Volume 1 The World Chapter 5 I don't care about the past and afterlife, but hope for peace in the world

"Deng didn't want to win anything over his predecessors, he just wanted to tell his predecessors that the seniors thought about the poor way simply, and also thought about the Tao in the heart of the poor road. How can you have a lot of scruples about destroying demons and defending the Dao, why do you need to scruple a lot?"

The old Taoist priest just repeated what he said just now, but the two were the same words, but now Zhao Ji sounds very different, the previous one, it only makes people feel that he is a shameless person who has a big swollen face and is fat, and his meat is rotten and his mouth is not rotten. This latter time is so deafening that even the thousand-year-old demon can't refute the truthful words.

"Senior Zhao, I'm okay with this, right?"

At this time, the old Taoist priest's voice had begun to become smaller, and the excitement on his face had slowly receded, but there was a bit of pride in his words.

When Zhao Ji heard the old Taoist priest's question, although his face was expressionless, he would not fight with the dying Taoist priest, but replied lightly, "It's okay."

But is it more than acceptable?

"What my way contains is nothing more than saving people, and now I am about to die, but my way is not lonely, and it is long and far, I have nothing I can't let go, I just want to beg Mr. Zhao again, can I?"

Zhao Ji's dark color was still faint, but curiosity rose in his heart, and he didn't know if this Taoist priest asked for something before his death, or the name after his death, so he replied casually, "Yes."

The old Taoist priest's eyes seemed to be almost unable to open at this time, but he still said in a voice that was already a little hoarse, "The affairs of you and me will be cleaned up after my death, can you not implicate the rest of the people in this temple?"

Hearing these words for a while, even Han Chi couldn't help but burst into tears, the old Taoist priest was dying, and he didn't think about his life before and after, all he was worried about was "saving people".

With such a Dao heart, how can it not be a long-term word?

It's just that after the old Taoist priest finished speaking, he exhausted his last bit of strength, and the whole person fell backwards.

Listening to these words, the big demon Zhao Ji was a rare loss of mind, this was just a short breath, when he came back to his senses, only to find that the old Taoist priest had leaned back, so he reached out to grab it, just recognized his mana, missed that moment, and could only watch the old Taoist priest fall to the ground, but he couldn't catch it.

It's just that his outstretched hand didn't take it back, and the whole person was there, looking a little funny.

But no one laughed at this time.

It's just because what the old Taoist priest did just now is too shocking. is the big demon Zhao Ji, his heart is like iron stone, but he is unconsciously infected by what he did and said.

This is also the first time that Han Chi has come into contact with a kind of power called "Dao", which cannot be described in words, whether it is a thing, a thing, or just a feeling.

Perhaps the only person who can express the "Tao" should be like this old Taoist priest, who practices it personally, and practices it for decades.

Learn from my "way" by my own deeds.

It's just that Han Chi or the other people in this temple don't understand it yet.

Even Zhao Ji couldn't understand it.

Zhao Ji just looked at his hand, and he felt as if something was slipping away, but when he tasted it again, he found that there was actually nothing.

At this moment, the temple fell into a brief silence again, but this time the silence was different from the previous ones.

In fact, time is completely different from human beings for demon cultivators, in a long life, they have enough time to do something that they find a little interesting, even if they just look at the stars in the sky, they can also see many years, so demon cultivators are often more patient than humans.

It was just a short thought, but Zhao Ji found that he was starting to get impatient.

I wanted to turn away, but I felt as if something had not been done.

But he didn't expect a loud cry to instantly break the silence in the temple, perhaps because of the removal of the magic barrier, the child finally woke up from the nightmare and restored his original characteristics.

Hearing this cry, Zhao Ji suddenly blessed his heart, so he replied "but" to the air that was nothing.

As soon as this sentence came out, Zhao Ji felt that most of his troubles were gone.

Zhao Ji didn't know if this sentence was given back to the old Taoist priest whose vitality had disappeared, or to himself.

As a descendant of the Heavenly Demon, as one of the few great demons in this world, his cultivation is so profound, he is the top monk of the human race, and he does not dare to say that he will kill him.

The strength of his mind is that everything is hard to shake with the passage of time, so he will not feel that there will be anything wrong with his actions today, nor will he feel guilty or self-doubt because of the death of an old Taoist priest.

But Zhao Ji always felt that something was wrong, he was not wrong, so what was wrong?

This made Zhao Ji have the illusion of escaping from here for a while, but the big demon is a big demon after all, he suppressed his chaotic thoughts, and withdrew the prohibition on everyone in the temple with a wave of his hand.

Han Chi and the others spread out on the ground almost at the same time, and before Han Chi and Lao Zhao got up again, they found that Zhao Ji, the big demon, had come to the two of them.

How happy Han Chi and Lao Zhang were chatting with Zhao Ji just now, how apprehensive they were at this moment, this is a demon, the two of them really haven't dealt with each other, even if he himself says that he is reasonable, what can he do? Didn't he also say that he wanted to eat the heart and liver of the old Taoist priest raw?

Zhao Ji didn't care that Han Chi and the two of them had been in a cold sweat for a moment, so he just said to himself, "The two brothers and I hit it off at first sight, and now there is something I want to ask the two of you, I don't know what the two of you think?"

Han Chi and Lao Zhang naturally had nothing to do, and desperately expressed their orders as they were told.

Seeing the behavior of the two, Zhao Ji was not happy or angry at all, but continued, "My grudge with this old Taoist priest is a dead debt, but it is not easy to recognize him for burying his body in the wilderness, but there is something else to do, but I can't get out at this time, so I want to ask the two of you to help me return the body of the old Taoist, I don't know if I can go on this journey on behalf of a certain person?"

In fact, Zhao Ji made this request, which was really a bit difficult for Han and Zhang, you must know that the Xianlin Sect is about to recruit a new one, and if you miss it like this, you don't know how long you have to wait to find another opportunity.

It's just that in front of this big demon, how can there be room for bargaining, and the two of them don't need to make eye contact, so they respond to this matter in unison.

Through the conversation just now, Zhao Ji knew that these two people were proper people, and there should be nothing wrong with what should be done, and his identity was here, how could something go wrong?

But Han Chi, who had been carefully accompanying the smiling face, suddenly remembered something, but he didn't know if his brain was still muddy due to the influence of demonic thoughts, or if he was a little delirious from being frightened this night, so he said to Zhao Ji without thinking, "Sir, wait a moment."

It's just that as soon as this statement came out, Han Chi began to regret it, but when he saw Zhao Ji look at it again, he didn't dare not continue to say it, let alone find a perfunctory reason to deal with it, who knows if this big demon has the magic power to read people's minds.

So he could only say truthfully, "Can the gentleman give some silver taels?"

As soon as Han Chi said this, Zhao Ji didn't react, but he scared Lao Zhang and almost fell to the ground again.

Zhao Ji looked at Han Chi with some amusement, asking for some money for his own errands, it was not unacceptable for Zhao Ji, he must have said that he was a reasonable person to the outside world for thousands of years. Even if something doesn't go well, at least I'll ask for a reason, and if I don't come up, I'll fight to death.

But through the conversation just now, he had a little good impression of these two people, otherwise how could he give each of them a sip of the magic wine that he liked very much? As long as he knew that this magic wine was not very precious to him, it was a great blessing for these two ordinary people. With only one sip, it is impossible to become an immortal, but it cannot be said to be an exaggeration to eliminate all diseases and prolong life, and the preciousness of this magic wine can be seen.

Hearing that Han Chi asked for some money, although it was reasonable, it made Zhao Ji's favor towards the two of them drop sharply, so that he could withstand the great benefits, but now he still wants to be greedy for some small gains, which makes Zhao Ji, who was still a little irritable, even more unhappy.

Zhao Ji's eyes slowly turned cold, how could Han Chi not see it, but now there was no other way, so he could only stubbornly say, "This, these silver taels are not for the two of me, but just to send the Dao Chang Dharma Body back to their hometown, this Dharma Body is not good to be exposed to the wind and sun with me outside." ”

As soon as he spoke, Han Chi was still a little afraid, but when he really said it, Han Chi was not worried, anyway, it was better to stretch or shrink his neck, so it was better to be happy, so it was smooth when it came to the back.

"Originally, Mr. had an explanation, but he looked at the two of us, but we were really shy and shy, and we really couldn't scrape together the money to buy a coffin for the Taoist chief. So I wanted to ask my husband if he had any money, even if I borrowed it."

Hearing this, Zhao Ji felt happy again, thinking that these two people are also interesting, their conversation and knowledge are extraordinary, and their thoughts are also exquisite, if it is just like this, then it will not be able to enter Zhao Ji's eyes, but it is a meeting in Pingshui, and gathering and dispersing are all fate.

But after Han Chi knew that he was a big demon, he actually risked angering himself to ask for a coffin for this Taoist priest, which gave Zhao Ji a different feeling.

Zhao Ji knew in his heart that this Han Chi was not a fool, he knew the gains and losses, but he was still willing to take this risk, and this thought could also be said to have a somewhat different demeanor.

Han Chi naturally didn't know the changes in the heart of this big demon, but he was still worried in his heart, and he regretted his Meng Lang a little, but he felt that he should have been like this, more or less, what this old Taoist priest did affected Han Chi a little, so that Han Chi was also a little distracted when facing this big demon, but he was still scared, he just hoped that it would be good not to be eaten in one bite, and it was not unacceptable to be beaten half to death.

Dao didn't expect Zhao Ji to say or not to give, but asked Han Chi and the others, "It's easy to say this money, but there is a puzzle in my heart, and I want the two of you to give a certain answer."

This old Zhang was afraid that Han Chi was doing something, so he immediately rushed to ask, "I don't know what Mr. asked, the two of us naturally know everything, and we have endless words!"

Zhao Ji had the joking intention of continuing to scare the two of them, and asked with a grim face, "When did you two know that I was not an ordinary person, so you told me."

Just this sentence scared Han Chi and Lao Zhang half to death, this big demon's mind is really difficult to fathom, I really don't know which sentence is wrong and will be eaten in one bite.
