Chapter 494 The Master of Bu Shi Niu

“Three Heavenly Books, one to communicate with the netherworld, one to peer into the heavens, and one to summon divine soldiers to descend with a blade?” Looking at the Great Senior Brother’s extremely serious expression, Hu Ma hesitated, “What Heavenly Books are in that Ghost Cave?”

All there was inside was a Da Hong Pao (crimson-robed ghost) clinging to life, who died after saying a few words. It seemed more like a temporary refuge.

And this Da Hong Pao only told me these secrets before he died, without a word about inheriting skills. I still have countless doubts in my heart, so how would I know what the Heavenly Books they’re hoping for even are? However, though he was slightly uneasy, he didn't immediately deny it.

Instead, he pondered silently, sorting things out and secretly trying to guess what they were thinking from their perspective.

Do they know that the Great Virtuous Teacher, or rather Lao Jun Mei, is actually a reincarnator? Unlikely! Perhaps they understand that this Great Virtuous Teacher was born with knowledge and strange ideas, realizing that he is different from ordinary people, but at most, they would think, like everyone else in this world, that this Great Virtuous Teacher is an evil ghost crawling out of hell, or, to put it nicely, a god reincarnated and descended to earth.

But they probably can't understand the concept of reincarnation.

And from their point of view, he realized what he looked like in their eyes. He was just a small shopkeeper from the Blood Food Gang who came to the territory of the One Coin Sect in search of the Dharma, but accidentally passed the Three Trials and Twelve Tribulations and obtained the inheritance of the former leader, instantly becoming mysterious.

Moreover, in their eyes, this inheritance is probably more than just the Dawei Tiangong General Seal, and should include other magical things, such as the omnipotent "Three Heavenly Books" in their eyes.

Having figured out what he wanted to say in his heart, he only nodded slightly, not concealing his hesitation, and said, "I did learn something."

"But I'm not sure if this is the Heavenly Book you're talking about..." Saying this, he paused slightly before looking into his eyes again and said, "Do you need me to say it and study it together?"

Hearing his words, the Miao Shan Fairy standing beside him serving tea immediately breathed a long sigh of relief: "I told you, the leader must have gained a lot of skills after entering the Ghost Cave."

"After all, he was just a small shopkeeper, who shivered when he saw me, kowtowing when I told him to, and wanting to take me as his teacher… But he didn't listen to me too much."

"But after he passed the Three Trials and Twelve Tribulations, it was obvious that his temperament was different, and it was my turn to be afraid of him."

"Not only was I afraid, but he also taught me how to rebel… Where did this skill and vision come from?" How could he subdue the demon corpse and ride the stone horse to chop off the Eight Decay Gods outside the town? No doubt, he learned it from the Three Heavenly Books… And in her imagination, the Great Senior Brother looked at Hu Ma’s composed gaze and shook his head slightly, sighing softly: "The Three Heavenly Books encompass everything, and are not something that ordinary people can understand. If I could learn them, the young master would have taught me long ago."

"He said that those who know don't need to be taught, and those who don't know can't be taught even if you teach them."

"Presumably, that's why he put the Three Heavenly Books in the Ghost Cave, waiting for the person destined to receive them."

"Now that the leader has the inheritance, it is already the blessing of Bu Shi Niu (Those Who Don't Eat Cattle). How dare I be so greedy and disrespectful?"

"Very well then."

Hu Ma nodded slightly, hearing him say so sincerely.

He had to admit that he always felt a hidden pressure from this Great Senior Brother, who looked like an old farmer from the countryside. The Great Virtuous Teacher had been gone for a long time, but Bu Shi Niu had never stopped causing trouble.

These妖ren (demon people) were able to survive the attacks of the Ten Clans for twenty years, and still think about rebellion. Their skills must not be underestimated, and this Great Senior Brother is even more unfathomable.

If a reincarnator wants to understand what happened before, they cannot avoid Bu Shi Niu.

He was lucky enough to become the leader of Bu Shi Niu, and gained many conveniences, but he also had to be careful. The leader of this group of demon people is not easy to be. Just like the Red Lantern Granny and this Miao Shan Fairy, who knows if they are someone else’s shield? In times of chaos, those who run to the front are either born with the fate of an emperor or a scapegoat. He needs to contact Bu Shi Niu himself, not only because it is related to the secret of the reincarnator, but also because many other things can be borrowed from them. Of course, things cannot only be thought of in a good way, and the necessary precautions must be taken.

Thinking this, he frankly said to the Great Senior Brother: "After this Lantern Blessing Assembly, I admire Bu Shi Niu’s philosophy of deceiving gods and ghosts, but not deceiving the people, and I admire your courage to bless the people and fight against the Shou Sui Great Hall Official."

"But I also know that you are now doing great things…" "Not to mention that I myself have a pile of messes to deal with, even if I wanted to help, with my skills of only having just pushed open the second gate of the mansion..." "..."

"I understand everything the leader said."

When Hu Ma said these words, he wasn't confident enough, but the Great Senior Brother seemed to understand, and took over his voice, gently nodding his head. He was too old, his appearance was the kind that had been mixed in the fields for a lifetime, with dark and deep wrinkles from the sun, making it difficult to see his true thoughts, but his expression seemed very sincere. He stood up gently, stroked his chest, and said in a low voice: "In fact, the world thinks that Bu Shi Niu is a religion, and we have indeed been waiting for the leader to appear."

"But in reality, Bu Shi Niu is more like a dao tradition, or a school of thought."

"Over the past twenty years, my fellow disciples have been scattered all over the world, each obeying the legacy of our master, watching this world, watching these people, not only thinking about letting the barbarian royal family step down from the throne, but also continuing to learn."

"The master said we were too high up, and wanted us to lower our posture, go into the folk to learn the things he didn't have time to teach us. If we weren't low enough, we should kneel down, and if we couldn't kneel down, we should break our legs…" "…He said that as long as we were low enough, we could see some problems."

"Now, we may have indeed seen some problems, seeing the superficiality of this world, seeing that wild ghosts have no door and living people have no way. We are also following the master's instructions, leaving behind causes and effects in various places, and one day, we can accomplish great things… We don't understand, the more we see, the more things we don't understand."

"The more we prepare, the more we discover the difficulty of accomplishing great things, the more we discover the horror of the Ten Clans and the aristocratic families, and even feel that doing that great thing is a joke…" Speaking of which, one could even hear some sadness in his words, but it only showed slightly before being restrained again. Instead, he looked at Hu Ma very seriously and said softly: "What we need is actually guidance." "Compared to the leader, I would also like to call you, Virtuous Teacher…" Hearing his words, Hu Ma also remained silent, and after a long time, he slowly breathed out a sigh of relief.

Looking at the Great Senior Brother with a solemn expression, he said softly: "My skills are limited, so I can’t really give guidance, but these Three Heavenly Books…" "I also hope I can understand them as soon as possible."

The two looked into each other's eyes, and saw something sincere in each other's eyes. In silence, it was as if a huge stone had fallen to the ground.

The Miao Shan Fairy beside him was a little anxious: "The leader is the leader, Bu Shi Niu has been waiting for twenty years, why are these two still talking in such a roundabout way?"

"The more this kind of attitude, the more reassuring it is."

Hu Ma finally reached this point, and began to ask some questions with peace of mind.

And there were indeed many things he wanted to know, so he temporarily stayed in this main altar mansion.

He planned to stay here for a few days, asking the Great Senior Brother of Bu Shi Niu one by one about the origin of Bu Shi Niu, the preparations over the past twenty years, about the Great Virtuous Teacher, the things he had experienced before, the people he had contacted, and even the reason why he founded Bu Shi Niu.

In addition, the Great Senior Brother also told Hu Ma about the plans of the Eight Sect Disciples of Bu Shi Niu in various places in the Yi Dynasty Seventy-Two Dao, various preparations, and even some secret codes between the disciples.

However, Hu Ma asked more about the previous leader, and even asked for advice on some of the secret methods. As for the matters of rebellion, the list involving life and property, etc., he still tried to ask as little as possible.

To put it bluntly, he and this Bu Shi Niu were like an arranged marriage. It would be better for everyone to have a sense of propriety at the beginning, and then talk about it after they got acquainted slowly.

After a day of exchanges, when Hu Ma walked out of this main altar mansion, he had a general idea in his heart: "Bu Shi Niu does believe in me as the leader, and tells me everything."

"But if you say they completely believe in me, that's not necessarily true. This Great Senior Brother has considerable skills. The more skilled a person is, the less they believe in those mysterious things. So, he respects me is true, but if you want to convince me, that's still far from enough."

"Rather than saying that he believes in me, and is willing to respect me as a teacher, it's better to say that he believes that I really received the Three Heavenly Books…" "But where am I going to get this thing?"

"Could it be that I should write out a copy of Sun Tzu's Art of War for them, or the even more mysterious Dao De Jing?" "…But I can't remember it!"

"I only regret that Hou’er Jiu (Monkey Wine) is a science PhD. If I could meet a liberal arts PhD again, things would be easy…"

After thinking about such things, he took out the painting of the Old Man Visiting the Mountain that he had taken from Miao Shan Fairy's place earlier. After experiencing such a major event, and understanding Bu Shi Niu, he had a slight expectation for the second entry into the Ghost Cave.

"Da Hong Pao told me to awaken the stone horse and get the things stored in the stone horse's belly. I got it." "The strange big seal tied to the old elm tree is also in my hands."

"So, is it different now that I enter this Ghost Cave again?"

With this thought in mind, he looked at the painting again, his divine soul left his body, and slowly entered this painting.

Now that he had cultivated the Dawei Tiangong General Seal, his divine soul was even more condensed, so he couldn't even see the blocking fierce tiger and the man-eating dragon. He directly came to the front of the Three Trials and Twelve Steps, took the "elevator", and directly entered the cave.

He had expectations in his heart, and this time, he indeed immediately felt that this natal spirit temple was different from before as soon as he entered.
