The old monk replied, "The Great Freedom Heart was not taught by me. It was comprehended by Lay Practitioner Ancient himself."
Before he could finish his sentence, the female patron's angry roar sounded again. "If you had not preached Buddhism to him, would he have comprehended the Great Freedom Heart of Buddhism?"
"Sigh …"
The old monk sighed again. "I know that Lay Practitioner Ancient is a person who does as he pleases. I wanted to convert him into Buddhism and Daoism, hoping that he would cultivate a compassionate heart with the common people at heart. But … but … I never expected that not only did Lay Practitioner Ancient not cultivate a compassionate heart, he actually … comprehended a Great Freedom Heart."
The old monk sighed again, still lamenting the helplessness in his heart.
Every time he thought of this, the old monk felt both regret and helplessness.
"I used to live a peaceful life outside. I didn't know who set up this Chessboard of Heaven and Earth, and I didn't want to know. But now? I've really had three lifetimes of bad luck. How did I get on your pirate ship? Now, I can't even get off! "
"Female patron, you said just now that I'm only staying in the Nirvana Bone Jade. As for why the Nirvana Bone Jade chose him, I have no idea. If this is a pirate ship, it is definitely not mine. I'm also a victim. I thought that by hiding in the Nirvana Bone Jade, I could ignore the matters of Heaven and Earth, much less participate in them. But … sigh!"
Yes.
The old monk was also a victim.
It was not that the female patron did not know, but she was still angry and regretful. If she had not boarded this pirate ship back then, she would not have ended up in this state.
As a person without Dao, she knew very well that she would not be able to avoid the impending Heaven and Earth calamity.
As for what calamity it was.
She did not know.
Nor did she want to know.
However, even if she could not avoid it, she could not avoid it.
Just because she could not avoid it did not mean that she had to participate.
These were two different concepts.
Furthermore, when she was outside, she could do whatever she wanted. Even if she could not avoid it in the end, she would just be reduced to ashes.
But now?
After entering the Nirvana Bone Jade, it was no longer a question of whether or not one could avoid it. Instead, it was a matter of being involved. There was nowhere to run even if one wanted to. This was because the current owner of the Nirvana Bone Jade was a person of original sin. Furthermore, it was a person of original sin who had fused with the blood of original sin.
How could he dodge?
He couldn't dodge it.
From the moment he fused with the blood of original sin, it meant that he could no longer avoid it. He had already become a chess piece in this chess game of heaven and earth.
Furthermore.
The more she understood Gu Qingfeng, the more she felt that this fellow was unreliable. She even felt that even if this fellow had not fused with the blood of original sin and was not a person of original sin, with this fellow's personality, he would definitely be a scourge in the future during the calamity of heaven and earth.
Furthermore.
Now, this scourge had even fused with the blood of original sin.
The benefactress was a person from the Daoless Era. She knew better than anyone what the blood of original sin represented. It could be said that she had an innate shadow towards this thing. She was previously hiding outside from the original sin.
Now, not only did he not avoid it, he even delivered himself to it.
What to do?
The benefactress really didn't know what to do.
She couldn't get any response from the heavens and earth.
It could be said that she didn't even have a place to cry.
She was like that.
Wasn't the old monk the same?
He had previously hidden in the Nirvana Bone Jade to hide from the original sin. He didn't expect that after hiding for so long, he would end up in the hands of a person of original sin.
The old monk hoped to use the Buddhist Dharma to enlighten this person of original sin.
He hoped that he would cultivate such a compassionate heart.
He didn't expect that this person of original sin would cultivate such a great heart of freedom that even he was dumbfounded.
Since then, the old monk had never talked about any Buddhist Dharma to Gu Qingfeng, not even a single word. It wasn't only about Buddhist Dharma. In front of Gu Qingfeng, he would not say anything if he could. He was afraid that if he said too much, Gu Qingfeng would comprehend something.
Compared to the benefactress, the old monk knew Gu Qingfeng better.
He knew very well what kind of person Gu Qingfeng was.
Previously, the benefactress said that Gu Qingfeng only cared about the people he cared about. If heaven and earth collapsed, he wouldn't even bother to take a look.
In fact, the old monk didn't agree because he knew that Gu Qingfeng was indeed someone who only cared about the people he cared about. It was precisely because he cared about the people he cared about that he definitely wouldn't let heaven and earth collapse. In other words, if you killed the people he cared about, then he would definitely let heaven and earth collapse.
Was it an exaggeration?
It wasn't an exaggeration at all.
The old monk knew very well that Gu Qingfeng would definitely do such a life-and-death struggle.
Therefore.
He was very afraid.
In the past, he probably didn't know who had set up this chessboard of heaven and earth in the Lawless Era.
He also didn't know what the final result of this chessboard of heaven and earth would be.
Now, he was even more afraid.
He wasn't afraid of who had set up this chessboard of heaven and earth, nor was he afraid of the final result of this chessboard of heaven and earth.
Instead, he was afraid of Gu Qingfeng.
He was afraid that after Gu Qingfeng entered the chessboard, he would mess up the whole chessboard. If that was the case, then it would be difficult to clean up and heaven and earth would be in chaos.
As for why he felt this way.
The old monk didn't know either.
He felt very afraid.

He wasn't afraid of who had set up this chessboard of heaven and earth, nor was he afraid of the final result of this chessboard of heaven and earth.
Instead, he was afraid of Gu Qingfeng.
