Chapter 164: Live Chickens
"What's wrong?" Chang An's tone was panicked, and he pulled his sister to the door.
Ling Long glanced at them, walked to the gate, and found that there were many villagers gathered outside. The men were also carrying torches......
Good retro lighting tool.
This side of the hall is a hollow gate, you can see the outside, it is not daytime, otherwise they are standing here, it is easy to be found by people outside.
Ling Long didn't expect this group of people to give away their heads like this, but thinking about it, the system arranged for her to come today, maybe it was to prove what these villagers would do today.
She whispered to the Chang sisters and brothers to hide and look outside with Lu Huanong.
"It looks like they rallied not long after we left." Ling Long put away his phone, at this time, it was inconvenient to hold that thing.
They were walking slowly, and they had been checking for a long time after they came in, so it was likely that the villagers had come directly after they had assembled.
Eleven.
sub-hours.
This time......
The white-bearded old man who knew how to read before led the group of people and stood under the platform, the old man waved his hand, and a few people walked up to the stage, Ling Long glanced at Lu Huanong, turned around and went in to hide.
However, in addition to the Buddha statue, there is only one incense case, and the sister and brother barely hide behind the Buddha statue. Ling Long and the two of them also squeezed in, and they couldn't get a little fat.
She put her phone at her feet, only revealing a little bit of shooting, and the black light was blinding, and it was estimated that others would not notice.
She asked the audience to help with the broadcast.
There are too many enthusiastic viewers in Linglong's live broadcast room, and there are not a few who type fast, and some people even describe it very well. Therefore, even if Ling Long hid, he knew about the situation outside.
The angle of the mobile phone is not complete, but it can also be seen as an approximation.
All the doors of the temple were opened, and the villagers walked up to the platform one by one, kneeling reverently on the platform. Their expressions were extremely solemn, and under the leadership of the white-bearded old man, they bowed.
He didn't raise his head for a long time, and the whole hall could hear the old man's prayer.
I just don't understand.
Ling Long communicated with the system for a long time before he got some news.
This is something that the villagers do every seven days, praying to the gods to bless the village and bless all the villagers.
The sacrifice they contributed was a living thing, Ling Long hadn't seen it before, and the system told him that this time it was a live chicken.
The whole process lasted for a long time, and after the old man's prayer was over, the villagers bowed again, the gate closed, and they left en masse.
When those people were far away, Ling Long came out.
She also went to see it, and everyone went back, in an orderly manner, and there was not even a little noise from anyone.
When I think about it, it seems that no one has spoken at all, only the voice of the old man chanting prayers.
"My limbs are stiff." Chang Ning patted the dust on his body, and it was a pity that he didn't see anything.
Lu Huanong cleaned up his clothes and frowned: "It's weird, I always feel a little bit like worshipping Buddha." ”
Ling Long looked at her, "That old man's chatter is quite uncomfortable. ”
Piety is very religious, but it doesn't feel like something to do with Buddhist scriptures...... The system says that it is a prayer, and the general idea is that it is just to bless peace. But why does such content give people an uncomfortable feeling?
"You feel that way, too?" Lu Huanong's expression was serious, and he turned his head to stare at the Buddha statue.
"But the Buddha statue looks normal." Ling Long also looked at the Buddha statue, a normal Buddha statue...... Also the strangest place.
The live broadcast task has been pointed out to be the [Secret of the Buddha Statue], but what kind of secret does this Buddha statue hide?
"What's on this black cloth?" Luvernon remembered that there was no such thing before.
She walked over to the incense table and hesitantly stretched out her hand.
Ling Long grabbed her wrist, "It's a live chicken inside, but it's not responding now, maybe it's fainting?" ”
"Chickens can faint too?" Lu Huanong paused, and looked at Ling Long with complicated eyes, "How do you know it's a live chicken?" ”
"For worship." Ling Long was still thinking about this, and she told Lu Huanong that she also wanted to analyze together, "Have you ever seen a living thing for a Buddha statue?" ”
"Even Taoists have never heard of ......worshipping with living creatures," Lu Huanong's expression was solemn, "So, if this is really a live chicken, then this chicken is the key?" ”
Buddhism pays attention to vegetarian offerings, and although Taoists can accept meat, they have never heard of the use of living animals.
Ling Long looked at Lu Huanong, "I suspect that if this chicken wakes up, it will probably ......."
"Then open it and take a look?" Luveron is a man of action and doesn't like to be timid.
Ling Long looked at the pair of sisters and brothers, and seeing Chang Ning's curious look, she didn't bother to talk nonsense, "Then ...... If we don't open it, will this chicken be here for a long time? ”
"And we're going to wake up the chickens through the cloth?" Lu Huanong felt that this operation was a bit difficult, "Let's open it first." ”
"Be careful." Ling Long always felt that this chicken must be the key.
This is the only thing that those villagers worship.
Lu Huanong picked up the cloth bag, there was a very strange knot wrapped around it, and he was trying to find a way to open it, Chang An suddenly ran over, and his voice was very low, "Someone is coming outside!" ”
"Hide first." Ling Long's consciousness reached into the ring, took a piece of talisman paper, and after hesitating, walked to the corner of the wall and squatted there.
"What is she doing?" Chang Ning asked Lu Huanon.
Lu Huanon glared at her and said silently, "Shut up!" ”
Ling Long was gambling, betting that the other party would not notice her if the other party was blind in the dark.
It was a talisman paper with a hidden aura, ordinary people would subconsciously ignore her, unless they looked at her seriously, under normal circumstances, no one would know that she was in this corner.
In order to see clearly, Ling Long hid on the side of the gate, which was very dangerous, but at least after the other party entered the door, it should be difficult to be discovered.
It's the white-bearded old man who came in!
Ling Long was a little nervous, the old man obviously didn't expect that there would be people here, so he didn't look around at all. He walked straight to the incense case, first lit the incense, then knelt down and kowtowed a few times before he stood up.
When he picked up the black cloth bag, the old man hesitated a little, and Ling Long estimated that Lu Huanong had been discovered by the old man.
However, the old man quickly opened the cloth bag and took out the chicken inside.
It seems that because there is nothing wrong with the chickens, the old man only thinks of himself as careful.
At this time, something surprising happened.
The old man took the chicken, bypassed the incense case, walked to the Buddha statue, and stepped on the base of the Buddha statue to climb up! is a lot older, and he actually climbs quite neatly.
The Buddha statue may have had this purpose in mind at the beginning of its design, so the old man had a suitable place to stay every time, Ling Long looked at it carefully, trying to remember the location.
I saw the old man standing on the hand of the Buddha statue, which was a slightly stable angle, and the appearance of a flowered finger.
The old man didn't know what he pressed, and the chest of the Buddha statue actually opened!
Ling Long could barely see that there seemed to be a figure inside, but the old man put the chicken inside, and the mechanism on his chest was closed.
The old man retreated.
After coming down, the old man lit the incense again, kowtowed again, and hurried away.
I didn't find Ling Long.
Ling Long secretly looked outside and confirmed that the old man had gone back into the woods, and then took down the talisman paper.
"Let's go, let's come out first."
"It's so heavy." Lu Huanong was on the outside, and when she came out as soon as possible, she frowned, looked up at the Buddha statue, walked to the front, and asked Ling Long, "Who came over just now?" What about chickens? ”
"It's the old man." Ling Long looked at the Buddha statue and wanted to go up and open it, but the cloth bag was taken away by the old man, and the chicken was thrown in.
With such a heavy yin qi, you still eat live chicken...... It can be seen that it is not a good thing.
"There is a mechanism on the Buddha statue?" Lou Vernon heard the sound before, and even felt a vibration because her body was clinging to the Buddha statue.
"Well, I'm going to go up and have a look." Ling Long had already walked behind the incense case.
"Be careful." Luveron stared at her landing.
The old man was skilled, and it seemed easy to climb up, but Ling Long was not very good, and he even almost slipped several times. The startled Lu Huanong stretched out his arm below, for fear that Ling Long would fall.
The palm of the Buddha statue is very large, Ling Long can still sit on the thumb of the Buddha statue, and there is a black rumbling in it, and she still has to find the switch of the mechanism.
"You wait for me, I'll go up too." Lu Huanong climbed up, similar to Ling Long, and it was quite difficult to climb up.
"We two young people are not as good as an old man."
"Don't laugh at this time." Lu Huanong was a little speechless, and with Ling Long's hand, he also came up, "Haven't you found the mechanism yet?" ”
"Hmm...... But it should be around here. ”
Luveron leaned sideways to hold the Buddha statue, "Let me go over and have a look." ”
Ling Long cautiously swapped places with her.
"What's in there?"
"I didn't see it clearly." Ling Long gestured, "You can open it here." ”
Lu Huanong studied for a long time, and he didn't know if it was the blind cat that ran into a dead mouse, and the mechanism was really triggered.
The Buddha statue in front of them slowly parted, revealing what was inside.
"It's disgusting......" Luveron almost threw up.
As soon as it is opened, there is a rancid smell and bloody smell, irritating the nasal passages.
"It's a Buddha statue too!" Ling Long happened to be face to face with the Buddha statue, and the Buddha statue gave people an extremely uncomfortable feeling. There is no compassion for others, and it is more uncomfortable than the one destroyed in the stupa.
The chicken before was placed in the hands of the Buddha statue.
The Buddha's hands were made into the shape of a card slot, and the chicken's head was pinched there, bleeding at this time.
Lu Huanon was not small, and he also observed it carefully, "No wonder I haven't heard the rooster crow, it goes straight through my head." ”
"There should be something underneath the Buddha statue." Ling Long frowned.
She saw that the blood in the hand of the Buddha statue was flowing down a small hole.
But after shining it with a flashlight, I can't see what it looks like below.
The Buddha statue does not seem to be able to reach the bottom except for another Buddha statue stuffed inside.
"What then?" Lu Huanong covered his nose, "Why don't you close it first, I'm about to throw up." ”
"Turn it off."
Ling Long pondered and climbed down the Buddha statue.
