Chapter 629 Mantuo Villa
The two girls, Azhu and Abi, took Duan Yu and Yang Guo on the same boat they came in, and rowed away.
"My two sisters, where can I take shelter temporarily?"
Duan Yu pulled Yang Guo, who was still looking back, to sit down at the bow and asked.
Ah Bi calmed down a bit, thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "Now that the young master and the masters in the mansion have gone out, if the big monk goes crazy, I'm afraid no one can protect us."
Ah Zhu rolled his eyes and made up his mind, "Why don't we go to the Wang family's uncle's wife's house in Mantuo Villa to take shelter for a while?"
Ah Bi hesitated when she heard this and said, "Mrs. Wang's uncle doesn't allow us to come over, and she has a bad temper. If she sees us, she'll probably give us a slap in the face."
"It doesn't matter. My uncle and madam Wang used to quarrel with the old lady, but now the old lady is dead. You and I, two little girls, have never had any grudges against her, so why would she vent her anger on us? Besides, our two families are relatives after all, so they will not stand by and watch someone die."
Ah Zhu, however, had her own ideas and comforted her in a gentle voice.
Ah Bi was relieved after hearing this and nodded, "That's right."
So, the group of four rowed the boat away from the shore.
Duan Yu saw Yang Guo still looking at the shore, thinking that he was worried about Chai Xin's safety, so he comforted him, "Don't worry, nephew. With Brother Chai's skills, even if he can't subdue that thief, he should be able to protect himself."
Unexpectedly, Yang Guo shook his head and said, “I know my uncle is very powerful, but I’m just worried that if I go somewhere else, he won’t be able to find me.”
The child had been lonely for many years since childhood, and now he finally has relatives. He is naturally a little uneasy about the sudden separation.
Ah Bi was the most gentle, and seeing that Yang Guo was handsome and cute, she couldn't help but feel pity for him, and said softly, "Don't worry, I think with Master Chai's methods, he will definitely find a way to find us."
"That's right. Even if Master Chai can't find him, we can avoid the limelight and come back to look for him. With Murong's means, we only need to release the news and Master Chai will know it."
Ah Zhu, who was rowing the boat, also tried to persuade them in a gentle voice.
“Thank you, my two sisters, and thank you, Uncle Duan.” Yang Guo felt relieved after hearing this and thanked them.
"This generation system is really confusing. I call the two girls sisters, and you follow suit, but you call me uncle..."
Duan Yu laughed out loud when he heard this and thought Yang Guo was very interesting.
"Uncle Duan is my uncle and brother, so I should call him Uncle Duan."
Yang Guo regained his lively nature at this time and laughed when he heard it.
"My two sisters are so young and beautiful, and they don't look much older than me. They have no old acquaintance with my uncle. If I call them aunt or concubine, wouldn't it be too abrupt?"
Everyone thought it made sense, and Ah Zhu and Ah Bi also covered their faces and laughed softly.
They are only three or four years older than Yang Guo, and if they were really called elders, they would feel a little uncomfortable.
the other side.
Chai Xin used the Great Compassion Hand Seal and the "Dao Xuan Gong" to finally subdue Jiumozhi and help him escape from the evil path.
Although Jiumozhi's internal strength was lost, his spirit became more full. He sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at Chai Xin without any resentment in his eyes, but instead with a feeling of gratitude and admiration.
"Master Chai, I made a mistake and almost went astray, which has already planted the seeds of disaster. If it weren't for your help, I would have died soon. Although I have lost my martial arts, I am still alive. Thank you very much for saving my life."
As he said this, he slowly stood up and bowed deeply to Chai Xin.
Chai Xin did not dodge, but accepted his salute seriously, then returned the salute and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Master, for realizing the true meaning of Buddhism. From now on, you will have a smooth road ahead and hope for the right result."
"I have traveled all the way east, but I have committed many sins. How can I dare to hope for a good result? I am afraid that when I return to Tubo, I will devote myself to practicing Buddhism and make up for some of my sins. In any case, I would like to thank you for your kindness."
Jiumozhi clasped his hands together and said with a smile.
How could this compassionate and peaceful demeanor be compared to the evil monk who was competitive and wanted to take people's lives at any time?
However, although Jiumozhi was cruel and ruthless, he practiced Buddhism after all. Although he caused a lot of trouble along the way, he did not kill many people.
Therefore, it can be said that it is never too late to mend one's ways.
Otherwise, if it was the so-called high monk who had committed many sins of murder, Chai Xin would not let him go ashore regardless of whether he turned back or not.
My goodness, after doing evil all his life, if he repents at the last moment, he can become a Buddha right away?
Whether or not you can become a Buddha is the Buddha's business, and Chai Xin's duty is to send you to see the Buddha.
"With Master's current state of mind, if you study martial arts again, not only will you get twice the result with half the effort, but you will also benefit the people. Good!"
Chai Xin said seriously.
Jiumozhi smiled and said calmly: "Except for Buddhism, all other ways are minor. If I get it, I am lucky. If I lose it, it is my fate. Why should I force it?"
His mentality now has been completely transformed and he is now a completely different person than before.
Chai Xin's words "take off your sweat shirt" were really a wake-up call, making him suddenly sober.
The so-called fame, wealth and power, and even greed, anger, ignorance, love and desire, are all the "sweat shirts" worn by the human body, and can be said to be shackles put on us after birth.
Now that the shackles were removed, Jiumozhi naturally felt extremely free and relaxed.
"There are no mean paths in the world, there are only mean people."
Chai Xin replied calmly.
Jiumozhi was startled when he heard this, then he put his hands together and bowed, saying sincerely: "The donor is indeed very wise. I am grateful for your teaching."
"If you can rebuild your martial arts and benefit the suffering people in the world, you will naturally have infinite merits. There is no good or evil in martial arts, and there is no right or wrong. It all depends on the person."
After Chai Xin said this, without waiting for the other party to answer, he suddenly turned around and pulled a piece of wood from the table next to him that had already been shattered.
He then turned the board over to reveal its original wood color, and at the same time, he used his fingers like swords to carve on it with his inner strength.
Soon, a lifelike image of Buddha appeared on the wooden board.
"Master, this Buddha statue of mine may be able to help you. I will take it as a reward for your inner strength and settle this cause and effect."
Chai Xin handed over the wooden board.
He had seen powerful Buddhist practitioners in the world of immortality, such as Feng Baiyu, who was the reincarnation of Sakyamuni, the Lord of Heaven, and a disciple of the World-Honored King Buddha.
Although this incarnation's memory of the world of immortality is extremely vague, even if it can depict the image of Buddha, it can hardly be one ten-millionth of its true charm.
But even so, it is still enough to stir up huge waves for the relatively low-level martial arts world of the heroes.
Jiumozhi wanted to refuse at first, but when he first glanced at the wooden board, he was immediately deeply attracted and couldn't extricate himself for a long time.
He just stared quietly at the portrait of Buddha on the wooden board, as if he had entered into an inexplicable profound realm.
When he came to his senses, he didn't know how many hours had passed. The wooden board had already been placed on the ground in front of him, and Chai Xin's figure had long disappeared. "Disciple Jiumozhi, thank you for the grace of the master to teach you the Dharma!"
Jiumozhi was silent for a moment, then suddenly kowtowed three times to the wooden board on the ground, with an extremely pious expression.
Only someone like him, who has truly practiced Buddhism since childhood, experienced many worldly affairs, and finally achieved great enlightenment, can comprehend a hint of the true meaning of Buddhism from the image of Buddha carved on this wooden board.
If it were an ordinary person, they would just think it was an ordinary portrait of Buddha and would not see anything special about it, and would probably just throw it away.
It was for this reason that Jiumozhi was able to glimpse the vast wisdom of Chai Xin from this portrait of Buddha.
He deeply understood that the Buddhism and martial arts he had pursued throughout his life were probably not even one ten-thousandth of the true meaning conveyed by Chai Xin's portrait!
Although he didn't understand how Chai Xin, at such a young age, could comprehend such a high level of realm, he was very clear what a rare opportunity this was for him.
So he did not hesitate, and regardless of whether Chai Xin agreed or not, he kowtowed to the wooden board and became his disciple.
Jiumozhi clearly realized that his Dantian Qi Sea, which had been empty, had started to move again on its own without him knowing when.
The lost internal energy was replenished rapidly in an indescribable way and at an unimaginable speed.
Moreover, these new internal forces are far more powerful and comprehensive than those cultivated before, and contain all kinds of wonderful uses.
This point alone is enough to prove Chai Xin's extraordinaryness.
According to the current speed of internal energy accumulation, Jiumozhi estimated that within three to two months, his internal energy would be able to recover to its previous peak state, and even better!
After experiencing such a miraculous change, it is no wonder that he was so shocked even though he had clearly gained enlightenment, and regarded Chai Xin as a god.
In fact, it was not entirely due to Chai Xin that he had such a change.
Again, if he had not practiced Buddhism for many years and finally attained enlightenment, even if the supreme scroll was placed before him, he would have regarded it as just waste paper.
Everything in the world is subject to fate and is created by nature.
"Master, you are right. I have done many wrong things in my life. How can I turn a blind eye and go back to Tibet? I must do my best to make up for my past mistakes. Only then can I be a prodigal son and atone for my sins."
Jiumozhi picked up the wooden board and held it in his arms like a treasure, but he was not in a hurry to look for Chai Xin. Instead, he planned to find a secluded place to quietly recover his power.
Let’s talk about Chai Xin again.
After he left Jiumozhi, he picked up a small boat from the shore, and without using a pole, he used his inner strength to drive the waves and sailed away from the shore like an arrow.
In fact, Duan Yu and his companions had only rowed the boat for three or four miles, not very far.
Chai Xin deliberately did not catch up, but followed far behind.
The purpose of his trip was to visit the Langhuan blessed land in Mantuo Villa. Without A-Bi and A-Zhu to lead the way, it would probably take some time.
"I have gained five more years of strength from Jiumozhi. Now I am invincible among the top masters."
Chai Xin looked at the water, feeling the surging internal strength in his body, and gradually he was able to sense some of the real secrets of this world.
Of course, it is only perception at present, and there is still a long way to go before it can be truly touched or even controlled.
Jiumozhi is quite powerful. Even though he is slightly inferior to Cao Zhengchun, the difference is not much. His skills are more than 52 years.
After being purified and refined by Daoxuan Gong, Chai Xin only had five years left.
After absorbing his internal energy, Chai Xin's skills truly broke through fifty years, jumping from more than forty-eight years to fifty-four years.
The practice of "Daoxuan Gong" has also temporarily reached its peak and reached the ninth level!
With the characteristics of "Daoxuan Gong" and his own martial arts experience, those in the martial arts world with less than sixty years of martial arts skills are probably no match for him.
He could handle top figures like Huang Yaoshi and Hong Qigong with ease unless five or six of them came at him at once.
Even if five or six people surrounded him, even if he could not defeat them, he would have no problem keeping his life.
"If one has practiced for more than sixty years, he can be called a peerless master in today's martial arts world. People like Tianshan Tonglao and the three carefree elders, or Murong Bo and Xiao Yuanshan, can roughly fall into this category."
As his strength grew, it became increasingly difficult to improve quickly.
After all, to reach the ninth level of Daoxuan Gong, one must absorb the help of top masters with more than fifty years of skills in order to maintain the highest conversion rate.
But looking at the world, how many top masters can there be?
Together with the Jin and Qing dynasties, the Mongolian and Liao dynasties, the Song dynasty, and even many other small countries such as Tibet, Dali, Japan, and Goryeo, there are probably only thirty or forty people at most.
As for when Chai Xin continues to improve and his skills reach sixty years later, there will probably be even fewer masters who can meet the standard.
So far, he could only guess the identities of a few people including the Three Elders of Xiaoyao.
As for the masters above them, they are estimated to be at the level of Zhang Sanfeng, the Sweeping Monk, and Zhao Wusi.
"After reaching the level of 60 years old, I'm afraid it will no longer be possible to improve steadily and step by step. Otherwise, people like Zhao Wushi and Wuyazi who practiced the method of absorbing energy would have already become saints."
In just two months, Chai Xin's martial arts skills have reached the top level in the martial arts world, even comparable to the peerless masters. With the help of the Creation Seal, he has gradually gained some insights into the rules of this world.
He could feel that there seemed to be an invisible membrane covering his head.
At his current rate of improvement, it won't be long before he actually touches that invisible barrier.
While they were thinking, Azhu and A Bi had already brought Duan Yu and Yang Guo to an island.
There is still a row of tall weeping willows on the bank, and in the distance you can see a cluster of cloud-like flowers reflected in the water, which is beautiful beyond words.
Looking closely, all I saw were colorful red and white camellia flowers, and it was hard to see any houses.
Chai Xin held his breath, and the boat gradually stopped. He was not in a hurry to go ashore, but wanted to use some means to let the owner of the villa on the island notice the intrusion of outsiders.
Otherwise, if Duan Yu and the others saw that I had arrived, I'm afraid they might not continue to land on the island and might even turn the boat around.
After all, Jiumozhi is no longer a threat, and Chai Xin can't lie.
Otherwise, everyone will eventually see Jiumozhi and will notice his changes, and his lies will be exposed. Then he will have been a villain in vain.
But before Chai Xin could make any move, there seemed to be a group of people on the island. They had already noticed that someone had landed on the island, so they came together.
The sound of jingling bells and bracelets came from the wind, and pairs of women in green walked out from the flowers. They were all dressed as maids, and each held a long sword in their hands. A total of nine pairs of women came out.
The eighteen women lined up in two rows, holding swords at their waists and pointing diagonally upwards. After they all stood still, a graceful figure approached.
