There is a big Buddha in Longmen, facing the Yi River.

This Buddha has a history of more than 1,000 years.

The nearly 20-meter-tall majestic Buddha statue sits on the bank of the West Mountain of Longmen, and its eyes are sprinkled forward, as if it is looking at the green mountains of the East Mountains on the other side of the river.

At night, the Yihe River in front of the Big Buddha flows forward, and pedestrians gradually become scarce.

After ten o'clock, the two mountains of Longmen and the banks of the Yi River, which were crowded with tourists during the day, suddenly became gloomy, and there was no one in sight.

At this time, on the south side of the West Mountain, there is a small temple, Longyin Temple.

After the last pilgrim left, the lights in the wings of Longyin Temple were extinguished one by one, and the monks in the temple began to clean up.

In the main hall, an old monk sitting cross-legged on a futon slowly took off his robe, revealing a simple monk's robe inside.

He blew out the candles in the main hall one by one, carefully closed the door of the temple, and walked towards the outside of the temple.

When he arrived at the temple gate, a deep voice stopped him: "Kong Ming, where are you going?" ”

The old monk turned around, waved one hand at the place where the voice sounded, bowed down and said, "Senior brother, I'm going to save people's lives." ”

"Don't go! That man is not worth saving! ”

The voice rang out in the air, but there was no figure in sight.

The old monk maintained that posture of bowing, like a sculpture without moving, he said: "Senior brother, Buddhism has clouds, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, in this world, how can there be people who are not worth saving?" ”

"You go, the whole temple will suffer with you!"

A smile appeared on the old monk's face and said, "I have lost the robe of the presiding officer in the temple, and now I am just an ordinary monk. ”

"Today, even if the calamity comes up, it is only my business, and it will never involve the temple."

The empty voice seemed to be a little angry: "Your own life, isn't it your life?!" ”

The old monk still bowed, but he looked up at the stars in the sky, and said indifferently: "Senior brother, the four major monks are empty, and I have already put life and death out of the way. ”

The voice was silent.

The old monk bowed slightly, turned around and walked outside the temple.

When he walked up the steps of the mountain road outside the temple gate, the voice still seemed to be a little unwilling, and asked angrily: "You are not usually so stupid! ”

"Why do you want to provoke that ...... for the sake of a wicked person today?"

The voice that sounded out of thin air seemed to be very taboo about a certain name, and it was impossible to say it in the middle of it.

The old monk with the Dharma name "Kong Ming" walked to the side of the mountain road guardrail, looked at the Yi River in the night, and the thousand-year-old Buddha located at the foot of the mountain, and his voice was like an ancient well without waves: "Senior brother, this dragon gate is my Buddhist resort." ”

"There are a total of ten temples up and down the Dragon Gate, thousands of monks, and the Buddha nature is so powerful, how can you watch the ghosts come to the door and ask for people's lives in front of my Buddha?"

Kong Ming's voice was so flat that it didn't have any tone at all, but it could clearly feel the anger inside!

When Kong Ming began to descend the mountain, the voice that sounded in the temple became weaker and weaker: "But, Kong Ming, that is a wicked person!" Villain! ”

Kong Ming walked down the mountain and said indifferently: "Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha on the ground." ”

"The bitter sea is boundless, and the shore is the back."

He hadn't walked far when suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind him.

I saw a few old monks leading a group of young monks to chase after him, "Abbot! We're going with you! ”

Kong Ming frowned and shouted, "It's not big, it's not small!" Get back! No one is allowed to leave the temple gate tonight! ”

The monks were silent.

Seeing Kong Ming's persistent look, everyone silently turned around and returned.

Soon, the sound of chanting sounded in the Longyin Temple on the mountain.

......

Eleven o'clock, in front of the Big Buddha.

From the statue of the Big Buddha to the bank of the Yi River, there are a total of one hundred and eight steps.

Looking at the steps in front of him, Feng Liang was in good spirits.

"It's finally here, it's here! Master Kongming is waiting for me up there! ”

He muttered to himself excitedly, and walked up the steps, boom!

Behind him, there was the sound of spraying that seemed to be the water of the Yi River.

There are more than 100 steps, fast and fast, slow and slow, when Feng Liang walked to the Big Buddha, he saw Kong Ming sitting cross-legged with his back to the Big Buddha.

Kong Ming closed his eyes, turned the Buddhist beads in his hand, and said something in his mouth, and there was a bamboo sutra in front of him.

Feng Liang had a strong look of joy on his face, and hurriedly walked over and said, "Master Kong Ming! Sorry to keep you waiting! ”

Opening his eyes, Kongming's gaze crossed Feng Liang and looked directly at Yihe behind him.

The surface of the river was reflected in the starlight, and the emerald green water flowed forward, and the sound was non-stop.

Kong Ming stood up with the Buddhist scripture in his hand, crossed Feng Liang, stared at the river in front of him, and said lightly: "Master Feng, you came a little later than the agreed time." ”

Feng Liang hurriedly apologized and said, "Sorry master! Traffic jam on the way here! ”

Kong Ming raised his hand and said, "It's just a trivial matter, you came to my Buddhist resort this time, for?" ”

"Didn't you tell the master before? I want to ask for a jade Buddha to keep me safe. Looking at Kong Ming, Feng Liang's eyes lit up with eager expectations.

However, Kong Ming's next words made Feng Liang's heart suddenly cold: "Master Feng, your safety, the Jade Buddha can't keep it." ”

"What?!"

Feng Liang was surprised: "Master, what does this-what does this mean?" You are a Buddhist resort here, especially the Jade Buddha of your Longyin Temple is dressed as a god, is it, is it fake?! ”

Kong Ming sighed, turned around, raised his hand and stroked Feng Liang's eyes, and said, "Master Feng, look at the river water, what is it?" ”

Feeling the coolness coming from his eyes, Feng Liang turned his head in shock, only to see that under the bright starlight, in the turquoise river, there was a hideous water ghost tied to the wooden box and covered with a pale body!

The water ghost was constantly slapping the water with his hands, making a "bang" and "bang" sound.

Feng Liang finally knew what the sound of "bang" running water he heard along the way!

At this time, Kong Ming said abruptly: "Little Jade Buddha, it is naturally not a problem to expel some ghosts and wild spirits and ghost remnants, but if you deal with the fierce ghosts that have been refined and cultivated by people, it will not be very good......"

"Master Feng, the ghost baby you invited...... It's so fierce! ”

Hearing Kong Ming say this, and then looking at the powerful ghosts in the river, Feng Liang suddenly panicked!

He was at a loss for a while, grabbed the empty monk's robe and said, "Master! You must save me, save me! ”

"I'm sincere to the Buddha! Monks have compassion in their hearts, you can't see death without saving it, Master! ”

Kong Ming pressed Feng Liang's hand and asked, "Master Feng, as long as you promise the poor monk three things, tonight, the poor monk will fight for his own life, and he will definitely protect your life!" ”

Feng Liang let out a sigh, he seemed to be grasping the straw for survival, "Master, you say!" Not to mention three, thirty or three hundred! ”

Crash!

The water ghost in the river slapped the water again, and the pale grimace looked at Feng Liang in front of the Buddha and began to smile.

Feng Liang trembled so much that he felt as if his breathing had become difficult!

Seeing this, Kong Ming slapped him on the back, snap!

Crash!

A large amount of water stains squirted out of Feng Liang's body, wetting the feet of the two of them!

Feng Liang suddenly returned to normal!

Kong Ming was shocked: "You encountered a windfall on the road?!" ”

Feng Liang panicked: "Yes, yes!" But I didn't take it, I didn't take it! ”

He shouted vigorously: "Master, save me, save me!" Help me! ”

Kong Ming sighed: "It's not that you didn't take it, it's that someone won't let you take it!" Master Feng, listen up, these three things for me! ”

"First, don't commit murder in the future!"

"Second, don't take ill-gotten gains in the future!"

"Third, for the rest of your life, you will devote yourself to the Buddha!"

"Master Feng, for these three things, you may promise me?"

Feng Liang nodded again and again: "Yes, yes!" Please save me, Master! Don't worry, master, I mean what I say! ”

"Actually, master, I—I originally planned to wash my hands in the golden basin, so I went to ask for that fortune!"

"Master, master! I still have more than three million in cash, and I, I gave it all to the master's temple, just asking for peace in this life! ”

"Master save me, save me!!"

Kong Ming nodded, "Master Feng, Longmen has hundreds of millions of pilgrims every year, and hundreds of millions of meritorious incense, there is no shortage of your incense money, just keep it yourself!" ”

"What I want is your heart to the Buddha!"

As he spoke, Kong Ming took Feng Liang's hand and walked all the way back to the big Buddha, and asked him to kneel on the futon in front of the Buddha!

He asked Feng Liang behind him again, "Master Feng, let me ask you again, are you sure that you haven't taken any ill-gotten gains along the way?" ”

Feng Liang, who was already frightened, said again and again: "Sure, sure!" Master, I, I met that one, I really didn't take it, I really didn't take it! ”

"Good! If you really don't get any windfall, then this terrible ghost has no reason to ask for your life! ”

Kong Ming himself turned around and stood behind him, looked at the evil ghost hidden in the water of the Yi River, and said resolutely: "Master Feng! ”

"You don't want to go anywhere before this big Buddha!"

"Today, the poor monk wants to see, in this Buddha resort, what can a drowned water ghost do to you?!"

Crackling!

As Kong Ming spoke, a thunderclap suddenly sounded in the sky above the Dragon Gate, reflecting the night as if it were day!

Then, the wind rises and the rain comes!

Feng Liang, who was kneeling on the futon, trembled and was shocked, and turned around to reveal a shocked face!

And the old monk standing behind him, dressed in a simple monk's robe, holding a scroll of bamboo slips of Buddhist scriptures, his face was extremely indifferent!

Even though the monk's robe swayed violently in the sudden wind and rain, his body still stood like a mountain, standing still!

11:50!

Whoa, whoa!

The water of the Yi River is like a wave of the sea, constantly surging huge waves, wave after wave, all swept towards the big Buddha on the shore!
