Chapter 33: The Deal with the Devil
"Who are you?" ,
When Master Puhang saw the man with the black hood, he felt that all around him had been frozen, and he was sure that the other party was by no means human, and the other party's unusually bright eyes were definitely not human. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"I'm Rhima!"
The man took a step back, still hiding his body in the darkness, he didn't seem to like it very much, the black flames rising from his body were emitting white smoke,
"I used to have many names, and you humans were very afraid of me, they called me Yama, the god of death, but I am the son of Xudu, and after my father died, I will be Hades!
Puhang, your wish is not something that human beings can achieve, and your Buddha will not help you, only I can help you! What do you think? Do you need my help? ”
"Ruma?" ,
Master Puhang did not show much fear of this evil god who was heinous in the books and legends, in fact, he was still unsettled, he knew that this evil god had come to make a deal with him.
"Excuse me, if you help the old man, what do you need the old man to do for you?"
"That's right! I need you to exchange! His eyes sparkled in the darkness,
"You are a truly noble person, in these hundreds of years, I have rarely seen you, you are like Xuanzang in the past, his love for the world surpasses himself, and I have also made him make a choice......
Puhang, do you know the story of King Jizo Bodhisattva? ”
"Of course!" ,
Master Puhang replied calmly,
Seeing the suffering of the beings in hell, the Bodhisattva felt empathy, and made a vow to go to hell to save the sentient beings, and said, "If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell!" Hell is not empty, and you will not become a Buddha! ”。 Although the Jizo Bodhisattva is in hell, he is cool and comfortable, and although he vows not to become a Buddha, he has actually attained the Buddhahood, which is a kind of selfless dedication.
Are you letting the old man sacrifice his life for righteousness? The old man originally intended! If you can stop the fighting, please take the life of the old man! Amitabha~~. ”
Ruma stared at Master Puhang in the darkness for a long time, the color in his huge eyes slowly darkened, and the black flames burned more and more fiercely because of anger, but Master Puhang folded his hands and recited the scriptures without fear, and a faint light seemed to rise behind him.
At this time, Ruma suddenly walked out of the darkness, like an enraged beast, he lowered his hood, revealing all his face, the earth instantly froze, time stood still, and the blood of Master Puhang also stopped flowing, as if his soul had been captured by Ruma!
"Puhang, don't despise and tease me, I know you see me as an evil ghost, but you are a mortal, in just a few decades of life, how can you know that in this world, there is no good and evil.
You have gray hair, and your life has no meaning to me, but you have a most precious thing, if you give me this thing, I will help you fulfill your wish and quell the fire of war in a foreign land.
In order to redeem others, are you willing to give up your faith and attachment and give me the qualities that you have always been most proud of......? ”
Chen Zhi obviously felt that when he heard this, the master of Puhang at that time hesitated,
"Abandon morality? Falling into the ...... of the Demon Dao", Master Puhang's body trembled.
"That's right! and become a man of all wickedness and filth," replied Rima,
"What's wrong? Puhang, have you flinched? Do you cherish your pure and noble soul more than you redeem others? It's okay~~, no one will ever poke you, I can even increase your lifespan, you can do whatever you want in this world, but no one will know, you are still a beloved monk, just like many monks in the past, ~~~~~ hehehehe~~~~~~"
"Be a hypocrite? Is there dirt in your heart, but you live shamelessly? ”,
Puhang really felt the fear, and his soul was afraid in the cold,
"If that's the case, even if I'm glorious, what's the difference between me and the walking dead? If I do commit sin, then it will ............ after death."
At this time, Chen Zhi felt the extreme pain and entanglement in Puhang's heart, and his heart was very anxious, but those orphans whose life and death were unknown suddenly appeared in front of him, and those immature eyes that were looking forward to him.
In the end, he made up his mind............
"What is selfless dedication, that is, the dedication to others without having self, and if you cherish your soul more than others, then what is selflessness?
If sacrificing one's life is considered a kind of dedication, then letting one's white and flawless soul be defiled, and the degenerate endless demon path is the real dedication! If you do something to hurt someone at that time, kill yourself............."
After Master Puhang made a decision, Chen Zhi couldn't see what happened after that.
The scene after that was very fragmentary, Chen Zhimo vaguely saw the corpses of the girls on the ground, their deaths were very miserable, and their naked bodies were filthy, but at that time, Master Puhang could no longer feel guilt and pity, he only had irrepressible magic obstacles in his heart, and he couldn't even commit suicide, because he couldn't control himself now.
But in the deepest part of his soul, where there is a place that Ruma can't see, there is still the most true Master of Puhang, that compassionate and noble monk, and his greatest wish now is to ......, to be liberated!
Suddenly, Pu Hang's aura was all retracted, Chen Zhi's body was as if he had been shocked, his hand was released, and Chen Zhi staggered back two steps, breaking away from the vast aura.
Chen Zhi looked forward and saw that the elderly Master Puhang had closed his eyes tightly, folded his hands, and said no more.
"Oranges! Are you alright? You see how rude you are, why did you just hold someone's hand and not move? ”,
Fat Wei saw that Chen Zhi's face was full of iron, and knew that something was wrong, so he pulled Chen Zhi's shoulder and kept glancing.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and the assistant monk rushed in with several men armed with firearms.
"Bastard! Who do you think you are? Dare to investigate Master Puhang, do you know how many people Master Puhang has saved in his life? ”,
"How can you dare to insult my Buddhist monks, how can you ...... this",
Those assistant little monks were obviously angry, the few people behind them were holding guns, and the muzzles of the guns were aimed at Chen Zhi and Fat Wei, while the other little monks couldn't help but pull them out of the door, they were all angry, and they could see that Master Puhang had a very high status in their hearts, and they would never allow others to desecrate.
Chen Zhi didn't have any resistance, and before he left the door, he turned his head to look at Master Puhang.
Master Puhang didn't say a word, just sat there like a clay fetal Buddha statue, slowly twisting his Buddha beads, Chen Zhi saw that Master Puhang seemed to have a tear under his eyes.
These little monks were so excited that they didn't even allow them to explain, and directly drove them out of the Tianfa Temple and threw their things out.
Chen Zhi and Fat Wei had no choice but to go to the hotel first, and when they returned to the hotel, Mu He and Ye Qing were waiting for them in the room......
Mu He's face was very bad, and when he saw Chen Zhi, he immediately said,
"The investigation of Tianfa Temple must be terminated immediately, there are already big people on it, and we can't ............afford to mess with this big Buddha."
