Chapter 47: Run, boy

There were already dozens of people standing in the square outside the Heavenly King Palace, these were all people who had already walked across the stone bridge after the test, Yun Fei, Qin Qing, Sang Sang, and the old man who had been smiling on his face were impressively in the ranks. And the strange monk Hongguang, who had met outside the secret realm, meditated cross-legged on the bridge one step away from the square, and was not in a hurry to get off the bridge.

Han Fengge and the three of them waited for a long time and didn't see Han Fengge, and Mingruo Sangsang finally couldn't help but ask: "Senior sister, is that little brother of the bandit still here?"

Qin Qing comforted her and said, "Although Senior Brother Han is younger, after these days, there shouldn't be any problem with seeing that he is determined." ”

Everyone knew that it was useless to worry at this time, because those who had already walked off the stone bridge would not be able to return to it anyway.

Just as everyone was whispering, a melodious bell rang from the bell tower on the right side of the Heavenly King's Hall behind him.

Everyone was startled by the sudden sound of the bell, and looked back at the tall bell tower in the distance. A huge ancient bell, no one knocked at the moment, but it rang by itself.

Everyone was at a loss by the sudden sound of the bell, only the old man with a smile on his face said coldly: "It seems that the little doll can't come out." ”

Yun Fei looked at the old man in surprise and asked, "Why did the old gentleman say that?"

The old man smiled very meaningfully and said, "The bell you heard just now is called the 'Forget Worry Bell'. The bell rings three times, thirty-six times each time, a total of one hundred and eight sounds, which means to remove the one hundred and eight troubles of life. ”

Qin Qing was puzzled: "Then what does this bell have to do with Senior Brother Han's inability to get out?"

The old man smiled and said, "Then do you know the name of the bridge we walked on just now?"

Everyone shook their heads and continued to stare at the old man, waiting for him to continue.

The old man continued: "The bridge was called the truth of suffering, which is one of the four noble truths of suffering, concentration, extinction, and path. The Buddha said that life is short. The bridge is meant to allow people to see the sufferings of life, so that they can seek liberation as they follow the teachings of Buddhism. It's just that many of the people present in the cultivation are determined, and they will not be blinded by that bridge and that bridge, and their minds will ruin the avenue. But there is one thing you may not have noticed, the material of the bridge helps the cultivator to refine the spirit. You will know that the monk is slow to come down. Perhaps the little guy in your mouth has also discovered the mystery of this bridge, and can't resist the temptation to immerse himself in it, which is the secret hand of that bridge. ”

The old man paused and continued: "When the bell rings, it means that the stone bridge has begun to slowly disappear. If you walk out of the stone bridge after the one hundred and eight bells have sounded, you will remain on the bridge forever. How many times have you counted the bells?"

Yun Fei and the others looked at the stone bridge in front of them in shock, the first bell had already sounded thirty-six times, but there was still no shadow of Han Fengge on the stone bridge.

The second time the bell rang, the bell fell on the ears of Yun Fei and the others, but it was as difficult as a countdown.

The monk Hongguang, who was sitting at the head of the bridge, had already gotten up, but he did not step off the stone bridge, and looked back at Han Fengge, who was still meditating with his eyes closed on the stone bridge in the distance.

The third time the bell rang, Han Fengge opened his eyes and regained his senses, listening to the voice in his head: "Time is running out, do you hear that bell? If you can't get out of here before the thirty-six bells fall, you'll be trapped here forever." So, run, boy!"

Han Fengge's face was full of shock, listening to the bells ringing one after another, he didn't care about scolding, and ran desperately forward with all his strength.

The bell rang eighteen times, and the monk Hongguang, who was standing at the head of the bridge, looked at Han Fengge who was running in the distance, shook his head and said, "It's too late, it's a pity!" After speaking, he walked down the stone bridge.

There were still eight bells left, and Mingruo Sangsang was already pale and began to cry. At this time, Han Fengge's figure appeared in the distance on the bridge, and the stone bridge not far behind him was rapidly disappearing.

Although Han Fengge ran desperately, the stone bridge behind him disappeared faster, and the white of the void after the stone bridge disappeared was getting closer and closer to him, and everyone could see that he was running out of time.

At this time, Yun Fei walked to the edge of the bridge, holding the hilt of the sword with his right hand, the green tendons in his hand flared up, staring at Han Fengge who was running over quickly and the broken stone bridge behind him that was getting closer and closer.

Han Fengge had already run to the bridge, and he was only a few steps away from stepping on the edge of the square, but the broken stone bridge that disappeared was already behind him and was about to catch up with him.

Seeing that Han Fengge was about to disappear into the void with Shiqiao, Yun Fei, who was holding the hilt of the sword, suddenly pulled out his sword and slashed at the stone bridge behind Han Fengge, the nothingness that engulfed Shiqiao was blocked by his sword qi for a moment, and then continued to chase Han Fengge.

At the moment when Han Fengge's feet stepped on the square, the stone bridge behind him was completely engulfed by nothingness.

Han Fengge, who had survived the catastrophe, sat on the ground and gasped for breath, and waited for his heartbeat to calm down a little before he raised his head and said to Yun Fei: "Senior Brother Yun, thank you!"

Yun Fei looked at him and said with a strange expression: "Actually, I don't know if it will be successful." “

Han Fengge patted his chest in fear and said happily: "It's okay, it's okay!"

At this time, Ming Ruo Sangsang, who burst into tears and smiled, ran over and squatted beside Han Fengge, looked at him and said, "Little brother, are you asleep on the bridge?"

Han Fengge heard her laugh at herself like this, and cried out in her heart: "I really fucking fell asleep on the bridge!"

Sang Sang squatted beside Han Fengge, who was panting, and chattered about what he saw on the stone bridge.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Everyone in the square, including Han Fengge, looked at this innocent little girl in surprise.

Everyone knows very well in their hearts that what they have seen, heard and experienced on the stone bridge is all the unforgettable memories of the past that they have experienced. Only what such a little girl said, looking at her, it was obvious that she had never experienced anything. Now the only explanation is that this laughing girl is very likely to be the reincarnation of some great monk.

And Han Fengge was even more surprised after listening to what Sang Sang said, because part of the scene she said was something he had seen before, in the big hall in the Yellow Spring Secret Realm hidden under Kunyu Mountain, the immortal and demon battles that took place in the ancient immortal realm recorded on those stone carved murals.

Monk Hongguang walked up to Han Fengge and said to him: "I really didn't read it wrong, little donor, you have a deep Buddhist relationship, you really don't want to listen to me talk about that Buddhist scripture that is very beneficial to you?"

Han Fengge stood up and clenched his fists and refused: "Why should the master be persistent, I said that if you don't practice Buddhism, you won't practice Buddhism, even if the Buddhism that the master said is mysterious, I won't cultivate Buddha." ”

Seeing Monk Hongguang walk away quietly again, Sang Sang pursed his lips and said, "Bad monk, leper dog!"

Han Fengge was able to walk off the stone bridge at the last moment, and Yunfei and the others were also very happy in their hearts. It's just that at this time, everyone looked at the Great Compassion Temple hidden behind the main hall with a little fear, after all, they knew very little about this secret realm.

Just when everyone in the square had their own thoughts, the door of the Heavenly King Hall behind everyone squeaked open.

Everyone outside the Heavenly King Hall looked at each other, and after experiencing the Wufu Forest and this strange stone bridge outside the temple, they all knew in their hearts that there was not only a great opportunity in this secret realm, but also a danger that could kill them at any time.

Although everyone present was anxious to rush in to find the so-called great opportunity, no one wanted to be the first to rush in to be the stone that was thrown.

Seeing that everyone was afraid and hesitating, Monk Hongguang smiled contemptuously, walked slowly towards the main hall, and was the first to enter the Heavenly King Hall that was the mountain gate. He was followed by the smiling old man, and then Han Fengge and the four of them also followed into the Heavenly King Palace.

Han Fengge walked into the hall and looked up, and a solemn statue of Maitreya Buddha was enshrined in it. Behind the statue is the statue of the Dharma Protector Venerable Veda, holding the demon pestle in his right hand and his left hand on his chest.

On the left and right sides of the hall are the statues of the four heavenly kings, which is also the origin of the name of the heavenly king's hall.

The king of the Eastern Holding Kingdom holds the pipa in his left hand and holds it high above his shoulder, and the five fingers of his right hand make a plucked bullet. It's just that the pipa has been destroyed by the predecessors, and only the upper part of the left hand is left, and the lower part should be mistaken by an ignorant monk who once came here for some great magic weapon and wanted to take it away, but instead destroyed it.

The Southern Growth Heavenly King held a sword in his hand and his eyes widened angrily, which was daunting. The Western Wide-eyed Heavenly King caught a dragon in his hand, and he was majestic. The king of the north is holding a treasure umbrella.

The people outside the hall saw that nothing unusual happened after they entered the Heavenly King's Palace, so they relieved their hearts and rushed into the palace.

Just after everyone rushed into the hall, behind the beams and pillars outside the Heavenly King's Palace, a young man dressed in black walked out of his hiding place and muttered to himself, "Fortunately, I crossed the bridge earlier, otherwise it would have been very embarrassing to collide with them." ”

The monks who rushed into the main hall looked at the Heavenly King Hall that had been emptied by their predecessors, and their hearts were full of loss.

However, after the loss, everyone cheered up again and was full of confidence, after all, this is only the Tianwang Palace of the Mountain Gate, the Great Compassion Temple covers such a wide area, and the main hall of the temple is not thousands but also hundreds, and there will always be the opportunity treasure of the predecessors.

After the Hongguang monk came in, he bowed to the Maitreya Buddha enshrined in the Tianwang Palace, and he was not in a hurry to find any treasures, but looked around carefully at the exquisite murals painted on the beams, pillars, and walls.

The monks who came to hunt for the treasure saw that there was nothing left in the Heavenly King's Hall to take away, and they all hurried through the main hall and walked backwards.

Out of the main hall, the monks scattered in all directions, rushing towards the large pavilion behind the main hall.
