Chapter 406: The Last Wish of the High Monk
Chinese As long as it is something with a bit of divinity, it is all ripped off. The crowd scurried around with red eyes, rummaging everywhere, and the whole bandit entered the village, taking away what could be taken away, and prying off what could not be taken was also taken away.
I have to say that the harvest here is very rich, and there are a lot of divine things, almost half of the people have obtained them.
Compared to them, we are already shabby. What surprised me the most was that I saw that one again
"Zhang Fei", he got another thing, a merit box; A large plaque on the left shoulder, and a merit box on the right shoulder.
We almost didn't laugh out loud when we saw it, and we dared to love this guy, who was specially picked up. The crowd rushed up more and more, and we were going up with it, but Huang Mao quickly stopped, and stopped us, pointing to a bamboo forest on the side.
There was a faint blue roof, intact, and if you didn't look closely, you really couldn't find it.
Our eyes lit up, all the buildings here are ruins, collapsed, and we don't know if it was a natural collapse or man-made destruction, a mess, intact roof, or the first time we saw it.
There is no doubt that it is very secret, otherwise it would have been looted long ago.
"Quick, get there." Huang Mao hurriedly said. We nodded, immediately out of sight of the crowd, turned a corner, and made a quick heading towards the place.
When we walked to the door, we were shocked. There was a person inside, a monk, sitting with his back to us with his hands folded, and on top was a stone Buddha, wearing a robe, and his back was straight as a pine.
"Damn, how can there be anyone?" Cao Nan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his face changed greatly. I'm also surprised, okay, how did a monk pop up?
Could it be that there are still people in this temple? But the question is, how can there be a living person here?
"Don't worry." Hu Lai raised his hand, observed it carefully, and said
"There is ash on the ground, and this man is probably dead." I took a closer look and found that there was indeed another layer of ash inside, but strangely, the monk's surroundings were spotless and clean.
"Death?" Cao Nan muttered, and then was startled, and said
"It's not a skeleton, it won't be another corpse, right?" I was also terrified when I said this, the previous corpse demon was too powerful, and it put a lot of pressure on us.
It would be too scary to have another corpse demon that eats the heart here.
"This ......" Hu Lai and Huang Mao were also shocked, the senior monk turned his back to us, and his body looked very thin, maybe he really turned into a corpse demon.
Anyway, in a place like the Falling Demon Abyss, it's not a good thing to meet a corpse.
"Why don't you throw it at the rock?" Cao Nan proposed. Huang Mao and Hu Lai glanced at each other and nodded.
So Cao Nan picked up a small stone and gently threw it at the monk's back, but at this time something strange happened, the stone hit the monk, but after it landed, it rolled outside, knowing that it was a foot away before stopping.
"What is this?" Huang Mao's eyes widened and he said
"Dust?"
"No, it's not a corpse." Hu Lai also found out, said very resolutely, and then took the lead to walk inside.
This is a Buddhist hall, not too big, but very exquisite, it looks like a monk's dojo, because it is located in the middle of nowhere, far from the place where incense is at its peak, and the environment is quiet.
Soon, Hu Lai took us to the front of the monk, and at a glance, it was really not a corpse demon, this was a monk who had attained the Tao, even though he had passed away for countless years, but his golden body was immortal and still lifelike.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, folded his hands, and in the last moments of his life, he still served the Buddha religiously.
"This is the strong man of ancient times?" Cao Nan asked. Huang Mao nodded, pointed to the dust on the ground, and said
"It has been extraordinary, has entered the realm of avoiding dust, is dust-free, does not cause dust, and the aura around it can keep the dust away from him, even if it has been dead for so many years, if he is still alive, this Buddha hall will not be stained with dust." I admired that a master who had passed away was right in front of him, passing away quietly in front of the Buddha, with no joy or sorrow on his face.
The monk's face is charitable, he looks like he is about sixty or seventy, and he is a little thin.
"Wait...... Wrong! Suddenly, Hu Lai seemed to have discovered something, and couldn't help but exclaim.
"What's the situation?"
"Don't scare me!"
"Holy!" We were already a little nervous, but we were taken aback and hurriedly asked what was going on. Hu Lai pointed to the monk's robe
"Look at the edge pattern of the robe, it is a hollow pattern." I took a closer look and found that the edge of the robe was rusted with a row of hollow lines, which is a typical pattern of Dongtu characteristics.
Suddenly, my head flashed, and I understood why Hu Lai exclaimed. The hollow character pattern is a kind of decorative pattern that began after the end of the Qin and Han dynasties, but this temple is obviously before the Qin and Han dynasties, and it is not a mythological era.
The time is not right! In other words, it is possible that this high monk is not from the temple, but he came here later.
"I'll go, what's the situation?" Cao Nan also reacted.
"This senior monk is not from the temple, he is a latecomer like us, I don't know why he passed away here." Huang Mao said, his face was also very surprised.
"But the question is, there were really powerful cultivators in the Qin and Han dynasties?" Hu Lai was shocked. I said too
"That's right, avoid dust, the whole body is dust-free, the golden body is not bad, legend has it that this is the sign of immortals."
"It's a little weird, perhaps...... What is the chance? Huang Mao's tone was uncertain.
"What is he here for, pilgrimage, seclusion?" I muttered that under the famous Falling Demon Abyss, there was a high monk, and he died here.
Then I looked at him and saw that he had nothing but a robe and clothes, and I don't know if he didn't have one in the first place, or if he had been looted.
"Shhh...... There seemed to be something underneath his futon. At this time, Cao Nan made a discovery, pointed to the futon under the monk's seat and said.
I hurriedly looked away, and found that it was really, only the flat piece was bulging, and there seemed to be something underneath.
"Look!" Huang Mao Road. I nodded, folded my hands, said the Buddha name twice, and then cautiously stepped forward and turned the futon up.
Underneath it turned out to be a jade plaque and a leather scroll. I picked it up and withdrew, and looked at it carefully, the jade plate looked ordinary, not big, about two fingers wide, one inch long, milky white, like mutton fat ball jade, the hanging ears on it carved a Buddha, the lines look very simple, but very expressive.
The leather scroll looks more upscale, and I don't know what kind of animal it is, it hasn't rotted for so long, the texture is soft, the hair is fine, and it's like grabbing two fox furs in your hand.
I gave the white jade to Huang Mao, unfolded the leather scroll, and found that it was actually a letter, and the font was somewhat ancient, obviously the seal script of the Qin and Han dynasties, like the oracle bone inscription, I could only understand a small part of it.
I gave the parchment to Hu Lai, and in terms of the study of fonts, few can surpass his. Hu Lai unfolded, looked at it, and said
"This is a suicide note, written by the monk before his death, he asked us to bring the jade plaque back to the Buddha, saying that the contents are very important to the Buddha, and after completing its last wish, he will give it to the secret method, on this suicide note."
"Secret method?"
"I'll go!"
"This should be good stuff!" The eyes of the three of us lit up, the secret method given by the high monk is definitely not ordinary, not to mention anything else, just say that his dust avoidance realm is enough to make people's hearts move.
But after the heart moved, we calmed down again, we have never heard of the Buddha sect he said, the Qin and Han dynasties are too far away from today, maybe the Buddha sect no longer exists.
He probably didn't expect that when someone came here again, it would be thousands of years later.
"I really haven't heard of Buddhism." Huang Mao groaned for a moment and said
"I haven't heard of Buddhism, but I think he shouldn't be talking about a sect, but about the authentic Buddhism, right?"
"If that's the case, then it's easy to do, Buddhism has been inherited endlessly, and there are only a handful of people who can be famous in Dongtu today." Hu Laidao.
And Cao Nan is more concerned
He ...... You won't lie to us, will you, there will be a secret method on this scroll? ”
"Don't worry." Hu Lai smiled and said
"The people of Buddhism do not talk about it, especially such a high-ranking monk, and they regard it as a creed, and he will not break his promise. There should be a secret method set on the scroll, and the secret method will only be revealed if we help him fulfill his last wish. I nodded, he has such a high strength, and he is about to die, giving a little secret method is nothing at all, there is no need to be reluctant.
"Alas......" Hu Lai sighed and said
"The things in this piece of white jade must be very important, he didn't even leave his name, but he was thinking about returning this thing to Buddhism."
"In that case, promise him, he's been dead for so long, it's time to sit down." Huang Mao nodded, then folded his hands and chanted
"Amitabha", Tao
"Senior, I don't know your name, since we are destined to crash into here, we will do our best to fulfill your last wish, and I also ask you to bless us to leave this dangerous abyss safely, you rest in peace." The words fell, and a magical scene appeared.
"Amitabha, good, good!" I saw a phantom figure slowly floating up from the monk's body, chanting a Buddha name, and then slowly feathering into a point of light, quickly dissipating.
At the same time, the golden body of the monk also began to turn into ashes, drifting towards the outside of the Buddhist hall, falling into the bamboo forest, and turning into a handful of dirt in the forest.
"What's going on?" Cao Nan said in surprise.
"He is immortal because he has an unfinished obsession, and he has been waiting for someone to find this letter and promise him to fulfill his last wish." Hu Lai explained, and said
"When someone takes over the will, his obsession will dissipate, and his golden body will be feathered, and this will be considered a complete death."
"Such an obsession is not ordinarily deep." Huang Mao also said
"First, he is indeed very powerful, and his mental power can be called magnificent, and secondly, it must be that the things in the white jade are very important, and his last wish has not been fulfilled, and it is always difficult for him to truly get rid of it." I was shocked in my heart, I never thought that a wisp of obsession after a person's death could be so strong, how powerful should he be when he was alive?
I'm afraid that the power is not enough to describe, right? It's a pity that even if such a person dies, he doesn't write his name on the suicide note, and everything goes with the wind.
This is the real high monk, and his reputation is like a floating cloud, and everything is empty. Hu Lai took the sheepskin scroll from Hu Lai's hand, rolled them together, and was about to put them away.
But at this moment, a cold drink came from outside
"Call things out or you'll die!" We were startled and hurriedly looked back, only to see a bunch of people at the door, led by one in a suit and leather shoes, and behind us there were six or seven people in black suits.
It was the enemy Xiao Balong and Tie Shan, they actually came here, and they happened to see us collecting white jade and scrolls, knowing that it was a treasure, and they had the heart to snatch it.
When the little dragon saw us, he was also stunned, and then bit the root of his teeth and said
"I didn't expect it to be you, that's just right, new hatred and old hatred, I reported it together today, saying, how do you want to die?" …… Cat flutter Chinese
