In Xixing Temple, cicadas chirping long.

Today, a rare pilgrimage came to the temple.

"Bao Zhu."

The Zen Master Sanzang under the Bodhi Tree narrowed his eyes, looked at his opponent who was burning to death, and put down the chess piece in his hand.

"Mr. Liu, after crossing the river, there is no way back."

Liu Qingshui flicked the leaves falling from her long gown and smiled without raising her head.

"I am just a little pawn, and there is no way to go."

"Stop it, Ah Liu." Zen Master Sanzang said earnestly: "I draw the ground to make Zen. If necessary, in this Xixing Temple, I am not inferior to Buddha. Staying here will eventually ensure that you can survive this disaster."

Liu Qingshui also said sincerely: "Zen Master, do you think I still have a chance?"

The Zen Master Sanzang was about to answer, but Liu Qingshui shook his head with a wry smile, lifted up his long gown, revealing his upper body.

Looking at it intently, Liu Qingshui's torso skin had turned into wrinkles like a dead tree.

Liu Qingshui tilted his throat and took a breath, as if the words just now had consumed all his energy.

"The Zen master takes good care of me. I don't want to owe cause and effect. If you help me, I will return it to your little disciple when you go to Hanzhong."

Zen Master Sanzang picked up the teacup and put it down again.

"I don't need you, what else can I do?"

"I know."

"He is summoning you?"

"I owe him this life, so I have to go... Even if I don't go, I can't last long for this now."

The two were silent for a moment, and Zen Master Sanzang asked, as if he was trying to keep him, and said to himself, "Can you not go?"

Liu Qingshui's face looked solemn: "Zen Master, I'm brave enough to ask, is the 'glider chance' you mentioned really in the face of Master Budu?"

"yes."

Zen Master Sanzang drank all the tea soup in one mouthful, and said seriously: "Whether it is me, monkey smash, or you, or even this Middle-earth country, if there is a glimmer of hope, it will not be over."

"I understand."

Liu Qingshui stood up and said, "Accept his summons, I will act according to the opportunity when I arrive in Hanzhong. If I can create opportunities for him to not pass the wizard, I will die without regrets... Anyway, I have already died once."

"He has reached that level?"

"Only one step away."

Liu Qingshui turned his back to Zen Master Sanzang and whispered: "What is not bad is the rules and strength. As long as he integrates his previous life, or even farther than that, he is bad is the grade."

"So that national master, as a second-level Taoist sect, must go even if he doesn't want to go to Hanzhong."

"Yes, a cultivation system can only have three second grades. When he merges with his previous life, it is only a matter of time before he advances. But if he squeezes out of the grade, the consequences for that national master are even greater than being killed by the current dynasty in the temple... and the saint will force him to go."

Liu Qingshui left, and Zen Master Sanzang was still sitting under the Bodhi tree.

All the pasts appeared in his mind.

When she returned from the journey west, she first met the empress. At that time, she was not the empress, but just a small tea-serving talent. She was in her early twenties and was in full bloom. She served Taizong and had a good skill in making tea.

Speaking of which, sixty years have passed without realizing it.

later...

"Master, I'm back."

Looking at the figure of his little disciple, Zen Master Sanzang returned to his god and asked with a smile.

"This time I went to Ziwu Valley, I still gain something."

"I have gained some results. I have obtained several volumes of the formation essence of the old man Tianshu. The disciple is about to have an epiphany."

Chen Budu scratched his head. The heat of summer made him want to scoop a basin of well water on his head.

"But when the disciple came back, he saw that the garrison troops in Chang'an Prefecture had blocked the entrance of Ziwu Valley. Those soldiers seemed to be very anxious."

Zen Master Sanzang nodded. This kind of thing is probably because different factions in the court are competing for merit, which is normal.

With the height of the temple, only a little wave is needed, and when it reaches the distance, it will evolve into huge waves.

"Advisor, I seem to have told you the story of a fair man."

Chen Budu was stunned for a moment and replied casually: "I remember that the righteous man of heaven was cultivated by immortals five hundred years ago. A Taoist priest from the side of the world was lucky enough to establish the Taiping Road in just a few years, and even approached the First-Class Land Fairyland."

Zen Master Sanzang poured another cup of tea, thought about how to lay the groundwork so as not to scare his disciples, and then he talked carefully.

"Then you should also remember that your senior brother also broke through the lower realm of Tianmen five hundred years ago."

Chen Budu looked at the little stone monkey. Well, to be precise, it was the stone fetus of the Lingming stone monkey.

Although Chen Budu has always been curious about why a smart Murphy can pop out of a stone that looks like there is no sign of life, and a Monkey King Sun Wukong can pop out, how can the eldest brother jump out of it?

But the fact is that after years of continuous efforts by Zen Master Sanzang, no other obvious changes were found except that he noticed that a certain part of the stone monkey would leak.

"Five hundred years ago, Master meant that there was a connection between the elder brother descending to earth and the righteous people in heaven and justice?"

"have."

Zen Master Sanzang was still very cautious, fearing that the description of the enemy would be too strong and would scare the child.

It is not that the description is too powerful, or that the matter is said in its original form, which is unimaginable.

"The immortals in the sky have lost the anchorage of the incense on earth for nearly a thousand years. I don't know what they look like now. But five hundred years ago, your senior brother was almost driven crazy, so he fought for the risk of the indestructible body of the Vajra and passed through the lower realm of the Black Ridge Tianmen."

Without time to complain about the question of why the "Vajra Indestructible Body" is "destroyed", the following information made Chen Budu feel a little surprised.

"I have told you before that the most stable landing point in the immortal world passing through the Tianmen to the mortal world is Hanzhong Prefecture. In fact, the Qinling Mountains in the past were directly filled with the gaps between Guanzhong and Shu. The appearance of the Hanzhong Basin was because the ancient gods would step on the steps when they returned to the mortal world from the divine world, yes, that is, the current fairy world.

"So... did the Hanzhong Basin step out from the ancient gods one after another?"

"almost."

Zen Master Sanzang returned to the main topic: "The seal of the Heavenly Gate has the ability to repair automatically, but there will be a very short gap. After your senior brother broke through the Heavenly Gate, the immortals in the sky did not have many choices at that time. Just in time, the Taoist sect in the mortal world was suppressed to the limit by the Confucian sect, so the immortals chose the Taoist sect in the mortal world to establish a Taoist sect in the mortal world to gather incense, and even put a blessing land in his hand for him. This is the blessing land of peace."

Chen Budu looked at the relationship here.

The elder brother broke through the Tianmen. The immortals seemed to dare not or could not come down, but they supported the righteous man in the mortal world as puppets to establish forces to collect incense and launched the Huangtian Uprising.

The Huangtian Uprising led to the split of the Middle-earth people, and the Northern Witch Kingdom took the opportunity to move south, and the Southern and Northern Dynasties era arrived.

So the little stone monkey in front of me actually directly led to changes in the historical line?

He is worthy of being the eldest brother!

"The ancient beast 王王王 that Master mentioned last time will contain fairy energy in his body, which may be used to save the eldest brother. Does it mean..."

"The sacred dou was not from this era."

Zen Master Sanzang affirmed it.

"The sage was released by an immortal five hundred years ago. The sage brought the land of peace. After the failure of the Huangtian Uprising, the sage was sealed in order to preserve its strength and make a comeback. As long as there is still fairy energy in the sage, then the sage is still in the body. Now the sage is released by the Ghost Hall and the Qidou Rice Sect, not only because it is the guardian of the sage Blessing, but more importantly, the Qidou Rice Sect intends to release the sealed sage righteous people together."

"The righteous man is not dead?"

"Not dead."

Chen Budu felt that this matter seemed to be a little difficult...

Who is the righteous man of God? Five hundred years ago, he was a god on land.

What is the concept of land gods? Control the rules of the way of heaven, act on behalf of heaven, and fight head-on with ancient gods and immortals in the mortal world.

Although Chen Budu doesn’t know how strong his strength is so far, he has never been able to get three punches anyway...

But this does not mean that he thinks he can beat the fairy man on the land with half a step!

"So, if the Qidou Rice Sect did not release the righteous man, then as long as you defeat the ancient strange beast Sujiu and obtain the immortal energy from its body, you may resurrect the elder brother. If the righteous man is released..."

"If you really can't do it, just run away. Your senior brother was originally a stone, but now he is just a stone returning to dust and dust returning to stone returning to stone."

The white beard of Zen Master Sanzang shook and said.

"The palms and backs of hands are all flesh. I don't want you to get into a dead end in order to save your senior brother."

"Will the court send strong people from the three realms to the three realms?"

"The national master of the Taoist sect will be forced by the empress, but it is best not to count on him. The empress worships Buddhism as a means, and raising the real person of the feather-in-law mountain in Difei Mountain as a national master is also a means."

Difei Mountain is one of the nine heavenly-level immortal sects of the Middle-earth people and the largest immortal sect in Jiangnan Road. Its influence within the Taoist sect even surpasses that of the Zhenwu Sect in Xiangfan Dao.

The contemporary head of Zhao Zixia was ordered by the empress to be the national teacher and was divorced with the country. It is indescribable.

It was this unique favor that put Master Zhao on the fire.

If you don't go, I'm sorry to the empress. And when God's righteous man is resurrected, his rank will inevitably be squeezed out, and then political enemies will attack him.

If you go, you probably can't beat it.

Chen Budu thought silently, what other strong people he knew?

Oh yes, that ancient monster, the nine-tailed Heavenly Fox... is now the eight-tailed Heavenly Fox, and it should be in Hanzhong Mansion, but I don’t know why she couldn’t wait to come to this muddy water just after she came out of the seal.

According to Chen Budu’s speculation, it is probably the treasure in Taiping Blessings that can quickly recover their strength.

His goal is to defeat the ancient beast Sujiu, and the potential friendly forces he can win include the eight-tailed Tianhu and the national teacher Zhao Zixia, and there is a God-Person who may or may not have been resurrected.

"Senior Brother, wait for you to pop out of the stone, don't forget that the younger brother gave you the credit for running around like this."

Chen Budu looked at the little stone monkey and said.

The little stone monkey sprinkled a bubble of tea in response.

"Tu tuk!"

Outside Xixing Temple, a knock on the door sounded.
Chapter completed!
