Chapter 318: Five Finger Mountain

"This old man, can you ask for a sip of water?"

Tang Tian bowed down, it has been a few days into this high mountain, the sacred mountain is very large, standing at the foot of the mountain can not see the edge at a glance, the dense forest is full, just like a mountain range, looking up can see the peak like five fingers straight into the sky, there are many beasts in the mountain, all the way carefully marching, dry food is almost eaten.

His lips were chapped from not drinking for a long time, his eyes were ghosted, and just as he was about to faint, a hut appeared in front of his vision, and an old man was carrying a hunting bow and preparing to go out.

Although he didn't know why there were inhabitants in the deep mountains, he didn't think too much about it, and hurriedly asked him.

"Where did this monk come from, even daring to trespass on Wuzhi Mountain? And you got lucky to be here? But meeting is fate, wait, I'll scoop water for you."

Although he was surprised to meet a monk here, he did not hesitate to give a bowl of water, turned around and came to the house, scooped a bowl of water with a water scoop, and kindly took out a few pieces of dried meat and walked out.

"Thank you, old man."

Tang Tian clasped his hands together and thanked the old man, the old man waved his hand, and then handed over the dried meat, seeing this, Tang Tian waved his hand again and again: "The poor monk is ordained, and he is not allowed to eat meat and fishy things, the old man's heart is known to the poor monk, but this thing still needs to be taken back by the old man."

"Oh! Are there any people in the world who don't eat meat? This is not a Buddhist temple or a temple, no one is here, only you know and I know, why can't you eat? I will not spread the word, and if you don't eat some food, you will not be able to cross this mountain, and you will starve to death in this place."

The old man shook his head and admonished.

"No matter where I am, the place where I am is is the Buddha Hall, the Buddha is good, the great love of the world, all living beings are equal, karma is not touched, sweeping the ground is afraid of hurting the life of ants, this is the great good and the great sage!"

Facing Tang Tian, the old man looked at him with a neurotic look, and couldn't help but ask when he saw him take the water bowl

"The mighty word is 108,000 insects underwater, if you go down like this, how many thousands of lives will die?"

When Tang Tian heard this, his body was stunned, and he said with a sad face: "Buddha goodness is not Yu goodness, good is regarded as before saving life, there is great righteousness to give up oneself, if there is no great righteousness, naturally focus on oneself?"

"Hypocrisy?"

"This is a Buddha!"

The old man nodded, but he didn't expect him to say it so clearly, but he also admired this monk, even if he was hypocritical, he was much better than most people, and this hypocrisy was not his hypocrisy.

Of course he can't do it, but he doesn't admire people like monks.

"There are still some melons and fruits in the room, so I'll fill your belly."

Returning to the house, he took out the melons and fruits, and saw the monk chewing slowly, and without saying a word, he finished eating, and then said to Tang Tian: "Monk, I still have to go out hunting, if you want to rest, you can go in, I don't have any valuables when I live alone in the wilderness, you can rest and move forward."

"Thank you, old man!"

Tang Tian nodded, he had been on the road for nearly half a month, and he was indeed a little tired, but now he could take a good rest, so he naturally would not refuse.

"To give convenience to others is to give convenience to yourself, but it's a small thing, thank you for doing it, take a good rest, there are many places that need to be paid attention to in this Wuzhi Mountain, wait for me to show you that it's not too late for you to go, and you are lucky to be a monk to be able to walk here!"

Speaking of this, the old man didn't say much, and entered the mountains and forests with a bow, Tang Tian pushed open the door, found a wooden bed and lay down, and when he woke up again, a strong smell of blood entered the bottom of his nose, and he couldn't help frowning, but he didn't say anything.

"Awake?"

Coincidentally, at this time, the old man walked in with a cleaned hare, and greeted Tang Tian when he woke up.

"Hmm"

Tang Tian nodded, and his complexion didn't change much.

"Oh, Buddha, I also know one thing, it's not that you don't like to kill, why are you like this?"

"But it's also uncomfortable, but the Buddha cultivator is me and not you, why should I impose my creed on you, I believe in Buddhism so I don't kill, and all this you do is your choice, it has nothing to do with me, I naturally won't put on a face to make you unhappy."

!」

The old man nodded, he was different from many monks, admitting that he was hypocritical, unlike those monks who like to argue, and he will not look down on others because of his teachings, a very interesting monk.

Without saying a word, the old man roasted the rabbit meat for dinner, handed Tang Tian some picked fruits, and explained to Tang Tian the steep place of Wuzhi Mountain.

"This five-finger mountain has a long history, there are many monsters and beasts in the mountain, among which the tiger is still victorious, the ancestors wanted to kill the tiger to show their bravery and moved to this five-finger mountain, so the general situation of this mountain is much clearer, you can come here is pure luck, but this is only the periphery, listen to my advice, or go back obediently."

The old man's words did not move Tang Tian, he said that he could not go back at this moment, and he still remembered that Ji Wuming had said when he sent him away that he had allowed himself to return to the Buddha Gate Lingshan without showing his generosity.

Although it was just this simple sentence, Tang Tian knew that he couldn't go back, and Emperor Zun would not allow him to go back.

Seeing Tang Tian's firm face, the old man sighed, and he didn't persuade: "This mountain was built by a strong immortal god to suppress a demon, I have gone deep into the depths of this mountain, and I once glanced at it, just under the peak of the middle knuckle, don't take this road!" As for the other few days, all of a sudden, jackals and wild leopards, looking at your fine skin and tender meat, I am afraid that you will not be making a meal on the plate of those beasts, so I will give you a ride tomorrow."

"Then thank you to the old man!"

Tang Tian's heart moved, and when he heard the suppression of demons under the mountain, for some reason, a voice sounded in his heart, which seemed to be an admonition, and it seemed to be a guide, guiding himself towards that area.

"You don't have to thank me, I also have a purpose to help you first, a week ago, a demon tiger entered this mountain, I have killed tigers all my life, and now when I encounter this opportunity, I naturally want to hunt a demon tiger to prove that I am stronger than my ancestors, so you are a bait, after all, it is better to be my bait than you die yourself." Maybe you can live, how about it, can you do this deal?"

"Amitabha!"

Tang Tian pronounced a Buddha horn and nodded.

Immediately, the two of them stopped talking and rested.

The next day, the two packed up everything and set off, in order to hunt the demon tiger, the old man also deliberately filled the quiver behind his back, and hung a long knife on his waist that he knew at a glance that it was not an ordinary blade.

It is inconvenient to ride a horse in the mountains and forests, Tang Tian led the horse in front, and the old man also concentrated on holding a bow and a knife in the back, and it didn't take long for the surroundings to become silent, not to hear the sound of insects, not to see the birds, the old man's face was solemn, which showed that this place was the territory of a fierce beast, so that there were no other creatures left in such an area. z.br>

The atmosphere was visibly depressed, and fear amplified in the silence.

Tang Tian was just a powerless monk, and in the face of this situation, he couldn't help but panic in his heart, so he could only continue to recite Buddhist scriptures to calm the fear in his heart.

"Roar!"

An earth-shattering tiger roared loudly, and in an instant, the evil wind hit his face, accompanied by the foul smell of the evil wind that swept Tang Tian away, and the horses broke free and galloped in fear, but they didn't run far before they heard a mournful roar.

At this time, Tang Tiancai got up, only to see the old man looking at the three-person tall tiger in front of him with an excited face!

"Okay, good, I didn't expect to meet you not long after I went out! If I kill you like this, I will surpass my ancestors, and I will have no regrets in this life!"

The old man shouted, the longbow in his hand jumped, and the sharp arrows were constantly shot out, flying towards the demon tiger.

In the face of the arrows coming at a rapid speed, the demon tiger didn't even bother to move, a huge tiger's mouth was still biting the horse that had lost its vitality in front of him, the arrows were approaching, and a few muffled sounds could be heard, and then he saw the broken arrows fall to the ground.

"How is that possible?"

The old man looked at this scene in disbelief, he had hunted countless tigers in his life, and he thought that the fierce tigers that the world feared were just like that, but he didn't expect this demon tiger to be so powerful, and the arrow could not enter the body, so I am afraid that he could only take risks.

He threw down his longbow and pulled out the long knife at his waist, the blade of which exuded a bone-chilling chill in the light.

"Drink"

The old man snorted, and without the slightest hesitation, he turned his sword towards the demon

The tiger killed the past, the momentum was remarkable, Tang Tian couldn't help but admire when he saw it, what a mighty old man, even if it was an ordinary armor sergeant, a dozen people would not be able to get close to this person.

"Roar!"

In the face of the old man's constant provocation, the corners of the demon tiger's eyes showed humanized disdain, and then there was a heaven-shattering tiger roar, the old man was stunned in place, blood spurted out from the seven holes, and he fell to the ground and died.

"Why do mortals kill demons?"

The demon tiger's disdainful look fell on Tang Tian's eyes, he understood the meaning of this demon, stopped the horror in his heart, ran, the farther he ran, the better.

Running away in a panic all the way, the wind behind him continued, Tang Tian's heart sank, with the power of the demon tiger, he was fully capable of catching up with him in an instant, so he was afraid that he didn't mean to tease himself.

"Damn, is my Tang Tian's life over! I haven't reached the Spiritual Mountain yet, I haven't passed the Dharma yet, I'm not willing!"

Tang Tian screamed sadly but did not stop, at this moment, a huge pressure like a mountain fell, Tang Tian fell to the ground, turned around and saw the demon tiger also prostrate on the ground like himself, looking up, his heart sank.

I saw that the knuckle-like peak was in front of me, and it happened to be the middle one, and in a panic, I ran to the place where the fairy god suppressed the demon in the old man's mouth, and he just came out of the tiger's den and entered the devil's mouth!

"Monk? I hate monks the most in my life, but I see everything about you, you are not a hypocritical monk, and come close, let me see if you are the monk I am waiting for."

When the voice fell, Tang Tian felt the pressure on his body empty, and when he saw that the demon tiger behind him was still like that, he knew that it was the so-called demon who made a move, so he stubbornly walked towards the place where the voice came from.

After walking for about 100 miles, I saw a human head exposed under the knuckle-like peak, and I could feel a sharp aura rushing into the sky when I got close, as if I wanted to cut my whole person apart.

stepped forward hard, the aura of the sky dissipated, and met the eyes like stars.

"That's right, it's you, Jin Chan, we'll meet again!"
