Fated to meet thousands of miles apart,
It's hard to hold hands without fate.
Ten years of cultivation to cross the same boat, a hundred years of cultivation to sleep together.
You and I are fated,
Heaven and Earth are destined.
Could it be that the glance in the previous life was only for this life to see. [Note 1]
The life-saving grace of a thousand years ago was destined to be repaid in the future.
Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian said, "Fated to meet thousands of miles apart,"
You have to search high up in the West Lake to continue your previous fate. [Note 2]
Xiaoqing and Zhang Yutang,
The heart of the incense-holding boy was moved,
The word "forget" lingered in his heart, and the previous fate was written off,
She even had a love affair. [Note 3]
Between Xu Shilin and Mei Niang, Wenqu Star Jade Rabbit Spirit,
Humans and demons were on different paths. Without the karma of a previous life, there was also no marriage.
In this world, other than the fate of men and women,
The fate of sisters was even deeper and more righteous.
Xiaoqing followed Bai Suzhen to death.
And … the little rabbit spirit who had been skinned and bled.

"Cai Yin, hurry up,
The sun in the east is about to rise,
What are you dawdling for? "Mei Niang spoke as she came in from outside the cave.
Siyang washed her face clean with a copper basin and also cleaned her messy hair … Oh,
Her hair was combed.
With her back facing Mei Niang,
She slowly wiped her face and hands,
Only then did Si Yang say, "I'm fine." As she spoke, she turned around.
Mei Niang tilted her head strangely, "Cai Yin, you, you feel …"
"What feeling?" Stroking the long hair that hung down on her shoulders, Siyang curled her lips, "Although the two of us are just rabbits that have just cultivated into spirits, we are at least in human form. We have to look like humans."
Mei Niang saw that her friend's words were the same as before, so she forgot about the strange feeling she had just now. She smiled and pulled Caiyin over to look at her, "Caiyin is also a beauty after dressing up like this. Let's see if the stinky fox next door still dares to ridicule us. It's just that …"
Mei Niang covered her right cheek and turned her head away. She said in a low voice, "My face is really annoying."
"However …" Mei Niang's tone became cheerful again. "With you by my side, Cai Yin, as long as we concentrate on cultivating, the scar on my face will definitely be removed after we become immortals."
Siyang held her hand and turned a blind eye to the horrible scar on the right side of her face. He nodded hard and said, "Definitely."
After that, the two of them stopped dawdling in the cave and ran to the top of the mountain.
Whether it was the current Siyang or Mei Niang, they were both rabbit spirits that had just cultivated into spirits. Among the many demons on Phoenix Mountain, they were not eye-catching at all. The reason why they could cultivate peacefully on this mountain was because of the thousand-year-old Purple Dragon King Ginseng.
The old ginseng spirit had a gentle temperament and did not like noise. There were no fierce big Little Demon Spirits in this territory that he had carved out. However, there were many little demons like Siyang and Mei Niang, but they did not have any powerful fighting abilities.
The two of them were able to stay here thanks to the old ginseng spirit's occasional care.
Little Demon Spirits were Little Demon Spirits after all. It was not easy for them to cultivate into spirits. They did not have an immortal's cave, nor did they have a master. They could only rely on the meager amount of natural treasures on Phoenix Mountain and the essence of the sun and moon to cultivate bit by bit.
Every day, when the sun rose from the east, it would bring with it strands of eastern purple Qi. This was also the essence of spiritual Qi. Therefore, at dawn, there were many Little Demon Spirits that had cultivated into spirits, intelligence, or human form. They inhaled and exhaled to absorb the essence of the sun, accumulating their cultivation bit by bit so that they could attain enlightenment as soon as possible.
Facing the east, a red sun slowly rose on the other side of the mountain. The surrounding clouds were dyed into a magnificent picture. In the blink of an eye, the red sun finally broke free from its shackles and completely revealed its brilliant light to the world.
At the same time, a strand of purple Qi that was invisible to the naked eye coiled and rose from the red sun.
There was more than one strand of purple Qi, but it was produced the moment the sun rose.
It made a hand seal and intercepted a strand of purple Qi. It used its spiritual power to guide it, and when it flew over, it opened its mouth and swallowed it. A purple light flashed in its eyes.
"I got the Cai Yin." Mei Niang happily jumped down from the big rock.
Siyang also jumped down from another rock. "Me too."
"Then let's go back and refine it." Mei Niang was very passionate about cultivation. She pulled Siyang and was about to leave.
"Wait." Siyang stopped her and said helplessly, "Mei Niang, did you forget that you promised to go to Grandpa Ginseng's place to grind medicine yesterday?"
"Huh?" Mei Niang was stunned. Then, she looked as if she just remembered. "Look at me, I forgot about that. I was indeed going to go to Grandpa Ginseng's place."
Siyang rolled her eyes at her. "Didn't I remind you? Alright, hurry up and go. Grandpa Ginseng will definitely be waiting. I also want to take a look at our radish and vegetable fields. I also want to pick some fruits from the mountain to make wine."
"Okay, okay, okay." Mei Niang nodded, but she still ran down the mountain. "My things are still in the cave. I'll go back and get them first. You go to the vegetable fields."
"Got it," Siyang replied from afar.
Siyang stood in the same spot and watched Mei Niang's figure disappear into the forest. Only then did she turn around and walk down another path.
She casually plucked some vines from the ground and used magic to transform them into a small basket to carry on her back. Along the way, she plucked any suitable fruits she saw.
Mei Niang was good at making medicine. Even the deities in the heavens would want to drink the wine she brewed. Her cultivation level was low, and she wasn't good at magic. In the end, she had to rely on a pot of excellent wine to save her little sister. However, she was skinned and bled, dying without a complete corpse.
Five hundred years ago, there was a Jade Rabbit in the Jade Lake. It violated the heavenly laws and was punished by the law, so it was banished to the mortal world. It should have been a rabbit in the mortal world, but because it was unwilling to be cooked and eaten with wine, it decided to focus on cultivation again. It hoped to attain Dao and become an immortal again.
This Jade Rabbit was Mei Niang.
As for Cai Yin, she was an ordinary wild rabbit on Mount Wuyi. When she was just able to transform, she met Mei Niang. Both of them were rabbit spirits, and their cultivation levels were low. Thus, they developed feelings for each other and became sisters.
A hundred years ago, the two of them thought that Mount Feng Huang was rich in resources, so Cai Yin and Mei Niang moved to Mount Feng Huang.
However, they didn't expect that Mount Feng Huang, a mountain with a beautiful name, would break the peace they had hoped for. Every time they thought back to it, tears and pain would surge into their hearts.
A chance encounter in Mount Feng Huang and a slip of the tongue caused Mei Niang to see a man in the mortal world. It continued a love between a human and a demon, a short-lived marriage that didn't have a result.
Siyang weighed the small basket on her back and felt that it was enough. Coincidentally, she also walked to the vegetable field that she and Mei Niang opened. She put down the basket and walked around the vegetable field to pull out the weeds.
There was only one type of vegetable planted in the vegetable field. Yes, they were all carrots.
After all, there were two rabbits. You couldn't expect rabbits to be able to grow food.
After plucking a few bunches of carrots, she carried them to the stream to wash the mud. As she washed them, Siyang wiped the water off one of them and began chewing on it. Yes, it tasted pretty good.
After becoming a rabbit spirit, Siyang realized that carrots were really delicious.
As she chewed on the carrots, her mind began to work quickly.
Be it Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian, or Xu Shilin and Mei Niang, these two stories were actually talking about the same theme.
They preached the Buddhist Dharma.
Bai Suzhen was a disciple of Old Mother of Blackfoal Mountain. After cultivating for many years, she had sought out Bodhisattva of the South Sea to ask for an opportunity to attain the Dao. Perhaps this was because she had received guidance from her master.
After the Investiture of the Gods, many Daoist disciples joined Buddhism. There were many reasons for this.
Guanyin was once one of the twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan School, Daoist Ci Hang. It was reasonable to say that she had some ties with Old Mother of Blackfoal Mountain.
Buddhism was Dao. Daoist disciples joining Buddhism was related to Laozi's transformation into a beard. It was understandable that the Heavenly Dao wanted to promote Buddhism and suppress Dao.
Without Old Mother of Blackfoal Mountain's approval, Bai Suzhen would not have openly sought out Guanyin. She had never mentioned her master even when she was in danger. It was possible that the two of them had discussed it.
Bai Suzhen repaid the debt of gratitude by giving birth to Wen Quxing. Later on, she focused on cultivation. Together with Xu Xian, she became a Buddha and an immortal. Their cultivation reached fruition. On the surface, the Dharma of Buddhism was flourishing. However, Bai Suzhen was a disciple of the Daoist Sect of Wonders. This was something that could not be erased. Guanyin was a guide.
"Indeed, those with backing can become immortals or Buddhas. Those without backing can only wait for death." After finishing the last bite of the radish, Siyang threw away the radish cherry. She placed the other radishes into a small basket and prepared to return to the cave.
Be it Bai Suzhen or Fa Hai, they were both people with backing.
It was indeed different to have a backer. In order to save Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen trespassed into the Celestial Court to steal the medicine and was fine. Needless to say, Fahai's Master was the Maha Kasyapa Great Arhat. Even if his Buddha's heart was not sincere, and for the sake of his feud with Bai Suzhen, he deliberately schemed to harm her and hurt many innocent people. But he still became a Buddha without even a fart.
It was a pity for Cai Yin and Mei Niang.
Guanyin saved Bai Suzhen many times and gave her a warning. However, when these two innocent little demons died, she only looked on indifferently from the side.
Guanyin appeared only after Mei Niang was killed. This subtle appearance was not because she could not save him, but because she did not want to. Perhaps it was because of the different paths between humans and demons. She wanted to let Wen Qu Xing experience the tribulation in the mortal world without any worries or emotional troubles.
Comparatively speaking, Cai Yin's misfortune was a blessing in disguise. Her soul was saved by Guanyin and she was kept in the Purple Bamboo Forest as a servant girl. This was a good thing. She could cultivate with Guanyin. This was indeed good for the Little Demon.
However, she was still unwilling to accept it.
She was unwilling to accept that Mei Niang's soul was destroyed and she could only reincarnate in the mortal world. She was also unwilling to accept that Giin Dharmapāṇa, who tortured her to death, was also kept in the Purple Bamboo Forest. The so-called punishment was to cultivate bitterly.
