The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 96: White-robed Dragon Girl, Immortal Burns Incense

In the temple.

Zhang Jiuyang bowed to the statue of the Dragon King, burned incense, and inserted it into the incense burner.

"My friend and I are trapped by the evil soldiers tonight. I beg the Dragon Girl to help us..."

Listening to his words, Erye shook his head and sighed.

I thought he had some solution, but it turns out this kid knows nothing. Does he really think burning incense is so simple?
The dragon woman's son is indifferent and unconcerned with worldly matters. She absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and the moon in the Yunmeng Lake. Her Taoism is unfathomable. How could she be invited just like that?
If the old Dragon King who was about to become an immortal was a kind god who liked to help the weak, then this Dragon Girl was a deity who was completely unconstrained by the constraints of good and evil and lived in harmony with the world.

Even if the people of a city died in front of her, she would not blink an eye, just like people would not care about the rise and fall of an ant nest.

The Second Master is already waiting to die at this moment.

Even he, who had a remote relationship with the Dragon Girl, couldn't be invited, so what could Zhang Jiuyang, a small cultivator in the second realm, use to invite him?
Just because he is young and has thick hair?
The Second Master sneered.

"Hey, the incense didn't break this time, Brother Nine is so amazing!"

Ali exclaimed.

The Second Master said disdainfully: "This is because the Dragon Girl simply ignored this weak incense, just like those mortals who came to pray for rain, what's so great about it."

He felt as if he had regained a little face.

At least the dragon girl paid attention to me.

Sure enough, the sense of superiority comes from comparison...

Boom!

The temple was shaking more violently. The doors and windows could no longer be closed. As the cold wind blew, the scriptures written in blood became increasingly dim and were about to be unable to be blocked.

"Forget it. I was going to die anyway. I just died a little later."

The second master also let it go and sighed helplessly.

"There is one last solution."

At this time, Li Yan, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.

He picked up his iron spear, and a gleam of determination flashed in his resolute eyes. Even in this critical moment, he was still frugal with his words and took his time.

"The door is broken, I will cover your retreat."

There were less than two hours left until dawn, so he decided to stay behind alone to cover their retreat, allowing Zhang Jiuyang and the others to break through the back wall and escape.

This Dragon King Temple was his final battlefield.

Zhang Jiuyang immediately shook his head and said, "Although I am not from your Imperial Observatory, I will not abandon my companions and run away alone."

He drew out his sword to slay the ghosts, and said loudly, "General Li, why don't we have a competition later to see who killed more ghost soldiers before he died?"

Li Yan was startled, and his gaze towards Zhang Jiuyang softened a little.

If at the beginning, he had to protect Zhang Jiuyang just for the mission, later at the banquet, because of Luo Ping, he began to have a little respect for Zhang Jiuyang.

Now, he has gradually come to regard Zhang Jiuyang as a comrade-in-arms fighting side by side with him on the battlefield.

Not everyone can face death so calmly and sacrifice themselves so heroically.

In Zhang Jiuyang, he seemed to see the group of brothers who had gone through life and death together.

"And me, I want to kill the ghost soldiers too!"

Ah Li raised her small kitchen knife and said excitedly: "Ah Li's knife is very fast, don't lose to me~"

Zhang Jiuyang and Li Yan looked at each other and then laughed out loud together.

At the critical moment of life and death, this serious man seemed to open his heart. He, who had never liked ghosts, actually reached out and touched Ali's head.

"I didn't expect that I, Li Yan, would be able to make two friends before I die."

One is called Zhang Jiuyang and the other is called Jiang Youli.

Snapped!
The door is broken.

The dark fog surged in, and the evil soldiers came to kill.

The three men were fearless and were about to start a killing spree when suddenly a faint voice was heard. The army of ghost soldiers in the dark fog seemed to have sensed something and quickly stopped.

Was there a hint of panic and fear in those eyes with flickering will-o'-the-wisp fire?

The second master, who had closed his eyes waiting to die, suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils were filled with shock, and there was a hint of disbelief in his ecstasy.

"Dragon roar, it's a dragon roar!"

In the blink of an eye, the dragon's roar came from far away, as if it had flown hundreds of miles away in an instant.

Boom!

Along with the majestic and loud dragon roar was the deafening thunder.

Suddenly, there was a violent storm and thunderclouds in the sky.

A white dragon, about a hundred feet long, with scales as crystal clear as jade, was flying in the clouds. Its horns were like a deer, its head was like a camel, its eyes were like a rabbit, its neck was like a snake, its belly was like a clam, its scales were like fish, its claws were like an eagle, its paws were like a tiger, and its ears were like a cow.

She seemed to have gathered the advantages of all living things, born from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, powerful, mysterious and noble.

In the vast sea of ​​myths and legends, dragons are frequent visitors in stories and often play important roles. They are the objects of yearning and worship of countless creatures.

That night, a white dragon from the 600-li Yunmeng Lake arrived in Luotian County, riding on the clouds and mist, and howling at the wind and thunder.

The heavy rain poured down, dispersing a lot of the dark fog.

Immediately afterwards, countless lightning bolts fell from the clouds, illuminating the dark night as if it were day.

Boom!

The earth shook and dirt flew everywhere.

The courtyard in the temple was suddenly charred black, with potholes all over the ground, and still emitting streaks of burnt smoke.

I don’t know how many ghost soldiers were turned into ashes in the thunder just now, even including the general in golden armor.

Dragons are born to be the darlings of wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

Roar!
The dragon roar sounded again.

A huge dragon head poked out of the thundercloud, with a slender neck, flying scales and claws, and dragon horns that were glass-colored, like crystal, covered with lightning and mist.

Zhang Jiuyang seemed to hear the sound of waves in his ears.

"Oops!"

The Second Master seemed to have thought of something, and said with a pale face: "If the ghost soldiers don't retreat, given the character of the Dragon Girl, she might cause a flood to submerge the entire Luotian County!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jiuyang and Li Yan's expressions changed.

This dragon girl is just as the second master said. She does not have the slightest concept of good and evil. She can send down thunder to help you, but she also does not mind flooding the city and causing great suffering to all the people.

Zhang Jiuyang was a little anxious. He didn't want to cause a flood in Jinshan Mountain. If his incense stick led to countless casualties in Luotian County, he would feel guilty.

The ghost soldiers were frightened by the might of the thunder dragon and stopped advancing, but new ghost soldiers continued to appear in the dark fog, and it seemed that they would not give up until they caught those people.

The white dragon seemed to be enraged, with mist rising from its horns, as if it was about to raise a huge wave to submerge everything below.

But at this moment, Zhang Jiuyang picked up another stick of incense and prepared to continue burning incense to stop her from flooding Luotian County.

A hint of helplessness flashed across the white dragon's eyes, and the mist on the dragon's horns was no longer there.

A cold, pure voice, like a glass jade bead, rang in his ears.

"Stop burning incense. I can't eat that much."

Zhang Jiuyang paused while holding the incense hand.

The next moment, the white dragon flew out of the thundercloud, wrapped in lightning all over the sky, and rushed towards the army of ghost soldiers.

Boom!

Bolts of lightning fell one after another, turning the evil soldiers into ashes. Wherever the dragon's body went, it turned into a lake of lightning. The masculine and domineering power of thunder filled the space between heaven and earth.

The white dragon actually took the initiative to charge into the dark fog, like a dragon that broke into the underworld and caused chaos in the netherworld.

Although they could not see the battle situation clearly due to the obscuration of the dark fog, they could hear the loud and clear dragon roars and the wailing screams of the ghost soldiers.

Obviously, this was a battle of overwhelming victory.

Ali's eyes widened, full of envy.

"Brother Nine, I want to ride a dragon—woo!"

Zhang Jiuyang quickly covered her mouth, sweating profusely.

This little guy really dares to say anything.

Riding a dragon?

You may think that Brother Nine didn't die fast enough!

After an unknown amount of time, the white dragon flew out from the dark mist. Zhang Jiuyang noticed that there seemed to be a few tiny scars on her jade-white dragon scales, but they were not serious.

And the army of ghost soldiers has been wiped out.

This time, no new ghost soldiers appeared, and the dark fog no longer spread, but dissipated little by little. The white fog covering Luotian County finally disappeared completely.

Groan!
With a dragon's roar, the clouds and fog dissipated, the wind stopped and the rain stopped, the thick thunderclouds also disappeared, and the bright moon was in the sky, illuminating the world.

A sentence suddenly emerged in Zhang Jiuyang's mind.

Shou Deyun Kai see Yueming.

He had gone through too many things tonight and had almost escaped death. If the white dragon had not appeared in the end, he would have been fighting a fierce battle with the ghost soldiers at this moment.

Either die in battle or hold on until dawn.

Even if he survives, he will be seriously injured.

"It seems that the Dragon Girl has finally taken into account the past favor."

Erye felt that he was back to normal and looked radiant. He asked Ali to help him tidy up his messy and sparse hair, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

He definitely didn't think that the Dragon Girl was invited by that boy. Given the Dragon Girl's personality, how could she care about a stranger?

In all likelihood, the Dragon Girl felt a little guilty and eventually came to save him.

"Everyone, pay attention. The Dragon Girl will show up and chat with me soon. Don't lose face for me, the Second Master!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the white dragon flying in the sky disappeared, and a slender and graceful figure slowly walked out from under the moon, with lotus flowers blooming at every step.

Her hair was as white as clouds and mist, and her clothes were as white as snow. Her immortal body seemed to be emitting a faint holy glow, as if the bright moon from the sky had fallen to the earth and transformed into a beauty.

Even with a veil on, one could still glimpse a glimpse of her otherworldly beauty through her beautiful eyes and eyebrows.

Her feet seemed to be riding on a wisp of cloud, floating like a feather, light as mist. After just a few steps, she arrived at the temple.

She stood gracefully, her clothes spotless, her jet-black hair simply tied up with a cinnamon twig, cascading to her waist like a waterfall, smooth as brocade and lustrous as satin.

Zhang Jiuyang's heart was slightly shaken.

In Chinese mythology, dragon girls have always been synonymous with beauty. The legendary dragon girls all have stunning beauty that can overwhelm a country.

But even though he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the dragon girl's beauty.

As the Dragon Girl slowly approached, one could see her snow-like skin and feel her unique temperament that was so different from the mundane world and otherworldly.

Especially those glassy blue pupils, which are like the ice-blue lake on the snow-capped mountains, or like lotus flowers blooming in the lake. They can be admired from a distance but not played with.

Erye showed a warm smile on his face and said gratefully: "Thank you, Dragon Girl, for rescuing me. I——"

"None of your business."

The dragon girl's voice was very pleasant, totally unlike the intimidating dragon roar from before, but her words were merciless.

The smile on Erye's face froze.

Then, an amazing idea came to my mind.

If the Dragon Girl didn't come for his love, then was it because of that boy?

how can that be!

However, the next moment, the dragon girl's voice continued to sound.

"Zhang Jiuyang, I don't like being forced by you."

After a pause, she added.

"Especially at night, when I'm sleeping."

Erye's eyes suddenly widened and became round.

Not only did the Dragon Girl reveal the name of the masked boy, but she was also... forced?

Do they know each other?

It seems... it's not just a simple acquaintance...

hiss!
The Second Master took a deep breath, thinking about it with great horror, thinking that with Dragon Girl's temper, she would not kill me...

Even Li Yan's eyes flickered, looking at Zhang Jiuyang meaningfully.

Originally in his mind, Zhang Jiuyang was the one Yue Jianhou loved and the son-in-law of the 200,000-strong Jizhou Army, but now it seems that this guy is not that simple.

I wonder if the lady has been kept in the dark?
Ali looked at the Dragon Girl for a while, then at the Ninth Brother, with a trace of pain in her eyes, as if she was making a difficult decision.

Sister Ming Wang treated her very well, she was beautiful and powerful, but, but this sister Long Nu was also very beautiful, just like the fairy in the story, and also very powerful...

Which one should I choose to be my sister-in-law?

After a long while, she managed to utter a word.

"Brother Jiu, can't you just marry both of them? It's so annoying that you have to force Ali to make a choice~"

Zhang Jiuyang: “???”

……

The Dragon Girl ignored the misunderstandings of others and just looked at him quietly.

Seeing this, Zhang Jiuyang took a deep breath and clasped his fists, saying, "Thank you, Dragon Girl, for rescuing me, but how did you know my name?"

He did not introduce himself when he was burning incense, and he also wore a mask and changed his clothes. However, the dragon girl seemed to know him and called out his name.

The dragon girl stared at Zhang Jiuyang with her glass-colored pupils and said frankly: "Because only the incense you gave me is golden. If I take your incense and don't do anything, it seems that something bad will happen."

The Second Master was shocked when he heard this, and then he looked deeply at Zhang Jiuyang.

Golden incense?
He has been dealing with the underworld for many years and knows some secrets that even the Imperial Observatory is unknown.

For example, there are five colors of incense, which are divided into blue, red, white, black and yellow, collectively known as five-color incense. Among them, blue and red are more common, and most people burn incense in these two colors. Black, white and yellow have requirements for numerology and can only be offered by people with special identities.

Just like he is a ghost walker, the incense he offers is white, the incense offered by demons is black, and the incense offered by emperors and generals is yellow.

But he had heard a secret that in addition to the five-colored incense, there was also a golden incense.

That kind of incense is extremely overbearing, and contains great cause and effect. The person who receives the incense must fulfill his wishes and complete the task entrusted to him, otherwise the incense will backfire and karma will be added to the body. In the mildest case, he will be injured, and in the worst case, his golden body will be shattered and his body and soul will be destroyed!

However, those who could offer golden incense had long disappeared in ancient times.

They have a common name - Immortals!
Immortals burn incense and gods and Buddhas offer sacrifices.

Rather than offering incense, it is more like a kind of overbearing drive.

Of course, this golden incense also has many wonderful benefits.

The Second Master finally understood. No wonder the Dragon Girl came in response to the fragrance. It was just that this kid named Zhang Jiuyang...

How could he be the legendary immortal of the ninth realm?
Isn't this bullshit?
The dragon girl sighed softly, walked up to Zhang Jiuyang, stretched out her crystal-clear fingers, and gently waved them at his mouth.

Zhang Jiuyang suddenly found that he could not speak, as if his mouth had been sewn shut.

"I'm going to sleep."

"Don't force me to do things anymore. I don't like it."

……
