Chapter 21: Evil Bones
Lu Ren returned home, and although his father Lu Zhen saw that he was not in good spirits and was exempted from family law, he was still locked up in confinement. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But he was repeatedly frightened by nightmares in confinement, and the old man in the family was distressed, so he sent him to Xiangguo Temple, wanting to use the majesty of the Buddha to get rid of the filth.
After a leaf came to Xiangguo Temple, it coincided with several grand Buddhist events. was summoned from Youzhou by the will of the imperial court, and he became famous in Beijing because of these Buddhist events. But all the powerful families in Beijing do not know its reputation.
When Lu Ren came to Xiangguo Temple, it happened that Yiye was getting up to send off a distinguished guest. The people of the Lu family looked at the iconic sedan chair outside the door, and they knew that Master Yiye, a distinguished guest, was the Yun Wang Ye who was now in the limelight and was fighting against the first auxiliary minister Yang Tanwen, and the Nine Emperor Uncles of the Holy Heaven today.
This Yun Wang Ye and the first emperor are more than twenty years apart, and they are the youngest brothers in existence, and now they are only thirty-five years old, which is the heyday. When he was young, he was good at poetry and music, and he was famous for his elegance and a rare beautiful man. Even as the years passed, he could still see the demeanor of his youth on his face. He is tall and straight, and has a graceful and noble air.
"Master Yiye doesn't have to send it away. Now that the weather has turned cold, the master should pay more attention to his body. If you suffer the cold because you send this king, it is the sins of this king. ”
Yiye recited the Buddha's name: "A skin is not worth caring about." Since the prince of Yun has a heart for the Buddha, the poor monks should help themselves. He folded his hands and said, "Dreams are vain and obsession." If the obsession is removed, it will be at ease immediately. Please also ask the prince to consider it himself. ”
The cloud prince also gave a salute, and then followed the servant into his palanquin.
Yiye returned to the living room to sit quietly. Not long after, a monk brought Mrs. Lu, Xiao Meng, and Lu Ren.
Because of the fright, Lu Ren slept very unsteadily at night, and was often awakened by nightmares; During the day, they can also faint in fear of sudden sounds. After tossing and turning these days, people are already haggard, and they suddenly seem to be ten years old.
Mrs. Lu had sent someone to inform Yiye of today's visit before, so Yiye probably knew why these two people came from.
Yiye opened the lid of the beast head incense burner and replaced it with new spices. Seeing the faint white smoke rising from the spices, he spoke:
"The poor monk learned the general purpose of the two donors yesterday, but please ask Lu Shizhu to tell the poor monk about the events of that night in detail, okay?"
Yiye's deep voice carried the power to soothe people's hearts, making Lu Ren, who was originally nervous and nervous, gradually relax:
"I got lost that night on the way back. I heard the sound of someone nearby. I had planned to go back with that man, but who knew that I had come to the abandoned ancestral hall of that family. ”
Mrs. Lu grabbed the handkerchief in her hand: "Maybe what the eldest young master saw was not the ancestral hall." After all, it has been deserted for a long time, and there is no table for the table, so it is possible to be wrong. ”
"No, it's an ancestral hall, it's an ancestral hall, I'm not mistaken."
Yiye half-closed his eyes: "What did the donor see in the ancestral hall?" ”
Lu Ren shuddered: "I see, I see someone inside." No, they're not human, they're ghosts! ”
Lu Ren raised his voice, and Mrs. Lu tightened her veil in fright: "How many times have you said it, where are the ghosts?" Master, you are just nervous for a while, and you are wrong. Maybe it was the refugees in there at the time. ”
Hearing this, Lu Ren was about to refute, but he was opened by Yiye first:
"What kind of person is it?"
"It's black, like a shadow...... No, it's a person, it's a black person, there is a substance, but it's ...... It was like a cloud of black smoke, and finally it was like smoke, and it dispersed all at once! ”
"What are those people doing?" ”
"They, they're talking, they're killing. Blood, I also see blood. ”
Mrs. Lu looked apprehensive: "Master, look, what my son saw, is it a person or something unclean?" ”
Yiye twisted the Buddha beads in his hand, and his expression was calm: "It's not a person, it's not a ghost, it's an obsession." ”
"What obsession?"
"Before a person dies, the obsession formed by what he thinks and thinks in his heart. or the favorite thing in life; or the person he hated the most in his life; Or the sorrow before death. What Lu Shizhu said just now should be the scene of that family before they died. Because the obsession in my heart is too deep, it will reappear at night. According to the poor monk's opinion, what Lu Shizhu saw that day should not be the first time to reappear, nor will it be the last. ”
Meng had also sent a letter to Mrs. Lu before, and the letter did mention that after Lu Ren, some people had seen "hauntings" several times. So I believe a little more in my heart about Yiye's words.
"Master, what should we do? The boy had been so frightened that he couldn't sleep well every night, and he was haggard. Ask the master to save him! Mrs. Lu burst into tears when she spoke, and Lu Ren on the side also shed tears.
Yiye recited the Buddha's name before he said: "If you want to save Lord Lu, you need to know the ins and outs of this matter." Know who the victim is? Who was the perpetrator that day? What was the reason for the murder? What I said, do you know what Lord Lu knows? ”
Lu Ren shook his head: "I don't know." I just see them killing, talking......"
Kazuha interrupted him: "What are they talking about?" ”
When Lu Ren heard this, his body trembled nervously.
Yiye asked again: "What are they talking about?" ”
Lu Ren opened his mouth and squeezed a sentence out of his throat with difficulty:
"They're talking ...... 'immortal.'"
With the exit of the word "immortal", the atmosphere of the entire meditation room seemed to become strange. Curling white smoke filled the room, as if flowing cold air coldly swept through the exposed skin.
Immortality, what a strange and seductive word, but it seems to be full of stale blood.
Lu Ren and Mrs. Lu seemed to be stunned, and stiffly maintained their movements just now, not moving.
Yiye opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a sharp light flashing in his eyes. At that moment, sitting on this futon was not an enlightened monk, but an evil ghost crawling out of hell.
Yiye understands that he still has the bloodthirsty bitterness of the Tu family in his bones.
Compassion does not parasitize on such cruel flesh and blood.
He recited the Buddha's horn aloud, and the two people opposite woke up like a dream, feeling as if they had just had a dream. The two of them thanked each other and hurriedly exited the meditation room.
As soon as he got out of the meditation room, the cold wind outside the room blew, and Lu Ren realized that he was in a cold sweat, but he felt that his spirit had become sober. Mrs. Lu next to her was still a little pale. Although Lu Ren is a gentleman, he is still very close to his stepmother, so he hurriedly asked his subordinates to help her into the sedan chair and set off to return home.
Not long after the two men left, the door next to the meditation room where they had just met opened open, and a well-dressed man stepped out of the room. The man had a graceful temperament, dressed in a brocade robe, and stood in front of the simple meditation room, as if the whole courtyard was lit up.
That person was the Yun Wang Ye who had just "left" before.
Lord Yun's gaze swept over the meditation room where Yiye was, and then left with his hands in his hands.
What he didn't know was that when he looked at the meditation room, Ichiba, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and stared coldly at his figure until he left.
A leaf extinguishes the incense in the furnace, takes out the residual incense, and puts it in a brocade box to put away. After doing this, he returned to the futon and sat down and chanted.
