It was square and empty, with no doors or windows. It closed everything and isolated everything.
It's depressing.
Or, it's safe.
There is nothing in the room.
There was only a frail little girl in a white dress, huddled in the shadow of the corner. Her slender hands hugged her knees and she was crying with her face buried in her face.
Like a small white flower that can be broken in the wind at any time.
Her cries were also so weak that she didn't dare to let others hear her. They were intermittent and faint.
"Stand up! Stand up!"
Suddenly a sharp and vicious voice sounded outside the room. The voice quickly moved from far to near, as if it was going to smash the room into pieces: "Zhu Biqiong, how could you do this to a stinky man!"
The little girl in a white dress trembled all over and raised her head——
At this moment, her quiet eyes were looking at herself in the mirror.
The Zhu Biqiong in the mirror is wearing the true evangelical uniform of Diaohailou, sitting quietly on a bamboo stool, like a picture of a lady fixed in the mirror. Her black hair hangs down her shoulders, her expression is cold and silent, her brows are unruffled, and her eyes are unwavering.
Was he young and timid?
The offshore islands are in perfect spring. Here on Wai Island, white-browed azaleas are blooming all over the place.
This kind of azalea, unique to Waishima, is named after its petals have two white horizontal stripes. Therefore, it is said that "the beloved has not returned, and the azalea has turned white."
When Grandma Bizhu was still alive, she liked this flower very much. She often sat alone and admired it.
At that time, Zhu Biqiong didn't quite understand that kind of mood.
At this time, she was sitting in her private courtyard in Huai Island, holding a wooden comb with her green-white jade fingers, combing her long hair carefully.
You can still hear the leisurely crashing sound of the waves, and there are still blue-billed gulls flying freely outside the window.
As the true successor of Elder Jinghai of Diaohailou, Zhu Biqiong's life in the offshore islands should be worry-free.
She herself has considerable strength among the younger generation, and Gu Huaixin is such a real person in the world who protects her shortcomings.
But she combed her hair slowly, as if she had forgotten how to comb her hair. There seemed to be something hidden under the water in her calm eyes.
In this spring full of vitality, there is a morning full of infinite hope.
The bronze mirror in front of her suddenly became rippled like water.
The face reflected in the mirror, in the distorted ripples, transformed into the face of another woman. The eyebrows and eyes were vaguely similar to Zhu Biqiong, but the facial features that should have been gentler and more majestic turned out to be vicious.
They moved together, showing a very spiteful expression.
"Zhu Biqiong! How long are you going to hide from me?!"
She yelled this sentence sinisterly, her voice was sharp and gentle, and her face was spread out like a pancake: "Have you forgotten how your sister takes care of you and how good she is to you?"
Zhu Biqiong stopped combing her hair: "No, I didn't hide from you."
"Then what are you thinking about?" The woman in the mirror asked with concern: "You haven't practiced well these days..."
Zhu Biqiong's eyelids drooped slightly, hiding many emotions in the deep sea.
What are you thinking about?
I remember the timid little girl I once was.
I remember that before Jiang Wang went to the demon world, he came to the offshore islands to look for her and wanted to thank her in person.
But she didn't see it.
She just doesn't want thanks from friends.
But I didn't expect that that hesitation would lead to goodbye forever.
"Why don't you speak?" The woman in the mirror suddenly moved closer to the face, and began to lose her temper again. The malice in her eyes almost burst out of the bronze mirror: "Are you thinking about that Jiang Wang again? He's dead.
What do you think! He is just a hypocrite who is just trying to gain fame and reputation, using you as a pawn. He originally saved you because of the Qi State's plan, and wanted to shake the authority of Diaohailou. Why can't you see clearly? Only your sister in this world will treat you sincerely.
Hello, Zhu Biqiong! Why don’t you understand?!”
"Zhu Biqiong, speak! Zhu Biqiong!"
The woman in the mirror kept chattering: "Zhu Biqiong! You——"
"Stop shouting!" Zhu Biqiong stood up suddenly and shouted back!
But the emotions that broke out in a moment were forcibly suppressed by her. She looked at Zhu Suyao's shocked and injured expression in the mirror, turned away and said in a low voice: "I'm very tired, sister."
"Hahahaha..." The woman in the mirror was shocked at first, then in pain, and then she laughed sharply: "You are actually mean to me, you are mean to your own sister for a stinky man, for an outsider?!
"
"Are you still a human being? Do you have a conscience?" She bared her teeth and claws, furious: "Who raised you? Who protected you? Who fed you and clothed you? You are simply a beast!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
I am a little girl, and I also want to be taken care of... I will stick to you for all the good things. I finally got into the Immortal Sect, and I want to take you with me. My mother-in-law said that your qualifications are not good, so I knelt down outside her door.
Just three days...Biqiong, didn't my sister treat you badly? What did I do wrong? I live hard and treat others sincerely. I have never had any intention of harming others, and I have never done anything bad. But why do those people
You're just using me, but you're hurting me? I'm obviously the one who got hurt, so why do you all think it's me who's wrong? Why do even my most beloved sister dislike me? Why, oh oh oh...
…”
Her cry was like a crow, high-pitched and hoarse, scratching her eardrums.
Zhu Biqiong walked to the washbasin by the window, looked at the blue waves not far away, lowered her head and buried her face in the water.
The world is purified.
Close your eyes and the world is not completely dark.
In the boundless dark world, there is always the outline of a human figure. Just like that long sleep, when the consciousness becomes more and more drowsy, I always remember that face in my mind——
That face that was really sad for her, really sad for her.
She still remembers that angle.
The angle of inclination.
She was held in his arms for the first time as a dying friend.
At that time, she was still very weak and could not open her eyes very well, but she opened them with great force and greedily looked at his jawline, his profile, and his eyes looking straight ahead.
The pain didn't seem so painful at that time.
He is getting closer and closer...
Zhu Biqiong suddenly opened her eyes.
But under the water of the washbasin, I saw a face with a familiar but blurred outline.
Wow!
She suddenly raised her head and escaped from the washbasin.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta!
The water drops on his face fell on the water in clusters, creating tiny ripples in circles.
Zhu Biqiong gasped for air, but suddenly her breath stopped.
In the gilt washbasin, under the ripples, the face she saw in her dream, in the water, and in her memory unexpectedly reappeared.
Escaped from imagination and broke into reality. It carved memories and painted expectations.
In the swaying water, the blurry face gradually became clear——
It is the moon in the water that cannot be grasped.
Qingyang was a teenager in a trance!
…
…
"Tsk tsk tsk."
Chai Asi looked at himself in the mirror, wearing a neat black military uniform he bought at a high price and a stylish red cloak given by Yuan Xiaoqing.
It is said that Buddha relies on gold and demons rely on clothes.
This outfit, coupled with the body that is already quite strong after practicing the magic skills.
How chic and majestic!
These eyebrows, these eyes, this temperament.
I really didn't know how to dress up before, so my face was ruined for nothing.
The most handsome man in the Flower and Fruit Society, who else could he be compared to me?
After Gu Fang admired herself for a while, she moved her hair slightly so that her bangs were parted at the right angle.
Chai Asi completed all the preparations, bowed deeply to the ancient mirror, and said, "Sir, I want to pretend to be you!"
The ancient god who should have been in the mirror:...
The new Xiang Master of the Flower and Fruit Society stood up after the ceremony, took out a beautiful cloth bag with the word "Chai" embroidered with gold thread, and put the mirror in with a smile on his face.
Of course, nominally because of respect for the ancient gods, she could not leave the ancient mirror in her hands naked, so she had to put it in a precious bag and let Yuan Xiaoqing carry it.
The final selection of the Golden Balcony Fighting Club in Moyun City has been held for several rounds.
He was beyond the expectations of other demons and made great progress all the way.
Even the president of the Flower and Fruit Society was alarmed and encouraged him more.
Ordinary little demons are not as fierce as him in swordsmanship, but they are stronger than him in swordsmanship, and they cannot cut down his invincible golden body. In addition, after every battle, the ancient god will take him to review the battle completely. Tell him.
How many opportunities did he miss in the battle, what choices did he make wrong, and how many ways to win were there.
This made his strength improve by leaps and bounds.
The heavy blows he received on the martial arts stage also made his invincible golden body improve rapidly - I don't know if it is an illusion, but the effect of the medicinal bath seems to be getting better and better recently.
He replaced all the extra rewards that Huaguo would give him with various precious medicinal materials. In short, he practiced to the point of death and drowned himself in the bath...
Our Gale Killing Sword doesn't know that he has really been soaked in medicinal soup during this period.
After all, he is competing at the moment. Every time he advances one place in the martial arts competition, he can climb a little higher. In addition, the effect of those medicinal materials on the great ancient god is getting weaker and weaker, so he simply divided half of it generously.
Come and feed him.
The main focus of "Haifeng Killing Sword Chai Asi" is martial arts and training, supplemented by the promotion of feelings with Yuan Xiaoqing, and by the way, he also manages the power of the Tao with his subordinates.
The great ancient god Jiang Wang pays equal attention to multiple approaches.
Not only should we follow Chai Asi's martial arts tour and accompany him to review every battle he fought on the martial arts stage, but we should also give Zhu Dali the support of the God of Slaughter, explain to him the philosophy of Taiping Dao, and draw a picture.
Huge cake; moreover, it must cooperate with Yuan Laoxi's expansion plan of the Faceless Cult, occasionally perform miracles, and recruit believers...
In addition to these, you also need to learn modern dog characters and translate dog characters from modern times.
In addition, the great ancient god must also give guidance to these three guys, Chai Asi, Yuan Laoxi, and Zhu Dali, in their cultivation.
There is also the treatment of one's own injuries, and one's own practice cannot be relaxed...
One breath of time should be divided into ten breaths for use.
Rao Shijiang was known for his diligence, but he said it was too much.
But fortunately there is progress.
After studying day and night these days, I finally have a certain degree of mastery of the Canine characters... It can even be said without humility that I am already proficient.
We have conducted in-depth research on the Dog Clan writings of recent times, elaborating on the meaning of each word word by word. If it were not for the powerful spiritual knowledge and divine understanding, it would be impossible to complete such a huge workload in a short period of time.
At this stage, I have a preliminary understanding of the ancient book in my hand.
Earlier, he was wondering why there were so many fancy words on the book cover, but the title of this book only had three words, which was called "Wisdom Fruit".
Sounds like a children's book.
Now I realize that it was all nonsense. Those monsters were ignorant and had no skills. They vaguely guessed a few words and gave them random names.
The original name of this book is "The Collection of Roots and Fruits of Supreme Wisdom, Divine Wisdom, and Wisdom".
It is indeed a collection of Zen Master Xiong, a powerful Buddhist sect of the demon tribe, who once lectured on the Ancient Nan Mountain. It was recorded and compiled by his disciple, the tenth Dharma King.
The main topic is "wisdom", "spiritual wisdom", "roots" and "cause and effect", and discusses the relationship between these four and Buddha. There are also some histories and comments in the middle, mainly to provide evidence for the teachings.
Nature is not objective.
But for Jiang Wang, these are the most important things.
For example, this paragraph——
Disciple Xiangmi asked: Zen Master! Where is the true Buddha? How can we believe in him? The distinction between suffering, deceiving demons, and humans cannot distinguish between the two realms. Is he a Buddha?
Zen Master Xiong said: The Buddha has no fixed fruit, the Buddha has no fixed appearance, and the Buddha has no fixed body. This is my Buddha.
Xiang Mi is a disciple of Zen Master Xiong and ranks fifth among the ten Dharma Kings. He has a very high evaluation in the history of the Yao clan. They say that he is as wise as a fool and is down-to-earth and self-suffering. At that time, he was very loved by the ancient Nanshan believers.
.It can even be said that he is the most trustworthy among the ancient Nanshan Dharma Kings.
During this conversation, Xiang Mi asked Zen Master Xiong because of the confusion and pain in his heart - where is the real Buddha? Can I believe in this Buddha? I am now confused by the differences between monsters and humans, and it is difficult to feel the monster world
The difference between the human world and this makes me extremely painful. May I ask if I am learning from Buddhism?
Xiangmi's confusion does not seem complicated, but it embodies the conflict between the Buddha of the demon race and the Buddha of the human race. As the Dharma King of the Ancient Nanshan Mountain, he has profound cultivation and high strength, but he is also suffering in the process of searching for the origin of the Buddha.
Tangled. After all, it is a method passed down from person to person, and it is difficult to completely transcend race.
Zen Master Xiong replied that Buddha has no fixed results, Buddha has no fixed appearance, and Buddha has no fixed expression. I am Buddha, so there is no need to be confused.
His answer is also easy to understand. But the key behind it is the attitude of the strong men of the demon clan and Buddhist sect towards the Buddha.
The demon clan also practices Buddhism, but they only practice their own Buddha.
The "Buddha" here is of the same nature as "Tao". It is a broad "Tao" and a specific "Dharma". But it is completely independent of Buddhism in the present world and has nothing to do with the monks of the human race.
The book has its own golden house, and the book also has its own history and answers.
The gradual determination of the contents of this "Collection of the Roots and Fruits of Supreme Wisdom, Divine Wisdom, and Wisdom" shows that the time when the World Honored One came to the demon world must have been before modern times.
Secondly, after Jiang Wang translated this passage, he speculated that——
The Buddha taught in the demon world may be the inheritance left by the World Honored One on his own initiative, rather than being imitated and absorbed by the demon clan later. Because Zen Master Xiong obviously got the true meaning of Buddha and grasped the word "Buddha", and he cultivated
Although he is the Buddha of his own demon race, he has not strayed from the core of Buddha.
The human race and demon race have a lot of learning and penetration from each other.
For example, the Yao Clan also has military strategists, Legalists, and Confucianists.
However, according to Jiang Wang's observations in the demon city during this period, these theories have been more or less deviated on the demon side. They basically originated from the word "demon". After that, they were absorbed
Confucianism in the art of war.
But only the Buddha in the demon world originated from the word "Buddha", and then moved closer to the word "demon".
Jiang Wang's second guess is——
The Buddha that the World Honored One preached in the demon world may have completely abandoned the word "human". In other words, what the World Honored One preached in the demon world was just pure Tao, and it was completely transcendent of race. In the human race or the demon race,
Beyond identity.
Perhaps this is the fundamental reason why "Buddha" has developed rapidly in the demon world, far better than other theories transmitted from the human race.
Maybe... this is also a way to fight against the demon clan's will?
Preaching the word in this world will bring great merit and great virtue.
Eliminate hostility and there will be no need for confrontation.
