Chapter 191: Ancient Temple

My mind buzzed, and my body took a few steps back uncontrollably, looking at the bulging eyes of the monk's corpse, there was only one thought in my mind: corpse transformation!

The faces of the red carp and Huang Ci also changed, and the three of them held their breath and stared vigilantly at the monk's corpse for a long time, then they heard Huang Ci mutter: "What's the matter, the ancient Buddha will also cheat the corpse?" ”

But before he could finish speaking, he saw that the monk corpse slowly sat up from the ground, his neck made a strange "clucking" sound, his head twisted mechanically, as if sweeping through everyone, and a strange smile pulled out of the corner of his mouth.

And the arm that stretched out his index finger and pointed to the sky also fell straight on me by coincidence with the change of posture.

The death-like silence in the entire ancient wooden coffin, the three of them were directly stunned, my face turned pale by the monk's corpse, and I was sweating at that time, swallowed saliva, and said, "What, what do you mean?" ”

Huang Ci was also frightened, stared at the monk's corpse, then looked at me, and muttered, "Brother Bai, this ancient Buddha won't know you, right?" ”

When I heard this, I immediately shook my head like a rattle, and hurriedly took a step to the side, trying to avoid the fingers of the monk.

But the moment I moved my steps, the monk corpse seemed to identify me, and the direction of his fingers followed me, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "Zhenhe thousand years, you are finally back again." ”

After the monk corpse finished speaking, he actually stood up slowly, folded his hands, and bent his body slightly: "Donor, don't come unharmed." ”

The scene in front of them made the three of them completely stunned, and Huang Ci, who had been ferrying in the Guimen Gorge for a hundred years, also opened his mouth wide, his eyes protruding more than the monk's corpse, and he smashed his mouth, unable to speak.

After half a sound, I gradually recovered some emotions, looked at the monk's corpse, and said incredulously: "You know me?" ”

The monk shook his head and said, "I don't recognize it." ”

I almost screamed, surprised, "Then why did you say you were waiting for me?" ”

The monk corpse lowered his head and said: "I am you, you are me, reincarnation for thousands of years, the true self and the false self have returned to the original source, leaving only a skin illusion, how can I recognize who you are?" ”

I was stunned, and I didn't understand the meaning of his words for a moment, but at this time, I heard the red carp murmuring: "You are Xiao Yi in the previous life?" ”

My body shook violently, and I looked at the red carp incredulously, and then I saw the monk corpse sigh and said: "Don't mention it again in the previous life, now I am just a pair of skins, for the donor Zhenhe to justify the grievances, and fulfill the promise at that time." ”

"What promise?" I took a deep breath and said.

"A promise to a woman."

The corpse suddenly looked at me, and his withered fingers touched the center of my eyebrows, only to feel that the picture in front of me suddenly became blurry, his head was groggy, and his eyes were black, and he fell to the ground.

Early in the morning into the ancient temple, the first sun shines on the high forest.

"Stinky monk, you are too ruthless, you actually let this girl wait at the door for so long, the countryside is foggy and cold, and you are not afraid of freezing this girl's body."

A coquettish anger broke the tranquility of the ancient temple in the early morning, and the young girl in red pushed open the courtyard door of the temple with a face full of anger, regardless of the obstruction of a group of little monks and nuns, and came to the door of the Buddhist hall angrily along the bluestone brick road, crossed her waist and said: "Stinky monk, you come out for me, and if you don't come out, be careful that this girl demolishes your broken temple!" ”

The monks and nuns seemed to be very afraid of the identity of the girl in red, and stood timidly with a broom, not daring to make a sound, until an old man in a red robe appeared, and said to the girl, "Female benefactor, you are here again." ”

The girl glared at the monk and said, "Buddha to all beings, don't you welcome me in this temple?" ”

The old monk shook his head and sighed: "The Buddha crosses all sentient beings, but there is a certain number of everything, and you can't force it." ”

"Hmph, nonsense." The girl raised her eyebrows and said, "The Buddha also said that everything in this life is cause and effect in previous lives, and if there is cause and effect, then what kind of cause and effect is it?" ”

The old monk was speechless for a while, and when he opened his mouth, he saw the girl in red snorting coldly and said, "If you dare to say more, I will make your temple disappear tonight!" ”

Ignoring him, he raised his leg and kicked open the wooden door of the Buddhist hall, and walked in with his skirt.

Pushing open the front door of the Buddhist hall, the centuries-old wooden planks "creaked" open, and a few rays of sunlight through the gaps in the trees shone into the quiet Buddhist hall, and the incense burner placed on the tribute table shone brightly.

The ancestors in the Buddha hall pinched the flowers and smiled, the incense lamp was dim, and the silent burning, without the slightest throbbing because the Buddha door was opened; On top of the futon sat a little monk, about the same age as a girl, who was chanting with his eyes closed, and the wooden fish in his hand was striking out the same syllables one by one, and the sandalwood rose up, covering the Buddha's unsmiling face.

People, Buddha, and the hall are integrated, so that this dusty idiot seems to have gone through the years of the Buddha hall in an instant, and the turbulent heart begins to learn to be calm.

After the girl entered the door, she saw that the little monk snorted first, and came to the side with the skirt of the money, and threw the wooden fish that snatched the little monk's hand aside, and said: "Nian Nian, every day, don't bother." ”

Then he raised his eyes and looked at the statue of Shakyamuni, pouted and said, "What is there to treat in this broken place, is he better looking than me?" ”

Regarding the girl's actions and words, the little monk only shook his head and did not speak.

"Hey, chanting is stupid, can't you hear this girl!"

When the girl saw the little monk like this, the anger on her face was even stronger, and she stood in front of the little monk with her waist pinched, as if to block his gaze at the Buddha, and pouted and said, "Tomorrow my father will take me to Huainan Road, aren't you reluctant to let me go?" ”

The little monk sighed and said: "Donor, people live in the world, they are rootless duckweed, they are scattered, gather less and leave more, why worry, and the poor monk escaped into the empty door as soon as possible, cutting off three thousand troubles, not to mention reluctantly saying it?" ”

The girl bit her lip, a trace of purity flashed in her eyes, and said: "If you like to chant scriptures, then why don't you go to Huainan Road with me, I will ask my father to donate a temple ten times and a hundred times bigger than this, so that you can be the presiding abbot, so that I can see you again." ”

The little monk raised his head slightly, looked at the girl's eyes, his eyes were like a pool of clear water, without the slightest wave, and said lightly: "If I serve the Buddha, I only need a wooden fish and a string of prayer beads, and I can walk all over the mountains and rivers and travel through the world, why do I need a small eaves?" ”

"Then why don't you come with me!" The girl glared angrily.

The little monk shook his head, hung his head, and said no more.

"Well, you'll regret it sooner or later!"

The girl stomped her foot in anger and turned to leave the Buddhist hall.

Watching the girl hide her face and cry while shuttling between the mountains and forests, I felt a trace of pain in my heart, and at this time, the whole picture was like a water point on the surface of a lake, rippling in a circle, and then the picture completely changed.

It's still the Buddha Hall, it's still the two people, but the appearance has grown from the years of jasper to the year of Huaxin, one is wearing a red robe like a Buddha's face, and the other, wearing a phoenix crown and a veil, the face and arms exposed outside the clothes are full of scars.

This time the two did not speak, the woman sat on the futon on the side of the monk, her face was tired, the wound on one arm was still trickling out, but she looked at the monk stupidly, her eyes full of love.

The monk is like an old monk who closes his eyes, as if this woman, in this secluded mountain, the stars and the moon are in the sky, all the troubles are just passing clouds, and this forgetfulness is only the comprehension of Zen.

In the middle of the sound, the woman sighed softly, turned her head and glanced out of the door, only to see sparks flickering in the silent mountain forest, and there were noisy voices from time to time, as if a large number of people and horses were approaching in the direction of the ancient temple.

"They're coming."

The woman said lightly, raised her head to look at the monk, and smiled, "You will save me, will you?" ”

The monk shook his head slightly, slowly opened his eyes to look at the woman, and sighed, "Wei, Mrs. Li." ”

The woman's body trembled, bit her lip and said, "I ran away from marriage, it's not Mrs. Li, it's still Wei Junyao." ”

Then I saw Wei Junyao suddenly smile and said, "How do you know that I was promised to General Li, you have actually been caring about me all along, right?" ”()
