Chapter Forty-Eight: Cultivating Bamboo Breaks the Heart Demon
After searching the surroundings and finding no clues, they continued to follow the traces left by Tashi earlier and walked further to the inner passage.
Along the tunnel, everyone walked for a long time, and finally saw the light, and everyone came up to find that it was actually on a Gobi.
The entrance to this passage is located at the bottom of the cliff, and there is no tunnel to be found outside.
"Looks like someone has already entered Devil's City before us!" Liu Fugui said.
"So what now?" He Chaoqun felt that the tunnel that was hard to find was the first thing to be reached, and he was like a headless fly, and he didn't gain anything.
Liu Fugui comforted: "Don't worry, we are not completely without gains, at least we know that someone has already known the secret of the top of Kunlun before us and entered the Devil City in advance." So who knows about this authentic thing? ”
Liu Fugui's words reminded Bai Ye, and Bai Ye said, "It's Tashi!" He heard about this tunnel with us from the Master of Good Fortune, and he must have come back early to enter the tunnel, take the treasure, and enter the Devil's City. ”
"Not bad!" He Tao also said: "It must be that thief who entered the Devil's City in advance, he heard the secret of immortality, and he also wanted to possess it alone." ”
Liu Fugui bowed slightly, thought for a while and said: "Since this is the case, then we won't waste time here, let's go back first, at least Xiuzhu and Xiaoye can open the passage to Devil City, and it is not too late for us to wait for Xiuzhu to wake up and thoroughly study the mental method of good karma." ”
"20 years before the summit plan, my senior brother and I put in a lot of effort to find it to no avail, and they will definitely not gain much when they go in."
After receiving Liu Fugui's guidance, everyone returned to Tashi's house, and when they entered the door, they found that Xiuzhu had woken up.
"Xiuzhu! How do you feel when you wake up? He Chaoqun stepped forward and asked with concern.
But Xiuzhu seemed to be a different person, silent, just sitting cross-legged alone, reciting scriptures in his mouth.
Seeing Xiuzhu like this, He Chaoqun was angry and didn't fight anywhere: "Alas, why are you dumb kid?" How much effort have we put into taking care of you? You don't care about people. ”
Song Zisu, who came back from fetching water, pulled He Chaoqun over and said, "It's like this when he wakes up, I don't know what happened, so let Master come and take a look." ”
Song Zisu told Liu Fugui about Xiuzhu's situation, and Liu Fugui didn't know what was going on, but Xiuzhu kept chanting without saying a word, and didn't come down until dinner.
"Yo, you kid knows you're hungry, what are you pretending to be cold?" He Chaoqun looked at him with such a stomach.
The benefactor couldn't have said that. Food, clothing, shelter and transportation are necessary for mortal people, and although I am a monk, I have not yet left the world, and I also need food. ”
Everyone doesn't understand why Xiuzhu has become like this, the little monk who was not serious before, suddenly seemed to be a different person, became deep, and became old-fashioned.
Xiuzhu glanced at the chicken thighs and pork knuckles on the table, frowned and asked, "Is there any fasting rice?" The monks can't eat this. ”
?
Everyone is now completely convinced that the person in front of them is not the one who cultivates the bamboo, the previous virtual bamboo is gnawing on the chicken legs, and now he actually says that he wants to eat fast.
"What the hell is wrong with you kid? I don't eat my favorite big chicken legs, doesn't it mean that I am tired of eating fasting after 18 years with Master Shanyuan, and I am hungry and thin? ”
"Good, good," Xuzhu bowed and said, "I was stupid before, and I didn't understand why Master had been working hard to hone my will and teach the Dharma, but now I know Master's good intentions. ”
After a while, Liu Fugui opened his mouth and said, "Zisu, you go and cook some food for Xiuzhu." ”
"Good!" Although Song Zisu didn't know what was wrong with Xiuzhu, he still had to give him food. Turned around and went into the kitchen to make a meal for Xiuzhu.
And Xiuzhu, who had no food to eat now, turned around and returned to the room to continue meditating and chanting.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with him? It wasn't like this before. ”
Shiraba is also worried about the state of bamboo cultivation.
Liu Fugui shook his head and said: "He was trapped by the demons in his heart, and now he can only wait for him to comprehend the Heart Sutra and get out of his own demons." ”
For the next few days, Xiuzhu never stopped chanting except for eating and going to the toilet, even when he slept at night, he sat cross-legged on the bed without moving.
Everyone was worried about this, but Liu Fugui didn't say a word, just stood outside the room silently protecting the bamboo cultivation.
Several times during this period, Song Zisu and Mo Tianya wanted to go in to see Xiuzhu, but Liu Fugui refused.
"He is now in the critical period of breaking through his inner demons, and he can't be disturbed in any way, if he succeeds, then there will be one more Dharma master in this world."
Liu Fugui also saw that the little monk Xiuzhu has a deep Buddhist relationship and is a rare good seedling, if he can break through the demons, his skills will not be under the cultivation of the master of good fate.
Liu Fugui and the others' actions were also suspended because of Xiuzhu, but Tashi and them were not comfortable in the Devil's City.
After Tashi got the four boxes and led the group into the Devil's City, he began to search for the secret of the top of Kunlun in the city.
Not only did he find nothing, but he also ran into the rakshasa.
It's the one that Mo Tianya and Bai also met in it before!
Tashi is an ordinary person, and the group of people he brought with him are only good at fists and feet, and there is nothing they can do in the face of such a monster, so they can only be slaughtered.
After a long run, only the dying Tashi was left alive.
Tashi fought desperately, took the 4 boxes and opened the passage of the Devil's City, and left the Devil's City desperately.
After Tashi escaped, the old man in the silk robe was already waiting outside with his people.
Seeing Tashi coming out of the Devil's Town, the old man immediately sent someone to carry Tashi away.
Bai Ye and the others stayed at Tashi's house for several days without moving, and Xiu became more and more obsessed with the Heart Sutra.
Liu Fugui said: "His current situation is becoming more and more critical, if he can't break through his inner demons in time, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
In fact, if Xiuzhu stays in the mountains all his life, there will definitely be no demons, he is originally a person born with a Buddha fate, his heart is pure, without any impurities, if he is by the side of the master of good fate for a lifetime, then he will spend this life steadily.
But Xiuzhu went down the mountain, saw the prosperity of the world, the Buddha's heart rippled, and the power of the resentful spirit in the bracelet should not be underestimated, which disturbed Xiuzhu's original pure heart, so he was entangled by the demons.
Now Liu Fugui is also staying by Xiuzhu's side day and night, for fear that something will happen to him, Song Zisu also took this opportunity to learn more Taoism with Liu Fugui.
On the night of the 7th day after Xiuzhu woke up, Bai Ye and the others were awakened by a burst of laughter, and rushed to Xiuzhu's room to take a look, it turned out that this kid was alive again.
"Sister Zisu, do you have any food? I am hungry. ”
Seeing that Xiuzhu had returned to his previous indecent appearance, Song Zisu smiled, his hanging heart could finally be put down, and he hurriedly went to the kitchen to prepare the meal.
Liu Fugui said to everyone: "Let's go back and rest first, Xiuzhu has just broken through the demons in his heart, and he will eat some food in a while, and I will give him a breath, and I will talk about it tomorrow." ”
