Chapter 339: Cause and Effect, Faith

The big commotion tonight was really something Xiao Cong didn't expect, he didn't expect that Qi dumb man would be so difficult, nor did he expect Yin Nuo to be so able to fight, let alone that in the end, he could make trouble all over the city, and in order to get out smoothly, he had to throw away another stone carving.

Xiao Fengzhe's relics are not many, but in just a few days, he has thrown away as many as four pieces, and it hurts his mother to think about it!

"Forget it, those who achieve great things are not informal, so be it. He took a sip and comforted himself.

Yin Nuo continued to be unconscious, Hongxiang was still thousands of miles away, on both sides, he seemed to be perfunctory, after a little weighing, he still felt that Hongxiang's side was more dangerous, after all, it was so close to the Valley of Forgotten Life, and he didn't expect to make such a big movement at first, let alone delay for such a long time, now he suddenly felt that the dose of the drug given to Hongxiang before seemed to be a little smaller, it was estimated that it would not be long before that guy would wake up, if he stayed honestly in the Hidden Shadow Hidden Rest Array, it would be fine, Xiao Cong is now laying out the Hidden Shadow Hiding Array, even the peerless master who crossed the river realm can not easily find it, but will that guy obediently stay in the Hidden Shadow Hidden Array?

Xiao Cong shook his head and sighed, and couldn't help but scold his mother.

He is now angry and rude, and he is rude when he places Yin Nuo, in his opinion, everything tonight is caused by Yin Nuo, if it weren't for Yin Nuo's boasting and boasting, he would not take tonight's things lightly, he put most of the treasure on Yin Nuo, I didn't expect this strong man who had lived for three hundred years to cross the river to be so unreliable!

As for Hongxiang, not to mention, although this guy has always sneered at Yin Nuo, Xiao Cong can see that in fact, the little guy does have some closeness to Yin Nuo, and he is convinced that Yin Nuo has lived in the Valley of Forgotten Life for hundreds of years and knows everything about North Street, Xiao Cong is now not afraid that Hongxiang will not see them after waking up and go to North Street to find him, what he is afraid of is that this guy will be poor and unsuspecting outside after waking up, and maybe he will be arrested when he stretches his waist!

After arranging Yin Nuo, Xiao Cong did not hesitate, and used his full strength to perform the spirit retreat, and walked towards the wilderness outside the Valley of Forgotten Life.

When Xiao Cong rushed back to the wilderness outside the Valley of Forgotten Life, he couldn't see his five fingers, it was the darkest time, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the sky was about to be bright, a journey of more than a thousand miles, he rushed wildly, it only took a little more than an hour and a half, it was not a miracle, but he had indeed done his best, even if he had always looked down on swallowing pills to recover his strength, but after arriving, he couldn't help but swallow a Awakening Cypress Pill, it seems that the special situation really needs special treatment.

There was no trace of a fight on this side of the field, and there was not even a trace of anyone, seeing this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and found the hidden shadow hiding array he had arranged a few hours ago, and entered it, only to find that Hongxiang was still sleeping on the ground, and now his hanging heart was finally put down.

He squatted down, put his right hand on Hongxiang's arm lying on his side and facing up, shook it gently, and called:

"Hongxiang, wake up, wake up. ”

Without shaking it twice, Hongxiang woke up, he turned over, rubbed his eyes that had just woken up, opened his mouth and yawned, and said like a dream:

"Brother, you're back, why did you go for so long......"

Xiao Cong smiled lightly,

"Get up first, if you want to listen, I'll talk to you later. ”

Hongxiang was helped up by Xiao Cong, with a surprised expression,

"Brother, not long ago there was a god in the sky, did you see it? ”

The corners of Xiao Cong's mouth were a few points higher, and Hong Xiang looked at it, his face was full of excitement for a moment, and he exclaimed:

"You can't have done that!"

Xiao Cong stretched out his hand to cover Hongxiang's mouth, made a silent gesture, and said in a low voice:

"It's not good to stay here, let's go over there. ”

Then, without saying anything, his right hand swept out lightly, and then flipped over, and a stone fell to the ground quietly, and the two disappeared from the spot in an instant.

When they returned to the valley boulder again, it was not yet dawn, Xiao Cong set up the tent, but did not regenerate the bonfire, the two of them got into the tent, and leaned on the night pearl that was set on the bronze shelf to make it light.

Hongxiang was impatient for a long time, just sat down cross-legged and stuck to Xiao Cong to tell him what happened, about this, Xiao Cong did not shy away from it, and talked about it all, Hongxiang's eyes were bright, his small mouth was slightly open, and he was stunned when he heard it.

"Tonight can be regarded as a dangerous situation, thanks to the goods on the shelf, otherwise, even if Yin Nuo successfully carried down the secret technique of Qi Dumb and attracted so many star-picking powerhouses, we would have to die there in the end, this Yin Nuo, I didn't find out the matter in advance, I knew that this Qi Dumb was so difficult, and the master wouldn't provoke him tonight!" Xiao Cong said hatefully.

Hongxiang was stunned, and persuaded slowly,

"Brother, don't blame Yin Nuo too much, he didn't mean it, besides, he made a lot of effort tonight, there is no credit and hard work, even if there is something wrong, but it can always be offset by the merits, this knife tip turns upside down, how can there be no ups and downs, it's okay. ”

Xiao Cong shook his head,

"I don't blame him, I just think that if you suffer a loss, you have to learn a long lesson, and you can't be so hasty in the future, fortunately I didn't take you there, otherwise, it would definitely be more troublesome, this point, Young Master Ben is still prescient. ”

Hongxiang pouted and said dissatisfied:

"What's the trouble with me, I can't empathize with this miracle up close, do you know if I lost a lot this time!"

"Why don't you have trouble, at least it will cost me a stone carving!"

Hongxiang laughed a few times and teased:

"What's wrong with my brother tonight, why doesn't my brain have the same light as before, it really costs you two stone carvings to take me and Yin Nuo from North Street at the same time, but you didn't use the stone carvings when you brought me here from outside the Valley of Forgotten Life?

Xiao Cong was speechless for a while, held back for a long time, and popped out of the sentence,

"I have to take care of you with me, and I can't share that heart, so it's still the wisest choice to leave you there!"

Hongxiang, who couldn't see through it, laughed twice, and then diverted the topic,

"What happened to the dumb man?"

"How do I know? I guess it's okay, I've been thinking about a question since I left North Street, how did Qi Dum summon the White Buddha Vajra Sadha, and now I have a little guess. ”

"What speculation?" Hongxiang interjected, as if he was afraid that Xiao Cong would not tell him.

Xiao Cong thought for a moment and said intermittently:

"If I ...... Guess no...... If it's wrong, it could be a spiritual ...... Soul and ...... Causally. ”

Hongxiang was taken aback when he heard this, and said with a preoccupation:

"Brother, don't be funny, poisonous insects have no soul and cause and effect. ”

Xiao Cong shook his head, his eyes were heavy,

"Don't you know that Buddhism believes that all things are animistic and all beings are equal? ”

"But ......"

Xiao Cong didn't seem to hear Hongxiang's hesitation, and continued to think thoughtfully:

"Actually, I also believe in the equality of all animistic beings, but, in my opinion, the soul and cause and effect of those poisonous insects cannot support the miracle of the manifestation of a dead White Buddha Vajra, but since this matter has appeared, there must be an explanation. ”

Hongxiang was stunned and waited for Xiao Congliang with a pair of black and white eyes open, only to hear the latter say slowly:

"That's not the soul and cause and effect of poisonous insects, but it belongs to man!"

After Xiao Cong said this, after a long while, Hongxiang carefully exhaled a breath, rubbed his body vigorously, frowned and prayed:

"Brother, don't say it again, besides, I don't have goosebumps, and the storytellers in the teahouse don't tell you stories like this. ”

"You don't believe me?" Xiao Cong's tone was gentle, but it still sounded questioning.

Hongxiang rubbed his arms, his head shook like a rattle,

"It's not that I don't believe what my brother said, but I feel a little unacceptable, you think, grafting people's souls and cause and effect on a group of spider centipedes, how disgusting and infiltrating, this is not only inhumane, this is simply perverted!"

Xiao Cong smiled slightly,

"The world is so big, there are more strange things than this, but you are not deeply involved in the world, and you have seen and heard too little, and when you know more, you will find that these are not enough, or I will tell you here first, warm up?"

"You can pull it down!"

Hongxiang was "aggressive", pulling his neck out like a puppy, and almost bit Xiao Cong twice again.

"Look at the person who scared you, I still have been with me Xiao Cong for so long. ”

After complaining, Xiao Cong's eyes moved up, fell into reverie again, and began to talk to himself,

"Do you know? This is a very important question, Buddhism is good, it should not do such a thing that tramples on the common people and contempts the way of heaven, if it is not someone who has studied this aspect, then from another point of view, the so-called Western Elysium, is not a pure land, I don't know the hidden secrets, but I always feel that there must be some ulterior secrets, the White Buddha, the Bodhi Holy Ancestor, the Ancient Buddha of Jingtai, the Seventy-two Bodhisattvas of the Heavens, the Venerable Darulai, Jialan, Maitreya, Arhats, Vajra, there are no fewer gods on their side than here, but there are far fewer ugly things than here, and it is rare to hear about the deception of others, two-faced and three-stabbed, just take last night's Confession Pursu, Qi dumb can summon it, I am afraid that in addition to strength, there is no need to pay anything, he is really trying his best to help his followers who are devout and faithful, even if he dies, he still has the will to die, even if there is only the will of immortality, he must persevere to the end the grand wish of Pudu sentient beings, you say, is there really such a selfless and fearless god in this world? ”

After saying this, Xiao Cong began to be silent, Hongxiang thought for a while, and said seriously:

"Everything is out of chaos, everything needs to be balanced, and I don't believe they can do it that clean. ”

Xiao Cong smiled in surprise when he heard this,

"Yo, I didn't expect that in your mouth, you could burst out such golden sentences, and you were taught. ”

Hongxiang rolled his eyes widely, and said angrily:

"Are you laughing at me?

Xiao Cong smiled, his state seemed so pleasant and relaxed, he shook his head, as pure as a child:

"I don't know. ”

Hongxiang scoffed,

"Qi, why don't you know it now? Don't you always believe in the theory of the balance of cause and effect? Brother, were you frightened by the Confessional Lady Sahe, I said that something was wrong with you tonight, so it was. ”

Xiao Cong straightened his eyebrows and flirted lightly, his crooked eyes seemed to be overflowing, and he said with interest:

"What? Provoke me? You're still too tender, save it. ”

Hongxiang pouted and snorted heavily, and after a while, he raised his head and asked:

"Hey, that's not right, brother, didn't you just say that Qi dumb people can attract the goddess, and you don't have to pay anything except strength? But why did it involve the soul and cause and effect just now? This is a bit contradictory. ”

Xiao Cong sighed faintly and replied calmly:

"These are two different things, and they can't be confused. ”

"Why can't it be confused, according to what you just said, Qi Dumb clearly summoned the Confession Po Sahe through the soul and cause and effect of the poisonous insect!"

Xiao Cong blew out a light breath again, his eyes deepened and deepened, and he said slowly:

"I didn't want to tell you, since you asked, then I'll talk to you about this question tonight, before, I had discussed a question with Xingliuyun shallowly, a question about faith, at that time I said that faith is just a spiritual support, is an excellent thing, no need to pay anything, there will be no loss, faith can not be used by living beings, but it will affect the Tao, and what everyone expects is the Tao, which will bring some unexpected benefits to believers and believers, but tonight I suddenly thought that faith may also need to pay something, that is cause and effect, as for the soul, that is the medium of cause and effect。 ”

"But what does this have to do with Qi Dumb Summoning the Confession Goddess?" Hongxiang asked timidly.

"You will know when I finish speaking. ”

Xiao Cong paused, and then said:

"Buddhism believes in the theory of cause and effect, because this doctrine was first put forward by them, and it was later cited by the science of immortal martial arts, but I have read a lot of books, but I have never seen a very clever explanation of this in any Xianwu classics, so Xianwu cultivators do not understand the theory of cause and effect, but why do Buddhists believe in the theory of cause and effect so much? In our consciousness, cause and effect is always a confusing and mysterious existence, but in the consciousness of monks, this may not be the case, because cause and effect can be used by them, just like we use all kinds of heaven and earth to derive qi. ”

"But brother, I still don't understand. Hongxiang frowned, and the distress was all written on his face.

Xiao Cong raised his hand and gently rubbed his swollen forehead, looked tired, and sighed:

"I don't know how to explain it any further, but let me think about it. ”

The night breeze blows in the valley, the rustle of the branches and leaves is very light and very light into the tent, the atmosphere in the tent is as quiet and safe as the outside of the tent, the white soft light of the night pearl makes everything look more beautiful, Hongxiang hugging his legs and curling up, Xiao Cong supports his forehead with his hands, both of them are motionless, only the light flowing in his eyes is still announcing that they are living creatures.

After a good while, Hongxiang removed his chin from his knee and asked softly:

"Brother, have you figured it out?"

Xiao Cong took his hand away from his forehead, faced Hongxiang, and shook his head.

"I did think about it, I don't know if my brother wants to hear it. Hongxiang's face was calm, and he looked so well-behaved.

Xiao Cong smiled,

"Let's hear it. ”

Hongxiang flattened his mouth and said with a serious face:

"My brother said that the miracle of Confession Sara was manifested because of his immortal will to wander in the world, and he also said that his family can use cause and effect, I think these are very reasonable, and thinking about it along these lines, Qi Dumb may have really used these to summon the miracle of Confession Sarha, but my brother forgot a detail. ”

"Oh? What details. Xiao Cong frowned slightly.

Yin Nuo told his brother that he hadn't heard of the fact that the Qi mute family had no descendants before, but his brother really hadn't seen anyone else since he went there, so he could explain why Qi mute was able to use the soul and cause and effect of the poisonous insects. ”

Xiao Cong shook his head and smiled bitterly,

"My brother still doesn't understand, you can be more detailed. ”

Hongxiang took a deep breath and said as if he had plucked up great courage:

"Qi Mut must have nurtured a lot of people in his family before, and he preached to these people, brainwashed them into followers of Confession Pursa, and finally fed them to those poisons that were given to him, so that there was cause and effect between the two, and this cause and effect affected their belief in Confession Bodhisattva, and Qi Dumb only used secret methods to hook cause and effect, so that the miracle of Confession Bodhisattva Sarha could be manifested, and even said that he himself was a devout follower of Confession Bodhisattva. ”

When Xiao Cong heard this, he thought seriously for a while, and asked:

"If he is a faithful follower of the Buddha Saha, how could he do such a thing that is contrary to human morality? Besides, wouldn't it be more convenient and trouble-free to directly use the secret method to hook people's cause and effect?"

Hongxiang smiled coldly,

"Brother is not confused, I just said that the monks of the Western Elysium are not necessarily so clean, why would the Qi mute who believes in the Buddha Saha do such a contrary thing, it depends on what the Buddhism he has learned teaches him, as for why he doesn't directly use the secret method to hook people's cause and effect, brother, are you sure that what Qi mute drove last night was ordinary poison?"

Xiao Cong seemed to have an understanding and muttered:

"What you said is not unreasonable, the world is so big, there are no wonders, the Great Brahman-like poison is not an ordinary secret art, it should not be so easily tampered with and simplified, the initiator should just intercept one of the paragraphs to extend, and use special poisons to assist and make up for the shortcomings, as for the secret method of summoning the Buddha Saha, it is obtained by accident, because the legend, the Great Brahman-like poison is created by the White Buddha, and there is a legend that the White Buddha is a traitor to the Buddha world, so that another thing can be explained clearly, how can it be so coincidental...... ”

"Brother, what's the matter?" Hongxiang asked curiously.

Xiao Cong came back to his senses suddenly, muttered for a moment, and flickered,

"It's almost dawn, I have to go to the mountains for morning class, I'll tell you about this later. ”

With that, he got up and got out of the tent.

Hongxiang looked at Xiao Cong's figure hidden behind the leather curtain, pursed his lips and said dissatisfied:

"Hmph, tell me something later, you obviously don't want to tell me!"

After complaining, he lay on the ground and closed his eyes, and after a while, the snoring gradually started, and this guy fell asleep again!
