Chapter 191

At least one point Chi Juluo didn't lie about: Telepathy is not just used for eavesdropping on other people's inner voices.

She felt that the original intention of Fomen creating the "Telepathy" divine power might really be to facilitate communication between people.

When the old monk faced Li Xianzhi in his heart, she felt as if she were looking at a transparent crystal glass man, and the various lights flashing on the glass man represented all kinds of emotions he had at this moment.

Clear at a glance, clear and thorough.

In front of Li Xianzhi, she was also a crystal glass man flashing with gratitude, eagerness, slight hesitation, sincerity, frankness, and other emotions.

This "glass man" Xiao Yu was really not entirely fictional.

The telepathy-breaking method derived by the Purple Mansion was still based on her "Kun Soul" born during the Kunpeng Change, sinking her original consciousness to the bottom of the dark and cold "Heart Sea," and then projecting the emotions and thoughts she intended to express as "ripples" from the bottom of the heart sea to the outside world.

Simply put, projecting the emotions and thoughts in the heart to the outside world is almost the reverse operation of the "Heart Sea Art."

The Heart Sea Art is a mental secret technique that uses the characteristics of the Kun Soul to turn the heart sea into the "Northern Underworld Deep Sea": Kun is the absolute master of the Northern Underworld. In the cold and dark deep sea, no water wave can escape the perception of Kun. If the naked eye cannot see, project the scene outside to the bottom of the Northern Underworld in the heart. As long as there are fluctuating or moving animals in the scene, they will inevitably cause ripples in the water, and the ripples are perceived by the "Kun," with the effect being the same as seeing it with one's own eyes.

The so-called "reverse operation" is to project the ripples in the Northern Underworld into the outside world, forming the "fluctuations" Xiao Yu wants—thought fluctuations, which are also the "Xiao Yu original heart thoughts" captured by telepathy.

In fact, Xiao Yu's "original heart" has turned into a Kun fish, hidden in the depths of the Northern Underworld abyss.

Xiao Yu's "original heart" can decide the content of the thoughts projected outside the "Northern Underworld Deep Sea," can lie, can be sincerely reserved, or can be completely frank.

At this moment, the "Chen Yufeng Hongfu Hongfu Xianzi original heart" captured by Chi Juluo is a slightly disguised Xiao Yu who retains most of her sincerity.

It is not completely true, but not completely false either.

After all, the Three-Chapter Agreement proposed by the Li family still has a certain degree of sincerity.

If it were purely an unequal treaty, there would be no need for Chi Juluo to verify it with telepathy; just thinking about it with a normal brain would inevitably lead to the conclusion that Xiao Yu is full of unwillingness and resentment.

"Two benefactors, how is it?" Chi Juluo let the two "transparent glass men" look at each other and observe for a while before saying: "If there is no objection, the two benefactors can swear before the Burning Lamp Buddha, the Lord of the Western Heaven.

Your oaths will be known to the Buddha, but whoever violates the oath, the Buddha's punishment will surely be fulfilled."

Having reached this point, what objection could the two have?

"I have no objection, but I have a small question." Xiao Yu looked at Li Xianzhi opposite and said, "For a big shot like the Prince to want to sever ties with me, it shows how dangerous my own situation is.

If an accident happens, I am kidnapped, or hunted down, and forced to leave Tianmen Town within ten years, how is it counted?"

After speaking, she smiled bitterly, "Your Highness should be able to understand that I, more than you and the Prince, hope that I can persist until ten years later.

If I don't want to break the agreement but am forced to break it, and I die miserably, and my soul is punished by the Buddha into the Avici Hell, wouldn't it be too unjust?"

Li Xianzhi nodded; her concerns at this moment were indeed very likely to become reality.

Fully fulfilling the ten-year agreement meant she survived.

She certainly hoped she would survive, but she would likely

"Little Fengxian, you don't have to worry; your agreement with me mainly lies in the 'original heart.' If the original heart doesn't change, it is not considered a breach of oath. If you are forced to leave, or leave because you encounter immortal fate, it is not considered breaking the oath." He said.

The old monk also nodded slightly and smiled, "This is also the reason why the Heir Apparent invited this poor monk to perform 'Telepathy,' it lies in the heart, not the form."

Xiao Yu nodded and said loudly, "Today on the Qingshuihe, before the Burning Lamp Buddha, Chen Yufeng Hongfu Hongfu Xianzi swears by pointing at the water—the Qingshuihe is here, I will never break my word!

Master Chi Juluo witness it, Burning Lamp Buddha witness it, Heaven and Earth witness it.

The river water has spirit, and it must also witness it!"

Li Xianzhi also learned from her, and under the statue of the Burning Lamp Buddha, made an oath pointing at the Qingshuihe.

Afterwards, Master Chi Juluo reviewed the detailed content of the "Three-Chapter Agreement" again and sternly announced that if either of them dared to break the oath, the Burning Lamp Buddha would surely sense it, and the oath-breaker would be cast into the Avici Hell and never be reborn.

To be honest, Xiao Yu really had no opinion on the basic content of the "Three-Chapter Agreement," only being dissatisfied with the "ten-year period."

She felt ten years was a bit long, although she would only be 21 years old after ten years.

Considering that besides ten thousand taels of gold, the Li family also promised to gift her an opportunity to obtain immortal fate after ten years

One cannot count on the promises of others after ten years; for now, she still has to rely on herself.

Worshipping foster fathers cannot stop, and the "three-step walk, cast sword bones" must be completed as soon as possible!

The Li family is a BOSS, but not the "Sword of Damocles" hanging over her head; they have threats but are not urgent, now just changing from "not urgent" to "increasingly not urgent," having no impact on her current safety.

She currently has two most urgent threats: The first is naturally the subsequent arrangements of the Heavenly Emperor.

There will certainly be heavenly talisman envoys, duty-performing officials, and the like descending, and checking her words and deeds.

Will they make a mountain out of a molehill because of a small mistake?

Now, she can "see" the duty-performing ghosts and gods and divine talisman envoys sent by the City God of Guan.

But does the Heavenly Court have stronger and more hidden monitoring gods?

Or, if the talisman envoy's ability is too strong and the range he can observe in an instant is too large, and he stands outside the range of the Heart Sea Art, he can also observe her every move; how should she respond?

For example, the assassination in the Basha Hutong.

The heavenly talisman envoy jumped out actively.

Actually, he had been there all along, but she didn't notice it.

Besides the talisman envoy, the Heavenly Court has at least the Four Duty-Performing Officials, the Day-Wandering God, the Night-Wandering God, and various Star Lords who are in charge of rewarding good and punishing evil.

If they keep staring at her, waiting for her to make a mistake, and then jump out to strike her head with a golden melon.

No wonder the Li family wants to sever ties with her.

This kind of life, let alone experiencing it personally, just imagining it in her mind, puts pressure on her like a mountain.

The second biggest threat is the "Eight Immortals of the West."

She changed from "Li family's person" to "Dongfang Shuo's person," and the people of Tianmen Town will change their attitudes and thoughts, but in the eyes of the "Eight Immortals of the West," she changed from a "traitor" to a "Japanese devil," becoming even more hateful and increasingly deserving of death.

And the "Big Shot" behind the "Eight Immortals of the West," rebelling against Great Qin at this time, probably isn't afraid of "Heaven's will being unfathomable," and might even think that dealing with her can please the Heavenly Emperor.

This is not Xiao Yu scaring herself; being able to rebel against Great Qin with organization and premeditation, they probably knew about "Heaven's will"—that Great Han would replace Great Qin—in advance.

Think about the Western Zhou conquering Shang in the Great Tribulation of the Enthronement of Gods.

Decades in advance, signs appeared, and they started burying secret seeds.

On the painted pleasure boat on the Qingshuihe.

"Hongfu Hongfu Xianzi Feather, this poor monk feels that you and Buddha have a fate." Chi Juluo said with a smile.

Successfully completing the Three-Chapter Agreement, Li Xianzhi felt relieved and also a bit lost.

He chatted with them with a smile for a few words, then went downstairs to deal with the affairs of Lei Zhen and his son.

Xiao Yu didn't want to huddle with Chi Juluo to talk about private matters.

Just now they were talking about private matters in the tea room on the second floor, and Lei Zhen and his son took the initiative to avoid suspicion and didn't follow up.

Now Lei Zhen and his son were discussing the internal affairs of the Tianmen Association with Li Xianzhi downstairs, and they should also take the initiative to avoid it for a while.

"To tell the truth, Master, ever since I saw the projection of the Burning Lamp Buddha's Dharma image, I have always had a feeling of admiration and closeness in my heart." Xiao Yu said.

Chi Juluo smiled even more gently, his voice even softer, and said: "This is exactly the manifestation of the Hongfu Hongfu Xianzi's wisdom. Fane Temple often holds lectures on scriptures, and this poor monk sometimes transmits the Dharma heart-to-heart.

The Hongfu Hongfu Xianzi can often come to listen and watch; perhaps you can gain something."

"Master, you don't have to call me 'Hongfu Hongfu Xianzi,' just call me by my name.

I am very grateful for the Master's love, but Master also understands Xiao Yu's current situation."

Xiao Yu looked into the old monk's eyes, not hiding the longing in her heart, "I am willing to read Buddhist scriptures, but I want to improve my strength more, to keep my little life, Master, can you teach me a few great Buddhist divine powers?"

——Opening your mouth to ask for my Buddhist great divine powers, and a few at that, how do you have the face to make this request?

The old monk's withered cheeks twitched slightly, he put his hands together, lowered his head and said: "Amitabha, divine powers and martial arts are just small paths; the great wisdom of enlightenment is the Great Dao of our Buddha Sect."

"I understand that I am a bit eager for quick success, but the current situation." Xiao Yu's heart moved, and she asked with a look of expectation: "Master, can I move directly to Fane Temple?

Or simply become a little nun who practices with hair, and use the power of the Buddha Sect to protect my own safety?"

The Master was a bit unable to hold on.

——The Li family royal family wants to spend a fortune to sever ties with you, the Buddha and Fomen are not afraid of karma, but the old monk and Fane Temple can't bear it!

He was indeed willing to ferry Chen Yufeng Hongfu Hongfu Xianzi across.

But the ferry he had in mind was sending some tangerine peel soup, fruit medicine, and other peaceful tasks, which cost nothing but won people's hearts. Once she showed her usefulness, he would recommend her to the West.

He himself had limited ability and certainly couldn't ferry her directly.

After all, he and Fane Temple still wanted to curry favor with the Prince of Qinghe in order to spread Fomen in Western Shu!

"Hey, no, no, Fane Temple has no nuns, and no single woman has ever stayed in the temple." The old monk waved his hands repeatedly.

"Then the great Buddhist divine powers—"

"Oh, the zither sound downstairs has started, the Heir Apparent must have finished discussing with Association Leader Lei, let's go down."

Before Xiao Yu finished speaking, the old monk stood up, walked to the stairs in a few steps, and went downstairs.

"Old bastard, so stingy, not willing to spend a penny, yet still wants to pull me into the sect.

Unfortunately, you are not willing to teach me divine powers, but I can break your great divine powers one by one!"

"However, to break Buddhist divine powers, I must first study Buddhist techniques, otherwise the Purple Mansion's derivation speed is too slow"

Xiao Yu calculated in her heart, with a calm smile on her face, stood up to tidy her dress, and also left the tea room on the second floor.

The Li family's determination was great, and their execution was also very strong.

In the afternoon, after "swearing by pointing at the water" on the Qingshuihe, in the evening, there were government office runners, ordered by Zhu Yitao, who came to the Red Sleeve Workshop to find Xiao Yu and told her that the crime of setting up a stall was completely revoked.

"The Chief Clerk said that Miss Yu is different from before; if a commoner of this country commits a crime, even if innocent, three degrees are added; if a person of the Central Plains accidentally touches the law, even if guilty, three degrees are reduced.

In the Basha Hutong case, Miss Yu is innocent, so the crime of setting up a stall is revoked immediately."

Besides a "revocation document" personally signed by the Chief Clerk, there was also a bag of silver, totaling two hundred taels.

The runner explained: "The fine paid by Miss Yu that day is now returned double."

Xiao Yu held the cloth bag, her expression strange as she said: "Are you planning to post a notice at the city gate and the government office to announce this?"

Hearing this, the runner showed a look of surprise and said: "Does Miss Yu also understand divination? Before I came over, brothers from the guard room had already gone to the four city gates to post notices. The Chief Clerk said he wanted to help you restore the reputation of a 'noble person of the Central Plains'."
