Chapter 217

217 "Ten years of hard work, destroyed in an instant."

Xiang Jiannan and his master each hugged a big tree, and waited until the whole world was completely bright. Only then did he speak with lingering fear. There were more than one strange things today. Just now, he saw with his own eyes that half of the Ping'an Temple had collapsed.

This experience made me sigh with emotion. Who would have known that after jumping out of the courtyard wall, I would immediately find myself in another world? The earthquakes and tremors in the temple had nothing to do with them. It was only for safety that I followed their example and leaned against a big tree.

"Thirty years."

The collapse of the Taoist temple did not seem to be a painful thing. When Xiang Jiannan was sighing, Gao Yuan had already approached the ruins.

He picked up a broken brick from the ground and hummed softly, while his other hand kept pointing at the ground:

"One, two, three."

"I don't know when Mr. Li will come again."

"Master, don't you have anything to say to your disciple?"

It was unclear why the old Taoist priest thought of Li Jinshan at this time. He turned and headed towards the stinky ditch. Xiang Jiannan just wanted to go there and take a look first.

The previous roar definitely came from the stinking ditch. Xiang Jiannan was absolutely sure about this matter. His current situation was a bit miserable. Such a big commotion happened, but no one came to watch the fun.

"What are you talking about? The Buddha has already appeared in the world."

Throwing away the broken bricks, Gao Yuan saw Xiang Jiannan's eyes were always on the stinking ditch, and he became gloating: "No one can escape. We only have two people in the Human Sect, so it will be difficult for the Heavenly Sect and the Earthly Sect."

"I will go to the city with my master later and buy everything I need before it's too late."

"Master, what do you mean?"

He thought that the repair work of the Taoist temple would not require going to the city and spending money. From the tone of the old Taoist priest, it seemed that he was ready to spend a lot of money. Xiang Jiannan did not understand what he meant.

Ping'an Town is small but has everything. With the master's reputation, even if he wants to repair Ping'an Temple, it is just a matter of talking.

There were people from all walks of life in the town, except for some very scarce items. In Xiang Jiannan's memory, there was nothing missing in Ping'an Town.

"Funeral clothes and coffins are of utmost importance! By the way, what color do you like, disciple?"

After being asked this question for a long time without saying anything, when he turned his head to look at the old Taoist priest again, Xiang Jiannan found that he was not joking with him, even though the second half of the sentence sounded non-serious.

Let's not discuss the color for now. If so, will the Buddha kill them all? Why didn't he do it in the temple before? Is there a possibility that the old Taoist made a mistake in his judgment? Even if I am just guessing.

"Is our relationship with Buddhism so strained?"

He asked the old Taoist priest but he didn't quite believe it in his heart. At this time, he firmly believed in the Buddhist theory of compassion, so Xiang Jiannan expressed doubts about Gao Yu'an's words.

The Buddha's appearance in the world depended on the clay statue of the master in the incense hall. After the master was shattered, it was condensed by thousands of rays of light. Although he could not explain why, in his opinion, this was a real grace of re-creation.

Why did the Buddha choose Pinganguan as the place for his present life? This is what you should know now.

"Remember your master once told you that there is an evil spirit hiding under our Ping An Temple."

"He escaped today. If it were you, would you let it go?"

Glancing at Xiang Jiannan, he saw that he was still harboring hope in his heart. Gao Yuan's words were like a bucket of cold water. The young Taoist was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that night.

This is what the evil old Taoist priest said before. The fact that Buddha is an evil spirit should have been revealed earlier.

For example, from time to time you may hear some strange sounds in the meditation hall, which may be made by the Buddha.

"The demon you are talking about is Buddha?"

"yes!"

"Master, you are really amazing..."

After speaking to Gao Yuan with an uncertain expression, Xiang Jiannan began to think about the color of the shroud in his mind.

Regardless of whether the color of the shroud is fixed or not, Xiang Jiannan will choose bright red. However, there is one thing that the old Taoist priest seems to have overlooked. With the Buddha's cultivation, he should be able to turn them into ashes directly at that time. Does this mean that there is no need to prepare too much? There is no way to restrain.

Will there be a chance of survival if I run? Judging from the old Taoist's expression, it seems that he doesn't have this intention for the time being.

"It is not my duty to suppress the Buddha. If I had the ability, I would not have been beaten so badly."

Rejecting the ineffective flattery and curious about what Xiang Jiannan was thinking now, Gao Yuan continued, "When the Buddha was fighting with an evil dragon and his cultivation was greatly damaged, your master just happened to pass by."

"Based on the principle that it doesn't matter who you take, I'll take this opportunity to suppress the Buddha here."

"Our Taoist sect was very powerful in the past. Because of this merit, your master will soon attain enlightenment and become an immortal."

"Then why did Master choose to go to the East China Sea?"

Feeling that what the old Taoist said did not match the current situation, Xiang Jiannan opened his mouth and asked. He felt that things might not be as simple as he said.

Since the Buddha was suppressed, Taoism should have become more prosperous, but why has it become like this now?

Is it because the Buddhist disciples who lost their leader are striving to become stronger, or is it because the Taoist sect has fallen into depravity? "Your master must have been forced to do what he wanted."

In fact, he had no idea why the master jumped into the sea. In response to Xiang Jiannan's question, Gao Yuan could only try his best to explain: "The king likes balance, and the Buddha is subdued, so our Taoist sect naturally lost its use. Later, it seemed that he issued a secret order, saying that we Taoist sect did it on purpose. Now it seems that we were deceived by him."

"You are wrong, Taoist priest. I have always behaved honestly and uprightly. I am not a bad dragon at all."

Just as Gao Yu'an was getting more emotional, a rough voice rang out from the ground. Xiang Jiannan saw a figure walking towards him from a distance. The man looked particularly old, walked slowly, and was panting every few steps.

When he got closer, he corrected the old Taoist's previous words, and then continued to add: "The Buddha is the real villain. Your master is a stubborn person. He hesitated and couldn't distinguish right from wrong. He didn't really understand until he became an immortal."

"Reclaiming the sea is to calm the water of the East China Sea, to prevent the water creatures from relying on it to cause chaos after I am trapped!"

"The water creature you are talking about is the Green Dragon?"

When Xiang Jiannan heard the visitor talking about the aquatic creatures in the East China Sea, he immediately thought of the Green Dragon. Xiang Jiannan felt that this white-faced scholar was actually quite kind. Although he had taken action several times, he had not caused any major disasters. After he finished speaking, he saw the old man nodded. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted:

"You always come out of the stinking ditch? Not an evil dragon? That's a good one!"

"Why bother asking such a question?"

Shaking his clothes with a stern expression, the old man looked up at the sky as Xiang Jiannan showed shock: "The Buddha will definitely break through the East China Sea first. If he succeeds... are you two willing to follow me to stop him?"
