The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 366: Letter from the Dragon Girl, Past Events in Huangquan

"How is your stay at the mansion?"

In the yard, Zhang Jiuyang looked at Yousheng and took the initiative to show concern.

Yousheng smiled and said happily: "Not bad, except that I am a little tired, but I like what I am doing now, Tianshi, don't worry about me."

At this moment, she seemed to show some childishness.

Zhang Jiuyang sent her to the door and reminded her, "That's good. If you need help with anything in the future, you can come to me. You have become a Yin God, so you should know how to enter dreams."

Yousheng nodded vigorously, looked up at Zhang Jiuyang, and said, "Tianshi, don't you want to ask me something about the Lord of the Mansion?"

She knew that although the Lord of the Underworld and Wang Lingguan had reached an agreement, there were still some grudges between the two sides because of Wang Lingguan's rampage in the underworld.

Zhang Jiuyang smiled and said, "You work under the Lord of the Mansion. It seems that He thinks highly of you. There are some things that you don't need to tell me. Just do things that you can be clear about."

A gentleman does not put his friends in a dilemma.

Although Yousheng converted to the Lingguan Temple, she is now working under the Lord of the Mansion, and the Lord of the Mansion treats her well. Although Zhang Jiuyang is curious and wary of the Lord of the Mansion, he will not ask her any questions.

Yousheng was very smart and naturally understood his intention. He was touched and said with a smile: "Master, I understand!"

"In fact, even if you ask, I can't answer, because the Lord of the Mansion is very mysterious. I have only seen Him once and have never met Him in person."

"However, there are some things that I have wanted to tell you for a long time, but I have been busy with official duties, and you... didn't like me very much before, so I didn't dare to come to meet you."

Hearing her words, Zhang Jiuyang's heart moved, and he asked with a smile: "What's the matter?"

"There are two things. The first one is about the two-faced Buddha."

Zhang Jiuyang perked up, exchanged a glance with Yue Ling beside him, and then opened his third eye in tacit understanding to observe the surroundings.

Although Yousheng had already cast a spell to block out the sound before, Yue Ling was still worried and cast another soundproof spell.

The reason why the Ghost Mother was able to escape from the East China Sea was because the Two-Faced Buddha was behind the scenes fanning the flames. After she escaped, it was also the Two-Faced Buddha who planned for her to reincarnate and cultivate again, so that she could completely get rid of the pursuit of the Imperial Observatory and Jiange.

The plan went very smoothly. If it hadn't happened to meet Zhang Jiuyang who was fortune-telling for others in the Lingguan Temple, it would probably have succeeded.

The reason why the Two-Faced Buddha helped the Ghost Mother to make plans was that he wanted to get her to join the Black Sky Plan. He also promised the Ghost Mother in person that when her strength gradually recovered, he would inform her of the next plan.

It now seems that the Two-Faced Buddha does not know that the Ghost Mother is already "dead" and is now the reborn Yousheng.

"Master, I know you care about the Two-Faced Buddha very much, so I pretended to be a ghost mother and flattered him. He was very happy that I became the Yin God of the Underworld and was valued by the Lord of the Underworld, and he invited me to help him deliver a special child."

"Special child?"

Zhang Jiuyang's eyes were filled with ripples, and he asked, "What child is it?"

"I don't know. The two-faced Buddha just said that the time was not right and asked me to ensure that the child would survive. He never contacted me again after that."

Zhang Jiuyang subconsciously glanced into the room.

There, Xiaoyu was sleeping, and Dashachun was holding his son, unable to let go, with a simple smile on his face.

The little guy seemed to know that his mother was resting. He didn't cry, but just opened his clear big eyes and kept touching his father's beard with his little hands.

Zhang Jiuyang's gaze stayed on him.

Could that special child be him?
If we talk about specialness, the combination of human and demon is not tolerated by heaven. It is definitely the most special child Zhang Jiuyang has ever seen, and also the most difficult child to give birth to.

If Yousheng had not intervened, the outcome would probably have been one death and two lives.

In addition, there is the "Heart Sutra of the White Bone Bodhisattva", which has a strong Western Tantric temperament. Zhang Jiuyang remembers that the "Avalokitesvara Mantra" of the Two-Faced Buddha is the practice of Nalanda Temple, a holy place in the Western Regions.

One coincidence is a coincidence, but when two coincidences are put together, something is wrong.

Zhang Jiuyang remained calm, but he smelled the scent of a big fish in his heart.

"As for the second thing..."

Yousheng paused and turned to look at Yue Ling.

"I'll leave first—"

"No need."

Zhang Jiuyang said firmly: "Yousheng, just tell me, I absolutely trust Yue Ling."

Yousheng nodded, his expression suddenly a little embarrassed, and said: "The second thing is about...Sister Ao Li."

Ao Li?

Zhang Jiuyang was stunned.

Upon hearing this, Yue Ling took a step forward and asked quickly, "Do you know about the white loach?"

Yousheng was a little surprised. Sister Ao Li had never told her about Yue Ling. She could feel that Sister Ao Li cared about Zhang Tianshi very much and even liked him.

However, she also knew that Zhang Tianshi and Yue Ling seemed to be a couple who were about to get married, so she hesitated whether to say it or not.

But she didn't expect that Sister Yue Ling also cared about her so much.

"Sister Ao Li found one of the ten infants left by the ghost mother in the Penglai Palace. She subdued it and often communicated with me through the ghost infant. She could also pass on some simple items."

Yue Ling showed a look of realization and said, "This ghost mother is really cunning. She actually left one of the ghost babies in Penglai Fairy Palace."

The reason why the Ghost Mother is difficult to deal with is because she has a natural magical power that allows her to give birth to ten ghost babies and hide them all over the world.

If the real body dies, one can be resurrected with the help of the ghost baby's body.

The plan that the Imperial Observatory had previously formulated to deal with the Ghost Mother was to capture and imprison her first, then find all the ghost babies and eliminate them, and finally kill the Ghost Mother.

Now it seems that this plan has no chance of success, because the Imperial Observatory cannot find the Penglai Palace no matter what.

Zhang Jiuyang's eyes were blank. After a while, he lowered his head to look at the purple gold gourd on his waist, and then looked at Yousheng. In a trance, he seemed to understand something.

"So, you are the new Taiyin?"

Zhang Jiuyang suddenly asked, his eyes sparkling.

Yousheng nodded and said frankly: "Master, you are wise. I have temporarily replaced Sister Ao Li and inherited the name of Taiyin."

She told him everything frankly.

It turned out that after Ao Li established contact with her through the ghost baby, she gradually determined that she was a kind person. In addition, Yousheng was born in the Lingguan Temple and admired Zhang Jiuyang very much. So she made a decision to give her Huangquan Order through the ghost baby, so that Yousheng could continue to help Zhang Jiuyang lurking in Huangquan as Taiyin.

"This is a letter from Sister Ao Li."

"This letter is for Sister Yue Ling."

Yousheng took out two letters from his arms, handed one to Zhang Jiuyang and the other to Yue Ling.

He held the letter, took a breath slowly, then opened it, unfolded the letter paper, and saw the beautiful and elegant handwriting on it.

"Zhang Jiuyang, I'm sorry."

The first sentence, with its long-lost familiar tone, made Zhang Jiuyang couldn't help but smile.

"When you read this letter, you should have known from Yousheng that I am Taiyin. Taiyin is Taiyi, and Taiyi gave birth to water. What I like most is water, so I used the name Taiyin."

"I joined Huangquan because I did kill a lot of people in the past."

"They were all soldiers from the government. They wanted my dragon scales, dragon blood, dragon meat, and inner elixir to make elixirs for the old emperor. I remembered how desperately my father had protected them, but they wanted to harm Xiaoya and me. In a rage, they raised a flood and drowned them all."

"I don't like this court."

"After the huge waves that drowned tens of thousands of soldiers, I picked up the Yellow Spring Order and met Tianzun. I also don't like this place, but I also want to work hard to improve my cultivation so that I can find out the truth of that year."

"Zhang Jiuyang, Huangquan is too dangerous. You can't be alone in there, so I gave the Huangquan Order to Yousheng and asked her to continue to support you in Huangquan on my behalf..."

The letter was not very long, but Zhang Jiuyang read every word carefully.

Between the lines, one could feel Ao Li's care and concern for him. She did not mention her current situation, but Zhang Jiuyang knew that she must be having a hard time.

Apart from anything else, just living alone and helpless in a fairy palace full of dangers, and seeing countless corpses of your own people every day when you open your eyes, is already a nightmare.

"I'm doing fine."

"Everything here is very interesting. There are countless treasures. The purple gold gourd I found earlier was in one of the palaces. I asked Yousheng to bring it to you. I hope it can help you."

"You don't have to worry about me, and don't come looking for me. I don't want you to take away all these treasures."

Seeing this, Zhang Jiuyang sighed lightly, shook his head and smiled.

She is still the same as always, not even knowing how to embellish her lies.

"Zhang Jiuyang, during this period of time, I always think of that night and recall that strange feeling, and then I become weird. Tell me, have I become bad?"

"The violent girl must be really pissed off. Thinking of this, I feel a little happy."

When she wrote here, her handwriting suddenly became a little sloppy, as if she had encountered some sudden change. Zhang Jiuyang opened her third eye, and then was shocked.

There were residual bloodstains on the paper, which had already dried up and had been cleaned up with magic, but they could not be hidden from the spiritual official's heavenly eye that Zhang Jiuyang had cultivated.

He saw the lingering scent of dragon blood.

Ao Li was injured!
Zhang Jiuyang's heart tightened, which meant that he guessed correctly. There was some kind of danger lurking in the Immortal Palace. Even with Ao Li's cultivation level, he would be injured there.

The danger seemed to come suddenly.

He continued to look down, and sure enough, the following words suddenly became very crisp.

"Zhang Jiuyang, when I get out of here, I will definitely return the treasure map to you. I wonder if you are still willing to continue to be my friend?"

"Finally, please tell Xiaoya that my sister misses her too."

This is the end of the letter.

Zhang Jiuyang looked up and found that Yue Ling had also finished reading. She murmured, "This white loach is still trying to be sentimental with me. Next time I see her, I must laugh at her."

Having said that, she carefully folded the letter and held it close to her body.

"Is she okay in there?"

Zhang Jiuyang looked at Yousheng and asked.

Yousheng hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head.

"Although Sister Ao Li didn't let me say it, I still can't lie to the Heavenly Master. According to our conversation, there seems to be some kind of monster in the so-called Immortal Palace."

"monster?"

"Yes, a very scary monster that always appears suddenly and is very powerful. Sister Ao Li is often injured, and the jade liquid in the purple gold gourd is what she uses to heal her wounds."

Zhang Jiuyang's heart skipped a beat. Without any hesitation, he immediately handed the treasure gourd to her and said, "Please return the gourd to her immediately!"

Ao Li must have predicted that he would be in great trouble, so he sent this life-saving gourd to him through Yousheng.

Thanks to the timely arrival of the gourd, Zhang Jiuyang recovered and did not die from the thunder.

Yousheng shook his head and said, "I won't go back yet. Only Sister Aoli can give me things through the ghost baby. I can't pass anything to the fairy palace."

Zhang Jiuyang frowned.

This fairy palace is becoming more and more weird.

giggle!
The sound of roosters crowing could be heard all around. The Yin general outside the door seemed a little anxious. The dark fog had become increasingly thinner under the sunlight.

"Master, I have to take my leave first."

Zhang Jiuyang put away his thoughts and nodded, "Okay, I don't have anything to ask you, just one sentence."

"Disciples are all ears."

"If you are unhappy in the underworld in the future, the door of the Lingguan Temple will be open to you at any time."

Yousheng's eyes trembled, and an indescribable feeling of emotion surged in his heart.

She bowed deeply one last time and then boarded the lotus chariot.

The golden-armored Yin general waved his whip impatiently, and a moment later the treasure carriage disappeared without a trace.
