Seventeen years ago.

Sui Mountain in Liangzhou is dyed fiery red in the setting sun.

The sound of the bell alarms the birds in the forest.

Large numbers of birds flew out of the forest, like a huge dark cloud.

Under the fiery sunset, there is a mysterious and spectacular scene.

Countless pilgrims watched this spectacle in front of the White Camel Temple.

Sui Mountain sees this scene every evening, and every morning, a large flock of birds flies back.

Pilgrims rumored that these birds were all sinful people in their previous lives.

After their deaths, they were punished by Lord Yama and threw themselves into the path of animal life. But there are always some Meng Po soup that have not been drunk thoroughly, and there is still a little memory.

In order to be reincarnated as an adult in the next life, they fly in every morning to listen to the Buddha bell and the monks in the temple chanting. I left every evening because I was worried about my sins and disturbed the meditation of the monks of the monastery.

Under such a legend, and the scenery of Sui Mountain is one of the best in Liangzhou, so there is never a lot of incense in the entire White Camel Temple.

You must know that the history of the White Camel Temple is older than the existence of the Three Kingdoms.

The entire Sui Mountain has a radius of 300 miles, which is regarded as the territory of the White Camel Temple.

This area is the only permanent tax-free area in Datang.

The special treatment of the imperial court undoubtedly cast another layer of mystery on the White Camel Temple.

And every month, the host here will carry out a divination, the divination of the White Camel Temple, which is a first-class quasi, and even sometimes, it is difficult to find a signature.

But the White Camel Temple has a rule that has been passed down for thousands of years.

After the unitary time, no one should be left alone on the mountain.

As long as anyone is found to be on the mountain after the unitary hour, they will be permanently banned from entering the mountain.

On this day, after seeing the strange sight of the birds leaving the mountain, the pilgrims knew that it was time to leave.

There is no need for the people of the White Camel Temple to take the initiative, these pilgrims who know the rules have already begun to accompany each other and leave Sui Mountain one after another.

The monks on the mountain will pay attention to whether anyone is secretly staying.

The monks at the entrance of the mountain will record the number of people entering and leaving each day to ensure that the number is accurate, and no one remains on the mountain.

This rule may seem strange, but because it has existed since the beginning, the pilgrims near the White Camel Temple have also become accustomed to it.

On that day, Qiu Yunji returned to the White Camel Temple after dark.

He went to the Divine Pavilion that day.

He bought a lot of soul pills.

Because "they" need to be fed. This is a huge expense for the White Camel Temple.

The land of 300 miles was contracted to other families, and although the annual rent was a lot, it was far from meeting the expenses of the White Camel Temple.

Therefore, as a contemporary host, he also needs to go to the Divine Pavilion to pick up jobs to replenish funds.

And that day, Qiu Yunji was very tired, and after making sure that his disciples had checked clearly and that no one was left in the mountain, he did not use his soul power to check the situation of the temple one last time as usual.

As usual, arranging for the disciples to be around for the night, Qiu Yunji poured the soul pill into a purple gold bowl and placed it in the main hall, and then sealed the door and went out himself.

There is also a door at the back of this hall.

But when the door opened, it was a cliff, and it was impossible for anyone to walk into this position.

It's just that that day, after Qiu Yunji left, a little monk came over with a person.

This little monk has a delicate face, a boy and a girl, and is handsome and extraordinary.

And he took the hand of another monk behind him, and the small hand with his sleeves exposed looked very white and tender, as if mutton fat.

"That's it. ”

As he spoke, the diminutive monk who followed him raised his head.

Under the moonlight, you can clearly see what kind of monk is here?

The curved willow eyebrows, the straight nose, the star-like eyes, and the ruddy lips under the moonlight carry a seductive atmosphere.

That delicate face is obviously a young girl.

"I'll tell you, there's absolutely no one here at night!"

"I've heard my brother say that no one is allowed to come in here at night. As long as anyone is found to dare to enter, they will be immediately expelled from the White Camel Temple forever. ”

When the girl heard this, she thought that the little monk was not afraid of violating the rules and brought herself over, so she couldn't help but grab the little monk's neck with some emotion and imprint a deep kiss on his mouth.

"You've been so nice to me. ”

The girl's lips and flaps were gently separated, and the tips of the two noses touched, with beautiful water stains between their lips and teeth.

The little monk's face was a little red, and he looked at the girl stupidly, and said, "There is a Buddha manifestation here at night." ”

"There was absolutely no one at night, and the host would come in once a day and leave. ”

"But I snuck in before, and I could hear people chanting here every midnight. ”

"I asked some of the old people in the temple, and they said, ah, it is the apparition of the Buddha, and during the day people come to offer incense, and at night the Buddha will come and sing blessings and bless the people who come to offer incense during the day. ”

As he spoke, the little monk tightened the girl's hand and said affectionately: "Even if you are not a Buddha, you must be a powerful Buddhist practitioner, just like those immortals who come and go." ”

"As long as we wait until the sound of chanting appears inside, go to the door and prostrate and pray, the Buddha will definitely save your mother!"

"Hmm!"

The girl nodded deeply.

Her mother was terminally ill, and even her wealthy father had no way to save her. The famous doctors of the entire Tang Dynasty have said that their mother can live for a month at most.

In the past month, for the sake of my mother, I have come to the White Camel Temple every day to pray for blessings.

Although it didn't work, I got to know this very handsome little monk.

Although the ignorant emotion dilutes a trace of the sorrow in the girl's heart, the grief that may have lost her mother cannot be smoothed out.

The little monk who also fell in love for the first time thought of the legend in the temple in order to help the girl.

The legend of the Buddha chanting at midnight.

The little monk was new, and in his eyes the Buddha must have been omnipotent.

As long as you can find it and save a life, it should be easy. Even if he is discovered by the temple later, it doesn't hurt to kick himself out, anyway, he wants to return to the vulgar and never abandon the girl.

That night, the two hid among the flowers outside the main hall, avoiding the monks who were the last to patrol before midnight.

When midnight came, there was a sudden sound of Si Si Suo in the main hall.

The little monk knew that it was the sound of the thin ball being moved.

Someone...... Enter the main hall!

But the little monk, as a person from the White Camel Temple, clearly knew that there was a cliff behind this hall.

It is the mountain behind the White Camel Temple, and it is a forbidden place for everyone.

No one can enter the back mountain.

Because there is no way down there, only a near-vertical cliff.

But under the moonlight, there were many people in the hall.

A figure was cast on the windows of the doors and windows of the main hall under the light of the moonlight.

A thin voice came through the crack in the door.

But what made people sweat coldly stood up was that the voice was a little like a human scream.

It's stuffy, like a cry after being covered by a quilt.

The girl's face turned a little pale, and the little monk held her hand tightly and said, "Don't worry, it's okay." ”

"Hmm. ”

The two of them waited for the sound of tea among the flowers.

At this time, the legendary chanting sound finally sounded in the main hall.
