Seeing that Xu Qi'an was silent, Pearl's idea was transmitted

"It is said that in ancient times, there was only one continent in this world. Later, after the end of the age of gods and demons, the world collapsed and the mainland of Kyushu was shattered, forming countless islands.

"The island floating out of Guixu should be a part of Kyushu Mainland..."

Xu Qi'an nodded and looked at the "Nu Lang" island owner, saying:

"Ask him what he thinks in detail."

Pearl "translates" Xu Qi'an's words to Nu Lang Island owner, who hears the words and looks serious

"I suspect that some gods and demons have not fallen, but are trapped on the island.

"They look so real, so powerful, and the overflowing power will drive people crazy, but a terrible barrier blocks the island from inside and outside.

"In the process of approaching the barrier with Mo Yu, he and the Dragon guards were infected with the terrible smell of gods and demons, and changed a lot."

As for why the breath of gods and Demons gives the spirit of black jade and dragon and human guards, the owner of Nu Lang Island himself is not clear. The island itself is a mystery, which needs to be explored and studied.

The Nine Tailed Fox sneered

"Who can trap the gods and demons on an island? Even if it's a continent. "

She didn't believe the words of Nu Lang Island leader, but preferred to believe Xu Qi'an, who had seen the falling of gods and demons in Gu Shen's memory.

However, the island itself represents "inconceivable", so Nine Tailed Fox did not directly refute it.

"Just go and see for yourself."

Xu Qi'an looked at the big, ferocious green scale dragon

"You lead the way."

Pearl translates the words to the master of Nu Lang island. The green scale dragon man looks at the Nine Tailed sky fox.

Although alsu island has given birth to civilization and established a city-state, the survival rule of respecting the strong still affects the majority of the descendants of gods and demons.

The only one who could force him to risk was the demon Kingdom Master from the mainland of Kyushu.

As for why it is semi forced, the owner of Nu Lang island is unwilling to return to the "magic island" to find out.

Compared with the last time we met, the strength of this Nine Tailed Fox seems to have made great progress. I'm afraid it's very close to the first level of the Terran.

With her, it will be more sure to explore "magic island".

But the owner of Nu Lang Island did not immediately nod his head.

Aware of his meditation and hesitation, the silver haired witch asked with a smile:

"What's the problem?"

The master of Nu Lang Island gently breathed out a breath and said:

"The existence of Shenmo island had been revealed before I came back. After such a long time, many supernatural descendants of Shenmo have gathered in Nanhai Guixu."

The "friend" sold him the news, but not just one dragon.

That means there will be a lot of competitive pressure.

Although the particularly powerful descendants of gods and demons have long been in decline, the vast overseas area is countless times that of the mainland of Kyushu. It is still an amazing number to gather all the supernatural descendants of gods and demons.

Even if only a part is gathered, it is a very strong force.

Nu Lang island Master felt that he must state his interests, so as to avoid the Nine Tailed Tianhu being too ostentatious and causing the descendants of gods and demons to attack.

Pearl translated to Xu Qi'an, who was overjoyed and blurted out:

"And this good thing?"

? Nu Lang island Master can't understand the Terran language, but he seems very happy to see the male face of the Terran shining with naked eye speed.

Is this something to be happy about?

..........

Western regions.

A city-state called "Beichang" is located in the north of Mount aranto. Because of poverty and desolation, the city-state is somewhat dilapidated and depressed.

The Lord of the city is the only nobleman here. He was appointed by aranto because he traveled thousands of miles to make a pilgrimage to aranto when he was young.

The city wall of Beichang is mainly made of stone and loess, almost integrated with the desert outside the city, with a ray of loneliness and desolation of ancient flavor.

Zhu Lai is a beggar in Beichang city. He is 17 years old. Wearing a ragged robe and leaning on a stick, He staggers along the street of Beichang, praying for someone to show kindness and give him a little food for the man who hasn't eaten for four days.

Beichang is barren. People living here are short of food and clothing. Where can they give alms to beggars?

"Have you seen the notice on the notice board? It's said that there will be a Buddhist assembly in the holy mountain of alantuo in the autumn to gather believers from the western regions to go on a pilgrimage. "

"Well, it's a long way to go. How can we get there? Not to mention bandits and robbers, cold and hunger alone can kill you. "

"You don't have to worry about the cold when you go there, but it's autumn when you return..."

The conversation of pedestrians on the street attracted Zhu Lai's attention.

Is Aranda going to hold a Dharma Assembly and gather believers for a pilgrimage?

Zhu Lai's spirit was like pouring a bucket of cold water on a hot summer day. He immediately dragged his tired body to the notice board at the gate of the city.

In his begging career, he had heard about the Lord of the city.

It is said that the Lord of the city was a loafer when he was young. One day, he suddenly felt that he was born for the Dharma, so he went all the way to Aranda for a pilgrimage.

He bathed in the light of the Buddha in the holy mountain and was appreciated by the Buddhism. He became a Buddhist disciple.

From then on, he took the position of the Lord of the city.

This story has been handed down from mouth to mouth in Beichang for many years. It can be said that it is a template for believing in Buddhism and changing life.

A pilgrimage to Buddhism can change his fate. Zhu Lai had only one thought in his mind: go to the notice board and see what happened!

Half a mile away, he seemed to have walked for half a lifetime. When he arrived at the notice board, he was panting and dizzy.

"What does the notice say?"

He grabbed a common man by the bulletin board.

"Damn beggar, get out of the way."

The man burst into a rage and kicked Zhu Lai away.

Zhu Lai, who was already hungry and thirsty, fell to the ground heavily. He only felt that his consciousness began to leave his body and his life was coming to an end.

It took a while for him to regain control of his body.

"Would you like some water?"

A gentle voice rang out in his ear. Zhu Lai opened his eyes and saw a middle-aged man standing beside him with a bag of water.

The middle-aged man was dressed in a thick and simple robe. His skin was dark. He looked like a common people in the city, but his eyes were so gentle and kind.

Zhu Lai sipped his dry and cracked lips, couldn't wait to take the water, and began to drink.

He was thirsty for a long time.

When he emptied the water bag, Zhu Lai belched contentedly. At this time, he felt uneasy and alert. He didn't know why the middle-aged man in front of him wanted to help such a sloppy beggar.

"Amitabha!"

The middle-aged man put his hands together and said happily:

"I thought you were dead just now."

It turned out to be a Buddhist... Zhu Lai was relieved, but at the same time he felt a little strange.

There are many Buddhists in Beichang's Buddhist territory, but according to his understanding, the Buddhists in the city believe in fighting for passage through the bitter sea and gaining the fruit.

It's about yourself.

Little enthusiasm for good.

"Thank you

But he expressed his thanks and carefully handed back the water bag.

The middle-aged man took the water bag and said:

"The notice says that Aranda is going to hold a Dharma Assembly and call on believers to go on a pilgrimage. But it's just a call to the powerful and the wealthy.

"People like us can't get to aranto at all."

Zhu Lai was silent for a moment and said "thank you.".

The middle-aged man continued:

"The real Buddha is not in Arantha!"

Zhu Lai was surprised and looked around in panic. He didn't expect that middle-aged people would say such rebellious words.

Fortunately, the pedestrians were in a hurry and no one paid attention to this side.

The middle-aged man said:

"I believe in the Mahayana Dharma, the real Buddha. Little brother, you are predestined relationship with our Mahayana Buddhism. Would you like to join our Mahayana Buddhism? "

mahayana?!

Zhu Lai has heard of this cult. It is said that all living beings can become Buddhists. If it is too specific, he doesn't know. In a word, it is a cult of deceiving people.

"What are you talking to me about? I, I'm a devout Buddhist. I'm going to make a pilgrimage to Aranda. "

Zhu Lai said in a loud voice that he didn't expect to meet a cult here.

As he spoke, he got up and tried to leave the eccentric middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man walked slowly behind him in a slow voice

"If you can't get to aranto, you will die on the way."

"It's none of your business."

Zhu Lai just wanted to stay away from him, away from the deceptive Mahayana Buddhism.

Beichang is cracking down on Mahayana Buddhists, and seizing them is the death penalty.

Although he is a beggar with poor life, he doesn't want to die.

"Little brother, Mahayana is the real Dharma. If you don't believe it, I can take you to listen to the teachings of Mahayana." The middle-aged people kept their voices down and did not give up the opportunity to preach.

Maybe I can pretend to be a member of the Mahayana sect, and then report it to the city master in exchange for the money I need to go to Aranda..... Thinking of this, Zhu Laimeng stops and looks at the middle-aged man:

"Well, I'll listen to it for the time being."

The middle-aged man said happily:

"Little brother, you must believe in Mahayana Buddhism."

No, even if I die, I will not believe in Mahayana Buddhism even if I jump down from the city on the way to death.

He followed the middle-aged man in silence. They walked through the streets and stopped in a secluded alley. The middle-aged man knocked the gate of a yard rhythmically.

Suddenly, the door of the courtyard opened, and an old woman with gray hair opened the door for them.

The two enter the courtyard and follow the old woman to the side room, which connects to the cellar.

Pushing open the door of the cellar, a faint light poured into it. Zhu Lai's eyes swept, and saw more than 20 people in ragged robes sitting in the futon. With their hands folded and their eyes closed, they listened attentively and devoutly to a young monk's lecture.

As the door of the cellar opened, the believers turned to look back, and the young monk, who was facing the door, stopped and looked this way.

The middle-aged man took two steps forward and put his hands together

"Master Jingsi, I had a chance to join Mahayana Buddhism."

After that, he beckoned to Zhu Lai to come forward.

Zhu Lai looked at the young monk as he moved forward.

He has beautiful eyes and fair skin. He doesn't look like a native of the western regions at all.

If Xu Qi'an was here, he would recognize that he was little monk Jingsi who followed duerohan when the western regions mission came to Beijing.

He is not old, but he has become a Vajra.

When he was young, he became the leader of the cult, which must be very valuable.

At this time, he listened to Jingsi and said with a smile:

"Benefactor looks very bad, and his stomach is empty. If you don't eat fast first, then listen to the poor monk's sermon with other disciples."

There's food left? Zhu Laixin said that's great. Before exposing you to the Lord of the city, I'll give you a free meal.

The gray haired old woman soon brought a pile of white flour steamed bread and a bowl of water.

Zhu Lai devoured the food and soon solved the problem of food and clothing.

Jingsi looked at all this with a smile and turned to the middle-aged man

"The Mahayana Dharma is to help others and themselves, save the common people from suffering, and help the common people get the fruits. You have done a good job."

The middle-aged man put his hands together and said:

"I am fortunate to listen to the Buddhist scriptures."

They put their hands together and recited:

"Amitabha!"

Jingsi continued

"Today, a new member has joined us. I want to tell you the origin of Mahayana Dharma again for the new comers to know.

"Mahayana Buddhism originated from Dafeng in the Central Plains. It was initiated by Xu Qi'an, the silver Gong of Dafeng. Xu Yinluo was the reincarnation of the Lord of Ten Thousand Buddhas in the 3000 world. In the fighting method of Buddhism in Dafeng capital, he turned into durohan.

"Durohan realized the true meaning of Mahayana Dharma and became the Second Buddha of Mahayana Dharma teaching."

How can Rohan be a Buddha? There is only one Buddha in the world! Zhu Lai turned his mouth quietly.

He listened with disdain to the young monk telling the Mahayana Dharma. Every time the young monk said a word, he would retort in his heart, or sneer with disdain.

But when he heard that all beings were equal, Zhu Lai was silent.

If there is a place in the world where all living beings are equal, then I will defend it to the death... He murmured in his heart.

He was a beggar since he was a child. He was blinded and bullied. He lived a miserable life.

He unconsciously changed his mind and began to listen to the Scriptures and think seriously.

"If Allan Tuo, if all the Buddhists in the western regions, would I still be a beggar? Will my destiny change? "

"If I didn't have that uncle's help just now, I am still suffering from hunger..... Is such Mahayana Buddhism really a cult....."

All kinds of ideas flashed through his mind.

Before he knew it, Zhu Lai heard the young monk say:

"That's all for today!"

He suddenly came back and found that the sunlight in the crack of the door had become golden red, dusk.

Oh, I forgot to beg. I had to go hungry again tonight... Zhu Lai was very anxious and annoyed.

A beggar like him, who has not had another meal, has to work hard to eat every moment, otherwise he will be hungry.

Thinking of this, he stood up in a hurry and planned to leave.

What the little monk said was quite reasonable. He didn't expose him first..... Zhu Lai was about to leave, but he found that all the Mahayana believers around him were sitting still, and no one got up to leave.

The people looked at the young monk expectantly.

Then he saw little monk Jingsi take out a bunch of copper coins from his sleeve and say to the old woman:

"Give everyone a point!"

The old woman took the money and distributed it evenly among the people according to their heads.

Still, there's money to take?! Zhu Lai looked down at the five copper plates in his palm. In Beichang City, he could buy five steamed buns.

Save some food, enough to feed him for three days.

What denomination is this? Is there a sect that gives money to believers in this world?!

Zhu Lai's Three Outlooks suffered a serious impact.

Monk Jingsi said gently:

"It's the tenet of Mahayana Buddhism that Buddha will not let his followers suffer from hunger. It's the practice of Mahayana Buddhism."

Zhu Lai clenched the copper money in his hand and felt that he had found an organization.

Later, he found that the middle-aged man who had joined the church was given ten coppers.

Huh? Don't you mean people are waiting for you?!

Zhu Lai can't understand.

The middle-aged man said with a smile:

"This is the reward I deserve. If I spend one person, I will be rewarded five copper coins. This is my rule."

I know a lot of beggars, a lot of beggars, I, I'm going to get rich.

Only believe in Mahayana Buddhists, believe in the Lord of all Buddhas!
