Chapter 705: The Cause and Effect Cycle of the Corpse Digger

Some of the charcoal with scorching sparks in it hit the body in terrible pain. I only heard the louder the python's scream, my body suddenly took off, and was instantly thrown into the air by the turbid gas spewed out by the giant python, fortunately I didn't hit the tree, but the oblique branches didn't know how many scratches on my face.

I saw myself flying more than ten meters in the air, and when I landed, I slid back a few meters, and my body kept scraping against things on both sides, and then it came to an abrupt stop.

I only felt dizzy in my head, and I wanted to vomit, but I was choked back by the churning of blood in my cavity.

With his hands on the ground, he half-bent up, and saw that the fire in front of him was still bright, but there was no evil wind. The giant python was attached to the fire, and it was writhing and screaming in the forest like a dragon.

I don't know how long it was, but it was a little taller than a cedar tree, and after a loud bang, the python fell to the ground and knocked down a tree, but the fire didn't look like it was going to be extinguished.

I turned my head to look around and saw that I was in a vegetable patch, a large cauliflower crushed by me when I hit the ground.

Looking back, an old earthen temple stands on the slope of the mountain, like a dying old man, who does not ask about the world, but has a lot of forgotten dust that wants to sigh.

I lay on the vegetable patch, watching the moon rise and fall. The fires in the forest were extinguished, but the sparks still fluttered upwards and disappeared into the white sky.

"Amitabha Buddha ......"

I rubbed my eyes, the sun was blocked by the old monk, and the residual light was still dazzling.

"Who are you?" I half-raised my head and looked at the old monk who gave the salute with one hand, and suddenly felt a sense of peace in my heart.

"Since he is destined to be a person, the old man's name is 'bitterness'. After speaking, the old monk half-bent down and picked me up.

I fell into his arms, watched the green cypress in the middle of the mountain, heard the wooden fish, and the Sanskrit sound was clear. I know that he is a monk in the earthen temple, but last night there was such a big fire in front of the mountain gate and no one came out, so why did he still look like no one was there this morning, and he didn't look at it.

The old monk carried me to the temple gate, looked at the three comfortable seal characters on the door - Changning Courtyard, did not wait for him to open the door, a little monk in his early twenties came out of the door, saw me stunned at first, and then his eyes became anxious, and he hurriedly said to the hard reading: "Master, why did you carry him back, this ......"

"Don't say much, open the courtyard door quickly. Kudu said to the little monk.

The little monk shook his head and sighed bitterly, glanced at me, took me from Kudu, picked me up and ran towards a hut. I looked at this temple, counting the person who carried me, there were three little monks, but without exception, they all looked anxious when they saw me. One by one, they stopped chanting, stood up and watched me enter the hut.

The little monk put me on a bed, shook his head, and walked out. I don't understand why everyone wants to see me like a plague god, I don't know if this temple doesn't want to take in outsiders, or if it doesn't want to take me in.

I was secretly wondering, but I saw Kudu push the door into the house, closed the door with his backhand, sat at the head of the bed, smiled, and said to me slowly: "Don't care, little donor, it's a poor monk's inferior disciple - keep the precepts ......"

"Where is this?" I asked.

"Tianping Mountain, Changning Courtyard. Kudu replied slowly.

I was horrified in my heart, but I didn't expect that I would run to Tianping Mountain unknowingly, and hurriedly asked Kudu: "How far is this from Taihu Lake?"

"Half a day away. Kudu replied.

I secretly scolded my mother, this time the fourth uncle and Xuanqing went to find me, without waiting for me to think about it, but I saw that Kudu had already stood up, pressed my thighs with both hands, and lifted it up violently, a crisp sound came, I screamed in pain, and half sat up.

I was about to complain, but suddenly reacted, my thigh actually felt pain, I slowly lifted my right leg, and sure enough, there was no such numbness.

Secretly scolding Li Zhuangshan, this kid is really ruthless, he must have removed my leg bones, if it wasn't for this old monk to help me pick it up in time, I'm afraid I would have to rely on crutches for the rest of my life.

Thinking of this, I hurriedly thanked him, but seeing that he was three stops and plump, his forehead was wide and his face was straight, and the "Peeping Heaven Sutra" said that those who were born with such a face, if they were monks, would be the people in power of the temple, how could they succumb to this Changning Temple?

But what puzzled me even more was that last night the giant python was attached to everyone, how could he ignore it when he screamed, these six roots can be poured clean, so I asked him: "Master Kudu, you didn't see the giant python last night? Why did you look like no one else?"

Kuduwan smiled and said to me: "It's all cause and effect, it was because of this python that Lao Qu lived here and built this Changning Courtyard." ”

Kudu led me outside the monastery, but there was no sign of his disciples. He pointed to a cave in the back mountain and talked about the python.

On an early summer morning, this small village near the mountains was unusually quiet, and most of the people had not yet risen, but they heard the shouting of a little boy, who took a branch in his hand, rubbed his eyes, and drove the old ox up the hill in boredom.

He was thirteen years old, but he had been herding cattle for five years, and he knew every tree on the mountain, knew where the grass was fertilized, and knew which dung was pulled by his own oxen. But every time before going out to herd cattle, his mother would tell him not to go near the cave on the cradle slope of the back mountain, because people and domestic animals often disappeared there, and gradually the people of the village regarded it as a forbidden place.

But the little boy didn't care, because only the grass there was the fattest, and the terrain was the flattest, and if he was lucky, he could fly there for a while.

On this day, the little boy, as usual, drove the oxen there, and lay down on the meadow and thought to himself, "If only I could fly a little longer!" ”

But what has always puzzled the boy is that his own cattle eat fat grass every day, why don't they grow two catties, he looked at the old scalper with a scalp and shook his head.

A cool breeze blew, and the little boy screamed and stood up, knowing that every time such a wind blew, he would fly far away.

The old scalper suddenly raised his head, his hooves parted, and he snorted twice. Suddenly, a huge suction force sucked the little boy into the air, and slowly drifted towards the cave of the half-stone cliff, but every time he floated to the entrance of the cave, he would fall for no reason, he wanted to climb in several times to see what was going on, but the cave was too high, and several attempts were unsuccessful.

In the evening, the little boy hummed a little song and drove the cattle home. But the child's mother frowned, looking at the child who was getting thinner day by day, and her heart became more and more anxious.

The mother asked the reason, and the little boy did not hide it, saying that he was a fairy every day, and he was beautiful, so how could he suddenly lose weight.

The child's mother was taken aback when she heard this, she didn't expect her own child to go there every day to herd cattle, this is still good, I have long heard of the goblin, this child must have been sucked by the goblin, so he will be so thin.

Early the next morning, the child's mother went to the village chief's house and asked the village chief to give him an idea. The village chief was also surprised when he heard this, and asked her to go to the town to find a Mr. Yin and Yang to see if she could get rid of the snake spirit.

She didn't dare to delay, and found the very famous Mr. Yin and Yang in the town that day, hoping that he could save his child, but before Mr. Yin and Yang could finish speaking, he only heard the word 'Cradle Slope' and shook his head hurriedly.

Coincidentally, just in time for the Kudu to go down the mountain, passing by here, I saw a woman hiding her face and crying bitterly on the corner of the street, so she stepped forward to ask. The child's mother will definitely be able to save her child if she sees that she is a monk.

"Master, save my child...... "The child's mother knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

Hearing that this person was in trouble, he hurriedly picked her up and asked, "What is it that makes the donor so sad?"

When the child's mother heard this, she immediately stopped crying, wiped her tears, and said to Kudu: "My child is like this, and so and so ...... In the past two days, I have been obsessed, my eyes are dark, and I am about to die. ”

Kudu was also shocked after listening to it, listening to her narration, the python's cultivation was extremely high, and it could actually suck people's essence and blood in the air, but now he can't worry a lot, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter. He recited the Buddha's name and followed the woman into the village.

When he arrived at the woman's house, he saw a child sitting on a wooden bench, looking into the distance. After reading it, Kudu was shocked, seeing that the child's eyes were deep-set, his face was dark, and he was obviously sucked most of the essence blood by the python, if there were two more times, I am afraid that even the physical body would be sucked into the hole by the python essence.

Seeing that the child's life was in danger, Kudu didn't dare to delay, so he went to Cradle Slope with a bold middle-aged man in the village to check out. So as to come up with a way to get rid of the evil python as soon as possible.

Although Taoism and Buddhism are widely spread among the people, the methods that can drive away evil are very different, Taoism mainly uses charms and five elements to use strong means to achieve the purpose of suppressing evil spirits. Buddhism is based on the universality of the mantra, stressing 'goodness', and being able to do so, even if it can't be done, it will not be good at killing.

Kudu was so kind at the beginning, which made the giant python more and more ferocious, and it caused misery.

The moon is in the middle of the sky, the mountain road is cloudy and windy, and the bitterness looks up from time to time to watch the stars. Although there is no way to observe the wind in the Buddhist laws, after Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains, in order to cater to the Central Plains folk idea of seeking benefits and avoiding disadvantages, a set of stargazing methods were created, called - Longzhong stargazing, which is not different from the Taoist crape myrtle stargazing method, which is a supreme and mysterious prediction method.

There was nothing unusual at the beginning of walking on the mountain road, but the closer to the cradle slope, the more dim the stars in the sky became, and the full moon was also covered with two layers of halo, so I guessed that the python spirit was absorbing the light of the stars and moon. If there are a few more days, I am afraid that the Arhat will not be able to descend into the world.

Thinking of this, Kudu couldn't help but speed up his pace, but the man who had been leading the way for him was trembling with fright, unwilling to go any further, pointed to the cave in front of him, and said to Kudu: "Master, you go by yourself, you can go back if you take a look, I'll go first." ”

After the man finished speaking, he was about to run, but before Kudu could react, he saw a giant python poking its head out of the cave in the middle of the mountain, and saw that the python's head was like Peng Gai, and its eyes were red. The blood-basin-like mouth suddenly opened.

Kudu only felt that his body was unstable on his feet, and he was about to be sucked into the air by the great serpent, and the wind swept the fallen leaves, and was sucked into the mouth of the great serpent.
