The tourists who attended the Yue Laan Hungry Ghost Festival went to the small town with the floats. Only a few stalls selling candy sticks were left. The ambassadors and the girls from the House of Red Sleeves were brought to the Wa Mountain by the monks to enjoy the scenery. The front temple had gradually returned to its peaceful appearance.
The ordinary cultivation sects were still waiting for news from the rear temple in the middle temple. However, they did not care and naturally would not sit still in the temple. Instead, they walked around, entering the temple and worshiping the Buddhas when they saw them.
Outside a slightly remote temple, the Crown Prince of the South Jin Kingdom climbed up from the ground with difficulty. He looked at the broken temple door with extreme fear in his eyes. He even subconsciously avoided Xie Chengyun's support.
Xie Chengyun did not know what had happened in the temple. He once again reached out to help the Crown Prince up. He looked into the temple and said angrily, "Your Highness, who is so daring? I will send someone to capture him and interrogate him."
The South Jin Kingdom was a powerful country in the world, and the Crown Prince was even more arrogant. He would not be at a disadvantage even when facing Ning Que, a disciple of the Academy, on the Wa Mountain. However, when he heard Xie Chengyun's words, his face instantly turned pale and he said repeatedly, "No, no! Leave this temple immediately! "
…
…
The light in the temple was relatively dim, and this side temple was no exception. If not for some light leaking in through the broken door, one would not have been able to see what was going on inside.
There were also two stone statues in this temple.
Two people were looking at the two statues of the Venerable Ones.
One was wearing a plain robe with a simple Taoist bun. He carried a wooden sword on his back. He was the World Wayfarer of Haotian Taoism, Ye Su. The other was strong and wore a rarely seen animal skin robe in the Central Plains. He was the World Wayfarer of the Devil's Doctrine, Tang.
The Crown Prince of the South Jin Kingdom must have been thrown out of the temple by one of them. It was no wonder that the Crown Prince was so afraid facing such two powerful World Wayfarer.
Ye Su said, "You did not kill the Crown Prince of the South Jin Kingdom. So I will not attack you in the temple today."
Tang's voice was a little low and humming. "I am not interested in killing. But aren't the royal families in the Central Plains dogs of the West-Hill Divine Palace? Why would you care about a dog?"
Ye Su said with a smile, "Haotian Taoism and the secular world are mutually reinforcing. You don't know that the Zhishou Abbey has to support many people, and they are very picky. So we really need the royal family to help us earn money."
Tang looked at him and said, "You are able to admit the decadence of Taoism. You speak more directly now, and you look more pleasing to the eye. But when did the wooden sword on your back have a scabbard?"
Ye Su said, "When I was young, I always felt that there was no place in the world that I couldn't go and that there was no one I couldn't defeat. I was extremely proud, so how could I be willing to keep the Taoist Sword in its sheath? Now that I'm getting older, I've also understood some more truths. A sword in its sheath is still a sword. Even if it withdraws its edge, it doesn't necessarily lose its sharpness."
Dunn said, "It seems that your trip to Chang 'an has been fruitful."
Ye Su said, "You should also go to Chang 'an and live for a while."
Dunn said, "I'll go if I have the chance."
Ye Su turned to look at him and said, "You don't even dare to go to Chang 'an. Why do you dare to come to Lanke Temple?"
Dunn said, "In the past, you wanted to kill me every time you saw me. Why don't you do it today?"
Ye Su said, "Because I only realized after coming to Lanke Temple that the Devil's Doctrine has been destroyed after the Lotus Sect massacred the ancient temple decades ago. Even if you are alive, you can't change anything."
Dunn said, "Do you think that today will be the same as that day decades ago?"
Ye Su shook his head and said, "Back then, the Divine Lord Lotus and Mr. Ke were already invincible. Today, the two people in the temple may have unlimited potential, especially one of them. But after all, only Xiao He has shown his talent."
Dunn said, "Are you sure that the Academy won't do anything?"
Ye Su said, "This is a Buddhist temple. It's the mute who needs to worry about this, not us."
Dunn said, "So you don't go to the back temple, but stay here and stare at the statue of the Venerable."
Ye Su said, "It's the same for you."
Dunn said, "Because I respect the Academy, so I don't want to stain my hands with blood."
Ye Su said after a moment of silence, "It's because I still don't understand."
Dunn said, "There are also things that Taoism doesn't understand?"
Ye Su said, "Even the Divine Lord of Light was not wrong back then, let alone me."
Dunn said, "I really want to know how far Ning Que will go."
Ye Su said, "He is an extremely realistic and selfish person. He won't have the courage to fight against the whole world."
Dunn shook his head and said, "You look more human now, but that's only because of the smoke from the houses in Chang 'an. In fact, after breaking through the Death Door, you don't understand the thoughts of a normal person at all."
Ye Su thought for a moment and nodded. "That makes sense."
At this moment, a bell rang in the Lanke Temple. It buzzed continuously and could be heard everywhere.
Ye Su slowly closed his eyes and searched for the sound of the bell.
"It's starting."
He walked out of the side hall and walked to the back temple.
Dunn looked at the stone statue of the Venerable in front of him. After a moment of silence, he also left the hall.
The cultivators in the middle temple were alarmed by the bell and walked out. They held the railings and looked toward the mountain.
Ye Su and Dunn walked through the crowd.
No cultivators noticed them.
No one would have thought that these two were the legendary World Wayfarers.
The bell rang incessantly along the way.
The Light of Buddha in the Lanke Temple grew brighter. Countless auras of heaven and earth gathered and formed a barrier above the temple that could only be sensed but not seen. It contained supreme power.
The wooden sword on Ye Su's back seemed to sense it and buzzed softly.
Dunn's right foot crushed a brick.
Ye Su looked up at the sky and frowned slightly. He said, "The Buddhism Sect has been silent for tens of thousands of years. I didn't expect them to hide such a powerful technique. My sword can pass through, but I can't."
Dunn looked down at the broken brick under his feet and said in a low voice, "I can try to pass through underground."
The two came to the back temple of the Lanke Temple.
Looking at the tightly shut black door in front of him and feeling the changes in the hall, Ye Su's expression suddenly became extremely shocked. He said with mixed emotions, "My Master sensed it in the South Sea, so he asked me to come back from the north to take a look. However, he probably didn't expect this to be the truth."
…
…
In the back hall of the Lanke Temple.
When the bell rang, Ning Que's finger had yet to draw the complete line in the air, so he didn't continue. Instead, he guarded his sense of perception and stood where he was, ready to resist Buddha's power.
The Yue laan Bell was indeed a ritual implement that Buddha always carried with him. Accompanied by the clear sound, a benevolent and majestic Buddha's nature entered his ears and silently entered his sense of perception.
In an instant, countless illusions appeared in Ning Que's mind. Those indescribably filthy and ugly Devil Bodies and those indescribably charming Heavenly Ladies kept shuttling back and forth, sometimes near and sometimes far away. They exuded all kinds of temptations and fears, leading him to the pure land or the Underworld.
Ning Que's sense of perception was violently torn and he was in great pain. However, his sense of perception still had fragments of Master Lotus' consciousness, so he woke up from the illusion in a very short time.
After confirming that Buddha's Yue laan Bell was not as powerful as he had imagined, and that he could even survive it without entering the Knowing Destiny State, he decided to resolve this matter as quickly as possible.
The Yue laan Bell did not affect him.
He looked at Master Boshu in front of him, ready to fight him to the death.
However, the look in Master Boshu's eyes was very strange.
Boshu looked at Ning Que in a daze. He looked a little frightened, but more confused.
The rest of the people in the hall also had strange looks in their eyes.
They looked at him as if they had seen a ghost. They were shocked, frightened, and confused.
Ning Que looked down at his body and found nothing strange. There was no bloody hole in his chest like Long Qing, so he also felt strange.
He looked up at Boshu and the people in the hall again.
All of a sudden, he felt extreme panic.
Because this time, he finally saw clearly that people were not looking at him, but behind him.
Ning Que turned around.
…
…
Sangsang sat on the futon.
Her little face was very pale, and the ground in front of her was mottled with blood. She was not coughing up blood, but spitting it out.
The bell continued to ring in the Lanke Temple.
There was a puff.
She spat out another mouthful of blood, drenching her black cotton robe and the brick floor.
A beam of Buddha's Light penetrated the hall and fell on her body.
The beam of Buddha's Light was so merciful, yet so cold.
In the Buddha's Light, Sangsang's face looked even paler, and her thin body looked even smaller.
She looked at Ning Que outside the Buddha's Light and cried silently.
…
…
Master Boshu looked at Sangsang in shock. Quni Madi looked at Sangsang in shock. Cheng Ziqing looked at Sangsang in shock. Cheng Lixue looked at Sangsang in shock.
Everyone in the hall looked at Sangsang, their expressions extremely shocked.
It was as if they had seen a ghost.
Master Qishan let out a painful sigh.
Master Boshu's expression was complicated as he murmured, "Buddha is merciful. I see."
Master Qishan looked at Ning Que and said in pain, "The truth is as you see now. You are not the son of Yama. She is the daughter of Yama."
…
…
Looking at Sangsang in pain in the Buddha's Light, Ning Que felt like he had been abandoned by the whole world. It was just like how he had felt in the woodshed many years ago.
If he had to choose what he wanted to choose, then he would have been abandoned by the whole world.
The reason why he felt like he had been abandoned by the whole world was because he knew that he would choose what he wanted to choose. Just like many years ago, he had picked up the chopper in the end.
Since it was his own choice, then it was not the whole world that had abandoned him.
It was he who had abandoned the whole world.
He walked into the Buddha's Light and opened the big black umbrella to cover Sangsang's head.
