Chapter 414: Chapter 295 Monk Comes to Earth_2

These starving beggars, one by one, gathered around, their eyes bloodshot, skin hugging their bones due to hunger.

Qiu Yuan shared some bread with them, but it wasn’t enough—not nearly enough.

Even after distribution, this large group of beggars still followed him.

"There is none left!" one young beggar exclaimed loudly, "How come there’s not even a bit of meat?"

"Where would a monk get meat? His entire body is meat." After dividing the dry food, the beggars followed, laughing strangely.

Qiu Yuan Monk looked at the hungry crowd, their eyes causing him to suddenly have an epiphany.

These people wanted to eat him!

He recalled what Niu Sanda had said, "If master could persuade them not to eat human flesh, I, Niu Sanda, would willingly accept my fate!"

He couldn’t even convert the people of this village.

In his life, he couldn’t convert a single person!

Memories rushed back, as years passed by, leaving only the idle to lament.

In this Mountain and Sea Realm, where even humans were eating each other, it was not surprising that gods harbored thoughts of cannibalism.

Even the Womb of the Earth Bodhisattva was influenced to harbor these malevolent thoughts!

Under this enlightenment and recalling years of experience, feeling disheartened, he suddenly yelled out, "Then, eat me!"

...

...

"So, you ended up being eaten like this?"

After hearing the whole story, Wang Hao remained unshaken. In the past, he would have sympathized with the tragic plight of the monk.

But now, it just felt like another story.

The Qiu Yuan Monk, without question, was a man of great compassion; even through the most critical scrutiny, he was truly a good person.

He spent his lifetime doing plenty of good deeds, annihilating many evil gods, and earning some modest merits.

His reputation had some standing in the Mountain and Sea Realm.

The trouble was, the monk troubled himself, setting far too high expectations on himself, clearly lacking the means to change the world, yet harboring overly lofty goals.

Which was... very difficult.

So, the past him certainly would have pitied this person’s tragic life.

But now, Wang Hao merely analyzed the monk’s actions and their consequences in a much more rational manner.

Frankly, even if there were ten thousand, a hundred thousand monks like him in the Mountain and Sea Realm, they wouldn’t affect the overall situation.

In the face of universally increasing entropy, the local decrease in entropy can only affect a tiny localized area. In a chaotic world, without sanctuary all are doomed, ultimately nothing could really be changed.

"No wonder you say you voluntarily became like this. Foolish, Qiu Yuan, did you really think through this method that you could convert the villagers?"

"But did you consider that some, appearing human on the outside, inside are beasts preying wildly? Hoping to stop such creatures from eating meat is utterly fanciful."

"What purpose is there in stabbing yourself and using the blood that spatters out to scare others? Those predators, smelling the blood, would only want to consume you more. They wouldn’t feel any remorse after eating you."

The Qiu Yuan Monk pressed his hands together and didn’t dare respond, only sighing softly.

"Your disciple is foolish and is at a loss. How can one distinguish when the predators wear human skin?"

Later, even more tragic events occurred.

The monk possessed the Undying Golden Body Technique, which quickly repaired his injuries. Worshipping the Womb of the Earth Bodhisattva for many years made his flesh capable of curing diseases and extending life!

It was like poking a hornet’s nest; even those with a glimmer of conscience joined in eating him.

After being turned into a human pig, he was sold to a wealthy family.

That wealthy family, realizing the monk could regenerate his flesh, became overjoyed, force-fed him to keep him alive, only to cut out a small piece of his flesh every day to prolong the life of their elderly.

But cutting a piece of flesh every day made the monk endure unbearable agony!

This family, fearing "Qiu Yuan" would regain consciousness and seek revenge through Taoist Skill, deprived him of his sensory perceptions and even flayed his skin, removing his sense of touch.

Years later, it was still that "Niu Sanda" who transformed into a Water Ghost Pirate, flattened the village, and finally reclaimed Qiu Yuan’s flesh.

Even though he no longer had to suffer the torment, the monk had completely shut himself off, never to awaken again.

"So that’s how it is." Wang Hao sighed, "That Niu Sanda, during his raid on Qingshi Town, was killed by the local militia. He was like your adopted son, dead beyond resurrection, lament his loss."

Qiu Yuan was slightly startled, sitting down on the ground, muttering the Rebirth Mantra. His wrinkled face looking even older, eventually couldn’t hold back, and began to wail, tears streaming down.

Finally, the monk lamented, "Good and evil will be repaid; he killed so many, committed so many atrocities, yet never repented, and was killed, descending into Hell, it is the cycle of divine justice."

"Niu Sanda, rest in peace, who knows if there is another shore in this world."

This monk, despite having the ability to kill everyone with a single punch, found saving others incredibly difficult.

Eventually, he chose a path from which there was no return.

Old King, still calm and undisturbed, thought about it rationally; good and evil are hard to distinguish, the world is upside down, life and death are uncertain, the current situation of the Mountain and Sea Realm is just so.

In a series of stories, the adopted "Niu Sanda," transformed into the Water Ghost Pirate, was perhaps the most humane among them, truly reclaiming his master’s body, sparing him the agony.
