Ning Fan's heart was very confused. His Taoist heart was affected by the sadness of the faceless giant, and was also tainted with sadness and confusion.
His way is persistence, and his character is extremely paranoid. If a paranoid person is not disturbed, it is almost difficult to be influenced by the outside world, which is his advantage; but at the same time, once a paranoid person gets into a corner, it is also difficult to get out of it.
Ning Fan was in this situation at the moment. He was in a daze and couldn't extricate himself.
He felt powerless, and for the first time in his life, he felt the horror of reincarnation. The source of that fear was not true and false, not me and not myself, not life and death, not existence and destruction, but eternal loneliness.
It’s such a pain to spend your eternal life looking for someone but not finding someone.
Why is the faceless giant looking for someone? Because he lost, he had nothing, he lost everything he wanted...
"Is that faceless giant really my future, or am I his future... Should I be the master and he is the slave, or is he the master and I am the slave..."
"If he is my future, then I don't want such a future, how can I avoid it..."
"Or maybe I'm not his future, and he's not my past. I'm just a ray of magical power from such a powerful person. Even existence itself is false, and all the past and future are fabrications... That kind of me is no longer here. It’s me…”
"Haha, so what if I am me, so what if I'm not me, I don't really care about all this, and it's rare for me to think about it. What I'm afraid of is actually stepping into the future of the faceless giant. After losing everything, Eternal loneliness…”
"How to...avoid this kind of future...Is this kind of future really something you can avoid if you want to..."
Ning Fan sighed.
The more clearly Ning Fan understands reincarnation, the more he understands that there are some things that you cannot escape the more you try to escape.
That's why you need that trace of paranoia to swim upstream and hit the great circle of reincarnation hard, even if you hit your head and bleed.
Maybe it can knock out a glimmer of life, maybe it can't... But you can only know if you try.
If you can't hit it once, hit it ten times!
If you can't hit it ten times, then hit it a hundred times!
Gradually, Ning Fan swept away the confusion in his heart, but only that sadness was engraved in his heart, which he could not get rid of.
Sure enough, no matter how strong his Taoist heart was, he could not truly eliminate his feelings. He could sweep away all the confusion in his heart, but he could not sweep away only the sadness.
This is the trouble with having seven emotions in his body, but only with emotions in his body can he be called a human being, not just a fairy or a demon.
"Lord Ant, I thought I could barely accept the reality of being possessed by you, but you insist on killing me in your dream. As expected, I still want to kill you even more."
"Hey, that thief crane can't do anything to me. How can you get rid of me? The most you can do is threaten me with your charm. Come on, come on. If I dare to kill you in my dream, just I am ready to be tortured by you, not to mention, after I have been tortured by you several times, I have really learned something about it. I used to be a pure cultivator in the Hongjun Holy Sect, and I have never been exposed to this kind of love. Don't tell me, it's quite wonderful." The ant owner said harshly.
"Don't be so harsh, you are actually still scared inside, afraid that I will expose your embarrassing posture into a jade slip and spread it throughout the real world."
"You...you are so shameless! But you don't have to be harsh. Do you really dare to run to the real world? I know you don't dare! You only dare to show off your power in Zi Dou's dream!"
"There's really no point in arguing. If I don't give it a try, how will I know that I can't kill you."
Ancient country trading array!
Ning Fan set up an ancient country trading array, seemingly wanting to buy something from the Tongtian Sect to kill the ant master.
"Oh? You, a junior from the Fantasy Realm, actually know about the ancient country's trading array! It's a pity, it's a pity. Although Tongtian Sect has one or two methods to kill me, those methods are all in the hands of its leader. Who is the leader of Tongtian Sect? He But my third senior brother, even though he betrayed the Hongjun Holy Sect in anger, the brother-sister relationship is still there. As soon as you said you wanted to buy a way to get rid of me, the people of Tongtian Sect must know that it was me you wanted to kill. After all, This life-saving method was only passed down to me by my master back then."
"...Why are your senior brothers everywhere?" Ning Fan was speechless.
He is connected to the ant master's mind. In his sea of consciousness, the ant master cannot tell lies at all, and all evil thoughts will be exposed.
After the ant owner said this, he really couldn't find the Tongtian Sect to buy a way to eliminate the ant owner.
He could imagine the consequences of doing so.
Ning Fan’s little theater in his head:
Leader of Tongtian Sect: "You thief! You actually want to kill my junior sister! From today on, all transactions of Tongtian Sect will no longer be open to you!"
"Ahem, cough, cough... Third senior brother would not speak in such a tone. He is a person who doesn't like nonsense. He probably doesn't even bother to scold you. He will directly disqualify you from trading with the ancient country..." The ant master could see Ning. Anyone with memories can of course see the little theater in Ning Fan's mind.
She originally thought that Ning Fan would be a colder person, but she didn't expect that deep down in his character, he would hide such a badass side.
"Staying with a master like that, it's hard not to smell like a slut..." Ning Fan thought of the old devil and his ever-joyful chrysanthemum face. Now that he has arrived in Beitian, once the alien races in Beitian are wiped out, he will take time to visit Siming Sect and use the channel of Siming Sect to teleport back to the Rain Realm to have a look.
The mother should have woken up by now. In this case, the father would not be so straight-faced.
The master should have revived the master's wife. Speaking of which, the master's wife is still Dugu's sister. It seems that her name is Xiaomei? Well, this is not a title that I can use. Should I call her Master’s wife, or sister... If I call her sister, Master will probably be so angry that he vomits blood, so it’s better not to be angry with him...
The Zhihe Team's cultivation should not have improved much. After all, they are too lazy and don't like to practice.
As for Qiu Ling, he might be busy planting flowers and writing poems, and he also hasn't improved much in cultivation.
As for Hong Yi, will she continue to be her bad Thunder Emperor, or will she ascend to the Ancient Demonic Abyss as she wished before?
If the moon is in the sky, he is still busy planting cucumbers...
There are so many women in Qimei City, do they ever fight when he is not at home? Probably...
There are also little minks, and big heads, and...
Ding ding ding!
Suddenly, a rapid sound came from the ancient country's trading array. This was the first time Ning Fan encountered such a situation.
Although he had set up the ancient country's trading array, he was worried that the ant master's affairs would be exposed, so he did not start the transaction. He didn't know where the sound came from.
"Stupid, this is someone who has had private transactions with you and is looking for you. As long as you have a private transaction once, the ancient country's trading array will record each other's realms. It will be much more convenient to trade in the future without having to go through the Tongtian Sect. I've read this part of your memory. The other person seems to be a saint from the small mountain world. Ning Xiaothief, Ning Xiaothief, look at the wicked things you did! Didn't you sell a lot of problematic gloomy wood to others? Most of them I came to ask for an explanation." The ant owner said sarcastically.
What is a prophecy? This is it.
Ning Fan cast a finger spell towards the Ancient Kingdom Trading Formation. Just as he started the formation, he heard the angry voice of a woman coming from the other side of the formation.
"You are finally willing to show your face! Kill! Live! Fox!" Killing Fox is Ning Fan's Tongtian Sect code name.
Miss Ling opposite seemed to be quite angry. She almost yelled these words. Instead of calling fellow Taoist Ning Fan like before, she directly called her code name.
Can you not be angry? She happily bought a large amount of 800 million gloomy wood from Ning Fan, but the goods were all contaminated by the Taoist Nourishing Immortal Food, and they were all damaged! Second-rate! Taste! She wished she could peel off the bones of Ning Fan, an unscrupulous businessman!
"Miss Ling? I know why you are angry, but can you please let me explain..." Ning Fan said with a bitter smile. He did something wrong, and it is reasonable for the other party to be angry.
"Huh!" Miss Ling snorted, but she didn't speak. She was obviously waiting for Ning Fan's explanation.
"Before the transaction, I didn't know there was a problem with that batch of goods. In fact, I was also the victim. Afterwards, I went through a lot of trouble to separate the Tao-nurturing Immortal Food in my body."
"You really don't know? Didn't you deliberately use the Taoist Immortal Food to trick me?" Miss Ling's tone seemed to have softened a lot.
"Seriously. If the girl doesn't believe it, I can swear an oath of inner demons." Ning Fan didn't like swearing, but once he made an exception because it was his fault.
The harm of raising Dao Immortal Food was too great, and he didn't know if Miss Ling opposite him had suffered huge harm from it. If so, he would be willing to shoulder all the responsibilities and make enough compensation for Miss Ling.
No matter how much that makes up for!
Ning Fan can be ruthless and unscrupulous towards his enemies, but when it comes to ordinary people, Ning Fan has always had his own principles, and paranoid people have their own set of principles.
"I don't believe in oaths..."
"That being the case..."
"But I believe you."
"..." Ning Fan was about to think of some other ways to make Miss Ling believe in him, but as soon as the other party said this, he suppressed all his words.
"If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't have waited so long just to get an explanation. Sure enough, you are also a victim. In that case, I have a forbidden technique that can expel the immortal food that nourishes the Tao from the body. This is how it is spread Here it is, please pay attention to receive it..."
Bang!
Miss Ling's luck seems to be a bit bad. The jade slip on which she recorded the secret technique was not successfully traded, but was destroyed in the turbulence of time and space. This is also the risk of private transactions.
She had to send it again, and this time, the jade slip was successfully delivered to Ning Fan.
[Mountain and Sea Exorcism Technique]: Lose half of one's immortal life and half of one's cultivation level to forcibly expel any impurities from the body.
A very powerful secret technique, which is enough to expel the Tao-nourishing Immortal Food from the body in an instant, but the cost is also very high, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages compared with multiple soul-sealing techniques.
Ning Fan had already removed the Tao-nurturing Immortal Food from his body, so this technique was of no use to him.
But the other party's attitude and behavior made him tremble and move.
This woman didn't come here to get angry at him.
This woman came to save his life.
He has never met this woman, but she did this to him. Is this the way of this woman?
Although Ning Fan had never met this Miss Ling, he seemed to be able to see her, her sassy smile, and her neat and tidy acting style.
"Why do you believe I didn't lie to you?" Ning Fan sighed.
"There is no evidence to believe this kind of thing. Only the fourth step can escape from this world. I am in it, and my reincarnation is in the hands of others. I can't tell the truth from the false. I want to survive. , you must believe something. After all, this is a world that can only exist if you believe.”
"So you completely trust everyone?"
"Of course not. Trust depends on the person, and more importantly, the eye. I have a good impression of you, and my intuition tells me that you have no intention of harming me." Miss Ling replied.
"Intuition...but sometimes, intuition can be deceiving."
"If you trust your inner intuition and still get deceived, then it will be a disaster in your life. Even if you avoid it, you still have to escape. Hey! Fellow Taoist, are you trying to discuss Taoism in the ancient trading array? The operation of the ancient country's trading array consumes a lot of heavenly gold. In order to replant trees, I have been spending a lot of money recently. If there is nothing else, then I..."
"etc."
"Anything else?"
"Has the girl been harmed by those Taoist Immortal Foods?"
"I am fine, but the big chrysanthemum tree I planted was killed by your polluted wood gas..." Miss Ling said sadly.
"sorry."
"Forget it, you don't mean it. As for Dachun, I can just plant it again. Anyway, forty-two trees have been planted to death. Maybe the next one can survive..."
"By the way, why did the girl plant a tree, and why did she plant a big tree?"
"...You really want to chat with me in the trading array, right?" Miss Ling had a headache.
She has very few friends, so she rarely discusses things with others. She has a good eye for Ning Fan, so it would be a good decision to discuss things with Ning Fan once in a while.
But the problem is, she! without! money! Got it!
In Tongtian Sect, Dachun's spiritual seedlings were not cheap. She had already spent a lot of heavenly gold to repurchase the spiritual seedlings. She also spent a lot of gold and silver to repurchase unpolluted Yinchen wood from other realms. At this moment, she really didn't have much money left to chat with Ning Fan.
Ding ding ding!
Miss Ling was just about to find an excuse to send Ning Fan away when she suddenly heard a sound coming from the formation, and then something was teleported from the opposite side.
Miss Ling didn't look at it, but she was a little surprised when she saw it.
Ning Fan actually teleported five hundred and two days of Daojin!
The other party is clearly not even a saint, but he is so rich!
"Now, the girl has enough money to keep the trading array running." Ning Fan's laughter came from across the array.
Ning Fan is such a person. If someone respects someone for a foot, he will pay him back a foot. The other party cared about him first, so he reciprocated it. In addition to the mistakes he had made before, it was not surprising that he gave the other party five hundred gold at a time as compensation.
"I can't take your money for nothing?" Miss Ling frowned. She didn't like taking money from strange men, as it would make her feel bad.
"The money is not malicious, it is just to make amends. If the girl does not accept it, Ning will not be able to feel at ease."
"...You seem to have accidentally let out your last name. Private transactions in the ancient country's trading array do not allow both parties to reveal their true identities. This is against the rules." Miss Ling said speechlessly.
"So what if it doesn't follow the rules? Those are the rules of Tongtian Sect, not yours or mine. Let's get to know each other again. My name is Ning Fan. What's yours?"
"..." Miss Ling had a headache.
Why did she feel like she was being stalked by someone?
"Sorry, I can't tell you my name." Miss Ling finally apologized.
"Really..." Ning Fan smiled bitterly and shook his head. Sure enough, the other party still didn't want to get acquainted with him.
"It's not that I don't trust you, it's for other reasons. In addition to being the master of the Xiaoshan Realm, I also have a secret identity. I am one of the mountain patrol envoys of the Mountain and Sea Realm. The name of the mountain patrol envoy cannot be told to others. There is a saying fairy to supervise. If If I violate this law, Li Di Yiyan Sect, which supervises this law, will punish me by burning..." Miss Ling explained.
She could obviously pretend not to trust Ning Fan and end the chat, but she still explained, as if she was worried that Ning Fan would shut down the trading array.
Sure enough, she is actually lonely inside and longs to communicate with others.
"Then I'd better call you Miss Ling from now on."
"In the future? Do you still plan to chat with me often in the future?" Miss Ling was surprised.
"If you don't want to, then give up."
"It's not that I don't want to. Anyway, apart from occasionally patrolling the mountains and planting trees every day, I don't have anything else to do."
"Speaking of which, the girl has mentioned planting trees several times. Is this your hobby? I have only seen girls who like to plant flowers, but unexpectedly there are other girls who like to plant trees."
"No, planting trees is not my hobby. It has nothing to do with preference, but something that must be done. There are many things that must be done in everyone's life. For example, I plant a big chun tree in this life. , is all the expectations.”
"What's the reason?"
"I don't know the reason. I just feel that just like I am waiting for the big chun to sprout, it may be waiting for me, waiting for me to plant it alive, and waiting for me to meet him."
"Quite an interesting reason."
"Is it interesting? Other mountain patrols say I am a boring person." Miss Ling laughed at herself.
"Speaking of which, I have been troubled by something recently. There are obviously people around me who I can talk to, but in order to prevent them from worrying, I still can't talk to them."
"Oh? Then how about you tell me, maybe I can help you." Miss Ling asked curiously.
"I saw my future, probably my future. He is terrifyingly strong. I even think he is stronger than some fourth steps..."
"...You are the most self-proclaimed person I have ever seen. Are you trying to tell me that you are worried that you will be so strong that you have no friends in the future? You have searched the three worlds, only for one defeat but failed, and you want a suitable opponent? A master from the three realms is not even worthy of fighting with you?" Miss Ling was speechless for a while.
“…”
“…”
"I'm not kidding."
"...Okay, I believe it. Your future will be very strong, so strong that it defies the heavens. One thought will make you a saint, one thought will open the heavens, one thought will bring thousands of rivers and mountains, one thought will destroy chickens and dogs..."
“…”
“…”
“…it seemed like my future would be to lose everything and then keep looking and never find it.”
"Are you serious?" Miss Ling's tone became more serious.
"...I was a little confused before, but in the end, the confusion was swept away by me. My Taoist heart will not be destroyed by any setbacks, and no one can make me bow my head, let alone take it all away from me. But for some reason, I But there is a sadness in my heart that cannot be erased. I have tried, but ordinary methods cannot make the sadness go away..."
"Then try an unusual method."
"what way."
"Hmm..." Miss Ling seemed to clear her throat, "This is my first time reciting sutras in front of others, so you are not allowed to laugh."
Chanting sutras?
Ning Fan was wondering, and then he heard the sound of chanting sutras, as quiet as a mosquito, coming from the opposite side of the formation.
No, not chanting, but humming softly.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, walking in the deep Prajnaparamita for a long time, saw that the five aggregates are all empty, and survived all the hardships.
Relics, color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color; color is emptiness, emptiness is color. Want to know that line, same is the case.
Relics are the empty appearance of all dharmas. It is neither born nor destroyed, neither dirty nor pure, neither increasing nor decreasing. That is why it is colorless in the air, no thoughts, no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind, no color, sound, fragrance, or law. There is no realm of vision or even unconsciousness, no ignorance and no end of ignorance. There will be no old age and death, no end of old age and death, no accumulation of suffering and destruction of the path, no wisdom and no gain.
Because there is nothing to gain, Bodhisattva. According to Prajna Paramita, the mind has no worries. There are no obstacles, there is no fear, and we are far away from upside-down dreams, and we will reach nirvana.
The Buddhas of the three generations, according to Prajnaparamita, achieved Anuttarasamyaksambodhi.
Therefore, we know that Prajna Paramita is a great divine mantra, a great enlightenment mantra, a supreme mantra, and an infinite mantra that can eliminate all suffering and is true and true.
So Prajna Paramita mantra, that is, the mantra says: uncover the meaning, uncover the meaning, Polo monk reveals the meaning, Bodhi Sava Maha.
"..." Ning Fan was confused.
The other party was actually singing Buddhist scriptures to him!
He does not believe in Buddhism. It should be said that it is impossible for any ancient demon to believe in Buddhism.
Therefore, he does not like Buddhist scriptures, which is contrary to his Tao.
But Miss Ling's singing voice was so beautiful that he couldn't help but want to listen to it several times.
No, it’s not simply good to listen to, but a desire from the depths of the soul to listen to it one more time! Want to hear it again! Otherwise, after tomorrow, you may never hear it again...
"Does it sound good..." After singing the song, Miss Ling asked nervously, as if she was very concerned about the evaluation of Ningda's audience.
"That sounds good. Do you believe in Buddhism?"
"I don't believe it." Miss Ling said simply.
"Then you still sing Buddhist scriptures?" Ning Fan was speechless.
"If you don't believe it, can't you sing? It doesn't matter if it sounds good or if it has an effect. If you look at your Taoist heart, is it still sad?"
"Huh? Is there really no sadness anymore? I have heard this Buddhist Heart Sutra before, but it doesn't seem to have such a magical effect." Ning Fan was surprised.
"That's right, regardless of who is singing, if you ask a third-step saint to sing for you, it will be extremely effective; if you go to an old nun in a mortal temple to sing for you, it will be like ten thousand It won't work even if you try it all over again." Miss Ling said proudly.
"Thank you."
"Well, it's nice to chat with you, but it's time to water my saplings. Let's talk another day. If you feel upset again in the future, just come to me. If you can't find it once, just look for it a few times. If I happen to be there, If I open the Ancient Country Trading Array, I will receive your contact and help you again."
…
After turning off the ancient trading array, Ning Fan no longer felt any discomfort in his Taoist heart. I have to say that Miss Ling's chanting was really effective.
He really wanted to listen to it a few more times, even if he didn't believe in Buddhism.
"It's amazing, little thief. You actually have the ability to coax the Sixth Epoch Saint to spend all his reincarnation power to sing a song for you. He's quite capable." The ant owner said sarcastically.
"The price is high?" Ning Fan frowned. If singing this sutra requires Miss Ling to pay a huge price, he will have a new layer of guilt.
"It's not big, but it's not easy either. People who don't believe in Buddhism tend to use the third step of Buddhism. Their vitality will be damaged a lot, and they will have to recuperate for a long time afterwards." The ant owner gloated.
"..." Ning Fan's face looked a little ugly.
He wanted to reopen the trading array immediately and send something to replenish his vitality to Miss Ling, but immediately he stopped this idea with a wry smile.
The other party is a saint, and what he has, she may not lack; and the other party is still busy watering the water, so it is not suitable for him to disturb her anymore.
"When we contact her next time, please send her some more valuable recovery elixirs..."
