Chapter 020: The Nine-Colored Lotus Blossoms

Just when the square was chaotic, I suddenly heard someone chanting: "Nan Wu Great Wish Dizang King Bodhisattva!" The sound resounded throughout the audience, hovering over everyone's heads for a long time.

Everyone looked up and saw a monk in his late sixties, wearing a red robe, walking out of the foyer. More voices on the field shouted in unison: "Abbot! ”

Zong Gen, Zong Shao and the others also hurriedly greeted them, bowed down and saluted, "Master! The monk in the red robe walked to the stage and said to Guangjing: "Guanglin has seen Senior Brother Guangjing!" ”

Guangjing looked up to the sky and laughed: "Senior Brother Guanglin, you are finally willing to come out!" "Senior brother, please forgive me, Guanglin came out of retreat two months ago because he didn't know anything." "What is the matter with the junior brother?" "Guanglin doesn't know, why was the nine-colored lotus born at this time?" When everyone in the audience heard this, they immediately became a sensation again, and even the abbot said that the nine-colored lotus was born, it seems that the rumors are true, and it is not in vain to wait for so long.

"Nan no Great Wish Jizo King Bodhisattva!" With a low recitation, the audience returned to calm, and Guangjing then asked, "Then the junior brother can understand now?" ”

"Senior brother, the Buddhist scriptures record that the Bodhisattva of Jizo came here from Xijiuhua with five-colored lotus seeds, and then the lotus seeds did not know where to go, only said that he had dreamed of a big lake, and the lotus flowers blooming in the lake were nine-colored, and they were brilliant, so this lotus was called the nine-colored lotus." Guanglin said this, and pointed to the surrounding peaks with his hand, "More than seven months ago, this Nine Peaks suddenly shined, and everyone speculated that a nine-colored lotus flower would be born, I took a closer look, and it was true!" ......'The sun is gone, who will keep the dream?' The nine-colored lotus opens, and the green bamboo and red maple are opened. 'Senior brother, you must have not forgotten this, right? Guangjing nodded, but he was shocked.

Guanglin continued: "I was in retreat for two months, and I suddenly realized that the birth of the nine-colored lotus must be related to the Falling Sun......

Guangjing was shocked: "The Falling Sun Gong appeared in my Liumeng River Valley twenty-one years ago, but he didn't know where to go, could it be that he was born now?" Although he was frightened, his face did not change, and he said, "Senior Brother Guanglin, I don't know if the two are related. I only know that this nine-colored lotus flower was born from my Gushi five-colored lotus seed, and I hope that my junior brother can let me bring it back. ”

Guanglin shook his head: "The Bodhisattva brought it back then, it has the intention of the Bodhisattva, senior brother, why do you insist on the ownership of the nine-colored lotus?" ”

Guangjing sneered: "Senior brother said it nicely, if you are really not stubborn, then I will take away the nine-colored lotus." The heroes present must all understand that I Gushi Jiuhua is not snatching, but just taking back my own things. ”

"Senior Brother Guangjing, in the past six months, when the weather is fine, there has been a flash of spiritual light at the Nine Sons Summit, and the other beads are not abnormal. May I ask Senior Brother, if it weren't for Qingyang Jiuzi Peak, how could there be a nine-colored lotus? ”

"Well said junior brother! Since you have the Nine Peaks, then I think there will be another Nine Colored Lotus, why don't you let it now? …… That's it! It is useless for you and me to say more, the heroes of the world present can be a witness, today you and I will divide the victory and defeat under the fists and feet, and the winner has a nine-colored lotus. ”

In addition to most of the people present who came to see the excitement, there were also some people who tried to snatch the nine-colored lotus, but they saw that Guangjing had defeated the big idiot Daoist with one move just now, and there were hundreds of disciples under him who were eyeing him, and if he made a rash move, he would definitely not be able to get any benefits, so he simply let it mess up, and maybe he could get some benefits from it. At that moment, everyone on the field, except for the disciples of Jiuhua East Sect, all applauded.

Guanglin knew that this matter could not be good, although he had nearly 10,000 disciples, but he could not rush forward, otherwise it would only lose the face of Dongzong if it attracted public anger. Zong Gen and Zong Shao shouted at the same time: "Master, let me come and receive the teachings of my uncle!" ”

"You two must not be rude." Guanglin reprimanded, and then folded with Guangjing, "You and I were born from the same root, if the senior brother insists on this, then I will come to meet the senior brother's 'release palm'." "As you wish!"

In Zhu Zhi's room, the little monk Daofeng had already run out and run in several times, and Wang Hou teased: "Little master, why can't you sit still, where do you look like a high-ranking monk?" ”

Dao Feng muttered: "Donor, you don't know, I can be tired these days, when will these people leave, I can be stable" Before he finished speaking, he took a sip of tea and ran towards the temple again.

The effort was not great, Dao Feng ran in and shouted: "Oh no, no, the old monk Guangjing and the others have fought, and the big idiot Daoist in Lushan has been injured." ”

Zhou Qingzhu's face turned pale with fright, and Wang Hou exclaimed, "Little monk, take us to have a look." Liu Hanyan hurriedly ran out with Zhou Qingzhu in his arms, Dao Feng led the way in front, and Zhu Zhi followed behind.

When I entered Huacheng Temple, I saw that the square was crowded, and the two old monks on the stage were talking about something, and they didn't have the heart to listen carefully, so they followed the little monk around to the front. At this time, the Great Idiot Daoist had already been supported to sit down in a clearing on the left side of the front, his face pale.

Zhou Qingzhu cried when he saw this. Wang Hou looked at Zhang Qingling nervously: "What's wrong with the Dao Chief?" Zhang Qingling shook his head and did not answer, his face was full of worry and grief.

On the stage, Guangjing had already put his left hand together and pointed to Guanglin, and his right hand turned into a palm and stood in front of his chest. Guanglin also had a solemn face, his right hand stretched forward, and the tip of his index finger came out, which was the gesture of "Huacheng Finger".

"Yan Hua Sutra" records, according to legend, Sakyamuni and a little monk went to the countryside to preach, to Jiuhua Mountain when the mountain road is heavily blocked, it is difficult to walk, the little monk is tired and hungry to sit on the ground and do not move, the Buddha pointed forward: "There is a city in front, go to the fast quickly." The little monk looked up, and when he saw a city, he immediately ran to the city with excitement, and this city was actually made by the Buddha. In the early years of Tang Zhide (756 years), the squire built a temple here, because it is located in the high mountains and flat land, surrounded by mountains such as a city, so it is named Huacheng Temple. "Huacheng Finger" is created by the little monk who followed the Buddha in those years, and between the snap of his fingers, the finger wind is agitated, such as the spread of waves, and the illusion is numerous.

Two months ago, Guanglin heard that many disciples of the Western Sect had come down from the mountain, and guessed that Jiu Guangjing might come at the beginning of the fifth month, but he knew that he was not his opponent, so he chose to retreat and refine the city finger.

The two on the stage confronted each other for a moment, and Guangjing suddenly shouted: "Release the palm!" Guanglin shouted at the same time: "Huacheng finger!" The two forces collided, and with a bang, the strong wind only blew the faces of everyone in the front row. The two pointed to each other and fought more than 300 moves, but it was still difficult to distinguish the winner. Guangjing suddenly turned his right palm, put his fingers together, and put his hands out together, shouting: "Release the reincarnation!" Two finger winds burst out, one of which collided with Guanglin's finger wind, and the other swirled behind Guanglin, only to hear Guanglin's muffled snort, and the blood in his chest spurted like an arrow!

Guangjing looked proud: "Reincarnation, life is death in front of you, and death is life behind you...... Guanglin, you lost! The disciples of the Western Sect did not applaud at this time, they could only be secretly proud in their hearts when they saw the fire in the eyes of many disciples of the Eastern Sect.

Guanglin fell on the stage, and Zonggen and other disciples jumped up and called out around the master. Guanglin** said: "Help me in...... Here, let him go, call the disciples of the Eastern Sect...... Don't cause trouble...... "Zonggen and the others didn't dare to be disobedient and carried him to the apse.

The field suddenly quieted down, and Zhuang Zhaoxue suddenly shouted angrily: "You dare to poison ......" Everyone on the field followed the sound, and saw that on the left side of the front row, among the dozen or so people who were originally around the big idiot, except for a young man in white who was still standing, the rest fell to the ground.

One person shouted: "I want the world to know, anger my Tianjing Gang, this is the end." It turned out that Yang Shoufa, the leader of the Tianjing Gang, had been secretly paying attention to the big idiot and others, and when he saw that he was injured and fell to the ground, and the monk could not heal him, everyone on the field watched the fight on the stage, and quietly ordered his subordinates to approach, and released smoke, which contained strong toxicity, and suddenly Liu Zhaohui and others fainted to the ground, and even Master Wu sat down and closed his eyes.

Hearing Zhuang Zhaoxue's angry shouts, Wang Hou knew that it was not good, but he didn't know how to save everyone, so he only heard Zhuang Zhaoxue say intermittently: "Bottle...... Blue and white ......"

Wang Hou hurriedly stepped forward to open her baggage, there were several bottles in it, fortunately there was only one blue and white vase, took out the palm-sized bottle, pulled out the cork, and there was a faint fragrance in it, but he didn't know how to use it.

Don't let the monk spit out, "Bring it." Wang Hou hurriedly handed the bottle over, and the monk lowered his head and sniffed it, the fragrance entered the body, and the poisonous gas in the body was resolved; One by one, the bottles were placed under everyone's noses, and after a while, everyone slowly woke up, turned back and looked for the person who applied the poison, and there was no trace of him.

Liu Zhaohui gritted his teeth and said: "The Tianjing Gang is really shameless. Liu Hanyan also said angrily: "Brother, when we return to Tongling, we must take his lair......

Zhuang Zhaoxue asked, "Hey, Wang Gongzi, why haven't you been poisoned?" Wang Hou himself was also wondering, and said secretly: "Could it be that the whitebait in Wang Qiao's cave has the effect of detoxification?" Or a hot spring in a cave? I didn't know how to answer for a while, so I shook my head and said, "I don't know either." ”

Zhu Zhi's physique was better than the others, and he was already fine at this time, helped the little monk up, and asked with concern, "Daofeng, how are you?" Dao Feng replied weakly: "My head is still a little dizzy...... Wang Hou helped Dao Feng, and seeing that he was just weak and fine, he teased: "Little master, did you steal wine and drink?" At that moment, the sky suddenly lit up.

Jiuhua Mountain is dominated by peaks, the mountain is rugged and rugged, there are ninety-nine peaks in total, among which the nine peaks such as Tiantai are the most majestic. During the Tang Tianbao period, the poet immortal Li Bai had visited Jiuhua Mountain several times, saw the beauty of this mountain, the nine peaks were like lotus flowers, touched the scene and sang loudly: "In the past, on the Jiujiang River, looking at Jiuhua Peak from afar. The Tianhe hangs green water, showing off the nine hibiscus. I want to wave my hand, who can follow? Jun is the host, and he lies in the cloud pine. ”

Huacheng Temple is built in the group of peaks, usually the sunrise, sunset, sea of clouds, rime, snow hail, Buddha light and other celestial wonders are not rare. At this time, just after the time of Shen, the sun was slanting to the west, and everyone saw that the sky was leisurely bright, and they all looked up, only to see that the nine peaks of Tiantai, Tianzhu, Ten Kings, Lotus, Arhat, Duxiu, Hibiscus, Wulao, and Fuhu emitted red, orange, yellow, green, green, blue, purple, white, and black nine colors of light, and there was a cloud in the middle that was rendered colorful by nine colors. The cloud, the size of a tabletop, slowly swirled and floated downward under the gaze of the crowd.

"Nine-colored lotus!" Someone shouted. Everyone on the field was stunned, it turned out that the nine-colored lotus was not a true lotus, but this nine-colored cloud?

As the clouds slowly descended, everyone gradually saw that the clouds looked like lotus flowers, and the nine colors merged! The colorful clouds floated into the air and fell towards the crescent-shaped release pool in the center of the square, and everyone frantically squeezed towards the edge of the pool, no longer caring about the coercion issued by Guangjing before. Twenty zhang away from the release pond, the nine-colored cloud stopped again and no longer descended.

Dao Feng leaned on Wang Hou and muttered: "I want it, the nine-colored lotus flower is my Jiuhua thing, and I can't let people take it ......away" Wang Hou turned his head to look at Dao Feng, only to see his eyes looking straight into the air, as if he was stupid.
