Chapter 93

"Amidst the Buddha, it turns out you are truly celestial beings from heaven!" The merchants were so startled that they hurriedly knelt on the ground, bowing repeatedly toward the direction where Xuan Kong and Mila Zen Master had disappeared.

Even the face of the governor of Ninghai County did not look good. He was quite familiar with the young master of the Zhang family, who was now Mila Zen Master.

But he never expected that this young man who had stood up out of nowhere was also a cultivator with magical powers. He secretly rejoiced in his heart that at the time he had only signaled the strong men from the Ruyi Gambling House to follow Xuan Kong, rather than forcibly stopping him.

The governor also closed his eyes and silently recited a few phrases: "May the Buddha protect us!"

He had some acquaintance with Mila Zen Master. Seeing the relationship between him and Xuan Kong was far from that of "old friends," he realized this was a matter between celestial beings. As a mere mortal, he could do nothing but help Mila Zen Master recite a few Buddhist chants.

However, with Mila Zen Master in Xuan Kong's hands, the governor's recitation of the Buddhist scriptures would be of no use.

Xuan Kong held Mila Zen Master with one hand and used his flying spell, floating in the air.

Although Mila Zen Master had never been to the underworld, he sensed from the changes in the spiritual energy in the air that he had left the mortal world. He couldn't help but cry out, "Daoist Xuan Kong, where are you taking me?"

The surroundings were filled with fierce winds and gloomy mists, which did not look like the bright celestial realms of the nine heavens.

Xuan Kong, facing the wind, laughed loudly, "I'm taking you to meet your ancestor!"

"Ancestor... ancestor?" Mila Zen Master was puzzled by Xuan Kong's words. He didn't know what Xuan Kong was up to by taking him there.

Since the day he and Xiaor Ge conspired to cheat, and was punished by Xuan Kong, Mila Zen Master had never dared to provoke Wang Qi again, mainly because he was afraid Xuan Kong would intervene.

But trouble came looking for him even though he didn't seek it out.

Mila Zen Master's cultivation was not high, but he had some discernment. He saw that Xuan Kong's cultivation was at least at the level of a celestial immortal. Why was he so persistent in纠缠着自己？他到底是为了什么事？

总之，密勒禅师根本不相信玄空是为了收自己为徒。修炼这种事情本来就是讲究机缘的。

他如今的一身修为，也可以说是全凭自己的努力修来的。而且从来也没有听说过还有人为了一个有缘的徒儿，各种倒贴、各种好处的大把许诺。

至少密勒禅师就从来也没有遇到过，能修炼博取长生本身已经是中了特等奖一样，哪里有这么廉价的师傅主动送上门来呢？

密勒禅师没有像自己想象中的那样大吵大闹，这让玄空很舒服，轻声赞道：“不错，还能知道时务！我正是要带你去你祖师爷所在的天地。”

密勒禅师试探地问道：“我没有祖师爷啊，只有个师傅是金山寺的法海方丈。”

玄空哈哈笑道：“你不会以为法海的一身修为是天生的吧？”

密勒禅师一想也是，哪有人那么生猛，能够一生下来就有人间罗汉的道行？他小心翼翼地问道：“我法海师傅的师傅，不会是地藏王菩萨吧？”

玄空一愣，回头看向密勒禅师：“你怎么知道的？”

密勒禅师用手一把拍在了自己的脸上，倒吸了一口凉气：“不会吧，我只是随口猜测的啊，难道我们现在正飞在黄泉路上？”

玄空不由得对密勒禅师的直觉感到佩服了：“这你都能猜到！”

密勒禅师忍不住全身颤抖了起来，问道：“玄空道长，玄空仙人，你究竟找我有什么事啊？”

玄空点了点头，道：“做我的徒儿！”

密勒禅师刚开始的时候还以为自己听错了，这天下间听说过逼人卖肉的逼人做贼的，哪里还听说过逼人做徒儿的？这种荒唐事，他才不相信玄空大动干戈就是为了劝自己做他徒弟！

他心里面也有点鬼，生怕是自己弟弟的白莲教得罪了高人，要从自己这里寻找把柄。

若是给别人知道了弟弟的白莲圣子，是魔界大圣无天佛祖所封的话。

那别说自己老张家的两兄弟了，就是全天下的白莲教教徒恐怕都没有好下场。密勒禅师想到这里，壮着胆子笑道：“玄空道长，你就不要开玩笑了吧，小僧胆子小吃不起惊吓......”

他盘算着自己好歹顶着个金山寺弟子的名衔，先不管法海方丈究竟知不知道有自己这么一个挂名的弟子，但总也算是有个靠山吧。

只希望这个玄空大仙人，看在金山寺法海方丈的面子上，不要把自己给整治的太惨就好了。

玄空才不是跟他开玩笑，他低声威胁道：“最后再问一遍，你究竟愿不愿意做我的徒儿？你要是再不开窍的话，我敢保证你一定会后悔的！”

密勒禅师现在倒是光棍一条，豁出去了：“小僧倒要看看，我是怎么后悔的！”

玄空笑道：“你以为我在跟你开玩笑么？也用不着我出手，我只把你带到阎罗殿去，你在阳间所犯下的那么多佛门戒律自然会有阴司处罚。”

密勒禅师也不是凡人，他也有几分见识，不相信道：“我听说人死以后，才归阴曹管理，我是大福大贵的命格哪里有那么早死？”

而且他现在也踏在了修炼的道路上，自然也寄希望自己以后道行大进，也能够修成长生的不死之术。

是以尽管密勒禅师也熟知地府中的戒律，但心中却并不是十分害怕。

他笑了起来道：“我佛如来曾经说过，放下屠刀立地成佛，我是佛门弟子就算是触犯了阴间的戒律也不归冥君管辖！”

玄空也哈哈笑了起来：“你现在还是这么想的么？那么好吧，我看我们现在是没有继续谈下去的必要了。”

在奈何桥上，已经有一队地府的阴兵在等待着了。密勒禅师看着这一队队残肢血污的鬼魂从自己的眼前被押过奈何桥，自然知道这是货真价实的地府中行走的阴神。

吓得腿软，落在奈何桥上再也不肯前进半步。

对面的阴兵中这时飞出一员鬼将，正是秦广王的心腹，带领玄空进入酆都鬼城的那一位。他看着裹足不前的密勒禅师，冲玄空行了一个军礼：“敢问玄空上仙，就是这个人吗？”

玄空点了点头，笑道：“他看来是不愿意再往前走了。”那鬼将肃穆道：“到了地府，还由得这些人自己选择？阎王叫人三更死，谁敢留人到五更？”

他挥手施了一个军令，立刻就有阴兵上前，用缚魂索勒在了密勒禅师的脖子上。轻轻一拉，就看见密勒禅师的双脚身不由己的自行运动起来，跟着阴兵往前越走越快。
