Chapter 60060 No Regrets
Chapter 60
Monopoly? Such selfish desires are contrary to Buddhist teachings.
Kong Fan frowned and looked at Ying Ji's eyes in confusion. Slowly, he saw his own blurry figure in the chaos.
He also saw his own confusion.
The teachings of his master and Wudao echoed in his ears, and the things he had firmly believed in were slightly shaken.
Yingji looked him straight in the eye, letting him stare at her, waiting for him to figure it out.
After a long time, Kong Fan nodded.
"Yes," he said, "I want you all to myself."
Being confused doesn't prevent you from speaking the truth.
Yingji chuckled and turned her head to look at the shadows of two people standing opposite each other on the ground.
"Don't you want to know that if I didn't look for Jianfeng, then which handsome wild man did I look for?" Ying Ji's tone was filled with helplessness.
Kong Fan had completely calmed down. He reached out, gently grasped Ying Ji's wrist, and probed with his spiritual power. He said gently, "You are no longer poisoned by the Hehuan Yueqing Water."
The Hehuan Yue Love Water only becomes very strong when it is about to take effect. Every time it detoxifies, if you don't examine it carefully, you won't find any abnormalities in the poisoned person's body.
This time Kong Fan carefully investigated and found out that Ying Ji was not in the state of being detoxified, but the poison of the Hehuan Yueqing Water was completely gone from her body.
Kong Fan breathed a sigh of relief and said with emotion, "This is the best. This evil poison will no longer control you."
A cool breeze blew in from the window, ruffling the hems of their clothes. Yingji watched as their shadows on the ground also floated with their clothes.
She sighed helplessly and asked, "So, you don't want to know how I detoxified you? This is such a weird poison, the one who created it didn't even have an antidote."
Kong Fan thought for a moment and asked, "Did you develop the antidote yourself?"
Yingji looked at Kongfan in surprise and said, "You think highly of me."
"Is that so or isn't it?"
Ying Ji stared into Kong Fan's eyes and asked, "Then do you hope that the antidote is developed by me?"
Yingji was hesitating. She was a liar by nature, but at this moment she had some adventurous thoughts in her mind. She wanted to tell Kongfan the truth and see him get furious.
"I naturally hope that you developed the antidote yourself. This shows that you are very skilled in treating poisons, which is a good thing."
Ying Ji sighed again and said speechlessly, "Monk, don't you understand yet? I lied to you. I already had the antidote when I took the Hehuan Yue Love Water! I deliberately took advantage of your kindness and compassion to make you break your precepts, causing your spiritual power to drain and harming your cultivation!"
Kong Fan nodded slightly and said calmly, "I just guessed it."
Yingji stared at him with wide eyes, clearly dissatisfied with his bland reaction. Did she expect him to be furious? She pressed on, "Aren't you angry? Don't you blame me for my ill intentions?"
Kong Fan suddenly smiled like a spring breeze. He said, "Yingji, I have never regretted what happened between us."
He said honestly again: "I am only happy now."
"What are you happy about?" Yingji blurted out, then realized that he was happy that nothing had happened between her and Jianfeng. She was at a loss for words and said, "Monk, if you continue like this, you won't be able to practice Buddhism."
Kong Fan hesitated for a moment before saying, "My life span is very long."
——And you are not.
Yingji understood. "Are you waiting for me to die?"
Kong Fan shook his head: "I just want to be with you for the rest of your life."
Yingji looked at Kongfan's sincere and clear eyes, and suddenly felt a little hesitant in her heart.
Yes, for a spiritual practitioner, her life is very short.
Kongfan...
There were a few moments when Yingji would have the idea of spending her short life seeking shelter with Kongfan.
But it was only a few moments, and she would soon find such a ridiculous idea extremely ridiculous.
She stopped trusting others at a very young age. Even a sage as kind as Kongfan couldn't be completely relied upon. Other people's abilities could never be completely hers. In this world, the only thing that could protect her was her own abilities.
Even if Kong Fan wanted to protect her for the rest of her life, Ying Ji would never stay with him obediently forever.
Her life is so short, so she must seize the time to do what she wants to do, to possess stronger abilities, and to become someone who can protect herself and those around her.
At night, Ying Ji laid out the materials needed for monster refining one by one - wasteland-clearing stone, Wanfeng lotus, blood relative's heart, snake girl scale, blazing fire jade, Haoqing falcon, beautiful flame water, poisonous spider fruit, and Bodhi pill.
She had already obtained six of these necessary items, and only the last three were left.
She increasingly hoped to speed up the process and gather all nine items as soon as possible. On one hand, she wanted to open the reincarnation well, and on the other hand, she wanted to gather all the items for refining monsters. Unfortunately, she didn't have the ability to clone herself, so she couldn't leave either behind.
"Aying! Aying!" Jianfeng called out from outside the door while knocking. He had learned his lesson this time and did not just push the door open, but knew to knock.
Ying Ji quickly put everything on the table into her Qiankun bag before letting him in.
"You came to me today because of something urgent?" Yingji asked.
Jianfeng drifted in, sat down opposite Yingji, and said mysteriously, "I know your secret."
"Tell me about it." Yingji poured herself a glass of water.
"Your relationship with the abbot is not normal! This monk is a playboy!" Jianfeng winked at Yingji.
Ying Ji glanced at him coldly, her voice slightly colder: "He just saved your life, speak more clearly."
Jian Feng was stunned for a moment, then said unconvincedly, "I'm speaking the truth. How can the term 'Flower Monk' be considered unclean? Do you dare to say that you don't have that kind of relationship?"
"I've been a ghost for hundreds of years, so I'm cut off from the news?" Ying Ji smiled and raised her lips. "I'm his concubine, and many people know about my affair with him."
"Huh?" Jian Feng thought he'd uncovered a great secret, but it turned out to be something known to the entire world. He muttered, "It can't be helped. After becoming a ghost, I'm far away from people, so naturally, I'm cut off from information."
"You're the one who's going to provoke me by staying away from the crowd?"
"I feel so familiar just looking at you!" Jian Feng smiled with narrowed eyes. Although he had wandered this world for hundreds of years, he died too young, and his face was very youthful and childish when he smiled.
Yingji asked speechlessly, "Is this the secret you discovered? Is this something urgent you want to tell me?"
"There's one more thing." Jian Feng said seriously, "In the isolation barrier, there's the monster that escaped from your Qiankun bag."
Yingji immediately became alert.
Jianfeng leaned forward, moved closer to Yingji, and lowered his voice: "Are you secretly practicing forbidden techniques, the art of refining demons?"
A flash of murderous intent flashed across Yingji's eyes. She remained calm, yet a wave of fear surged within her. The art of refining demons was rarely known. She had assumed Jianfeng wouldn't recognize it.
To kill or not to kill? How to kill him?
Jian Feng smiled mysteriously: "I can help you."
Yingji looked at him suspiciously, obviously not believing that pie would fall from the sky.
"I'm serious! It's so boring to drift around for hundreds of years. I want to see the dead demon come back to life and recognize its master, kill those spiritual cultivators, and do evil!" Jian Feng became more and more excited as he spoke.
Yingji frowned.
Jianfeng seemed oblivious to Yingji's murderous intent and asked excitedly, "How many treasures have you obtained? What else do you need?"
Ying Ji hesitated for a moment before saying, "We still need the Beautiful Flame Water, the Poison Spider Fruit, and the Bodhi Pill."
Jian Feng stood up suddenly, but he didn't control his strength well, and his body floated up. He said with bright eyes: "You have collected so many? It's amazing!"
Yingji looked at him and did not fully trust him. In Yingji's opinion, Jianfeng was really a weird person.
Jian Feng, floating in mid-air, sat down again and frowned, saying, "The Beautiful Flame Water and the Poison Spider Fruit are both quite troublesome."
Yingji immediately asked, "Do you know where the Bodhi Pill is?"
Although the last three items, the Beautiful Flame Water and the Poison Spider Fruit, were difficult to obtain, Ying Ji knew where they were. However, there was no clue about the last item, the Bodhi Pill.
Jian Feng shook his head: "I don't know. There's no record of it in ancient books."
"I'm going to sleep." Ying Ji stood up and drove the useless guy away.
But Jianfeng is not completely useless - for example, as an excuse.
The next day, Yingji took Kongfan's hand and said with a sweet smile, "Kongfan, come with me to Liyan. Jianfeng needs Liyan water to make medicine."
Kong Fan looked into Yingji's eyes and saw through her lie.
He said, "Okay."
