I'm just an ordinary Taoist priest

Chapter 257 The Monk
Gu Yao held the crystal, a little surprised, the one that was wiped out in Wang's yard before did not have this thing.

Congenital qi, the purest qi, can only be found in newborn babies and Taoists with complete yin spirits. For humans, it is equivalent to the longevity medicine for rejuvenation.

The quarter of the palm-sized crystal in his hand is enough to make an old and dying person return to youth, and live happily for another hundred years.

If it is in the hands of ordinary practitioners, absorbing and refining it is also a treasure that can reach the sky in one step.

Other than that, the biggest use is to give spirits to divine machines, fairy swords, etc.

All in all, a great baby.

Gu Yao looked at Jing Yin behind him, weighed the crystal, and asked, "Master, can this thing help you restore your cultivation?"

He lights up.

Swish, two pairs of eyes lit up.

One pair belonged to Lu Baihou.

It has been obediently following Die'er, and at this moment it suddenly became excited, jumping up like a human being: "Little Guzi is not, Kunyang Immortal Dao, this thing is a treasure, and I have it."

"Shut up!" The owner of another pair of sparkling eyes pushed Lu Baihou down. It was Xiao Hu, and her face showed extreme desire: "Gu Yao, this thing is very attractive to me, I want it!"

Gu Yao tilted his head: "Master?"

Jing Yin stared at it for a while, then murmured: "This thing can only help me in my cultivation, my cultivation base is taken away by you, no way."

"That's it, the thing that can help you recover your cultivation is not this."

Gu Yao groped around for a while, trying to find something like a jade box to hold it, but he couldn't find it.

Seeing Gu Yao's appearance, the dying Bird Immortal struggled to fly up and took out a white jade box from behind the stone statue and put it in front of Gu Yao.

"Thank you, is your injury still recoverable?" Gu Yao thanked and looked at it.

The Niaoxian shook his head: "I can't tell, maybe there is, but it's probably too late."

It looked around melancholy, and then sighed with relief: "However, it is a good result to die now, and it is also a kind of happiness to sleep in the general's pure land forever."

Jing Yin and his entourage walked slowly, looked at the blindfolded official statue, and asked Niao Xian curiously: "You said before that this is the pure land of the general? The pure land is the supernatural power of Buddhism. Could it be that the general used to be a monk? "

The Bird Immortal nodded and said: "Please first untie the blasphemous cloth strip for the magistrate, and I will explain everything here to you."

Gu Yao got up, jumped lightly and tore off the strip of cloth. He wanted to destroy it casually, but when he held it in his hand, he found that the strip of cloth seemed to be overflowing with invisible sludge, actively entangled and clung to his hand, wanting to Close his hands to stop the flow of qi in the hands.

"Is this cloth strip also a magic weapon?"

Gu Yao straightened the cloth, about one foot long and three fingers wide, facing the sun, there seemed to be some strange characters on the black cloth, but it was really hard to see.

Seeing Gu Yao staring at this piece of cloth, the Bird Fairy took the initiative to explain: "This piece of cloth is very strange. This earth official is like the core of the pure land. It can distinguish between good and evil, cut off evil and eliminate filth. That evil tree is here This place would have been suppressed and killed by the statue of the magistrate, but after the eyes of the magistrate were covered with cloth, the statue of the magistrate lost its divine power, and was even swallowed by the tree, taking control of the Pure Land."

"If it weren't for the lack of intelligence in this tree, you wouldn't even be able to enter here at all."

Gu Yao rolled up the cloth: "Where did this cloth come from?"

The Bird Fairy shook his head: "I don't know, I'll explain to you what's going on here, and I hope you can seal it off after you leave, lest some treacherous people come here again, do dirty things, and pollute the pure land of the general."

Gu Yao nodded, and returned to the official statue. While carefully observing the official statue, he listened to the bird fairy tell about the origin of the Great General of the Flower God.

General Huashen, just as Jing Yin guessed, was originally a Buddhist, but he did not enter Buddhism voluntarily, but was forcibly transformed-the bird fairy does not know the time, and Jing Yin speculates that the time is in the chaotic world of demons based on the forced transformation. Before the Great Zhou was established, I just don't know which time period it was.

Buddhism's skills in transforming people are really powerful. When the general of the flower god entered the world, in the eyes of the bird fairy, he was already one of the strongest in the world. He has traveled all the way to save the poor and help the weak.

At that time, Huhecheng was just a small mountain village. The local people believed in a snake as a mountain god. In order to pray for peace, sacrifices were made every year—usually, the sacrifices were made by the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and the young and strong should stay. farming.

It was under such circumstances that General Huashen came here and killed the snake. Seeing the suffering of the village and considering the chaos of the world, he left behind to teach the villagers martial arts and medical skills.

It was under such circumstances that the bird fairy came here with a group of monsters.

They were all beaten to the ground by General Huashen, and "voluntarily" lived in harmony with the local villagers, establishing the original Huhe City.

This is also the reason why Huhecheng accepted the existence of Baojiaxian very much afterwards. Their ancestors and demons jointly forged this city.

It was time for General Huashen to leave, but the life he stayed here during this period of time touched his original memory and made him less Buddha-nature, which made him unwilling to leave.

When the Bird Fairy said this, he wasn't too sure. He just said that the Flower God General was becoming less and less like a monk, and that his lack of Buddha nature was his own guess.

In the confusion, General Huashen "met" his greatest enemy in this life—his master, the monk who forced him into Buddhism.

But at that time, the monk was in a state of distress. He had already established a temple with a lot of incense hundreds of miles away. The pure land was condensed with the help of incense, but everything was destroyed by a group of Taoists.

After a long period of forced transformation, he finally attracted the attack of Taoism, and finally escaped in a hurry, followed the induction to find General Huashen, and found Huhe City ecstatically.

Immediately, he immediately decided to convert the whole city, with people as monks and demons as Buddhist Dharma protectors.

The cultivation of General Huashen was taught by the monk, and his soul was even cursed. He was completely unable to resist. He could only watch the familiar people lose their thoughts, feelings and even their souls. This made him painful. Unbearable.

Hearing this, Jing Yin sighed: "What is a Buddha?"

Gu Yao walked to the back of the stone statue, and unexpectedly found that there was a word on the back of the statue: "Hou."

Immediately, he made a smart move: "Niaoxian, did someone surnamed Hou help him?"

The Bird Immortal was a little surprised, and immediately realized: "Did you see the words on the back of the stone statue? Yes, the Great General Huashen was in great pain and had a headache every day, so he could only run out of the city and hit the mountain in the wilderness." Yue, destroy yourself."

"At this moment, a strange man surnamed Hou found him, and helped General Flower God remove the curse seal on the soul, and awakened the general."

"On that day, the general returned to Huhe City. In front of the monk, he lost all his cultivation, but gathered the pure land. Relying on the divine power of the pure land, he beat the monk into the cornerstone of the pure land with his self-abuse and powerful body. Then, a strange man surnamed Hou carved out this statue of a land official and placed it in the pure land to stabilize the pure land."

"But the converted people couldn't recover, and even became idiots because of the monk's death. The remaining city residents were grateful to him and feared him, and the demons fled wildly."

"Afterwards, the general who lost his cultivation died of old age, and the people built this general temple, because the general liked to look at flowers, and once said that he wanted to be a general before he was converted, so this flower god general temple was built. And the Pure Land survives because of this statue of a land official."

Gu Yao looked at Niaoxian: "What about you?"

"Me? I'm one of the monsters who wanted to run away, but when I ran away, I looked back and felt that the figure of the general was very lonely and desolate. I remembered the scene he taught us, so I stayed and walked with him for the last journey .”

The bird fairy said lightly.

Gu Yao pondered for a moment: "The general's surname is Cheng? The Cheng family is his descendant, that's why you became a Baojiaxian?"

Niaoxian: "The general has no sons and no daughters, the Cheng family is just the one who built the temple, and perhaps the only family that still knows this history."

It was afraid that Gu Yao would have any more wonderful imaginations, and it would desecrate the saint-like general of the flower god in its heart: "I admire the general because in such an era, there were disputes between monsters and monsters, flesh and blood, and children who were exchanged for food, but he still preserved his life." After his death, I stayed here and saw more people, but there is no such person as the general anymore, so I want to keep this last pure land even more."

"Oh, so, how much do you know about that person surnamed Hou? Why did he build a statue of an official? What else did he do?" Gu Yao turned his gaze back to the word Hou.

The ancestors of the Hou family. This should be the oldest one. Hou Shengcai, Hou Duojin and others should all be his descendants. It can't be such a coincidence that there are two mysterious people with the surname Hou.

The bird fairy moved his body slightly, his wings were about to melt, and his body was about to turn into a puddle of blood: "I only know that his surname is Hou, he is a feng shui magician, he walks around, looking for dragon veins, this is what the general told me, he Said, this person will either die without leaving a trace, or live to be a great disaster."

Gu Yao frowned. This person surnamed Hou helped the General of the Flower God, but he got this evaluation, which is enough to prove that, in the eyes of the General of the Flower God, this person is very dangerous. Even if he helps him, he is not a good person.

So why is this stone statue standing here?
Gu Yao stretched out his hand to caress the ground official statue, and thought of the water official statue, he couldn't help but feel a little pity, he didn't observe the water official statue carefully at that time, wondering if the word Hou was also engraved on the back.

The three official emperors usually worship together, set up temples together, and enjoy the same incense. Such a single stone statue is very rare.

The surface of the stone statue is also very smooth. It looks rough, but the place where the hand touches it can't feel it at all. It's like stroking the pebbles just picked up from the water. It's cold and smooth.

"It seems that the material is not ordinary."

Jing Yin came over suddenly at this moment, also stretched out his hand to cover the stone statue, glanced at the bird fairy, and said in a low voice: "I think I know the way to restore my cultivation, it's just."

"only?"

"Let's explain the truth first, just absorb this piece of pure land. The foundation of my Dao is Liulihuo. This piece of pure land has no owner now, and it is also a good foundation of Buddhism. It is even stronger than my Liulihuo, but it is not so suitable. I."

Gu Yao nodded: "But?"

"It's so weird that this pure land has existed for so long without an owner."

In the final analysis, it was still the reason for this stone statue. What was the purpose of the Feng Shui master surnamed Hou in the past?Wouldn't it be reserved for future generations?
After a moment of silence, Gu Yao asked the Niaoxian: "I want to try to remove this stone statue, is that okay?"

Bird Fairy nodded: "Please do what you want."

Gu Yao looked at Jingyin, and Die'er said through sound transmission: "If there is any change here, Die'er, you must hold on."

"Okay." Die'er took the robbery sword thrown by Gu Yao.

Waiting for Mute to move away, Gu Yao mustered all his strength, supported the bottom of the stone statue with both hands, and was about to lift it up forcefully, but suddenly felt the stone statue vibrate.

Immediately, Jing Yin shouted loudly: "Gu Yao, put it down, this stone statue is alive."

Gu Yao was taken aback for a moment, and immediately let go and retreated, Die Er had already rushed to the front.

He came to the front of the stone statue, but saw the pupils in the stone statue's eyes were turning.

"What the hell is this?"

Gu Yao was taken aback, raised his hand and shot a pure qi towards the stone statue, hitting the head of the stone statue, just like hitting the top of a bell, making a calm and heavy buzzing sound.

After this blow, it seemed that the statue of the magistrate was completely awakened, as if the shell had been peeled off, piece by piece of stone flakes fell off, revealing the bald monk inside.

A beautiful monk with fair skin, red lips and white teeth exposed his upper body from the stone statue. His upper body was embroidered with lifelike boa constrictors, and his eyes scanned everyone like poisonous snakes, adding a bit of evil spirit out of thin air.

He stepped out of the stone statue, and every time he moved, the pure land would tremble.

"Is this General Huashen? Or his master, the monk who was forcibly converted?"

Die'er stood in the front, looking directly at the monk who appeared strangely.

But the monk didn't make a move. Instead, he stretched his body, as if dealing with a friend he hadn't seen for a long time, and said, "Is your surname Hou? Or do you know someone surnamed Hou?"

Gu Yao carefully replied: "I know."

"Then it's easy to handle, Xiao Daoist. At the beginning, there was a person who made a deal with me. He helped me practice, but I need to protect his descendants for ten years when I wake up in the future. I don't know where the Hou family is?" the monk asked. He squinted and smiled, his white teeth gleaming.

"In Yuhang."

"That's good."

The monk suddenly stretched his body, as if about to make a move, but disappeared in an instant.

Actually left cleanly.

After he left, the Niaoxian screamed with the last of his strength: "It's that damned evil monk, damn it, the general failed to kill him completely!"

He is really the master of General Huashen, that deal protects the blood of the Hou family.
Gu Yao was thoughtful, watching the surrounding pure land begin to collapse, turned to Jingyin and said: "Master, absorb the pure land, now, there should be no hidden dangers."

Jing Yin looked at Niaoxian, sat cross-legged in front of it and asked: "The poor nun needs this pure land, Niaoxian, you said that the flower god general has no sons and no daughters, he is the only friend of the general, do you agree? "

Because of the appearance of the monk, the bird fairy became a little hysterical: "The monk is not dead, you are not dead, you can absorb it, I only have one request, please save the monk, it is him, he is the source of all nightmares!"

"Amitabha Buddha." Jingyin whispered, clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and a thin white flame slowly ignited on her body.
