Chapter 420: Hometown

In the old house, the dim light shone on the Buddha's bald head, giving off a strange glow.

The Buddha shook his head, indicating that he didn't know why Wen Zhengming asked him to do this.

In the Buddha's opinion, this important figure should be related to the Ming Dynasty's Nirvana, otherwise he would not have been found as soon as he tried to snatch the coffin that was taken away.

But why this person wanted him to sort out the entire underground world of Jiangyin's extraordinary people? This is a question that the Buddha has not figured out yet.

Logically speaking, beings related to the Great Ming Nirvana would be dead the moment they met them.

But the great man evidently had no intention of killing him that day.

Wen Zhengming sat on a wobbly bamboo chair, looking up at the light on the roof of the old house, narrowing his eyes and saying:

"To be honest, I don't like your existence. There is no order in the dark world. Killing, greed, and desire are commonplace here."

"But I can't kill all of you, because you are part of the law, just like where there is sunshine there is shadow, this is something that cannot be avoided."

"You have to know that Zhu Yuanzhang treated corrupt officials so harshly, but there were still people who dared to risk their lives. This shows that darkness in this world is inevitable and cannot be eradicated. It is like the shadow of this world, firmly imprinted on this world."

"So I didn't kill you. If I killed you, there would be another Buddha or Taoist priest. This would be useless. It just made me feel relieved and clear-minded for a while."

When Master Buddha heard this, his body trembled and he said:

"Thank you, Mr. Ming, for not killing me."

Wen Zhengming retracted his gaze, closed his eyes and said:

"You don't need to thank me. You earned your life yourself. If you didn't make it through that day, you would have died."

"And I'm not just letting you live like that. You need to help me with things, just like you've been doing these days."

Wen Zhengming did not intentionally let the Buddha survive. For him, it didn't matter who did it. After all, no one in this world could refuse him.

So whether the Buddha survived or not was actually not important to Wen Zhengming.

But the Buddha survived with his tenacious belief.

The Buddha lowered his head and said respectfully:

"It's my pleasure!"

The closer he got to this big shot, the more he could feel the terrifying sense of oppression beneath the calm breeze and clouds.

To such a big shot, he himself is a dispensable existence.

"I'm off topic again. Let's talk about why you do this."

Wen Zhengming rubbed his nose and said with his eyes closed:

"The reason I want you to do this is because I hope that the dark world of the extraordinary can have its own rules. Under these rules, the dark world of the extraordinary can minimize the impact on ordinary people."

"Rather than a corpse filled with curses jumping out from the train at any time like that day."

"This is too dangerous for most ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty. After all, not every train has people with the same level of cultivation as me. If you do this, something bad will happen sooner or later."

These words made the Buddha's back sweat, but Wen Zhengming still did not open his eyes, but just said lightly:

"I said this, do you understand what I want to do?"

Buddha nodded quickly and said, "I understand. I will immediately find a way to reduce these effects."

Wen Zhengming put down his hand that was rubbing his nose, closed his eyes and leaned back on the bamboo chair, saying:

“You have to not only find ways to reduce those effects, but you also need to continue to address the dark forces elsewhere.”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and tapped on the yellowed paper on the table, saying:

"Take a look at this paper. This is what you need to solve. Of course, this is just a list of the people who are currently in the dark world of the Extraordinary. As for how many people will be in the dark forces of the Extraordinary when you are done, I have no idea."

“Everything in this world is full of endless changes, and that is why this world is so interesting.”

"But you have to deal with these forces above."

"I only have one request. The dark world of the extraordinary has only one voice, and this voice will minimize the impact of the entire extraordinary dark force on ordinary people."

"yes!"

The Buddha quickly agreed.

Wen Zhengming's voice did not have the majesty of a mountain or an ocean, but it made the Buddha even more frightened, because he knew that what the man had ordered him to do was not what the other party wanted to do at all, but was something that this big shot did on a whim.

To this big shot, the entire dark world of supernatural beings is nothing.

For those people who truly stand at the pinnacle of the world of extraordinary people, only those who have become immortals are qualified to face them. As for those who have not become immortals, they are not qualified to face them at all.

Wen Zhengming squinted his eyes and lay on the bamboo chair for a while before slowly opening his eyes and saying:

"Of course, the emperor has plenty of hungry soldiers, and I won't give you nothing. Why don't you tell me what you want?"

Just asking me that?

The Buddha hesitated inwardly, he felt that the powerful being opposite him seemed to be testing him.

But if you think about it carefully, what qualifications does he have to be tempted?

After a moment of silence, the Buddha slowly spoke:

"I want to become an immortal."

Becoming an immortal is the dream of everyone in this world who has embarked on the path to becoming an extraordinary being.

Buddha is no exception.

Wen Zhengming glanced at him. This answer was not beyond his expectations, and it could not even be said to be surprising.

But it is extremely true that there is no extraordinary person in this world who does not want to become an immortal.

Wen Zhengming lay on the bamboo chair and glanced at him, saying:

"I can give you the path to becoming an immortal, but just like the scene where you risked your life, if you want to become an immortal, then you have to show your ability and give it a try."

As he spoke, Wen Zhengming stretched out his hand and tapped on the table, and a jade slip appeared on the table.

The jade slip exuded a crystal-clear glow, as if it was covered with a layer of silver gauze.

The Buddha knew that this was a jade slip of inheritance, something that was passed down by truly great sects. His heartbeat quickened involuntarily.

Wen Zhengming tapped his fingers on the jade slip and said:

“All the Dao and Dharma are here.”

"If you want to become an immortal, it depends on your own ability."

"Mr. Xie Ming!"

The Buddha bowed and said.

To be honest, when he first met Mr. Ming, he felt fear and hatred.

After all, he is not the only one in the dark world of extraordinary people in this world. Why did he have to offend such a big shot?

Even if Mr. Ming gave him a chance to live, he had no respect for him. After all, he risked his life for this opportunity.

But now he felt somewhat grateful to Mr. Ming.

Lord Buddha has always been very clear about his position in the entire world of extraordinary people. He seems to be rampant in the dark world of extraordinary people, but he is actually just a small fry in the world of extraordinary people.

He is not qualified to come into contact with the world of those real big shots.

But now the other party gave him a chance.

This time his thanks were sincere.

Wen Zhengming waved his hand, pointed at the books on the table and said, "As for these people, I hope you can deal with them within this year."

"If you have any questions, you can come to the Extraordinary Auction to find me. Just say you are looking for Mr. Ming."

After that, the lights in the old house flickered again. Wen Zhengming wanted to go for a walk down the mountain this time, but was delayed for too long because of the incident on the train.

After the lights flickered a few times, Wen Zhengming disappeared from the spot.

After the dim light returned to normal, the only person left in the room was the Buddha in Tang suit, who squinted his eyes as if thinking about something.

The Extraordinary Auction, is this person related to the Extraordinary Auction?

The Extraordinary Auction has now become a true towering tree and a giant in the world of extraordinary people.

The entire Ming Dynasty, and even all the great extraordinary people outside the Ming Dynasty, are almost exposed to it.

According to legend, the big boss behind the Extraordinary Auction is the number one man in the world on Mount Zhongnan, the sky of the entire extraordinary world.

Could it be that this person is related to the number one person in the world on Mount Zhongnan?

The Buddha originally wanted to ask, but before he could open his mouth, Wen Zhengming had disappeared into the old house.

Under the orange light, only Master Buddha was left.

He reached out and slowly picked up the list on the table, but at the first glance, his eyebrows frowned.

The list above includes not only the Ming Dynasty, but the entire ancestral planet.

It was already late at night and the sound of cicadas could be faintly heard outside the window. Only then did the Buddha finish reading the list.

After a moment of silence, he picked up the jade slip on the table, and the crystal light in the jade slip lit up.

………

It was not until late at night that the Buddha walked out of the old house.

The Taoism passed down to him by that great man was even more powerful than he had imagined. This was the method left behind by Zhuangzi. Although it might not be Zhuangzi's true teaching, it was also a top-notch method in the world.

In the courtyard late at night, the old servant had already fallen asleep. He was very weak and could not hold out at all at night.

At this time, only Ruffian Zhang was left in the courtyard. He was hitting mosquitoes with stones on the ground. The stones turned into streams of light in Ruffian Zhang's hands.

At this time, Rascal Zhang suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at the Buddha, and then quickly stood up.

"Master Buddha, what did that great man say?"

The Buddha glanced at the ruffian Zhang coldly.

"That's not what you should be asking."

"Yes, yes, I overstepped my authority!"

The gangster Zhang immediately slapped himself in the face and said, he didn't know at this time that he had found a real big shot.

The moment he came out of the villa where the extraordinary people of Jiangyin gathered, he knew that Master Buddha had truly become the sky of Jiangyin.

After the Buddha looked at him and was silent for a moment, there seemed to be a wild fire burning in his eyes.

"Our next target is the dark side of the entire extraordinary world."

At this point, the Buddha couldn't help but recall the list he had just read, the list left by Mr. Ming. In addition to the dark forces of the Ming Dynasty, there were also dark forces on the other side of the ocean, in the Western Divine Kingdom.

These forces have many more members than the extraordinary dark forces of the Ming Dynasty, but the extraordinary people leading them are not powerful.

However, the real problem for these forces is not those extraordinary people. After all, the extraordinary people outside the Ming Dynasty are much worse than those in the Ming Dynasty.

It can even be said that judging from strength alone, the Buddha can deal with those forces much faster than the Ming Dynasty.

But in reality it is not like that. You have to know that outside the Ming Dynasty at that time it was a completely chaotic place with no order at all.

The biggest problem is the legendary god who looked down on everything in ancient Egypt thousands of years ago, and the legendary monster that escaped from the Moon and was suppressed by Emperor Yu.

These god-like beings would not give him, Lord Buddha, any face. In their territory, Lord Buddha had almost no say.

But now he had no choice but to go ahead with it, because he had no way of turning back and had to continue on this path.

Ruffian Zhang was shocked when he heard this:

“Isn’t this a bit too big a step?”

After the Buddha glanced at him coldly, he said in a cold voice:

"I am keeping you here not because I need you to question me, but because I need you to solve the problems in the implementation of the plan. If you can't solve the problem, then I will kill you."

Ruffian Zhang slapped himself in the face and said, "I was confused. I wonder how long the Buddha is going to spend cleaning up the dark world of the extraordinary people in this world?"

"Half a year at most."

There was a gleam of ambition in the Buddha's eyes, and he said coldly:

"There will be a series of battles next."

For Mr. Buddha, half a year is the bottom line. After all, he has to leave enough time to face the chaotic areas outside the Ming Dynasty.

The gods and demons in other places might not give him face, and by then it might take him even longer than outside the Ming Dynasty.

"I will start from the north and end with the coast."

"There are far fewer extraordinary people in the north. Most of them are in the city on the western border of Ming Dynasty. The rest are nothing to be afraid of."

………

While the Buddha was planning his future actions, Wen Zhengming had already arrived at the streets of Binhai, which was full of lights and bustling life. It was the most prosperous city in the Ming Dynasty at that time, without a doubt.

The news of the Extraordinary Auction is not a secret, and many people who have reached a certain level know of its existence.

Natural seaside will attract these people more than other cities.

Wen Zhengming found a bench on a pedestrian street and sat down, quietly watching the people coming and going in front of him.

The proportion of extraordinary people in Binhai is much higher than in other cities. Even while sitting like this, Wen Zhengming saw quite a few extraordinary people.

“Times have changed in my hands!”

Wen Zhengming sighed softly.

At this moment, a man in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses walked up to Wen Zhengming.

"Mr. Wen, why didn't you tell me you were coming here?"
