White Lotus Enlightenment in the Ancient World

The road in Jianghu was dangerous, so He Zhou did not go over to strike up a conversation with great fanfare. Instead, he fumbled around the hall and looked at the surrounding layout.

The statue of the Supreme Lord in the temple is already very dilapidated, and the golden paint painted on it is even more mottled and peeling off, making it look like an old man with sores, making it even more eerie.

However, as the sound of chanting slowly reached his ears, the fear in his heart disappeared like dry wood into the fire.

He glanced at the two beggars in the side hall with his peripheral vision. They seemed to be too tired from the journey. Although they were still paying attention to the situation here, they were nodding and yawning.

He knew the opportunity was just right.

"Little brother!"

He Zhou shouted softly behind the back of everyone, and as he spoke, he wanted to pat this big-hearted young man.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, a ripple spread quickly around his index finger!

Buzz—!

In just an instant, noisy chanting suddenly sounded in the hall!

"What!"

He Zhou was panicked and couldn't help but look around!

"This is!"

He was horrified to find that as the ripples spread, the temple turned into a Taoist holy land full of incense!

The mottled old statues turned into golden celestial beings, the dilapidated Taoist temple became as spotless as if washed by clean water, and even the overturned incense burner was intact as before!

Unexpectedly, thousands of incense sticks were being held in the incense burner. As it burned slowly, the thick smoke filled the entire Taoist temple and obscured his sight.

The aroma was very strange, different from anything he had smelled before. It seemed to smell like dead fish, which made him dizzy.

And when he looked back to his side, where were the shadows of Uncle Liu and his brothers?

"I……"

"What are you doing? I don't see that the pilgrim is thirsty. Go and make tea!"

Before he could recover from his shock, a young man in a green robe pulled him out of the hall by his sleeves.

"You idiot, what are you still doing here?"

"Well……"

He Zhou was a little confused. Looking at the Taoist temple with all the fireworks, he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart.

I am afraid that I am not possessed by a ghost. Could it be that the two brothers and sisters are ghosts? ?

He couldn't help but shudder. He never thought that there was a ghost under Lao Jun!

He tried pinching his thigh, and the sharp pain made him realize that this was not a pure dream.

"If I had known this, I shouldn't have come out!"

He Zhou sighed desperately and looked down at himself. Only then did he realize that the clothes on his body had turned into dry Taoist robes, and the gray-brown color could be vaguely seen on the washed white fabric.

The young Taoist in front was urging him again. It seemed that he was a handyman in the Taoist temple, responsible for serving tea and water.

As his mind calmed down, He Zhou also calmed down.

"The ghosts didn't kill me directly, maybe they just wanted me to accompany them to relieve their boredom."

His eyes moved slightly. There was always a cause and effect for ghosts' killings. Maybe if he satisfied them, he could escape.

Thinking of this, he finally stopped standing there as a stake. After finding the spot where the handymen were running, he walked over on his own initiative. He really wanted to make tea for these unknown things.

"Alas, I don't know where Uncle Liu and the others are."

He sighed slightly. Although he felt grudged by Gou Wang's death, he still hoped that his brothers could return home safely.

…

Looking at this illusory bubble, Chang Yi, who was flying in the air, slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

"It's interesting."

As soon as this group of people entered the palace, he noticed the strange movements of the innocent souls. Whether it was due to causality or simply because there were so many men, these female evil spirits spontaneously constructed an ecstasy illusion, pulling them all into the shadow of the past.

It's just that with Chang Yi's state, even if he was deliberately trapped, he couldn't do it, so he could only take the initiative to open the void and come in to take a look.

"Master, the resentment here is really serious. I think we should ask the officials from the underworld to try it out."

Meng Li waved his hand in disgust and pushed away the turbid air that had escaped.

Chang Yi heard this and felt that it should be the case. The rules of the small world are unstable, and the matter of reincarnation cannot be directly related to the prehistoric period. Therefore, it has been "ending in one life" for a long time, which is similar to the prehistoric period before the manifestation of reincarnation.

However, there are obviously a lot of secrets hidden in this temple now. As the Taoist temple named after me, Chang Yi plans to "travel" in person. In the future, he can also use this to warn the six saints to be careful about the head and tail, and don't just throw away the Taoism. Shopkeeper.

As for the private underworld, he still needs to activate the divine law to connect with the world. However, if there is too much movement, many things will not be explored.

So he didn't take action, just turned back to look at He Zhou's position, and opened his lips lightly.

"That man's character is quite good. It just so happens that you have just learned a few techniques, so go and protect him."

"Yes! Master!"

Meng Li immediately agreed with joy. She was just trying to see how different the dream created by this ghost was.

All I saw was a halo of light,

Meng Li turned into a little Taoist boy and followed He Zhou very hard, holding on to the hem of his clothes and not letting go.

"Brother, I'm hungry!"

"Uh, you are..."

He Zhou was helpless when he was entangled by a naughty child. Where did this unlucky child come from? How could he find time to find food for him if his life was in danger?

But Meng Li didn't care so much, she just kept grabbing him and pulling him back, not letting him get close to the well.

"Hey, okay, okay, okay, I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."

He Zhou was so frustrated by him that he had no choice but to take him to the kitchen.

And when the two people walked away, the sound of lapping water seemed to come from the deep well. If anyone looked inside, they could see a beautiful woman floating on the water, calling to her lover who was passing by...

Chang Yi in the sky no longer paid attention to Meng Li and the others, but instead looked at the businessmen and beggars.

At this moment, they were all forged by resentment and turned into servants in the temple. Judging from the situation, the ghost behind this situation should not be a murderer. She just wanted to see if these people had the need to survive.

Chang Yi did not summon her directly. Not many souls who died unjustly could maintain their sanity. He also wanted to see how these "evil people" died.

Chirp——

Unexpectedly, a silver bird landed playfully on the branch. It tilted its little head and looked at the various believers in the temple.

At this time, He Zhou had already brought Meng Li outside the kitchen. Perhaps because there were too many pilgrims, the place was already in full swing even though it was not yet noon.

However, no matter how hot the fire was, it could not make He Zhou feel any warmth at all. However, the little hand of the child next to him was warm and reassuring.

"Shh, don't make any noise. I'll quietly go in and take a look."

He Zhou made a silent gesture and wanted to go in first to have a look, but he didn't expect this Taoist boy to just let go and insist on going in with him.

"Don't even think about going in and eating alone!"

"Hey! You kid!"

He Zhou laughed angrily for a moment, and he turned into a glutton.

But he didn't feel so nervous when he smiled now. He thought about what he was doing secretly now that he was a handyman. No matter how cautious he was, it would be useless if he would die just for a quick look.

Thinking of this, he immediately became ambitious and planned to die in peace, and walked into the kitchen with Meng Li without saying a word.

But as soon as he stepped in, the morale he felt just now disappeared.

I saw that the cooks inside all had big heads and round waists, and their eyes were as wide as copper bells, and seemed to be shining with blood!

He Zhou's heart trembled, he was really afraid that if they tried harder, their eyes would pop out...

But that was nothing. What made him sick was that the meat on the eucalyptus board was not cattle or sheep at all, but the broken limbs of many dead people!

He swallowed hard, and for some reason, he suddenly felt like peeing...

"Hey, hey, the masters are busy."

He turned around stiffly and wanted to pull Meng Li away. Who would have thought that this little Taoist boy was like a stone, but he didn't pull him for a moment!

Seeing his expression, the child was not afraid at all. He even pulled him forward and pulled out something like a yam from the vegetable basket on the side.

"Tch, who are you trying to scare?"

Meng Li looked disdainful. As a creature born in the sea of ​​blood, could such a corpse scare her?

As she said that, she pushed the "yam" to He Zhou and clicked her tongue in disgust.

"The bones in your body are too weak. You can barely use this thing. Eat it quickly."

"Huh? Eat it!"

He had just seen the mountain of blood and the sea of ​​corpses, so he had no appetite to eat. It was obvious that the boy had a serious look on his face, and He Zhou didn't know what to do for a moment.

But the strange thing is that these cooks looked fierce, but they didn't even dare to fart in front of this little Taoist boy.

He Zhou's mind was slightly moved. Could it be that this child is the disciple of Taoist Master Guanzhong and has a high status?

"Uh, why don't we go back first and wash this... thing and share it equally between us?"

He was also a little unsure and did not dare to underestimate Meng Li anymore.

"That's fine, it's so smoky here and it smells really bad."

Meng Li frowned and nodded, then followed He Zhou out of the kitchen.

As soon as the two of them walked out, He Zhou suddenly felt like he had escaped and ascended to heaven, and he had an inexplicable premonition in his heart. If the child hadn't been following him just now, he would have turned into one of those pork on the eucalyptus board, and he would have been left to chance. Slaughter!

"Huh, let's go quickly!"

Holding Meng Li's little hand, He Zhoufeng fled back to the quiet room just now, fearing that the cooks would chase him out with a kitchen knife.

Meng Li on the side couldn't help but laugh when she saw his anxious look. She could annihilate this place with a wave of her hand, so there was no need to be so scared.

However, remembering her master's instructions, she still followed He Zhou and ran back obediently, but her expression was quite relaxed, and she would observe the wonders of this place from time to time.

He Zhou's side is "a mountain of knives and a sea of ​​fire", but the other shabby settlements are like a duck in water.

As old foxes in the world, they naturally know how to please the upper class. Among them, Uncle Liu and the two beggars are especially loved by the Taoist priests.

Not only were the three of them given so-called peace charms, they were even promoted to Taoist boys!

The young businessmen who had already joined Uncle Liu thought that this was their way out, so they all went to please Taoist Guanzhong, either by serving tea or water or rubbing their shoulders and backs.

In this way, "the love lasts for a long time", and some private work will gradually be handed over to them.

Only then did they suddenly understand why this remote Taoist temple was still so prosperous in this dim world.

It's a pity that after boarding the pirate ship, I couldn't think about it anymore.
