Volume 2 Dynasty Chapter 231 Duobao Temple
The wedding banquet of marriage generally lasts for about three days in Dajin.
Although the main family tried their best to keep him, Lu Xuan still set foot on the road to Duobao Temple in the early morning of the next day.
The carriage swayed on the muddy path, and Lu Zhaozhao drove the carriage, his blindfolded eyes attracting many pedestrians.
Lu Xuan, who was sitting in the carriage, flipped through the file given by the other party, and the wrinkles on his brows were always scattered, and the more he looked at this file, the more uneasy he became.
"In the third year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, in the spring, the three hundred monks of Duobao Temple disappeared, and the exploration of the twelve nights of Tiangan was fruitless. In the following year, the Duobao Temple was located in the south of the city, and the people died tragically overnight, with no wounds and no traces of magic, all of which were dissipated by the soul, and the investigation was fruitless, and it was classified as the Xuanqi case. ”
"Supplement: In the fourteenth year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, the monks of Duobao Temple appeared in the temple, and the next day, the souls of the people in the city appeared, and the dead city reappeared prosperously, which was the same as the three years of the Qianyuan Dynasty, and the people of the Xianmen went to explore the ......"
Seeing this, Lu Xuan slowly closed the file.
There are still some records on the bamboo slips, but most of them are about the beginning and end of the establishment of the temple, and it has little to do with the facts of the case, and the only thing worth noting is that the temple is dedicated to the Bodhisattva of the Jizo King.
Jizo King Bodhisattva.
Before Shakyamuni was destroyed and Maitreya was not born, he vowed to do his best to save all sentient beings in the six realms, save all suffering, and wish to become a Buddha. Because the Buddhist scriptures record that Jizo Bodhisattva has rescued his mother who was suffering in hell several times in his past lives, and has been vowing to save all sentient beings who have sins and sufferings, especially those in hell, since a long time ago, he is considered to have the virtue of "great filial piety" and "great vow", so he is honored as the Bodhisattva of the Great Wish Jizo King.
"Hell is not empty, can't you become a Buddha?"
Thinking of the description of this divine residence on the case file, Lu Xuan sighed slightly.
In this strange world, he once saw those so-called gods and Buddhas in deep space, and they naturally existed.
It is precisely because of this that this trip must be extremely difficult.
Just from the dossier, we can get information that the Jizo king is in charge of hell.
Then, the matter of Duobao Temple is afraid that it is inseparable from this Jizo King Bodhisattva.
"Is the True Spirit Cult trying to deal with a true god?" Lu Xuan pondered: "If this is the case, wouldn't it be clear that I should be sent to death?" ”
"Run away?" He sat next to Lu Xuan and asked softly.
Lu Xuan shook his head: "The other party learned about me from Ji Ruyu's mouth, and he should be very clear about my methods, even if I kill the Yao family, they are only Dan Xiu after all, and they have not yet left the category of people." But the king of Jizo is in the dossier, but he has clearly become a Buddha, so he naturally knows that I am not the opponent of the evil here, and since this is the case, he also asked me to find out the truth, which shows that he is very likely to use me as a pawn to find the way, and maybe, he is following us behind our ass at this moment. ”
"The True Spirit Sect has rules that don't allow you to hurt the rest of the monks at will."
"The rules are dead, people are alive, Ji Ruyu obeys this rule, but it doesn't mean that others abide by this rule."
Lu Xuan leaned his back on the carriage, looked at the top made of nanmu, and said slowly: "However, it's not that there is no good news, at least from the reaction of these two True Spirit Sect people who saw me, it confirmed my previous guess, looking for me, there is probably only one national teacher, not the entire True Spirit Sect, and then thinking of the three prisoners waiting for me in the mountain village, it is not difficult to judge that the national teacher is secretly looking for me, and there is no fanfare, which means that Dajin is not as dangerous as imagined." ”
Speaking of this, Lu Xuan smiled self-deprecatingly: "Compared with the Great Qi and the poor countries, the Great Jin is much more stable. ”
The sarcasm on his face receded a little, and he asked, "Are you really planning to go to Duobao Temple to serve the True Spirit Sect?" You can also see that this matter is extremely dangerous, and you are afraid that you will have a life to go and no life to return. ”
"Hehe, although the True Spirit Sect asked me to go to Duobao Temple, it doesn't mean that I must die." Lu Xuan closed his eyes slightly: "If you want to survive, you need to master a little heat, the matter of Duobao Temple has to be investigated for the True Spirit Sect, but it is only a check, as for what is behind it, it has nothing to do with me." ”
He was happy and asked with interest, "You mean, only work, not work?" ”
"It's me who does things, and I have the final say." Lu Xuan opened his eyes: "You reminded me of one thing, although I don't know if this person abides by the rules of the True Spirit Sect, but I can give it a try, after all, cannon fodder can be regarded as a useful chess piece when it has not yet played a role, and besides, this should be within his tolerance." ”
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan lifted the curtain and said softly: "Zhaozhao, go in and rest for a while, I'll catch the car." ”
"Brother Lu, I'm not tired."
"I'll let you in and rest."
“.......”
After Lu Zhaozhao sat back in the carriage, Lu Xuan looked at the Duobao Temple written on the map, then turned the horse's head and drove out in the other direction.
I walked on the mountain road for about two or three hours.
Everything around him suddenly slowed down, the speed of falling leaves was like fluttering catkins, and the sound of the wheels of the car was slow and harsh, even with it, Lu Xuan felt that his breathing slowed down, but the flow of blood was much faster, so that his whole face was purple, as if he would suffocate to death in the next moment.
"Holy shit, it's really following me."
Lu Xuan scolded angrily in his heart, turned the horse's head with all his might, and waited to get back on the road to Duobao Temple.
The suffocating sensation that had risen invisibly had just receded like a tide, and the time around it had been sluggish had returned to normal.
"The guess you just made is all set up now, and the other party is really using you as cannon fodder, hahaha." He laughed and said, "You might as well hand over the control of your body to me, let alone Duobao Temple, I can help you clean up with your True Spirit Sect." ”
Lu Xuan ignored his demagogy, his brows furrowed slightly.
He really felt it, and just a slight temptation, the other party moved to kill.
If you really want to escape, you may die in the middle of the road for no apparent reason.
"Eh, the conditions I'm talking about are good, don't you really think about it?" He whispered in Lu Xuan's ears.
Lu Xuan didn't have much patience to talk to him, so he just said coldly: "You have the ability to bring me back from the dead in the border city, will you let me die in Duobao Temple?" Rather than handing over my body to you, rather than risking the possibility of turning against the True Spirit Sect, I might as well wait for an opportunity to escape when they fight the evil spirits of Duobao Temple, after all, you don't want me to die in the true sense of the word. ”
He grabbed Lu Xuan's collar, and his hatred was about to condense into substance: "Do you really think that you will eat me?" ”
"I can't talk about you, I'm just downplaying." Lu Xuan said lightly: "I really want to live, but when I get to the point of desperation, I don't mind disgusting you, let alone assimilating me, I won't even leave you with this body." ”
"You! ....”
Half a quarter of an hour later, Lu Xuan tidied up his clothes, held the reins in his hand, and drove the carriage bought from Fengyang City, his eyes drooping, as if he had a very heavy heart, buried in the bottom of his heart.
Going to Duobao Temple was indeed the result of his weighing of the pros and cons.
But there is a more important point, Lu Xuan did not reveal it to him.
That's the truth about this world!
Gods in the depths of space!
Along the way, Lu Xuan had already discovered that a large part of the hardships he had experienced had one thing in common.
Whether it is the sect or evil cult encountered on the road, such as Zhen Yuanzi in Langyuan Wonderland, the sect members of Wudou Mijiao, the ancient trees of Wuzhuang Temple, and the villagers of Taoyuan Village....
They all worship a god and Buddha, and these gods and Buddhas he has no direct contact with.
However, Lu Xuan knew one thing clearly, many of the behaviors of their disciples were from these gods and Buddhas!
When the Wudou Rice Sect gave alms to the people of Weicheng, Lu Xuan once saw the scene of them worshipping a statue of a god in the inner world.
The reason why it is regarded as an elixir in Langyuan Wonderland is because of the ancestor in Zhen Yuanzi's mouth, and the method of becoming an immortal left by it is to use living people to make alchemy.
Not to mention Daqi and Taoyuan Village, which themselves are worshipping evil gods on the bright side.
This made Lu Xuan have a very bold guess in his heart.
Perhaps, a large part of the calamities of this world come from these so-called gods.
If so..... Just find a place where there are no gods and no monks.
Maybe we will be able to get rid of this fate.
Although he was coerced, Lu Xuan himself was still willing to go to Duobao Temple to have a look, and he wanted to see with his own eyes how the so-called Jizo Bodhisattva harmed the monks of Duobao Temple and the people who left the city in the north.
In this way, you can not only determine the speculation that the gods are causing harm to the world, but also give yourself a better way to avoid these evil gods!
It's just that..... Lu Xuan glanced back at Lu Zhaozhao in the carriage.
There is not much difference between him doing this and taking chestnuts in the fire, and he must not let Lu Zhaozhao follow him to the danger.
But if she finds a way to break her apart, if she is not by her side, the people who can't keep the heavenly immortals will find her.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but rub his temples, looked at the Duobao Temple on the map again, and after thinking for a while, he was still ready to let Lu Zhaozhao leave for the time being.
However, you still have to be prepared for both.
