Demon Suppression Division: Starting as a Jailer in the Cycle of Reincarnation to Become a Martial G

Chapter 69 Saving one life is better than building a seven-story pagoda

Originally, Mingyuan's words made everyone in the room gradually lower their guard.

They also began to believe that everything they had seen before was an illusion.

However, Su Wu's words once again made everyone's hearts jump.

Yes, if everything before was an illusion, how can we be sure that everything before us is not an illusion either?

Seeing the suspicious looks directed at him, Mingyuan was not annoyed. He turned his prayer beads and looked at Su Wu.

"I never expected that you, young benefactor, would be so thoughtful at such a young age."

"No wonder you dared to speak these strange things directly to this humble monk in the hall."

At this moment, Mingyuan made no attempt to hide his admiration for Su Wu.

"Young benefactor, you are truly a person with a karmic connection to Buddhism."

As he spoke, Mingyuan turned his gaze toward Wu Dameng and the others behind Su Wu.

"Actually, it's very simple to verify."

"Didn't you say that the people who followed you earlier all died while using the toilet?"

"In that case, let them relieve themselves outside this main hall of this humble monk one more time."

"If I die, you may turn your swords against me."

"If you are alive, wouldn't that prove that everything you saw before was an illusion?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

Su Wu and Liu Dashan, in particular, found this argument quite reasonable and subconsciously looked at Wu Dameng and the Stone Brothers.

"I'll go first!"

The moment Wu Dameng met Su Wu and Liu Dashan's gazes, she stepped forward.

"I've been holding it in for too long, and I can't hold it in any longer."

"Perfect timing, let's pull this one off!"

Upon hearing this, Su Wu and Liu Dashan understood that Wu Dameng wanted to take the risk first.

That way, even if something goes wrong, only you will be the one affected.

But right now someone needs to verify all of this.

Therefore, Su Wu and Liu Dashan could only nod slightly, tacitly approving of Wu Dameng's actions.

But Liu Dashan, standing to the side, looked at Mingyuan with a hint of apology.

"For the abbot of this sacred Buddhist site to instruct us brothers to act in this manner before, wouldn't that be a desecration of its solemnity?"

Upon hearing this, Mingyuan smiled compassionately and shook his head.

"Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda."

"It's just a little dirt, we can sweep it up tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Wu Dameng bowed deeply to Mingyuan, then walked out of the main hall, found a spacious spot outside, and unbuckled her belt with her back to everyone.

In an instant, the sound of flowing water could be heard, and steam rose from the water.

Seeing this, Su Wu and Liu Dashan, who were standing inside the hall, watched Wu Dameng's back with great caution, their right hands involuntarily reaching for the long swords at their waists.

They were determined that if anything unusual happened to Wu Dameng, they would immediately draw their swords and attack!

However, even after Wu Dameng finished using the toilet, re-tied her belt, and turned to walk back into the hall, nothing seemed amiss.

"carefree!"

After relieving himself, Wu Dameng felt completely refreshed. He clapped his hands and strode towards the hall, glancing at the Stone Brothers at the same time.

"Stone, you guys can give it a try too."

Upon hearing this, the two Stone brothers hurriedly left the hall.

They had been holding back for too long on this journey, and now that they saw Wu Dameng was alright, they naturally wanted to relieve their stress.

A moment later, the Stone Brothers walked back into the main hall with a relaxed expression, and turned to Su Wu and Liu Dashan.

"Uncle Liu, Brother Su, we're alright!"

Seeing this, Su Wu and Liu Dashan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Their initial doubts about Mingyuan gradually dissipated.

"I'm sorry, I misunderstood the abbot before."

"We were rash earlier and almost misunderstood your temple."

Upon hearing this, Mingyuan waved his hand dismissively at the group.

"I have no complaints against you all."

"It is because my temple is located in a cold and gloomy place, and the monks' quarters are far from the main hall, making it easy for evil spirits to take advantage of the situation and cause people to have hallucinations or nightmares."

At this point, Mingyuan looked around the hall, then pondered for a moment before turning to Su Wu and the others.

"In that case, if you are afraid, you may rest here in this main hall."

"However, the main hall's doors are wide open, and there is a risk of cold air entering at night."

"If you don't mind, I'll have Huineng bring you a few quilts to sleep on the floor."

"We can wait until dawn tomorrow, and wait for the messenger I sent down the mountain to return before setting off down."

Faced with Mingyuan's kind offer, everyone quickly waved their hands at him.

"The abbot need not do this."

"There are plenty of cushions and carpets in this hall, and the walls are clean and tidy. We can just make do for the night."

Seeing this, Mingyuan didn't force them, and smiled as he put his hands together in prayer.

"In that case, this humble monk will not disturb you distinguished guests any longer."

"You can rest peacefully inside the hall, and I will wait in the side hall."

"If any of you need anything, please feel free to call me."

After saying that, Mingyuan turned and walked towards a side hall.

Watching Mingyuan's retreating figure as he entered the side hall, Wu Dameng and the others couldn't help but click their tongues in admiration.

"This old monk was also a kind-faced and compassionate man."

"They not only patiently cleared up our misunderstanding, but also allowed us to rest in the main hall."

Generally speaking, in such important Buddhist sites, the main hall is an extremely solemn and sacred place.

But Mingyuan didn’t mind at all that they relieved themselves outside the hall and rested in front of the statues inside.

Such behavior can be considered a compassionate act.

"Alright, stop thinking about it. We've been up all night, I'm exhausted, let's go to sleep!"

After saying that, Wu Dameng picked a large pillar, leaned against it, and closed her eyes to doze off.

Seeing this, the Stone Brothers beside Wu Dameng also leaned against the same pillar and began to squint.

Seeing this, Wu Er also turned around and found a corner, shrinking himself into the shadows.

"Alright, Su boy, stop thinking about it and go to sleep."

Seeing this, Liu Dashan also turned around and leaned against the pillar closest to the two of them.

Seeing that everyone was starting to doze off, Su Wu didn't rush to go to sleep right away.

He first looked around at the surroundings, then at the brightly lit hall, before turning his gaze to the enormous golden statue in the hall.

Because it was positioned right next to the central pillar in the hall, the enormous golden statue had compassionate eyes that met Lin Tian's gaze.

Looking at the golden Buddha statue that seemed to have compassion for all humanity, Su Wu's heart stirred slightly.

"Such a compassionate expression... surely he's not some kind of evil spirit or heretic?"

"Perhaps everything before was just an illusion, merely a delusion that clouded my judgment."

As he pondered, a wave of drowsiness washed over him, causing Su Wu's eyelids to twitch incessantly.

"I'm so sleepy today."

Su Wu gently shook his head, sat down next to Liu Dashan, and leaned against the pillar, falling into a deep sleep.

call!

After an unknown amount of time, a cold wind blew into the hall from the main entrance, making Lin Tian tense up and open his eyes from his sleep.
