Familiar small Zen courtyard, familiar Zen room.
The middle-aged monk stepped forward and knocked on the door and said, "Brother, the noble person you mentioned is here."
"You go ahead and ask the disciples not to disturb me tonight. I want a noble person to discuss important matters." The familiar voice of the abbot came from the Zen Master, but it sounded more aged.
I pushed open the door of the Zen room, and there was still a dim lone lamp inside, illuminating the abbot sitting on the couch. "It's been a long time. I heard that the abbot seems to be a little busy lately." I closed the door and then sat down opposite the abbot.
"I dare not neglect the things entrusted by your noble lord. I have already found the abbots of well-known nearby temples and conveyed this crisis to them in the name of a Buddhist seminar. However, there were very few people who responded. Only two temples are old friends. , chose to believe in me, and in the end we all parted ways unhappy." The abbot sighed, his figure even slightly stooped when it was printed on the wall.
It seemed that he was also very worried about this matter, and things did not go as smoothly as expected. But only three are far from enough. The fewer temples that respond, the less manpower can be provided. The survivors who can be saved in the end may also make the same mistakes as I did in that time and space.
"Since we can't persuade the abbots of other temples, we can only resort to danger." My original plan was to let the abbots spread this sense of crisis and let more believers in those temples believe in this. A disaster may strike at any time, and I have to coordinate the entire plan behind my back. It seems that this is quite idealistic.
"What do you mean, noble man?" When the abbot heard that there was another way, he straightened up and listened carefully.
"This is an extraordinary method, and it also has extraordinary effects. However, for Buddhism, it may not be upright and upright, so the abbot does not need to ask more questions. He will find out in a few days." Naturally, I couldn't use this heretical method in my mind. Come, simply don't tell this old monk. The rest is a matter of shelter.
The abbot began to talk about the current progress and plans.
At present, temples can still do these things in the name of construction. As for digging tunnels, they use carved Buddha statues as a cover to package the entire shelter project into underground Buddhist statues for viewing. Of course, in the end, there will naturally be no such Buddha statues. , some will only be the infrastructure that provides people with life. As for the subsequent construction, we have to rely on the abbot's interpersonal relationships in the city. As the saying goes, Buddhism makes good friends, and many businessmen firmly believe in this matter, so it will naturally be much easier to operate. .
The chat lasted until midnight, then I walked out of the Zen room and walked along the mountain road to the top of the mountain, where I had a panoramic view of the mountains. Thousands of houses are brightly lit, and the entire city is rendered in magnificent colors by the lights. However, all living beings do not know that a catastrophe is approaching them. Perhaps enjoying the only good time left now is the right choice.
The early morning dew was blocked by Hariya three feet away. I waited on the top of the mountain until the first ray of sunlight shone on me. From a distance, the whole city is waking up at this moment. There are pedestrians, vehicles and traffic on the road in an endless stream. This is what life looks like.
But what about my life...
I thought of Wen Na, Xiwu and Chaoyang, and the few people who were born and died together in the shelter. They were just a microcosm of the tens of thousands of people... What I do will be salvation. Their avenue.
As soon as I thought about this, I felt like there was no one else but me. Maybe this is my mission.
"Hariya, we are going to play something interesting."
"Come on, people from the early Yuan Dynasty, there are no clouds for us to play in the mountains here. How about we fly farther away and have a look?" Hariya didn't understand the true meaning and thought I wanted to play the game I played in the clouds before.
"Let's play something big this time. Do you remember the river at the bottom of the mountain? We are going to use this river to scare these people today. Only by making them believe that there is a vision from the sky and disaster is coming, will more people Get involved in the work of the refuge." I began to walk slowly down the mountain, passed through several corridors and alleys, and came to the main hall inscribed with "Mainxiong Hall".
Although it is early in the morning, there is already an endless stream of people worshiping devoutly in the main hall. Many people choose to go up the mountain in the morning to offer the first stick of incense to show their sincerity. However, if the Buddha really shows mercy, it is not in the order of offering incense. Come. The road conditions going down the mountain in the morning were the same as those going up the mountain yesterday. People were all going in the opposite direction to me. People walking towards me were trudging hard, and they did not forget to say "Amitabha" several times.
After arriving at the foot of the mountain, I went straight to the moat not far away, which is Hariya's largest home court.
"Hariya, go down and make some noise." I pointed to the slow-flowing river at my feet.
"Sir, Yuanchu people, I don't quite understand. Is it like what we did before?"
"No, on the contrary, you are going to make some big noise this time. As long as you don't hurt the innocent people by the river, you can do whatever you want." I only limited one request to Hariya, hoping that it would not only make it a water elf I can achieve my goal by playing around for a while.
"Understood!" Hariya jumped out of me and into the river, darting through the water like a fish.
"Although this place is not as good as the previous sea, but fortunately the river is very long. You must remember not to hurt the people on the shore!" I remembered the days when Hariya and I were in the boundless underwater world. It has been a long time since we talked about it. .
Starting from my feet on the moat, two waves rippled up and down respectively. Wherever they passed, the water in the moat seemed to become one, like a huge piece of jelly.
I know that this is Hariya using the waves in two directions to confirm whether there are innocent passers-by along the river. Since the entire river will be controlled by Hariya, even if there is an accident, I believe it can handle it. .
"Your Excellency Yuanchu, please be optimistic!" Hariya said to me.
I saw that on the originally calm riverside, the water suddenly stopped flowing, and even the water hyacinths on the river stopped floating downstream.
"Hariya, this is not enough."
"Of course it's not enough, the next step is the highlight." Hariya said confidently.
There were still some waves on the calm river. The water began to flow slowly upstream, and the water hyacinth in front of me was also drifting in the opposite direction. Then there were huge ripples in the water, as if there was a huge fish wagging its tail at the bottom of the river. Oh no, this doesn't look like a fish. The whole river is like a trapped python. The river water is twisting like a python's body, and the splashing waves are splashing on the river bank.
"Your Excellency Yuanchu, how do you like this?" Hariya was a little proud, as if he was waiting for praise.
"This is exactly what I want. If I add a little more noise, it will be even more intimidating!"
"How difficult is this!"
Hariya controlled the condensed round body of the river water and began to roll, and the waves on the water surface became larger. These abnormalities also attracted the attention of the people around them, and they all came to the river to watch this strange scene.
Suddenly, Hariya controlled the body in the water to swim up quickly, and all the water was carried away. People on the shore were exclaiming. I believe this scene will be remembered in their hearts for the rest of their lives.
"What is that thing in the water?"
"The river is flowing backwards, this is an ominous sign!!"
"Could it be that someone did something evil and caused such strange things..."
"Maybe there is a grievance, just like the snow falling in June..."
People on the shore were talking a lot, and they all took out their mobile phones to take pictures of these weird scenes. Some were bold enough to go to the shore to take pictures, while more people were watching from a distance. However, I believe that with the current speed of media, what happened today will surely be known to people soon.
The river water began to churn violently, and the fish in the river were frightened and jumped out of the water, but after falling they were carried away by the current going upstream. There were several sounds like dragon roars from far upstream, which frightened the crowd of onlookers around me. Some people were so frightened that they dropped their mobile phones and quickly picked them up to record the video.
"Sir, Yuanchu, are these last few sounds okay?"
"It smells like that! Let's stop here today. I believe that with this, we can achieve our goal. Let the river water return to normal." I looked at the people in front of me who were discussing passionately. I believe that it won't be long before word spreads. To the ears of the abbots of several temples that the abbot said before.
After the last roar of the dragon, the churning and reverse flow of the river stopped abruptly and returned to its usual state, only the flow rate became faster.
Hariya turned into a stream of water and returned to my body from my feet, and the familiar cold feeling returned.
"Hariya has made a great contribution today. Now we just need to wait for today's matter to ferment before we can start implementing our plan."
"In the early Yuan Dynasty, it was called fermentation?" Hariya asked blankly.
A black car stopped in the distance, and a few people carrying cameras got out of the car. Then two reporters with microphones got out and were interviewing the citizens who had just witnessed the strange phenomenon. The buzzing voices and videos from various angles made the reporters excited. This was a big news front page. The expressions of excitement and joy on their faces made them seem to have completely forgotten the impact of this incident.
"Hariya, while their eyes are in the river now, find a place to send me to the Zen Garden on the top of the mountain." I began to deliberately walk to a sparsely populated place and found a corner.
Hariya wrapped me up, and then used the power of the water as before to transport me from the back side of the mountain to the top of the mountain, where we watched the sunrise.
After landing, I walked along the mountain road to the outside of the abbot's Zen room and gently opened the door.
"Abbott, it's me." I introduced myself.
