Chapter 184 I’m sorry, old monk!
There were pagodas as references along the way back to the crack, and rather than showing the way, it seemed more like Shiji was leading the two all the way back to the starting point, allowing them to get further away from the gate of the Bodhi Temple.
As expected, Zhu Fu was still guarding the pagoda, but the two did not expect that An Shi would also stay here, and after seeing the abbot and his two companions appear, his movements became more anxious.
"What is he doing?" Qin Baiqing squinted his eyes and watched from afar. He saw that An Shi was actually approaching the crack again. The crack that he and Zhu Fu had just pressed together began to surge after sensing An Shi's breath.
By the time Qin Baiqing saw clearly what An Shi was doing, his attack had already hit the crack hard.
"He's attacking the rift!"
"Bad guys are bad guys, damn it!" Qin Baiqing pointed in the direction of the crack and reminded the two of them.
The defense of the crack was already fragile, not to mention that An Shi's attack carried a polluting force. Soon the crack barrier became shaky. He was actually trying to reopen the crack!
Wouldn't that release more pollution? Qin Baiqing couldn't imagine why An Shi would do this.
As the incarnation of Master Mingzeng, he is of the same clan as Zhu Fu. How could he be so evil?
Beyond Qin Baiqing's understanding.
Before they got close, Zhu Fu noticed something strange.
He felt the pollution stirring around him, opened his eyes and looked precisely at An Shi, and seemed to see through An Shi's intentions in the dazzling golden light.
"Don't try to stop me this time!"
An Shi's expression was even more paranoid than before, and he continued to attack fiercely in front of Zhu Fu.
Even in the face of Zhu Fu's silent defense, he did not restrain himself, and his attacks became more and more intense.
"Don't hurt Zhu Fu!" Qin Baiqing finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Especially since Zhu Fu didn't care about anything and just defended without attacking, Qin Baiqing shouted to stop An Shi and finally stopped his unrestrained offensive.
"So they are all here." An Shi sneered, and paused for a moment before turning around and attacking Qin Baiqing.
He turned around, and Qin Baiqing saw that even An Shi's eye sockets were full of traces of pollution, and strands of pollution were floating in his eyes like insects.
The contaminated attack was blocked by Shi Ji. He shouted angrily in a deep voice like a bell, "Retreat!"
The Buddha's rage was so powerful that he actually shattered An Shi's attack.
Qin Baiqing was dumbfounded and stunned for a moment before she reacted. She immediately understood why An Shi was attacking so desperately.
"The pollution in the illusion liked to devour people. Although Anshi could coexist with it, he would be affected after a long time. Even if the pollution could not devour him, it could assimilate him."
The pollution that An Shi sees now speaks for itself.
"The essence of the Heaven and Earth Crack is to devour life. After it realized that it couldn't eat Anshi, it simply planned to destroy itself with Anshi!"
If you can’t kill him, let An Shi end his life himself. The pollution is too vicious and too weird!
"Wait, where are the people outside?" Qin Baiqing suddenly asked Shi Ji: "Devouring them one by one is too slow. Have the monks outside also been affected by the pollution and started to take action?"
"My young friend is too smart. I am always worried that things will turn into the opposite extreme and God will be jealous," Shi Ji's eyes were filled with pity when he looked at Qin Baiqing.
He shook his head and consoled him, "But you don't have to worry, young friend. I was the first to notice the movement of the crack and have activated the sect protection formation. The formation is connected to the crack barrier. At that time, all disciples will sacrifice themselves to make up for the years of neglect in the temple."
"?" Qin Baiqing was a little confused.
She opened her mouth for a long time without saying anything. After a long time, she stammered and confirmed: "The way you monks solve the problem is that if one person's death is not enough, then just let everyone in the temple die. Is that right?" Is it really okay to solve the problem this way? !
She was stunned and speechless for a long time. Her heart was shattered to pieces and she didn't know how to pick it up again.
"You don't have to tell her this. This is your decision." Feng Budu was not affected. He picked up Qin Baiqing and asked only one question: "You just need to tell us whether the sect protection formation will only stop the monks, or stop us as well."
It's impossible for us to do good deeds with our little ancestor and then end up having to accompany them to fulfill their righteous cause.
"I'm not interested in sacrificing my life with you to save the world." His voice was cold and hard.
"Amitabha...I'm sorry."
"Heh." Feng Budu sneered, curling his lips sarcastically, "It seems that the abbot has made the decision for us long ago."
His face turned cold, and he took a step back while holding Qin Baiqing, rejecting the abbot's apology. "Don't be in a hurry to apologize, because I may need to apologize to you."
Along with the voice, Feng Budu's fierce and ruthless attack also came in front of Shi Ji.
"You, you you you——" Qin Baiqing was still shocked, and she turned away and asked incredulously:
"Why did you do that? Don't you admire Ming Zeng very much? Why?"
The world is changing so fast that a five-year-old’s brain can no longer handle it.
"Just now I was just making sarcastic remarks, but now it concerns our lives. Do you think it can be the same?" Feng Budu straightened her head and said confidently, "Remember, I would rather die than let my friends die. Never get angry and follow others to die. We should not follow the monks in making a fuss when they do something stupid."
To be alive is to be alive, and being alive is everything.
Whether it is martyrdom or salvation, death is not the end, and death cannot bring any meaning.
"Life is meaning." He warned Qin Baiqing almost coldly.
"So, old monk, I'm sorry."
This sentence was light and the three words "I'm sorry" could not change anything. When it came from Feng Budu's mouth, it added a bit of sharp irony.
"Wait, I'm a little confused, do you want me to think about it!" Qin Baiqing suddenly pressed down his hand that was continuing to attack.
The few of them fell strangely silent. An Shi watched the show coldly, Shi Ji still looked at her with pity, and Feng Budu waited quietly for her to think it through.
After a while, Qin Baiqing suddenly nodded heavily, his eyes clear, "I understand, you are right!"
She patted Feng Budu's shoulder firmly.
Even Feng Budu was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that she would accept his suggestion of giving up Bodhi Temple and leaving with him so quickly. He sincerely sighed that the child had grown up and knew to be on his side.
So he planned to attack again without saying a word, ready to break the formation and take Qin Baiqing away.
But the hand that was about to move was suppressed by Qin Baiqing again.
"What are you doing?" Qin Baiqing stared at him, and without saying anything, she pressed down Feng Budu's hand and snorted, "I've figured it out. If you have any trouble, please go to the adults. I'll go to my mother now!"
As she spoke, she plucked the small flower above her head. The tender yellow petals trembled fragilely in the breeze, and the stamens shook. Qin Baiqing let go of her hand and flew away with the wind. An unspeakable oppressive force began to emerge in the air. The petals fluttered like butterflies, gently stirring up the turbulent aura of the Bodhi Temple.
The restless monks were suppressed in an instant.
