I didn't meet any more acquaintances along the way, and I rarely even saw people, and with the current time, most people should have gotten up a long time ago. Anyway, when he finally returned home, Bai Zhengxi immediately locked the door, then hid in the room, put the Buddha statue on the bed, took off his clothes and didn't care that his body was dirty, and the whole person hid in the bed.

The experience of these two days is too terrifying, and so on, and I am not sure if it has been two days, and I have long been unable to distinguish time and memory. It's too incredible experience, so that the heart that came out of the White Horse Temple has not been calm, and he killed someone, and the fear and hesitation in his heart at this moment made Bai Zhengxi not know how to face it, even if he was hiding at home, his body was trembling all the time. Bai Zhengxi wants to sleep well, maybe when he wakes up, he finds that everything is a dream, but this kind of self-consciousness is useless at this moment, where can he fall asleep, especially when he sees the Buddha statue, the scenes he has experienced emerge again, and he has suffered unspeakable pain again. Even so, Bai Zhengxi didn't think about losing the Buddha statue, and even went further, holding the Buddha statue in his arms, for fear of being taken away.

Bai Zhengxi's behavior is completely inexplicable, and he himself has noticed this, but he just can't have the mind to discard the Buddha statue. In order to divert attention from the Buddha statue, Bai Zhengxi began to think about Li Xiong's affairs, afraid of exposure, and then the police came to the door, waiting for his result, there was only a dead end. The fear and anxiety about the incident was quickly replaced by another incident, when the three of them were fighting with Li Xiong, why the other party suddenly "showed mercy" was completely unreasonable, if the three of them were really sympathetic, they would not have been beaten before.

Thinking about it carefully, the three of them suddenly stopped when they were about to attack, with the same expressions on their faces, with hesitation, and even saw a hint of guilt. Bai Zhengxi couldn't believe that Li Xiong and the three of them would feel guilty, but after thinking about it carefully, he really saw it, but he was too nervous to care about it at the time. It was something that he couldn't figure out again, and suddenly, Bai Zhengxi looked at the Buddha statue in his hand, and then couldn't take his eyes off it. The thoughts that suddenly appear in my heart are related to the Buddha statue, and it must be that the Buddha statue has Buddha nature, and when the Buddha statue is in hand, the other party will hesitate and feel guilty. I remember that at that time, Li Xiong and the three of them also took a Buddha statue, if it was related to the Buddha statue, why could they attack them?

I thought I had discovered the secret of the Buddha statue, but I didn't expect it to be rejected immediately, and Bai Zhengxi's slightly excited heart quickly cooled down. But the idea appeared, and I was even more curious about the Buddha statue, caressing the Buddha statue, I didn't dare to knock it, and deep down, I still thought that the Buddha statue was not a mortal thing. He kept repenting sincerely in front of the Buddha statue, hoping to wash away his sins, and most importantly, hoping to eliminate the disaster of blood and light.

Maybe the Buddha statue heard Bai Zhengxi's call, and there was a response, the sound of dong dong, the rhythm was gentle, and it sounded like a Buddha sound, which calmed people's hearts a lot. Bai Zhengxi became more religious, knelt directly in front of the Buddha statue, and vowed to worship the Buddha statue for a lifetime, and if there were children and grandchildren, they would also worship until the bloodline disappeared. I don't know if it's an illusion, after Bai Zhengxi swore an oath, the pain in his body disappeared, and he was indescribably comfortable, was he really blessed by the Buddha?

The knock on the door of "Knock, Knock ......" interrupted Bai Zhengxi's reverie, the crisp and gentle rhythm, just like the Buddha sound I heard just now, it turned out that it was not a Buddha sound at all, just a knock on the door. Bai Zhengxi's heart was soothed by the so-called Buddha, and he immediately brought it up again, who is the person who is coming now? Are you here to get him? Bai Zhengxi is the only one left in the house, even if relatives and friends come to visit the door, they will not come so early, they all know that he is very lazy, and he will only get up at three o'clock in the morning. It is very likely that the police are coming, Bai Zhengxi's first reaction is to escape, but there is only one exit from the main entrance in the courtyard of the house, and if he goes over the wall, he is afraid that it will be too late, so he is entangled for a while, and he still panics and doesn't know how to choose.

"Is anyone there, please?" Just when Bai Zhengxi was panicking, a voice came from outside the courtyard door, a very peaceful voice, listening to a sense of vicissitudes, the person who came should be older. If it was the police, they wouldn't have sent an older person, wouldn't they? Or was it sent by the police to trick the door open?

"If someone is destined to visit, please open the door at the host's house." The voice sounded again, it was still so peaceful, it made people unconsciously calm a lot, and Bai Zhengxi's restless heart was finally not so strong. The other party said that there is a fateful person, I don't know what it means, listening to a Zen machine, thinking of the Zen machine, I can't help but think of the Buddha statue, and my heart is tight, is the other party because of the Buddha statue, who else knows the existence of the Buddha statue? The matter of the Buddha statue has been bothering Bai Zhengxi, he wants to find out what is secret, so he got out of bed and walked towards the courtyard, wanting to see the situation first, and move forward cautiously, trying not to make a sound, so as not to be discovered.

The person at the door seemed to know that Bai Zhengxi had come out, stopped knocking, and stood there waiting. Bai Zhengxi saw clearly through the crack in the door, there was only one person, an old man about sixty years old, with a peaceful face, wearing a wide clothes that did not fit, and a very old hat. This person gave Bai Zhengxi a sense of closeness, and he was willing to believe in the other party, but because of the murder, he still didn't open the door, and asked cautiously: "Who are you looking for." ”

"Looking for you." The old man spoke very succinctly and did not say another word.

"Who are you? Do we know each other? Bai Zhengxi looked at the old man carefully, and he could be sure that this was the first time they met, and the other party came to him, what was it for?

"We don't know each other, it was the Buddha who guided me." As the old man spoke, he took off his hat, and he could see a bald head and a ring scar, which should be a monk.

As soon as Bai Zhengxi heard the word "Buddha", his heart couldn't stop trembling, the other party was the same as he thought just now, he really came for the Buddha statue, and the person who came was a monk, so he was more sure of the other party's identity. Without any further hesitation, he immediately opened the door and welcomed the old man in, and then locked the door again.

Without waiting for Bai Zhengxi to lead the way, the old man had already walked straight forward, as if he knew the way, and quickly entered Bai Zhengxi's room, then came to the side of the bed and lifted the quilt, straightened the Buddha statue lying horizontally, and then sat cross-legged beside the bed and recited a scripture. Bai Zhengxi was stunned as he watched from the sidelines, unable to imagine how the monk knew that the Buddha statue was in the quilt, could it really be that the Buddha guided him to what he said? If so, does it mean that the Buddha really exists? Bai Zhengxi suppressed the shock in his heart, and then knelt beside the monk, prostrate reverently. Listening to the scriptures that I didn't understand at all, it seemed to have a magical power, and my mind gradually relaxed, and the depression in my heart slowly dissipated.

After waiting for a while, the old man finally finished reciting the scriptures, let out a long sigh, his eyes fell on the Buddha statue, and his expression was extremely complicated. Bai Zhengxi looked at the old man's face from the side, and his heart was also mixed, so he didn't bother with words.

"Do you want to know the origin of the Buddha statue?" The old man's voice was a little lonely, and without waiting for Bai Zhengxi to answer, he said: "I am the only one who knows the origin of the Buddha statue, I thought that no one would know it anymore, but from tomorrow, only you will know the secret of the Buddha statue, I hope you can do it yourself." ”

didn't give Bai Zhengxi a chance to speak, the old man had already spoken eloquently, in fact, Bai Zhengxi hadn't come back to his senses, and he didn't know what the old man meant, so he was simply silent and listened to the old man continue.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the high monk Jiaye Moteng and Zhu Falan arrived in Luoyang with a white horse carrying Buddhist scriptures and Buddha statues, established the White Horse Temple, dug a secret room under the main hall of the White Horse Temple, stored four Buddha statues, as the treasure of the town temple, in order to seek the Buddha's light to shine on this strange and vast land as soon as possible. Two large and two small Buddha statues, two large Buddha statues, are the high monks Ka Ye Mo Teng, Zhu Flange cast in India, and enshrined for many years, contaminated with Buddha nature and countless worship of the power of faith, is a Buddhist treasure. And the two small Buddha statues, the origin is even more extraordinary, passed down by the master of the high monk Jiaye Moteng, generation after generation, I don't know how many years have passed. These two Buddha statues, which are rumored to have been cast not in the later period, but naturally formed, suddenly appeared in the world, were obtained by a small novice, and enshrined in their own residence, and the novice had to chant the Buddha to them every day, year after year, without a single day of interruption.

When the small Buddha statue appeared, it just looked like a human form, and as time went by, the image changed, becoming more and more majestic and solemn, and looking at that image, it was really the same as the Buddha, but it was different from any Buddha, and it was not the same as the Buddha that existed in the record. At this time, the little novice has become a generation of high monks, with a strong Buddha nature, and is admired by the world. It's just that no one knows about the existence of the little Buddha statue except him, because he feels the strange power of the Buddha statue, which can give people peace and avoid all disasters, and at the same time has an evil nature, which is easy to make people lose themselves and fall into madness. The monk is reluctant to tell others about the Buddha statue, and it is also because of this, because even he himself cannot resist the evil nature, and occasionally falls into madness, and the memory of the madness is remembered very clearly after waking up, and the killing heart left behind has not been dispelled.

The monk also thought about burying the Buddha statue, but the situation of turmoil, the threat of foreign religious forces, made him choose to stay by his side, but is it really just the reason for the turmoil? Didn't move the possession**? No matter what the reason, the existence of the Buddha statue does make the monk turn evil into good fortune, and every time the harm that comes, it will be resolved, until the day he passed away, he has never been hurt by the outside world. On the occasion of his death, the senior monk left the Buddha statue to his most trusted disciples, and repeatedly instructed that no record of the Buddha statue should be left behind, and no one other than the successor should see or know the existence of the Buddha statue. The monks have always believed that the Buddha statue is a heavenly existence, not belonging to the mortal world, once its existence spreads, it will attract endless competition, and the competition will bring endless disasters.

All this is not supported by obvious evidence, just a guess, but the greed of human nature, it is not difficult to guess. So the heirs of the monks, generation after generation in the inheritance of the Buddha statue at the same time, but also inherited the ancestral teachings, the secret of the Buddha statue was strictly protected, to the generation of the Buddha Morteng, due to the trip to China, the Buddha statue also brought to China, because it is a strange place, for the sake of insurance, built a secret room, specially used to store the Buddha statue, the place of the secret room is selected under the main hall, the Buddha statue can be worshiped by the believers, and at the same time protect the temple.
