Chapter 56: The Buddha of a Thousand Hands
Sliding along the rope to the ground inside the temple, Cai Hongming found that the following was not the main hall of the temple, but a square corridor outside the main hall for people to rest.
Maybe it's because I haven't seen the light of day for too long, and the temple is gloomy, revealing a strange and terrifying atmosphere.
Suddenly, he remembered something terrible.
He forgot to bring a candle, what if there was a lack of oxygen inside? It is said in the books and on TV that when you go down to a cellar or a tomb or something, you must first ventilate to let the air circulate inside, and then take a candle to see if it can burn, and if it can't burn, you can't go down.
Why did you come down, isn't this looking for death?
Cai Hongming pulled the rope and was about to climb up, but he felt that there was no rotten atmosphere of the old house in the temple, and there was no feeling of lack of oxygen. Took a deep breath, and although it was not fresh, there was absolutely no lack of oxygen. Only then did he feel relieved, took a flashlight and shone around, and walked inside.
The decoration in the temple is the style of the Tibetan Buddhist temple, which he has seen, so it should be a lama temple.
When he came inside, Cai Hongming found that the temple was empty.
To be precise, there is nothing but the Buddha statue standing in the center and the towering Buddha hall.
The Buddha statue is very tall, about ten meters long, with a roof on top and a slightly lowered head, as if looking down at the humble ants in front of you. The Buddha statue is not a thing of Middle Earth, nor is it a thousand-armed Guanyin, because Guanyin is kind and compassionate, but the Buddha statue in front of him has closed eyes and a hideous face. He had only seen this kind of Buddha statue on a thangka.
But it should be a thousand-armed Buddha.
The Thousand-Armed Buddha holds all kinds of magic weapons in his hands, and the one in the front hand holds a demon-slaying vajra in his hand, and a giant eye inlaid with colored gems on his forehead. There is only a broken one in the Buddha's hand, and it seems that the one that the third master picked up should be this one. It's just that I don't know who broke it off and took it out, so that the lucky third master picked it up.
The pillars in the hall are very large, thick and hugging, and there is no sense of decay when buried in the ground.
Cai Hongming knocked on it, and it was very hard. Seeing that there was nothing else in the hall, he took a flashlight to shine on the Dharma utensils in the hands of the standing Buddha statue, although the Buddha statue could not be moved, but if he could bring some Dharma weapons out to sell, he could also make a lot of money.
Thinking about it, he walked up to the Buddha statue and planned to climb up and take down the magic weapon.
The flashlight inadvertently shone into the giant eye on the forehead of the thousand-armed Buddha statue, and suddenly, a colorful light with a charming color burst out from the huge eye on the forehead of the Buddha statue. Cai Hongming was instantly lost in this colorful light.
The platinum dragon seal hanging around his neck was illuminated by this colorful light, and suddenly changed, and a dragon shadow suddenly burst out of the platinum dragon seal and drilled into the giant eye, and then saw a bright light emerge from the thousand-handed Buddha's body, and the gold leaf on his body peeled off piece by piece under the light of the bright light, revealing the flawless white jade dharma body inside.
A loud Buddha sounded.
"Boom moo"
The sound of the Buddha enters the hearts of the people, confuses people's minds, and makes people suddenly tired of the world. At this moment, a dragon chant suddenly sounded in the hall, tearing the Buddha sound to pieces mercilessly.
The glorious flawless body of the Thousand-Handed Buddha slowly dimmed in the sound of the dragon's groan, and when it was about to dim, in the giant eyes, a burst of brilliance suddenly burst out again, and the Buddha's voice reappeared, and in an instant, a brighter and brighter light shone on the main hall than before, suppressing the dragon's groan.
When the dragon's groan was about to disappear, the platinum dragon seal hanging on Cai Hongming's neck suddenly flew out and escaped into the top of the thousand-handed Buddha, and in an instant, a dragon chant that was louder than Fang Cai came out, suppressing the Buddha's voice.
The Buddha sound dragon chant one after another, and finally the dragon chant took the upper hand and suppressed the Buddha sound.
After being suppressed by the dragon's roar again, the originally bright Thousand-Handed Buddha Flawless White Jade Dharma Body returned to calm and turned gray. At this time, a dragon shadow with a platinum dragon seal came out of the giant eye, and it could be seen that the dragon shadow was a little larger than just now. The dragon shadow burrowed out of the giant eye and did not quickly return to the platinum dragon seal, but wrapped around the body of the Thousand-Handed Buddha and flew up.
As it spun, a glimmer of light drifted from the body of the Thousand-Armed Buddha into the dragon's shadow.
It wasn't until there was no more light that the dragon shadow hung on Cai Hongming's neck with the platinum dragon seal, and then disappeared. Faintly, the platinum dragon seal seems to have an extra spirituality.
After the dragon shadow returned to the platinum dragon seal, the thousand-handed Buddha that was high above collapsed and turned into a pile of powder, and the first King Kong Demon Pestle and the giant eye only colored gems rolled a few times, and fell in front of Cai Hongming, who was charmed by the colored light of the gems.
After the Thousand-Hand Buddha statue collapsed, from where it stood, a milky white spring suddenly erupted.
The jade tripod attached to Cai Hongming's chest moved at this time, and suddenly flew out of his chest, covering the spring, and between breaths, all the spring water was stored by it in the broken cave blessed land.
The pillars of the main hall were shaken by the force of the collapse of the Thousand-Handed Buddha, and the tight roof tiles above were shaken to the point that they cracked a little crack, and wisps of yellow sand poured down from the cracks.
After absorbing the milky white spring water, Yuding flew back to Cai Hongming. And at the place where the milky white spring water was spewed out just now, a wisp of clear spring began to emerge slowly.
It was only at this moment that Cai Hongming woke up from the charm of the gemstone colored light, and when he saw the thousand-armed Buddha statue turned into powder in front of him, his eyes couldn't help but widen.
What's going on here?
Suddenly, he saw the Vajra Demon Descending Pestle held by the Thousand-Handed Buddha and the gem inlaid with the giant eye on his forehead lying in front of him, and hurriedly walked over and picked it up.
After reading it, the heart was sent down.
After putting the two things into the broken cave heaven blessed land in the jade ding, he took a flashlight and shone it into the hall, planning to find other magic weapons. At that moment, he noticed that something seemed to be flowing down from above, and when he looked up, he saw that fine sand was constantly flowing down from the cracks on the roof of the main hall. And the thick pillars in the hall seemed to be too old to withstand the force, and they began to shake, looking like they were about to fall at any time.
Cai Hongming felt bad, so he didn't care about picking up the baby again, so he turned around and ran away. Come to the place where you came in, grab the rope, and climb up quickly. When I got outside, I ran forward desperately.
With a "bang", the shaking pillars of the hall finally fell, and countless yellow sand poured in, and the temple that was originally towering was instantly hidden in the yellow sand, and the sand dunes that originally stood above the Buddha hall were also flattened in an instant.
If you haven't experienced it, it's hard to imagine that there is a vast temple here.
After Cai Hongming ran away, he looked back and saw the sand dunes that had turned into flat bottoms, and touched the sweat on his forehead. Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise I would have been buried. After taking a look, he took out the Vajra Demon Pestle from the broken Cave Heaven Blessed Land, and went to meet with the Eighth Gong and the Third Master.
"Hongming, are you alright? It seems like there was an earthquake just now. Hachiko asked with concern.
"I don't feel it." Cai Hongming shook his head.
"You're fine, hey, what's in your hand?" The third master saw the Vajra Demon Suppression Pestle he was holding in his hand and asked.
Hachiko was well-informed, looked at the King Kong Demon Pestle, and said, "It seems that you have got an amazing treasure." ”
This thing is in the hands of the tall thousand-armed Buddha statue standing in the main hall, so it is very large, one meter long, and quite heavy.
"Is it worth the money?" The third master asked.
"Of course it's worth a lot, this thing doesn't need to be so big, it can be sold for hundreds of centimeters or so, let alone such a big one, but I don't want to sell it, because the origin is not clear." And it's a Buddhist temple, maybe people have a record, and it's bad if it's tracked down. ”
Cai Hongming nodded.
The things in the Taoist temple are no more than others, and some temples have records of every stitch and thread, and they may have appeared in similar Buddhist temples. It would be bad if it was discovered, so even if you got a treasure, you can only enjoy it at home. Thinking about it, Cai Hongming didn't feel embarrassed in his heart, he originally wanted to make a fortune, but it seemed that he didn't have to have extravagant hopes.
