Ji Yaoyue set fire to the cattail hassock left by Master Xuanzang, setting the monk's clothes on fire. The monk quickly got up and patted the fire as he cheered, "Little girl, you're pretty and wise. You're a good cook. Instead of worshiping this dead thing, why don't you warm yourself with fire?"
"Big monk, don't be in a hurry to cheer. Look behind you!" Ying Feiyang reminded the monk as he watched the fire spread.
However, the monk cried out miserably, "Aiyo, oh no, Buddha's butt! I, Buddha's indestructible body, am not afraid of this little fire, but how can I show my butt? No, no, I'm going! "
The monk covered his back with his hands and turned to run, chanting as he ran, "Don't cultivate virtue, don't be ignorant of karma, burn incense, chant sutras, sing Amitabha, tut tut tut! Not as good as a bright fire. Break the golden gong, break the jade lock, when will you see your true self, eh, eh, eh! Under the Bodhi tree, bare-buttocks Buddha! "
Ying Feiyang saw that the monk looked wild, but his words were clear and logical, with hidden meanings. These Buddhist chants were obviously meant to remind the herdsmen, so she was secretly amazed. "This monk is really interesting!"
"What's interesting? Hey, crazy monk! Sister Chu Song, don't look, your eyes will get sore! " Ji Yaoyue had wanted to tease the monk and get a feel of him, but when she saw the big hole in the back of the monk's robe, he covered his butt and ran away. Ji Yaoyue blushed and turned her head away. She even covered Chu Song's eyes.
The herdsmen felt that the monk's Buddhist chant was like the sound of a golden bell, giving them an epiphany, but they could not explain it clearly. They wanted to find the monk and ask him for an explanation, but they saw that the monk had already rushed to the side of an ice lake with his fire, and then he plunged into the water.
The herdsmen could not help but cry out in alarm. The frozen lake was filled with snow water left behind by the Kunlun Snow Mountain. It was colder than ice and snow. Ordinary people would feel the piercing cold when they washed their hands in it. They did not expect that someone would dare to jump into the lake. Seeing that the monk had not surfaced for a long time, the herdsmen could only guess that someone had died. They hurriedly chased after him to take a look. Ying Feiyang and the other two followed behind them.
The snow water was clear and transparent, as far as the eye could see, the big monk's shadow was nowhere to be seen. Ying Feiyang realized that he had met an extraordinary person.
The herdsmen thought they had seen a deity and were about to worship again when they heard Ying Feiyang laugh and say, "What do you want to worship now? Are you going to pray to the naked Buddha? " Ying Feiyang could tell that the monk's every move had the charm of the Zen Sect of "directly pointing to the heart and seeing one's nature to become a Buddha". The Zen Sect of Buddhism scolded the ancestors and advocated that everyone had the nature of Buddha. The Buddha was once a naked Buddha. Instead of kowtowing to the dead and worshipping others, it was better to understand one's heart and see one's nature to become a Buddha.
With this advice, the herdsmen did not know whether to worship or not. Many of them with wisdom had already understood. However, there were still some herdsmen who glared at Ying Feiyang and the other two and said, "How dare you say such slanderous words? You burned the praying mat that Master Xuanzang used to sit on. My tribe hasn't settled the score with you yet! "
Ji Yaoyue laughed and said, "The monk said that I burned it well. Seeing that you haven't been enlightened, why don't I set another fire on your head and burn your hair so that you can have peace? Maybe you can understand something."
The man was about to get angry again, but he saw the leader of the herdsmen walk out. The leader's eyes were faintly glowing, and he looked like a different person from before. He seemed to have understood something and no longer cared about the praying mat. He asked, "The three of you look extraordinary. Are you the deities who came down from Kunlun?"
"We are actually …" Chu Song was about to deny it, but Ji Yaoyue pulled his sleeve and gave him a look. They had just arrived at Kunlun and did not know much about the mountain. They needed to get some information from the herdsmen.
The herdsmen saw that Ying Feiyang and the other two looked extraordinary, so they only thought of them as guests from Kunlun. Ying Feiyang took the opportunity to say, "I don't deserve to be called deities. What advice do you have for us, sir?"
"I don't dare to give advice to the deities of Kunlun. I just want to know when the young men of my tribe can go down the mountain."
"Go down the mountain?" Ying Feiyang frowned and asked.
"That's right. The thirty-one young men of my tribe were recruited by the deities half a year ago to go up the mountain. They said that they would be building the temple for the deities, but I don't know when it will be finished and they can come back. Now that spring has arrived, my tribe is planning to move back to our tribe. If we are short of manpower and miss the planting season, we will not be able to harvest this year. "
Ying Feiyang was suspicious. The master of Kunlun Mountain had changed, and the Six Dao of Evil Destroyer was now in charge. The herdsmen at the foot of the mountain were still clueless. He asked, "Sir, have you noticed anything unusual on the mountain in recent years?"
The herdsmen looked confused. "That is the residence of the deities. How can we see anything unusual? Do you not know the whereabouts of the young men of my tribe? "
Ying Feiyang said, "There are different schools in Kunlun Mountain. I don't know about this, but why don't you tell me in detail? I can help you find out about the other schools."
"Two deities came that day. They were wearing white robes with black edges …" the herdsmen said. Ying Feiyang then found out that the tribe was called the Boyi tribe. They lived at the foot of Kunlun Mountain for generations. There were less than a hundred people in the tribe, and they were one of the many tribes at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. The tribe originally worshiped the celestial cultivators of Kunlun Mountain. When Master Xuanzang passed by this place on his journey to the west, he was hosted by the Boyi tribe and preached for three days. After that, the Boyi tribe even believed in Buddhism.
The Boyi tribe was half farming and half herding. Their land was in a valley in Kunlun Mountain. Every winter, when the mountain was covered with snow, they would leave their land to live on water and grass. When the snow melted in spring, they would return to their land and sow some highland crops in the fields irrigated by snow and ice. Last winter, a deity from Kunlun Mountain came to the tribe and invited the young men of the tribe to help with the construction of the mountain. The Boyi tribe agreed to such a good deal and left the young men to follow the deity up the mountain. The rest of the tribe moved away. Now that spring had arrived, they returned to their land. Since they needed manpower to sow the seeds in spring, they would miss this year's harvest. They wanted to ask when the young men would finish their work and return to their land.
Ying Feiyang made a mental note of it. According to the Boyi tribe's description of the clothes, the people who came that day should be Daoists from the human world. It seemed that the Evil Destroyer of the Six Realms was still using a soft strategy to appease the herdsmen at the foot of the mountain. There were a few wars in Tongtian Dao, but the herdsmen at the foot of the mountain still knew nothing about it. The Evil Destroyer of the Six Realms even used silk and other goods to exchange for their labor instead of directly robbing them.
Ying Feiyang did not think that the Evil Destroyer of the Six Realms had changed his temperament. Obviously, he was just trying to avoid startling the herdsmen at the foot of the mountain and leaving them with no labor force in the future.
However, other than the fact that Kunlun Mountain was using the people to build the fortifications, there was no other useful information. Ying Feiyang could only agree to this matter and wait until they reached Kunlun Mountain.
At this moment, he heard the clopping of hooves and saw a man on a galloping horse approaching in panic. "Leader, it's bad. There are wolves. A lot of them are rushing towards our camp!"
However, when the man approached, he saw the wolves of Ying Feiyang and the other two. He was so scared that his face turned pale and he almost fell off his horse. "Wolves! Why are there wolves here too? "
