"Wind God." Yang Yuhan said, using wooden techniques to transform Xiaofeng into the shape of her side. "Remember this girl, and in a while, you will use the village eight miles southeast to find her as fast as you can. Also, she is likely to be with a young monk with a strong figure. Once she finds them, she will first subdue the monk, save the girl, and then meet with me."

"Wang." Feng Shen barked and responded, then turned to the southeast to control the wind, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Yang Yuhan also followed and ran quickly using the art of Qi Pubing.

...

After about seven or eight minutes, Yang Yuhan had already passed by Dingjia Village. And just as he reached a small hill, the wind god rushed over with his smell.

Yang Yuhan looked around and did not find Xiaofeng or any monk. So he asked Xiang Fengshen in confusion: "Fengshen, have you found them?"

Feng Shen nodded.

"Then..." Yang Yuhanqi said, "Why didn't you bring them here?"

The wind god "Wang" sounded, then moved his body to the south, and looked back at him. Yang Yuhan knew his intentions, and then stepped on the back of the "Tibetan Mastiff" and let it carry it, flying radially to the south.

...

Just after flying for more than ten miles, Yang Yuhan saw a large forest of scrambling for glory in the distance, with dazzling golden light constantly flashing. After landing, it was clear that the two monks were fighting. And because of the two, the surroundings were already in a mess - some trees were neatly cut off, some trees were smashed, and some... turned into powder directly, leaving only the bottom of different heights and semi-arced gaps at the top.

An old man with a patch on his monk's robe swung the old Zen stick in his hand and smashed it hard at a strong monk. However, the monk held a monk's stick and kept moving, and hammered it back with his right fist alone.

"clang!!!"

Another golden light suddenly dissipated, and the Wind God seemed to be quite afraid of it, and quickly dodged and dodged the one shot towards him.

"Enough!" Seeing that the old monk was resolute, the monk couldn't help but feel angry. He first shouted like a bell, and then quickly punched three punches, which beat the old monk step by step, and almost lost his Zen stick. "Master, don't force me!!"

The old monk finally stopped his body. Although his face was still sturdy, it shook suddenly. Then, a trace of blood slowly overflowed from the corner of his mouth, probably because he had suffered internal injuries. Seeing this, Yang Yuhan quickly jumped down from the back of the mastiff and reached out to hold him: "Are you okay, Master?"

The old monk nodded calmly to thank him, and wiped the corners of his mouth calmly.

"Master, since your disciple knows your mistake, why are you still treating me like this?!" the monk said with a frown and glaring.

The old monk sighed: "Hey, your supernatural powers are all from me. Now that you have done such a serious sin, you will naturally have nothing to do with me. I do this just to take back your supernatural powers so that you will no longer do evil."

The great monk said angrily: "If you take my magical powers, what's the difference between killing me?! The person next to you is here to catch me. If I don't have magical powers to protect my body, I will never be able to escape and die sooner or later!"

The old monk said calmly: "I did this just to repent. And the cause and effect of you are only to you, not related to others."

The monk said angrily: "What about you, Master?! Haven't you killed someone before?"

Yang Yuhan was shocked. As he heard what he meant, he had killed someone himself. And the victim... was probably Xiaofeng who everyone was looking for.

The old monk stood with one hand: "Amitabha, no matter whether my cause or effect is reached or not, I have regarded it calmly."

"Okay!" said the monk hatefully, "According to the master's words, the person who was killed by me also has his own cause and effect, so the disciple just practices the way for heaven. What's the fault?!"

The old monk replied: "When the Buddha was about to enter the death, Venerable Ananda asked me: 'Who will the Buddha be the teacher after the Buddha entered the death?' The Buddha said: 'Take precepts as the teacher'. It can be seen that the importance of precepts. Your fault... is not that you kill 'him', but that you kill and break the precepts of killing. Now that your precepts have been eliminated, it is like water overturning and breaking the mirror and it is useless no matter how much you repent."

Hearing this, Yang Yuhan couldn't help but feel a little confused, because if Xiaofeng was the one who was victimized, they should have mentioned the word "girl" when they spoke. But after hearing this, it seemed that he was killing another person, which also made Yang Yuhan breathe a little relieved.

...

The great monk said sternly: "Haha, the Bodhisattva once said, I won't go to hell... Who will go to hell! I did this just to save him and let him get rid of his troubles as soon as possible."

The old monk sighed again: "Hey, you have been very intelligent since childhood, but you have also been harmed by wisdom. You only care about learning those supernatural powers, but you never listen to them devoutly. The words said by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva were to accept the Buddha's trust at that time, so he made a great vow of 'Hell is not empty, and you will not become a Buddha; only by saving all sentient beings can you achieve Bodhi'. With your own power, you will appear in the six realms, set aside convenience and save suffering sentient beings. Before you save yourself, you will learn from the Bodhisattva to save people. This kind of trick is done by the devil's way."

The monk laughed furiously: "Hahaha... Since my disciple has entered the devil's way, why not be lenient to me with the mercy of my master?"

The old monk said quietly, "I have never dared to say that I am compassionate. With my stupidity, I only seek to stop and keep myself and self-discipline. If sentient beings see that I can feel something and thus pursue all kinds of goodness, it is only the virtue of my Buddha and the virtue of sentient beings."

The monk said angrily: "Okay! Even if the master only wants to save himself, what about the Buddha? What about the Bodhisattva? As soon as I was born, I was abandoned by my parents, went to recognize my relatives and was humiliated. The insidious villain urged me to drink wine, which made me eventually make a big mistake. Where are they at these times? Why don't they come to save me?" After speaking, there seemed to be a little aggrieved.

The old monk paused and said, "All the sufferings you have suffered are the tests of the Buddha for you. When you were still a baby, the Buddha sympathized with your incompetence, so he led me to you, taught you supernatural powers, and taught you Buddhism, which was a way to deal with them. Unexpectedly, you did not use it well. You first became obsessed with appearances, went to recognize your relatives, lost your mind, easily bewitched by others, and got caught in the three fires (greed, anger, and ignorance). You became malicious about the kind donor, and finally broke the killing precepts and harmed the young master. Now your karma is too heavy, and you still want to observe with your appearance, seek with your voice, and have a bad reputation, so you will naturally not see my Buddha."

The great monk smiled contemptuously and said, "Haha, if my Buddha is truly compassionate, I should have left me alone and let me die directly, and I will not leave these many disasters behind. He did this clearly because he was harming people and me. It would be better if I didn't see this Buddha!"

The old monk shook his head slightly: "Hey, if you don't observe your own heart, no one can see it."

The monk shouted angrily: "You don't want to, so you can't see me!"

The old monk sighed and said, "The Buddha said, 'appearance is born from the heart'. With my heart, I see your appearance, which makes me merciful. With your heart, I see all living beings, all of them are demons."

The great monk sneered, "Haha, who is the demon? The Buddha said that the demon is a demon, and the demon said that the Buddha is also a demon. You always say that you should keep it, do whatever evil is done, and do all good, but this good is only your good, and this evil is only your evil! Your evil is good to the demon, and your good becomes evil to the demon. This is like water and fire, what is right or wrong?!"

The old monk was slightly stunned when he heard this, and after a moment he said, "Since you have entered my Buddhism, you should regard the good of Buddhism as good and the evil of Buddhism as bad. But now you have broken your views and the Buddhist temple has left you unavailable."
