Chapter 40: The Truth
Bi Laolei, who was wearing an invisible hat, followed Zhong Kui out of the room, and as soon as he went out, he was greeted by a chaotic scene. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoA large group of ghosts in black cloaks are holding soul chains, stopping the ghosts from going berserk, and those ghosts are rushing forward one by one.
"Is the scene under control?" Zhong Kui called a ghost who was maintaining the scene and asked about the current situation.
"It's under control," the onicha replied very respectfully.
"Well, okay, restore normal order as soon as possible, don't miss the opportunity for them to reincarnate"
"Yes!" With that, the onicha turned and returned to his place.
"By the way, when did that monk named Fa Ming die?" Zhong Kui suddenly turned around and asked Bi Laolei next to him.
Bi Laolei thought for a while and replied, "It was probably seven or eight days ago."
"What! If that's the case, he might have been reincarnated," Zhong Kui suddenly exclaimed.
Listening to Zhong Kui's words, Bi Laolei also trembled in his heart, could it be that he finally had hope and turned into a bubble so quickly.
"Or maybe ....." Zhong Kui turned to look at the chaotic scene and said, "Maybe he is among these ghosts."
This sentence gave Bi Laolei a glimmer of hope like nectar, no matter whether Fa Ming was among these ghosts or not, Bi Laolei was going to look for it, and he would not let go of any opportunity.
Before Zhong Kui could react, Bi Laolei took the lead and ran over, and Zhong Kui, who had reacted, also hurriedly chased after him.
There are a lot of ghosts crowded here, all of them are about to be reincarnated, although there are still some dishonest ghosts waiting for the opportunity to sneak away, but with the best efforts of those ghosts, the current order has been restored.
Bi Laolei shuttled back and forth among these ghosts, looking for Fa Ming's traces, and Zhong Kui was inconvenient to go back and forth to find people because of his identity, so he stayed outside to help the ghosts deal with those restless ghosts.
Although there are many ghosts waiting to be reincarnated here, it is relatively simple to find a monk, so Bi Laolei only looked at those bareheaded ghosts, but there are many bald heads, but none of them are monks, which makes Bi Laolei look very anxious, he is very afraid that there is no trace of Fa Ming here, if Fa Ming has really been reincarnated, then the truth of that day is really a mystery for the ages.
Just when Bi Laolei was anxious, he suddenly saw an old monk sitting cross-legged and meditating behind the gathering place of ghosts, because just now Bi Laolei focused all his attention on finding people in crowded places, so he ignored other places.
Seeing hope, Bi Laolei naturally couldn't let go easily, so he hurriedly ran to the old monk's side and asked, "May I ask if you are the abbot of Jinshan Temple?" ā
The old monk, who was meditating quietly, suddenly heard someone talking to him, and immediately opened his eyes, but strangely there was no one around him.
Just when this old monk was still wondering, Bi Laolei said again: "I am next to you, there is no way to show up for some reasons, you answer me first, are you the abbot of Faming?" ā
"That's right, Lao Qu is the abbot of Jinshan Temple."
"Great, I finally found you, I want to ask you a question about Xuanzang" Bi Laolei said excitedly.
"Xuanzang! Are you with him? ā
"Yes, I went back to Jinshan Temple with him last time."
"Oh, I see," Fa Ming seemed to understand Bi Laolei's intention to find himself, so he continued: "Did you come to find Lao Qu to ask me what I said to Xuanzang? ā
"Yes, that's it, I want to know the truth of that day" Bi Laolei firmly stated his intentions.
"In that case, Lao Gao will tell you everything about Xuanzang, but Lao Gao hopes that you will promise me one thing after listening to it."
"What's the matter?"
"Help Xuanzang not to let him lose his heart"
"Huh?" Bi Laolei was confused when he heard it, what was his intention?
Seeing Bi Laolei's puzzled look, Fa Ming told him not to rush to ask anything first, and when he finished talking about all this, he would naturally understand.
Long before Bi Laolei and Xuanzang returned to Jinshan Temple, in fact, Abbot Faming was not critically ill. One afternoon, Fa Ming came to the Jinchuan River to meditate and practice as usual. But something happened that Fa Ming had never seen in his life, and a golden light appeared in front of him, and the Buddha he worshiped every day appeared in front of him. Fa Ming fell to his knees in surprise and kowtowed a few times to Rulai reverently.
"Get up," Rulai said to Fa Ming.
"I don't know where the Buddha came," Fa Ming slowly stood up and said.
"I'm here to tell you about the golden cicada"
"Golden cicada?"
"Do you still know your apprentice Xuanzang?"
"Yes, of course the old man does."
"He is my second disciple Jin Chanzi"
"Ahh Fa Ming was taken aback, but he didn't expect his disciple to be the second disciple of Rulai.
"When Jin Chanzi went astray, I sent him to the world to reincarnate, hoping that he could realize his mistake and turn back in time. In his previous lives, he was deeply educated in the monastery, and finally passed away, and now he is his last life, he has become a famous monk, as long as he can go to the Leiyin Temple in the West to obtain the Dharma scriptures, he can return to the West Heaven and become a golden cicada again."
"What does the Buddha mean?"
"You are teaching Xuanzang the principles of Buddhism in this life, and now you are doing a very good job in this regard, so you just need to guide Xuanzang to leave this place in the end, go to the west to learn scriptures, and inherit my Buddhism."
"Could it be that Xuanzang's life direction has been arranged by you?"
"Yes, in order to allow Jin Chanzi to concentrate on inheriting my Dharma path, I manipulated his reincarnation, and everything he encountered was predestined, and it seemed to be very successful from previous lives."
"And I am destined to become Xuanzang's master, is it also destined?"
"In every life of Xuanzang, someone needs to teach him, and you are his master in this last life, your life is destined early, so you should complete this last thing well."
"Don't you care what Xuanzang thinks, he could have lived the life of an ordinary person like an ordinary person, but because of the golden cicada, he changed the trajectory of his life, and changed his life so casually, is it the principle of Buddhism?"
"Anyway, all this is fate, when the memory of the golden cicada wakes up, Xuanzang will become the golden cicada, all this is destined, you can't change it, do what you should do in the end" After speaking, Rulai disappeared in front of Fa Ming, and from this day on, Fa Ming suddenly became seriously ill and has been lying in bed, and Xuanzang, who was far away in Chang'an City, heard that the master was seriously ill and insisted on rushing back, and then there was a dialogue between Fa Ming and Xuanzang.
"So Lao Wei hopes that you will help Xuanzang stick to his true heart, don't become a golden cicada yourself, you can't be unrebellious because you are destined, he is not a golden cicada......."
