Jingyue had no spiritual power, so he could only verbally instruct him to forget the gong.
Yi Wang was very weak after the exercise. Although Jingyue had never experienced the feeling of going away, it would not feel good after thinking about it.
He spent more than a year conditioning his body for Yiwang, but Yiwang's meridians were also damaged. Jingyue couldn't refine the elixir now, so he could only take Yiwang to search for medicines, which is hard to say.
Fortunately, the two of them handed the letter of recommendation from the Cold Cloud Sect to a powerful loose cultivator. The other party was willing to fight the blame and helped them take away most of the hatred.
Even so, the two mortals are still walking on thin ice, and they must be careful at all times.
After four years, Yi Wang finally returned to his best condition and started to forge again.
After half a year, I forgot to exercise successfully.
Another day, I forgot to introduce Qi into my body.
During the period, Yi Wang also asked Jingyue why, as the founder of the Cold Cloud Sect, he had no cultivation.
Jing Yue didn't know how to answer, so he could only vaguely go over and say that he had some limitations when he came to give advice.
Yi Wang didn't ask, but said, "Then when will you be able to bring me back to the Cold Cloud Sect?"
Jing Yue can only say mysteriously, "When it's time to go, you will know."
At that time, Yi Wang only took a deep look at him, and since then he will no longer ask about the Cold Cloud Sect.
This time, Jingyue stayed in the illusion for more than ten years. He carefully taught him to forget. Although he did not have the name of master and apprentice, he had the reality of master and apprentice.
Now that Yi Wang has achieved great success in practicing Qi, he is only one opportunity away from establishing the foundation, and his cultivation can be considered to be on the right track. It stands to reason that Jing Yue's wish has been fulfilled, as long as Yi Wang goes to the Cold Cloud Sect to find another teacher of his own. But he was always worried, because he didn't know if Yi Wang would let go of his prejudice and stop being paranoid
Although they met many joys and sorrows along the way, they forgot to hide their true thoughts, neither questioning nor certain, even Jing Yue could not figure it out.
If he doesn't see it for a day and forgets to put it down, he can't put it down for a day.
On this day, the two came to a city west of Biji, where the terrain is remote and few cultivators appeared.
But before entering the city, Jing Yue faintly sensed something was wrong.
After entering the city, he saw that the prosperous town always had an aura of death, and the aura of death did not come from the evil spirits, but the land.
Yi Wang noticed his strangeness and asked, "Is there a situation?"
Jing Yue: "It seems that the lifespan here has been shortened a lot."
It is often said that the heaven and the earth live forever, but the earth does not refer to a certain piece of land, but to a world. In itself, the earth has a lifespan.
When all living beings on the land are dead and no longer revive, the land will become a dead place.
After forgetting Jingyue's reminder, they made a special observation and found that there were few green plants in the city, and the land was dry and cracked, but the rain and sunshine in the place they passed through should not be like this.
Jingyue: "This place should have a longevity of tens of thousands of years, but according to my observations, this land will die completely in a few thousand years at most."
Both of them felt strange and suspected that something had broken Feng Shui, but they walked all over the town and still didn't notice anything unusual.
At this time, the day was sinking, and Jing Yue planned to stay in the city for a day, and talk about it tomorrow.
Just when he was about to find an inn, he heard a bell rang. Immediately, he saw a businessman take out a forearm-high Buddha statue from the shop, while some pedestrians and hawkers on the road took out smaller Buddha statues from their arms and placed them all together. put on the ground.
They made the Buddha face west, knelt down with hula la, and kowtowed again and again.
Jing Yue and Yi Wang looked at each other and felt strange.
Now there are only a few people standing on the street, Jingyue curiously asked a middle-aged man, "This big brother, what are they doing?"
There was sarcasm in the man's eyes, but the sarcasm was not aimed at Jing Yue, he said, "You two are from other places, right?"
Jing Yue and Yi Wang nodded.
Man: "In Jingyang City, thousands of miles away from us, there is an eminent monk who is said to be the reincarnation of a Buddha. As long as he is devout and faithful, the Buddhist can satisfy all the wishes of the believers. Later, the ability of the eminent monk came to the city, and it was really effective. There are more and more people in the city who believe in him..."
Jingyue looked at the people who were still making a wish in a low voice after kowtowing, guessing in his heart, is there some cultivator who is playing tricks
He asked the man again, "Why doesn't the eldest brother worship, but don't you believe it?"
The man sneered a few times, said nothing, shook his head and left.
As soon as the middle-aged man left, an old man stood up nearby. He held the Buddha statue and walked to Jingyue's side, saying, "Don't worry about the two of you. People like him who don't believe in and don't respect Buddha's sons will have their retribution after death. Buddhism is really effective. The old lady of the Liu family was bedridden for six or seven years. Since her son believed in Buddhism, she gradually recovered. The daughter-in-law of Zhang family was infertile for ten years. Three years to hold two; Wang family's... "
The old man gave several examples in succession, and his eyes gradually became fanatical, "You have a destiny to come here, it means that the Buddha is guiding you and giving you the opportunity to serve him. If you are devout and faithful from now on, you will have future blessings."
Jing Yue just smiled, "So that's the case, thank you old man for letting me know."
The old man saw that his attitude was perfunctory, sighed regretfully, and stopped paying attention to them.
As soon as the old man left, some believers nearby came to look over, Jing Yue and Yi Wang were immediately alert, but those people did nothing after all.
Because of this, the two did not plan to stay in the city, but wanted to go to Jingyang City to have a look.
They have no goals, and naturally they can go wherever they want.
In the next few days, they walked through three cities in succession.
However, Jingyue found that the closer he got to Jingyang City, the shorter the local life expectancy. He was almost certain that the matter of the land life had a lot to do with the so-called "Buddha son".
After more than ten days, they finally came to Jingyang.
As soon as they entered the city, incense was everywhere. There were obviously more believers in the city than they had ever seen before. Almost every household believed in the Buddha, and the lifespan here was only 500 years.
That is to say, after five hundred years, there will be no more living things on this land, only dead things.
In the evening, the two found an inn to live in. The second inn was very enthusiastic. In fact, as long as it had nothing to do with the Buddha, the people here were no different from other towns.
The second shopkeeper: "Do you want to go back to the room to rest first, or to use some dishes first? We in Jingyang are backed by Qingcang Mountain, and the ingredients we use are wild goods from the mountains, which are the freshest."
Jing Yue: "Then serve some signature dishes."
The second shopkeeper: "Yes."
As soon as the two took their seats, they heard the familiar bell ringing. They had heard it many times along the way, and knew that the bell would ring once in the morning, middle and evening, reminding the believers that it was time for worship.
Sure enough, the shopkeeper held out a Buddha statue from under the counter, and the diners and travelers in the store followed suit.
Everyone knelt down, only Jing Yue and Yi Wang sat at the table, looking very abrupt.
"you two-"
At this moment, the big man at the next table suddenly roared, pointed at Jing Yue's table and said, "The time has come, why don't you two kneel? Could it be that you don't believe in Buddhism?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at him badly.
Jing Yue was stunned for a while. Although they met many believers along the way, and even if they were dissatisfied with their attitude, they never had anyone to criticize them face to face.
Seeing that Jingyue and Yiwang didn't respond, the big man said angrily, "Boy, what about you guys!"
Jingyue: "We just passed by Jingyang..."
The big man interrupted Jingyue directly, "This place is blessed by the Buddha, and since you entered Jingyang, you will also receive the blessing of the Buddha. How can you know that you will not repay it?"
The others all had a look of approval. Some people even got up from the ground and wanted to reach out to pull Jing Yue, but before he touched Jing Yue, he heard a muffled sound, and he was thrown to the door.
"you-"
Everyone in the store glared angrily at Yi Wang, Yi Wang sat steadily with an indifferent expression, "I kneel down on my knees, kneel down..." He glanced at Jing Yue, then stopped talking, "Anyway, if you believe in you, why do you have to force it? We believe too? Presumably the Buddha doesn't like forced believers."
These words made the big man even more angry, and he stood up suddenly, "You dare to be disrespectful to the Buddha?"
Yi Wang: "When did I become disrespectful? Could it be that everyone in the world should serve the Buddha, otherwise it would be disrespectful? Even the true Buddhas and Bodhisattvas would not be like this. Besides, can't you see that I am a member of the Taoist sect?"
The big man sneered, "I don't care who others believe, but you dare to come to Jingyang and appear in front of me, hum! If you don't kneel today, you have to kneel!"
He gestured with his eyes, and several big men around also stood up, trying to step forward and press Jing Yue and Yi Wang to the ground.
Some people in the inn showed sympathy, some gloated, and many more took it for granted.
"Boom—"
Jing Yue slammed the table, lowered his face, and stared straight at the big man.
Although he didn't open his mouth, the majesty exuded from his body was like a mountain and sea, which was daunting.
A Taoist ancestor's aura is fully open, even if he doesn't have enough power to match, his eyes are enough to fool people.
At least, these big men were fooled, and there was only one thought in their hearts - this is a master!
They looked at Forgotten, then looked at Jingyue, Xindao, the one who did it just now seemed to be not weak, but he was respectful to this Taoist. From this point of view, the ability of the Taoist is likely to be stronger!
Several big men did not dare to act rashly for the time being, but they were too embarrassed to stop there. The shopkeeper saw that they were in a dilemma, and persuaded with a wink: "Everyone, the auspicious time is coming, don't delay the worship of the Buddha..."
The most excited man before snorted coldly, and dropped the sentence "I don't know what to do", then knelt down again with his companions and bowed to the west.
They devoutly expressed their respect to the Buddha, and no one noticed that Jingyue secretly shook his hand - mortals are fragile, and their hands are numb when they pat the table...
He had practiced the "eye-killing" move just now many times, and with this move, he and Yi Wang successfully avoided a lot of trouble.
Jing Yue subconsciously glanced at Yi Wang, and the other party's eyes were also stained with a smile, softening his stern face a little.
But suddenly, Yiwang's eyes changed, and at the same time, the big man's screams sounded.
