Chapter 49: A deep sense of powerlessness

His name was Xunwu, and he was a monk who practiced with Master Kiyosho, who had taken care of him for a long time when he was a child, and he had a deep relationship with him.

"Mr. Luo, oh no, Senior Brother Luo, you can start practicing right away."

At this time, Xunwu took Zhou Ze and walked quickly towards the outside of the temple, seemingly in a hurry.

Zhou Ze was a little puzzled and asked, "What kind of cultivation is this, why do you want to go outside the temple?" ”

Xunwu lowered his head and hurried away, without explaining too much, just saying, "You'll know later." ”

Hearing him say this, Zhou Ze didn't ask too much about it, and followed him to a pond.

At this time, it is summer, and the cicadas on the trees by the pond are constantly singing, and there are many poisonous insects in the pond during this season, among which the grasshopper that sucks blood is the most.

And the first step of Zhou Ze's practice is one word:

"Patience!"

If you want to practice Buddhism, you need a lot of endurance and perseverance.

Zhou Ze looked at Xun Wu with some bitterness and asked, "Is there really only this way?" ”

In fact, Zhou Ze was not afraid of how much damage these poisonous insects would cause to him, but he was afraid that these slimy things would wriggle on his body.

I thought that Xun Wu would comfort himself, but Zhou Ze really didn't expect him to frown and say solemnly: "Senior Brother Luo, this matter is related to the life safety of Master Qingzhao and you, don't be cowardly!" ”

Zhou Ze looked at Xunwu's serious expression, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Haha, of course I won't be timid." ”

Hmph, just complain, what are you doing so seriously, I'm the one whose life is in danger.

So saying, he took off his clothes, and removed the lotus leaves.

Squatted naked in the pond.

The fishy water overflowed the whole body, leaving only a bare head exposed,

Seeing that Zhou Ze had already entered the pond with his whole body,

Xun Wu closed his eyes and began to recite the mantra silently,

Then, Zhou Ze in the pond began to feel that something was wrong,

He found that he could no longer move, and he couldn't make a single sound.

Looking at Xunwu,

It's just a closed-eyed monk chanting mantras in his mouth constantly.

Damn, what's going on, why can't I move, I can't talk yet.

But he didn't have the energy to think about why he did.

Because he felt that his whole body began to become unusually painful and unbearable.

It's as if there are countless needles piercing themselves,

But this was not over, and then Zhou Ze felt countless things with slime squirming on his body,

Then the wriggling area was still unusually painful, as if someone had cut the skin with a dagger, and then slid the tip of the knife over the wound without stopping.

Although Zhou Ze's body is indeed strong, this kind of pondering is indeed too tiring.

The severe pain and unbearable itching made Zhou Ze completely lose his expression management, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Then, Zhou Ze felt something climb up his neck, and then climbed higher and higher, and finally climbed all the way to his face.

I saw a long catfish squirming on Zhou Ze's face,

Zhou Ze closed his eyes and mouth tightly, for fear that this thing would go somewhere.

Damn, when will it end, it's really hard.

But the torment continues,

In the originally quiet pond, the ripples of the water suddenly began to grow.

Then a huge python suddenly burst out of the water,

It wrapped around Zhou Ze's body stiffly,

Zhou Ze was almost out of breath,

"Ahem, ahem."

He kept coughing,

"Damn, I can't stand it!"

The voice sounded, and then he found that he could move, and those poisonous insects and the like all left Zhou Ze's body at this moment,

And Xun Wu on the shore also looked at Zhou Ze with relief at this time and stopped chanting the mantra.

"Senior Brother Luo, very good, I didn't expect your concentration to be so strong, and then you can start to accept the inheritance of the high monks."

Zhou Ze crawled out of the pond covered in mud and asked curiously, "Monk inheritance?" ”

"Yes, since Senior Brother Luo has just started practicing, the traditional cultivation method is no longer suitable for you, and you can only transmit all the mana of the high monks in the monastery to you, so that you can deal with that evil head descending master. Okay, Senior Brother Luo, you go and rest first, and tomorrow we will start the official inheritance. ”

But as soon as the words fell, Xunwu suddenly felt something, took out a Buddha statue from his arms, and then closed his eyes and silently recited a mantra.

The Buddha statue emitted a faint golden light, as if to indicate something

At this time, he frowned and said, "Oh no, that head descender seems to know that we are going to deal with him, and he is already on his way!" ”

"That ......"

Before Zhou Ze could speak, Xun Wu took Zhou Ze's hand and ran towards the temple.

"Now I can only give you the transmission power in advance, I'll guard the gate, you just follow the guidance of the monk."

Then he took Zhou Ze to a lobby and hurried to the door.

Zhou Ze didn't dare to slack off, and according to the guidance of the monks in the hall, he sat in the center of a huge altar.

Then his hands and feet were bound by four ropes with runes, and at the end of each rope were two monks who transmitted mana.

"Lord Luoshi, are you ready, the ceremony is about to begin."

Zhou Ze nodded,

Then the monks began to recite the scriptures,

Then there was a golden light that continued to transmit along the rope towards Zhou Ze,

When the golden light touched, Zhou Ze only felt that his limbs were scorched by the flames,

Soon, he felt that his whole body was wrapped in flames, as if a fire dragon was circling around him,

Zhou Ze's expression was painful, coupled with the torment in the pond just now, now it is simply two heavens of ice and fire,

Damn, how long is this going to take!

......

Outside the temple, the originally sunny weather suddenly became gloomy, as if to indicate that something terrible was coming.

Xun Wu at the door was wearing a robe that emitted a faint streamer, and he was holding a Zen staff in his hand, looking at the scene in front of him vigilantly.

It was a thunderclap in the sky, and a man wearing a ghost head mask and a black robe appeared in the sky.

"Don't resist senselessly, it's useless."

When Xun Wu saw him, his face was not afraid at all, and he shouted: "Demon, don't be caught yet!" ”

"Hmph. You want me to be tied up and die!

As his words fell, his surroundings became more gloomy,

Then a "squeak" sounded, and tens of thousands of blood bats appeared in the sky.

They roared and rushed madly towards the temple.

Seeing this scene, Xunwu hurriedly recited a mantra in his mouth and performed Buddhism, forming a natural barrier in front of the temple.

The bats, as if unconscious, rushed frantically towards the barrier

"Zizi"

A scorching putrid smell came, and the blood bats slammed into the barrier, and their corpses fell to the ground like black raindrops.

But the bats seemed to be endless, and the barrier created by Xunwu gradually cracked.

"Bang"

A cracking sound sounded, and a blood bat was the first to break through the barrier,

Then one by one, the blood bats also passed through the barrier,

They rushed straight to the door of the black,

Xun Wu was caught off guard, and was suddenly rushed to the face by dozens of blood bats,

His body was unstable, and the precarious barrier crumbled at this time.

The ghost-headed masked man looked at Xun Wu's embarrassed appearance, and also laughed: "Hahaha, you still want to stop it like this." ”

Just as he was laughing insolently, a flame suddenly burned on Xunwu's face, burning the bat on his face at once.

It's just that his face is already a blur of flesh and blood, and the scorching flames and the gnawing of bats have made his face unsightly,

Xunwu's body swayed, like a kite with a broken string, and was about to fall.

But he still managed to stand still, and said in the same tone as before, "You don't want to come in!" ”

Although his words were already vague, the firmness of his words did not change in the slightest.

The ghost-headed masked man snorted coldly: "Hmph, it's quite backbone, but what should you do now?" ”

Then with a wave of his black robe, another large group of blood bats arrived,

But Xun Wu was not a little afraid, this time he did not passively defend, but stripped off his shirt and rushed towards the ghost-headed masked man.

His bare upper body was filled with red mantras, which were the powerful light burst mantras of Buddhism.

Xun Wu chanted a spell in his mouth, and regardless of the blood bat on his body, he rushed directly towards the ghost-headed masked man,

"Damn, what a damn guy!"

The ghost-headed masked man cursed secretly, and then wanted to dodge,

But Xunwu is like a homing missile, chasing him all the time, and the speed is getting faster and faster.

"What's going on!"

The ghost-headed masked man showed a slightly flustered look.

Soon, Xunwu had completely caught up and grabbed him.

"Get out of here!"

The ghost-faced man tried to break free, but Xunwu was like a screw stuck in his body, and no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't break free.

The spell on Xunwu's body glowed red,

"Evil, I won't let you succeed."

His eyes were full of determination, and he was ready to die,

The red light grew stronger and stronger, completely enveloping the two of them,

In the end, I only heard a loud "bang",

The powerful power of Xunwu's body erupted,

"Ah......h

The ghost-faced man let out a terrible scream.

The sound of the explosion reached the temple, and Zhou Ze, who was trying his best to endure the torture, couldn't help but be stunned,

Hunt for Wu, is this what happened?

When the eight eminent monks who passed on the power for Zhou Ze heard this voice, they accelerated the speed of transmitting the power.

This kid did it anyway.

"Senior brothers, work hard, don't let down the sacrifice of the little junior brother Xunwu!"

Hearing the words of the monks, Zhou Ze seemed to be able to guess some situations,

Damn, someone died because of me.

I'm going to wipe it out!

Thinking of this, Zhou Ze felt that the burning sensation on his body was not so serious, and even felt that the physical functions of his whole body had been improved to a new level.

And at this time, his body began to emit pure golden light,

The legacy is about to succeed!

At this time, there was a loud bang, and the Buddha statues around the lobby were suddenly knocked down by a powerful force.

"Poof"

A mouthful of blood spat on the eye of a Maitreya Buddha on the ground of the lobby,

Then the ghost-faced man who exuded yin qi covered his chest and slowly walked into the lobby.

With a cruel smile on his face, he looked at Zhou Ze, who was about to complete the transmission,

With a cold snort, he suddenly grabbed Zhou Ze's neck at an extremely fast speed.

"Suffer death!"

Seeing the ghost-faced man suddenly rushing over, Zhou Ze couldn't avoid it at all,

Just when he was about to strangle Zhou Ze's neck,

One of the eminent monks who passed on the gong suddenly blocked in front of Zhou Ze,

"Puff"

Blood gushed from the monk's neck,

He immediately lost his breath.

But the ghost-faced man's movements still didn't stop,

He sneered,

"Hmph, if you want to protect him, then I'll kill them all one by one!"

"Puff"

The ghost-faced man's eyes flickered with cold light,

He ran all the necks of the other seven eminent monks,

Hands stained with blood,

Blood splatters in the air,

Even Zhou Ze's face was stained with the blood of a high monk,

This holy hall has been turned into a living purgatory!

Zhou Ze just watched one by one living people die miserably in front of him,

He felt a deep sense of powerlessness,

Why, why am I not strong enough, why!

This sense of powerlessness was immediately transformed into a sky-high killing intent,

He glared at the ghost-faced man as if he wanted to devour him.

And the ghost-faced man solved them and turned his head, staring at Zhou Ze coldly,

Then slowly take off the mask,

"Long time no see, brother."

The voice was hoarse and low, as if it were the whisper of a demon,

[Whew.] 】
