Chapter 80: The End of the Dream Snake
"Since it works, can we start now?" Tang Wanqiu couldn't help but look at the empty dust with great anticipation.
"Don't worry, county lord."
Kongchen said softly: "The first step is to gather the medicinal power of the Ecstasy Channel, the second step is to expel it from the body, and the third step must transfer the Divine Attraction away, after all, the medicinal power of this Ecstasy Attraction is connected to the heart and soul of the poisoner, even if it is temporarily expelled, it will be reintegrated." β
Tang Bangqiu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Can it be transferred to the death row prisoner?" β
Kongchen shook his head and said: "The reason why this fascination is difficult to solve is that it will return to the original owner and go to the Buddha country with the spirit of the original owner, so only the human arhats who comprehend the 'emptiness' and are close to the Buddha country can use the Buddha country to wipe out the power of the fascination medicine." β
"Or do you want a human arhat?" Tang Wanqiu frowned.
That's when β
"May I?"
Suddenly, a soft woman's voice rang out.
Everyone turned their heads to look and saw a snake girl helping Qiao Baiyue out of the inner hall.
The snake girl looked at the county lord and said softly: "County lord, just now I heard that I could save the second sister and the seventh sister, so I quickly told Bai Yue, I thought she might be able to help." β
"Baiyue ......" Tang Wanqiu looked at Qiao Baiyue and sighed.
After being hit by the weeping dragon rope, Qiao Baiyue's mana and demon body were sealed, and now her body is quite fragile, and it is a little difficult to even walk, and she doesn't feel good when she sees her best friend like this.
"County Lord, don't worry about me."
Qiao Baiyue shook her head slightly, then looked at Kongchen and asked, "Master, I am proficient in the dream realm supernatural powers, and I can dive into the dream sea, can I help?" β
"Can you enter the Dream Sea?" Kongchen was taken aback.
Then he thought for a moment, frowned, and said: "But this Divine Charm can only be wiped out with the help of the Buddha Kingdom, and the Dream Sea can at most temporarily seal the Divine Attraction and prevent it from returning to its original owner." β
Qiao Baiyue seemed to understand something, was silent for a while, and said, "I know, just seal it in the Dream Sea?" β
Kong Chen looked at Qiao Baiyue, sighed and shook his head: "But in this way, if you transfer the Divine Attraction to you, you will use the Dream Sea to force the Divine Attraction Medicine, and your spirit will also be forced to leave the physical body, and you can only stay in the Dreaming Sea, otherwise once you leave the Dreaming Sea, your efforts will be lost, and you will not be able to return to the physical body." β
Tang Bangqiu couldn't help but say, "Is there no other way?" Why do you still want to sacrifice Bai Yue? β
Lin Lan said softly, "Can other great supernatural powers help?" β
Kong Chen shook his head slowly, and sighed with a complicated look in his eyes: "This is a fascination after all, if it can be easily resolved, I'm afraid she won't end up like that......"
Immediately, he took a deep breath, looked at Qiao Baiyue, and asked, "This donor, are you sure?" β
"Okay, so be it." Qiao Baiyue nodded calmly.
After speaking, she glanced at Lin Lan again, and said: "Anyway, there is no other way, in fact, I want to kill Lin Lan more, but I can also save my sister, it's a big deal that I rejoin Jingtiantai, and act as the first lord, without Mr. Lin, and I still have use value, I may not kill me, right?" β
Lin Lan frowned, and was about to speak, but he suddenly felt a sense of suddenness, and an illusory memory also appeared in his mind.
Immediately, he looked at Qiao Baiyue slightly stunned, and said softly, "Why are you doing this?" β
"You're just an outsider, I want to save my sister, what's wrong?" Qiao Baiyue looked at him expressionlessly, "It's good now, my sister can live, and you don't have to die, this is already the best result, right?" β
Lin Lan opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything.
Because he didn't know how to refute it.
He has waited so long and can't find a better way, and now it may be the best ending, what else can he do?
Everything is a helpless choice.
Qiao Baiyue didn't say much, and immediately turned her head to look at Kongchen and said, "Master Kongchen, please start." β
Empty Dust sighed.
β¦β¦
Half an hour later.
"Out!"
Kong Chen snorted lightly, and with a little fingertips, he saw two surging golden lights, which suddenly flew out from Qiao Shuangshuang and Qiao Qiqi's Heavenly Spirit Gai.
He said softly, "Master Lin, you can put away your supernatural powers." β
Lin Lan's face was slightly gloomy, he turned his head to look at Qiao Baiyue, and said softly: "It's still too late to turn back, I won't kill you." β
Qiao Baiyue was slightly stunned, and then said coldly: "But I can't save my sisters, I will still kill you." β
She looked at the empty dust and said, "Master, leave it to me." β
Kong Chen sighed, and with a fingertip pull, he immediately let these two golden rays of light fly towards Qiao Baiyue, and said at the same time: "Don't resist, I will temporarily integrate the Divine Attraction into your body, and when the power of the Divine Attraction occurs in your body and engulfs your Divine Soul, you can just dive into the Dream Sea." β
"Okay." Qiao Baiyue bowed slightly.
The next moment, as if peeling off a cocoon, wisps of golden light began to merge into Qiao Baiyue's body.
Everyone looked at Qiao Baiyue silently, with mixed feelings.
And Qiao Baiyue's fifteen sisters had long been crying, and they kept looking at their little sister with tears.
Tang Bangqiu also bit his lip stubbornly.
"Huh?"
But Kong Chen suddenly looked at Qiao Baiyue in surprise, and said in disbelief: "No, your divine soul ...... How could your spirit be like this? β
"Nothing." Qiao Baiyue said.
As soon as Tang Bangqiu heard the word divine soul, he suddenly seemed to be unable to hold back, and looked at Qiao Baiyue with tears in his eyes.
Kong Chen looked at Qiao Baiyue, his eyes were full of compassion and sympathy, and he frowned again: "And you have won the great divine power of my Buddhist sect, the 'Great Thunder Yin Pudu Technique'?" You...... Can you resist? Do you have the will to become holy? β
Qiao Baiyue was silent for a while, and sighed: "It's just barely resisting." β
"Great Thunder Sound Purdue Technique?"
Lin Lan suddenly spoke softly, his eyes staring at Qiao Baiyue, and asked, "Is this the reason why you keep forcing me to kill you?" β
Qiao Baiyue was stunned, looked at Lin Lan, and muttered, "You know? β
"I didn't confirm it before, but I heard you say this kind of thing just now, so I really confirmed it."
Lin Lan laughed self-deprecatingly, slowly closed his eyes, and sighed: "It's not that I haven't seen your experience, if you have to tell me something like killing me to save your sister, aren't you deliberately looking for death?" β
He opened his eyes and looked at Qiao Baiyue, "You know that the first venerable has a means left on me, and you are destined to not be able to kill me, and you still have to say that, don't you just want me to give up on you?" β
Qiao Baiyue was taken aback, "How do you know ......?"
She suddenly looked at Tang Bangqiu, then at Lin Lan, and muttered, "Could it be that the note was not left to me by the county lord, but you?" β
β¦β¦
Faguang Temple, as the largest Buddhist temple in Dayu, is located outside Chonghua City.
At this time, in the Daxiong Hall of Faguang Temple.
"Huh?"
A deep voice suddenly sounded: "Abbot, the Divine Attraction we left on those two snake demons suddenly disappeared just now, could it be that other Arhats in the human world in my Buddhist Sect have made a move?" β
"Disappear?" A slightly old voice sounded: "No, even if the dream snake has a good relationship with the county lord of Pingle, can the county lord of Pingle still invite my Daji monk?" β
The deep voice said, "Maybe it's something else?" After all, he is the descendant of the first national teacher, and it is extraordinary after all. β
"Maybe." The old voice sighed: "There is no news of Lin Lan's death, it seems that the dream snake has not moved, it is really incredible, it seems that she really has the will to enter the sainthood?" β
"The abbot's Great Thunder Sound Purdue Technique, if an ordinary supernatural person does not have the will to enter the sainthood, he must be unable to resist."
The deep voice said: "But when I met the dream snake in my dream this morning, the dream snake was under the abbot's thunderous voice, but it was still able to open its mouth to refuse, which already shows that its will is amazing, and it is normal to have the will to enter the sainthood." β
"It's a pity...... the old voice sighed softly, "that Lin Lan's talent is shocking, if he is allowed to cultivate, I am afraid that it will take a hundred years at most, and the Dayu Human Sect will have one more great supernatural power, and the dream snake also knows many secrets of my Daji, and I must find an opportunity to cut them one by one in the future." β
"Wait...... Abbot. β
The deep voice suddenly said: "The Divine Attraction has not disappeared, but it has been transferred, it seems that it is not the Arhat in the human world who made the move, otherwise the Divine Attraction should be wiped out...... Could it be that the dream snake was transferred to the dream sea? β
The old voice was silent for a long time, and said: "If this is the case, the dream snake will also be trapped in the dream sea, you quickly go and ask the Great Dream Monk to come to Dayu, with his attainments in the Great Dream Heart Sutra, as long as the dream sea fluctuates, he can dive into the dream sea, this is a good opportunity." β
"Yes, Abbot."
β¦β¦
"Because...... I don't want you to die. β
Lin Lan looked at Qiao Baiyue with complicated eyes, and said softly: "Although I calculated that you killed me, I can't really be sure that it was you, and I didn't know if I could change it at first, until Ji Shouzun sent someone to send me a letter, I felt that it might be different." β
He sighed and said, "To this day, after the Ecstasy was triggered, you still said that you would kill me, I don't think it's like you, but it's not uncertain, so I told you the news, I hope you don't send you to death, and this can also change." β
The hall was silent, and everyone looked at the two in silence.
The wisps of golden light drawn by the fascination continued to sink into Qiao Baiyue's body.
And Qiao Baiyue was silent for a moment before she spoke: "The first time we met in a dream, Lin Gongzi asked me what kind of situation I would kill you, at that time I wondered if you knew how to calculate, calculated that I might kill you, yesterday before the seventh sister fell asleep, after telling me about this, I realized that it was really possible for me to kill you." β
"Because of the Great Thunder Sound Purdue Technique?" Lin Lan asked.
"Blame me for being too reckless."
Qiao Baiyue smiled self-deprecatingly, "I entered the dream of the second sister and the seventh sister, and led me to meet the abbot of the Faguang Temple, the 'Monk of Bitterness', and I didn't notice his Great Thunder Sound Pudu Technique for a while, and his voice kept echoing in my mind, urging me to kill you and save my sister all the time, although I endured it hard, I don't know how long I can endure it." β
She sighed slowly, "Even a great supernatural can't undo this Great Thunder Sound Purdue Technique, so it's really possible for me to do something to you." β
Lin Lan said with a complicated expression: "So you just said something like that, and you want me to kill you first?" β
"There is no better way...... Qiao Baiyue looked at Lin Lan and said with a wry smile: "Lin Gongzi, you are kind to me, I can't really kill you to save my sister." β
Speaking of this, she looked at the wisps of golden light that continued to seep into her body, showed a smile, and said, "It's good like this now, isn't it?" β
Lin Lan fell silent.
He also knew that there was no better way.
If he could change the destiny of heaven, at least he didn't want Qiao Baiyue to die.
Killing her directly is already the most extreme means.
Even if he had to kill, he wanted to find a reason to convince himself.
"Fan Qingyao's situation is a note you left." Lin Lan asked softly.
Qiao Baiyue nodded lightly, "I heard that Miss Fan was unconscious, as if she had fallen into a dream, so I sneaked into her dream to check it, she told me that she just learned three phoenix songs, which led to the inheritance of the Qin Saint left in the Guqin Fengbei Thousand Autumns, so she fell into the dream, practiced in the dream, and tempered the heart of the qin." β
When the people around heard this, they couldn't help but look at her in a daze.
After Fan Qingyao fell unconscious, the old national teacher said that there were traces of a dream snake falling into a dream, and many people thought that it was done by the dream snake at that time, if it weren't for Lin Lan himself not blaming Qiao Baiyue, they would have already thought that it was the dream snake.
"Miss Joe."
Granny Win suddenly spoke softly, bowed down in shame, and said apologetically: "The old body thought that you did this before, and it was all because the old body had no eyes, it seems that the county lord's vision is better, I'm really sorry." β
Qiao Baiyue shook her head slightly, and said: "I originally wanted you to treat me as a threat and kill me as soon as possible, this is not your fault, if it weren't for the Great Thunder Yin Purdue Technique that made me unable to commit suicide, I also had a glimmer of hope, otherwise I would have ended it myself." β
"Little Sister ......"
Her fifteen older sisters looked at her with tears in their eyes.
Qiao Baiyue bit her lip and looked at them, she knew...... She's sorry for her sisters.
Tang Bangqiu's lips had already bitten out blood marks, she looked at Qiao Baiyue, and suddenly said, "What are you talking about these frustrating words?" You're just sleeping, Bai Yue, trust me, I'll definitely find other monks to save you. β
"Thank you, Lord County."
Qiao Baiyue smiled, "But you better calm down, although I don't know why the old national teacher has been letting you stabilize your state of mind, but I think that a person like you, who seems to be difficult to get along with, but is actually soft-hearted, has too deep concerns in his heart, and his mood is indeed the most difficult to balance." β
"Lord Joe."
Kongchen sighed softly: "It's okay if you can't find other monks, when the little monk resumes cultivation in the future, he will definitely help you get rid of the fascination, maybe you are the enemy that Faguang Temple wants to deal with, but the little monk is already regarded as a traitor by the Buddhism, and no matter how hostile it is, it won't get in the way." β
"Thank you, Master." Qiao Baiyue said softly.
Seeing that most of the two golden lights that were fascinated by the gods were integrated into Qiao Baiyue's body, everyone also understood-
It's almost time to part.
"Lin Gongzi."
Qiao Baiyue looked at Lin Lan and said softly: "Miss Fan told me in a dream that you once said something to her - 'Even if a good person doesn't have a good reward, he shouldn't have such an ending', right?" β
Lin Lan looked at her silently.
Qiao Baiyue smiled and said, "But Lord Shouzun also told me that a stupid and good person like me, just like those people in the Human Sect, often only deserves such an ending, and I ......am self-inflicted."
She sighed lightly: "So I've been thinking, if I can get the ending that a good person should have like this, it's not bad, doesn't it just show that my heart can worship the human sect?" It's a pity...... I just entered the Academy Palace, and I didn't have the opportunity to worship the Human Sect again, and I have done so many things for Jingtiantai, so I can't be considered a good demon......"
Lin Lan was stunned.
He suddenly remembered.
In the memories that Qiao Baiyue replayed in her dream that day, she said that she wanted to be a good demon, so she never killed people and wanted to worship the Human Sect.
Originally...... Has she never changed?
Lin Lan took a deep breath, looked at Qiao Baiyue with his eyes, and suddenly said slowly: "Qiao Baiyue, I will definitely become the master of the Human Sect, after you wake up in the future, you will worship me as a teacher, and then you will be a disciple of the Human Sect." β
His tone was serious and firm, and his eyes were solemn and confident.
Everyone was stunned, but no one would doubt the words of this No. 1 genius.
"Then I've really taken advantage of it."
Qiao Baiyue smiled, "Then you are not allowed to regret it, Lin Gongzi, you will be my Qiao Baiyue's master in the future, forget it, I will apprentice now, lest you not admit it in the future?" β
Immediately, she knelt down and bowed respectfully, "The apprentice has seen the master." β
At this moment, Lin Lan looked at her apprenticeship, and her heart couldn't help but feel a lot of waves.
He remembered the person who turned into light and dust when he was in Tengen Beppu, when he also kowtowed to his master like this, and now he is facing a similar situation, but he has become a master......
After the three kowtows, Qiao Baiyue slowly raised her head, looked at Lin Lan with gentle eyes, and said softly:
"Master, you are really a very good person, I said that I would kill you, and you also calculated that I was going to kill you obviously just a matter of words, but you still refused to kill me, sure enough, it is the same as Miss Fan said, no wonder she is so ......"
At this moment, the last rays of golden light began to merge into her body.
Qiao Baiyue suddenly had an extra piece of white jade-like scales in his hand, controlling it to float into Lin Lan's hand.
"There is nothing good for apprentices, this heart scale, the master can use it to refine the weapon, and he will also be able to restrain the dream means in the future."
Lin Lan looked at her and sighed: "It's not a farewell, I will find a way to wake you up in the future." β
"I know." Qiao Baiyue stood up and said with a smile: "It's a pity that I haven't had time to repay the favor, so I'll pay you back when I wake up, Master." β
The last rays of golden light dissipated.
And her eyes began to blur.
"It's just right, I'm so tired, it's good to let me rest for a while."
Qiao Baiyue's gaze slowly swept over everyone, looking at her master, looking at her sister, looking at her friend, and slowly closed her eyes.
A smile tugged at the corners of her mouth, and she murmured one last time:
"It's a pity, I can't see the lanterns for tomorrow's Lantern Festival, help me hang a lantern......"
Immediately, her soulless and delicate body fell into Tang Bangqiu's arms, which flashed behind her.
Tang Wanqiu gently stretched out his hand, smoothed a strand of Qiao Baiyue's hair, and then looked at her and said softly: "Baiyue, have a good rest." β
Lin Lan watched this scene silently.
He had already seen this scene just now, Qiao Baiyue, who had no endgame, ushered in her endgameβor rather, the endgame in this year and a half.
Destiny has changed in this way.
He finally got the ending he had been looking for.
But somehow...... But he couldn't be happier.
