Chapter 530: The Umbilical Cord of the Buddha Mother (Part II)
Chen Bofu originally planned to turn his face directly, because after listening to Chen Jing's story, he suddenly had a feeling of being hacked by this gang of thieves and bald donkeys.
Although Chen Bofu has always looked up to them, at least he thinks that these monks are quite face-saving and can't do that kind of thing of stabbing them in the back......
"It doesn't have to be trying to harm us." Chen Jing finally persuaded the old man who was about to get mad, "While it's time for the banquet, let's just ask Erga directly." ”
Facts have proved that the old man still listens to his good grandson, at least for the time being, he was persuaded by Chen Jing.
However, Chen Bofu's vigilance has been raised to an unprecedented height, and it seems that he has little trust in the temple at all.
When he followed the elder to the [Buddha Mother Hall] for a banquet, Chen Jing was also chatting quietly with the old man, saying that he didn't quite understand the customs of the Polar Day.
You can even have a banquet and eat supper on a big night, and the place where you can eat supper can even be placed in the main hall of the temple dedicated to the Buddha's mother......
Think about it.
Chen Jing and the old man only felt that the purity of the faith of these monks was too low, and they couldn't even compare to the group of monks in Eternal Night City.
After all, judging from Chen Jing's understanding of those monks, if someone dares to say that they want to go to the church where they worship Gegero for supper, it is estimated that those grandsons will be able to turn their faces directly against you.
Come to the main hall of the banquet.
Chen Jing found that it was quieter than during the day.
Except for Ogah, who was seated on the throne, the rest of the elders did not show up......
"Where's your little brother?" Chen Bofu didn't let him go in first, and while asking questions with a broken mouth, he looked at the environment in the hall vigilantly, as if he was wondering if the temple was going to engage in an ambush and sneak attack, "If you don't come to eat, where will you die?" ”
"They prepared to go." With a smile on his face, Ega warmly beckoned Chen Jing and them to take their seats.
Hearing the dull sound coming from behind him, Chen Jing subconsciously glanced back before sitting down, only to find that the door of the palace had been closed.
Compared to the last time they came, the [Buddha Mother Hall] at this moment was even darker, only the candle flame in front of the Buddha Mother statue was still swaying silently, and the rest of the everlasting lights had been extinguished.
After taking a seat.
Chen Jing smelled the strange fragrance coming from his nose, looked down at it casually, and found that these delicacies in the temple were very similar to Chinese cuisine in the real world, and the exquisiteness of the presentation was almost catching up with the state banquet......
"The meat is good, it's fresh."
Chen Bofu had already moved his chopsticks at this moment, picked up a piece of meat as thin as a cicada's wing, and put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully.
"There's still a bit of residual energy in this meat...... Where did you get it? ”
"Picked from the tree." Oga replied with a smile.
As soon as he heard this, Chen Bofu's chopsticks immediately stopped in mid-air, but he quickly put them on the plate and sandwiched a piece, and continued to eat slowly and methodically.
Only Chen Jing didn't move his chopsticks, and looked at Erga in surprise...... Picked from the tree?
"I've heard before that there are many strange things growing on the sacred mountain of your monastery, among which there is a kind of alien tree that can grow 'human fruit', and the fruit is three feet long and two feet wide, and the shape is like a fat doll......
As he spoke, Chen Bofu paused, and a mocking smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Not to mention, this thing looks like meat is actually vegetarian, and the vegetarian diet in the temple is really a debut......" Chen Bofu saw that Chen Jing didn't move his chopsticks, so he took the initiative to help him sandwich a piece of fried scarlet pulp, "Erga, isn't it a bit rude that your disciples and grandchildren don't come to accompany you?" ”
"Actually, I didn't let them come." Ega sighed, "It's enough to talk to you about business, and I'm enough." ”
"Hmm...... Speaking of which, I just have something to ask you. Chen Bofu was not afraid that these bald donkeys would poison his food, so he ate and chatted by himself, "Before, my grandson went to the underground of the Polar Day Capital to see the Buddha's mother, and he found that there was something strange on the Buddha's mother......"
Chen Bofu spoke in an extremely relaxed tone, as if he was chatting with an old friend about trivial matters, and retold the picture that Chen Jing saw in just a few words.
Hearing Chen Bofu say that Chen Jing saw those strange silk threads, Erga was obviously stunned for a moment, and then looked at Chen Jing with a look of surprise.
"I didn't expect me to really underestimate you...... You can see the umbilical cord of the Mother Buddha?! ”
"Umbilical cord?"
Chen Jing and the old man looked at each other, but it was the first time they had heard of such a thing.
"Actually, I didn't mean to hide anything...... Nor is it harming you...... In a way, this is a gift from the Mother Buddha......"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved it gently, and with the candlelight in front of the Buddha statue swaying from side to side, the "umbilical cord" rooted in Chen Jing's chest instantly appeared...... Chen Jing and the old man could only see about half a meter, as if it was translucent, and it was very unreal to loom near the end.
"The polar day is the territory of the Mother Buddha, and all creatures that appear here will receive the gifts of the Mother Buddha and connect with the body of the Mother Buddha through the umbilical cord, so as to obtain a steady stream of vitality ......."
According to Earga.
This is actually one of the biggest secrets of the temple, and of course it can also be regarded as the secret of the Polar Day...... Mother Buddha's umbilical cord is both a supreme gift and the cornerstone of this paradise in troubled times.
"The life force of the Buddha Mother is endless, so it is not stingy with this, and any creature that is connected to it through the umbilical cord can receive the 'nutrients' that the Buddha Mother delivers continuously...... Therefore, in the Polar Daylight Capital, even the most ordinary human beings can always maintain the 'state of bliss' full of qi and blood and avoid all diseases, and their lifespan is much longer than that of humans in the outside world. ”
"No harm?" Chen Jing asked.
"Lao Tzu is rare?" Chen Bofu scoffed.
Erga took the initiative to ignore Chen Bofu's complaints, and said to Chen Jing with a smile Of course, there is no harm, this is a generous gift that the Buddha's mother will give to the world with compassion.
"Houli Crab Bar......" Chen Jing muttered, and suddenly raised his hand to grab the looming "umbilical cord", and in Erga's disbelieving gaze, he grabbed the tail end of the "umbilical cord" and slowly pulled it away from his body.
"This thing is supposed to be a two-way street...... Since the Mother Buddha can give the world infinite vitality...... Naturally, it can also be recovered with interest...... And once something happens to the Mother Buddha's body...... I'm afraid that the entire range of the polar capital will be affected......"
"You...... Can you touch the umbilical cord of the Mother Buddha? Oga felt that he could hardly see through the deep space resuscitator, because the umbilical cord of the Buddha Mother did not exist in a physical state, and even he, as the leader of the monastery, could not reach it.
"It's just a trick to play with the laws of dimension, but it's no wonder that it can pass through the seal and get to the outside world......"
After Chen Jing took off the umbilical cord of the Buddha Mother with his usual face, only in an instant, a new umbilical cord appeared out of thin air, just like the previous one, piercing the depths of his heart and leaving only half of it outside......
This made Chen Jing speechless all of a sudden, and said in his heart that this thing couldn't be shaken off like a curse?
And Chen Bofu on the side was also dumbfounded, he couldn't help but glance back at Erga, and his mind had already begun to calculate, whether to use his left hand to slap his big mouth or right hand first.
"Erga, if the Buddha mother of your temple plays like this, it will be a bit shameless, isn't this especially a cow that doesn't drink water and presses its head...... Can you still rush to put dog skin plasters on people!? ”
