Chapter 234, Winter Festival, when the undercurrent is surging
As a guru, you have to have the ability to endure loneliness, and you should be in the tantric realm, and the way back is lonely, and there is no human being, wild wolves, herds of wild mastiffs, and man-eating bears, eagles in the sky, wild asses, wild horses, and yellow sheep, and they are hovering here, but they give everyone a sense of reassurance, and they should be so, and they are also life.
With the existence of life, it is dangerous, and it is much better than seeing the treacherous walking, as they gradually penetrate into the hinterland of the endless Baita Temple's sphere of influence, even the arrogant celestial phenomena like the "Empty Mother's Breath" are not many here, but even in this hinterland it is still safe, and out of the manor, it is the wilderness.
There is nothing except the road signs made of human bones and the bones of cattle and sheep, wind horse flags, and mani piles, and when the air is hot, there will be a steaming illusion, and it is because of such a special terrain that the owner of the manor is not afraid of the serf escaping, even if the road is bumpy, it is not the serf who can escape.
When you leave the manor, you are just sent to death.
Lu Feng and Master Zhidu, both of them piled up mani piles on the road, unfolded the wind horse flag, and the chanting of the scriptures of the two was also different, Lu Feng was a cycle and never stopped the "six-character mantra". The Guru's wisdom is the long sutra, and the low "buzz" emanates from the chest cavity and passes through the nose.
Lu Feng was even more articulate, so that people could hear what incantation he was reciting, and the two voices seemed to be part of the never-ending tantric domain, transmitted over the entire deserted wilderness, and the two of them had no communication, they seemed to be used to such things as chanting sutras alone, except for eating and drinking, the rest of the time they were chanting sutras.
Both of them can be regarded as ascetics, when the wisdom of the master is full of asceticism, there will be no companions to speak, so naturally they will not speak, Lu Feng can say it or not, so it still saves a lot of trouble, the two of them walked day and night, and finally came to Elder Mingli's manor when the lead clouds were dense and the wind was cold, but they didn't expect that when they left, Elder Mingli's manor, which was empty, was now full of slaves.
Elder Mingli also walked out of his retreat, he was wearing a monk's robe, majestic, this robe, Lu Feng had seen, this monk's robe, should not be what Elder Mingli can wear now, he should be wearing a Dharma robe like armor, this Dharma robe, is the clothes worn by the monks at the Great Dharma Meeting, and it is a special performance item of the person presiding over the Dharma Festival.
And made Lu Feng take a look, and he felt that he knew in his heart that Elder Mingli's mount had changed from the former Dharma Protector God to the current black goat.
This black goat looked at Lu Feng with a pair of eyes, and Lu Feng also looked at the black goat indifferently, not afraid, after looking at it for a long time, the black goat lowered his gaze and licked the ground, and he didn't know whether there was salt on the ground.
Elder Mingli didn't speak, he closed his eyes, he didn't know if he was resting or what he was doing, until Lu Feng came, he asked Lu Feng to go and fetch all his scriptures, and said, "As your 'Buddha-figure guru', I have nothing to give you, just these scriptures, you can take them and read them."
There is no such thing as a gift, this is what the Buddha-figure should give you.
I haven't read these scriptures, I don't know what they are, what is Caidan Lunzhu, what is Caidan Lunzhu? ”
Lu Feng clasped his hands together and thanked his deity, saying that Caidan Lunzhu was very good, and he was studying under a great master, and after asking, the matter was over, and Elder Mingli did not speak again.
The scene was quiet again, Lu Feng folded his hands and kept the books one by one, without looking at the cover or the content inside, he knew that these scriptures were not important, the important thing was the Endless White Pagoda Temple they were about to go to, that was the source of all the problems.
What's inside the temple is the big deal.
This big event, in fact, in addition to involving them, also involves all the places ruled by the Endless White Pagoda Temple, but if something happens in the temple, the three of them will be the first to be impacted - and even if something happens to them, they may not be able to get out of the temple.
At that time, even if they moved all the scriptures of "hidden in the world" to themselves, he had no blessings to enjoy, so he silently put all his scriptures on Baima's body.
Although there was no secret spell on the rattan box, there was no need for Lu Feng to look at it, Elder Mingli watched his two men collect their things, and said slowly: "Let's go, let's go, let's go before it snows."
Whether this reincarnation of His Holiness will be a successful trip or the last one is something that is unknown.
O eternal truth, O eternal truth, remember that everything that we see, everything is the guidance of the Bodhisattva.
I go there, you go there, and I go there.
O Bodhisattva, even where and when the snow falls, it is also the will, and there is no place that is not the will of the Bodhisattva, Yongzhen, we have to do what we are ordered, follow the Bodhisattva, the Bodhisattva will reward us, and if we disobey the Bodhisattva, we are the enemies of the Buddha. ”
Mingli stared at Lu Feng and said, "Do you still know, remember?" ”
"Yes, you will always know, remember."
Lu Feng said.
He didn't say anything, he was a bodhisattva, and he made a great vow, but even so, there is no Buddha land or pure land everywhere in the world.
The Esoteric Domain as it is now.
Is that what a bodhisattva wants?
If this is the Pure Land, then what is Lu Feng cultivating now?
Is it also the will of the Bodhisattva?
Lu Feng restrained all his emotions very well, and they were fleeting, and they were shattered when they appeared! Elder Mingli heard Lu Feng's words, nodded, and couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy, and after getting ready, the group of three people walked towards the Endless White Pagoda Temple, stopping the three of them, without a single entourage.
Now it is not only them who are leaving, but also the nobles in the surrounding state capitals, and they have also begun to go to the temple, which should be the time when the winter Lord and King Puja are coming.
They had to sit in front of them to watch the big people at that big puja, and this puja was even more meaningful, two days before the puja, which was the day of the passing away of the presiding Holiness of the Endless White Pagoda Temple.
After that, they are going to block the Endless White Pagoda Temple, and when the new reincarnated Buddha returns, it will be the vacuum period in the temple, at this time, it is the time when they and the Precept Yuan are in charge of power, and it is also the time when they have the greatest power.
So, hurry up, Lu Feng and the others in the first five days of the snow, they have already arrived at the Endless White Pagoda Temple, that is, now, the atmosphere is different, it is night, but on the way, Lu Feng and others saw a lot of mastiffs tied with colorful stripes, a team of teachers holding torches, and walking Dharma protectors, they turned into a net and pushed out from the temple, the temple is like a spider, and these scattered people are like spiders.
However, these "tentacles" of them could not stop the three masters, and they also met more than one patrol on the road, but the three of them came over safely, and at this moment, they all stood in the distance of the temple, and saw that the temple was still brightly lit, especially on the mountain, the light of butter lamps and torches, from a long dragon under the mountain to the mountain, even the back mountain was illuminated.
There were people everywhere, and it seemed that the temple had sent "errand servants" to bring back all the monks and slaves to guard the temple day and night.
At this time, in the temple of the Endless White Pagoda Temple, there are door locks everywhere, which is the great sect of Cangbei, and there is no way to come out at night and ask others to open the door lock, and the masters are ready to make secret spells at any time, this time, no matter where the fire is, it is to burn a courtyard of people, and it is impossible to open the chains and let people circulate!
Such an unusual situation is like a layer of ominous clouds, shrouded in the hearts of every monk in the Endless White Pagoda Temple, and there is no need to speak, all the monks even when walking, they all carry their own steps, cautiously, lest they have a heavy footstep, provoke the nobles, and end up in a confused end, so Lu Feng looked at the mountain of the Endless White Pagoda Temple from a distance, and was full of emotion.
After leaving for three years, I didn't expect to come back with such a face, and it was in this situation that I saw this temple, which had a great reputation in the state capital, and Elder Zhidu looked at this place and asked, "Elder, how should we get in?" ”
Elder Mingli said, "Wait. ”
Just stop a word, Lu Feng and Elder Mingli, Master Zhidu, waited here for almost a hundred breaths, after a patrol passed, the sound of horses' hooves came, Lu Feng saw that Elder Mingli had no intention of reasoning, so he didn't move, and then, in the dark night, a torch tore open the night.
A lama with a knife came over, presumably an attendant monk, and without saying a word, he took out three packs of monk's robes and a thick coat, threw them on the ground, turned his head and disappeared.
Seeing this, Elder Mingli said: "Put it on, this is the acolyte monk and monk clothes in the 'official residence' of the elders of the early Ming Dynasty in the temple, take this brand, and then wear this clothes, you can mix in the patrolling people tomorrow morning and go to the temple."
When you get to the temple, you don't have to do anything, you don't have to say anything, just stop looking, and you should be done! ”
Lu Feng and the others put on their clothes, and when it was about to be daylight, the master who had lost his monk's robe also came over and brought three horses, Lu Feng and the others got on the horse, as for the rattan box and other things, Bai Ma watched.
Lu Feng went back with the patrol team and found that although the temple seemed to be very heavily guarded, but this temple was used to being lax on weekdays, and if he wanted to bring up these lax people to do things in a short period of time, he was full of energy, but the means were not enough, such lax guards, Lu Feng suspected that there were more "weeds" in now.
I saw that the Duoduo monks and soldiers who were standing and guarding were all one or two who had not woken up, and these Duoduo monks and soldiers, if they were asked to wrestle and throw stones, they could still see the past, but they couldn't do any of them when they were asked to do these delicate tasks, and they didn't know what the effect of pretending to be like this was.
Walking into the temple, Lu Feng felt the extremely oppressive atmosphere in the temple, the monks who came and went were listless, looking down and not daring to look around, and the closer he got, the more Lu Feng saw many fresh faces, it stands to reason that the faces of Elder Mingli and Master Zhidu are all recognized, so before entering, the person who came with monk's clothes also brought three bloody human skin masks and threw them in front of them.
Seeing this, Lu Feng knew that none of their clothes were chosen at random, and the people who took off these clothes were probably not in the world.
The human skin mask he had taken out was as if it had just been peeled off from a human face, and Elder Mingli was not surprised by this, so he took it up, cast a spell, and draped it over their faces, a strange sorcery that made their faces fit incomparably to these faces, as if they were their own.
They all became other people, came to the official residence of the elders in the early Ming Dynasty, they all began a short rest, after the rest, they had to patrol the temple, the three of them did not speak, they were also surrounded by others, everyone leaned back against the bed, began to rest, some people began to go to the kitchen to urge food, to these days, even the kitchen did not care about the precepts, day and night to provide food.
Inside the temple, it's really a "mixed bag".
Lu Feng didn't say a word, and he didn't have a "Gabala rosary" to play with between his fingers, after staying here for a few days, they went out to patrol and walked on the side of the road, Lu Feng also saw some people in armor, and they "guarded" the temple with them, and it was very interesting that they didn't go to the mountain.
'Is it the mountain that surrounds the presiding Venerable?' But what is the use of surrounding this mountain? The number of monks in the third order is just one number. ’
After patrolling like this for a few days, it came the day when "the presiding Venerable One should pass away".
Before the sun had set, Lu Feng and the others were holding magic weapons and weapons, and stayed in the courtyard, everyone knew that the big day had arrived, and all eyes fell on the mountain, and they all fell on the watchtower where the presiding venerable was located in the distance.
The elders in the temple, the great nobles, went up the mountain in turn, pilgrimage generally walked towards the watchtower on the mountain, and after entering the watchtower, there was no sound.
"Is the Presiding Venerable waiting for these people to come?"
Lu Feng asked.
Elder Mingli stood beside him, shook his head and said, "That's not the case, it's never them who are in the way of the Venerable Presiding Venerable!" ”
Having said that, the wind suddenly rose outside the Tantric Domain, and this time the wind seemed to be a little more noisy than the previous wind!
