Chapter Seventy-One: Past Lives, Old People
The Zen staff fell heavily to the ground, and the golden Buddha power spread, and the original ferocious aura around it was instantly dispelled, and the original smell of blood in the air disappeared together.
The man was wearing a white monk's robe, and a string of bright red Buddhist beads hung on his chest, which was very conspicuous under the red and white.
He looked very young, as if he was in his early twenties. But the compassion and depth in his eyes are like an old man who has gone through the vicissitudes of half a life.
"Amitabha, Liu Daoyou, the little monk has come to retrieve the leftovers."
Xuan Shu only moved his mouth slightly, but his voice clearly reached everyone's ears, even the three Xie Zhengliu who were hiding in the shadows.
The three of them cowered in the corner at the moment and didn't dare to move, just like cubs who had strayed into a group of powerful demon beasts, for fear that a slight movement would attract the attention of others.
Especially Xie Zhengliu, he kept shrinking behind the other two, as if he wanted to hide himself completely between the two.
Zhuang Youqian and Yue Mingqiu didn't know what was wrong with her, but out of trust in their companions, they still subconsciously moved forward, trying to cover her whole person.
It wasn't until he couldn't see the face of the Buddha clearly that Xie Zhengliu breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just a small jade capital, how can it be full of her old friends.
Yes, not only did the previous Crying Mountain Ghost and Xie Zhengliu know each other, but even the young monk in front of him had a lot of friendship with her.
Even though the face of this Buddha was more than twice as young as Xie Zhengliu's memory, he listened to Liu Yuansu's call of "Xuanshu Buddha", and then looked at the familiar face of the other party.
Xie Zhengliu had to admit that this little bald man who suddenly stabilized the situation was the only friend she once had.
Don't ask why the friend of the Lord of the Demon Domain would be a Buddhist cultivator who exudes golden light, to be honest, Xie Zhengliu himself forgot about it.
She only remembered that this guy took the initiative to come to the door when she had just secured the position of the demon lord and made a name for herself in the cultivation realm, and said that he would cross her.
The two were together for hundreds of years before they slowly became friends.
It wasn't until Xie Zhengliu's cultivation couldn't be suppressed and began to prepare for the Flying Ascension Thunder Tribulation that Xuan Shu suddenly found her.
At that time, Xuanshu's face was extremely pale, and as soon as he saw her, he stuffed a round Buddha bead into her hand, saying that it was a good thing that could help her survive the catastrophe.
Xie Zhengliu naturally didn't think that a Buddhist cultivator's treasure could help herself, a demon who did a lot of evil, but she didn't refuse this friend's kindness.
It's just that no one expected that it was the last time the two of them saw each other, and after that, she became a ghost wandering the world, while the other party was in retreat in Daye Temple, and since then she has never wandered in the world again.
In the years since Xie Zhengliu was reborn, Daye Temple and Xuanshu have not appeared in the cultivation world for a long time. She originally thought that Xuanshu had gone to the three thousand like the rest of the high-ranking monks, or that his cultivation was too high and he couldn't ascend, so he continued to retreat.
I didn't expect to meet in such a situation today, and her old friend also changed the appearance of a kind-eyed old monk in the past, and his face returned to his youth.
Why is this, is there something that happened to Xuanshu that she doesn't know?
With these doubts in mind, Xie Zhengliu continued to read.
With the help of the Buddha, the magic weapon was instantly suppressed by the Buddha's power. The golden Buddha power quickly condensed into a talisman with the word "seal" written on it, wrapping the magic weapon that was floating in the air and trembling.
The sealed magic weapon lost its previous fierceness and obediently fell into the hands of Xuanshu.
When the Buddha turned over his hand and put it away, the people present silently withdrew their gaze that had been staring at the magic weapon.
As if he didn't notice the rest of the people's covetousness for this magic weapon, Xuan Shu showed a gentle smile towards Liu Yuansu: "Thank you Liu City Lord for helping the little monk for this great favor, I heard that someone broke into Yujing City tonight and took a group of monks with him, and it seems that he wants to ask the city lord for this bead." ”
"This is the fault of the little monk, so let the little monk help the lord of Liu City solve it."
Liu Yuansu was waiting for Xuanshu's words, and he immediately nodded and agreed: "If the Buddha is willing to make a move, it will naturally be excellent." I don't know what the Buddha plans to do, but do you need my help? ”
"No need, let the little monk solve it himself. In less than three days, the little monk will definitely bring people back safely. With that, Xuanshu turned around and walked out of the Liu family.
As for the three intruders who were sucked away by the magic weapon, Liu Yuansu directly ordered them to be escorted into the dungeon in the mansion, intending to wait until this matter was resolved, and then punish them according to the rules of the city.
But looking at the way they are now emaciated, I don't know if they will live until that time.
The guards of the Liu family cleaned the courtyard of Liu Yuansu again, and Liu Yuansu also came up with a new formation to cover the courtyard.
Before he could urge the formation, Xie Zhengliu and the three of them quickly left the Liu family and followed behind Xuanshu.
"Boss, what are we going to do with that Buddha? Didn't he already promise to help rescue the people, let's go back to the city, find Zhao Qingwu's location first, and then snatch the sword bones back. When the three of them followed behind Buddha Xiu, Zhuang Youqian was still thinking about Xie Zhengliu's sword bone.
Xie Zhengliu disagreed: "Compared to Zhao Qingwu, it is still more important for Xuanshu and Crying Mountain Ghosts." These two were once influential figures in the cultivation realm, not to mention that Xuan Shu still had a magic weapon in his hand. ”
"I want to know who is using the Wailing Mountain Ghost to snatch the magic weapon, if the other party is a monk, it is not a good thing for the cultivation realm. If the other party is a demon, it means that the demon's treasure magic weapon may have been lost a lot. ”
Xie Zhengliu talked about this, and the two naturally understood what she meant.
"If it's a monk snatching a magic weapon, it means that someone is colluding with the demons, and they also got a way to control the magic weapon from the demons, otherwise what are they looking for this thing for?" Zhuang Youqian analyzed in a low voice.
"If it's a demon, then you should find out who he is, and then tell the world that there is a powerful demon hiding in the cultivation realm." Yue Mingqiu said as he made a gesture of raising his sword to slash.
Xie Zhengliu was very satisfied with their cleverness, but she didn't forget to remind the two: "The last reason to keep up is that the Buddha in front of us glanced at us when he left earlier and motioned for us to follow. ”
Zhuang Youqian and Yue Mingqiu's eyes widened instantly, because they didn't feel the hint Xie Zhengliu said at all.
But when the two of them turned their heads to look over, the Buddha who was walking in front of them was looking at them with a smile at the moment, as if he was testifying to Xie Zhengliu's words.
