Invincibility starts from wild boar

Chapter 224 Chapter ①⑧Zero Middle-Earth China
Three years later.

Middle-earth China.

Zhongtu Shenzhou, the most extensive of the five continents, is located in the middle of the five continents, almost ten times the size of the other four states, surrounded by the sea, with Beiju Luzhou in the north, Xiniuhezhou in the west, and Dongdong in the east. Shengshenzhou, to the south is Nanfangbuzhou.

Middle-earth China can be divided into five small continents, namely Central Continent, Eastern Continent, Southern Continent, Northern Continent, and Western Continent.

The birthplace of the human race, with outstanding people, the country of mortals is like a crucian carp crossing the river. There are countless people who practice Taoism. Taoism is prosperous, but the influence of Buddhism is weak.

Therefore, Western Buddhism has always wanted to spread Buddhism in China and expand its influence. In the past hundred years, monks have poured into China to preach Buddhism, claiming that there is a pure land in the West, and believing in Buddhism can lead to bliss, and the results are quite fruitful.

This also led to the establishment of a large number of temples in Xizhou, a land of mortals near Xiniu Hezhou. Most of the kings converted to Buddhism, and there were more monks than Taoists.

In Nanzhou, in a certain nameless mountain with beautiful scenery, its peak is occasionally filled with evil spirits, and evil winds are raging.

According to legend, three years ago, a pig demon came here, it was so ferocious, no one dared to approach it within a hundred miles, no matter it was flying in the sky or walking on the road, it was swallowed by this monster, and no one survived.

However, this monster can be regarded as a principled monster, and never harms mortals, which also causes nearby mortals to have no fear of this monster. Even under the protection of the pig monster, this place is actually the safest place for thousands of miles, and there has never been any monsters. Cholera happened.

With the gradual infiltration of the Buddhist influence, a young traveling monk came here on this day. He looked only seventeen or eighteen years old. Smile in the spring breeze.

He holds a golden and wooden Zen staff and wears a white cassock. Although it is worn out, it is extremely clean and does not touch a trace of ordinary dust.

This little monk walks through forests and streams, in various villages and towns, preaches Buddhism, and overcomes people's sufferings. All the beasts he encounters automatically retreat, and even demons are influenced by him. He doesn't suffer from cholera. Able to transmigrate, we can see the profundity of this little monk's Dharma.

On this day, the little monk came to a mortal village under the Pig Demon Mountain.

In front of a farmhouse, the little monk clasped his hands together and said kindly:
"Namo Amitabha, is there anyone? The poor monk named Wu Zang passed by the expensive land and wanted to ask the almsgiver to make it easy for him to eat some fast food to satisfy his hunger."

"Squeak!" With a sound, the wooden door opened from the inside, and an old man poked his head out and looked at the monk outside the door. Seeing that the young monk had a handsome face and did not look like any villain, he turned sideways and held the young monk Welcome into the house.

"It turned out that it was the arrival of the mage, which really made this dilapidated house full of splendor."

The old man smiled and said to him.

"The old man has won the award, but the poor monk is just an ordinary monk, and he cannot be called a mage."

Monk Wuzang clasped his hands together, and with a modest and gentle smile on his face, he replied politely.

"It's right, it's right, the mage is an eminent monk. My son went to the market in the city, met people like the mage, listened to the lectures of those mages, and benefited a lot. My son said all day long that he would worship those mages as his teachers. , but they don’t have Buddha roots, so people don’t accept them.”

"Don't worry, old man. In this life, if you accumulate virtue and do good deeds, as long as you have a Buddha in your heart, you will be a disciple of Buddhism. The Buddha will be rewarded with blessings. Those who are greatly blessed will reach bliss after death and will not suffer in hell."

Monk Wuzang gave a word of comfort with a smile, and preached the Dharma by the way.

"A mage is a mage, even what he said makes sense, but the old man is too old to understand it, but he just thinks it makes sense, and the old man doesn't expect what will happen after death, as long as he is safe and sound, free from disaster and worry-free You will be content with the rest of your life.”

The old man explained with a smile, and handed Wuzang a cup of tea.

"The mage must be thirsty all the way, so drink some water to moisten your throat."

"Thank you, old man."

Monk Wuzang thanked him politely, and drank the tea in his cup in small sips.

"Old man, do you have some food left? The poor monk has been traveling all the way, and I feel a little hungry. I came here to ask the old man for some fast food. I don't know if it is convenient for the old man."

Wu Zang asked politely, without any discomfort on his face.

"There is still some food left from yesterday, but it's just some simple food. If the mage doesn't dislike it, the old man can serve it to feed the mage."

"Don't dislike it, don't dislike it, the old man is polite, if there is a stutter, the poor monk will be satisfied."

"The mage, please wait a moment, the old man will go to fill it."

As soon as the words fell, the old man turned around and walked into the side room. After a while, when he came out again, he had already brought a bowl of coarse grains in his hand, and put it in front of Wuzang.

"Master, please have a meal."

"Thank you, old man."

Wuzang thanked him gratefully.

After the meal, I saw Wu Zang asking:
"Old man, the poor monk has traveled all the way, but there are no traces of wild animals in this mountain forest. People live and work in peace and contentment, unlike other places where there are many wolves and demons are rampant. Why?"

"Oh, so the mage asked about this. This matter started three years ago. Our place was not peaceful three years ago. There are many wolves in the mountains. There are also monsters eating people in the depths of the mountains. , From time to time, they change out to kidnap people and animals, making people panic.

However, since three years ago, a good monster came from the depths of the mountain, saying that it was good but not good. The good monster ate all the nearby wild beasts and evil monsters. Don't even dare to stroll around here. "

The old man explained spitting, and couldn't help gesticulating with his hands when he was happy.

"I heard that people who went hunting in the mountains were lucky enough to see it once, and they said it was a pig demon. Its body, to say the least, is this big."

The old man stretched out his hands and gestured casually, and suddenly felt that the body shape was wrong, so he explained again;
"No, it's at least as big as a house, and the pork is very strong. I've never seen such a big pig monster. At least it weighs a thousand catties. Anyway, it can't be stewed in a pot."

After hearing the old man's explanation, Monk Wuzang's eyes lit up, and he asked curiously:
"Oh, didn't the pig demon eat the hunter?"

"Cannibalism? No, no, no, didn't the old man say that just now? That's a good demon, who never eats people. He is the patron saint of this hundred miles around. There is no one in the nearby village who does not respect the pig god. Since After Lord Pig God comes, we will be much calmer within a hundred miles, and we don’t even have to be afraid to walk at night.”

The old man explained to Monk Wuzang excitedly.

"There is such a thing, monsters don't eat people, it's an anecdote."

Monk Wuzang said to himself with surprised eyes.

"No, it's not a monster, it's a pig god."

The old man explained solemnly.

"That's wrong. A monster is a monster. Even if it doesn't eat people, it's still a monster. Didn't the old man say that the pig monster ate all the creatures in a radius of a hundred miles? So, this pig monster is still a monster, not a human." , eating living beings is doing evil, since encountering them, the poor monk should see and see, if he can get rid of it, and persuade him to do good, this is not a great merit."

Hearing this, the old man frowned, with a hint of displeasure on his face.

"Mage, why are you so stubborn, don't harm people, and protect the peace of one side, isn't it a good monster, what's wrong with eating wild animals, this old man occasionally kills some chicks and hares for tooth sacrifices, if Lord Pig God listens to your words, Maybe Lord Pig God swallowed you in one gulp, that's all, that's all, you go! Today I will act as if I have never received you, so I can take care of myself."

The old man seemed a little angry, waved his hand impatiently and issued the order to evict the guests, and threw Wuzang out of the cabin.

"I also ask the old man to tell the place where the pig demon practiced. The poor monk would be very grateful."

Standing at the door, Wu Zang was not angry at being kicked out, but still asked in a pleasant manner.

"Hey, you monk is really stubborn, you deserve to be eaten by Lord Pig God, it's on the highest mountain, you go! Don't blame your old age for being eaten."

The old man pointed to a mountain peak surrounded by black air in the distance and said, and closed the wooden door with a "bang".

"Thank you!"
