Chapter 77: Such a gathering of three flowers?
When the hazy, familiar feeling of "travel through time" dissipated, Li Yu saw the familiar demon star shield again.

But the situation this time is completely different from last time.

He was not safe or free at all at this moment.

Despite having a protective shield on his body, he was treated like a "piglet" and tied to a thick bamboo pole. He was being carried and watched as he walked forward.

"Yo hey~ Yo hey."

"Amitabha, a new outsider has arrived."

"Better than the previous one. It's a boy, and looks very strong."

"Boys are good, boys are good, they can become Buddhas."

……

When Li Yu heard these terrifying and malicious shouts, he also saw the source of the sound and the environment he was in.

This seems to be a dark, damp and dirty mountain village.

The people who were carrying him at this moment, with their ugly heads leaning forward to observe him, were all villagers.

They came out from the dilapidated thatched huts, including middle-aged villagers, village women, octogenarians, and young children... there was no shortage of them.

Everyone was ragged and skinny.

But what was quite strange was that their faces, which were almost unrecognizable due to weight loss, were all glowing with rosy light, as if their lives were extremely rich and all their wishes were fulfilled.

Apart from constantly shouting "Buddha" and "Bodhisattva", there are also some Buddhist traces all over their bodies.

For example, the tattered monk's robes, the scars on the head, the Buddhist beads in the hands, etc., are all disorganized. It seems that these people are fanatical Buddhists who have not been taught by proper monks.

"What kind of start is this?"

"Is this a cannibal village, and are they going to roast me?"

These two thoughts just emerged in Li Yu's mind.

The next moment, he saw a stone platform in front of him that looked like an altar, with some temple elements such as prayer flags.

Right on the stage, there were two things, one of which made Li Yu feel very familiar.

The body of a woman dressed as a Bodhisattva was so severely decomposed that even her face could not be seen clearly.

And a lotus seat beneath her.

Looking at it, it is very similar to the golden needle lotus seat that Li Yu saw when he visited Zhu Mei, the abbot of Zhulao Temple.

If he remembered correctly, this thing was used to make the so-called "Buddha in the flesh"?
"No...it can't be right?"

The bad omen in Li Yu's mind came true in the next breath.

Under the guidance of an old man wearing a tattered robe and a monk's hat, who looked like the village chief.

Several villagers began to take out the "female Bodhisattva" from the lotus seat, but soon found that it was difficult to pull it off completely.

If you pull it out, you'll either crush the rotten flesh or tear off the head and arms separately.

So the villagers simply started to smash it and pull it off.

Even Li Yu felt that these villagers were a little crazy after watching this scene, especially since they were still chanting repentance while doing this:
"Amitabha! Please don't be offended, Bodhisattva."

"You haven't provided Buddhist rhyme for a while, it's time to give way."

"Don't worry, we won't waste your Dharma body."

"The Bodhisattva is so kind... Hey, don't break your intestines, you fool."

"Hey, be careful. Let me see if the Bodhisattva's heart is golden."

"It is indeed. Very good, very good."

……

After scolding him, the old village chief turned to Li Yu and stared at him through the shield.

He smiled, revealing a mouthful of rotten, yellow, and smelly teeth, then bowed devoutly and said:
"Don't worry, wait until the Bodhisattva abdicates and the golden lotus throne will be yours."

"That is a Buddha treasure that came out of the Zhishan Old Buddha Temple. Whoever sits on it will be the Buddha. If we worship it again, we will be blessed. Even if we don't eat or drink, and don't sleep or rest, we can still enjoy great freedom and joy."

"You are so strong, you can be a Buddha. You won't die easily. This is a chance for you to be a Buddha once in your lifetime."

"Please hold on for a few more days. Our Jinguan Village depends on you."

"Children, go get the Buddhist robes."

How could Li Yu not understand these words when he heard them?

This village is indeed not a cannibal village, but it is much more terrifying than that.

The villagers bought a lotus seat from the so-called old Buddhist temple. This treasure should have some strange effect: as long as a living person is inserted into it, it can be worshipped as an alternative "Buddha", and then the flesh-and-blood Buddha will release some Buddhist charm.

Within the scope of the Buddhist rhythm, these villagers can enjoy freedom and joy without eating, drinking or sleeping.

They couldn't resist this kind of pleasure.

So they started kidnapping outsiders, one after another, and inserted them into the lotus seat.

During this process, the whole village went crazy.

I'm afraid that both "cognition" and what we see in front of us have been distorted into other forms.

For example, although they clearly tied up Li Yu and intended to harm him, they thought they were helping him become a Buddha.

It is clearly a rotten and smelly heart, but it appears to be golden.

Maybe afterwards, these lunatics will even want to taste the flesh and blood of the Bodhisattva.

Although these men, women, young and old still have human appearance, they are no longer human inside.

"The legacy of fallen Buddhism has spread to this strange world, right?"

"Respected Master Zhu Mei?"

When Li Yu was complaining in his heart, the familiar cold voice of the Demon Star Order finally sounded in his mind:

"The mission begins!"

"At the end of the Warring States Period, in the Xing Kingdom, in the Changyi Mountain area, a powerful cultivator suddenly descended and cast a spell to cover the area around Changyi Mountain, including Changyi City and a dozen villages, with a barrier that allowed entry but not exit."

"Afterwards, he claimed that he was originally from Changyi Mountain and had traveled far away to practice since he was young. Now that he has finally achieved success in his practice, he is determined to return to his hometown so that all his hometown people can live forever with him and enjoy eternal bliss."

"He claimed that he had followed three true gods, Haotian, Buddha, and Ancient Saint, and that he had successfully integrated the essence of the three ways to become a god with his amazing talent, thus reaching the extraordinary realm of 'Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head' in the legend."

"Therefore, he also has three titles: Supreme Mercy, Supreme Mercy Buddha, and Supreme Mercy Saint."

"Because of the great magical powers and power he displayed, the people of Changyi Mountain chose to believe in him and built three magnificent palaces on the top of the mountain for him to take into account his three paths. After that, tens of thousands of people in Changyi Mountain began to follow this powerful man to practice."

“Initially, the results were excellent.”

"But gradually, the number of people in Changyi Mountain decreased, and the remaining people began to mutate."

"It was then that they realized it was a scam."

"Tens of thousands of people in Changyi Mountain were all used as experimental subjects for his simultaneous practice of the three paths to godhood."

"Such behavior finally angered the true god. One day, one of the three gods sent down a miracle and killed him across the realm."

"Before his death, this person sealed the Three Flowers that he had cultivated in three palaces and temples."

……

When the background of this unexpectedly large task entered Li Yu's ears, he almost forgot about the tragic event of being impaled on the lotus throne.

Good guy!
I have seen people cheating their fellow villagers, but I have never seen anyone cheating tens of thousands of people.

What kind of experimenter?
Study all three religions, right?

Is this what the legendary Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head mean?

Li Yu wanted to complain about the powerful man from the Warring States Period who was separated from him by many years. Compared with him, the geniuses in Wanfu City who liked to hang people or turn patients into zombies seemed so weak.

In his mind, the voice of the Demon Star Order continued:

"This time, there are twelve Demon Star Lords deployed, including two Sequence 7 Lords."

"Spying on the Samsara Skynet in advance, there are ten Samsaras, including two Sequence 7 Samsaras."

"Main Quest 1: Seize any 'flower' as a sacrifice, and you will get 3,000 merit points. If you gather all three flowers, you will get 12,000 merit points."

"Main Mission 2: For each person you kill who is a reincarnator, you will gain different merit points based on the opponent's path sequence."

"Please explore the remaining side quests on your own."

"Anything gained from the expedition mission can be taken out of the strange domain by the commander."

"The two camps will not be displayed in this mission. All demon star commanders please be prepared and don't be deceived by the reincarnationists."

"All the Order Masters and Reincarnators will be deployed separately for this mission. Please do not disclose the relevant secrets, otherwise you will be severely punished."

……

"The demon star shield will disappear in thirty breaths. All demon star commanders please be prepared."

When these nagging and cold voices fell, a countdown immediately began to appear in front of Li Yu's eyes.

"Sure enough, there are still two main quests as usual."

"Killing people for sacrifice is so simple and crude."

"But the Demon Star Order has really invested a lot this time, and it's rare for them to have the upper hand."

"Twelve against ten, the real advantage is mine."

"Ok?"

"Your uncle's Demon Star Order...!"

Li Yu was complaining when he suddenly discovered something that made him extremely speechless.

This shitty demon star shield looks like it’s protecting him.

But in reality, it was just a restriction that made him unable to move, and he couldn't release the elixir fire or take out the elixir to consume.

But the villagers are not subject to too many restrictions.

You can move his body, or cover him with layers of tattered Buddha clothes, and of course you can move him to the platform and place him on the lotus seat that has been crammed with countless foreigners.

Looking at the mottled and dirty appearance of the throne, I'm afraid it has never been washed since it was obtained.

And at this moment, they are actually doing so.

I watched the thirty breaths pass, counting down bit by bit.

The only consolation was that all the villagers were so thin that five of them had to carry Li Yu together, and they had to take three steps and then rest twice.

Finally, when they lifted Li Yu up and were about to spread his legs apart and put him in a suitable position.

Countdown!
ended.

The demonic light in front of him shattered, and Li Yu regained his freedom in an instant.

Without the slightest hesitation, he broke the rope, forced himself to stand up, grabbed a skinny villager nearby, and stabbed him directly onto the lotus throne.

puff!

The villager was so thin that not even blood splattered and he sat on it easily.

When pricked by the filthy golden needle, the villager, whose face was always glowing, seemed to have had some "illusion" punctured, and suddenly woke up.

He looked at everything around him in disbelief, and a shrill wail came out of his mouth.

Seeing this scene, Li Yu's mouth curled up into a cruel smile.

He turned his eyes and looked directly at the other villagers.
