Black Myth: Journey to the West: Simulate becoming an immortal!

Chapter 89 Meeting the Zen Master
"I, I'm trying to get rid of..."

Chen Xi showed a look of joy, but before he finished speaking, he heard a sneer.

"Longzi, don't dream about this."

"We are one. How can you get rid of us?"

The mocking voice of the Dragon King could be heard faintly at this moment.

Chen Xi looked up and found that the Dragon King and the Buddha who broke the precepts were still standing on his left and right.

"The ghost lingers!"

Chen Xi snorted coldly, his disappointment hard to hide in his tone.

Although I never thought it would be so easy to get rid of these two obstacles.

But at this moment, these two guys appeared in front of him as usual, and his face still turned black.

For a moment, anger was faintly stirring, and the vague hostility began to grow again.

Faintly, it seemed that Chen Xi was about to transform into a three-headed, six-armed being again.

Until this moment, Chen Xi realized that he had not become normal...

It was simply because he was conscious and had no anger in his heart that the vision did not manifest.

"Dong dong dong..."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Chen Xi collected his thoughts, listened to the noise outside the door, and frowned.

Is this the same words again?

"Excuse me, sir, how was your rest?"

"The masters of the temple on the mountain have already come down the mountain."

"My father is hosting a banquet. Please move over and discuss exorcising the demon together!"

Sure enough, the sound of voices came from outside the door.

"Oh?"

Chen Xi's eyebrows jumped, and he thought of something and stood up suddenly.

What a beautiful Futu Mountain!

The methods used by Zen Master Wuchao are truly mysterious and unfathomable.

If he guessed correctly, could it be that the time he was in had moved forward a few minutes?
Judging from the meaning of these words, it seems that it happened to be the eve of the group of monks going down the mountain to exorcise demons and monsters, and many of them were killed or injured.

If this is the case, doesn't it mean that there is a good chance that he can see Zen Master Wuchao among these monks!

One is born, the second is cooked.

With his previous experience, Chen Xi was not confused at this moment and agreed without thinking.

"We have an important matter at hand and cannot afford to delay. Please go ahead, Master Yan."

"Once I have tidied my appearance, I will come to the banquet immediately to discuss the matter of exorcising the demon with my fellow Taoists."

The person outside the door responded and turned and left.

Chen Xi shook the toad spirit on the ground, and after it woke up sleepily, he quickly gave it a few instructions.

"You idiot, you can sleep!"

"In that case, you should stay in your room for the next few days and have a good rest."

"Remember to close the door, and don't open it no matter who comes!"

The toad spirit nodded as if he understood, and opened his mouth to say something.

However, Chen Xi had already left without looking back.

The situation at this moment is quite sensitive. If outsiders see the appearance of the Toad Spirit, it might cause trouble.

Chen Xi pondered over his thoughts and tightened his brocade robes.

He walked out of the room and found himself in an inn.

The banquet place mentioned by Yuyu seemed to be a restaurant not far away.

Yesterday, when he was wandering around Yanjia Town, he saw the wreckage of these two places.

I never thought that I would be able to see them intact today.

Chen Xi shook his head and suppressed the strange feeling in his heart.

Walking from the inn to the restaurant, there were many people coming and going on the road, and it was quite lively and bustling.

Chen Xi, who was in the middle of it, couldn't help but look a little dazed.

If it weren’t for the Dragon King and the Buddha who broke the precepts, they would still be by my side.

He almost mistakenly believed that he had finally left that evil and corrupt world.

"It's a pity that they are all fake."

Chen Xi murmured, his eyes flashing with envy.

He looked at the pedestrians and found that although they looked a little sad, they were generally in good spirits.

From this we can see that the demons at this time were not yet so rampant.

Soon, Chen Xi arrived at the restaurant.

Now he has no demonic characteristics at all.

Wearing a brocade cassock, just standing there, he looked like an enlightened monk.

"Master, hurry up, please go upstairs~"

The waiter greeted him with a smile and led him to the private room upstairs.

In the private room, besides the Yan family father and son, there was also a group of monks in gray robes.

Chen Xi immediately spotted one of them, an old Zen master wearing a brown monk's robe.

Although the old Zen master has an old face, he is full of energy and has an extraordinary bearing.

The disciples following behind him looked a little thin, but each of them had a strong and vigorous spirit.

It is obvious that this group of monks are not just for show, they at least have some real skills!
Perhaps because of Chen Xi, he no longer looked ferocious.

When Yanxingpi saw him, his eyes could not stop wandering back and forth on Jinlan's robes.

However, he did not forget the etiquette. He quickly stood up to greet him warmly and introduced Chen Xi to the masters.

"Master Wuchao, this master is an honored guest in my house."

"He has a compassionate heart, and this time he is willing to work with all the masters to defeat the demons!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the monks looked over, put their hands together, and chanted the Buddha's name.

"Amitabha."

Zen Master Wuchao smiled kindly and nodded at Chen Xi.

When Chen Xi saw this situation, he became confused.

Why is this Zen Master Wuchao different from what he imagined?

Seeing him, a Buddhist at this time, he just chanted a Buddhist name?

Chen Xi remained calm and nodded, not in a hurry to do anything.

After he sat down at the banquet, he used his clairvoyance to take a look at the old Zen master.

With the help of the clairvoyance, it turned out that the old Zen master was not a demon, but a serious person!

And that’s not all, there’s also Buddha’s light surrounding his body, making him look like a highly accomplished monk!
However, the so-called enlightened monk is not good enough in front of Chen Xi.

The Buddha's light surrounding his body is not even as bright as his, not to mention that of the Buddha who broke the precepts and had the Buddha's name.

It has to be said that the old Zen master's appearance really disappointed him.

But if you think about it carefully, what Pi said is true.

Zen Master Wuchao became a person of great supernatural powers after experiencing this catastrophe and realizing the boundless Buddhist teachings. This can be applied to the current situation.
Chen Xi calmed down and was unusually calm without being impatient, even forgetting himself.

Perhaps everyone was present, Yanxingpi stood up with a smile and began to talk to the masters about the cause of the demon's chaos.

According to him, the demon appeared four days ago.

None of the villagers had actually seen what the demon looked like. They only vaguely sensed malicious intent and saw dark shadows in their nightmares at night.

And every time at this time, someone would die tragically, either suddenly on the street or tragically at home.

For a while, in the entire Yanjia Town, few villagers dared to go out at night.

Even at home, I keep the doors and windows closed and dare not go to sleep.

Chen Xi listened and kept it in mind.

Then, after hearing Yan Xingpi's story, Zen Master Wuchao nodded to his disciples.

The disciples understood what he meant and took out stacks of Buddhist scriptures.

When Chen Xi saw the Buddhist scriptures, his eyes suddenly lit up.

clairvoyance!
I saw golden light flashing above the stacks of Buddhist scriptures, and a lotus flower appeared on them!
All of a sudden, Chen Xi's breathing became heavier.

Zen Master Wuchao handed the Buddhist scriptures to Yanxingpi and his son, and then spoke in a serious voice.

"Amitabha, benefactor, these are the Buddhist scriptures that I copied overnight after I learned about what happened down the mountain."

"When I entered the town earlier, I took my disciples for a walk around the town, but I didn't find any demonic aura."

"If it is really a demon, it is probably the kind that is good at hiding its whereabouts and has no physical form."

"It is difficult to prevent such monsters even if you seal the windows and doors."

"Please quickly distribute this scripture to all the villagers and have them stick on the doors and windows of their homes. This may help ward off evil spirits."

Zen Master Wuchao instructed Yanxingpi and then looked at the pedestrians outside the restaurant. He showed compassion, put his hands together, and said, "Demons harm people, and no one should die because of this."

"Tonight, the village chief asked all villagers to close their doors and windows and not go out."

"We chant sutras all day and subdue demons at night..."

When Yanxingpi heard this, his face showed joy.

He thanked me repeatedly, took the scripture, and stroked it from time to time. It looked like he was darling it!
When Chen Xi saw this scene, his eyes lit up with surprise.

Yesterday he strolled around the town and saw only ruins everywhere, but he didn't see any scriptures.

Now it seems that Zen Master Wuchao and his disciples do have some real skills.

If those monsters were really gossipy, they shouldn't all be killed here.

It seems that this problem is mostly caused by Village Chief Yan...

No one knows what the village chief Yan did to cause the Zen master and his disciples to fail in their attempt to subdue the devil and instead die tragically.

But for Chen Xi, these are not important matters at the moment.

"Master, wait a minute. Could you lend me these scriptures?"

"During my time of cultivation, I have never seen such a profound scripture. It is really difficult for me to control myself."

Chen Xi suppressed the excitement in his tone and turned to look at Zen Master Wuchao.

Zen Master Wuchao seemed not to care when he heard this.

He smiled slightly, chanted a Buddhist name, and handed a piece of scripture to Chen Xi.

Chen Xi quickly took the scripture and suddenly felt that the distracting thoughts and demonic obstacles in his mind showed signs of fading away.

When he felt this situation, his eyes suddenly lit up!
But the next moment, after he saw the content of the scripture clearly, he was greatly disappointed.

Although the scripture is good, it looks quite extraordinary.

However, there was still only that short sentence he heard in Gao Laozhuang in the past.

Zen Master Wuchao saw that Chen Xi seemed a little disappointed, so he clasped his hands together, smiled and began to explain.

"My friend, this scripture of mine was passed down by a great monk who had attained enlightenment."

“If one’s mind is in a state of enlightenment, one can understand the true meaning without explanation. Otherwise, it is useless to hear it.”

When Zen Master Wuchao said this, he couldn't help but shook his head with regret.

"It's a pity that even I myself have not yet completed my practice, so I was unable to copy it down completely."

"I copied this scripture myself, and it also has the effect of purifying the heart."

"If you don't mind, you can accept it. It may be helpful."

"When you succeed in subduing the demon, you can come to the temple to have a chat if you have the chance."

"How much you can learn from it by then is all due to fate."

Zen Master Wuchao's words were full of kindness.

Such people will be rare in the future evil world.

“Thank you, Master.”

Chen Xi's expression was complicated. He obviously had not expected that this Zen Master Wuchao would be so straightforward.

He carefully put away the scriptures and thanked Zen Master Wuchao.

Now, the Zen Master Wuchao seems to be very normal, without the crazy behavior he would later on.

With his telepathic communication, Zen Master Wuchao never told a single lie.

This made him realize that at least the Zen master in front of him had no ill intentions.

As for whether the Zen Master Wuchao of Mount Futu had any ill intentions, he had no idea.

He also didn't know what kind of riddle the Zen Master Wuchao on Mount Futu was playing with him.
After the banquet, the discussion was roughly completed.

Zen Master Wuchao asked for a quiet room, where he recited scriptures, cleared his mind and eliminated desires in preparation for exorcising demons at night.

Chen Xi only watched for a while and realized that they seemed to really intend to recite from morning to night.

He suddenly felt bored, so he used his magical powers and quietly followed the Yan father and son to the Yan Mansion.

The Yan Mansion has high walls and a large courtyard, and looks quite luxurious.

As soon as Chen Xi arrived at Yan's house, he heard a quarrel coming from inside.

"Father! Now all the masters on the mountain have come down to subdue the demons and monsters."

"I just can't bear to sit back and watch, so I want to do my part!"

"Bullshit! You just stay here tonight and don't go anywhere."

"If you die, who will inherit my business?"

"I started from scratch and accumulated such a huge fortune. It was not easy!"

"You evil boy, are you determined to go against me? Are you going to follow the monk to your death?"

"Someone! Lock this insane rebellious boy in the cellar!"

"I want to see where he can go tonight!"

Chen Xi stood under the courtyard wall, listening from the corner and stroking his chin.

With his clairvoyance, he clearly saw the words being dragged away.

Yanxingpi ordered his servants to paste a large number of scriptures on the numerous doors and windows of his house.

Even the chicken coop and dog kennel in the mansion were covered with a scripture.

All of a sudden, there were only less than ten scriptures left.

However, even so, Yanxingpi had no intention of leaving these scriptures to the folks in the town.

Instead, he asked his servants to deliver all these scriptures to the wealthy families in the town.

Seeing this, Chen Xi thought about it carefully and it seemed that those buildings had not suffered much damage yesterday.

"What a wicked person!"

Chen Xi's face darkened. Until this moment, he still didn't know why so many people died in the town!
He forced himself to suppress the growing anger in his heart.

Then I heard that inside the mansion, the servants were whispering with Yan Xingpi.

"master"

"Didn't the Zen master say that these scriptures should be posted in every household?"

"Now that our family has used so many scriptures, there must be a lot of people in this town."

Yanxingpi sneered, and was completely different from the person he was in the restaurant.

"Hard work, hard work. How much hard work did I put in to make this town prosperous?"

"Now that I have been the village chief for decades, some people are dissatisfied with me!"

"If we don't let them suffer this time, they will suffer from these demons."

"How could they remember the monks on the mountain?"

Yanxingpi said this with a smile on his face.

"If they don't suffer a little, how will they understand who is really good to them?"

"Ask yourself, have I ever made things more difficult for you servants?"

"Don't you also live within these walls, under my protection?"

"Aren't you guys going to use this old man's face to clean up the trouble you guys have caused?"

After hearing this, the servant laughed awkwardly and praised the master for being wise.

Chen Xi's face turned slightly cold, and his brows became increasingly ferocious.

He was able to understand everyone's thoughts and words, and everything Pi thought and wanted was heard by him.

"I am outside the village, but I have hired a group of Taoist priests to come to the village at a high price."

"When all the monks on the mountain are dead and the demons are not killed, these idiots will truly know who they can rely on..."

"Alas, I have given so much to these fools, why can't they understand my painstaking efforts?"

Chen Xi was overwhelmed with emotions after hearing this and he wished he could just beat the old man to death.

His words and actions are worse than those of a monster, even though he is a human being!

He has done evil and harmed others, but he feels no guilt for it and instead thinks it is justified.

Unexpectedly, before the Zen Master and his companions fell to the demons, they were defeated by human hearts...

I think that tonight, the Zen master and others will fail in their plan to subdue the demon because of his words and actions.

Judging from the subsequent situation in Yanjia Village, it is obvious that Yan Xingpi's clever plan did not work out.

Not to mention providing a safety net, the entire town was almost sent away!

Chen Xi's thoughts were racing through his mind, and his murderous intent was growing stronger.

At this moment, he heard an extremely excited voice again.

"What the master did was not very decent, but his method was really clever!"

"It's just delivering some scriptures. Hurry up, there's still plenty of time."

"Hehe, I can just go find Yanzhi to have some sex and talk to her about this."

"I heard that she has been hooking up with some guys from outside the village recently."

"Tsk tsk, I have to explain to her the consequences of tonight. She might get scared and stay in my room tonight..."
