What kind of Journey to the West is this?

"I never thought you would come here just for this thing... What a pity, this six-leafed flower has long been stolen by the cat demon in the west."

Abbot Honghai sighed and said, "The six-petaled flower is a unique species that grew in the Fritillaria cirrhosa field in our temple's medicine garden. It takes twenty years for it to sprout roots, twenty years for it to sprout green leaves, and twenty years for it to bloom. It was about to mature this year, but the monks in the medicine garden failed to properly watch over it, and a cat demon stole it."

"That cat demon's name is Snow Lion Lord. She came from the Lingshan Jiyuan in Xiniu Hezhou a few years ago. When she first arrived, she was covered in wounds. I felt sorry for her, so I allowed her to occupy my old temple so she could steal some of my incense and cultivate. Last month, she had a conflict with the bear monster in Wuhe Mountain. I guess she wanted to further her cultivation, so she stole the precious medicine.

"The donor can go to her and ask if they can get the medicine back."

Yan Xia was very surprised and asked, "She stole your precious medicine, and you're not angry at all, Abbot?"

The abbot laughed.

"She's a monster who knows her fate and cultivates her nature. Although she's a demon, her heart isn't particularly bad. That six-petaled flower is useless in my temple, just sitting there gathering dust on a shelf. Why not give it to her?"

Very free and easy. Yanxia wanted to applaud the abbot.

But this monster looks like it can talk, just like the stupid bird in the golden pine forest...

Yanxia nodded slightly.

The six-leafed flower is the precious medicine to save Luo Sushang, so she must get it no matter what.

Otherwise, not only would she not be able to cling to the support of her busty master, but her cultivation plan would also have to be put on hold.

——The busty master fainted so quickly that Yan Xia didn’t even get the elixir.

Luo Sushang must be saved!

I hope this Snow Lion is easy to talk to.

otherwise......

Then she will have to eliminate this evil for the people!

Any time, any place, a super good person, doing good deeds seriously!

The Cangzhou Lions Have No Buddha Nature: Chapter 6 [Equally Matched Rivals]

"Why are you back again?"

Goldfinch Fairy grabbed the branch and looked at the girl on the ground.

The girl looked up and said, "I'm going to the Iron Lion Temple to find Snow Lion-kun."

"Are you trying to kill yourself?!"

Jinquexian'er was so frightened that she trembled, her fur all over her body standing up like a fur ball. She asked, "Do you know that cat demon is not easy to deal with? She is a heartless demon who treats everyone as an enemy. If you go there, I'm afraid not even a bone will be left!"

"She has the precious medicine I want."

Yanxia refused to give up.

Jinquexian'er said worriedly, "Then go ahead. But remember, when you escape, don't run towards me. I still want to live a few more years."

"Golden Sparrow Fairy, I want you to go with me."

Yanxia named the names.

But Jinque Xian'er looked frightened and said incoherently, "I'm not going, I'm not going! You're just a Taoist who hasn't practiced for long, there's no way you can beat her. She's a monster who's refined her essence, a demon who's about to turn her elixir into medicine!"

"That's why I asked you to go with me because I can't beat you."

Yan Xia knew herself inside and out. A young cultivator who had only just begun to build her foundation, she was practically powerless without the Black Powder Bodhisattva and the Golden Light of Good Karma. She wasn't a fool...

But the Golden Sparrow Fairy had made up her mind. She flapped her wings and said, "Alas! I won't go! We are not related at all, so I won't fight for your life!"

"But the Golden Sparrow Fairy promised me that if I ever get into trouble, she'll come back to help. My horse died a tragic death."

As soon as Yan Xia said this, the little goldfinch in the air seemed to be hit by a petrifying ray and could not move.

Jinquexian'er didn't expect this to happen.

"Then I won't go either... I'm just a little demon at the foundation building stage. Even if I really go with you, the two of us can't beat that big cat."

Yan Xia sighed and said quietly, "I thought the Demon King of Golden Pine Forest was capable of so much, but it turns out he's nothing but a traitor..."

The three squirrels under the pine tree were very appropriate to the scene. They squeaked and looked up at the golden sparrow fairy.

Before he finished speaking, the Golden Bird Fairy immediately got angry and shouted:

"Hey, who are you calling treacherous? Who are you calling treacherous? You Taoist priest, who are you being sarcastic about? It's just a big cat! Go ahead!"

...........

...........

"Master, please walk slower. I'm scared."

Not long after she finished speaking, Jinquexian'er regretted it.

But she had no choice, as the girl in front of her held her fate firmly by the scruff of the neck.

Yanxia walked through the golden pine forest and saw the Iron Lion Temple in front of her with its paint peeling off the wall.

The Iron Lion Temple was built at the foot of the mountain and is not very big.

Compared with the majestic Kaiyuan Temple, the Iron Lion Temple is much more shabby.

Apart from the main hall which was often maintained and repaired by nearby villagers and woodcutters, the remaining wing rooms had fallen into disrepair, were empty and filled with dust, and there were a few scattered wisps of tile on the roof.

In the center of the main hall, there is a statue of Manjusri Bodhisattva holding a sword and a round mirror. Under the Bodhisattva's seat is a majestic iron lion, and behind him is a couplet:

"Wisdom is boundless, but one should know that reciting sutras before the Buddha is of no benefit. Hang a round mirror high, and wait for the wind to die down, and the lion's roar will arrive in the Pure Land."

Yanxia didn't understand it, but she could tell that this temple was quite popular.

Beneath the statue stood an incense table, on which sat a small copper incense burner. The incense burner was filled with millet three fingers thick, and was filled with burnt incense sticks, a testament to the intensity of the incense.

Incense is one of the five types of true qi between heaven and earth, belonging to the qi of the human world and the state. Luo Sushang had taught her about it.

Those who feed on air are divine and long-lived, so the smell of incense is extremely tempting to those monsters who are naturally short-lived.

Especially for those little demons with no special abilities, incense is one of the few treasures they can obtain. Therefore, it is common for little demons to appear in wild temples, causing the temples to suddenly become famous.

As long as they weren't so daring as to resort to the devil, earning a little incense for the rural monsters, or even becoming a subordinate deity in the temple, it didn't matter to the gods and Buddhas in the sky. If the gods and Buddhas didn't have such a heart, they might as well push the statues over and let Yan Xia sit on them.

She looked up and found that the eyes of the iron lion statue moved.

"May I ask if you are Mr. Snow Lion?"

The iron lion statue stood motionless.

She picked up a plum from the incense table, took a bite, looked back, and turned around.

In a moment, the other plums under the iron lion's feet disappeared.

An Yanxia: “…”

She picked up three or four more cantaloupes and held them in her arms, turned around as if nothing had happened, and then put the cantaloupes back where they belonged.

In the blink of an eye, the melon disappeared!

Yan Xia looked at the Iron Lion's claws that were slightly retracting, nodded slowly, and then,

She picked up the incense burner.

I weighed it and it felt quite heavy.

Before she put it down.

--next moment.

The lion's claws extended and the incense burner retreated.

The temple was immediately filled with angry voices, which frightened the Golden Sparrow Fairy outside the temple so much that she bumped her head against a pillar, with stars in her eyes.

"You are so ungrateful! Return my incense burner to me!"

Above the iron lion's head, a big white cat leaped lightly and landed on the ground.

The big cat raised its head and angrily said, "You are a good person who has practiced for ten lifetimes. I didn't mind you stealing my dinner. But you stole my incense burner, which is not edible!"

In this angry voice, Yan Xia actually heard a hint of grievance.

This is a big white cat, its entire body is snow-white, except for its eyes which are like charcoal. It looks a bit like a Maine Coon, with a thick mane around its neck, and it looks very majestic. No wonder the abbot calls it "Snow Lion".

Yanxia weighed the incense burner.

Yan Xia felt guilty and asked, "Xue Shi'er Jun, how about we both take a step back? Look, I didn't damage your incense burner."

The snow lion hugged the incense burner tightly, with a look of distrust on its face.

"This is mine. Get out of here, you little thief, or I'll eat you!"

So shameless...

Yanxia was somewhat speechless as she watched the big cat treating Manjushri Bodhisattva's incense burner as its own.

She didn't dwell on this any further, but said, "A few days ago, Xue Shi'er Jun went to the medicine garden of Iron Lion Temple and took a six-leaf, one-branched flower..."

Before she could finish, the cat dropped to the ground and bared its teeth, saying, "I was wondering where you came from. Turns out you're the helper that old monk hired! This Iron Lion Temple has been abandoned for a long time, so I chose it to practice. But that old monk insisted on claiming it was his Buddhist temple. He's secretly attracted by the incense here. You're just like that old monk, you really are such a wicked person!"

"Even if that Bear Mountain King came to hurt me, he wouldn't let me take even one herb from him? Hey, let me ask you, Taoist priest, are you going to leave or not? I still need to eat!"

Yanxia got angry after hearing this.

She shouted, "I still want to ask you something! You are such an audacious monster, such a foolish and greedy little thief! You occupied the temple of Manjushri Bodhisattva, and the Bodhisattva hasn't blamed you yet, but you are the first to cry thief! What's the point of saying "allow or not"? You stole someone else's things and you think you're justified!?"

This series of accusations with ulterior motives directly destroyed the big white cat's prestige, but she still looked like a tough guy.

"Don't listen, don't listen! The bastard is chanting sutras!"

"Humph! Even if you don't want to listen, I'll tell you something!"

"Just tell me! I'm eating! I won't give you any!"

"If you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me! I'm going to eat too, but I won't give it to you!"

Here, both sides are engaged in a war of words.

Over there, Jinque Xian'er just flew in and saw a man and a cat staring at each other. She muttered softly, "You guys won't kill anyone by arguing like this."

The Cangzhou Lion Has No Buddha Nature: Chapter 7 [Diligent in Learning and Good at Asking Questions]

--boom!

The gate of the courtyard closed automatically without any wind and with a loud bang.

Outside the door, the girl stood with her hands on her hips, her cheeks puffed up, and said angrily: "Open the door! You have the guts to steal other people's things, but you don't have the guts to admit it!?"

"Stop cursing, stop cursing..."

Jinquexian'er felt a headache after hearing this and whispered, "Even if you shout at the top of your lungs, the big cat won't open the door... I've already told you she's stupid..."

Yanxia was also helpless.

If there was a fight, she wasn't really afraid. At worst, she could come back in her next life and ask the Black Gunpowder Bodhisattva to come down and give the cat a little gunpowder shock.

But this cat didn't bother to talk or fight, and it just left her speechless.

She is a good person, you can't just rob her openly, right?

There was no other way, so she went back home and went to Kaiyuan Temple again to ask Abbot Honghai if there was any other way.

Kaiyuan Temple, in the Baolin Hall.

Abbot Honghai struck a wooden fish, listened quietly to what the girl saw and heard, and then spoke.

What surprised Yanxia was that Abbot Honghai really had a method.

"The Six-Leafed Flower is a treasure of the highest yin energy, originally not conducive to cultivation. However, the cat went astray while refining her essence, and so she harbored the desire to steal it. If you try to force it, she'll be haunted by her obsession and won't give it to you."

Abbot Honghai said carefully, "The bear monster of Wuhe Mountain has always had a grudge against her. Recently, the monster has reached the peak of his refining spirit and is about to achieve great success. He will definitely seek revenge on Xue Shi'er again."

"If you can help her survive this calamity and establish a good relationship with her, you might be able to take the treasure away. That bear monster has a hard time cultivating, and if they really fight, both sides will probably suffer. Stopping him will also be a merit. This is a good strategy."

indeed.

But there is a problem.

She can't beat...

Snow Lion Lord was a spirit-refining monster. Bear Mountain Lord was even more advanced, a spirit-refining monster.

Luo Sushang had taught her before that refining essence was the first step after building the foundation. It mainly focused on refining the primordial essence and transporting the vital energy. Although the physical body was stronger than the foundation, it was still a mortal body. If the head fell off, the person would still die.
