Along with the cold air, there was also a cold bloody smell, and the thawed stone chamber revealed the figures of three people. Yang Ziyang had already fallen asleep, and the little monk with red lips and white teeth also passed out. Only the shy little monk remained awake.
Knowing that the young monk was in a coma due to excessive consumption of divine energy, Shi Wuzheng quickly sent a message to the headmaster at the foot of the mountain and asked the headmaster to bring him the elixir to strengthen his body and cultivate his vitality.
Shi Wuzheng checked on the physical conditions of the two young monks and Yang Ziyang. Fortunately, the three of them were not affected by the cold air and were in good health. However, their spiritual energy was too much depleted.
The headmaster of Wudang arrived with the elixir and fed it to the two young monks and Yang Ziyang. Shi Wuzheng and Duan Shiyan respectively used their kung fu to catalyze the elixir to the sleeping two people to nourish the excessive loss of divine energy.
Afraid that the sleeping two people would be invaded by the cold air, Shi Wuzheng used Taoism to activate the Yang Fire and poured the Yang Fire into the underground and walls of the stone chamber to keep the stone chamber warm.
The shy little monk took the elixir, adjusted his breath, moved to a position against the wall, slowly closed his eyes, and entered a state of meditation.
Use the Ice Heart Technique to activate the extremely cold air to freeze Yang Ziyang's body, causing her to fall into a state similar to hibernation. Then use her consciousness to penetrate into Yang Ziyang's heart and peel off the inner demons one by one. Only the two young monks knew how big the risk was. Fortunately, they succeeded, otherwise the three of them would have died together.
After settling the three people, Shi Wuzheng explained the situation to the headmaster Duan Shiyan and told him the origins of the two young monks. The headmaster of Wudang naturally had nothing to say.
There are a lot of nourishing medicines on Wudang Mountain. The two young monks ate bear bile and ginseng as meals every day. Even so, it took them two full days of training to recover. Yang Ziyang recovered faster than the two of them.
With his inner demons peeled away, Yang Ziyang returned to normal. After waking up, he was naturally extremely grateful to Shi Wuzheng and thanked the headmaster of Wudang in person.
Although Yang Ziyang didn't know the identity of the two young monks, he was able to make Shi Wuzheng treat each other with courtesy and get rid of her inner demons. He was certainly not an ordinary person, so he was grateful.
The two young monks regained their energy, and the headmaster of Wudang arranged a table of delicious food. The five of them ate and drank in the stone room to replenish their physical strength.
"Can monks also eat meat?" Yang Ziyang asked curiously.
The two young monks did not abstain from alcohol and meat, and did not avoid meat and fish. They ate everything.
"Everything has spirituality, including chickens, ducks, fish, melons, fruits and vegetables. There is no difference between eating meat and eating vegetables. Buddhism cultivates the heart, not external things. If you have Buddha in your heart, you can eat anything." said the young monk with red lips and white teeth. .
"What is a Buddha and what is a demon?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"Buddha is human nature and good nature, while devil is obsession and suffering." The young monk said.
"I've been thinking about Brother Xiang. Is it suffering or a demon?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"Asking and not getting it results in suffering, and all living beings suffer. Demons are suffering, suffering is not demons, suffering is demons, they are all in one thought, whether they are good thoughts or evil thoughts." said the young monk with red lips and white teeth.
"What is Tao?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"Tao is also human nature and good nature." Wudang teaches Tao.
"What's the difference between Buddha and Tao?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"From a starting point, there is no difference between Buddhism and Taoism. They both encourage people to do good, but they use different methods. Although the inside is the same, there must be some differences in appearance, otherwise people will not be able to tell the difference. Buddhism always has to If a Taoist priest shaves his head and puts on a bun, he becomes a monk. If a Taoist priest shaves his head and wears a cassock, and the monk puts on a bun, the monk becomes a Taoist priest, and the Taoist priest becomes a monk. If a monk puts on a bun, he is no longer a monk. Well, a Taoist priest is still a Taoist priest after shaving his head." Shi Wuzheng said.
"It actually encourages people to do good. Those temples always ask people to donate money. If you don't donate, it's bad. If you don't believe it, you will go to hell in the next life. How to explain this?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"There is no hell in the world. To scare people by saying you will go to hell and go to heaven is just to make money from Buddha. You have already deviated from Buddhism. If you are wholeheartedly doing good, you can smash the Buddha statue in the temple without any problem." The young monk said.
"There is no heaven and hell, which means that no matter how many good things you do in this life, there will be no reward?" Yang Ziyang said.
"If people's hearts are all good, they will naturally be rewarded. It is precisely because people's hearts are different that there is Buddhism and the Buddha's way encourages people to do good." The young monk said.
"If I do good deeds because I want to be rewarded, am I still doing good deeds?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"Even if you save one person in order to kill another person, saving one person is still a good deed." The young monk said.
"What if I kill everyone in the world to save Brother Xiang?" Yang Ziyang's question became more and more extreme.
"Cause and effect are good, and the process is evil." The young monk said.
"Then can I still save him?" Yang Ziyang turned to look at Shi Wuzheng.
Shi Wuzheng was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Yang Ziyang to ask this question. Obviously Yang Ziyang asked so many questions before because of this sentence. This little girl is not naive, on the contrary, she is very mature and sophisticated.
Killing tens of thousands of people to save one person, can it be saved?
Yes, then Yang Ziyang will kill tens of millions more people. It doesn't matter how he becomes a demon. Only by becoming a demon can he reach the limit of madness the fastest.
Yang Ziyang believed that if someone could freeze Chu Xiang, someone could break the imprisonment. As long as he was strong enough, it wouldn't be a problem.
"Of course we have to save him, but now is not the time." Shi Wuzheng said.
"When is the time?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"I can't tell the specific time. According to my guess, it should be almost the time Li Quezi's three-year appointment arrives." Shi Wuzheng said.
"Why does it have to come to that time?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"This involves a three-year agreement, the resurrection of Emperor Qin, and the forces of all parties involved. I only know a rough idea. Everything is planned by the ancestor. After all, the ancestor will not put him to death." Shi Wuzheng said.
When the words Patriarch Shi Wuzheng came out of his mouth, Yang Ziyang didn't think anything, but the expressions of the young monk and Wudang Master changed.
"Fellow Taoist Wuzheng, are you sure it was Tao Zun's plan?" the young monk asked solemnly.
"OK." Shi Wuzheng nodded.
"What's going on?" Wudang Headmaster asked. He didn't know the ins and outs of this matter, and Shi Wuzheng didn't tell him.
"A long time ago, he fell into the scheme of the fifth family and became the backup body for Emperor Qin's resurrection. That's why the Xuanyuan Sword fell into his hands. In the meantime, the Xuanyuan Sword was probably shot by the powerful master of Shushan. Tao Zun set up this situation and used the hands of the ancestors of the wizards to freeze him in time and space, so that Emperor Qin's plan to seize the body failed. At the same time, he defeated Shushan's plan. When Emperor Qin failed to resurrect, there should be someone who could save him. Here's a chance." Shi Wuzheng said.
After saying this, both the young monk and the headmaster of Wudang were surprised. Unexpectedly, this involved a game of power from so many parties, and each party was at the pinnacle of the world. Ordinary people would have no chance of surviving, but Taoist Master could still leave behind such an exquisite layout after his death, breaking through it. The calculations of Emperor Qin and Shushan were truly astonishing.
Yang Ziyang still didn't understand the horror of the three-party game, and asked: "Is this your speculation or has it been confirmed?"
"This is the result calculated by his military advisors and staff, plus Gongsun Qi, and the whereabouts of people from the Fifth Family and Shushan were discovered in Pirate Alley the day before yesterday and yesterday," Shi Wuzheng said.
After the plot was broken, of course they had to check the target person's situation immediately. This was enough to show that the Fifth Family and Shushan were involved in manipulating Chu Xiang's fate.
"What about Yingzhao? Yingzhao came to Wudang because of the layout of the ancestor?" asked the headmaster of Wudang.
"That's right." Shi Wuzheng nodded.
There is no plan left, this is the terror of a cultivator who stands at the pinnacle of the world. Hundreds of years after his death, he still has everything under control. Without that level, it is completely impossible to see through the plan.
"What conditions were used to select Emperor Qin's body?" the young monk asked.
"I don't know, I just know that Li Tianxing is one of them." Shi Wuzheng said.
"From this point of view, if you want to become the backup body for Emperor Qin's resurrection, it is certain that the first condition is that your cultivation level must reach a certain level." Wudang Headmaster said.
"Old Chu once asked me about bloodline inheritance. From what I think, there must be similarities in bloodline." Shi Wuzheng said.
"The third thing is, of course, to have come into contact with things related to Emperor Qin." The young monk said.
"According to what Wuzheng said, Emperor Qin is very resourceful and must be prepared for variables. If only Li Tianxing is left as a backup, the Patriarch may also have some means to deal with it. In my opinion, I'm afraid there will be more than one or two backups. ." Wudang Headmaster said in a deep voice.
"Maybe we cast a wide net and pick the best ones," the young monk said.
"It's possible, but it's definitely more than that, otherwise the Patriarch wouldn't have planned for Lao Chu only, instead of including everyone." Shi Wuzheng said.
"Chu Xiang must be the key, otherwise the Xuanyuan Sword would not fall on him." Wudang Headmaster said.
"Then what should I do now?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"Concentrate on your cultivation, improve your strength, and wait until the time comes." Shi Wuzheng said.
After a moment of silence, Yang Ziyang said, "I'll go to Pirate Alley to see Brother Xiang first."
"It's thousands of miles away from Pirate Alley, and the journey is dangerous. Girl, think twice." The headmaster of Wudang advised.
"I know." Yang Ziyang said, his mind has been made up and will not change again.
"In that case, my junior brother and I have also returned to Wucheng. If there is any news, Headmaster Duan and fellow Taoist Wu Zheng will convey it to us in a timely manner," the young monk said.
Knowing that Chu Xiang was not a dead end, but was just a plan laid out by Tao Zun to solve his problem, the two young monks finally let go of their worries.
"That's natural." Wudang Master said.
"Don't tell anyone what you said today, otherwise the situation will change and be dangerous." Shi Wuzheng warned.
Although Shi Wuzheng knew that they would not leak it casually, he was still a little worried and warned him. After all, this matter was of great concern. Once it was leaked, unpredictable changes might occur, which would truly endanger Chu Xiang's life.
"Young monk understands." The young monk put his hands together and said.
