The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 988
"This is the former Longjia Village!"

Looking over the old woman to the abandoned village behind him, Pei Wende's voice was full of emotion.

In the blink of an eye, 30 years have passed, and this once prosperous village has become dilapidated ruins.

Now, apart from himself, probably only the "client" Mao Yao Miaomiao still remembers everything that happened here.

"Join my camp and work with me to prevent more tragedies like this from happening!"

When saying these words, Pei Wende's eyes stared straight at the old woman, as if seeing the high-spirited lynx through her.

"..."

Facing Pei Wende's sincere invitation, the old woman fell silent.

Compared with the disdain and contempt at the beginning, the old woman's complicated mood can no longer be described in simple words.

As the past memories are uncovered, the old woman's inner humanity begins to move around, which makes it difficult for her who has always been proud to accept.

However, I have to admit that compared to persuasion and persuasion with sweet words, Pei Wende's simple and sincere invitation hit her heart more.

This is the method that Pei Wende and Xiaoqing have been together for many years to deal with this kind of cold and arrogant monster.

Monsters like this type generally have enough wisdom, and they don't need you to state too many opinions and ideas to her, they will think of a reasonable answer by themselves.

What Pei Wende needs to do is to break their "pretend" and concisely state a certain established result to them.

"Why do you want my help?"

After a brief silence, the old woman finally spoke.

"You have recovered a lot of monsters along the way, it should be a lot without me, right?"

The old woman never overestimated her own strength, let alone felt that she had to solve the current situation by herself.

So now she is very curious, what is the reason for Pei Wende's inexplicable persistence?
"One less of you is indeed a lot, but one more of you won't be much, will it?"

Hearing this, Pei Wende couldn't help but raised his eyebrows, and then asked back.

"Then let me put it another way, why do you think I will work hard for you?"

"What's going to happen in Tanzhou has nothing to do with me. Why should I get involved for the sake of those selfish humans?"

As soon as the old woman said this, Pei Wende immediately opened his mouth again to correct some mistakes in the other party's statement.

"No, this is not just a human problem, but also a problem for all the creatures living in the land of Tanzhou."

"I can't hide, Weishan can't hide, you can't hide either..."

When he said this, Pei Wende's voice paused for a moment before continuing.

"You are very similar to me, or very similar to me back then."

"But the difference is that I have always been taken care of by Master, so I haven't really fallen into evil ways."

"And you are like my opposite. Driven by the resentment and anger in your heart, you finally turned into a demon spirit who caused disaster."

Along with Pei Wende's narration, a warm Buddha's light gradually appeared in the back of his mind.

"Actually, I don't have any obsession with you, and I don't care whether you killed innocent people indiscriminately back then."

"However, I can see that the old monk has always been brooding about your affairs..."

In fact, it was only after he achieved the other shore that Pei Wende realized that there was still such a little-known knot in his master's heart.

"The old monk has passed away now, and I don't want him to have any regrets in this world."

"If you have this idea, I can accept you as a disciple on behalf of the old monk."

"Anyway, my cheap senior brother came to the door with the help of a 'Nirvana Sutra', and took the initiative to worship the old monk as his teacher."

"There is also Zhang Chusheng, the old monk also saw me preaching to him, so he accepted him as a disciple for me."

In fact, thinking about it carefully, apart from Pei Wende, the personal disciple who has been with him all the time, the other two disciples accepted by Chan Master Lingyou are more or less accidental.

Needless to say, monk Huiji, before worshiping Zen Master Lingyou, he practiced the Dharma Body of Dizang.

Only because she was used to the vicissitudes of human life, Hui Ji felt that even if she became a Buddha herself, it would be of no avail, so she broke the precepts and re-cultivated, and then came to Weishan to pay homage to the master under the guidance of Lingyou Chan Master.

The same is true for Zhang Chusheng. In order to prolong his life, Pei Wende directly made him take a relic from an eminent monk, which accidentally aroused his Buddhist affinity.

In order to prevent Zhang Chusheng from going astray, Chan Master Lingyou stepped in and accepted this disciple instead of Pei Wende.

"Becoming a disciple of a Zen master?"

I have to admit that Pei Wende's remarks really moved the old woman a bit.

Not to mention worshiping Zen Master Lingyou, it is equivalent to having the two strongest backers in the world, Huiji and Fahai.

The 30 years of careful teaching by Zen master Lingyou alone gave the old woman a kind of respect and gratitude from the bottom of her heart for this old monk.

"If the Zen master is still alive, I will definitely worship under him without hesitation..."

A bright smile suddenly appeared on her face, and the old woman who was hunched over suddenly straightened her back and said in a firm tone.

"It's a pity that the Zen master has passed away now, and I have no reason to worship under him."

This time it was the old woman's turn to pause for a moment, then changed the subject.

"However, I agreed to your previous invitation!"

While speaking, the face and figure of the old woman changed at an astonishing speed, as if she was returning to her youthful appearance little by little.

She has a beautiful face but is ferocious, petite but full of wildness...

Most importantly, as the old woman turned back into the former cat demon Miao Miao, her mentality also changed drastically.

"As you said earlier, this catastrophe is not yours alone."

"Although I'm not interested in these things, I still have to live in this area for a long time in the future..."

"It's not what I want to see my 'home' messed up by a bunch of weird guys."

Mao Yao, who had regained his fighting spirit, spoke firmly, but his expression was surprisingly relaxed.

This scene fell into the eyes of Hu Rui'er and the other little foxes, but they had another completely different idea.

It wasn't until this time that Hu Rui'er realized why the monsters, including the man-eating tree demon, were so easily persuaded by Pei Wende.

It's not that those monsters don't have their own ego and selfishness, it can only be said that Pei Wende is too powerful.

Even a stubborn guy like the cat monster Miaomiao can be influenced, so why is it surprising that other monsters are persuaded?
