Chapter 226 Dusty Stone Chamber

The hole that goes straight down is only three feet in diameter, and there are many broken grass stems on the edge of the hole. It should be caused by Lele stepping on it inadvertently, and then the soil covering the hole suddenly collapsed.

Liu Qinghuan entered the cave entrance and slowly fell down. There were many protruding mud blocks or stones at the top of the cave wall, but the surroundings suddenly became empty when he went down, and when his consciousness swept away, it turned out to be a stone room.

"Are you okay?" Liu Qinghuan shouted to Lele and Yan Hua.

"It's okay, come and take a look." Lele had forgotten that she was still angry before, and focused all her attention on a stone door on the wall.

"Yan Mumu, you try so hard, you can't even push the door open!" Lele held a fist-sized moonstone and stood aside to direct: "You ate a whole two rabbits that Liu Qinghuan roasted at noon. Only!"

Yan Hua pressed his shoulder against the door, obviously exerting all his strength, and the veins on his neck were popping out. Hearing Lele's words, he said: "Fellow Daoist Liu's roast is so delicious..."

Liu Qinghuan fell to the ground and saw a large pile of earth and rocks on the ground paved with square stone slabs, which must have just fallen.

He walked over and saw two opposite stone doors, carved with two glaring Vajras with fierce faces and glaring eyes, each holding a magic weapon in each hand. Because of the relief used in the carving, people have the illusion that if they force their way through the door, King Kong's magical weapon will be knocked down!

Lele also ran up to push the door open, and kept making "hmm" sounds with force. Seeing Liu Qinghuan standing there laughing, he couldn't help but said angrily: "Liu Qinghuan, you're still laughing! Why don't you come over and help!"

Liu Qinghuan said amusedly: "This door shouldn't be able to be pushed open with brute force. It's better to look for a mechanism."

Lele said "Ah", tilted her head and thought for a moment before decisively giving up pushing the door: "That's right, find the mechanism quickly!"

"Oh." Yan Hua wiped the sweat from his head and said blankly: "Why don't we just use magic to break the door?"

Lele searched and knocked around the door, and said with a very serious face: "No! I'm afraid these two people on the door will beat me, they look so fierce!"

"Don't be afraid, junior sister, I will protect you!"

"I come here to protect you every day. How many can you protect? Besides, who wants you to protect me? I hate it!"

"I, I only protect my junior sister..."

Liu Qinghuan no longer cared about the brothers and sisters, took out a moonstone and walked around the stone room to check.

The stone chamber is not big, and there is a long stone platform in the middle of the stone chamber, on which stand three very meticulously carved Buddha statues, namely the Medicine Buddha of the Oriental Pure Glaze World, Sakyamuni Buddha of the Saha World, and Amitabha Buddha of the Western Paradise.

Liu Qinghuan touched the stone platform with his fingers. There was thick dust on it, indicating that no one had visited this stone chamber for hundreds of years.

At the other end of the stone chamber, a damaged stone door was split into two parts and was completely blocked by thick earth and rocks.

"Liu Qinghuan, what are you looking at?" At some point, Lele ran to Liu Qinghuan's side.

Liu Qinghuan touched his chin and looked at the three round stone slabs placed in front of the Buddhist altar, and asked casually: "Still haven't found the mechanism?"

Lele pouted and said: "There is no mechanism at all. I have searched every corner."

"Yes." Liu Qinghuan nodded and asked as if he just remembered, "How did you find this place?"

When he mentioned this, Lele put his hands on his waist and said unhappily: "I was angry that you ignored me, so I ran up there. Yan Moumu chased me, and I told him to leave, but he refused, so I said I would leave. It fell off as soon as I turned around.”

Liu Qinghuan was helpless: "Little ancestor, how could I ignore you..."

Lele stared: "That's right!"

She didn't know that she looked like a kitten when she was angry, very cute.

Liu Qinghuan couldn't understand the little girl's thoughts, so she simply threw her aside.

A stone chamber discovered by chance? But there are so many accidents in the world.

Liu Qinghuan suddenly asked: "Do you believe in Buddhism?"

"Ah? I cultivate Taoism."

Liu Qinghuan pondered: "There has been a saying since ancient times: Buddhism and Taoism belong to the same family. Although practicing Buddhism and Taoism are very different, in essence, they both advocate the elimination of desires, remain calm, cultivate the mind, and finally realize reality and truth. "

As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves, and a strong wind blew up near the stone platform, sweeping away the dust around the stone platform, including the ground and the three Buddha statues.

"Ahem! Liu Qinghuan, what are you doing? You blew my face." Lele quickly stepped back. However, when she saw Liu Qinghuan suddenly squatting down, she covered her nose and leaned over. Yan Hua also followed at this time.

I saw that the three round stone slabs placed in front of the Buddhist altar, which looked like futons, all had deeply sunken sitting marks.

Lele and Yan Hua took a breath at the same time.

Lele shook her little head in shock and said: "This, this, these monks are so powerful, they can even leave marks on the stones while meditating..."

Yan Hua touched it with his hand: "..." He was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Liu Qinghuan was also shocked. He seemed to see the monks of Qiyun Temple sitting on this stone slab hundreds of years ago, entering into meditation and comprehending nothingness without moving.

The three of them did not speak for a moment and stood silently in front of the Buddha statue.

After a while, Liu Qinghuan made a move. He walked to the stone slab in front of him and sat cross-legged on it.

The other two gave him questioning looks.

Liu Qinghuan smiled and said: "Perhaps we don't need to worry about the stone gate for now. We might as well sit here quietly for a while and understand the thoughts of those monks back then."

Lele was a little reluctant: "In such a dark place..."

However, she complained and sat down on the stone slab in the middle. Yan Hua, who always followed Lele, also sat down on the other side.

Silence fell in the stone chamber.

Of the three of them, Yan Hua was probably the one with the most peaceful mind. He fell into trance not long after sitting down.

Lele turned her little head and looked around, then lowered her head and played with her fingers. Although her mind was distracted, her mind was pure and she quickly fell into samadhi.

However, Liu Qinghuan couldn't calm down for a while. There were too many things in his mind. Zhao Xian's antidote, the hesitation of not being able to return to his master's door, and even the fate that Yun Mengze was about to face were all going through his mind.

Liu Qinghuan raised his head, facing the Medicine Buddha of the Oriental Pure Glaze World. He holds a priceless bead in his left hand and forms the seal of the three realms in his right hand. He is dressed in Buddha robes and sits in lotus position on the lotus platform. His slightly drooping compassionate gaze seems to be falling on Liu Qinghuan.

He slowly closed his eyes, got rid of distracting thoughts, and focused on guarding the mourning platform.

I don't know how long it took, but a light seemed to appear in front of my eyes, and faint Sanskrit chanting sounded all around.

He walked towards the light, and the sound of Sanskrit chanting became louder and louder. He listened carefully, but he was chanting the "Miaohua Lotus Sutra".

Liu Qinghuan had never been exposed to Buddhist scriptures, but at this moment, he understood it and started chanting along without realizing it.

At this time, a stone door appeared in front. Looking at this familiar stone door, Liu Qinghuan suddenly realized that he had entered a stone room with Lele and Yan Hua before, and he should be in meditation now.

So, he must have entered some kind of illusion or artistic conception?

Liu Qinghuan looked around. He seemed to be in a void. Except for the place illuminated by the light, everything around him was dark. And there seemed to be countless pairs of evil eyes hidden in the darkness, secretly peeping at him, trying to pull him in.

Liu Qinghuan kept walking and soon came to the stone gate. The stone door has opened a gap, and the light shines through this gap.

Liu Qinghuan pushed lightly, and the extremely thick stone door suddenly opened.

The white light was so bright that he couldn't open his eyes, and it took him a while to regain his vision. Seeing this, I couldn’t help but be surprised!
