The young monk stayed in Liujia Village for three days, just eating, drinking and having fun. He didn't mention anything about the catastrophe of the end of the world or the ancient events. Zhang Xiaopou didn't ask any questions and simply treated him as a young monk.
On the day he left, as if he was afraid of being heard by Ksitigarbha, the little monk whispered in his ear to Zhang Xiaozu that no matter what Zhang Xiaozu did, he would raise his hands to approve it.
Zhang Xiaozu smiled and replied, "Time will prove that your vision is very accurate."
Looking at the little monk's back, Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't help but say, "Great love is an illusion, and the seven emotions and six desires are the human world."
This sentence is addressed to Ksitigarbha God.
Zhang Xiaozhu does not deny that Ksitigarbha has great love, but believes that the great love he pursues is divorced from reality and is a false statement.
Ksitigarbha did not respond.
According to Zhang Xiaozu's instructions, a bluestone tablet was erected on the Sermon Mountain. On the tablet was engraved a sentence: The way of heaven should be in accordance with the will of all living things. Those ways that exist against the wishes of all living things, and even want to destroy the world, must be evil ways. I
Let's fight together with you all.
Su Qiufeng slightly modified the sentence Zhang Xiaozu said, making it less overbearing and domineering, but more understandable and easier to resonate with people.
The four words "I and you all" simply and straightforwardly tie Zhang Xiaozu and the Jiuzhou cultivators together, which not only emphasizes Zhang Xiaozu's status as the leader of the Nine Provinces, but also allows the Jiuzhou cultivators to subconsciously react after hearing this sentence.
I want to unite with Zhang Xiaozu.
After the news of the Qingbei spread, it received unanimous support from cultivators in all nine states.
The spread of Ksitigarbha's way of great love has encountered great obstacles, and it even makes him feel that it is more difficult than realizing his grand wish of "Hell will never be empty", because no matter where he goes, from the elderly to the children,
Neither cultivators nor ordinary people believed what he said.
Whenever he connected goodness with the way of heaven and the catastrophe of the end of the world, these people would immediately shake their heads and sneer at his words.
This is because after the chaotic flow of chaos poured back and the whole world fell into darkness, almost every citizen of Kyushu participated in the confrontation with the way of heaven. They worked together and fought hard for several times.
It took years for the light to reappear, so in their hearts, the current good life was not something they prayed for on their knees, let alone a gift from heaven, but was earned with their own hands.
Therefore, Ksitigarbha's words of "praying to heaven to reverse the disaster" are as ridiculous as a joke to the ears of the people of Kyushu.
Having already experienced the apocalypse, they are obviously not easy to coax.
However, Ksitigarbha was not discouraged or angry, but continued to walk on the land of Kyushu, calmly preaching the way of great love.
After the monks at Leiyin Temple learned about Ksitigarbha's identity, they were all excited to follow his footsteps and promote Buddhism together.
However, as the team continued to grow, it aroused the dissatisfaction of the other eight states' overlords. They believed that Leiyin Temple took the opportunity to preach in their territory was an act that crossed the line. If it weren't for Zhang Xiaopou's face, they would have expelled him long ago.
Fortunately, Leiyin Temple also felt that what they were doing was inappropriate. In the end, only ten young novice monks were left beside Ksitigarbha to take care of his food and transportation. The other monks returned to Leiyin Temple.
…
Bang bang bang…
On a wasteland to the northwest of Liujia Village, Zhang Xiaopeng was hitting clods of soil with a hoe.
These days, he has dug about five acres of wasteland, and now he needs to break up all the large clods of soil to make the soil soft and remove the grass roots inside.
This land has not been cultivated for more than 20 years, and the soil has long been hardened, requiring it to be plowed several times.
There is still more than a month left before the suitable season for planting wheat, which is enough for Zhang Xiaozu to tidy up these acres of land, not to mention the help of Qi Yoyo, Ye Mingyue, Wan Qingqiu and others.
Wan Qingqiu and others have understood and slowly adapted to Qi Yoyo's situation.
After Ye Mingyue helped the people of the Shenhaijia and Qiong tribes to awaken the divine bones, they came back from Tianwaitian and practiced at the same time.
, while living a peaceful life with Zhang Xiaozu and Qi Yoyo.
"The Map of Jiangshan Sheji" has swallowed up the third fragment, the law of power has been further completed, and the small world of thatched cottage can be constructed and improved again.
"Dad, why do you have to wait until the end of October to plant wheat? The weather has turned cold by then. Can't you plant while the weather is warm now?"
Zhang Tianci followed behind Zhang Xiaopeng, waving his hoe to turn over the soil twice, and asked in confusion.
Zhang Xiaozu replied, "We are planting winter wheat. If we plant it too early, as you said, the weather will be warm and the wheat germ will grow very fast after it breaks the ground. As a result, the cold winter will come at the jointing point of it, and the crisp and tender straw will grow overnight."
It will be destroyed by frost. Instead, wait until the weather turns cooler before sowing. After the malt breaks through the ground, it will slowly adapt to the cold weather, start the winter like some animals, and wait until the next spring when the flowers bloom."
"I see, Dad, you know so much." Zhang Tianci suddenly realized.
"When Dad was your age, he was already familiar with everything about the crops in the field." Zhang Xiaozu said with a proud smile.
Zhang Guangyao and Shen Wenjun paused when they heard this, with guilty looks on their faces. They felt that they were sorry for Zhang Xiaopou and caused him to suffer when he was a child.
Zhang Xiaozu realized that he had talked about the wrong topic and quickly changed the topic and asked Zhang Tianci, "Have you thought about it? When are you going to separate from White Ape?"
He planned to use the method devised by Taoist Ancestor from One Qi Transformation into Three Purities to separate the souls of Zhang Tianci and Bai Yuan. However, Zhang Tianci was reluctant to separate from Bai Yuan and said that he would give Zhang Xiaozu an answer after discussing with Bai Yuan. But this was all in the past.
It's been more than a month and I still haven't got a definite answer.
The same goes for Su Jin and Ni Qiufeng.
When Su Jin learned that Zhang Xiaozu had found someone who could listen to the voices of all things, he immediately rushed over from Lord Mu Dexing's fairy mansion. After chatting with Bai Ling'er, he determined that Bai Ling'er was the one the Beast Controlling Clan asked her to find.
The inheritor accepted him as his disciple and prepared to teach him how to control the beast.
Then Su Jin took Bai
Ling'er went to the Imperial Capital and said that after returning from the Imperial Capital, she asked Zhang Xiaozu to separate her from Ni Qiufeng, but it has been almost two months and she has not returned yet.
Obviously they were reluctant to separate.
Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't feel the emotional bond between Zhang Tianci and Bai Yuan, so he never urged Zhang Tianci to think about it quickly. Now he just asked casually and respected Zhang Tianci's decision.
"Dad, can I not separate from Xiaobai?" Zhang Tianci asked.
"Is it that he doesn't want to let go or that you don't want to let go?"
"Xiaobai grew up with me, and I don't want to be separated from him."
"What about it? What's the idea?"
"It says it doesn't matter."
Zhang Xiaozu stopped the hoe, thought for a while, and said, "You have your life, and the white ape has the life of the white ape. If you don't separate from it, it will be equivalent to hijacking its life, or it hijacks yours."
Dad thinks this is not a good life. In fact, you can still be together after your souls are separated, and you can also sign a contract of mutual agreement, just like Dad and Bai Hu. Of course, Dad respects your decision and will not force you to separate."
Zhang Tianci nodded, "Let's discuss this with Xiaobai again."
…
On October 15th, Su Jin returned from the imperial capital and had decided to separate from Ni Qiufeng.
Zhang Xiaozu used his magic to successfully separate Ni Qiufeng's soul from Su Jin's soul.
Ni Qiufeng reshaped her body and finally restored her appearance. However, she did not rush to restore her cultivation. Instead, she unexpectedly gave the Fire Phoenix to Su Jin, saying that she would practice a new Tao from scratch, and ordered Zhang Xiaozu to send her there quickly.
Lord Mu Dexing's fairy mansion wants to ask Qingqu for advice on swordsmanship.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately understood what she was thinking, and they all laughed and said nothing.
Su Jin returned to the imperial capital and planned to continue teaching at Taiping College.
(Grandma passed away suddenly, so I asked for a leave. Alas, in just a few months, I had to send away two close relatives in succession, and I felt really bad.)
