Ji Liao had moved to many shops before, but all failed without success. From the shopkeeper's reaction, Ji Liao immediately understood that the shopkeeper definitely knew something.
With a faint smile, Ji Liao spoke softly, "I'm new here and I'm not familiar with Youyuan City. It's difficult to get some information. If the shopkeeper can help me, I'll be grateful and I'll repay you."
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, but..." the shopkeeper said here, his voice paused again, he stretched out his pale hand and rubbed it twice again, as if he didn't let the eagle see the rabbit.
Ji Liao turned his backhand, and two shining immortal stones appeared in his hand.
"Oh, the Immortal Essence Stone, it's not the Evil Stone!" The boy on the side stared at Ji Liao and exclaimed when he saw Ji Liao taking out two Immortal Essence Stones.
The shopkeeper's eyes also lit up, "Hey...this...look, how embarrassing is this."
After saying that, I wanted to reach out and take it.
"Don't worry, shopkeeper!" Ji Liao smiled and retracted his hand, just in time to avoid the shopkeeper's outstretched hand.
The shopkeeper's hand was empty, and then he realized that he had lost his temper. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Let the guest laugh."
"This is all my belongings. I want to buy some information with it. If the shopkeeper thinks it is a good deal, then he can trade with me. However, let's talk about it first. I must get the exact information before I can give this to you." Ji Liao smiled.
"Don't worry, sir, I will never take on the porcelain work without that diamond." After saying that, the shopkeeper came a little closer to Ji Liao and said to Ji Liao mysteriously, "Some time ago, a woman came to Youyuan City. This woman seemed to have escaped from the Nine Netherworld Sea. It is said that she was in danger in the Nine Netherworld Sea. Several of her companions were trapped there. But I heard that the thing that killed several of her companions was the transformed spirit. The evil sea monster of the period."
"Oh? Did you just hear it? Do you have any definite information?" Ji Liao's eyes lit up and he asked.
"This... this hasn't happened yet. You said that this spiritual beast is of great importance, so you can't make it casual." The shopkeeper hesitated, and then added, "I also accidentally interacted with a person a few days ago. My friends were chatting and I just listened to it."
Ji Liao's face became slightly solemn, and his voice became a little more serious, "Shopkeeper, this news is a bit too far-fetched. Could it be that the shopkeeper thinks I am that stupid fool and made up a story to deceive you? "
Seeing Ji Liao's displeased expression, the shopkeeper smiled and said, "Don't worry, guest, I am sincerely selling this news to you. If you can trust me, my store will not be open today. I specially I'm going to run an errand for you to find out about this matter. If it's true, your two Immortal Essence Stones will be my reward. If not, then I'll just give you some hard-earned money. You see, sir. Well, you won’t lose anything.”
Ji Liao looked a little better after hearing what the shopkeeper said, "If the shopkeeper is really sure, I will naturally be willing to do this."
"That's great, then it's settled like this?" the shopkeeper asked tentatively.
This fairy bone is hard to find, and information about the fairy bone is equally hard to find. Many people have traveled here and there for hundreds of years to find a fairy bone, but they still come up empty-handed, and many more died in the process.
Thinking of this, Ji Liao nodded slightly and said, "I will wait for you at Huishui Inn for five days. If you don't come after five days, I won't wait any longer."
"It won't take five days. At this time tomorrow, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer." The shopkeeper said, patting his chest.
"Okay, then I'll wait for your news." Ji Liao said and walked out of the hall.
The shopkeeper and the boy sent Ji Liao out of the shop together, and at this moment, a series of crisp and clear sounds of "dong-dong-dong" were heard from one end of the street.
Ji Liao and the others paused in their steps and looked where the sound came from.
But at this moment, the pedestrians on the street retreated to both sides, leaving a passage enough for several people to walk side by side on the narrow street.
Not long after, I saw a row of monks wearing gray robes walking slowly among the crowd.
These monks wore bamboo hats on their heads and long strings of green wood rosary beads hanging around their necks. They clasped their hands and hid their brows in the bamboo hats. They kept reciting scriptures in their mouths, mixed with the series of sounds of knocking wooden fish. Together, word spread.
The shopkeeper glanced at the row of monks, and then said, "Hey, it's actually the day when the Hualien Pure Land teaches the Dharma."
"Hualien Pure Land?" Ji Liao asked suspiciously.
"It seems that this is really the first time for our guest to come to our Soul Society." The shopkeeper chuckled, paused and explained to Ji Liao, "I think the Buddhist guest should know that this Hualian Pure Land is where Buddhism is in the Corpse Society. One of the branch religions established in the soul world is headed by Aye Bodhisattva, and these monks were sent by Aye Bodhisattva to spread his Buddhist teachings."
"Do these monks come here every day?"
"No way, the Hualian Pure Land is far away from our Youyuan City. These monks have a fixed route to teach the Dharma. Starting from the Hualian Pure Land, when they encounter a village or city, they stop to teach the Dharma for a while, and then continue to the next place. , the cycle goes on and on, coming to our Youyuan City once every thirty years." said the shopkeeper.
"Ha, these monks are interesting enough." Ji Liao smiled lightly.
The shopkeeper folded his hands in front of his chest and sighed, "Yes, these people are really interesting. They don't care whether anyone listens to the Dharma. When they reach the open space of the city, they start talking endlessly, especially People who teach the Dharma always use magic power when teaching the Dharma, and the sound is really lingering and disturbing people's dreams."
"Then no one cares about Youyuan City?" Ji Liao asked suspiciously.
"Control? Who dares to take care of it! People from the Heavenly Palace have to stay away when they see them. We are a small city of resentment. Who dares to provoke them."
"I see."
While the two of them were talking, the group of monks had already arrived near them.
Ji Liao was very close to the group of traveling monks, and he could hear the sound of these people reciting sutras as if they were chanting.
Closing his eyes, Ji Liao sank his mind and listened carefully to the scriptures recited by those people.
For a moment, everything in the world seemed to be silent. Ji Liao seemed to be in a chaotic world. He looked around and found that the world was filled with nothingness.
Suddenly, I heard a Sanskrit chant that sounded like it was in the nine heavens, resounding in the chaos, turned into a circle of sound waves, and spread like a wave. Wherever the wave passed, it immediately dyed the emptiness of the chaos with a touch of golden light. It didn't take long for the chaos in Ji Liao's eyes to be completely covered up.
Then, in a golden light, the earth emerged, the mountains and rivers rose, and the big golden wheel shone in the sky. It was as if the whole world was born in front of Ji Liao's eyes. As a bystander, he had the feeling of "seeing all the prosperous things in the world, never to be there again" "Worldly" feeling.
Ji Liao, who had closed his eyes, also experienced a slight change at the same time, but saw a faint golden light flowing between his eyebrows, and a faint peaceful aura exuding from his body.
The monk walking at the front seemed to sense this fluctuation. He paused slightly and glanced at Ji Liao. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, said something to the monk behind him, and then continued to lead a group of people. The ranking monks continued towards the inner city of Youyuan City.
The sound gradually died down, and the group of monks disappeared. As soon as the golden light between Ji Liao's brows disappeared, he immediately opened his eyes.
Ji Liao originally wanted to try to understand the scriptures spoken by these monks, but he didn't expect that he would fall into it so deeply after just a few attempts. He asked himself that his mind was still firm, and if he was like this, then let alone others, because This shows the power of this group of monks chanting sutras from their mouths.
"Amitabha, this donor has a lot of wisdom. Can you come to my Buddha's dojo and listen to my Buddha's teachings?" Just as Ji Liao opened his eyes, a voice immediately reached his ears.
