Without a heroic spirit, I can only end it myself.

Due to frequent major cases, Buddhism has been extremely low-key in recent years and has become increasingly cautious in its actions.

However, even if a demon puts on human skin and learns human language, it will take a long time to truly integrate into the world.

There are tens of thousands of Buddhist temples in the world of Daluo, and there are countless demonic monks, so there will always be some omissions.

Not to mention, Buddhism has been strong for thousands of years. Even under high pressure, it can quickly reverse the trend, and the many murderous crimes it has committed will not disappear.

There are still often ferrymen who detect the fog and rescue the victims.

As a result, the number of people in the organization has steadily increased. After it exceeded a hundred, it gradually developed to a thousand people.

The first generation of ferryers also gradually grew up and made their own names in the world.

"Speaking of which, Brother Li has remarried..."

A few years ago, Jiang He received an invitation from Painter Li, inviting him to attend the wedding——

The other half who married him turned out to be the washerwoman on the bank of the Yin River in the past.

According to the letter, after they became ferrymen, they traveled together for some reason and went through many trials and tribulations together, recognizing and supporting each other.

After decades, they finally came together.

Looking back on the past, they have transformed and are no longer the same selves they once were, and they no longer regard each other as a substitute for the dead.

To be honest, Jiang He received letters from the two of them in the past ten or twenty years, and learned that they always traveled together as a team, and the letters mostly expressed praise and appreciation for each other...

At that time, I felt something was coming.

It wasn't much of a surprise when I received the invitation.

This man has passed away, immersed in the past, and remained chaste for half his life. Such infatuation is admirable.

But being able to get over grief and usher in a new life will also make those close to you feel happy.

As a good friend and preacher, Jiang He happily attended the banquet and gave his blessings.

Just when it was time to go to the banquet.

Jiang He suddenly realized that Painter Li was a little old.

In order to seek a breakthrough in painting, he resolutely chose to leave everything behind, follow Jiang He, and travel around the world. He was already in his thirties.

After experiencing Fushan, Yinjiang, etc., I was able to pass on the wonderful Dharma and embark on the path of spiritual practice.

However, cultivation also involves understanding and qualifications.

Painter Li just started practicing when he was in his thirties, and his progress was far inferior to that of Gu Yuerong, Chen Xianglan and others. By the time he remarried, he could only reach the second level.

By that time, nearly forty years had passed.

He is already over seventy years old. Even with the blessing of cultivation, the corners of his eyes still have some traces of age, and there is a bit of whiteness in his hair.

Compared with Gu Yuerong, who came to the banquet with him and had reached the peak of the fourth level, the latter's face did not change at all, but his temperament became more mature.

"Follow this trend."

"Even if Painter Li embarks on the path of spiritual practice, he can only live another seventy or eighty years at most, and his lifespan should be around one hundred, sixty or seventy."

Jiang He sighed and shook his head.

In the past two hundred years, he has lived nearly twice as long as an ordinary person.

But for miraculous spiritual beasts, it is only a relatively short period of time in a long life.

It’s not just Painter Li.

Jiang Heruo wants to live thousands of years later, during the chaos of hundreds of sects destroying Buddhism, and learn how to make a demon mirror...

Even Gu Yuerong, the most talented among the ferrymen, would not be able to follow him through such a long journey.

Those familiar faces will eventually disappear in the long river of time.

This is also the reason why Jiang He was not very keen on life-extending methods in many past simulations, and rarely lived until the end of his normal life span, and often ended up being fully upgraded in the end——

Living to the end means parting again and again.

He is more "selfish" and does not want to experience so many partings. He just wants to take the first step.

Anyway, when I open my eyes again, I return to the world of Yuling, and I can reunite with my old friends in the form of heroic spirits, as if I have never left.

"Living for thousands of years is the last option without any other options."

"I can't place all my hopes on the future. I have to find a way to create a demon mirror that can detect the true nature of the demon monk."

"The sooner the problem is solved, the better."

If you want to create a mirror that reflects demons, you must study the mirror of the mind.

The latter is an important weapon of the imperial court. With Jiang He's current strength and status, it is enough to simply experience it.

It is definitely impossible to hold it in your hands and play with it for study.

Jiang He held back his thoughts for the time being and continued to practice.

The sixth level doesn't work, what about the seventh and eighth levels?

After having the strength to talk to Luo Di on an equal footing, he should not be rejected if he proposes to study the Mind-Appraisal Mirror.

While Jiang He was struggling, he once again received a letter from Gu Yuerong asking for help.

It’s not that her or the Gu family’s lives are in danger this time——

She was investigating a temple case in Manzhou, and with the help of city officials, she rescued some people who were in danger of being persecuted.

These people had just escaped death and were still frightened. Naturally, they had no objections to the follow-up arrangements of their saviors.

There was only one eight-year-old child who seemed to have been blinded by lard.

Even if you see the ghosts in Buddhist temples, even if you see the ugliness in the dark, even if you escape death...

He has not changed his mind towards the Buddha, and wants to become a monk and learn the Dharma.

Gu Yuerong has saved countless people over the years. Even if he doesn't know the truth, he understands that today's Buddhism is no longer the world-saving Buddhist sect in myths and legends. It is rotten from top to bottom.

If this kid wants to become a monk, isn't he going to jump into a pit of fire?

Regardless of whether the Buddhist temple is really willing to take him in, he will either die in vain or be corrupted by the monks and fall into evil ways.

What's more, let go of your attachment to the Buddha.

Although the child is only eight years old, he seems to be born with precocious wisdom. His speech and behavior are mature and polite, which makes people feel good.

Gu Yuerong didn't want to see him jump into the fire pit.

After confirming that he was not deceived by the magic, he tried to dissuade him several times in an attempt to change his mind of worshiping the Buddha.

Don’t you want to learn Buddhism?

She can also find a way to find a wonderful method and teach it to him, which is no worse than any Buddhist method!

However, after Gu Yuerong's persuasion, the child's heart to worship Buddha not only did not waver, but became even firmer.

There was nothing she could do but write to her husband asking for help.

With my husband's talking skills, it should be easy to persuade this child to give up Buddhism.

After reading the letter, Jiang He also became a little curious.

So he wrote back a letter and set off for Manzhou.

…

Manzhou, a teahouse.

The storyteller patted Xingmu, and there was a "pop" sound, and he was very happy.

"...'Ah, yeah, I'm going to die!' It was too late to say, but then, the Shocking Gun saw the flaw, shouted loudly, and performed the famous stunt!"

"But I never thought that Tianshuang's sword skills are superior. He has already seen through the unique skills of the Shocking Gun and deliberately sold out his flaws..."

"A sword of frost, the sky is filled with snow, the shock gun is defeated by hatred..."

"After this battle, Tianshuang Sword Chen Xianglan officially ranked seventeenth on the Earth Ranking..."

In the teahouse, it was not until the storyteller raised his cup to sip the tea that the listeners dared to take a breath. They were talking a lot, marveling at the power of the Sky Frost Sword, and guessing that her next attack would be due to a challenge, or something else——

Ever since the imperial court announced the Three Rankings of Heaven, Earth and People to rank the monks of various sects, the news spread quickly throughout the world.

Comparing combat power is a topic that people talk about no matter in any era, and now it has become the signature of teahouse storytellers.

The battles between monks, the rise and fall of rankings on the list.

Even if it is impossible for ordinary people to go and watch the battle, just listening to the scholar's narration is still very enjoyable.

Especially after the storytelling, when the tea guests chatted and argued about the strengths of different monks, the pleasure of pointing out the country was even more fascinating.

This also gave some monks and even warriors who were not famous and whose strength was still weak, the opportunity to become famous all over the world.

Of course, the hottest topic is still the group of high-level monks, such as——

"I heard that the Immortal Ranking has raised Gu Xuntian's ranking by one more place?"

"How many times has this been adjusted? Can you be more accurate?"

"If you ask me, Gu Xuntian should be ranked first in the sixth level. He fought against two Arhats alone more than thirty years ago, and now he is even more powerful..."

"I'm not convinced by this. Although I also respect Gu Xantian, he is a spiritual beast after all. Compared with the real peak sixth level, there should still be a gap..."

"Fuck you, I think you are a lackey of Arhat..."

Due to the three lists of heaven, earth and people, only monks and warriors of fifth level and below are included.

For those high-level monks above level six who rarely take action and rarely engage in battles, people can only guess at their strength.

In addition, the "immortal list" rankings are listed according to the three stages of six, seven, and eight for people who have good deeds.

Totally controversial.

Especially when it comes to Gu Xantian and even Buddhist Arhat, it is even more confusing.

[As long as you patrol the sky, we are good brothers]

【If you don’t criticize Buddhism, I will criticize you】

No matter what the fight looks like.

In terms of public opinion, Gu Xuntian won 99% first.

At this time, there were two people in the teahouse stall who did not participate in the scolding battle.

Among them, the seven-foot-old man with a somewhat immature face was listening to the conversation outside and became more and more curious.

"Sister Gu, what kind of person is Mr. Xuantian?"

Gu Yuerong was sitting across from him. When he heard this question, a flash of memory flashed across his face.

After pondering for a long time, he spoke.

"A pure man."

In her heart, although her husband is a spiritual beast, he is more suitable to be called "human" than most people in the world.

Thinking of the husband she hadn't seen for a long time, she was filled with anticipation.

Eighty-seven days and nine hours have passed since the last time we met. I wonder where my husband is now.

"purely?"

The seven-foot man was thoughtful.

Just then, someone knocked on the door and walked into the cubicle.

Gu Yuerong's eyes met with the visitor's, and Gu Yuerong's heart beat faster and he stood up suddenly.

"gentlemen!"

"It's a bit far away, so I'll let you wait a few more days."

Jiang He explained with a smile, looking at the seven-foot man who also stood up, with a hint of brilliance in his eyes.

With this height and figure, he is only eight years old?

"Giant blood?"

"Yes, sir, I inherited a trace of giant blood from my parents. My name is Wu You. I am eight years old this year."

Wu You saluted hastily, with admiration in his eyes.

He grew up hearing the reputation of Buyi Xantian and had already regarded Gu Xantian as a role model.

Now I finally got what I wanted and met the person I admired.

"Wu family..."

During the Luo Dynasty, there were slightly more people with special bloodlines than in the Wu Dynasty.

They are leftovers from the previous dynasty and are called [foreigners].

And because of what happened in the previous dynasty, most of them were driven to live in barbarian states. They were also called "barbarians" by many people, and their status was slightly lower than that of ordinary people.

Of course, Jiang He is a spiritual beast. If you insist on saying so, he is not even a human being.

He doesn't care about his origin at all.

It was just that being a member of the Wu family with a trace of giant blood awakened his memories.

Who would have thought at this time that these "foreigners" and "barbarians" looked down upon by the Luo people would actually stand in front of the world and support the last world for the human race?

The Emperor Wu even died in a bloody battle, worthy of the people.

Jiang He asked with some good feelings.

"I heard that you are dedicated to worshiping Buddha?"

"Yes, my lord."

Wu You lowered his head nervously, hesitating in his heart.

If Gu Xuntian, whom he admired, had personally dissuaded him...

Do you still want to practice this Buddha?

However, he did not hear Gu Xuntian speak to persuade, but instead spoke gently.

"Come, sit down and talk slowly."

"Would you mind telling me why you wholeheartedly worship Buddha?"

That handsome face and gentle voice seemed to have a unique power that calmed Wu You's heart.

He sat down obediently, upright.

"Because my mother is a Buddhist believer, I also recite Buddhist scriptures together..."

"...I was curious about the meaning of those Buddhist scriptures, and my mother often interpreted them for me..."

"...My mother died of illness, and I learned what life and death are..."

"...While reciting scriptures, I seem to feel that my mother is still around..."

"...I think there are many truths contained in Buddhist scriptures..."

Wu You poured out his thoughts.

Jiang He did not feel bored because it was too trivial and listened patiently.

Even if he has a trace of giant blood, he is much smarter than ordinary people.

An eight-year-old doesn't have much experience after all.

When he finished telling everything, Jiang He asked.

"Do you know that there are many monks who have gone astray but still have Buddha in their hearts?"

"My mother once told me that through the narrow gap, you can't see the whole dragon, only a scale."

"I can't think that just because I see one bad person, the world is full of bad people."

Wu You replied without thinking, obviously having been asked many times by Gu Yuerong.

"Those monks may have gone astray, but that doesn't mean the Buddha has gone astray."

Jiang He listened patiently and then asked again.

"If one day, you really find that all the monks in the world are not as you think, they have gone astray and are sanctimonious people."

"Even the so-called Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats are the same."

"Will your devotion to Buddha still be so firm?"

If it were someone else, Wu You would definitely not believe it and think that the other person was coaxing a child.

However, it was Jiang He whom he admired and admired who said these words.

He thought for a long time based on Jiang He's hypothetical situation, and then strengthened his belief again.

"Even all the monks in the world have taken the wrong path."

"Then they're on the wrong track."

"The principles in the Buddhist scriptures that lead people to do good are unmistakable."

"What I want to learn is Buddhism, not the people who follow Buddhism."

Jiang He looked at Wu You and suddenly smiled when he saw Wu You's firm gaze.

He turned around and said to Gu Yuerong.

"Don't worry, this kid can learn Buddhism."

[You sit down and talk with Wu You and ask him about his Buddha mind: If the monk is evil, do you still turn to the Buddha? 】

[Wu Youyan: If one monk is evil, then all non-monks are evil. 】

[You ask again: What if all monks are evil? 】

[Wu Youmo, Jiujiu said: The evil of the monk is not the evil of the Buddha, and the evil of the Buddha is not the evil of the monk. 】

[You laugh and say to your friends: Children can learn Buddhism. 】

[Then he asked Wu You to follow him and learn Buddhism from his side. 】

[Wu You doubts the Buddhist scriptures. Please forgive him and say that we will go to Lingshan together to obtain the Buddhist scriptures. 】

[My friend was shocked and tried to dissuade him, saying that the Buddha was tired of patrolling the heavens, so he decided to reject him. 】

[You say: If you take it, the Buddha cannot refuse it. 】
