After the five-year-old milk bag came down the mountain, everyone was vying to dote on her

Being able to suppress the Master's Wife who was about to become the Ghost King, each of those eighteen Arhats had profound Buddhist teachings.

What Buddhism emphasizes is compassion, using one's own body to save the world, using oneself as an example, urging good people to do more good deeds, and urging evil people not to continue to do evil.

Although they all promote good Dharma, unlike Taoist concepts, Buddhism prefers to condone all evils at this time and does not advocate eliminating them.

So most of the time, Buddhism focuses on salvation. Taoism, on the other hand, basically has a black-and-white worldview.

Good is good and evil is evil.

If you do something wrong, you will be punished, and no one will advise you to turn back.

If they are extremely evil, they will be killed on the spot.

No one gives you a chance to change your past.

The second senior brother was a monk in his previous life, so he chose to sacrifice himself and use suppression to treat the female general.

If the second senior brother was a Taoist priest in that life, it is estimated that after the female general committed the murder, the second senior brother was killed by Jiang Qi without saying a word.

Those eighteen Arhats must have accumulated a lot of merit during their lifetimes if they had such profound Buddhist teachings.

I guess all of them are kind and compassionate people.

And how could such a person get involved with the Holy Religion?
Ruanruan can't understand it at all. In her eyes, the holy religion is bad.

And so it is. "ha?"

Xiaotuanzi tilted his head, his big eyes seemed to be able to talk. Even though the little novice monk didn't know much about human affairs, he quickly understood Ruanruan's meaning.

He smiled bitterly and slowly said: "My senior brothers are all good people who are dedicated to the Buddha. They were once ascetics who came from the same sect, but I was an abandoned baby who was picked up by them from outside. I have always been Follow them in penance."

"At that time, when we came here to beg for alms, we encountered a fierce ghost fighting with a man. The senior brothers stepped forward to help suppress the fierce ghost, but they could not save it no matter what. The fierce ghost was extremely powerful. If not dealt with, it would definitely happen in the future. It became a big problem and became a big problem. The man said he had a way to deal with this evil ghost, but he just needed our help, so the senior brothers agreed. "

ah.
Could it be that the so-called fierce ghosts and men are Gu Huan and the master's wife who tricked the master?
With Ruanruan thinking like this in her heart, she simply blurted out the question without thinking.

The young monk nodded blankly. He didn't know who the soft master's wife was, but the man's name was indeed Gu Huan.

"What happened next? You built this temple?"

"No, later that man took advantage of my senior brothers' unpreparedness and killed them all. He also used some evil method to extract the life span and merits of their souls and sealed them in the statue of Eighteen Arhats. After that, he found People built this temple."

"I also died at that time. To be precise, my soul was torn out of my body. Maybe it was because I was weak. He didn't do anything to my soul. Instead, he found a dog that listened to him. The ghost of words took over my body and stayed in that temple."

"I can occasionally return to my body and take control of it, but I am too weak. As long as the ghost thoughts hidden in my body can squeeze me out anytime, anywhere, I can't get out of that temple, so I can only I can protect the golden bodies of my senior brothers. I received you when you came and then sent you to the door. I want to remind you that when you were about to leave, the ghost took over my body again. "

Another merit.

Ruanruan has heard more than once that the Holy Religion extracts merit from others. What does an organization that always likes to do crooked things need merit for? No matter what Ruanruan thinks, there is no way to guess their intentions even if she tries to break her head.

Positive things and negative things themselves cannot be mixed together.

What the magician needs more is evil, more dirty breath. For them, merit is not a tonic, but poison. "I would also like to thank you for cutting off the vitality of my physical body. Only in this way can I completely break away from the connection between my soul and my body and regain my freedom."

"Before you came, the souls of the senior brothers had already dissipated. I was powerless to save them. For me, there is nothing else to miss about this incident. The reason why I communicate with you in my dream is I wanted to give you a gift before I leave."

The little monk said, forming a seal with his hands covering his chest. Then the next second a golden ball of light appeared on his hand.

The light group emitted a strong light, shining brightly. This is the aura formed by the condensed merits.

The little monk held up the air ball with one hand, made a seal with the fingers of the other hand, and flicked the air ball gently.

Then countless lines stretched out from the air mass and wrapped around Ruanrou's whole body.

The power contained in the air mass poured into the body crazily. This not only gathered the power of merit, but also the power of many Taoist practices and Dharma.

The body that was originally cold to the bone slowly warmed up. It felt like the whole person was soaked in a warm pool, very comfortable.

Ruanruan liked the feeling now, and even narrowed her eyes comfortably.

Like a kitten being scratched on the chin by its owner. A long while.

Suddenly a picture appeared in her mind.

The current scene is somewhat similar to the image that suddenly flashed in my mind. In a flash, Ruanruan only captured a few fragments.

It was on a mountain, and there were many, many people sitting on the ground. Some of them were wearing ordinary clothes, some were wearing Taoist robes, and some were wearing monk's robes.

They were old and young, and looked different. They seemed to be Taoist priests from various sects.

The only thing they have in common is that they all glow with golden light.

And the golden light emanating from their bodies all flows in one direction.

Ruanruan didn't know what was in that direction, and he couldn't see it clearly.

But inexplicably, it is very similar to the scene at this moment. It gave her a sense of déjà vu.

"Okay, I don't know what the senior brothers noticed. Originally, they didn't have to go to pieces, but suddenly one day, they locked up all their merits and cultivation with their souls, and used their souls as sacrifices to cultivate these merits. Everything was mixed together and sent into my body. I think they wanted me to keep it, but I'm leaving soon. This thing is useless to me, so I'll leave it to you. "

"I also have a share in it. I hope it can help you." After the little monk finished speaking, he disappeared.

When Ruanruan opened her eyes, the surroundings were pitch black and there was nothing left.

She raised her hand and waved, trying to tentatively search for the little monk's soul. He twitched his nose, as if he was smelling the young monk's breath. After being stunned for a while, Ruanruan suddenly lowered his head, holding his mouth and started howling.

In the soul state, not a single tear can be shed. But she was really sad.

You said you will pay it back in your next life. Liar!
