Chapter 413 Hou Cang doesn't understand

By the time there were three more people sitting on the ground at the top of the mountain, Hou Cang still hadn't figured out how he could sit down and drink peacefully with the two people he had hated the most before.

Hou Cang glanced at Wei Zhi next to him, moved a little, and sat quietly on the other side.

Lin Du is fine, but Wei Zhi is still a nuisance.

Even if one's life experience is pitiful, it is still unbearable.

"Come to think of it, have you been to the Peacock Clan before?"

Wei Zhi drank the spiritual fruit juice, Lin Du drank the fruit honey wine, and Hou Cang drank the spiritual wine that was taken from Wei Zhi.

Whether it tastes good or not is another matter, but it should be quite expensive.

"I thought you would ask about the Fallen Angel fragments." Lin Du took out Han Yue Ling and stuffed an iron basin into it.

Wei Zhi lowered his eyes, the wide sleeves of his monk's robe made of soft linen fell on the rocks, looking light and fluttering, "Do you have anything to ask me?"

Hou Cang couldn't listen any longer, so he turned around and said something rude to the exiled immortal, "Are you a Buddhist cultivator who is just trying to make small talk? What could my junior sister want from you..."

"Yes." Lin Du said.

Hou Cang: ...

He silently moved a little further away from Lin Du.

As expected, he still disliked these two people.

"The demonic energy is the three poisons that were brewed when the fallen angel was still a god, right?" Lin Du said in a steady voice.

Hou Cang's hand shook suddenly, and all the wine spilled on his palm. He turned to look at the two men.

Wei Zhi met Lin Du's gaze calmly, "Yes."

"You knew it a long time ago." Lin Du stared at his amber eyes that seemed too exotic.

Those eyes are naturally pale, their movements are vague, and they always seem insincere.

"I knew it a long time ago." Wei Zhi was also looking at Lin Du. After the battle, he had no breath left in his body. It seemed that Lin Du could not use his spiritual power.

"You didn't place the Three Poison Seals casually. You did it on purpose." Lin Du looked at him, as if he was looking at his previous life.

Wei Zhi couldn't help but laugh. "Nothing can be hidden from you. How did you guess it? Even the leader of the peacock clan and the current Dharma King of Buddhism didn't notice it."

Lin Du turned his head and stopped looking at him, thinking in his heart, as expected.

When she sealed the source of evil spirit that day, the red rope on her wrist was very hot, but the situation was urgent and she had no time to make a judgment.

Later that day when she talked with Yue Chen, she remembered something.

"Why is it called a demon? It steals wisdom and life, and destroys the roots of the Dharma, merit, and goodness. That's why it's called a demon." Lin Du always spoke very quickly when he recited, "The sutra says: All Buddhas have always been in the three poisons since their origin."

"That day I suddenly realized that things that we Taoists cannot judge at all can be easily explained by you Buddhists."

Wei Zhi couldn't help laughing, "Those great masters have chanted for thousands of years, but they are not as good as a Taoist genius like you."

"A genius is a genius wherever he is." Lin Du said calmly, "It's not because he is in one place that he is a genius."

Hou Cang felt that this was not true. He was definitely not a genius in formation.

But he couldn't get a word in.

Wei Zhi nodded, "So I wanted to take you in as my apprentice."

Hou Cang said, "Then think about it."

The two of them didn't let the conversation interrupt them and continued, "I also had doubts, so I verified it."

"How to verify?"

Wei Zhi did not answer. "The source of demonic energy contains the scattered power of the Fallen Angels, and those powers have accumulated for tens of thousands of years before they were barely condensed into one. However, the power of the Fallen Angels cannot be completely separated from the Three Poisons, so most of the ones you encounter have strong concentrations of the Three Poisons."

"The fragment from six thousand years ago?" Lin Du suddenly realized, "No wonder it said that I had no idea how huge the complete one was. The oil field that runs through the two worlds must be big enough."

It's ridiculous to think about it. The upper world probably used Buddha's bones to seal the fallen angels, and the fallen angels were inseparable from the three poisons inside the seal, decaying and decaying, like rotten roots in the ground.

You thought that the tree was calm and peaceful, and worked hard to grow a new branch and leaf in the spring ten thousand years later, but you didn't expect that the inside of the new branch had already rotted and smelled bad.

That is not the hope of new life, that is the end of decay.

"Oil field?" Wei Zhi was puzzled.

"It's just a metaphor, not important." Lin Du finished drinking the half-bottle of wine in his hand, and his face turned even paler.

Wei Zhi was certain that Lin Du could not use his spiritual power now.

His eyes flickered, and he asked again, "Lin Du, do you regret it?"

Confused afterwards, what did Lin Du regret?

"No regrets," Lin Du lowered his eyes, "As long as I don't die, even if I lose everything, as long as I can get rid of the dodder that lives in the rot, I won't regret it."

"But in order to kill gods and pacify the world, you have now become half a useless person, even if it is only temporarily." Wei Zhi reminded her.

"You also said that it's temporary." Lin Du raised her chin. Without any spiritual power simulation, her gray eyes reflected a cool silver light under the sunny sky. "I have the courage to start all over again, as long as there is still time and opportunity."

"But you don't know before you take action. You may not be able to withstand the power of the rules and die. Maybe the Fallen Angel is strong enough..."

Before Wei Zhi finished speaking, Lin Du had already turned around and met his eyes again. Her voice was hoarse from the sweet wine, "Master Wei Zhi, the calculation ability of Lin Du of the Supreme Sect is the best in the world."

"Including Yanye."

"I am number one in the world."

“So I can’t miscalculate.”

"I actually thought about it that day, whether I should drag my master down a little bit, but I thought about it, and I think that having me and my senior brother is enough."

Hou Cang's hand holding the wine jug trembled again.

"So, you can trust me."

"What price will I have to pay for another chance?" Wei Zhi looked at Lin Du and finally decided to return to the path he was supposed to take after his heresy.

Lin Du thought for a moment and said, "I don't ask for much. You can calculate the value of a life yourself."

"Then I understand. Your entire fortune may not be enough. I'll have to trouble you to go to the Buddhist temple in person to discuss it." Wei Zhi stood up. "How long will it take for your body to recover?"

Lin Du's eyes flashed across the faint white mark on his hand.

It seemed like she wasn't the only loser there.

"I will restore the temporary seal of the origin of the demonic energy before it is exhausted." Lin Du finished her business.

Wei Zhi turned around and said, "That will be within a year. From now on, you must come and bother Master Lin Du often."

Lin Du smiled, "No problem."

Hou Cang watched Wei Zhi going away, and inexplicably felt that the floating figure seemed to have actually landed on the ground.

He didn't understand, but he would ask, "Little Junior Sister, what are you two talking about?"

Lin Du retracted his gaze, "Wei Zhi has agreed to feed the demon with his body and seal the source of the demonic energy forever."

Hou Cang was stunned for a moment, "Ah?"

He stood there, unable to help but glance forward at Wei Zhi's departing figure, "Then...then...did you just discuss sending him into reincarnation?"

"He can't enter the cycle of reincarnation." Lin Du said calmly, "But it doesn't matter. I have a way."

The jade slip that Wei Zhi gave her that day recorded a formation.

A formation that is enough to turn everything around and leave some room for maneuver.

"With his personality, how could he accept such a fate?" Hou Cang frowned, and his tone no longer had the previous disgust.

Lin Du lowered his head and said softly, "Maybe it's because he has been walking for a long time and hasn't reached the starting point of hope yet."

But it doesn’t matter. She, Lin Du, is good at calculating. She made the promise in her previous life, and it’s time for her to fulfill it in this life.

Of course, money is essential.
