I, Wang Ha, the Assassin of Three Red Warriors

enlightened one.

The so-called enlightened beings are human beings who have reached enlightenment.

In the Xingyue world, the most famous enlightened person is Sakyamuni, Sakyamuni.

He reached the other shore through self-enlightenment and became an enlightened being.

Although he is still alive, he is free from all troubles and founded Buddhism that can make people become enlightened.

Of course, Shakyamuni never said words such as 'this is the way to become a Buddha' or 'you can be saved by practicing Buddha'.

In his view, the method of becoming an enlightened being varies from person to person.

Buddhism believes that every human being has the potential to become a Buddha, and all human beings will eventually become enlightened beings.

This is the so-called appearance of sentient beings and Buddha of sentient beings.

Whether it is good or evil, whether it is sentient or not, it is all just the process of becoming an enlightened being.

Sakyamuni is a human being who has reached the truth, a sublime Buddha who lives in heaven, and an answerer who transcends the pain of life and reincarnation.

When it comes to whether there is a relationship between the Enlightened One and the Old Man of the Mountain, the two really met each other a long time ago.

Back then, when the man on the mountain reached the root and wanted to be recognized, it was the Enlightened One who gave him the test on behalf of the root.

Compared with the enlightened beings, the old man of the mountain is the destination reached through continuous practice.

Although the methods and methods are different, they still lead to the same goal in the end. They follow their own paths to explore the root cause and touch the truth.

The battle took place outside the world, and no one knew the final result, let alone the two parties involved.

However, after that battle, the Enlightened One left the Xingyue World, and the Mountain Man successfully obtained the recognition of the root.

But even looking back now, the old man of the mountain still thinks that the battle with the Enlightened One was one of the most difficult battles he has ever experienced in his life.

"Beyond birth and reincarnation..."

The old man of the mountain sent out because of St. Bailian's persistence, and recalled the various conversations he had with the Enlightened One.

Sakyamuni is a man of great wisdom and great ambition.

But he will never intervene in the decline of mankind, let alone help mankind, and has always held a cold-eyed attitude towards the crisis of human history and human reason.

Is this because the enlightened beings are cruel by nature?

Or is it because after enlightenment, the awakened person has moved away from the world and no longer has sympathy for mortals?

No, neither.

Rather, the Enlightened Ones have long understood that temporary relief cannot help mankind solve the crisis, and only by self-help can human beings truly continue.

The history of mankind should be written by oneself, the hymn of mankind should be sung by oneself, and the final trial of mankind should also be overcome by oneself.

Otherwise, human civilization will be nothing more than flowers in a greenhouse, and sooner or later it will come to an end in trials.

"Maybe, the Buddha can do it, and all sentient beings can do it after becoming a Buddha, but when will all beings be enlightened and become a Buddha?"

The old man on the mountain stared at the holy white lotus rushing towards him, and poured towards him with the intention of death as heavy as a prison abyss.

"Dharma is boundless, Almighty God."

He raised his hand to catch Sheng Bailian's indomitable fist, and stopped the charge with absolute crushing strength.

"No one can truly take others to the bliss of the West, and no one can really open the gate of heaven for the world."

Before Sheng Bailian retreated and changed his move, the old man of the mountain stepped forward, raised his fist and knocked on Sheng Bailian's head from top to bottom.

The old man of the mountain didn't use much strength, but the holy white lotus was directly smashed to the ground, and the glazed golden body condensed by the Buddha's light shattered at the touch, and disintegrated into fine golden light all over the sky.

"You, how long do you want to be obsessed with not realizing it?"

The battle started quickly and ended even faster, and the winner was decided in one move.

Sheng Bailian was lying on the ground, and was hit on the head by the old man of the mountain, and his eyes were blurred.

As she was dying, she vaguely saw the back of the old man on the mountain and heard his last words of teaching.

"The Diamond Sutra says: 'You should have no place to live and your heart should be born'. You, please do it yourself."

In the yard, by the gate.

Dongfeng Gu Qiuzi poked his head out to watch the whole process, and couldn't help but click his tongue slightly.

Although Shengbailian's strength is not as good as Yasaka Kanako's, he is one of the very few powerful people who have achieved success in practice. He did not expect to be sanctioned so easily by the old man of the mountain.

"It seems that Suzuki-sama kept his hand when he beat Kanako-sama last night."

Youyuko of Xixing Temple, who was standing aside, heard it, and dismantled the stage very bluntly.

"Keep your hands? Grandpa was there for a teaching demonstration last night. How can you teach if you just beat your opponent to the ground?"

Dongfenggu Qiuzi was a little ashamed after hearing this, because it was indeed because of this incident that Master Kanako was furious, and it turned out to be useless.

"Hey, I hope that Kanako-sama won't be worried about this."

The old man of the mountain returned to the yard, and all potential threats were wiped out. It is time to rest early tonight.

"Qiuzi, Youyouzi, remember to move that idiot back to the house, so as not to catch the cold overnight."

After some noise, the courtyard fell into silence again, and the entire Nishizawa Village was also immersed in this tranquility.

The Xixing Demon wandered among the cottages and checked the entire Xize Village to prevent any timid ones from slipping through the net.

After completing the patrol, Xixing Yao returned to the small courtyard and was attracted by a book that fell on the ground.

The book actually resonated with the Buddhist vows in it, which made Xixing Yao pick it up with a branch curiously.

The Westbound Demon doesn't know many words, but the name of the book automatically emerges from its mind——"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Fundamental Vow Sutra"?

The next day, in the world.

After more than a day of rectification, the exorcists were finally ready to return to Ping'an Jing.

Asai and Tsuchimikado bid farewell to Arhita at the gate of Luohita Mansion.

Thanks to this local famous family for providing them with information and help during this period of time.

"Asai-sama, Tsuchimikado-sama. If the two of you have a chance, please come to the humble house in the future."

In fact, Hida Al was not willing to let them go so early, because she still wanted to search for more anecdotes from these demon masters.

"Patriarch Painida, I will definitely visit again when I have the opportunity."

Both Asai and Tsuchimikado responded in this way, it is hard to say whether they can come, but it does not prevent them from being polite first.

"Okay, it's getting late and I should set off, so Patriarch Paitian doesn't have to see you off."

When the two left Luobaitian mansion.

Yakumo Lan also boarded her luxury car again, lying lazily on the cushion.

After a day's rest, her complexion is much better now, at least she has returned to normal on the surface.

Although the consumption of monster energy cannot be quickly recovered in a short period of time, her current strength is still sufficient to deal with emergencies.

"Hey, I've been away from Ping'an capital for so long, and I don't know if any major events happened there."

Looking up at the roof of the carport, Yakumo Lan fell into silence for a long time, closed her eyes again and immersed herself in recovery.

The mighty convoy filed out along the mountain road, and with the help of the spells of the onmyojis, they quickly left the world.

The place of the world that has been bustling for two days has once again returned to tranquility, and the villagers have also returned to the pace of life where they work at sunrise and rest at sunset.

The exorcists had already left, but one stayed behind.

A girl in a red and white priestess costume walks alone in the mountains.

She climbed up a hill with difficulty along an undeveloped hillside, wading through dense weeds and shrubs.

In order to build the shrine, Hakurei Shiori is currently investigating a suitable site.

Yes, Hakurei Shiori was the unlucky girl who was left to build a shrine, but she applied voluntarily.

"Hey, if it weren't for the lack of space in the world, I'd like to build the shrine there, and the money box will definitely be full by then!"

Looking back, Hakuli Shiori has a panoramic view of the entire world and the lost bamboo forest.

This place was by far the most satisfying for her.

"Well, here it is! In this way, I also have a shrine of my own, Lost Shrine!"

Chapter 517 'Tsuchimikado Seimei'

Outside Nishizawa Village.

Qiuzi Dongfenggu stopped and turned around, looking at the old man of the mountain and Youyouzi of Xixing Temple standing at the entrance of the village.

"Master Suzuki, younger sister Yuyuko, please stop."

The girl in the blue and white priestess costume spoke, leaned slightly and bowed to the two of them.

"I will go back and report to Kanako-sama and Suwako-sama right now."

After raising his head, Qiuzi Dongfenggu put on a serious face, and the anger that hadn't faded still glowed in his eyes.

"The incident this time is very serious and bad. I didn't expect there to be a demon village hidden so close to our shrine, and it hasn't been noticed after such a long time."

"For us, this is really the biggest dereliction of duty!"

Qiuzi Dongfenggu's words were so loud that Yuyuko Xixingsi couldn't help worrying about the other party's mental state.

"Sister Qiuzi, don't blame yourself too much. Nishizawa Village is not a believer in Moriya Shrine, is it?"

Xixing Temple Youyouzi's original intention was good, but Dongfenggu Qiuzi couldn't accept this kindness, she didn't want to extinguish this anger.

"They are indeed not followers of Kanako-sama, but they are still living human lives. I can't sit back and watch this happen again under the eyes of Moriya Shrine!"

The girl's eyes were on fire, and her heart was also on fire, and even thinking of the tragedy in Nishizawa Village, the flames would grow even higher.

Dongfeng Gu Qiuzi has a gentle and elegant temperament, and the feeling she brings to others is as gentle as spring breeze blowing on her face, making others seem to forget that she still has the identity of killing and resolutely killing demons.

"After I go back, I will advise Lord Kanako, and send the demon exorcist from the shrine to screen all the surrounding villages. With Lord Kanako's jealous nature, He will definitely agree and carry out this matter."

"Go, Qiuzi."

The old man of the mountain did not judge this decision. He just warned Dongfeng Gu Qiuzi as an elder.

"If what you think is important is also what all living beings need, then don't hesitate, just stick to your heart and let it go!"

Dongfeng Gu Qiuzi saluted solemnly again, much more formal than the previous farewell, with a big ninety-degree bow.

"Don't worry, Master Suzuki. Akiko, I will definitely keep your teachings in my heart for the rest of my life."

After watching Dongfenggu Qiuzi disappear on the mountain road, the old man of the mountain did not intend to stay in Nishizawa Village any longer.

"Let's go, Yuyuko. It's time for us to go too."

Yuyuko Saigyouji nodded obediently, and asked curiously:

"Grandpa, where are we going this time? Is it still a mountain village attacked by monsters like this?"

Although Youyuko thought she had figured out the pattern, how could she really see through the actions of the man of the mountain?

"No, this time to Heian-kyo."

An unexpected answer was thrown out, causing Yuyuko to be stunned for a while, and then let out a cheer of joy.

"Heian-kyo? Really? Good! We can have delicious food again!"

The girl in the blue kimono danced happily, dancing around the old man of the mountain, as if it was Chinese New Year.

"Grandpa, are we going to Ping'an capital this time for repairs? There shouldn't be any particularly strong big monsters in that big city, right? After all, it's a place where dignitaries gather and live, and it's also the base camp of monster extermination masters across the country."

Yuyuko guessed again, the girl felt that the old man of the mountain took her to Heianjing for a reward.

It seems that my performance during this period of time is not bad, so will I be able to relax and have a big meal when I go to Heianjing this time?

"Not always."

The old man of the mountain pretended not to see the girl's happy appearance, and he went to Heian capital for business, not for fun.

"For ordinary big monsters, Heian-kyo is indeed an extremely dangerous place. But there are always some special big monsters that can blend in the crowd without any flaws, and have not been discovered by the monster exterminators who patrol day and night."

Youyouzi was not depressed when she heard the words, anyway, it would be good to be coquettish and pester her grandpa. Could it be that grandpa could cruelly reject her?

But having determined the business, Youyouzi also learned to be smart this time, and wanted to see if he could deceive some information from the old man of the mountain.
