However, I didn't leave the land of the demon clan, but flew quickly in another direction.

Tonight is not destined to be peaceful, I have so much to answer as soon as possible, so every second counts.

After a few moments, I came to a familiar and unfamiliar place.

This is a low house, originally on the edge of the Buddhist formation, once I was here, the first time I met a sweeping monk, and also taught a rich businessman.

This time, however, I set foot again, but the place was desolate, with ten rooms and nine empty rooms, and the ground was covered with fallen leaves, and no one came to clean it again.

I sighed and stepped over the fallen leaves into the distance of the street.

The Buddhism of the Western Regions, once extremely powerful, occupied such a vast place with the power of one sect, and no one dared to provoke it.

But as the ancient powerhouses woke up one after another, the situation completely changed. After the passage of time, under the strong power of the Mu family, the Buddhist family was defeated and retreated, and even sold half of the land in the Western Regions.

This was once the territory of the Buddhist family, but now it has become a separate area from the Mu family, and it has become sparsely populated.

But it's not empty.

In the darkness, a light was lit in the farthest house. The lonely lamp is like a bean, and it looks particularly miserable and lonely at night.

I walked out of the room, this was the purpose of my trip, I must see him before entering the ancient battlefield.

Walking to the door, I was about to pull the door.

Squeak! The dilapidated wooden door was windless and automatic, and it opened by itself, I was stunned for a moment, then smiled and stepped in.

The room is not big, and you can sweep it all at a glance. There is not much decoration in this ordinary room, there is a table and two bamboo chairs against the wall, and along the table and chairs is a bed.

An old man with a long beard was sitting cross-legged on it, quietly turning the Buddha beads in his hand. He had a shiny scalp and no hair, and he was a monk.

Seeing me coming, the old monk smiled, he stretched out his fingers, and suddenly the bamboo chair in front of him flew and landed at my feet.

Then there is the table, including the cups on top.

A suspended teapot flew up from the teapot as if it had come to life, pouring the tea juice into the cup in front of me.

"Senior brother, I haven't seen you for a few months, and your cultivation is more refined than in the past." My eyes flashed with a different color, and I smiled and took a sip of tea.

This old monk is the old monk who sweeps the floor, his whereabouts are ethereal, since the last time he sent me to the Four Seas, we haven't seen each other for a long time.

I can see that the sweeping monk did not use his breath, everything was done naturally by these mortal things, and to be able to engrave the runes on these mortal things, it was obvious that the rune skills of the sweeping monk far surpassed me too much.

"You came to see me this time, but for the Ancient Way?"

At this meeting, the appearance of the sweeping monk looked even older, but his eyes were as bright as ever, with a look of insight, and he looked at me with a smile, as if everything could not be hidden from his eyes.

"Yes and no." I looked serious, put down my teacup and looked at him. The sweeper had already told me about the location, but also told me not to disturb if I had nothing to do. But this time, I do have something important to discuss with him.

"I want to know the attitude of Buddhism." I said slowly, "Will the Buddhists participate in the ancient path, and are they trustworthy?" ”

Hearing this, the sweeping old monk sighed.

"Senior brother, his personality is too introverted and indecisive, he is a minister who keeps the ground, but he is not a general who breaks the ground. If it is in a peaceful and prosperous era, senior brother is enough to revitalize my Buddhist family, but at this time, he is not as good as Jiguang. ”

I was silent for a moment, and now I know some inside stories about Buddhism, and I understand the deep meaning of the sweeping monk's words.

The contemporary Buddhas, sweeping monks and Jiguang are all true disciples of the previous generation of Buddhas.

Before the previous Buddha passed away, he hesitated between the heirs. In the end, he chose the current Buddha master, and for this reason, as a sweeping monk of the senior brother, he even had a normal relationship with the master, and finally left angrily.

"In other words, the Buddhists will not go to the ancient road." I said.

"I practice Buddhism talismans, talismans use the rules of heaven and earth, and also communicate with heaven and earth, I have a faint feeling at that time, heaven and earth are facing chaos, and although Jiguang has many flaws in character, he has a bold and courageous character, is good at making friends with people, and is thick and fine. If he leads the Buddhist family, this time the siege of the Mu family, even if the Buddhist family still has to retreat, it will not make the Mu family so easy. The Buddha Lord sighed.

Listening to the memories of the sweeping monk, I was quite embarrassed.

Jiguang was actually not good at drinking at the earliest, and it was precisely because of this setback that he gave up on himself, wandered around from Buddhism, and spent all day with wine.

"This should be the answer you like, you asked me this, not because you want the Buddhists to participate in the ancient battlefield, but because you want them not to go." The sweeping monk finally said.

"Senior brother, I really don't want the Buddhists to come in because of my heart or my current identity. Otherwise, it will be harmful to Buddhism. I didn't hide it, but nodded.

I have many identities, but one of them is the junior disciple of the sweeping monk, this identity has helped me a lot and allowed me to survive the disaster, but it is precisely because of this identity that I am inextricably linked with Buddhism.

Once the Buddhists also enter the Ancient Battlefield, it will be very difficult for me to do it.

Because what will happen on the ancient battlefield, no one can predict, if the Buddhists violate my interests, I can't be merciful, but because of the relationship with the sweeping monk and Jiguang, I am in a very awkward position, which is also something I must solve before entering the ancient battlefield.

"Take my hand beads, show them to him at a critical time, he owes me a favor, and he won't embarrass you again after seeing it."

I talked with the sweeping monk for a long time, and finally he handed me what he had in hand.

"Senior brother, aren't you going to the ancient battlefield together? I heard that there was an opportunity to become an emperor. Before leaving, I looked at him and said.

The sweeping monk is already dying, and I can see that if he doesn't make a breakthrough, he may die in more than ten years.

"Senior brother, don't get me wrong, I didn't intend for you to help." Seeing that the sweeping monk looked at me, I quickly shook my head. "Just ......"

"I understand, it's just that I have no fixed place to live all my life, and when I get old, I miss the old very much, this place is where I and a few junior disciples first lived when we joined the Buddhist family, and now when I see every grass and tree here, I will miss it very much. My heart is so tired that I just want to stay here forever. The sweeper shook his head, smiling and rubbing the table.

I understood what he meant, nodded, and left the place.

With the relationship between master and apprentice, it was very easy for me to enter the Buddhist family.

But I was a little surprised to see the person who came forward to greet me.

Before I entered the Buddhist house, I only informed Dao Fanyin of one person, but at this time, there were more than ten people who greeted me.

The lineup sent by the Buddhists was very large, and when I swept it at a glance, it turned out that most of them were people I knew.

In addition to Dao Fanyin and Huicheng master and apprentice, there is also an embarrassed Kundao Dragon Elephant master and apprentice, and the front is led by Guangmu Tianzun.

The monks around him are all very good, and they are all strong people who are not weaker than Kundao.

I was stunned for a moment, then reacted and smiled faintly. It seems that the news that I angrily slashed Hong Jinshan's arm yesterday and drank the countless strong people of the Hong family has reached the Buddhist family, and my rise so strongly has also made the Buddhist family change their attitude towards me.

"I've seen Uncle Shi, I've seen Uncle Shizu."

When the monks saw me coming, they clasped their hands together and called me out.

I was accepted as an apprentice by the sweeping monk, and my identity in the Buddhist family is extremely noble, and nine out of ten people in the Buddhist family are my juniors.

"Senior brother." The wide-eyed Tianzun also smiled very kindly, and stepped forward to introduce me to the Buddhist family.

The red-faced old monk stood far away, his eyes flashing with bitterness when he saw this scene.

He had had the perfect opportunity to take me as an apprentice, but he had given up on it, and he had said at the time that he would never regret it, but now he not only regretted it, but he regretted it.

In a short period of time, I surpassed him, and even more shocked the Mu family, forced the Hong family to retreat, and became a prince, and even achieved no weaker than the Buddhist family.

If he could insist on standing on my side at the beginning, his status in the Buddhist family at this time should be like the master and apprentice of Dao Sanskrit.

But at this time, it is too late to regret it, and the current red-faced old monk is not even qualified to say a word to me.
