Forced To Survive

As the night darkened, Yun Ranran left the City Lord's Mansion and unknowingly walked on the long street.

Ever since Haotian succeeded in crossing the catastrophe, the Spirit Gathering Formation was on the verge of collapse. Seeing that it could not hold on for a while, the people who had not been happy for a long time fell into misery again.

She felt a little heavy, but everyone insisted on this kind of thing, and Wuxuan couldn't be blamed.

She sighed, and suddenly heard the cry of a woman and a child, looked up, and found that it looked familiar, it was the place where Wuxuan had walked two days ago, when Zhang Zhu, the man of the family, stopped Wuxuan to beg for money.

The woman was holding a ball of white cloth and crying very sadly, and the little girl was also standing aside and crying loudly.

Did Zhang Zhu hit her again? Yun Ranran was a little annoyed, stepped forward and asked, "Sister, why are you so sad?"

The woman looked at her with teary eyes, recognized her after a few breaths, and sobbed, "My man, my man is dead."

Yun Ranran was taken aback, then stunned for a moment.

died? Zhang Zhu is dead?

It turned out that what she was holding was Zhang Zhu's body covered by a white cloth.

She asked her what was going on, and the woman told her.

It turned out that Zhang Zhu begged Wuxuan for money that day, but he refused to give any money to women and children, and used all of it to buy cigarettes and alcohol for himself. Later, he got drunk and gambled, and lost everything and went crazy. In the end, he was beaten to death by someone from the casino.

Those people in the casino were well-informed and found out that the silver was given by the Buddha, so they didn't dare to take it, and even sent back the silver with them, and even added a sum of compensation.

The blood-stained silver rested on the corpse, which was particularly conspicuous.

Yun Ranran's heart skipped a beat, she didn't know why she suddenly remembered Wuxuan's exhortation that day.

[Here are some scraps of silver, take them to live a good life with your family, don't mess around again. 】

At that time, Zhang Zhu fully agreed, saying that he would definitely use the money to take care of his wife and children. She thought that this man could not be trusted at all, and the money would never go into the hands of a woman anyway, but she never thought of getting it back in this way...

Looking at it another way, Zhang Zhu actually fulfilled his promise.

She was rather sad, and comforted the woman: "Don't be too sad, people cannot be resurrected after death."

The woman sighed while wiping her tears: "I'm afraid I will be punished by God if I say it, but I feel a little relieved now that he is gone."

"I used to feel that I couldn't live without him, no matter how much he went too far, I would tolerate it, but now that he is really gone, when I insist on living by myself, I don't think it is difficult."

Yun Ranran didn't expect that she was quite strong.

The woman wiped away her tears, stood up, put the man's body down, and went to the stove to get busy. After a while, a big bowl of hot food was brought out.

She called her daughter and invited Yun Ranran to join them. Yun Ranran sat down with them, but did not eat.

There wasn't much in the first place.

The woman laughed while eating, and shed tears while laughing.

"When he was here, he didn't have a complete set of bowls and chopsticks, and he threw them all over the place. He lost his temper all the time, and he never had a meal with peace of mind."

"I didn't expect that after being married to him for so long, the first time I had a full meal without incident was after he died."

Yun Ranran couldn't help sighing.

The moon was curved, and the moonlight was shallow, making the blood-stained silver particularly bright.

·

After coming out from the woman, the street was empty, and everyone took refuge at home. The spiritual power brought by the spirit gathering array had almost disappeared, and it seemed to be dying.

The hope brought by the so-called Spirit Gathering Formation has no benefit other than causing the city to be injured again.

When Yun Ranran passed by a room, she saw a six or seven-year-old girl. She hid behind the broken window paper and looked at her. On the wooden bed behind her lay a middle-aged woman who was unconscious, with bruises on her body and face. .

The childish voice was full of tears: "Sister, is my mother unable to wake up?"

Yun Ranran couldn't say yes, so she had no choice but to remain silent. Seeing her expression, the girl's eyes dimmed.

Yun Ranran wanted to persuade her, but she couldn't open her mouth, and she couldn't bear to lie to her. Just as she was struggling, someone laughed lightly.

"Of course I'll wake up."

Yun Ranran was startled, turned her head to look, and saw Wuxuan in the night.

The frosty monk's robe lifted away the dense fog of the night, and he walked slowly to her side, looked at the little girl with a smile, and said softly again: "Of course I will wake up."

Yun Ranran sighed in her heart, she thought that Haotian would not fulfill the promise, the little girl got hope, and was completely disappointed in the end, it felt too sad, such a young child couldn't go through this continuously.

So she pulled Wuxuan aside, and said softly: "Buddha, before things are settled, let's not be so sure."

Wuxuan smiled and said: "Oh, but as long as the gathering spirit array is repaired, it will indeed wake up."

Yun Ranran looked at the innocent Buddha, but didn't want to tell him the **** truth directly, fearing that he would not be able to accept it, so she whispered: "This is not necessarily the case, just in case something happens..."

Wuxuan asked back: "What can happen?"

ah this...

After careful consideration, Yun Ranran felt that he had to speak directly, and simply said: "I think, this **** Haotian is not a good person, and those life-saving words that Lei Jieshi cried and begged for cannot be true, and he will definitely not cultivate for everyone. Lingzhen, you have to keep your eyes open, don't be fooled again."

Wuxuan stood quietly, with a calm expression and a slight smile, as if it was a simple question.

"If I was really cheated, would you blame me?"

Yun Ranran was startled, she had heard too many similar gossip along the way.

【Buddha clearly wants to let go, Haotian will be seriously injured, why doesn't he stop. 】

【It’s nothing but hypocrisy to talk about universal salvation. 】

[Compared to being directly bad like Haotian, people like Fozi are even more hated. 】

Did he hear that too?

She then said, "Why should I blame you?"

"It's you who stand in the center of the storm, it's you who watch Haotian pleading with tears and swearing, it's you who hesitates to save or not, and fights against your own beliefs."

"Under such circumstances, isn't it right for you to make any choice?"

"No one can make the absolute right choice every time, there will always be mistakes."

"Damn it, shouldn't it be Haotian who used your kindness to deceive you?"

Yun Ranran said again: "Look, when you made a choice, I didn't reach out to hold you, I didn't do anything, I willingly gave you the right to choose, even if you really made a wrong choice, why should you blame me?" What about you who worked hard?"

Wuxuan looked at her quietly and did not speak for a long time.

Yun Ranran was embarrassed by him, and couldn't help asking: "Are you angry? Blame me for being too straightforward..."

Wuxuan smiled and shook his head: "No one has ever told me this before, I am surprised."

Yun Ranran said: "I'm just talking nonsense..."

Wuxuan said, "What the girl said is very touching."

ah this...

This is an exaggeration, Yun Ranran is not very embarrassed, thinking to solve the little girl's matter first, said: "Haotian will not come to cultivate the spirit gathering array, this little girl has experienced hope to despair once, She can no longer suffer this pain."

Wuxuan nodded earnestly: "If she can cultivate the Spirit Gathering Formation, she won't suffer any more pain."

Yun Ranran was really having a headache right now, her feelings were for nothing, so she had no choice but to say: "Anyway, don't be with this kid..."

Just as he was talking, there were bursts of buzzing in his ears.

She looked up in surprise, and saw that emerald-gold branches and leaves suddenly appeared out of thin air in the midair of the night, and in the blink of an eye, the branches and leaves were luxuriant, covering the entire sky.

Magnificent, magnificent and shocking.

Golden water droplets quickly condensed on the branches and leaves, and after a while, they suddenly fell, and the entire Jingyun City was instantly enveloped in golden rain.

Light green healing power is mixed in, infiltrating every corner of the city.

The dead trees sprouted branches again, and the dying flowers once again sucked up their juices, opening their crumbling flower buds.

For a time, the city was full of flowers.

The sound of growth is everywhere.

Yun Ranran was stunned, what's going on?

Did Haotian really fulfill his promise? Impossible... Such a person... But everything in front of me is so real...

She looked at Wuxuan dumbfounded.

Wuxuan stood quietly in the night, smiling with curved eyes.

"Maybe he was influenced by the little monk."

Probation?

Yun Ranran stared blankly at the sky, unable to imagine Haotian being influenced.

She listened intently, and said strangely: "Did Buddha hear it? There was a faint cry."

Wuxuan shook his head: "I never heard of it."

Yun Ranran followed the cry and found that it should come from the hill behind the city. Isn't that the location of the core formation? She wanted to listen carefully, but it was gone again, so she said awkwardly, "I'm probably hallucinating."

Wuxuan laughed and said, "Maybe it's the people in the city who were healed and cried happily."

Yun Ranran thought about it carefully, and felt that it made sense, so she didn't go into it further, and suddenly remembered something, and said, "My lord, do you still remember Zhang Zhu?"

Wuxuan looked at her suspiciously: "Who is it?"

"I just met yesterday, that man who begs for money from you regardless of his wife and children."

Wuxuan showed a look of sudden realization.

Yun Ranran lowered her voice and whispered, "Don't be surprised when I tell you."

Wuxuan looked at her with a smile.

Yun Ranran continued: "He is dead, he went to gamble and was beaten to death."

Wuxuan pressed his eyelashes slightly, covered his eyes, and said softly, "It's really unexpected."

Yun Ranran thought that he was so kind, and was afraid that he would blame himself, so he persuaded him: "It's none of your business, you meant to help, and it's all his own fault."

Wuxuan said, "Young monk thought he would reform himself."

Yun Ranran sighed and said: "The world is unpredictable, but do you know that, like fate, the money has returned to the hands of women and children."

Wuxuan smiled and said, "It's such a coincidence."

Yun Ranran said: "Yes, it's amazing."

Wu Xuan laughed out loud.

Yun Ranran thought, Fozi is really good-tempered, it is so easy to stay with him, and he is actually the target of his strategy, and he really made money.

The two walked along the long street, and when they reached a small teahouse, they sat down and ordered two cups of tea.

Wuxuan held the teacup dignifiedly, and lifted the lid gracefully. This guy was meticulous in everything he did.

Yun Ranran looked at his frosty white monk robe, and silently began to think wildly, how should such a Buddha attack?

He looks pure and soft, and he is not wary of others. Is she going to talk sweetly or ask for warmth?

If the strategy is successful, if she hugs him, will he close his eyes shyly? Can you say no with a flushed mouth, but your body is very honest?

Then it got out of hand, the more I thought about it, the drool almost fell down...

Wuxuan suddenly asked: "What is the girl thinking?"

Yun Ranran came back from distraction, froze, her face turned red, "I, I was thinking that it would be really great for the common people to get the Spirit Gathering Formation."

Wuxuan rolled his eyes sideways and smiled lightly: "Really?"

Yun Ranran looked away guiltily, and nodded indiscriminately.

Wuxuan glanced at her, and suddenly said: "Girl, don't move, something is stuck between your hair."

Yun Ranran was taken aback for a moment, he had already leaned over.

The distance was too close, so close that she dared not move.

He was very close, but he didn't touch her at all, and he restrained himself quite well.

There was a bewitching sandalwood fragrance on his body, a woody fragrance mixed with a sweet milky fragrance, which made her a little lost for a moment.

And he was too close, what made her even more stiff was that his Adam's apple was only a short peanut-sized distance from her lips.

As long as she moves a little, she will kiss her without any accidents. Her cheeks are hot, and her thoughts are instantly messed up.

As if she was held in his arms, she looked at the Adam's apple that was close at hand, swallowed hard, and made a "gudong" sound.

The man seemed to be laughing, she saw his Adam's apple quivering slightly, but she didn't hear the laughter, she suspected it was her own illusion for a moment.

The blood all over her body rushed to her face, it was so hot that it almost smoked.

Between good and evil.

She thought that the Buddha must have been unintentional. A person as abstinent and beautiful as him would not deliberately get so close to her. It was because of her dirty and evil intentions that she fell into this kind of moral test.

What should I do, kiss or not?

It's too close, she can't control it, but she will be angry if she kisses Buddha, right? He must feel that she is a loose woman, and all his affection for her will disappear.

What to do, what to do, she couldn't control it.

Evil comes from the side of the gall, seeking wealth and wealth, she couldn't be bothered anymore, she pouted on the spot, planning to have this forbidden kiss...

Just when she closed her eyes and was about to get closer, the man suddenly went away, and then said in surprise: "What are you doing, girl?"

Yun Ranran was still pouting: ...

God...

Yun Ranran withdrew her mouth, squeezed her mouth, blushing about to explode, and said awkwardly: "Just... move around..."

Wuxuan smiled, and pointed to her hair: "There is a piece of broken leaf here, it is not convenient for me to touch the girl, the girl can take it by herself."

Yun Ranran shed tears of regret for her filthiness, what a pure and noble man he is.

She stretched out her hand to touch her hair, but it was not in the right place.

Wuxuan stretched out his hand and hung it on her fingertips to point out for her. He was very close, but he didn't touch her no matter what, which made her more painful.

I can't wait to grab Wuxuan's hand...

After finally taking off the broken leaves, she felt that half of her life was lost, and after Wuxuan just looked over with a casual look, she could imagine indescribable...

Outrageous...what the **** is going on...

Yun Ranran finally calmed down after drinking seventeen or eight cups of cold tea, and she didn't even dare to look at Wu Xuan's eyes.

Wuxuan put down the teacup in his hand, and said to Yun Ranran, "It's even deeper, I'll take the girl back."

Yun Ranran nodded dizzily.

The two walked towards the inn together, and soon saw the signboard of Jingyun Inn, and there were lanterns hanging on both sides of the signboard, illuminating the gate.

A slender young man leaned against the door frame, looking at the two with displeasure.

When Yun Ranran left, Xiao Qi and Qing He were still asleep, but they didn't expect to wake up when they came back, so they happily ran over: "Xiao Qi, are you awake?"

The young man said with cold eyes: "You don't care, you just know that Monk Genye is outside."

These words were too harsh, Yun Ranran immediately said: "Xiao Qi, don't talk nonsense."

Wuxuan didn't get angry, and was as calm as ever: "It doesn't get in the way, but if you care about it, it will cause chaos. He is just worried about the girl."

The Buddha is really understanding, Yun Ranran sighed in his heart, the last person who was so understanding was Qinghe.

Qing He was drinking in the hall by the window. He looked out from the window and said with a smile, "Tian Yan, what an idiot."

"I also think Wuxuan is an eyesore, so I won't scold in person."

"This guy Wuxuan is scary."

But Yun Ranran outside the door saw Xiao Qi's face getting darker and darker, and didn't want to cause a quarrel, so he simply sent Wu Xuan to a distance, and said apologetically: "Little Master, I'm really sorry, you go back first."

Wuxuan looked over her head and landed on the young man, then retracted his gaze and smiled slightly: "Don't worry about it."

"On the contrary, I think girlishness, it seems that it is easy to attract bad things, does the girl notice?"

Bad stuff? Yun Ranran was at a loss, did he mean ghosts or something? Suddenly thinking of Xiaoqi and Xiaojing, he hurriedly said: "Buddha misunderstood, they are not..."

Wuxuan shook his head: "Not those two, those two are very cute, and they don't have any intention of harming you."

ah? no? Yun Ranran was even more puzzled, so what bad things followed her? She didn't notice it at all, so she asked, "What is it?"

Wuxuan looked at her for a while, but did not respond directly. Instead, he took off the Bodhi beads that he had worn for many years, and motioned for her to raise her hand. Yun Ranran raised her hand obediently, and he gently wrapped the Bodhi beads around her wrist. Another circle, very restrained and polite, didn't touch her at all.

"This is my personal possession, the bodhi bead. I will give it to the girl today to keep you safe."

Ah, is this a gift?

The beads are warm and moist, and they are very comfortable to wear on the wrist. Yun Ranran was overjoyed, and said, "Thank you, Buddha."

Wuxuan said softly: "It's not something valuable, if you get tired of it, throw it away."

Yun Ranran immediately said: "How can I do it, I will treasure it as a treasure."

Wuxuan looked at her for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."

After Wuxuan walked away, Yun Ranran walked back to the inn gate, saw the black-faced Xiao Qi, stretched out his hand to grab his wrist, and coaxed: "Okay, my fault, I should have come back to see you guys sooner." , but what did you Tongqing and senior brother do, why did you sleep for so long?"

The boy turned his face away, and his tone was a little annoyed: "Don't worry about it."

Yun Ranran also disagreed with him, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, no matter, as long as people are free, are you hungry? I'll cook something for you."

Just as the young man was about to say no, his gaze suddenly sank. He stretched out his hand to hold her wrist, and when he lifted his sleeve, he saw the string of bodhi beads.

Yun Ranran wanted to withdraw his hand, but the guy held it tightly, and asked in a deep voice, "What is this?"

Yun Ranran said, "Bodhi Pearl."

The boy's tone was cold and firm: "Wuxuan gave it?"

Yun Ranran had no choice but to say "hmm".

The boy looked obviously unhappy: "This is his personal thing, do you want it too?"

Yun Ranran thought to herself, isn't it just for personal things...

Before he finished thinking, the young man's eyes turned cold, he stretched out his hand suddenly, and pulled off the string of beads very quickly, and then threw it outside the inn with a "gudong" sound, and disappeared into the night.

All this happened so fast, Yun Ranran didn't realize it for a long time, but when she came back to her senses, the beads were gone, and anger surged into her heart in an instant: "Xiao Qi, are you crazy?"

The young man said coldly: "This bead is not clean, I will accompany you to seek it again."

He just gave it away, and she still promised to be the most important, how long has it been? If Wuxuan knew that she lost it just after wearing it, she must be very sad. How would she face him next time?

She glared at Xiao Qi angrily, pushed him away, and looked for him on the long street outside the inn.

Xiao Qi pursed her lips, her face full of displeasure, what a crap, so precious!

But he saw that the girl was anxious, so he couldn't help but follow her.

Yun Ranran was getting angry and said loudly: "Don't come near me!"

Xiao Qi paused, and silently moved a little far away, but the girl was still angry and didn't allow him to follow.

How did he think that a broken bead was worth her losing her temper? Isn't there a lot of that stuff? I didn't understand how I thought about it, and I suddenly became depressed.

However, the cat was still in the corner where the girl couldn't see him, and the cat followed him to find the beads.

An oil lamp was lit near the window in the lobby of the inn. A handsome young man in white was resting his chin with one hand, watching with relish, when a string of beads flashed before his eyes, and they slammed out of the window with a "bang ji". on stone bricks.

Oh, that **** Tianyan threw it.

vulgar!

Jianxiu is always so impolite, seeing his junior sister in a hurry, looking for her all over the place.

With crooked eyes, he said with a smile: "How can you throw other people's things casually." Then he stretched out his index finger, and a cluster of black flames rose up with a light flick.

Lying on the stone bricks, the bodhi beads containing the spiritual power of the mighty Buddha ignited easily and spontaneously.

Soon, only fly ash remained.

After a gust of wind, there is no residue left.

Yun Ranran was looking for this place, but found that she couldn't find it even after searching every corner. She was in a hurry, and when she saw Qing He by the window, she leaned over and asked, "Brother, have you seen a string of bodhi beads?"

Qing He asked seriously, "What does it look like?"

Yun Ranran recalled: "Small-leaf red sandalwood beads, a few beeswax beads."

Qing He asked again: "How big is the bead?"

Yun Ranran stretched out her hand and made a rough gesture: "It's about this big."

Qing He nodded, and asked again: "How many?"

Yun Ranran said: "One hundred and eight."

Seeing Qinghe's question so detailed, Yun Ranran looked at him expectantly: "Senior brother, have you met?"

Qing He smiled and shook his head: "I haven't seen it before."

Yun Ranran: ...

I don't know why I asked so many questions... Yun Ranran felt depressed, so she went back to the street to look for it.

Qing He propped his cheeks lazily, his eyes followed the girl's back, and the smile in his eyes faded away.

"How long have you been wearing it? I remember it so clearly."

Chang Qi was stuffed in his sleeve, and murmured softly, "It's so sour."

Qinghe: ...

·

When Wuxuan returned to the residence, the younger brother was waiting at the door, and when he dozed off little by little, he heard the sound of the garden fence being opened.

He ran over sleepily and asked, "Brother, you are back."

Wu Xuan nodded.

The little monk sized him up for a moment, then suddenly said, "Senior brother, why do you look happy? What happened?"

Wuxuan looked into the distance: "It's nothing."

The little monk asked again: "Brother, where is your Bodhi Pearl?"

"Give it to two predestined people."

The little monk didn't understand, so he muttered: "Two predestined people?"

Wuxuan chuckled lightly: "Probably because I couldn't sleep well."
