Chapter 23 The Changed Hangzhou
There were many people sitting cross-legged beside the West Lake, absorbing the increasing energy in the air.
The key is that this "person" is more than just a person!
Look at that one, the one with horns on its head! The one with a tail behind its butt!
There was even a giant snake coiled in the open space!
These are all monsters!
The fact that they are all monsters is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the people sitting next to those monsters are humans, right?
Is it a human?
Is he seeing things?
The old man widened his eyes!
This was the first time he saw humans and demons working together in such harmony, absorbing energy and practicing together!
Is this West Lake?
Is this some kind of holy place?
Can we practice together?
No, the key point is that there is one more point. Isn’t this a breakthrough for a big shot?
Why didn’t he see the big shot?
The gathered energies madly drilled into the West Lake, and the people and monsters outside absorbed as much as they could. Could it be that there was a big shot under the West Lake?
The old man shook his head. This completely shattered his cognition.
For them, the appearance of monsters is just two words: "eat people"!
When a cultivator encounters this, there are only two words to say: "Catch the monster"!
It’s not like they haven’t thought about humans and demons living in peace, but the demons won’t let them do that!
Eating humans can help you cultivate quickly! Eating humans tastes good!
But why are the monsters here not interested in humans?
The old man looked around and saw quite a few ordinary people around!
Those cultivators can’t eat, so they eat ordinary people!
Come on! There are so many ordinary people here!
A giant python sensed a powerful aura approaching, opened its huge eyes to look at the old man, then closed them again and continued to practice.
Closed again!
Is this a fake monster?
The girl behind the old man quietly came to his side and asked, "Master, why don't they catch those monsters?"
The old man glanced at the girl fiercely. He wanted to know too!
A few ordinary people around heard what the girl said. One of the young men sneered and said, "You just arrived in Hangzhou, right?"
The old man glanced at these ordinary people and said nothing.
However, the other young man behind him clasped his fists and smiled, "We followed our master to Hangzhou to train, and we just encountered this situation when we arrived in Hangzhou. I wonder if you can tell us something?"
An old man looked at the appearance of these people and knew that they were probably cultivators. He smiled and said, "Exalted Immortal, you are too polite. My grandson is not very knowledgeable and his tone was not good. Please forgive me!"
"You all have just arrived in Hangzhou, so you probably haven't heard of West Lake College, right?"
The old man moved his ears, and although he pretended to be disdainful on the surface, he tilted his ear to listen carefully.
The young man's name was Zhang Qingzhong. He was naturally familiar with his master's character. He smiled and said, "Of course I don't know. Can you tell me, old man? Could these monsters be related to West Lake Academy?"
The old man shook his head and nodded, "It is related and it is not related!"
"A few days ago, there were actually monsters causing trouble in Hangzhou, but ever since the dean of West Lake Academy started to preach at Feilai Peak, the whole city of Hangzhou has changed!"
There was a look of shock in the old man's eyes. Preaching in public?
Who is so powerful that he dares to preach the Fa in public?
Zhang Qingzhong asked curiously, "This dean is so powerful that he can give a lecture! But why are there no monsters causing trouble after this dean gives a lecture?"
When the old man mentioned the dean, he gave a thumbs up.
"This dean proposed a theory, that is, monsters are just like humans. If they want to truly cultivate quickly and become immortals, they can only cultivate in one direction, which is to benefit the world. This way they will have merits, and using merits to cultivate immortals will naturally achieve twice the result with half the effort!"
"Although we are ordinary people, the dean's lectures are open to the public, and we also heard what the immortals said after they came back."
"This dean is indeed a powerful person. To benefit the world is to benefit mankind!"
"As a result, none of these monsters will harm humans anymore!"
"And recently, there are many more monsters in Hangzhou helping humans do things! Look over there!"
The old man pointed to the distance and saw a yellow ox pulling a huge load forward.
"See? That yellow ox is a monster! But it is helping old man Zhen pull the cart! The dean has changed the world of Hangzhou in one lecture!"
The old man was shocked, Zhang Qingzhong was shocked, the girl was shocked, and all his other fellow disciples were shocked!
A public lecture directly changed the monsters' mindset, from harming and eating people to helping and loving people?
Is this fake?
Are these people crazy?
These monsters are setting up a trap to capture all the humans in Hangzhou, right?
The old man looked at the yellow cow carefully.
Damn, it’s really a little demon!
However, after pulling the cart of goods, the ox ran to the West Lake and began to meditate.
The owner of the goods store was not angry at all and was still standing by and watching.
The old man and the disciples behind him were in chaos, how could this happen?
Zhang Qingzhong came to his senses and continued to ask, "Old uncle, aren't you afraid that those monsters are deceiving you?"
The old man looked at Zhang Qingzhong like he was a fool, but when he remembered that they were outsiders, his eyes became more normal. "Why do monsters eat people? They want to cultivate, right? But the dean can greatly increase their strength with just one lecture. Why do they need to eat people to cultivate? Can they break through by eating a person? Are you kidding?"
Zhang Qingzhong was stunned, the old man was stunned, and the other disciples were stunned.
What is this old man talking about?
One lecture, and your strength has greatly increased? How much more can you grow and break through?
The old man continued, "I heard that during that lecture, all the monsters who attended the lecture achieved breakthroughs! Otherwise, it wouldn't have caused such a big sensation!"
"It was the little snail at home who told me that my wife died early, and my son went to Beijing to take the imperial examination but disappeared. He might have been captured by a monster. Only me and my grandson are left."
"Because of this, we have a new snail girl in our house. She said she helps us cook! She talks to us about these things when she is free."
"The Snail Girl was a little snail on Feilai Peak before. She just became a little demon and couldn't transform."
"I heard that the dean was going to give a lecture, but I didn't believe it at first and had no intention of going. But then I saw the energy lingering above Feilai Peak, and I thought it would be a loss if I didn't listen, so I went. Who knew that after that time, she broke through to the second-level little demon and could transform!"
"Do more good deeds now, and your cultivation will increase quickly!"
"Especially now, with so much energy gathering in West Lake, I guess the dean is giving a lecture in the academy again!"
"Alas, it's a pity for Little Snail that he didn't have the talent to enter West Lake College. Otherwise, he would have learned much more in the college than outside!"
The old man was silent, and his disciples were all silent.
In one lecture, all the monsters were able to break through. Is this a human? Is this a fairy? Damn, not even fairies can do this, right?
