Li Qingshan heaved a sigh of relief and prepared himself for battle. He stepped into the Pure Land Temple.
Bypassing the Mahavira Hall, the winding path led to a secluded place with deep flowers and trees. Abbot Yangon personally welcomed him outside the meditation room. Li Qingshan was shocked because Abbot Yangon looked even more spirited than him. His face was ruddy and his eyes were full of vigor. His white eyebrows had turned black and his white beard was gone. The wrinkles on his face had reduced by a lot. He was like a withered tree that had come back to life.
He had clearly suffered such a serious injury, but this Pure Land Sect was too awesome! Could Buddha be his father?
Abbot Yangon smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, don't slander the Buddha."
Li Qingshan's heart trembled, and the joy he felt from battling the army vanished without a trace. He was not an opponent for Abbot Rangoon in this state. Not only had his appearance become younger, but his spirit had also risen to a whole new level. His eyes could practically see through a person's heart.
He put his palms together and bowed. He looked up and said, "Abbot, why did you call me here?"
Abbot Yangon looked at him and sighed, "You really haven't changed."
Li Qingshan heard this and anger rose in his heart, "This bald donkey caused me so much trouble, and he still dares to say such words!"
"Fellow Daoist, don't be angry. This is the only way to eliminate the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Elephant. Of course, this is also my intention to hide it. Amitabha, I have sinned, please forgive me. "Abbot Yangon put his palms together and bowed to apologize.
Li Qingshan dodged and didn't accept the bow. What was wrong with this monk? Could it be that he was plotting something again?
"I was opportunistic and worshiped the Buddha. I can't blame anyone else. Master helped me and harmed me. Our grudges are settled now! "
Abbot Yangon smiled and said, "Do you think I want to harm you again?"
Li Qingshan didn't stand on ceremony, "It's nothing good anyway!"
Abbot Yangon suddenly became serious, "I asked you to come because I want to ask you something. Are you willing to convert to Buddhism? "
How sudden! Li Qingshan took a step back and called out, "I knew it wouldn't be anything good!" He would be better off dead than converting to some bullshit god or buddha.
Abbot Yangon's eyes shone. "You haven't answered me yet."
"Thank you. If you don't want to, can I go now? I'm warning you, don't stop me from leaving. I'm a disciple of the Myriad Appearance Sect. "
"Haha, of course not. Converting to Buddhism is something that you and I are willing to do. How can you force yourself to drink water? "
Li Qingshan's face was immediately filled with suspicion. Just a few days ago, his head was almost crushed.
Abbot Yangon felt a little awkward. He explained, "At that time, I still saw you as half an enemy, so …"
"What difference does it make now?"
Abbot Yangon said sternly, "Now I know that you are fated with Buddha!"
Li Qingshan said, "Those words sound familiar to me."
"You might not believe it, but I received a revelation from Buddha while I was unconscious." Abbot Yangon raised his index finger. He pointed upwards.
Li Qingshan was shocked. This was not the doomsday prophecy of those evil cultists in his previous life. It could be true. If it was true, then it would really be the end of the world.
He asked carefully, "Buddha personally descended to the mortal world?"
"How could that be?" Abbot Yangon laughed.
"Buddha spoke to you?"
"No." Abbot Yangon shook his head.
"Buddha told you my name?"
"No."
"What kind of revelation is this?!" Li Qingshan's heart returned to his stomach. This bald donkey was just bluffing.
Abbot Yangon's face was intoxicated, "Because of this, it is called a 'revelation'. Otherwise, Buddha's true appearance is not something that we can see. Buddha's mantra is something that we can bear. "
Li Qingshan grinned. Fanatics were really disgusting, "You're not dreaming, are you?"
"It's similar to a dream. For example, 'Dream Omen'. "
"The Path of Great Freedom and Mahayana Buddhism are completely incompatible, so you can continue dreaming! I'll take my leave. "Li Qingshan cupped his hands and was about to leave.
"Wait, the revelation I received wasn't just in a dream, it was also on your body." Abbot Yangon pointed at Li Qingshan with his finger that was pointing at the sky.
Li Qingshan's heart trembled. He felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but look at himself, "What do I have on my body?"
"You have a merciful heart."
Li Qingshan laughed out loud, "I've done so many bad things in my life. Before I came, I beat up tens of thousands of people."
"But none of them were seriously injured."
The ground was littered with soldiers lying on the ground. Military doctors went to and fro, treating them. They found out that most of them had light injuries, and in the end, they were just broken bones. With the medical methods of the cultivation path, they would recover quickly.
Of course, Li Qingshan held back. If not, he would have blown someone up with a single punch, and the ground would have turned into a river of blood. However, Chao Tianjiao would definitely come to stop him. He wouldn't be able to play to his heart's content, and in the end, he would be punished by military law. Li Liehuo had something on him.
He didn't pretend to be a good person, and said calmly, "I just had some misgivings."
Abbot Yangon asked, "If you don't have those misgivings, will you go on a killing spree?"
Li Qingshan was slightly stunned, and shook his head, "Of course not. They only said a few bad things about me behind my back, there's no need to kill them! "
Abbot Yangon said cheerfully, "In your eyes, they are still people." A trace of pity appeared in his eyes, "And in the eyes of many cultivators, they are no longer people. Not to mention cultivators, in the eyes of many mortals, they are no longer people. "
"Ah, a merciful heart." Li Qingshan was silent for a moment, "Then do you know how many innocent people I have killed? If necessary, I will still kill. " He felt that it was somewhat sad and ironic. If he had a merciful heart, then wouldn't a certain head of state be a Buddha?
"Buddha has a saying: Put down the butcher's knife, and become a Buddha."
Li Qingshan was even more disdainful, "This is called killing to prove one's Dao? Good people can't become Buddha, but bad people can. Oh, I understand, people who hold the butcher's knife are still strong enough after all. As long as they are willing to convert to Buddhism, they can immediately become high-level thugs and contribute to Buddhism. Of course, they are more useful than those weak and easy to bully good people. It seems that I still have to kill more people in the future. "
At this point, his face was full of ridicule, completely ignoring that he was in the Pure Land Temple, facing Arhat Erguo who was stronger than him.
"Not really!" Abbot Yangon shook his head, "The so-called 'kindness' of ordinary people is mostly because they are weak and can't stand up to the slightest test test. If they are given uncontrollable power and let to do whatever they want, they will also become butchers and devils. Even if they don't have power, they will blame the heavens and others and refuse to admit their mistakes, so it is difficult for all living beings. "
"Cultivators and upper echelons are just mortals in the first place. You must have seen many of their faces and heard many of their slogans. Perhaps they regard mortals as ants, trampling and destroying them is not a sin. Or perhaps they regard the people as lambs, born to be at their mercy. Their butcher's knife not only kills people, but also destroys the mercy in their hearts. Everything is just to make themselves feel at ease. "
Suddenly, he asked Li Qingshan, "Why do you have to suffer?"
Li Qingshan was silent.
