Zhu Xian: Learn from the Great Ying Immortal and rebuild the Trinity School

Chapter 86 Go together
"No! This is impossible!!"

The old priest looked at the "tragedy" above him and was in a trance for a moment.

The flames roared and burst out from the gate.

The dragon tide was dyed into a blood-red sea of ​​fire.

Countless dark black snake bodies twisted and struggled in pain in the sea of ​​fire. In an area the size of an inch, there were dozens or hundreds of snakes, and their skin, flesh and scales were all shattered by the burning.

The shrill howling made the entire sky-high cave rumble and tremble.

This caused the independent cultivators who were busy fighting far away to stop fighting and gather here one after another.

"It's not the Dragon Fire at all, it's the Red Lotus Karma Fire!"

On the lotus platform, flames flickered, and Puzhi's face appeared.

The skin turned red and cracked due to the burn, like broken pieces of porcelain.

As a lay disciple of Buddhism, Fan Zengyang understands a little about this.

"The Red Lotus Karma Fire comes from the seventh of the Eight Cold Hells, also known as the Red Lotus Naraka. The Yogacarabhumi Sutra says: Anyone who has committed serious evil deeds and attempts to achieve enlightenment will be burned by this fire, and all his karma will be destroyed. I didn't expect that he would use it to achieve his own success."

Taoist Liu shook his head.

"It's not exclusive to Buddhism. There are similar things in the Three Disasters of Taoism, but they are just called differently."

"You two, now is not the time to argue about this," said Xu Zhiqiu.

Fan Zengyang continued:
"Master Puzhi is a senior monk of Tianyin Temple. He has been observing the precepts and doing good deeds for hundreds of years. Even if he has karma, it is mostly good karma, with very few bad karmas."

“So even though your skin is cracked by the red lotus fire, your life should not be in danger for the time being.”

Sure enough, Puzhi sat upright on the lotus platform. Although his face was cracked, there was no further damage.

"Didn't they say it was the fire that turned into a dragon?" Xu Zhiqiu asked the old priest beside him, "How did it become this karmic fire? What is Yu Zu's purpose?"

"I-I don't know."

The old priest looked panicked as he looked at the struggling sea of ​​fire. On the faces of each poisonous dragon, a human head seemed to appear, revealing expressions of fear and pain.

After being burned by the karmic fire, the bodies of these poisonous dragons collapsed and they gradually lost their form.

Suddenly, the souls appeared and transformed into illusory human figures, struggling to float up and down in the sea of ​​fire.

In this way, although the cries and curses became louder and louder, they were real human voices.

Naturally, it was extremely heartbreaking for the old priest to hear.

As if being purified by a furnace, tens of thousands of dragons were burned away and transformed into the purest purple-black thick paste.

Amidst the cries and shouts, those souls were burned to pieces by the karmic fire and merged into the thick slurry.

Flesh, blood, soul, all mixed into a tens of feet tall, purple-black embryo, quietly floating in the void.

The karmic fire was burning around the edge of the embryo, like a burning ball of flesh.

Everyone, including Puzhi and the dry bones in the coffin, were wrapped in the embryo.

Perhaps because of the two foreign bodies, golden and blood-red halos appeared in the embryo from time to time.

"I understand!"

Taoist Liu suddenly slapped his thigh!
"After being calcined by the fire of karma, this poisonous fetus has become the purest poison energy, mixed with Master Puzhi's hundred solutions and the righteous Dharma of Buddhism. The positive and negative complement each other, which is in line with the meaning of creation."

"If my guess is correct, this poisonous fetus is still evolving. I'm afraid it will turn into a Dao fruit in the end!"

"Dao fruit?" This was the first time Xu Zhiqiu had heard of this strange thing. "What's it for?"

Before Taoist Liu could answer, the old priest spoke first.

"resurrection."

He stared directly at the poisonous fetus, his cloudy old eyes filled with pain and struggle.

My heart felt like it was being stabbed by needles and swords, and it was extremely painful.

"Is this your purpose, Yu Zu?"

What does "borrowing the dragon's way and becoming an immortal race" mean?
What legacy?
all fake.

It's all a scam!

"Are you willing to sacrifice the flesh, blood and souls of our descendants to achieve your own path?"

Finally realizing the consequences of his actions, he seemed to have lost all the bones in his body. He knelt on the ground and banged his head on the ground.

"How much sin have I committed?"

Suddenly, there was a sound of wind behind me.

He turned his head suddenly and saw a huge poisonous dragon flying over from behind him.

He recognized it, his face suddenly changed, and he raised his hand and shouted:
"Sandor, don't go over there!"

The poisonous dragon's target was obviously the poisonous fetus in the wicked fire, but when the truth was revealed, this move was clearly a suicide.

"Are you going to punish me as your father in this way?"

The old priest cried,
"You wanted to kill me at that time just to stop me. You are right. I shouldn't have persisted in my wrongdoings and ended up hurting my people and you..."

"But after all, this matter is not just my will! It has been thousands of years and I can't stop it. No one can stop it..."

He muttered the second half of the sentence in a low voice, speaking to himself more than to others.

Finally, the poisonous dragon named "Sang Duoer" also merged into the poisonous fetus.

Burned by the fire of karma, the body collapsed, and a wisp of soul revealed a graceful figure.

She stood in the sea of ​​fire, silently gazing at her old father below.

There was no resentment in his eyes, only compassion.

Finally, even this wisp of soul was burned and "melted" and merged into one with the poisonous fetus.

The old priest burst into tears.

"..."

Seeing him like this, Xu Zhiqiu and others didn't know what to say for a moment.

What else can I say?
Were you sold out by your ancestors?

It turns out that the so-called "legacy left to the younger generations of the Yu clan" is a real undertaking of filling a hole.

In order to achieve enlightenment for himself, he is willing to sacrifice even his descendants.

I have to say, this ancestor was really a promising one.

Just as everyone was criticizing in their hearts, the poisonous fetus suddenly began to change.

Gradually, lines appeared on the surface, and the shape gradually approached the style of a "flower bud".

Then, this huge flower bud began to bloom, and the petals unfolded layer by layer, gradually transforming into the shape of a dark black lotus platform.

In the center of the lotus platform was burning a blood-red lotus fire, but the old monk was nowhere to be found.

"Uncle Master!" Fan Zengyang was extremely sad.

But the others did not share his deep sadness. They all stared at the withered bones sitting cross-legged in the center of the lotus pedestal.

On that pale skeleton, flesh, meridians, and internal organs were gradually growing, visible to the naked eye.
"Yo, you're starting to gain weight!"

Xu Zhiqiu clenched his fists, sneering, and his teeth itched.

If he was not unsure of the consequences, he would have wanted to use direct lightning to strike the son of a bitch down.

Of course, whether it can be chopped or not is another matter.

……

At this time, those monks who were trying to seize the treasure also gathered around and pointed at Yu Zu who was in the sea of ​​fire.

"This skeleton is truly miraculous. If I take a piece of meat from it and eat it, I wonder if it can increase my power."

"I think it must be a natural treasure."

"Now that we are here, wouldn't it be a shame if we don't try something new?"

……

Fortunately, although this group of people are blinded by greed, they are not fools after all and only dare to watch from the sidelines.

suddenly,

"run!"

Puzhi’s cry was heard from the fire lotus.

Everyone was shocked, and Fan was overjoyed.
"Uncle Master, are you still alive?!"

"Silly children, run!"

Puzhi's voice continued to be heard, and correspondingly, a golden Buddha light enveloped the few people, giving them a layer of golden halo.

While Xu Zhiqiu and his companions were still confused, suddenly the karmic fire in front of them spread out like an avalanche.

The blood-red sea of ​​fire instantly engulfed the entire sky-high cave.

None of the monks around were spared and were all engulfed by the karmic fire.

Suddenly, he screamed in agony.

"what happened!?"

The people enveloped by Puzhi's golden light were not harmed by the karmic fire for a while.

"It may be that the energy for resurrection is not enough. It wants to swallow us as well."

"It's not suitable to stay here for long, retreat quickly!"

"Then they..." Fei Fei looked at the people around him. "I can't care about that anymore!"

After Xu Zhiqiu finished speaking, everyone ran away without hesitation.

Taoist Liu was cautious and took the high priest, who was in a mental breakdown, away with him.

After the six people came out of the sky-high cave, they found that the outside world was already dark yellow.

In the sky, the eclipse was already halfway through.

The half moon of the new moon appears dim, yet seems dead and deep.

It seemed as if God was also angered by this act of "stealing secrets" and was furious.

The karmic fire was still spreading, soon covering the entire mountain and continuing to devour everywhere.

In addition to the crackling and roaring sounds of the fire, one could also faintly hear... the hysterical screams of those who were burned.

All in all, it was a mess.

……

Bamboo House,

"twitter--"

A lark landed on Feifei's fingertips and chirped at her non-stop.

Feifei knows how to tame beasts and understand bird language. After hearing this, he told everyone the news.

"From the hole that pierced the sky, I can see that Yu Zu's flesh and blood has not yet fully grown, and the wicked fire is still spreading outwards. Now it has burned up the land within a radius of a hundred miles."

Fan Zengyang said:

"The karmic fire only burns those who have committed bad karma, just like Master Puzhi. As long as one has less bad karma, he or she will be more resistant to the karmic fire."

In other words, this means don't do anything wrong and you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door.

"But the problem is that everyone has bad karma, the only difference is the amount. But if a mortal has even a little bit of it, it will be difficult for him to survive."

"We can't go on like this." Taoist Liu shook his head. "It's already so evil now. If he is successfully resurrected, who knows what kind of disaster will happen."

"The disaster is already here!" Fei Fei said anxiously, "If we allow the flames to spread, won't the entire Yu land be burned to ashes? Then what about the remaining 70,000 or 80,000 people..."

"What about 70,000 or 80,000? Do you have a solution?"

"..." Feifei was speechless after being asked this question, and she was sulking with red eyes.

Everyone was silent for a moment, and the atmosphere was depressing.

“Hmm~Hmm~”

The silence was broken by the cry of a baby.

"Oh, don't cry, don't cry, you peed again, didn't you?"

Mrs. Gu hugged the two babies and coaxed them with a loving look on her face.

She was a widow whose husband died unexpectedly at an early age. The couple loved each other deeply and she never remarried.

But it is a pity after all that there were no offspring.

After these days, he treated the two brothers Yu Qing and Yu Zhuo as his own sons.

"If it is really impossible to do anything, I will take these two children to the Central Plains."

She said with certainty.

"..."

"Everyone, why don't you think about what we are here for?" Xu Zhiqiu suddenly asked.

Fei Fei replied: "Save people."

Xu Zhiqiu sighed, "There are 70,000 to 80,000 people in Yudi. If we rely solely on evacuation and relief, how can we save them?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell into deep thought.

Yes, the answer is obvious.

Or just go.

Or give it a try.

But they couldn't bear to just leave.

Then there is only...

Everyone looked at each other, with an inexplicable light in their eyes.

"Research?"

“Study it!”

The five men gathered together, like a criminal gang planning to rob a bank.

Taoist priest Liu stroked his beard and said, "I do have a way, but I don't know if it is feasible."

"If you dare to keep me in suspense, I'll kick you out!"

Fan Zengyang remembered his identity as the leader of the Pao Brothers Society, and his temper flared up a bit.

"Speak quickly!"

Taoist Liu slowly took out a jade envelope from his arms.

He opened the jade box and found a talisman inside.

Liu Laodao was quite proud:

"This thing is one of the few treasures passed down to me by our ancestor. If I hadn't been forced to this point, I would not have been willing to give it up!"

Everyone focused on what he said.

This talisman is based on yellow paper, with patterns outlined in cinnabar and patterns outlined in gold thread on the edges.

However, only the upper part of the talisman head and the body were drawn, while the lower part of the talisman foot was only half written.

Just a quick look made my eyes hurt and there seemed to be a faint sound of thunder in my ears.

"Is this a thunder talisman?" Xu Zhiqiu frowned, "Why is it only half a piece?"

"Hey! Half a sheet is fine." Taoist Liu waved his hand. "That evil creature took advantage of the solar eclipse to deceive the heavens, which will surely arouse the wrath of heaven. As long as we guide him a little, it should not be difficult to bring him a catastrophic disaster."

"You want to use this thing to attract lightning and kill Yu Zu?" Fan was a little skeptical, "Can it be reliable?"

"This is called borrowing the power of heaven to eliminate demons and monsters!" Taoist Liu was unhappy, "What else, do you have a good idea?"

Everyone looked at each other and temporarily agreed to this method.

then,

"How exactly does it work?"

Taoist Liu straightened his Taoist robe and stood up.

"That's easy. I'll go out and deliver the thunder talisman to Yu Zu right away. You just wait for me at home."

He said this and walked away.

Fan grabbed his arm and glared at him:
"Aren't you afraid that the fire of karma will burn all your hair?"

It sounds easy, but everyone knows that this is a life-and-death situation.

"Bullshit!" Taoist Liu also lost his temper, "I, Taoist, have done nothing wrong. Even that little karmic fire can't burn me to death!"

"...If that's the case, I'm not afraid." Feifei also stood up.

"Stop arguing!" Boss Fan's face was gloomy, as if he had made a decision, "After all, you call me Boss Fan, so this matter still depends on me..."

"I go."

"No, no, no, it's still me."

"I told you I'd go!"

"I go!!"

“I—go!!!!”

"Hey, why are you cursing?"

"No, are you guys still fighting? This isn't like you're competing to get into the bridal chamber..."

Xu Zhiqiu didn't look at them kindly.
"I just want to ask you one question. Who among you dares to say that you have the ability to plant the thunder talisman and pull the old monk out at the same time?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly understood.

Yes, how could I forget the old monk.

He was such a kind-hearted man who sacrificed himself for others, but now he is suffering in the fire.

Don't end up being killed by lightning instead of being burned to death by fire.

It seems that teamwork is still necessary.

"so?"

"Go together."

"Let's go together!"

"And I!"

The old priest Kuisang suddenly appeared. His aura changed drastically, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he was surrounded by black air.

"I am still useful to you. Let me sacrifice my life to end this cause and effect for myself and my people!"
