Chapter 40: The Abbot
I stood up and began to scold him angrily: "You know the truth, you know that this temple can't protect her at all, why do you want to leave her here alone?" ”
I was already fully prepared to reason with this old monk to the end, even if in the end he used the Taoism he had accumulated all his life to compete with me, Lao Tzu would fight.
But this old guy turned out to be calm, and he didn't mean to explain at all, and I felt a little aggrieved as if I had kicked on cotton.
However, the old monk immediately said to me: "The matter is not over yet, you are optimistic about her, and whoever wants to come in should not open the door!" ”
I was a little frightened by the old monk's momentum, nodded ignorantly, and the old monk went out with his Buddhist beads.
It was late at night, Meng Yunyin still didn't wake up, and the old monk didn't know what to do, and it took me a while to react, and I asked myself, should I let this old thing play tricks? He went back to rest by himself, and let me take care of this girl here for the night?
Just as I was about to go out to question him, suddenly, a gust of wind blew over, and the sound was very loud, as if the wind was blowing through some small hollow, but I was familiar with the structure of these wings, and there was nothing narrow at all, and if there was a sound like this, it was only one reason - the wind was too strong.
However, in this kind of mountain, which is not high or low, it is normal to have wind, even in my hometown, on the ground surrounded by mountains on three sides, the wind is encircled in the col, and it blows all year round, and when I was a child, I would be afraid that I couldn't sleep because the wind was too loud.
But such a strong wind suddenly blew, which is indeed very abnormal.
Sure enough, I hesitated for less than a minute, and I remembered the sound of the old monk chanting the scriptures outside the door, Mimi didn't know what she was reading, but soon, the voices became more and more, more and more mixed, it seemed that everyone began to read.
I suddenly remembered the old abbot's words, I can't go out, no matter who comes, I can't open the door.
I slammed the door and returned to Mengyunyin's bedside, a little nervous, grabbed the scissors in my hand, and said that if they couldn't do it, I would fight it.
"Tuk Tuk ......"
At that moment, there was a knock at the door.
The old abbot's words echoed in my mind again, and I gritted my teeth and pretended not to hear, but I didn't open the door.
"Donor, I've already done the Fa, that monster must be gone, you open the door, I'll go in and check on Xiaomeng's situation."
I was stunned for a moment, a little unsure of how to answer, and then I began to regret that I was just angry and forgot to contact the old abbot with the code, so how do I know if the people outside are real or fake?
"Tuk Tuk ......"
Seeing that I didn't make a sound, the other party still didn't give up, the knock on the door came again, I took a deep breath and said, don't knock, it's too late, you come back tomorrow!
Now, the old monk is in a hurry. He knocked on the door eagerly again, and said, donor, don't make trouble, if Xiaomeng's situation drags on until tomorrow, I'm afraid he won't wake up!
I have actually been entangled in my heart, as soon as I got entangled, the hand holding the scissors unconsciously began to exert force, and I didn't even notice that my thumb had touched the tip of the scissors.
The knock on the door came again, and the voice seemed a little urgent: "Donor, what's wrong with you?" Is there something going on inside? Quick, let me go in and see Little Dream! ”
I looked at Meng Yunyin, she seemed to be in some pain, frowning, her mouth opened and closed, and I didn't know whether she was talking or shouting pain, my psychological defense line completely collapsed, and I also believed the words of the old monk outside the door, I said, I can be called a little fairy, if you dare to play tricks, see if I don't poke you out of a hole with scissors!
I put the scissors in my pocket and pressed my bleeding thumb as I went over to open the door for the old monk.
But as soon as my hand touched the deadbolt, Meng Yunyin suddenly spoke, she didn't open her eyes, she just stretched out her hand to me, and said with a painful expression: "Don't ...... He's not a master, don't open the door......"
My heart jumped as if I had missed a beat, and I was so frightened that I quickly stepped back two meters and took the scissors in my arms.
As if knowing that we had seen through his disguise, there was no movement outside the door soon, replaced by a rolling sound of monks chanting scriptures, and I dozed off when I heard it.
Meng Yunyin seemed to be awake for a few seconds, and after the movement outside the door disappeared, she fell asleep again, I called her several times, but there was no response at all.
Just when I was about to fall asleep in a daze, there was a knock on the door, this time it was the voice of the old monk: "Young man, the matter is done, open the door, and I will go in to see how my precious apprentice is!" ”
This time the tone of my voice was completely different from just now, I did not have the slightest doubt, so I went to open the door, and as soon as I opened the door, I saw the old abbot standing outside the door, I was a little excited, and grabbed his wide sleeve and pulled it in.
But I didn't expect that as soon as I touched him, he suddenly stepped back, trying to pull me away, I slept a little blindly, I didn't have time to think about anything, and pulled him again, saying, Master, don't you want to go in to see the girl's situation, let's go!
In the next second, the old abbot in front of me began to emit a kind of black gas, first his face, then his clothes, the old abbot became a little blurred, and soon, it turned into a wisp of black smoke, and it was gone, and at the moment when the black smoke completely dissipated, I seemed to hear a scream, exactly the same as the sound I heard when I cut Mengyunyin's hair.
I watched as what I had been holding in my hand was gone, and when I opened my hand to look at it, I realized that my finger, which had just been punctured, had not yet scabbed over, and was still bleeding outward.
I just wanted to put it in my mouth, but then I remembered that it was something that I had touched after all, so I would wash it and talk about it.
This time, the sound of chanting outside the door finally really stopped, and the abbot and a few little monks hurriedly ran into the wing, as if everyone was very precious to the only female dependant in this temple.
After the old monk saw Meng Yunyin, he didn't gather there with the other little monks and didn't leave, but walked up to me, grabbed my hand, and frowned.
I looked at the old monk's empty right hand and asked him, where are your Buddha beads?
It took the old monk a long time to come back to his senses, and he replied to me and broke it.
