Chapter 111: The Buddha's Manifestation
As a representative, Xiao Yuanba said righteously: "I and Baihu are also going." Why don't you go to play without us, what kind of master, selfish!"
"Roar!" the white tiger let out a low cry and nodded in agreement.
"But the two of you don't scare people to death when you appear, Xiao Wenjing said that he also invited his friends. Said Breakaway.
"No, we're going. Xiao Yuanba and Baihu didn't give up, ignored it, and begged Mu Chen with big eyes.
Mu Chen smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, but you have to stay in our clothes pockets obediently and don't run around." ”
"Good!"
Xiao Yuanba and the white tiger nodded vigorously,
After lunch, Bai Chen walked towards the big Buddha statue.
The big Buddha statue is on top of a mountain range in Odori Mountain, and there are two options to go up, one is to take the cable car, and the other is to walk up.
It is quite far from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain, so there are many people who take the cable car. Bai Chen won't join in the fun, anyway, there are not many people who go up now, so you can use some spells to go up faster.
Bai Chen moved his muscles, twisted his neck and pinched his legs, and ran towards the mountain with a glimpse of his eyes.
"Look, is that a guy running?" said a visitor riding the cable car when he suddenly saw a fast-moving figure below.
"Really! ”
"This man is an athlete, running so fast!"
"Ah! He's already caught up with us, halfway up the mountain. ”
"Good fellow, he's faster than the cable car!"
Visitors on a cable car have started to explain.
In the end, Bai Chen reached the top of the mountain one step ahead of the first cable car.
"Look, he didn't get tired at all when he ran up, he didn't catch his breath. ”
Bai Chen heard the discussion of the people behind him, and smiled, I am already a dead man, let alone gasping for breath, I won't gasp.
Of course, he didn't give this sentence back to the tourists behind him, otherwise he would have to scare people to death, otherwise he would think that Bai Chen was a psychopath.
"Hello. ”
When Bai Chen was about to leave, a middle-aged rich man walked over, followed by a group of bodyguards.
"Is there something wrong?" Bai Chen asked.
The man smiled and replied confidently: "I will give you 30,000 yuan a month, please be my personal bodyguard." ”
Bai Chen looked at the person in front of him, with golden jewelry hanging all over his neck and hands, he looked like an upstart, and his attitude was arrogant and he couldn't speak. When he came up, he wanted to talk about money, and he didn't ask Bai Chen if he agreed, thinking that he could bluff Bai Chen by giving more money. Excessive self-confidence is conceit.
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in being your bodyguard. Bai Chen cleanly refused and turned to leave.
The man immediately rushed up and grabbed Bai Chen's clothes and said, "I said that you don't know what to do, it's your honor that I can take a fancy to you, what an honorable thing to be my bodyguard!"
"Let go. ”
Bai Chen looked at the man in front of him coldly, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart, how could he always meet these strange people from early to present today!
The man didn't let go and continued: "I advise you to think about it, I have a conference to attend these days and need your help. And there may be something in it that interests you. ”
"Oh, what is it?" Bai Chen suddenly became interested.
The man looked around cautiously, pulled Bai Chen aside, and instructed the bodyguards to guard and not let others approach.
The man whispered, "I'm going to an auction. It is said that the last item sold was an elixir. ”
"Elixir!"
Bai Chen glanced at the man in front of him vigilantly, and found that he didn't have any traces of cultivation, but why did he know about the elixir, and why did he believe in such a thing?
"Heh, how can there be any elixir in this world, why haven't I seen any immortals, I don't believe it!" Bai Chen said deliberately.
The man looked at Bai Chen mysteriously and asked in a low voice, "Actually, I believe that there are other beings besides us ordinary people, and I think you should be a person who cultivates spells, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, what kind of spell, I'm just good at physical strength, hahaha......" Bai Chen's heart suddenly became weak.
"If you don't admit it, forget it, but if you think about it again, as my bodyguard, I will take you to see the world, and it would be good to be able to see the elixir!" the man suggested again.
"You're not a cultivator, and you're not going to shoot the elixir, you have so many bodyguards, why are you looking for bodyguards?" Bai Chen was quite surprised by this.
The man thought for a while, pretended to sigh deeply, and said, "Alas, you won't understand the pain of our rich people, and every year the people who come out of the auction will be robbed, and of course I need a lot of people to protect me!"
"How, do you?"
Bai Chen thought that the elixir should be the essence of a certain high-level cultivator, but why did it break away from itself and be auctioned off? Something must have happened in this. Moreover, if the elixir is taken by people with ulterior motives who practice secret magic, it will definitely cause endless harm.
Thinking of this, Bai Chen felt that he should still go and have a look.
"Okay, I'll go with you. But I still have something to do today, how many times will the auction start?"
"Two weeks later. The man replied.
Bai Chen nodded and continued: "Okay, I'll come to you in two weeks, and I'll call my friend again, he's much better than me. ”
This is naturally Mu Chen.
The man's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he nodded vigorously, "Okay, okay! This is my business card, when the time comes, I will call you, and I will send someone to pick you up." The man pulled out a business card.
"Yuanshan Company, Jiang Qishan. ”
Bai Chen accepted the business card, said goodbye and left.
Jiang Qishan, who turned around and left, completed the goal of the trip, but he didn't expect that he had already achieved it before he made a wish to the Buddha just after going up the mountain. It was really the Buddha who appeared, and Jiang Qishan's whole body was full of joy.
He didn't doubt that there were cultivators in this world, and it was rare to be able to invite them without spending a lot of money. When Jiang Qishan met Bai Chen today, he felt that he was a cultivator, this was the vision of a businessman, and he also believed in his own vision.
"Hmph! Look how you're still fighting me. ”
Bai Chen came to the front of the Buddhist temple, at this time the incense was still in its prime, and people lined up to worship the Buddha.
With so many people making wishes, how busy the Buddha is! Bai Chen found it very interesting.
Bai Chen bought three incense sticks and lined up into the Buddha hall, only to see that this big Buddha is surrounded by gold, it is said that the ancestors were originally carved in stone, and later this big Buddha became famous, so the Buddha statue was repaired, and the gold leaf was wrapped around it. And a Buddhist temple was built here.
The whole body of the Buddha is carved vividly, just like a real Buddha sitting here, with his eyes closed and his lips slightly open, as if he is meditating and chanting.
A smile appeared on Wei Qi's lips, looking kind and stable, but the more Bai Chen looked at it, the more he felt a little strange and uncomfortable.
"Young man, I've met you again!" Bai Chen was observing the Great Buddha's distraction, and one of them recognized him.
It was the old man Bai Chen had helped in the morning.
"It's Grandpa!"
Bai Chen put three sticks of incense on the incense burner at will, and walked out with the old man.
"Grandpa, why haven't you gone back yet?"
The old man smiled bitterly a few times, and replied in an old and hoarse voice: "I finally came in and saw the big Buddha, I want to stay here for a while, chanting for my son, hoping that the Buddha can hear my prayers." ”
Bai Chen nodded, not knowing how to tell the old man the truth.
Bai Chen has observed just now, this Buddha has no aura around his body, presumably the appearance of the Buddha is a gimmick made by the scenic spot in order to attract customers.
But how can you tell the old man that worshipping this Buddha is useless?
At this moment, an exclamation suddenly came from the Buddhist hall.
"The Buddha has appeared!
With this exclamation, the people outside the Buddha Hall rushed into the Buddha Hall one after another.
"The Buddha has appeared! Young man, let's go and see. The old man anxiously pulled Bai Chen in.
Bai Chen carefully protected the old man from the crowd and hit the old man, and finally the two of them arrived outside the Buddhist hall, which was already crowded with people, so there was no need to go in.
Bai Chen took the old man to find a good position outside and looked inside.
"Big Buddha, Big Buddha really opened his eyes!" the old man shouted excitedly.
Earlier, it was rumored that this big Buddha would open his eyes, but Bai Chen didn't believe it first, but he didn't expect to really open his eyes. The big Buddha has open eyes, but the eyes carved in stone look down on all beings as if they were real.
The people present all knelt on the ground and began to make wishes to the Buddha. The old man also knelt down and prayed for his son to be restored.
"Young man, the Buddha has appeared, kneel down and make a wish to the Buddha!" the old man saw Bai Chen standing still, so he hurriedly reminded him.
Bai Chen smiled at the old man, "Grandpa, just make a wish, don't worry about me." ”
Bai Chen looked up at the Buddha statue again, and the strange thing was that the eyes of the big Buddha seemed to move, and he who was originally looking into the distance was now staring at Bai Chen with his eyes, staring at Bai Chen.
When people raised their heads again, the Buddha closed his eyes again.
"I am so lucky to see the Buddha appear today!"
People worshiped and worshipped the Buddha, and reluctantly left the Buddha hall. Even if their wish is not fulfilled, the spectacle they see today can become their lifelong conversation.
"I'll go back first, young man. The old man said goodbye to Bai Chen, "Thank you so much today, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to witness the Buddha's manifestation with my own eyes, I wish you all the best." ”
Bai Chen nodded and watched the old man leave.
After most of the crowd dispersed, Bai Chen walked into the Buddha hall again, stood in front of the big Buddha, looked at the Buddha statue coldly, and whispered: "It's just a three-hundred-year-old demon spirit, who came here to coax people." ”
When he looked at the Big Buddha just now, Bai Chen had already seen the clue.
There are indeed other beings in this Buddha, but they are not really Buddhas, but the wishes that people have made to the Buddha for thousands of years. Countless wishes converged to form a demon spirit.
Since the demon spirit was formed by the human mind and the breath of a human being, Bai Chen did not feel the spiritual power on it at first. It wasn't until the Buddha opened his eyes that Bai Chen saw it.
