Chapter 440: Stepping on the Lotus Throne
"Shamon!"
Shamon bowed, stepped out of the ranks, and laid yellow silk on the ground with another Spirit Sect disciple. The yellow silk is five feet three inches wide and two feet three feet long, and there is no ornament on it.
Atisha said to the more than forty children: "A true spirit child has spiritual energy in his body, and when he steps on the yellow silk, he will leave footprints on it. Take off your shoes, line up, and come one by one. ”
Luo Sang is the most enlightened, never forget, no matter what Buddhist scriptures, you can recite them a few times, and she is highly respected by the children in the school.
The little girl was not nervous, she was generous, and after receiving Atisha's signal, she folded her hands and walked on the yellow silk with her bare feet, and after every step, there would be a golden footprint that kept flashing.
Shi Jian, Bai Min'er, and Mao Xiaofang glanced at each other, and their eyes showed a little surprise, the little girl's bones were so good, Rao was separated by a distance, and the three of them could also feel the aura overflowing from her body. The most surprising thing is that at her young age, her spiritual cultivation is not weak.
"Rosan, pass."
"How did you get through? Didn't you say that there would be footprints on the yellow silk? There's nothing on it. ”
"That's right."
"There is a shady ......," muttered Black Rose anxiously and angrily.
Black Rose, as a relative of the candidate, is qualified to sit and watch the ceremony, Mao Xiaofang heard her words, and couldn't help but say: "Rose girl, if you can't see it yourself, you can say that people are unfair, and after a while, the shrimp will pass the test, and there is nothing on the yellow silk, is there also a shady scene?" ”
"It's fair that the shrimp passes."
"You're smart."
"Hey, mustache, look at you quietly, what a lot of talk."
Mao Xiaofang said: "It's you who talk a lot." ”
"Mustache...... Wow, it's shrimp's turn. Black Rose stood up excitedly.
The shrimp walked past the yellow silk, and the footprints on it were clearer than those of Luo Sang. Hearing the word 'pass', he gave a thumbs up to Black Rose, who shouted excitedly, and Rousanne congratulated Shrimp.
More than half of the children were eliminated in the first level, and the remaining more than ten people entered the second level. Bai Min'er exclaimed: "Gantian Town is really outstanding, there are so many children with cultivation talents. ”
"Intrigued?"
Bai Min'er shook her head and said, "The Microwave Sect does not accept male disciples. ”
Shi Jian said disapprerovingly: "You can send apprentices on behalf of the fax." ”
"Why don't you accept it if you encourage me?"
"I'm afraid that Xiao Fang will blame me for robbing the apprentice with him."
Mao Xiaofang said with a smile: "Shi Daoyou is willing to accept them as apprentices, it is their blessing, how can I blame you." I already have three apprentices, Xiaohai, Ah Chu, and Ah Xiu, Ah Xiu is very talented, enough to inherit the Heavenly Dao Sect, and I don't want to accept any more apprentices. ”
The old man is very bad, believe you. More than 20 years later, if you accept an apprentice, it is called a casual, and the three new apprentices are all white-eyed wolves.
"I don't have the idea of accepting apprentices for the time being, of course, if Xiami and Luo Sang are willing to worship me as a teacher, I can consider it."
Bai Min'er rolled her eyes, "You're beautiful!" ”
Aside from the known, just from the clarity of the footprints on Huang Aya, the range of the spirit child can be roughly locked, either shrimp or Luo Sang.
"In the second level, you stand under the big white umbrella and recite the Buddha's big white umbrella and the Buddha Sutra. In the order just now, one by one. ”
For children with aura in their bodies, the chanting sound will be induced by the big white umbrella overhead, and the more aura there is, the faster the big white umbrella will turn. If the footprints of the shrimp just now are still indistinguishable from those of Luo Sang, then this level is already very clear, when the shrimp is chanting, the big white umbrella on his head turns like a spinning top, whining.
In the second level, half of them were eliminated.
"The third level is to test the breadth of your knowledge of the Buddhist scriptures. I asked each of you three questions, and whoever you shouted answered them, did you hear me clearly? ”
"Hear me."
"What is the Tao? Fish maw you answer. ”
"One yin and one yang is the way."
"There are four major regions, which are the four majors? You answer. ”
"The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is also big."
"Buddhism respects the Three Jewels, which Three Jewels? Rosan, you answer. ”
"Buddha Treasure Dharma Treasure Sangha Treasure ......"
After asking three questions, the only children who participated in the election were Luo Sang and Shrimp. I have to say that Lingtong is indeed talented, he didn't know a single big character before, and he was hacked to memorize Buddhist scriptures for a few days, and he was able to answer three questions correctly. Luo Sang is a hanger, and has been cultivated by Ba Si Pa as a spirit boy since he was a child.
"Shrimp, you're amazing." Black Rose put her hands to her lips and shouted excitedly.
Yu Dachu was surprised: "Shrimp has broken through three levels in a row, which is too surprising. ”
Mao Xiaofang said: "People can't look good, and the sea can't fight, why do you think that shrimp can't break through the three levels?" ”
"I'm just going to tell you a lesson." Yu Dachu muttered.
Atisha stepped forward and saluted Nyingma and Pasipa who were sitting on the high platform: "The regent, the Nyingma, the first three levels have been tested, and there are still two left, Xiami and Luosang, please show the regent." ”
Ba Sipa nodded with a smile and said politely: "Host Nyingma, you will solve the fourth level." ”
"Okay."
Nyingma folded his hands and chanted 'Buddha Amitayus', and when his palms were parted outward, a wall of fire rose from the ground, three zhang wide and three zhang high, with blazing flames and rolling heat, which made the villagers exclaim again and again.
"A true spirit child can pass through the flame unscathed."
After saying that, Nyingma said no more.
Atisha shouted, "Robsan, you come first." ”
Rousanne's parents were very worried, but Rousanne had no fear, folded his hands, and walked slowly into the flame amid exclamations, and walked out from the other side unscathed.
"This little girl......" Bai Min'er stared at Luo Sang with burning eyes, just as Shi Jian said, she was moved. She has high talent, good psychological quality, and she is also practicing Buddhism, which suits her appetite too much.
Talking about Bai Min'er, even Shi Jian couldn't help but compare her with Tian Tian, the two girls are the type of God to eat.
"Ba Si Pa can't do anything else, but the daughter he gave birth to is quite powerful."
"Xiami, it's your turn."
The black rose, who was still cheering for the shrimp just now, changed her original intention at this time and shouted urgently: "Shrimp, don't go in, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood." ”
Shrimp trembled with fear and hesitated. I only heard Luo Sang shouting through the holy fire: "Shrimp, don't be afraid, I'll come here at once, I'll wait for you." ”
"Rosan, I'm afraid ......"
"I believe in you."
"You believe me, I don't believe in myself." Shrimp smiled bitterly in a low voice, feeling that his legs were very weak, and glanced at the anxious black rose, he gritted his teeth and said, "Die, die, fight." Rosan, I'm coming. ”
"Shrimp! You don't want to die, this dead boy. ”
Shrimp rushed into the fire with her eyes closed, screaming and running, and passed through the flame intact, being stopped by Rousanne.
"Shrimp, you succeeded."
Shrimp opened her eyes, looked behind her, and said sluggishly, "I wasn't burned to death?" ”
"Nope."
"The shrimp actually walked over."
"That's amazing."
"Rose, it's very likely that the shrimp is a spirit child."
Black Rose patted her chest and said proudly: "My shrimp is a spirit child." ”
Atisha glanced at the shrimp, his face was a little unpleasant, but he didn't say anything, and received a signal from Pasipa to take the tray from a spiritual disciple. On the tray are placed dharma hats, dharma pieces, bowls, prayer beads and other objects.
"There are things used by the ancestors, the two of you each pick one, one picks, the other doesn't, and the one that picks is the spirit child. Rousanne came first. ”
Rousanne saluted politely, picked and chosen, and held the bowl in his hand. Atisha showed a hint of a smile and said with appreciation: "Yes, the bowl was used by the first saints to transform fate. ”
"Shrimp, you pick."
Shrimp looked around with a disgusted face, grabbed the robe and pulled it, heard the noise, the tray toppled over, all kinds of things fell to the ground, and the robe was caught by Shrimp in his hand.
Atisha glared at the shrimp and said angrily: "The shrimp drew the magic robe that the ancestor once wore. ”
"It's over again."
"There's only one last hurdle left." The villagers were talking.
Shi Jian looked at Ba Si Pa and considered whether to give the spirit bird some benefits and make it disgust the other party. In the original play, the last level was supposed to be selected by the spirit bird, but unfortunately the spirit bird was killed, and Ba Si Pa temporarily changed the test content, and the shrimp failed halfway through.
"Lord Nyingma, this last pass, will you come or will I come?" Phag-pa asked.
"Regent, please."
"Then I'll do it." Ba Si Pa should take it, his eyes moved back and forth on Luo Sang and Shrimp, his eyes were warm and slightly apologetic when he looked at Luo Sang, and his eyes flashed with complicated killing intent when he looked at Shrimp, and he said loudly: "The real spirit child, step on the lotus flower and climb the lotus!" ”
"Prajna Nine Heavens!"
Ba Sipa's hands were sealed, and the spiritual power of the Dao Dao flowed in his fingertips, pointing out in front of him, only to see a ball of golden light emerging from the ground, and a cyan lotus platform appeared in the golden light. Then he separated his hands, like a goddess scattering flowers, and one by one the long-stemmed lotus flowers flew out of thin air, poofed and inserted on the ground, lined up in two columns, from low to high, connecting the lotus platform.
"Did you change that?" Shi Jian's eyes flashed, a little surprised, but not particularly surprised, the spirit bird was too close to him, it was indeed impossible for Ba Si Pa and Nyingma to let it decide the choice of the spirit child, "Poor bird, this is abandoned by others." ”
In fact, the spirit bird did not recognize Shi Jian as the master, this guy stayed by his side, first, he sensed his kindness, and secondly, he was greedy, which was also the main reason.
"Luosang, shrimp, if you don't board the lotus platform at this time, when will you stay?"
Ba Si Pa shouted loudly, like an initiation, Luo Sang and Xia Mi reacted, and almost at the same time, they jumped up, stepped on the lotus, and ran to the lotus platform.
Looking at the speed, Rousanne took the lead and was later overtaken by shrimp. Looking at the lotus platform that was getting closer and closer, Shrimp suddenly woke up, and secretly said: I am a spirit boy when I climb the lotus platform, what shrine is the spirit child going to, chanting and eating fast every day, and keeping the rules and precepts, I will never see Sister Gui again.
Distracting thoughts, distractions, and confusion, Shrimp couldn't help but slow down, and then Yu Guang caught a glimpse of a figure sweeping forward, in a hurry, and in a hurry, he stepped on the air, belched and fell to the ground.
"Alas!"
"Just a little bit." Black Rose was disappointed and angry.
"This ......"
Atisha and Shamon turned their heads to look at Paspa, who had straight eyes and didn't seem to react from the accident of the shrimp's misstep. The conscience of heaven and earth, he really didn't do anything, he really wanted Xiami to be a spirit child.
"Buddha Amitayus!" Nyingma clasped her hands together, a hint of helplessness appeared in her eyes, and she said faintly: "You haven't opened your mind yet." ”
"It's a pity." Mao Xiaofang said regretfully.
Shi Jian said meaningfully: "When faced with a major decision in life, you need to have great courage to make a choice, and Xiami is not ready. ”
Anyone with a little eyesight can see that Shrimp hesitated at the last moment, otherwise he would have climbed the lotus platform first.
Pasipa was the first to react, got up, and then knelt on the ground, "See the sect leader." ”
"See the Master!"
Atisha, Shamon and the others woke up from a dream and immediately fell to their knees.
"How is this going to be done?" Bai Min'er asked Shi Jian.
Atisha couldn't help but ask Paspa: "Presiding Regent, if the Heavenly Boy comes, Luosang will be in danger, what should I do now?" ”
In the ancestral hall, Phags-pa looked out the window, half-speechless, and suddenly asked Atisha and Shamon who were puzzled: "What was he thinking at that time?" ”
"Stinky boy, you are really not angry, just one step, one step, you will ascend the lotus platform and become a spirit child. Alas, I'm really angry with you, I can't figure out what your little head thinks all day? "Black Rose hates that iron doesn't make steel.
Shrimp smiled and said, "I think Sister Gui, if you become a spirit child, you won't be able to stay by your side." ”
Black Rose was silent for a moment and asked, "I was thinking about this at that time?" ”
"yes."
"Hmph, think well, our rice shop is gone?"
Shrimp said inexplicably: "What does it have to do with me when the rice shop is gone?" By the way, how could the rice shop be gone? Oh, you're gambling again? ”
"I'll bet you on a spirit child."
At the Lingtong Debate Conference, Xiami stumbled, disrupting many people's plans, but Shi Jian sat firmly on Diaoyutai, and he was sure that Pasipa would do something to Xiami, because he was a real Lingtong.
When the spirit child finds his true self and opens his mind to comprehend his previous life, the fake spirit child of Luo Sang will be easily debunked. Phags-pa knew very well how fast the spirit child had grown up, and he would never leave this confidant in trouble.
It's up to whoever can't help it first.
The next day, Phagspa, Atisha and others welcomed Lobsang back to the shrine, and Nyingma's whereabouts were unknown.
At dusk, the group settled in the wilderness, the lights in the felt tent were bright, and Paspa and Lobsang sat opposite each other, one lectured, one listened to the scriptures, one spoke seriously, and the other listened seriously. Paspa's eyes were kind, and Luo Sang also felt a strange sense of intimacy from the other party.
"Grand Host of Phag-Pa!" Rousanne interrupted.
Phags-pa asked, "What's the matter, don't you understand?" ”
"I have a question for you."
"You ask."
"Have I seen you, you give me a very kind feeling."
Ba Si Pa smiled: "Yuan! ”
"Fate?"
"It's not early, let's rest, we have to hurry tomorrow."
"Hmm."
Luo Sang was lying on the bed, and Ba Si Pa helped her tuck the quilt, and patted her forehead with his palm, and Luo Sang immediately fell asleep.
Suddenly, the lights went out, the tent was dark, and a terrible shadow rose from the ground, and the blood light spread, as if the entire tent had become a world of blood.
"It's a very warm picture, and people are reluctant to destroy it." The Shadow laughed.
Pas-pa was calm, folded his hands, looked at each other and said, "Buddha Amitayus." I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”
"Waiting for me to kill you?"
Ba Si Pa said lightly: "I killed the former Spirit Sect Master. ”
"What?" Reverse Tiantong was surprised.
"Ten years ago, I committed adultery and gave birth to a daughter, who was the newly elected spirit child, the new leader of the Spirit Sect."
Reverse Tiantong was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Interesting, funny, so funny!" I was suddenly reluctant to kill you, for the sake of you letting me out, say, what do you want? ”
Pas-pa said coldly: "Kill the real spirit child, and send his soul into the animal path, and he will never be able to be a human being." ”
