Chapter 157: Withered Grass Village
Because the high priest didn't know the prototype of the formation and the spell used by the "Bronze Bull General" to summon the "Demon Bull King", he couldn't prescribe the right medicine to completely eradicate this scourge, but after most of his life of meditation, he finally cracked the summoning formation and spell, and copied all the runes on other cases.
When Brother Mu saw this, the first question came to his mind———
What were the spell words recorded by the high priest back then? Wandering? Does it refer to the ancestors of the little barbarians in the "Yak Village"?
The second thing that the translation says is to translate the "pun text———
It was more than 1,500 years ago, there were monks who traveled to this place, accidentally found that there seemed to be a faint demonic energy, he built the "Jinyao Temple" on the original site of this ancestral hall, spread the Dharma, to help suppress the demonic energy that was about to move, he extended the stone tablet left by the high priest that year, learned about the previous events, and decided to continue the unfinished wish of the high priest, after years of painstaking research, finally found out the method that can suppress the "Demon Bull King" for a long time, the method is very effective, but it is the means of "fighting poison with poison, and countering evil with evil". , there are many troubles.........
After reading this paragraph, Brother Mu had a second question———
What is the means used by the monks to "fight poison with poison and counter evil with evil"? He thought of what Bo Jie said just now: "The teacher asked me to remove the evil things on this 'Demon Ghost Record' for him, he said that this is to eliminate the karma of our ancestors of the 'Jinyao Temple', and all the disasters are caused by the previous generations." ——— what is the connection between the two?
The third thing in the translation is about the Qingshan Zen Master himself, I don't know if this master is often invited to give Zen lectures from outside, but this paragraph he wrote is a bit of a summary report———
After the death of the monk of the temple, he left two things for his disciples, one is the Buddhist treasure "Golden Relic" that has been passed down for thousands of years, and the other is the "Demon Ghost Record", and his disciples will continue to pass on the master's will——— each generation of heirs must remove the evil things on the "Demon Record" as a regular task, in order to eradicate the "Demon Bull King" as a lifelong goal, and after the "Jinyao Temple" from generation to generation, to the generation of Qingshan Zen Master, he finally took another solid step in the ultimate goal——— he has repeatedly investigated and studied, After many researches, it was finally deduced that the spell stolen by the evil man had been divided into two, and they all fell within a radius of several hundred miles nearby, as for the formation, it was in this mountain, and it would naturally come back when the time was ripe——— and the reason for hiding it from Bo Jie was very simple, once the previous masters and ancestors had successfully studied, there would be evil people who jumped out to make trouble, which fully shows that before the complete victory is not assured, we must no longer make a noise everywhere, and we must rely on the will of heaven to have someone to completely solve this matter.........
After reading it, Brother Mu naturally popped up a third question in his mind———
The "evil people" mentioned in the article seem to be more than one person, who are they? Could it be like the "Songyun faction"?
At the bottom of the box there is also a letter from Zen Master Qingshan, which is addressed to his apprentice Bo Jie———
My Disciples Command:
For the teacher to go, just as I came gently, not to take away a cloud.........
The main meaning of the letter is to warn Bo Jie——— that the elimination of evil has not yet succeeded, and that colleagues still need to work hard, guard against arrogance and rashness, and continue to carry forward the dedication spirit of the older generation of teachers and commanders who work hard and defy dangers and obstacles, and are bound to eradicate the "Demon Bull King" in the world.........
Jin Jiazi finally understood why Bo Jie refused to say his Dharma name before——— it turned out to be "forced precept", Bo Jie explained with a little embarrassment that when he was young, he had a stubborn temperament and too many bad habits, so after getting started, the master gave him this Dharma name, probably to let him force himself to quit his bad habits and be a new person, maybe he didn't think so much at that time——— "forced precept" and "breaking the precept" are homophones, but it is easy to produce ambiguity and cause misunderstanding.
After reading these, everyone understood the cause and effect of the matter in their hearts, Brother Mu and the others were naturally depressed and depressed in their hearts——— the things left by several predecessors were just memoirs, and the real mention of the method of removing the "Demon Bull King" was only a few words, which was useless, after all, it was the "Demon King" who was about to face the magic power, and the road behind them was very dangerous, which made Brother Mu, Jin Jiazi and Bo Jie have a headache.
But even if the road behind is difficult, they still have to go on after all, a few people counted their bags and were about to jump into the hole, and suddenly there was a low howl outside the house, the sound was high and low as if thousands of troops were galloping, and it was like countless armor soldiers fighting———
Liang Shanshan, Su Jiaojiao and others couldn't help but be moved when they heard it, Su Jiaojiao remembered that before going up the mountain, the old woman on the minibus mentioned the ———origin of the name "Howling Tianling", could it be that this ancient battlefield was too heavy to kill, thousands of souls could not rest in peace, and the group was haunted.........
He explained that there were countless caves dug in the mountain, and as soon as the mountain wind poured in, there would be such a sound.........
Brother Mu walked through the cave, and in less than half an hour, he felt the wind blowing in front of him, and when Bo Jie said, they jumped out, and finally reached the bottom of the back mountain, the sky was still dark, but they could already see the shadow of the village that was shaken out by the moonlight not far away.
The village was silent, every house opened its door, Brother Mu and the others called for a long time, entered a few houses, and did not see anyone, Jin Jiazi said worriedly, this is the last place he and Ah Liang went to——— Dry Grass Village, at that time the villagers had been fascinated by the black fog, and their temperament had changed greatly, and the two of them had used the magic array to control the place, but now how did it become like this, he was secretly anxious for the villagers, and even more worried about Ah Liang.
& Liang shouldn't have an accident——— "Brother Mu lay on a square boulder in the middle of a village to check, where a strange triangular pattern was painted, Jin Jiazi was also happy when he saw it, and explained to Su Jiaojiao, saying that it was their contact code, and they found a few more codes, Brother Mu said, "Go, behind the village!" He walked forward first, but Jin Jiazi didn't follow, looking up and staring at a few stunned places.........
Sukasuke noticed that Jin Jiazi was staring at a few large rocks scattered around the village, and he asked, "What, what's wrong?" ”
Jin Jiazi's eyebrows were embarrassed again, and she replied, "I remember the last time I came, it didn't seem to have these stones———"
Brother Mu only looked at it carefully after listening, he took out a pen and paper, according to the direction of the stone, drew a few circles on the paper, and then connected it with a line, everyone found that these stones seemed to be placed randomly, but when they were connected together, they were like a regular shape, everyone felt very familiar, but they couldn't remember where they had seen it, and they were thinking about it, but they heard Brother Mu pat his thigh and shouted: "Liang Shanshan, I also owe it to you ———"
