A cry of "Taiyi immeasurably saves the suffering Tianzun!" In the quiet night, it suddenly sounded from the sky, carrying the sound of rolling wind and thunder, exploding in all directions, causing echoes from all directions, filling the heavens and the earth. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
With this echo, a little golden light suddenly appeared in the night sky, and then it became brighter and brighter, and it became larger and larger, until it rose to ten zhang, and the golden light dimmed slightly. When people squint their eyes and look up, they can see that it is a huge golden talisman, and on the talisman, countless red lights are circulating in the vermilion "pattern", which is as red as blood, which makes people's hearts palpitate.
"Qinghua Changle Realm, East Wonderful Yan Palace. Seven treasures Fangqian forest, nine-colored lotus seat. In the arch of the true ring, in the tens of billions of Ruiguang. Yuqing Lingbaozun, should be transformed into the beginning of Xuanyuan. The catastrophe hangs Tzu Chi, and the great thousand manna gates. The true body of the wonderful way, the purple gold Ruixiang. Random feeling, vows boundless. Great sage, great compassion, great wish. The number of the ten directions, the purification of all beings. In billions of catastrophes, the number of people is immeasurable. Looking for the sound to go to Taiyi to save the suffering Tianzun Qingxuan Jiuyang God. ”
A burst of scripture seemed to float from the horizon, at first the sound was extremely ethereal, but the sound was in the ear, as if someone was whispering in the ear, and later, the sound of the scripture became closer and louder, and finally it caused the resonance of the four directions, and the harmony of heaven and earth. It was as if countless people were singing in the night sky at the same time.
When Ma Chengxiang saw such a vision in the sky, he immediately fell to the ground trembling with excitement, kept kowtowing and kept chanting back and forth, "Taiyi Immeasurable Salvation Tianzun!" ". The faces of the rest of the crowd were momentarily stunned, and they stood dumbfounded, not knowing whether to advance or retreat. Ah Kui's face was also blue and white, uncertain, and he stood in place without saying a word.
The scriptures grew louder and louder, shaking the world. Countless people in Dunhuang City were awakened from their sleep by the sound of chanting scriptures, and soon found that it was as if it was dawn outside, golden and bright. hurriedly put on a few clothes and rushed out of the house.
Heaven and earth should be harmonious, and the four directions will be holy. The huge talisman in the sky, which emitted golden light, shone through the whole city. Although I don't know exactly what happened, there is no doubt that the gods have appeared. The people who had converted to the gods were overwhelmed and dumbfounded. Hermes-Epitek, who had not taken refuge in the gods, knelt on the ground with his family early and prayed for the protection of the gods.
"Great sage, great mercy, great compassion. The number of the ten directions, the purification of all beings. Taiyi immeasurably seeks to save the suffering Tianzun! After the scriptures were finished, the night sky was instantly peaceful for a few breaths, and suddenly a male voice came from the sky, a young Taoist priest wearing a purple gold Taoist temple, wearing a purple ribbon fairy robe, and stepping on the clouds, sat on a white cloud, appeared in mid-air, under the golden talisman, the treasure solemnly bowed to the underground people.
The people who were originally kneeling on the ground in Dunhuang City instantly boiled, and countless people sang "Immortals have spirits, great mercy and great compassion", and kowtowed violently with tears of excitement. The other half of the residents, who only believed in the "gods", instantly became uneasy, and for a while some of them fell to their knees silently and prayed, and the more part of them had uncertain faces and fierce conflicts in their hearts.
"Take refuge in the Tao Treasure, always serve the Heavenly Venerable, and be able to get rid of reincarnation forever; Take refuge in the scriptures, and from generation to life, you can hear the Dharma; Take refuge in the treasure, learn the best, do not fall into evil opinions, Taiyi is immeasurable, seek sound to save suffering, open the Oriental Changle, and Miaoyan Palace. Transcend the undead of the ten directions and save the suffering of all beings! After the young Taoist treasure statue said dignifiedly, he cast his eyes on Ma Chengxiang and asked, "Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" Ma Chengxiang, would you like to take refuge in our way and get close to the Three Jewels. Serve the Heavenly Venerable, believe in good deeds? “
From Ma Chengxiang, he ran to the door and shouted, "Taiyi is immeasurable, save the suffering Tianzun!" From that moment on, Ma Chengxiang had already broken away from the Sect of the Heavenly Gods. The cult of the gods does not worship idols, nor does it sing the praises of any god other than the gods. Where is Ma Chengxiang's current devotion to the gods at the beginning. Regardless of the fact that the Celestial God Sect may not be tolerated in the future, and may even encounter the endless pursuit and killing of the Celestial God Sect, the young Taoist immediately kowtowed and said, "I am willing, I am willing, I am willing to take refuge sincerely, I only ask you to save my wife and children." “
As soon as Ma Chengxiang's words came out, there was a sudden sound of inhalation in Ma Chengxiang's courtyard, and Ah Qian instantly stared at Ma Chengxiang with a blue face, as if he wanted to eat this apostate alive. If it weren't for the "miracles" in the sky that were too amazing, and the conceited people would certainly not be the opponents of this cult "immortals," I am afraid that they would have called on the believers a long time ago and sentenced Ma Chengxiang's entire family to death.
"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Good fortune and longevity are very good. "The young Taoist priest above the clouds is naturally dust. Lichen smiled slightly, pointed at the huge talisman on the top with his right hand and smiled: "I will open the door of transcendence, and surpass the undead of the ten directions." I open the gates of hell and judge the spirits of iniquity in all directions. I will open the door of the right path and expel the demons of the four directions, and I will open the door of blessings and help all beings in our way. ”
The sound of dust fell, and the talisman in mid-air, which was originally several zhang long, once again burst into golden light, and the golden light in Dunhuang City was dazzling, forcing everyone to close their eyes. By the time people opened their eyes again and looked up at the sky, the huge talisman had already covered the entire Dunhuang City.
The golden light is sprinkled all over, and the whole city is splendid. He sat on top of the clouds and recited the scriptures in his mouth.
"It is a sigh that the spring scenery is blooming, persuading the monarch to embroider the lotus village, the glory and wealth are arranged, but the time has passed, the spring scenery is blooming, and the monarch is persuaded to embroider the lotus village...."With the sound of the dust above the clouds, the sound of the scriptures and scriptures sounded, and suddenly countless howls and cries sounded in the originally quiet night sky, and in the shocked eyes of the people of the city, countless old or young, poor or rich, or dead spirits emerged from the ground, and then cried or laughed to the sky in groups, Excited or confused, they drifted towards the sky.
Ma Chengxiang knelt on the ground for a while, and suddenly a lot of ghosts floated out of his house, a female ghost in red suddenly smiled at Ma Chengxiang, and after a cold sweat that scared Ma Chengxiang, Ma Chengxiang suddenly broke out again, and he wanted to find the female ghost in red desperately. But unexpectedly, one of them swooped over, but it was empty. The female ghost in red suddenly bowed. said something to Ma Chengxiang. Ma Chengxiang didn't hear anything clearly. The female ghost in red had already stood up, fluttering like the countless ghosts. Flying into the air.
Ma Chengxiang's heart tightened, and he suddenly rushed home, but he happened to see his wife and children struggling to get up from the bed by themselves.
"Isn't that my father? Daddy! Suddenly, a terrible women's cry sounded in Dunhuang City, as if it had started the rhythm of the noise. Countless "sons", "husbands", "sons and mothers"... The ground cried and died. caused the whole city to cry.
Dunhuang is a place where their ancestors have lived for generations, and countless relatives have died here. There are always countless reasons, the undead here did not find the gate to the underworld, and then wandered in the Yin and Yang worlds and became wandering ghosts.
"Drunk and lying on the battlefield, don't smile, a few people have come back to fight in ancient times." Dunhuang has been a place of war since ancient times, and it is also a place where countless Han sons and daughters died in battle. Among those wandering spirits and wild ghosts, there are countless people wearing this broken armor. These are the souls of those who died in battle!
Lichen's brows moved, and the scriptures did not stop, but suddenly stood up from above the clouds, and pulled out the peachwood magic sword and slashed at the sky. Three huge "Heavenly Gates" appeared inside the huge talisman.
"Last night, the sky was full of colorful clouds, and the sheng Xiao drum music was noisy; Mortals know that the immortals have passed, and the mortal souls of the benevolent realms are in the lower realm..."As the dust scriptures continued to be chanted, the three huge heavenly gates also slowly opened. One is as black as ink inside, leading directly to the Huangquan Difu, and the other is beautiful inside, with steaming clouds. The other one, but the inside is full of golden light, so that people can't open what is inside.
"The case of the white-headed old mother helping the soul, the pink beauty turned into paper money; Wait for the next year's Cold Food Festival, and stop the day. Lichen finally finished reciting the scriptures, and the gates of heaven were all opened, and in the middle of the air, countless wandering spirits and wild ghosts pushed and shouted, so big. Under the golden light, it is half illusory and half illusory. Like countless translucent shadows. Just waiting anxiously outside the three heavenly gates.
"There is no refuge, there is no good deed, enter the gate of the underworld, and pass away." Lichen stood above the clouds, and when he drank, the sound shook the four fields.
Suddenly, there was a cry among the undead. Lichen shook his head and sighed: "Cause and effect before life, reincarnation after death." You and other lonely ghosts wander around, with no place to return. Hugh couldn't be more greedy! ”
After saying that, suddenly the peachwood sword in his hand appeared out of thin air, and a silver long bridge appeared in mid-air out of thin air. Lichen said: "Heaven bears the burden, and all living beings are cause and effect." The poor road drew this bridge, and it was considered to have crossed you once. Taiyi immeasurably saves the suffering Tianzun! Go ahead, may you be reincarnated as soon as possible and have a blessed life in the next life! The dust inspector said to the undead below.
Then all the undead knelt down in front of the dust, thanking for the grace of transcendence. Then they all looked back, or looked at their former family members, or looked at the place where they once lived, and then they whimpered and slowly floated towards the silver long bridge, disappearing behind the huge gate of heaven.
"Take refuge in my way, and do good deeds. Oriental Changle, blessed land and good door". With another slash of the Dust Mahogany Magic Sword, a golden bridge appeared in the sky. But this time, only a small number of souls were attracted by the Golden Bridge and stepped on the gate of the Land of Bliss.
"Fight for the country, protect China, thousands of miles of battlefield, and the heroic soul will live forever!" The dust was drunk. The peachwood magic sword slashed for the third time, but this time it was a bridge of white jade. War drums sounded in the sky, and Lichen saluted the chief below: "Heroic spirits, go well!" ”
After the words were finished, countless battle-dead souls with broken armor were attracted by the White Jade Bridge. For a while, the sound of ghosts crying was everywhere. Those battle dead souls bowed deeply to the dust three times before they stepped on the bridge of white jade. Disappeared into the endless golden light gate.
"Taiyi Immeasurable Salvation Tianzun!" Lichen suddenly chanted, and bowed deeply to the three heavenly gates. Three huge heavenly gates slowly closed. The three bridges of transcendence also slowly disappeared. There are still countless ghosts out there! The ghosts were suddenly in a daze, crying and flying towards the three gates, but an overwhelming golden light suddenly poured out from the talismans, firmly blocking countless souls from the three transcendent bridges.
"Neither my way nor my people. Death in the super-yin, no forgiveness, etc. Lichen held the magic sword in his hand, stood on top of the white clouds, and said expressionlessly. Taoist Dharma is naturally only for Chinese people. These who believe in the Celestial Religion, whether they have yellow faces or not, are not in the Dust Mercy.
In mid-air, countless souls were crying and crying, causing a yin wind to rise. On the ground, half of the people were grateful, kneeling and knocking. After all, it is their relatives and clansmen who are overkill. In the remaining half, some people lost their souls, and some gritted their teeth. Naturally, none of this is what the dust cares about.
"The Dharma is over, you can follow me up the mountain for a few days!" Lichen said suddenly, with a wave of his sleeves, Ma Chengxiang's family, who were still talking about getting together at home, suddenly felt a whirlwind. The whole family was already standing on top of the white clouds in the eyes of the people of the city.
"If you stay at home, I am afraid that something will happen, so let's go to me for a few days!" Lichen explained to Ma Chengxiang's family. Then he bowed goodbye to the people of the city and said, "Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" ”
The sound of dust fell, and the family of Lichen and Ma Chengxiang disappeared without a trace. The talisman that originally covered the entire city also slowly retracted its golden light and disappeared into the night.
The golden light faded, and the moonlight fell on the earth again. The night sky has returned to its former tranquility, but today it is destined that countless people will not be able to sleep at night. When people finally stood up as if sleepwalking and turned back to their homes, many people still said "Bang, bang!" He slapped himself twice, afraid that what he had just seen was just a big dream.
From tonight, Mingsha Mountain will surely become the ancestral garden of Taoism in the Western Regions, and from this night on, the Taoist Gate will be deeply engraved into the hearts of every Dunhuang person. Whether loved or hated, the name of Mingsha Mountain will spread throughout the desert until the end of the heavens, along with the words of countless people who have taken refuge and witnessed miracles.
"Early tomorrow morning, all the three classes of officials will be in place and ready for battle. The official immediately went to the Wenwei Office, Xiangfu, you go out of the city overnight and send it to the barracks, hand over the official documents to Master Su, and ask him to transfer troops into the city overnight! The prefect is also a member of the countless "manifestations" who have bowed down to the dust. As the dust left, the prefect took the whole family up from the ground. The cold wind blew, and the prefect suddenly shivered, and turned around and said with a serious face to his entourage.
"Master, what's wrong?" Seeing that her lord's face suddenly changed, the prefect's wife hurriedly asked.
"Madam, as soon as you are bright tomorrow, you will immediately take your children and all your family members to the Taoist temple to offer incense. Better to stay longer. If Master Ben doesn't pick them up in person, you can't bring them back. The prefect commanded his wife with a serious face.
The night is as cool as water, and the moonlight is as silver as silver. The prefect suddenly felt a thousand heavy burdens on his shoulders, and there was a sense of sadness and sorrow in the wind and water. (To be continued.) )
