Apricot of the Great Desolation

Chapter 293 frame the blame
In the Wuzhuang Temple, there are clusters of flowers, the fragrance of spiritual trees, the rays of light reaching into the sky, thousands of auspicious colors, the dark and yellow atmosphere flowing, and the heavy and ancient pressure is revealed.

In this grand scene, the atmosphere suddenly solidified.

Before offering sacrifices to the table, Qingfeng Mingyue could no longer restrain her anger. Although the two were Daluo cultivators, they grew up together in front of Zhen Yuanzi and had never experienced killing.

In other words, their minds are not complete.

At this time, facing the monkey's rude words, he couldn't bear it for a while. Just when he was about to take action, Zhang Ye's statue suddenly shined brightly.

Then, a divine body of faith came out of it. It had the cultivation level of a sub-sage, and with the blessing of the original body, it was no weaker than a first-time saint.

After all, being worshiped by a saint, how powerful is the power of faith?
He walked out step by step, coming from an unknown place, breaking through time and space, obliterating cause and effect, and distorting life and death.

Sun Wukong only felt that the rhythm of the avenue had stopped, and all the time and space around him seemed to have solidified, and everyone was motionless.

Xuanzang's slightly bent body was frozen, and the angry expression on Qingfeng Mingyue's face had just revealed, and it seemed that Zhang Ye and him were the only ones left in the whole world.

Looking at those familiar purple eyes, Sun Yukong couldn't help but ask: "Who is the senior?"

Zhang Ye chuckled: "I am me, and I am not me. I am just the divine self of my body. If you want to know everything, just complete Journey to the West first. You will know it later!"

"I, Sun, have only heard of the true self, the self, and the true self. What is this divine self?"

Sun Wukong also saw that the terrifying existence in front of him had no intention of harming him, so he became bolder.

Zhang Ye’s body of faith did not care too much and answered patiently:
"The true self is the uncertainty of the future and the only one in endless time and space. The self is the recognition of the past and the evidence that you stay in this world. The true self is who you are now, impartial, just a point, but It represents the authenticity of existence!”

"The divine self is other people's understanding of you. People worship you and provide the power of faith. Over time, the divine self was naturally born!"

Sun Wukong nodded thoughtfully, but he still didn't understand. Zhangye also understood that the conditions for the formation of the belief in the god body are all measured in yuanhui, and the power of belief required is an extremely large number.

For a creature that was born less than ten thousand years ago, this is really difficult to understand.

Soon, Sun Wukong abandoned the distracting thoughts in his mind and asked the question he had always wanted to ask:
"Senior, I always feel like everything around me is wrong! It seems like everything is false. Why is this?"

Although Sun Wukong has forgotten the confrontation between Zhang Ye and Zhunti in his sea of ​​consciousness, he is still close to Zhang Ye subconsciously.

This feeling is very magical. It is different from the uncontrollable body situation when he met the girl before. The conversation with Zhang Ye made his mind and consciousness extremely peaceful.

Even though Monkey is arrogant and unruly, he will be full of goodwill and respect when facing a senior who is far more powerful than him but has no ill intentions.

Zhang Ye laughed dumbly, shook his head and asked: "Is your magic power real?"

Sun Wukong hesitated for a moment and said uncertainly: "Yes?"

Along the way, he found that many creatures were only slightly inferior to him in combat prowess. In terms of magical powers, he was not as good as others. For example, the weasel that could blow the wind was ridiculously strong.

The gods we saw when we were causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace were far behind these monsters.

When he finished his wreaking havoc in the Heavenly Palace and came back 500 years later, he was shocked to find that all the gods who were just Golden Immortals and True Immortals when he wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace were all great.

All of this confused him, and now he couldn't tell whether his cultivation was real or fake.

Seeing this, Zhang Ye asked again: "Then do you think you are real?"

"Yes!"

This time, the monkey answered firmly. The true meaning of practice is to eliminate the false and preserve the true. If you don't believe that you really exist, you will have turned into nothingness long ago.

Zhang Ye suddenly laughed and said in a kind tone:

"Hahaha! The great road is at your feet. You really exist. The magic power is yours. The great road is also yours. The power is still yours. If you have any doubts, just ask for it and prove it. The more you argue, the clearer it becomes and the more you prove it. More true."

After that, everything around him returned to its original state, time and space continued to flow, the lines of cause and effect were reconnected, destiny was put back on track, and everything was in order.

At this time, the monkey bowed respectfully, bowed three times and kowtowed nine times. He was the only living being besides Patriarch Bodhi to perform such a big salute.

The Qingfeng Mingyue next to them looked slightly brighter and led them forward.

Not long after, they came to a side hall. After leading them inside, Qingfeng said:

"My master went to the coast of the East China Sea to discuss Taoism with the Emperor of Earth. He is not in the audience at this time, but he told me when he left that he would give each of you a ginseng fruit!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Bajie, Monk Sha and Bai Longma all brightened up, while Xuanzang and Monkey looked confused.

Sun Wukong couldn't help but ask: "Ginseng fruit? What is that? How does it compare to the flat peaches in the Heavenly Palace?"

Mingyue said proudly: "In the past, the flat peach could be compared with my family's ginseng fruit, but now it is incomparable!"

"Oh? Why is that?"

Qingfeng Mingyue looked at the monkey and smiled without saying a word.

Originally, among the five of them, Monk Sha should have no share, but Haotian has become a master of Hunyuan, and Zhen Yuanzi's kind-hearted character will not embarrass Haotian.

This is the same as diplomacy between countries. Small countries have no diplomacy, and respect is achieved with fists.

"Guys, please wait a moment, we'll come as soon as we go!" Mingyue said, and then left with Qingfeng.

At this time, Xuanzang finally spoke: "What kind of world is this place? Why is it so strange? That Taoist boy dares to compare it with heaven!"

Xuanzang's Buddhist practice was extremely high, so he would not tell lies, but he was still a little unbelievable. Everything here was different from what they had experienced. There were no monsters and no dangers, but everything seemed so strange.

But what surprised Xuanzang was that among the three people and one horse, not one of them spoke!

"Wukong, what's wrong with you? Why don't you say anything?" Xuanzang continued to ask.

Sun Wukong, who was thinking about what Zhang Ye said, was awakened and he replied casually:
"The world is vast, and there are so many things that are difficult to understand. It is impossible to say that this is some kind of special paradise, even better than the heaven!"

Xuanzang nodded, looking deeply convinced, and said to himself: "This makes sense!"

When Zhu Bajie saw this, he quickly made a joke and changed the subject:

"Harm! What do you care about him? We just need to go to the West safely all the way, see the Deng Deng Buddha, and obtain the true scriptures. Thinking so much will only increase our troubles!"

"That's right, master, senior brother, I haven't tasted the taste of ginseng fruit yet!" Sha Wujing agreed.

"Whoa! Whoa!" The white dragon horse also snorted twice!
Just at this time, Qingfengmingyue came in, and they held a wooden plate in their hands, which was covered with silk, and five children's fruits lay on the silk, round and round, as if dug out from the belly of a pregnant woman.Xuanzang was not overly shocked. In the era when the whole people practiced, he himself was also a master in refining the virtual and combining Taoism. Naturally, he did not eat less treasures from heaven and earth, and his appearance was much weirder.

For example, there is a mangosteen tree in Jinshan Temple. It is said that the patriarch of Kaipai was lucky enough to eat the fruit from which mangosteen tree on the Western Lingshan Mountain, and cultivated it with which fruit core.

The Luo Han Guo looks like an Arhat and is illuminated by the Buddha's light, but it is similar to the ginseng fruit in front of you.Therefore, Xuanzang ate without any pressure.

Sun Wukong also looked at the ginseng fruit in his hand with curiosity, and tried to take a bite. It broke when he touched it, and the pulp flowed directly into his mouth, and he felt a cool and refreshing feeling.

Sun Wukong couldn't help groaning, with a look of enjoyment on his face, but he had already attained Daluo, and the effect of this ginseng fruit on him seemed a bit unsatisfactory.

Sha Wujing and Bai Longma are not much different. Neither of them has eaten it. After one bite, the effect is immediate. Thick essence flows all over the limbs and bones. The fragments of the Tao are flowing in the mind. The auras of the Tao are colliding. They are in Taiyi. The accumulation has become stronger.

Acquired spirits are different from innate gods and demons. The cultivation of innate gods and demons is innate, and their foundation has been extremely solid.

Low-grade innate gods and demons can grow to Da Luo, middle-grade innate gods and demons can reach quasi-sage, and the upper limit of high-grade innate gods and demons is sub-sage. Only top-grade innate gods and demons can easily attain the path of Hunyuan.

These upper limits do not mean that they can only reach this level, but that they have no bottlenecks to speak of before reaching this level.

But the acquired souls are different. They must lay an extremely strong foundation in every realm so that they can go further in the future.

Even though Zhu Bajie had eaten ginseng fruit before, he still couldn't resist the taste when he tasted it again.

You know, even Sage Hunyuan was full of praise for the taste of ginseng fruit.

As a result, bursts of indescribable sounds came from this side hall.

Qingfeng Mingyue has long been used to it. Most of the creatures who eat ginseng fruit for the first time have this reaction.

At this moment, they stared at Xuanzang with dull expressions. It was not that Xuanzang had any strange phenomena. On the contrary, Xuanzang had no strange phenomena at all, and his realm did not even fluctuate at all.

Qingfeng Mingyue was a little confused. If a mortal eats the ginseng fruit, it can directly reach the Taiyi Dao Fruit. However, Xuanzang in front of him has not yet become an immortal, and there is no reaction after eating it.

Even the reincarnated Daluo should have some reaction!
.........

At this time, somewhere in Xuanzang's body may not exist in the body, but in some unknown space.

A black mist was filled with the aura of violence, ferocity, evil, and murder.

A six-winged golden cicada was suspended in this space, and chains made of golden scriptures bound it tightly, making it unable to move.

The ginseng fruit essence eaten by Xuanzang turned into streams of emerald green light, pouring into Jin Chan's body continuously.

Jin Chan's eyes slowly opened, his golden pupils were full of indifferent colors, and there was endless violence deep in his eyes.

The six thin and translucent cicada wings behind him began to tremble slightly, and each vibration conveyed a magical power, dimming the light on the Buddhist sutra chain.

Suddenly, a murmur of Buddha's voice came, and a golden Buddha appeared in this space, with a majestic treasure appearance, chanting from the kingdom of three thousand Buddhas, immeasurable light, immeasurable life, immeasurable Dharma, and immeasurable salvation of people.

The blessing of the Buddha's sound made the scripture chain more solid, and the golden light on it bloomed with brilliance again.

The cicada wings behind Jin Chan suddenly became thicker, as if they were suppressed by something, and the amplitude of the tremors decreased.

"hiss!"

A shrill and piercing roar sounded. Jin Chanzi looked calmly and murmured to himself: "Old mosquito, thank you very much!"

.........

Suddenly, the Westward Journey group had stayed in Wuzhuang Temple for ten days. During these ten days, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing and Bai Longma finally digested the ginseng fruit and they were ready to set off.

What they didn't know was that on the other side, the two Taoist boys Qingfeng Mingyue were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

Mingyue couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you say that the monkey would definitely be greedy and come to steal the ginseng fruit? It's been ten days, why hasn't it come yet?"

Qingfeng was also very anxious, he wondered:
"This monkey wasn't so peaceful when he was stealing peaches in the peach orchard! What's wrong?"

If we look at it according to normal circumstances, the monkey really cannot bear the greed in his heart and will come to steal the fruit.

But the conversation between Monkey and Zhang Ye made him feel a little more kind to Wuzhuangguan, so he naturally couldn't steal other people's things.

No disaster in Journey to the West can be left out, and Wuzhuang Temple is no exception. We cannot let the people in Journey to the West pass by in peace.

But if someone doesn’t look for trouble, you can’t force someone to steal the fruit!

"If the mountain doesn't come towards me, I will walk towards it. Why don't you two junior brothers know how to adapt?"

Just when the two of them were at a loss what to do, a clear voice sounded, echoing in the hall.

"I've met Senior Sister!" Qingfeng Mingyue bowed.

"Free gift!"

Along with the sound, the girl walked out of the void wearing a pure white flowing fairy dress, with fairy spirit floating in the air and a flower crown on her head, like an elf in the mountains.

Mingyue couldn't bear her temper and spoke first: "What do you mean, senior sister?"

"If they don't want to steal it, then put the ginseng fruit in their baggage. When the time comes, it will be a foregone conclusion. We will just go through this disaster and just go through the motions." Nvwa said calmly.

Qingfeng is an honest child, he hesitated and said: "Senior sister, isn't this bad?"

"If there's anything wrong, at worst, I'll just give them the fruits of their frame-up!" The girl said with a nonchalant look on her face.

Mingyue was very straightforward and said directly: "Just follow what Senior Sister wants!"

……

At this time, Xuanzang and his four men were ready to go, ready to say goodbye and leave. At this moment, Qingfeng Mingyue came menacingly.

"You look like an eminent monk, but you never thought of doing such things as cocks and dogs, thanks to my master for preparing fruits for you!"

As soon as Mingyue came up, there was a rush for white, and four people and one horse were all blinded.
