After convincing the two disciples, the Dao Sage waved a clear light and fell into the southern frontier.

After a while, the Buddha came to the back mountain on the cloud platform, folded his hands and saluted: "The poor monk has met the Taoist saint, and has seen the Zhuang saint and the human emperor. ”

"I don't know what the Holy Calling Poor Monk to Say?"

Dao Sheng smiled and said: "The Jianmu Divine Tree has entered the maturity period, and it urgently needs a lot of faith power to further grow, Poor Dao originally ordered Zhuang Zhou and Lin Ze to do it, but the two of them secretly played tricks, and they didn't make any achievements for a long time. ”

"Poor Dao suddenly remembered that Buddhism is the best at collecting the power of faith, so he called you to come and ask, do you have the ability to deal with this matter?"

If the Buddha heard this, a look of understanding appeared on his face, no wonder Zhuang Zhou and Lin Ze looked a little bad, it turned out that they had been disciplined.

Should I go straight to it, or should I hesitate for a moment?

With such a heavy responsibility, the poor monk did not dare to promise it easily, and asked the poor monk to think about it for a moment. ”

After thinking about it carefully, the Buddha felt that he should think carefully before making a decision.

Lin Ze next to him was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly interjected: "Teacher Qiyu, the disciple has arranged for Jiang Yuesheng to select people, and he can start collecting the power of faith tomorrow at the latest." ”

"There are hundreds of millions of people in Western Qin, and with the cooperation of the disciples, they can definitely collect sufficient faith power in a short period of time, and I also ask the teacher to show them. ”

If the Buddha heard this, Lin Ze was still struggling with this matter?

There was a hint of coldness on Dao Sheng's face, and his tone was stern: "In that case, why did you go today? Why didn't you take action before the teacher summoned you?"

"If you really don't have you, you can't do this world as a teacher, right?"

Lin Ze bowed and saluted: "The disciple doesn't dare, it's just that the disciple thinks that the disciple has been taking care of the Jianmu Divine Tree all along, and he still has some experience, and the disciple can bear the follow-up cultivation, so why should the teacher fake his hands to outsiders?"

Zhuang Zhou echoed again: "Yes, I hope that the senior brother will give the junior brother another chance to cultivate the Jianmu Divine Tree in the past ten years, and the disciple is willing to assist the junior brother to complete this matter together." ”

Dao Sheng's expression slowed slightly, glanced at the Buddha who was hesitant, and bowed slightly: "If the Buddha doesn't seem to have time to take care of this matter, then I will still leave it to the two of you." ”

Lin Zezhuang Zhou smiled at the same time, bowed down and responded, "Thank you, teacher." ”

Dao Sheng ignored it, turned his gaze to the Buddha, and said with a light smile: "It's hard for you to run." ”

The Buddha took the joy on Lin Zezhuang Zhou's face into his eyes, and there was a feeling that he had missed some opportunity, and said decisively: "The Tao is holy and slow, and the poor monk has something to say." ”

Dao Sheng looked at him with a slight surprise, as if asking what you want to say?

The Buddha said with confidence: "The poor monk thinks that the collection of the power of faith should be done by the Buddha, and no one in the world knows how to collect the power of faith better than the Buddha." ”

"Although the Dao Palace is strong, you have to admit that the Dao Palace is slightly inferior to the Buddhists in this regard. The poor monk hoped that the Taoist saint would take a long-term plan and hand over this matter to the poor monk to do. ”

Lin Ze's displeasure was overflowing, and he said in a deep voice: "As the so-called relatives are different, there are differences between inside and outside, how can such an important matter be handed over to someone outside the Dao Palace to do?"

The Buddha did not back down, and retorted: "The poor monk is deeply favored by the Taoist saint, and he has to step into the realm of the saint, and in this life he has regarded himself as a disciple of the Taoist saint. ”

"On the other hand, the human emperor, although he has worked hard for ten years, how many times have he gone to the Dao Palace to honor the Dao Saint?"

"There really is a difference between intimacy and alienation, and the poor monk feels that he will not be worse than the human emperor, or even higher than the human emperor. ”

Lin Ze said coldly: "So what, who has no name and no share, how can I be qualified to put a beak in the friendship between me and the teacher?"

If the Buddha recalled that in the past ten years, Lin Ze had controlled the Jianmu Divine Tree, enjoyed the opportunity alone, and went to him privately, not giving him any affection, only seeking the Taoist saint, he would be very reluctant to share a small part.

Even what the Dao Sage promised, when he came to him, he either shirked it or greatly discounted it, which is really hateful.

Thinking of this, in order to compete for the current opportunity, the Buddha was so heartbroken that he even lost his dignity, and said sarcastically with a smile: "Isn't it that the emperor is too unbearable to be beaked?"

Lin Ze's breath exploded, and he said angrily: "The land of the Dao Palace, how can you be presumptuous?"

"Bang"

Dao Sheng slapped it on the stone table: "Hugh is presumptuous." ”

Lin Ze's face changed, his breath fluctuated, and he reluctantly said, "The disciple doesn't dare." ”

Dao Sheng looked at Lin Ze indifferently: "Dignified, acting so small, the teacher is very disappointed in you, you don't have to worry about collecting the power of faith for the time being, the teacher will go to find a suitable candidate." ”

Lin Ze's face was flustered, and he said without hesitation: "In this way, the Heavenly Dao reward obtained from cultivating the Jianmu Divine Tree will become someone else's. Think twice, teacher. ”

Dao Sheng said indifferently: "Do things for the teacher, is it your turn to put the beak?"

Lin Ze bowed his head and said, "The disciple doesn't dare." ”

Zhuang Zhou persuaded at the right time: "The teacher is angry, the little junior brother is just worried that the Dao Palace has missed the opportunity, and there is no malice. ”

Dao Sheng's expression remained unchanged, and he turned to the Buddha and asked, "Do you want to do this?"

The Buddha replied: "The poor monk doesn't dare to deceive you, the poor monk really wants to." ”

Dao Sheng said indifferently: "From today to the next month, it is up to you to collect the power of faith, if you perform well, continue to do it, if you perform poorly, you will change to someone else." ”

A flash of joy flashed on the Buddha's face, and he folded his hands and said, "The poor monk will live up to the expectations of the Taoist saint." ”

Dao Sheng thought for a while and said: "Poor Dao has a secret method in his hand, which can inject the power of faith collected into the Jianmu Divine Tree to help the Jianmu Divine Tree grow. ”

After speaking, he stretched out a finger, and a clear light submerged into the body of the Buddha.

The Buddha was respectful: "Thank you for the grace of the Dharma." ”

Dao Sheng waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite, let's go and do things." ”

Lin Ze suddenly took a step forward and said, "Please give the disciple the same secret method." ”

Dao Sheng glanced at him and said indifferently: "When you are responsible for collecting the power of faith for the Jianmu Divine Tree, you will come to find a teacher." ”

Lin Ze wanted to say more, but was dragged away by Zhuang Zhou.

A hint of joy flashed in the eyes of the Buddha, his hands were folded, and he bowed his head slightly: "The poor monk has retired." ”

......

In the evening, the Buddha came to the Jianmu Sacred Tree on a cloud platform, holding a light cluster emitting seven-colored light, and sent it into the Jianmu Sacred Tree according to the method recorded in the secret method.

After an instant, a ray of light fell from above the nine heavens and submerged into the body of the Buddha.

The corners of the mouth of the Buddha, who was comfortable and satisfied, what a good opportunity, someone has occupied it for ten years, and it is finally his turn.

......

In the early morning of the second day, when the Buddha came to the Jianmu Sacred Tree, he found that Lin Ze was directing a group of people to build an altar and surrounded the Jianmu Sacred Tree.

The Buddha patiently stopped at the side and watched for a while, but Lin Ze turned a blind eye to him and didn't even say hello.

After a long time, the Buddha couldn't hold back, took a step forward, folded his hands and said: "Can the Emperor of the People let people give up a place for the poor monk, don't delay the task assigned by the Dao Sheng?"

Lin Ze glanced back at him and said lazily: "Wait a while, I will naturally make way for you when I am done." ”

After speaking, he put the Buddha aside and continued to instruct others to do things.

The Buddha's face was gloomy: "Don't forget that the Emperor of the People should not forget, cultivating the Jianmu Divine Tree is a matter for the Dao Sage to confess, and he can't afford to delay it." ”

A touch of disdain appeared at the corner of Lin Ze's mouth: "Coincidentally, what I will do here is also what the teacher has explained, in terms of time, it is still before you." ”

"There is always a first-come-first-come-first-first-come

The Buddha glanced at Lin Ze deeply, knowing that this matter could not be good, so he turned around and went in the direction of the Dao Palace.

After a while, Dao Sheng's majestic voice sounded in Lin Ze's ears: "Lin Ze, don't do anything wrong. ”

Lin Ze bowed slightly and said, "The disciple just acted according to the teacher's previous instructions, how can there be nothing to do?"

"What do you want to do, for the sake of the teacher, I don't care about you, and I can't delay the cultivation of the Jianmu Divine Tree, understand?"

Lin Ze squinted his eyes slightly and asked, "The altar?"

"If the Buddha uses the power of faith to make offerings to Jianmu, pause, and when he finishes you will start again. ”

A look of extreme reluctance appeared on Lin Ze's face, and he said in a low voice, "Disciple obeys." ”

Then he commanded the people gathered in front of the sacred tree, "That's it for today, stand down." ”

The next moment, the Buddha returned with a smug face, sent the power of faith into the Jianmu Divine Tree, and took the reward of the Heavenly Dao and floated away.

......

Lin Ze intentionally or unintentionally blocked the Buddha for five days, until the altar was completed on the fifth day, and it came to an end.

Before leaving, the Buddha suddenly asked: "I don't know what is the purpose of the emperor to build this altar?" If it is useless, it is better to tear it down and save it from being an eyesore here. ”

Lin Ze sneered: "This altar was built by the demon master Kunpeng specially to find a teacher and sacrifice to the Jianmu Divine Tree, and it is said that there are indescribable miracles. ”

"If you really have the ability, just tear it down, and maybe I'll look down on you. ”

The Buddha chuckled and was silent.

Lin Ze smiled again and turned to leave.

......

After Lin Ze left, when the Buddha stepped forward and wanted to send the power of faith he had collected into it, he suddenly stopped.

Looking back, there was no one else at the scene except for some mortal guards who didn't squint.

If the Buddha's face is uncertain, the ghost will walk up to the newly built altar and sit down cross-legged.

An inexplicable feeling came to my heart, and the avenue between heaven and earth seemed to be much clearer.

The demon master of the demon clan really lives up to his reputation, and the specially built altar has such an effect.

Do you want to use it?

A bold idea appeared in the Buddha's heart, but what he didn't notice was that the surrounding formation was strangely activated, glowing and illuminating the entire space.

After a long time, a solemn look appeared on the face of the Buddha, sitting cross-legged on the altar, and the power of faith was sent into the Jianmu Divine Tree, and then a fifty percent more heavenly reward fell than in the previous days.

The Buddha left with a satisfied face.

In the courtyard near the Jianmu Divine Tree, Lin Ze saw this scene and said in surprise: "It's so easy to take the bait?"

Zhuang Zhou walked up to him and said with a look of embarrassment: "From the moment he used a shortcut to be promoted, the Dao Heart was broken, and a person without the Dao Heart, no matter how strong he was, he was just a walking corpse." ”

Lin Ze was shocked when he heard this: "Isn't that junior brother, I'm bad?"

Zhuang Zhou glanced at him and said indifferently: "Senior brother, don't worry, your Dao heart is self-oriented, and taking shortcuts is in line with Dao heart." ”

Lin Ze......
