them to get help from the outside world, and the corpses of those who died in the flood were decomposing, and various diseases and starvation made the number of people still alive quickly decrease.

In the village, the makeshift tents are still damp, not to mention sheltering from the wind and rain, and living in them can make you sick.

Many of the survivors lay on the ground, depressed, as if waiting for death.

"Amitabha!" The old monk ran tirelessly, treating one injured person after another, but his own life gradually passed away. Finally, after treating an unknown number of people, he chanted a Buddha name and passed away and went to the Western Heaven Elysium.

There were other monks in the village, but they did not come to collect the body of the old monk, but continued to treat the villagers.

"Stories are just stories after all, and romantic mythical love turns out to be accompanied by suffering." Lin Xuan said with emotion. As for Xiao Luo, she was completely stunned, and said in confusion: "Is this really caused by Bai Suzhen's water flooding Jinshan?" Why did she not only flood Jinshan Temple, but also so many innocent villagers? ”

Why?

Because Bai Suzhen is a demon, a thousand-year-old demon!

Although her mana is not on par with the heavens, it surpasses most living beings, and is even stronger than ordinary immortals. In the case of Fahai imprisoning Xu Xian and forcing her to be urgent, even if it was just an unintentional accidental injury, it would be a catastrophe of devastating magnitude for mortals.

And she doesn't necessarily care about the life and death of those mortals, because in essence, she is just a snake demon!

She can be incarnated as a female bodhisattva who saves suffering because of Xu Xian, or she can be a human being from now on because of Xu Xian, but those are just because of her gratitude and love for Xu Xian, and the definition of people in her heart is still one of thousands of living beings, nothing more.

Just like people don't care about how many ants they trample to death with one foot, Bai Suzhen in anger won't care about how many people will die if she goes down with a magical power.

"How can there be so many why?" Ji Ming shook his head and said with emotion: "A demon is a demon, there is an essential difference between it and a person, and the combination of humans and demons is really intolerable to heaven, not because of different races, but because people eat animals and monsters eat people, they are each other's food, and it is against the laws of nature to walk together." ”

Why is it said that becoming an immortal is a kind of detachment?

Because whether it is a human or a monster, after becoming an immortal, it is the same race: immortal!

While Ji Ming and the three were talking, on the other side, a great monk was treating the villagers.

However, because the injury was so bad, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't save it.

"Just because of your own anger, but you hurt so many people's lives, Bai Suzhen, you deserve to die!" The monk failed to save people, and looked up to the sky and roared.

"She's a demon, a demon ......," said another monk.

"Don't look at it, go back in time, and stop this from happening!" Lin Xuan said.

Hearing this, Ji Ming nodded, waved his hand, and returned to a few days ago, on the eve of the flooding of Jinshan.

In Jinshan Temple, the monks sat at the door, chanting and praying.

Fahai stood alone on the mountain road, without joy or sorrow.

"You caught Xu Xian and want to lure the white snake over?" Ji Ming walked over and asked.

In this regard, Fahai did not hide it, nodded and said: "That Xu Immortal is a good person who cultivates in the tenth life, and after this life is over, he will fly to become an immortal." The white snake has a thousand years of cultivation, as long as he follows Xu Xian and survives until the moment of his ascension, he can achieve positive results together and ascend to the immortal realm, which is unbearable for poor monks! ”

"Why?" Ji Ming asked.

As soon as the words came out, he reacted and sighed: "Heaven is unfair! ”

The white snake born in a demon, just because of the Bodhisattva's guidance, can achieve positive results, and even reap a happy marriage; And Fahai, who was born in orthodox Buddhism, has been slaying demons and demons all his life, but he has never been able to complete his merits. Who is a human and who is a demon?

It's no wonder that Fahai is full of demons, and he would rather go to hell after death than spoil Bai Suzhen's good deeds.

"Take a look at Bai Suzhen's past." Lin Xuan said.

"Hmm." Ji Ming waved his hand and took her back to the past.

But it didn't take long for the two of them to retreat, and they both looked gloomy - they saw Bai Suzhen eating people, and it wasn't one or two, the white snake and the green snake together ate the people of a town, and ate a prosperous ancient city into a wilderness!

The time is thousands of years ago, during the Three Kingdoms period.

"Alas!" Ji Ming sighed.

The white snake in the rage still came, fighting with Fahai, the water flooded Jinshan, and drowned all the way from the Qiantang River to the Jinshan Temple in Zhenjiang.

"Retreat!" Ji Ming snorted lightly, and used his magic power to retreat the flood and save the people along the way. Then, he knocked Bai Suzhen to the ground with one palm, and asked, "Have you ever thought that even if you find Xu Xian again, you will never be with him again?" ”

When Bai Suzhen heard this, she said with a firm face: "I don't care." ”

"Then you don't care, from now on, you will never be able to achieve positive results?" Ji Ming asked again.

Immediately, Bai Suzhen said again: "I don't care! ”

"And what do you care about?" Ji Ming asked.

"There are Xu Immortals in this life, Bai Suzhen has nothing else to ask for." White Snake said.

"That means that your love for Xu Xian is all you have?" Ji Ming asked.

"Yes!"

"If it's true, then you can go to the bottom of the Leifeng Pagoda by yourself and repent of your sins!" Ji Ming smiled slightly, and said: "The bad karma of the past, today's sins, let Xu Xian bear it with you, neither of you can become an immortal, or you yourself will fall into hell forever, let Xu Xian become an immortal, you choose!" ”

There is no doubt that Bai Suzhen chose to bear it herself and did not drag Xu Xian down.

"Amitabha!" Rao is monk doesn't understand love, and Fahai still can't help but sigh: "With this kind of feeling, the two of them can expect results." ”

Everything, it seems, is the same as the legend, but it is completely different.

"What weird theory?" Ji Ming darkened his face and said to Lin Xuan: "If you can achieve positive results just because you love deeply, then what else do you need to practice?" ”

In this regard, Lin Xuan chuckled and shook it: "Because you haven't experienced it, you don't understand." ”

"Huh?" Ji Ming was puzzled.

"What determines whether the two of them can become immortals is not love, but the firm Dao heart honed because of love." Lin Xuan said: "The biggest difference between living things and dead things is that living things can think, have things they want and don't want, and dead things are just dead things and will never change." ”

At this point, she paused for a moment and then added, "And good and evil, in fact, is just a joke." ”

Ji Ming: "......"

"Bai Suzhen has a backstage." Lin Xuan said suddenly: "Although it doesn't affect anything, maybe we should suppress Bai Suzhen's backstage first." ”
