Ruins of the past

While Chu Qiguang was reading, a long period of history emerged in his mind.

With the emergence of the first large-scale demon contamination more than two hundred years ago, the Buddha's fire, which can grant power and knowledge, became a poison-like existence.

The monks who were given the Buddha's fire fell into the devil's path one after another.

So when the Buddhas faced this situation, they had two different ideas.

Some still have hope for the future and want to temporarily seal the Buddha's fire to prevent the fire from spreading. Wait until the future comes up with a solution to the demon stain, and then release the Buddha's fire again. Some people call them the Seal Faction.

Some are pessimistic about the future, believing that demonic contamination will only get worse and worse, and all Buddhist fires need to be extinguished to avoid worse situations. Some people call them fire fighters.

The two sides continued to argue, but more and more monks became possessed by demons.

After a mysterious accident occurred, a possessed monk took away the Buddhist fire and began to spread it throughout the Buddhist world.

These possessed people represent the third sect - the Fire Sect. Most of them have lost their minds, or are losing their minds, but because of the spread of Buddhist fire and the sharp increase in demon contamination, it has brought a great chaos to the entire Buddhist world.

The city where Chu Qiguang is now is called the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas.

This was once the headquarters of the Fire Extinguishing Sect, where all Buddhas gathered to discuss how to extinguish the Buddha fire in the entire Buddhist world.

In order to find the scattered flames, they used the ashes of the Buddha's fire to create an existence called the Ember Girl.

The Ember Girl is the eyes of the Fire Extinguisher Faction, looking for flames for them and helping them extinguish the flames.

Seeing this, Chu Qiguang recalled the scenes in the underground space and thought to himself: 'This should be the workshop where Jin Nu was made. The Buddha's fire was extinguished here, and then the remnants of the fire were stacked, carved... and... There are some mysterious steps. ’

‘The Ember Girl was born. ’

'No wonder her face looks so delicate that it doesn't look like a real person. It's artificial. ’

‘But what about the corpses of Jin girls outside? ’

At this moment, Chu Qiguang looked at Jin Nu.

I saw that the blindfold on the other person's face had fallen to the ground at some point.

Jinnu covered her eyes with her hands, a look of pain on her face.

Chu Qiguang asked: "Are you okay?"

Jin Nu shook her head: "I... found my eyes."

"It's just that... without eyes, I haven't seen the fire in the distance for too long... for too long."

"I just need to rest... for a while."

Chu Qiguang nodded and continued to look at the book in his hand.

The Buddhas and monks extinguished the Buddha's fire one after another.

The Buddhist world, which was originally full of light and splendor, was gradually shrouded in darkness.

With the Buddhist fire becoming less and less, ordinary flames are simply not enough to light up the entire Buddhist world.

As a result, the entire Buddhist world began to become dim and dilapidated.

Faced with this situation, some monks began to regret their actions in putting out the fire.

Some people believe that... instead of bringing the entire Buddhist world into boundless darkness, it is better to allow some people to be corrupted by demons and fall into the devil's path.

Some people even think that people who are corrupted by demon dye are too weak.

Perhaps after continuously eradicating these weak ones through demon dyeing, those who remain will not be afraid of demon dyeing, and the entire group will become stronger and stronger, and will eventually be immune to demon dyeing.

Some people began to evacuate the Buddhist world, which was shrouded in more and more darkness, and returned to the Central Plains. They were called the evacuationists.

And it is said that some Buddhas have proposed the idea of ​​leaving this world in order to escape the increasingly serious evil contamination. Some people call them the escape group.

It was under such circumstances that the first demonized Buddha appeared.

At this moment, Chu Qiguang looked at the contents of the last few pages of the book.

…

"The Buddha of Light and Power has become a demon."

"That's ridiculous...can a Buddha also become a demon?"

"I heard that the Buddhas... have planned to leave our world and go to heaven."

"In order to avoid the demon dye, they abandoned us."

"If even Buddha can't resist the erosion of demon dye."

"What can we do? How can mortals like us resist the devil?"

…

"Is Jin Nu's head made of stone?"

"What a stupid woman who doesn't know the bounds of heaven and earth."

"At this point, I still want to put out the fire."

"They don't know the terror of those demons and Buddhas at all."

"That is a monster that should not exist in this world."

"A horror beyond the common sense of this world."

"Hidden deep in this Buddhist world."

…

"The Buddhas have disappeared."

"No one is willing to put out fires now."

"It's time for me to go."

"Only these Jin girls are still unwilling to stop."

"Their destiny is to put out fires."

"But it's no longer needed."

"How pathetic."

"Firefighting is destined to be a road with no future."

…

"These poor women."

"Another one went crazy."

"A monster created from the ashes of Buddha's fire."

"Maybe it's destined to be a tragedy."

…

"They... are crazy..."

"The Embers are attacking everyone."

"I'm going to die too..."

"It's really ridiculous..."

"Whether it's them or me, it's destined to be a tragedy."

…

The end of the page was stained with blood.

The words under the bloodstains could no longer be seen clearly, but Chu Qiguang thought that the outcome for the person who wrote the diary might not be good.

After closing the diary, Chu Qiguang turned around, only to find Jin Nu standing behind him, looking directly at him with her eyes.

This was the first time Chu Qiguang saw Jin Nu's eyes.

It was a pair of eyes that were all red and crystal clear, like rubies.

Chu Qiguang even saw a subtle fire flashing in these eyes.

Looking at the other party's appearance, Chu Qiguang asked curiously: "How is it? Can you find the Buddha's fire?"

Jin Nu nodded and said slowly: "Master, thank you for taking me to search for my eyes."

"But for Jin Nu, having eyes may not be a good thing."

I saw Jin Nu in front of me adjusting her clothes.

Her head was covered with a hat behind her clothes, shrouding herself in black shadow.

It looked a bit like the black figures that attacked Chu Qiguang in the square before.

Jin Nu said calmly: "Master, do you really expect a Buddhist world without Buddha fire?"

"But in that distant firelight, on the way to find fire, I only saw countless despair."

"I saw Jin Nu again and again..."

"Master... extinguishing the fire, is this really what you want?"

"You agreed to help me find the Buddha's Fire." Chu Qiguang drew out his Heavenly Slashing Sword, looked at Jin Nu in front of him and said, "You don't want to default on your debt, do you?"

Jin Nu shook her head: "Then please let me serve you and look for the Buddha's fire in this world."

"But if you regret it, please kill me."

"Otherwise, I will only embark on the path destined to despair."

"But if you insist, then please use me as you wish until I witness the extinction of the Buddha's fire."
