Shi Yuan, who did not turn around, still gave people tremendous pressure. At this time, Fang Jie simply let go. He walked back a few steps and sat down on the rock. He touched his waist and found that the deerskin pouch was still there, so he took out He stuffed the pipe and lit the tobacco, took a deep breath and said nothing.
Seeing that he was silent after a while, Shi Yuan turned around and looked at him with some doubts.
"Do you think delaying time is useful? Even if your three friends can handle the things in the cave, how long will it take for them to realize that you are missing? How long will it take to find you? And how long will it take for me to kill you?"
Fang Jie blew out a smoke ring and smiled, "I didn't say anything because I wasn't afraid of death, nor was it because I was procrastinating for some time, but because I couldn't stand your pretense. Turning your back on me is because you think you're too strong for me. You're not a threat, are you? So you have to show your superiority. I'm ignoring you, it's as simple as that."
Such an answer stunned Shi Yuan, he looked at Fang Jie in disbelief and asked, "Are you so childish?"
"In this situation, I can't seem to do anything other than despise your pretentiousness. This has nothing to do with childishness. To put it bluntly, I just want to see you unhappy."
Fang Jie took a puff of cigarette and spit it out very coolly: "Since you want to talk to me, and when I know you won't kill me, it's better not to elevate your status so high first. You come to me Naturally, it's not that I have something to ask you, even though I'm relatively weak, it's better to put my identity at a higher level when talking."
Shi Yuan really didn't expect Fang Jie to have such an attitude, so he was a little angry. A person with a high cultivation base has nothing to do with a mild temper. If anyone thinks that a high cultivation base equals a good temper, it is a big mistake. In fact, higher status people tend to be moody. Naturally, Xie knew how high Shi Yuan's status was in the Buddhist sect, and this kind of people who were lifted up to the sky often couldn't see the slightest bit of disobedience.
Shi Yuan took a step forward, as if stepping in the rhythm gap of Fang Jie's heartbeat.
"Are you sure I dare not kill you?"
Fang Jie curled his lips: "I said, if you want to talk about it, you should put down your identity first and then talk about it. There are not many people in this world that you dare not kill, but since you didn't kill me, it means that you didn't kill me." Reason. I know this, so you don't need to put on airs."
"It's not so much that you don't dare to kill me, it's better to say that you are still reluctant to kill me now."
Fang Jie shrugged his shoulders: "Although I don't know the reason."
Shi Yuan's expression changed, and he suddenly smiled: "Did you just want to force me to kill you?"
Fang Jie didn't answer.
Shi Yuan sat cross-legged across from Fang Jie and asked, "If you want to force me to kill you, don't you have any regrets?"
Fang Jie smiled, but still didn't answer.
"You think that if you fall into my hands, you will have too many possibilities to die, so you would rather provoke me and be killed by me directly, right? Since I guessed your thoughts, I will naturally not get angry again."
Shi Yuan said with a smile.
He smiled, Fang Jie was already happy.
Only fools want to die.
"It's not that I don't dare to kill you, as you said, I really don't want to kill you."
Shi Yuan's eyes looked at Fang Jie carefully, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became brighter and brighter: "Luo Yao really lied to our Buddhist sect. I said at the beginning that he is an unbelievable person. He is in his twenties. I should have killed him directly years ago, so there wouldn't be many troubles later."
Hearing these words, Fang Jie's heart suddenly brightened... He knew that Luo Yao had been destroyed by someone many years ago, but he was lucky enough not to die. Not only that, he also reached the highest level of cultivation in the world by relying on his useless body. place. Hearing what Shi Yuan said, it was obvious that Luo Yao's injury was caused by people from the Buddhist sect.
"What's the relationship between me and Luo Yao?"
Fang asked.
Shi Yuan was startled, glanced at him and asked curiously: "Why don't you ask me, what is your relationship with my Buddhist sect?"
Fang Jie said: "I have been hunted down by your Buddhist sect for more than ten years, what is the relationship?"
Shi Yuan smiled and said: "What relationship in this world is permanent? For example, those courtiers in the Sui Dynasty who speak loyal words now, who knows if they will become rebels who touched the foundation of the Sui Dynasty in a few years? Another example is that your people in the Sui Dynasty all hated my Buddhist sect. Who knows if you will become the most loyal believer of King Ming in a few decades? Enemies can become friends in front of interests, and friends can also become enemies in front of interests. Father and son , siblings, and so on."
Fang Jie didn't want to listen to his nonsense, so he simply asked directly: "Since you came to me, you must want to tell me something, so can you keep it secret?"
Shi Yuan asked curiously, "Why are you so calm?"
Fang Jie replied seriously: "Because I don't have the strength to kill you."
Shi Yuan nodded: "This is the truth."
He paused and continued: "That's right, people from my Buddhist sect have indeed been chasing you for more than ten years, but that's because you don't know your identity and don't understand my Buddhist sect. Of course, the reason why you were The pursuit is directly related to the fact that Luo Yao lied to us. If he told us that you have such a perfect physique, how could someone chase you? At this time, you are already sitting in the Dalun Temple of Daxue Mountain Beneath the lotus throne on the lectern platform, listen to King Ming explaining scriptures and explaining doubts to you alone."
He said with some emotion in his tone: "When you walk barefoot, what you are stepping on are flower petals scattered by the people who admire you. When you sit down, the one who is willing to make a futon is a beautiful and pure young girl..."
Fang Jie didn't pay attention to the following words, because Shi Yuan's words made him laugh, and he actually lost his mind at such a serious moment, and he was so serious and outrageous...
"Wait, did you mean the meat futon? That's really a good thing..."
…
…
Shi Yuan naturally didn't know what a meat futon was, and he didn't understand why Fang Jie laughed.
"It seems that you don't know anything about Buddhism... Now your mind is filled with unnecessary hatred, lingering in your mind like a fly, but you ignore that one because of this fly." Baoshan."
Fang Jie asked with a smile: "There are flies circling around the treasure mountain, and it won't go anywhere. Or...the treasure mountain you mentioned is different from the treasure mountain in my concept? That's disgusting..."
Shi Yuan frowned slightly: "Why are you still trying to provoke me?"
Fang Jie said: "Do you know how much revenge a person has?"
Shi Yuan was silent, and sighed after a long time: "I said that the so-called hatred may be worthless in front of the benefits you are about to get. This is not a difficult decision, just like you are in a stall selling breakfast To eat, and to eat a fly in your rice bowl and make you angry, and you refuse to accept a lot of gold and silver from the peddler as compensation... This is very unwise, very foolish."
Fang Jie said: "It's not so easy to change the concept secretly. First of all, what I am facing is not a job with flies, but more than ten years of hunting, how many times I have survived, and how many people have died for me. If it is just People who don’t accept compensation because of a fly are really stupid. But if it’s because of human life, it has nothing to do with profit.”
Shi Yuan was puzzled: "What's the difference between those humble beings and flies?"
Fang Jie laughed because of his anger: "Is this the equality of all living beings you preach?"
Shi Yuan shook his head: "I am puzzled by your thoughts. This is a very simple matter. I have made it very clear that you were almost killed because of Luo Yao's lie back then. Even if your hatred is so strong that it melts Otherwise, you should hate Luo Yao, not Fozong."
Fang Jie said nothing, just looked at Shi Yuan coldly.
Shi Yuan sighed and said: "It seems that you still have too many things you don't understand. In this case, I can only tell you from the beginning."
He raised his head and looked at the sky, and said with some regret: "I never thought that one day I would sit in front of a person and reason patiently..."
"Let's start with why I killed you in the first place."
He sat up straight and put his hands on his knees: "You should know what kind of status the Buddhist sect has in the West. Not only Meng Yuan, but also many small countries in the Western Regions believe in King Ming. The kings of those countries also have Buddha In the Western world, King Ming is the only and eternal god. King Ming’s words can move the world, there is no doubt in the Western world.”
"But... this world has its laws, and gods cannot change them. For example, the change of seasons in spring, summer, autumn and winter, water flowing to low places and smoke floating to high places, birds flying in the sky, and fish swimming in rivers. Who cares about these things? There is no way to change it. Because this is a rule made by heaven, no one can break it."
"So... even though King Ming is a god in the western world, he will slowly age. At this time, King Ming will use his own unique method to choose his successor. And because King Ming stands too high, the tall It almost touched the sky. So Tian came up with a way to stop King Ming's inheritance, that is... King Ming appointed not one person, but several or even a dozen who met the conditions, and King Ming would choose the best person from among these people. The correct one is designated as the successor, and the cultivation base of his own magic power is passed on to him with the secret method, and these people... are all called Buddha disciples."
After hearing these words, Fang Xie's face couldn't help but change.
When he was in Chang'an City, he had doubts in this regard. When he knew the method of inheritance of the Buddhist sect, he doubted whether he was a disciple of the Buddha. And there is not only one Buddha child, when one of them is designated as the successor by King Ming, the other Buddha children will naturally not be able to survive.
Fang Jie never raised his doubts to anyone, but he was always worried that this matter would become a reality. And now, Shi Yuan appears to be doing just that.
"King Ming will send people to look for Buddha children when he has a premonition that his time is coming. With King Ming's magic power, it can often be predicted twenty years in advance. The most basic requirement for a Buddha child is to be on the same day as King Ming. Born at one hour, because King Ming's birthday is very special, so there are not many people born on this day. Secondly, it must be a boy. The most important thing is that this child must be a natural fetus of King Ming."
Fang Xie couldn't help but ask: "What is Ming Wang's fetus?"
Shi Yuan said: "It is a natural incorruptible vajra... But as I said just now, because God is jealous of King Ming, he will always create some fake vajra bodies in an attempt to hinder the inheritance of King Ming. Therefore, the selection of Buddhist disciples is extremely strict. , each one must pass the inspection of Tianzun, and then select the best ones and send them to Daxue Mountain for inspection by King Ming himself."
Fang Jie couldn't help retorting: "I'm not!"
"That's because your dantian was sealed by someone with despicable means when you were just born. He tried to hide it from us with such means, and he did hide it from us. That's why you are regarded as an unqualified Buddha. Being hunted down. It has to be said that Luo Yao's methods are really clever, so that we think you are not a qualified Buddhist disciple."
"Why did he do that!"
Fang Jie suppressed the surge in his heart, and asked in a hoarse voice.
"I'll tell you about that later."
Shi Yuan waved his hand: "Because you are just an unqualified person, although no real master was dispatched to hunt you down, no one thought that a person like you, who should be considered insignificant, could survive More than ten years. In addition, there have been some changes in the Buddhist sect in the past ten years, and the great practitioners rarely go out, so you survived. But isn't this just a predestined fate? It is because your physique is so perfect that even the sky is reluctant Destroy, so you end up going the way you should."
