Chapter 134: Strange Temples and Nine-Character Mantras
When Tang Muzhi proposed to visit the temple halfway up the mountain, Ding Daoan and Tu Junfang lit a bonfire in the misty forest.
"I haven't eaten in two days." Ding explained that he had at some point added a skinned rabbit and a scaled river fish.
"I wasn't in the mood to eat it before." Tu Junfang was a little embarrassed and said, "Can you leave a little detoxification powder?" It's bad if you get poisoned again. ”
Tang Muzhi looked at the poor elephant girl who was tied to the temple gate in the distance, and he simply found a dry place to sit down.
"Leave a rabbit head for my dog, I'm going to eat a rabbit leg."
"Small." Ding Dao'an took out a very modern yellow silk cloth, which was embroidered with red thread: "The heavens are swaying, and my Tao is prosperous." He took out a few pieces of yellow talisman paper from it and threw them in the fire, in Tang Muzhi's feeling, a warm Qi came out of the flames, and the food was instantly wrapped and evenly heated, and the dripping rain in the sky evaporated directly before it touched the surface of the food.
Tang Muzhi was still a little curious, and his heart said that Ding Dao'an really had a lot to do with the Daomen, and the embroidery on the silk cloth just now was the famous sentence in the "Crossing People Sutra" ("Taishang Cave Xuanling Treasure Immeasurable Human Superior Wonderful Sutra"). "What kind of charm is this?" Tang Muzhi asked. He was lonely and unheard, although he had read the book "Maoshan Talisman Secret Method" and knew that there were many talismans in the Daomen, but he didn't seem to have seen any talismans with heating and ignition.
Tu Junfang explained: "It's normal for you not to know that this talisman comes from a small branch of the Shenxiao Sect, and it is a single line...... Of course, Lao Ding is not the inheritor, but he has some relationship with that family, and this 'Wang Shi Fu' was obtained from him. ”
Sitting next to the bonfire at night, the fire flickered, and everyone's faces flickered, Ding Dao'an stared at the rabbit expressionlessly while the roasted rabbit was bubbling with oil, and he added: "This 'Wang Shi' refers to Wang Zihua of the Tang Dynasty, who cultivated under Zhu Rongfeng in Nanyue for nine years, and was later preached and promoted by the 'Grandma Erxian'...... Before he didn't cultivate, there was a classmate named Yan Zhenqing. ”
Tang Muzhi nodded, he didn't expect that this little talisman also originated from a person like the fire master Wang Zhenjun, it is said that this Wang Zihua is still the ancestor of the teaching, these Tang Muzhi is not very clear, he is not a person from the Daomen.
As for the name of this "Erxian Grandma", the name of this immortal is Wei Huacun, it is she who founded the Shangqing School and wrote the "Huang Ting Jing" and other works...... People also called her "Mrs. Wei".
After a while, the rabbit was roasted, Tu Junfang took the rabbit meat, actually took out a bottle of red wine from his arms, and told Tang Muzhi and Ding Daoan that it was snatched from foreigners, and then drank it alone, which made Tang Muzhi envious.
When he was full of wine and food, it was natural that it was time to do his business, there was no hallucinogenic poison on the rabbit meat, Tang Muzhi was about to walk towards the temple on the mountain, but Ding Daoan stopped him behind him.
"Pastikyuki."
Tang Muzhi turned his head to look at him, Ding Daoan stared at him, and a strong battle intent erupted in his eyes.
"Let's have a fight...... Right now, right here! ”
Ding Daoan turned sideways to face Tang Muzhi, and he was already ready to fight. "I didn't tell you that I'm interested in your innate abilities...... There is one thing I didn't do very kindly, when you stayed in the Lu family, I specially investigated for a period of time - you are a disciple of the inner sect of the Tang Sect, but you only officially joined the Tang Sect at the end of last year. ”
Ding Daoan stood still and didn't move, and a faint wave of Qi was transmitted from under his feet to all directions, "It hasn't been long since Qi refining, right?" Your physical fitness is not comparable to many internal masters, which makes me particularly concerned...... I didn't have a chance in the Lu family last time, so please give me advice now! ”
The light purple rain fell on the three of them, emitting a resolute and upright momentum from Ding Dao'an, he paced in front of Tang Muzhi, the distance of each step was exactly the same, his eyes did not leave Tang Muzhi's hands, Tang Muzhi also always paid attention to his steps.
Ding Dao'an's footwork is not only extremely fast, but also frightening the rhythm that will not change when Mount Tai is overwhelmed, his steps are as vigorous as a wild horse, and as unpredictable as a soaring dragon.
Tang Muzhi had no intention of discussing with him at this time, he thought about it carefully, and understood that most of this information was told to him by Bi Yuan, and seeing Ding Dao'an like this, I am afraid that he also knows about the fact that his body has reached the level of refining Qi and transforming gods.
If Ding Dao'an is just a winner or too curious, Tang Muzhi will definitely persuade him to take away the "six hearts", take off his shoes and flow into the river in the future, hang the seal and look back, and it will be easier to witness the supreme realm of martial arts, but Ding Dao'an's problem is more complicated, he is a human being, like an island trapped in the sea, insecure, and at the same time, he is also a more pure martial idiot than Na Ruhu and others, his nature is like this, it is useless to persuade him, and now he can only delay and delay.
"Hey...... This, Brother Ding, it's important now, after this matter is over, you are welcome to come to our Tangmen as a guest. ”
Although Tang Muzhi still retains a lot of means of communication as an assassin, if he fights with Ding Dao'an, it is normal for the two of them to hang up some color, and it is still important to solve those Gu masters now.
Ding Dao'an's figure froze, he was silent for a moment, and finally nodded and removed the posture, and then he made a fist with his right hand, wrapped his left hand into a palm on his right fist, pressed his left thumb on the tiger's mouth of his right hand, and pressed his right thumb on his left thumb to Tang Muzhi's fist.
Now he hasn't joined the whole sex, and the other party must agree to exchange ideas, otherwise he will deliberately get along with others and pull hatred.
This was the case before, and he offended many heroes in the rivers and lakes, but now it is difficult to move an inch in many places...... But it was a price he felt he could pay.
And this matter is not out of the way, anyway, it is idle now, it is better to go to Tangmen to worship the mountain gate after finishing the matter, and have a look.
Tu Junfang felt a little regretful in his heart, he was still very curious about why Tang Muzhi's three corpses were not hooked out, maybe they were temporarily suppressed, but they would be released as soon as there was a fight.
The three of them hurried to the temple, and when the elephant girl saw Tang Muzhi coming, she screamed excitedly.
"I'll untie it, the dog doesn't seem to have seen it in this place." Tu Junfang is a friend of animals, and he reached out to untie the dog leash with a big thorn.
"Wait." Tang Muzhi first observed it with his flesh eyes and confirmed that the elephant girl's life magnetic field was not abnormal, and then let it go.
The methods of Gu masters are ever-changing, and Tang Muzhi also has to guard against it, he estimates that the hallucinogenic poisonous rain that is falling from the sky now is also indispensable to this group of Gu masters.
"These Gu are probably raised from the Gu Cup...... Tang Muzhi thought about it, the Gu Cup is a holy weapon in Qinghe Village, and it is a magic weapon used to assist in Gu refining, maybe the enemy is refining all kinds of strange Gu worms through the Gu Cup to deal with them.
After confirming that it was correct, Tu Junfang let go of the elephant girl, kept stroking its dog's head, and asked, "You were born and died with a dog?" ”
Tang Muzhi shook his head a little funny, "This is a companion of mine, she is a beastmaster." ”
After a full meal of the roasted rabbit head, the elephant girl barked at the temple gate, saying that she would not go in.
At this time, Tang Muzhi and the three of them had just opened the temple door, and there was a musty smell in the temple - it was not accurate to say this, it was probably a special smell that only existed in the ancestral hall, and the source was unknown.
The exterior wall of the ancient temple is made of gray and white cement bricks, thinking that it is a newly built temple, but perhaps because the air here is humid, often accompanied by heavy rain, the gray exterior wall has looked dilapidated, the three of them took advantage of the night to look carefully, and found that some walls are still engraved with words!
"Bingshe opens the Jia tent to Ying, wantonly sets up a seat, drums, blows sheng, ascends to the ranks, and turns to doubt the star - this seems to be "Thousand Character Text"?" Tang Muzhi said strangely.
"Thousand Character Text" is a rhyme compiled by a person named Zhou Xingsi during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, which is exactly 1,000 words, and is one of the three major readings of traditional Mongolian studies.
The passage just now - Bingshe is next to the opening, and the first tent is against the Ying. Wantonly set up seats, drums and sheng. Ascend to the rank of Na Majesty, and turn to the doubtful star. It is a sentence describing the magnificence of the palace and the officials pushing the cups and changing the lamps, and it is very peculiar to see these words on the border of Myanmar.
"There are words here, too." Tu Junfang gestured to the two, these handwriting are all from the same person's handwriting, the seal is not so beautiful, but it is very clear, and it is also deeply engraved, and there are traces of smoke around it.
"Ananda. Rare person. Faith and respect in the Three Jewels are also hard to come by. It is difficult to hear that the world-honored pharmacist Liuliguang is famous. Ananda. His medicine master glazed light is like an immeasurable bodhisattva. Immeasurably ingenious and convenient. Immeasurable wishes. If I am a catastrophe, if I am a catastrophe, I will speak widely......" Tang Muzhi recalled carefully for a while, and said firmly: "This is the Medicine Master Sutra again, a classic praising Medicine Buddha. ”
In addition to traditional texts such as Buddhist scriptures and Taoist collections, there are also fragments of Xiangjiang writers, etc., which seem to have been engraved by someone by hand, which has no practical significance.
"Waste of time." Tu Junfang said dissatisfied.
Most of the texts here Tang Muzhi and Ding Dao'an know each other, but he, a disciple from a traditional Taoist sect, is familiar with the "Seven Signatures of the Cloud Pipe" by his patriarch Zhang Junfang, and he has not even read the "Qinghe Inner Biography", let alone those Buddhist scriptures that are out of the way; And Tang Muzhi and Ding Dao'an, an assassin and a martial idiot, these two people are involved in a wide range of things, and they can tell the source of anything.
"It's quite extensive, but the words are ugly." Tang Muzhi complained ruthlessly.
When he has nothing to do in this life, he just writes and paints. Practicing calligraphy he loves "thin gold body", practicing painting he especially loves to paint horses, last year in the Lu family tasted a lot of celebrity calligraphy and painting, a period of time after a little longer vision.
"Let's go inside." Ding Daoan rubbed his eyes, looking at these things through the moonlight or Qi light is really a bit of a waste of eyes.
Tang Muzhi pushed open the inner door, this temple is really full of strangeness, neither sitting in the north and facing south layout, there is no Buddha statue in the main hall, there are some flowers and green murals around the lake, only a slightly clearer, like the image of "big black sky", six arms and three eyes, the walls in all directions are covered with a thick layer of black ash, empty and cold.
What's even more peculiar is that the entire hall is empty, but there is a large reddish-brown coffin standing in the middle, more than four meters high, and there is nothing carved on it, just in front of the three people who pushed the door open.
The roof of the temple was shattered, and the raindrops from the outside split into two strands on the log beams, which were left to pour on the top of the coffin, and the paint of the large coffin seemed to have not yet dried, and the ground was full of a pool of red liquid, like fresh blood.
Thanks to the function of night vision, Tang Muzhi saw all this clearly, Ding Dao'an and Tu Junfang didn't notice the details, and they couldn't see what a terrifying scene it was for the big black sky mural to hide behind the coffin and stare at it.
As soon as he stepped on the dirt floor of the main hall, Ding Dao'an realized that something was wrong, he wore gloves and dug on the wet mud floor in front of the big coffin for a while, and after a while, a solid stone brick was exposed, and there was a crisp sound when struck lightly - there was indeed a secret room like a secret room below, and it was hollow here!
"Do you want to open the coffin?" Tu Junfang asked.
"Let's see." Tang Muzhi covered his nose, he knew where the "musty smell" here came from.
Tu Junfang clasped the side of the coffin (Bang page) with one hand, put his right foot under the coffin, and exerted force with his hands and feet at the same time, and the red lacquer coffin was put down diagonally by him!
Bang!
After the coffin board smashed on the wall painted with the mural of "Da Heitian", there was a loud noise, the lower half of the mural was completely blocked, the faint moonlight came in, and the black face of "Da Heitian" with angry eyes was revealed, and the whole layout looked like the burly Da Heitian supported the coffin, which was very weird. If ordinary people saw such a scene in the middle of the night, they would be frightened.
When the coffin fell backwards, it almost splashed the red water below on Tang Muzhi's body, and he was standing outside the hall at the moment.
Due to Tu Junfang's violent operation, the four-meter-long Nanmu coffin was a little overwhelmed, and the reddish-brown lid slid down directly!
Tang Muzhi saw that Ding Dao'an didn't know when his hands had formed a mudra - the ten fingers of his hands were clasped tightly, and the index fingers were connected to make a solo diamond print; There are also words in his mouth: "Flying flowers and falling leaves, humility like a valley!" A thousand worries, only to settle the heart! Immediately raise your eyebrows, and the spiritual platform is quiet! There is no obstacle in the heart, and there is no attachment to the mind! Relieve the mind and relieve the mind, Mo Ran has no soul! The water flow is not alarmed, and the clouds are late! Single-minded, ancient and modern! ”
"The handprint of the word 'Pro'? Is this also a spell? Tang Muzhi often doesn't pay attention to things like the opening and closing of the coffin at this time, but likes to observe the reactions of other people in this situation, and sure enough, Ding Daoan showed something else.
Hug Puzi said: "Those who are fighting in the army are all moving forward in arrays. All nine words, often as a secret blessing, all-encompassing. If you don't have to worry about it, that's what you say. ”
Ding Dao'an used the word "Lin" in the formula, and Tang Muzhi did not know what the specific effect was, but according to the "Inner Chapter of Hug Puzi", this thing can ward off evil spirits, and it is very suitable to use it now.
Then Tang Muzhi glanced into the coffin, Ma Weijie was staring at them with blood-red eyes, which matched the eyes of the big black sky above, making the surrounding yin wind much colder.
