Chapter 204: One enters the Medicine Ghost King Temple

Murong Hong turned his head. Seeing my father's lost eyes. Laughed.

"Daddy. Of course I'll protect my sister."

"Ugh." Murong Xiong raised his head. looked at his son in amazement.

"But I didn't protect her to protect her. Those gangsters. Killed my good brother this time. I'm going to get revenge on them." Murong Hong's eyes widened. clenched his fists." I'm Murong Hong. We won't let those who do evil go unpunished. As long as I'm here. I'm not going to let their assassination plan succeed. So. I'll protect her. Not only to protect her. I'm going to catch the real culprit behind the scenes."

"That. That's good." Murong Xiong wiped the sweat from his forehead. Finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"But. You want me to protect my sister. I have to have one condition."

"What conditions."

"Don't force me to marry her. I'm most disgusted by people interfering in my business." Murong Hong said. You're my dad though. But you never raised me. I grew up with my master. Unless the master's words. Otherwise. I don't listen to anyone else. So. Chairman of the Board of Directors. Please don't order me to do anything. OK.”

Looking at his son's resolute and uncompromising eyes. Murong Xiong closed his mouth.

He knows: the son has grown up. It's no longer the baby at the mercy of others in the swaddling clothes. He. Have your own ideas and claims. He. Choose only your own path.

"If God destined that the wife I want to marry in this life is Murong Xue. That. Of course I won't say no." The corners of Murong Hong's mouth. A sly smile flickered. But. My marriage and my career will only be done according to my own heart, which is what we Taoist call 'go with the flow.'"

"Let it be." Murong Xiong nodded. All right. I see."

"In addition. Don't interfere with me at work or in any other way. Don't put too much pressure on your sister." Murong Hong said very seriously. I don't want her to think. I, Murong Hong, am because I have a rich father behind me to help behind me. That's when he gained a foothold in the company. I'm in a hurry to marry her in."

"Okay. I promise you. Things between you and Xiaoxue. I don't care anymore. But. How can I turn down those who propose?"

"Whatever. You can do whatever you like." Murong Hong waved his hand. This is Murong Xue's lifelong event. Who she likes to marry. Just let her marry someone. Father. Don't forget. You're not her real father after all."

"yes. I'm not her real father." Murong Xiong raised his head. Looking at the ceiling. Look blank.

When Murong Hong left his father's office. But he kept his head down. The mood is particularly bad.

This conversation between father and son. not only let him know Murong Xue's life experience. It also made him feel a special sympathy and pity for Murong Xue.

Don't know why. Murong Hong always had a hard time refusing the gazes of those who needed help.

On the bus. When he first saw Qi Ruyun's sad and melancholy gaze. He knew it. I must have a peculiar intersection with this woman. Really. He attached Qi Ruyun's body. Acted as her. And accepted the entrustment of this girl's soul. Until now. He's still trying to fulfill her unfulfilled wishes. And tired and running.

When I saw Uncle Qi's tearful eyes because of the unfortunate fate of a pair of children. Murong Hong also relented.

And this time. When I heard my father describe my sister Murong Xue's life experience. and Murong Xue's helpless gaze frozen by ice. Murong Hong's heart. Suddenly there was a tremor.

These gazes. It's like a knife. Cut on every piece of his flesh. It hurts in his heart.

I should help these poor people. to fulfill their wishes. I should have looked at each other with anticipation for this pair. to fulfill their expectations.

At this time. Murong Hong felt extremely depressed and heavy. It's like you're carrying a thousand pounds on your back.

Though. The master said to himself, "Monks should think of helping the world and saving people". I'm Murong Hong. Just a mortal fetus. It's not Superman. And not a god. So many things. Can I finish it. Can I do well.

Although I have repeatedly convinced myself that I should throw away these things that are not part of my obligation. Should stop. Take a good rest. But. It was evening to the day. Murong Hong still came to Yuanbao Mountain.

He was going up the mountain to find the temple of the Medicine Ghost King Bodhisattva. Seek a panacea for Qi Rufeng.

This. It's Murong Hong.

He's not a god. Nor Superman. Just a mortal. One is flesh and blood. A mortal with seven emotions and six desires. But. This mortal still can't bear to let the eyes of those who need help dim any longer. Resolutely. Or go ahead.

Up the mountain. Murong Hong finally found this temple of the Medicine Ghost King Bodhisattva.

At this time. The sun has set. The temple door is closed.

Murong Hong knocked on the temple door. But knock on the old for a long time. It's just that no one will open the door.

"Is there anyone in there? Anyone. Open the door." Murong Hong shouted loudly. But no one paid any attention to him.

Odd. Is there no one in there?

Murong Hong looked at the temple gate again. It's a bit broken though. But it's clear . The door was bolted from within. There must be someone in there.

He circled around the temple again. Finally on the side wall of the temple. Found a breakthrough. This wall. There's a tree. Murong Hong climbed up the tree. to the top of the tree. He looked into the temple.

This medicine ghost king Bodhisattva temple is not big. Tonggong is a small hall. In the center of the temple is enshrined a black-faced black hand. Hideous. Ghost-like idols. Merely. Behind this hideous and terrifying "ghost". There is even a pattern like auspicious clouds.

Obviously. This is the main god of this temple, the medicine ghost king and the Bodhisattva.

There are also two statues of gods on both sides of the statue of the Medicine Ghost King Bodhisattva. On the left is a cane with a dragon head. Wearing a staff hat. Statue of a white-haired old man in a staff coat. Looks like. It's kind of like land; On the right is a steel fork. A majestic yaksha-like deity. The eyes widened. Murderous.

From the censer in front of these three idols. There's no incense there. Obviously. It's been a while since no one has come to worship here.

"What are you doing over there.". Suddenly. A voice came from under the tree.

Murong Hong was taken aback. Look down. There was an old man standing below.

It's a tall and skinny old man. He wears a blue shirt on his upper body. Wearing black pants underneath. Wearing a pair of black cloth shoes under his feet. This one is dressed up. It's like an old antique that has just been unearthed. At least set back the clock by as long as a century.

The strangest thing is. The old man even had a dragon's head on his right hand. It's the same as the one in the hand of the landlord in the temple. It's longer and bigger than the crutches in the hands of the landlords.

Murong Hong jumped. He jumped off the tree.

"Uncle. I want to go into the temple and burn incense. There's someone in this temple." Murong Hong smiled. Said.

Qi Weimin has repeatedly explained: to the Medicine Ghost King Bodhisattva. Be patient. Be kind and kind to each other. Don't lose your temper. Murong Hong remembered this. So it's a smile on a face when you see someone. Be careful with your words.

But. But the old man didn't eat him.

"Go into the temple and burn incense. Now is not the time to burn incense. You'd better wait until the fifteenth day of the new year to come in and burn incense."

"The first and fifteenth days of the new year. It's going to be a long time." Murong Hong said. I have a patient at home. Today. I'm here to ask for medicine."

"Ask for medicine. We're not a hospital here. Not even a pharmacy. What medicine are you asking for?" The old man said angrily.

"You guys here. So to speak. Uncle, you are also from this temple."

The old man didn't answer. It's a tacit acquiescence.

"Uncle. Since what you wrote here is 'Medicine Ghost King Bodhisattva Temple', of course there is medicine. Otherwise. What's it called'Medicine Ghost King'? Uncle. Can you take me in for a moment? I went to the Bodhisattva and asked for some medicine."

"Young people. If you come for medicine. I advise you. Let's go back as soon as possible." The old man waved his hand." We're just a small temple here. He won't heal. If you pray for a blessing or something? That's probably okay. But if you come to ask for medicine. That. Please go back."

Murong Hong's eyes rolled. Uncle. So I went in and prayed. Make a wish. That's all right. Look. I've come all this way. It's not easy. You can't just leave without doing anything."

The old man looked at Murong Hong. nodded. That's okay. Since you're just here to burn incense and pray for blessings. Then you can come in with me."

"So. Thank you, uncle." Murong Hong was secretly happy in his heart. Just with this old man. Walked into this temple.

But. Walk behind this old man. Murong Hong muttered.

Original. The old man was on a cane with a dragon's head. But he walked. But there was no sign of leg inconvenience. Opposite. Judging by the way he walks and the way he lands. This old man is still in good health. This can't be hidden from Murong Hong, who knows medical skills.

But. Murong Hong didn't say anything. Maybe. They're holding this cane. I just want to be lazy and take a few steps less. Maybe. It's a dog-beating stick. Not necessarily.

But there's no dog here. I think. This stick is used to beat people. It's pretty much the same.

Entered the temple. But the old man walked away. Just one sentence left.

"Incense, candles, and paper money are taken by yourself. Finished. You just throw money into the merit box. We don't make change here. How much to give. Leave it all on your own."

"Thank you, uncle."

Murong Hong found incense candles and paper money outside the hall. And he pretended to burn them in front of the three gods.

But. But he did not bow down to the Bodhisattva, the king of the medicine ghosts. Because he is a Taoist disciple. Only kneel down and worship the gods of Sanqing and Taoism. It is impossible to bow down to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Buddha's house. Since this medicine ghost king is a bodhisattva. So. It doesn't belong to your own direct leadership. I can only burn incense to show respect. and not to bow down.

"The Medicine Ghost King Bodhisattva is above. Boy Murong Hong. Because he is a disciple of Taoism. I can't kneel down for you. Thank you for your understanding." Murong Hong stood in front of the statue of the Medicine Ghost King Bodhisattva. Said to himself." Today, because I was entrusted by a friend. I came to ask for medicine. Pray that the Bodhisattva will give the boy a little elixir. Cure his son for colon cancer. Thank you, Bodhisattva."

But after that's all I have to say. The statue of the Medicine Ghost King Bodhisattva has not changed in any way. Still looking down majestically.

What do I have to say to you, a clay bodhisattva? That said. Isn't it the same as saying it in vain? Murong Hong's heart suddenly had a kind of slackness.

Didn't Uncle Qi say that this Bodhisattva is very effective? After coming in. You'll know what you're asking. What kind of disease do you get? Do you want to take any medicine. But what do I ask you? You won't speak.

Don't. Is it that I don't speak loud enough.

"Bodhisattva. I want to ask you for a medicine. Treat a friend of mine who is seriously ill. I hope that the Bodhisattva will be perfected." Murong Hong said loudly.

The statue of the Bodhisattva is still motionless.

Murong Hong turned his head. But he saw that the temple was empty; The old man is gone.

He frowned. And he walked to the statue of the Bodhisattva. I looked around.

Generally speaking. If only this bodhisattva really had medicine. That these diseases. It's the same medicine. As long as one medicine can cure all diseases. I'll look for it. Maybe. What medicine can you find here?

But. The image of the Bodhisattva is empty. The ground is clean and clean. Not to mention medicine. I just didn't find any slag.

Murong Hong was looking around in the hall. Suddenly. A voice came from behind.

"What are you doing here?" ??????
