Chapter 725: The abbot is out of the customs to see what's going on
Deqing immediately asked, "Did it appear again?"
"Well, there it was again, and he seemed to be deliberately trying to lead me somewhere. Is there a Jedi in Xiangguoji?"
"Jedi, probably not, even if there is, even I don't know, how can outsiders know. "Deqing Road.
"I'm not talking about Jedi in feng shui, but Jedi that are suitable for ambushes. ”
And there was a strange feeling that the demon was deliberately leading him somewhere, and he didn't know what it meant.
"Nope. Xiangguo Temple doesn't have the kind of Jedi you said, but there are many such places in Qingliang Temple. Deqing thought about it.
Besides, I thought that there was still Qingliang Temple in Nanjing, but unfortunately he had never been there, and now he consciously grounded all kinds of temples, I don't know if it is the base of the Qinwang faction, if so, it may not be appropriate for him to visit rashly.
Qingliang Temple is the ancestral court of the Huayan faction, and Master Qingliang is also the authority to expound the "Huayan Sutra", of course, this is the past of the Tang Dynasty, and he doesn't know what the current Qingliang Temple looks like.
Since there is no such Jedi, what does this demon mean by attracting him like this?
The demon is not destined to have such a leisure heart, and since he does so, he must have more malicious intentions.
Besides, he ignored this induction, but the malice and murderous intent staring at his back became more and more intense, and the hairs on his whole body couldn't help but stand upside down.
"How are you...... Is there no problem?" Deqing was a little worried.
"It's okay, he's just provocative, but he's hiding like a mouse, and he doesn't dare to show his face at all. Besides, he said loudly, believing that the demon would be able to hear him.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the murderous intent on his back was even stronger, directly penetrating into his skin, and suddenly a qi machine in his body suddenly activated, and that murderous intent and malice were melted away like residual snow under the blazing sun.
Immediately, besides, the qi in his body was also gone, and he didn't realize which one it was, but there were two unknown energies in his body.
"Besides, brother, let's go see the first seat of the Pranya Hall. Deqing pulled and left.
"It's useless. All you have to do is get my word out, and I'll get out of here. There are so many people here that it's too hard to find the murderer. "Besides, he had to go out.
"But you're in danger. Deqing pulled him and didn't let go.
"No, if he really wants to hurt me, he will do it a long time ago, although I don't know what's going on, but I can feel that he can only dare to attack me under certain conditions, as long as I am careful, it doesn't matter. ”
The two tugged at each other and couldn't hold each other.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind: "It's the young man, I've been looking up for a long time." ”
The two hurriedly let go of their hands, and when they looked back, Deqing said happily: "Master of the prison court." ”
Moreover, when he saw a tall middle-aged monk standing in front of him, and heard Deqing call him the master of the prison, he knew that this was the director of the Great Xiangguo Temple, which was actually the position of the director of the later generations.
The abbot has the right to hold a temple, but there are also various positions below, generally have the first positions such as the Panruo Hall and the Luohan Hall, and these more prominent positions are generally held by Buddhist masters, who preach the scriptures and inspire the future. The temple has four halls and eight halls, which is related to the size and specifications of the temple, and some small temples do not have a hall at all, and there is only one scripture to worship.
In fact, the prison is the chief manager, who is in charge of the food, drink, and money of a temple, and everything that has nothing to do with preaching and teachings is under his control.
Besides, he stepped forward and saw the prison.
The prison said with a smile: "Gongzi, please come with me, the abbot is just out of the customs and wants to see Gongzi." ”
Besides, the subtitles rolled over in my chest: I guess this is a change of mind, how can it be such a coincidence.
He didn't say much, he followed the prison all the way, and Deqing naturally followed, and the three of them didn't speak.
When they came to a house, they were faced with a row of fine houses, but the prison led them straight through to a separate small room at the back, and then bowed down and said, "Abbot, Gongzi is here." ”
"Please come in. There was a sound inside.
Besides, before he entered the house, he had already asked about the smell of sandalwood, and heard the faint sound of chanting, and when he stepped over the threshold, the sound of chanting stopped.
Inside is just a simple room, a table and a couch, there are a few futons on the ground, a thin old monk is standing up from the futon, and said: "The son is far away, and he has not come far away, and he hopes to forgive his sins." ”
Besides, he said with a smile: "I'm sorry to disturb the master's Qing cultivation, the disciple's residence is not far from here, and I came to visit today." ”
Deqing followed behind and smiled secretly in his heart: People are just kind words, you are more serious.
Besides, I am angry in my heart, these people will not see each other for a while, what kind of fame is they doing, and regard him as a person who comes and goes as soon as he is recruited?
The abbot had an indifferent smile on his face, and seemed to see what was going on, and he didn't explain, but just waved his hand to let the prison and Deqing go out.
"Childe, you shouldn't come here, some rules still make sense, and it's all for Childe's good. "The abbot does not maintain his image as a worldly master, and is straightforward.
"I know, it's just that it's urgent, and I have no other way but to rush to find it. "Besides, the purpose of coming to the temple and the things that happened in the temple were all revealed.
"Childe said that the demon is in our Xiangguo Temple?" the abbot asked no longer dwelling on the rules.
"Yes, I can feel it. ”
"Why?" said the abbot.
"Why I don't know, I can sense it anyway. Besides, he said.
"No, I'm not saying why Childe sensed it, but why did the demon stare at Childe?, do you know his purpose?" the abbot asked.
"I don't even know about that. ”
The two of them stood and talked, obviously the abbot did not mean to talk for a long time, but wanted to finish the conversation quickly, so he did not invite him to sit down.
"Originally, we were not suitable to participate in this kind of thing, but since this demon may be coming for Childe, of course we can't stand idly by, so Lao Wei thinks that it is better to let a few warrior monks in the temple follow Childe day and night and protect him closely. ”
Besides, I suddenly felt angry in my heart, and said coldly: "I'm not here to seek protection, it's not that there are no people who protect me now, but there are too many, and I don't ask for anything, I just want to use some channels to help me find out this demon, and I'll do the rest myself." In addition, it doesn't matter what it means to have nothing to do with me, doesn't Buddhism also pay attention to subduing demons and eliminating demons? Shouldn't this kind of demon be suppressed in the eighteenth layer of hell?"
"Buddhism's demon subjugation refers to the demons in one's own heart, not the demons outside. Get rid of the demons in your heart, and the four are empty outside your body, so how can you say that demons and monsters are there. The abbot laughed.
"In that case, I am only an illusion, so why should the abbot bother to protect me?"
The abbot smiled, even if he was profound in Buddhism, he couldn't explain this, and he couldn't really regard the world around him as nothing because the four major ones were empty, but according to Buddhist theory, everything was just an integration of illusions.
"Now that the entire temple has been fully monitored, don't leave until it's safe to leave. Let Deqing accompany you to have a good rest for a while, there are still many places worth seeing in this temple, and the son may wish to rejoice everywhere. After the abbot finished with a smile, he called Deqing in, and then ordered Deqing to say a few words.
Deqing agreed, led him out, and then asked, "What did Master Abbot tell you?"
"I didn't say anything, I knew it was so, why did I come to see him?" said angrily.
He originally thought that the abbot would have some practical content when he received him, but he didn't want him to leave Daxiangguo Temple immediately and let him stay here longer.
"Don't blame the abbot, although I don't understand the things here, I can feel it, and the abbot also has a lot of helplessness and many rules to follow. Deqing smiled bitterly.
Moreover, he had nothing to say, he didn't know what rules this organization, which was mainly composed of temples, and what they were for, and what he was thinking about now was whether his words had been spread.
Temples like Daxiangguo Temple, Hanshan Temple, and Hangzhou Lingyin Temple are not only independent temples, but also the upper part of the Buddhist organization, and there are many middle and lower temples below them, which are under the management of these big temples, so it is a whole organization that is both vertical and horizontal.
Besides, what he wanted them to do was to use all the channels of this organization to find that demon, and he didn't hope that these monks who chanted sutras and chanted Buddha would get rid of him, as long as they found him, it would be victory. The seventy-two stick monks of Shaolin are just the product of exaggeration, and they are still much worse than those who are actually outside the world.
Now the first executioner he chose for this demon is Xiao Jun, maybe only a master like Xiao Jun can kill this demon, the so-called wicked have their own wicked grinding.
Moreover, he was invited to a hospitality room by Deqing, where it was magnificent, with a color of Nanmu tables and chairs, the porcelain on the table looked like a Xuan kiln, and a Buddhist shrine also enshrined a glass box, which was a relic.
"Buddha relics?" and came up close to watch.
"This is the relics of Patriarch Daoyan. After Deqing entered the door, he saluted, and when he got closer, he saluted again before he spoke.
"The relics of the Daoyan National Master?"
Besides, he was a little speechless, Dao Yan was able to burn relics, which was really unusual, Dao Yan was a national teacher like Liu Ji, but he was by no means a monk.
"Exactly, this was also the room where Emperor Renzong and Emperor Xuanzong were entertained. ”
Besides, when I looked at the wall, sure enough, there were several words on the wall covered with fine gauze, all of which were covered with imperial seals, and the last signatures were all the names of Renzong and Xuanzong.
The inscriptions of Renzong and Xuanzong are naturally the best to sing the praises of virtue, and praise Daoyan higher than Liu Ji's position.
This is not surprising, Daoyan has been doing his best to protect Renzong during the most dangerous period of Renzong, in fact, it is also to protect Xuanzong, if Renzong's crown prince is deposed, Xuanzong's imperial grandson will naturally be gone, and the fate of father and son is worrying. The world only knows the surface of this thrilling history, but does not know what it is.
