Looking at Zhang Xiaopeng's back chasing Taoist Qinglian away, Butcher Zhang couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing: "Haha, this kid has the same style as I did back then. He is never stingy with the people around him."
He glanced sideways at Taoist Tianwu, curled his lips and sneered: "Much better than some old Taoist with a strong nose. I just took two more things, but someone who has been holding a grudge for so many years is so small-minded that it is hard to be elegant."
"What a bastard!" Taoist Tianwu immediately cursed after hearing this, pointed at Butcher Zhang's nose and said: "There are only two things in total. We agreed to get one for each person, but you f*cking go back on your word, betray your promise, and slap me behind my back. , knocked me unconscious, took the things and ran away. I don’t even know how fucking thick-skinned you are, but you still have the nerve to mention this?"
"Hmph!" Butcher Zhang snorted and said, "If you hadn't been cruel to me first, robbed me of my treasures, and stripped me naked and thrown me into a rotten coffin, I would have given you a sap." Really? I didn’t blow your head off with a stick, so I’m being polite."
"Ahem..." Taoist Tianwu's expression froze when he heard this. He covered his mouth with his hand and coughed twice in embarrassment. Then he looked up at the sky and said with a dry smile: "Well, the weather is good today."
Wan Qiuqing and others were listening to the conversation between the two, and they already roughly understood the grudges and disputes between the two. It should be that Taoist Tianwu first used a cunning trick to rob Butcher Zhang of his treasure, and then Butcher Zhang pretended not to know, and endured the humiliation and lurked behind the scenes. Taoist Tianwu was next to him, and in the end, he robbed Taoist Tianwu of his treasures in a tit-for-tat manner.
I guess the enmity wasn't too deep, otherwise the two would have started fighting.
…
"Junior brother, is something wrong?" Taoist Qinglian heard Zhang Xiaopou coming after him, and immediately stopped and waited for him to come over, and then asked curiously.
Women have always been emotional, and the same fantasy experience in the deserted village valley doubled her affection for Zhang Xiaozu.
Especially when she asked Zhang Xiaozu what he had done in the fantasy world, Zhang Xiaozu answered her: "Get married and have children, raise children, dig the land and farm, and live a stable life." It even poked an itch in her heart and made her I feel like I have found a soulmate in life.
Therefore, she felt kind and fond of Zhang Xiaozhu, her junior brother.
Zhang Xiaozu made a gesture towards Taoist Qinglian, indicating that he was walking and talking, and then asked: "Senior sister, are you planning to give the holy blood to Master Huijing to help him break through his mental barriers and reach the other side?"
Taoist Qinglian regarded Zhang Xiaopou as his confidant, so he did not shy away from talking to him about his emotional problems. He nodded and looked at the lonely back of the monk who was already halfway down the mountain. He sighed quietly and said: "There was once someone who said... I said that loving someone doesn't mean you have to get it. Sometimes letting go is also love. I have always scoffed at this, thinking that if you let go, there is no point in talking about whether you love or not.
So I kept clinging to him, pestering him, and annoying him. Twenty years passed, and although I couldn't get him to give up Buddhism and fly together with me, I still had regrets in my heart. But after all, I had more happy times and less pain and troubles. With fewer days, I can live a more peaceful life.
I always thought he was the same, with more happiness and less pain and troubles. But just now I saw him looking up at the sky, not seeing the power of the stars falling on him, the deep loss and pain that could not be hidden in his expression, and then looking at his lonely back leaving alone, I realized that I was taking it for granted. , maybe I have more troubles and pains than happiness for him, or maybe there is only troubles and pains at all, and no happiness at all. "
"I can feel that Master Huijing has a senior sister in his heart. In fact, everyone can see it." Zhang Xiaozhu comforted him.
"But I have become a barrier to his heart, blocking his path to Buddhism, and becoming the source of pain in his heart." Taoist Qinglian said bitterly, "I just saw him lose and suffer because he failed to reach the other shore. I My heartache was worse than his. At that moment, I suddenly realized that what that person said was right. If you love deeply, letting go is also love."
Zhang Xiaozu saw that it was quiet everywhere and no one saw this place, so he stopped and said: "No matter what senior sister decides, junior brother will support it unconditionally."
After speaking, he used his left hand and took out a drop of holy blood from the mustard seeds.
Taoist Qinglian was startled, and hurriedly swept away the dust in his hand. The dust spread out, covering the holy blood in Zhang Xiaopou's hand. He said with a serious expression: "Reckless, how can you reveal such a valuable treasure at will? Be careful not to be seen by others." You have evil intentions, put it away quickly!"
"Thank you, Senior Sister, for your concern." Zhang Xiaozu said thank you, but did not follow the instructions with his hands, saying: "Actually, this drop of holy blood was originally intended for the master, but when it was brought to the master's mouth, I regretted it and kept it, because I I heard from Master that the holy blood has the effect of purifying the soul. I am afraid that if this drop of holy blood is put into the master's mouth, if the master turns into a master with six pure roots, Huijing, it will end up causing suffering for senior sister, so -"
Taoist Qinglian felt a warm feeling in his heart when he heard this, and said with a smile: "I am not very old, but I have a lot of thoughts, but senior sister likes it, and senior sister has remembered it."
Zhang Xiaozu took out an empty jade bottle from Xumi Mustard Seed, put the holy blood into the jade bottle, handed it to Taoist Qinglian, and said: "Now give this drop of holy blood to senior sister. Whether to give it to the master or not, senior sister must Think twice."
"This is too valuable. Senior sister can't have it. I can just take out this drop from my sea of consciousness and give it to him." Taoist Qinglian shied away. If it were an ordinary treasure, she would have accepted it with thanks, but the holy blood is so precious. It was too precious. Zhang Xiaozu had already given her a drop. How could she have the nerve to ask for another drop?
Zhang Xiaozu waved away the jade bottle pushed back by Taoist Qinglian and said, "Senior Sister, there is no need to be polite to me. I still have a lot of holy blood here. If Senior Sister needs it, it won't be a problem to give Senior Sister ten or eight drops."
"——" Taoist Qinglian couldn't help being shocked when he heard this. After a moment of silence, he looked at Zhang Xiaozhu's wealthy appearance and laughed dumbly: "Looking at your appearance as a rich man, I can see that you really made a fortune. In this case, senior sister will not be polite to you."
"Hehe -" Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't help but chuckle proudly.
He does have the capital to be proud of, because if it is compared with what he gained in the underground ancient city, he dares to pat his chest and say that the sum total of everyone's gains may not be as much as his, and the holy blood is only a part of all his gains.
Taoist Qinglian put away the jade bottle and suddenly asked Zhang Xiaozu: "If you were me, how would you choose?"
Zhang Xiaozhu looked startled, frowned slightly and pondered for a moment, then said: "Put the holy blood in front of the great monk and let the great monk make a decision. Furthermore, although the holy blood has the effect of purifying the soul, it may not really make people happy." If the great monk forgets his senior sister, maybe it will not only help the great monk reach the other shore, but also prevent the great monk from forgetting his senior sister. To say the least, even if the holy blood can really purify the great monk's six sense organs, it will not prevent the senior monk from continuing to pester him. Him. If anyone dares to make irresponsible remarks, senior sister, just tell me and see if I don’t beat them to the ground."
"Haha, that's the truth." Taoist Qinglian burst into laughter. Zhang Xiaozu's words made her suddenly enlightened. She thanked Zhang Xiaozu, and she happily hummed a ditty and stepped on Qinglian towards the great monk. Rushed away in pursuit.
"Amitabha!" Zhang Xiaozhu clasped his hands and shouted the Buddha's name in the direction where the great monk left. He mourned for three breaths of silence for the great monk in his heart, feeling that the great monk would never be able to escape from the palm of Taoist Qinglian in this life.
After watching Taoist Qinglian leave, Zhang Xiaopou turned around and walked up the mountain. Suddenly he heard an extremely excited shout coming from the mountain. He couldn't help but listen carefully. He heard someone calling for water, as if he had discovered the source of water. After thinking for a moment, he guessed where the water came from. It must have gushed out of the big crack.
Niu Dawa stood on the top of the mountain and waved to Zhang Xiaopou, and shouted to urge him to walk faster and go swimming and bathing in the water together.
Zhang Xiaozu immediately spread out his body and rushed to the top of the mountain as fast as possible.
He was doused in the stinky blood in the ancient city, and then flew into the sky inexplicably, plunged into the ocean of filthy blood, soaked in the ocean of filthy blood for a long time, and then entered the confined space. After a big battle with Yu Wenrui, he was covered in his own blood and hot sweat. Although the large and small injuries on his body had healed quickly after drinking the essence and blood of the ancient corpse, there was no less blood stain from head to toe. It was sticky and smelly, and he wanted to immediately dive into the water to wash himself, and then change into fresh and clean clothes.
When Zhang Xiaozu rushed to the top of the mountain and looked at the Badwater Swamp, he couldn't help but be stunned by the scenery that jumped into his eyes.
I saw that the large crack that split the Badwater Swamp in half was spraying clean water turbulently, instead of slowly pouring out as Zhang Xiaozu imagined, and the water column sprayed five or six feet high, and the overall look was like An upside down waterfall.
The clear water sparkles with crystal luster under the sunlight, and the splashing water mist spreads in the air. When the sunlight shines in, it actually draws a beautiful long rainbow bridge in the air.
In just a short while, the deepest part of the center of the Badwater Swamp had gathered into a lake with a radius of a hundred feet, and the water level was rising rapidly.
Looking at the sixty-seventy-foot-deep depression in the ground of Badshui Swamp, Zhang Xiaozhu felt that Badshui Swamp would have to be renamed from now on to Badshui Great Lake, a large lake covering an area of a hundred miles.
The cultivators scattered in all directions were happily running towards the Badwater Swamp, because each of them was covered in blood, and like Zhang Xiaopou, they all wanted to dive into the clear water to wash themselves and put on clean and refreshing clothes. That's the best, but it doesn't matter if you don't have to change it.
Niu Dawa used the Domain of Wind to carry Zhang Xiaozu, Zhou Jianlai and Yuan Taiping, and flew across the lake to remove the Domain of Wind. The four of them suddenly fell into the lake like dumplings.
Yuan Taiping was so frightened that he screamed because he was a landlubber who was not good at water. Soon enough, at the moment he fell, his body suddenly moved two feet sideways, and his arms hugged Niu Dawa's neck from behind. Niu Dawa was caught off guard and was strangled so hard that he rolled his eyes.
Boom!
Zhang Xiaozu plunged into the water, swung his waist, abdomen, legs and feet, and immediately dived to the bottom like a fish.
He is very good at water, but he has not played in the water for a long time, so he immediately became excited as soon as he entered the water and wanted to take this rare opportunity to have fun. But as soon as he dived about two feet underwater, he suddenly felt a thump in his heart and felt an inexplicable palpitation.
This was an intuitive reaction to danger. Zhang Xiaozu's heart immediately sounded alarm, and he hurriedly entered into his inner state of mind. A familiar face suddenly appeared in his field of vision, which almost scared him out of his wits.
Only then did he remember that since Yuwen Rui and the people from Yaowang Valley were here, the Ghost Eye Artifact Spirit that had been following them was most likely also here. In fact, he had already thought about this problem when he was in the underground ancient city, but when he came out After that, he forgot about this matter, so that he ignored the existence of this danger, and did not enter a subtle state of mind after entering the water.
Of course, the reason why he was not in a subtle state of mind was because a group of old men were taking a bath around him, and he really had no interest in observing their wild bodies in detail.
Now he no longer needs to guess whether the ghost-eyed weapon spirit has followed Yuwen Rui and the people from Yaowang Valley, because the ghost-eyed weapon spirit has already appeared in front of him. When he opened the subtle state of mind, she was still a hundred steps away, but next The moment had come to him.
The water is her territory.
