Chapter 104 Young Monk (Please Subscribe)
How could Xu Nian not understand now that the crouching shadow was not here at all, and this was not the so-called sequence tower. He was just being played.
When he thought of this, his anger in his heart became stronger. His face was extremely ugly, and his fists were clenched. He wished he could slap that bastard to death.
However, it was too late to say these things now. As he came to the top of the mountain, it seemed that something was awakened. He heard a roar, and the temple shook. Then he felt that he was locked by a mental wave.
Yes, it was locked.
This is a very strange feeling, as if the other party had engraved a mark on your spiritual power, and there was a feeling that you could not get rid of it no matter what.
Xu Nian's face was ugly. He knew that he could not escape, so he took a deep breath, holding a shield in one hand and holding a black long sword in the other hand. The black light on the sword was fluctuating, and it would send out a thunderbolt at any time.
However, the expected attack did not appear. Although the temple was shaking violently and the spiritual power that locked him became more and more crazy, there was no sign of any creature coming out.
Xu Nian did not dare to be careless. He had no intention of entering the temple or leaving. Instead, he stared at the gate of the temple.
At this time, there was a slight sound of footsteps in the temple, and then, under Xu Nian's shocked eyes, a young monk with white hair and beard came out with his hands clasped together and expressionless.
He looked at Xu Nian, without sadness or joy.
Faced with this situation, Xu Nian took a breath and did not dare to be careless at all. He said in a deep voice: "Master, I am sorry for your visit."
The young monk still had no expression on his face and said calmly: "You are too polite. If you don't mind the poverty of the small temple, you can stay in the temple for a few days."
Xu Nian didn't even want to go in, how could he dare to go in, and directly refused: "Master, you are too polite. I have something urgent to do, so I will leave first."
As he said that, he was ready to retreat in the direction of the mountain road.
However, the young monk's face darkened and he said coldly: "Donor, this is not right. Since you have come to the small temple, how can you not burn incense in the temple? This is disrespectful to the Buddha!"
Xu Nian's mind was alert, and he felt the fluctuation of the spiritual power that locked on him again. After confirming that it was not the monk in front of him, he was more cautious and shook his head and said: "Master, you misunderstood. I am sincere to the Buddha, so I dare not blaspheme. As for burning incense? I accidentally forgot it when I came out this time. I am really ashamed. Otherwise, I will go down the mountain to buy it now, and then come up to burn incense and worship."
"No need, there is incense in the temple."
As he said, the young monk turned aside and made a "please" gesture.
Seeing this posture of Xiang Yu inviting Liu Bang to the Hongmen Banquet, Xu Nian was really a little hesitant for a while, wondering whether he should venture into the tiger's den in front of him.
According to his habit, a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, so he usually retreated directly. However, since this time he came here was arranged by Fu Xing Zhiying, that is, by the eldest lady, he didn't know what the eldest lady was thinking, but it was not appropriate to leave like this.
So, after thinking for a while, he gritted his teeth and showed a pious smile on his face: "In this case, I'll trouble you, Master."
"Please!"
The young monk made a "please" gesture again, indicating Xu Nian to enter first.
Xu Nian couldn't say anything else, and he didn't mean to take off his armor in the temple. He walked into the temple fully armed with a shield in his left hand, a sword in his right hand, a helmet on his head, and armor on his body.
The young monk didn't mean to blame him. Instead, after Xu Nian went in, he followed him in and slowly closed the door.
Xu Nian's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Master, what are you doing by closing the door?"
"Don't misunderstand, benefactor. This mountain is the mountain where the true Buddha appears. To show piety, any outsider who enters this temple should close the door to prevent evil spirits from entering the temple."
"Evil spirits?"
Xu Nian's eyes flashed with a strangeness.
The young monk didn't say anything else, but walked straight to the main hall of the temple.
Xu Nian pondered for a while, and hurried to catch up.
The main hall of the temple is no different from the main hall of the temple before the disaster. It is also solemn and heavy, and has the same plaque with the words "Daxiong Hall".
But what Xu Nian noticed was that there were some monks who were kneeling under the golden statue of the Buddha in the main hall, with their eyes closed and no words.
These monks are basically all old monks with white eyebrows and beards. They all kneel motionlessly on the futon, and no one knows what they are doing.
Xu Nian was so shocked that he couldn't speak. After all, he had just scanned it with his spiritual power, and there was no life in this temple at all.
But now
"Donor, burn incense!"
At this time, the young monk stood beside him without knowing when, and handed him three incense sticks.
Xu Nian took them subconsciously.
The next moment,
the young monk said "Follow me", then prostrated himself on the ground, turned his hands over, and raised his palms upward, as if he was holding the Buddha's feet, with his feet and forehead pressed against the ground, and whispered devoutly: "There is no one like the Buddha in the sky and on the earth, and there is no one like the world in the ten directions. I have seen everything in the world, and there is nothing like the Buddha."
The old monks around seemed to be touched, and they all began to prostrate themselves on the ground in the same way, chanting: "There is no one like the Buddha in the sky and on the earth, and there is no one like the world in the ten directions. I have seen everything in the world, and there is nothing like the Buddha."
Xu Nian was stunned. For a moment, it was not right to hold the three incense sticks and worship, and it was not right to stand.
He was not a fool. With such a weird scene, he didn't know that if he really worshiped, unimaginable terrible things would happen.
But as he hesitated, the young monk turned his head slightly, and his calm face became inexplicably distorted: "Why don't you kneel down?!"
Xu Nian took a step back, threw the incense in his hand to the ground, then looked around the hall and shouted angrily: "You pretender, why don't you get out of here!?"
The hall suddenly fell into deathly silence.
Then, the old monks who were kneeling on the ground and chanting sutras devoutly stood up one by one, and stared at him with blood-red eyes.
Only then did Xu Nian discover that there was a hole in the left chest of these old monks, which was empty and their hearts were missing.
Looking at the young monk again, I don't know when he was standing in front of these old monks, looking at him with strange eyes: "Anyone who disrespects our Buddha will be sent to the eighteenth level of hell."
Xu Nian was startled for a moment, then sneered and charged forward with his sword.
"You're the one who's just pretending to be a fool, so I'll kill you."
As soon as Xu Nian finished speaking, the black sword in his hand had pierced the young monk's body like lightning.
The young monk still maintained a weird smile, clasped his hands and said calmly: "Buddha said, if you don't go to hell, who will."
boom!
Accompanied by a huge roar in his mind.
Xu Nian was horrified to find that the golden body of the Buddha in the main hall moved. It first trembled its fingers, then moved its eyelids. Finally, the whole golden body stood up from the cross-legged posture, took one step to the sky above Xu Nian, and clapped his hands. Down:
"Those who do not respect education should be punished!"
