Chapter 308 Monk
"Why are you here all of a sudden? You don't want to enter the other world through the cracks, do you?" the person in charge of the base thought.
Wang An came to the side of the crack and looked at the crack.
There was no brilliance shining in the crack, just a deep and bottomless crack, like a big open mouth, with some fluorescence slightly visible in the center.
Wang An released his true energy, blended it into the cracks, and penetrated inside bit by bit.
The reason why he suddenly came here was because he thought of four words - "shattering the void".
Originally, it was just a word in a novel. Later, Wang An also saw similar records in some ancient books. Yesterday, while practicing, he suddenly thought of these four words.
The so-called "Shattered Void" is not about punching a hole in the sky. It is very likely that a special method is used to open a space channel and enter the other world from one world, which is equivalent to a means of ascension.
Thinking of this, he thought of the space crack in the southwest, and wanted to come and take a look, so he came.
Through his perception, the crack in front of him gave him a very strange feeling.
There is a large amount of energy in this channel. This energy is composed of some tiny "particles". Let's put it this way, they are in a weird oval shape, constantly rotating, keeping this channel open.
This structure seems to be relatively stable and will not be destroyed.
Buzz, just when Wang An was carefully feeling the inside of this passage, a breath suddenly rushed over from the other end, just like a gust of wind, but this wind was mixed with energy and rushed over.
“Well, someone is coming.” Wang An stared at the crack.
“What do you think he is doing?”
In the command room in the base, several people were observing Wang An through surveillance cameras.
"Who knows, this kind of person's thoughts are something that we can't easily guess, but is it appropriate for us to just look at him like this? I heard that he has a strong sense of perception and can sense that others are spying on him secretly. "
"We are not spying on him, we are monitoring the crack. If something comes out of it again and he doesn't help deal with it, we will be in big trouble."
“That’s what I said, but what if he is unhappy?”
At this moment, the alarm sounded.
“Zhou Cao, are you a crow’s mouth?”
Buzz, a streak of blood flew out from the crack. The automatic fire control radar in the base immediately captured the target and prepared to launch an attack.
As soon as the **** light appeared, Wang An slapped the man away with a palm. The man fell to the ground, rolled dozens of times, and hit a concrete wall before stopping.
“Holy shit, are you so domineering?” Everyone in the command room was stunned when they saw this scene.
"Don't rush to attack yet, I think he can handle it by himself." Upon seeing this, the person in charge of the base hurriedly issued an order to stop firing.
The man handling it from the crack stared at Wang An.
This man was dressed in blood-red long-distance running, his face was as pale as white paper, without a trace of blood, and he had a strange aura secretly on his body. As soon as this person appeared, Wang An felt that something was not right about his aura, and then he slapped him away without hesitation.
“I didn’t expect that there are people like you in this world!” As he spoke, the man suddenly flashed and rushed towards Wang An at a fast speed. From a distance, he looked like a ray of light. But before he reached the halfway point, he was thrown away by Wang An's palm and hit the solid concrete again.
Wow, blood spurted out from his mouth.
Wang An made a palm move in the air, and his true energy flew out and submerged into his body.
Hiss, this man shuddered and felt an extremely cold breath piercing into his body. The true energy in his body was instantly frozen. The whole person seemed to have fallen into an ice hole and was frozen instantly. Stiff.
"so cold!"
After dealing with this person, Wang An returned to the edge of the crack in a flash and continued to observe and sense the crack.
"what's the situation?"
“That person should have been restrained, send someone over immediately to take a look.”
"yes!"
The soldiers who were heavily armed and wearing protective clothing slowly approached and checked and found that the man had indeed lost his ability to resist. Successfully capturing an intruder alive without firing a shot was not an easy task.
“Alas, is this the legendary thigh-hugging?”
“Hey, you said if he could stay in our base, we would save a lot of trouble!”
“Think beautifully.”
The fact that the invaders were subdued by Wang An in an instant was quickly reported to the capital.
“Tsk, this is high-end combat power!”
“How long will it take for our bureau to cultivate such a person?”
“We are working hard to cultivate this, and it will probably take some time.”
In the mountains of the southwest, Wang An stayed next to that crack for a day and a night. He has gained something and has some ideas.
The so-called Shattered Void is not "broken" randomly, it should require a specific time, a specific place, and specific conditions.
Just like the passage in front of us, it should be a relatively weak point where the two worlds meet. To open such a passage requires very keen perception and powerful strength, both of which are indispensable.
“What’s in here? What’s it like in the other world?”
Wang An stood on the edge of the crack and had an urge to go to that world to see that side of the world, but in the end he successfully controlled himself.
“Now is not the time, wait a little longer.”
He stayed by the crack for two days and then left.
"gone?"
“Probably left.”
"Why did he leave? At least I can sleep peacefully while he is here." said the person in charge of the base.
The base fell into a brief calm after Wang An left. Lu Xiangyi came to the mountain village not long after he returned. He brought some lists and a map.
The list is a list of industries that will be destroyed and the backbones of the industry that will be arrested. From this list, you can see that the so-called balance industry has not developed as much in these years.
“Aren’t the top brass of your Special Affairs Bureau surprised when they saw this list?”
Such an unstable force actually took root in the empire, spread its branches, and developed into a behemoth. If this caused some kind of terrorist incident in the empire, it would not be too easy.
“Of course I was surprised, so surprised that they held a closed-door meeting for a whole day, and then launched a larger cleanup operation.” Lu Xiangyi said with a smile.
The map he brought was a map of another world.
"This is the map of the Shu Han. Of course it is only a part. It is a map obtained after aggregating and processing the information from the invaders who were captured alive. The city closest to the crack is called Yushan City. Originally, there was a person here. As a city lord, he controls an area of hundreds of miles around Yushan City, but now it has been occupied by a demon."
Wang An looked at the map in front of him.
“Is this Shushan Mountain?” He pointed to an obvious mountain among them.
“Yes, Shushan Mountain is said to be the center of this world, reaching the heavenly realm.”
“Heaven?!” Wang An was slightly startled after hearing this.
"It's just a legend. They don't know the details. They haven't even been to Shushan at all." Lu Xiangyi said.
“It’s getting more interesting.”
"Take a look, what is this?"
“This is the Buddhist Vajra?” Lu Xiangyi had a horrified expression on his face.
“Or a photo handed over by a stranger?”
Wang An nodded.
“This is to arouse Mr.’s interest in that world!”
"Sooner or later I will go and have a look, but not now." Wang And said.
Suddenly, the weather became warmer.
On this day, a monk came to the village to beg for alms. His monk's clothes were patched and in rags. He seemed to have walked a long way and was dusty, but his eyes were bright.
The people in the village were very enthusiastic and gave him some food and drinking water.
“Thank you so much to the donor.” The monks returned the gifts one by one. I happened to meet Li Xinzhu who was coming back from outside carrying half a cow.
“Emitābha.” When the monk saw Li Xinzhu, he clasped his palms together and recited the name of the Buddha.
“Where do monks come from?” Li Xinzhu asked with a smile.
“The poor monk came from the west.”
“Oh, do you want to eat cows?” He pointed to the beef in his hand.
“Okay.” Unexpectedly, the monk nodded.
“Hey, you monk, you are not polite, I am just being polite.” Li Xinzhu said with a smile.
"Okay, just wait here. When the beef is cooked, I will bring you a bowl."
"Donor, wait a minute, I think the donor has the appearance of a diamond and is destined to my Buddhist school." The monk said.
"Oh, really, that won't work. I like eating meat and beating people. If the four elements are not empty and the six roots are not clean, I can't enter your Buddhist sect." Li Xinzhu said with a smile.
“My Buddha inspires all living beings and also subdues and eliminates demons.”
"I won't talk to you anymore. If you really want to eat, just wait here. I'll cook it and bring you a portion." After saying that, Li Xinzhu took the cow and left. Unexpectedly, the monk followed him. I went outside Wang An's old house and waited quietly under the big tree at the entrance of the alley.
Li Xinzhu returned home to process the beef. At noon, Wang An also came down from the mountain. He saw the monk early in the morning.
“There was a monk standing at the entrance of the alley.”
“Really? You actually followed him. He was waiting to eat beef.” Li Xinzhu said with a smile.
"I saw him at the entrance of the village and said something casually. I didn't expect that the monk actually followed him. He also said that I had some Vajra image and was related to their Buddhism. Isn't this nonsense? I am Vajra and what are you? , Buddha?"
When the beef was cooked, Li Xinzhu actually went out with a small basin of beef.
“I want to see if this monk eats it.”
"Thank you, donor." Unexpectedly, the monk actually took the beef that Li Xinzhu handed over, poured it into his own alms bowl, and then ate it one bite at a time.
“Hey, you monk is quite interesting.” Li Xinzhu smiled directly when he saw this.
“It’s just a little bit of beef. It doesn’t tell you how to practice Buddhism.” The monk said truthfully.
"Then you eat slowly. If there's not enough, there's still some over there. We've stewed it in a big pot!"
“Please help me, Lord,” the monk said.
Li Xinzhu returned to the house.
“I didn’t expect that the monk actually ate beef.” Li Xinzhu said after entering the room.
"That monk is not an ordinary person." Wang An took a sip of the soup. From such a distance, Wang An could feel that the monk's aura was far stronger than that of ordinary people. He was just a little bit worse than Li Xinzhu. He was a person with real abilities.
“Really, are you the same person?”
“It should be a Buddhist monk.” Wang An nodded.
Under the big tree, the monk ate very slowly and seriously. In the end, he ate all the beef in the alms bowl, not even the soup was left. He stood under the tree and thought for a while, then walked up to the old house, stood at the door and knocked on the door.
“The monk is here.” Wang An said in the room.
Li Xinzhu came to the yard.
“Is there something wrong, monk?”
“Thank you so much, donor.” The monk clasped his palms together and said.
“You’re welcome, monk. Is it delicious?”
“Things that satisfy your hunger can quench your temporary hunger and thirst.” the monk said.
“What did the monk want to say?”
“The donor has a predestined relationship with my Buddhist sect, so he is willing to join my Buddhist sect.”
“I already said that I don’t want to.”
“Amitabha.” The monk put his palms together. Wang An stood at the door and stared at the monk. The monk seemed to feel Wang An's eyes glancing into the room.
Wang An smiled at the monk. The monk clasped his palms together and smiled. Suddenly his smile froze on his face, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes.
He suddenly took a long step to the door of the house, opened it, but did not enter the door, just stared at Wang An.
"Is there something wrong, monk?" Wang An looked at the monk.
“Amitabha, donor”
Wang An raised his hand and landed on his shoulder. The next moment he was speechless. The meridians and muscles coming out of his throat were sealed.
“Let’s go out and talk.”
The monk with a horrified expression on his face, as if he saw the Buddha standing in front of him, nodded and followed Wang An out of the yard, followed by Li Xinzhu.
"You can talk now." The three people came to the alley, and Wang An let go of his hand.
“The donor has the appearance of a Buddhist Arhat,” the monk said.
“I don’t care about Arhats, Vajras, Buddhist fate, these things, and I don’t want to hear them. Monk, leave here quickly and don’t come back again.” Wang An said calmly.
The monk still wanted to speak, but Wang An glared at him and swallowed his words again. He bowed with both hands and left angrily.
"This monk has some discernment." Li Xinzhu said with a smile as he looked at the monk's leaving figure.
“Monk is very good at deceiving people.” Wang An said calmly.
“Well, you were told that when he said that I had the image of Buddhist Vajra, I was really happy deep down.”
Thousands of miles away, in the northwest, in the territory of thousands of miles, there are countless temples. In a temple, a skinny old monk squatted and chanted sutras.
Ah, a shrill roar suddenly came from outside the temple.
With a whoop, the curtain was blown open by the strong wind, and after a short while, a man walked in covered in blood.
“Uncle, it still doesn’t work.”
