In the face of the fire monkey's persuasion, the room fire pig said coldly: "Soul contract?

The fire monkey restrained his flattering smile and snorted coldly, "Except for these fireflies, are you sure I don't have the means to press the bottom of the box?"

Not to be outdone: "Do you think this is my real strength?"

The two sides fell into a stalemate, and a group of strange beasts and spirit beasts gathered in the gray forest, only daring to watch from a distance, not daring to come, countless glowing eyes, like lights in the gray forest.

After a while, the room fire pig sighed and said: "This soul contract, it's not that I don't want to sign it with you, it's just that I have already signed it with someone once, and I don't want to sign this contract again in this life." ”

The fire monkey wondered, "It's already signed, where is the other one?"

"He was my former companion, well, I should say that he was a companion, but now he is dead." ”

The fire monkey said, "Dead?"

Room Fire Pig said: "Well, it's dead. This secret realm is composed of several vast special Buddha domains, do you think that just by virtue of these Buddha domains, you can give birth to heaven and earth divine beasts like me? If I cultivate to become a god, my status is not lower than that of you to cultivate to become a Buddha!

"I, and even the more powerful divine beasts in this secret realm, were brought in by others, the Xuanying Leopard at the door knows, it often comes in to play, isn't it also brought to Nanzong Temple by others?

"I've met it a few times, and it can understand people's words, but it doesn't bother to talk to ordinary people, and it likes to see how stupid people try to talk to it, but it doesn't like this gray secret place, so it stays at the door. ”

The fire monkey was amazed when he heard it, but he didn't expect that the spirit beasts and divine beasts also had their own worlds.

But then he remembered the appearance of the Xuanying Leopard spitting at him, but he didn't expect it to understand his words, and let him make a fool of himself in public, this conscienceless brute!

The Flame Pig continued: "I was originally born in a dense mountain forest in the Great Martial Kingdom of the outside world, when I was young, I was accidentally discovered by a group of hunters, and at that time my mind was not fully opened, and my body was not as strong as it is now.

"They chased me after me, carrying knives and forks, crossbows, and hounds, and pursued me all over the mountains, and when I was almost killed, I was rescued by a monk who was practicing in the mountains and forests, and he persuaded the hunters to return and released me back to the mountains. ”

But its tone suddenly changed, and he said hatefully: "However, I didn't expect those Orions to be mad, maybe they saw the golden fur and flame imprint on my body, and felt that it was worth a lot, and vowed to arrest it, and actually set a fire in the mountains and forests, and I saw such a big fire for the first time, the fire all over the mountains, burning all the trees and weeds, and even burning the stones on the mountain red, I was very frightened, and the monks kept running away." ”

The fire monkey interjected and asked, "Isn't that monk a cultivator?

The room fire pig said coldly: "Is a cultivator omnipotent? Such a big mountain fire, not to mention that he was still a cultivator of the Hinayana realm at that time, even if he was in the Jade Realm realm, the overwhelming mountain fire, even if he had supernatural powers, he couldn't protect it for too long." If I hadn't stumbled upon the innate supernatural ability that I could eat and store fire here, I am afraid that I would have been caught by those hunters or burned to black coals. ”

It looked up at the sky and said lightly, "Since then, I have no good intentions towards people, except for that monk. Therefore, after discovering my talent, I hid it from the monks, returned to the village where the hunter was, and burned it to the ground, and those people died and wounded, and it was a hell of fire refining.

But when the monk arrived, he was so grieved that he buried the dead with his own hands, recited the Sutras of the Past Death, and treated the wounded ones one by one, and we didn't leave there until half a year later. ”

The room fire pig looked confused, and recalled: "In that half a year, some villagers still wanted to hunt me by any means because of hatred and desire, and every time I avoided it, I wanted to set fire to them and burn them to death, but they were all discovered and stopped by the monks. He also taught me a lot of Buddhist teachings and told me to do good deeds and accumulate virtue in order to transcend the suffering of samsara.

"In his eyes, I was not a simple animal, and he treated me as a companion. Half a year later we left there, and I never left him again. ”

The fire monkey was aroused and said hurriedly, "What happened later?"

Room Fire Pig glanced at him, and fell into memories again: "Later, he returned to the Nanzong Temple, at that time I had not started to cultivate, but I was growing up with talent, so he specially practiced a magic called spiritual magic or something, and was able to communicate with me, so he taught me the method of Buddhist cultivation, and later I practiced the exercises with him, and the speed was very fast." Soon, he went through the first monk tribulation and understood more Buddhist principles, so he also taught me these Buddhist teachings, and I was able to practice to this day. ”

The fire monkey said, "Then how did he die?"

The fire pig instantly became imposing, pressing the fire monkey back two steps, it glared at the fire eyes, and said indignantly: "It's not because you stupid humans have started a fight for no reason, and you have started a big melee in some place. I rushed into the enemy line with him, and in an instant we were separated. The magic weapon of the spirit weapon in the sky, the ubiquitous supernatural power, I couldn't protect him, he didn't have the thick and tough fur like me, and finally died inexplicably in that melee. ”

The room fire pig sighed, looking sad: "After the melee, I finally found him in the pile of corpses, he opened his eyes, looked at the bloody smoke-filled sky, and held a gold tooth I gave him, I think, he was still thinking about me when he died, at that moment, I really understood the impermanence of this world, and the impermanence in Buddhism is faintly in harmony, but it is even more sad and desolate." ”

"Since I came back, I have no intention of returning to the human world, and I am bored to stay in Lingyun Mountain all the time, mainly because some fart elders are worried that I will hurt people. Hmph, do I have to wait until after he dies if I know he's going to die? If I know he's going to die, I'm going to protect him no matter how many people I kill!

The fire monkey nodded in comfort.

The room fire pig ignored him and continued: "It's a pity that people can't be resurrected after death, this is the avenue of heaven and earth in this world, and no one can change it. Disheartened, I avoided everyone in Nanzong Temple, said hello to the Xuanying Leopard, and hid in this secret realm. ”

The fire pig stopped talking, the fire monkey didn't know what to say, and the forest was silent, silent.

After a while, the fire monkey said solemnly: "Brother Pig, to speak from the heart, I am also very uncomfortable and sympathetic to you, but I want to improve my cultivation, not for myself." Half of it is for the little junior brother, not to hold him back, but also to protect him at a critical moment, which is the same as when you protect that monk.

"The other half is for the kind of war you said not to happen again, so that everyone can have a good heart, and no longer fight for some unnecessary things, some things that Buddhism calls 'emptiness', and even sacrifice their lives and lives.

"This is also a small effort I have made for the purification of sentient beings, I think, when the monk died, in addition to thinking of you, other unfulfilled wishes may be similar to what I thought!"

The room fire pig lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "You also practice spirit summoning arts, right? I really can't sign a soul contract with you, it will go against my heart, but I can give you another thing: my natal rune." ”

The fire monkey looked at it suspiciously: "Natal rune?"

Room Fire Pig said: "This natal rune is what I have cultivated, and it has condensed all my innate characteristics and cultivation experience, this was originally a gift that I was ready to give him, but I didn't expect that I would never have a chance."

"Because I have a deep understanding of the spirit summoning technique, this natal rune is also cultivated according to the supernatural power of the spirit summoning technique, as long as you integrate this natal rune into the divine soul, the divine soul can condense the exact same rune according to this rune.

"From now on, as long as you use the spirit summoning technique to condense this rune, you can summon a part of my divine soul, and my divine soul will condense my body, as if my main body appeared. ”

"In addition, this rune is integrated into your divine soul, and it will continue to cultivate as your own cultivation grows, and eventually the divine soul you summon can even surpass me now.

"Now that I give it to you, the cultivation experience and Dharma enlightenment in this rune will directly affect you, and it will give you great benefits for your cultivation. This natal rune, after all, is the result of my life's research.

"In my opinion, the soul contract is just an outdated old trick, and the cultivation method of natal rune fusion in the spirit summoning technique is the essence of this supernatural power, and if you cultivate this supernatural power in the future, you must study this method further, and there will definitely be greater progress and breakthroughs!"

As he spoke, the room fire pig opened its huge mouth and spit out an extremely complex rune from its mouth, which slowly shrunk and suddenly burrowed into the eyes of the fire monkey.

The fire monkey closed his eyes and moved the rune to the group of divine souls in the divine court, slowly trying to fuse them.

After a long time, the fire monkey's body suddenly trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes, he felt the joy, fear, sorrow, sorrow, sorrow, anger, and desolation that emerged from this rune, and then it was empty, as if the heavy ink gradually faded its color, and became as plain as water to die and live, and became the impermanence of the five aggregates, and drilled into the fire monkey's soul one by one.

At this moment, the fire monkey, who realized the abundant and profound Buddha's teachings, burst into tears on his face: "Big brother, you are really a maverick, sentimental and extremely intelligent, pig!"

At the same moment, at the entrance to the secret realm.

One of the guardian elders turned to Elder Fa again and said, "Senior Brother, there is another disciple in the secret realm who has broken through the Jade Realm!"
