Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division
Chapter 208 Those who practice Taoism should protect all living beings!
In the next few days, news from the Demon Slayer Divisions in various places continued to arrive.
Under the protection of the city defense formation, most cities basically blocked the attacks of demons.
However, only Liangzhou City was destroyed because of the appearance of the Incense God, and all the people in the city were killed.
In addition to grief, the capital had to be on high alert.
The Demon Slayer Division also sent more spies to continuously explore the traces of the Incense God.
After all, there is evidence that the thing has come to the capital.
The Incense God in the Soul Refining Realm cannot be ignored.
In the capital.
In recent days, both the Demon Slayer Division and the ministers in the court have been extremely nervous.
No one wants the capital to become another Liangzhou City.
However, the court did not announce this news to the people in the city. After all, that would only cause panic, and there is no other meaning.
Of course, it is not that no one has thought about escaping from the capital in advance and going to other cities for refuge.
After all, in the current Jin Dynasty, only the capital has to face the threat of the Incense God.
However, looking at the demons and evil spirits outside the city, some people gave up the idea.
Because staying in the city now at least has a chance of survival.
But if you leave the city, you will probably be torn to pieces by the demons in the wilderness in an instant, and not even your bones will be left.
This morning.
The court was more solemn than ever before, and the monks of the Demon Slayer Department climbed the city wall early and waited for battle.
Because according to the spies, the incense god will arrive in the capital today.
This battle is a matter of life and death.
If you can survive, everything will be fine.
But if you can't survive, it means that the entire capital will be completely destroyed like Liangzhou City.
All the people in the city will become blood food for the demons at that time, and no one will be spared.
In this tense atmosphere, Zhao Mu walked leisurely to a breakfast stall.
The owner of this breakfast stall is an old woman with white hair, and there is a little girl of seven or eight years old beside her.
The old woman is already very old, but she is still working hard to run the stall to raise her granddaughter.
The little girl is also very diligent. As long as there are customers, she will immediately come forward to ask them what they want to eat.
When her grandmother finishes making breakfast, the little girl will use her little hands to bring breakfast to the guests on the table.
Even if she is burned by the scalding breakfast, she will only grit her teeth, blush her little face and say nothing.
She is sensible, which really makes people feel distressed.
"Master, what do you want to eat?"
The little girl saw Zhao Mu and ran over to ask immediately.
"Give me a bowl of porridge and five buns."
Zhao Mu sat at the table and said softly.
"Okay, Master, please wait a moment."
The little girl immediately ran back, burned her little hands, took out five freshly baked buns from the steamer, and also served a bowl of porridge, and brought it up on a tray.
"Thank you."
Zhao Mu nodded gently and said with a smile.
But the little girl didn't leave. Instead, she looked at Zhao Mu seriously with her big eyes.
"What's wrong, little girl?"
"Master, are you a monk from the Demon Slayer Division?"
"I guess so."
"Then I won't charge you for this breakfast."
"Why?" Zhao Mu was surprised.
"Grandma said that the adults in the Demon Slayer Division are all good people, heroes who risk their lives to protect us, so we can't take your money."
The little girl's innocent eyes flickered with gratitude.
Zhao Mu was silent for a while and asked, "Little girl, where are your parents?"
"Dead."
The little girl lowered her head and her eyes suddenly turned red: "A few years ago, we lived outside the city. One day, a tiger demon suddenly came to our house. In order to protect me and grandma, my parents led the tiger demon away and never came back."
"Grandma always said that my parents were still alive, but they had been doing business outside and had not come back, but I knew that my parents must be dead."
"Grandma didn't dare to tell me just because she was afraid that I would be sad. I was also afraid that grandma would be sad, so I always pretended to believe her."
The little girl bit her lip and looked at Zhao Mu with red eyes: "Master, the capital city will definitely not be broken by demons, right? This is our last chance to survive?"
The breakfast stall suddenly fell into a dead silence.
All the people who were eating breakfast looked at Zhao Mu at this moment.
Their eyes were full of fear, helplessness and expectation.
Zhao Mu glanced outside the city, turned back and gently touched the little girl's hair: "Don't worry, as long as the Taoist priest is here, the capital will never be broken."
"Thank you, Taoist priest."
The little girl suddenly cheered and jumped up: "Grandma, grandma, the Taoist priest said that the capital will never be broken, we don't have to be afraid."
Zhao Mu smiled slightly, didn't say anything else, just picked up the buns and ate them seriously.
In fact, facing the upcoming incense god, Zhao Mu has a better choice, that is, abandon the city and escape.
With his cultivation, even if he enters the wilderness full of demons, he has enough strength to survive.
But he didn't leave.
Because he is not a cold-blooded person after all, he can't be absolutely selfish.
He really can't watch hundreds of thousands of people in this city die tragically at the mouths of demons, and remain indifferent.
A real man has his own way and his own way.
People who practice Taoism do pursue freedom in the world and freedom from restraint.
But that doesn’t mean that practicing Taoism means being inhumane.
Being too arrogant does not mean that you really have no feelings, but you just want to look down on the little love in the world.
But the great love of those who practice Taoism lies in all living beings.
What are sentient beings?
Isn't it the little girl and her grandma?
Aren't they just the common people who wait for breakfast at this stall?
If you don't even care about these things, then why bother cultivating the Tao?
With such a Tao, even if you really become an immortal through cultivation, what's the point?
It's just a pile of rotten meat!
Zhao Mu finished eating the steamed buns and drank the porridge seriously. There was not even a grain of rice left in the bowl.
He took out two copper coins from his arms and placed them gently on the table.
"Taoist Master, we don't take your money."
When the little girl saw this, she quickly shouted and ran over.
But Zhao Mu smiled at her and suddenly disappeared from the table.
The little girl rubbed her eyes and shouted in surprise: "Grandma, grandma, that Taoist priest is a god, hehe, what he said must be true, and our capital will definitely not be broken."
Zhao Mu, who was hiding in the dark, saw this, a faint smile appeared on his lips, turned around and walked towards the top of the city.
He could feel a powerful aura appearing outside the city.
The breath didn't look like a human being, a demon, or an evil spirit. It was just a holy breath mixed with a vicious smell.
The god of incense and fire has finally arrived!
Haha, is the Soul Refining Realm amazing?
Today, Master Dao, I will meet your Soul Refining Realm!
I want to see if you kill me or if I twist off your head?
