Chapter 114: Purple Lotus Ancient Coins
A grand fireworks.
From the time when all the wishes of Jizo Bodhisattva bloomed and were injected into the body of the boy suspended above the Futu Cave, to the end of the curtain that lasted for a total of half an hour, countless people's eyes were cast on the top of the ancient cave.
In that magnificent ancient cave, because of the "twisting fire", the blazing wish power fell brightly, shining on the face of every Bodhisattva in the Buddha cave.
Futu Cave, as the oldest "miracle" of Lingshan, has existed for thousands of years.
How long is it that cannot be verified.
At the time when the gods fought, the two worlds competed for luck, and a place of incense to consolidate the power of the wish was extremely necessary...... But after the immortality ended and the myth withered, the light in this ancient cave was no longer enthusiastic.
In later generations, there was a great array mage who once repaired the ancient cave and has continued until now.
Flowers bloom and fall, and reincarnation bears fruit.
Someone sat down here, became enlightened in one night, and became holy on the ground.
There are people here who are withered and old, with gray hair, and have no chance to twist the fire.
The unknown ancient Sanskrit language in Buddhism once spread in the East, all the "encounters" in this world are destined by cause and effect, and there are invisible silk threads behind all living beings, and those who believe in ancient Buddha, as long as they are pious enough, can change their fate.
Since Master Void Cloud retreated, Lingshan's situation was very bad...... Master Shao Yun sat in the light of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, barely stepping out of the main hall, and the two sects of Zen and Vinaya struggled to maintain the operation of the entire Eastern Land Holy Land, and this Pure Land urgently needed a young and responsible "leader".
It's like Chen Yi of Taoism.
"From today on, you have to learn to practice, forge your body, absorb starlight, condense divinity, recite scriptures, and sword and swordsmanship......" Song Que held the young man who landed with his feet on the ground, his legs and feet were still a little trembling, he didn't give the little guy much time to relax, patted his shoulder while speaking, and motioned for the lark to take two steps by himself.
The lark raised a hand and told the ascetic who was waiting in the distance with his heart that he was all right.
The young man's face was slightly pale, his lips were dry, and he said in confusion: "I understand everything else, do I still need to learn to recite scriptures?"
He tried to stabilize his body alone, and although he was dizzy, he quickly recovered.
An amazing thing......
After he experienced the baptism of willingness, his whole body seemed to become ethereal.
Skylark vaguely felt that his strength, speed, balance, and many criteria for measuring "strong" were several times stronger than before.
"If it is divided according to the realm of Zhongzhou, this body of yours, after today's 'twisting fire', will be no different from the little gentleman of the four major academies, and the physical body can be compared with the seven realms...... That is, the cultivators of the later realm are divided into courts. ”
The lark subconsciously covered his lips, he couldn't believe it, in Zhongzhou, if he wanted to practice and become a later realm, it would take nearly ten years of hard work for an ordinary genius.
"This is the 'benefit' of Buddhist ascetics. Song Que quickly poured a basin of cold water on him, and said with a smile: "According to your realm, it is equivalent to the 'first realm' of the Great Sui, you are just a fledgling with empty treasures, and it will take time before you can spread your wings and fly high." ”
"Okay......" The lark smiled bitterly, he didn't think that he only needed to go through a short quarter of an hour to become a powerful cultivator, for him, the door to the cultivator's world was opened, and it was once an incomparably new and full of wonders
traces of the place.
"There should be no one in the world who is luckier than you. Song Que patted the little guy on the shoulder, feeling relaxed, "At most, in two years, you will be qualified to stand on the high wall of the northern city, looking at another majestic world, and Tiandu and Xiling will listen carefully to your opinion...... Your voice will be heard by both worlds. ”
The lark let out a breath and rubbed his face, still feeling a little dreamy.
"That's why you need to learn to chant sutras......" Song Que said indifferently: "In the past, you chanted to yourself, surrendered your heart ape, and calmed down your spirits, but now you need to learn to chant sutras to people outside." ”
"Someone outside?"
"Yes...... People on the outside. Those who need you. Da Keqing squatted down, pressed his hands on the lark's shoulders, stared into the young man's eyes, and said seriously: "If I leave Lingshan one day, then this place ...... Need you. ”
The lark was stunned, and he hurriedly said, "Da Keqing is leaving Lingshan?"
Song Que just smiled.
"These days, it's going to be peaceful. He looked at the lark and said, "All the way to ...... July 7, Obon. The master went out of the customs, and the Buddha lit the fire. On behalf of the entire spiritual mountain, you will light the wish fire of this floating temple statue. ”
The lark was ignorant and remembered what the big guest had said.
"I'll teach you a few things about the 'Flame Twister.' Before Obon, I won't go. Song Que said softly: "Take it easy, don't think too much." ”
The lark's shoulders were gently held by a pair of powerful palms.
There was still childishness in his eyes.
The young man asked nervously.
"Mr. Song Que, do I have a lot of things on my shoulders?"
Da Keqing was silent for a while.
He laughed, "Feeling uncomfortable?
After all, he used to be a free little guy, and he quit dust and left very early......
"Nope. ”
The lark smiled, showing his white teeth, "I love the feeling...... I want, I am needed. ”
......
......
"Your Excellency. ”
"There is a formation in the Futu Cave, and the 'eyes' of the two sects of Zen Law cannot be crossed, and the only information that can be obtained is this. ”
Tiandu's carriage finally stopped at the foot of a small hill.
Lingshan has prepared an attic specifically for the mission.
The whole hill is surrounded by stars, and the formation is propped up, forming a world of its own.
This is definitely the best place in the Lingshan world.
Most Buddhist ascetics take the path of refining their physique, and they don't use too much "starlight", so they generally don't know about starlight, and they don't care about the so-called "aura".
But the monks of the Great Sui are different, and it can be said that they have good intentions to entertain guests here.
The shadow holding the scroll lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the face of "that one".
The man in the moire robe hummed softly and sat alone on the roof of the attic, his eyes always looking into the distance.
This bamboo attic is a novelty to build, on the top of the hill, with a secret pattern to build the foundation, to ensure that the height of the building does not collapse, the dangerous wind does not move, so when night falls, the owner can enjoy the moon alone, not to be obscured by the eyes.
There is also a plaque with four characters printed in front of the attic.
"All beings at a glance".
The wind blows the sleeve robe, and the man is very interested, and he is alone admiring the spiritual mountain float
"Fireworks" in the sky above the slaughterhouse.
"Jizo Bodhisattva. ”
His voice was a little feminine, he took the scroll, waved his hand slightly, and the shadow dissipated into the wind on the roof of the attic, as if it had never come, silent and silent.
This time he left Tiandu and went to the east, and he brought with him the most elite group of "eyes".
His Royal Highness wants to see Dongtu's attitude, so he will naturally make an assessment of the situation that this envoy may encounter...... The best outcome is a compromise in all aspects of Lingshan, and the Tiandu has gathered the power of Buddhism in the form of an absolute victory, and the worst outcome is that the entire mission suffers some kind of "heavy damage".
It doesn't have to be dead.
But it means that the negotiations have collapsed.
In the future, there will be one more enemy in the sky, and if it doesn't evolve well, it will evolve into the war before the Vinaya crossed the Great Wall of the Eastern Territory two thousand years ago...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never been an optimist, and the internal struggle in Lingshan needs to be brought to an end.
That's why the mission has only arrived in the East today.
Before the envoys, neither of the Zen and Vinaya sects could make up their minds.
"Buddha...... The ...... of the Buddha who inherited the fruit position of Jizo"
The night wind blows.
The cloud-robed man who flipped through the scroll muttered to himself, "I thought that I would have to wait until Obon to meet Master Xuyun...... to complete the negotiations...... Now it seems that it doesn't seem to be that long......"
It didn't take much time to flip through the scrolls.
The cloud-robed man closed the scroll and quietly looked into the distance, the fire above the grotto was extinguished, and everything was quiet, as a "stranger" who traveled east from Zhongzhou, he had a full view of the carnival of all beings in this pure land at the highest place, but he could not empathize with this "joy".
There was indifference in his eyes.
What I was thinking about in my heart were trivial and mixed thoughts.
"Buddhism is strong again...... Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"
The cloud-robed man closed his eyes, and the picture before leaving the heavenly capital flashed in his mind.
Before leaving, I went to the palace.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is playing chess alone against a chessboard...... In the past, the information only said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince opened a teahouse, in which good chess players were occasionally invited to play, the Chu River and Han realms, black and white nineteen were involved, but they were not proficient, there were victories and defeats, and now that I think about it, this is the most failed place.
The crown prince succeeded in misleading the entire heavenly capital.
The prince, who was playing the chess game alone, gave himself a very important "thing" before he left.
In case of indecision, you can take advantage of the good luck.
He silently took out an ancient copper coin from his robe.
This copper coin has endured hundreds of years of wind and frost, entangled in mist, and when you rub your fingers, you can clearly feel that the obverse of the copper coin is engraved with a faint trace of the "Purple Lotus", and after being injected with starlight, it begins to sound loudly, with a hidden wind and thunder.
The cloud-robed man's eyes lit up slightly.
The Purple Lotus bronze coin seemed to contain incredible mystical power, and the circle of mist wrapped around the surface rippled with the sound of wind and thunder.
He silently recited in his mind the hexagram he was going to deduce.
Is it feasible to merge the Lingshan Mountains?
If so, where does it fall?
Thrown into the air, landed in the palm of his hand, and immediately closed his palm, and did not reveal the truth.
He frowned, looked in the direction of the grotto, and pronounced a name with some surprise.
"Ning...... Yi?"
