Chapter 237: The Hall of the Great Hero
At the moment when Di Yun stepped into the woods, the scene changed dramatically, and the fog that had originally filled the jungle suddenly dispersed, revealing the scene inside the woods.
I saw that all the trees in the woods had disappeared, and what appeared in front of him was an eerie and terrifying Shura ghost.
From the outside, there are countless black iron pillars inside, and under each iron pillar there are several hideous-looking ghosts, and on the top of the iron pillar, there is a soul covered in scales.
At the base of the iron pillar, whether it was fire, or thunder, or scourging, all kinds of punishments were used on the bodies of these spirits, and the whole ghost was full of painful wails.
Seeing this, Di Yun's heart couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't expect that there would be such a scene inside Buzhou Mountain. A hint of hesitation flashed across his face, not knowing whether he should continue to move forward.
At this moment, a cyan light flew out from the depths of the ghost, and the speed of this cyan light was extremely fast, and Di Yun had already flown in front of his eyes as soon as he saw it. The blue light disappeared, revealing what was inside, and it was a slowly rotating cyan lotus. This lotus flower has a total of seven petals, each showing seven colors of light, although these petals have different lights, but they are all crystal clear, like jade but not jade.
The cyan lotus flower spun around Di Yun's chest for a moment, floated a few times, and then flew towards the inside of the ghost snake, flew out a few feet and then stopped in place. Di Yun's heart moved, and he took a few steps forward, and the cyan lotus also flew forward a little. Then he stopped, and Lotus stopped. Seeing this scene, Di Yun's heart suddenly realized that this lotus flower seemed to be specially guided for himself.
Looking up at the Buzhou Mountain, Di Yun walked inside. After a few moments, he walked in front of the first iron pillar, because it was extremely dark, and he didn't see until he got close a few lines of small characters carved on the top of the iron pillar, and looked at it intently. I saw two words written on the top, quit greed. The following lines of small characters read: Huang Bao, greedy by nature, murdered his uncle for three acres of thin fields, and then abandoned his wife for glory and wealth, threw himself into a wealthy family, and was sentenced to 9,000 years of whipping to set an example!
Just as Di Yun had just finished reading these words, a black light flashed, directly hitting the body of the soul hanging from the iron pillar. This soul is a spirit body. But under this black light, a scar was drawn alive. Suddenly, the soul's mouth opened wide, and a miserable wail sounded.
This wail almost resounded throughout the ghost, and even Di Yun was startled. After reading those few lines of small words again, Di Yun muttered: "Although this person is hateful, but for the injustice of his previous life, he actually has to be whipped for nine thousand years, and this punishment is not severe. ”
Shaking his head, Di Yun continued to walk inside, the cyan lotus still guiding his path a few feet in front of him.
I walked a distance of more than ten feet. Qinglian stopped in front of an iron pillar. Di Yun looked at it again, only to see a few lines of small words written on it: Quit killing! Yang Sen, born as a butcher, is bloodthirsty by nature. After cultivating, he took pleasure in killing people, and the sin was unforgivable, and he was sentenced to the punishment of 10,000 years of ice thorns. Set an example!
When Di Yun saw this, he was shocked, and he wanted to say murder. Almost all cultivators are stained with the blood of others. But on the way to cultivation, you will go against the sky, if you don't kill people, people will kill you, this word is not easy to say. The man's punishment was somewhat unjust.
Shaking his head, he continued inside. Along the way, a few lines of small characters were engraved on each iron pillar, abstaining from prostitution, anger, and resentment...... As Di Yun walked, he felt the meaning of these words. Every iron pillar is a life, and every life is a reincarnation. When they were born, some people were in power, some were rich enough to rival the country, some had wives and concubines, and some were profound. But when they die, it seems that they all return to this Shura ghost and accept the punishment to forgive their sins in the previous life. After the torture is completed, he rejoins the six realms of reincarnation and starts a new life again.
I don't know how long it took to walk, Di Yun finally came to the end of the ghost, there, he looked back again, looked at the countless iron pillars behind him, and suddenly felt a bitterness in his heart. It turns out that when he was in the world, he had to endure so much suffering, and when he thought about it, from his own cultivation to the present, the pain of losing his father, the sorrow of leaving his mother, the pain of lovesickness, and the thoughts of revenge have whipped his heart and destroyed his will all the time. Although he survived it all with strong faith, there was still a lot of work for him to accomplish.
At this time, the blue lotus in front of him shone brightly, and a vague figure walked out from the middle, and said to Di Yun: "Di Yun, your life is too miserable, why don't I take you and enjoy a happy life, so that you can experience the supreme happiness in the world." ”
Di Yun felt that his sea of consciousness was shocked, and muttered, "Okay, you can take me there." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, a dazzling light flashed in front of his eyes, and the scene suddenly changed, and he was already in a luxurious palace. The palace was holding a banquet, and Di Yun clearly saw that he was wearing a golden crown and gorgeous clothes, surrounded by wine and beautiful women, and many courtiers in the audience were bowing to him. He could feel that he could control the life and death of these people with a raised hand, this feeling was wonderful.
But when the banquet was over and he walked to the harem, he found that his favorite concubine and his favorite minister were kissing me and me in a side hall. In a fit of rage, he raised his knife and hacked the two to death, and although his beloved concubine pleaded hard, it still did not change the outcome.
In the end, as a generation of kings, he died depressed, and at the end of his life, he couldn't help but roar: "Even if they have the world, they are all deceiving themselves, all of them are deceiving themselves......"
At this time, the voice sounded again: "Come on, there is more wonderful ......"
The scene changed again, Di Yun has become the number one swordsman in the world, standing on a cloud platform, holding a long sword in his hand, looking at all beings. Between the waves, the four sides moved, and the sky fell apart. But when he reached the top of the world, he spent his whole life seeking defeat but could not get it, and finally ended up depressed and sighed inexplicably.
......
Scene after scene changed, and he ended up depressed again and again, Di Yun's heart understood that he was experiencing the past life of those souls who were tied to iron pillars. But every time the scene changes, it brings him an inexplicable pain. In a trance, he felt that his Dao heart was burning, and his divine soul was disappearing little by little.
However, at this moment, the Bodhi stick behind Di Yun was glowing with a trace of golden light, and as soon as this golden light appeared, it wrapped Di Yun in its entirety. From the outside, this golden light is the golden Arhat that Di Yun conjured up when he used the Seven Transformations of the God Emperor, the golden Arhat just appeared, and he shouted at Di Yun who had his eyes closed: "Idiot, wake up, wake up!"
With a sound of its cuffing, Di Yun's spiritual platform suddenly opened his eyes and woke up as if he had been shaken. Looking at the Shura ghost in front of him, Di Yun's whole body was soaked in cold sweat, and he secretly said in his heart that it was dangerous. If he hadn't been forcibly summoned just now, I'm afraid he would have fallen into this boundless reincarnation, and it wouldn't be long before he died.
It's just that why the Bodhi stick behind him will automatically condense the phantom of the golden-bodied Arhat, which makes him puzzled. After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't have a clue, so I had to shake my head and continue to walk forward.
Just as he stepped out of the Shura Ghost Snake, he saw that the cyan lotus flower that was originally flying in front of him suddenly burst into flames, shaking his eyes so much that he couldn't open them.
When Di Yun opened his eyes again, he was already in a square, and a majestic hall was standing at the front of the square, and in front of the main hall, a huge incense burner about ten feet high was emitting light smoke.
Di Yun was stunned for a moment, walked forward, bypassed the incense burner, walked to the front of the main hall, looked up, and saw four big characters written on the plaque of the main hall: Daxiong Treasure Hall.
His mind was full of doubts, and he couldn't understand why this hall was called that name. But the green lotus that had been guiding him had disappeared, so he thought about it and had to walk towards the hall by himself.
As soon as I entered the main hall, I saw three huge statues in the middle of the main hall. The statue in the middle is kind-eyed, holding a strange gesture in his hand, and in front of the statue is a golden plaque that reads: Shakyamuni Buddha, and on both sides of the statue in the middle, there are two other statues, and there is also a golden plaque in front of it, which reads Medicine Buddha and Amitabha Buddha respectively.
Di Yun's heart was stunned, full of doubts. Since he was a monk, he has never heard of such a strange name, and the appearance and name of this statue seem to be inseparable from the Buddhist sect he had heard of before. But just when he had this doubt, the huge statue in the middle flashed with golden light, enveloping Di Yun in the middle.
Suddenly, Di Yun felt the Sanskrit sound in his ears, the Buddha music fluttered, and a word came from the mouth of the statue to his ears: "Life in the world is like being in the midst of thorns, the heart does not move, people do not move, and if they do not move, they do not hurt; But then all kinds of suffering, all things are vain, the body is vain, and the Tao is vain. Those who enter our Buddha sect must have the heart of supreme bodhi. In order to solve suffering, go to the Pure Land, and become a Buddha. And we should have great compassion for all sentient beings, and vow to save them from the suffering of reincarnation and birth, and then we should make great wishes, and according to the four vows, we should make a great wish to attain the supreme bodhi heart......" (Note: (1))
Listening to these words, Di Yun faintly felt as if he had heard these words somewhere, but he couldn't remember them. At this moment, all the Sanskrit sounds and Buddha music suddenly disappeared, and a figure appeared in front of Di Yun......
