Chapter 1027 Fire Offering
Jiujianxian was happy to adopt a daughter. Li Xiaoyao and Lin Tiannan came forward to congratulate him. The atmosphere suddenly became lively. The three of them chatted with the Tiangui Emperor for a few more words. They felt more and more that this child was as innocent as a piece of paper. She was so cute and silly that she doubted The heart is greatly reduced.
As a result, the little female ghost successfully blended into the team and followed them into the corridor and into the fifth floor of the maze. She also volunteered to lead the way for a few people, further winning the goodwill of the few who were worried about the difficulty of navigating the maze.
"Sister Xiaoqian, you just mentioned that you met a passing monk and said, 'There is no sorrow in life, no suffering in death.' Can you elaborate on it?"
When several people became familiar with each other, Li Xiaoyao asked quickly. In fact, he had noticed the monk mentioned by the little ghost inadvertently just now, but the atmosphere was rather awkward at that time, so he refrained from asking.
The Heavenly Ghost Emperor said in his heart: "You brat, you should call me Grandpa!", but he was afraid of being exposed and held back his anger. He said expressionlessly: "Just an hour ago, a monk passed by here escorting two girls. I was afraid of being saved, so I hid aside and happened to hear him using these words to persuade one of the women."
Li Xiaoyao was stunned and said in astonishment: "Is it sister Yueru? Did Zen Master Luo release her from the alms bowl? But how come there are two girls?"
The Heavenly Ghost Emperor said: "I recognize one of the girls. Her name is Jiang Wan'er. She is a monster born in the tower like me. I don't recognize the other one."
"What kind of clothes does this girl you don't know wear and what does she look like?"
Li Xiaoyao asked anxiously.
The Heavenly Ghost Emperor gave a rough description, saying that the woman was wearing white clothes, white trousers, and a green blouse. She had long black hair, and the ends of her long hair were tied up with a red rope...
Upon hearing this, several people realized that this was not Lin Yueru's usual dress, and they were convinced that Luo Feng had released Lin Yueru from the alms bowl and took her with him to explore the demon tower.
Li Xiaoyao suddenly felt an ominous premonition and asked quickly: "Then the monk is so good, why do you say, 'There is no sorrow in life, no pain in death'?"
The Heavenly Ghost Emperor said: "It seems that he is persuading the girl not to be afraid of death, saying that as long as she sincerely dedicates herself and completes the fire ceremony, she will not only be able to eliminate the many karmas of 'greed, hatred, ignorance, jealousy, and pride', but also be able to eliminate all karma for all living beings." If you pray for blessings during disasters and obtain great merits, you will definitely be rewarded in the next life, and you may even be reborn as a deity."
Lin Tiannan asked doubtfully: "Master Luo did say that Yue Ru was about to suffer a disaster and that she might die early. Does he want to perform a ritual for Yue Ru in the Demon Locking Tower to help her get rid of the disaster?"
Li Xiaoyao shook his head nervously and said: "That's not right. Why do I feel that Master Luo's words don't seem to mean this! If he wants to do something for Yueru to ward off disasters, then why is he holding her captive? And why does he use the words 'life is not a sorrow, death is a waste'" Why bother to persuade her? By the way, what kind of ceremony is the fire offering? "
The Jiujianxian thought about it and replied: "The Buddhist fire offering ceremony is to put food or various items into the fire, and the fire will burn them out. It is a way of offering sacrifices to the Buddha or the protector."
As a person in the religious world, Jiujianxian is quite familiar with all kinds of knowledge about Buddhism. He knows a little bit about it and answered it after just a little recall.
Li Xiaoyao felt more and more bad, and the ominous premonition became stronger, and he quickly asked: "Xiaoqian, what else did you overhear, tell us quickly!"
The Heavenly Ghost Emperor continued: "The girl cried after hearing the advice, saying that she couldn't let go of her father and brother Xiaoyao, and begged the monk to let her go, but the monk didn't know what magic he used. After chanting a few spells, the girl was photographed. Live in your soul and be controlled by him like a walking zombie, follow him obediently."
"This is too weird!" Li Xiaoyao trembled: "Why do you feel that Master Luo wants to harm Yueru? Otherwise, why would sister Yueru be so frightened that she cries and begs?"
The phone snail in the ear of the Heavenly Ghost Emperor once again transmitted the words Luo Feng taught her to relay, repeating it like a repeater: "Ah, by the way, the monk also mentioned that as long as the fire offering is used to support the guardian Mahakala and the great With the mighty King Kong, you can gain the blessing of supreme demon-subduing power. It is no longer a matter of suppressing the demons in the Demon Locking Tower. You can even subdue the earth-line demon cave and suppress the demon world..."
"Dharma protector Mahakala? Yamantaka?"
The more the Jiujianxian listened, the more frightened he became, and he said in horror: "Oh no, that monk is probably going to burn Lin Yueru with a fire! He is using the evil ancient method of Tantric Buddhism, which is to use the physical fire of a pure virgin." Offer to protect the Dharma in exchange for Moko Dali, who can subdue demons in all realms!"
The protector of Mahakala, also known as Mahakala, is regarded as the incarnation of the wrathful demon-conquering Tathagata in Tantric Buddhism. He has multiple arms and angry eyes. He is one of the gods of war in Buddhism.
Yamantaka is regarded as the wrathful aspect of Manjushri Bodhisattva. Because it can subdue demons, it is called great power, and it has the power to protect good, so it is also called great virtue.
The image of the Prison-Suppressing King and the image of the Demon King incarnated by Zen Master Qianye are more or less based on the Dharma appearances of Mahakala Dharma Protector and Yamantaka Vajra.
These two Buddhist protectors, Angry Eye Vajra, in some Tibetan and Tantric sects, the fire ritual has special rules for human sacrifice, such as human skin drums, human bone rosary beads, human head necklaces (the one of Sha Monk), human blood rouge , human bone bowls and other ritual utensils are perfect sacrifices for fire offerings.
When the Jiujianxian explained in detail the origins of the two protectors and the esoteric rumors, Li Xiaoyao and Lin Tiannan were horrified and turned pale.
Based on the vague statement of the Heavenly Ghost Emperor, they had to suspect that Zen Master Luo wanted to sacrifice Lin Yueru on the spot in the Demon Locking Tower in exchange for the boundless power of gods and Buddhas.
The special dedication of the fire offering has the four great merits of "breathing, increasing, embracing, and punishing". It is said that the fire offering can extinguish disasters and eliminate disasters such as earthquakes, wind, fire, water, etc., and wars in the world.
The secret method of Tantric Buddhism has enhanced the blessing power to the extreme. Zen Master Naluo wanted to create a prosperous age for the human world. By sacrificing a little girl, he could use the supreme blessing power to subdue the demons in the world and eliminate the disasters in the world. No matter how you calculate it, it is a good deal.
Lin Tiannan's eyes were red, and the fingers holding the hilt of the sword turned white. He said with hatred: "I was deceived by that demon monk and suffered so much! He also said that Yue Ru was in danger. It turned out that he wanted to use Yue Ru's innocent sacrifice in exchange for the Buddha. Bless me! Now I understand that Yueru’s disaster was planned by him!"
Jiu Jianxian also turned pale and said: "I have observed your daughter with the technique of looking at the Qi. The girl is indeed covered by clouds of calamity above her head. She is the one destined for calamity by heaven. It is precisely because of this that Zen Master Luo chose She was used as a sacrifice in exchange for greater blessings!"
Li Xiaoyao almost burst into tears and said at a loss: "Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, we must stop Luo Yaoseng, but we must not let him burn sister Yueru to death!"
The free reasoning of the three "ancient detectives" really connected all the previous doubts, as if they had guessed the truth.
The little female ghost blinked and suddenly said: "Even if that monk really wants to kill one person to save the world, there seems to be nothing wrong with using one life in exchange for the well-being of hundreds of millions of people in the human race, right?"
"Uh... this... this is different... it's too cruel... it's so unfair..."
"That's sister Yueru. She is innocent and was forced to do so. This is absolutely wrong!"
"Whether it's right or wrong, why should I sacrifice my daughter? I'm just a daughter!"
