"That's bullshit! Killing that golden-haired beast has made me a sinner. No wonder I often hear people complaining about 'God is blind.' I used to think they were just blaming others, but it turns out they're right!"
He then asked, “How will this karma affect me?”
Senior Sister Gu frowned, as if she was apologetic.
This should have been Kongtong Mountain's fault, a hidden danger caused by Gong's great-grandfather, a former disciple of Kongtong Mountain.
Now, an outsider has been asked to take the blame and bear the brunt of the backlash...
She said deeply:
"Bad luck follows your life circumstances. The higher you rise, the more severe the backlash against your good fortune. If you were an ordinary person, you would be plagued by illness, and your business, academic, and official careers would be unsuccessful.
But you have already left the realm of ordinary people and begun to move closer to the path of cultivation. Then your pursuit of the Tao will become increasingly difficult, and any thresholds and bottlenecks will be magnified many times over! "
“…” Chu Wuji blinked.
Is it becoming difficult to practice Buddhism?
That's okay. I was just shocked. It was a false alarm. I thought it was something serious.
Chapter 196: I can endure hardship the most!
When Chu Wuji decided to attack the beast, he did not worry about the backlash of good fortune.
Of course he was worried, but he had weighed the pros and cons. If he was the only one who suffered misfortune, but his mother and aunt were not affected, they could help deal with the problem.
Through this move, Chu Wuji can completely take over the Lihuo Mountains and get rid of the General Mountain that is blocking the mountain's luck. After that, he can use the Lihuo Mountains to practice. This is a real benefit!
But if the two snake spirit elders were allowed to take action, they would be unlucky and get into trouble, and Chu Wuzhi would not be able to help.
The current result was exactly what he had envisioned, and even better than he had imagined. Physical refinement was his true strength.
Chu Wuji gathered his thoughts, glanced at the instigator, and said to the female cultivator from Kongtong Mountain, "This golden-haired beast is seriously injured. I'll take his life later. What do you think, Fairy Senior?"
Senior Sister Gu was puzzled by his calmness and tentatively replied, "Of course you can. You have taken the brunt of the good fortune, and I didn't contribute much. There is no reason for me to interfere. You can handle it as you wish."
......He is really easy to talk to.
Chu Wuji was complaining in his heart when he heard the roar and struggle of the wandering corpse. He thought of the girl in the Gong family ancestral hall.
"Senior Fairy, Gong Li... is that young girl. Is there any hope for her? This body has become a wandering corpse. Is there any chance of helping her?"
Bai Sujin followed her son's words and tied up the wandering corpse.
Only after getting closer did they discover that this wandering corpse could actually cast spells. From time to time, it would condense an aura like a skull, but it was bitten to pieces by the white python, preventing this wandering corpse with a green face and fangs from interfering with the battle.
"With the help of the Golden Haired Hound's refining, this wandering corpse has begun to develop spiritual intelligence. Although it is a corpse, it can once again carry the soul. Erasing the wandering corpse's spiritual intelligence should allow the girl to return..."
The eldest senior sister of Kongtong Mountain showed a conflicted and embarrassed look. When the disciples of the immortal family encountered these zombie creatures, the first choice was to destroy them, especially the zombies of this extraordinary realm. Ordinary wild cultivators might fall if they were not careful.
Now listening to what Chu Wuzhi said, it is obvious that he wants to help the girl "resurrect" and get a new life as a zombie.
There are similar corpse cultivators in the demonic world, but it is inappropriate for the immortal forces to do such a thing. However, Chu Wuji helped Kongtong Mountain to solve a big problem...
This golden-haired hyena seems honest, but every few years he will sneak out to seek freedom at the end of the year. It seems that he is only interested in devouring monsters, but when he passes by human villages, he just steps over them. He doesn't care about the death of people. When he is hungry, he will suck a few lives into his stomach without any concern.
No matter how you look at it, this mess still has to be blamed on Kongtong Mountain.
Senior Sister Gu has a lot of say in the sect, second only to the head, slightly higher than the elders, and has the power to make decisions. She thought for a moment and said:
"I can help. Kongtong Mountain owes you a favor, after all. But there's a condition. After I help the girl's ghost return to this wandering corpse, I must take her back to Kongtong Mountain to take care of her, lest she lose her ferocity and hurt others."
Chu Wuji frowned. Could it be that if Sister Gong came back to life through borrowing a corpse, the price would be that she would be suppressed by the immortal sect in the future?
It would be better to reincarnate earlier and save yourself from all the torture!
She had already lived a very tiring life, and now she had to suffer this kind of pain after death. Chu Wuji didn't want to hurt her like this.
Bai Sujin didn't look up to confirm her son's expression. Just from his sudden silence, she knew what he was thinking.
The white snake licked the back of Chu Wuji's hand to comfort him, and said:
"Wu Ji, if that little girl really wants to stay in this world, wandering corpses is a good starting point for her. Her vicious instincts will gradually subside, and she can still maintain her self-awareness. In the future, when she reaches the state of 'unbending bones', she will be able to move freely and unaffected by the corpse."
Senior Sister Gu also nodded and said:
"That's right. In the future, when this girl reaches the state of 'unbending bones' and possesses the ability to control her mind, Kongtong Mountain will no longer restrict her. But it still depends on her own wishes. We can't show kindness to her and make decisions for her. Miss Gong may not want to exist as a zombie."
"There is no time to lose, let's go ask her now!" Chu Wuji made a prompt decision.
Mrs. Baihu also came over at this time, and Xiaotu followed her, jumping and skipping beside her, looking around curiously at the situation here with her clear big eyes.
Kongtong Mountain had had contact with this White Tiger Mountain Lord and knew that she had no habit of committing evil or killing indiscriminately, so they treated her as a friendly fellow cultivator.
The few of them talked for a few minutes, exchanged information, and then returned to the Gong family ancestral hall together.
At this time, the cold night was coming to an end and the sky was about to brighten. The Gong family had witnessed a night of terror with their own eyes and had not yet recovered from their shock.
Even if he saw two white tigers flying down to his own ancestral hall, he seemed to not know how to be surprised.
The younger tribesmen's gaze swept over the several gods, and finally fell on the white-haired young man holding the sword in one hand.
Yesterday evening, everyone thought he was an unknown wild cultivator, but it turned out that he was the most ruthless one, slashing at the Nian beast with a knife!
On the horizon, there seemed to be several shadows appearing - they were reinforcements from Kongtong Mountain. Among them were two old men with immortal looks, who looked like elders. Two disciples, Qiao Liang and Qian Bao, also followed.
Chu Wuji thought to himself, "I thought Kongtong Mountain would also mobilize all its forces. It seems that only the Shenxiao Sect likes to engage in group fights?"
The two elders discovered that the extremely blessed beast was dead, and they wanted to know what happened last night. However, Senior Sister Gu just replied, "Be patient, we'll talk later," and then focused on what Chu Wuji had entrusted them with.
She came to the ghost girl, explained the general situation, and then asked:
"I know you're still confused, but you need to make a decision. Do you want to live again as a zombie? You'll have to endure for many years and cultivate until you reach a breakthrough before you can regain your freedom."
Grandpa Gong knew that he was a sinner and had no room to speak, but he had seen this descendant of his family suffer for so many years, and he really hoped that his granddaughter would have a good outcome.
"Girl, hurry up and accept it. Don't miss this opportunity. Seize it! Grandpa was confused in his early years, but he still had a good vision. You are great! You shouldn't have died so young!"
Chu Wuji used to be very disgusted with making decisions on his own, and he even disliked making decisions for others, but at that moment he couldn't help but say:
"After you are reborn as a zombie, you will still have to endure hardships and practice cultivation. But this time, you will suffer for your own sake. You will no longer be forced to endure hardships by your parents. When you get through it, you can go out and play freely!
The most important thing is that even if you really can't stand the subsequent hardship of practice, you still have the opportunity to regret and let the fairy sister give you a quick death.
Might as well agree to it now. Anyway, I'll experience it once. I'll go to the sacred place of the immortals in Kongtong Mountain and broaden my horizons. If it doesn't suit my taste, I can reincarnate again! It's worth it!
When several immortal cultivators heard his words, their expressions changed slightly and they controlled their thoughts of complaining.
The elders of Kongtong Mountain looked at each other: This is true, and the logic is correct, but it is a bit too rough.
The young girl Gong Li was a little confused. In the past ten years of her short life, since she was able to remember and walk, she was urged to learn all kinds of things, both useful and useless skills, to do her best.
As a result, she didn't have any deep feelings about life, and her only feeling was "I'm really tired of living."
When Gong Li heard that fairy sister say that she could bring the dead back to life, he didn't feel the slightest bit of excitement, let alone surprise.
What's the point of living? What's the point? Are you just craving for endless suffering?
She felt that it would be quite easy for her after her death. She would only need to stay in the ancestral hall, watching the elders of the tribe come in and out to pray, and no one would scold her.
When I'm hungry, I can only eat incense ash...
But after listening to Chu Wuji's analysis, she finally had a little touching vision. If she suffered for herself and couldn't bear it anymore, could she regret it?
Grandfather Gong's voice rang out again, and he offered bitter encouragement: "From now on, you don't need to worry about your family. It doesn't matter if you don't improve your cultivation well. Just be happy. This is all Grandfather expects of you!"
The girl came back to her senses, looked at the veiled fairy who was waiting patiently, and said timidly:
"Sister Fairy, please let me live again, even as a zombie..."
The young girl's tender eyes turned to Chu Wuji again. She clenched her pink fists and said confidently:
"Big brother, I will do my best. I can endure hardships the most!"
Chapter 197: Not a single drop of blood is your own
Miss Gong Li's "resurrection" process went very smoothly. After erasing the nascent intelligence of the wandering corpse, the remaining steps were not a big deal for the immortal cultivators.
It's nothing more than putting a soul that accidentally left the body back into the body, but this body is a little special.
"Do you want to get a piece of cloth to cover it? I heard that this zombie's body is afraid of sunlight?" Chu Wuzhi raised his arm to block the morning sun for the girl.
She had just stirred a little, but had not yet regained consciousness.
The eldest sister from Kongtong Mountain shook her head slightly and said, "We need to hide away during the hot summer. The winter sun doesn't have much effect on the wandering corpse. I'm afraid she won't be able to accept her terrifying appearance with her green face and fangs when she wakes up."
The old man with an ancestral demeanor stroked his goatee and said, "Get a mask and wear it for a few years. This body is blessed with great fortune, and it has also received the protection of the Qiong beast. It won't take long to break through to the 'Unbreakable Bone' realm."
Another elder with white hair and a youthful face also nodded in agreement. He glanced in the direction of the collapsed mausoleum, curious about where this beast had such good fortune, and said:
"This beast is ranked quite high among exotic beasts. In some legends, it's considered an auspicious beast. I never thought it would actually be associated with the abilities of refining zombies and drought demons..."
He hadn't said anything yet - unexpectedly, this method of corpse transformation was really a way to "resurrect from the dead". If one transcended to the end, he could get rid of the corpse and transform from a beast into a human again.
It’s a pity that the person who comes back to life is no longer the same person as before.
At noon, the girl's eyelids finally showed signs of waking up.
She opened her eyes, and there was a hint of ferocity in her dark pupils, which was the instinct of the corpse, but more of it was confusion and dullness, which was Gong Li's self-awareness.
Senior Sister Gu waited patiently for her to understand the situation, then she took out a piece of yellow paper, drew a talisman with her jade fingertips, and placed it on her forehead, explaining:
"This is to control your fierce nature. You can try to touch your teeth and prepare yourself mentally so that you won't find it hard to accept your appearance in the future."
The girl raised her arms, her muscles were slightly stiff, but the feeling was not much different from before. Her nails were black and exuded the sinister aura of corpse poison. She touched her face carefully, and when she touched the abnormally protruding fangs, her body trembled.
She looked around in panic. The Gong family members were blocked outside the ancestral hall. Only those god-like elders were inside the house. They looked at her calmly, without any prejudice or discrimination because of her identity as a zombie Hanba.
The same is true for the handsome older brother with white hair and black robe.
This made the girl feel much more at ease, and she nodded to show that she accepted the current situation.
Senior Sister Gu rarely talked too much, but considering the young girl's age, she reiterated in a gentle voice:
"This green-faced, fang-toothed state will follow you for quite a long time, but as long as you practice meditation, you can get rid of it. I will take you to Kongtong Mountain, where it is quiet enough and there will be no outsiders to disturb you."
Chu Wuji smiled easily and added:
"There are many long-lived people in the immortal family, so it's inevitable that there will be some old-fashioned people. If someone wants to pick on you, just let that person take over my blessing and backfire. If you don't dare to accept it, don't waste your words."
Senior Sister Gu looked at him in surprise. Chu Wuji's words were equivalent to saying that the favor owed by Kongtong Mountain in the matter of the Golden-haired Hound should be used on this girl in exchange for her treatment of practicing peacefully in the holy land of immortals.
If you have any objections due to this girl's special identity, then help Chu Wuji to get rid of the backlash of his good fortune first. If you don't dare to accept it, just keep quiet.
These words were quite harsh. Senior Sister Gu was thinking in her heart how to convince her fellow disciples after returning and find a solution that everyone could accept. With Chu Wuji's words, no one should have any objections!
The graceful and elegant senior sister of Kongtong Mountain half-knelt down with her graceful figure, took off the veil on her face, revealing a beautiful and elegant face with curved dark eyebrows and beautiful eyes that seemed to be shrouded in a layer of misty fog.
She put a veil on the girl, hiding her face, and took care of her:
"After you adjust to your body, I'll take you to Kongtong Mountain later. Now you can chat with your great grandfather."
I don’t know if it was because Chu Wuzhi had absolved the Golden Haired Hound of this sin, but although Grandpa Gong’s ghost was still weak, he vaguely felt that he had the ability to send dreams to his descendants.
In the future he will no longer have the opportunity to practice cultivation and can only rely on the incense and offerings from his descendants, but at least he has the ability to scold his descendants through dreams.
The Gong family had decent upbringing. At least after they gained power, they did not bully the people in the village. However, due to the debts owed to their ancestors, they had to pay it back for quite a long time and needed to slowly settle down.
Your fortune will decline, but if you stay calm and dormant for a few years, you will still have a chance to survive the cold winter, because the wealth you have accumulated in the past is too rich!
For example, in the mountains in this cold winter, some wild beasts can move freely, ignoring the ice and snow, while some small animals know that they are not strong enough, so they store food and hibernate, waiting for the spring to come in dormancy.
The Gong family's current bad luck actually means that they are living in a happy life that is beyond the reach of many ordinary people.
Senior Sister Gu wanted to say a few words to Chu Wuji to express her gratitude and her promise to take care of Gong Li, but she found that Chu Wuji had already flown back to the Lihuo Mountains with the white tiger mother and daughter, probably to deal with the seriously injured golden-haired lion.
The elders of Kongtong Mountain recalled the battle last night. They were still on the road at that time, but they sensed the murderous intent of the magical power in the Earth Chapter of the Yin Fu Jing and asked worriedly:
"Master, did your good fortune backfire when you dealt with that golden-haired beast last night?"
Senior Sister Gu shook her head and said frankly:
"I didn't take action last night. I only assisted the young man with the 'Guangcheng Jue'. He was the one who used that magical power, borrowing the power of the entire Lihuo Mountain Range."
Several monks from Kongtong Mountain were stunned and puzzled.
"Hiss... Mountain God? Even if he borrowed the power of the mountain, how did he know this magical power?"
"Yes, this 'Yin Fu Jing' is not a secret of Kongtong Mountain, but it is definitely not a common martial arts scripture that is circulated on the streets. Is this the disciple that the fellow Taoist of Kongtong Mountain privately accepted?"
