Ma Li had also been tossing and turning on the platform for a good forty-five minutes. In the end, his legs were weak and his throat was hoarse. Not to mention rain, he did not even see wind or thunder. He was even worse than the Jiao Si!
Wild Boar came down angrily and comforted him, "Since you didn't get rain, you still have a chance. Why are you so unhappy? In my opinion, no one here can control this rain! It's good news for us that no one can control it! "
This was the truth. For the Three Immortals, this was already the best result!
The Three Crawlers finally heaved a sigh of relief! They were also very nervous when they could not contact the Jiao-Dragon. They did not know what happened up there.
Only a group of big demons who were watching the show were pointing and whispering. The wolf demon asked in a low voice.
"Big Brother Tiger, I wonder what this Old Flood Dragon is doing up there? Did he lose his strength after playing with the clam girl for too long yesterday? Should we find a chance to go up there and take a look? "
Lord Hu sneered, "What's there to look at? It's none of our business! The Three Immortals are stingy, the Three Crawlers are ugly and cunning, and the Jiao is always on the fence. They are not good people! Let's just watch the show! It's best if we can't get rain, then this place will belong to us …
We have many demons, so we can try one by one. Maybe we can get lucky! I think the clouds are so thick that it won't disperse until the real rain comes … "
The next one to go up was Ma Lu. He was originally full of confidence, but now he was hesitant. What happened up there? He was very clear that the rain talisman was just for show. It had no real function and was only a reminder. The final result depended on the Jiao-Dragon who was operating it!
It leaped onto the stage and revealed its true form. The thousand-legged worm stood upright, twisting and shaking to its heart's content. It was very ugly. If it were not for the fact that they were praying for rain, this unique ugliness would have attracted a group of demons to beat it up!
It was a disgrace to the demon race!
The Jiao stared at the water bowl in front of him. Under the influence of the Swordsman, the true face of the Holy Mountain was gradually revealed.
Even though he did not know much about karma, as a veteran Yuanying Beast, he had heard of it before. At this level, different paths lead to the same goal. He already possessed the basic ability to discern! Although it didn't know how a Swordsman was able to decipher Buddhist techniques, it knew that it was true! What was displayed in the water basin could not be faked, because it contained the details of the decades since it took over this Buddhist instrument.
That voice was like a narration, "Nothing is without cause and effect! There was nothing that did not produce merit! Just like what you've been doing in the Oxen Plains for the past few decades!
When you lay down the first drop of sweet rain after a long drought, all the merit and virtue will belong to Buddha!
And in these decades, due to the drought, the displacement of people, the migration of people, the death of thirst, and the frenzied attacks will all be recorded on your head. This is also a kind of merit!
You are a great member of the Water Clan. You would rather sacrifice yourself for the sake of the Buddha!
Is this what you want? "
The Jiao trembled in anger. Over the past few decades, it valued the extraordinary power that the water bowl brought to it more and more. This made it more and more famous on this land. It was called the Rain Bringer, the Rain Dragon, and so on.
It did not expect to pay such a high price! This was because of its ignorance, and also because of its own greed!
This was the result of trying to break free from the control of nature. It might have indeed broken free, but it fell into another trap, a trap set by humans!
Nature would not harm it, but humans would!
The Jiao's anger gave it courage again! It was no longer afraid of the flying sword in front of it. So what if it took its life? Its future as a cultivator had come to an end because it had been targeting the Oxen Plains for decades. It thought that the Buddhists would bear all the responsibility.
It pushed the flying sword away with its front paws and suddenly turned around. Not far behind it, a Daoist was looking at it calmly.
The Jiao was full of anger, "Don't think that I will thank you for pointing this out to me! Don't think that I don't know that you have your own motives! If it were not for the conflict between Daoists and Buddhists, how could a remote place like Silu be involved in this mess?
If you had not reminded me, I could have lived happily for at least a few hundred years. But now, you are making me live in regret!
I will not make the rain fall on either side! "
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. It seemed that his wish to play the role of a savior would not come true. He had always wondered why it was so difficult for him to be a good person. Why was it so easy to be a bad person?
Demons had a very strange way of thinking. They were either stupid enough to be fooled by the Buddhists, or they could see the essence of things clearly when they came to their senses.
"Since you started your cultivation, you should have known that no one can get rid of these entanglements! There is no such thing as a cultivation world without ugliness! Don't pretend to be so innocent. It's like Silu is a cultivation paradise. Humans have their ugliness, demons have their ugliness. The only difference is that one is good at disguise, and the other is evil! "
The flying sword was pointed at the Jiao's forehead again. Even the dragon's claws could not pry it open. Instead, it was cut open, revealing the Swordsman's strong and cruel heart!
For a moment, the Jiao-Dragon was not afraid of death. But when it was faced with death, it was not as fearless as it thought it would be!
Lou Xiaoyi asked, "Do you know the true meaning of Buddhism?"
The Jiao shook its head subconsciously.
Lou Xiaoyi explained, "The true meaning of Buddhism is to let go of the butcher's knife and become a Buddha!
Your problem now is, how do you let go of the butcher's knife? So, don't throw away the water bowl. It can be used to hold water, to cook, and to wake up at night … "
The Jiao-Dragon understood. In its current situation, what other choice did it have?
Follow Buddhism? Impossible!
Follow Taoism? That would be a lie!
It could only go with the flow! Thinking wholeheartedly for the sake of the Silu race was the only solution. Only then would it be able to get out of this predicament.
"What do you want?"
Lou Xiaoyi snorted, "What do I want? What do you think an existence like you can provide me? I don't like the length of your shoelaces. I don't like the smell of your apron … I just want to help a few friends! I'm afraid that I'll be tainted by Buddhism if I interfere. So, I hope you can take the initiative and not cause me trouble! "
The Jiao's veins were bulging, "What if I don't agree?"
"I'll kill you and feed you to the pigs!" Lou Xiaoyi said casually, but his expression was cold!
The Jiao sighed. It was more used to this kind of direct method! This was also the standard way of dealing with demons! Throw away all the tricks and talk with your fists!
"Okay, I promise you!"
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. Can't you just talk nicely? Why do you have to threaten me? What a bastard!
