Chapter 417: Messing up the venue, what is the intention
The rainbow ceremony was very lively, but the open space in the center of Baiyun Temple was very peaceful and quiet.
Through the cracks in the doors and windows, I saw several monks with solemn faces carrying a corpse wrapped in yellow cloth to a platform in the middle of the clearing, and then sitting cross-legged and sitting around the corpse with one hand upright, silently reciting mantras.
At this time, many lamas and monks who watched the ceremony also came to the rainbow site.
Different from the assembly in the Central Plains, these lamas and monks who are dedicated to the Buddha are extremely quiet, although there are circles of people around the ceremony, but no one speaks, one by one they will freeze their solemn and solemn eyes on the platform, neither one entertains them, nor does the guests take the initiative to make noise, they all sit down very consciously.
After nearly half an hour of calm, a monk slowly walked up to the high platform.
At the forefront of the march was Venerable Panzhi, who had been close friends with Venerable Tongshan for many years and was the presiding officer of the puja, and when he took the stage, he sat on the edge of the corpse, twisted the beads in his hand, and recited and prayed with several lamas.
Then the person who appeared was the chilling supreme master Zen Master Lianzhu, who also walked to the high platform, and then sat down cross-legged and chanted with the Venerable Panzhi.
Feng Li looked at it for a while, very puzzled, and then turned around and asked Chen Xuanyi, what are these people doing?
Chen Xuanyi didn't understand, just shook his head and said to keep watching.
It was the first time for us to observe the rainbow ceremony, and we didn't understand many of the cutscenes in the ceremony, and we could only stay in this small room, so we missed a lot of steps in the ceremony, only to see that as time went by, more and more monks stepped into the high platform to chant.
And in the face of the mantras of many monks, the corpses that were covered in Huang Buxia quickly appeared some changes that we couldn't understand.
First of all, the corner of the yellow cloth was lifted, and then, the old lama, who had been dead for a long time, actually sat up stiffly, as if he had been injected with a new soul, and actually put his hands together and sat cross-legged on the ground.
This scene shocked us a lot, and Feng Li said with a trembling voice, "What's the matter, why did the lama's corpse sit up again and come back from the dead? How is this possible?"
I was also surprised, with an expression that I had never seen before.
Seeing the two of us like this, Chen Xuanyi shook his head and explained, "This is not a resurrection from the dead, but a brief recovery of the body that absorbed a lot of natural energy before the rainbow transformation of the great virtuous monk, and he is indeed dead." ”
After listening, Feng Li and I stopped asking.
In fact, judging from my Qi field sense, this person is indeed dead.
The number of people who came to watch the ceremony was half hundred, but the venue was not noisy, except for the sound of chanting, there was no noise at all, all the lamas who came to watch the ceremony, under the guidance of the guiding monks, each found a futon to sit down, put down the prayer building, all sat cross-legged in front of the body of Master Tongshan, and began to chant the scriptures.
The recitation of this scripture is endless, wave after wave, countless chanting sounds around the beam, and occasionally there are Buddhist instruments singing, which is particularly solemn, making people admire, eager to bow down and worship.
The chanting continued wave after wave, which had lasted for more than an hour, and the lamas sitting in the audience, both young and old, were all masters of chanting and chanting, including Ah Jiang, who we knew well, also with his hands folded and a pious appearance.
This went on for a long time, so long that when we were all a little tired of it, in front of everyone's eyes, the body, which had lost its vitality, actually moved again.
Only this time, the situation is different.
In my Qi senses, a strange rainbow ring was formed around the body, like an aura, which was gradually emanating, including the dirt around the body, all of which fell to the ground, and the entire life magnetic field of the body suddenly became bright and shining.
Then the corpse opened its eyes, which were empty and unfocused, but the expression was not smiling.
I saw him turning his neck, as if looking at his disciples, at the many monks who had come to watch the ceremony, and at me hiding in the corner.
I came into contact with his eyes, and it was a vast starry sky, like the most beautiful mist, deep, and empty.
Then the center of the entire venue changed, with the body of Master Tongshan as the center, there was a faint rainbow light, this rainbow light quietly dispersed, enveloping his body up and down, as if forming a huge and incomparable true Buddha, light and shadow moved, constantly swallowing.
I was gradually stunned, immersed in it, completely unable to extricate myself, and many of the monks who were watching the ceremony also became excited and excited because of the appearance of the rainbow light.
Around the body, more Buddha light is slowly blooming, and in the process, a magnificent power that seems to be able to penetrate the void and attract mortal dust is also slowly manifested in the form of rainbow light.
"Is this how it behaves when it is rainbowed?"
Feng Li and I were stunned, what we felt in our hearts, but I couldn't describe it, I only felt that the whole consciousness also followed the appearance of the rainbow light, becoming more and more empty, and my heart seemed to have an understanding, but I couldn't express it.
At this time, the sound of chanting mantras became louder, and the sound waves in the air were already transmitting, making a buzzing sound, and finally it became the same resonance, causing the air to vibrate at a high frequency.
I calmed my palms, heard the wonderful sound of the Dharma in my ears, and unconsciously immersed myself in it, and then I heard Feng Li whisper, "Look, the body is actually burning!"
Indeed, after being baptized in the Buddhist scriptures thousands of times, Venerable Tongshan's body has begun to bathe in flames.
This kind of fire seemed to spread slowly from his body, burning on one side, emitting an invisible rainbow light on the other, and as the rainbow light source continued to project into the sky, the body shrank smaller and smaller, as if it had been drawn into the void space beyond the nine heavens.
However, just when everyone was staring intently to see where these rainbow lights would be, there was a sudden sharp sound of breaking the air in the viewing hall, and then, a gray figure broke in in embarrassment and fell into everyone's eyes.
It's Liu Zhen!
This Maoshan law enforcement elder was full of disordered breath at this time, his face was dark, and he looked extremely sloppy, and he also had many injuries on his shoulders and back, and his hair looked very messy.
He quickly broke into the venue, and he would yell at the monks on the high platform, "No, stop, stop......"
The originally long chanting sound soon came to a halt, and many lamas looked at Liu Zhen in surprise, among which Master Lianzhu reacted the most, he stopped chanting, jumped up directly from the futon, and said to Elder Liu Zhen, "It's you again, you stole the Zen relics the day before yesterday, and today you came to stir up the saffron venue, what is your intention?"
