The night before the puja, the emperor suddenly asked, "I heard that Bo Lan's son is here, why haven't you seen him?" ”

Su Wen turned around in his mind several times, and felt that what the emperor was talking about should be Li Tianlang, the son of the world.

Only then did I remember that Li Tianlang had been living in seclusion since he entered the temple due to his identity, and he was staggered with the royal family when he came out to eat, so the emperor did not see him in the past two days.

"The prince has now changed his name to Xingjue, and since he became a monk, he has been living in seclusion and studying Buddhist scriptures, so he does not know that His Majesty is here. Su Wen explained.

The Emperor let out a soft "oh".

"I'm going to call Xingjue. Su Wen said and turned to go out.

When I arrived at Xingjue's room, I saw him sitting at the table copying Buddhist scriptures, turning his head to greet Su Wen.

"Your Majesty is in the monastery, you can see it. Su Wen said.

Xingjue's hand shook, and the tip of the pen punctured the paper at once. He looked at the piece of paper with a little pity before getting up and asking, "Abbot, why did Your Majesty come here?"

"Let's play?" Su Wen was not sure if the emperor had other intentions here.

Xingjue tidied up his clothes, then went out with Su Wen and came to the room where the emperor was.

The bodyguards didn't know whether they knew Xingjue or got an order, so they directly let the two in.

"Xingjue, I've seen Your Majesty. "Xingjue enters the door and salutes eleven times.

The emperor looked at him, and in front of him was no longer the high-spirited prince, but a young monk. My eyes are calm, and although there are many fluctuations after seeing myself, it is completely different from before. Sighing and asking, "It's all handed over?"

"Some things outside the body, what can you fight for? Xingjue whispered.

"Are you willing?" asked the Emperor again.

"Xingjue is now devoted to the Buddha and no longer cares about those external objects. ”

The emperor took a closer look at this prince who had grown up watching since he was a child, and it seemed that it was indeed different from before, and he suddenly felt a little unhappy. waved his hand and said, "It's good if you think it's good, no one can say whether your choice is right or wrong." It's just that looking at the way you look now, I don't know if you're old or I'm old. ”

Xingjue was silent for a moment, and then folded again: "Xingjue retires." With that, he walked backwards.

Su asked, "The poor monk also retreated." ”

The Emperor waved his hand and did not speak again.

After Su Wen went out, he didn't go back to the room, but found a place to be in a daze. It seems that when I see the emperor again, my heart is not at peace.

In any case, what was the original intention of Xingjue to enter the monastery, and now he does have the appearance of a monk.

……

The second day is the day the puja begins.

In the early morning, the monks in the temple do their morning lessons, and many good believers go up the mountain to help.

And this morning's pilgrims were also extraordinarily large, and during the morning class, two or three thousand people were crowded into the temple.

When Su Wen came out of the morning class, it was already dark and crowded outside.

At 8:30 a.m., the puja officially began, and by this time almost 10,000 people had gathered in the temple.

In front of the main hall, outside the mountain gate, and on the side of the main hall, there are people everywhere.

When Su Wen led the monks through, everyone got out of the way.

Su Wen gave a lecture as usual, without any tuning equipment, and the sound was not loud, but it spread throughout the audience.

Some pilgrims who had not participated in it were surprised. Su Wen was obviously far away, and it should not be too far to speak in such an empty place, but the outermost people also felt as if they were speaking in their own ears.

The royal family was also on the periphery, feeling the sound in their ears, and their faces were surprised.

The teachings have been given, and the six outer altars have officially begun.

The people who presided over the altar were Daoqin, Changguan, Hongren who had just come to the temple, and Hui Lian, Xuyun, and Huaisu.

The strength of the abbot in this puja is also quite strong, and the three eminent monks are abbots of the altar, which is a sight that no monastery can see.

Not long after the puja began, many disciples from various sects who came to study sent out the news.

However, among the six outer altars, it was not one of these three eminent monks who gathered the most listeners, but Daoqin, who practiced closed-mouth meditation.

Dao Chin was just knocking on the wooden fish, but everyone could hear the chanting. This is even more amazing than Su Wen's genius.

As a result, many people who did not understand the Dharma gathered around the altar presided over by Dao Chen, speculating about whether he was ventriloquist or something.

The disciples of various sects and some of the more advanced cultivators gathered around several eminent monks.

The day passed like this, and at half past four in the afternoon, the many altars ended, and everyone rested, had evening classes, had dinner, and then prepared for the flames.

Several members of the royal family were arranged in a corner with excellent viewing positions, and Su Wen pinched the mark on the forehead of several people a few times before starting.

Su Wen and the fourteen disciples then stood in the middle of the room and began to recite the "summons".

"Summoned with one heart, the lonely soul of the former queen and uncle, etc., ......"

"Summoned with one heart, the lonely soul of the hero and the commander is ......"

"Summoned with one heart, the lonely soul of Wenchen Zaisuke and other ......"

As the sound sounded, the temperature in the field dropped rapidly. At the beginning of July, the weather was also very hot at night, but at this time, so many people felt cold and cold in the middle of the lecture.

Jelly Bean, Forrest Gump, Abu, and some fox beasts were originally crowded into the venue, but they were all covered in hair and stood upside down, like hedgehogs, baring their teeth in the direction of Su Wen.

Not many people could see it, but some of the people around noticed their abnormalities.

Originally, the temperature dropped suddenly, and everyone felt that something was wrong, and when they saw their performance, they immediately felt a little hairy in their hearts.

"Single-mindedly summoned, the lonely soul of the literati raising the son and other ......"

"Single-mindedly summoned, the spirit of the farmer and the son of the ......"

"Single-mindedly summoned, the spirit of the Xuanmen Taoist priest and other ......"

When those outer sect disciples saw such a scene, they immediately admired it.

After coming to the Pure Heart Temple for so long, they have learned a lot and seen a lot of things. But now this scene is still what they didn't expect.

The flame vent has been done for thousands of years, just like Su Wen at this time, and it is also one of the few in history.

Jinglian and Xuan Che stared at the field even more closely.

"Summoned with one heart, the lonely soul of the guest in another country and other ......"

"Single-mindedly summoned, the lonely souls of the fallen soldiers and other ......"

"Single-mindedly summoned, the lonely soul of the blood lake birth disaster and other ......"

"Single-mindedly called, its rebellious lonely soul and other ......"

"Single-mindedly summoned, the lonely soul of the woman in the skirt and other ......"

"Single-mindedly summoned, casualties and deaths of lonely souls and other ......"

By the time Su Wen had finished reciting all the summons, the temperature in the temple had dropped to a considerable level, and many people were holding their arms to keep themselves warm.

The emperor and Li Zongping and Li Jiaxi saw that there seemed to be something different in the air, and then suddenly expanded a circle from a point, as if the space had been opened up.

Then countless twisted and greedy faces appeared at the entrance of the hole, staring closely at the middle of the field.

Many faces were still screaming and rushing out, but they were all blocked back. It's as if there's an invisible barrier in between.

Those faces are layered on top of each other, and you can't see them clearly, but you can feel their greed and longing, and feel the "hunger" they transmit.

Li Jiaxi couldn't help but snort softly and took two steps back.

The emperor was calm, his back straightened, and he stood there without moving, with only one sentence in his heart: "I am the Son of Heaven and the king of a country, how can I feel timid for you." ”

"He is the cause of the day, and the result of the day. You don't understand cause and effect, so you will naturally suffer from this retribution. After today, you should sincerely recite the Buddha in order to be liberated as soon as possible. Su Wen looked at the hole in the air, and the countless faces, and whispered, which reached everyone's ears again.

I don't know how many people in the field have an inexplicable sour in their hearts, and they subconsciously join together in the direction where Su Wen is.

The others saw that the people around them were like this, and they did the same.

All of a sudden, the audience was like this, and thousands of people saluted, which was shocking.

Not the kind of posturing, but sincerely.

Even the emperor was shocked when he saw this scene.

He is the emperor, and when he sees other people in the field so popular, he should be dissatisfied.

But he didn't have the slightest idea of that now.

On the contrary, he was infected in his heart, and he inexplicably gave birth to a sense of respect for Su Wen.

From the countless distorted faces above, but also from the sincere respect of the countless people below.
