"That dragon girl is actually a Bodhisattva?"
This time it was Pei Wende and Huiji's turn to look at each other.
Isn’t it a bit too ironic that a Bodhisattva who cared about the common people and made great wishes would eventually turn into a troubled evil spirit that poisoned Runzhou?
However, this can explain why the dragon girl built a Buddhist temple on Longyou Lake instead of a Taoist temple.
Because the dragon girl is not only a real dragon, a great demon, and a god.
At the same time, he is also a great Buddhist figure who firmly practices the way to save all sentient beings.
Compared with today's fake monks who recite the sutras incorrectly, this dragon girl is a true believer in Mahayana Buddhism.
"No wonder this temple has been abandoned for so many years, but it still has such a huge will power."
Unable to help but murmur, Hui Ji remembered the lingering power of incense and wish when she first came to Zexin Temple.
It was with the support of the incense and aspiration that Huiji was able to reunite the Buddha with scriptures, and then added a long chain seal to the original seal of Suolongjing.
"Willing power?"
Hearing Hui Ji's muttering, Pei Wende suddenly opened his palms as if he remembered something.
Immediately afterwards, a golden lotus appeared out of thin air in Pei Wende's palm, and an electric arc could be vaguely seen flashing in the lotus.
"Dragon Girl Bodhisattva is truly compassionate. Even if she dies, she will not forget to leave a glimmer of hope."
The person who spoke this time was neither Pei Wende, nor Hui Ji, nor Black and White Wuchang beside him.
Because as the words fell, Black and White Wuchang stood on both sides, and bowed their hands towards the still burning sacred incense with some respect.
The next second, another figure slowly walked out of the smoke,
The figure who came out this time was wearing an official hat and official robe, and each hand held a judge's pen and a book of life and death.
"I've seen the urging judge!" x2
It wasn't until Hei Bai Wuchang called out the identity of the person who came that Pei Wende realized that the other person was actually the great judge of the underworld.
Different from the ignorance at the beginning, Pei Wende now has a rough understanding of the composition of the underworld.
In addition to the familiar black and white impermanence and bull-headed and horse-faced figures, the Underworld Judge is also one of the Yin gods with divine responsibilities.
However, unlike the four major judges that were widely circulated in later generations, today there are only three major judge agencies under the Yin Tianzi sect, namely the Rewarding the Good Division, Punishing the Evil Division and Yin Law Division.
Among them, the Department of Rewarding Good and Punishing Department are headed by Wei Zheng and Zhong Kui respectively. They are responsible for determining the good and evil of ghosts during their lifetime and guiding them to either go to hell or reincarnation.
The great judge in charge of the Yin Law Department is called Cui Jue, and he is one of the oldest known judges.
According to the folklore of the Tang Dynasty, this being known as the "judge to urge death" may be even older than the Yin Tianzi of the underworld.
As for "Judge Lu" who became famous in later generations due to a series of stories from Liaozhai?
Pei Wende read through countless ancient books but could not find His existence.
In this regard, Pei Wende could only understand that the "Lu Jian" had not yet been born - just like the Eight Immortals he met earlier.
"I've seen the urging judge!" x2
Not daring to show any slightness, Pei Wende and Hui Ji also bowed their hands to Judge Lu very respectfully.
However, neither Pei Wende nor Hui Ji did too much flattery or fear.
After all, Pei Wende is willing to bow to Black and White Impermanence because he has come into contact with these two Yin gods and knows that their actions are worthy of his respect.
And now this Judge Lu suddenly appears?
Apart from various folklore, Pei Wende was not sure whether the other party was worthy of his bow.
You can say that Pei Wende and Huiji are rebellious, but without this arrogance, they would not be able to get to where they are today.
At the very least, Pei Wende has no habit of bowing to strangers.
"I have met the two venerables!"
I don't know if he could see the unruliness in the two people's hearts, but Judge Cui just returned the salute with a smile, and then continued talking.
"The essence in the hands of the Venerable is the 'legacy' of Dragon Girl Bodhisattva..."
"If your venerable master is willing, you can just put this essence into the Suolongjing, and then ask me to extradite it to the underworld. This incident will be perfectly resolved."
Frowning slightly, Pei Wende looked at Judge Cui who seemed to know something, but he felt a rare hesitation in his heart.
"Are you testing me?"
Thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Pei Wende, who narrowed his eyes, finally knew why he felt familiar with Judge Cui's words.
Because in the past, when solving evil incidents caused by "man-made disasters", Pei Wende also liked to use similar methods to test the attitudes of the parties involved.
If the person concerned is sincere and truly regrets, Pei Wende does not mind using more troublesome means to give the other party a chance to change his ways.
The coffin in the beauty's head incident...
Maple leaves in the Tengu incident...
Who was involved in the facial sore incident...
The old witch doctor in the Stone Maid incident...
Even the Zhu daughter and her son in the Mirage Incident...
Pei Wende will more or less give the other party a chance to reform, instead of completely using "killing" as a means to solve the problem.
Although most of the time, Pei Wende's behavior is always criticized by Xiaoqing as being soft-hearted, but this does not change his mind.
People can not escape from doing wrong.
As long as they didn't commit an irreversible crime, Pei Wende didn't mind letting them start over.
"Your Majesty's words are serious, Cui Yu just wants to confirm your Majesty's determination."
After giving Pei Wende a slightly surprised look, Judge Cui immediately smiled and shook his head.
"If Your Majesty does not want to suffer the pain of reincarnation in the future, Cui Yu can make the decision to reserve the position of the fourth great judge under Yin Tianzi's sect."
Although he failed to test Pei Wende's determination, Judge Cui was obviously very satisfied with his performance.
As the great judge in charge of life and death, being benevolent and impartial are necessary qualities, but a pair of eyes that can discern yin and yang are equally important.
At this point, Judge Cui even felt that Pei Wende might be more suitable for the position of "Great Judge" than himself.
"Thank you so much for Judge Cui's kindness. The young monk has no plans to think about what will happen after his death just yet."
In the regretful eyes of Black and White and Hui Ji, Pei Wende did not hesitate to reject this opportunity that normal people dream of.
"And the young monk does not intend to follow Judge Cui's approach and use this essence as a way to induce the resentment of Dragon Girl Bodhisattva."
Pei Wende, who spoke astonishingly again, turned his palm down and hid the golden lotus again.
"The affairs of the Yang world are settled in the Yang world, and the affairs of today are over now."
"This essence today is no longer as simple as the 'relics' left behind by Dragon Girl Bodhisattva..."
"In the eyes of the young monk, He is still a little life that has not yet formed."
"Even if something really has to be sacrificed, with so many people present, it won't be His turn."
