Chapter 318: The Past of Xiqu (6)

By the time he talked about this, Duan Yanxin had prepared more than ten plates of side dishes and delivered them to the dining table through the air through the demonic power. Then, he walked in with chopsticks and a stack of empty bowls.

Huike stopped telling and greeted, "Haha, the food is coming, everyone should go to the table and take a seat."

Seeing that the food was served, Pu Zixuan, who was already hungry, couldn't wait to sit up and laughed and said, "It's so wonderful. Let's continue talking to us while we have a meal."

When I arrived at the table, I saw that although there were ten dishes in total, I looked around and found that they were all green vegetables, radish, and even cold-sed Houttuynia cordata, and there was no meat. Pu Zixuan couldn't help but feel disappointed and said, "Ah, Elder Huike, is this what you said 'sourcing'?"

Yu Xiangdi gave Pu Zixuan a blank look and said, "Nonsense, Elder Huike has been practicing Buddhism for many years, how could he eat meat?"

Chen Shuqing also stood on Yu Xiangdi's side and smiled and said, "I think the vegetarian food is pretty good, which shows Elder Huike's Bodhisattva heart. What we eat is just an atmosphere, right?"

Pu Zixuan said awkwardly: "Hehe, I just talk about it casually. Actually, I like vegetarian dishes, which are beneficial to digestion and defecation."

Chen Shuqing laughed and scolded: "Come on, you said this when you were eating, it was so disgusting!"

The five of them sat around the round table, and at Huike's greeting, they all started to move their chopsticks. After saying some delicious food, Chen Shuqing couldn't help but ask unsatisfiedly: "Elder Huike, what about later?"

"What happened later?" Huike was stunned.

Chen Shuqing looked at Duan Yanxin friendly and smiled, "How did you meet Miss Duan?"

"I'll talk about this myself." Duan Yanxin put a piece of tofu into his mouth, chewing it, "Grandpa and I are also friends in distress..."

When Xiqu abandoned evil and went to good, the demon king brother Duo had been sealed by Pu Songling for more than fifty years. The demon world was in a low point. Xiqu did not have close contact with other demon kings, so there was no need to explain anything to them. Even if there was occasional interaction, Xiqu would pretend to summon some beast monsters through Prajna ability and pretend to be normal. Therefore, the demon world always believed that Xiqu was still expanding its territory, and no one dared to attack him of Prajna Crystal, and Xiqu did not take the initiative to provoke others.

But for this reason, over the past hundred years, some purifying messengers have taken the responsibility of eliminating demons and followed the demonic energy to come to him to trouble him. However, the purifying messengers of contemporary purifying messengers are no longer as capable as before. There are very few people with mana value of more than 5,000, most of them are only one or two thousand, two or three thousand. Xiqu has remained around eight thousand for a hundred years. Therefore, when facing the invading purifying messengers, Xiqu will stop them, and will understand them with emotion and will not harm them. The visitors will be moved, and thus turn war with the demon king into jade silk.

In the third year of Xianfeng, that is, in 1853 AD, Xiqu was robbed by three robbers outside Dengfeng. Although the robbers were evil people, Xiqu had no intention of fighting. He gave him a few coins and turned around and left. The robbers took the money, but cursed at Xiqu: "You old, wealth-guarded slave, do you want to send the beggars with this little money?" After that, he pressed Xiqu to the ground.

Xiqu was not injured at all, nor was he panicked. He was thinking in his mind whether to use demonic power to attack the three people. Suddenly, a shock wave came, overturning the three robbers to the ground.

The visitor was Duan Yanxin, who was eleven years old at the time. She only heard her righteously saying, "You evil people, bullying the old man in broad daylight, is really unscrupulous!" Then, she recognized the appearance of the three of them and said in surprise: "So it's you!"

The three robbers stood up and saw that the person who came was just a little girl. They all showed contempt and said some humiliating words, and smiled evilly, and wanted to teach Duan Yanxin a lesson.

Duan Yanxin's face was distorted due to anger and planned to fight with the robbers again. Even the starting move was done, but suddenly felt that her body was soft and weak as if it was possessed by a demon.

So, the next scene changed, and Duan Yanxin was defeated by the three, and Xiqu took action to rescue him.

"It's okay to bully me, but it's unbearable for you to bully a weak woman!"

Xiqu easily beat the three of them to the point of being unable to get up. Just as he was about to turn them over to the government, Duan Yanxin said: "It was these three people who robbed and killed my parents four days ago. I hid in the closet and escaped. This kind of power in me suddenly appeared after that day, and I was about to seek revenge on them!"

Xiqu then told Duan Yanxin that the power she used was called "purification power", but once it was used to deal with ordinary humans, it would be sealed. He also asked Duan Yanxin to choose whether to avenge her parents in person or to escort them to the government.

Duan Yan couldn't hide his calmness, so he decisively killed the three of them with his own hands, which relieved the hatred in his heart.

Afterwards, Duan Yanxin begged Xiqu: "I have no family and no place to go. I don't know if they have any accomplices coming to cause trouble for me. If my grandfather doesn't dislike me, can I live with you from now on?"

Xiqu already has Lu Shu as his companion, and now he has a lovely girl who is willing to accompany him. Thinking that he is no longer lonely in his later years, he is very happy, but he is also worried about the special identities of the two, so he deliberately scares him: "Grandpa, I am a monster. I have eaten many people in the past. Aren't you afraid?"

"Not afraid, grandpa is such a good person. If he is really a monster, then I will become a monster to accompany you!"

So, the demon king Xiqu took in a little girl who purified the messenger in the last stage of his life, and the two became friends of age.

That night, Duan Yanxin said that she killed someone today and was very scared and wanted to sleep with Xiqu. Xiqu felt that it was inappropriate, but Duan Yanxin was very stubborn. In the end, Xiqu could not bear her and had to agree to sleep with her for the same night.

After nightfall, Duan Yanxin was half asleep and half awake, suddenly heard an ethereal and wonderful singing.

What night is it? We walk together on the snow.

Brothers are clear and turbid wine, monks and laymen are vegetarian and meat dishes...

Duan Yanxin became even more scared and immediately hugged Xiqu tightly and asked, "Why are there anyone singing? Is there someone else living at home?"

Xiqu said in a daze: "Ah? Can you hear the singing just now?"

Seeing Duan Yanxin's affirmation, Xiqu murmured: "It's bad. It seems that you are really going to become a monster..."

So Xiqu took Duan Yanxin out of the hut and saw Lu Shu, who was covered in red light in the dark bamboo forest, was slowly walking towards the two of them while singing.

Duan Yanxin exclaimed: "Oh my god, what kind of animal is this? Why does it sing?"

Lu Shu said: "I am Lu Shu. Almost a hundred years have passed, and finally someone can hear my singing again. Girl, you can hear my singing, which means you are a destined person. From then on, in order to hear my singing forever, you will become a monster and your appearance will no longer grow old."

That night, Duan Yanxin finally understood that the monsters that Xiqu mentioned were not jokes, but under the influence of the sound of nature in Lu Shu, Duan Yanxin had never realized the vastness and beauty of life as he did at this moment. She and Xiqu, whether they were humans or monsters, Buddhas or demons, were willing to go on without hesitation.

Her purifying power was awakened again. Not only that, she also possessed the power of demons and became a rebel.

Since then, although Duan Yanxin's age is still growing, her appearance remains as an eleven-year-old girl this year.

More than a month later, under Xiqu's careful guidance, Duan Yanxin's purifying power has improved, and finally materialized a strange book that can show the magic power of the purifier and monster. It was also that year that Xiqu happened to meet Abbot Huiyuan of Shaolin Temple and became a Buddhist disciple, and obtained the Dharma name "Huike". So at his suggestion, Duan Yanxin named the book "Sakya Heavenly Scroll".

This year, Huike gradually began to announce his retirement to the world, no longer concerned about worldly disputes, and only seeks to spend the rest of his life peacefully.

Duan Yanxin, Huike and Lu Shu spent an extremely wonderful five years together. In the eighth year of Xianfeng, that is, in 1858 AD, Lu Shu died in the bamboo forest outside the thatched hut, and from then on only two old and young people depended on each other.

Huike was heartbroken. Thinking that he would soon follow Lu Shu and become depressed, Duan Yan couldn't bear to see his grandfather so he was depressed. One day, he suddenly had a whim and said, "Grandpa, you actually have very important things to do. Otherwise, you will find a young monster and cultivate him into a righteous demon king in your lifetime and inherit your name Xiqu, how about it?"

Huike immediately realized and proposed to hand over the Prajna Crystal to Duan Yanxin so that she could inherit the position of Demon King.

Duan Yanxin immediately refused: "What I want is not this ending, but a process - a process that can cheer up grandpa and work hard for it. Otherwise, let's find another rhino monster."

Huike saw Duan Yanxin's good intentions and agreed with pleasure. The only problem was that the rhino on the land of China had almost disappeared, let alone the rhino that became a demon.
