Not long after Chu Bai returned to Xiaoyao Sect, he began to practice alchemy in seclusion. Now Xiaoyao Sect has grown stronger, and masters in the sect have emerged one after another. For example, Yuxu and Jia Chun'er have both reached the realm of returning to the void, and Jia Ledao's wife Jin Ming has also entered.
Got the Mahayana.
As for Jia Ledao himself, he has reached the seventh level of Mahayana and has entered the late stage of Mahayana early.
Chu Bai returned to Xiaoyaomen for a few days and chatted with his grandfather, Director Zhou and others about their current situation. They lived very well in Xiaoyaomen, especially Mr. Chu. In order to show his respect for Mr. Chu, Chu Bai
Out of respect, a courtyard was specially built in the back hill. The old man lived alone and no one else could disturb him.
Yuxu and Jia Chun also gave birth to a child. She is a little girl who is already twelve years old and very cute.
Director Zhou's disciples have also officially joined the Xiaoyao Sect, and some of them have made great progress, taking on some management matters such as Xiaoyao Sect.
Chu Bai had a long talk with Yuxu before retreating, and the two of them also learned from Jidao Sect insider Wang Changtian that Jidao Sect had contacted Wanxiang Sect to deal with him.
However, he is now very brave and has many masters around him, so he has no fear. Of course, certain arrangements are still necessary, so he just waits for the fish to take the bait.
Yang Zhen, Ji Mei, Liu Caiyi and Yiyue and everyone else who were in the black pearl also came out. Inside the black pearl, you can only practice but cannot survive the catastrophe, so several people are about to face the catastrophe, and Chu
Bai didn't care about them one by one, and ignored them after releasing them.
Everything was coordinated and arranged by Jia Ledao. Besides refining alchemy, Chu Bai also practiced and occasionally continued to give guidance to the disciples in the alchemy pavilion.
The days passed quickly. Three months later, Zhao Ziliang, who was far away in Leizhou, came back. This guy was alone in Leizhou to inquire about information. There was no news for decades. However, he also knew that Chu Bai’s headquarters was at Xiaoyaomen, so
He couldn't find Chu Bai, so of course he returned to Xiaoyaomen.
When Chu Bai, who was refining elixirs, heard that Zhao Ziliang had returned, he went out of seclusion and saw this guy in the drawing room of the Dan Pavilion.
We haven't seen him for more than forty years, and Zhao Ziliang is still the same, laughing and joking, but his cultivation has actually reached the level of returning to the void.
That's right, you must know that when the two of them separated, this guy had just survived the infant tribulation not long ago.
"If I had known that your cultivation would improve so quickly, I would have left you alone a long time ago. It seems that you have worked hard to become stronger without me around!" Chu Bai said to the first person he made friends with after entering the world of Jiuzhou.
He was a very rude friend. Of course, they were considered brothers and sisters, and there was no barrier at all. Chu Bai liked this person, and Zhao Ziliang was also sensible.
"Of course. Why did I practice when I had you to protect me? So, during the years when you were gone, I could only work hard on my own, otherwise I would be bullied, haha." Zhao Ziliang is a spitter, this guy
He is a very smart person.
"You came back from the Endless Sea? Does Jin Yuanzi know? And how is Jin Daojiu?" Chu Bai thought of Jin Daojiu. When he and Ji Mei entered the grotto, Jin Daojiu stayed outside.
, and the two of them stayed inside for more than thirty years, and when they came out again, Jin Daojiu had long disappeared.
"Both of them are very good. I arrived at Hanging Island first, and then Jin Yuanzi sent someone to send me out of the Endless Sea, so I came to Yunzhou."
"Well, these father and son are not bad, they are very loyal!" Chu Bai nodded and then asked: "Is there any news?" He was referring to Lan Meng and Jiang Dongxue.
"There is a piece of news, but it cannot be confirmed. I have been looking for it for several years and haven't found it, but I think that person is related to the Lan Meng you mentioned." Zhao Ziliang has been helping Chu Bai to find out the news for so many years, and now, he actually
Really brought back important news.
Chu Bai's expression was startled. In fact, he didn't expect anything, but when he heard Lan Meng's words, he couldn't help but stood up suddenly, took a deep breath, and said, "Say."
"The thing is like this." Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said: "About fourteen years ago, when I was buying information everywhere in Leizhou, an informant sent me news about a stranger."
"Irregulars?" Chu Bai frowned. There are many aliens in this world. Isn't Master Hei Baizi an alien?
"Well." Zhao Ziliang said: "The content of this news is that there is a stranger, a legendary Buddha. This Buddha walks around the world barefoot. There is a Buddha named 'Zen Ji', and others also call him Zen Ji monk or Zen Ji."
Zen master."
"At the beginning, I didn't know who this Zen machine was. Later, after I inquired in detail, I suddenly discovered that this Zen machine was a very famous great stranger. His cultivation reached the sky and the earth, and he walked barefoot on the Jiuzhou continent.
, he practiced medicine to save the world. Wherever he walked, he could cure anyone who was sick. Legend has it that he could even revive the flesh and bones of the dead."
"But he has a quirk, that is, he never treats people who are cultivators. He only saves ordinary people."
"It may be that this person's behavior has caused dissatisfaction among some monks. Countless monks have found trouble with him in the past, even monks who have overcome tribulations. However, even monks who have overcome tribulations will be influenced by him when they come in front of him.
.”
"Probation?" Chu Bai raised his eyebrows, not knowing what he meant.
"Yes, it's inspiration!" Zhao Ziliang said: "He doesn't use any hands or magic weapons. He just recites some scriptures and can restrain the masters of transcending tribulations, making them kneel in front of him, and the masters of transcending tribulations kneel in front of him.
After that, as if the soul has been comforted, after returning home, I must burn incense and pray every day and believe in this stranger."
"Of course, there are very few monks who believe in him, but among the people, in some rural places and villages in Jiuzhou, his Buddha statues are enshrined. Legend has it that worshiping him can lead to bliss and peace."
"Tell me the important point!" Chu Bai listened for a long time. They were all talking about the old monk, but there was no news about Lan Meng.
"Listen to me." Zhao Ziliang rolled his eyes and said: "This old guy used to travel around the world barefoot alone, but in recent years, news has spread that there is a little novice monk beside him, who is also barefoot, but
But half of her arm was missing, and some people have seen this little novice and said that she has a bulging chest and a big butt, so she looks like a woman."
"Also, this little novice monk has no cultivation base."
"And the reason why I pay attention to the old monk and the young novice monk is because the characteristics of the young novice monk are very similar to Lan Meng. However, the two dragons have disappeared. I heard that they appeared in Leizhou more than ten years ago, but they were just
It was short-lived and then disappeared. I also went to some remote places to search and visit, but there was no trace of the two of them. However, in those remote places, many people worship the great monk's Buddha statue."
"Also, these two people who traveled barefoot across the Nine Continents were in Leizhou more than ten years ago, and may be in other continents now."
"If you say that, maybe it's Sister Lan, but maybe it's not. Jiuzhou is so huge that there are too many people who have lost their arms." Chu Bai took a deep breath and turned around in the room.
In fact, he was slightly moved. The tattoo on Lan Meng's back was the flower of the other side. She had some connections with Buddhism. Also, he subconsciously thought that if there were people who practiced Buddhism in Jiuzhou, they must have come from the secular world.
.
Because the so-called Buddhism was born in the secular world. He has been in this world for so many years, but he has never heard of people who practice Buddhism, and there are no monks who believe in Buddhism. So if there are monks, there are people who practice Buddhism.
Most of the people who came here smuggled themselves over from the secular world.
And Lan Meng also came from the secular world, so if the monk can meet her, the two of them will definitely be together.
"That's all. I can't find them, and I can't contact you, so I can only come back here. Fortunately, you are back." After Zhao Ziliang finished speaking, he stood up and continued: "I'll go and talk to you.
Brothers, you are having a good time, hey, if you have any orders, call me again." After saying that, the guy ran away without waiting for Chu Bai to answer.
"Buddhist, a stranger, a broken arm, a woman, barefoot, the power of vows, the power of faith..."
"Wish power?" When Chu Bai thought of this, his eyes immediately lit up, because he thought of a possibility, that is, the reason why the Zen machine allowed others to worship him and believe in him was to collect the unique power of faith of Buddhist monks.
Collect willingness.
And after he collects the power of vows, he will practice with the power of vows, and this kind of practice method he has heard of in the secular world.
What's more, this kind of belief is very mysterious. Those who believe in it can really get protection from praying to the Buddha statue. In other words, the Buddha statue left by the monk will be induced by the Zen machine while in silence.
Arrived.
After Chu Bai walked around the room a few times, he suddenly strode out of the Dan Pavilion and came outside.
At this time, there were several minor cultivators outside carrying medicinal herbs, or waiting for Chu Bai's instructions at any time. These people were Xiaoyao Sect disciples who followed him in alchemy making. Although they were not officially accepted as disciples, the relationship between them was
But also very close.
"Tuo Bo, Tian Qing, you two come here." Chu Bai called over an alchemy disciple named Tuo Bo and Tian Qing, both of whom were alchemy disciples with golden elixir cultivation.
"Great Elder." Two minor cultivators immediately ran over and bowed their waists at ninety degrees. They respected Chu Bai very much, and they helped Chu Bai refine alchemy. They were also close to the water tower and had a very high status in Xiaoyao Sect.
"Tuobo, I remember you are from the Buzhou Mountains, right?" Chu Bai asked with a smile.
When he was with these alchemy disciples, he would often ask about their life experiences, origins, etc.
"Yes, my disciple is from the southeast ridge of Buzhou Mountain." Tuobo immediately replied.
"Tian Qing, your home is further away, in Qibei Mountain, it's 170,000 miles away from here, right?" Chu Bai continued to ask.
"Yes." Although Tian Qing didn't know what Chu Bai meant, he nodded immediately.
"Then your home is all in the countryside. Do any of you country people worship Buddha? Do you believe in a Buddhist?"
"Yes!" Their eyes lit up at the same time, and they said: "My uncle's family believes in a Buddhist. That Buddhist saved my uncle's ancestors back then. I heard from my uncle that if you believe in Buddhism, you can reach heaven.
, no disaster or calamity.”
"Yes, my family believes in that Buddhist. There is a Buddha statue in the ancestral hall of my family. On every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, my family members will bathe, burn incense, and pray to the Buddha statue."
"Let's go, take me to your hometown!" When Chu Bai heard this, he suddenly rolled up his big sleeves and directly rolled up the two alchemy disciples and flew out of the mountain. At the same time, his consciousness also said to Jia Le
Leave a message, claiming to go out to do errands and will be back soon.
