47, Baosheng Buddha
When Wu Zhong reacted, the scenery in front of him had changed greatly. Wu Zhong looked around, not to mention the brown hills in front of him, and even the yellow spring was nowhere to be seen. With this move, Wu Zhong couldn't calculate how far he had flew.
Wu Zhong looked at that person and muttered in his heart: Isn't this person really an immortal?
"It's here. The Taoist said softly, interrupting Wu Zhong's thoughts. Wu Zhong saw that he was pointing into the distance, so he looked over.
At the end of the Taoist's finger, there is a thatched hut. This thatched hut is made of gold and silver, glittering, but it is out of step with its surroundings. Near the thatched hut, there were no fields, no chicken coops and duck coops, only endless souls. As far as the eye can see, there are too many to count.
Wu Zhong was suddenly frightened in his heart when he saw it: Isn't this person going to let himself kill and save people?
The Taoist seemed to guess what Wu Zhong was thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't let you die." It's just that you do need to walk into that grass hut. When you walk into the hut, you will meet a person, and all I ask you is to bring a word to that person. ”
Wu Zhong swallowed his saliva and said nervously, "What words?"
"Two thousand years have passed, have you ever waited for that person?"
With this sentence in his arms, Wu Zhong walked towards the grass house in the distance in a daze. Secretly, he kept calling Xuanbai, but he never got a response.
There were more and more ghosts around him, but when they saw the hundred clothes on him, they all felt a sense of fear and retreated far away. Seeing this situation, Wu Zhong was relieved.
Soon, Wu Zhong came to the thatched house. The thatched hut is not large, and it seems that it can only accommodate one person to live in it. There was a large stone mill outside the door, and a well, but it seemed that it had not been used for a long time.
As soon as Wu Zhong entered, he was stopped by two figures coming from nowhere. Wu Zhong took a closer look, and it turned out to be the legendary bull head and horse noodles.
"No inconsistencies are allowed here. The bull head said.
Wu Zhong was stunned, he didn't expect there to be such a rule. He wanted to say that he was not a bad guy, but he didn't say it, otherwise they would definitely ask where these hundred clothes came from, and even do something with him.
"I was entrusted by an immortal to speak to his deceased. Wu Zhong lied.
Niu Tou was stunned when he heard this, immortals, old people, these two words had already shocked him. He thought of the master in the grass house again, and he had the heart to let go. But before the words were spoken, the horse on the side spoke.
"Even then, we can't let you in. We are under the order of King Qin Guang to take care of it here, and without his old man's order, no one can enter it. After Ma Mian finished speaking, he glared at the bull head, and the bull head suddenly became conscious, and quickly nodded in agreement.
"That is, how can you let a little yin go in for nothing, and then be known by King Qin Guang and his old man, and we will not be punished. ”
After the bull head finished speaking, he looked at Ma Mian as if he was invited, and Ma Mian looked forward with his eyes slightly open, and his expression did not change at all.
Wu Zhong watched the two sing and harmonize, and immediately knew what the problem was.
He once remembered that in "Journey to the West", Tang Seng went to the West to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures, and he still needed funds to make money, otherwise he would not be able to get the scriptures with words. By the way, it's called "personnel", but in fact, it's gold and silver treasures.
"The two great gods, the little one is unprepared for this time, the little one is not, and he knows that he doesn't understand the rules. It's better to do this, the two great gods will give me the address, and then I will order the family members in the world to burn some good things for the two of you, what do you think?" Wu Zhong looked at Ma Mian and said.
When the bull head on the side heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Ma Mian again.
"Ahem, in fact, we can't help it, after all, this is an errand ordered by King Qin Guang, and we are just doing our own duties. Like the ones you mentioned, we're just doing it just in case. Isn't there a saying in the world, 'Hades is better, but the little ghosts are difficult'? These things are okay to play the little ghosts, but if you want to talk to those big people, this is obviously not enough. The horse's face looked embarrassed.
Wu Zhong watched from the sidelines, and muttered in his heart: You also know the phrase "Hades is better, but the little ghost is difficult", I think you are a little ghost.
The horse pouted Wu Zhong and sighed: "I know this is really difficult for brothers, otherwise, there will be fewer ghosts another day, and I will find a way to let you in." When the time comes, you can hide your eyes and ears. ”
Wu Zhong didn't know that he was prevaricating him. Not to mention whether this ghost can be fewer, even if he can, he will have to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse?
Wu Zhong smiled and said, "Big brother said that it was funny, how can you be responsible for this matter, and the responsibility is also mine." In this way, a few days ago, I was on a mission in the world, and I accidentally got two beauties, which looked pretty good, so I should honor you, just one of you and one piece, what do you think?"
Wu Zhong said as he took out the jade he had obtained from the rat spirit from his arms and stuffed it into the hands of the two of them.
This bull head and horse looked at it, and his eyes lit up. Everyone doesn't know that there are not only two people, but many of them, just like civil servants, everywhere. However, although they belong to the same level, the treatment varies widely.
These two people offended the black and white impermanence of their management more than 2,000 years ago because of their private bribery, and when this happened, they were sent here to guard the door. The suffering of more than 2,000 years is really unimaginable, not to mention the bad treatment, during the New Year's holidays, people have food to eat, and they can't even drink soup. One can imagine how poor it is.
Wu Zhong looked at the two of them, their clothes and armor were already in tatters, and the weapons in their hands were also rusty, and the overall situation was not as bad as the yin difference they had just encountered, and they looked really pitiful.
"Brother, look at what you said, take people's money to eliminate disasters for others, even if you are responsible, my brother will bear it. But you can go in, I can't control if people don't talk. I've been here for more than 2,000 years, and I haven't seen him say a word. Ma Mian accepted the salute and immediately became polite.
Wu Zhong hurriedly waved his hand and said that it was okay, and then went in.
As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, the atmosphere around me was suddenly different, and there was no eerie horror of hell, but a trace of peace. Even in the world, this kind of breath will not be emitted by people without great virtue, which shows that the people inside are really extraordinary.
Walking into the thatched house, Wu Zhong saw that there was only a stone bed, a pair of tables and chairs, a Buddha statue, and an old oil lamp. And there was only one person in this grass hut.
This man was a monk. His face was peaceful, his eyes were slightly open, and he was dressed in a white robe, which was already a little tattered, and it seemed to be some years old. At this time, he was holding a string of Buddhist beads with an ordinary texture but emitting Buddha light, and nothing else.
"Junior Wu Zhong, meet the master. "When Wu Zhong saw this kind of pious cultivator, he had always been respectful.
The master slowly raised his head, looked at Wu Zhong, and smiled slightly, "You are here." ”
Wu Zhong was stunned for a moment, did he know that he was coming? Also, the conversation he had with Niu Tou Ma Mian at the door naturally couldn't escape his ears.
"Master, I met an immortal chief outside, and he asked me to tell you a word. Wu Zhong said.
The master smiled and said, "What words?"
"Two thousand years have passed, have you ever waited for that person?"
The master's expression did not change when he heard this, but he turned the Buddha bead in his hand and said softly, "Wait." With that, he got up and walked outside. Seeing this, Wu Zhong hurriedly followed.
The bull-headed horse came out of the master's face. Hurriedly bowed and saluted. It was as if the master had not seen them, but in the face of these thousands of souls, his heart of compassion was suddenly born. I saw him sit down slowly, tidy up his clothes, stand alone on his chest with his right hand, twist the Buddha beads in his left hand gently, close his eyes slightly, and begin to recite the scriptures.
The scripture was not loud, but it slowly spread to all souls as time progressed. I saw that the Buddha's light behind the master slowly emitted, and the soft light covered every soul, and the emotions such as anger, unwillingness, and helplessness in the soul's heart slowly transformed into peace.
As the master slowly recited the scriptures, the voice grew louder and louder, and finally resounded through hell like a Western Brahma chanting. And the master slowly floated up, and finally stopped in mid-air, and for a while, the Buddha's light was flourishing, shining on the universe. At this time, as if time had stopped, all the ghosts bowed down to the master reverently, and Wu Zhong looked at it in his eyes and sighed in his heart.
After a long time, the master finally stopped preaching, and then a loud voice suddenly came from the sky: "Congratulations to the Buddha for the completion of his merits." As soon as the words fell, the Buddha's horn suddenly sounded between heaven and earth, and the sound of "Amitabha Buddha" lingered in his ears and never dispersed for a long time.
After a while, the light of the Buddha in the sky slowly dissipated, and the Treasure Buddha disappeared. When Wu Zhong looked back at the ghosts, all of them looked peaceful, and finally turned into streamers and floated into the distance.
The bull head and horse face on the side were already stunned at this time, and they didn't know how to express it at all. It wasn't until Wu Zhong called these two that they reacted.
"I've got to go, you give me an address, and I'll get you something good when the time comes. Wu Zhong said.
Ma Mian grabbed Wu Zhong's hand, making Wu Zhong stunned. He said excitedly: "Brother, as soon as you come to the master, you will soar, and our errand will be considered to be over." Don't say anything, nobleman! In the future, I will use my brother and my place to say it directly, and I will never shirk it when the time comes!" After speaking, he gave Wu Zhong a small note, "This is the address of the cave for the two of us, and you are welcome to come at any time in the future." ”
Wu Zhong took the note and looked at it, and was immediately happy, this word is written crookedly, and it is not as good as a primary school student. But he folded the note and put it on his chest: "In that case, I will leave." This time, I was able to successfully complete the task thanks to the two of you, and I will be waiting for you when you need it in the future. Farewell!" he jumped and walked into the distance.
The bull head and horse face were moved by tears, no matter what they thought, they never thought that things would end so successfully. And after this incident, after going back, the black and white impermanence did not dare to embarrass them again, and King Qin Guang would also be impressed by them, and even the King of the Earth Bodhisattva might summon him, thinking that the day of the future was close at hand, he was really happy and didn't know what to say.
Soon Wu Zhong returned to the Dao man, and the Dao man was also full of joy when he saw him, presumably he knew about the big movement just now.
"I'm back, I'll take you away. ”
