As soon as I got out of the car, I saw that there were many vendors gathered at the foot of the mountain, because there were many people who came to Sanxue Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha on weekends, so many people risked their lives to be suppressed by the city management, and started the idea of doing business here.

I looked at my watch and it was already 12:32. I went out at 8 o'clock, and it was a little more than 9 o'clock when I arrived in Xiashui Village, and I actually stayed in that house for more than two hours. I touched my stomach, theoretically I should be very hungry, but today I am not hungry at all, and I feel a little full.

"I'll rub it, did I really eat that female ghost, no, no, no, I have to be a normal person." But when I remembered that when I gnawed on the female ghost's arm, not only did I not feel disgusted, but my mouth began to secrete saliva. Zhang Chen shook his head, walked to a vendor's stall, ordered a bowl of pork rib noodles, and sat down at the table set up on the side.

"If I look at my current situation, I might be able to fix the bathroom at home, but ......," Zhang Chen thought as he tapped the table with chopsticks.

Thinking back to the state I entered a second before I was about to be killed by a female ghost, I still couldn't figure it out, it felt like a person who had walked in the desert for three days and three nights without food or water saw an oasis, and there was a large table of delicious food next to the oasis. It's all about acting on the subconscious. Zhang Chen himself is not sure, if he meets the baby in his bathroom, he will still be able to enter this state, if not, then there may be only a dead end.

"That monk seems to know that I have such abilities, and he must go up and ask after eating." Zhang Chen didn't think much about it, took apart the disposable chopsticks and began to eat.

After a bowl of noodles, my stomach became very supportive, and after settling the bill, I walked to the top of the mountain. At this time, Zhang Chen felt that his legs were strong, if it weren't for the fact that there were many people going up the mountain, he would definitely be able to go up the mountain at a very fast speed. When walking halfway up the mountain, Zhang Chen looked up and saw a familiar person coming down from the mountain, not Erwa or Tan Fei, but Wang Banhua.

"Could it be that this is the legendary chance encounter" Zhang Chen was startled, and quickly stopped, his heart beating fast. Do you want to say hello? Forget it, maybe she won't be able to see me, but it's too ...... if my classmates don't say hello" Just when Zhang Chen was hesitating, a voice came.

The voice of "Zhang Chen" is sweet and soft, which is Wang Banhua's voice.

"The king... Wang Yizhi: "Zhang Chen looked up and found that Wang Banhua had already walked in front of him.

"Why did you come to Sanxue Temple, alone?" Wang Yizhi asked.

"Well, my father is not in good health, I came to Sanxue Temple alone to burn incense for him and ask for a peace charm or something" Zhang Chen replied nervously.

"I didn't expect you to be quite good, I accompanied my parents to burn incense on the weekend, and I also asked for peace," Wang Yizhi said in surprise.

"Uncle and aunt, bah bah ~ uncle and aunt are so ............" Zhang Chen's slip of the tongue made Wang Yizhi's family laugh.

"Okay, let's go down the mountain, you can go burn incense" Wang Yizhi waved her hand and said goodbye to Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen waved his hand mechanically, stood in place for half a moment before realizing that something was wrong, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the mountain. As he walked, he thought, "Hey, if only I could call my uncle and aunt one day."

Not long after walking like this, Zhang Chen saw the gate of the temple, and immediately emptied the daydream in his head. At this time, two young monks stood at the door. Seeing Zhang Chen coming, he clasped his hands together and said, "Little donor, if you come to burn incense, please enter the door and turn right to buy Buddha incense in the Buddha incense shop, and then go to other halls."

Zhang Chen replied with a smile and respectfully: "I'm here to find someone, I don't know if the little master can take me to find a Dharma name called Puhu."

The little monk thought for a while and said, "Little donor, there doesn't seem to be anyone with this name in this temple, is it wrong for the little donor?"

"I came to the temple at five o'clock yesterday afternoon, and I was introduced to the temple by Puhu's master, and I won't be mistaken."

After speaking, the two monks laughed and said, "The little donor is afraid that he has entered the wrong temple, our Sanxue Temple will close at five o'clock in the afternoon every day, and it is me and Senior Brother Puping who close the door. And my junior brother has never heard of a person named Puhu since he entered the monastery for a year."

Just as Zhang Chen frowned, a voice came from the temple

"Puping, Pugong, please come in."

Zhang Chen followed the sound and saw a white-bearded monk in a robe standing at the door, his eyes constantly looking at him.

"Yes, Abbot" The two young monks were a little surprised, and immediately let Zhang Chen enter the gate.

"Abbot?" Zhang Chen walked in suspiciously, and when he came to the old man, he felt a very comfortable breath, which was somewhat similar to his entry into the Daxiong Treasure Hall yesterday, and the whole person calmed down.

"The little donor knows Senior Brother Puhu?" The abbot said with a smile.

"I met just yesterday afternoon, and Master Puhu also gave me a piece of talisman paper and a bag." Zhang Chen replied.

"The little donor will go to a place with the old man, and then tell you about the matter of Puhu's junior brother."

Zhang Chen followed the abbot all the way, walked through a number of large and small halls, there were many monks and foreign seekers, not at all like the quiet feeling when he came yesterday. However, Zhang Chen thought that the abbot would take him to a small hall, but he didn't expect the two to walk together to a small back door of Sanxue Temple.

"Master Abbot, what is this?" Zhang Chen walked out the back door, and in front of him was a bamboo forest.

This bamboo forest can't see anything else except bamboo, Zhang Chen followed the abbot and walked in it for nearly 5 minutes, and he couldn't touch his current position at all. Just when Zhang Chen was stunned, a voice came.

[,！ "It's here."

After Zhang Chen passed through the tightly packed bamboos around him, he came to the edge of a mountain cliff, which was visible to the naked eye, and there were many graves on this cliff, and there were at least twenty of them at a glance.

"Master Abbot, this is ......" Zhang Chen asked.

"This is the last place where Senior Brother Puhu stayed in my temple." Abbot Road.

"Is Master Puhu dead?"

"I don't know, since you have a relationship with Senior Brother Puhu, then I'll tell you about it. As early as 50 years ago, when I was twenty-one years old, I had been in the temple for two years. Puhu is an orphan, only 10 years old at the time, begging on the street without a father and mother, New China has just been established, although everyone's life has improved, but it is not much better. The uncle in the temple saw that the child was kind and brought back to the temple." The abbot was intoxicated with the memories.

"Senior Brother Puhu just came in at that time, and he was very good to everyone, although his health was not good, he picked up the heaviest things to do. Everyone admires him for decades, and it can be said that everyone expects him. If that hadn't happened, I'm afraid that Senior Brother Puhu would still be presiding over these three temples now." The abbot couldn't help but sigh when he said this.

"I remember that day until 10 years ago. On that day, Senior Brother Puhu didn't know where to get the news about his parents, so he explained the situation to the abbot early and went down the mountain alone. This was four days and four nights, and in the evening of four days later, Senior Brother Puhu returned to the temple, and his body was a little weak. With the help of his brothers, he used medicine, and when everyone asked him about his parents, he always kept silent. However, no one noticed his anomaly and went back to their rooms to sleep." The abbot said this, holding his hands to death, and he was a little excited.

"At night, a frightened cry sounded in Senior Brother Puhu's room, and I and the other senior brothers, including the abbot, were awakened and quickly rushed to the room where Senior Brother Puhu was with a torch. When I opened the door, I saw that there was blood splattered inside, and the ground was full of minced meat, and the twenty-four senior brothers who lived with Puhu's junior brother were all in different places. And there was a sound of tearing in a corner of the room, and under the light of the torch, we saw that under the corner of the wall, Puhu was squatting there, gnawing on the stump of a senior brother, but when he turned around, Puhu's eyes were not human at all, but a beast. At this time, the junior brother seemed to be very afraid of the fire, so he actually fell to the ground on all fours and jumped out of the window next to him like a tiger. There were nearly 100 people up and down the temple, and they formed a team to search in the temple and in the mountains all night, but they didn't find Puhu's junior disciple."

Until the early morning of the second day, when everyone thought that Puhu had escaped from the mountain, and everyone returned to the room where the accident occurred, there was a person sitting in the middle of the room, none other than Puhu. Everyone was angry and scared, and they didn't dare to move forward. And just when everyone hesitated, the abbot, who was over 70 years old, walked up to Senior Brother Puhu and saw that the tears from his eyes had soaked the monk's robe on his body. His hands were clenched, his nails were still deep in his palms, and blood was still dripping. I kept whispering three words, 'I'm sorry.'"

"At that time, the abbot could be said to be the person who knew Puhu best, and everyone knew the personality of the junior brother. I'm afraid that the junior brother has fallen into the devil, and the temple can't think of a way. A few days later, he was still kneeling there alone, not thinking about tea and dinner. However, the 24 brothers who left were buried on this cliff by the abbot." As he spoke, the abbot pointed to the graves.

"Considering the future of Sanxue Temple, and the dedication of the junior and younger brothers for the Sanxue Temple for decades. The abbot decided to expel him from the temple and drive him down the mountain. The crowd also silently accepted this method. And just after the decision was made, I took the four junior disciples to the room of the junior brother Puhu, but he had disappeared, and at this time, a junior brother who was in charge of managing the bamboo forest ran to the temple and said loudly Puhu He was on this cliff and might have committed suicide by jumping off the cliff."

"When we arrived, the cliff was already full of brothers and abbots from the temple. Puhu, who had not eaten for a few days, knelt on the edge of the cliff and said to all of us, 'It's all his own fault, I'm sorry for my brother, I'm sorry for the abbot who raised him.' After the abbot finished speaking, an old tear flowed down his cheek, and the emotion gradually subsided.

"Abbot, have you found Master Puhu's body?" Zhang Chen asked immediately after listening.

At that time, the abbot sent several disciples to search the mountain, but found nothing. Everyone thought that the junior brother had fallen into this Jinxi River." The abbot said.

Zhang Chen was silent for a long time, and then told the abbot what happened yesterday afternoon, and also explained the situation in his own family. After hearing this, the abbot smiled slightly, as if thinking about something, and did not speak. Then he turned around and walked towards the temple, and Zhang Chen had no choice but to follow.

The two walked all the way to the gate of Sanxue Temple without saying a word, and the abbot said a word to Zhang Chen: "Senior Brother Puhu often tells a story to some new disciples in the temple, he said that there is a forest where a family of hunters live, the old hunter has two sons, since he was a child, he loves the eldest son in every way, no matter what he does, he helps him, and the same is true when hunting, he is afraid that his son will be injured a little, and one day, the father and son met a tiger in the forest, and the eldest son was so frightened that he didn't know what to do. And the old hunter had no choice but to watch his eldest son die in the tiger's mouth, and when he returned home, he looked at his youngest son, who had just turned six, and wept bitterly. From then on, the youngest son was allowed to go out alone, without guidance or warning. Eight years later, the youngest son, the youngest was hung with flesh and skin, the eldest was broken hands and feet, and a few months passed, and when the sun was about to set that afternoon, the youngest son dragged the tiger that was about to kill his brother back home."

Zhang Chen naturally heard what the abbot meant, bowed deeply and then went down the mountain

[,！ ]

"If I hadn't honed it, if I encountered more powerful ghosts in the future, then I wouldn't be dead. I'm going to work hard, grow up, and protect the people around me." Zhang Chen clenched his fists and secretly made up his mind.
