126: Tiger Zen
Happy New Year 2020. Today's first watch, the second watch must have, whether there is a third watch before 12 o'clock depends on luck. Even if it wasn't before 12 o'clock, it should have been more than half an hour.
——————
Looking at the three corpses lying in the dirt, including the Blood Shadow Fierce Monk, the Assassination Demon, and the Yin Crying Man, Fang Xiaohou Ye was not satisfied, and still shook his head regretfully. Sighed: "Like this, I can't even kill with one punch, I have to throw two punches in a row to destroy an enemy." Alas~ Kung Fu still can't be practiced at home. ”
Cheng Lifeng said lightly: "Perhaps, it's not that Brother Fang can't practice kung fu at home. It's just that these goods are too rubbish, and they haven't made Brother Fang interested in showing real skills. However, once you've eaten the hors d'oeuvres, it's time for the main meal. I believe that Shen Huchan's dinner will definitely satisfy you, Brother Fang. ”
Fang Xiaohou smiled: "Yes? I hope so." No, Brother Cheng, is Shen Huchan really in the monastery? Why did we make such a big disturbance here, and he didn't react at all?"
Cheng Li spread his hands: "Yes, yes, yes." As for why he didn't come out, who knows? Rather than speculate here, let's just go in and ask him personally. ”
Fang Xiaohou nodded his head and said, "That's right." Then Brother Cheng, please. ”
Cheng Li also said: "Brother Fang, you're welcome, please." With his hands behind his back, he stepped across the threshold of the mountain gate, and Shi Shiran walked towards the temple.
The two walked side by side, through the front yard of the temple. Facing it is the most gorgeous and spacious building of the entire Shangyuan Temple, the Daxiong Treasure Hall. The door of the temple is half-hidden, but faintly, and the sound of wooden fish and chanting floats out from the crack in the door. The smell of sandalwood also came to the nose. Not only is it refreshing, but even the hustle and bustle in the chest is also quiet.
Cheng Li took the lead in stepping forward, stretched out his hand and pressed on the door, and then gently pushed. The door opened silently and backwards. The bright sunlight immediately shone into the hall of the Mahavira Treasure. I saw that in the center of the main hall, there was a statue of the Buddha who enshrined the Buddha. On the left and right, the statues of Fugen Bodhisattva and Manjushri Bodhisattva are enshrined, respectively. Under the Buddha statue, there is an incense table, on which several fruits are placed as offerings. Before the incense case, a big man was sitting cross-legged on a futon, beating wooden fish and muttering Buddhist scriptures. Beside him, there was also a knife stuck in it.
Seven feet long, weighing 100 pounds, the cold light of the blade flickered, teaching people palpitations. It's really huge, heavy, and sharp! But only such a knife is worthy of this big man.
His hair was like a lion's mane. Feel free to fasten it with a gold ring. The muscles were tangled, and the pieces were stacked and beating, and it was clear that there was an almost inconceivable explosive force hidden in them. Even though he sat cross-legged, he was still not much shorter than Cheng Li and Fang Zhan who were standing on the ground. Its true height can be imagined.
Tiger, Tiger, Tiger! Anyone, as long as they see this big man in front of them, will definitely think of this fierce beast known as the overlord of the mountains and forests and the king of all beasts for the first time!
However, at this moment, this humanoid tiger is sitting cross-legged in front of the Buddha statue, muttering sutras reverently. Everything looks like it, but it is so natural, and there is no sense of disobedience. There is no doubt that this is the so-called Buddha-nature, which is "Zen".
There was no need to take a second look, Cheng Li and Fang Zhanmei both knew that this big man, who had been muttering scriptures with his back to the visitors from beginning to end, was the person he was looking for on this trip - Shen Huchan.
Such a master, no matter at any moment, must see and listen to all directions, and no matter how subtle the movement around him, it is impossible to hide him. Cheng Li and Fang Zhanmei did not hide their intention to hide at all, and they came all the way, and Shen Huchan didn't know the reason at all.
But Shen Huchan simply ignored the two of them, and continued to chant sutras. Cheng Li and Fang Zhanmei didn't bother him, just stood aside and waited patiently.
After a long time, Shen Huchan had finished reciting a volume of "Diamond Sutra", and the sound of the wooden fish was immediately paused. Fang Zhanmei thought that the other party was finally finished, and immediately said, "Shen ......"
Before the words fell, the sound of the wooden fish suddenly sounded again. Shen Hu Chan actually began to chant again. And this time, the scripture he recited was like "The Mantra of Death".
The scripture of "The Mantra of Death" is not long, and in a moment, it has been recited completely. Shen Huchan exhaled softly, and then very seriously, put down the wooden fish and the small hammer that struck the wooden fish, and set them up. Only then did he slowly say: "The Curse of Past Lives is intended to eliminate the karma of troubles and give the deceased the opportunity to be reborn in the Western Pure Land of Bliss. It's good to be a brother. When they die, I will give this volume of "The Curse of Death" as a final parting gift. ”
Fang Zhan Mei said coldly: "They?, are they the Blood Shadow Fierce Monks, right?, but with your ability, you can actually save them and keep them from dying." Why don't you save it?"
Shen Huchan still didn't look back, and even his tone was calm, without the slightest change: "My 'brothers', all of them are heinous. The phrase "more than innocent" is simply made in heaven for them. No matter who kills them in this world, they all kill them with the same confidence. How could I do such a stupid thing when my brain didn't get into the water. ”
Fang Zhanmei sneered: "Since you also know, they are such a bunch of garbage. Then you recite the Mantra of Death for them? Do you think they can be reborn in the Pure Land of Bliss?"
Shen Huchan said lightly: "Of course it can't be. With the sins committed by a few of them, once they enter the Yin Division, they will have to go through it several times. Reborn in the Pure Land of Bliss? At least for ten lifetimes, they don't think about that good thing. It's just that whether they can be reborn in the Pure Land or not is their business. Whether or not to recite the mantra is my own business. The two cannot be mixed. ”
Cheng Li smiled and applauded: "Not bad, not bad." It is possible to combine the ferocity of the 'tiger' and the goodness of 'Zen' in such harmony with each other. Shen Hu Chan deserves to be Shen Hu Chan. ”
Shen Huchan said lightly: "Sure enough, I came prepared." Tell me, who are you?"
Fang Zhanmei coughed and said, "This is Brother Cheng Licheng, because he has made great contributions to the imperial court, he was given the title of Marquis of Longcheng." Below, Fang Zhanmei, the younger brother of the current queen's mother, was also given the title of Happy Marquis. But I'm ashamed, I'm just a rich idler who eats and waits for death, and has nothing to do, haha~"
Shen Huchan is still unmoving. said: "Oh, a Marquis of Longcheng and a Marquis of Happy Living, they are all nobles of the imperial court." I don't know what the two of you want to do when you come to me, a thief, can't you come here to burn incense and worship the Buddha?"
Cheng Li said in a deep voice: "We came here to find you just for two words: Yan Chong." ”
These two words came out, and Shen Huchan's majestic body was as immovable as a mountain, and it was a shock when he boarded. He took a few heavy breaths. In the air, it was as if something had suddenly appeared, and it made people feel tingling on their skin. It's as if you've been stared at by a big man-eating tiger.
But how is this possible? Although there is a tiger at the moment, this tiger has not turned around at all, and it has not even looked at Cheng Li and Fang Zhan Mei. How can it make people feel numb in their skin?
