Seeing that the old monk did not react, the old village chief looked at the old monk and asked again softly, "May I ask who the master is Master Zhijing?" His face was full of anticipation, as if he already knew the answer.

The old monk put away the red awl, and then replied flatly, "The poor monk is the 490th generation of the Wutai Mountain Heavenly Dao Sect, and the Dharma name is empty" As soon as the old monk's words fell, the old village chief's tears of excitement flowed out, "You are a disciple of Master Zhijing?" This is great~~, our village is saved! “

"Don't worry, don't worry, I am not only here to help your village, but also to leave a will before the master dies for me to be sure to find that person, but now that person is far away in front of me, I am compassionate!" Master Empty Silence looked at me with one hand and said reverently, my heart "chuckled", I would rather be a freak than be a monk, not only to shave his bald head, but also have a lot of precepts, such as abstaining from sex, abstaining from meat, abstaining from alcohol, my wife still expects me to pass on the ancestry!

"It can't be me, right?" I pointed to myself and asked in shock, I hope that person is not me, but Master Empty Silence laughed and pointed at me, "That person is you, if I am right, you have a cross on your back., am I right?" I was so disappointed and amazed at how the Master of Emptiness could know the "cross" on my back, I nodded, "I'm a freak!" ”

"Freaks? Hahahaha" Master Empty Silence laughed, then let out a long sigh, "It's really incomprehensible to the world, do you know the meaning of your back cross?" I nodded, "Yes!" Isn't it just that I have two catastrophes in my life? "Actually, I heard my grandfather say that I have two calamities in my life, and it has something to do with the back cross!

"No, you don't know one thing, but that's all in hindsight!" The Master of Silence shook his head, and I asked suspiciously, "What is it?" ”

"In the future, you will understand that now I want to solve this evil relationship on behalf of Master, but it seems that I can't solve it anymore!" The Master of Silence sighed, as if he was feeling sorry for the grimace in the fire. I asked curiously, "Master of Emptiness, how do you know the cross on my back?" I shook my head slightly, closed my eyes, and said no more about the "cross" on my back.

"Then why don't you go to my house for a cup of tea and talk slowly," the old village chief invited us!

"No, this corpse must be cremated, otherwise there will be another disaster" The old monk flatly refused, but the two young people refused to live or die, cremation was not popular in the countryside at that time, so most people practiced burial! However, after the old village chief's efforts and persuasion, after a few people finally carried the corpse back, they were scared of a few heavy words from Master Empty Silence, and they should do what Master Empty Silence said!

When the matter was almost over, Master Empty Silence and I went to the old village chief's house with me, and the little sister went home in advance, his house was very simple, with a few bamboo stools and tables in the main hall, which looked like old antiques! It seems that this old village chief is not doing well? It's not as good as my little sister's house, the old village chief made us three cups of tea, looked at Master Kongshan and asked, "I don't know if Master Zhijing is still alive now?" ”

Master Empty Silence clasped his hands together and closed his eyes slightly, "Amitabha, Master, he passed away nine years ago!" The old village chief's eyes widened, "What? Master Zhijing has passed away? Back then, it was famous, and the prestige of the master spread all over the world~~, especially the master's mercy! ”

"Amitabha, Master's death means that he has been liberated!" The face of the Master of Emptiness became heavy, but he did not shed tears! I despised Master Empty Silence, and when it came to the death of my master, I was still so calm, but it was only later that I learned that Buddhism is forbidden to cry, and death is liberation!

"I think that our village was blessed by Master Zhijing back then, and I was also fortunate to meet the legendary Master Zhijing, but I saw the compassion and majesty of Master Zhijing back then!" The old village chief opened the conversation, and a look of awe appeared on his face. Master Empty Silence nodded, "Yes, that was seventy years ago" Master Empty Silence closed his eyes, as if caught in a memory!

"Back then, the deserted house was so ghostly that our village was a chicken and a dog jumping, you could listen to the miserable cry in the middle of the night, I was still young at the time, but I covered my ears every night, but it was useless, the miserable cry didn't seem to come from the ears, it was more like it came directly into the mind, and then the curious people went to explore the source, and the next day they died by the well as strangely like the person today, and according to people, they saw the grimace in the fire!" The old village chief said this, his face showed a look of fear, it seems that this experience is still vivid in his mind!

"Where did that ghost come from?" I looked at the old village chief and asked, from yesterday, this ghost is extremely ferocious, and it is nothing short of the soul I encountered before!

The old village chief shook his head and took a sip of tea, "Actually, I don't know very well, let me tell you what I heard, it seems that someone will die next!" That's when he told us why!

Seventy years ago, there was a big family in the town, and the daughter of this family took a fancy to a monk from a foreign country. But there was already a warlord Zhang who was standing here in the idea of playing a daughter, and intended to marry the daughter of this family as his aunt's wife! But this daughter already has a sweetheart, how can she be willing to marry? was ready to make a private agreement with the monk for life, but the daughter waited for many days, and the monk from the stranger never appeared!

Until three days later, the daughter returned to his home disheartened, due to the pressure of the warlord Zhang, the family had to marry the daughter to the warlord, the night before the wedding, the mansion inexplicably caught fire, it is said that the daughter jumped into the well and committed suicide, since then our village has not been at peace, and then the warlord Zhang committed suicide in defeat

"This is really a bastard, and he has been in love with him in vain," I said with some indignation, and it was actually a monk, as a monk, he should honestly eat fasting and chant Buddha, and he came here to seduce the girl

The old village chief smiled slightly, "Actually, this is also a legend, who knows if it's true or not?" ”

"Then what does this have to do with Master Zhijing?" I asked the old village chief, and Master Empty Silence took a sip of tea, "Let's talk about it, I was still a novice at the beginning, and I followed the master to this party, but I found that the resentment here was very heavy, so the master went to the deserted house to investigate, and the result was that the ghost fought for three days and three nights, and the ghost was always unwilling to exceed and reincarnation, and insisted on seeing the negative man ~~, originally such a ghost was going to fight the soul of the soul, so as not to endanger the whole world!" ”

"But Master Zhijing is merciful and uses the secret method of the Heavenly Dao Sect to seal the ghosts, but now that the seal has been broken, what should we do?" The old village chief took the words of Master Empty Silence with admiration, but Master Empty Silence shook his head and didn't talk about how to solve it, but said lightly: "No, part of Master's consideration back then was compassion, and more importantly, there were other reasons~~"

"What the hell? Could it be that Master Zhijing is the negative man? I leaned over and asked curiously, could this negative man be Master Zhijing? Let's wait and see~~
