Chapter Forty-Six: The Water Ghost of the Dragon King River
CHAPTER XLVI
The water ghost of the Dragon King River
ââââââââ
Dragon King Temple.
When Lin Fei arrived, it was just in the afternoon, when the temple gate was about to be closed, allowing the pilgrims who came to visit to leave one by one.
Lin Fei was naturally blocked out, and the staff who refused to be accommodating made Lin Fei very distressed. Walked outside the temple gate and looked at the temple wall, which was three meters! It's not hard to turn it over on your own, but what if you jump in and be treated as a thief?
After some entanglement, Lin Fei took advantage of the fact that the sky was getting dark and there was no one around, so he started from the southwest side of the temple
Why did you suddenly think of the Dragon King Temple, and does this have any connection with the current case? Not at the moment!
The reason why I thought of the Dragon King Temple was naturally because I thought of the old monk in that temple. Because he had a problem that he had to ask an expert in some area!
And this problem, I'm afraid that Lao Hu or the strange old man may not necessarily have the authority of the old monk of the Dragon King Temple.
Exactly the question about water ghosts! How does a landlubber swim right, or how does a fisherman catch a fish?
Naturally, it's the latter, in terms of knowledge, maybe Lao Hu and the strange old man know better. But when it comes to water ghosts, I'm afraid that neither of the two will know much about the old monk who has been guarding the Dragon King River all year round!
Regarding the question of this old monk, Lin Fei had privately asked Lao Hu and the strange old man if he knew that there was a high monk in this Dragon King Temple. How do you know that neither of them even knew that there was such a storage in the Dragon King Temple, as if neither of them knew this person's storage zĂ i, but they knew that the folk rumors that the bottom of the Dragon King River was a place where the dragon king who had been included in the immortal class practiced before ascending to immortal. Whether this rumor is true or not, no one knows!
Let's talk about this, after Lin Fei climbed over the wall and entered the temple. Although it was just evening at this moment, the monks in this temple seemed to have the problem of going to bed early, and they circled around the temple, and there was not even half a figure!
Subconsciously walked to the hall where I met the old monk for the first time, and the lights were getting late at this moment, and there was only one oil lamp in the hall to illuminate the Buddha statue, and the rest was dim and dim
What else is in the temple?
Lin Fei stopped at the door of the main hall, and he didn't seem to want to dodge!
What did he seem to feel? Then bowed down to the inside of the hall, and said loudly: "Senior Lin Fei, I came at night and disturbed the master!" â
"Oooo After listening to it for a long time, it still makes people feel a little calm in their hearts
"Master" Lin Fei asked again in the room.
"Donor, I haven't seen you recently, don't come unharmed!"
As soon as the words fell, an oil lamp lit up instantly, and another oil lamp lit up a few more days apart
All the way up to after the ninth.
Buddhism pays attention to: "Ninety-nine return to one, and eventually achieve positive results." â
What does it mean for this old monk to light nine oil lamps?
Lin Fei walked into the main hall and bowed again: "Senior Lin Fei has seen the master!" â
"Master Lin, the last time I said goodbye was a few months apart, and the donor's cultivation has improved so much!" The old monk turned around and praised it, and then frowned again: "But why is his body weaker than before!" â
Lin Fei smiled: "Recently, I have occasionally felt a cold, and it should be fine in a few days!" â
The old monk smiled, stood up, lifted a bucket of oil pots specially used to fill oil lamps on the altar of the main hall, and began to give oil to each oil lamp one by one.
While asking: "I don't know what happened to the old monk when the donor came late at night?" â
"Master Mingjian! The disciple is indeed here! â
Lin Fei politely took the oil pot in the old monk's hand and filled the oil pot one by one.
"Oh? I don't know what worries Lord Lin! The old monk asked.
Lin Fei asked while filling the oil: "Master, you have lived by the Dragon King River for a long time, have you heard the rumors about water ghosts!" â
The old monk said: "The old monk is a person from outside the world, although there are many pilgrims in and out of the temple, but few have heard these gossip. I've never heard of rumors about water ghosts, but I've seen a few! â
The first half of the sentence made Lin Fei slightly depressed, but when he heard the back, he was overjoyed and exclaimed: It seems that I have found the right person!
The old monk then said: "The old monk has been a monk here since he was eighteen years old, and he has lived in this temple for decades in a blink of an eye. â
In the old monk's recollections, Lin Fei learned that his common surname was Chen, and his name was unknown. After becoming a monk, he was called Master Yongchao! I've been practicing for decades!
He must know a lot about the Dragon King River!
"I was looking into a case recently where the cause of death was blood loss. But the blood left the body in an instant! Lin Fei said: "I once saw it in an ancient book, and there were similar strange things in ancient times!" And this strange thing happened in the town near the river, and at that time I wondered if this matter was related to the Longwang River in our Chengnan City? â
"Why do you think so?" The old monk asked with a still expression.
"Because the disciple has also learned a little fur Dao technique, he knows that ghosts are divided into levels, and each has different skills." Lin Fei said: "Only this water ghost knows very little! I just know that the water ghost has extraordinary combat effectiveness in the water, and I don't know about the water ghost."
"Water ghosts, like ghosts, also have a lot of skills!" The old monk said: "Water ghosts are also ghost ghosts, and they have the same level as ghosts. It's just that there is a difference within the first three classes! â
"The difference?"
"The first three levels of water ghosts can only be in the water, once they reach the fourth level, then they can go ashore!"
"So diao!"
The old monk raised his head and looked out of the second: "There is more than one water ghost in this Dragon King River!" â
"I know there are water ghosts in the Dragon King River!" Lin Fei naturally knew, after all, he had seen one?
"And the biggest difference between water ghosts and ghosts is that "the old monk said, "the skills of water ghosts can be inherited!" â
"Heredity?" Lin Fei opened his mouth and looked at the old monk in surprise: "Master, don't fool me!" Can the skills of the water ghost be inherited? â
"Have you ever heard of the water ghost looking for a replacement for the dead ghost?"
"I've heard of it!"
"If the water ghost doesn't find a stand-in, that person will become a water ghost for him. The essence of this is different from the rest of the ghosts! As soon as the old monk said this, Lin Fei seemed to understand, and said: "It's like, this second water ghost is like the descendant of the first water ghost, and the third is the descendant of the second!" â
"The words are not coarse!" Master Yongchao said: "In the past, there was a water ghost in this Dragon King River who could instantly suck the water from a person's body in an instant! â
Lin Fei scratched the back of his head: Could it be that the water ghost recorded in "Tao Shuo Tuzhi" is the water ghost of the Longwang River? Does it mean that the author himself has ever passed by Seongnam City?
