*Northwest Ancient Temple (36)*

As mentioned last time, Chen Xiaofeng used the "Taishang Phantom Technique" to pass the level guarded by the fire qilin, and then came to the iron gate of Zuihou Pass. But this door is too far from the previous ones.

I saw that this vermilion lacquer copper lock Xiangyun Gate was as high as the roof of the cave and as wide as the entire wall around the passage, just like a big wall blocking Chen Xiaofeng from the outside. Chen Xiaofeng tried to push the door hard, but this huge door seemed to be embedded in a tunnel, and no matter how hard Chen Xiaofeng exerted it, it just didn't move.

At this time, Chen Xiaofeng's nose was a little sweaty, and he said in his heart: Although the first four levels are dangerous, as long as you kill the things guarded, you can go to the next level. But this zuihou level is really incomprehensible, how much effort does it take to install this boss a door, I really don't know what the fat demon monk thinks, is there two bad money to burn?

But just when Chen Xiaofeng was a little depressed, he suddenly felt bursts of aura coming from this vermilion lacquer copper lock auspicious cloud gate. The little real person immediately looked at it: "Huh? ”

I saw that the giant gate was like a fluorescent light in the dark at this time, and the whole body emitted a slight light light, and the light seemed to be emitted by countless fireflies, green and shiny, and it looked really weird.

But Chen Xiaofeng, who is a descendant of Taoism, was not panicked when he saw such a scene, and he vaguely remembered that his master, Lao Zhenren, once said to himself: Among the Buddhist sects that are the same as the Taoist sect and take the mission of helping the world as their own responsibility, there was once a high Buddhist monk. It is said that before the monk's death, he traveled all over the world, preaching scriptures everywhere and crossing people.

And this monk has a hobby, that is, whenever he goes to a region, he will go around to find out if there are any extremely evil people in this area. Only when he hears that there are these people in these places whose hearts are deceived by evil spirits and who are doing evil everywhere, the kind monk will regard him as a person who is destined to do so, and he will definitely find this person to persuade him to do good and persuade him to convert to the Dharma.

At first, the monk saw bandits, and with the help of advanced Buddhism, he transformed them, and eventually made them give up their evil thoughts and take refuge in Buddhism. One day, the monk came to a place called the "Barbarian State". This is a small country located in the land of barbarians overseas, with a population of only tens of thousands, and this monk discovered a strange phenomenon here when he was in the country of barbarians.

That is, people here do not walk on their legs, but on their legs, jumping and walking like walking corpses. And the people of this place don't eat rice, they don't eat cooked food, they just eat raw meat from animals, and this monk gets a big bowl of raw meat in the first incarnation.

How could a monk eat meat, and it was still full of raw meat dripping with blood, the monk suddenly felt strange, so he asked the passers-by everywhere, wanting to know that the people in this place were so strange, so indistinguishable between humans and beasts. But he had traveled every inch of this small country, and no one wanted to tell him that this was what it was.

Until one day, the monk of Huayuan found that on this day, the originally deserted Javanese Ara domestic gongs and drums shook the sky, and the fireworks and cannons sang in unison, and he suddenly felt strange, so he followed the noisy pedestrian procession. It didn't matter if he walked, after walking for two days and two nights, Zuihou came to the top of the sea hundreds of miles away from the barbarian country.

The monks were very curious about what these Javanese Arabs were doing on this rough seashore with all kinds of cattle and sheep sacrifices and a dozen large boxes hundreds of miles away. Later, he discovered that the people here were actually performing some mysterious ritual of worship, and that there was a hideous stone statue made of obsidian on top of this vast beach.

From a distance, it looked like an Aurashasa ghost from hell was guarding the beach. This is the people of those barbarian countries began to kill pigs and sheep, and zuihou threw themselves into the sea to worship the strange stone statue. But what made the monks feel even more strange was that the people who were jumping and walking, after throwing the slaughtered pigs and sheep into the sea, went in one after another, and the dozen or so large wooden boxes were left next to the terrible stone statues.

The monk was immediately curious. I thought: The people of this barbarian country are really strange, and they have traveled hundreds of miles in a row, and Zuihou just threw some freshly slaughtered pigs and sheep into the sea, even if they worship the god of the sea, they don't need to work so hard?

Then the monk walked to the dozen or so wooden boxes that were neatly arranged, and when he opened one of them, he was surprised to find that these wooden boxes contained not gold and silver treasures, nor silk and satin, but living young girls.

The monk felt sad at this moment, and quickly opened the remaining wooden box, only to find that it was full of young women of the age and delicate appearance. When the monk untied the ropes that bound the women, and told them to leave quickly, there was a lot of evil on the beach, and he sensed that something evil would soon appear.

But instead of thanking him, the girls who had been placed here as sacrifices opened their mouths and bit him, and all but one of the younger girls remained on the beach, and the rest of the women threw themselves into the sea like mad and disappeared.

This is a bad thing for this kind monk, who is so good, even if it is a general sacrifice to the gods, he shouldn't use a living woman? It seems that the things worshiped in this barbarian country are definitely not good gods, and then the monk made up his mind to let the girl continue to stay on the beach, and he hid behind the reef a hundred meters away, and waited for the evil ghost in the sea to appear, and he used the secret method of Buddhism to eradicate this harmful demon for this radius of thousands of miles.

In the evening of that day, a strong wind suddenly blew on the beach, and dark clouds, lightning and thunder roared in the sky. On the surface of the sea, which was originally calm, the waves were turbulent and monstrous, and the monk knew in his heart that it seemed that this evil thing was about to come out, so he immediately stared at the sea and the girl on the beach.

The giant Lang on the surface of the sea was already a few feet high at this time, and he saw that the girl on the beach was already trembling with fright, and was slumped on the sand. Just as a terrifying thunderbolt fell from the sky, a huge evil ghost as fierce as the black stone statue suddenly appeared on the beach, covered with fluff, and pounced on the girl who had fainted with fright.

This is the monk shouted angrily: "You evil animal, this seat again, don't confess your sins to the Buddha quickly." ”

After that, the monk came to the hideous demon with a magic weapon in his hand and protected the young woman with his body. Then the monk and this evil ghost started a fierce battle, but the monk did not expect that this evil ghost full of fluff was too powerful, and he was not the opponent of the evil thing even if he had tried his best to cultivate all his life. Just when the monk's vitality was seriously injured and he fell to the ground and couldn't get up, an invincible and brave Taoist suddenly appeared on the beach, this Taoist leader held two cold light blades and fought evil ghosts.

Finally, when he was seriously injured, he repelled the evil thing, and the Taoist told the monk: "This evil ghost is a thousand-year-old zombie who burns the sky and slays the dragon, and he hides in this place to bewitch the world, suck blood and eat hearts, just to one day cultivate the 'bronze wall and golden body', at that time, not to mention the Buddha and the Taishang Zhenjun, even if it is an ancient god descending to earth, it may not be able to defeat this zombie king." ”

Therefore, this brave Taoist decided to go into the sea to pursue this zombie king, and devoted his life to eradicating the scourge for the common people in this world. At this time, the monk stopped the brave Taoist and said to him, "The Taoist master's magic is profound, and his cultivation is successful, but going down to the deep sea like this may not be able to eradicate evil spirits." The old man has been greatly injured, and his time is short, even if he continues to live reluctantly, it will only be a few days at most, so it is still the old man who goes to the sea to seal the evil demon, so that it can also bring peace to the world for a hundred years. ”

Zuihou, the monk persuaded the Taoist and asked him to take care of the surviving woman, and he borrowed one of the two cold light blades from the Taoist and went down to the sea and disappeared without a trace.

After that, it is said that the stone statue of the evil ghost on the beach, after the old monk went down to the sea, the terrible black stone statue collapsed and shattered, and since then there has been no trace of the evil ghost in this overseas barbarian radius of thousands of miles. And the people of the barbarian country have since ceased to jump and walk, and have also canceled the cruel worship rituals.

Later, I heard that the monk who went down to the sea to save the suffering of the world became a positive result and ascended to the Buddha. Later, the monk who became the Buddha drove down to the temple and taught the supreme Dharma to the monks in the mortal world, so the monks in that temple made a golden body for the fearless Buddha, and enshrined it in the temple for thousands of years, praying for the Buddha's blessing and blessing.

Lao Zhenren told Chen Xiaofeng this story at the beginning, mainly to let Chen Xiaofeng understand that Buddha and Taoism are the same heavenly principle, and they are both factions born to help the common people in the world. Therefore, Chen Xiaofeng, as a descendant of Taoism, must carefully abide by the precepts of Taoism, and cultivate the secret method of Taoism to defend the common people from being harmed by evil demons.

But after Chen Xiaofeng heard this story, he was not interested in the Buddha who died in order to save the common people, but was full of curiosity about the mysterious Taoist. I always feel that one day I will become such a brave Taoist, fighting against evil demons to protect the people of the world.

Chen Xiaofeng remembered the story told by the master at this time, not because he missed the master, but because of the zuihou of this story, the master once said: After the monk who became the Buddha was molded by the monks of the temple, the golden body of the Buddha suddenly shone with golden light, and then the golden light formed a huge gate, surrounding the golden body of the Buddha. Only "destined people" can open the giant door and see the golden body of the Buddha, and the Buddha will teach him the Dharma and accept him as a disciple.

There is spiritual light everywhere in front of this giant gate in front of him, could it be that this gate is the golden light giant gate mentioned in Master's story?

Thinking of this, Chen Xiaofeng calmed down, meditated on the spot, and recited the "Taishang Five Hundred Mantras" in his mouth, and when the sound of the spell sounded, the giant gate with spiritual light seemed to resonate with Chen Xiaofeng's secret method.

Suddenly, the Buddha's light flashed, and the aura suddenly overflowed the giant gate, encircling Chen Xiaofeng's body, and then watched Chen Xiaofeng's body slowly rise, and with the guidance of the Buddha's light, he passed through the giant gate where the aura flashed, and came to the inside.

I saw that after Chen Xiaofeng entered the giant gate with the sacred and solemn Buddha light, he found that he had come to a dimensional space with no heaven and no earth. It's as if everything in this space is ethereal, yet formless.

Countless starlight dots bloomed around Chen Xiaofeng, and Xiao Zhenren wanted to stabilize his body at this time, so that he could find balance, but no matter how he adjusted his body, he could never find the image of heaven and earth in the endless void space.

Even if Chen Xiaofeng took out the feng shui compass from the yellow cloth bag, the pointer in the compass turned aimlessly 360 degrees, and it was impossible to distinguish the direction at all. At this moment, a voice like the spirit of the vast universe and the soul of the heavenly Brahma sounded sounded.
