Self-struggle starting from Douluo

In the late autumn of the sixteenth year of the Tianqi reign, an autumn rain fell on the Washan Mountain, triggering a mudslide and then a landslide. The world's largest stone statue of the Buddha collapsed, and most of the Lanke Temple was buried. The thousand-year-old temple was reduced to ruins, and the monks in the temple suffered heavy casualties...

This is the official statement.

Only a very few people know that the disaster that almost destroyed the Lanke Temple had nothing to do with nature, but was the result of Buddhism's attempt to suppress the daughter of Pluto. Unfortunately, Master Qishan and his disciples chose to stand on the opposite side.

The same choice is also available for academies.

In short, after this battle, Master Qishan passed away, the head of the Discipline Hall of the Hanging Temple died, the Buddhist sect's walking Qi Nian was seriously injured, the life sword of Cheng Ziqing of the Sword Pavilion was broken, and the monks of the Lan Ke Temple and representatives of various sects suffered heavy casualties...

As for the academy, Ning Que, who was improving his realm at an incredibly fast speed and was gradually being regarded as the academy's future worldly disciple, disappeared without a trace along with the daughter of Pluto and the black carriage.

The life and death of Qinghuan, the evil monk who belongs to both the academy and the Buddhist sect, is unknown. Although the Taoist sect, the Buddhist sect and the academy have tacitly not mentioned him, some people are secretly looking for Qinghuan's whereabouts.

In the eyes of the world, Qinghuan is still the evil monk whose cultivation was destroyed by Liu Bai's sword, but in the eyes of the top group of people, Qinghuan has become an existence that can affect the balance of forces among all parties.

It would be outrageous if we couldn't even confirm whether such a person was alive or dead!

……

Behind the academy, there is a thatched hut with air leaking on all sides. The thatch on the roof looks as golden and jade-like, and it is magnificent. It really feels like a waste of resources to have such precious thatch on such a leaky roof.

It was in such a thatched hut that the Master was admiring chrysanthemums, eating crabs and drinking rice wine.

There are no chrysanthemums in the mountain behind the academy. The chrysanthemums that the master admired are far away in the mountains somewhere south of Chang'an City, but this does not prevent the master from appreciating them.

All of Haotian’s rules cannot restrict or restrain him, let alone the mere spatial distance?
"The chessboard is another world, another dimension. The speed of time is controlled by the person who presides over the chessboard. If the chessboard is destroyed, Ning Que and Sang Sang will naturally perish as well."

The Master picked up the slightly warm wine flask, put it to his lips and took a sip, then said, "But I don't think anyone can destroy the chessboard. You know, it's a life-saving thing that Buddha left for the monks in the Hanging Temple.

The key lies in the speed of time flow in the chessboard. Xiao Qishan is dead, and without him as the host, the two of them should not stay in the chessboard for long. It depends on when they can come out. "

A pair of white hands reached out to the teacher, pulled off a crab leg, put it in the mouth and chewed it. After biting the crab shell into pieces, he lowered his head to peel the crab meat.

With his bald forehead shining, Qing Huan ate crab meat and said, "The problem is that the chessboard has also fallen into the chessboard world and is trapped in a loop."

Jun Mo was kneeling beside the Master, using a set of extremely complicated tools to help him remove the crab meat. Hearing this, he said, "Isn't this an endless loop?"

The Master shook his head and said, "Since it is a cycle, it will naturally continue. How can it be a fatal disaster? The chessboard itself will break this disaster. I just don't know how long Qishan has set it to last."

After Qing Huan finished eating the crab legs, he reached out to the crab meat on the plate that Jun Mo had taken out, but the master slapped him away and said, "You little monk, you eat and drink for free here all day long, is that right?"

Qing Huan said aggrievedly: "I have nowhere to go now, so I have to come to you and let you take care of me?"

Jun Mo asked curiously, "Why didn't Junior Brother show up at Lan Ke Temple?"

Qing Huan shook his head and said, "My connection with Lan Ke Temple is only because of Master Qi Shan. Now that Master Qi Shan is gone, my connection with Lan Ke Temple is naturally gone too."

The Master stroked his beard and said, "Why don't you go back to your own home?"

Qinghuan was silent for a moment and shook his head.

The Master knew the origin of Qinghuan, or rather, many people who were interested knew the true origin of Qinghuan.

He came from the Qingjing Temple in Yuelun Kingdom and had never called Master Qishan "Master". Master Qishan had never explicitly accepted him as a disciple. His real master was called Guanlian.

Ever since Qinghuan was sent to Master Qishan by Guanlian when he was a child, he has never been back, so many people assume that Qinghuan has forgotten Qingjing Temple and Guanlian.

This is also the reason why Qingjing Mosque has not been disturbed.

Qinghuan didn't want to destroy this tranquility.

Jun Mo said, "The Xiling Temple will announce it to the world in three days. The edict has been sent over. It states that Sangsang is the daughter of Hades, and orders all Haotian believers in the world to hunt her down and kill her. It also issued a portrait, but the edict did not mention the academy, nor did it mention Junior Brother...

And the eldest brother has been looking for..."

As they were talking, Qinghuan and the Master raised their heads at the same time and looked towards the north.

In the far northern wilderness, the two saw a black carriage suddenly appear, rushing forward with a violent momentum.

Qing Huan retracted his gaze and asked, "Master, what are you going to do?"

The Master held the wine glass, his eyes uncertain, and said, "Let me think about it again... let me think about it again..." Qing Huan said, "Buddha and devil are on the same side, light and darkness are one, I figured out this principle a long time ago, I wonder if you have anything else to think about..."

The Master said dissatisfiedly: "How can you easily make a decision without careful consideration of this matter?"

Qing Huan thought for a moment and said, "I'm too lazy to think, I just follow my heart... Then I'll go join in the fun?"

The Master scolded him, "You are a monk who has nothing in his heart. Why are you joining in the fun? Come drink with me!"

Qing Huan said in disbelief: "You actually let a monk drink? Absolutely...absolutely...Then I only drink one glass?"

Jun Mo smiled and placed a cup in front of Qing Huan and poured wine into it.

Qing Huan picked it up and smelled it, then drank it all in one gulp, smacked his lips, and said, "Another glass."

……

Ning Que and Sang Sang were driving a carriage. They were at Lan Ke Temple one moment, facing Liu Baitian's sword in the sky, and appeared in the wasteland the next moment.

I had no idea that several years had passed.

But they knew that they were teleported directly from Wa Mountain at the southernmost tip of the continent to Xihuang at the northernmost tip of the continent.

Western Wilderness, where the Hanging Temple is located.

So they started to move south, killing a monk who was blocking the way along the way, and then killed a lot of grassland cavalry all the way south... Naturally, the news could not be concealed.

The Hanging Temple sent people, and Xiling also sent people, all of whom were looking for Ning Que and the Pluto's daughter. The fastest man in the world was also looking for them.

……

The wasteland was very large, so Ning Que and his companions were relatively safe. Although they killed many people along the way, they finally entered the Yuelun Kingdom and quietly hid in a city called "Chaoyang".

The name of the city is "Chaoyang", but the whole city is gloomy and lifeless, except for Buddhist temples that can be seen everywhere.

It is the capital of Yuelun Kingdom, just like Chang'an to Tang Kingdom.

The beautiful white pagodas on the temple walls and the small Buddhist shrines on the roadsides that can be seen everywhere in the city are inlaid with many precious gems, which form a sharp contrast with the simple and tattered clothes and low thatched houses of the people in the city.

Everyone from the king to the peddlers in Yuelun Kingdom believes in Buddhism. Around every city in Yuelun Kingdom, there are temples of all sizes, which are attached to the city and supported by the people in the city.

Chaoyang City, as the capital, is naturally no exception. There are forty-seven temples surrounding Chaoyang City. In order to support these forty-seven temples, Chaoyang City’s tax revenue is ten times that of Chang’an!
Baita Temple is naturally the leader among them, or it can be said that all the temples in the entire Yuelun Kingdom were built by monks from Baita Temple.

It is somewhat similar to the feudal system, except that the fiefdoms are not given to princes, but to monks.

Among the temples surrounding Chaoyang City, the least conspicuous one is called Qingjing Temple.

The abbot of Qingjing Mosque is called Guanlian.

The Qingjing Mosque is very small, so the distribution it receives is naturally very little, but it is more than enough to support a few monks.

Naihe Guanlian likes to pick up orphans in Chaoyang City. She has liked this since a long time ago, so there are many mouths waiting to feed in Qingjing Temple, which makes Qingjing Temple the poorest temple in the entire Yuelun Kingdom.

Qingjing Mosque does not have a beautiful white pagoda. It only has a large hall enshrining Buddha statues and five rooms in the backyard. After years of repairs, it looks shaky.

There is no magnificent Buddhist shrine in Qingjing Mosque, just a small grid made of rotten wood.

There are no precious gems on the wall, because Qingjing Mosque has no wall at all. The original wall was demolished to build an extra house.

In terms of performance, Qingjing Temple is the worst among all the temples in Yuelun Kingdom.

This also caused Qingjing Temple to be incompatible with Yuelun Kingdom. According to previous rules, the abbot Guanlian should have been stripped of his monk status long ago.

After all, Guanlian is not a remarkable person, and his cultivation has remained at the "perception" realm for decades. He probably will not be able to break through the virtual realm and enter the real realm in this lifetime.

But for some reason, Guanlian has always been the abbot of Qingjing Mosque.

Guanlian once picked up a child in Chaoyang City and gave him the Buddhist name Qingku. However, the child was always disobedient and changed his own Buddhist name without permission.

Changed to "Qing Huan". (End of this chapter)
