In fact, it's a bit rash to even think about it.
I didn't make a rash decision, so I told Uncle Ma about the matter and asked him if it was feasible.
After hearing this, Uncle Ma's eyes suddenly lit up and he said to me: "Silly boy, of course you have to go for such a good opportunity. The Immortal who can be trapped in the temple must be very capable. If you can get his help , everything you do in the future will be done with twice the result with half the effort.”
I expressed my concerns, "Uncle Ma, isn't this a bit rash? We don't know whether the Celestial Immortal is good or bad, good or evil. Besides, what will happen if he is discovered?"
A few days ago, the monk drove away the python fairy that possessed the old lady with a palm of his hand. It can be seen that there are eminent monks in Kek Lok Temple, so we must be cautious.
Uncle Ma still didn't care and said: "Xiaofan, you are good at everything, but you are too cautious. There is no good or evil in this world, it is just a different stance. And now is a society governed by the rule of law. Even if you lift a floor tile in the Hall of Merit, Can those monks still beat you to death?"
I shook my head: "Uncle Ma, you misunderstood. I'm not afraid of trouble. My parents are gone, and my family is gone. I'm not afraid of anything by myself, but I'm always a little repelled by the idea of going out. , I don’t want to provoke you too much.”
Uncle Ma said: "You are wrong. The fate of a disciple has been determined by fate. I have seen many people who are more stubborn than you. Mother Hu was not willing to join the army at first. What happened next? The child was miscarried and her husband died. I also suffered a serious illness and was taken to the underworld for a tour. I came back and followed this path with all my heart. Remember, every disciple has to go through a lot of hardships before he can stand out, but the more you escape, the more hardships you will face. There will be more.”
I thought about it and asked Uncle Ma, what exactly is my three-year disaster?
Uncle Ma refused to say anything this time. He just smiled at me and said: "Believe it or not, every step you take now, the Xian family is actually helping you to prepare for the disaster. But If you continue to struggle, even the gods will not be able to save you."
Uncle Ma's words strengthened my determination and also touched me greatly.
My resistance to the road of horseback riding actually stems from the deep-rooted ideas I had in my childhood.
I remember that when my grandfather was still alive, he often told his parents to try not to let their children take the road of horses in the future, otherwise their lives would be ruined, and they would not be reincarnated after death, and would not be able to be reincarnated, which would be miserable.
These words have caused a great psychological shadow on me. For me, I can survive any hardships and ups and downs, but I cannot accept that I will not be reincarnated after death.
Previously, I quietly asked Hu Ma whether Chuma Xian would not enter reincarnation after death. She did not answer me directly, but pointed to the Monument King Leader and several Qingfeng Ghost Leaders on the entrance of her hall.
She said that many of the ghosts and immortals in the hall are very good.
This is tantamount to hinting to me that Chuma Immortal really does not enter reincarnation after death. He will become a ghost immortal and catch his younger brother Ma to continue practicing.
Maybe I was thinking about it day by day and dreaming at night. I had been thinking about the problem after Ma Xian's death that day, and as a result, I had a very scary dream at night.
I dreamed that I came to a dark and gloomy world, surrounded by mist. Looking around, I saw a dark army in front of me.
There were densely packed ancient soldiers, with black flags looming in the mist. At a rough glance, there were at least a thousand men and horses.
Under a black flag at the front, there is a big black horse, with a general in black helmet and black armor sitting on it, with a long sword slung around his waist.
Since there was almost no light around, I couldn't see the man's face, but I could clearly feel a very strong pressure on him.
Even in a dream, looking at each other from a distance is enough to make me feel tight in my chest, difficulty breathing, and my whole body is firmly suppressed by that kind of power.
When I finally woke up from my dream, I was covered in cold sweat.
This dream left a deep impression on me, and the black-armored general made me very puzzled.
Who is he and why do I dream about him?
Three days later, I came to Kek Lok Temple as scheduled and went to Merit Hall with Zhang Wenwen.
Before entering the Hall of Merit, I secretly thought to myself, if I really have a fate with that Celestial Immortal, and after saving him, he can still keep me safe, then it will be considered a period of good karma and good results.
If God destined me not to save him, then don't let me succeed today. At worst, let the monk drive me out, and there is no loss.
Maybe this world is really small. Just when I walked into Merit Hall, I saw a familiar figure in the crowd in front of me.
It's He Yuchen.
She should have come alone, but she didn't come alone.
When I saw her, I found that she was accompanied by several immortals, but they were all well hidden. She herself was hiding in a corner, probably because she was afraid of attracting attention.
I don’t know why she brought the Immortal Family here, but in my impression, the Kek Lok Temple is now relatively exclusive of the Ma Xian Family, otherwise it would not have blocked the Fox Immortal Cave and sealed the Fox Immortal Hall.
Among those immortals, I saw a tall man with a very unique aura, which was different from other immortals. I could clearly feel that the yin energy in him was very strong.
When I walked into Merit Hall, he glanced at me.
But the moment I looked up, he disappeared.
I didn't know at that time that this man was the leader of the Monument King at the entrance of He Yuchen Hall, as Uncle Ma had said.
I didn't say hello to He Yuchen, pretending not to see him, and stood with Zhang Wenwen to the west of the Merit Hall, ready to find an opportunity to save the Immortal.
But there were a lot of staff around, and there were also some monks walking back and forth.
Many people may think that calling a monk directly seems a bit disrespectful. In fact, in Buddhism, monk is an honorific title. For example, the abbot of a temple is generally called a great monk.
I didn't act rashly, and Zhang Wenwen didn't know what I was going to do. She was very pious and stood in front calmly waiting for the ceremony to begin.
After a while, the abbot of the temple came and the ceremony officially began.
The great monk said a lot of things that day, but I basically didn't remember them because I was focused on saving the Immortal.
But there are only a few words that I still keep in mind.
He said: "Today's Dharma conference is very special, because I know that many of you are not here because you yearn for Buddhism. But you have all kinds of sentient beings in your body, and they all hope to have the opportunity." It’s good to listen to the Dharma.”
"A mouse next to the Buddha can listen to the sutras and gain enlightenment. Therefore, this Dharma conference opens the door to convenience. Regardless of monsters and ghosts, as long as they are dedicated to the Buddha, they can come and listen."
Only then did I understand why He Yuchen brought the Xian family here.
It turned out that I came here specifically to listen to the scriptures and the Dharma.
And only for today's Dharma gathering, all living beings and spirits are allowed to enter, otherwise the Buddhist guardians will take action to drive them away.
The ceremony officially begins.
I listened absentmindedly for a few minutes, then quietly moved my steps, testing the west wall of the Hall of Merit to see which floor tile would hold the Thousand-Year-Old Immortal.
After searching for a few minutes, I finally discovered the clue.
The floor of this merit hall is covered with ordinary gray floor tiles, but there is only one floor tile, although it is also gray, it has a lotus printed on it.
As soon as my heart moved, I squatted down here. When no one was paying attention, I took out the screwdriver I had prepared and started to pry the floor tiles.
I thought I had to dig out an entire floor tile, but just after prying it a few times, I suddenly heard a voice in my ear.
"Stop picking, there's surveillance on it."
