Chapter 77 – The Secret of the Great Calamity (II)

“Officer!”

Zhurai humbly nodded his head and came forward, assuming a docile posture and explaining:

“We’re going to Half Moon City for business, may I ask what’s up?”

The guard, carrying a spear, asked coldly:

“Where’s the road guide? Take it out!”

Road guide ……. Zhurai froze for a moment, Half Moon City was only forty miles away from this place, and there was no need for a road guide to travel to and from the city, and only when it was more than a hundred miles away did pedestrians and caravans need to show their road guides.

And the road signs are issued by the City Hall.

Zhurai’s merchant caravan was a disguise and could not get a road guide issued by the City Lord’s Office at all.

Seeing Zhurai’s silence, the gaze of the guard who stopped the road turned sharp, while the three guards on the side looked at him coldly.

Zhu Rai’s heart was in awe, and he looked back at his fellow disciples who showed nervousness, and humbly smiled:

“This, this is something I’ve never heard of …….. Why do you need a road guide to go to Half Moon City as well?”

He was a beggar by birth, a natural nodder, and ingratiating himself with humble gestures was an occupational skill.

Satisfied with Zhurai’s attitude, the Sharp-wielding guard explained:

“That’s the rule from above, don’t ask why.”

Because I don’t know.

His answer, on the contrary, relieved Zhurai, for he had just thought – Could it be that there is a traitor among us?

Report the Mahayana Buddhist migration to the City Hall.

Knowing that there are many Mahayana Buddhists, there are always those who do not want to migrate eastward, who do not want to leave the West themselves, and do not want to see others go, it is not impossible that under the distortion of the mind, they will report everyone.

Although the upper echelons of Mahayana Buddhism promised not to abandon the followers who remained in the West and encouraged those who did to continue their missionary work.

This appeased the believers to some extent.

But Zhu Lai is a beggar, used to seeing the ugliness of human nature, the first time to suspect that the teacher encountered betrayal.

Well, it looks like it’s something else, doesn’t it?

“Sir, can you do me a favor.” Zhu Lai took out a silver ingot from his pocket and quietly handed it to the guard.

“Asshole!”

The guards were furious and reprimanded:

“We are warriors loyal to the City Lord, and the orders of the City Lord’s Office, is our faith.”

Zhurai thought about it, endured the pain and touched out three more silver ingots, respectfully:

“Officer, look at ……..”

The guard thought for a moment and spoke in a deep voice:

“The Buddha said that the Buddha would not let those who believe in Him be troubled, and I think the City Lord is as well.”

He looked behind him to the three guards and asked:

“You guys are right.”

The three guards nodded with serious faces.

After dredging up the relationship, Zhurai breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to command:

“Depart!”

The caravan was able to get out of the city without any problems, and traveled slowly on the potholed official road outside the city.

The sun shone on them, and each face glowed as if they were heading for a new life.

When Mahayana Buddhism was banned in the West, they went to the Central Plains, where the land was fertile, to spread their faith.

At the same time, in all the major city-states and kingdoms of the West, there were similar groups leaving their homes where they had lived since childhood and heading for the wilderness, heading for their faith.

They are like a thin stream that converges toward the sea.

……….

Aranta.

Liuli Bodhisattva stood on the top of the mountain, overlooking the foot of the mountain densely crowded, the Western Region, but all the status and position of the people, almost all came.

The plain at the foot of the sacred mountain was staked out with a clear-cut set of tents.

“After the Battle of Shanhaiguan, my Buddhist Sect’s fortunes have been like cooking oil on fire, if we can fuse the Divine Distinction, the Buddha will be the strongest supreme being in the Nine States.”

A voice that was hard to distinguish between male and female voices came from behind him.

The young monk, wearing a robe and folding his hands, came walking in faith.

“Even without fusing Shenshu, the Buddha is still the most powerful superlative, as long as the Western Region’s qi is not damaged. In my opinion, the Buddha suppressed the head of Shenshu and thus slept for five hundred years, instead missing many opportunities.”

Liuli’s beautiful eyes were ethereal, her lips were plump and sensual, and her skin was fair and delicate, a far cry from the rough-complexioned Westerners.

Bodhisattva Guangxian sighed:

“That’s a half-step Martial God.”

What did the Buddha create the Zen-Martial Arts system for?

If one first becomes a Super Grade and then a half-step Martial God, then one is truly unrivaled in heaven and on earth.

It is only that the human race in the Central Plains has produced a Confucian Sage who has sealed all of the superpowers in the Nine States, completely disrupting the Buddha’s plans and forcing Him to find another way.

And then the birth of Shinshu, the uncontrollable “bilocation”, and then, in order to get the plan back on track, the Buddha split the body to seal Shinshu, originally intended to digest the head of Shinshu first ……..

“Half-step Martial Gods are immortal, and even if they are Super Grade, they can only be sealed and are difficult to kill.” Bodhisattva Guang Xian sighed again.

After a pause, he peered down alongside the magnificent Lurie, looking out over the plains at the immeasurably large number of devotees, and quirked a corner of his mouth:

“In any case, we are one step ahead of the Compassion God and the Witch God.

“By the way, I heard that Xu Qi’an went out to sea?”

Bodhisattva Liuli nodded slightly, ”Since he didn’t kill the Gala Tree, then the only opportunity left is to go out to sea. Unfortunately, that Ancient God-Devil had long ago devoured the overseas God-Devil descendants before him.

“This trip is doomed to be futile.”

Guangxian smiled as he looked eastward along the way:

“After the Dharma Assembly, we will swallow the Great Bong in one fell swoop.”

As the words fell, a mellifluous, high-pitched bell rang out from Aranta, a sound that echoed through the heavens and earth.

On the plains at the foot of the Arantha Mountain, one devotee came out of his tent and looked towards the holy mountain, and then, unanimously, they sat down in place.

Regardless of whether they were men or women, old or young, they all sat down on the ground, folding their hands together with a pious look.

“Dang!”

The ethereal and melodious sound of the bells echoed in the hearts of the believers and resounded in the ears of everyone who heard them, as if it could wash their hearts and bring about the truest touch of life.

The most devout faith in the Buddha.

Guang Xian and Liuli stopped talking nonsense and each sat down.

In the direction of the main hall, Garuda Tree sat cross-legged in the square, his voice accompanied by the sound of the bell, echoing in the ears of every devotee:

“Since the opening of the heavens and the creation of the earth, for seven hundred and twenty-three thousand three hundred and sixty-eight years, no one has become a Buddha. After the Buddha, for 3,491 years, no one has become a Buddha either, and the Buddha is the only, the only true Buddha in the three thousand worlds ………”

The believers listened in silence and prayed devoutly.

Gradually, the sound of the Garuda Tree turned into what seemed to be a seemingly chanting sound in their ears.

At first, they listened silently, then later, they unconsciously chanted along with the chanting.

Thus, a magnificent Brahma sound echoed between heaven and earth.

The sound of Brahma was unceasing, carrying an inexplicable power that tugged at the heart of every devotee in the Western Region, tugging at the hearts of this group of people who symbolized the upper class in the Western Region.

No one noticed that the majestic and tall Aranta, seemed to come to life, given life like the creature that it was.

……….

“The law is not passed on to the six ears, you wait a moment!”

Xu Qi’an twisted his head and swept a glance at the stout, tall, slightly frosty-maned Dragon Man, and the delicate, beautiful Queen Pearl at his side.

“You two get out of here first.”

He used divine thoughts to transmit his thoughts into the sea of consciousness of the two God-Devil descendants.

The Angry Wave Islander and the Sailor Queen glanced at each other, didn’t ask why, and obediently jumped into the sea, “plopping” twice, disappearing into the waves.

Xu Qi’an looked at the nine-tailed fox again.

The latter’s showy eyebrows went up and she glared at him fiercely.

Xu Qi’an then said:

“The Lord of the Land can stay, Overseer, she’s one of our own.”

The Supervisor was dawning on him:

“Oh, it’s become your confidante?”

Could it be that in your heart, I am a flirtatious and lustful person? I am talking about friendship, the friendship of birth and death ……… Xu Qi an felt that Supervisor Zheng must have some misunderstanding about him.

Nine-tailed Fox turned her head and spat.

Waiting for the Angry Wave Islander and the Sailor Queen to swim far away, Xu Qi’an propped up a qi barrier to isolate the spread of sound.

Then, he and the Nine-tailed Sky Fox lined up at the bow of the ship and looked at the Supervisor.

Without looking at them, the Supervisor Zheng beckoned and ingested the Pacific Sword into his hand, observing it as he did so:

“It’s going to take some time to digest that door.”

Xu Qi’an smoothly raised the doubts in his heart and said:

“Why do I see a knife!”

The Superintendent smiled and said:

“Because you’re a martial artist.”

What happened to Wu Fu, Wu Fu ate your family’s rice? Xu Qi’an didn’t have the good sense to say:

“Don’t sell me short, get it straight.”

After disliking the Supervisor’s Zheng, inspiration erupted in his heart:

“Is that what makes Wulf different from all systems?”

The supervisor was smiling and nodding:

“One of the reasons, I’ll tell you plainly later.”

Xu Qi’an then asked:

“That blade, that’s the gate you’re talking about, in my perception, it’s certainly divine, but it’s not enough to make gods and demons go crazy, right? Also, after incorporating it, how would the Taiping Blade change?”

The Supervisor was stroking the Pacific Sword and said:

“Possession of this blade qualifies you to be a Gatekeeper; it is the Gatekeeper’s weapon.

“You’re right, it does lose its most central ability now, because the second cataclysm is different from the first.”

Sure enough, I guessed correctly ……… Xu Qi an was about to ask again, when the nine tailed fox on the side took his tail and smacked him, and said angrily:

“Too much bullshit.”

She didn’t want to listen to Xu Qi’an’s nonsense, she only wanted to listen to Supervisor Zheng tell the secret of the great robbery.

Xu Qi’an immediately remained silent.

The Supervisor was sitting cross-legged, the Pacific Sword crossed in front of his knees, and slowly said:

“Before I tell the truth about the Great Tribulation, I want to ask you a question.

“What do you think, what is heaven and what is earth? What is heaven like, and what is earth like?”

A word to engage in philosophy, I only know what is filial piety, what is love ……… Xu Qi an sidestepped his head and looked at the nine tailed fox:

“The superintendent is testing you!”

………

PS: The next chapter is going to fill the pit, and after thinking about it for a long time, I decided to break it here first. Because to fill the pit to be coherent, can not break the chapter. This is the only way to make it interesting for you guys.

ps2: Recommended a book, Fairy Fox, by Wandering Toad. Quite an interesting book, I’ve read it.

But the title of this book always reminds me of the immortal gourd. If you are short of books, you can take a look at it.

Also, the beat writer should be done for the month.
