Chapter 542 When did the demon usurp the Buddha?
"Should Yingjiu continue to die on the road to praying to Buddha?"
Leng Ningshuang repeated it and frowned unhappily.
"Then why did he die on the road to seek Buddha nine thousand times?"
"Of course, he will have no chance to meet Buddha in the next life," Dao Hai shook his head, smiling, "Could it be that... you think he should go to Juezhou and become a Buddhist monk?"
Without waiting for Leng Ningshuang to answer, Dao Hai said quietly, "Once you enter Buddhism, it's as deep as the sea. Once you become a Buddhist disciple, there's no turning back."
Leng Ningshuang was silent for a few seconds and couldn't help but complain, "Is it really okay for you to say this as a Buddhist disciple?"
"It is because I am a Buddhist disciple that I say this. Besides, don't you military monks always say that we Buddhist disciples are ungentlemanly even if we persuade people to become monks?"
Facing Dao Hai's half-smiley squeeze, Leng Ningshuang just rolled her eyes and said, "Even now I still think that you Buddhist disciples are very low-class, but... I have now figured out one thing, that is, Yingjiu has no need to die in this life, and there is no need for him to go to Buddhism."
"You can say that," Dao Hai nodded decisively and sighed, "It is a very rare and precious spirit to go through hardships for others. The next time he is reincarnated as a human, he will definitely be a good person."
"He can be a good person in this life," Leng Ningshuang stood up and patted his pants. "Although I don't know what the fierce monster tribe has, but with Brother Li here, nothing can help. I can catch up with them in an hour at most. It's impossible for them to reach Juezhou in such a short time."
"Daohai, although I don't know why you, a bald ass, deliberately showed up here to delay time, but this is the end of it. It's really a pity."
Dao Hai laughed undeniably and put down his teacup leisurely, "Yingjiu embarked on this journey in order to cure Xiao Cui. You can bring him back by force, but what about after you bring him back? Do you have a way to cure Xiao Cui?"
Leng Ningshuang looked at Xiao Cui. Although Xiao Cui had a rosy complexion and looked very healthy at the moment, Leng Ningshuang could still sense a strong foul aura from her. If it were a cultivator, it would not matter, but Xiao Cui was just a mortal. These foul auras would continue to bring bad luck until Xiao Cui died.
"I have a better idea," Leng Ningshuang grinned, "Since Yingjiu has now paid for the evil consequences of his previous life and has no memory of his time as a monk, doesn't that mean they are two different people?"
“You could say that.”
"Xiao Cui will remember Ying Jiu in her next life, but if Ying Jiu dies, there will be no Ying Jiu in the next life," Leng Ningshuang raised her voice, "Then can we just let Ying Jiu practice? As long as Ying Jiu extends his life and finds Xiao Cui in every life, their fate can continue forever."
"Until they couldn't stand each other anymore?"
"So what? Let's part ways in peace!" Leng Ningshuang snorted coldly, "We haven't loved each other enough in this life, and you're thinking you can't stand each other anymore? Don't tell me you're too in love and can't stand Xiao Cui's death and so you're going astray. Everything hasn't even started yet. This is just negative speculation!"
Xiao Cui, who was originally depressed because of Dao Hai's words "until they can no longer stand each other", gradually brightened up in her eyes.
Seeing this, Dao Hai shook his head helplessly, "It is precisely because of this that people in the world cannot give up cultivation."
"There is nothing wrong with making up for regrets. The wrong thing is the person who uses any means to make up for the regrets. Why should we attribute the person's fault to his original intention?"
Leng Ningshuang and Dao Hai each have their own ideas, and neither can convince the other, so the final decision naturally falls to Xiao Cui.
Daohai didn't look at Xiaocui, but just shook his head, pinching the Buddhist beads regretfully, muttering that the sea of suffering is endless and it is better to turn back.
The answer was already determined from the moment Xiao Cui fell silent.
Xiao Cui is a human.
"Brother Daohai, you can continue to drink your tea and eat your cakes here. I am going to look for Brother Li now. Of course, if you want one, I will dislike it but I will not refuse it. The same goes for Brother Li. If it were not for you as a friend, Brother Li would not have made such a special trip."
Dao Hai, who was pinching the Buddha pillar, paused for a moment and sighed, "Unfortunately, this is not a situation that Brother Li can solve. For the future of this world, this Buddha must be destroyed."
Ning Ningshuang, who was still feeling proud, suddenly changed his expression and asked, "What do you mean by this!?"
As a soldier, she was disgusted by the Buddhist sect that had attempted to replace the national law with Buddhist teachings. If the Dayu Dynasty was about to send troops to destroy Buddhism, she would not really laugh, but she would not object either. However, Daohai's reaction now made her feel something was wrong.
Why does Daohai, a Buddhist disciple, seem to be in a hurry to destroy Buddhism? And from the tone of his voice, it seems that if Buddhism is not destroyed, the entire world will be in disaster.
Leng Ningshuang could only think of two things that would bring devastating disaster to the world.
The Palace of Immortals and the Naraku Demon Clan.
"Could it be that... Buddhism has long been infiltrated by the Immortal Palace!?"
…
"Lord Li has good eyesight."
"You're not even going to deny it?"
Daoyan's overly frank and straightforward answer made Li Yanmo unable to hold back his laughter. He wanted to sigh, but couldn't.
Daoyan's attitude has always been like this, as if he was waiting for Li Yanmo to ask this question and then give a positive answer.
"Yes, how did Lord Li see that?"
"Of course it's the realm. There is indeed a way to improve your cultivation in an instant in this world, but there is only one way to transform into a monster while improving your cultivation," Daoyan's attitude made Li Yanmo a little confused.
It looks as gentle as water, but it hides a rapid current.
But now he can only go with the flow.
"That means he was transformed into a ghost by the demon."
"The strength of the ghost minions is directly linked to the demon that refines them. As long as they are refined repeatedly, even if they were mortals before, they can improve their cultivation in one go. But correspondingly, the form of the ghost minions will become closer and closer to the demon that refines them."
"I have seen the scene of a demon using Buddhism to refine ghosts and the method of refining. It is strange that the demon only forced innocent people to recite scriptures. Can it refine people into ghosts just by reciting scriptures?"
"I thought the problem was with the demon, but I never thought the problem was with the Buddhist scriptures."
Li Yanmo raised his eyes, and the three huge Buddha statues that disappeared into the sky were reflected in his eyes.
"If Buddha is a demon, then people who chant Buddhist scriptures will naturally be transformed into demons. This... is why Buddhist disciples are all cultivators, but not members of the Taoist sect."
"When did the demon usurp the throne of Buddha? Or... Buddha was originally a demon."
As they were talking, Li Yuan no longer came to visit Daoqi's temple. Daoqi no longer appeared in his demon form, and he even became younger and younger, radiating Buddha's light all over his body like a real Buddha.
As if realizing something, Daoqi smiled with relief, turned around wrapped in his cassock, and the temple disappeared like a mirage in the water.
At this time, Yingjiu had become an old man. He went out as usual. When he took out the broom with great effort to sweep the snow, a young man wrapped in a cassock appeared.
Yingjiu was stunned for a few seconds, then rubbed his eyes and asked tentatively, "Li Yuan?"
Daoqi paused and turned his head to look at Yingjiu.
