I wish you all a happy New Year, all the best, good luck, good health, good academic success, and wealth for those who work hard!—

The condition proposed by Master Gui was to be a Buddhist guardian for life. In Chu Huan's opinion, this was equivalent to becoming a Buddhist child. To put it more clearly, it was to become a monk.

Chu Huan never expected that Master Ghost would have such a difficult condition. He was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Master Ghost said slowly: "The female donor's scorpion poison is spread all over her body. According to common sense, she has long lost her life. However, the female donor's body has long been poisonous. I don't know who planted the poison in her body."

"Growing poison?" Chu Huan's expression changed slightly.

Zhuo Yanlun once said that if an ordinary person was infected with the White Tiger Scorpion poison, it would never last for such a long time. At that time, he thought it was because Mei Niang had practiced martial arts and her physique was different from that of ordinary people, so he survived.

At this time, when Master Ghost said this, Chu Huan realized that before Mei Niang was poisoned by a white tiger scorpion poison, she had already been poisoned in her body. It was precisely because of other poisons in her body that by accident, Mei Niang avoided the disaster.

Master Ghost stared at Chu Huan and said, "The White Tiger Scorpion Poison mixed with the previous body poisons, forming a new poison. I have now used the method of fire refining to suppress these two poisons. However, it is not a matter of a day or a night to completely eliminate these two poisons. Although the White Tiger Scorpion Poison will not attack immediately and will lurk for a few days, once it occurs, it will be more fierce than the tiger and wolf, and there is no medicine to relieve it. The poison that the female donor had before was more hidden, and the person who was interfered with could not even feel it. According to my calculations, the poison has been in his body for at least five years...!"

Chu Huan frowned.

"The female donor should have taken the antidote every year." Master Gui's voice was hoarse and sounded quite weak: "If this toxicity does not occur, it will be effective. Once it occurs, its power is not inferior to the White Tiger Scorpion Poison. The White Tiger Scorpion Poison enters the body and triggers the female donor's body poison. The two toxicities occur at the same time. The toxicity is so great that it is hard to imagine. It is precisely because these two toxicities are both tigers and wolfs that they suppress each other."

"So that's it." Chu Huan felt a little scared at this time. If it weren't for the severe poison in Mei Niang's body, the beautiful woman would have died at this time.

"When you come here today, the female donor's life is in danger. It is not caused by the White Tiger Scorpion Poison, but by the original body poison." Master Ghost obviously had an abnormal understanding of the poison. "The two poisons suppress each other in her body, but the poison of the White Tiger Scorpion Poison is ultimately slightly inferior and is eroded by the original body poison. Today's Fire Refining method can only keep the two poisons balanced again and not completely eliminated. If you want to detoxify, you must remove both poisons at the same time, and you cannot act too quickly. Otherwise, once you have a bias, the toxicity of any poison prevails, and the female donor will never survive."

"Master is in trouble!" Chu Huan said sincerely: "Master is very compassionate, please help me!"

The ghost master nodded slightly, "I have calculated the time. I can live for half a year. Before I die, both poisons will be eliminated."

Chu Huan was stunned. Master Ghost turned out to be able to live for half a year.

Just looking at Master Gui's weak appearance now, I think his leprosy has reached the late stage and it is indeed difficult to hold on for too long.

"I will do my best to make the female donor safe." Master Gui said calmly: "The children of Buddhists originally wanted to save all sentient beings and save people in danger. But in the case of Buddhists, I, as a child of Buddhists, cannot sit idly by, so I asked you to agree to me with a condition!"

Chu Huan smiled bitterly and said, "Master, let Zaixia escape into the monk?"

Master Gui did not answer directly, but said softly: "Since the day when the Buddha was born, he has suffered disasters. The Buddha has experienced 100,000 difficulties and has gone through hardships to save the world. However, Buddhism is the supreme wonderful method, where Buddhism lies, and the Dharma protector will never stop. Ghosts and monsters invade the Dharma and block the wonderful method, causing sentient beings to fall into the six realms of reincarnation. In Buddhism, one mind is devoted to the Buddha and the Dharma protector, and the responsibility of protecting the Dharma is absolutely unshirkable!"

Chu Huan nodded helplessly, but his heart became solemn. Master Gui meant that he wanted to escape into a monk as a monk. Should he really want to escape into a monk?

"Outside evil is easy to block, but inner demons cannot be suppressed." Master Ghost's red eyes were grim: "I want you to promise the Dharma protector, so that you can calm the Dharma protector!"

"Inner Demon?" Chu Huan was a little puzzled.

Master Gui said: "A hundred birds are evil, and all beasts are evil. But Buddhist disciples may not all respect Buddha with all their hearts."

Chu Huan understood and asked, "Master, are there disdain among the disciples of Buddhism?"

"The human path is among the six realms, and it is the most suitable place for practicing Buddhism." Master Gui said: "However, the human path is full of seven emotions and six desires. The seven emotions and six desires are the greatest temptation of the human path, and it is also the biggest trap for the human heart to fall into the demon. Buddhists grew up in the human path, and their hearts of respecting Buddha are not sunken. If the Tao is not practiced enough, they will be tempted by the seven emotions and six desires and fall into the demon path."

Chu Huan asked, "Have you seen such a person?"

Master Gui did not answer, but continued: "Buddhism is to lead sentient beings to transcend the six realms of reincarnation. However, once you enter the demonic path, you will break the Dharma and enter the six realms, causing trouble to sentient beings. Eight hundred great Bodhisattvas transform into the six realms, liberate sentient beings, and resist external evils. However, my Buddhist children need to uphold the Buddha's practice, calm the inner demons, and protect the Dharma!"

Chu Huan is still a little confused and asked again: "Master, then what should I do?"

Master Ghost pondered for a moment and finally asked: "Can you promise me that you will last your life, but if a Buddhist disciple causes harm to the world, you can stand up and eliminate demons and protect the Dharma?"

Chu Huan asked carefully: "Did the master ask my subordinates to deal with the Buddhist disciples who betrayed Buddhism?"

The Ghost Master nodded slightly.

Chu Huan smiled bitterly and said, "Master, it's not that he is not willing to agree. He is just that he is not able to take on such a heavy responsibility. There are countless sentient beings in the world, and the disciples of Buddhism do not have supernatural powers. It is impossible to know where Buddhists will destroy Buddhism. Moreover, their abilities are limited and they have no talent or virtue. How can they become Buddhist guardians?"

"If you have a heart, everything will be accomplished." Master Gui said calmly: "If you have a Buddha in your heart, practicing Dharma at home is also a respect for the Buddha. You don't need to shave your hair and become a monk."

When Chu Huan heard this, he felt relieved, "Master, didn't you let me become a monk and become a Buddhist...?"

"You need to enter my Buddhist sect, but you are a Buddhist guardian who is a lion's roar." Master Gui said: "Your responsibility is not to practice Buddhism, but to protect the Dharma!"

When Chu Huan heard that he didn't have to become a monk, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master, as long as I can, I will definitely help the master to pacify the disciples who break the Dharma!"

Master Gui's voice was low and hoarse: "I want to tell you first that once you become a Buddhist guardian, you will inevitably make troubles in the future, and ghosts and monsters will definitely not disperse. The responsibility of the protector is to have the heart to devote yourself to the Buddha. Are you willing to bear such dangers?"

Master Ghost's tone was very heavy. Chu Huan vaguely realized that if he really wanted to become this so-called Buddhist guardian, there would definitely be many waves in the future. However, now he has been asking Master Ghost, and he still can't feel how big the waves are. He is a very brave person, and he is not afraid of the danger now. He nodded and said, "The master took action to save Mei Niang, and he will recreate his grace. In the future, as long as he can, he will definitely spare no effort!"

Master Gui nodded and said, "It's so great. Child, please kowtow to me a few times. From now on, you will be my disciple!"

Chu Huan couldn't help asking again: "Master, if you are a guardian, do you have to follow the Buddhist precepts?"

He was worried that he would really become a disciple of Master Gui, so he would abide by the Buddhist precepts in the future. Buddhism abstained from killing, eating meat, drinking, and marrying a wife. There were countless rules and regulations, and Chu Huan asked himself that it would never be possible to abide by it.

Master Gui repeated himself: "Your responsibility lies in protecting the Dharma, not in practicing Buddha!"

He didn't say it clearly, but Chu Huan was also a smart person. Master Ghost obviously would not directly say that you don't have to abide by the rules and precepts, but if this sentence is relaxed, since you don't have to abide by the rules and precepts, Chu Huan no longer hesitated. He fell to the ground and bowed three times to Master Ghost. Master Ghost's eyes were both relieved and worried, and seemed to hide a hint of helplessness. He raised his hand slightly and signaled Chu Huan to get up and said, "Since you are my disciple, I will give you a Dharma name!"

Chu Huan said: "Please give me a name!"

"I will give you the name of Naga!" Master Ghost said in a very serious tone: "From now on, your Dharma name is... Naga!"

Chu Huan thanked him, but he felt that the name "Naga" was very awkward.

"You need to follow me for two months!" Master Ghost said solemnly: "I will teach you the supreme Dharma of the six realms of reincarnation. If you get my robes and bowls, you can leave."

Chu Huan frowned and said, "Two months?" But in his heart, he thought that he would find the mission as soon as possible and go to Qingluo Royal City. Two months were not long or short, but he could not find time to stay here.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a sound like thunder, like thunder but not thunder.

While Chu Huan was curious, the sound had disappeared. He was about to speak, but the thunder sounded again. Chu Huan heard it clearly this time. Although the sound was like thunder, it was obviously not the sound of thunder in the sky, but it seemed like the howling of some kind of wild beast.

Master Ghost closed his eyes and whispered: "You go and rest first!" Without saying much, he sat quietly under the lonely lamp.

Chu Huan stood up, thinking about whether to discuss the time arrangement with Master Ghost, but the thunderous howl sounded again, and Chu Huan was very curious.

He had heard the howling of tigers and wolfs, but the sound was extremely strange tonight. He had never heard it before, but he didn't know what kind of beast howled the sound was.

He bowed to Master Ghost, left the house and went out, but Shubojia was waiting outside the door. Another thunder howl sounded, Shubojia looked calm, but Chu Huan couldn't help but ask, "Master, where does this voice... come from?"
