boom!
There was another sound, and the little fat man with red spots on his face who had eaten the most suddenly changed. His muzzle was tilted forward, his ears were like fans, and thick black burrs burst out through his clothes!
Bang bang bang!
After several consecutive sounds, the children huddled in the corner all transformed into bones. The two older children holding long knives gritted their teeth and managed to hold on for a while before suddenly appearing like monsters.
Some have curved horns on their heads, some are covered in scales, and some have plump wings...
All of a sudden, there were many demon statues, and at first glance, they all looked ferocious.
Lin Ji took a glance and saw that the monsters were: harrier, sheep, pig, stork, armadillo, mole, and big-eared ape.
"Although you are a demon, you have a kind heart." Lin Ji said with approval, "In this troubled world, it is rare to not take the power of demons for wrongdoing! What's more, you have the virtue of compassion. It is even more valuable! This trip has been Stop, it's enough to laugh at the shame of the world, how can I bear to harm it! Before the medicine wears off, practice as soon as possible! This pill is a reward for your kindness, and you also cherish the past, and you will live up to the chance to meet Hu Nu! "
"Ah?" The black-haired red-spotted pig standing by the door asked in a startled voice, "You, do you recognize my aunt?"
Lin Ji nodded slightly and said: "In the early years, she repaid her kindness by causing an accident on her way to Qingyang. Her teacher, Xing Chi, was very concerned about me. This can be regarded as an unfinished cause and effect!"
Once Lin Ji said that the swan girl was coming and going, the children no longer hesitated. At this time, the power of the medicine dissipated and they could no longer withstand it. Everyone closed their eyes and began to practice with peace of mind.
Lin Ji also meditated and adjusted his breath, causing the spiritual energy in his body to slowly circulate for several days.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the sky outside the door was already pitch black.
Outside the stove, the seven little monsters have not yet woken up. As he breathed in and out, streaks of milky white smoke passed through his mouth and nose, and a spiritual light floated and swayed slightly, as if someone was about to break through.
boom!
There was a loud explosion, and the big-eared ape manifested by the eldest child suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils shining with a myriad of lights.
He turned to look at his companions who were still refining and practicing, then he knelt down on his knees facing Lin Ji, kowtowed respectfully and thanked: "Yuan A, thank you so much for the immortal gift of medicine!"
"Get up." Lin Ji waved his hand and said, "Tell me, why are you here?"
"Go back to Shangxian." The big-eared ape replied with a slightly cautious hand, "I originally lived with my parents in the back mountains of Qingcheng. Suddenly one day, and I don't know what happened, black smoke suddenly rose from the main peak, billowing straight up. Soaring into the sky. Even the master of Qingcheng Mountain and several great powers could not suppress it. The spiritual energy contained in the hundred thousand mountains seemed to be sucked dry by someone. Even the grass and trees withered instantly, and the streams and rivers immediately stopped flowing. ! What’s even more terrifying is that there seems to be some terrible monster rushing out from under the mountain.”
"In desperation, our big-eared ape clan had no choice but to leave Qingcheng Mountain. But because our clan's heart can be used to guide elixirs, we were chased and killed by countless monks along the way. When we came near here, the dead were scattered and scattered. My mother and I were left alone. My mother was seriously injured and lying in a broken house. When I came back from looking for food, I saw two human monks trapping her in a big net..."
The big-eared ape said, tears rolling in his eye sockets, but he still held back and never fell.
"I was about to rush forward to fight for my life, but someone covered my mouth and grabbed me tightly. When I turned around, I saw that it was a monk and nun with a swan head. Later, she brought me here."
The big-eared ape pointed at several other little demons and said: "They suffered the same fate as me. They all escaped from Qingcheng Mountain. The news that Qingcheng Mountain was broken and all the demons fled has spread all over the world, and many monks have come here one after another. Round up, we...we are all orphans of the demon clan."
"It was Aunt Hu who rescued us one after another at the risk of being caught too. She warned us that although the people who killed our parents were human monks, there are good and bad people, and most of them are Poor people. We must not hold grudges and massacre human races. What is the difference between that and those wolf-hearted monks? Good and evil are rewarded, and the cycle of cause and effect. She taught us to practice Buddhism and let us practice well in the temple. But there are people passing by. The victims of the disaster will share a bite of food, helping others in trouble will yield thousands of good results, saving one life is better than a seven-level pagoda..."
When Lin Ji heard this, his heart was filled with ups and downs.
In this turbulent world, people's hearts are not as old as they used to be. It's rare that Hu Nu still has such a big heart and magnanimity!
I saw countless monks along the way, all of them saying that Amitabha was compassionate, but it was two monsters who were truly dedicated to doing good and had no selfish thoughts at all!
One is a weasel from Leiguang Temple, and the other is a swan from Daliang Temple!
If Buddhism is really based on good and evil as its source, I am afraid that only these two demons can achieve righteousness!
The big-eared ape wiped away his tears and continued: "Since the Qingcheng incident, all the monsters have undergone some changes. Regardless of their age or their cultivation level, they can all take the form of humans, but once the night falls, they will appear. It shows its original appearance. Similarly, no matter how strong or weak the cultivation level is, it cannot be suppressed. So... so my aunt strictly ordered us not to step outside the temple. We are not allowed to stay here overnight. "
"In order to prevent people from breaking in by mistake, my aunt picked up some heads that were hung on the city wall by bandits and hung them on the big tree in front of the door. She also found an iron rope from somewhere, and the evil spirit exploded out of the sun. The third brother of the Harrier was locked tightly. It had been safe and sound for a long time, but... it was a little too miserable. However, I gradually got used to it. After all, it was a little bitter, but it was better than being beaten by someone. It’s much better to catch him and dig out his heart and lungs.”
After Lin Ji heard about the experiences of several demons, he couldn't help but sigh: "Humans are like ferocious butchers, demons are like fishes, they are good at torment, and their evil deeds are free! What kind of bullshit world is this!" Suppressing the anger in his chest, he whispered Asked: "What about your aunt? Where has she gone?"
"My aunt has been wandering around, saying she wants to do her best to save orphans and help the poor. She also built a shelter in Liangzhou City, where people are all human. We have never been out of the temple, but we have heard her talk about it before. It turns out that there is a great big shot living there, his name seems to be..." The big-eared ape thought hard for a moment while holding his huge ears as wide as cattail leaf fans, and suddenly shouted: "Yes, yes, yes! His name is Lin Tianguan! It's Lin Tianguan. The mansion!"
"Oh?" Lin Ji thought to himself: "Will this swan girl find a place to turn the old place of Lin Mansion in Liangzhou into a rescue center for disaster victims? Indeed, with my reputation at this time, neither the idle monks nor the rebels dare to break in The mansion is acting haphazardly.”
"But..." the big-eared ape said with some worry: "But my aunt hasn't been back for a long time! She usually travels between places, and she comes back every seven or eight days at most to bring some grain, but this time it's almost two It’s been thirty days. I don’t know what happened to my aunt. Our cultivation is weak and our feet are not good enough. When we go to and from Liangzhou, we dare not go out for fear of getting dark... Immortal, if you..."
The big-eared ape swallowed back half of what he said, probably because he felt it was not good to beg Lin Ji again.
Lin Ji glanced at the broken pot that was still fragrant and said: "My child, this half pot of elixirs is enough for you to practice for a few days. According to your aunt, don't wander around. I will go back to my house to see if it is When you see her, ask her to go back to the temple to report to you that she is safe."
As soon as the words fell, a breeze suddenly rose.
The big-eared ape was shocked to find that the "uncle" who looked like a young man in tattered clothes and white hair had disappeared long ago.
Suddenly I remembered what he had just said: "...Go back home?"
The big-eared ape looked out the door and couldn't help but be filled with shock: "Could it be that... this uncle is the legendary Lin Tianguan?!" (End of this chapter)
