The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 282 Red Hair Curse, Origami Breakthrough

"Brother Zhang, but I am a Buddhist..."

Sanbao was a little hesitant. He wanted to help Zhang Jiuyang, but he didn't want to change his sect, and he was just a young monk in the first realm.

The master always said that he was a genius, but his cultivation speed was not fast.

Zhang Jiuyang smiled freely, his voice was clear and gentle, with an indescribable appeal.

“Whether it’s Buddhism or Taoism, as long as we are all working towards the same goal, we are all fellow travelers.”

"Differences in religion and factions are not important. What is important is how much better the world can become if we unite together."

Sanbao was shocked and looked at Zhang Jiuyang's back. Under the setting sun, the seemingly thin figure stood tall and majestic like a mountain.

"Little monk, let's go."

Zhang Jiuyang turned around and waved at him with a warm smile.

Sanbao smiled brilliantly, bowed deeply toward his master's grave, and then turned and walked towards Zhang Jiuyang.

……

After returning to the Lingguan Temple and temporarily settling the three treasures down, Zhang Jiuyang finally had some free time of his own.

It was already dark at this moment. He sat cross-legged on the bed, thinking about future plans while looking out the window from time to time.

Ah Li was hanging on the beam of the house, and Qingji was responsible for pushing her on the swing, and they were having a lot of fun.

Ao Ya fell asleep after eating, lying on the ground with her legs spread out. She felt cool and didn't want to be carried to the bed.

Fortunately, Yousheng was left to be taken care of by her parents, and after saving 749 lives, she would enter the underworld to practice, so he didn't need to worry about her.

Otherwise, Zhang Jiuyang felt that he would soon be able to open a kindergarten.

During the fight, when others summoned their dolls, they were all ghosts, monsters, and zombies, but I just waved my hand and a few dolls charged forward.

"Hehe, I know what Brother Nine is waiting for."

While swinging on the swing, Ah Li whispered to Qingji: "Brother Jiu is waiting for Sister Ming Wang. From just now till now, he has looked out the window more than ten times~"

"What are you waiting for her to do?"

Qingji asked stupidly.

"Of course, we have to do something shameful."

"What is shameful?"

"A lot, like fighting."

"What's so shameful about fighting? Qingji will help the master fight together!"

"You're stupid. Some fights can only be fought by Brother Nine alone..."

Qingji wanted to ask more questions, but suddenly he felt a pain in his ears.

Zhang Jiuyang attacked them left and right, lifted them up by their ears, and said unhappily, "Do you think I can't hear you?"

Ah Li was a little dissatisfied and cried out, "Ninth Brother, it was Qingji who wanted to ask, it's none of Ah Li's business!"

Qingji said angrily: "Yes, Master, it has nothing to do with Second Sister."

Ali suddenly felt a little ashamed.

"Master, I'm reporting that my second sister has been secretly reading books behind your back recently, and she also makes evil laughter, which is scary."

Ah Li: “???”

Zhang Jiuyang raised his eyebrows immediately. Ah Li, are you taking the initiative to read a book?
He picked up Ali's feet and threw her around, and a lot of messy things came out of her mouth, including a few books.

One was "Journey to the West" which he originally wrote for Ali, and the others were very unfamiliar books. When Zhang Jiuyang saw the names, he felt like he was struck by lightning.

"Journey to the West: Bajie's Trouble in the Kingdom of Daughters", "Ask the Monkey King Quietly, Is His Daughter Pretty?", "Journey to the West: Sun Wukong Plays with Chang'e Under the Moon"...

Zhang Jiuyang looked at Ah Li with an expression of disbelief.

It was like a father suddenly discovered the rebellious side of his daughter.

She is no longer the pure Ah Li...

"Who wrote these books?"

Zhang Jiuyang was so angry that he slammed the table, wanting to smash all the messy books to pieces, but after thinking it over, he held back.

Just open a book at random and take a quick glance, you will see several groups, and the content is extremely explosive.

They will all be confiscated later!
Ali immediately looked guilty and avoided the gaze.

"The people who wrote these books are so despicable, so dirty and so vile!"

Zhang Jiuyang was furious. He flipped through the book and scolded, "Isn't this leading the child astray?"

No wonder the innocent and naive Ali has started to mature precociously recently.

Ok?
No, why does this writing style look familiar?

And these scenes seem to be the nonsensical fantasies that flashed through my mind before...

Ah Li raised her head weakly and whispered, "Brother Jiu, these are what you wrote."

Zhang Jiuyang was immediately extremely surprised. Although these thoughts flashed through his mind, he had never written them down. This was certain.

At this time, Ali took out a paper man, who looked exactly like Zhang Jiuyang.

"Brother Jiu, you are too busy and have no time to write a book for me. So I was thinking, can I fold a paper man of you and write a book for me on your behalf..."

"He works diligently and never complains, but for some reason, all he writes is this kind of stuff, and he always has a lewd smile on his face while writing—"

"Cough cough!"

Zhang Jiuyang quickly stopped her from continuing. Imagining that scene, he felt like dipping his toes on the ground.

How could a mere folded paper figure be able to vaguely sense the thoughts in his mind?
This point has never been mentioned in Erye's secret method. Although origami can make the fake look real, what is fake is still fake, and it is impossible to make the fake look real.

But Ali's origami skills can have such magical effects.

Is it because she is extremely talented in origami, or is she about to make another breakthrough in her cultivation?
“When did you write these books?”

Zhang Jiuyang asked solemnly.

Seeing that he looked unhappy, Ali thought that Brother Jiu was really angry, so she quickly stood up straight and answered honestly.

"After seeing my father and returning from the underworld."

"Brother Nine, my father seems to have been cursed. That day I was observing the curse on my father and stole a few red hairs to do research. Although I didn't find anything, for some reason, all kinds of spells have improved and my cultivation is about to break through..."

"I'm sorry, Brother Jiu, don't be angry. It's Ali's fault. Ali was wrong. Beat Ali up to vent your anger~"

Seeing Zhang Jiuyang's expression becoming more and more solemn, the little girl was frightened, her face turned pale and her eyes were filled with tears.

"Have you been feeling unwell lately?"

"Especially on your body, are there any red hairs growing?"

"No, no..."

Zhang Jiuyang opened the third eye between his eyebrows, and the golden light penetrated into the depths of Ah Li's soul. After a careful examination, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

There is no scent of curse!

The red-haired curse of the underworld obviously hides a great secret and exudes an ominous aura. Millions of ghost soldiers are infected by it, and even the Lord of the Underworld may not be unaffected. As a ghost walker, Uncle Jiang has served the underworld for half his life, and the curse on him is even more intense and frightening, far more than that of ordinary ghost soldiers.

The entire underworld seemed to be polluted by the curse.

Even when he transformed into Wang Lingguan, he was unable to completely eradicate the curse. How dare Ali, a small vicious female ghost, provoke such a thing?

So Zhang Jiuyang was really nervous just now, and now he is also a little scared.

Fortunately, Alifu is lucky enough to have a long life... Well, he is no longer alive.

Fortunately, she was lucky. Not only was she not infected with the curse, but she also turned a disaster into a blessing. Her magic and Taoism were further improved, and her origami technique had an unprecedented breakthrough.

The folded paper figure can sense some of the thoughts of this fourth-level Jindan cultivator. If it is folded from an ordinary person, wouldn’t it be able to directly replace him?
It seems even more creepy than the Painted Skin Master's technique of painting skin.

"Don't study that curse anymore. Do you hear me?"

Zhang Jiuyang said with a serious face.

"understood……"

Ah Li held one of his fingers and said carefully, "Brother Jiu, when I become stronger and my spell skills are further improved, can I continue to study it?"

Looking at her hopeful eyes, Zhang Jiuyang's heart softened.

In fact, Ali hates to delve into research, and the reason she begged like that was just because she wanted to rescue her father as soon as possible.

Zhang Jiuyang gently touched her little head and said, "Disaster level."

Ali was stunned, and then a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes.

"When you become a disaster grade, you can continue to study the red-haired curse. Of course, the premise is that I have to be by your side. You can never hide this from me!"

Ali is now at the fierce level, still some distance away from the evil level, let alone the disaster level which is equivalent to the sixth realm.

Zhang Jiuyang couldn't bear to hurt her filial piety, so he could only delay it for a while.

By the time she is promoted to the disaster level, she should have reached the seventh or even eighth realm, and would be able to ask more powerful gods to possess her. By then, with the power of the gods, it should be enough to dispel the red-haired curse.

Ali is already his biological sister, and he would rather take risks himself than let Ali take risks.

Ah Li naturally didn't know what Zhang Jiuyang was thinking. She was very encouraged and full of fighting spirit. She rushed forward and threw herself into Zhang Jiuyang's arms, smiling and saying, "Jiu Ge is the best!"

"Ali must work hard to become the most fiercest little ghost girl in the world!"

Zhang Jiuyang smiled helplessly and touched her head lovingly.

He just wants Ali to be the happiest little ghost girl in the world.

Just when the two were feeling affectionate, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Zhang Jiuyang, is it convenient for us to chat?"

Yue Ling's voice rang out.

Ah Li made a face at him and said with a smile: "Jiu Ge, you have to seize the opportunity. Ah Li really wants a sister-in-law~"

Zhang Jiuyang reached out and hit her, and Ah Li quickly turned into a puff of smoke and floated into the Yin Doll, not forgetting to kick Qingji out of the window.

Well, this kick was somewhat personal.

……

Zhang Jiuyang opened the door and his eyes lit up.

Yue Ling was not wearing armor or women's clothing. Instead, he was dressed in a moon-white brocade gown with sky-blue cloud patterns embroidered on the inside. He wore a jade crown on his head and held a long sword in his arms. An indigo hairband fell along his neatly combed black hair, gently fluttering in the night breeze.

With a face like a silver plate and bright eyes, he stood tall under the moon, exuding indescribable heroism and brightness.

"I feel a little threatened even when I walk with you."

Zhang Jiuyang joked that Yue Ling, dressed in men's clothing, would charm many ladies when she went out.

Yue Ling smiled helplessly and said, "Don't mention it. We just wiped out a den of evil practitioners who used the animal transformation method to abduct and sell people. We rescued some women, one of whom was quite pretty. She suddenly took off her clothes in front of me and wanted to repay me with her body..."

Thinking of that scene, Zhang Jiuyang suddenly felt that the people in the Imperial Observatory had quite good hidden benefits.

"Does she want to repay you? She just wants your body!"

"If you weren't so pretty, I believe she would be treated like a slave in her next life and never be able to repay you."

Zhang Jiuyang said indignantly: "Such a superficial person is so abominable. Tell me her address and I will criticize her!"

Yue Ling: “…”

"Haha, Sister Yue, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously."

Seeing that Yue Ling's eyes began to become dangerous, Zhang Jiuyang quickly laughed and changed the subject.

"By the way, I heard that you went to hunt down the Two-Faced Buddha. Did you suffer any loss?"

Although she is powerful, she has just entered the sixth realm. The Two-Faced Buddha entered the sixth realm many years ago, and his methods are strange and unpredictable. Zhang Jiuyang is afraid that she will suffer a loss.

"Don't worry, he suffers more than me."

Yue Ling waved her hand and said indifferently.

"I'm asking if you've suffered any loss."

She was slightly stunned, her eyes swept over Zhang Jiuyang, she smiled, and her voice became inexplicably softer.

"I suffered a small loss, but it's not serious."

"The Two-Faced Buddha is indeed Huangquan's second Heavenly Steed. This time, I have discovered his new trick. In addition to the Avalokitesvara Daluo Secret Mantra, he also has a magic knife hidden inside his body. When fighting, it can break out of his body and look like white bones, which is very evil."

When talking about this, not only was there no fear on her face, but instead she showed a hint of excitement, and her white jade-like face seemed to be glowing with a strange light.

The Ming King is combative.

As she improved her Ming Wang Fa, the passion to fight against heaven and earth in her heart became stronger and stronger, especially when the opponent she was fighting against was Huang Quan Tian Gan, one of the most powerful evil spirits in the world.

"Oh, right, the ghost mother said before that the two-faced Buddha should be a person who lived more than a hundred years ago, and he was a conjoined twin. I think this is a very important clue. And the Huashou Sect in the Black Sky Plan, this name comes from a Buddhist allusion..."

Once she started talking about the case, she would talk incessantly, her eyes fully focused and shining like stars.

Zhang Jiuyang sighed helplessly and interrupted her: "Let me see your injury first."

"The case is more important—"

"Let me see your wound first, otherwise there's no point in talking. I won't tell you what secrets I discovered during this trip to the underworld. And as for that crazy old man in the eighth realm, I already know his identity, but I won't tell you either."

"Zhang Jiuyang——"

"Even in the future Huangquan Banquet, Yue Ling, if you still want to cooperate with me, you must respect my opinions on some matters."

"Investigating the case is important, but your safety is more important. As my only superior, if you die, who will be able to help me in the future?"

Yue Ling was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Okay."

She gently untied the belt around her waist, and the moon-white brocade gown immediately loosened, revealing the lining underneath.

After taking off her outer shirt, she reached towards the lining and unbuttoned the buttons and ribbons, revealing a touch of snow-white skin.

"Wait, wait, where are you hurt?"

Yue Ling was silent for a moment, and after a long while, he uttered two words.

"Chest."
