Chapter 1609 The Night of Illusion

“Yes, before Hui Cong’s devilish mind awakened, he burned one hundred and eight Buddha lamps in front of the Buddha’s throne in the treasure hall of our temple. The image of the Kalam Mitra Sutra for suppressing demons was stabbed on the back, and my brothers and I were chanting sutras and blessings.”

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Cheng’s expression gradually changed, and Master Guan instantly appeared in his mind. The figure of the ghost, "It's...it's Jialan Bodhisattva..."

After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, emperors of all dynasties took Guan Gong's loyalty as an example of education for loyalty and patriotism, and continued to title Guan Yu "Hou Er Wang," "The king is the emperor, the emperor is the saint, and the saint is the heaven." Guan Gong's status in various sects has also risen again and again. He is worshiped in temples and Taoist temples, among which the Buddhists respect him as Jialan Bodhisattva.

The sacred statue of Jialan Bodhisattva has a wonderful and majestic appearance. Because of its righteousness, it can deter all kinds of evil spirits. Therefore, it and Wei Tuo Bodhisattva are the great protectors of Buddhism. Among them, Jialan Bodhisattva is the right protector and Wei Tuo Bodhisattva is the left protector. , the throne is usually located in the Jialan Hall on the southeast side of the Main Hall of the temple.

"Did you create that Guan Erye just now?"

Recalling the ghost of Guan Erye who was killing everyone with the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, Jiang Cheng's heart couldn't help but twitch violently. Guan Erye's hand When the knife fell, at least a dozen monks were splashed with blood on the spot.

"Amitabha, the donor was frightened." The abbot's voice came from the darkness in front, "But the poor monk said that what the donor saw was all delusion and could not be true."

"Master, you have said so much, and you also said that everything I see tonight is False, is there some contradiction between this and the other? "

At present, Jiang Cheng's eyes are still unable to fully open, and he can only try to stay away from the direction of the master's voice, but fortunately, his eyes are getting better now, that mysterious thing. What was thrown at him was not lime, but incense ashes.

The abbot did not refute, and said in a calm voice: "This is probably not the first time that the donor visited the Gongde Hall at night. The poor monk asked the donor if the monks in the temple were killed at night. Will it hurt the donor to see him again during the day?"

" No, this is what I can't figure out." Jiang Cheng answered truthfully. Regardless of whether what the abbot said was true or false, Jiang Cheng did not intend to break up with him. He was delaying it as long as possible until his eyes could see. arrive.

“The falsehoods spoken by the poor monk and the falsehoods thought by the donor are not completely equivalent. The monks seen by the donor tonight are false, but these falsehoods all originate from the hearts of the monks.”

“The demon-suppressing map that my senior brother and I jointly set up cannot completely suppress the demonic thoughts in Huicong’s heart. The demonic thoughts are now getting stronger and stronger, and there are already A small number broke through the seal, and the evil thoughts that leaked invaded the monks of this temple. The monks that the donor saw tonight were the delusions that grew in the hearts of the monks of this temple."

"Amitabha, not only the monks, but also the monks. The donor, the donor’s friends, and the poor monk tonight are all just delusions in their own minds caused by evil thoughts.”

"It's like a dream, but it's a dream weaved together by all of us, and the person who dreamed it is Huicong." Jiang Cheng hesitated for a few seconds before answering.

"The donor is smart, but not accurate enough. Huicong cannot control such a vain night, it is just the evil thoughts in his heart."

Jiang Cheng nodded slowly, he probably understood, " So this is a The situation is that the demonic thoughts in Huicong's heart are borrowing the hands of the monks in the temple to help it get out of trouble. At every critical moment, when Huicong's original intention is about to be completely eroded, the seal will backfire. Summon Jialan Bodhisattva to kill Is this how it works to drive away evil spirits?”

“That’s true, but I don’t know if the donor has discovered that the Buddha’s image of Kalam Bodhisattva has been completely destroyed, and the killings have been very heavy, and he has even started to attack the donor and others. ." The abbot's voice It became heavier and heavier, and his voice kept trembling, "Because the Bodhisattva has also lost his Buddha mind and has been eroded by Hui Cong's evil thoughts. This seal... is about to be broken!"

"What will happen if the seal is broken? ?”

"There are no humans or animals left within a hundred miles."

"How long does the master think this seal can last?" Jiang Cheng asked.

“Three days at most.”

Jiang Cheng thought about it silently in his mind. According to the difficulty of this mission, it would be difficult for them to leave within three days, so they must solve it if they want to survive. The crisis inside the temple.

"Master's Dharma is profound, and there must be a way to resolve this disaster. I hope he will make it clear." After hearing what the old monk said, Jiang Cheng thought that he might have a way.

"Amitabha, the poor monk believes in fate. The benefactor came to stay at our precepts temple at this time of crisis. He must have a deep connection with Buddha and come to help the people in the world overcome this disaster. His merits are immeasurable."

The abbot said beautifully, But Jiang Cheng didn't want to buy it. His eyes were mostly healed. With the little light coming in from the window, Jiang Cheng continued to step back. He asked a question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time, "Haha, Master, there is something I don't understand. Since you said that everything you saw tonight is false, and this falsehood is all caused by the invasion of demonic thoughts, then I want to ask, How much of what you said in your false mouth, which was invaded by demonic thoughts, is true, and how much of it is false?”

“Also, the master said that my friend and I are both true and false. My friend has also been corrupted by delusions, but I am sober now, and my friends and I have not committed any evil deeds like those of monks such as Hui De Huiming. How can this explain the sudden silence in the darkness? Coming down, Jiang Cheng pulled the fat man back little by little. The sudden silence made people uncontrollably nervous. Just when Jiang Cheng was about to turn around and break open the door and run away, he stopped. The old voice sounded again, "Amitabha, how did the donor think the poor monk lost his sight with these tricks?"

Jiang Cheng couldn't help but pause in his steps. He had to say that this question attracted him, "What? You mean, only blind people can avoid being disturbed by this illusion? Are you blinding yourself?”

The abbot smiled sadly, did not answer the question, and asked instead: "Since the donor firmly believes that everything he sees is true, I would like to ask, don't you think there is anything strange since the donor came to me?"

Jiang Cheng opened his unclear eyes as wide as possible. He felt that everything around here was strange, and it was indescribable weirdness.

"Haha, since the poor monk appeared, the donor's friend has not said a word."

Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then a chill ran from his hands to his feet. Yes, Ever since he spoke to the abbot, the fat man next to him has been silent. What's even more frightening is that he didn't realize this, as if something was influencing him to completely ignore this abnormality.

Jiang Cheng was still holding the fat man's arm, and at this moment, he actually felt that the fat man's arm had become cold, as if what he was holding was not a living person, but a corpse, or maybe Yes...

The next second, a trembling hand stretched out towards Jiang Cheng, touched the back of Jiang Cheng's hand, and then slowly moved on it.

"The fat man is writing..."

Jiang Cheng reacted immediately, but after he realized a little bit what the fat man was writing, Jiang Cheng's whole body began to tremble.

"Run quickly, the talking thing is above your head, and it is looking for us." (End of Chapter)
