Chapter 310 A bamboo becomes a spirit
As Yamaguchi Hiroya fell silent, the whole room also fell silent.
Ha ha.
A light laugh came from the god covered in golden light, and he seemed to find this new and novel.
"I thought Master Liansheng came here tonight to stop me."
"Buddhism talks about cause and effect. I came here just to see how this 20-year cause and effect will end."
After Pinggong Qianye helped Abbot Shanzhen to recover, he glanced at the god who was still covered in golden light.
There was no need for diamond eyes, his gaze was enough to see through the disguise of this god's appearance.
He is tall and thin, shaped like a bamboo pole, wearing emerald green clothes and with clear eyes. He does not look like some heretical evil god.
This is a bamboo that has become a spirit.
Very rare.
Throughout history, most of the monsters that have been able to become spirits are spiritual mountain animals.
The idea of bamboo becoming a spirit is almost non-existent in the world except for a few references in ancient books.
"If I want to end this karma by killing, Master Liansheng should stop me, right?"
"Life is hard to come by, so please cherish it."
The bamboo spirit heard the warning in Pinggong Qianye's words, and advised himself to take care of himself and not commit sins.
His life was also hard-earned.
"Master Liansheng is right. Everything in the world is beautiful and worth cherishing."
The bamboo spirit nodded, "Master Liansheng, are you interested in visiting my training ground?"
"That's fine."
"Okay, let's go first."
The bamboo spirit smiled and pointed at Yamaguchi Chie. A force flowed, binding her, making her float, and then carrying her out of the window.
"Don't take my daughter away!"
Yamaguchi Hiroya shouted and rushed over, but was blocked by the window. He could only watch his daughter being taken away by the gods and disappear into the night sky.
"Master Liansheng..."
Yamaguchi Hiroya turned around again and knelt down in front of Heimiya Chiye.
"Master, please save my daughter!"
"What price would you be willing to pay for your daughter's safe return?"
"Any price!"
Hiramiya Chiye nodded and asked Akechi Mitsuhide to drive.
After Hiramiya Chiya and Akechi Mitsuhide left, Master Shanzhen looked at Yamaguchi Hiromasa, who was almost mentally collapsed, and comforted him: "Don't worry, this god is not some evil god. Your daughter will come back safely."
"really?"
"Tonight, you are so worried that you are confused and have lost your former wisdom. If you didn't want to save people, why would Master Liansheng come all the way from Tokyo tonight?"
"But just now Master Liansheng..."
“Some things are not meant for us to hear.”
"As long as my daughter can come back safely, I don't ask for anything else."
Abbot Shanzhen looked out the window at the dark night and thought about things in his own temple.
Perhaps Master Liansheng would really be a good choice.
……
Deep in the mountains of Nagano, deep in the dense bamboo forest.
A clear spring is like a bright pearl, reflecting the light of the bright moon in the sky.
At this moment, Chie Yamaguchi was sitting quietly on a rock beside the clear pond, looking at the god whose golden light had faded.
He is tall and thin, with a gentle and elegant appearance, a straight back, and a faint fragrance of bamboo on his body.
This must be a bamboo that has become a spirit, a god. After a long time, Yamaguchi Chie came back to her senses.
Just now, along the way, she flew through the sky and looked down at the world. The feeling was both scary and novel.
After landing in the bamboo forest, the god did not do anything to her. It was not like in the stories that he wanted to eat her alive.
On the contrary, the glances He cast at me from time to time were filled with thought and expectation.
What does He seem to want from Himself?
"What exactly do you want to do by kidnapping me?" Chie Yamaguchi was silent for a long time, but still asked.
"Fulfill your promise."
Yamaguchi Chie took a deep breath and said frankly, "I hate that I was traded like a commodity, but the person who made the agreement with you was my father. I am willing to pay the price of 20 years for him."
"I hope you can figure it out."
"In fact, I am very grateful that you lent a helping hand to my father when he was in deep trouble. Otherwise, I would not have been born."
"I know your birth."
Hearing this, Chie Yamaguchi suddenly felt cold all over and shivered.
"When I saw your father, I saw your birth."
"what!"
Her panicky guess was confirmed, and Chie Yamaguchi could no longer maintain her composure and couldn't wait to ask for a reason.
"No hurry, let's wait for Master Liansheng. Maybe I still need his help tonight."
The surrounding areas returned to their former silence.
As December approached, the temperature in the mountains was much lower than in the city, and the occasional mountain breeze made Chie Yamaguchi shiver constantly.
The bamboo spirit erected a light green barrier towards where Chie Yamaguchi was, to protect her.
Chie Yamaguchi felt the warmth returning to her body and looked again at the bamboo spirit standing on the other side of the clear pond.
Although this god exudes a rich breath of life, he seems to have a sense of old age.
Obviously, He looks very young.
At two or three o'clock in the morning, the sound of footsteps was heard in the quiet and cold bamboo forest.
A bright moon shines on the monks who have come from afar.
When she saw Master Liansheng appear, Chie Yamaguchi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though the other party had just watched him being captured by the gods, now that he was here, he would definitely be able to take him away.
"What a great place where spiritual energy gathers."
Pinggong Qianye looked towards the clear pond in front of him. It was not only a pond, but also a spring, a spiritual spring.
"Without the nourishment of the spiritual spring here, I would not be able to transform from a bamboo into a spirit. If Master Liansheng does not mind, you can call me Bamboo Lord."
As Zhu Jun spoke, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked the water above the clear pond. The surface of the water shimmered and a pool of spiritual spring gurgled out from inside.
Under the bright moonlight, the spiritual spring water seems to be milky white like milk.
"Wow, a spiritual spring. I wonder if drinking a sip of it can extend my life?"
Following behind Hiramiya Chiya, Akechi Mitsuhide came to the edge of the clear pond, squatted down, stretched out his hand to scoop up a handful of pond water and drank a few sips.
“It’s refreshing and has a light sweetness. It tastes much better than the average mineral water on the market.”
As he spoke, Akechi Mitsuhide took a few more big sips and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Seeing his actions, Chie Yamaguchi, who was very close to the lake, also had an urge to drink.
But her modesty prevented her from doing such a thing in front of others.
Hey, the look in Master Liansheng’s eyes… Could it be that Master Liansheng also wants to drink a sip of the spiritual spring?
Probably not?
He is a famous Buddhist monk in Tokyo!
Chie Yamaguchi caught a glimpse of Chiye Hiramiya's gaze from the corner of her eye, and her heart trembled.
