Volume II: On the March 82. Hell-robbing ghosts and immortals
What Ling Shuang said was almost to the point. Seeing her reaction like this, Sima Wenzhi was worried about angering her, so he hurriedly stopped.
"If you want to cultivate to the ghosts and immortals, you must go through the test of the earth tribulation. Although the earth tribulation is not as dangerous as the heavenly tribulation, it is also extremely dangerous. Seeing Sima Wenzhi's cautious expression, Ling Shuang's mood improved, and he told the truth again.
"What is the Earth Tribulation?" Ling Shuang finished speaking, and said no more. Sima asked after waiting for a while, and then asked.
"Shizu didn't explain, and I don't know. I just said that after the cultivation arrived, I would naturally feel it. Ling Shuang replied, unclear.
After Sima asked, he stopped talking. In the Great Cave Sutra, there is not much record of this. Ling Shuang knew, and he also guessed at this time, most of the content should be Di Kuizi to listen to her.
Within the sect, those who are teachers and elders are the root of preaching and teaching and solving doubts. Most of the things that Ling Shuang told Sima to ask were from Di Kuizi, which reminded him of Guangming Zi and Tian Chengzi.
For him, both of them are "half-masters". Now that Guangmingzi is no longer in the mountains, when you have doubts, you should go to Tianchengzi to solve your doubts.
But in his heart, he resisted a lot.
In Sima Wen's heart, if he is close to Tianchengzi, although he will get more points, he will leave after all, and he will owe more to Tianchengzi. Between hoping for more and not wanting to be indebted, he pondered repeatedly, and many times it was difficult to choose.
"Under the catastrophe, although it is dangerous, there is no need to worry too much. According to Shizu, the probability is only seven or eight out of ten. When Sima asked to think about it, Ling Shuang thought that he was worried about the future, and opened his mouth to be relieved.
"Fortunately, seventy or eighty percent of the Divine and Human Realm cultivators can pass the earth tribulation, which is also a high chance. After hearing this, Sima's mood improved.
"But seven or eight times out of ten. What Ling Shuang said before did not explain, and when she heard Sima ask, she would be mistaken, so she hurriedly opened her mouth to correct it.
The mood of "forehead ......" that had just improved sank again.
The two of them got what they wanted, and soon after, Ling Shuang got up and left, but Sima asked him and did not send him away.
Almost at the same time as Ling Shuang left, in the Shangqing Peak, Xuan Li hurriedly walked into Tianchengzi's residence, as if he had something to tell.
"Have you ever gotten any news?" After seeing Xuanli's arrival, he didn't say anything long-winded and asked questions directly.
"Back to the main ancestor, there is news. A hundred miles north of Qingxuan Mountain, something did happen. "Xuanli doesn't procrastinate, and directly states what he has gained.
"What's the matter?" asked Tian Chengzi again.
"In several villages there, people have often disappeared suddenly in recent days, and no one is alive or dead. At first, it was thought that these people were trying to avoid military service and taxes, but it was not for these reasons that there were single women and children among the missing people. What's more......" Xuan Li responded again, and when he said the back, there was some hesitation in his words.
"Huh?" After hearing this, Tian Chengzi had a premonition in his heart, and his brows began to condense when he spoke.
"In recent days, not only have people been lost. Several new graves in the fields outside the village have also been excavated, and the corpses inside are nowhere to be found. When Xuan Li spoke, an unbelievable expression appeared on his face.
"It's just a new grave, no old grave?" Tian Chengzi guessed and opened his mouth to confirm.
"A few years ago, the sect had some disciples pretend to be refugees and settle down in the surrounding villages. This time the news was passed back by one of them. On that day, he also went to the scene with the villagers to see the new graves that were excavated within a month. Xuanli knew what Tian Chengzi was asking, and opened his mouth to respond positively.
"Master, but the rebirth of the demon clan?" After responding, Xuanli said the guess in his heart and asked Tianchengzi for confirmation.
"Yes or may not. The demon clan likes to eat the living, and they don't have much interest in the deceased. "Xuanli asked, Tianchengzi couldn't be sure.
"Then how to deal with it?" Xuan Li listened to and asked for the corresponding strategy in the future.
"Whether it's the demon clan or anything else, you need to send someone to check it out. You go and send a few disciples to go there and find out the details. Tian Chengzi opened his mouth and commanded.
"Yes. ”
"If you can't make a decision, you can send it directly to me. Tian Chengzi opened his mouth and instructed.
"Yes. ”
"If something happens suddenly, the disciples on the scene can act arbitrarily. Tian Chengzi did not pause and instructed again.
"Yes. ”
After the instruction, Tian Chengzi stopped talking. Xuanli waited for a moment, opened his mouth to respond, then turned to leave, and went to set up.
"Among the disciples of the new Divine Human Realm, who hasn't gone down the mountain to practice?" When Xuanli was about to walk out of the house, Tian Chengzi remembered something, opened his mouth to stop him, and then asked.
"Uncle Earth Spirit and Senior Nephew Huang Ling. Xuanli turned around and replied respectfully.
"Among the disciples dispatched, there should be a position for Huang Ling, go. After the command, Tian Chengzi turned around and turned his back to Xuanli.
After Ling Shuang left, Sima Wenzhiwu thought to himself for a while. After that, my heart is no longer entangled. At this time, he had just set foot in the realm of gods and men, and although he was worried about the matter of the earth tribulation, he was far away. There is a long way to go, and there is a lot of time to worry about, so there is no need to rush for a while.
Although long-term worries can be put aside, near-term worries cannot be delayed. There are two things that need to be prepared in advance.
One thing is the interpretation of the realm of gods and men in the two collections of the Great Cave True Scripture and the Great Dao True Scripture. What Ling Shuang said just now was only the principle of practicing the law, and Di Kuizi was worried that she would be greedy and rash, so he only told the initial essence.
The things that Sima asked were the detailed rules in the two scriptures about the practice of the Dharma by monks in the realm of gods and men, and they should be all the essentials.
There was nothing Ling Shuang could do about it. Although Di Kuizi knew, out of the same concern about Ling Shuang, he might not be willing to tell him. Who else knows and who to ask is up to some consideration.
After deliberation, there was a suitable candidate, but he was still reluctant to ask. It can only be considered again, and it cannot be put on hold and must be put on hold for the time being.
The other is about leaving the Qingxuan Mountain Gate and going to the worldly experience.
Within the sect, anyone can leave the mountain to practice, and the elders in the sect can decide, but they all need to be approved by the chief Tianchengzi.
Sima asked about the identity of the sect, only a few people in the Shangqing Sect knew, and Tianchengzi was one of them. If he rashly went to Shangqing Peak at this time and asked to go to the world, he would most likely be refused. He needed to think of a reason to make Tianchengzi compromise.
What Sima Wenzhi wanted to do was related to national hatred and his own family hatred, which was why he was in a hurry to obtain all the essence of cultivation in the realm of gods and men. This time he will not return in a short period of time, or even be unable to return.
I thought about it for a long time, until the time was approaching, and there was no final result. Sima asked about the mood that was no longer entangled before, and became entangled again.
After his mood stirred again, it was not long before footsteps sounded outside the house, and from far and near, someone was walking towards his dwelling.
