Chapter 108: The Fox Mother and Daughter
After descending the mountain, the Xuanye spreads the Dharma while turning the relationship. And at noon on this day, Xuanye, who was walking on the road, suddenly saw a little girl crying there.
And the strange thing is that the people around look at this little girl and hide far away. No one chose to come to her aid.
Xuan Ye walked forward quickly, squatted down, and then asked, "Why is the little benefactor crying here?"
"Brother, I can't find my mother. The little girl said intermittently, crying unstoppable.
"And do you remember where your home is?"
The little girl shook her head with tears. "I still remember. ”
"Will the poor monk take you home?"
The little girl nodded in agreement, and Genye reached out to pick up the little girl when she saw that the little girl agreed.
Although the monks preach that the four major Buddhadharmas are empty, they are afraid of women. But Xuanye didn't have any special thoughts about this little girl. That's why I picked her up, because it would be faster to hurry.
Following the direction pointed by the little girl, the two walked farther and farther, and gradually left the town. I came to a small mountain village.
By this time it was already dark, and the sky was thundering and lightning, and it seemed that it would rain soon.
At this time, the little girl said, "Brother, my house is in front." ”
Following the little girl's instructions, Xuan Ye carried him and came to a dilapidated temple. Xuanye asked a little strangely. "Little donor, are you sure this is your home?"
"Yes, brother, this is my home. ”
Xuanye carried the little girl into the temple, the inside of the temple was already very dilapidated, and even the roof above had holes. It's like it's going to collapse at any moment.
The old age of the temple is a small matter, and there are still many white bones thrown on the ground in the house. Looking at the shape of the white bones, it is clear that they are human bones.
Although Xuanye is a monk, he is not stupid. Looking at the white bones all over the ground, he knew that he had been fooled. However, there was no panic in his eyes. "Now that you are home, the poor monk will take his leave. With that, he put down the little girl.
At this time, the wind was raging outside the temple. The door of the temple was also slammed shut by the strong wind. "Little monk, it's raining in the sky right now. Why not take a break and wait for the rain to pass before leaving. ”
The sound comes from behind a Buddha statue like a temple, and after the sound falls. A fiery figure stepped out from behind the data.
Coming out from behind the Buddha statue was a fox, all fiery red. And it has three tails on its body.
Xuan Ye's eyes did not show panic, "Donor, your child has been sent back, and the poor monk will leave first." ”
"Little monk, do you think you can still walk now?"
"Donor, what do you mean by that?"
The fox stepped forward and came to Genye. "Thank you in advance for sending my daughter back to me, but we are still hungry. Can you give your flesh to give our mother and daughter a full meal?"
The fox said that his body gradually changed, turning into a human form. It turned into a slim woman, and at this time the little girl also ran behind her.
Looking at the fox that had turned into a human form, Xuan Ye knew that although he practiced Buddhism for two lifetimes, he was definitely not his opponent.
"Well, then the poor monk will sacrifice his flesh and blood. I hope that after the two of them eat the poor monks, they will not hurt other living beings. ”
At this time, the Xuanye has a kind of effect like the meaning of the ancestor, and the Buddha can cut the meat to feed the eagle. Why can't he give up this body of flesh and blood and let the mother and daughter fill their stomachs.
After that, Xuanye did not run away from the door, but sat cross-legged on the ground and recited the scriptures.
The fox saw that Xuanye had given up resistance, and there was no turmoil in his heart, and it knew very well in his heart that even if Xuanye did not resist, he would definitely not be able to resist himself. He has no ability to resist at all, and if he does, it will take some time for him.
The fox stepped forward and was about to make a move on Genye. The closed door of the temple was opened.
A woman in red floated into the temple, looked at the fox who was about to eat people, and opened her mouth to scold. "Sao fox, I want to kill people again. As he spoke, he slapped him.
The fox quickly dodged, dodging the attack of the woman in red. "You're a ghost, what are you doing in charge of people's affairs?
At this time, the fox was angry, and she didn't have to let her daughter go to the street to deceive people before. But since the female ghost came, it has been against it everywhere, and it has not eaten human flesh for a long time.
The woman in red had a disdainful expression. "What if I just go against you? You kill living beings every day, and when you go to the next tribulation, you will be directly killed by the thunderbolt, and I am saving you. ”
The fox's eyes flashed with a cold light, "Don't I know what you're talking about? ”
"Then let's stop talking nonsense, let's see you at hand. The woman in red was obviously also a violent temper, and said that this slap hit again.
Not to be outdone, the fox reached out and slapped her. After a palm, the two of them each took several steps back, and they were evenly matched.
The fox's eyes moved. "Forget about today's matter, I'll let you go for the time being. You're going to mess with me again. I'm going to let you wander. As he spoke, he took the little girl and disappeared directly into the temple.
At this time, Xuanye also stood up and saluted slightly to the female ghost. "Thank you Ye Xuan for saving your life. ”
Ye Xuan heard Xuanye call out his name, and his face was puzzled. "You monk know me?"
Genba nodded, "Yes." ”
Ye Xuan was even more strange, tilting his head and thinking for a long time, but he didn't remember who the monks were in front of him, "When did we meet?"
"I've known each other since I've known each other in my last life. ”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, and suddenly opened his mouth wide in surprise. There was also some joy on his face. "You're the little monk who blocked a palm for me. ”
"It's the poor monk. "When I met Ye Xuan again, Xuan Ye was also a little strange, how could there be such a coincidence, I could meet her twice when I went down the mountain.
Ye Xuan looked happy, and stepped forward to take Xuan Ye's hand. "It's really you, why are you alive again?" said and sniffed Xuan Ye's body with his nose, and the taste was the same as before, and it was really confirmed.
"The poor monk is not alive, and it is impossible for the dead to be resurrected. The poor monk has gone through reincarnation and has come back to the world. ”
Ye Xuan is in a very happy mood now, "Forget it, no matter how much, as long as you live." Let me tell you, I've never killed an ordinary person now. Nor did they mutilate living beings......"
While they were saying this, the fox took her daughter and came to a cave. This is their home, after entering the cave. A mouthful of blood spurted out of the fox's mouth.
The little girl was shocked, "Mother, what's wrong with you?"
The fox touched the little girl's head, "My mother is fine, but I didn't expect that I hadn't seen her for more than a month." The demon's ways grew again. The current mother is a bit of no match for him. ”
At this time, the little girl left a tear stain on her face, "Mother, then we won't eat human flesh in the future, okay? I don't want my mother to be hurt." ”
"What are you talking about? How are you going to live?"
The little girl is in human form because it was born of a fox and a human man. That's why the human form is retained.
However, she has been frail since birth. No matter how much you heal, you can't cure it. So the fox worked so hard that he didn't know where to find a recipe. But the primer of this prescription is very strange, that is, the flesh and blood of the living.
And the reason why it didn't choose to go to the town and catch a person to be used as a medicine primer. It's because there are powerful Taoist priests in the nearby towns. Let it not dare to approach.
The fox didn't want to lose his lovely daughter at all, so he withstood it, even if the pressure was thunderous. Mutilating the lives of little girls. This is also the real reason why it wants to eat living people, otherwise it will not eat any kind of meat.
The fox sat quietly in the hole for a while, "You wait at home, and my mother will come back in a while." ”
The little girl flashed tears, "Mother, don't go." ”
The fox glanced at the little girl dotingly, "Don't worry, mother, it's okay." With that, he turned around and left the cave.
It hadn't been long since it left the temple, and it looked like it was sneaking back now. The reason is that the little girl may die without medicine for a few days.
It was afraid to go to the town, so it had to gamble again. Let's see if we can catch this monk. is also betting on whether Ye Xuan has left?
By this time it was already raining heavily in the sky, and the fox braved the rain to return to the temple.
In the temple, Ye Xuan and Xuan Ye were still chatting. "We are so fateful, you have lived two lifetimes, and you can meet me. Is this our fate?" Ye Xuan also made a joke about Xuanye at this time.
"This thing is very mysterious. Many things arise and perish due to causes. ”
"Okay, little monk, you don't have to tell me any big truths. I don't understand what you're talking about, and I don't want to. Hearing what scriptures Xuan Ye was going to tell him again, Ye Xuan felt that his head was too big.
The rain outside was very heavy, and it had already affected their hearing. And because of this heavy rain, Xuanye stayed in the temple and didn't leave. What they didn't know was that the fox had sneaked into the temple again.
This time, the fox hid behind the Buddha statue again, and looked at the two people who were chatting with their backs to them, and it felt that the time had come.
The fox quickly rushed out from behind the Buddha statue and went straight to Xuanye. came to Xuanye's front and grabbed Xuanye's neck. Then he broke through the temple door and rushed out.
Ye Xuan, who was still a little happy, watched a red shadow flash, and Xuanye disappeared. She knew that this red shadow was definitely the fox just now.
He also quickly stood up and chased outside, shouting as he chased back, "Sao Fox, if you dare to do anything to the little monk, I will kill you." ”
