Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning Chapter 150 - 150 118 Monk Hongyun2

Chapter 150: Chapter 118 Monk Hongyun_2 Chapter 150: Chapter 118 Monk Hongyun_2 This Monk’s moves seed light, yet they made Ban Tiankuang scream incessantly—clearly, there was sothing Mystical about his technique.

But even as Ban Tiankuang scread without end, he didn’t submit, instead cursing even more fiercely.

The Monk stopped reciting the Buddhist Scripture and sighed, “Benefactor, the malicious aura within you is now almost tangible. With my limited cultivation, I’m afraid I cannot convert you, we must wait for my master’s intervention.”

“…Even if the Thief Monk from Hongyun himself appears, would I be afraid of you?”

Upon hearing this, the little monk tugged at Su Mo’s clothes and left the room, sighing,

“He’s in for it. My master specializes in the Suffering People Scripture, used to convert the unyielding. The fellow monk in that room couldn’t even learn one ten-thousandth of my master’s skill, and he managed to make Ban Tiankuang scream in pain. If my master took action, after a whole night, any ferocious mountain bandits would surely sincerely convert to Buddhism.”

Su Mo, wide-eyed and tongue-tied, said, “Is this how you make them convert?”

“Yes.”

The little monk nodded repeatedly, “Isn’t it simple? Master says, there are millions of kinds of evil people in this world, but no matter which kind they are, they can all be converted, persuaded to lay down their butcher knives and beco Buddhas on the spot. If they can’t be converted, it ans the beating was too light…”

“…Your master is right.”

Su Mo found himself at a loss for words.

He had originally thought this Monk’s thods were tricky, but never expected them to be so straightforward.

At that mont, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

As for the Suffering People Scripture… Su Mo had heard of the Sutra of Salvation, but this Suffering People Scripture was truly unheard of.

Thinking thus, the little monk led him to a ditation room. Without waiting to announce their arrival, the door opened.

The elder Monk sat cross-legged on the platform, smiling at Su Mo, “Master Su, please co in.”

Su Mo nodded slightly and stepped inside.

The decoration in the ditation room was simple, with a low table splitting the platform into two parts.

On the table were an incense burner, and a teapot with two cups.

Monk Hongyun gestured invitingly, “Master Su, please sit.”

“Thank you.”

Su Mo nodded and took a seat without any pretense.

Only then did Monk Hongyun speak, “It’s unexpected that Master Su would visit Hongyun Temple. If I had known earlier, I would have welcod you at the gate. I hope Master Su can forgive my presumptuous invitation.”

As he spoke, he poured Su Mo a cup of tea and gently pushed it towards him.

Su Mo smiled, “Master Hongyun is being too formal. I, a re junior with limited knowledge, am not worthy of such consideration.”

“You are worthy.”

Monk Hongyun sighed softly, noting that Su Mo hadn’t taken the tea but didn’t mind, he simply asked,

“Having witnessed what happened today, do you have any doubts, Benefactor?”

Su Mo looked at the Monk with so surprise and smiled slightly, “The Master’s thods are indeed unconventional and unexpected.”

“Haha.”

Monk Hongyun laughed and sighed, “Before I beca a monk, I once saw an Evil Person oppress the good. Back then, I had filled my belly with the scriptures of sages and, although scholars are said to be useless, I believed that with reason on my side, I could convince others with reasoning. Therefore, I argued with the Evil Person…”

Su Mo listened thoughtfully and saw the Monk continue, “Afterwards, I was bedridden for a full three months before I could barely stand.”

“…”

The outco was not entirely unexpected.

Su Mo shook his head lightly, “So people are unreasonable.”

“Yes.”

Monk Hongyun nodded, “So I studied civility and martial arts under a famous master for ten years. Whenever I saw an Evil Person oppressing the good, I’d give them a good beating before explaining to them the principles of sages.”

“How did that go?”

Su Mo looked at the Monk.

The Monk fell silent for a mont, “He listened, cried in pain, and deeply regretted his actions. My heart felt consoled, feeling that my knowledge finally had a place to be applied. But… a month later, when I passed through that place again, I found the smoke of the stove cold, and the place deserted. Upon inquiry, I learned that after I left, that Evil Person had returned in a rage and brutally murdered a family of five good people.

“Then, he took up the sword and vanished into Jianghu like water into the sea, leaving no trace.”

Hearing this, Su Mo fell silent for a mont, understanding what it ant to eradicate evil completely.

Without taking action, one is already remiss, but if the action taken is rely a lesson, how could it truly convince the heart?

Softness in action only leads to suffering for others.

“And then?”

Su Mo asked casually.

“After that… It took thirteen years, but I finally found him.”

But on the elder Monk’s face, there was not much sense of relief.

Instead, he looked deeper into his troubles, “At that ti, the man had abandoned his wicked ways, lived harmoniously with his family—his wife was virtuous, his children filial, enjoying familial bliss. If I had killed him, his wife and children would have hated to the bone, thinking of as the real Evil Person. But if I didn’t… what about that innocent family of five?

“Wouldn’t that sin ultimately fall upon ?”

He then looked at Su Mo, “If you were in my shoes, after finding that person, would you have killed him?”

“Yes.”

After thinking for a mont, Su Mo said, “Why should a murderer enjoy the company of his family, while the innocents perish from this world?”

“What about his wife and children then?”

Su Mo looked at him with a strange expression, “Are you the Buddha?”

“Of course not.”

“Hmm, then a sage?”

“Naturally not.”

“I am not, either.”

“…This.”
