The two statues of Arhat King Kong are carved out of stone, not to mention thousands of catties, such statues can be placed on the high platform for thousands of years without shaking, even if they want to move, they must be more than ten craftsmen.

But these two statues actually left the altar and stood in the middle of the main hall.

You must know that at this moment, there is an empty temple in Lanruo Temple, which has been abandoned for several months, and there are no other outsiders except for the two of them today.

So it is impossible for anyone to come to the temple and move these two statues.

"Is what we saw just now true, is it really the Arhat apparition?" Ma Dong said in surprise.

"This is the only explanation, these two statues together weigh thousands of catties, which cannot be moved by human beings, and only the manifestation of Arhat can make the two such heavy statues leave the altar and appear in the middle of the main hall. Niu Er believed in what had just happened.

Ma Dong said, "If this is the case, then we should follow the instructions of the Arhat and move these two idols to the vicinity of the big pit." ”

"But this idol is very heavy, and it is not possible to rely on the two of us if you want to go over like this, you have to go back to the county to hire workers, and Lifu can do it, but I am afraid that it will take several days to come and go. ”

"This matter is not something we can decide, let's bring the golden body back first, and then report this matter to the eldest young master, the eldest young master must know what to do if he is proficient in the affairs of ghosts and gods. ”

"That's all there is to it. ”

The two of them took the golden body and immediately left Lanruo Temple.

When Ma Dong and Niu Er came to the straw hut with their golden bodies, they found that only five or six companions had built a bonfire in the straw hut and gathered together, half of them rested, and half of them kept vigil.

"Why are you all here, young master?" Ma Dong turned over and dismounted, carrying the golden body on his back.

When everyone heard the movement, they immediately became vigilant.

Seeing that it was the two of them who came back, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"It turned out that you were back, and I thought that some ghost appeared, the eldest young master is fine, he is in the cave, we called the eldest young master to come up, but the eldest young master said that he can't escape, and he must wait for you to come back, and now it's really good that you are back, and I have to quickly rescue the eldest young master from the pit." ”

One of the guards said.

Ma Dongleng paused: "What? The eldest young master fell into a hole in the ground?"

Immediately, he hurried to the side of the cave.

When I looked down, I saw a fire coming out of the deep cave, and there seemed to be a person sitting there next to me.

Although I can't see it clearly, it must be Li Xiuyuan.

"The eldest young master, the younger two have brought back the golden body. Ma Dong shouted into the hole.

Li Xiuyuan, who was sitting near the fire with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes: "Very good, I finally brought back the golden body of the empty master, I thought that you would be disturbed by ghosts on this trip, what kind of accident happened on the way, it is best to return safely now, you left the golden body of the empty master, I am useful." ”

"Yes, young master. Ma Dong took off the golden body and threw it into a hole in the ground.

Before the golden body fell into the ground, a neighing sound of a horse was heard, and a dragon horse stepped on the wall next to it and soared into the air, latching on to the package, and falling down again, making sure that the golden body was not broken.

Li Xiuyuan took the package from Ryoma's mouth, opened it and took a look, but saw that the golden body of Master Kong was bowing his head and eyes, sitting there cross-legged, although his body was thin, but it was overflowing with sandalwood, with a special breath, which made people subconsciously worship again, as if this was not a corpse in front of him, but a Buddha.

"Master Kong, although your soul has been reincarnated, but your last wish to leave a golden body is to suppress demons and protect the world, today I use your golden body here to suppress the ghosts in the underworld, I believe you will not blame me if you know it in the next life. ”

Li Xiuyuan bowed respectfully, and then placed the golden body on a stone and placed it in the gap in the underworld.

The golden body of a monk has the ability to suppress ghosts.

This ability is not the same as Li Xiuyuan's ability, his ability is born and endowed by fate, while the golden body of a high monk is acquired by cultivation, and the two are different in nature.

After the golden body was placed, Li Xiuyuan slowly withdrew from the underworld.

Although he can stay here alone and not let a ghost escape, he is a human and cannot stay here forever, so he must find a replacement.

And the golden body of the empty master is the best thing to suppress.

After leaving the underworld, some ghosts saw that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and several evil spirits sneaked up on the gap.

But when he walked into the range of the golden body of the empty master, a burst of peaceful Buddha light suddenly appeared from this golden body, and under the light of the Buddha, the ghosts in the underworld retreated one after another, and there was no way to continue to move forward.

"It worked. Li Xiuyuan said secretly in his heart.

However, the range of retreating from the ghost is only three zhang, which is not enough to cover the range of nine zhang, that is, there is still a gap here.

Unless two more golden bodies are found, this gap can be completely sealed.

"Now it's a bit of a problem. Li Xiuyuan frowned deeply.

The golden body left by the monk is not so easy to find, only the old temple that has been passed down for hundreds of years is possible, but the golden body in such a temple is not the treasure of the temple, if you want to take it away, it is undoubtedly desperate with the monks of the whole temple, they will not allow you to take the golden body.

And even if it is allowed, it is very difficult to add two more.

I looked at the ghosts and ghosts in the underworld.

It seemed that he was afraid of the golden body of the empty master, and retreated, looking like he would not dare to break into the yang world in a short time, after all, his drastic methods before made these evil ghosts see how powerful.

"It's not going to help you stay here until you close the gap. Li Xiuyuan thought secretly in his heart.

He rode the dragon horse and decided to go up and see if the helper he had invited had arrived.

Soon, sitting on the dragon horse, he soared several times, and jumped out of the hole.

"Young Master, you're fine, what's going on down there, why do you want Master Kong's golden body?"

Ma Dong bowed his hand, and then asked curiously.

"The cave below is along with the underworld, and the demons in the underworld are trying to escape through this gap, and I am guarding them below, but I am a living person, and I can't stay in the underworld for a long time, so I can only put the golden body of the empty master there to suppress the evil demons instead of me. ”

Li Xiuyuan said: "But this is a symptom but not a root cause, it won't take long to suppress it with a golden body of Master Kong, at least two more are needed." ”

"It's just that time is pressing, and I don't know where to find the two golden bodies. ”

After speaking, he shook his head helplessly.

If you can't find a way, then there are only two options, or let the evil spirits here go in and out of the yang world.

Or, he's here all the time.

No matter which choice he chooses, Li Xiuyuan can't do it.

He still has a lot of things to do, how can he stay in this one place all the time.

"By the way, the eldest young master, a strange thing happened when the two younger ones went to Lanruo Temple to retrieve the golden body before. ”

At this moment, Niu Er hurriedly said: "When the little one and Niu Er took the golden body and were about to return, they suddenly dreamed that the Vajra Arhat in the side hall next to them came out, and they asked the little one to bring their idols, saying that they could suppress the ghosts in the underworld. ”

"Oh, is there such a thing?" Li Xiuyuan said with a bit of a different color.

This should be a dream of the gods and the manifestation of the Buddha.

It's just that I don't know if this thing is true or not, if it's true, then it's naturally the best, if it's false, it may be a demon.

Although the thousand-year-old banyan tree essence of Lanruo Temple has been destroyed, but Lanruo Temple has no incense offerings, and the monks are stationed, it has become an evil place after all, and the possibility of Vajra Arhat appearing is really not high.

"Young Master, there is indeed such a thing, the little one also saw two Arhat statues walk down the altar and stand in the middle of the main hall, the statue weighs at least a few thousand catties, and it must be the power of ghosts and gods that cannot be moved by human beings. Ma Dong said again.

Li Xiuyuan muttered: "Since this matter has some credibility, let's try it and bring the two gods there." ”

"Young Master, the two statues are extremely heavy, you need to go to the county to ask for a husband, a craftsman to carry it, it's so late now, you have to invite someone at least tomorrow morning, and it will take at least three or five days to transport it here. Ma Dong said.

"yes, I almost forgot about it. Li Xiuyuan laughed at himself.

These people are ordinary people, and carrying such a heavy object is not something that can be done casually, and it takes a lot of time and energy to do it.

"What's so difficult about this, the little god can bring a statue of a god for Li Gongzi. ”

At this time, a man wearing armor and dressed like a general walked out of the darkness and saluted Li Xiuyuan.

"Which god are you?"

Li Xiuyuan also replied very politely, and then asked.

"A small mountain god in a certain place, originally became a mountain ghost after the death of the mountain hunter, because of the merit of sheltering fifteen mountain villages, worshiped by the villagers, and over time he proclaimed himself a god, tonight the little god watched the stars at night, and saw a green cloud flying with gold text, it turned out that the nobleman needed help, so the little god dared to help. ”

A certain mountain god arched his hand.

Li Xiuyuan nodded, this should be the so-called little hair god.

Since ancient times, ghosts and gods are a family, if ghosts shelter the people, do good deeds and accumulate virtues, and get the gift of incense, they can naturally become gods with incense and become a small god.

This kind of small god is not recognized by the Heavenly Palace, but only by a certain village and a certain county.

But it is not denied that this is indeed a god.

There are big and small gods, and not all gods are supreme.

"This mountain god, you came just in time, I'm going to Lanruo Temple to move a statue of a god, can you help me?" Li Xiuyuan said.

"I am willing to help the nobles, but the strength of the little god is limited, and I am afraid that I will not be able to move a god statue, and I need the help of Li Gongzi. The mountain god said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "How can I help you?"

"The little god has a skill, he can take away people's strength, Li Gongzi has seven or eight guards around him, if he can borrow the strength of the little god for a day, the little god can bear the statue of the god. The mountain god said.

Li Xiuyuan pondered for a moment, looked at the guards in the grass shed, and then asked, "Are you willing to lend a day of strength to this mountain god?"

"Everything is under the orders of the eldest young master. ”

The guards looked left and right, all looked at each other, and finally believed Li Xiuyuan without hesitation.

Li Xiuyuan nodded and said, "Is there any harm in taking away a day's strength?"

A certain mountain god said: "There is no harm, but it is just paralyzed and weak within three days, and it will be restored after three days." ”

"That's fine, you can take the strength of my guards. Li Xiu said from afar.

"The little god is ugly. ”

A certain mountain god immediately strode over, grabbed at the body of one of the guards, and somehow took out a small cyan worm, and then he threw the cyan worm into his mouth and swallowed it.

The guard who was taken away from the cyan worm suddenly felt soft all over his body, and he couldn't even stand on his feet, and sat down directly on the ground.

"I, my strength is gone. ”

The guard gasped, as if he had fought all night, and he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand.

The mountain god didn't stop, he walked around the guards one by one, and after taking out a green worm, throwing it into his mouth and swallowing it, he came to Li Xiuyuan again.

"Li Gongzi, the little god has already taken enough strength, so Li Gongzi will carry the statue of the god, and ask Li Gongzi to wait. ”

After saying that, the mountain god walked like a fly, rushed into the darkness, and rushed in the direction of Lanruo Temple.
