Chapter 39: The Black Hand of the Sneak Attack (Three More Requests for Support)
I suddenly got goosebumps, the hairs on my body stood on end, and I secretly pinched my thighs hard, trying to see if I was still hallucinating.
The leg was very painful, but there was no change in the surroundings, and the little monk took Yuan Ling and me to the door of the guest room and arranged one room for each person.
The little monk is still young, and he doesn't understand the affairs of men and women, but he just says that it is the rule of the temple that men and women live separately, and if they don't follow the rules, they will be kicked out.
As a person who has come over, of course, I know that the temple is worried that someone can't help it and do that kind of thing to defile the pure land of Buddhism.
After the little monk left, I thought about it, but I still knocked on Yuan Ling's door, lowered my voice and said what I had just discovered, Yuan Ling couldn't help but smile dumbly: "Ji Zang, you really think too much." ”
"Don't you feel scared? How can it be called the Demon Temple? The Buddha statues offered are also like ghosts, which is too scary. ”
Yuan Ling laughed and trembled. I finally stopped and explained to me why. This Fumo Temple was originally an outlier in Buddhism, it does not belong to any of the ordinary Buddhist sects, ordinary people have heard of Zen Buddhism, Pure Land Buddhism, etc., will absorb believers. Spreading doctrine.
But this temple is different, it does not recruit believers, nor does it spread teachings, it is alone in this mountain, and some people go up the mountain to meet and are willing to send some incense. The temple will also accept it, but it will not deliberately publicize it.
The reason why there are such strange rules is because the legend is that a long time ago, there were often mountain ghosts in the mountains in this area to do evil, there were Buddhist monks who traveled to this place, in order to return the peace of the party, from the rich households in the nearby states and counties to collect money and grain, and built a Fumo Temple in this place, not to worship the Buddha, only to worship the Buddha Protector Vajra, to ensure the peace of this place.
The Dharma Protector Vajra originally belonged to the combatants, so it was normal for the idol to have a hideous face.
As for the allusion to the Demon Temple, Yuan Ling also heard her father tell it.
That is actually the "Fu" character of the Fu Demon Temple fell off, and became the Human Demon Temple, and the current abbot of the master of the destruction of the degree believes that if people do not cultivate good thoughts, do evil at will, there is no difference from the devil, and it can be regarded as a wake-up call to the world, so there is no repair to the plaque.
After listening to Yuan Ling's story, I breathed a long sigh of relief, and my hanging heart finally relaxed, I have experienced too many things recently, which made me suspicious and nervous.
Back to my guest room, I washed up and fell asleep, this night I slept very sweetly, I didn't even have a dream, I woke up and saw the red sunset outside the guest room window, I was a little embarrassed, I actually slept for a day at once, what is the difference with the lazy pig?
After I quickly washed, I came out of the guest room, walked around the temple, and did not see Yuan Ling, but saw the old monk of the extinction Du sitting in the main hall, with a jade Guanyin pendant in front of him, knocking on the wooden fish and chanting.
I walked into the main hall, did not disturb the old monk, looked up at the statue of the god enshrined in the main hall, sure enough, it was three sides and six arms, six hands holding different weapons, making a battle shape, the face was hideous, which made people afraid at first sight.
It's just that, unlike what I saw last night, although the expression of this idol is hideous, it is not as blue and fanged as last night, I pondered for a moment. Probably because I was in a state of unsteady last night and was dazzled by the wrong eye.
Just as I was observing everything in the main hall, the old monk stopped chanting, got up and saluted me: "Little donor, are you sleeping well?" ”
"It's good. Master, when is dinner? "I was really a little hungry, and I just came out to hang out because I was so hungry, but unfortunately I couldn't find where the kitchen was.
"Dinner?" The old monk was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Donor, you have slept for a day and a night, this is the next morning, and breakfast will be ready later." ”
I suddenly made a big red face, I thought that a day's sleep would be enough for a pig, who knew that I slept for a day and a night, it seems that I have been really exhausted recently, and I haven't been fully rested for a long time.
This Demon Temple does have a bit of a doorway, and since I was entangled by a female ghost, I have never slept so soundly.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, and I couldn't hold back a little on my face, so I began to forcibly change the topic: "Master, I saw that the plaque on the inside of the mountain gate is the Human Demon Temple, what is the allusion to this?" ”
"You must have heard this allusion to the female benefactor, right?" When the old monk said this, his expression was straight. In an extremely mysterious tone, he said: "Actually, there is a deeper reason behind this Human Demon Temple. ”
I was immediately interested: "What is it?" ”
"The main thing is that there is no money. It costs a lot of money to transport such a large plaque out to repair once, anyway, there is no one in the temple, and some pilgrims ask, so they tell them an allusion, and they also like it, killing two birds with one stone. Why not? After the old monk finished speaking, he didn't forget to squeeze his eyes at me, and his face was narrow.
No way......
I couldn't resist it, this is too disillusioned, isn't it? What about the profound meaning of the good? What about the image of a good master? After saying this, he still squeezed his eyes, is this a monk or an old naughty boy?
I was dumbfounded. Master Extinction laughed, stretched out his hand and patted me on the shoulder: "Young man, don't be so good-looking, the appearance is just a skin, everything still depends on the heart." ”
The old monk's words seemed to mean something, and I heard it in a fog. It feels like he's talking a bit like he's talking about the plaque of the Demon Temple, and it's a bit like talking about himself, and it's a bit like alluding to the female corpse.
Just as I was in a daze, I only heard a shout from outside the hall, and the old monk beckoned to me: "Let's go, let's eat." Your girlfriend's skills are good, much better than my stupid apprentice. ”
No way......
I said that I couldn't find where Yuan Ling went, it turned out that she went to be a chef, and then this old monk was really not polite at all, why didn't the monks have any reserve?
When I got to the dining room, I looked at the dishes on the table. I was stunned - there was actually meat! It's still a big plate of braised pork, and the cute little monk is staring at the braised pork and drooling, and it is estimated that if someone wasn't there, he would have put down his chopsticks a long time ago.
This...... It's not appropriate to eat meat in the holy place of Buddhism, right? Moreover, eat meat in front of monks. Isn't this pulling hatred? Will Yuan Ling and I be kicked out? I desperately glanced at Yuan Ling, but Yuan Ling didn't see it at all.
The next scene shocked me even more, the old monk quickly sat down at the dining table, picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing, and stretched out his thumb to Yuan Ling.
The little monk saw that the master moved his chopsticks. I quickly sandwiched a piece into my mouth, and the one that I chewed was called a cheerful.
What's going on? Could it be that after I slept and crossed, can all monks eat meat in this world?
The old monk saw my surprise and waved his hand at me: "Eat first, and then talk about it after eating, this kid is too good at eating." If I eat slowly, I won't be able to grab a few pieces of meat. ”
Saying that, the old monk really grabbed the braised pork like his little apprentice competition. I finished the meal like chewing wax, and I didn't eat a bite of the braised pork, but were eaten by an old man and a young monk.
When the old monk patted his stomach with satisfaction and burped, I couldn't help but point to the empty plate of braised pork: "Master, this ......"
"Our Fumo Temple only abstains from alcohol and sex, meat can be eaten, and people can also be scolded, so you don't have to be surprised."
"Huh?!"
"We are cultivating the Dharma Protector in front of the Buddha, how can we have the strength to fight without eating meat? Swearing during a fight is also a means of attack, why quit? ”
All right! The reason is too strong. I had no choice but to retreat.
For the next day, Yuan Ling and I stayed in the main hall with the old monk of Xuandu, listening to the old monk meditating and chanting the scriptures, and blessed the jade Guanyin pendant with mana.
If I had done it before, I would have been killed if I had been sitting for ten minutes, and I would have to pick up my phone and read a message. However, the scriptures recited by the old monk seemed to have a kind of magical power, and I was so enchanted that the day passed before I knew it.
It's just that the flower mark on my left arm is still the same, and there is no sign of abating, which also proves that the old monk is right. He really couldn't deal with the corpse demon, and he had to ask my biological parents for help in the end.
But when I got up from the futon at the end of the day, I felt as if all my strength had been drained, and I was so tired that I didn't even want to move my fingers. The mark on his left arm also began to sting.
The old monk checked my condition and speculated that it might be that the imprint of the female corpse was fused in my body, and after being washed by the Dharma, my body was de-energized, and I was fine with sleep.
I hastily ate dinner, went back to my room, lay down and fell asleep.
In a daze, I opened my eyes and found myself standing in a sea of flowers, surrounded by flowers on the other side that could not be seen, like a sea of fire.
I subconsciously wanted to escape, but when I turned around, there was an endless sea of flowers all around, and there was no way out, and a gust of wind blew, and the petals of those flowers on the other side were blown up, like butterflies flying in the sky, rushing towards me, wrapping me tightly in it.
I tried desperately to struggle. But no matter how I ran or threw it, the petals of those flowers on the other side were like maggots on the tarsal bones, surrounding my body, and I couldn't break them at all.
What's going on? Is it the Flower Mark of the Other Side? Or is my soul going to be devoured? What am I going to do?
Just when I was desperate, a cat meow suddenly came from the sea of flowers. A black cat rushed in front of me like black lightning, and the petals of the flowers on the other side immediately rained down like raindrops, and disappeared when they fell into the dark ground.
Then, the girl in the bronze mask came to me: "Ji Zang, I didn't tell you, don't be manipulated by the people around you, why don't you listen at all?" Hurry up and get out of where you are now and go find your birth parents! ”
At this moment, an arm holding a copper shovel suddenly stretched out in the void behind the girl and smashed it at the back of her head.
