I have Taoism and can understand other worlds

Chapter 346 Past events

Jiang Wen stood by the river, listening to the sound of the river flowing and the chirping of insects at night. The flowers and moon in the sky are like water, scattered in the river and making waves. The weeds on both sides of the bank are undulating, and the shadows are staggered, which makes it feel quite lonely in the middle of the night.

Looking down at his feet, the little girl whose legs were broken because of theft was lying next to her. Her face looked pale and her cheeks were sunken. She was so skinny that she couldn't tell that she was a girl.

Now she was lying in the river, staring at the night sky with her mouth open. He looked like he was about to die, as if his soul would fall into the trickling river at any time.

Jiang Wen didn't know what happened. He just walked to the little girl silently. He stretched out his hands to pick up the little girl from the river, and gently stroked her cheek. The little girl seemed to sense something and looked directly at him. The turbid despair in his eyes slowly faded away, and his energy returned.

"Help, help me." The little girl begged. Her breath was unstable and seemed to break anytime and anywhere. Under her ragged clothes, there were purple wounds everywhere. It's shocking to see. It's hard to imagine that a child could crawl out of the cold river after suffering such a beating.

How strong should her belief in survival be? Jiang Wen thought to himself.

He didn't investigate why he was here, nor did he try to ask where this was.

He just took off his robe and gently wrapped it around the little girl. Then he took out a pill from his storage bag and fed it into the little girl's mouth. He put his hand on her leg to heal the broken leg bone.

"Live well and stop doing these thefts." Jiang Wen felt that some kind of force was repelling him and wanted to push him out of this strange world.

He thought for a while, then took out a silver coin and a jade pendant and placed them next to the little girl. Then the whole person was expelled from this world by invisible force. The scene in front of him gathered together like a broken mirror, and then his thoughts returned to the memory of worshiping gods and meeting people.

Jiang Wen saw the little girl get up from the ground and sit quietly for a long time holding the clothes he gave her. She made clothes that she could wear, and carefully hid the ingot of silver and jade pendant in her arms.

In the days that followed, the little girl found a hard job in the city. She ate and worked together with the men, and felt soreness in her back every day when she rested. But every time when she was tired, the little girl would always take out the jade pendant and check it in her hand. She would hold the jade pendant tightly until she fell asleep. It was as if it was her lifeblood, her hope for survival.

Time passes year by year, and the little girl slowly grows into a big girl. She was still a girl after all, and after highlighting her girlish characteristics, she became a maid in a wealthy family.

Until one day, the city was captured by bandits. The wealthy family suffered a disaster, and only the girl was left alive.

She escaped from the city and left the place where she had lived for a long time. On the way to escape, she met many people, many who were fleeing like her.

On the way, the girl tried her best to disguise herself. She protected everything about herself well and did not expose it to other people's sight.

But the horse thieves finally caught up. They killed many people and took away everyone's belongings. Even the girl's package was not spared. The horse thieves hurriedly turned through her package, but inside there was only a set of shabby clothes. Jiang Wen could see that those were the clothes he once covered the little girl with, but he didn't expect that she would keep them for so long.

The horse thief didn't find anything valuable, so he hurried away. The mess left on the ground and the wailing people were all absurd and bizarre to the eye.

When the officers and soldiers arrived in a hurry, the girl and the fleeing people felt relieved. But no one expected that the officers and soldiers would also fish it out, and the people who had already been squeezed out would be robbed again.

The money the girl had hidden was taken away, and all the clothes she was carrying were thrown to the ground. She hugged the dress tightly and carefully touched the jade pendant hidden in the secret place. That was something she couldn't lose, a treasure more important than life.

Later on, mysterious people always came to preach among the refugees. The girl looked at the clothes worn by those people, which were somewhat similar to the clothes in her hands. I just went in out of curiosity to give it a try, but I didn't expect that I actually entered this sect called the God Worship Society.

Jiang Wen looked at the picture, and he could see clearly how the early worshipers recruited people. It is nothing more than promoting doctrines among refugees and then absorbing qualified refugees into the church.

The girl entered the worship meeting, was assigned a place to live, and then asked questions. She told what happened when she was rescued, and the missionary said with a profound expression: "It was the Sanming World Honored One who saved you. The Three Bright World Honored One is the one who saves people who are in trouble, and all suffering people will be protected by the World Honored One. "Can I see my life-saver again?" the girl asked expectantly.

"As long as you have contributed to the God Worship Association, we will see you again."

So she started practicing in this place where the God Worship Association was founded, attending gods and performing various brainwashing activities every day. Over time, everyone here has become a fanatical believer in the God-Worship Society. They have experienced hardships since childhood and firmly believe in the doctrine of God-Worship Society to save the world and benefit the people.

In the girl's memory, Jiang Wen saw that they understood that their actions were saving the common people, and everything they did was to free the common people from suffering.

"The World Honored One has made a great oath to the common people to save those in distress. All living beings are sacred, and all suffering is transcendent..."

The verses from the God Worship Meeting echoed in her memory. After Jiang Wen finished reading her life experience, she slowly withdrew from her memory.

When he opened his eyes, both Zi Le and Hong Luan were staring at him closely. There was a surprised look in his eyes.

"Why do you look at me like this?" Jiang Wen asked in confusion.

The two people looked at each other, and then said in unison: "A strange thing happened just now."

"Weird thing? What weird thing?" Jiang Wen was confused.

"Don't you feel it yourself?" Hong Luan asked with a blink.

"I don't know what happened." Jiang Wen shook his head.

"Brother, you just disappeared for a while." Zile gestured to tell what had just happened. She said that not long ago, Jiang Wen's body suddenly disappeared in front of several people. It still disappeared completely, as if it didn't exist in this world at all.

"Did I really disappear just now?" Jiang Wen was stunned.

"Yes."

Hearing the affirmative answer, he fell silent. If Zile wasn't lying, then he really went to that girl's time and space not long ago, and truly traveled through the past.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wen quickly entered his consciousness to check the stone tablet. The merit value above was originally 170,000, but now only 100,000 is left.

"..." Jiang Wen connected the two things and finally understood the ins and outs of this matter.

In other words, he spent 70,000 merit points to travel to the girl's time and space and rescued her. Would the little girl have survived without his intervention? Maybe he will survive? Jiang Wen was not sure about this either.

After all, he had only encountered the magical power of traveling through time and space in the spiritual veins of this world.
