Chapter 800: The City Lord's Small Tricks
Since the Huangquan Ghost Mother was in an epiphany, everyone had to protect her around the Dharma, while Qin Chuan communicated with Ejie through divine thoughts, "Why did you deliberately attract the attention of the Buddha envoy just now?"
Ejie knew it was useless to deny, "I'm interested in his physical body?"
"You're going to take him?"
"I have this idea, but it's also for you, don't you want to seize the treasure that covers the heavens and shields the five decays of heaven and man?"
Qin Chuan sneered, "I had this idea, but if you kill the Buddha envoy, do you think that Amitabha Buddha will let me go?" Not to mention that the underworld is his territory, if you want to find death, don't pull me in, if you dare to play this little trick without my permission, I will directly send you to reincarnation!"
"Did you just give up?"
"Hmph, I know that you hate Amitabha Buddha and want to kill his Buddha to make it angry, but I have my plan, I hope you can figure out your situation!" As he spoke, he launched a ban rooted in his primordial spirit, and at first Ejie forcibly held back, but even the primordial god of Da Luo Jinxian could not resist the pain from the depths of his soul.
"I... I know it's wrong, Daoist friends spare me this time!"
"Remember, there's no next time!"
"Got it!"
Qin Chuan stopped tossing and waited, and waited for the other party to recover for a while before continuing to ask: "Isn't it possible to reshape the physical body above the realm of true immortals, you can have your own body after you ascend, why do you need someone else's?"
"Do you know, this immortal body of his is a refined empty immortal body, the mirror heart is clear, and it is not stained with mortal dust, which is of great benefit to us who cultivate Buddhism!"
"Hehe, you are blinded by hatred, and you are greedy, I don't think this Buddha can be cultivated~"
Ejie smiled bitterly, "Since I broke the killing ring last time, my Buddha's heart has long been shaken, and now I just want to resume my cultivation, and the matter of reshaping the Buddha's heart can only be said later!"
"Oh, the Buddha's mind can also be reshaped?"
"Why not? There are people who put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot, although it is troublesome to reshape the Buddha's heart, it is not impossible!"
Qin Chuan was speechless, if the cultivator's Dao heart was broken, the path of cultivation would basically be cut off, but he didn't expect that the cultivation of Buddha would be able to come back, which made his understanding of Buddhism a higher level.
......
The Huangquan Ghost Mother stood for most of the day before she came to her senses, and saw that everyone was grateful for her Dharma protection.
Everyone didn't ask her what insights she had gained, this was someone's chance, and she asked about the taboo.
The next thing is to find a place to settle down, and come to the east of the city, where the back of the mountain is strong, and the yin qi is strong, and many high-ranking monks in the city live there.
I first went to the management agency of the shops and caves in Fallen Soul City, and a director of the Hedao period told everyone very politely that because of the selection of Buddhas, there were more foreign monks, and there was no cave mansion for rent to the outside world.
This reason is very powerful, but it's hard to say whether it's true or not, you must know that the Fallen Soul Monarch here has the final say, and according to what this old monster did before, it is not impossible to play some small tricks that are not on the table.
In fact, as soon as Qin Chuan and the others left, someone came out from behind the palace, and then said to the steward with a smile: "The city lord just wants these guys to sleep on the streets, and other places have been notified, right?"
"Several places where the caves are concentrated have been notified, but there are still some scattered caves, which are privately owned, so it is inconvenient for us to interfere!"
"Well, I'll arrange those places!"
......
A group of 100 people turned around most of the city, hitting walls everywhere, obviously there are caves to rent, but the person in charge flatly denies it, which is already very revealing.
"What should we do, do we really want to live outside the city?" Ye Lifeng finally couldn't hold it back, how could he have been so angry in Demon Wind City?
"If they live outside the city, they can't blatantly knock on the door, if they live outside the city, they will definitely not be at peace for a while in the future?" Gu Tiandu said.
"It's not good, it's not good, can we just wander the streets?"
"You can try to find a broker!" Xiong Kuohai came up with an idea.
Everyone thinks this method is good, those brokers are all land snakes, even if the Fallen Soul Monarch makes it bad, it is impossible to entrap everyone.
Near the teleportation hall is the place where the brokers are concentrated, as soon as they heard that there is a commission for a thousand soul stones, immediately seven or eight brokers surrounded them, Gu Tiandu did not bargain at all, as long as there were as many dark stones as there were caves, so the business was quickly negotiated.
However, just as they were about to rush to the location of the cave, they were confronted by several patrol guards, and as soon as these brokers saw these people, they immediately greeted them, their faces full of flattery.
"Come here, I have something to say!" said one of the guards.
"Commander, what do you command?"
"The city lord has an order to requisition a hundred cave mansions, and you are limited to report it within half a day, otherwise you won't be in the Fallen Soul City in the future!"
"But we..."
"It's nothing, you can not listen to Lao Tzu's words!"
Qin Chuan and the others heard the conversation between the two sides clearly, and the Hell King couldn't bear it anymore, and was about to make a move, but was stopped by the Huangquan Ghost Mother, and then pointed in a direction.
The Hell King looked up and saw that his lungs almost exploded, but he was helpless, because the City Lord's Mansion was only a few hundred zhang away from here, and the Buddha envoy lived in the City Lord's Mansion, and the Fallen Soul Monarch was standing on a building, smiling at this side.
"Alas... Let's change places, there are more brokers here!" Gu Tiandu persuaded him, but his eyes were fixed on the city guards, and the meaning in his eyes was something that everyone could feel.
The city guard commander didn't dare to really shout, otherwise this group of people would rush up, even if the city lord came over, he wouldn't be able to save him, but those brokers didn't dare to offend these city managers, wrong... It was the city guard, and the ghost cultivator who received the commission obediently retired the dark stone and apologized.
Stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, not to mention that these brokers are also forced to be helpless, but the grievances in everyone's hearts can be imagined, especially when they see the underbeaten face of the Fallen Soul City Lord, if it weren't for the scruples of the Buddha's envoy, how could everyone care so much, they would definitely rush up to extract their souls and refine their souls and shatter their corpses!
Walking along the street, hoping to meet the brokers who took the initiative to talk to them, I don't know if the city guards had already warned them, and the brokers who usually seemed to be everywhere did not meet any of them.
When passing by a wine shop, Qin Chuan glanced at it very casually, when he first came to Falling Soul City, he and the Huangquan Ghost Mother had feasted the Holy Child Ghost Ancestor here, and later he knew that it was a two-faced guy.
"Well, what a coincidence!" he paused.
"What's wrong?" asked Ye Lifeng, who was beside him.
Qin Chuan smiled slightly, "The place where we live may have fallen!"
"Have you met an acquaintance?"
Qin Chuan nodded, and sent a message to the Huangquan Ghost Mother, "Your old friend is here, we can ask him for help!"
"You mean the Holy Infant Old Monster, that guy's backer is the Fallen Soul Monarch, he won't help us!"
"He calculated us last time, and it's time to pay it off this time!" Qin Chuan smiled playfully.
"You mean..."
"Tell everyone, get ready!"
The Huangquan Ghost Mother had long been convinced of him, and she didn't ask any questions, and immediately communicated with Gu Tiandu and the Hell King.
A long scroll sank into the void, and after a dozen breaths, the liquor shop in front of him disappeared out of thin air, as if this was a void at all, and the pedestrians on the street immediately stopped, walked over with curiosity, and disappeared out of thin air.
About half a cup of tea later, the liquor store was still the same liquor store, and the drinkers dispersed in a hurry, only the shopkeeper went to the city guard with a bitter face to report.
Outside the city, in a desolate place, Gu Tian was carrying a big-headed boy, and the boy's face was swollen like a purple eggplant, "Gu Daoyou, it's not that I don't want to help, the city lord has an order, I really don't dare to disobey him, otherwise I won't be able to mix in Fallen Soul City in the future!"
"I don't care if you can mess around in Fallen Soul City, now I give you two choices, one is to arrange a place for us to live, and the other is to die immediately!"
"What nonsense to talk to him!" The Hell King went up and slapped him again, and that face was deformed immediately, but fortunately, the other party was also a ghost cultivator in the Mahayana period, and the strength of his physical body was not bad, otherwise his head would have been pumped away with this slap.
"It's useless for you to beat me, I really can't help it!"
The Hell King was about to fight, but was stopped by the Huangquan Ghost Mother, "Holy Infant Daoist Brother, I know your ability very well, since you are unwilling to cooperate, we can't force it, Qin Daoyou, I'll leave it to you!"
"Sister Huangquan, you can't do this~" The Holy Infant Ghost Ancestor looked at the red fire lotus beating in Qin Chuan's hand, and his eyes showed a look of horror.
"Tsk, Red Lotus Karma Fire, that must taste good, Holy Infant Dao is friendly and tasted!" Gu Tiandu said jokingly.
The screams came quickly, and almost all the ghost cultivators in the underworld had tasted the taste of karmic fire, but most of the people who encountered the red lotus karmic fire had already turned into ashes.
Hearing the shouts of the grits man, everyone felt chills in their hearts at the same time, but also a little happy, and the anger accumulated during this period of time was released a lot.
"Ahh I'll leave the matter of the cave to me, don't burn it anymore, ah..."
Qin Chuan withdrew the Red Lotus Karma Fire and patted the distorted baby face, "I still have the Red Fire Thunder Gang, the taste of that thing poured into the body is more refreshing, do you want to taste it?"
"No, don't~" The Holy Infant Ghost Ancestor snorted, "Don't torture me anymore, I will agree to whatever you ask, as long as I am let go afterwards!"
"Well, Gu Daoyou, this matter is over to you!"
Gu Tiandu smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Qin Daoyou, I guarantee that he won't dare to play tricks anymore!"
......
Half a day later, everyone returned to the Fallen Soul City, although there are only three caves, but the places are big enough, and the environment is quite good, especially the Holy Child Ghost Ancestor's own cave mansion, which can be called a mansion.
There are no less than 100 people living in the three caves, but the ancient heavenly capital and the Hell King have the cave heaven magic weapon, and the people and horses they belong to can enter the cave heaven magic weapon to rest, and Qin Chuan has the smaller one alone.
As soon as this side was settled, the Fallen Soul Immortal Lord came to the door with a large number of city guards.
"Hell King, Gu Tiandu, you dare to hijack the Holy Child Daoist in the Fallen Soul City, today you don't blame the city lord for acting according to the city rules!"
"Are you mistaken?" Gu Tiandu laughed.
"The facts are all there, you have forcibly occupied other people's caves, and you dare to deny it?"
The Hell King pursed his lips and brought the Holy Child Ghost Ancestor over, "You told him that we held you hostage?"
"No... Nope!"
"Have we taken your cave?"
"Neither!"
"I heard it, people said no, old ghost, I think you are salty and eat radish and worry about it!"
The Fallen Soul Monarch's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Holy Child, you have to think clearly before answering!"
The Holy Child sensed a sharp pain in the Yuan Shen, and hurriedly said, "I have figured it out, they are invited by me!"
"Hehe, I heard you... City Lord, this is a private cave mansion, do you still want to force your way in?" Gu Tiandu said jokingly.
The Fallen Soul Monarch's eyes stared at the Holy Infant Ghost Ancestor like a sharp sword, and the Holy Infant opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say a word, he knew that as long as he didn't say half a word, he would soon be gone.
The Hell King took a big step forward, "Fallen soul old ghost, if there is a kind, you will fight, Lao Tzu will accompany you!"
"Hmph, you'd better not fall into my hands, let's go!" If in the case of occupying the righteousness, the Fallen Soul Immortal Monarch is not afraid to do it, because the Buddha envoy lives with him, and he must give him face as the master no matter what, not to mention that preaching for the Buddha is inseparable from his support, otherwise he would not choose to choose the Buddha in his Fallen Soul City.
"Something that doesn't have eggs!" the King of Hell wanted to fight to relieve his frustration, but there was nothing he could do without him.
......
With a place to stay, everyone settled down in the Soul City, the Buddha envoy would preach the Fa every seven days, Qin Chuan went twice and was no longer interested, even the Hell Dharma King, who was committed to participating in the selection of the Buddha, did not arrive every time, but the Huangquan Ghost Mother did not fall back again, and seemed to have the intention of turning to Buddhism.
Perhaps because the Buddha envoy was sitting in the city, he thought it was the Fallen Soul City of the Longtan Tiger's Lair, which was surprisingly calm, and even the Demon Flame Emperor did not come to provoke.
In fact, there is another important reason why no one comes to the door to find trouble, that is, the King of Hell has basically lost the qualification to compete for the position of Buddha, and in this case, it is very unwise to provoke an opponent who is not an opponent.
Qin Chuan has not been idle for a period of time, every half month he will avoid his eyes and ears to go outside the city, the purpose is naturally to prepare for the back road, he knows very well that the current calm is only on the surface, in fact, the dark tide is surging, especially after the Buddha envoy announced the specific conditions for the selection of the Buddha, the atmosphere was immediately a lot tense.
The first condition, that those who are running for the Buddha's son must have a cultivation level or above in the Mahayana period, has actually spread for a long time, but this time it is clearly announced.
The second requirement is that candidates have the ability to propagate the Dharma for the Buddha.
Very empty conditions, but very important, in the entire sixteen domains of the underworld, there are no less than 100 ghost cultivators above the Mahayana period, but many of them are secluded in the mountains and rarely contact with people.
Thirdly, it is better to have a wisdom root, this condition is too ethereal, and only the Buddha can grasp it.
In fact, this third article is the most important for Buddha cultivators, but the Amitabha Buddha did not want to choose a promising Buddhist disciple this time, but had another purpose, so this article can only become a "plus" condition.
