“Slowly, slowly.”
Watching the wobbly little one, Qiao Ci'er smiled, her voice gentle.
“Eee, aaa.”
The little fellow waved his arms, suddenly swayed, and sat down on the ground, staring blankly at the Bodhi tree in front of him.
He had been extremely lively, curious about everything, but now he sat still, as if the old tree in front of him had a strong attraction for him.
The air was still.
A child, an old tree, at this moment there was an unspeakable harmony, an indescribable feeling filled the small courtyard.
“Huh?”
Qiao Ci'er raised her beautiful eyebrows, a trace of surprise in her beautiful eyes: "No wonder Master said that little brother is destined for the Buddha..."
The little fellow sat down in front of the tree, without saying a word, but inexplicably gave her a sense of peace and tranquility.
In a trance, it seemed as if she had seen a great Buddhist virtue.
Although the illusion only flashed by, Qiao Ci'er was still a little surprised, and couldn't help but stop, not stepping forward to pick up the little fellow.
“Qiao Damo.....”
While the little fellow was staring blankly at the Bodhi tree, An Qisheng was also looking at this future Supreme Awakened One who had only been born for two days.
His endowment was amazing, and he had his own great luck, even if he was still in an extremely ignorant state, he actually noticed his abnormality.
However, that was all. Even if this little fellow was the future Supreme Awakened One, he would never be able to discover him at this time.
Being able to discover his difference was just a matter of luck.
And luck, crossing the heavens, he who had once suppressed an era, naturally also had luck in his body.
That Qiao Damo could see himself was his luck, and that he could see the birth of this future Supreme Awakened One on the first day he entered this world in a dream, was it not also his own luck?
It should be known that, not to mention the other paths of Huangtian, the Earth Immortal Path alone, the four seas, four continents, and six heavens, were inhabited by far more than trillions of living beings.
How could they see each other without cause?
"This little fellow is an excellent seedling for cultivation, does Mr. Monster want to accept a disciple..." The Three Hearts Blue Spirit Child poked his head out, also looking at this little fellow.
He had seen too many people and civilizations, and could see at a glance the endowment of this little fellow who was as transparent as glass.
“Accept a disciple?”
An Qisheng remained noncommittal, but he had no intention of accepting a disciple in his heart.
The child in front of him was not an ordinary person, he was the Supreme Awakened One who would inevitably embark on his own path, and even the great achiever of Buddhism in this world.
Accepting a disciple meant being able to impart Dao and resolve doubts, but he might not be able to teach him. Accepting a disciple at this time might lead to great karma in the future.
“You don’t want to accept him as a disciple?” The Three Hearts Blue Spirit Child was a little dazed, and could vaguely perceive the solemnity in An Qisheng’s heart.
He had underestimated how much he valued this child.
“Why accept a disciple?”
An Qisheng shook his head in his heart.
However, although he had no intention of accepting a disciple, for him, being able to witness the path of enlightenment of a Supreme Awakened One was already a great benefit, so why stop him and try to help him grow by pulling him up?
Not to mention, according to the trajectory of fate seen from the Dao Yi Diagram, this one will inevitably have a great conflict with the Six Sages.
In fact, having a dazzlingly bright and strong person who can attract everyone's attention in front of him is of great benefit to him in finding the person hidden in the dark.
He didn't want to accept a disciple and take advantage of others for nothing, but instead, he wanted to make a fair deal with him.
Buzz~
With a thought in An Qisheng's mind, a Bodhi seed fell silently from among the lush branches and leaves.
Chirp~~~
In the small courtyard, the sound of cicadas suddenly became loud, attracting Qiao Ci'er's attention.
She raised her head slightly, and saw a fat golden cicada startled and窜out, flapping its wings and making a low, thunderous buzzing sound.
“This spirit rhyme golden cicada has Father's aura on it?”
Qiao Ci'er was a little surprised. She raised her素白palm, and lightly pinched the golden cicada in her hand. She was a little surprised: “Does Father still have the childlike innocence of raising cicadas?”
Pa ta~
Almost at the same time, an emerald green Bodhi seed fell from the sky and hit Qiao Moke's forehead, which had only a few baby hairs, making a crisp sound.
“Huh?”
Qiao Ci'er released the golden cicada and stepped forward, surprised, that she hadn't noticed the fall of this Bodhi seed?
She was about to pick up the Bodhi seed when she heard a childish voice calling out to her: "Ah, elder sister."
Qiao Ci'er's heart trembled.
She saw her younger brother's chubby little hands holding the Bodhi seed, looking back at her, with a pure smile on his slightly round face:
“Mine.”
“Little brother, you can already speak?”
Qiao Ci'er picked up the little fellow, pinching his chubby face in disbelief.
She wasn't surprised that Qiao Damo could walk the day after he was born, because his mother had been pregnant for nine years and had taken countless elixirs to nourish herself.
But to be able to speak the day after birth...
“Yes, can.”
The little fellow nodded, his fair and round face full of curiosity, constantly捏the Bodhi seed in his hand, which was about the same size as his fist.
“My little brother is born extraordinary, and will definitely have great achievements in the future.”
Qiao Ci'er took a deep breath, gently touching her younger brother's soft face, and smiled warmly.
Although she was a little surprised, there shouldn't be any problems with her younger brother's words.
After all, this was the talent that even her master had praised.
The little fellow didn't speak anymore, clutching the Bodhi seed, and fell asleep as if he was tired.
Qiao Ci'er shook her head, and left with her younger brother in her arms. Before leaving, she glanced at the old tree.
Among the lush branches and leaves, there was nothing but the startled golden cicada. Beneath the vibrant appearance, it seemed to have already decayed.
More importantly, there were no other Bodhi seeds on this Bodhi tree at all.
“What did Mr. Monster do?”
The Three Hearts Blue Spirit Child was at a loss: "Is he trying to enlighten him?"
“Just leaving a wisp of imprint, it's not enlightenment.”
Watching the two people gradually drift away, listening to the faint chirping of cicadas, An Qisheng's heart moved slightly, and he fell into silence again.
He had some things that needed to be completed with the help of Qiao Damo, but whether he accepted it or not depended on his own choice.
It's just that Qiao Damo is still young, even if he is born extraordinary, his mind has not yet matured. If he were to impose influence at this time, how would it be different from欺人?
.......
Pi li pa la~
The sound of firecrackers rising and falling kept ringing in Linxi City, breaking the tranquility of the early morning.
In the "Ke Zai Lai" restaurant, where wisps of smoke were rising, a wealthy merchant who had come from afar opened the window on the third floor and saw锣鼓敲打 everywhere, and couldn't help but be a little surprised:
“Xiao Zhen, go and find out what happened.”
A servant dressed as a bookboy nodded when he heard the words, and with a slight movement of his body, he had already left the door.
He was back in no time.
“Young master, some people are inviting gods......”
The bookboy replied: "A statue of a god named 'Julingshen (Giant Spirit God)' was circulated from the Zhenhai (Pacifying the Sea) King's Mansion some days ago. It is said that this god has supreme神通. As long as you bathe, burn incense, and kowtow sincerely, you can get divine assistance. It is said that it can speed up cultivation......"
“Julingshen?”
The wealthy merchant stroked his beard and was slightly surprised: "Kowtowing to the gods to get divine assistance, and can also speed up cultivation? Is there such a thing?"
“The things circulated from the Zhenhai King's Mansion are naturally believed by ordinary people, after all, that one is the 'Second King' of the Qi Tang Kingdom.”
The bookboy muttered in a low voice, with a hint of ridicule in his tone.
“Alright! Such words are not allowed to be said in this Linxi City, otherwise, if someone hears it, you and I will die without a whole corpse.”
The man dressed as a wealthy merchant glanced at the bookboy and warned: "The garrison troops in various towns have been changing recently, we need to leave as soon as possible."
“Linxi City has already been under martial law, it's not that easy for us to leave?”
The bookboy shook his head: "Not only us, but several other families have also been滞留in Linxi City for many days......"
Once the face is torn apart, Qiao Moke's actions are no longer restrained.
With Linxi City as the center, the garrison troops of the entire Nanhua (Southern China) Dao and even the eighteen surrounding cities have been changing.
As the former commander of the national army, destroying various countries and capturing more than half of the territory of the Qi Tang Kingdom, it is natural that the Zhenhai King was jealous of by the Qi Tang Kingdom君.
“The news has already been sent out, whether we can retreat or not is not the key, and besides, it's not like there is no chance......”
The wealthy merchant looked to the north of the city, where a restaurant as tall as the Zhenhai King's Mansion was located amidst the smoke: "That master of the Shenfeng (Divine Wind) Dao is already a little impatient......"
......
“Julingshen? Brother Zhao, what do you think Qiao Moke is doing?”
Lin Anxia sat by the window, overlooking half the city, in slight contemplation.
‘Xianke (Immortal Guest) Tower’ is the number one restaurant in Linxi, and from this, you can see the entire city.
Naturally, you can also see the places where firecrackers are being burned, and the statues of gods draped in red silk being welcomed into their homes by every household.
“Putting on an act?”
A refined middle-aged man叩打the table, with thoughtful eyes: “I have never heard of any kowtowing to the gods to get divine assistance. Even if divine power is endless, why would it support these mortals?”
“Not so. I have met Qiao Moke, his cultivation may not be the first in Qi Tang, but his fighting skills are extremely high, and ordinary Golden Core cultivators are no match for him.”
Lin Anxia's eyes were deep, as if穿过the high sky to see the statues of gods: “How could such a general who has spent his life on the battlefield believe in gods? There must be something truly divine about it, otherwise, it would not be like this.”
Lin Anxia's expression was calm, but his heart was full of thoughts.
He knew very well what kind of person Qiao Moke was. Such a person would only believe in himself and would never place his hopes on gods.
“Whether there is something divine or not, you can tell at a glance, why bother guessing in vain?”
The refined middle-aged man Zhao Changlin smiled lightly: “Qiao Moke has made up his mind to rebel, so you and I naturally don't need to care so much.”
“That's what I said......”
Lin Anxia suddenly hesitated, not simply because he was afraid of Qiao Moke, but because if the statue was really the statue of a true god.
Peeking at it without permission might offend the gods.
Unlike ordinary mortals, their Shenfeng Dao is a great sect that can hear divine decrees, so they naturally know how terrifying immortals and gods are.
“Heh~”
Zhao Changlin smiled indifferently, his eyes lowered, as if洞穿the void, fixing on a certain statue of a god on a long street:
“If Brother Lin is worried, then let Zhao try out what this so-called Julingshen is!”
