Chapter 189: Burning
I don't really understand what the burning body offering to the Buddha is, but I once heard the old man Zuo say this.
"Among the Buddhist classics, the Lotus Sutra and the Lengyan Sutra both have records of burning fingers to make offerings to the Buddha." When the old man Zuo said this, he didn't have the usual hippie smile, and his expression was very serious: "Ordinary monks can't do this kind of thing, only the real enlightened monks and practicing Bodhisattvas can prove their great wish power by lighting .......their knuckles, so as to prove that there is no self, no longevity, no one, and no sentient beings."
"This great desire contains compassion, self-sacrifice, and all kinds of ........ in the world."
After listening to Old Man Zuo's narration, to be honest, I was a little puzzled, and I said that these monks are also powerful enough, just to prove those things, they burned their fingers?
"Does this desire serve any other purpose?" I asked curiously.
"Yes." Old man Zuo said, and there was a faint admiration in his eyes: "Burning the stinky skin of this world, giving up three thousand troubled bodies, just burning off a knuckle, its great wish power is enough to subdue demons and subdue demons, and it is not enough to see ten yin sins tied together." ”
As soon as the words fell, the old man Zuo also looked helpless.
"It's a pity that this kind of magic method has been almost lost, and there is no corresponding Dharma to echo it, let alone burning the knuckles, even burning itself cannot produce any great wishing power.......
........................
Thinking of what Old Man Zuo had said to me, I looked at Xiao Rulai's burning palm, and my eyes almost popped out.
"The blind brother also knows that I use burning body to make offerings to the Buddha?" Xiao Rulai asked.
Hearing the title of "blind brother", the blind boss's expression stiffened significantly, and his tone became much softer at this time.
"I've seen other people use it, so I know what it is." The blind boss said: "The qi on your body has completely changed, if I can't recognize it, how blind will I be?" ”
"Brother Yi, burn your body to offer to the Buddha....... Do you have to burn the whole body? I asked cautiously.
The blind boss snorted and didn't explain much to me.
"Do people die?" I asked again.
"What do you say?" The blind boss asked silently.
Hearing this, I immediately stopped squeaking, and when I looked at Xiao Rulai, my eyes became complicated.
"Are you really ready to play with your life?" The blind boss frowned and asked Xiao Rulai.
"At first, I wasn't going to play with my life, but now I can't." Xiao Rulai sighed: "The situation does not allow it." ”
"What do you mean?" The blind boss was stunned.
"If I don't make a move, the two of you will definitely be dead and seriously injured........," Xiao Rulai said helplessly: "You don't look at the current situation." ”
Hearing Xiao Rulai say this, the blind boss frowned and asked me, "I can only feel that the evil qi over there is getting heavier, look at what the situation is." ”
"Okay." I nodded.
Then I turned my head and looked over the crater.
I don't know if I don't see this, but I'm shocked when I see it.
In the beginning, there were only four or five hundred people over there, all of them in human form, and there were no beast forms, but now....... Damn, at least there are thousands of numbers in the past!
These injustices appeared one after another as if they appeared out of thin air, and from a distance, they looked like dense black worms, and I was dizzy to see.
"There are more and more demons, and there are still no beasts, all of them are injustices in human form." I truthfully reported to the blind boss: "There are about one or two thousand demons now, tall, short, fat and thin, and ....... Damn, they're all three or four stories tall, right?! It's a giant, isn't it??! ”
"No beasts?" The blind boss nodded, but he didn't look surprised: "This is normal, don't you see that Mang Chitose is also in human form?" ”
"That's not what it really is!" I whispered.
"Maybe none of the demons who were suppressed in it are real." The blind boss smacked his lips: "If they all have real bodies, those beast-shaped demons will take up more space?" Anyone who is a little bigger can block that crater! ”
"That's just as well." I sighed.
As I spoke, I suddenly noticed that the demons standing in the front row seemed to be starting to take steps towards us.
The speed at which they travel is not very fast, anyway, it is not as fast as the speed of ordinary people running, at most it can be regarded as fast walking.
"The grandchildren are here." I frowned and said, "Looks like they're coming for us." ”
"Is it fast?" The blind boss asked me.
"It's okay, it's like a living person walking quickly." I replied.
"That's pretty slow, I thought these grandsons were going to fly over........" The blind boss seemed relieved.
"Those evil qi on the edge of the Demon Suppression Peak are gone, and these things can fly." Xiao Rulai explained.
"How do you know?" The blind boss was stunned.
"There's a mural carved on the other side of the big array." Xiao Ru said: "Those evil qi are not there to stop us from going down the mountain, just to prevent the evil demons from coming down the mountain, don't think that it is a simple evil qi, it is all emanating from the gust qi." ”
"?" The blind boss was a little puzzled and scratched his head: "Why do I feel like those evil spirits." ”
Xiao Rulai lowered his head, looked at the burning palm, and a smile appeared on his face.
"The original soup turns into the original food."
The blind boss is not a stupid person, as soon as he heard this, he immediately understood what Xiao Rulai meant, and nodded thoughtfully: "This is a method, it should be effective, but it is not an ordinary difficulty to implement........"
"So, we can't compare to the ancients." Xiao Rulai said with a smile.
After saying this, Xiao Rulai raised his head, glanced in the direction of the demon, and said very seriously.
"I can barely burn the weaker group of demons, I can't get rid of the demons in the back, I really don't have that ability, I can only help you block it."
I didn't say anything, and looked at the blind boss silently.
"These evil spirits come in batches." The blind boss said, and his expression gradually became solemn: "The strength of the first batch of demons should be about the same as the seriously injured Ghost Tai Sui, relying on the middle group of demons, its momentum is so strong that it is already comparable to the Ghost Tai Sui in a complete state." ”
"Do you really want him to help us block it?"
I frowned, although Xiao Rulai didn't have a good relationship with me, but in this matter, I really didn't want to owe him favors.
Take your life to help us stop a catastrophe, who can stand this kind of great human affection?
"Conditionally." Xiao Rulai seemed to know what I was thinking, so he said, "You have to do your best to save the lives of my master and Ge Zhangjiao, is it okay?" ”
"Done." The blind boss nodded, and agreed without the slightest hesitation.
"Although I have always felt that you are not a good person, I believe what you say." Xiao Rulai said with a smile.
At this moment, I was about to say something, but before I could speak, the blind boss grabbed me violently.
"You are busy first, and I will take him farther away, so as not to get in the way of you." The blind boss said.
"Thank you." Xiao Rulai said with a smile.
"You're crazy?!" I couldn't help but curse, my expression was a little complicated: "You can't think of another way, can you?!" Do you have to take your life to block it?! What's the difference between you and suicide?! ”
Suddenly, Xiao Rulai and the blind boss replied to me in unison.
"If you don't take your life, no one can stop it."
After saying this, both of them laughed in unison.
"If he doesn't block it, you have to block it, or I will do it." The blind boss said: "Your Heavenly Spirit Array and Giving Yang Array are not enough to stop all the demons, and if you run out of one, you will lose everything." ”
"That can't ........ either"
"Brother Yuan." Xiao Rulai interrupted me, smiled at me, turned his head back, turned his back to us and said, "Xiao Tan is right, although you are usually quite unreliable and have a lot of bad water in your head, you are a good person. ”
"He doesn't want you to die!" I said through gritted teeth.
"He doesn't want you to die, does he?" Xiao Rulai asked rhetorically.
I was stunned for a moment and didn't speak.
At this moment, the blind boss covered my mouth without warning, and ran away with his left hand as if he were dragging me.
"If you have the intention to die, you can't stop it if you want to." The blind boss's voice rang in my ears, and his tone was very helpless, but there was a taste of understanding: "Don't waste that monk's kindness, once the fire in his body is burned, it can never be extinguished, and it is only a matter of time before he burns himself, and we can't stop it." ”
When the blind boss said this, Xiao Rulai suddenly burst into laughter and shouted at us without looking back.
"Thank you!!"
"Let's be opponents in the next life! If you can't be an opponent! Let's be friends!! ”
