13 | True and false ends, spiritual peach is not peach
The demon collected his mood and began to think about cultivation again. The road of cultivation is bumpy, and the place of the Dharma and wealth is very important, and for himself, except for a ghost record that was given by someone, there is almost nothing, and it will not be easy to go all the way.
The top priority now is to find a book of exercises that tell you how to increase your cultivation speed, study it carefully, and break through as soon as possible. But the world is so big, it's not easy to find a book of exercises that suits you.
The demon can't help but worry about it, it's not to kill people and sell goods, and it's impractical to search the world, if only Mengzezong had a secret book about the cultivation of ghosts, but it's a pity that the disciples of Mengzezong don't practice ghosts, so naturally there will be no relevant exercise books. If you can sneak into the Ghost Valley, it seems to be a good way to find one or two exercises that are suitable for your own cultivation and then find a chance to leave, but Pu Jia said before that the only way for those who enter the Ghost Valley to get out of there is to die. Although he has looked down on life and death, he has only seen through the life and death of others after all, and he still has a lot of things that he has not had time to complete, how can he die casually?
Therefore, the matter of infiltrating the ghost valley and stealing the teacher still needs to be considered in the long run, but this does not mean that this matter is not feasible. The demon faintly felt that this trip to Jiangzhou would involve him in the Ghost Valley, who said it well, there would be no opportunity in it?
At nightfall, a few people flew to a nearby town, a gloomy figure in the vast night is wearing the stars and the moon, he is stepping on the wings of the paper kite, wearing the starlight, the eyebrows are stained with moonlight, a little stunned, and a little joy that can not be hidden.
"Master Pujia, I can be regarded as looking forward to you." In the moonlight, Li Xuantian's vacant teeth were like bottomless black holes, constantly revealing a bit of desolation. 、
"Master Li, what's going on?" Pu Jia was surprised.
Li Xuantian wiped a handful of tears and said: "The news of the birth of the spirit peach must have been heard by the head of Pujia. ”
"Yes, that's what I'm here for." Pu Jia said bluntly.
"Maybe it's the favor of God, that spirit peach just appeared in my Vientiane Gate, I thought it was a great thing, who would have thought that it was a great disaster, so that my Vientiane Gate was slaughtered." Li Xuantian's tone was full of resentment and sadness.
"If what I expected is right, many of the fellow Daoists of the Lingxiao Sect, Fusang Temple, and Jishitang are all in Jiangzhou City at this moment, could they just watch the Wanxiang Gate suffer this catastrophe and stand by and watch?"
"Who else will slaughter my Vientiane Gate!" Li Xuantian sighed sadly and angrily, "If I hadn't escaped with my life driving the secret technique, I'm afraid even I would have lost my life at the hands of Liu Daoren." ”
Li Xuantian said as he rolled up his sleeves, revealing the wound on his arm.
"Five-element talisman?" Pu Jia's face was solemn.
"Yes, it's the Five Elements Talisman." Li Xuantian put down his sleeves, "I was trapped by the master of Fusang Temple with Buddhism, Liu Wenren took the opportunity to beat me seriously with the Five Elements Talisman, but I could only use the soul bell to protect myself, and I exhausted my spiritual power to find a chance to escape with this paper kite magic weapon." ”
"You're going to make the decision for me, Master Pujia."
"If this is the case, my Mengze Sect will definitely make a move, and Master Li will go back with me and find them to reason face to face." Pu Jia Road.
"Master Pujia, it's not that I don't want to go with you, it's just that I'm seriously injured now, and going back will drag you back." Li Xuantian sighed lightly and continued, "But I have also thought clearly, the spirit peach has nothing to do with me, and I am willing to give up the competition for the spirit peach." ”
"Listening to the meaning of Master Li's words, don't you let me participate in the competition for spirit peach?" Pu Jia asked.
"Now, I am already a sinner of the Vientiane Sect, even if I win the spirit peach, I will not be able to rise to the heavens, and go to the heavenly interface to meet the ancestors of the sect, but the head of the Pujia sect is different, young and promising, and there is no one more suitable to have this spirit peach than you." Li Xuantian looked at the four demons who were following behind Pu Jia, and continued, "Besides, Brother Pu Jia still has so many powerful assistants, unlike me, who is just alone. ”
"Master Li is reasonable, let's rush to Jiangzhou City to avenge you." Pu Jia Road.
Li Xuantian was so moved that he almost cried again, he choked up and said, "He didn't come back with you, I guess he must have suffered an accident." ”
"I'm sorry, he was killed by Sang-ryu." Pu Jia Road.
Li Xuantian sighed: "That's it, in fact, I had a premonition, and he said that something happened to him, but he didn't want to believe it." In this way, there is no hope, there is no thought, there is no thought, but it is pure......"
Li Xuantian rode the paper kite lonely and left, Pu Jia condensed his eyebrows and thought for a moment, and said softly: "Do you believe what he said?" ”
The Chen sisters were confused, and Mu Yu and the demon shook their heads almost at the same time.
"Master, I can't even say a word." Mu Yu didn't have the slightest affection for Vientiane Gate, and said without hesitation.
"Half credible, half untrustworthy, I think." The demon said, "At least the spirit peach is definitely not in his hands now." ”、
Pu Jia didn't say no, just pondered silently for a moment, and then said: "Mu Yu, you take Siruo and Sixuan to follow Li Xuantian, and I will go to Vientiane Gate with the demon, no matter ......"
Before Pu Jia finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mu Yu: "Master doesn't agree, the demon must follow me." ”
The demon shrugged his shoulders and said to Pu Jia, "Pu Jia, you go and come back quickly, I will use the ghost insect technique to contact you." ”
Pu Jia groaned: "It's okay, you must be careful, you must not be discovered by Li Xuantian." ”
"Don't worry, there is no accident with the master." Mu Yu patted his chest and reassured.
"Come on, you're the leader of the flower house." The demon muttered in a low voice.
Fortunately, the voice was small enough that Mu Yu didn't hear it.
Pu Jia continued to fly in the direction of Jiangzhou City alone, and the demon twisted a trick, and a flying insect formed by the condensation of black mist followed, landing in Pu Jia's collar. Mu Yu performed the stealth technique to ensure that the four of them were under the shroud of the spell, and then took the lead to track down Li Xuantian's traces.
An hour later, several people finally caught up with Li Xuantian.
I saw that this former majestic and unangry head of Vientiane Gate is now leaning on top of the paper kite, like a dying old man.
Mu Yu originally planned to use the stealth to tease him, but was stopped by the demon.
"Little incense, that's the length of the faction, but it's not as easy to tease as Bird Yan." The demon lowered his voice and said, "Beware of self-defeating. ”
Mu Yu reluctantly said okay, but in his heart he still wanted to tease Li Xuantian to avenge his revenge for seeing death a few months ago.
Chen Siruo noticed Mu Yu's sullenness, so she increased her speed, flew to Mu Yu's side, stepped forward and said softly: "If Brother Mu Yu really wants to play tricks on Master Li, I have an idea." ”
When Mu Yu heard this, he immediately became interested, he glanced at the demon demon, and after confirming that the other party was not listening, he asked in a low voice, "What method?" ”
Chen Siruo directly put his lips on Mu Yu's ear and whispered something.
Mu Yu frowned and said, "Is this really okay?" ”
"Of course." Chen Siruo nodded seriously, "If it is discovered by the demon girl, you can say that it is my attention, and let her blame me." ”
Seeing that Mu Yu was still a little hesitant, she directly took his hand and encouraged: "Brother Mu Yu rest assured, he will definitely not be discovered." ”
Mu Yu nodded suspiciously, and the corners of Chen Siruo's mouth showed a nonchalant smile, and he took out a small jade bottle from his arms.
"What is this?" Mu Yu asked.
"This is the elixir I found in a deserted immortal cultivator's mansion in Daze, called Remembrance Linglu. After the immortal cultivator takes it, he will lose the memory of an hour, even a strong person like Master Li will not be spared. Chen Siruo said.
"If we can get Li Xuantian to drink this bottle of Yiling Dew, will we be able to do anything to him in the next hour?"
"That's true."
"But the question is, how are we going to get him to drink this elixir?"
"Instead of trying to find a way to get him to drink the elixir on his own initiative, it's better to find a way to get him to open his mouth." Chen Siruo said while gesturing a watering action, "Our biggest dependence is that he can't see us, as long as we can make him open his mouth, we can pour the medicine into his mouth." ”
"I have an idea." Mu Yu said, "It's just that I'm worried that the demon won't agree." ”
"Then we can give the demon a drop first, the power of a little potion is not very strong, it will probably make her fall asleep for a while, and when she wakes up, we have already done everything." Chen Siruo said.
"Is this Remembrance Dew really harmless to the body?" Mu Yu still hesitated, "Don't forget it, anyway, we have been following him, there will always be a chance." ”
Chen Siruo hurriedly said: "It really won't hurt the body, otherwise I won't let Sixuan drink." ”
"Do you want to drink Sixuan too?" Mu Yu wondered.
"This is natural, if she is awake, she will definitely not agree to me going to the danger with Brother Mu Yu." Chen Siruo nodded.
Mu Yu hesitated, finally nodded, and said, "Then feed each of them a small drop, I still want the demon to wake up as soon as possible and teach Li Xuantian a lesson with me." ”
"It's nature." Chen Siruo was so excited that her fingers were trembling slightly.
Chen Siruo took out two pieces of dim sum, dripped a small drop of liquid medicine on each piece of dim sum, and then handed them to the demon and Chen Sixuan respectively. The demon ate it in one bite without thinking about it, but Chen Sixuan ate it in small bites.
After a while, the two of them began to stagger, Mu Yu and Chen Siruo supported one by one, led them to the ground, and carefully hid them in a tree hole.
Mu Yu laid down the stealth formation, and took Chen Siruo to catch up with Li Xuantian again.
Chen Siruo held the bottle, hid his breath, and flew beside Li Xuantian, ready to pour Yi Linglu into the other party's mouth at any time, while Mu Yu twisted a trick and used countless peach petals to write a line of words on Li Xuantian's inevitable path: I opened the road of this sky, and I planted the tree of clouds.
The petals of each peach blossom are glowed with a hazy pale pink halo, which stands out in the endless night.
Sure enough, Li Xuantian was furious when he saw this line of words, he looked around, but he didn't find any trace of anyone, so he yelled angrily: "Big ......"
Before the bold word was shouted, it was blocked by a cold bottle mouth, and a cool and sweet liquid poured into his mouth, Li Xuantian hurriedly gritted his teeth and wanted to block more liquid, but earlier, several teeth were jumped by the spirit peach, and at this moment, it was like a broken window, leaking air everywhere, and the unknown liquid was swallowed into his stomach without leaking.
"Bold ......" This time, Li Xuantian finished the word bold, but his breath became weaker and weaker, and his consciousness became more and more blurred.
His eyelids were heavy as if they had been filled with lead, and when he opened his eyes again, there was no trace of expression in his pupils, and the whole person was like a shell that had lost his soul.
"That's it." Chen Siruo took a deep breath and grinned at Mu Yu. Mu Yu was also very proud, twisted the magic trick, condensed the peach blossoms into ropes, and tied Li Xuantian up.
Pu Jia hurried alone, and the speed was obviously much faster. It was originally a two-day journey, but he arrived in Jiangzhou City in less than half a day.
The three of them have been studying the spirit peach for more than a day, but there is no progress at all, the three of them want to keep the spirit peach themselves, in order to prevent unnecessary disputes, and for the sake of fairness, several people decided to choose the person who keeps the spirit peach by arguing about the Tao. And the topic of their argument is: spiritual peach is not peach.
"The peach is the sunshine, the rain nourishes, and the peach tree is the thing that is nurtured, and the spirit peach is the condensation of the feathered aura between heaven and earth, and the spirit peach is naturally not a peach." Liu asked the first questioner.
"But the spirit peach is also born on the tree, and how do you know that the peach grows and will not absorb the aura between heaven and earth?" Hua Tang asked rhetorically, "So in my opinion, the reason why the spirit peach is not a peach is because of the effect of the spirit peach." ”
"Spirit peaches can help people become immortals, but peaches cannot, so spirit peaches are not peaches." Hua Tang smiled and continued, "Master Desire, what do you think? ”
Zen Master Sixiang just smiled and didn't say a word.
Hua Tang looked at Liu Daoren, who looked displeased, and then reached out to take the spirit peach with a smile: "Since both of you have no objection, this spirit peach will be handed over to me for safekeeping." ”
At this moment, Zen Master Sixiang raised his hand to stop him: "The Buddha is merciful, the spirit peach helps people to become immortals, not in the spirit peach itself, but in the feather aura contained in it, so it cannot be used as a judge." In my opinion, spiritual peaches and peaches can be both peaches and sentient beings, and if they are sentient beings, they are peaches and not peaches. ”
"What do you mean by this?" Hua Tang asked suspiciously.
The reason why it is called the spirit peach is because it has the same skin as the peach in the earthly world, and the Buddha said that there should be no self, no one, no sentient beings, and no longevity, which is to warn us to see the essence of all things through the skin. It can be called a spirit peach, you can also be a spirit peach, and everything in heaven and earth can be called a spirit peach. Therefore, spiritual peaches are not peaches, and sentient beings are not peaches. ”
