When one person attains enlightenment, the world is horrified. This is probably the most appropriate use in the human world at this time.
But the most obvious thing is that most of the immortals are no longer as high-spirited as they were when they ascended to immortality. Some people don't care about it because they have no intention of making progress, while some people are on pins and needles and don't seem to have the confidence to survive. Survive all good tribulations.
But there are some people who are still energetic and excited about the new Immortal Tribulation, and seem to regard this kind of thing as a challenge to themselves.
“Ten thousand good deeds are nothing, and even one hundred and five thousand good deeds are nothing.”
Bixia Yuanjun and Kaitian Hongsheng Emperor were the most relaxed about this. They had guarded Mount Tai for many years, detaining evil spirits in the world, and sent many fox fairies to become city emperors to do good in the land. Especially the land of Mount Tai was prosperous every year. Yuan Jun often appears, and his good deeds have accumulated to more than one hundred and five thousand.
Although the good deeds of Kaitian Hongsheng Emperor of Changbai Mountain cannot be compared with those of Mount Tai, and there are many evil deeds among them, he has many immortals under his command, and he drives the immortals under his command to do good deeds everywhere. At the end, he chants the name of Kaitian Saint Emperor, and as long as When things go right, good deeds will come.
This calamity is terrible. The terrible thing is that for those who go their own way and whose monks are mixed, it is a fatal calamity that is difficult to survive, but for immortals like them who pay attention to good deeds, it is not a big deal at all.
It's just a little more troublesome than the Thirteen Hundred Goods in the past.
And this kind of person...
It is the cultivators of Nanhai.
King Lei's brows were deeply furrowed, and the other two Dharma Immortals who had caught up with him to become immortals also had their brows furrowed and could not open their eyes for a long time.
There are many good and bad teachings in the Dharma, and not all the things they do are good deeds. Being able to dominate the South China Sea, split Guangzhou into a country, and even get involved with Western monks. These things, these territories, and these developments cannot be obtained by doing good deeds.
"I think this great catastrophe of all good is aimed at us! In the world, there is good and evil. Among all good, if there is one evil, all the previous efforts will be wasted. How can there be such a saying?"
King Lei looked at the other two immortals, but at this time, the Buddha ghost said quietly:
"Don't tell me, this is really ancient."
"It is said that during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, when there was no final conclusion on the Demon Test on the Golden Elixir Avenue at the beginning, there was a test method of ten thousand good and one evil for a while, but that only existed in the classic legends of the Lingbao Sect, and I am not one of them either. It’s hard to verify the people of that era.”
King Lei laughed and said, "That shows that the ancients were not stupid. Ten thousand good deeds will be ruined by one evil deed. You need to do another hundred and fifty thousand good deeds. If you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss. If there is one evil act among the fifteen thousand good deeds, , wouldn’t it be necessary to do another hundred and five thousand good deeds?
"With this cycle, the day of becoming an immortal and progressing is far away, so who is still practicing? Everyone is lazy and has no ambition to make progress."
"After all, the Lingbao Sect is the leader of Taoism and one of the Three Mountains. This wisdom is still there. However, according to the master's statement, doesn't it mean that the 'Devil King' who used this method to test the world was again Someone was released?"
The Buddha and the ghost chuckled: "Then it may not necessarily be released."
"I'm afraid, this devil is on his way to the South China Sea."
When King Lei heard this, he thought for a moment and his expression changed drastically.
........
Fairy Donghua also watched all this, and she lamented that Ji Xiang actually practiced the Yu Qingyin Book to the sixteenth lesson. Since he was a child, the demon has been ranked as the devil, unable to practice in the world, and even the immortal who should not have been born at this moment. It has had an immeasurable impact on this world.
But when she was taking the magic test just now, she actually felt that there was a faint demonic energy rising from her body. She thought for a moment and thought that her soul had been sucked into Ji Xiang's body in the past and was contaminated by the demonic energy of the Yuqing Hidden Book. She might have opened up a path for herself as a demon king. As long as she studied, she might one day be among them.
But currently, there is no such idea.
"receive!"
She stretched out her hand and the True Spirit Position and Karma Map was automatically wrapped up. When Ji Xiang exited from the blood sky, Fairy Donghua pointed at her, and a spiritual light flew out on its own and landed in front of Ji Xiang.
Half of the control of the true spirit position map was transferred to her, and Ji Xiang also nodded to her: "Before going north, please fairy, please go south with me."
He looked at the True Spirit Position and Karma Diagram in his hand and thought, next time he meets a monk from Biyou Palace, if the other party takes out the Qingping Sword, he will throw out the True Spirit Position and Karma Map. I wonder if Lingbao Tianzun can capture it in another life. Things....
"Don't bother me. Since I have agreed to become a national immortal, I won't feel comfortable if chaos breaks out in the south."
Fairy Donghua thought that even if she changed her mind in the end, with the matter of pacifying the South China Sea, there would always be a way out for the current dynasty. Building more good relationships is the way to live in the world. I will help you today and you will help me tomorrow. Just like this time, if he hadn't helped Ji Xiang, he would never have seen the light of day again.
"You...who are you!"
The two immortals turned their heads at the same time. Outside the Great Yuanbao Hall, the monks who had not dared to approach because of the celestial vibrations and the immortal's tribulation, all braved up to come after the bloody sky dispersed. Ji Xiang appeared. Of course they knew each other. Yes, but before he came forward to congratulate, he saw Fairy Donghua, and his expression suddenly trembled.
What surprised me was how the other party entered the world. What shocked me was the aura on his body. He was obviously an immortal too!
"Ah, a descendant of Shangqing."
Fairy Donghua was not stingy when she saw the leader of the Qingyi sect. She was sure that the person in front of her was indeed a monk from the Shangqing sect, so she drew a talisman in the sky, and a thunder talisman flew out from her fingertips, and suddenly turned into a sutra scroll and fell on Qingyi. In the hands of the lord.
The leader of the Tsing Yi Sect was still stunned in place. Fairy Donghua already said: "The Sutra of Nothingness left by Tao Hongjing, the ninth ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty, does not need to take pills. You only need to recite the sutra thousands of times every day to increase your cultivation and communicate with the heavens." The Holy Spirit will bless you until you reach immortality."
"Speaking of which, I also have a relationship with you, Shangqing. Now that we are in decline, we have a good relationship."
She gave away the Immortal Sutra casually, and Ji Xiang also gave out an Immortal Sutra casually, which made Fairy Donghua glance at it. Then he and Ji Xiang turned into two fairy rainbows and ascended to the sky and left. Only the leader of the Qingyi Sect was left holding two volumes of precious scriptures and stood there for a long time.
Ji Xiang did not pay attention to Donghua Fairy's unusual gaze, but the words on the inner scene of the divine card appeared in his eyes.
The innate marrow of heaven and earth has begun to take effect!
After entering the immortal realm, this source of great power from the fusion of all qi is completely refined, so it can exert three kinds of power:
[Heavenly Spirit Breathing: People who possess the innate marrow of heaven and earth, after entering the immortal level, can turn all the useless energy in the world into spiritual energy that can be practiced! 】
[Qi Yuan Chongshi: transporting and transforming the qi of heaven and earth, dividing their shapes and qualities, using the innate marrow of heaven and earth as a guide, and transporting qi to change the phenomena of the surrounding heavens. 】
[Jingxiang Xuanzhu: Gather all the qi of heaven and earth, combine the essence, and use the innate marrow of heaven and earth as a guide to use one qi to form the phenomena of the surrounding heavens. 】
A storm gradually surged in the sky, and the clouds began to fluctuate like ocean waves. Fairy Donghua couldn't help but look around, with wonder in her eyes:
"what have you done?"
Does the energy of heaven and earth move with you?
Penglai magic?
Fairy Donghua's mind came to mind as she listened to Ji Xiang's simple explanation:
"It's just about how to use breath. I'm not very proficient yet."
"The use of breath...you still have the skills of ancient Qi refiners."
"It's not the same...but I can also use the magic of the Immortal Family. There are a lot of good things from the Pre-Qin Dynasty. It's a pity that the roads are difficult to repair and the inheritance is cut off everywhere."
"After all, not everyone in the world has that kind of talent for cultivation."
Two fairy rainbows pierced the sky and approached the boundary of the South China Sea in almost an hour. The flying speed of the immortals is incomparable to that of ordinary monks. The scenery of mountains and rivers changes for hundreds of miles, but when approaching the South China Sea, a huge incense barrier appears across the sky.
"Hold the fairy light, collect your breath, and go to St. Paul's Academy."
Fairy Donghua was surprised by Ji Xiang's sudden request, but she actually laughed: "Where are the Western monks? It's interesting, why don't you go to the Dharma teaching first? I thought you were dragging me along and knocking on the door directly. Let’s go.”
"How could you be so rude? I have already surrendered to you. To tear my face apart is to go against all the people. It may not be difficult for me to wipe out the Nanhai Dharma. But at that time, people's hearts would be hard to accept. I couldn't. Let the people of Guangzhou regard us as enemies."
Ji Xiang smiled calmly: "The teachings are not troublesome."
“Christ is the trouble.”
Fairy Donghua's beautiful eyebrows trembled slightly: "What kind of Western people are so formidable? You don't even dare to knock on the door directly?"
"Be careful with your sailing ship. No one understands Christ better than me. Besides, there is Heaven's heart behind this method."
Ji Xiang did have some concerns. The original focus of the trip to the South China Sea was Christ. However, in the previous incident of becoming an immortal, Christ was actually able to lead people across the world. He really had two tricks.
Coupled with the magical power of miracles, he can turn the non-existent into something real, and turn the fake into real. He often uses miracles to turn the tables, and this miracle seems to be only required if he reaches the level of a missionary and has accumulated enough good deeds. It can be used, so it can really overturn if you are not careful.
Moreover.....
"If you go to the Dharma teaching first, they will give you a good meal and treat you well, and they will send you off later, so you won't get much information. Although there are people in the South China Sea who have ascended to immortality, and there is even a thing called a Buddha and a ghost, but I I guess he doesn’t dare to call anyone randomly, after all, I have a lot of help here.”
As Ji Xiang spoke, the swastika between his eyebrows seemed to flicker.
"It will be different when I go to St. Paul's Academy. Originally, my goal is to be a Christian, but I am looking forward to the growth of my demonic path. This is called learning from the foreigners and developing skills to control the foreigners."
Fairy Donghua seemed to understand what Ji Xiang was going to do, and she couldn't help but reveal a weird smile.
The two fairy rainbows disappeared in an instant, and the two of them changed and landed in a busy city somewhere without anyone noticing, turning into two ordinary people.
As soon as he landed in the busy city, Ji Xiang saw a missionary wearing Western clothes, talking to some well-dressed people, and gradually walked towards a certain building.
"Selling children?" Fairy Donghua transformed into an ordinary woman, while Ji Xiang transformed into an ordinary porter. The two of them looked unremarkable, and no one noticed them as they mingled in the city.
The two of them were near the building. They could hear the sounds inside and see the situation inside.
"Of course, if you have more children, you can make a lot of money by selling them to the church."
"Especially girls and good-looking little boys. However, boys are more expensive. After all, men can do things for the family when they grow up, and if a daughter loses money, she will naturally earn more."
"The Point Guard Is Here"
"The way to make money."
Ji Xiang explained calmly that these were the results of the investigation by the Jin Yiwei near the cannon foundry. This kind of selling of children was strictly prohibited and even punished with severe penalties in every dynasty, but it was still banned repeatedly because there were some Big profits.
Nowadays, coupled with the high price paid by Westerners, for ordinary people, it can ease the family economy, earn money, and improve living conditions, so the birth of children and the sale of children have become an industrial chain.
Among them, there is also the existence of the "baby black market", that is, some rogue organizations such as the "Hanakomon" that are good at abducting, selling, harvesting and cutting babies.
Speaking of which, this group of people even dared to abduct and sell the children of Ming Dynasty officials, but there was nothing they dared not do. In comparison, the White Lotus Sect were all truly pure and good people.
"Hey, it's not that I want to rob the White Lotus Sect. At least they still have good intentions when it comes to treating children. It's just a pity that these rogues like the Hanako Sect don't produce scriptures..."
"What are you talking about about the White Lotus Sect?" Fairy Donghua glanced at Ji Xiang, feeling extremely strange.
These people abduct young girls, and sell the young and ignorant boys to wealthy families with no children in other places. Such boys are the most profitable, and some can be sold for thousands of taels; the beautiful girls are sold to Beizhili, Brothels in Suzhou, Hangzhou and other places.
And some children who were really disobedient were beaten to death directly, some died of fright, and some died of illness. After they died, they dug pits, or two or three, or three or five, and buried them together, leaving the bones to rot in the soil. , or be dug out and eaten by wild dogs.
As for the appearance of these people on the outside, they often exist as some type of "charitable organization", making it difficult to tell whether they are black or white on the inside.
As for the composition of more idle "human traffickers", it's really possible for anyone to be a member of any of the three religions. Some people even try to seize the family property of the foster carer. Of course they encourage you to have a child. If you don't give birth, where will their money come from?
The Second Immortal could clearly hear that what those few people were discussing was about the price of the child, and it was even mentioned that some good seedlings needed to be handed over to the Dharma, but the Western missionary did not approve of it, and they also Want those good seedlings and be willing to charge a higher price.
As for what to do.
They were either converted into Christian monks or sold to some big shots at home and abroad. As for the low-quality seedlings, these children were left to do the heavy labor in the courtyard, such as washing clothes, growing vegetables, raising pigs, and taking care of babies.
In short, things like population are sold everywhere.
St. Paul's College is nothing more than an "export place" for these people to sell.
However, Christianity has just entered Middle-earth and has not been established for a long time, so it is not too high-profile to "wholesale" these children. Especially the massacre of missionaries in Japan has alarmed many missionaries, so they developed in places such as the South China Sea that were difficult for the court to control.
"How will you handle this matter?"
Fairy Donghua suddenly asked this question, also looking at the current situation of this dynasty. In the Qin Dynasty, it was a direct death penalty. In the Han Dynasty, it was tattooed and sent to hard labor. The whole family of sellers and buyers sat together. In serious cases, you were cut into pieces, that is, your limbs were cut off first, then beheaded, and then the bones were extracted. Finally, the body was abandoned and the body was not allowed to be collected. .
Ji Xiang responded: "There are some subdivisions in the Ming Dynasty Law."
"The person who plunders and sells people has not yet done anything, but has a hundred sticks and is paraded in the streets for one month, and the descendants of the generations will be exiled for three thousand miles; if they are sold to others as wives and concubines, and the rods are bought and sold, they will be imprisoned for a hundred and three years; those who gather and cut the fruits will be in Lingchi, and the descendants of the generations will be exiled for two years. Thousands, the house will be ransacked, and all the property will be paid to the deceased’s family.”
Fairy Donghua shook her head.
"It's not as good as pre-Qin, it's not as good as pre-Qin."
In her opinion, although the laws of the Qin Dynasty were violent, they were better than anger. It was too troublesome to confiscate the houses, torture with sticks, exile, etc. They were all chopped down and killed on the spot.
Ji Xiang looked inside and suddenly blew out two breaths. One breath instantly transformed him into an honest porter, and the other breath transformed him into a three-corpse little god, holding the Vulcan flag and escaping into the chamber of commerce.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Xiang transformed into a beautiful boy with red lips and white teeth, while Fairy Donghua frowned and transformed into an older girl.
Ji Xiang said to the incarnation he blew:
"Come on, take us in, we have to sell it for a good price."
