Chapter 261 The out-of-control Guanyin Chanyuan
Guanyin Chanyuan.
The mountains in the cave are layer upon layer, and the blue sky has no impurities.
The temples are scattered among the mountains. The buildings are separated by a distance, and the decorations are obviously slightly different.
Especially the walls of various temples are outlined with countless complicated Sanskrit inscriptions.
Bang.
The soil breaks open and plant roots grow out.
The mountain wind whistled by.
The rhizome quietly blended into the environment, the vegetation swayed, and in the blink of an eye, a man appeared on the spot without causing any waves.
“Uh.”
Shen Lian groaned and could feel the invisible taboo enveloping him.
The taboo has not affected the body and soul, nor has it brought any strangeness, but there is an indescribable weirdness, and the three hearts are beating rapidly.
Shen Lian did not dare to neglect and quickly checked inside his body.
He noticed that he had some hidden injuries from the previous encounter with the incarnation of Guanyin. Although it was not serious, it would inevitably require hard work to recover.
As a result, as soon as I came to Guanyin Temple, the hidden wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Shen Lian frowned slightly and glanced at the career panel with his peripheral vision.
“Wait.”
He opened his arm with his fingers, and the bones were visible in the narrow wound. Then under the influence of taboo, there was only a white mark left for a few breaths.
[The profession of "Free Novice" has been triggered, but cannot take up the job without the necessary conditions]
The profession that the taboo triggers is obviously related to Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Shen Lian frowned tightly.
This was the first time he encountered that the effect of taboo was positive, and it could actually repair his own injuries, with almost no disadvantages.
Tabu did not take advantage of the opportunity to repair his injuries and do anything to his body and soul.
“According to the records of the imperial court, Guanyin Temple is ranked among the top three most dangerous places. The problem is that there are such taboos surrounding the cave that it would be difficult to commit suicide. Why?”
Shen Lian looked around and found that he was on the outskirts of Guanyin Temple.
Not far away is a deserted temple, where a few monks can be seen cleaning up fallen leaves, even though not even half a leaf can be seen in the backyard.
From the appearance of the monks, we can tell that they were originally alchemists from other caves, and they were probably brought by the incarnation of Guanyin forcibly.
Their expressions were numb and they were chanting scriptures.
Even if he noticed Shen Lian, the monk showed no extra emotion and just repeated the cleaning work like an ascetic.
“Weird.”
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes, Guanyin Temple was calmer than he imagined.
I have never noticed the presence of demons, and there are no traces of demons.
As soon as he arrived at Guanyin Temple, Yunling Daoying became extremely active, as if the opportunity to condense the golden body was just around the corner.
Shen Lian suspected that it was related to the weird and inexplicable taboo.
“Try it.”
He raised the wine gourd and poured out a drop of crystal clear wine.
The wine is brewed from the pulp of [Accomplishing the Heared Method]. Once consumed, one can comprehend the method by visualizing anything in a short period of time.
【Dawu Wine】
【Brewed from ghost gourd, taking one drop can put the consciousness in a state of enlightenment, and it will last for seven days before the medicine is exhausted. 】
A total of five drops of Dawu wine are brewed from the Zhenjing Danguo. If there is no harvest for a month, we can only use other methods to try to deduce the longevity pile.
After realizing that the wine had entered his throat, Shen Lian's consciousness suddenly became extremely clear.
When he focused on the taboo, he couldn't help but have mysterious and mysterious thoughts, and the contents of the longevity stake were overwhelming in his mind.
It didn’t take long for the longevity pile’s movement route to appear slightly different.
Shen Lian did not rush to revise, but secretly kept the different contents in mind, and then made a complete decision when there was more space.
“The taboo should come from the body of Guanyin Bodhisattva.”
"Unfortunately, it is difficult to innovate the longevity pile just by visualizing the taboos. You must directly witness the real secrets of Guanyin Temple..."
Shen Lian had just had the idea when he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening.
"Amitabha."
An old monk walked out of the temple not far away and was inspecting the damage on the wall. He couldn't help but feel happy when he saw Shen Lian standing still.
“It’s getting dark, donor, come in quickly!”
"I heard that Guanyin Zen Temple is going to build two new temples. You must have entered the cave by mistake. You don't have time to be stunned. Let's settle down first."
The old monk is skinny and skinny, and his withered face has a hint of Buddha. The mana revealed was so rich that it was estimated to be at the first or second level of Dao Ying.
After Shen Lian approached, the old monk couldn't help but shake his head and muttered: "Mortal? How could Elder Jinchi let a mortal come to Guanyin Temple..."
"That's all, the old monk's Dharma name Jingwu, what do you call me?”
“Shen Lian”
"It seems that you entered by mistake. Elder Jinchi didn't even give you a Dharma name."
Jingwu shook his head helplessly, pulled Shen Lian into the temple, closed the door heavily, and carefully blocked it with wooden bolts. live.
"Shen Lian, if you have the chance to meet Elder Jinchi, you can ask him for a Dharma name."
"Yes."
Shen Lian can't move After looking around, I discovered that the temple plaque was clearly engraved with three words [Black Wind Temple], and I couldn't help but think of the black bear spirit, also known as the Black Wind Monster.
Elder Jinchi is also a familiar name from the original work. In the original work, the abbot of Guanyin Temple is Elder Jinchi. He is obviously an ordinary mortal, but he has lived to be 270 years old.
In an attempt to embezzle the cassocks, he set fire to kill Tang Monk, but ended up burning down the temple at his own peril.
The weird thing is that Guanyin Temple is a temple dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva, but there are a large number of profound demons living nearby. The black bear spirit even calls Elder Jinchi a brother.
To be honest, even if the black bear spirit is devoted to Buddha, it is impossible to make friends with food, right?
"There are five people in Black Wind Temple. Don't leave the temple no matter day or night. Everything is waiting for Elder Jinchi to give orders."
"I understand."
Jingwu nodded with satisfaction and then spoke. He said: "Let me teach you an internal skill. Get started as soon as possible. Otherwise, when Elder Jinchi has something important to do, you won't be able to help the temple solve it."
As he spoke, he took out a yellowed volume from his arms. of classics.
Shen Lian took it easily, only to find that the classic was the familiar [Xiong Zhen Jing], but the content contained many unfamiliar and difficult Buddhist scriptures.
"If you don't understand, then come and ask me. Try to get started within fifteen days, no, ten days."
Shen Lian became more and more fearful and tentatively asked the old monk about the Guanyin Temple. As a result, the latter deliberately evaded the important points.
The rest of the monks were indifferent.
Apart from cleaning the courtyard, they just sat blankly in front of the side hall door, stuffing moldy steamed buns into their mouths, as if waiting for something.
Shen Lian did not ask further questions. The feeling that Guanyin Temple gave him became more and more confusing.
And he suspected that there might be a second force sneaking into the Guanyin Temple. After all, the death of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was most likely man-made.
Once the Hundred-Eyed Demon King dies, he can sneak into the cave with the help of the incarnation of Guanyin he attracted.
Jingwu introduced Black Wind Temple while walking.
The two side halls are residences, and daily practice is in the main hall.
Shen Lian came to the door of the main hall, then he stopped and looked at the statue facing him with burning eyes.
The statue looks like Guanyin Bodhisattva, but it is very old.
The glass body is bumpy and bumpy, but the appearance can still be seen to be solemn. It embraces a pure vase of willow branches, and is decorated with various gemstones to decorate the statue.
Shen Lian's soul shimmered, and the longevity pile was about to be reborn.
As the understanding deepened, the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva became weird and inexplicable. The gold-plated body surface looked like living human skin. The most important thing was that there was a tiny crack in the abdomen of the statue.
Shen Lian was stunned. Who would have thought that the body of Guanyin Bodhisattva is hollow.
It was like his internal organs were being ripped out.
Jingwu stared at the absent-minded Shen Lian with a smile on his face, "If you can learn the secret from the statue, it will be better than Xiong Zhenjing. You can go to Batu Caves on my behalf earlier."
Shen Lian came back to his senses and already understood the method in his mind.
[Bone Shaping and Flesh Filling Sutra (Incomplete)]
[After taking Dawu wine, Shen Lian visualized the skin of Guanyin Bodhisattva and realized that this is one of the basic methods of shaping the golden body. 】
"Skin?"
Obviously, the statue was left behind after the Guanyin Bodhisattva shed its skin.
Jingwu placed a plate of white-faced steamed buns next to Shen Lian, "Shen Lian, your wing is in the northwest corner of the second side hall. Eat more, eat more like them."< br>
Shen Lian took the steamed buns and secretly used his wisdom, but the result was just ordinary steamed buns.
As the sky became darker and darker, the monks in Black Wind Temple didn't know why, but fear showed in their eyes, and they began to eat steamed buns crazily.
After a long time, the moon hung high.
There were footsteps in the darkness from far to near, and soon they arrived in front of the Black Wind Temple.
Dong-dong-dong.
Shen Lian did not notice anyone outside the temple. The so-called Elder Jinchi seemed amorphous, and it was difficult to perceive reality through ordinary means.
Jingwu quickly moved closer to listen.
A hoarse voice sounded, "Heifeng Temple sent three people to go to Batu Cave along the east path to worship the true king. They can return after dawn."
"Elder Jinchi, it's me, Jingwu, I don't know Is there anything you should pay attention to?"
Elder Jinchi murmured: "The monks in the White Flower Hall are missing, and Lord White Flower has not been worshiped for many days. If they encounter Lord White Flower in Batu Cave, they must be practicing Zen. Refining alchemy.”
At this point, Elder Jinchi’s voice became extremely sharp.
“Remember, remember!”
"Zhen Xiong is fond of Buddhist scriptures and is not allowed to enter Batu Cave empty-handed!!!"
"Zhen Xiong is wearing a cassock. If Xiong does not have a cassock, immediately confirm whether there is Zhen Baihua in the alchemy furnace. The corpse of Baiyan Zhenjun!”
“If you encounter one of them on the way, go to Baiyan Temple immediately!” br>Elder Jinchi read word by word, full of malice.
"Elder Jinchi, there is an extra monk in Black Wind Temple. May I ask his name..."
At this time, the sound of bells echoed in the center of Guanyin Temple.
Elder Jinchi ignored Jingwu and disappeared in front of the Black Wind Temple.
Shen Lian frowned. There seemed to be a large number of demons in Guanyin Temple. It always felt like Guanyin Bodhisattva was recruiting demons as disciples.
Jing Wu changed his friendly face and urged the three people beside him.
"You guys get out! Follow Elder Jinchi's instructions and go to Batu Caves. The old man asked about tonight's taboos and has done his best."
He opened his mouth, and a faint spiritual light emitted from the Tao Ying in his body.
The three of them could not help but be bewitched by the secret technique, and they stood up and left the Black Wind Temple.
Jing Wu sneered and swept across the courtyard. The cultivation level of Daoying Seventh Realm was higher than that of Heifeng Temple. The other two returned to the wing to rest.
Shen Lian continued to visualize the statue.
