Chapter 22 - Decide to act

It's a hot summer day, and the air is stuffy. There are cicadas perched on the branches in the courtyard, and they are vigorously shouting "Know, know". It was hot outside, but it was as cold as early spring in the room, and the Bodhi Patriarch walked off the bed with the dust in his hand and helped up the aquatic life who was kneeling on the ground. Said: "Get up, I have something to ask you for the teacher." ”

At this time, Shui Sheng was already sweating through his clothes, and beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead kept falling down. I was already very frightened in my heart, just now the patriarch's body exuded a majesty of one billionth of a billion, almost scaring himself to death. This feeling is even more terrifying than meeting the Styx Ancestor in the Netherworld Blood Sea.

Patriarch Bodhi came to the courtyard and said, "What do you think of all things in the Three Realms?"

Shui Sheng said: "The disciple does not dare to assert it. ”

Bodhi Patriarch said: "Since Pangu opened the world, heaven and earth have the qi of yin and yang @ all things breed. The world has become so quiet that the world has become chaotic, and you come and go in a chaotic way. The three clans of the Dragon and Han tribulations fell, and the emperor of the demon clan, Emperor Jun, led the demon clan to prosper. Since then, the demon clan has stood in the Three Realms. If it weren't for the Wu clan to fight against it, this colorful world would be the demon clan's. In the Lich War, the two clans were defeated, and then Nuwa created people, and the human race took advantage of the void to enter. There is also a Mixed Yuan Sect Master spreading enlightenment, and in an instant, many romantic characters have emerged, making indelible contributions to the human race. Humans and demons have been inseparable since ancient times, do you know?"

Shui Sheng said respectfully: "The disciple is stupid. ”

Patriarch Bodhi said: "Look at the story of this garden, how many ancestors have gone through hardships to get it, you have not experienced the sorrow of the human race being enslaved in ancient times. You also won't understand how much hatred there really is between shemales. ”

The aquatic creature immediately knelt on the ground, pressing his body tightly against the ground.

"Criminal, I don't care about the rise and fall of the world, I don't care about the fortune of the Heavenly Dao, but you, my last disciple. Being a teacher is to pity you. Patriarch Bodhi said hatefully: "If you give to the demon clan, you will naturally be able to repay the kindness of the old man of Peachtree to you." But he wants to put you in a place from which there will be no return. The great prosperity of the demon clan will inevitably disturb the world, and the human race has a figure like the leader of the mixed Yuan sect, but what about the demon clan? The two sons born to the former Yuan Feng were Dapeng and the other were peacocks, and they all went to the West to release the sect. ”

Shui Sheng prostrate and said: "The disciple is stupid. ”

Patriarch Bodhi sighed and said, "That's it, that's it." Since you already have an idea in your heart, why do you bother to ask me, this master? ”

Shui Sheng said: "The disciple reads the classics, and the ancestor of the Taishang Dao once said: 'Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs' The disciple is a person who is hated by the way of heaven. The relationship between the disciple and the Heavenly Dao has long been severed, and if he can do his best for the demon clan, it can be regarded as death without regrets. When the disciple was in Huaguo Mountain in the past, he went through great ups and downs and watched his beloved die by the arrangement of the Heavenly Dao. The way of heaven has played with us and other people in the applause. Regarded as ants, ants still steal life. What's more, the disciple implored the master to open the door of convenience. ”

Patriarch Bodhi said, "Get up." I've been out of business for years. The junior's affairs are up to you. ”

Shui Sheng was overjoyed and said, "Thank you master for your success." ”

Patriarch Bodhi said, "Go ahead." ”

Shui Sheng got up and slowly withdrew from the courtyard of the Bodhi Patriarch, and he couldn't stop the excitement in his heart. He hurried to the building.

The patriarch in the courtyard drove the clouds to the Rotten Peach Mountain, and suddenly appeared in the mid-air of the Rotten Peach Mountain, and the branches and leaves of the peach trees in a forest withered, and the sorrow could not be stopped. The patriarch shook his head and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity that you and I have been neighbors for thousands of years." ”

The old man of the peach tree came out, and there were already a few more wrinkles on his face, and he said with a peachwood cane: "Rare guest, you have never set foot on my rotten peach mountain since the stubborn monkey caused some trouble thousands of years ago. ”

Patriarch Bodhi pressed the head of the cloud, walked slowly under the shade of the tree and said, "The Si people are going to die, so I am here to see them off." ”

A stone table and stone chair slowly raised on the ground, and the two sat down, and there were magpies to bring wild fruits in the mountains, and mountain apes to call the clear spring. The old man of the peach tree waved one hand, and a tea set appeared on the stone table. "The ugly man of the mountains, there is nothing to entertain, some wild fruits, mountain springs. The old man of the peach tree poured a cup of mountain spring for the Bodhi patriarch.

Looking at the clear mountain spring seems to exude a faint fairy energy, the seemingly plain mountain spring contains countless true elements, this mountain spring is a collection of innate aura, the water contains a domineering true element, if it is put in the fairy world, it will be shocked by a thousand waves.

"You're not a little angry. The patriarch took a sip of the mountain spring and said lightly. It's like drinking an ordinary mountain spring, and he doesn't take the domineering true yuan inside to heart at all.

The old man of Peach Tree said disapprerovingly: "I have taken advantage of you for thousands of years, and it doesn't hurt to make a loss-making deal today." My life is bright, but I feel very guilty about you. ”

Patriarch Bodhi was silent.

"If you hadn't come forward back then, my old bones would have been divided up by the Three Realms long ago. It's a pity that you don't have the heart to fight for hegemony, and you and I will definitely change the day again. The old man of the peach tree said in high spirits: "How can you be overwhelmed by the juniors...... The old man of Peachtree hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you regret it?"

Patriarch Bodhi drank the mountain spring in one gulp and said, "Regret? Haha, you will also tell jokes." If I don't save you, how can I eat the peach trees you planted for thousands of years? Do I want to shamelessly run to the filthy heavenly palace and grovel to beg for the broken peach? ”

Both were silent.

After a long time, the Bodhi Patriarch spoke: "Do you really want to entrust the demon clan to my disciple?"

The old man of the peach tree said, "I have already transferred the sword of the peach ancestor to him. ”

"I see, he's only been in my door for less than a month, and you're in too much of a hurry. Patriarch Bodhi said with some anger.

The old man of Peach Tree said: "I know, but unfortunately I don't have much time, my body is maintaining for three months at most, and after three months, I don't even have the strength to transform into shape." After I die, the demon clan will not have the last respite. How can I not be in a hurry. ”

A withered peach leaf fell down and landed on the stone table, and the withered yellow peach leaf indicated that the old man of the peach tree whose time was running out would leave this world.

"Your heart is in pain. "Bodhi Patriarch said.

The old man of Peachtree smiled. Seems to be self-deprecating.

"You really don't plan to help Jue Sheng, you know very well why he can't draw qi into his body. You're a master too. The old man of the peach tree avoided the topic just now, and poured a cup of clear mountain spring for the Bodhi Patriarch. Pour a brightly colored mountain fruit into your mouth.

Patriarch Bodhi said, "If he can't do anything, you will misjudge him." I won't get too involved in his business. His future fate has been linked to the demon clan. I, as a master, can't interfere. ”

The old man of Peach Tree said: "You cunning old man, Mingzhe is too quick to protect himself. ”

"Each other, each other. ”

"I don't know how many teenagers I will see next time. I respect you. Patriarch Bodhi swept away the dust, and the clear water in the cup was replaced by fragrant sake.

Smelling the aroma of wine emanating from the cup, the old man of the peach tree had a bright light in his eyes, and sighed with a sigh: "Good wine, good wine, this has been hidden by you for a long time, and the naughty monkey didn't steal it from me." ”

Patriarch Bodhi said proudly: "Ever since you instigated the monkey to steal the wine but failed, I have always carried it with me. ”

"It's a pity, you better keep it for Juesheng. It's useless for the old man to enjoy it, it's just a mouthful. To give it to him is to make the best of it. The old man peachtree pushed the wine back.

"Hmph, you can be a good person, he is still my disciple, I don't need you to behave. "Bodhi Patriarch said.

The old man of the peach tree said: "You don't care about it, you just said to let it go, and in a blink of an eye, you said that I was digging a corner." He inherited my peachwood sword and is also considered half of my disciple, if you don't teach, I will teach it. ”

Patriarch Bodhi stroked his palms and laughed: "Okay, what I'm waiting for is your words." ”

The old man of the peach tree shouted: "You are fooled, you are an old and disrespectful guy, you are dignified in front of the juniors, and you are completely exposed in my place." No, no. ”

Bodhi Patriarch said solemnly: "If you want him to escape the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, you have to make a move." You don't want the demon clan to be ruined by you, I will naturally teach him all the skills, but the time has not yet come, and the way of heaven is close to me. ”

The old man of Peachtree nodded and said, "I know that you are in a difficult situation, and you have to do things with your hands and feet. It will last for three years, and at most three years, I will build an invincible physique for him. It's just a pity that I can't see him shine. ”

Shui Sheng in the building is reading Confucian classics and reviewing some lessons. It just so happened that Enlightenment also came to the @ Jinglou to consult the classics, so he grabbed Enlightenment and said: "Senior brother, what are the enlightenment books when you were a child?"

Enlightenment said: "Little junior brother, what do you mean by enlightenment?"

Shui Sheng put it another way: "Books in the school that teach people to read and write." ”

"Oh, that's the case, what's the use of the little junior brother asking for this introductory book?" These books have been taught by Mr. since childhood, and the basics of literacy and hyphenation have been taught by the teacher.

Shui Sheng said: "Feel free to flip through it if you have nothing to do." ”

"You go twenty meters ahead, turn left and you will find the second floor under the forty-three bookshelves. Enlightenment clearly points out where the book is hidden.

Shui Sheng said in surprise: "Senior brother remembers so clearly, he must have the ability to never forget." ”

Jue Wu scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "I was originally a scholar who was hopeless in the imperial examination, and I had a fate with my master to enter Fangcun Mountain to practice. ”

Shui Sheng suddenly realized: "I see, I won't bother Senior Brother anymore." ”

After speaking, he walked in the direction of enlightenment, and sure enough, he found some Confucian classics under the bookshelf, such as "Thousand Character Text", "Urgent Chapter", and some more advanced books, such as the Four Books and Five Classics, and the Hundred Schools of Thought. Take a copy of "Thousand Character Text" and open it to take a look: the heaven and earth are yellow, the universe is desolate, the sun and the moon are shining, and the Chensu column is ......

When the whole article is opened, there is naturally a whole piece of thousand-word text in my mind. Close your eyes and recall the words in your eyes. I read it silently in my heart, opened my eyes and checked it again, and wrote down the whole text word for word. Juesheng was surprised when he had developed the ability to remember. I took down another book and read it carefully, then covered the book, silently recalled the content of the book in my heart, and memorized it word for word.

The frightened and frightened Shui Sheng was just about to go to the Bodhi Patriarch, but he didn't want the Patriarch to be standing at the door and said with a smile: "Did you find that you have the ability to remember?"

Shui Sheng didn't dare to hide it at all: "The disciple doesn't know why this is the case. ”

Bodhi Patriarch said: "This is a good thing, don't worry, now you have the ability to never forget, you can see all the scriptures in one day." What's the difference?"

Shui Sheng said in fear: "I also hope that the ancestor will name the mysteries, and the disciples are grateful." ”

The Bodhi Patriarch took the aquatic life to a remote corner and said, "This is a heavenly opportunity, and you should not take outsiders lightly. You have the ability to never forget but also thanks to the old man of the peach tree to give you the sword of the peach ancestor, this sword is a treasure of heaven and earth, it is a peach tree spiritual root since the world has not opened, this treasure is made in front of heaven and earth, there is supreme power, today you are fortunate to be careful and cautious, not to let others know, otherwise you will be coveted by others. As for the identity of the old man of Peachtree, I can't reveal it, but this person has never appeared. ”

Shui Sheng said with great emotion in his heart: "The disciple respectfully follows the master's teachings. ”
