Chapter 372 Now they're all stuck in their hands.
Whether it is or not, let's wait and see.
Old Green Ox stopped hiding and led Zhong Lingxin back: "Let's go, let's go. Whether we're destined to be together or not, we'll know once we see it."
To be honest, Little Fairy
I, Old Niu, used to have a fiery temper, but after obtaining the scriptures from the Buddha's Nine Heavens, my temper changed, and I no longer stoop to the level of you little immortals who have come in.
Unless they want to kill me, I usually just let them go.
That Brahma sound is a wonderful treasure. I can store so many of my magical treasures into my inner space, but I can't store that Brahma sound.
Fortunately, that Brahma was good at hiding things.
I said I wanted to come out and find some peace and quiet, and it changed on its own, to the point that I couldn't even recognize it.
"When I get back, I'll have to call it out again."
Zhong Lingxin smiled, and the more she spoke, the more it sounded like a Buddhist ruyi (a type of scepter).
The man and the ox hurried back.
At this moment, in the territory of the Old Green Ox, a group of immortals were rummaging through chests and cabinets.
Old Green Ox has left to enjoy his leisure, taking all the good stuff from his territory, leaving only some young, immature plants for anyone else to take.
The hopeful immortals only obtained a few young immortal herbs and the fish and shrimp in the stream flowing beneath their feet.
The elixirs they bought in Guangyuan City, which had lost much of their efficacy and were of low quality, were all wasted.
The old ox ran away and refused to trade with them anymore.
This caused them to suffer huge losses.
The immortals originally intended to make a fortune off the old green ox.
Now they're all stuck with nothing.
How could they possibly tolerate this!
So a group of immortals wreaked havoc in the old green ox's territory.
The stream was blocked, turned, and the water flowed back into the old green ox's cave.
They pulled up and trampled all the medicinal herbs that covered the mountain.
The immortal mine, protected by the old green ox's array, was bombarded with one explosive talisman after another, in the hope of breaking through the protective array and digging away all the immortal stones beneath the old green ox's cave.
When the old ox returned, it saw this scene and was so angry that it breathed out two puffs of white smoke from its nostrils.
The white smoke shot straight towards the immortals who were wreaking havoc, blowing them directly into the sky.
A celestial being saw the old green ox return and joyfully shouted, "The old green ox is back! The old green ox is back!"
All the immortals turned their anger into joy.
It's good that Old Green Ox is back.
They can exchange their cheap goods for incredibly valuable medicinal herbs and minerals.
The immortals' eyes darted around. They had wasted so much time in the old green ox's territory, they should ask the old green ox for some compensation.
Zhong Lingxin, who returned with the old green ox, was so angry at the shamelessness of these immortals that she laughed.
They skimmed off every last drop of feathers from Old Green Ox's territory, yet complained that Old Green Ox had made them wait too long.
It's not like Old Green Ox made them wait.
The old ox was also angered by the shamelessness of these immortals.
The immortals who came before, though they tried to take advantage of it by being unreasonable, did not damage its territory or destroy its immortal herb seedlings.
It's true... the more it tolerates, the more outrageous the immortals become.
Zhong Lingxin is right. It's acceptable not to take advantage of others, but it's also not appropriate to be too tolerant of those who try to profit from others.
Zhong Lingxin scolded it for having a Buddha in its heart but no sword in its hand, saying it deserved to be forced to wander outside instead of enjoying its good territory.
Old Green Ox cursed himself a thousand times in his heart for being a worthless wretch, deserving to be bullied by the little fairy.
It decided to correct its mistakes from this moment on.
From now on, no one will be able to take advantage of it even for a single immortal stone.
These immortals who destroyed its territory should be stripped bare and their wealth used to compensate for the loss of its territory.
Zhong Lingxin agreed with Lao Qingniu's decision and flew up to watch the show.
Soon, the old green ox gathered the immortal essence of a group of little immortals and assigned them to work in various parts of the territory.
Plant trees where trees should be planted, and plant grass where grass should be planted.
Zhong Lingxin drew a map and carved out the stream in front of the old green ox's door into nine bends and eighteen turns, making it easier to water the immortal fruits and herbs in various places.
The old ox, holding the map, exclaimed, "Excellent!"
He turned around and instructed the immortals to carry out the construction according to the plan.
For the next hundred years, they should just work hard for it and not think about going anywhere else.
Zhong Lingxin left the old green ox's cave and searched everywhere for the Buddhist treasure with the sound of chanting.
Based on the tacit understanding he had developed with Fan Yin over tens of thousands of years, the old green ox clearly told Zhong Lingxin that Fan Yin had not left and was right under her nose.
This piqued Zhong Lingxin's interest immensely.
She glanced closely, scrutinizing every scene before her, and even used her divine sense to examine it.
Everything around was so quiet and peaceful. The mountains were mountains and the rocks were rocks. The saplings swayed gently in the breeze, and the birds sang softly in the breeze.
In the stream, the little fish are swimming happily.
In a lotus pond built with water diverted from the stream, the lotus leaves and lotus flowers that had been cut down by the little fairy were all lying flat in the pond.
After searching for an hour, Zhong Lingxin shook her head and clearly told the old ox that she could not find it.
The old ox also told Zhong Lingxin that it couldn't find it either.
But the Brahma sound knew to relay the message.
It knew that Zhong Lingxin was looking for it and wanted to form a contract with it.
It required Zhong Lingxin to stay in the old green ox's cave for a month.
Over the past month, it found Zhong Lingxin agreeable and came out to form a contract.
If it doesn't like Zhong Lingxin, then let's keep our distance.
They were not meant to be.
Zhong Lingxin smiled.
A simple question, "Whether we're destined to be together or not," resolves everything.
It truly is a treasure of Buddhism; everything depends on fate.
She hummed a Hokkien song called "Go with the Flow" as she cleaned up the fallen lotus leaves and flowers in the pond, straightening them as needed.
"Whether we are destined to be together or not, let it all be as fate dictates, and let everything take its natural course. Love without truth or reality is fleeting; if the dream ends, we can meet again at any time. Whether we are destined to be together or not, let it all be as fate dictates, and let everything take its natural course. There is so much to develop in life, why linger on the path of love? If it is meant to be, cherish this good relationship. Conversely, if it is not meant to be, don't be foolish enough to create a bad relationship. Whether we are destined to be together or not, let it all be as fate dictates..."
Zhong Lingxin has a clear and melodious voice.
The old ox exclaimed, "That sounds wonderful!"
Zhong Lingxin smiled: "Fan Yin said she would test me for a month, so I thought of 'Go with the flow.' I heard this song many years ago. Go with the flow. If we are destined to meet, cherish it; if we are not, don't resent it. Look, there's another group of immortals over there. It looks like they are cursing the immortals who are working for being stupid and breaking their rules, which will prevent them from earning your immortal herbs and mines."
Old Green Ox felt depressed again.
What wrong path has he taken all these years, letting these little devils run wild in front of him!
Zhong Lingxin agreed with the old green ox: "Yes, you really went astray in the past few years. Go on, even Bodhisattvas have gentle eyes, and Vajras have angry eyes. It's time to show your stern side. Otherwise, you'll be harmed by these little immortals sooner or later."
The old green ox nodded, its eyes flashing with anger, and strode towards the immortals who were spouting nonsense.
