Chapter 102 The Confrontation between God and Man

Tian Chong City.

Inn, private room on the second floor.

"Junior Chu Qian (Lin Qingyu), thank you two seniors for saving your life."

Chu Qian, a disciple of the Immortal Chef Sect, and Lin Qingyu, a disciple of the Lingmei Sect, saluted at the same time, very respectfully.

"Come on, come on, sit down first, don't be so formal."

Lu Xuan greeted the two of them to sit down with a smile on his face.

"How is the situation at Tianchong Temple?"

Lu Xuan asked.

"Return to Senior Lu's words."

Chu Qian spoke:

"All the disciples of Tianchong Temple turned into part of the demon's body. Except for some handymen, no Buddhist cultivator in the temple survived.

The common people and ordinary monks who participated in the vegetarian banquet were not seriously injured when the incident happened and the seniors present responded promptly."

Lu Xuan nodded slightly:

"You did a good job yesterday. The people and monks who participated in the vegetarian banquet were saved. You have great merit."

"Actually, I didn't do anything."

Chu Qian was a little embarrassed to be praised by Lu Xuan. He never thought that he almost died in Tianchong Temple last night in order to pass on the news.

"If I really want to say that the person who deserves the credit has to be Fellow Daoist Lin."

Chu Qian thought for a while:

"Last night I saw the strange behavior of Tianchong Temple, and I was filled with enthusiasm. I wanted to go down with fellow Taoist Lin. If she hadn't stopped me in time...the consequences would be disastrous. She is brave and resourceful."

"There's no need to praise me like that."

Lin Qingyu shook her head, "I entered that crypt to find out the truth about the disappearance of my sect elder. I am far less understanding of the righteousness than fellow Taoist Chu."

"Okay, okay, it's all about deeds but not your heart. You two should stop being so modest."

Cheng Lingzhu smiled and raised his cup, "Here, on behalf of the people here, I would like to toast the two knights."

"Senior is so ridiculous, I don't dare to accept it, I don't dare to accept it..."

The two of them hurriedly raised the tea cups on the table and drank the tea in the cups. Chu Qian's eyes suddenly widened:

"This tea, this tea...this is..."

"Picked from the Enlightenment Tree in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land, it has a thicker taste. I don't know if you young people like it."

Lu Xuan smiled.

He doesn't usually drink tea from this tree. The enlightenment tree in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land is a little older, and even the new tea's tea soup is very rich.

Lu Xuan is a young man. When he was with Cheng Lingzhu, the two of them drank tea from the "Gutuo Forbidden Land". The Enlightenment Tree in this family will undergo nirvana every hundred years and a new tree will grow on the original site.

The Enlightenment Tea from Gutuo Forbidden Land has a sweet taste, leaving a fragrant aroma on your lips and teeth after drinking it.

Every time Lu Xuan goes down the mountain, he has to go there to buy goods. He is relatively introverted and is embarrassed to bother others, so he picks leaves by himself.

The Lord of the Forbidden Land was very moved by this.

"Senior, we...we..."

Enlightenment tea is so precious that even the leader of the great sect would only drink it once every once in a while. Chu Qian was a little incoherent and didn't know what to say.

"This is what a hero deserves."

Lu Xuan stopped what he was saying and said with a smile:

"If you say thank you and salute again, you will look pedantic."

Hearing what Lu Xuan said, the two of them had no choice but to swallow their words.

After taking a sip of tea soup, Lin Qingyu slowly exhaled:

"Last night my hiding place was broken and I fell into the hands of Kong Wen. I thought he was going to kill me on the spot... I'm really lucky."

She recalled what she had experienced last night and was still frightened.

"This has nothing to do with luck, right?"

Chu Qian drank the Enlightenment Tea and his thinking became clear:

"After all, you are not a threat in front of others. When we Xianchu Sect disciples buy chickens, we often raise them for two days before killing them."

Lin Qingyu: "..."

"Thank you so much, fellow Taoist, for clearing up the confusion."

She looked at Chu Qian and squeezed out a sentence through her teeth.

"It should be."

Chu Qian smiled brightly.

The two of them drank tea each, and Chu Qian asked curiously:

"Senior Lu, what is the origin of the demon in Tianchong Temple? Fellow Daoist Lin said that this demon was transformed by a senior of their sect, but how could such a good person become like that?"

"You want to know?"

Lu Xuan raised his eyebrows.

The two looked at each other and nodded.

Although they could roughly understand that Tian Chong Temple was raising demons, they still had many doubts about this case.

"I found the note left by Kongwen in Tianchong Temple."

Kong Wen is a direct disciple of Tian Chong Buddha and the second generation head of Tian Chong Temple.

Lu Xuan took out a roll of jade slips and spread it out on the table:

"The origin of this matter lies with Tian Chongfo."

"Heaven worships Buddha?"

Chu Qian was stunned.

"good."

Lu Xuan pointed to the notes on the table:

"Everyone in the world knows that Tian Chong Buddha made his fortune in the kitchen hall, observing the birth and death of the fire at the bottom and understanding the Buddha's intention. However, there is another hidden story behind this matter."

He paused:

"This handwriting records that Tian Chongfo was working as a cook in a large temple. Suddenly one day, a meteor fell to the ground at night and smashed through the kitchen.

The person on duty that night happened to be Tian Chongfo. He stepped forward to check and saw a square piece of "meat" in the pit of the kitchen, about the size of a human head.

According to Tian Chongfo's recollection, the meat was 'white in color, soft in texture, as solid as fat, with internal lines and a strange aroma'.

At that time, Tian Chongfo was a reckless man, and he only thought that some monks were fighting in the air and killed some birds, and the pieces of meat fell from their bodies.

He cooked meals for the masters and masters in the temple, and the food he ate was vegetarian. Naturally, he was happy to pick up such a piece of "spiritual beast meat" for free.

So he cut the meat into thin slices and ate it raw that night.

After eating one piece, Tian Chongfo will feel that his ears and eyes are sharp, his body is strong, and he is much stronger than before.

After taking two tablets, his mind becomes clear and his thinking is quick. He suddenly understands many things that he didn't understand before. He can understand many things that he couldn't understand before.

So Tian Chong Buddha ate a whole piece of 'spiritual beast meat', opened his wisdom roots, established the Dharma in his heart, and embarked on the path of practice."

When Chu Qian and Lin Qingyu heard this, they felt quite thoughtful and terrified.

Just by looking at Tian Chongfo's description of that piece of meat, one can tell that there is something wrong with it. A normal person would hesitate for a long time if he wanted to eat it.

But Tian Chongfo took it for granted that it was spiritual animal meat, and even ate it raw without any cooking methods.

The two of them had a vague suspicion that the piece of meat might have some kind of demonic power, and that it was deliberately tempting Tian Chongfo to eat him.

"Senior Lu, there are records in the practice world. Tian Chong Buddha reached the stage of transcending tribulations and passed away at the age of more than five thousand years. Could it be that he was not affected by this body?"

Lin Qingyu asked.

"Of course it was affected."

Lu Xuandao:

"After Tian Chong Buddha became enlightened, he often said to himself that he had taken the wrong path and could not see the true Buddha. In his later years, he often fell into a state of mental disorder and often mentioned the name [Tai Sui Xingjun]."

"Taisui God...isn't he from a Taoist sect?"
