"Is this not the Buddhist treasure picked up by the great sutra predecessor?"
Jiang Liu er is excited, took a red envelope, found that is as long as an arm of the Diamond Destruction Rope, and it was forged from eight materials: "gold", "silver", "copper", "iron", "bone", "stone", and "wood".
The overall color is that of brass, and it is covered in dried blood of the Buddha. Upon closer sniffing, it has the same smell as the blood of the five Dharma Kings!
Perhaps this thing has a soul. When Jiang Liu er curiously inquired about its purpose.
The Destruction Rope suddenly flashed a golden light. Jiang Liu er suddenly had an epiphany in his heart - it could discern one's sins and right or wrong, and judge the sins committed by one's life.
If it encounters a good person, it remains unmoved.
If it encounters a bad person, it shines brightly with golden light.
What a wonderful treasure!
[Changqing Envoy]: "Oh my, Monkey King, have you looted Mount Luoshan several times already? Hey, old pig, I've got something good here. Let's pretend I didn't say anything before, hahaha..."
Jiang Liu er found it a bit amusing, how fast Elder Pig changes his face!
[Yellow Browe Old Ancestor]: "This…isn't my treasure? How could I have acquired my own artifact?"
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong]: "Oh, about this? Old Sun met you and felt a bit unpleasant, so I took the treasure."
[Yellow Browe Old Ancestor]: "???"
Huang Mei is so angry that he feels pain in his liver.
This monkey is completely lawless. How does it seem more ferocious than the Bima Wen on my side?
Suddenly, he thought of something else. Poor is oneself in another world.
Why should I be angry?
[Muscle Tang Sanzang]: "That…isn't the lotus platform of Buddha? Hahaha, that's why they are attacking you all at once. You are taking away the cushion of Sakyamuni Buddha."
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong]: "An incomplete lotus platform, that thing is very heavy. I can't even lift it, so I used the Golden Ring Rod to knock off a corner. I didn't expect that corner could also be turned into a new lotus platform, which is also a treasure."
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong]: "Talking about it, that lotus platform is quite hard. My old Sun used ten times the force with my stick, and it shocked me so much that I almost had my spirit out of my body."
[Changqing Envoy]: "Oh my, Monkey King, you have totally torn it off with the Holy Mountain!"
Jiang Liu er was wide-eyed and mouth agape, the great sage predecessor had caused too much trouble.
Taking advantage of Buddha's trip to the celestial banquet, they want to take the Buddha's lotus platform.
Found it impossible to carry away, so they smashed off a corner……
This...
If the Great Sage Preceptor is caught again by Buddha, it's uncertain whether it will be another five hundred years or more.
In this way, it appears that the Diamond Destruction Rod in his hand is the least remarkable Buddhist treasure.
However, to Jiang Liu er, this object is also a precious magical artifact comparable to the "Whirlwind Sea Calming Sword"!
After sincerely thanking the Great Sage in the group, Jiang Liu er happily put the Buddhist treasure into the Sumi-Jiascope.
……
On the other side, the Golden Light Temple.
Only one month into his term as the abbot, Master Fayang welcomed two special "visitors".
The visitors were one tall and one short... While short, they were actually no different from the average person. They were wearing Confucian robes, with beards on their faces, exuding an air of extraordinary bearing.
On the contrary, the taller of the two visitors had his head almost touching the lintel of the door. He wore simple clothes and had a look of suffering, his face full of worry.
"Amidst Treasuries Buddha, the two donors have been worshipping since early morning until sunset. What is the matter?"
Now, only the two of them remained in the temple as visitors, and Master Fayang also found them very strange. So he asked spontaneously.
The man in the Confucian robe offered a stick of incense to the Buddha statue - this was the hundredth stick of incense he had offered today.
He replied: "I have a weapon, but my skills are not high. I was careless and it was taken away by others."
The Confucian robe man glanced at the tall man, who looked embarrassed and couldn't utter a word.
"This weapon is quite special, and if I lose it, in three months I will have to enter the wheel of rebirth and continue to be an animal." The man continued, "That fellow didn't want to enter the wheel of rebirth, so he told me about this matter."
"He is under my charge, and if I don't take care of him, how will the other little soldiers look at me?"
Hearing this, Master Fayang said: "If the donor wants to seek gods and Buddha to find the lost item, that may take a lifetime."
The man in the Confucian robe smiled and said, "If one finds a person, can that person find this item?"
Master Fayang asked, "Who?"
The man replied: "Jiang Liu er."
"The Venerable does not recognize him." Master Fayang knew that he had broken his precepts, but Jiang Liu er was too special; perhaps there was some misunderstanding?
For the sake of caution, Master Fayang did not reveal the truth.
The Confucian robe man smiled: "A monk does not lie, Master Fayang, if you say this in the pulling tongue hell, is one hundred tongues enough to pull?"
Master Fayang felt a jolt in his heart. Although he guessed that the two men were extraordinary, he hadn't expected that they were connected to the underworld.
He said: "I, as an ordinary monk, cannot quite understand."
"That's fine, I'll ask others."
The man in the Confucian robe transformed into a judge, and the tall man transformed into a ghostly officer.
The two men disappeared without a trace.
Only Master Fayang remained in the empty Buddha Hall, gazing at the empty space.
"Amitabha."
He realized...
Jiang Liu er may have caused a great calamity.
...
Five days later.
The two men and the fox had been walking for a day and a night without stopping. Jiang Liu er's spirit was in good shape, but Hu Yuyu and Shou Qing were exhausted.
They stopped and rested in place.
Hu Yuyu sat in meditation, practicing the ancestral skills of the Tao. The appearance of the fox spirit enveloped his body, which was quite abnormal; while Shou Qing, carrying food, was greedily munching on it. He was the weakest of the three and also the most exhausted.
Over the past few days, Jiang Liu er has felt increasingly comfortable with the Diamond Destruction Rod.
Jiang Liu er struck a rock with one strike, and then with another, he smashed a large pit in the ground. He happily said, "This treasure is great! It can break hard things! If struck on the head, it would certainly crack an egg and even smash his soul!"
He then twisted his sword formation again, and the Whirlwind Sea Calming Sword floated behind him.
Now, he has completely mastered the flying sword. Unlike before, when he just needed to summon the flying sword, it would automatically fly towards the heart of the person it was aimed at.
At this point, Jiang Liu er only then noticed that he had another treasure.
It was the mourning staff he had stolen from the ghostly officer in the underworld.
"Although this treasure is also good, it's not mine, and I need to return it to its rightful owner."
Jiang Liu er took out the mourning staff and played around with it.
A strong gust of evil wind.
It was truly like ghostly wailing and howling.
A single strike with the staff could raise a gust of evil wind, sweep up a streak of black light, and send sand and stones flying for three zhang in radius. Smoke and dust rolled all around.
What a fine weapon, so well-suited to me!" Jiang Liu er grew more and more fond of it, especially the staff, which was long and straight, pleasing him deeply from the bottom of his heart.
However, he muttered to himself, "Master Fayang has told me not to be a bad person. I should find an opportunity to return it..."
After resting, the two men and the fox continued their journey.
As they traveled along a river, they didn't notice that the sky grew dark. The river was very wide, and it couldn't be seen at a glance. It was cooler by the riverbank.
The chilly wind blew past, and Jiang Liu er couldn't help but shiver.
At this point, they saw a boat that was crossing the river. It was brightly lit.
"Boatman on the river!" Shou Qing was overjoyed and called out, "Over here! Can you take us for a ride? We can pay you!"
The boatman seemed to have heard and changed the direction of his boat, rowing towards them with the paddle.
"Here comes the boatman!" Shou Qing said, "I will pay for the fare across the river!"
As the boat got closer, two figures on the boat could be seen.
One tall.
One short.
"Good sirs, is it fogging up on the river?" Hu Yuyu felt his vision was a bit blurred and noticed something strange about his body: "I'm feeling dizzy... No, it's not right... Just now, I ate two meat buns."
Hu Yuyu felt dizzy and had a sense of floating.
At this point, she noticed that her hand was held by the benefactor.
Jiang Liu er pulled on Shou Qing's collar, his left hand holding the fox spirit, and his right hand holding the little Taoist, turned around immediately, ready to leave.
Shou Qing was confused: "Brother, what's going on?"
Jiang Liu er spoke at an alarming speed: "My 'Jin Guang Nu Mo DuanTiFa' has reached great achievement, but I still feel very cold. This place must be extraordinary."
Hu Yuyu suddenly understood, wanting to say something, but then was shocked to realize that the benefactor seemed to be moving further away from her.
In her line of sight, she saw the benefactor was still holding her hand.
That's not right! Why could she see her own back?
The fox spirit suddenly woke up.
She immediately turned furry.
"Benefactor! I... I've lost my soul!"
