Chapter 54: Tribulation

Wei Wencheng was flickered by the white light coming in from the window, and couldn't help blinking his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw that it was pitch black all around. www.biquge.info Could it be that the lamp and candle beside the couch were blown out by the wind, but he instinctively felt that he was no longer in the meditation room.

Just now I was looking at the window in the meditation room, although it was the darkest hour before dawn, there were always some small pieces of starlight in the sky, and Wei Wencheng was not only not night blind, but since he cultivated the Tao, his ears have become deaf and his eyes have become brighter, and it is easier for ordinary people to see through the darkness. Now it's really out of sight, and it's clearly in another place.

Wei Wencheng was shocked and frightened, and was about to cast the spell on the Heavenly Book, and a piece of light lit up on his fingertips, but before the spell could be recited, suddenly, the light appeared. He found that the light was shining from above, and when he looked up, he looked around as if he were sitting in a well, and looked around, and the well was large enough, more than three feet in diameter, and he was standing in the center of the bottom of the cylinder.

Just feeling confused, there seemed to be movement above his head, and when he looked up again, he saw a huge face appearing above, almost covering the entire "well" mouth. He couldn't help but be shocked and asked, "Who is the Immortal Chief?"

――This is actually illogical, since it is a "fairy chief", how can it be a "human"......

The key is that he looks at that face, the skin is fair and immature, like a child, but there is white hair on the top and a white beard on the chin, it is obvious that it is not a Buddha or Bodhisattva, it should be a Taoist immortal, right?

I saw that the "immortal" smiled slightly: "Senior brother, I have come to guide you to the right path." ”

Wei Wencheng frowned, and said in his heart, why do immortals call themselves "junior brothers"? The other party seemed to see through his thoughts, so he immediately asked: "In the past, you were in the forest house cave, and the master had no surname, so he thought about it?"

Wei Wencheng nodded and said yes. The other party smiled and said: "Master Duan has now attained the Tao, and he is called the 'Void Demon Lord', and I am also a disciple in front of him." If you talk about the order of entry, you should have been called 'senior brother', but you have gone astray and cannot be long, so you are a younger brother. ”

Wei Wencheng's surprise was really not small. It seems that the "Realm King" did not expect badly, Duan Siyun really entered the Demon Dao, and the so-called "Void Demon Lord" refers to him...... That guy originally had ordinary skills, otherwise he wouldn't have been easily taken down by a monster, and he was able to become a demon in an instant, and even disturb the heavenly realm, this thing is unscientific...... Probably possessed by the strange mist that jumped out of the space-time gate and once passed through his body, that mist is the real Demon Lord!

The king of the realm said that sooner or later he would be targeted by the "Void Demon Lord", but why did the plot suddenly take a big turn without warning? Why did I fall into the hands of the demon lord's minions? Does the other party want to kill him? But looking at his expression, he doesn't seem to have much malice......

His heart was worried, and his face naturally showed doubts and fear. The disciple of the demon lord didn't play dumb riddles, and directly explained: "I sent Zhang Bin to kill the mortal Buddha and Tao to cut off the foundation of the heavens, Zhang Bin was afraid of your bad things, and begged me to accept it, I asked you for the reason, it turned out to be a disciple of Linwu Dongtian......"

Wei Wencheng said in his heart that I won't harm you, I have already told Wei Yuansong well, Zhang Bin, why don't you talk to your companions before you act?!He estimated that Zhang Bin's ability was limited, and he found that he couldn't even look at the demon mirror to show his true appearance, so he didn't dare to act rashly, and wanted to persuade himself to turn his back on the Buddha, but he was scolded back, so he invited the master to come......

No, no, it's not important, what matters is -- was Dare to Love Wei Yuansong also used by Zhang Bin? Is that guy's purpose not to reform religion, but to completely eliminate the inheritance of Buddhism and Taoism in Middle-earth?

I heard the demon master disciple say again: "And the spell you cast is actually the Taoist Book of Heaven - where is the Book of Heaven?"

Wei Wencheng patted his sleeve: "It's not in me, it's hidden somewhere else." The immortal chief can let go of the prince and lead the king to fetch the ......"

The disciple of the demon lord smiled and said: "My master regards the heavens as if they were grass, so why do you need the Book of Heaven? And the so-called Book of Heaven, the magic of the Dao Ear, if it is a treasure, why didn't the Emperor of Heaven search it strictly, and actually made Yuan Gong take it away?" If that thing is really a Taoist treasure, with the power of the gods, how could it be stolen by a little Yuan Gong, and it can't be retrieved for so long?

Wei Wencheng said this in his heart, it makes sense...... Dare to love, I arch like a treasure, in fact, I guess it is just an enlightenment reading for Taoist teaching...... The Book of Heaven cannot be scattered in the mortal world, but after all, it is only a textbook for the lower grades, and there is no need to send great gods and immortals to pursue it for it, so Yuan Gong has been at large for so many years...... The hell I've been deceived!

I heard the disciple of the demon lord say again: "The book of heaven is like sand, the way of heaven is like a tile, only the law of my teacher, the creation of heaven and earth, the truth of this world, if you follow the pearl - junior brother, are you willing to abandon the side door and return to my right path?"

Wei Wencheng hurriedly asked, "What is the truth?"

"In heaven and on earth, all laws are empty, and there is no karma, it is not cause and effect, and there is no false creation. Outside the world, there is no living world, the real is not false, there is no beginning and no end, only the false is destroyed, the truth can be seen, only this world is destroyed, and there is no life. ”

"What does it mean to be lifeless?" Wei Wencheng didn't understand, "Life is death?"

"Neither life nor death, neither life nor death, return to nature, and live with heaven and earth. ”

Wei Wencheng said, "What are you talking about?" I don't understand it at all...... Can you make that clearer?

The other party's white eyebrows frowned slightly, thought about it carefully, and said: "I thought you were a person who could understand, but unfortunately you were ignorant...... If you can take refuge, you can lead you to see the demon lord, and you can listen to the avenue. ”

Wei Wencheng spread his hands: "If you don't convert, will you kill me?"

The disciple of the demon lord smiled and said that I am not in a hurry to kill you, I can allow you to think about it for a while - "The three souls of you are taken by me, and the mortal body is already a shell of ignorance, so I can't harm Zhang Bin's ......"

The more Wei Wencheng listened, the more shocked he became. It turned out that it was not his physical body that was in the bondage, but only the three souls. The so-called "three souls and seven spirits", the three souls are the heavenly soul, the earth soul, and the human soul, if according to the later Freud, it is equal to the id, ego and superego, to put it bluntly, refers to a person's autonomous consciousness;

Now Wei Wencheng's body should have become an idiot - not a vegetative person, he can still move - it is estimated that in this situation, no one will send him to the Three Sects Debate Competition, and even if he is sent, he can only sit on the side and smirk, unable to express any opinions, so the Demon Lord disciple said: "I can't harm Zhang Bin's affairs." ”

The disciple of the demon lord also said: "You are in my world, try to become enlightened, if you know that all the laws are false, this world is false, only by destroying the false can you see the truth, and if you abandon life, you can not die, and I am willing to return to the Dharma, and I will save myself." As he spoke, his head flickered, and he disappeared without a trace.

Wei Wencheng's three souls were trapped in this thing like a huge dry well, he wasn't too worried at first, he tried to use the flying technique on the heavenly book, trying to escape, but no matter how he condensed his mind, he was always distracted, difficult to calm down, no matter how he recited the spell, it had no effect. Running to the wall of the "well" and reaching out to touch it, it is so slippery and greasy that people get goosebumps all over their bodies, and it is even more difficult to climb.

He stumbled and sat down, reciting Buddhist scriptures, and it didn't matter what he did, and the inexplicable scriptures were always interrupted by strange thoughts that popped into his mind, and it was always difficult to finish them.

It wasn't until he tried every method he could think of, but couldn't get out of prison - not even a glimmer of light could be seen - that Wei Wencheng panicked. Fortunately, he remembered that there was still a last straw, so he immediately closed his eyes and silently recited the name of "King of the World" in his heart......

I read it several times, but there was no response, so I simply shouted out loudly, but I only heard the lingering sound...... Wei Wencheng couldn't help but curse in his heart, that guy is really unreliable! He said "possibly" to save me, is it really just "possible"?

He was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, when suddenly the wind sounded behind his head, and when he turned his head to look, he saw a colorful tiger emerging from there, raised his claws, and threw him to the ground. Then he opened his bloody mouth, revealing his sharp teeth, and with a "click", he gnawed off Wei Wencheng's half-pulled head......

Wei Wencheng is not dead...... In fact, this is only his three souls, and he will not be bitten to death by a tiger at all, although he is extremely frightened and in pain, his consciousness remains awake. In this state of sobriety, he was gnawed clean from head to toe by the fierce tiger, one bite at a time, leaving behind some bloodshot and fleshy bones. The tiger didn't seem to have eaten it, and kept licking and licking the bones in his hand, as if he wanted to lick every bit of muscle with the barb on his tongue, and then gnawed open one end to suck the bone marrow......

I don't know how long later, after experiencing unprecedented pain in the world - if it was really the physical body here, it would have hung up a long time ago, there was no consciousness, and there would be no more pain from chewing bones - Wei Wencheng was only left with a pile of bones and slag. But this pile of bones and scum can not only continue to feel their own existence, feel the boundless pain, and even seem to be able to see how they were eaten by tigers little by little as if from the perspective of God. Finally, the tiger licked his lips unsatisfied, turned around, and disappeared into the wall of the "well" in a few steps.

The tiger had just disappeared, and Wei Wencheng had returned to its original state, his flesh and bones were complete, and his body was no longer painful, even the monk's robe and shoes were intact.

He didn't dare to think about the scene just now, and he couldn't help but continue to silently recite the name of the "King of the Realm" in his heart - still no response. Immediately there was a strange sound behind him, and he said to himself, "Is there another tiger coming to eat me?" Hurriedly turned around, but saw a naked beauty leaning on the wall of the "well" with her limbs spread out, her skin extremely clean, her flesh extremely well-proportioned, and her expression extremely soft...... And those facial features are a bit like the carp essence in Taihu Lake!

The woman pounced on her. Wei Wenwei is not a person with a strong lust, but for some reason, it was difficult to resist the other party's teasing, and a long indescribable experience began...... But just as he was full of lust and passion, and he had already entered the port, suddenly the beauty in front of him was aging rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then the skin and flesh began to decay, until they became a pair of bones......

Suddenly falling from the peak of happiness to the bottom of disgusting, Wei Wencheng felt that he was going crazy. He understood that this was an illusion performed by the disciple of the Demon Master, in order to make himself "enlightened"β€”all laws are false, and this world is false. But he said in his heart, what is the difference between this and the legendary methods of Buddhism and Taoism to test disciples?

Of course, the legendary stories are not so realistic, whether they are tigers or beautiful women...... Because the target is not the physical body, but the three souls, all kinds of feelings go straight to the heart, even Wei Wencheng, who boasts that his bones are quite hard and his will is quite firm, wants to simply hit his head to death. It's a pity that the soul can't be killed, and when you go up on your head, the "well" wall is slippery and greasy, and it is soft and weak.

Then there was a burning fire, a huge wave without a top, a hundred and ten axes and saws to cut its body, and thousands of insects and ants to bite its body...... There was even a familiar old monk who came out, with a weird smile and a stinky saliva, and "used" Wei Wencheng...... Wei Wencheng couldn't help but shout in his heart: "I'll obey, I'll obey, I'm willing to take refuge in the Demon Lord, just beg not to suffer this kind of pain again!" But there was no response, even the Demon Lord's disciple seemed to have set up a series of mechanisms, and after causing a series of illusions, he completely forgot about Wei Wencheng......

After each unbearable experience, Wei Wencheng's three souls will return to their original state, and their faces will not change, and their qi will not grow, leaving him two or three minutes to reminisce...... He didn't know when this torture would end, but he said in his heart that even the eighteen layers of hell were nothing more than that, right? Who is really guilty of the most evil crimes, and will go through all the layers of hell like himself?

There was a sound in the back of his head, this time he didn't look back, what he liked, although I didn't even have a chance to be completely numb, at least I could be a little numb...... But this time, nothing pounced on it, and no bastard pounced on him to "use" him, but a familiar voice sounded behind him: "Do you want me to save you?"

Wei Wencheng turned his head suddenly, and couldn't help but exchange with tears: "Why did you come?!"

It was not someone else standing behind him, it was the "King of the Realm".

I saw that the "King of the Realm" smiled faintly: "I'm sorry, I'm stumbling up a little bit, I'm a step late......"

Wei Wencheng shouted, "Before saving me, do you have the ability to erase my memories during this time?!"

"It's not difficult, you go out with me first. ”

"Wait," Wei Wencheng suddenly thought of something, and stretched out his hand to wave it, "Are you true or false? Are you really my psychiatric doctor?" He always felt that the expression of this "realm king" seemed to be slightly different from what he had seen before.

The other party was stunned for a moment: "What kind of psychiatric doctor?"

"Sure enough, it's fake," Wei Wencheng smiled bitterly, "What kind of torture is this, I want to take refuge in the Void Demon Lord, or let me go quickly, please, please!" As he spoke, he fell to his knees with a plop and kowtowed to the other party.

The fake "King of the Realm" snorted: "Still don't look like it?" Seeing that his appearance changed instantly, he became a short baby-faced man with short hair and a monk's robe, and then stretched out his hands to support Wei Wencheng: "Donor, don't panic, although I am not the king of the realm, but I am his friend, you can call me a doctor...... I'm really here to save you, you don't have to take refuge in any demon lord. ”

"So where is the King of the Realm? Why didn't he come?"

The other party snorted: "He...... He's lost again......"
