Chapter 149, the change of the White Horse Temple
The first time Master Kong Jing and I met, I still remember it was at the Tibetan Cultivation Auction, when he attended as the first person in the White Horse Temple of Zen BuddhismAt that time, he was already a half-immortal, and later in the battle of the underworld, when he saved Sima Tian, the master of empty purification made a great effort to suppress the half-immortal masters under the hands of Chao Motian.
For me, the Master of Air Purification is a rare elder.
I stood at the gate of the White Horse Temple, and when I saw this strange scene in the open space of the White Horse Temple, my heart was shocked.
I ran in and picked up the Master of Purity who was lying on the ground, and I could still feel the thick and violent aura in the space around me.
Just by the concentration of aura that permeated the surroundings at this moment, my heart was filled with shock. With the power of one palm, the Void Purity Master, who was already close to the level of an absolute strength and a half-immortal, was seriously injured, and although the aura concentration around him did not break the level of the honorable position, it was definitely at the same level as the Demon Heart.
Could it be that the strong man of the Demon Slayer War made a move and suppressed the Master of Empty Purification? A thought crossed my mind.
If this is really the case, it means that during the days when I went to the Beihai Ice Palace and the ghost city of Xudu, the battle between the human monks and the demon slayer powerhouses has become almost white-hot.
I carefully placed the Master of Empty Purity on Pixiu's body, and asked Xiaohong to take the Master of Empty Purity back to the branch of the Tongtian Society overnight. And I stayed on my own, collecting clues.
The White Horse Temple is a thousand-year-old temple, the first ancient temple built after the introduction of Zen Buddhism to the Central Plains, with a very long history and background.
The White Horse Temple itself is a holy place for tourists to worship the Buddha, and the flow of people is often large and endless, and in fact, the White Horse Temple is divided into two parts: the inner temple and the outer temple.
The so-called outer temple refers to a place for tourists to browse and worship the Buddha, and it is open to the mortal world.
The inner temple is a place where the monks rest and recuperate.
At this time, I walked through the main hall in front of the gate and walked towards the inner temple of Hakuba-ji Temple.
Strangely, I didn't see a single monk on the road, and the surroundings were very quiet, and there was no trace of a fight.
The doubts in my heart are even greater, what happened to the White Horse Temple?
The monks were gone, and Master Kongjing was suppressed and severely injured.
What the hell is going on at the White Horse Temple!
The more I went inside, the more unsettled my heart became, and after crossing the main hall and bypassing the Buddhist shrine behind, I was about to enter the inner temple of the White Horse Temple.
Vigilant, I clenched the Storm Talisman tightly in my hand, and I was able to react immediately to any movement.
Xingtian and Bai Gu are still recuperating from their injuries, if they encounter a strong person above the level of an absolute half-immortal, my first reaction will definitely be to run away.
At this time, the White Horse Temple has no Buddha power, the sky is dark, there is no light in the Buddhist temple, and this empty Buddhist temple is particularly strange and quiet.
I lifted my feet and walked inside, and the eye of heaven was opened to the fullest extent, and in the darkness, I could see the scenery with the help of a glimmer of starlight.
There is also no one in the inner temple, those tall Buddha statues and eight heavenly dragon statues are standing quietly, the original Buddhist house where the monks lived is also not there at this time, I saw some clothes scattered on the bed, but the owner of these clothes is missing.
In the entire White Horse Temple, all the people disappeared as if they had been taken captive.
"Could it be that the strong man of the Demon Slaying War injured the Master of Empty Purity, and then forcibly abducted all the monks of the White Horse Temple? Want to ruin this thousand-year-old temple? ”
I went around and didn't find anything? There was no blood, no trace of a fight, no trace of destruction, no clue other than a furious aura.
I was wondering when I raised my foot and wanted to go out and continue to check.
Suddenly, I heard a series of very small sounds, very soft, very weak, if it wasn't for the fact that my heavenly eye was opened to the maximum extent in advance, maybe I would not have been able to detect this small sound.
The source of the sound was the opposite meditation room, I rushed in, and the Storm Talisman came out of my hand at the same time, and 10080 spiritual power short swords raged in the room with a powerful aura, and the light blue light gathered together, illuminating the entire room.
I saw a small figure in the corner lying tremblingly on the edge of the candlestick, it was a little mouse, with black skin and red glasses.
It is said that rats like to steal oil from candlesticks, and this is really the case!
It's just that when the rat saw me, not only did it not run away, but looked at me in a daze.
The corners of my mouth flickered, and a short sword of spiritual power stabbed down directly under my guidance and hung over the mouse's head.
"Don't, why do you do this trick again!"
A rather familiar voice came, and the rat on the candlestick slowly grew larger, gradually shedding its form of a rat and taking on a human form.
In the end, the rat that completely turned into a human form was actually Gan Cheng that I caught in the ghost city of Xudu before!
"You, you, move this spiritual power dagger a little bit, it's so fucking scary."
Gan Cheng lightly tapped the spiritual power short sword with his fingers, and immediately took his hand back in fright.
"What are you doing here?"
I asked, grabbing him by the collar.
"I, I'm just here to fight the autumn wind, I belong to the coolies of the pure demon faction, so I have to hand over a certain amount of treasures every month. Today I passed by the White Horse Temple, and when I saw that there was no one inside, I wanted to come in and steal something! ”
Gan Chengxiu is a rat, and as a result, this courage is the same as that of a mouse.
At this time, I saw a candlestick in his hand, and it was indeed a treasure.
White Horse Temple is the first ancient temple of Zen Buddhism, and there are naturally many treasures in it. Usually, there are monks stationed in the White Horse Temple, and there are more Kongjing masters and some Zen monks who study in the town, so they are naturally fine.
However, today, in the White Horse Temple, Master Kongjing was seriously injured, and the monks disappeared.
The candlestick in Gan Cheng's hand also has a origin, and this candlestick is called the Qibao Wheel Turntable.
It is a candlestick made of the best lotus pod core as the foundation, and then the best red snow wax as the pillar.
When the lights are lit, there will be a white mist like snowflakes floating around you, which is very beautiful. If you put a little rosin, it will make the fragrance diffuse and calm people's hearts.
This baby, in the market outside, the market price is definitely worth the money of a night pearl.
"Hmph."
I snorted, and Gan Cheng was frightened and put the stolen candlestick back on the table.
"When did you come? Where did it come from? ”
It suddenly occurred to me that if he had come in one step ahead of me, there would be no reason why I wouldn't have seen Master Void Purity seriously injured and fall to the ground.
"I arrived 1 hour before you and came in through the main entrance."
Gan Cheng replied quickly.
When I heard this, my heart became even more suspicious, how could it be? Didn't he really see the Master of Emptiness? If he saw it, he wouldn't be scared and run away with his tail between his legs!
"Did you see anything when you walked in the door?"
I snapped.
"No, no, there's no one, I'm still wondering, how can there be no one!"
Gan Cheng was probably taken aback by my serious expression, and there was a slight tremor in his answer.
"That's not right!"
I pulled Gan Cheng and rushed straight out, and after passing through the Buddha shrine and the main hall, I came to the place where I had met Master Kongjing before.
However, at this moment, there was no blood stain left by the Void Purity Master on the ground, and there was no such huge palm print, everything was as if it didn't exist!
"How is that possible!"
My heart pounded. Did I fall for the illusion just now? But who can deceive me with illusion when my Heavenly Eye is opened to the highest level? Who could create such a realistic illusion?
Could it be that there is a master illusion who is even more skilled than the head of the Qingfeng Dao?
So, where did the real Master of Empty Purity and the monks of the White Horse Temple go?
The doubts in my heart grew bigger and bigger, and I didn't understand them more and more.
A huge temple, even if I was caught in the illusion just now, I should have been out of trouble at this time. Because Gan Cheng came in as a mouse, it stands to reason that he didn't see emptiness, so he was naturally different from me.
"I, when I came in, I saw a figure coming."
At this time, Gan Cheng said weakly, with a flattering smile on his face.
"Figures?"
Just when I was running out of thoughts, Gan Cheng's words caught my attention.
"Yes, when I slipped in, I saw no one around, and I was still suspicious, so I walked around. As a result, I saw a figure flash in the corner to the east of the inner temple, as if in a hurry to find something. I was scared and hid under a pillar on the side. Finally, I heard the figure muttering to himself, 'Why isn't the Golden Body of the Third World here?' ’”
Gan Cheng's words set off huge waves in my heart, and some people actually came to the White Horse Temple to covet the third golden body of the Dragon Bodhisattva.
However, this belongs to the stunt of the master of air purification, and it is naturally very well collected, and it seems that the other party is empty.
At this time, I calculated the time, and Pixiu should still be on the way.
I sealed the Gancheng meridians, put them in the ghost gourd, and set off for the return journey.
Regardless of whether the Void Purification Master that Pixiu brought back is true or not, I need to verify it myself.
The changes in the White Horse Temple are too alarming, whether it is the mysterious disappearance of the monk or the appearance of this strange figure, it shows that someone has set their sights on the White Horse Temple.
And we, Tongtianhui, as allies of the White Horse Temple and Zen Buddhism, must take care of this matter. 151 Kanshu.com .
