Chapter 35: The Bodhisattva

"Boss, this is the conclusion that our astronomers have come to after probing, lack of resources and backward civilization will be classified as second-class low-level, but you should be glad that because of the words second-class low-level, your hometown has been spared a disaster." Long said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Mo Wen asked angrily.

"About 30 million years ago, our civilization entered a period of colonial plunder, they frantically seized extraterrestrial resources, and controlled all life everywhere they went. It is the slaughter that endangers us, and the captivity that is beneficial to us, we have the final say on their life and death, and we have the final say on the birth of more and less children, this is called planning and breeding, hehe, at that time, the first-class, high-school, low-level areas, and the second-class high-end areas, were the first objects of our colonization, at that time, your civilization should have just sprouted, your ancestors may still be a group of live monkeys, ha, Seeing Mo Wen's gloomy face, Long wisely chose to shut up.

"You mean, I still have to thank you for raising your noble hand?" asked Mo Wen through gritted teeth.

"No," the dragon smiled weakly, "We're just opportunistic, and we just missed the previous generation of civilization of yours, boss, otherwise how can we be arrogant, don't you say?"

"That's right. Mo Wen said with a snort.

"However, the colonial plunder only lasted for more than three hundred years, we were randomly caught in the whirlpool of war, and the colonizers launched a crazy resistance movement, we resisted to the death, the expulsion war of the Heluo system, the stalemate of the Salou system, and the defense of the planet Salo, the elites of both sides of the three wars were exhausted, and the economy, culture and technology also fell into a trough, and then ushered in a period of peaceful development, which has continued to this day。 The dragon laughed.

"Damn, you guys are back to basics. ”

Mo Wen said sourly, and at the same time thought about a question in his heart, if it is really like what the dragon said, there was also a high civilization on the earth, then how did they destroy it, how strong should they be, is the dragon's hometown now also come to that point, is it related to the catastrophe of heaven and earth?

"Who says it's not," the dragon sighed and said, "Since we touched the threshold of God, we no longer dare to be as arrogant as before, and those politicians have also begun to preach morality and learn to be humble, just like the Heluo galaxy between the three camps, where resources are abundant and cheap labor is abundant, the three camps used to earn their heads for it, and now no one dares to ask for it, you let me and I let him, and finally returned to our Salou system, but later, the members of our galaxy federation, so they almost hanged themselves collectively." ”

"Why is this happening?"

"Our great wise man has discovered the secret of the destruction of the next civilization. The dragon said mysteriously.

"What's the secret?" Mo asked, his heart moved.

The threshold of God is the beginning of our destruction, and the day when we truly understand God is the time of our destruction. ”

"It won't be such an exaggeration, can God still destroy you?" Mo said in disbelief.

"Who else but God can destroy us?" said the dragon seriously, "If there really exists a civilization in your hometown that is more prosperous than us, their technology and wisdom are enough to compare with the gods, what have they destroyed for?"

Faced with the dragon's question, Mo Wen was speechless for a while, and his heart suddenly remembered the prophecy that Filsa once said, whether God abandoned us, or we rebelled against God.

"Two Shangguan, we have arrived. ”

The black and white impermanence in front of him stood still, and Bai Wuchang said with a smile: "Two Shangguan, we can only send you here, and the front is where the Black Flame Mountain is located." ”

Mo asked and arched his hand: "There are two generals in this way." ”

"Shangguan is polite, and he is leaving. Black and white impermanence bowed and retreated.

Mo Wen raised his head and looked around, only to see that there was a small hill not far away, not yet the hill that he encountered when he came, but there was a black flame on the hill, the whole mountain seemed to be poured with fire oil, and the surrounding area was wrapped in flames as high as one person high, the breeze blew, the black flames trembled, and under a closer look, it turned out to be trees, but the tree had no trunk, it was full of flame-like leaves, and it really looked like fire at first glance.

"There's life here. The dragon said in surprise, "Didn't you say that there is no life in the underworld?"

"I don't know, it seems that the magic power of this Jizo King Bodhisattva is really profound, and he actually created such a place. Mo Wen shook his head and said, "Let's go." ”

The dragon nodded, following in Mo Wen's footsteps.

As soon as I approached, a gust of mountain wind blew, with some spring-like fragrance, and the black leaves also swayed with the wind, as if to welcome the arrival of guests, and a deep path in the depths of the jungle was revealed, but it always gave people a strange sense of fear.

"There's life, Boss, look at this leaf, uh"

The dragon stretched out his hand to pluck a leaf, and before he could look closely, he saw that the leaf had left the branch, and in an instant it had turned into a wisp of ash and dissipated into the air.

"How so?" said the dragon, looking at the leaves on the side of the road.

Mo Wen stretched out his hand and touched the leaf, feeling no different from the leaves in the human world, with a little coolness, some still hanging a little dew, there was no illusory feeling, but as soon as the leaf was picked, the leaf would automatically dissipate as smoke.

"It seems that something is supporting them, and without this support, their life will dissipate. Mo Wen said lightly.

"That's right, hehe"

There was a laugh from the depths of the path, Mo Wen looked around, and saw that the man was dressed in a white robe, his hair was as long as a willow branch, and his face was pale without a trace of blood, and the most important thing was that his face was covered with scars, to be exact, like a doll that had just been sewn together with pieces of cloth.

"You," Mo asked, pointing at the man in disbelief, "are you uncle?"

Zhou Wangzu smiled miserably, nodded and said, "It's me." ”

"It's really you," Mo asked, with a smile on his face, "we all thought you were dead." ”

"I was already dead, even the primordial infant was torn apart, it was the Bodhisattva who saved me, sewed the remnants of my primordial infant together, and gave me the power of new life, so that I could stand here. Zhou Wangzu smiled kindly, and he was satisfied to see that the son of his former friend was so accomplished and so affectionate and righteous.

"The Bodhisattva you're talking about is the Jizo King Bodhisattva?"

Zhou Wangzu nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

"Then uncle, do you know what the Bodhisattva came to us for?" Mo Wen was very puzzled, if it was just for the affairs of the Zhou Wang clan, then why did the dragon come here for?

"I don't know the way of this, I guess the Bodhisattva has some purpose, I'm just responsible for taking you there. Zhou Wangzu said with a smile.

"Whatever, Zhilu said that you are not dead, aunt and they will be very happy, go back with me then," Mo Wen smiled and pulled the dragon and said, "This is my brother Long, Long, this is my uncle." ”

The dragon fiddled with the pig's nose on his face and said with a smile: "Hello uncle." ”

Zhou Wangzu nodded and smiled: "Xiao Q, although I am now reborn, but the past is gone, the Bodhisattva ordered me to be the messenger of the underworld, in charge of the wandering spirits in the world, under the command of Heavenly Master Zhong Kui, I can't go back to the world with you." ”

Mo Wen frowned: "What is it for? Could it be that the Bodhisattva threatens you?"

"Hurry up and stop," Zhou Wangzu's face changed, and he said, "The Bodhisattva is a great compassion, how could he threaten me, I voluntarily stayed, after experiencing the cycle of life and death, I don't want to pick up the mundane things anymore, you go back and tell your aunt, as well as Yan'er and Tianling, just let me die." ”

"Are you really willing to let go of everything?" asked Mo in disbelief.

"What is reluctance, what is letting go, everything is fleeting, besides, my body in the world has been destroyed, even if I go back, I am a lonely soul to cultivate, God's will is like this, why should I force it, I just hope to cultivate more in the underworld, pray for the blessing of my family, so enough. ”

Yes, it seems that there is another faithful believer in the Buddha world, Mo Wen can only smile bitterly, and he is no longer reluctant, knowing that the Zhou Wang clan is not dead, no matter what the harvest of this trip is, at least it can be handed over.

Under the leadership of the Zhou Wang clan, Mo Wen and Long walked all the way along the mountain road, the trees on the mountain became denser and denser, higher and higher, and when they reached the mountainside, a two-person high stone cave appeared in front of them, without the slightest decoration, just like the hiding place of the original residents, the entrance of the cave crouched a big dog more than five meters long, the whole body white hair between the glow flowing, the biggest feature is that there is a horn on the forehead of the dog, like a crescent moon is extremely sharp.

"Hey, why did this dog have a banana stuck in its head?" the dragon asked curiously.

Zhou Wangzu smiled bitterly: "This is the Bodhisattva's mount, called Di Ting, also known as the unicorn, it is a divine object, and Shangguan must not make fun of it." ”

According to the dragon's temper, he naturally didn't take Zhou Wang's words to heart, but Zhou Wangzu was Mo Wen's uncle, and he couldn't defend himself, so he could only smile awkwardly, tilt his head to the side, and stare at the white-haired dog in a daze.

Zhou Wangzu shook his head and smiled, got up and stood aside: "The two Shangguan, please, the Bodhisattva is waiting for the two of you in the cave." ”

Mo Wen sighed in his heart, he could only arch his hand without speaking, and walked in first, and the dragon also learned from Mo Wen's way and hurriedly followed.

The inside of the cave is slightly different from the outside of the cave, just because the cave is inlaid with some precious stones, shining on the dark mountain stones, and the cave is brightly lit, the cave is not deep, Mo Wen and the two walked less than a hundred steps, and they arrived at a large hall.

The two couldn't help but be surprised, it turned out that this stone cave was so grand, it seemed that the entire Black Flame Mountain had been hollowed out, and only a stone wall of less than 100 meters was left to support the entire Black Flame Mountain.

After going down a section of steps, and going up another section of steps, Mo Wen saw a lotus flower carved from black stone, and there was a person sitting on the lotus, it turned out to be a woman, but the woman's appearance was very vague, Mo Wen dared to guarantee that even if he was lying on her face, he couldn't see it clearly, and he didn't know how he could feel like this.

"I'm damn it, how can it be you. The dragon said in surprise, pointing to the woman in front of him.
