Chapter 196 Catch the fat monk and the old Taoist priest
Maitreya?
The old Taoist didn't react at all, he just stared at the pot-bellied monk in front of him with calm eyes.
Lu Xuan didn't know much about the fault lines in modern history. In the Spring and Autumn Period, he had spent all his time preaching and providing disaster relief. All he knew about was about the immortals and gods of the Five Heavens, not Buddhism.
Lu Niangrong on the side did not think too much, thinking it was just a coincidence, and her eyes were still staring at the increasing number of thugs from the three chambers of commerce in all directions.
Only Zhao Zheng felt a chill coming from behind.
He doesn't pay homage to Buddha, but after all he is a certain future monarch appointed by the Qin Dynasty. He knows more or less about it. He is not as ignorant as Lu Niangrong, and he understands the current reputation and respect of his adopted father-in-law.
Therefore, Zhao Zheng understood that the pot-bellied monk in front of him who called himself Maitreya was probably the Buddha of Buddhism!
Maitreya Buddha! !
The Buddha is equivalent to the emperor of heaven. He stands above the realm of all heavens and is a supreme and majestic existence at the level of Daluo!
Zhao Zheng's scalp suddenly exploded.
At this time, the people on the entire long street had lost their traces and figures. They were replaced by thugs and monks from three merchants, walking out of the streets and alleys in dense numbers.
"Things are in trouble."
The hairs on Lu Niangrong’s body stood up one by one, and she said in a deep voice:
"Brother Zhao, you don't want me to get you involved. These people are from the three big chambers of commerce. They must be coming for me. Wait until you leave first. I'll stop them. As long as the noise is too big, I, the people from Lu's chamber of commerce, will You will notice it!”
Zhao Zheng hugged the ignorant Lu Jianxue, a wry smile flashed across his face, trouble?
What kind of trouble can these so-called little guys from the Chamber of Commerce be? ?
real trouble.
He subconsciously looked at the fat monk with a big belly. The fat monk had a bright smile on his face, and he looked solemn, and he was happy when he was pure.
Zhao Zheng swallowed.
At the same time, Lu Xuan hung his hands in his sleeves, narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at the fat monk in front of him, and said slowly:
"How can an ordinary creature be considered a bloody disaster to a poor Taoist?"
The fat monk was playing with one hundred and eight huge ancient Buddhist beads, smiling broadly:
"However, it may not be the case. It all depends on the poor monk's thoughts and the donor's thoughts."
"Why do you say this?"
"Taoism and Buddhism come from the same origin. The poor monk observes that the donor has a predestined relationship with me. It is better to take refuge in Buddhism. Donor, don't worry. There are supreme beings fighting in the sky and in the sky. They have no time to care about the human world. There is also a treasure handkerchief covering the clouds and the sun. Who, look If you don’t get here, you can’t see here.”
"Your Excellency, you have a good idea. Why, stand up for Xiji Tiantian?"
"No, no, the donor is an [undetermined number], he is destined to me, and he is destined to be my Buddha!"
The two of them were talking in a nonchalant manner, Zhao Zheng was sweating profusely, and Lu Niangrong, who was looking around vigilantly, was a little confused.
What were Director Lu and the fat monk talking about? ?
She didn't quite understand, but she just tensed up her body, like a tigress ready to attack, and she didn't know when she had a long sword lingering in the glistening water.
Lu Niangrong said in a deep voice:
"Director Lu, don't talk to that fat monk anymore. He is probably also from those chambers of commerce. I'm afraid the three major chambers of commerce have already been prepared to attack at the same time."
After a pause, she stroked the sword gently, played the sound of the sword, and said:
"I'm here to stop the enemy. Chief Lu, take Brother Zhao and Xiao Jianxue away. With me here, you will be fine!"
Zhao Zheng was frightened, but when he heard Lu Niangrong's words, he looked at the proud little lady in front of him, but he couldn't laugh or cry anymore.
Naturally, Lu Xuan did not respond to Lu Niangrong, but silently stared at the fat monk in front of him. His body was full of virtues, and his body contained a thousand fortunes.
The fat monk played with the beads faster, and said quietly:
"Donor, you don't have to think about delaying time. My treasure handkerchief is quite impressive. Those three people were attracted to it and couldn't notice the seal of the handkerchief for ten and a half months. So, donor, please think about it slowly."
Lu Xuan didn't answer, his mind was spinning a thousand times. Although his expression did not change, there was already thunder in his chest.
According to what the monk in front of me said, the three masters seemed to be playing games and fighting with others. Their attention was attracted and they had no time to pay attention to this place. Is it another Taoist fruit?
Is the monk in front of me a Supreme Being at the level of the [Heavens], or is he a [Great Luo] who is eternally certified and can walk through time and history?
Or.
[Above Daluo], the Supreme Being who occupies the position of Daoguo?
Lu Xuan's heart palpitated.
As time passed, the atmosphere on the long street gradually became more solemn, but the monks did not make any move, they were just watching eagerly.
Lu Niangrong held a long sword with glistening water in her hands, her temples were wet with sweat, and her expression was extremely serious.
The Lu family, the Bai family, the Duanmu family and the Fan family are collectively known as the four major chambers of commerce in the world.
The Lu family has Lu Buwei as their respected leader, the Bai family has Bai Gui as their leader, the Fan family has Fan Li as their respected leader, and the Duanmu family is led by Duanmu Ci. All four can be called powerful, either true immortals, or their methods are comparable to those of true immortals. !
In the past, there was only minor friction with each other, and overt and covert fighting was limited to the lower levels. All four parties had a basic tacit understanding.
But now, these three families are attacking him, completely tearing the last layer of veil into pieces!
Lu Niangrong's mind was spinning, and her forehead was sweating a little more.
Inferring from this, if nothing unexpected happens, I am afraid that this change is not limited to Jiangling. Besides Jiangling, these three families may also attack the Lu family and their father together!
Thinking about it, Lu Niangrong clenched the sword in her hand.
At the same time, people from the three major chambers of commerce completely filled the long street inside and outside, but they immediately made way for each other, and the three old people walked side by side.
The old man at the head was leaning on a cane, his eyelids were drooped, and his voice was neither loud nor loud, neither salty nor bland:
"Miss Lu, I have my order, please come with us."
"Where to go?" Lu Niangrong held the sword tightly and concentrated on her posture.
"Of course I'm going to meet Lu Buwei." The leader of the Bai family's elders smiled: "Lü Buwei is indeed good. He fought with me, the ancestor of the Bai family and the ancestor of the Fan family, but he was not at a disadvantage at all."
After a pause, he smiled again:
"It's just a pity that the Duanmu family is traveling around the country with Confucius. Otherwise, Lu Buwei can be suppressed easily. But it doesn't matter. Who doesn't know that Miss Lu is the apple of Lu Buwei's eye. With you here, Lu Buwei can come if he wants to. Will you give up your resistance?"
"You're dreaming!"
Lu Niangrong's eyes flashed with dangerous brilliance, and she crossed her sword across her shoulder: "You want to threaten my father with me? It's absolutely impossible!"
"Then it's up to Miss Lu."
The elder of Bai's Chamber of Commerce stroked his beard and smiled, and glanced at the other people. He was slightly surprised by the two fat monks and the old Taoist who seemed to be no one else, and then looked at the young man holding a little girl on the side who seemed to be trembling.
Lu Niangrong noticed his gaze and her expression darkened:
"What's going on here has nothing to do with others. Don't get involved innocently. It's up to you and me to decide!"
After the words fell, Elder Bai smiled and said nothing, while Elder Fan beside him said with a half-smile:
"Oh? It seems that Miss Lu is someone she cares about. If Miss Lu goes with us honestly, she will not involve them. Otherwise,"
The elder of the Duanmu clan took over the words and said with a smile:
"If not, with Miss Lu's cultivation level that is almost that of an earthly immortal, it is natural that there will be accidental injuries during a fight."
Lu Niangrong's lips trembled slightly, showing her extremely unhappy mood, and she gritted her teeth and said:
"The ancestor of the Duanmu family was also one of Confucius's ten wise men. Aren't you afraid of being blamed by Zigong for doing such dirty things?"
The ancestor of the Duanmu family, Duanmu Ci, whose courtesy name was Zigong, was a favorite disciple of Confucius and ranked among the ten sages together with Yan Hui and others.
The elder of the Duanmu clan smiled and said:
"My ancestors stopped asking about matters of the Chamber of Commerce a long time ago, so I don't need Miss Lu to worry about it."
Lu Niangrong clenched the hilt of the sword and was in a dilemma. She thought to herself that she might not have a chance to kill, but when she was alone at that time,
But Director Lu and Brother Zhao were on the side. Although she vaguely knew that Director Lu and Brother Zhao were also quite good, the most important thing was that Xiao Jianxue
Once the killing starts, what if it affects Xiao Jianxue?
Lu Niangrong bit her lip tightly.
On the side, Zhao Zheng's expression was extremely complicated, both scary and weird, and he felt depressed.
What are these so-called chambers of commerce doing?
He wanted to speak, but he didn't dare to speak. After all, a Buddha was standing beside him, confronting his adopted father-in-law!
at the same time,
The old Taoist didn't seem to notice the tense situation on the long street. He raised his eyelids, looked at the fat monk in front of him, and said as if no one was watching:
"Your Excellency seems to be very successful. If I really convert to Buddhism, will you be able to bear the burden?"
The fat monk played with one hundred and eight huge Buddhist beads in one hand, patted his huge belly with the other hand, and said with a smile as if no one else was watching:
"Well, don't bother the donor. After taking refuge in me, the donor can continue to be your Taoist priest. Buddhism and Taoism have the same origin."
As he spoke, the fat monk yawned and said with a smile:
"So, has the donor thought about it? Has he made a decision?"
Lu Xuan's heart beat rapidly, and he noticed that the twelve hundred human fortunes in his body felt stagnant between ups and downs.
You know, I didn't feel this way when I deposed Xiji Tianting. In other words.
The fat monk in front of me is probably higher than the West Extreme Heavenly Court.
Also, those who dare to intervene in the Supreme Lord's battle and dare to oppose the three masters are probably the only ones who are also [Dao Fruit]!
Now things really got a little troublesome. A Taoist practitioner came in person and stood in front of him, wanting to convert himself.
Lu Xuan has heard about Buddhist methods. Once you take refuge, you may be said to be very happy, but you may also say you will perish forever!
Thinking about it, he remained calm and said:
"Didn't you say that the poor Taoist should consider it for ten and a half months? How about five days?"
Maitreya Buddha's eyes turned into slits when he smiled:
"Five days? When the donor said this, he was very confident. Could it be that the donor thought he had any other means to convert? And this means requires five days?"
As he spoke, the smile on his face became even brighter:
"Then let the poor monk see it, let the poor monk see it"
After the words fell, Lu Xuan saw a long river of time rising and falling in the eyes of the fat monk in front of him! !
Above the long river of time, the figure of the fat monk sat upright, playing with time at will and looking at this period of time! !
this method
Lu Xuan felt a chill behind him. Although he didn't know if it was a Dao Fruit, it was at least a [Da Luo]!
Everything moves only in an instant.
The years in Maitreya Buddha's eyes disappeared, and he sighed:
"There's nothing unusual. Or is it because the donor is an [unknown number], so I can't see it? Five days."
He smiled and said:
"Okay, I'll give the benefactor five days, but I also ask the benefactor to leave with me and leave this spring and autumn, how about that?"
Lu Xuan's scalp tightened. If he really left, there would be nothing he could do!
The three masters have not noticed what happened here. If the fat monk in front of them is really a majestic Taoist, they have only one solution and one way out!
But if we leave the ancient times and these years, the only solution will be lost!
With his thoughts spinning a thousand times, Lu Xuan raised his head and looked directly at the fat monk:
"If I don't leave, what do you want?"
As he spoke, his mind communicated with the Jade Glaze Lamp and the Sky-Bearing Fishing Drum, as well as with the Qingping Sword hanging high above his mind, with sweat hidden behind his back.
"If the donor doesn't leave." Before Maitreya Buddha could finish his words, suddenly.
"Silence!"
Not far away, Elder Bai glanced at the old Taoist priest and the fat monk with dissatisfaction. This Buddha was a bit ridiculous, too indifferent!
He snorted coldly, glanced at the old Taoist and the monk, and then his eyes fell on Lu Niangrong again:
"It seems that it is difficult to be kind today, and there will definitely be weapons. Miss Lu, you are almost an immortal. If you really want to leave, we can't keep you, but"
A sneer appeared on Elder Bai's face:
'We can keep others'
Lu Niangrong's expression changed slightly, while Elder Bai waved his hand, pointed at Zhao Zheng, Lu Xuan and the fat monk, and ordered:
"Suppress these people and bind them with divine chains, and let's see if our Miss Lu, who is known for her kindness, can survive on her own!"
